They would do a world of good if they just culled one particular, very active account instead.
Nice overview. Windows 1-3 used "non-premptive" or "cooperative" scheduling, which is why any process could hang the system. That method does have its uses though. I once wrote a micro kernel for MSP430 that did it that way too. As long as you can guarantee that a task will complete within a specified time, it's a good lightweight solution.
The times when I've gotten the ratio that high have been times when I've been learning new skills while building new things. There's something to be said to building something using that new cool new framework. Its got to still be relevant but this can definitely help. There are many right ways to solve most problems and some are more fun.
Unfortunately I found shen a pain to get into due to it still being mostly a teaching tool. However, if the community builds some nice tooling around it I will definitely give it another look.
It was one center by one doctor who is being investigated. This was not the machinations of federal or state.
Good for them...They spend their energy on substandard news and thrashing those who do not share their news.
Bitmain gives preferential treatment to certain vendors. This is problematic with a massive supply shortage. It makes it worst when the hardware that already exists starts to become worthless.
Uh, yeah. I wonder what kind of typo triggered an autocorrect into that word...
Yes. It appears so. But it's so horrific, no one wants to talk about it.

In December 2018 The Tribunal issued an interim judgement:

“The Tribunal’s members are certain – unanimously, and sure beyond reasonable doubt – that in China forced organ harvesting from prisoners of conscience has been practiced for a substantial period of time involving a very substantial number of victims.”

For now, maybe. Consider the time when microsoft was partially successful to boot-lock arm devices: https://www.softwarefreedom.org/blog/2012/jan/12/microsoft-c...

The old adage "do not assign to malice what can be properly explained by stupidity" should not be blindly applied when it involves powerful companies.
I've got a grin from ear to ear. Ah, memories....
So the headline definitely accurately represents the text... that's better than most headlines these days!
I figured that some crazy shit like that would have happened somewhere. Doesn't surprise me that it was fellow Buckeyes.
The bulk of marginal lives saved will be at supply-demand curve point of the value of a life (as valued by the "buyer" -- so you will pay a lot, your family a bit less, your friends a bit less, your employer a bunch less, and a stranger a lot less; and rich people will pay more because they can afford to be less efficient)
Your understanding, based on ignoring the linked document?

What government programs unrelated to Snowden's disclosure collect millions of Americans telephony metadata?

Check page 13. They directly reference Snowden. I'm getting a strong sense that you are a troll.
I'm not entirely certain that black markets are the best way to facilitate a safe drug trade, but given a choice between Silk Road and more violent alternatives, Silk Road seems like the obvious better choice.
Ok site is back up! Sorry about that!
My apologies; talk of 'TIL' and inboxes made me think of reddit.
For individual apps and sites, you're right. Individuals with good taste can rival and sometimes outperform the larger companies.

However, large companies like Apple can deliver an entire suite of software to users that has high quality, consistent UX.

This means consumers who aren't used to technology only have to learn a lot of things once. On the other hand, people who've grown up using Apple products already have an idea how to use new ones.

Individuals and small organizations can create some amazing things but large corporations definitely have some intrinsic advantages, especially when it comes to larger projects.
This will work really well. Some leaves use this same mechanism to 'self-clean', which means that now we will have the ability to add the 'lotus effect' to man-made objects.

Need help on this. I tried registering a handler for the up_button_pressed and down_button_pressed events, but the handler doesn't seem to be passed any arguments.

Is this correct?

floor.on("up_button_pressed", function(event) { ... } );
I wasn't specifically referring to her analysis, indeed as you point out with those sample sizes and the number of potential conflating factors it's unlikely this data is statistically worth anything -

I was commenting more on the general approach, of evaluating ones actions or choices within the context of a statistical framework.
Dear God.

Why not just... use a scripting language?

I hear LUI is pretty popular as a DSN these days.
It kinda reminds me of how a troll can stir up conversation on a quiet channel sometimes.
Until section 230 is reformed, Facebook can't keep banning whoever they want by making certain concepts more broad.

It's a bit like XMPP.
I agree with you but out of curiosity what do you suggest as a solution ? You believe all we need is the fine and then the company goes under ? If that's true then all the individuals who failed could just as easily go to another company and repeat their failures.

For doctors a failure can make their license get revoked (even tho it doesn't seem to happen very often in practice). Wonder if there could be something similar but indeed it is very hard to find "a person to blame", maybe the CEO? CTO? :)
Just a friendly reminder that nuclear power causes fewer deaths per terawatt hour than any other energy source known to man.
Incidentally, he was "the only engineer in the C-suites". [0] I think the problem ran much deeper than the CEO.

It's a long term investment. And it helps especially big sites. It's kind of the new RSA/AES/SSL hype (SSL 3.0 released in 1996, IE shipped with Win95 already supported SSL 2, then Win98SE shipped IE 4.01 if I remember correctly, and ... people were amazed. Ecommerce was all the rage, and boom, dot-com boom.)

But it's hopefully done properly this time. :)

It's the next logical step. There's no rush to implement it, even if it's nice and shiny.

Both Firefox and Chrome already has built-in support for DoH. So encrypted DNS is already getting taken care of.

There are an increasing number of providers to choose from: https://github.com/curl/curl/wiki/DNS-over-HTTPS

And rolling your own is always an option.

Info leak, trust a 3rd party, invest your time, pick your poison :)

I think the infoleak is not that serious, because in most cases a passive observer will have the IPs you connect to, and currently it's pretty easy to just enumerate the IPs of the "top 1 million websites" (I have no idea if anyone on Earth still uses the Alexa toolbar at all, or if it exists at all, but that list seems eternal somehow).

This is basically where the hiding in the noise strategy is made possible "thanks" to CDNs. If there are thousands of sites all hosted on a handful of IPs then correlating who views what is getting increasingly harder.

We shall see if this kind of slow but steady activism helps with government censorship on the long term or not.
The left side is loose with the truth too. They suppress newsworthy stories or do no reporting on things that are against their agenda. Selective reporting is loose with the truth as well.

So maybe one side fabricates more and one side withholds more. Two ways to be scandalous. They are both profit driven and aren't truthful any way you slice it. They are not trustworthy with news and cannot be relied upon to be objective. Even the shows positioned as news are super biased and full of opinions.

I understand they are entitled to have opinionated segments with personalities. That's fine.

But we have regulations around what is Champagne or Bourbon. And you need a license to cut hair. Maybe anything dubbed "news" should have a standard?
I kind of disagree about this: maybe it's different if you're more mature but reddit was my first social media platform, I used it a lot in middle school, and in my experience rage bait was a huge problem. Rage bait subreddits become more and more extreme over time, losing the ability to distinguish the people they hate from parodies of the people they hate and effectively building up an effigy/totem of "the other side" to concentrate that hate onto. When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. I eventually realized I had to quit reddit because the extent to which I engaged in rage bait made me a worse person.
I think the point of Google Fiber is to give Google a lever on big telcos. They have a credible capability to come in to just about any area and totally disrupt the ISP / cable TV market there.

Right now, all those ISPs are directly in between Google and their users. In any discussion about net neutrality, this gives Google a powerful and highly visible next-best alternative to a negotiated outcome.

Due to Google Fiber being available as a threat, Google will never have to pay net neutrality fees like Netflix does, because they can simply come in to an area and cause a huge amount of pain for the incumbent ISP that threatened them. Even just publicly discussing moving in to an area causes significant expenses for existing ISPs.
I wonder how large the overlap of people on HN and CS:GO players is. Either way, I fall into that description. Let me play with the app a bit and I'll return with some feedback. My initial concern is with immediately tapping the bomb timer, sometimes that half a second makes a difference. It'd be cool to do some sort of audio processing to listen for bomb plant audio... but I play with a headset so probably not feasible either.

The app looks great though.
You can put all of the terms on the same graph; that would allow people to compare these on a like for like basis as opposed to "look at the shapes, here is an argument".
Gross. Cultural imperialism at it's finest.
PCI covers the handling of payment information. So any service on Heroku can't handle payment data unless in the form of a token. Hosting a form that posts to a 3rd party host is what has now become "in scope" with v3.0 of PCI DSS.
However, both the Hebrew scriptures of the Old Testament and the Greek scriptures have always asserted that God is active in history and actively intervened to change the course of history for his chosen people. My process of discovering that the specific parts of the Bible are not verifiable, while the verifiable parts of the Bible are not specific, involved learning all the original languages of the Bible, reading through the Bible in its entirety in those original languages, and meanwhile learning about the verifiable history of the times and places described in the Bible. Simply put, whoever wrote the Bible was not infallible, but sadly very fallible indeed. And that shows that the Bible is not God's word revealed to us, as I was taught in my youth, but rather a collection of human stories and speculation about God, which anyone has the right to disagree with, as the overall description of God and his attributes is not even consistent among the various Biblical writings.
It's s huge problem, and another curse Apple has gotten the rest of the laptop industry to adopt. Newer ThinkPads ship with Thunderbolt instead of DisplayPort. So if I want external monitors, I'm screwed. I can't just epoxy the port, like I did with FireWire.

Maybe not you personally, but one of the long-term informal goals of PureDarwin is to have an open-source environment you could run XCode CI builds on.
The logical implication of saying "Facebook saying they did not know something is always a lie" is that facebook knows literally everything at all times.

That's like some bizarre self hating facebook worship at that point.
"Just think of paying 99 cents just to get Mario to jump a little higher."

It might be the right thing for Nintendo to get into mobile gaming, but I don't think this would be the reason why.
Thanks for the extra info!

The unpredictable share-name likely adds the most important short-term barrier – essentially an extra random passphrase that's not offline-brute-forceable – especially if your server is logging/throttling scans of the share-name space.

Do I understand correctly that the 'share' command doesn't exit until the session ends? If so, it might be nice to report all the connections/attempts at each session end, so checking another log at a remote console isn't required to notice an anomaly.

The security may be fine for typical uses, I just wanted to help people understand that the password chosen is potentially leaked (in encrypted form) to third-parties... so shouldn't be something too weak/common/widely-reused.
> 2. A login page that literally just two inputs and a submit button.

> 3. A signup page that was similar.

I don't think I'd be amiss in pointing out the login page of the site we're using right now, which has one page with both of those forms in exactly that format. :)
I expected better from GitHub, disappointed!

I haven't written anything up, specifically. I have been thinking about it though. I did do a lot of research on other's org-mode habits and configurations, spent countless hours constructing my own setup, and also getting used to it.

It would be a worthwhile exercise to write about it, it would give me a chance to refine some loose ends as well.
reminds me of "hot or not"
Seconded. These twitter stories make me bite the table every time.

It boggles the mind that they are still failwhaling constantly, after all this time.

Why won't someone finally fire the tech team, all of them, and hire someone with a clue?

The twitter application is about as trivial as it gets for a messaging application. Much more complex systems, both distributed and centralized, handle much higher loads every day, without dropping out all the time.

Redis is a fine piece of software, mind you. But one would think they'd be a bit beyond the stage of "experimenting" after four years of operation....
Pretty much. If you're a guy, you'll do far better if you're overconfident of your attractiveness than if you have an accurate impression.
As long as you don't call it REST, then the purists shouldn't have a problem with it. I'm not a purist myself, I'm more about getting things done, and sometimes a useful API just doesn't map cleanly onto REST.
Perhaps he does not want to run a fund, either?
I know there's no requirement to do so, but am somewhat surprised that they didn't get a heads up or thanks from Apple for such a visible implementation.
I am not sure I would call that "evolution".
This is hacker news and so I'm trying to not just post a low effort reply, but reddit.com/r/menkampf is all about taking that premise and running with it.

Before finding that subreddit, I didn't notice how just how commonplace casually insulting men was accepted.

I do understand the power difference that isn't one to one and why this sort of insulting is accepted, in that men are not a real minority like Jewish people are so culturally insulting men is a considered a punching up situation.

Still, I think the proliferation and casual acceptance of the rhetoric people use in this context is not exactly healthy for society.
It reminds me Harry Potter movie
They use a different vulnerability database. Snyk's contains vulnerabilities that NPM's doesn't have, and vice versa. We're using them both in combination.
"(1) it isn't needed"

Why?
You lose the running state, as if you'd pulled the battery out. I've had that only happen a few times, ever. Many applications nowadays recover from that. My editor has recovery files, many of my games autosave, my web browser restores the session, etc. It is disruptive, yes, but it's rare enough that I just don't care that much about it. (And definitely not enough that I'd trade the speed of suspend-to-RAM for the reliability of suspend-to-disk.)

(I've had far more issues with the physical connection between the laptop & the battery not being very solid anymore…)
this allows to search nutrients instead of comparing foods:

Hah, good point. That might be the only one that actually works.

However, it has an advantage in that it's rarely the start of a sentence (usually it will be The iPhone), and anyone using a Mac will have it autocorrect.
I think I read somewhere that with containerization the easiest assumption is that shipping is a zero cost activity.
From what I've gathered when interviewing and the public data you can find on levels.fyi, Spotify doesn't pay their Stockholm employees very well, even by European standards.
Work was always unpleasant and undesirable.

The concept of "wage slavery" was coined back in ancient Greece (i.e. the people who had to work for a living were not considered really free). The Puritanian work ethics, which consider work to be a virtue and something of innate value, are more a weird quirk of some Western countries rather than an universal stance. Basically, through all times and places, most people dreamt of being wealthy, so that their needs would be met and they wouldn't have to work. BTW now this dream is monetized in the form of various national lotteries.

Let's remove computers from laypersons because they can't understand simple English. /s

Seems to me that the end result of such a lawsuit, if it moves forward, is that Chrome will drop the feature. It's not like it has any legal requirement to provide a feature like Incognito and if the courts decide that it can be easily misunderstood (and if it costs Google actual money because of that decision) then why spend engineering time providing such a feature.
There was never one commonly accepted meaning for a MB. Storage has always been base10. Linespeed has always been base10. RAM is native to a matrix, and lazy programmers like to pretend that means everything is.

The first commercial drive, the IBM 305, stored 100,000 characters on each of 50 platters, for 5 million total characters. Drives have been a base10 number of sectors for my entire lifetime.
I don't think it's for you to tell; I think it's like (as someone else mentioned) dancing or playing guitar or other creative arts - the only judge is other's feedback on the output you produce, preferably some kind of balanced mix of experts in the field, peers at your level, and the public at large.

We don't really have standard competitions (no, HackerRank and Kaggle don't quite count) but certainly (much like creators) coding in the open, collaborating, and soliciting feedback on the things you've code is probably the most certain way.

One thing that I've always admired about 30k hours high performing folks is their sheer level of output; because they have mastered things, producing new things becomes something almost effortless, and so their challenge becomes keeping psychologically grounded in that high performing zone (avoiding the "yips"); collaborating with others to break new ground; and putting their talents to their most effective use.
It certainly is forgotten.

We keep hearing about how the Afghanistan war is the 'longest US war', but of course the longest US war is the Korean War which is still ongoing after 71 years. The Korean War is not over, it is merely in an armistice mode.

Actually, the main beef for the North Koreans is security from bombing, and their main aim is to formally end that Korean War with a Peace Treaty to do so.
Gamestop should buy Stadia.
This was on the top of reddit yesterday: https://www.reddit.com/r/WhitePeopleTwitter/comments/ls6l54/...

I think this post is a good summary of what new reddit has become. Both the content and the comments within.
I wanted to like this piece for calling Signal for what it is: WhatsApp with better marketing (with a lot of security and privacy backed by obscurity), but if everyone is jumping ship from WhatsApp out of data syphoning concerns, I'm not sure that Matrix's insistance on replicating and distributing as much metadata as possible across its nodes is much better.

The end game is probably P2P with "dumb" servers doing little more than just passing packets across the network (which kind of goes against battery efficiency on mobile devices), but in the meantime I'd rather bet on XMPP (which has diverse client+server implementations, tiny footprint even on a RPi, approachable and standardized protocol one can implement in a weekend) that's getting really good and hassle free to self host at a family & friends level.
The title is lying about resolution by a couple orders of magnitude.
This is a pipe dream.
But it is much simpler to write it in XPath (that could then be included in XSLT)

for $i in 1 to 100
return if ($i mod 3 = 0 and $i mod 5 = 0) then "FizzBuzz"
else if ($i mod 3 = 0) then "Fizz"
else if ($i mod 5 = 0) then "Buzz"
else $i

Wrap it in string-join, if you need the output as one string with line breaks rather than a sequence list.

Although one can also write horrible clever XPath:

for $i in 1 to 100
return (("Fizz"[$i mod 3 = 0] || "Buzz"[$i mod 5 = 0])[.], $i)[1]
Right, but that wasn’t the point you were making. I wasn’t arguing that Apple was never anti-competitive.
Had something that worked like this a few years ago, it had the problem that it forced the blue-tooth to suck the battery clean very quickly.

It seamed like a use-full thing, but when i used it it was actually more of a annoyance than i helpful thing. Leaving the phone next to the computer becomes a no no.
Any similar resources for back end devs too?
There is nothing about "automatic" warrants in that document, just an amendment that would:

1) Extend venue for warrants for remote searches, in cases where the location of the servers is either obscured or in certain cases where the targeted computers located in five or more districts, to magistrate judges in any district, rather than just magistrate judges in the district where the computers are located (Rule 41 amendments pp. 338-339, lines 14-21), and

2) Specify how notice must be provided when searches are conducted on the basis of a warrant for remote access search (id., lines 33-43).
Can anyone please suggest an accurate title? We will change it.
This. I thought that all the way through too. Why is it not reprehensible to be advocating a policy that sucks the talent out of the rest of the world for the glory of Uncle Sam? There are exceptionally talented people all over the world, VCs need to get on planes more.

I think the PCI versions need the host to provide them all the IO services. IIRC, the host loads the OS image and then boots the Phi.

OTOH, the early PCIe Phis had SMT4, so the thread count was higher than the latest versions. But... they were Cell PPU-like "threads" in that giving each core a single thread to work would result in overall 25% core utilization - useful if adding more threads results in more L2 cache misses. In that, the latest Phis are much nicer - the individual cores, while not doing SMT4 (or 2), are much better than the first-gen ones.

I don't remember any SPARC T3 workstations too. Would have been smart to seed developers with them since before the first Niagara to encourage development for high thread counts, but Sun's management at the time wasn't known for their business acumen.
