"Much of the F-35's software is written in C and C++ due to programmer availability, Ada83 code also is reused from the F-22. The Integrity DO-178B real-time operating system (RTOS) from Green Hills Software runs on COTS Freescale PowerPC processors" "24 million lines of code"

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_Martin_F-35_Lightning...

Integrity-178B is the DO-178B–compliant version of Integrity. It is used in several military jets such as the B-2, F-16, F-22 and F-35, as well as the commercial airframes Airbus A380. Its kernel's design guarantees bounded computation times by eliminating features such as dynamic memory allocation.

The auditing and security engineering capabilities have allowed it to obtain the EAL6 rating by the NSA.

Integrity-178B has a unique feature: an EAL6 rating.

A family member of mine was diagnosed with metastatic cancer and told to get her affairs in order. She went on a strict no sugar diet. 5 years later, she has no sign of cancer.

Of course, she also had standard surgery and chemo. But I wouldn't be in the least surprised if the no sugar diet slowed the cancer down enough for the chemo/surgery to be more effective.
In Sweden, the Pirate Bay tried and failed using a similar argument. The court instead found a law that targeted biker bars, where a law had been created to make it easier to shut down such facilities and prosecute its owners under contributory crimes. The prosecutor only need to convince the court that the average use is primary of a criminal nature, which in the Pirate Bay case consisted of a screenshot of the top 100 list. There didn't need to be someone that was found guilty of an actual infringement.
I created a (admittedly much worse) Chrome extension to do this, but I also added the ability to concatenate several articles together, and send them as a single file.

The reason being, when I pick up my kindle, it's usually to read for an extended period of time, so I am prepared to go through the length of several articles. Also, my menu won't end up so cluttered with all the articles I sent.

If that's on the product roadmap for this, it would be wonderful.
I'm not going to list them, they are dead obvious.

It's going to be difficult to have any interesting discussion, then, because it's not at all obvious to me what benefits high traffic has for a typical commercial site if that traffic isn't generating revenue or providing something else of value.

Obviously if the purpose of your site isn't to make money then things are different, but given that we're explicitly talking about models for revenue generation here, I think it's reasonable to assume commercial websites that are intended to be profit-making.

This is probably why cannabinoids are likely to have a synergistic effect in treating some (but not all) cancers when used in concert with immunotherapies and chemotherapies... The cannabinoid receptors connect into the akt system and modulate cell energy use. In vitro, some cancer cell lines are eradicated by cannabinoids, probably in vivo it's more complicated but weakening the cells probably helps.

Just take a look at normal cars.

E.g. Ford Focus Sedan is starting at 17.000$, 2.0 Liter Engine, 160 horsepower.

Now take a Ford Focus from Germany with a comparable Engine (1.5L EcoBoost with 150 horsepower)
Starting price is at 26.500$.

Audi A3 in Germany is starting at about 26.800 Euro.

Cars in the United States are way cheaper than in Germany.

So 4.000 Euro is quite some money to get EVs and normal cars into the same pricerange.
The telephone was a shared device, and as a child it was not mine. In college, it was shared with 4 other people (and still not mine). Then once married, it was shared with my spouse.

But now there is no more 'shared voice device.' It is not pratical to not own a phone. But all cell phones are not sharable. Hence, by default, either I carry a phone and the contact person knows explicitly I am ignoring them or I answer it. But when the only game in town was a simple telephone, a busy signal or no answer just meant nobody is available. Nothing else. But now, with my phone, I can no longer say I am not available, imo.
The steps are pretty neat. Also agree on the driver and tools installation. Just painful and long.

7 Surprising Things I Learned Writing a Fibonacci Generator in JavaScript
Someone discovered that a 3-terminal semiconductor device could be built using copper oxide as a semiconductor in the 1920s. But copper oxide is a lousy semiconductor, and it was a lousy transistor. So it was just an interesting lab phenomenon. It wasn't until Bell Labs finally figured out the physics behind semiconduction in the 1950s that transistors really worked.

But suppose someone like Edison had gotten hold of the 1920s transistor lab experiment and tried to make it better by trying many different materials. (That's how he got a usable, cheap light bulb filament; thousands of materials were tried, ending with carbonized paper.) They would have tried selenium (selenium rectifiers were known) and galena crystals (crystal radios were known). They probably would have gotten a point-contact transistor out of galena, which would have led to germanium. It would have been unreliable and heat-sensitive until germanium purification was figured out. They might have tried grey tin, which is a semiconductor but a dead end. They probably wouldn't have tried silicon, because you have to grow silicon crystals first, which is hard and wasn't done until 1950.

So a transistor radio might have been demoed by 1930 or so.
What do you mean? Only time you can mess up a lambda is if a pointer that you're using gets changed. And this kind of dupicate ownership is a general problem with pointers.
I was thinking the same thing. If no warrant is required then anybody can record whatever they want, right?

edit

I can't figure out how this could possibly be legal. It seems to me the rule for recording conversations is 1 party consent.

Well, it's a good point but how do you decide what's critical?

To answer my own question; I believe the future lies in machine learning algorithms processing symptoms and tests (I guess a symptom is also a test in the sense that it's the answer to a question).

Most of the times there's also not a simple answer to be found . The right answer depends on many factors including the capabilities of your hospital/country/economy and the state of science.

Yeah, I'm not following as well. I've used Lambdas in C++ pretty heavily and they're really well done and thought out.

FWIW nothing about them is much different from Rust's approach(anon struct + fn) it's all the ownership guarantees which give Rust it's safety.

No, as I explained, when disease prevalence is low, most tests -- even when clearly "positive" -- don't shift probabilities in any appreciable way, and just add to the noise, and render decision making even harder.

Of all patients, nurses and doctors are the ones who are the less likely to asks for "more tests", precisely because they understand that they are essentially meaningless when pre-test probability is very low.

> I could have a Snapchat clone developed easily for $100k - probably considerably less

Bearing in mind that a Snapchat clone by itself wouldn't be marketable, you'd need a lot of marketing to differentiate it, so could I. But you and I have expertise, and expertise is valuable and needs to be factored into the price. That's the point I'm trying to make. My old CEO knows nothing about software, he paid half a million for an e-commerce site. For a real software product built by someone who doesn't know what he's doing, a million dollars is the minimum. Anyone who comes to the table with less than that is going to get really badly burned.

If you come to the table with half a million worth of expertise, and zero dollars of capital, you will probably fail unless you focus hard on getting funded. I'd rate the skill of getting funded as worth around $150-200K. If you don't already have it, you're going to have to pour in more of your blood, sweat and tears.

> it would seem that people believe you need $1m in the bank before you can go to market.

No, they understand the meaning of "a million dollars of your own blood, sweat and tears".

It does absolutely no good to would-be founders if they try their hand at doing a startup thinking it's going to be easy. When I see these kinds of post-mortems, I see that clearly, a million bucks worth of effort wasn't put in. They worked too hard, and not smart enough. They didn't have the expertise to enter the market that they wanted to be in. They may not have literally thought that all of their competitors and potential partners were stupid and / or naive, but their business model implicitly assumed it. They failed to de-risk the business and the risk killed them.

My intuition is that occasional software crashes like this probably follow a Poisson distribution statistically speaking. Like occasional cars appearing on a lonely street. One car appearing doesn't affect the expected arrival of the next car. So rebooting before the start of a mission is not an effective strategy. Just idle speculation based on a stats and probability class 36 years ago. Happy to be proven wrong.

With an uber like indicator of wait time, it seems like it would be tolerable. If a bus is guaranteed to show up in 20 minutes, i can make use of those 20 minutes.

Fundamentally though, it's a density/diffusion problem. Having enough rides available in the right spots is tough. Especially when, say 10% of riders go way off in the sticks, with no need for pickups out there. You want a nice random distribution of rider routes, but really, people go east in the morning, and west in the evening (for example), so a lot of capacity is unused just getting back to where demand is.

tricky tricky problem. schedules and defined routes are part of the solution, for sure.

Is there COTS hardware and software for cutting-edge fighter jets? Even Google and Apple create custom OS's for smartphones; I doubt QNX would be a great choice for a plane.

Also, performance is extremely important for this application. If the plane is a little slow, a little too easy to track, the computer a little slow, then the pilots die, the people they are defending are bombed and killed, the battle is lost, and maybe the war too. It's not a place to compromise performance to save money and use COTS, even if it was a available.
> What's the plan for replacing work after this new era arrives?

Who cares? Anybody sees a problem with automating away so many jobs that unemployment rises to 50% and beyond? Unemployment is not a problem. It's how we deal with it that is. You just can't expect everyone to work when machines do all the work.

So… how about we all work less? What about a 4 days work-week, or even 3? How about automating so much work that voluntary community service becomes enough?

We need to think about it soon, because the current model is not pretty: just let the jobless starve, and lock them up (or out) when they start to demand jobs or (gasp!) money. And if things get ugly, send the army bots. "Shoot on sight" is pretty easy to automate, if you don't care to discriminate.

> hey didn't popularize the notion that 1% of the population would own all the robots.

There is no doubt the Pyra is much more capable than early 2000's palmtops. It has built-in wifi, bluetooth, HDMI output, sensors, etc.

Nevertheless, I am sure we can all agree that its design does not make efficient use of internal space. There is a lot of room for improvement to make the device more compact. Yet this does not seem to be a priority for the creators or many of the end users.

For comparison take a modern device that is comparable in dimensions like the Sony Xperia Z5 Compact at 127x65x8.9 mm. Sony fit an LCD and 2700mAh battery in just 9mm of thickness.

As for the large battery, it seems gratuitously huge. Do we really need 6000mAh in such a device? This is like 2.5x a typical phone with a comparable processor.

This is a great device for some use cases. But it is not practical as a PDA.

Yes, which is why self-contained statically-linked packages should be placed in a directory away from the system libraries in their own directory/namespace. We could call it "Program Files" or "Program Files (x86_64)".

My point was about Vcc and ground was just meant as a response to the "power-related analog components". If you don't already have a regulated power rail even a single NAND gate won't be able to do it's thing, so its definitely a requirement but if you say you are allowed a functional NAND gate you must be allowed power rails as part of that.

I really like the explicit capture of C++'s lambdas more than the implicit one in most other languages (C#, Java, Python...) where you easily ends-up with a closure not referencing the expected variable. See: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/ericlippert/2009/11/12/clos...
My mother had lung cancer which spread to other parts of her body. Throughout her sickness, she ate very little, then almost nothing as the disease progressed. By the time of her death, she was practically just skin and bones. "Starving the cancer" didn't seem to work in her case. Then again, chemo also seemed to have zero effect. Cancer just spread, more and more, with each passing month.

> Much of the F-35's software is written in C and C++ due to programmer availability

This sounds ridiculous. Surely it would be very easy to get as many programmers as they wanted for whatever tech they need with the 1 trillion USD that they have.

It would be fine if C++ was the best tool for the job, but I suspect it isn't. If it is not the best tool for the job, then whatever is gained in "programmer availability" is lost in productivity, correctness, reliability or whatever metric a fighter jet's software development is measured against.

Furthermore, this whole IT industry fetish with hiring for a particular programming language is completely misguided. Domain knowledge is usually the bottleneck. I'd expect that to be even more so in flight or sensor software.
Sorry, I didn't see your question before. I don't know if you'll see my answer now, but here is what I dislike about SBT:

- It's unclear whether SBT wants you to write build.sbt or build.scala project files. It's recommended you use build.sbt by default, but I've seen plenty of "simple" projects, sometimes examples but often templates generated by tools, which default to build.scala. And now I've read build.scala is deprecated...

- The syntax of build.sbt is confusing. Is it Scala? Is it a DSL? Knowing Scala is certainly not enough to understand SBT (even for build.scala files!), but if I remember correctly one of its selling points was that it was "just Scala".

- Let's get not started about build files for build files...

- The structure of the file is confusing. I never know when defining a key is going to work or not. There seem to be tons of ways of doing something, which is fine in a general-purpose language but undesirable in a configuration format!

- The many third-party plugins are confusing to configure and are often poorly documented, which reminds me of Maven's discouraging "plugin hell"... I don't think I've ever seen a plugin for Maven which was adequately documented, which means you end up copying someone else's configuration without fully understanding it. I fear SBT is the same.

- Neither IntelliJ nor Scala IDE are entirely happy compiling SBT's project files. Thankfully the support has gotten better, but it's not 100% there yet. This used to be maddening in the recent past; a "compiled" project file which your IDE fails to properly understand is unusable!

Don't forget the part where many consumer drives won't let you play with the SCT ERC settings, and some of them just completely crap out on URE and won't come back.

Job hunting can be a life changing moment. Something that will, literally, affect the rest of your life. If only because salary increases compound over an entire lifetime of working.

In other words, a $10k increase in salary might not seem much but it will add up, and not only will raises compound as well but future jobs will start at a higher negotiation level as well.

Of course, spend your time wisely but I think it's really short sighted to think "I'm happy at my job, I am going to completely block out all the recruiters out there".
