Aka “Windows subsystem for Linux”

Also this classic xkcd

Oh no. Are you telling me that an xkcd numbered in the 2000s is a “classic” now? Yikes

So the problem here is this.

1. Imagine that you have terminal cancer, but you’re not a famous virologist.
2. Somebody comes along and offers you untested, experimental treatment injections for the low, low price of $75,000.
3. Gofundme.

I’ve seen exactly that type of scenario play out with my own relatives. It’s a good reason why medical treatments marketed to the public should be proven to be safe and effective.

Even if you do have an MMU, there’s no guarantee that you’ll get a segmentation fault from a memory bug. You can still just get the weird side effects, if you fail to access the incorrect memory.

Undefined behaviour means exactly that. You have no idea what you could get.

Are “fat bikes” the over powered electric motorcycles? 'Cause we got problems with those in the United States, too.

Once upon a time, straight outta school, I wrote up solutions to problems from the Serway physics book. For Chegg. $5 per problem.

Fuck Chegg.

Ice cream is always about churning air into cream. But nowadays the air ratio has definitely gone up. Seemingly across the board.

And that assumes that you’re not buying a brand that has gotten into the fakery.

DLR trains do, and several airport trains.

Some London Underground lines have drivers that only intervene in the automatic operation of the train in an emergency or abnormal condition.

And they are all welcome back if they can satisfy the Linux Foundation that they’re not affiliated with a sanctioned entity on the SDN list.

Oh they really did. Except because it was the 90s it was real analog closed circuit television, and nothing was wireless.

It was the one piece of NASA training that you just graded yourself on.

This is exactly how NASA built the Space Shuttle Toilet Simulator.

Compare with the yearly release cycle on cars.

Like any other convention, it’s not really a big deal either way. Fortran gets along just fine with 1-indexing.

TerminateProcess() is pretty reliable, but it doesn’t form part of the C signals stack on Windows like kill -9. So for instance, if you’re doing process control on Python, you need to use a special Windows-only API to access TerminateProcess().

It’s not clear if they properly matched the Reynolds numbers and other similarity parameters to properly make this comparison.

Would a fork be technically viable if Americans and American businesses can’t participate (because the fork works with SDN entities)? Maybe.

The reality is that the Linux Foundation is in the United States, and Linus is a naturalized US citizen who lives in Oregon (at least on Wikipedia). So they both will have to pay attention to avoid transacting business with individuals and companies on the SDN list. That is the law in the United States.

802.11ax, clients just… (essentially) wait for a random amount of time, listen for a break in the signal, and take a leap of faith.

Ethernet originally worked the same way, back when it competed directly against token ring. Ethernet won by being as reliable in real world scenarios while being cheaper to build out. Gigabit Ethernet was the first standard that insisted on full duplex only.

Half duplex mode with the collision avoidance is still actively supported for 10/100, but it is becoming very hard to find an unswitched hub. So you may have to write up your own twisted pair cables.

Those people are almost as bad as the junior devs that are very confidently incorrect.
