How is it a bit like that? He complained that Python didn't scale to lots of cores because of the GIL; I said his Python didn't scale because of threading, which interacts badly with the GIL. If you use a shared-nothing approach to parallelizing your Python code, you don't run into that problem. It's not as if shared-state threading happens magically — you have to rewrite your code to use it, too.
Carbon has a very high melting point, never mind boiling point. If you would heat it up that much you would melt the optical port.

However, you can simply heat the carbon (all that energy has to go somewhere). Once it's hot enough it can burn in the chamber - and it would probably be hot enough to ignite the fuel as well.

That said, I don't think soot is that common anyway. Normally you run lean which prevents soot. It does need to be able to self clean, but occasional poor efficiency from soot should not be common enough to hurt.
Like screen savers on LCDs?
I have heard multiple Facebook engineering discussions centered around moving things out of mySQL and into mongo, Cassandra and hadoop. I think this article over emphasizes the Facebook and mySQL connection.

On an unrelated note, does ACM really still use Cold Fusion? And people like to knock PHP.
You can't just slap any old device into an aircraft and call it done. There's huge amounts of money + time that must be invested to get it certified, and it has to be done for each aircraft type. I haven't looked it up, but I'd wager an Iridium transmitter for transport aircraft would be in the 10s of thousands of dollars, minimum.
Purely anecdotal but I dual boot windows/linux(ubuntu) regularly on four separate ultrabooks(from three different manufacturers) with few complaints. (beyond the dearth of updates(that I appreciate anyway)).

Hi, I am a 10+ year experienced software engineer with extensive knowledge of Android.
It would be great to have a quick rendering on the side and split the site in half, left side editing, right side live preview.
No, you should expect to pay up to $20. Sometimes $20, sometimes less.

Under normal market operation, sometimes the market will trade upwards during the time it takes to fill your order and you'll pay in a range from whatever the market started at up to your limit.

Sometimes the market will trade down during the time it takes to fill your order and will never hit your limit, especially if you make the order while there are more sellers than buyers (say BP after the accident).

So over the course of many trades you may be able to expect average execution prices around where the market was initially trading when you placed the order, since sometimes you'll pay nearly exactly that, sometimes you'll pay more, and sometimes less.

But as these HFT limit probing scams become more widespread, execution averages will skew toward being more expensive for the party on the other side of the trade from the HFT, which is typically big mutual and pension funds that deal in millions of shares, or Joe Six-Pack buying through some less-sophisticated Etrade or whatever.
I was about to buy a macbook for this very reason, but then found the Lenovo T500 with the same screen (although not LED-backlit).

I bought it off ebay for a fraction of the macbook price (cheap as a 3G iPad)), and I don't worry nearly as much about spilling water on the keyboard as I would with a macbook.

It's sad that this display option is fairly rare on 15" laptops, many either giving you too low resolutions (1366x768) or absurdly high resolutions (1920x1080)
One word: liquidity!
There were a bunch of people posting about it in the forums when this first happened.
Would it be asking too much to wait for the authors of Readability to do the complaining? The referenced tweet seemed positive about the discovery of the attribution.
You have been able to buy it at fancy health food stores for several years now.
Or Drakaal is a gutless troll who wishes he could write articles that people cared or even talked about. That's also a possibility I guess.
Low-cost medical care? For people in need?

Nah, doesn't sound like Blue Cross at all.

Not sarcastic. Completely serious. IBX costs a fuckton, but is really great insurance.
So <insert big corporation here> wants watsi to stop using their logo by date X, and watsi proceeds to print that logo on t-shirts and sell that logo-laden t-shirt.

Isn't this akin to waving a stack of cash right in front of <insert big corporation here> lawyer's nose?

Is watsi's only saving grace the fact that they are not directly profiting from these t-shirt sales?

Seems kindof risky, no?
Can't answer for the site operator, but you probably won't get into any kind of legal trouble for anything non a non-profit site, especially since commercial use of "Clippy" stopped over a decade ago.
No Pocari Sweat and no Chuhai? I wish I could find Chuhai in the US.
Push notifications, if not available everywhere, but inside user-installed PWAs would fix so many headache. Then again PWA support is general is purposefully abysmal from Apple.
Unfortunately all the distractions seem to have moved to onlyfans.
Shameless plug!

> Pull the other leg. It works once it works for them until now ? ? You're either not paying attention to the article, or you're set in your ways, which id love to hear.

That's not an excuse. If someone is caught for murder and during the investigation it is discovered that they murdered 60 people over the last 5 years. Should they only be prosecuted for the most recent murder because it worked for them until they got caught?

> Fine.. But that was not the agreement drivers had when they signed up. They signed up for cash on the job, gig economy.

Exactly but the agreement the drivers signed falsely classified them as contractors. This is called false self-employment [1]. So the courts decided gig workers are classified as employees according to current laws which means the employer was acting illegally. These laws exist because food delivery apps aren't the first to try to get out of paying social security and other obligations from having employees by declaring they are contractors.

It just doesn't work on my old iPad. Why?
Yeah, but this isn't Big Sur, it's Catalina. But maybe it's the same protection there as well?

The binary didn't work on Ubuntu 18.04 nor CentOS8 either, but I'll report a issue later on today.
But which object does what I need? If a is an array and s is a separator, do I write s.join(a) or a.join(s) or String.join(s, a)?
Thanks! I should also point out the Synthesize project, which makes setting up the entire graphite stack trivial. It was written by another one of the Graphite co-maintainers, the famous Jason Dixon aka obsfuscurity:

A short film based on same story: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tScAyNaRdQ
As someone who's lived in New York a long time... this argument is ridiculous.

New York IS cheap. If Williamsburg is too expensive, go another subway stop out to Bushwick. If that's too expensive, go another subway stop out. Take an extra ten minutes on the subway and enjoy thousands of dollars off your monthly rent.

NYC is absolutely enormous, and there are parts of Brooklyn and Queens that have grown CHEAPER over the past few decades. Admittedly, that's because the criminal elements of NYC have been concentrated there... but cheap is cheap.

NYC is unique among American cities in that our subway infrastructure allows ENORMOUS expansion of affordable housing in virtually every direction at no financial expense and almost no sacrifice in time. It's cheap as hell to live in the South Bronx, for example, and you'll get anywhere in Manhattan relatively quickly. San Francisco simply doesn't have the same flexibility, since the transit there is so god-awful by comparison.

Artists don't get to live in the Upper West Side just because "art!" Go live in edge neighborhoods, of which there are plenty. If you want to complain that neighborhoods are increasingly less walkable and more dilapidated the further out you go... lobby to allow developers to build new, dense buildings out there. The only solution to expensive housing is to build more housing.
Yes, and that same argument can be made for pretty much any other country... why teach computer science to US, as they have shown they can't be trusted - they will probably end up in the NSA!
Perhaps search for Woodbridge. It's safer due to proximity to Wayne State, but still borders low income housing projects. The neighborhood is known for all the buzzwords that are making Detroit cool these days (e.g. urban gardening, art crawls, bicycle slow rolls, etc.)
They could have been a factor, but the Soviets also had an agreement with the Allies that they would declare war on Japan before August 9. They declared war a few minutes before midnight on August 8
The last two sentences of the abstract are:

Our work highlights that, even in free space, the invariance of the speed of light only applies to plane waves. Introducing spatial structure to an optical beam, even for a single photon, reduces the group velocity of the light by a readily measurable amount.

So it appears there is no actual waveguide involved. I guess that means somehow they construct photons in a "waveguide-like configuration" but in free space?
This is really helpful - thanks. A follow up question about volatility - is it true that volatility only really exists when trying to convert to currencies like the dollar or pound but doesn't exist if you remain within Bitcoin? Wouldn't that imply that it's like gold where it's good to buy as much as you can when the price in dollars drops but that once you own Bitcoin the price of goods in Bitcoin would remain constant?
That's no Chromebook! That's a black MacBook running Chrome!
No they just have surprise leaks of data through API usage like for Cambridge Analytica then say they were hacked, when it's all above-board.

Until/unless personal data becomes a liability for corporations they will continue to mine it and let us mortals deal with the fallout.
But it may overheat due to a lack of cooling airflow.
At what point do you allow for any risk management whatsoever? Your arguments against risk management rely on an an event space being large enough such that attempting to prepare for at least some events is absurd. That's the charitable version anyhow since I'm assuming that you actually do want to do risk management, which you discounted out of hand at the beginning just because there are many risks.

Any heuristic to make this more tractable (including ones that eschew having to work with probabilities and thus event space sizes, like the consequence-based approach) works in favor of more prep.
If you want to use Uber afterwards... yes, you already established you'll rely on internet access.
They will do this every time that a business criminal friend of a high government official stands to lose a ton of money.
I'd happily believe that he wasn't consciously racist. But I'd find it hard to believe he had no racial bias; even today things like Project Implicit show most people as biased, and he grew up in a very different era.

But still, I think the way he exaggerates various human race and class characteristics into Essentially Different Peoples and then puts together a giant race war is problematic as anything other than light entertainment. Great battles of Good vs Evil are fine for kids' stories and escapist fantasy, but I think Moorcock and others are spot on that it's troubling to the extent that people take it more seriously.
That comment was an example provided by someone noticing a described behavior, not a recommendation by the author.
I would.

Depending on what you are working on, you can use it how it is right now. It's nicely integrated into gmail, it works good enough for other mail providers. There are modules for probably every big web programming language and for many frameworks, most blogsoftware should have a plugin for it.

I use it in all my personal projects and had no issue with persona itself. The one issue was that the sinatra gem is unmaintained, but there is a fork that works fine.
"a frontend noob like me, I remember my old Jquery days,"

I'm not sure how a frontend noob can have "old jquery days"! Not sure a comparison with jquery is needed. They're different enough, or do some people actually consider using Angular a "step up from" Angular? That would be funny.

Personally I prefer the cross browser/device performance benefit of jquery even for a medium sized app. Potential growth of the app's frontend needs can be met with jquery. It runs quick I've noticed even when it has a ton of work both initially and dynamically. I've thrown a lot at it, too much, and Jquery doesn't mind a high load of elements and updates, especially if you get your loading spinner graphics and display-timing sorted, complex pages can look quite smooth even on mobile. It wouldn't be wise to rule out a good performer like jquery.
That sounds like poor tooling in JS, something solved by say, linkers, in other systems.

And I'm not exaggerating about build times. A simple grunt build doing some basic template stuff would take about 20 minutes. The majority of that time was bringing in the ~13,000 files a rather simple static website needed to build. I ended up tossing the idea of independent builds and just made a persistent build machine that symlinked in node_modules. I've got a million lines of C program that takes less time to fully compile and link.
Cuteness, or 'kawaii' as it is known, is pervasive in Japanese culture.

Great! Thanks Ganesh.
> If you mean by removing section 230

No, I think the next Trump will do what Putin did with VKontakte and will take the company directly from the owners' hands (there are numerous ways to do that even in a Western democracy, the hostile takeover has practically been invented in the US). Of course he (most probably will be a "he") won't do that directly, one of his business friends will help. Things like "removing section 230" are just syntactic sugar that keep us programmers/geeks busy by barking at the wrong tree.
That's why actions must be evaluated on a case by case basis. This time, I support Facebook, but for other actions I make no judgement until I see the facts of the case. That is always the challenge of free, democratic societies. Every actor, public and private, must always be scrutinized. In the 90's, Bill Gates was an unscrupulous monopolist. In 2020, he's at the head of several groundbreaking global health initiatives that he's personally funding. I can support him in one thing while criticizing him for another.

Trump has incited terrorism, he has incited insurrection. The importance of his position in the government makes this situation even more extreme. This is not a routine situation, and if you want to argue there's going to be a slippery slope, then you'll need actual pattern of behavior, not just this extreme situation. Because if not now, then when? When are private parties allowed to say that they're not going to support Trump's treasonous behavior?
I noticed this last night. I mostly watch local news, but I put on CNN during the voting last night, and while the BBC was sorta talking over the voting going on in the background, CNN gave up on it entirely and it was just 5 people spouting outrage.

Even when it's outrage I agree with, it angers me.
See sibling reply, your purported evidence just went up in a puff of smoke.

Although I have a feeling you'd rather wave your hand and say "Aah, Snopes, what do they know, and it's not concrete enough!".

The problem with the "1000's of people with sworn affidavits of violations" is, it seems their understanding what a violation is, are based on misinterpreting (deliberately or not) and wishful thinking. I've seen the videos of people commenting "Look at this security camera footage, they're taking boxes, and those boxes have fake ballots!", without even showing how he came to those conclusions. I could just as easily show a footage of a man walking into a building and claim it's a building where voting machines are stored and he's a hacker with a USB stick that will hack all the machines. I hope all the affidavits were looked at carefully before being dismissed, but it seems like the courts would have work until the sun burns out if it wants to look at every theory.
Put it all into a California high speed rail. That'll do it, economic justice has been achieved.
> genuine dissatisfaction with

... the way President Trump claimed without evidence the elections were run.

Two bedrocks of democracy are that elections are fair so that every vote is counted, and that the people's freedom of speech outweighs the government's freedom of speech, so that governments cannot pull the kind of manipulation and deception that President Trump has been doing so successfully.
When I was a kid, a single phone line was shared between 3 or so homes. If you picked up the phone and heard the neighbors talking, you said sorry and hung up and waited for a while before trying again.

When the phone rang, the ring was morse code for the letter matching the intended home. Our number was 4045D, so our ring was long, short, short.
> The only speech assured by the constitution is from your literal mouth

Even if you are going to narrowly interpret freedom of speech as "constitutionally protected rights only", the US Constitution explicitly says:

Congress shall make no law ... abridging the freedom of
speech, or of the press; or the right of the people
peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for
a redress of grievances.

"of the press" is not "from your literal mouth", pretty much by definition. So please, let's not misrepresent what the constitutional right is about, even if we debate what "of the press" means in today's technology and media environment.
Yeah, I agree that there are many things not fine about mobile push notifications in general. Hence the "" quotes in my previous comment :)
Thinking about how our eyes really work - you don't need the same resolution. You only need proper eye tracking and the right amount of resolution in the center of your vision (or wherever). You only need it to render what you are looking at - I'm sitting about 2 feet away from a 27 inch screen.... I'm never looking at the entire thing in such a way that I need all that detail at every point. Sure, I need it to be there when my eyes dart around... but as long as that's done, it will look just as real.

Given something more adaptive, there's no reason you couldn't have a ginormous holographic wraparound workspace... or whatever your imagination can come up with.
can someone explain what happens when a company IPO vs being acquired? Which is more favorable?
A wonderful relic from back when we dreamed. Contrast the way they talk here with the timidity you hear from scientists and engineers today.

Then: the grandeur of our place in the universe, the likelihood that other life is out there, and the expansive future that awaits us

Now: that rock might be a certain mineral, but we have to be very careful about drawing conclusions...
>If 8chan didn't keep calling the police on people

8chan is actually not a person, and no evidence has been presented that a user of the site has done any such thing. I have noticed a couple of posters in this thread posting a gish-gallop of links (mostly from discredited sources) purporting to prove something, but one sees upon inspection that they in fact do nothing of the sort.
> is not real intelligence

Why is it so hard to remove our self from that equation? Why should intelligence be a skill only humans acquire? It is not only about machines: There is a constant stream of papers revealing animals are not that dumb as thought either. We survived recognizing we are not the center of the universe, may be we are also not alone on the top of the intelligence pyramid.

Latest edge question "What do you think about machines that think?" provides a good and very broad overview of many aspects. I go with George Church: "What do you care what other machines think?"

i built a pc for a family friend around that time... i'd spec'd it with a different drive, but they showed it to the IT guy at their work who recommended seagate. 6 months later the drive stopped working, and it had to be shipped to the other side of the world to be reflashed

You can 'fake' real lambdas in Python, exploiting the things that it does allow. My approach uses continuation-passing style: https://github.com/yawaramin/lambdak
My primary news sources are drudgereport.com for insider news and politics, HN for tech, twitter for various topics and interests, podcasts for news and ultimate issues, cnn.com for big breaking news, and news.google.com for a general overview of the news.

It used to be reddit, but due to the hateful nature of the site, I had to stop reading it.
It's indirected via `chan->data`, which is probably a `void*`. (Implicit) pointer casts between `void*` and other arbitrary types are allowed.
Do you have a design proposal for such a system?
I use one for an alarm clock. It's literally not much good for anything else, though we've taken it on vacation when we needed an additional device for the kids.
I can't tell if you are intentionally or unintentionally obtuse.

Today before we have potato robots. If I don't want to pick potatoes and neither does anyone else, from where do we get potatoes?

I suspect you can't answer this because the answer is we both starve to death.
I disagree that the majority of jobs give people happiness or a reason to live. Like you say, it's been a necessity for all of human history to work. Only now it's not, which is why so much work is meaningless.

Alleviating the threat of death due to unemployment is going to be a positive for most people.
Oh! All Cloud hosting providers that have Ubuntu available provide Canonical with some information. I didn't realize that it was so personal! I'd heard that this information was used for licensing payments.
I don't know of a common (or uncommon) function like this, though I think you could indeed implement it if you really want to (likely via AddVectoredExceptionHandler). It still requires explicitly telling the OS to commit just-in-time, so it's not "overcommitting". The closest built-in thing to this that I know of is PAGE_GUARD, which is internally used for stack extension, but that's all I can think of. The use cases for such a thing would be incredibly niche though—like kind of high-performance sparse page management where every single memory access instruction counts. Like maybe if you're writing a VM or emulator or something. Something that's only appropriate for << 1% of programs.
It was an example. Please don't argue against a strawman.
It’s so strange to me why Google is still sharing these amazing improvements instead of just giving them in a black box. Is it because engineers would go to another organisation with the ideas?
