Now we have time slicing for high reliability Ethernet (IEEE 802.1Qbv). I have never worked with it and don't properly understand it, but I think that instead of passing a token around, there are time windows for high priority devices to transmit.
Low priority devices must stop transmitting in the window, and switches will interrupt any transmissions not allowed.
NegPy is mostly vibe-coded, too.
A lot of Minis had the central speedo. Unsure if it's true or just automotive legend, but allegedly it was for cost cutting (fewer changes between left hand drive and right hand drive models). So nothing ever changes.
Does the system prompt and list of tools give away that you are not using Claude Code?

Maybe you could automatically redact high-entropy strings? It might be more reliable than looking at key names.
Do I look like I know what a JPEG is? I just want a picture of a hotdog.
I hate it when I have to think for myself.
Is 2008 a good cut-off? My 2016 BMW doesn't really have any annoying electronics or nannies compared to my 2005 model (other than electronic power steering :))
We could abbreviate that to SND!
I live a 5 hour train ride from London and my mobile data is also unusable.

I'd love to read about your setup!

Java Applets were my introduction to programming! I'm sad to see them go.

Fans can move a lot more air than convection.
At the silicon level, it is the same.
Each memory DIMM/stick is made up of multiple DRAM chip. ECC DIMMs have an extra chip for storing the error correcting parity data.
The bottleneck is with the chips and not the DIMMs. Chip fabs are expensive and time consuming, while making PCBs and placing components down onto them is much easier to get into.

The one in the comment I replied to.
Could you run XSLT as part of your build process, and serve the generated HTML?
I think for AGM batteries, it uses different charging curves depending on the age/health of the battery.
A 300mm wafer on a recent process node (TSMC N3) is estimated to be around $20k at quantity[1]. I don't know what kind of testing and crazy packaging processes would cost for a wafer-scale chip, but I can't imagine it would put the price anywhere near the millions.

The readme is very overwhelming but still doesn't tell me anything about the language, and the only file in the example directory is a hello world.
It might be good to expand on that, for those of us that don't remember the original W++ :)

That's a shame! It's a mistake almost everyone that has used a film camera has made, though.
On these older SLRs, one thing you can do to check that the film is loaded properly is to watch the rewind crank as you advance to the next frame. If everything is loaded and the film is engaged properly, you should see it turn.

Maybe we need more regulation to require a grace period after a failed payment...

There are the two Tri-Elmar-M lenses (16-18-21, and 28-35-50) which select between discrete focal lengths instead of zooming continuously :-)
