Nah this is pretty concrete. There's a flat screen single player game in active development with features being added like vehicle physics, surface temperatures, NPC AI handling for non standard gravity, etc. And there are half life related strings all through it. HL3? Who knows, but it would explain why they actually acknowledged their two anniversaries...

We also found that, unlike similar US studies, there was no significant bias against female students. In fact, there was some evidence of positive bias, or preference, for female students.

And then, in the caption:

Our study found academics did not discriminate against potential candidates based on gender.

Some mild irony there

But in seriousness, really good to see this quantified, but sadly not a huge surprise

Them being able to offer this service, and them proxying 30% of the internet are completely unrelated. Any other company could offer this scrape protection if they wanted, with roughly the same cost of entry.

You can hate cloudflare all you like, but only a certified dumbass would try to pretend this feature is somehow enabled by their market dominance...

New Zealander here. A lot of the lower limits being rolled back were specifically targeting school zones. This is genuinely about children's safety

One of the things I loved about Reddit was the super niche experts dropping into the comment section. I'm so glad Lemmy has this too.

I clicked that link and the first dozen results were Reddit posts and garbage

To answer your question without being a dickhead: The given x indicates the point on the curve you need to find the slope at. In other words, find the derivative and then evaluate that function at the given x.

Loved my QC25s until they broke. The new versions are a pain to keep charged...

If rust code relies on a C API (as it necessarily does), then a breaking change to the API requires changing that rust code. This is common sense.

If a process is set up for deferring rust maintenance to a rust developer, this can only last as long as rust maintainers are willing to staff it.

If C developers are unwilling to accept any risk of needing to touch rust code in the future, then rust contributions should not have been allowed in the first place.

Allowing rust contributions and then imposing restrictions on what can be done with it? That's not reasonable.

Mocked up a super rough example to try this: https://metronope.bickio.me/

Yeah I'll code this up today and send you a link

 

Not sure how this will be received in this community. Happy to remove if it's not a good fit.
