That's pretty awesome, really great improvements. I am curious if it could be improved further by using a radial fan, in either price, efficiency, or both.
The ethics, morality, and empathy chips haven't been invented yet. We're gonna have non-military serial killer robots (RS-485) first. After a few accidental genocides of people with ginger hair, then the upgrades will happen.
May as well claim air is breathed by non-pirates as well so it's not a piracy problem.
Well I have to mention JOE, in hex edit mode (Hit Ctrl-T ' after opening a file)

- Has help screen

- Has undo/redo

- Handles large files. Also you can specify a range of a file to edit, like this: "joe -hex /dev/sda,0,1024" to edit the partition table in hex..

- Has search/replace, including incremental search

- Shows offset: (Ctrl-K SPACE or put it in the status line)

- Can jump to byte: (Ctrl-K X byte). You can enter math at this prompt, like: "size-10" to go to 10 bytes from the end

- Supports insert or overtype mode

- Enter ASCII, decimal, hex, or octal bytes

The entire purpose of designing pilot/driver interface is to reduce pilot/driver workload and improve focus

Touchscreens do the exact opposite in the UI of any vehicle, and are inherently dangerous

1) They provide zero haptic feedback. There is no way for the driver to know without focusing their eyes on the screen if they have even touched the intended control. Then there is no way for them to tell if they have activated it.

Contrast with almost any kind of mechanical switch or knob - after using it just a few times, you can reach for it, find it and activate it, without even glancing and barely thinking, and know that you succeeded.

2) any activity REQUIRES that you take your eyes off the road and mirrors for an extended period of time, and focus on a text and menu system.

Contrast this with a properly setup analog gauge cluster where a quick glance will show all is good or highlight any off condition. The dials are set so the normal condition puts the needle straight-up, so anything off (e.g., over/under temp, voltage, etc.) immediately shows up. A good digital cluster has either good mimicry of analog gauges or large clear numbers clearly indicating the correct status at a glance.

I could plausibly see an interface with hardware switches and controls that activated controls on a map, as at least that can be learned to use by feel. The knobs used by BMW and Mazda to control their screens are better than touch screens, but not yet there.

And infotainment on top of that? Absolutely insane

I literally have zero insight into what these "designers" are thinking, if they are. Based on some replacement prices I've seen, it does not seem that touchscreens are cheaper than switches and knobs. Customers think it is pretty or cool? IDK

Just because you can, does not mean you should.
Yet they do.

A standard public-key encryption strategy would work if the key was generated on each client (instead of being handed over the air from the router in plaintext as you assume). This is exactly how HTTPS works — otherwise HTTPS would be completely susceptible to a man-in-the-middle attack
It is an insanely sloppy article but the point is a valid one. Microsoft has spent all kinds of money making Development on WP7 easy and that's after they spent all kinds of money making Silverlight easy. WP7 development is very easy.

But my counter point would be "So What?!?" Hello World in DOS is easier than writing it in OS X. But people don't develop for DOS because no one uses it anymore.

In the same way it isn't ease of use that's keeping people from developing for WP7.
I kind of expected this response, and the style of writing may be a little provoking, but I think it's a pretty factual assessment of where these projects are headed. Feel free to disagree, though.
I seem to recall a similar study I heard about a while ago, showing that although the average life expectancy of Norway was a lot higher than that of the US, people of Norwegian descent in the US tended to live longer than those in Norway.
Why are we even having these discussions?

If you want to build a business, do so.

If you want to build an app, do so.

If you want to play games all weekend, do that, and if you want to build a small tool just for your own use, do that.

Trying to come up with a strategy that all developers should follow misses the point that we are all individuals with our own needs and goals.

ASCII executables have been made in the past and use any displayable ASCII character. The difference with those is that this project is exclusively alphanumeric. To my knowledge that is a first.
Not only was it not "more popular," I am not aware of even research languages taking the idea of general-purpose partial evaluation not through syntax macros to the same lengths as Zig (although that doesn't mean there weren't any). It's possible that no one had thought of that, perhaps because type systems, while known to be possibly considered as a form of partial evaluation, are generally treated and studied as a completely separate concept: partial evaluation is a compilation technology while types are part of the theory.
AT&T's been so slow in getting fiber laid in the north and west suburbs of Chicago that I know more than a dozen homes in line for Starlink. Family's been puttering along on 25 down/5 up for the last 4 years with an annual angry phone call to keep it under $80. AT&T's done a half dozen neighborhoods that Comcast, RCA or Verizon haven't, but none their in.
But if you want to find a particular post, it really depends on the retention policy of the server you use. Free ones may have a year of retention. Commercial one's have 12 years or so. The only one that I know of where one can find posts further back than that is Google groups.

I want to say something about how messed up this system is... I spent many years as a grad student in economics and especially engineering. Not sure what to say though, my trajectory was pretty non-standard. From where I sat, the academic path looked like a meat grinder, and Econ. and Eng. are easier to break into academia than, e.g. biology, I have no doubt.

Aside, I’ve found my fill of god awful meat grinders in industry before and since, but I have no doubt the “existential career threat by default, high probability of failure no matter how good you are” methodology is the wrong way for civilization to progress.
I wouldn’t go as far as comparing Turkey to Russia. The recent Turkish elections have shown that the ruling Party in Turkey can lose key strongholds like Istanbul, this never happens in Russia. In Egypt, most contenders to the presidency are in prison now. Current president Al Sissi (a bloody dictator won by 97%) Erdogan om the other hand won by 53%. Putin by 73% while some major opposition leaders barred from running.

Turkey is often unfairly criticised by western media, which obviously prefers military dictators in power.
And they're both pointless, fallacious (non-)insights. Argument from inflammatory reframing? It doesn't change the facts on the ground. If you like the taste and/or psychoactive effects of coffee, relative to the cost, drink it! The fact that you can call it burnt bean water shouldn't matter to that.
Right, but the original comment was the one making sweeping claims without evidence, and the your parent comment is defending the position of Scott Alexander who has put more footnotes on this subject than anybody I’ve seen that doesn’t have a gender studies PhD.

I was talking about why Ubuntu was dropping AUFS, not why docker was. I've been following the UnionFS area in Linux for awhile now and AUFS still seems to be the only viable option.
So I was asking to find out if Ubuntu expects one of the alternatives to be ready soon.
Actual study, for those interested:

A great example is slimehead (Hoplostethus atlanticus), known in the US market by the more familiar name orange roughy. H. atalanticus is very long lived (up to ~150 years) and has a low reproductive rate. Forty years ago orange roughy was not commercially harvested. Today, the species has been so effectively harvested by bottom trawling that in most fisheries, the species has crashed.
Just because you didn't have a serious reaction, doesn't mean others won't. Mislabeling of food products is not an acceptable solution. Those with food allergies need to know what is going into their food.
I've never had tuna that looked like escolar, assuming the comparison pictures in a Google image search are accurate:

Particularly this image:

If I received sushi or maki that claimed to be tuna but looked like a ghost I would send it back. Is the use of escolar as tuna a regional thing, or is some escolar a pink/red color?

I want to believe it's a matter of adding human labor to the Pool of Knowledge in the AI engine(s); this is, this is not, go do the learning thing.

But when it comes to online video checking, it's another tool in the arsenal; it's the first lines of defense. First check: does the signature match a previously known and confirmed video marked as porn or otherwise unacceptable. Second check: does the more fuzzy AI thing consider it porn with a high probability. Third check, which will be things the AI mark as 'not sure' or incorrectly marks as 'porn', and things humans flag up manually, will be humans checking and judging things.

And of course it'll be flexible, because the definition of porn - or what is 'not acceptable' - will vary by country and culture, and these companies want to be active everywhere.

except Europe, unless they are given tax breaks and data, amirite
The world would definitely get along just fine without them
There are private sector companies that are not wholly driven by profit. They seem few and far between in this climate, but they do exist and sometimes grab headlines.

I read of Wil Reynolds and Seer Interactive[1] yesterday. It's inspiring.

Other than suggesting you apply for a job there, one thing to consider is starting your own business. Never having worked in business is not an issue: you need a basic nose for marketing / advertising, a willingness to work hard, and something you think people will spend money for. Find a sense of purpose by doing what you want: what you find fulfilling. What would you spend money on? Then organise your business to fit your ethics.

For any random term, first Google the heck out of it, and see what it means.

If you can't find it, then is it a made up thing? Perhaps the exam is to see if you've been paying attention, and if so, you should call out this bogus term, and not try to bullshit your way through it.
Can you share what it was like to start medication?

> Always the answer is: they didn't make profit because they reinvested or otherwise spent the money. (Correct me of I'm wrong)

Generally the answer is: they "spent" the money on "intellectual property" licensed to them by a subsidiary in Ireland (patents, brand name, software license) where that subsidiary pays zero takes through some accounting trickery[0] and moves that money offshore to Bermuda or Caymans. So the main company makes zero profit in markets outside Ireland because coincidentally licensing expenses exactly equal the gross profits of the company - and thus pays zero taxes anywhere ever.

[0] formerly the "double Irish" international tax loophole, nowadays there's a different "Irish patent box"
How does the other entity get out of taxes? If the answer is offshore tax havens, I agree that they're a problem, but domestic tax policy isn't the greatest lever for fixing this. But in general, just moving your money around doesn't let you entirely evade taxes.
Do you think improved brain imaging could help with this, or is it still not precise enough?

After watching a deconstruction video of hypernormalisation I was left thinking I had been suckered again "loose change style"
I was recommeded to watch his lastest release (of which the full 8.something hours is available directly on Curtis' own you tube channel)
I watched the first 20 / 30 minutes and turned off. It felt like how I imagine brain-washing works. Lots of weird (and jarring) footage un-related to the voice over, werid music (not required for what is supposed to be a documentary IMO) and jumped from topic to topic without any cohesive thread or reason. No longer a fan.

Either. Both. Whatever.

Having a backup planet opens up, literally, a world of possibilities. In the end, either we survive as a species or we don't. The universe doesn't care either way, but we're capable of caring, so we should continue to live.

Edit: Actually, I suppose either way, we don't survive in the end. But might as well die out later than sooner, if possible.
They're also the ones squawking loudest now that the value of their capital investment in the machines needed to copy media is essentially 0. Being forced to provide services and be a broker is SO much harder than extracting rent on a piece of equipment.
I like how it works now organically. If the discussion was broadly seen, there won't be any up vote interest, and if not, then it clearly hasn't taken its course.
That's the basic concept of most licensing: ensure that the practitioner is good enough to meet some basic level of competence. Although that makes sense for things like a license to drive a car, I don't think it makes sense for teaching since teaching (in my opinion) is an art. It would be silly to provide licensing for people to practice art or a similarly creative endeavor.

Admittedly anecdotal, but I've asked a few teacher friends if graduate school has made them better teachers and all have answered that it hasn't. Rather, they would insist that it's a more organic experience of learning through teaching over time and experimenting with the medium. Perhaps it's just that teacher education in America is fragmented and ineffective but I think it's just the nature of most art that the skill can't be acquired in an academic setting.

To me the ultimate effectiveness measure is if parents choose to send their kids to that school or students sign up for that class voluntarily.

If I recall correctly, the first Pioneer probe to Jupiter wasn't supposed to have a camera on board, because the chief scientist thought it would provide no information of scientific value. His objection was overcome.

Nobody in unmanned space exploration has been so spectacularly wrong on every level, since. (Manned, sure.)
Wouldn't hard problems make it easier to remember? If you spent a couple of months a few hundred lines of code, then you probably know it much better than something you finished in an afternoon.

Personally, I can remember pretty much every line of some algorithms I wrote years ago, but I was doing some cleaning the other day and there was a month old abandoned branch I had no idea why it was written.
Sockets allow for more robust serialization than argv.
This would be interesting to integrate into https://github.com/openmiko/openmiko which is a firmware for the T20 based ip-cameras.

Right now, I am not aware of any cheap ip camera that can stream its H264 video to a regular web browser, with sub 500 ms latency. All manufacturers seem to have moved to an app, I guess they can show an RTSP stream in that way.

Older ip cameras had MJPEG which you could view in the browser, but that is really inefficient w.r.t. bandwidth.
"Juden werden hier nicht bedient"

There have been very large wars fought over this. Be careful what you wish for.

The right to be a bigot, and to have one's bigotry projected by a company one creates, a company whose rights are enforced by the state, is not worth defending.
>Only _some_ aspects and activities of government are criminal.

States do some "good" things like feeding hungry schoolchildren, but never without first committing some "bad". Typically this is extortion (taxation/"revenue"),but originally states are founded on other forms of aggression like military conquest.

Those who perform "good" tasks like being a teacher or web developer can be forgiven totally.

>We still need someone to build roads

This is the #1 laugher for us anarchist libertarians. Here's a lengthy book if you would like to see the case against road socialism.

https://mises.org/library/privatization-roads-and-highways

Poke around that site and I'm sure you can find many more arguments for each of the things you mistakenly think a free society can't provide.

Please realize that the blind alley is in part thinking that government is a business. It isn't and will never be. It's similar to your local mafioso, just a widely accepted one.

Thanks to people dismissing ElsaGate as "just weird videos", that issue never got the attention it actually deserved. Aside from the countless rationalizations, part of the blame is on YT in my books; mostly for saying "it's fine, we'll deal with it" instead of collecting data, analyzing it, and making the results public to warn parents.
That Practical Engineering video (the first link) is excellent - in fact I would recommend the entire channel.
Surfing the internet is a pretty low bar for WiFi networks, and has been easily passed for 10+ years.

The fact is that wireless signals do penetrate walls, and putting an access point in every room would probably do more harm than good in terms of increasing interference.
I'm not sure how productive it is to lump yourself into social categories like this. I tested as an INTP as well, but I would venture to say that I am generally a "finisher" (at least, when it comes to my projects). When I am really drawn into a project, I lose myself: nothing else matters, and I meticulously perfect each and every detail until it is "finished". Then I drop it and move onto something else.

I empathize with the other characteristics you mentioned: "dawdling, distracted, and forgetful of mundane chores, late for obligations, losing homework or library books, and generally disconnected from the external world". But I make a point to finish my projects, or else I feel dissatisfied with myself.

I think part of how I do this is that, although my attention does wander, when I am working on a project it only wanders across little details, rather than large concepts; rather than getting bored with the project itself and moving onto another, I merely get bored of a detail and focus on another (usually completely unrelated, but still within the realms of the vision that is the finished
project). After doing this for a while, eventually the entire project is finished, because that is really all it is — a collection of little details. (Of course, this only works if you are perfectionist as I am.)

To be honest, I think that these arbitrary measurements like IQ tests and personality descriptions are irrelevant (and maybe even procrastinations) to solving your real problem. If you want to be able to finish projects, just work on them — you won't know what motivated you in theory until you discover it in practice.
