He's anything but stupid, he is also human, makes mistakes (like you) and the last time I checked he was working on AI for years now so, yeah, he's probably going to gravitate towards "AI good" instead of "AI took my job".

You are wrong, Pascal has always allowed pure raw pointer and data manipulation as well as self memory management, the strong type enforcement and auto management for some types (strings, dynamic arrays) is just on the surface so you don't shoot yourself in the foot but it never stops you from doing any low level programming.

sounds like it's designed to be that way, yes.

They announce the product but you can't even pre-order it, a typical pi experience.

I used to have a lot of cavities due to poor oral hygiene, after I had a complications with my wisdom tooth, I really decided to step up my game and take care of my teeth. Brush 3 times per day, 15 minutes after every meal. Floss two times per day. Reduce soda intake. Reduce sugar intake.

Cavity free for 4 years now. I switched dentist and after several visists she accused me of seeing another dentist because I didn't have any new cavities. Anyway ...

> I think, much like even-versioned releases of Delphi -- which were famously half-baked and buggy, and you'd inevitably end up dealing with a confluence of bugs until the odd-released version came out a year or two later

I still remember, like some XE(n) version had a really unstable ide/debugger and they didn't even bother fixing it, you had to wait till the next version was released (and you had to pay for it) for the bug to be fixed. There was even some guy that decompiled the ide and offered free fixes online for some more annoying bugs.

nothing magic about Result keyword, it's just an implicit pointer, you can avoid it completely by using explicit pointers.

Imho if cpu manufacturers figure out how to slap a large cache on the same die (something like amd 3D V-Cache but much more) we may actually see graphic cards become obsolete in favor of software rendering.

I just took apart my unit CP1300EPFCLCD and it indeed has the yellow silicone. There's also a lot of white silicone but only to keep wires in place.

My solution is to just inspect the unit every once a year to see if any yellow glue is turning brown just like in the video. Meh ...

Edit: A closer look showed that some parts of the glue already turned brown. It seems to be affected by heat because the parts that are brown are the parts making direct contact with the board/components.

no it doesn't. It just shows the location where you can find the glue. How do you actually remove it? Do you soke it in ethanol and pick it apart or how ?

so how do you go about removing/cleaning that glue?

true, surge protectors are actual snake oil. 99% of people get em thinking it will protect em from lightning strikes ...

How do you achieve the X <= 10 ms switching capacity? You need this if you actually want your equipment to survive the power outage.

Also, I'm extremely sensitive to humm noise output by inverters so I can only tolerate UPSs that have that "Green mode" option which (I guess?) powers directly from AC when under quality power but still provides protection.
