> Specific to this acquisition, Movidius packs 150 Gflops under 4W of power. Skylake packs 100Gflops under 120W of power. The difference here is more than 2 degrees of magnitude. Moving the designs to the new Intel processes should cover another significant improvement. So that's what's going on.

Where did you get the measurements? Link please.

M2 to Skylake is like apples to oranges. The RISC cores are based on Leon, and then you have 12 SHAVEs/VLIW cores, which are very good at number crunching and GPU/DSP-like tasks, but they are not really general purpose CPUs as such. I think you should exclude them from your comparison.

Anyway, good for Movidius, I wish 'em all the best.
How did modems deal with pluses in data?

Many years ago, modem maker Hayes Microcomputer Products held a patent dealing with that issue. The clever bit was in looking for

<pause> +++ <pause>

to effect the escape.

Hayes tried to collect royalties, but this caused quite a kerfuffle. Cheap modem makers didn't bother looking for pauses. "Hilarity" ensued. Other solutions were found.

Funny, I became FreeBSD user because default .cshrc contained it (iirc). I didn't know about shells, readline, etc. back then. Wonder why they do not enable it on up-down by default, cause I see too many linuxoids around bored with up-up-up-enter up-up-up-enter to replay history, not even knowing that completion exists (along with at least ^K ^U ^C).

What's the point to type a half-command and then replace input line with one from history if I press up? That somewhat resembles ugly cmd.exe, which every windows user imagines when someone says 'cli'.
It's spreading probably b/c it has been purposefully transplanted to push the hype machine. Not only is Zika non-lethal, they have yet to prove any link to any serious symptoms.* For the vast majority it is no worse than catching a cold and you are over it in a week, and subsequently immune. Hence it is it's own vaccine. All this hype is for various nefarious purposes of making $$$ (and possibly I fear testing DNA transmission). $1.9 billion for what? Toxoplasmosis is worse than Zika and 200,000 people in the U.S. alone get that a year. Where's the money to stop that?

But the huge difference is that with truly un-live-with-able circumstance, the most important thing you need is help to alleviate the circumstance itself. Changing your response to it isn't helpful if it doesn't contribute to changing the underlying circumstance, and when the circumstances are things that you don't control which happen to you, especially when they are on-going and it's not so much about how you process them but actually stopping them, it's questionable what role medication really plays.

> Staying in the depression doesn't help you to take action at all.

It definitely can. Precisely when you lack the power to change your own extrinsic circumstances, and it is those circumstances causing the harm that leads to depression, then staying in the depression keeps sending out that distress signal for help. Taking you out of the depression without also addressing the circumstances makes it seem like you're managing it, when really you're still being harmed.

Ah, I feel silly now, it looks like I caused this. At some point I must have added an adblock rule to block the subscribe dialog on fermatslibrary.com, but somehow missed the disable scrolling part.

Earlier, I opened the page in a new tab and didn't get to it for a while, so when I switched over to read it, the subscribe box had already disabled scrolling.
And then imagine trying to escape telnet on an international keyboard (Swedish in my case). Telnet actually kind of works, if you press ctrl+altgr+8 (which is one hell of a hand-twister), but many games and GUIs ONLY allow you to press the listed, with no other modifiers.

So many games don't even allow you to open the console, because they assume that your key next to 1 is ~, and so don't work for § (next to 1) or altgr+¨ (the layout's ~). Or switch between looking at characters or scancodes depending on the context, and thus work in some cases but not all.

Dear god this. For most advertisers with a decent budget, measuring ROAS for FB on a last click basis across channels will lead to disappointment.

Unfortunately, developing a proper attribution model with post impression conversions (not just click based) is arguably the hardest challenge in the industry today. There is no one size fits all approach and even as someone who does this for a living and is well versed in the matter, I still haven't found a great approach. Incremental list testing isn't always easily done.

For me the question is can Rock continue to claim to be intrinsically rebellious and new, as opposed to say, Blues. The Rock of the 50s and 60s ossified into Arena Rock in the 70s, which provoked Punk, which was gradually co-opted, until there was a resurgence of sorts in the 90s. At this point, however, I am skeptical there can be any radically original combination of elements in the genre. Which is fine, obviously people continue to make satisfying Blues records, but they also aren't claiming to be doing something bold and new... EDM (in all its many subgenres) does seem to still be developing, as do Jazz and Western Art music (aka Classical), but none of them make quite the same claims about rebellion, either.

Another good reason to keep CI locked out from other networks is to make sure all asset references are properly rewritten. Of summertime hard codes an open internet source or, even worse, an internal source, that will generate a 404 when testing, and any unexpected 404s in the log are instant test fails.

Checking in node_modules has the same problem as copy/pasting for native modules (on which I was relying, hence the compilation issues). Using file: is a better solution that wasn't around when I first encountered this solution, but still has the problem of requiring you to manually manage every dependency (which can grow to obnoxious proportions in Node). There's no clear way to create the equivalent package of a fat shaded JAR or a statically linked binary.

Agreed, it was very frustrating. They required that we follow the exact same set of interview questions for every candidate, verbatim. We were not allowed to ask technical questions or do any kind of proficiency questioning / testing, etc. When pressed, they said that we could ask follow up questions to their set of questions, and that we should be able to determine technical proficiency by inquiring about past experience.

Yes, sandboxing and ephemeral machines are far and away the best defense a CI system has against compiling/testing malicious code. But the vast majority of CI systems don't actually use ephemeral executors because imaging between runs is slow and rebuilding your whole checkout/object cache is expensive.

You don't need to own the CI server in order to own a project. You can take over all of the individual executors and replace their linker with your own version that links against an attacker-supplied backdoored fork of openssl (for an extreme and topical example). Doesn't even require constantly-running code which might be detected by a monitoring system, and naturally persists across reboots (but not reimagings).

I'm glad that GitLab is paying attention to these things. The Travis which is tightly integrated with GitHub also seems to do a good job, although I haven't looked into it extensively. But plenty of orgs run self-hosted CI that simply isn't up to proper security standards in this respect.

The problem with saying ego depletion isn't a thing may still be false.

I personally have a limited amount of "give a fuck". If I run out of fucks to give, well, that's the end of the story. I know exactly how many fucks I can give per day, and I suspect all of this is what they call ego depletion.

So, claiming it doesn't exist simply doesn't align with my own personal experience. Most likely, it is more subtle than current scientific testing can account for.

This should be a requirement, and my own liberal education is why I'm glad I have one of the very few B.A.'s in Computer Science that my university issued.

Taking Calc III and a fourth science class is a lot less valuable to me both as a worker and as a citizen than any one of my economics courses. (To say nothing of my public speaking courses.)

Write a couple hundred lines of your favorite language and throw it up on Google App Engine. Have the code query all relevant threads/comments and store them in GAE's free memcached service.

Finally have the angular2 app query your GAE project directly and you should be looking at < 50 ms loads of much more efficient json data.

I agree with you. I went to college and graduated with a degree, but didn't really have enough real world experience to know what I wanted to do as a career. Skip ahead five years and I finally found a similar equivalent to a software engineering trade school, Holberton School[1] in SF. I didn't have the money to go back to school and didn't want to take out loans, and this school was my saving grace. I do wish things like this existed for other vocations as well though.

My high school counselor was incredibly useless, and quite possibly harmful. I also went to a small private high school (~30 students per grade level).

Her only focus, as far as I can tell, was to make sure we could be admitted to a UC. She spoke to us in 10th grade, letting us know that we needed to take three SAT II subject tests, and that two of them should be writing and math, while the third should be whatever we thought we'd get a high score in. She also stated that on no account should we schedule all three tests for the same day, because too much testing wears you out and your performance suffers.

I could tell that last bit was nonsense, but I believed the earlier advice and took the math, writing, and latin tests. The counselor bore a grudge against me from then on for ignoring her advice but still getting high scores. Come senior year, I learned that good schools usually required a science SAT II. Whoops.

I had almost no interaction with the school counselor besides the speech she gave to the 10th grade. I heard through the grapevine how upset she was that I'd flouted her non-individualized advice.

I had no "counselor" or similar role in college. The CS degree required a CS professor to sign off on my "plan", but that entire process consisted of me going to a professor in my final year, saying "I want to declare a CS major; here is my plan, all of the classes except that one are already complete", and getting a pro forma signature.

I was curious if this could be achieved without the need for JavaScript, and I see there is an SVG animate element that looks like it ought to do the trick. In theory you should be able to get the turbulence seed to cycle from 0 to 500 by adding an animate child on the feTurbulence element like this:

<feTurbulence id="turb" baseFrequency="0.2" type="turbulence">
<animate attributeType="XML" attributeName="seed" from="0" to="500" dur="50s" repeatCount="indefinite"/>
</feTurbulence>

It's not quite the same as the JavaScript implementation, which makes the seed random, but I wouldn't have thought that was necessary in this scenario.

Anyway, while it seems to work OK for me in Firefox, it doesn't look quite right in Chrome, and it fails completely in IE and Edge. Not sure if I'm doing it wrong, or SVG animation is just not well supported yet, but this would be my preferred solution if it could be made to work reliably.

The justification for a lot of these frivolous injury lawsuits are often very similar. The person suing has thousands or tens of thousands of medical debt. They could spend years paying it off or they could look like a moron in the hopes of a settlement that will pay off the debt or at least make a dent in it.

Probably the most famous case, Bodine v Enterprise High School, involved a teenager who fell through a painted over skylight while stealing (or redirecting to play basketball) a spotlight off the roof. Because of the fall he became a quadriplegic, he didn't really have much to lose suing the school district because, well, his life as he knew it was over. He had a lifetime of medical bills to pay and no way to earn an income.

There are definitely plenty of scam artists or leeches or whatever you want to call them abusing the legal system because it's easier than getting a real job, but don't underestimate the people backed into a corner by debt.
