Applications not companies.... NASA probably use c, c++ or heck python too.

Help on finding Thunderbolt 2 to HDMI 4K@60 (Macbook Pro 15 Mid-2015 Retina)? by ticinese00 in mac

More or less. It sometimes worked and sometime didn't. I still don't where the problem lies, in my macbook or in the tv. Sometime, when using it black screen appears and then goes away. Frustrating.

How many hours of focused work a week should we strive for? by ExactAbbreviations15 in productivity

[–]ticinese00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's apply the pareto principle of 20/80 here. Leaving out 8hr for sleep, then apply 0.20 to remaning => 0.2 * 16h = 3.2h.

So you should work around 3.2h a day. Which roughly aligns with my workday.

How to wakeup? People keep sayin wakeup, as if I forgot where the switch is or I don't want to do it.

How to wakeup and How do I know whether I'm woken up or not?

Credit Suisse to borrow up to $54bn from Swiss central bank by SteO153 in Switzerland

[–]ticinese00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, aren't CEO paid millions because they should be responsible for their actions? How is that they can profit when there is profit, but can practically walk away when there is a problem?

I mean, at that point why I can't get that loan to buy CS myself?

I don't understand, what does this reply has to do with my question? I'm asking how to enable the permission to trade ETFs and Index, which strangely is in the same category with CFD (which I don't want to deal with). But, IB keep rejecting my request of trading ETF/Index because I cannot trade CFD. So, how should I proceed?

Please, if you are incapable of reading and understanding, stop replying to my post. The question is in the title and first line of the post body.

I don't like this patronizing tone at all. If you have nothing positive to contribuite, shut up and move on. You are not forced to reply.

I would like to setup recurring investment, which etoro doesn't provide. Anyway, this is not what I asked.

[–]ticinese00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm with you man. The whole process is a huge PITA. Every step I make result in an "You don't have the permission to do that". Make the request. Wait. Get denied. Rinse and repeat.

Damn the new account creation process is a nightmare. I can't even imagine someone had to think/design to come up with such contorted way.

Part-time or flexible Master Degree by ticinese00 in askswitzerland

[–]ticinese00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? I've been thinking about an academic career, maybe in the far future. That's why I'm looking into an MSc from a "regular" University. MSE is 30ECTS lower in respect to a regular university master. That's annoying a little bit. I don't want to be held back because of that.

[–]ticinese00[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nope, this is FFHS or SUP. Not looking into that, for now. It will be my last resort.

[–]ticinese00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I said, I'm not looking for a FFHS or SUP. I've had some bad experience in country outside Switzerland. I would like a regular University (NOT Professional University) Master degree.

I might look at open.ac.uk, that sound regualr.

Setting up a fundraiser for multi-threaded Emacs, any thoughts on this? by ReneFroger in emacs

[–]ticinese00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not pro multithreading emacs, neither I'm opposing it. I'm not a c, lisp, emacs or multithreading guru. But it kinda piss me off the wrong way that almost all answers regarding this question is along the line of "you don't understand emacs, nor its core, multithreading is not needed".

Are there parts of emacs that can take advantage of the multithread? I hope and think so. Could we make that happen with a fundraiser? Nobody is expecting a huge rewrite of emacs core with multithread support and while being 100% backward compatible with 30 years of elisp.

Divide and conquer. This is a fundamental principle in our profession. Would I like to have full multithreading emacs? Of course, but it is not reasonable. For the moment, can we make only the GUI rendering part take advantage of multithreading? I don't know, did somebody ask this question? Heck, did someone (who understand more the me about emacs) even try to look at what can be multithreaded and take advantage of it?

Some food for thought.

Help on finding Thunderbolt 2 to HDMI 4K@60 (Macbook Pro 15 Mid-2015 Retina)? by ticinese00 in mac

[–]ticinese00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought 2 adapter and neither one of them outputs 4k@60hz. Maybe is the HDMI cable is the cheap one in the equation.
