In Python, self is not a keyword, it’s a conventional variable name. You can replace all instances of “self” with “this” and your code will work the same.

This story does make me worried though, that this is the case where they were caught, and there are many more where they weren’t caught.

1 kills you because you need some fat to live

In response to your spoiler:

I specifically didn’t like that scene because it’s a massive departure from the lore of all the other films. If they could just do that, why haven’t both sides been doing that all the time? Is it supposed to be that this group is the first group to try this, with the tech that has been around for at least a few centuries? If they had all died in the process I’d be more ok with that, although that also seems like a departure from how hyperspace works in the other films.

The treaty isn’t the technology, it’s the result of people much better informed on the topic considering the scenario you are asking about.

The technology is the hypothetical anti-ballistic missiles.

I’ve seen similar toys described as an “escape room in a box”

I very frequently have problems where I ask Siri “Hey Siri, play X from the album Y by Z”, and Siri goes “Ok! Playing A by B!”

“It’s fine if it’s in a bag and off or silent” has been cell phone policy in my experience (decades ago).

• literally any foss player vs. what MS offers - be it VLC, SMPlayer, MPV, anything is better than windows built in crap

FFMPEG is an open source command line tool and software library for audio and video encoding. You’ll find it mentioned in the credits of just about any video playing software ever, but you can also just go use it for free.

For the most part it’s best to use system provided sorting implementations, but somebody has to write those implementations, so every once in a while somebody needs to do it (in practice by looking up a reference implementation of course).

But also it’s good to understand things like big O scaling and why we use quicksort rather than a naive insertion sort and when to use quick sort vs merge sort or some other form of stable sort.

This is the plot of Horizon Zero Dawn

I looked into building my own keyboard, and then realized there are some excellent hobbyist tier keyboards that are 99% of what I would have wanted from building myself for like 30% of the cost.

I’m using the Hexgears Gemini Dawn right now, and I’m quite happy with it, but if I were to get a new one today I might go with something that supports QMK like the Massdrop CTRL.

The main 2 features I look for are hot-swappable switches and programmable firmware. Personally I like an aluminum frame and look for that as well.

You’ll pay about $100 for a prebuilt vs like $500 for building it yourself

Are you confusing CRF with CBR?

CRF is the video equivalent of VBR music. The music equivalent of two-pass video encoding is ABR music.

When tuned for a specific file, CRF and two-pass video will give similar results. They both result in a variable bitrate encoding.

When using the same config on different files, you might find that two-pass encoding produces unnecessarily large files for something with little movement like anime, or has quality issues for something with a lot of movement like a lot of shaky camera or film grain. Meanwhile the same CRF setting will work well in just about any scenario, using more bitrate for files that need it, and less bitrate for files that don’t.

2 pass encoding is only to get the benefits of variable bit rate when targeting a specific file size. If you don’t have a specific file size in mind, that’s what CRF is for.

Grab a box full and test a bunch until you find one that works well for your use case. That way you end up with a resistor that’s much better than the rated tolerance you’d get if you just grabbed one resistor at random.

And the entertainment systems crash and bug out all the time so I sure hope the more important systems are developed more thoroughly lol

I’ve used multiprocessing to squeeze more performance out of numpy and scipy. But yeah, resorting to multiprocessing is a sign that you should be dropping into something like Rust or a C variant.

Of the ways you listed the only one that will actually take advantage of a multi core CPU is multiprocessing

2 although 6 is also pretty good from my experience.

His first term also started with restrictions on legal immigrants. But it’s much, much, much worse this time around.
