🚨🗣 Vozinha on Lionel Messi:
"When I am an old man, I will tell my Grandchildren bedtime stories about how their Grandfather played against the greatest player of all time" 🇦🇷🇨🇻
Only a low IQ non-technical person thinks that a wireless sensor inside a ball with a shitty polling rate that is kicked around for hours is precise enough within low millisecond range to register a string of hair on the ball’s surface, yet magically immune to the pressure wave of someone missing it by 2mm and do all of this over the air in real time across hundreds of meters.
It's an accelerometer. It picks up vibrations and pressure changes from EVERYTHING nearby, even it hitting an insect in the air, then FIFA decides which spike counts as a ‘touch’.
Simon Peyton Jones (Co-creator of Haskell): "Why is the Internet so insecure? Primarily because all of our software infrastructure is written in unsafe languages like C.
If we'd written all of our Internet software and operating Systems in Haskell, 99% of all these exploits would be removed by construction.
It's like we've built a boat out of paper clips, and we're surprised if it's leaky. You shouldn't build boats out of paperclips, right, because they have holes in them. But then it's too late.
So we spend incredible amounts of human ingenuity and effort patching the holes in our boat built of paper clips. It's tragic."
For years, the Irish Police (the Garda Siochana) considered Prawo Jazdy as one of the most prolific offenders in the country with more than 50+ traffic related offenses. The case was later dropped when it was established that Prawo Jazdy meant Driver's License in Polish.
Очень грустная новость...
Ушёл из жизни Владимир Борисович Синицын.
Честно говоря, сейчас даже трудно представить просмотр снукера без его комментариев.
Светлая память. Искренние соболезнования родным и близким. 🕯️
@artcovenwitch Нет, это была контринтуитивная и отвратительная хрень, буквально худшее, что можно придумать. По многим причинам – от невозможности контро��ировать толком усилие и проблемой с мертвой точкой до того, что эту тормозную муфту (?) на моем велосипеде несколько раз просто клинило.
Представьте, что вам присылают вакансию в духе «разработчик алгоритмов отмера 4 литров воды с помощью целочисленных ведер на 3 и 5 литра», и даже непонятно, почему ровно это и может быть можно как-то иначе эти 4 литра отмерить? А мне и представлять не надо)
Кстати, на собеседовании на сеньорного разработчика задаём вопрос типа "есть два ведра 3 и 5 литров, надо отмерить ровно 4 литра" и такие же для разогрева, СПРАВЛЯЮТСЯ НЕ ВСЕ
If you think about it, a fully mechanical car can be driven to any position on a piece of infinite tape. It can leave marks by spinning out its tires. The driver can follow instructions regarding where to drive based on the tire marks.
Every car is a computer.
