Imagine an oral c++ algorithms and data structures exam

This isn't just essays, AI will happily output any known algorithm you ask for in a few seconds. CS coursework can be almost entirely automated in many cases



Split across all countries the satellite flies over, proportional to the amount of time spent over each country

Good luck


I see a lot of these posts about how Tesla UI (and touchscreens in cars in general) are unsafe and cause accidents. Intuitively it makes sense, but I haven't actually seen any evidence that Teslas or other touchscreen-heavy cars are actually involved in more accidents per mile. Would be curious if there's any studios on this to back up these claims, or is everyone just making intuitively true claims without evidence?


A simple search of twitter for "cisgender" shows that the word is not banned


Searching for it is the only way you can find the word, because tweets containing the word are "reach-limited" (and appropriately labelled to the author, so they are discouraged from using that "slur" ever again).


worth pointing out that banned and visibility limited in certain scenarios are not the same thing, which might be causing some confusion in this thread.


I think you'd struggle to find a human on this planet that isn't biased one way or another when it comes to Musk


+1

I'm anywhere between indifferent and disgusted by Musks political views, depending on the issue.

Does that make me bearish on Tesla? Absolutely not. On the contrary I'm more bullish now than ever. I see so many people lose all objectivity and reason when they look at any Musk enterprise because they don't like the man


> when Postgres picks a stupid plan and can't be convinced to do something reasonable.

In my experience it can always be convinced to make a reasonable plan, but it's not always trivial. Sometimes it's just adding an index, sometimes it's entirely rewriting a query


Agreed. I've found this setting to be difficult: https://postgresqlco.nf/doc/en/param/default_statistics_targ...

Too low == bad query plan. Oddly, too high == bad query plan.


There's also "the query plan you want won't do what you expect, so I'm giving you the next best thing until you tell me the right way to store the data": https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39311536


"Lay-off means that they are laying off people regardless of their performance as a change in their strategy"

Sure, if a whole team or department is let go. If 10% of a team is cut though it won't be by random dice roll


ok, but if you cut down 10% of mount Everest, you still have a mountain.

being the bottom 10% of the top 10% means you're what, 91%.


"Despite the fact that anyone can edit any page"

This couldn't be further from the truth. Anything even slightly controversial or popular is heavily gated
