I'd definitely agree on that though, Nvidia is really good on what they're doing, just disappointed that they don't view the open-source community as a positive.

F*** Oracle definitely, they can't even bother to have a proper SystemD service on systems which uses SystemD, relying on scripts that are definitely not redeeming them.
But it has lots of assumptions/prerequisites about taking the mean baked-in. It happens to work for this particular case, but in general you don't get far with such hand-wavy reasoning since you just get confused with which assumptions hold and which don't.

The original explanation was the actual SIMD approach, which is really cool. You can extend it right away to other problems.
Watching the formula one show on prime was pretty enlightening as far as physical training goes. He spent a lot of time in the gym maintaining his body.
There is no real difficulty switching. At work, we use multiple solutions, including Zoom. Zoom has been the most reliable. If one was more reliable or had a killer feature, we could switch in an instant.

Slack has chat history that makes it difficult to switch. What does Zoom have?
Ok, so, by "medical masks" they mean the cheap isolation masks that come 50 to a box and are in no way rated to block viruses?

I've been told they make literally no difference when it comes to the user becoming infected. Is this study indicating they're worth wearing if you can't get an N95 or P100 mask?
Huh? I know for a fact Qt 5 itself supports fractional scaling because it works on Linux and especially KDE.

I don’t get why things wouldn’t work?

And a large aspect of the game Oxygen Not Included! Makes it even harder they don't model radiative heating..
I don't think that kind of self-defeat is a necessary result of having both teams playing for you. Look at Netflix: They used to be in the DVD rental business, then they went ahead and obsoleted their own business model and are more successful than ever for it. If streaming had failed, they would have still had their traditional role; but it succeeded, and now they're on the cutting edge of the industry. Likewise, a Google-owned media company could experiment with new models that others are too afraid to try.
No, no need to connect HDMI out to anything. I just connect the optical out to my receiver.
Actually, because the container runs on bare metal, there's no need to provision virtual machines before running containers.

Yes, the data center operator needs to install the hardware compute nodes, but after that there's no additional step to provision anything else but the containers themselves.
Android has that.
I don't know. My first memory of it is from Dilbert (and I can find a comic from 1997 with a synergy joke) but I would be surprised if that were the origin of the meme. It's hard to track down even when it started showing up.
I totally disagree.

Don't "Finish your education" first. Do side projects while you're still a student - this is the best time to find other passionate people that are willing to work for nothing and are easy to convince to join you. Also - during studies you usually don't have to worry about your paycheck, so it's easier to spend a lot of time on your thing.

I'd suggest the exact opposite - don't worry about As. As long as you pass you're good. People that focus on As study so much that they don't have time to work on their own stuff and I'd much more like to hire 23 year old with some nice portfolio and Cs than an A student with no portfolio.

And the final piece of your advice I also disagree with. Don't do specs! Specs are for people with experience. If you have no experience there is no way you will make a good design.

Go with the flow, do projects that you're passionate about. Your code will suck, your user interface will suck, but it will get better with time.

This reminds me of an old episode of South Park.

"Feeling warm is a sign of the last stages of hypothermia"
I think to ensure success you need to pursue solutions to problems you actually care about. Unless you have significant time or cash resources I don't think you could get far just picking things you think would be good ideas.

For instance, I wouldn't last 5 minutes starting a project to help potential or new immigrants, recovering drug addicts, or yacht owners. Even though I think those may be valuable niches for solutions, I have no investment in the outcome. I would have no way of judging progress or success without taking someone else's word for it.

I don't think there is any lack of problems you care about if you think hard enough, and if that fails, just take a walk around your neighborhood, your home, your job. Something will piss you off/inspire you soon enough.
I don't understand your issue with hardcoded salts. It essentially works the same way as an HMAC. It is some secret material that further complicates the attackers job...It doesn't mean they react to a successful attack in a different way.

After hashing the password he is storing the hash along with the users random salt, not retroactively applying the salt a second time.
You can install Docker Desktop and then try running it via Docker.

To do so,

# Run the following once
mkdir cloud-image-utils
cd cloud-image-utils
echo FROM ubuntu > Dockerfile
echo RUN apt update >> Dockerfile
echo RUN DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends cloud-image-utils >> Dockerfile
docker build -t cloud-image-utils .

# Now, you will be able to run cloud-localds by running the following
docker run -v $(pwd):/mnt cloud-image-utils cloud-localds -v --network-config=/mnt/network.cfg /mnt/ubuntu.img /mnt/cloud_init.cfg

You can create an alias for the command above to make it easier to use.
This reminds me of something out of one of Neal Stephenson's latest fiction novels, Fall; or Dodge in Hell [0].

The concept of the "web" devolving into a deluge of information ranging from completely false to purely factual that's almost unusable without a moderator. In-universe, moderated streams are available by subscription/hire, with inexpensive "AI" or shared streams with little personalization, all the way up to dedicated moderators that act more like a personal assistant constantly monitoring and updating your personal feed.

It sadly seems like a highly prescient view of what our modern-day internet is becoming. It's taking longer and longer to review multiple takes on a subject to get a full picture and failing to put in that due-diligence makes it hard to shake that feeling that you're just falling into a party-line decision on a subject as more "news" outlets become highly polarized.

Some days I just have to "run dark" on news to get a breather, but then everything seems all the more overwhelming when I get back online and see what new mess has erupted in the news cycle.

I wouldn't say that.

I don't think Sarbox affected the basic economics of VC. The VC's interest and the Entrepreneurs interest are not aligned. That's at the heart of VC. So while it can be good to raise VC financing, other times it can be bad (like we have seen in this case - although to be fair it was good when Tony raised the money, it's just when the credit crisis came around that it was kinda bad).
Well...I mean...to be fair..you can't really blame him. His fiduciary responsibility is to maximize returns for his shareholders.

So, to be quite honest, he is actually doing a great job at that. The issue is that it seems that the VC game is numbered. Entrepreneurs are being more and more turned off of VC - and this definitely won't help the VC's case.
Well, the same author has a recent column in National Review Online about this:

http://article.nationalreview.com/434022/obama-vs-the-ipad/m...

The article includes two quotes from President Obama. The first from a commencement address:

You’re coming of age in a 24/7 media environment that bombards us with all kinds of content and exposes us to all kinds of arguments, some of which don’t always rank that high on the truth meter. And with iPods and iPads, and Xboxes and PlayStations . . . information becomes a distraction, a diversion, a form of entertainment, rather than a tool of empowerment, rather than the means of emancipation.

The second is from an interview with CBS News:

There’s one last point I gotta make, Bob, and that is that I do think part of what’s different today is the 24-hour news cycle and cable TV and blogs and all this. They focus on the most extreme elements in both sides. They can’t get enough of conflict. It’s catnip to the media right now. And so the easiest way to get 15 minutes of fame is to be rude to somebody. In that environment, I think it makes it more difficult to solve the problems the American people sent us here to solve.

Constructing an 'antagonistic to the Internet' argument on the basis of those two quotes seems somewhat, well, challenging - but those seem to be the primary sources.

Would you say that post-Sarbox VC looks very ugly?
I pretty much agree. With ease and ubiquity it will be very useful for some tasks ("hey honey, which of these lamps do you like better"), and for some "big moment" calls ("this is your new grandson"). So, it can be significant even without being a large fraction of overall calls.

Most people like being able to get away with all those little things that the other person can't hear over a phone. Being on camera would seem more stifling/restrictive than freeing in many situations.
Why not something that pops up when you submit that says "Looks like your post could be a copy of these other stories. If yours is different, please check this box." And if you don't check the box, and your story is a copy, the system kills the link and hands all the karma to the original story.
Not really?

"Company markets Product as if it is a Big Deal that people should Definitely Buy" is hardly an interesting or insightful observation.
I would like 12 equal months with 30 days each followed by a 5 or 6 day period of celebration and reflection between the prior and next year. Each month could also then be made of 5 six day weeks (or 6 five day weeks). Making the celebration between "years" a "week long thing.

Or how about starting the year on the equinox or the solstice?

Both would improve the calendar in my opinion.
You'd have to separate out the effect of AC though. In the hottest and wettest parts of the country, people may actually live more of their lives in cold and dry air-conditioned environments than in the north...
By the same token we should not call running 5km running, since it is different from running a marathon.

"That isn't a reason against incest per se. It is merely an objection to certain forms of incest - specifically, those that lead to children."

And, you know, child rape by a family member. Which is probably, by far, the most common form of incest.

The purchase of MySpace's parent company was $580 million. Apparently $327 million of that was "attributed" to MySpace itself.

Revenues are meaningless. MySpace last reported a profit in 2007, of $10 mil on $550 mil in revenue.

Facebook then proceeded to eat MySpace's lunch.

August 2010 article about how News Corp. may never profit from MySpace:

MySpace's current market value is nowhere close to the $5 billion you claim. It has been hemorrhaging market share to Facebook for years.

Multiple PiP is a great idea
I literally just started a new sass on AWS and only have spend about 80$, today I got a call from a rep from their primary headquarters (unlike Google) , and he applied a 300$ initial credit and I can email him for a questions/support. No pressure just all around nice.

I've had similar calls from google in the past that were disasters, just someone hammering the up sales button, I actually had to block a google rep on my phone.
My town is fully built out, so it's not being imposed upon anyone except perhaps developers. Nobody can purchase a house and tear it down and build four in it's place. The lot is only zoned for one house.
I'm not saying China can't sink a carrier or two.

What I am saying is that if they do we have a backup of about 40-50 more. And that's not even counting Nato.

Or the fact that hundreds of other ships and subs led by Navy folks that are far better trained and with better equipment than anything China or Russia could ever hope to compete with in the next 15-20 years at best.

My point isn't that China can't give us a bloody nose or two, it's just that they are so far behind the NATO force's militaries that we don't need to waste another few trillion on the latest greatest tech.

Well, $100M for a device intended to be shot at!

A device that's faster and slicker than everything else. That has a version that can fly vertically.

If you're in the sf bay area, go take a tour of the SS Jeremiah O'Brien when things reopen. It's a WWII Liberty Ship freighter. They built well over 2000 of these things, fast, and cheap, to haul military stuff from continent to continent. They had to be fast to build: many were needed. They had to be reasonably cheap: the enemy sank many of them.

And, look at the design of this here Hacker News web app. Functional. High capacity. Simple.

Why can't US weapons factories build stuff like liberty ships and simple web sites, that work and are serviceable?

Too many committees? Too many senators? Unwillingness to tell some branch of the service (the Marines) to use helicopters? Another branch (the Navy's aircraft-carrier service) to use purpose-built planes?

I wonder if engineering and business schools should reintroduce this thing I was taught in college. "Any clod can build something heavy for a dollar. It takes skill and dedication to build something light for a quarter."

Grumble.
You need a purpose behind progress. Look at any of the major developments of the 20th century and there is something huge providing the motivation.

Science continues on and incredible discoveries are made all the time. But when it comes to building incredible things... there just isn’t any push for it right now.

> It is clear to me that Trump and his surroundings have no qualms about fabricating "truths" in whatever quantity fitting whatever narrative to match their aims.

This is how politics has been for a while. Trump just adopting the winning strategy employed by Obama, Bush, Clinton, etc.

> I fully admit that I am not privy to the perspective of and influences on Trump supporters at large and capitol stormers in particular. However, the idea that there is a meaningful bar of evidence to clear before his supporters buy into his statements appears largely unfounded to me.

Yeah, people usually presume things they like to be valid, the same way they accept news media and blog posts uncritically when they agree with them. Its definitely part of the human condition and not anything significantly different among the different partisans these days.

> And let me be perfectly clear that virtually every human will believe a convenient "truth" at some point or another. But given the degree to which Trump's entire sphere of influence has supported any outlandish, nonsensical or downright contradictory thought he expresses, I do not see how election integrity measures would have moved the needle in this regard. (Which is not to dismiss the need for them, just their influence on this attack).

I'll just point out that there's a lot more diversity of opinion about trump on the right than you're aware of, which is normal. I hear the same shit from people on the right about people on the left.

> [0]: https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/politics/trump-claim...

Yeah, he's a politician. This is no different than Pres. Obama "you can keep your insurance if you like it", "You didn't build that", "I'm going to close Guantanamo Bay", etc. You can say that t told more whoppers, I'm not interested in disputing that. Politicians lie, if you're going to hold one accountable then you need to be consistent. But holding politicians to their word doesn't really get much traction, its always seen as partisan.
https://www.builder.io/ can drop into existing websites, static and framework. Pretty cool stuff, though unfortunately the interesting part is closed source. You can request the page once from their API and then save it for serving (rather than using their default method / setup).

https://grapesjs.com is an open source option, but will require some investment to get it working for your situation.

There is also Wordpress, Squarespace, and Webflow. Webflow has a CMS section. Netlify has some options here too, CMS system with a web UI.

I personally use Hugo (https://gohugo.io) and Webflow. Planning to use something with grapes+hugo to replace webflow.
Many of them were also carrying guns. No idea who thought it'd be a good idea to just stand down and let them in, but my guess is that making martyrs of them would push us closer to something like the beginning of a civil war.

"The light we see is old. It’s of interest for studying the science of bright old things but for anything contemporary it is useless. If you ignore our own star and count out the ancient starlight, the sky is completely dark to us."

Even sunlight is really old.

The photons from our own star, the sun, were produced 100,000 years ago. That's how long they take to make their way to the surface from center of the sun where the nuclear fusion occurs.
Yep, 5V tolerant CPLDs are a wonderful thing when you're making hardware for retro computers it would absolutely suck if the 9500XLs get discontinued.
> This is literally the entire argument against racism: judging someone for physical traits that have no bearing on their character

Isn't it the "no bearing on character" thing that's the issue? Rather than the "physical" bit?

> 2. It would cost money and be an identity change, so not everyone could/would do it.

This would also hold for political ideas.

> I can't believe anyone is seriously asking questions like this in 2021. Read a book.

Please consider whether what you are saying is more than empty posturing. If you actually did want to educate people you wouldn't say "read a book", you'd mention a particular book.

If that is the case, it means that the people who attack you have already lost as well.
The python overhead is something I've noticed as well in a system that runs a lot of python scripts. Especially with a few more modules imported, the interpreter and module loading overhead can be quite significant for short running scripts.

Numpy was particularly slow during imports, but I didn't see an easy way to fix this apart from removing it entirely. My impression was that it does a significant amount of work on module loading, without a way around it.

I think the other side of "surprisingly slow" is that computers are generally very fast, and the things we tend to think of as the "real" work can often be faster than this kind of stuff that we don't think about that much.
> bypassed some slow GDI functions

I think it is mainly just the scroll operation. You can visually see the process speeding up as you reduce the height of the console window.

Typically I reduce it to a couple of lines, then it goes several times faster yet I can keep an eye on it.
It’s all uncritically regurgitating ‘science’ until the science shows things you don’t want to see. Then it’s “What do you think?”

What I think is that this is serious and needs to be studied and is another side effect of vaccines that needs to be taken into account when people make a voluntary, informed choice whether to take them or not.
Problem is, eventually you will have to debug stuff. That's when simple solutions start making difference.
Ok. That's a bit different. Somebody who has been at the company for 7 years should also have the sense to ask around. But you are also right. I've worked with mathematicians and PHD's much smarter in the domain than me who wrote spaghetti code and often couldn't see the point in good code hygiene.
Apart from push notifications, which I don't think a lot of people want from their web apps, in what way are they being crippled by Apple?
You must ask for explicit consent first if you really want to use Google Ads. You cannot requires to send the user data to Google or block the access, though you may get away with that. Some websites in Europe also have an option between paid access or ads with tracking which may be legal.

a debatable claim. There are several scenes in the intro I would not want to have paused fullscreen in a work environment.
> Bram: I have to admit I don’t use many plugins, other than what is included with the distribution (such as matchit and termdebug). When I need something I tend to either make a quick hack or add it to the Vim base. That’s the luxury of being the creator :-).

This so much. There are amazing plugins out there, but for almost everything I really need, they are overkill. vim comes with so many things included out-of-the-box (just look at netrw), and for the few things I need on top of that, ahcking together a small function bound to a <leader>Key combo which calls an external script is usually enough.
Great resource, a surprisingly clear and detailed introduction to the various attacks faced by websites!

The relevant part:

> "we concluded that approximately 1 in 380 http requests coming out of Tor is verified to be malicious, while only 1 in 11,500 http requests coming out of a non-Tor ip were verified to be malicious. In essence, an http request from a Tor ip is 30 times more likely to be a malicious attack than one that comes from a non-Tor ip."
DAT! I'd pretty much forgotten them-- in my first post-college job I had to manage a backup system that used them, swapping them each night before I went home. It really hammered home the importance of backups when someone completely hosed a database and I had to restore things.
So the tweet that wasn’t taken down is the one that isn’t a call to violence. Good to know.
