@MylesKeating Ha, I've seen the full spectrum of MVPs (from "let's copy-paste scripted answers!" to Jon Skeet) ... not entirely sure the qualification means much :P But yea you do need a front line of some sort.

As for Containers... I wonder if they'll ever be a viable Sandboxie replacement.

At least on Linux (LXD) they're a good way to test things out without messing with the rest of the system.

But seeing as they currently don't support graphical programs on Windows...

Then again, graphical programs aren't naturally implemented with a remote (X) server on Windows :P

@CaptainBohemian There's one called "fridge". It's amazing!

Captain Bohemian

I just hate the need to go hunt for food so frequently.

That Russian Guy

Hunt? Well, in your case, I suggest another machine then: a time machine!

Well, fridge is not enough. You need a machine to make food hot after putting it in the fridge. Icy lunchbox doesn't taste good at all.

> 3. On an SMT system, any non-idle SMT sets are removed, even if this might cause the elimination of the ideal processor itself. In other words, Windows prioritizes a non-ideal, idle SMT set over an ideal processor.
4. Windows checks whether the ideal processor is among the remaining set of idle processors. If not, it must then find the most appropriate idle processor. To do this, it first checks whether the processor that the thread last ran on is part of the remaining idle set. If so, it considers this processor to be a temporary ideal processor and selects it. (Recall that the ideal pro…

In other words, Windows tries pretty hard to pick the processor that causes minimal cache misses.

But it also won't preempt/move a thread that has higher or equal priority just to preserve a process' affinity (explicit or implicit).

And it will prefer a move to a different processor rather than leaving it to sit idle.

I'm pretty sure Linux does something similar but it's been a while since I last looked at its scheduling.

@bwDraco ^ the bit about Windows scheduling above is a continuation of earlier Ryzen-related discussion... now that I finally have that Internals book :P

bwDraco

That is awfully complicated.

Scheduling on an SMP system is so damn complex.

Bob

@bwDraco It's just a combination of the complexity of scheduling in general, and multithreaded programming in general :P

It's hard to decide which is the most optimal thread/processor, especially considering you want to minimise cycles wasted on making a decision.

Burgi

09:29

speaking of emails...

are unicode emails valid?

and by extension of that can i have an emjoi email address?

Oliver Salzburg

@Burgi You can not

I looked into it

At least that is what I concluded at the time

Burgi

but unicode emails are fine?

Oliver Salzburg

@Burgi You mean the content?

Burgi

no, i mean the address itself

Oliver Salzburg

Then say that :D

No, they are not fine. You can have a punycode encoded host part on the address

But you can't punycode the name part the same way

Burgi

09:32

ah it was the host bit i was wondering about

Oliver Salzburg

That works fine

We host the email services for one of our clients who has an umlaut in their domain

It's annoying

Burgi

i was about to ask about germany specifically

Oliver Salzburg

It's common practice (at least for us) to have "both" domain names. As in, if you had müller.de, you'd also get mueller.de and then forward the first to the second

Burgi

have you mapped the none umlaut version to their site?

ITS LIKE YOU ARE READING MY MIND!!!!!

Oliver Salzburg

There are a lot of people who don't know that you can use umlauts in domains and they will auto-convert ü → ue in their head

So it's usually not viable to only have one of the domains

Burgi

09:36

would you also get muller.de for english speakers?

Oliver Salzburg

And you never forward non-umlaut → umlaut unless you want trouble. Never make the umlaut version the default :P

@Burgi No, that is not a valid substitute. But some companies would chose to get it anyway to catch typos or whatnot

It's not a strict substitute, more like getting gogle.de or gooogle.de

And prepare yourself for all the "This is not a valid email address" errors you will see with an umlaut address :(

Burgi

now i didn't know about the umault to ue thing, i'd have just used a lowercase u

Oliver Salzburg

> lulz at poop cake tear-eyed-smiley-face dot ws is so valid

Burgi

we have a non-standard TLD and run into it all the time ;)

Oliver Salzburg

@Burgi Global players will have the ü → u converted domains more commonly

British Rail Class 483

The British Rail Class 483 electrical multiple units were originally built as 1938 tube stock units for London Underground. They were extensively refurbished between 1989 and 1992 by Eastleigh Works, for use on services on the Isle of Wight's Island Line. This was despite having already worked for nearly 50 years on the London Underground. The units replaced the even older and life-expired Class 485 and Class 486 units, which were introduced in 1967, but were originally built as 'Standard' stock units for the London Electric Railway in 1923. The stock is around 80 years old, making it the oldest...

Btw the train is infinitely better than any other way to get into D.C. if you ever visit. Driving in DC is hugely risky, annoying, slow, and costly (likely to get a ticket from an automated ticket dispenser machine that gives you a $50 ticket for going 1 mph over the speed limit)

DavidPostill

> Overtime pay

Overtime work is all work in excess of the normal hours of work (excluding breaks).

You can claim overtime if you are:

A non-workman earning up to $2,500.
A workman earning up to $4,500.

The overtime rate payable for non-workmen is capped at the salary level of $2,250, or an hourly rate of $11.80.

For overtime work, your employer must pay you at least 1.5 times the hourly basic rate of pay. Payment must be made within 14 days after the last day of the salary period.

Source mom.gov.sg/employment-practices/…

Your employer must pay you overtime.

> Note: If you are not a shift worker but agree to work up to 12 hours a day, and not exceeding an average of 44 hours over any 3 continuous weeks, you must:

Give your consent in writing.
Have the provisions of Sections 38 and 40 of the Employment Act explained to you.
Be informed of your daily working hours, number of working days in each week and weekly rest day.

> Employers who require their employees to work more than 12 hours a day or more than 72 hours of overtime a month will have to apply to the Ministry for exemption. Under the Workplace Safety and Health (WSH) Act, employers must conduct proper risk assessment of the jobs.

Exemption may be given when jobs are assessed by MOM to be low risk, taking into consideration factors such as safety, the company's employment records as well as views of both workers and unions. Even when such exemptions are granted, employers should not compel employees to work overtime.

How many overtime hours have you worked in the last month?
