Thanks for the clarification on downvotes, I guess you are right.

As far as BT mice and keyboards goes, well, I wouldn't want to give them to my grandmother. What happens when battery goes out? Yes, she could always put it in charger, but why is this any better than regular USB cable then? But I recognize that some people like (and use) BT peripherals, so there might be a market for it.

I agree with your other comments, I'm sure my idea is not unique. If I'm not mistaken, MS is working in this direction (and has some advantage here because their OS is more desktop oriented anyway).
Looks the same as before: rubbish.
Participating in a discussion about an article titled "the quantum source of space-time" to say that basic concepts are nonsense because some words do not have the same meaning as in everyday life also leads to confusion.

It's only disputed by people who haven't actually looked at the math.

And I didn't say the state of the particle was already determined. It wasn't. Yes, of course superpositions are real. Yes, of course the Bell inequalities are violated. Yes, this eliminates all local hidden variables theories. Yes, it seems like this necessarily leads to the conclusion that there is spooky action at a distance. But that's wrong. To see why, read the paper or watch the video.

It still only hits teraflops speed when you're running very wide SIMD code - non-SIMD stuff is a lot slower, probably roughly the same speed penalty as running non-SIMD code on a GPU based on what they've released. Not only that, most researcher's very wide SIMD code is written for CUDA which this doesn't support. Oh, and the AVX-512 instructions required to take advantage of the full speed of this aren't used by any Intel product currently in existence - you basically have to develop code specifically for this board.
Not to mention not compatible with TLS 1.2 and older.

Another point is intel, there might not been a lot of sources in occupied territories, but at least some of them are sending information, likely via internet.

According to wikipedia [0], SOHR has 200 informants in Syria. It is not said where exactly there are, but for example, there are reporting this morning that 33 jihadists were killed last night in Rakka. Obviously this is coming from someone in Rakka.

And lastly, there is also a large population of civilians in there, this is why as far as now, no one is bombarding critical infrastructure like water, electricity.

But in general relativity extrinsic curvature is the irrelevant thing, it's all about intrinsic curvature. We don't think of space-time being embedded in a higher dimensional space but we still talk about curvature of space-time, its intrinsic curvature.

These demonstrations with balls rolling on a stretchable rubber sheet to visualize gravity are really misleading in this regard because they use a good deal of extrinsic curvature to make things work but in reality mass doesn't deform space-time into a fifth dimension or at least it doesn't necessarily do so.
This is interesting, but I don't really understand the differences with
the existing coroutine libraries like libtask, libconcurrency or libcoro.

Of course, it uses the longjmp/setjmp trick, as suggested by Dmitry Vyukov.

http://www.1024cores.net/home/lock-free-algorithms/tricks/fi...

However, I'm not sure of the benefit of this approach, compared to
writing a few lines of stack switching assembly code per architecture.
Especially, how portable are the implementations of longjmp and setjmp
across the multitude of C libraries and operating systems?

But more importantly, it doesn't seem to solve the two main issues
of coroutines libraries written in C that were already solved in Go:

- How does the stack can grow or shrink? (specifying the stack size
in the worse case scenario doesn't scale well)

- How can a coroutine be moved to another operating system thread
and back? (useful when blocking or when parallelism is needed)
It makes a difference when it's colorized and may be takes some time to get used to but see this for example http://imgur.com/6UYUvye

Once you start grouping people into big lumps like "student" and "old", it opens up a rat's nest of unfairness. What about disabled people who aren't old? What about old people who are very rich and healthy? Etc. I think we have to tolerate a bit of unfairness so that a large chunk of needy people can benefit, even if a few outliers miss our or are unfairly advantaged.

There might be considerable future value in the work done so far. Neither party wants to give up on that, they both want to work on it, but they can't agree on a direction. So work out between you what all the non-sharable assets (physical things, brand, etc) are worth right now, and draw up an agreement that gives all of that to one party with an agreement to pay the other party the value of it plus something extra if a business is either funded or sold at any time in the future using those things.

Which person gets the assets should default to the person who took on the debt because if that debt is called in they'll need to sell those things to pay it off (the fact it was from a friend is irrelevant).

All the sharable stuff (code, IP, etc) just get cloned and you get a copy each.

Everyone's a winner.

I'd like the password store as a separate process, where I can allow a single password to leave the password store, after I okay it.
I like the idea but doubt that would work out, at least not in my environment. I think this can only work if you use your credit card everywhere and always, else you would have to write down your expenses yourself and we know nobody would do that.

Then a lot of payments show up as rather generic. You would need to map a lot of "Payment Messages" to a topic, again something i think i would not do.

I think i could see that working rather in a Bitcoin only environment than anywhere else.

But then again, there apparently are americans who use their credit cards all the time and for everything. This might be just a american thing i cant understand.

how about generating sentences based on cfg rules ?
I'm wondering if the 0-RTT mode brings any issues with DDoS attacks. Since the request is sent in the initial TLS request, the server must buffer it, or create a response before it finishes the handshake. Admittedly it's not UDP, so you still need to successfully perform a TCP handshake (ie: verify the reverse path).

The critical thing here (and one we will never know as far I see) is what point Mohamud begins (if at all) to actually harbour the feeling to kill innocent people.

Given the events in the article, if he had these feelings on or before the moment was contacted by FBI Special Agent Jason Dodd agent posing as the recent convert Bill Smith, then I agree the FBI had the responsibility to pursue him. However, if not, the FBI entrapped Mohamud. (why? read on)

The article goes into detail about Mohamud's upbringing. I'm going to take a few quotes from it:
- 'Like many refugee children, Mohamud had to deal with cultural barriers that separated him from his parents, his American friends, and his mostly white classmates. There is little question he felt different. For an issue of the class magazine, for example, Duncan asked his students to draw cartoons of themselves and caption them. Under his portrait, Mohamud wrote, “I’m the black one.”'

- 'Mohamud’s friends from that time acknowledged he was easy to influence'

- “Home was kind of a hostile environment for him,” [re: his parents breakup who subsequently divorced]

- '“manipulable” and “conflicted”' [the words in double quotes are those as written in an email by FBI Special Agent DeLong to other FBI agents in 2009]

- '“shy around authority figures.”'

When you take someone like that and make them the target of a sting operation...

I'm just not going to finish my sentence.

Not only that, here is another (lengthy) quote:

The public record of that meeting is incomplete. In what the FBI claimed was an honest mistake, Youssef’s tape recorder had dead batteries. Apart from the anonymous agent’s testimony, the only source for what Mohamud said that day is a summarized report prepared by Chan. At trial, Chan said he had destroyed his original notes.

(The defense took great issue with this at trial. Entrapment law requires prosecutors to show that a defendant was predisposed to commit the crime before the first contact with government agents. The nuances of Mohamud’s behavior and language during the first meeting, the defense argued, were vital.)

The FBI do not have a checklist that involves checking the batteries of any electronic devices to be used in an operation prior to operation.

Payment for the extra risk and to take account of the time value of money e.g. $1000 now is worth more than $1000 in a years time.
all the problems you call out are implementation bugs, not specification bugs. If people can't implement it right, it's not the spec's fault - though we should definitely strive for "easy to implement". "Freezing TLS" doesn't really make sense either - you'll probably be able to use TLS 1.1/1.2 for years to come, and it takes a LONG time for a new version of the protocol to roll out and gain support. If a TLS implementation wanted to focus on bugs and quality instead of implementing new features, they totally could.
This is a fascinating idea. Could you elaborate on how you think the additional computational complexity would give rise to attraction between particles in matter-dense regions?

I don't remember signing or agreeing to anything.
The problem with jailing the police is that the prosecutors who'd have to file charges against them are on the same side as them and have an interest in encouraging them to push the rules. We can barely get charges filed against police officers who kill someone in cold blood a lot of the time, what chance do we stand of doing the same over minor things like constitutional violations?

They're getting better, but still a mixed bag. The menu interface on my new Vizio is perfectly fine, but the Netflix app is actually nicer than Apple TV. The Amazon app, however, is a UX nightmare, that looks like some kind of very old Android UI and it doesn't even work with the TV's keyboard remote.
If you both believe in the project but your project implies a cultural change, then it is best that you part ways with an agreement to share the code developed until now, and the relationships developed until now, and work on your forks from now on without sharing anymore.

This way there will be two companies trying to evangelize the prospects (sometimes the same) with the need for a huge cultural change.

Your smallest problem will be competition from your former company, compared with customers not even considering your solution because they feel it is an overkill.
He was actively looking for ways to carry out an attack. Do you seriously think if the FBI hadn't got in the way, he would have stopped doing that? He doesn't seem any less capable or motivated than the Tsarnaev brothers.
You make a lot of excellent points but I think you might have misinterpreted my comment, because it doesn't seem like we disagree. You mention that evil cannot be defined in precise terms, and that's exactly what I'm talking about. It's not a property of things in reality that can be measured, it's a judgement about things made by people. The judgment may be very rational, but it can't be based wholly on objective reality. For that to be the case, it'd have to be based on a physical law or property rather than a moral principle, and I just don't see how that's possible. Your argument for why Hitler was evil is really solid, not because it's based in objective reality but because it's based the principle that the continued existence of the human race is a good thing. I'd say that's a solid enough principle that it may as well be objective reality. But technically speaking, it's still a subjective judgement that we're making about how things should be, rather than an objective observation of how they are.

This is a really pedantic, subtle and (I think) important distinction. If one sees good and evil as objective truth, they're reliant on the source of that truth for their moral judgement. This explains the jihadists you mention. It's not that they enjoy being murdering maniacs (although I'm sure some do), it's that their source of moral truth tells them that the infidels are evil and must be destroyed (or whatever), so they see what they're doing as a good thing.

Do even papers with the same main author differ in style? What if there are "fraud people" who just write more obscure and their papers are typically frauds?

I also wonder how the same approach would apply to politician speeches (does their degree of obfuscation change over time or pre-vs-post election?) or even more directly measurable things such as the FOMC minutes.

In the best case we could at least see whether they know they lie (they obfuscate unpleasant truths / lies).

Yes, 1996 is not that long ago, but the overall picture is that many brands of terrorism have declined drastically after 1991, the fall of Soviet Union.

There's much less logistical support for various left-wing movements. After 2001, American authorities no longer approved of funding and supporting IRA operations in Britain so any hopes of "military" achievements by Irish nationalists dwindled. Also support for ETA and similar movements in Europe have declined.

RAF (Red Army Fraction) and various Arab groups used to work together; that seems nowadays negligible. But jihadist violence has increased its profile.

I disagree that the way is "worse".

I like that in templates, string handling is _enforced_ to be different. For example, when you manipulate strings in template, you can be reasonably sure all output is escaped, unless you specify otherwise in a very few precise cases with explicit syntax.

A good template language allows you to create/limit available tools/helpers for your particular project. That is especially important in larger projects and larger teams, where everyone is not immediately expected to know intended good practice to follow. Creating DSL in template _is_ a way of documenting intended good practice.

A good template language does not pretend not to be turing-complete: instead, it provides comprehensive error handling and error messages, so that users know exactly where some error or type occurred.

One more reason to use the language is because it is a language. If someone used something like Django, the Twig will be quite familiar and easy to pick up.

Template engine can optimize-away, pre-compile things, just like languages do.

With separate template language you don't need to recompile whole build if you change a template (presuming hosting language is compiling to binary and template engine is interpreted).

Full disclosure: I am currently rewriting Twig in another language, and believe it's completely worth the effort.
> I was wondering how radically this architecture differs from more conventional x86 cores

The big difference besides memory and organisation is that the KNL cores are beefed-up Silvermont cores (the new Atom), which is an out of order core and pretty much what you would expect of a modern x86 architecture. The Knight's Corner cores were custom cores, somewhere between barrel and vector processors. The Knight's Landing should be even more general-purpose than the old Xeon Phi's and easier to program for.

I did this once. We were a 3 man team and 2 of us decided to call it quits. We each got a perpetual, total licence to all the IP invented to date including copies of code (it was all software, nothing physical). We then gave a new company, which the third co-founder owned 100% of, total rights to everything. We then wound up the initial Ltd company we had formed. The third co-founder then went on to work on a pivoted version of the idea and recently got a $1m+ seed funding round. He spent well over 18 months working with new partners on that so it's 100% his success and neither of the two of us that left have any hard feelings.

Ultimately, if you believe in it, stick at it. If not, walk away and realise that opportunity cost is a very real thing and hanging around for years is very expensive.
