For the purposes of this discussion, you really should be looking at more than just the current generation of chips, because the installed base that OS vendors have to worry about includes a lot of processors that are more than 18 months old, and a lot of processors from the budget product lines. The 5th generation parts so far are just ultra-low power tablet and ultrabook CPU, so almost all of the 4th-gen Haswell parts are still current.

Intel's been a lot better about including VT-d on laptop chips, especially recently, and haven't disabled it on the consumer rebrands of their server chips (the "i7 Extreme" parts) in the past few generations, but did on earlier generations. Among the desktop parts, they've been all over the place, and most notably all but two of their flagship overclockable desktop processors (-K models) have had it disabled. Those models have most likely outsold their i5 and i7 counterparts that do have VT-d, and probably themselves been cumulatively outsold by the i3, Pentium, and Celeron processors that also lack VT-d. A raw count of the model numbers shows that in the time since VT-d has been released, the desktop processor models have been split 134 to 63 in favor of not supporting it.

The overall picture is that VT-d support is at least as hit-or-miss as HyperThreading support, which the Steam Hardware Survey finds to be present on about two thirds of Intel machines. Motherboard firmware support for VT-d is even worse, and of those that do support it, it's usually off by default.
I have worked in both a private office and an open floor plan. I do really enjoy working around other people in an open office, and it makes impromptu planning more accessible, which I believe aids productivity for self organizing teams.

The downside is, as you mentioned, that it can be really difficult to get focused work done. This is especially true if there are other teams sharing the same open space (project managers, designers, etc, etc). The thing that really made it better for me was to get a pair of noise canceling headphones and listen to the right music while I coded. That pretty effectively blocked out almost all of the external noise, or at least brought it down to a level where it wouldn't break into my head space and kill my concentration.

There is still the problem of people feeling more free to interrupt you for every little thing if you are in an open office layout. The only way I've found to mitigate that has been to just try to inform people (in a nice way) how I work and what it does to my productivity when someone breaks in on me during the middle of something. I also try to have a couple of blocks of regular non-coding time during which I keep my headphones off, usually right after team meetings. That way everyone knows that when there is a good time to come talk to me.

At the end of the day I do like the way collaboration works in an open office, but it does require some extra effort to stay productive when your job requires a lot of very directed concentration.
I'm sorry, what?

Yes, it looks like Github has been pulled into a fight not entirely related to their initial mission. But that's how principle flows, you never know when the free flow of information will turn into a larger fight.

I very much hope that they, and whatever networking partners they're working with, see this through. Because it's bullying bullshit by the Chinese government, trying to make people shut up because that government doesn't like what they are saying. GitHub is a company in America, not in China, and I hope they and their partners have the principles to stand up for the right to say what you think in America. If, by the magic of technology, those statements end up readable somewhere else, so much the better.

Because if GitHub folds to this sort pressure, that pressure will just move on to the next site willing to host something that maybe the Chinese government doesn't like.

You can make your accomodationist crap sound as reasonable as you like. It still amounts to giving in to censorship, and letting other people tell you what you can and can't say. I don't admire that, not one bit.
>People who know Mexican Spanish may not be able to understand your Spanish, especially the ones who didn't learn Spanish as a first language.

I think this is an exaggeration(Like saying a Brit can't understand an American or something). The meaning of some words may be different but to say they can't understand each other is a far stretch.
Some countries still use the vosotros conjugation but I don't think that is going to be an issue.
When the CEO sells their stock to convert to cash they can actually use to buy things, they pay taxes. Stock isn't some magical way to avoid paying taxes.
These systems cruise along for years, and when something finally does go belly-up, I can't remember how I set it up in the first place.

This happened a few times to me over the years and then I was lucky enough to go on a packer/terraform course.

Now everything is scripted and stored in git. A Gitlab job rebuilds the VMs from scratch every two weeks to include the latest bugfixes and updates.

It was a lot of work at first but actually most of it was a learning experience.
I work on digital advertising for a franchise where each individual store manages their own shopify site at location.franchise.com. Soon, these sites won't be able to run ads that track purchases, unless franchise.com is added to this list.

I understand the PSL managers' position that this is an unfair burden to place on them though.
Specifically, when it comes to entertainment and mass market stuff like this, the rules have always been crystal clear:

1. Make us money. Make us so much goddamned money. If you don't, we'll probably just get rid of you at some point

2. Don't embarrass us, cost us money, waste our resources, bring media scrutiny upon us, make literally any small part of our life even a little bit more difficult, or screw with us.

Rule 2 is a very flexible scale that depends on rule 1. Wasn't there that streamer that abused her cat live on stream and she still is a golden child of the platform?
> I can think of fewer things less inline with classical American Constitutional ideals than to cheer on organizations that hunt down individuals and silence them for thoughts expressed on other platforms.

The moderation team of twitch is pretty much universally hated by the internet. I don't think anybody is cheering them on.
Matrix fits the bill. It's federated - you can have rooms and conversations across homservers seamlessly today. There are several implementations for both server and client.

It's still a way to go to be 100% though; for example portable identities - right now your user account is tied to a specific homeserver, yours or somebody elses. And first class tor (or i2p?) support with enough federation over either. Performance of synapse and elemnt, spoecifically, are also pretty poor.

I really think it's on the right track though - all my reservations for matrix in its current state have been recognized by the maintainers and are on the roadmap.
Drawing attention to government budgets isn’t sufficient because most people just assume “someone else” will pay for them.
>Isn't parallelism complicated and practically dangerous in most mainstream languages?

Yes, but functional languages solve this problem.
I originally developed a WASM port of wxWidgets for https://dj.app/. When it came time to open source wxWidgets-wasm, I decided to port another complex app as a test case, and Audacity seemed like the obvious choice. In the process, I also needed to write a new host API for PortAudio for playback and recording in the browser.

No doubt this sense of entitlement to the service of others is due to some sort of social contract the site operators implicitly agreed to by breathing oxygen, right?
I'm still using my 2013 MBP on a daily basis. Fucking beast. Though I need to do a battery swap.

Far superior to my 2019 MBP my employer got me.
This will happen under any dosing schedule, because we already know the vaccine doesn't become effective until some time after the first dose. (Which is also one of the reasons it's hard to tell exactly how much benefit the second dose gives.)
Entirely true. There are crimes, particularly ones against the body politic, where it a reasonable disincentive on top of the reparative justice of paying for cleanup, though. Reparations are still important--but those reparations will just not raise enough of a threat to prevent it from being done again. Adding some blood is really the only option.

Because, candidly, the poor aren't dumping toxic waste in factory quantities.
Would be cool to see this also done with Ghidra's new (in git) debugger support.
Maybe. But curation on that scale ain't free and I don't have time for that.

Anyways, I thought OP was more interested in overlap than specific recommendations. How are we going to see overlap when there's tens of thousands of possible channels? Any who can't search for youtube channels in their interests?
> Once more, evidently you and I have been living on different planets for the past year.

I wish you would detail what exactly you disagree with instead of replying with quips like these.

> my wife and I started doing that around the end of February--and social distancing and all the other common sense precautions that any responsible adult should be taking when there's a pandemic, no matter what any so-called "experts" say

Did you also stop touching all surfaces/disinfecting your phone, groceries, etc.? If so, then that decision turned out to be pointless. If not, you had no reason not to at the time since we didn't know if surfaces, air, or other vectors were most responsible for infection. Social distancing was highlighted very early on. I think you're judging decisions made then with hindsight bias.
> and this year we're celebrating 60th anniversary of Spootnik.

Gagarin's flight, of course.
> The problem comes when you try to define this phrase in a way that’s not a tautology.

Economists solved that one along time ago: revealed preference.

> Our current economic system defines economic productivity to be the thing that generates the highest economic returns according to the rules of the system.

That's because our current economic system is not a free market, so instead of reflecting the revealed preferences of people making choices in a free market, it reflects the revealed preferences of politicians and financial institutions.

There's no reason an economy has to work that way. Our does because it's driven by politics, not economics.

> Without an independently derived set of values

What people want is an independently derived set of values.
Don't use your credit card as a free money ticket and you should be fine

> Norwegians tend to be more financially responsible

I'd say that's being responsible, period. A lot of Americans aren't
Which IIUC should give him a larger fraction of your donation (all but payment processor fees for now, minus 10% after the beta ends), or you could pledge at https://liberapay.com/on/github/marcan/ and let him choose to take whatever fraction he wants (also excluding processor fees, forever ±).

Oh poop. I'm the ezl from the github repo where that source lives. Was hoping we'd have more time to fix it before being embarassed.

HNOH was intended to be a quick weekend project (famous last words). We didn't quite make it in the weekend, so we just let it hang out in his half complete state.

rguzman, smalter, and I have been meaning to put some love into it, but we've been slammed working on what we think will be our real startup, http://www.leasely.com, so we've not really carved out the time.

Its broken and buggy, the calendar features don't work right, and there are issues with creating/canceling recurring office hours. We'd LOVE for this to be used in real life, but its not in a state we can really say we're super proud of yet. We want anyone who wants to be involved to get involved, so if you have hours to donate, please get in touch.

The heavy lifting was done by HN users: rguzman, deuterium, C Allen from NYC (github.com/bitemyapp/, http://bitemyapp.com), and a few others.

So we f-ed up, there are still bugs, and its been on the backburner since we're trying to work on leasely but now we've been embarassed into fixing the bugs so we will.

[edit: linked to C Allen's github and personal page]
Nextcloud and DAVx5 by chance?
Even if they do manage to make it unique, who actually cares?

You have a token and a jpeg. I have the exact same jpeg. It's not an original in a gallery vs. a mass market print, the copies are identical.

Why should anyone care about who owns the damn token?
Glad the person landed on their feet. Can’t help but think this could have been titled ‘from a van down by the river’

I just spent 20 minutes on imgui, as well as retained-mode and immediate-mode, and boy do people love to reinvent the wheel.

My guess: they're going to gloat over immediate-mode for a decade or two, then some folks are going to develop retained-mode code (library/framework/whatever) on top of imgui, and then they're going to gloat over that for another decade. And they'd reach a point where we are today. Fantastic.

The guy in the famous 40-minute video, the beginning of which explains RM vs IM, appears to make claims that he's too busy and doesn't have time writing research papers. Wow. He discovered IM on his own probably, and reached the conclusion that he's discovered something no one else has discovered and should be writing a research paper. Jeez.
It doesn't matter so much if MBTI is "real" as much as the fact that it's constantly applied in the wrong ways.

Using MBTI / big five to help narrow down the selection of a sales candidate? Okay. Choosing only sales candidates with a specific MBTI / big five? Crap.
> For a concrete example, there was a recent initiative in my state (California Prop 16) which was reasonably unpopular and ended up losing by a 14 point margin. But most journalists strongly favored it, and reported from that perspective - they didn't want to buy into the "view from nowhere". So a lot of my news-consuming friends had no idea there was honest, well-intentioned opposition to it, and to this day I see people argue the voters must have just been confused.

I think that Rosen would agree that that's bad reporting. Dispensing with the "view from nowhere" isn't about discarding arguments from all but a favored side. It's about discarding "neutral" framing devices that don't inform the reader (such as the "he said/she said" and the "horse race"). "X said A. Y said B" is factual and neutral, but it doesn't help the reader develop a deeper understanding of the parties involved or the topics at hand.
NZ has never been covered entirely since it first arose.

That said, all of our endemic fish are either amphidromous (can live in fresh or salt water, bullies, and the larval phases of most galaxiids) or if not, most likely descended from other galaxiids that were - e.g., the alpine galaxias. Galaxiids are found in Australia and South Africa also.

https://niwa.co.nz/freshwater-and-estuaries/nzffd/NIWA-fish-...

> It is thought that the non-diadromous species of Galaxiidae have evolved from the diadromous species, probably after geological events caused them to become land-locked. Gradually, these species have developed separate populations and distinguishing characteristics.
It's a question I hadn't really considered before. On first pass, as far as I know, I'd say the answer is no. It isn't clear to me what the objective of embedding Coq with a C api for example would be. The very core of Coq is about verifying proofs and not producing them and I'm not sure what the benefit of embedding it is.

Having said that there are a few projects that may be something like what you're asking. First off, Coq has the SerAPI project https://github.com/ejgallego/coq-serapi through which external programs can talk to coq. This has been used for example to make a python OpenAi gym like interface https://github.com/princeton-vl/CoqGym.

A different direction might be something like MetaMath Zero https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.10703 which is intended to be a small and fast verifier for it's language, perhaps maybe someday for embedding in applications. There is this notion of "Proof Carrying Code" which I don't really know what the current state of the art is. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof-carrying_code One might want an easily embeddable trusted verifier for that purpose. I don't know.
Nah I'm pretty sure that's the reason
Right, so how did it work?
You mean babyboomers who stole their children's future?
The cops didn't take down the videos based on copyright. A company did, but, that is apparently acceptable because companies can sensor whoever they please (or at least that is the common view on hacker news).
Mainly because I’m helping other people be able to code. One of the interesting things about the 10x engineer meme is that they’re 10x because they improve the productivity of their team. Well extend that to DevRel and that’s maybe another order of magnitude or two of effect again. Extend that to the average person looking to build and it’s another order or perhaps two again. Hopefully the stuff I’m doing now will get ten people off the ground immediately (I already know it’s reached at least this many people) but another 1000 going this year and another 10,000 if not more going over the next two years.

Whereas my programming and design work has only reached tens of thousands interacting with it over the last two years this is hopefully seeding for a big future.
This is a neat hack, and cool that there's examples for a wide vareity of languages.

I've been using WebJack (https://github.com/publiclab/webjack) wrapped with a better coding scheme for some similar work, I'm curious why ggwave is intended to use such a low bitrate - I'm able to get pretty good free-air reliability at 1200baud.

IIUC Tesla's value comes in part from failed bets against it. Investors looking to make a buck off its imminent failure were instead forced to pay out, in greater proportion, hedges made on those short bets, when it survived.

The same thing happened with GME, just on a shorter time scale and with the completely out-of-context event of retail traders being shut out of the buy side of market trades for several days. We do not know what would have happened had GME continued to be freely traded on a day it had reached over $500 a share premarket.
I had RSI and switched to a kinesics advantage. My RSI somewhat went away but not completely.

Eventually I figured out I had cubital tunnel syndrome from sleeping with my arms above my head. A few weeks with a new pillow and sling and I was back to 100%.

Typing pain may be a prominent feature of RSI, but very commonly it is not the root cause.
The opportunity extends beyond support for x86 devices in that more traditional hardware switches etc. should also work with openflow.

I've found there's lots of OSS around the controller and virtual switches for testing/lab but the only serious openflow agent designed for hardware switches I've found is Big Switch's Indigo[1] it has very limited hardware support.

I see experimental support in OpenWRT - this is very interesting as it opens up a shed load of hardware options.

> i don't see why suggestions that we discuss it get routinely downvoted.

Because this kind of meta-discussion is explicitly off-topic:

"Suggests." However, the fact that there is a web GUI tells us they can read the data.
I didn't say anything about penalizing people. If you are so gifted that you can take college courses in 7th grade then be my guest but you'd be surprised to know that in most other nations what people learn in 6th and 7th grades is what the US students learn in 11th and 12th grades. The point is that educators should be focused on educating instead of providing a custom tailored product to suit the prevailing political climate in order to funnel more dollars to their school's districts. Removing all the testing and separation and holding everyone to the same standards makes it much easier to apportion tax dollars in a fair way. Currently there are so many bureaucratic layers and so many constantly changing rules that by the time textbooks are published they are already out of date and new ones have to be ordered for the next school year. Obviously this only benefits the book publishers who are more than happy to reprint materials sometimes even different materials for adjoining states and get paid for it.
Seriousness? Well, I suppose that depends on the intent...

It's pretty well known that any BGP node can redirect blocks at will, if they're trusted by their neighbors (or enough of them, anyway).

If it was an intentional "proof of concept" attack, then I'd guess it worked pretty well. It's not too hard to invent what Bruce Schneier would call a "movie plot" scenario where the Chinese government redirects all the traffic that they want to themselves, with the average internet denizen completely unaware (because all of the major browsers trust the Chinese government's CA, which means that they can produce signed, trusted certs for any website that they want), basically committing an internet-sized man-in-the-middle attack.

Of course, there are some practical issues to get around, plus doing that would probably (hopefully?) be considered an act of war...and that's ignoring the ramifications to China's current economic model, which (while I'm not an econ guy) tells me that they don't want to screw up by enticing a global embargo of cheap plastic crap.

So basically, what's the intent? If it's malicious, it's serious. If it's not malicious, then it's really no different than any of the other few times this sort of thing has happened.
Part of the problem is that [christian audigier glasses] is a difficult query. Why? Because most of the content on christianaudigier.com is about clothes. There's only a few pages about glasses, and even those pages don't seem to have the word "glasses" on them. Instead, they almost exclusively use the word "sunglasses." Here's the search results for [christian audigier sunglasses] for example:

http://www.mattcutts.com/images/christian-audigier-glasses.p...

As you can see, the official website has three of the top four results in that case. In essence, you're asking [brandname X] to return brandname.com when the word X doesn't actually appear anywhere on site. That's fundamentally a hard query. We have made progress on queries like that, and certainly folks at Google are talking about how to do better on such queries in the future.
