  • I bet the Pro uses Thunderbolt, and the regular is USB 2 speeds. Just my gut feeling. “You can hook up the pro to our special version of Logic Pro and edit directly on your phone! You can maybe move a your music library over to the non-pro in about 4 hours.”

  • Hash the image, then assign hash ranges to servers that are part of the ring. You’d use RAFT to get consensus about who is responsible for which ranges. I’m largely just envisioning the Scylla gossip replacement as the underlying communications protocol.

  • Eh… As long as it’s an indoor cat, it’s likely fine. University of Minnesota did a study on this early on in the pandemic.

    You’re liable to give your pets COVID, but they don’t seem super troubled by it at this moment, and optimizations that arrived with Omicron to increase spread in humans actually dropped spread in companion animals.

    I expect as what should now be considered HCoV-SARS-2 optimizes more and more for the human tissue, cross over will get increasingly uncommon.

  • China can make the machines they’re buying. The tech isn’t too hard.

    EUV on the other hand needed several billions of dollars, years of research, and three US Department of Energy Labs to develop, then investment in optics from the EU.

    The US asked the Dutch government to stop selling China tech that the US government licensed to them.

  • Go ask Red Hat for their sources.

    EDIT: I’m a Linux Performance Engineer with 15 years under my belt and I use a Mac as my daily driver. Including when I gasp interface with Linux computers because it’s always a combination of ssh and configuration management of some form. Telling me that Mac users don’t use vim is, on its face, one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard. It’s a text based interface. I could do it with Windows, but I’m faster on Macs.

  • The source of COVID is likely China’s $60 billion dollar+ fur industry, and that is the reason they don’t want anyone looking. I’d bet if they did analysis, ancestors of COVID are found in the bats in Suning County, which is fairly close to Wuhan and one of the largest fur markets on the planet. The raccoon dogs that were sold at the market in Wuhan were likely animals with poor fur coats (because they were sick) and sent to butcher rather than being skinned for their fur. China’s fur industry requires vast tracts of land clearance since one of the primary furs, which is mink are obligate carnivores, so they need a supply of meat. The land clearance forces the horseshoe bats to roost in the barns with the animals that include minks and raccoon dogs. It explains every aspect of that the lab leak theory fails to address, with the two lineages, the genetic clock starting in October, and even why it spilled over to people in the time period that it did

  • Eh… You may want to talk to your vet before switching your dog’s food suddenly. I learned the hard way that my dog’s allergic to everything and has violent diarrhea when exposed to food she’s unfamiliar with. It’s like white people and Taco Bell.

  • RAR != ZIP.

    Fell free to read a stack overflow about that situation

    Your choices are basically “rewrite the entire file” or “leave the original file in place, do an append and try and hide the old file.”

    Editing old data in most streaming file formats with inline metadata is basically impossible because they compact the data as much as possible and internally refer to offsets.

    Appending is trivial, editing is very hard if not downright impossible.

  • … You can’t edit files inside a zip file. The program’s just hiding that it’s decompressing and decompressing the whole thing every time you change something.

    Zip files are usually just another wrapper around DEFLATE, and compressing each block requires knowledge of the previous block’s compression (Part of LZ77). It’s a streaming format, not a sparse format.
