TrueAnon did a really good deep dive on why Tesla is such a hosed up company entirely coasting on Musk's cult of personality if you've ever got a few hours and really get into the ins and outs of it

It's probably a good time to fix your utilities for a year or two, if you can. The current cap will be raised in six months or so and it'll probably be pretty painful. I've just had a quick look on money saving expert and can fix with Sainsbury's Energy for 24 months at roughly the rate I'm already paying. It feels like a pretty solid idea, given the state of things. Fixing for a single year would be slightly cheaper but in the long run it probably works out well.

I'm surprised that nobody registered Big Dick Energy back when everyone and their dog was setting up a utility company.

Wolfsbane posted:Arrays on the Archimedes started at -10 for some reason. It also had 26 special extra-fast variables you could use to improve performance, helpfully labelled a to z. I assume by 'the Archimedes' you mean its version of BASIC. I don't remember the array index thing but it is not a feature of the CPU hardware. I would be curious to see a reference.

It's kind of impressive that a party that's completely run out of money would look at its' members - the only people who seem at all likely to give them any money in the future - and tell them to gently caress off.

Does this increase the chance of Blair getting another leadership bid because if so I'm all for it. Him, Jess, Duffield, Kinnock jr and errr David Lammy so they can say they're not racist and also kick him out of the race at the first round because he once did a rude tweet about the police

Ha, I knew someone would call me out on that. I'm afraid my reference is "things I vaguely remember from learning BASIC years ago". I think it was explained that if you allocate an array of size (say) 20, then what you actually get is an array of size 30 with indices starting from -10. You can use the negative values to store things like array length. No idea if it's true or not, but I've believed it for nearly 30 years so by gammon logic it's not only true but beyond question. I can't find anything in the Archimedes BASIC compiler manual so it's possible our teacher was making it up, I can't remember if I ever checked.

Wolfsbane posted:Ha, I knew someone would call me out on that. I'm afraid my reference is "things I vaguely remember from learning BASIC years ago". Ok yeah that COULD be something like array metadata and would be used for yeah stuff like bounds checking to save your dumb rear end from a crash if you go out of bounds and give you a nice error message, i've seen that. For you as J Random Programmer not the guy writing the interpreter though you a) don't care about it just treat your arrays as zero indexed and b) shouldn't gently caress with it unless you know exactly what you're doing it is Not For You. Itd be like loving around with the exact implementation of malloc() on modern Linux, or C++ vtables, both of which do something similar. It'll end in tears. This is why it's not in the manual, your teacher was giving you a look behind the scenes.
