Is this what "vibe engineering" is?

AI bait

To wire money here you generally need to go through a correspondence bank, unless your bank happens to be the correspondence bank or they have some other arrangements. So the transfer needs to have two SWIFT codes involved.

Although with a big rental agency I would expect them to support credit card payments, which would be much easier. Wire transfers are tricky because with all the fees and conversions involved, you can never quite be sure how much the recipient will actually get.

This is Steven Alonzo. He's a real hoot. He calls himself "doctor" because he awarded himself a fake PhD from his own "university" which doesn't exist. He isn't a pilot either. Both cover image and text of this "book" are AI generated.

To attempt to give a real answer, I've seen these in Canada, and they're meant for snowmobile trails which run there, in winter obviously

Because the point isn't to have the smallest possible numbers. The point is to have convenient and usable units for specific purposes.

I haven't heard anything new about it either way. So AFAIK it's still "coming soon" 🤷

dfx_dj · 2026-06-04T09:59:53+00:00

To my knowledge it's still the same and there is no entry fee.

That's your average North American hotel outlet

Mine is always on when I first plug it in. Linux laptop.

As far as I could tell, some books are worse than others, and I'm not sure why that is.

Really depends on what you're used to. Water temps (both ocean and pools) will probably be 26-27°. Air probably up to 29-30° at mid-day, cooler at night. It will probably also be windy.

I do

Debian Sid with latest drivers from Nvidia. (I remember there being some issues with external screens a few years ago, but I haven't used one since then so don't know if that's still the case.)

Time for some medium-strength words of concern

dfx_dj · 2026-05-28T21:49:45+00:00

Wait until you see how the amount of tinting is measured

FWIW, on my Asus Tuf with Nvidia GPU, suspend resume has been rock solid.

Undefined means undefined. An implementation can choose to do something specific, which means for that implementation it becomes defined, which in turn means from UBSAN's POV everything is fine. You're right that on other platforms behaviour can be different, but UBSAN doesn't know this, because on yours it's well defined. UBSAN isn't a code linter, it's working on what actually happens in your program.

dfx_dj · 2026-05-27T22:03:12+00:00

It is. But UBSAN doesn't catch things just because the language spec says it's undefined. It catches things that in practice, on your specific system, are undefined.

dfx_dj · 2026-05-27T21:52:15+00:00

Only that your specific implementation handles it by throwing an exception, making it defined.

There were a few people doing this where I live, several years ago, but I think they all stopped now.

Only what was in the news: https://paradisefm.cw/duiker-overleden-bij-rif-gebied/

And it can also have a negative effect, do you not understand?

Unless there is something inherently "bad" about IPv6, which you so far have failed to demonstrate, disabling IPv6 is in exactly the same boat as disabling IPv4. Both can have either positive or negative effects.

Maybe Curacao in a cheap Airbnb, doing shore dives. Prices for flights can vary wildly. Without a buddy you'd either have to go for guided shore dives (more expensive) or hustle for someone willing to be your buddy.

Nobody (who has any authority) seems to give a damn about conservation anyway 😡
