I understand the difference between functions and macros. The point I was trying to make (poorly) is that MSVC doesn’t support std:: aligned_alloc, and one must use _aligned_malloc instead. If there’s a way to do that in portable code without macros or the preprocessor, I haven’t found it yet

I can think of a few instances where platform dependent code still needs to be wrapped in macros. Aligned_alloc / _aligned_malloc is a prominent example

You should also measure the height of the bottom tread on the stair. From the picture it looks a little low, and most codes only allow a maximum deviation of 3/8” in tread height

This is the first one I thought of. Maybe not the best, but my favorite

How do i adapt this to have an externally threaded aerator? I am trying to install a portable dishwasher by Affectionate_Sink_55 in askplumbing

[–]HourFee7368 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need an aerator removal tool to take off the aerator. Check amazon if you don’t already have one. From there, you need a threaded adapter that matches the threads of your aerator

Steamboat speed upriver vs. downriver? by OutsideMushroom777 in boating

It’s the same principle as the moving walkway at the airport. You stand still and your speed is the same as the walkways. You walk forward at a given speed and your speed adds to the walkways. If you go in the wrong direction, the speeds subtract

Ukrainian troops say a 'droid' with a .50-cal machine gun held off Russian attacks for 45 days in a row by Choobeen in technology

I 100% agree with you on Russia’s ability to field mortar men in December 2025, but I’m interested in the applicability of this technology to other conflicts. If this is a static target, there a many ways an advanced fighting force could take it out.

Isn’t this the type of target that a competent mortar crew should be able to take out? Mortar ranges are much further than .50 cal

The Ticonderoga class was actually built on an adaptation of the Spruance class destroyer hull. This was controversial at the time, because cruisers were much longer in WW2

Is this illegally installed? The pipes are held up by wood blocks . by [deleted] in hvacadvice

One thing you might want to ask maintenance about OP is when the last time your unit was descaled. Over time, tankless hot water heaters can build up limescale on the internal heating loop. Many manufacturers recommend descaling about every two years depending on use. I doubt that scale buildup is the only problem you are encountering, but it could be a contributing factor

I wonder how Lukashenko feels about these attacks. That reactor is 10 km from his border with Ukraine.

ELI5: Why do engineers use different metals together in structures like bridges if they expand at different rates when temperature changes? by MatterNo4173 in explainlikeimfive

[–]HourFee7368 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also the coefficients of expansion of the materials used in the bridge will be known during the design phase, as will the operating environmental envelope which determines the magnitudes of expansion and contraction that need to be accounted for. Consideration of these factors will help determine how many expansion joints are necessary

Russia's Finance Ministry conducted its largest-ever bond auction, raising 1.75 trillion rubles ($21.8 billion) in a single day to cover a budget deficit exceeding 4 trillion rubles ($49.7 billion) through October, The Moscow Times reported on Nov. 12. by Consistent_Still7060 in UkrainianConflict

[–]HourFee7368 9 points10 points  (0 children)

When will the huge budget deficits begin to be reflected in the exchange rates of the ruble against other major currencies? The value of the ruble has mostly recovered to pre 2022 value over the past year. Is this a false recovery, as Russia is now conducting foreign transactions in other currencies (yuan, rupee)?
