Nvidia is replacing Intel in the Dow Jones Industrial Average, a shakeup that reflects a massive change in the semiconductor industry.Kif Leswing (CNBC)
Ač jsem veskrze pragmatická, přece jen jsem několikrát v životě narazila na věci zvláštní... třeba dnes v noci.
Utočili na mě děsi, všemožné příšery, tlamy otevřené, oči vyvalené, co chvíli to vypadalo, že je po mě. Fakt jsem se bála. Musela jsem vstát, rozsvítit a zaměstnat se něčím jiným, abych se jich zbavila.
Takže vytyčuji téma: tajemno... Setkali jste se s něčím, co si nedokážete vysvětlit?

Biweekly is a terrible word.
-- Would you know if “biweekly” means twice a week or twice a month in this email?
Edit: Guys, the whole point is that it can mean both :P
You guys should follow French on this and do biweekly for twice a week and bimonthly for twice a month.
And every two weeks, for every two weeks.

Says this year's budget will be $60 billion, a 50-per-cent increase in six years.La Presse Canadienne (Montreal Gazette)
So... this was a fun compiler bug: the D8 Java to DEX compiler (part of the Android toolchain) eliminated a redundant field load if running the class's static initialiser was known to be free of side effects, which ended up accidentally depending on the sharding of the input, which is dependent on the number of CPU cores used during the build.
issuetracker.google.com/issues…
I made a small example to illustrate why this optimisation is only valid when the class initialiser doesn't have side effects (or the initialiser is guaranteed to have run already, which is the case for a base class of the current one):
