The M1 is a poor example to lead into an otherwise great post.

The big leap with the M1 is the power efficiency. No amount of optimized code is going to keep Intel from running hot: installing Win95 on a latest-gen Intel laptop would be whip-fast, but wouldn't result in all-day battery life.

An opinionated and lengthy intro like that serves as an invitation for readers to bail out before they get to the meat of the post: which would be a pity in this case, because it's worth reading.
So... who's everyone switching to? I've got two companies I have to move now.
I completely agree. Elsewhere we see sanity by default, in Python there's still open questions and hopeful but early stage projects.
Your link to "algorithmic architecture" was such a letdown. These guys weren't doing architecture, they were just making a flashy Apple ad! Can you expand on what you mean when you call the Stripe globe and the Apple ad "state of the art"? I assume you don't mean that these are some of the most technically proficient graphics you've seen, because that would just be silly.

And comparing something developed by a design studio with god-knows-how-much rendering time to something designed in-house that runs live in your browser seems a little strange.
Ooo, you are right. Thanks for the tips!

This is probably directly related to harassment that streamer/youtuber Drift0r was subjected to at the hands of another streamer.

Yeah it's pretty good. There are plenty of problems and holes of course, but for most pure-Python packages it does a nice job most of the time.

If you're an expert, you can do it with setup.py or setup.cfg, but I don't think it's normally worth the trouble.
No, Facebook. Facebook is telling companies to use the PSL. The PSL people are saying, “we give no guarantees about how long it will take us to add a domain to the PSL”. They could drag their feet so long as to make the PSL useless. To make sure it works, I could see Facebook wanting to get some of their people into position so that they can immediately approve PRs on the PSL.

I can’t think of any reason Apple would want to support the PSL.
Last time I looked into this, Apple actually used quite a bit of clever crypto engineering to protect user privacy. It's not just a big database of locations that Apple keeps.
Run, meditate, find a way to give back. Perhaps set a challenge to make the business turnkey.
> Is the money saved by axing that many employees really going to be greater than hiring replacements for EV development?

Yes.

My prediction : They will act like any other automotive group.

They will fire a bunch of experienced (read: overpaid) workers, hire interns from local colleges for dirt cheap, promise them the world in advancement, abuse them until 90 percent of them leave for greener pastures, continue abusing the remaining 10 percent until the next market initiative 'forces' you to 'cut jobs' so that you can 'shift to electric', that way you remain the good guy (we're evolving to save the world!), while achieving whatever business stratagems actually prompted the move.

Now is a prime time to do this kind of thing, the colleges are going to be filled to the brim with students who are eyeballing EV technologies.

It's pretty win-win (for the unfired).

Really, it's just a hidden factory re-basing strategy, and it's employed all over aerospace, too.

It'll probably happen again whenever there is some huge technology leap , legislative change, or social consensus.
I thought plastic was inert?
> Point being — can ML techniques be used to reverse hashes or find collissions? Immovable object vs irresistible force?

That's actually a good philosophical observation. And there is an answer for that.

If you try to use ML on an encrypted data set then it will blow up and won't converge. The encrypted data contain a lot of randomness while the ML would assume the presence of a not insignificant amount of continuity, linearity and correlation.

Trying to train a network on encrypted data would blow it up as it would not be able to find a convergence point in any observable time. The effort would be equivalent to trying to bruteforce the encryption.

But if you have a few million years, a few PBs of storage and some extravagant network training algorithm based on mutations, who knows.
I think that counts as doing something
Just checked the GitHub license page (https://github.com/browserless/chrome/blob/master/LICENSE.md).

> This work is dual-licensed under GPL-3.0 OR the browserless commercial license. You can choose between one of them if you use this work.

So it's clearly GPLv3 (no loophole required), which AFAIK does allow closed source proprietary use within a company so long as the program isn't redistributed externally (perhaps the developer didn't understand that?). It seems that the licensing section in the readme should have it's wording adjusted somewhat.

In fact, I think you're even in the clear to run a proprietary cloud service using GPLv3 code which is why the AGPL (among others) exists. Some recent drama (https://techcrunch.com/2019/05/30/lack-of-leadership-in-open...) for reference.

(Oddly, the header underneath that states "GPL-3.0-or-later" which is a bit inconsistent.)
A quick look at what Quicklisp has to offer for libraries should quickly convince people that fooling around with anything but Common Lisp would be very energy-consuming.

I think the interest in dynamic errors (which is what most of the error libraries deal with) comes from (1) people learning Rust and trying to get them to do something besides `unwrap`, (2) people prototyping and not wanting to use `unwrap`, and (3) applications where a lot of errors you just want to bubble up with some context.

Kind of like Eminem and Michael Vick, it'll probably work.
I don't think it works the way author expects it to work, as the math is not correct. Think about `a+1 < 2` comparison. To remove +1, you need to change it to `a < 2-1`, not to `a < 2+1`; the operation needs to be transformed to the opposite one, which in this case would imply shifting the timezone in the opposite direction.

If you are asking about the timezone shift applied to a date, I think the engine converts the date to 00:00:00 timestamp and then does the timezone conversion.
Yes, and the panels in this truck have a reinforcing crease.

Tesla does: https://futurism.com/the-byte/tesla-wildfires-bioweapon-defe.... It's an optional upgrade. I ordered it for my Model S because, at the time, Hawaii was experiencing really bad VOG, which my girlfriend was extremely sensitive to. On bad days, she could retreat to the Tesla, activate BioWeapon Defense mode, and experience some relief.
I hope someone invents a "coal"-roller add-on that emits high pressurized steam (builds it up for 5 minutes, then releases it when the engine is pressed hard). But it's got to be white vapor not black, as it will need to represent the green nature of what Tesla owners are buying into.
Fair enough, that's very true.
I got tired of using font CDNs, didn't like extra round trips for the woff files, and I also really liked open-sans, so I made an OpenSans.css which inlines all the OpenSans fonts.

It makes my life a little more convenient.

That's why we need HTTPS everywhere.

I really hope letsencrypt.org takes off.
PHP is just a language that so many of the so called programmers here like to bash. I doubt many have even used it, they take a quick look at the hello world and just write it off. But in reality, the language makes so little difference to most projects, it's more about the ecosystem, the jars for java, the packages for python, these are what propel a language to productivity highs. Imagine python without BeautifulSoup or numpy or scipy or any of a hundred packages I use daily. Imagine Java/scala without Mahout etc etc. The actual syntax is almost irrelevant to anyone that can articulate good software design in code.

It's like giving a pencil to Picasso and suddenly implying anything he draws will be shit just because he's not using paint. Utterly ridiculous arguments by the pseudo intellectuals here trying to convince themselves how smart they are for using Haskell. Meanwhile, real software developers just get on with writing good clean code in whatever language they want.
It feels like it's been zero-sum for a very long time.
Sure - you can implicit srcloc or capture the Exception, both of which preserve it; but that's not the default behaviour and it's not what we recommend to beginners.

If you go onto the scaladoc for Either today, you see a stringly-typed Either where they discard the Exception.
Oh geez, I'm an idiot. Sorry friend.
It became easy over 25 years ago when the first brokerages went online. Is it easier now? Yes. But it's been simple and painless for years.
> The judge must mean intrusive in the sense of a violation of your person (or something to that effect).

My car does not store private digital information. Well, the infotainment/GPS system might have a record of where I've been, but if CBP wants to collect that every time I cross the border that seems excessive. My phone/laptop has a lot more sensitive information than that and looking at that most certainly is "a violation of your person". You might not be physically violating me, but it's still a violation as codified in various other laws on transmuting/accessing digital information without consent.

The bottom line is, if you want complete access to my digital life get a warrant from one of the many rubber-stamp judges at your disposal. If you can't even be bothered to that much, I don't think you actually need my information but just want an intimidation tool.
That drove me nuts, but you can turn it off with a defaults setting. I don’t have it at hand but it’s easily googleable

Nick, "bit flipping attacks" imply that attackers can make messages say whatever they want to. They do not simply mean attackers can inject "random gibberish".

Furthermore, your nonce problem doesn't mean attackers can inject messages; it means attackers can cryptanalyze messages.

It would be helpful, before trying to implement cryptographic security for other people, for you to spend some time researching cryptography. A great way to do that is to learn how to attack cryptosystems in other applications. Maybe that should be your next project.

Best of luck, Nick.
I mentioned this in the other thread, but hardware (and industrial design) is where Apple has greater expertise (and competitive advantage) over the competition. They are widening their moat.

Most of these hardware innovations translate directly to new/enhanced user experiences. And competitors like Google don't build phones - they build software. They are limited to what phone manufacturers (experts in phones - not software) can develop technologically.

This is not to say Android won't have greater market share - I just believe Apple realizes Google as a threat, and now heading in a direction that will be tricky for them to follow.
To the (I assume) idealist that downvoted me; can you provide your rationale? The above is an actual response of rare people facing a moral dilemma. I did not mean to encourage anyone to do this, I was merely providing an antithesis to the parent.

They searched him very thouroughly. They didn't find any explosive. So it was clearly a false positive. The way they treated him was absolutely disgusting.

Farming. Bought a small farm 5 years ago. It consumes life
outside of work but brilliantly and is a range of hobbies in itself.

As a 'unhandy' person before I've learnt (by my standards anyway) a solid range of new skills.

Managing horses, cattle, dogs (including training one to herd) and chickens.

I can drive machinery like tractors, dozers and currently beginning to learn to drive a bobcat. Also learnt how to ride a dirt bike.

Lots of tools like chainsaws, fencing gear and drills etc and the tasks that go with them. I want to learn welding at some point but am holding off as I have enough.

A heap about plants, fruit trees and especially grasses.

I'm far from an expert in any of these but these days there's nothing I like more than a day off doing odd jobs around the property.

If you like this stuff I recommend but if you have animals be prepared for potential 24/7 commitment.
As an engineer, what is fun about it? From your statement it would be "something fun to build." I wonder why building a business and building a piece of software are so different, and why one is fun while the other is not.
Someone needs to fork Wikipedia with different site policies.
Just a note on the discourse: the point "I own it, I should be able to use it the way I want" feels like not really effective (as a rhetoric) in many part of the western world and in many social circles. I really feel for example in France it would be easily brushed off using analogy to construction permits or driver licenses, or just put the person in some crazy-libertarian box ("the kind that want to print firearms at home").
There might be ways of framing the issue that fit better in a socio-democrat context (Europe, etc.).

> Practicing slowly will never get you to perform things quickly.

Learning something at a very slow tempo and then slowly increasing to written tempo is a strategy taught by many teachers and in my personal experience it's worked well. Aspects of your playing are going to be different at different tempos, but that doesn't mean it isn't a valid learning technique.

Must be lots of windows fanbois here, otherwise I'm not sure why I got downvoted. Really, they may not want to hear this, but Windows 8 really sucked. Microsoft knows it, and that is why they're running away as fast as they can from it.
Calacanis has said TWiST is bringing in about ~500k per year. He does approx. 2 shows per week, so you do the math.
This money is obviously doing a lot of good, but I have to ask why are they making a big song and dance about it? It's the equivalent of me donating 20 bucks to charity and then going around telling everyone. If they were doing it purely for altruistic reasons then they wouldn't even mention it. It definitely has a commercial purpose behind it. It's better than them not doing it, but don't fall into the trap of believing it's purely altruistic. Google employees don't have a higher set of morals than other companies.
If you read outside your own area you are in fact doing something different. You are combining knowledge from other fields and tie them into your own. This can never be a bad thing no matter how different the field might be.
haha, thought the same thing.
The real problem here is that the police and courts can charge people with frivolous crimes like this and there are no consequences on their part. This poor guy now has to hire a lawyer, waste his time and money, go through the court system and hopefully get this thrown out. If the judges, prosecutors and police were held accountable maybe things like this wouldn't happen, but it won't be in my lifetime.
You're right, my take on this is that a company scraped a bunch of publicly available information, that people left open (consciously or not.) That's why only a subset have phone numbers. The profile URLs, emails, most people don't even try to protect those.

Normally the company sells this data, but now they've given it away. It's not good this data got out because the curation has some value to spammers or whoever. But using the word "leak" here undermines the severity of a real leak where passwords and social security numbers are exposed. Data that was never meant by anyone to be open.

Everyone likely has (technically) provided consent for every piece of information here being shared with partners. Buried in fine print that it wasn't really expected they'd read, of course. It's the cost of being online, and that sucks, but it seems only a leak of what had already been given out.
Hah yeah and the same top comment on both...
I agree. At first I got a few emails over a long period of time recommending financial products (credit cards, savings accounts, etc) but I unsubscribed and haven't seen any of those since. The only emails I get now are when something changes on my credit profile (new account, closed account, etc).
You really think Sundar is having as negative an impact on Google as Ballmer did for Microsoft? I agree Google has lost its way, but I wouldn't go that far.
> All the generic "there is hope" and "antidepressants really work" and "go to therapy" talk that tends to surround mental illness discussion really bugs me because virtually nobody acknowledges the damage that's done when these things fail (and they fail frequently).

Exactly.

When highly suicidal last year my reasoning was that I'd tried so many therapies (medication, talking, multiple practitioners) without success that I cannot be fixed and it's time to leave.

The typical suicide response ("call a crisis line" or "talk to your GP") is reasonable, but many suicidal people are far beyond that. For them the community sends around the Police to lock you up in a ward (ie "you're now scheduled") and many of those people - myself included - find it the most horrific experience of their law-abiding lifetime and understandably double down on getting away before they're unconscionably locked up again.

In a nutshell the mental health system often destroys the last hope someone had by imposing punitive sanctions with minimal insight or empathy. Have a read of a random selection of non-custodial suicide case studies at http://www.coroners.justice.nsw.gov.au/Pages/findings.aspx and judge for yourself.

The real issue here is how to better supervise the delivery of psychology and psychiatry programs so ineffective solutions for a specific person are gracefully transitioned into something else before all hope is lost. A severely depressed person isn't well-equipped to assess treatment and practitioners are too incentivized (or perhaps imprudent) to self-regulate their ineffectiveness.
It's actually one of the best solutions proposed here.

You'd make the camera reach out to a signing server for the user's signature. You'd even sign the whole photo, not a hash supplied by the camera, to give you (via the server) a chance to verify the image was correct.

Or, you'd adapt a hardware wallet to do the same. Either way, there'd be two devices from two manufacturers, communicating over a transparent protocol.

You absolutely can jam over a song you don't know inside and out. If everyone did know the song that well then you're just playing the song. Real "jamming" (not trying to be too pedantic with the use of the word) happens when you don't know where the song/jam is going and you build off of and comp each other.
Thank you very much for your perspective. This gives me a lot to think about.

You're bringing logic into this, please stop. The propaganda narrative is to just bash Red Hat for any work done. Of course the company that employs many opensource people across the world is going to have some effect on the ecosystem.

No. With his procedure the database would be properly configured to listen only connections from local network or localhost. So it wouldn't really be any more vulnerable than if there was a firewall protecting it.

His point in my understanding is that you should harden your servers, firewalled or not, and to hardened hosts firewall doesn't add a lot of value anymore.

There are lots of cases where baggage gets delayed or waylaid, and so the passenger ends up flying without their luggage. They then send that luggage onwards on the next flight — obviously without the passenger.

Yes, it would be hard to engineer that to happen, so it's not very useful to someone planning to do something nasty with it — but it does mean there can't be a strict no bag without passenger rule.
Actually, nothing ever dies. It's just remade in another format.

I agree with the sentiment but not with how you're proposing to implement it.

You say "overlooked for various reasons". Let's work on those reasons not try to patch a system. Why should me being able to guess (not "predict" as you say) the value of a dinner translate into retrospective karma?

Also, what is karma, really? What is it really measuring?
Individuals wouldn't have to file 1099s in any case; if the law went into effect, it'd be only for businesses. It would still be a hassle for businesses buying equipment, but not quite the same as your grandmother having to send Dell a 1099 when buying a home computer.
