LLVM has a CostPerUse attribute on register definitions that both x86-64 and ARM's Thumb2 mode use. See http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project/llvm/trunk/include/llvm/...

The greedy register allocator uses the CostPerUse hints to prefer the lower registers, but it has to balance many optimization goals at once, so it is not always obvious what is going on. For example, it will:

- Defer using a callee-saved register for the first time until it is worth the cost of spilling it in the prologue. It won't create a prolog spill just to use a better register.
- Try to reuse function argument and return value registers to minimize register copies around function calls.

IIRC, the CostPerUse attribute gave a code size savings of around 1% on x86-64 and Thumb2. On both architectures, the effect is reduced by the fact that all register operands must be from the low register set before you can use the smaller encoding.
Yeah, if you look at the codebase it just selects a random string from an array of prewritten messages and sends that.

I still see "This Content is not available in your Country" on many Japanese Youtube Videos (browsing from USA). And even stranger, it only shows that message when browsing from a mobile phone's browser (ex: iPhone Safari). Here's an example of a cat video (there are many more) : https://www.pawpurrazi.com/cat-toilet-paper-sit-roll/

Watch the youtube embed video on that page in a mobile phone.

So what gives? Is Japan also in some dispute?
It wouldn't help. We need to rewrite our entire infrastructure with security as a primary goal. Then we need to find a way to get people to buy it (assuming of course we can even get anyone to pay for it in the first place). Buy one router for 50 bucks or the secure router for 250 ... I don't think we'll get far.

At the end of the day a few people who can't afford super lawyers go to jail, and meanwhile ubercorp producing cheap routers with bad security continue with business as usual.
I am late to the party, love all the suggestions especially brain.fm.

My go to has been the Spotify playlist called 'Beats To Think To'. It's non vocal, electronic repetitive beats. This is the only play list which worked for me. It used to be part of the 'Focus' play list group but was removed from there for some reason.

Are you saying that a company like Renaissance Technologies won't beat benchmarks over the long run?

According to Wikipedia,
"Renaissance's flagship Medallion fund, which is run mostly for fund employees,[7] "is famed for one of the best records in investing history, returning more than 35 percent annualized over a 20-year span."[4] From 1994 through mid-2014 it averaged a 71.8% annual return."

If so, I would have to disagree with you.
That first one only has one review: "Sure." Five stars.
> Email is missing encryption.

Email is generally encrypted with TLS today. The Google Safer Email initiative's transparency page shows that 86% of emails sent from Gmail to other providers are encrypted, and 78% of messages coming into them are encrypted. https://www.google.com/transparencyreport/saferemail/

Google has done a lot of good work driving encryption support in the industry through their efforts on Gmail with the Safer Email initiative.

If you are communicating with a party that you can coordinate with, then you can arrange for encryption by ensuring that both of your servers support it. Communication from mail servers to mail user agents is also commonly encrypted. The percentages above should be understood to reflect a random sample of which senders/receivers already support encryption out-of-the-box, i.e. most of them.

> Email is missing anonymity.

This is generally undesirable in the email space because it cannot be reconciled with the need to prevent abuse (spam, malware, phishing). Having a strong sender identity is desirable so that there is accountability.
any link specific for interns?
> Most PC laptops are worthless after 12-18 months of use.

I'm on a Lenovo x220... it's plenty fast for most of my work. runs ubuntu like a champ. has, hands down, the best laptop keyboard that's ever been made. and only cost me $350, plus there's a strong aftermarket parts option.

Since i don't spend my time watching media, i don't have to worry about fancy monitors or display ports (though i could have gotten a Thunderbolt port).

This is a 5 year old laptop. The battery lasts at least 6 hours.

Except that he never actually said voters should vote twice, he was implying that his opponents do, and the quote was 100% completely twisted by the media: http://www.mediaite.com/online/cnn-screws-up-says-trump-enco...

Unfortunately, this type of media attack on Trump, whatever you think of him, is common, and it makes people think twice about the credibility of the media and how they're pushing Clinton so very hard.

Furthermore, it seems like a really bad idea for people to base their voting decisions on what "supporters" of a candidate are doing, especially given that we've seen hard evidence of paid infiltrators agitating as fake supporters in order to make candidates look bad.
> In fact, the average size of each instruction is almost exactly 4 bytes

I was curious about this claim so I wrote a quick and dirty perl script to test it out:

vmlinuz-linux = 2.71957329365681
bash = 3.95324321387071
firefox = 3.56640365053712
geany = 3.44776119402985
gzip = 4.17925462998247
perl = 4.10894941634241
python = 3.82481751824818
tar = 3.93348845041101
thunar = 3.82471016115786
radeon_drv.so = 4.02697782644402

Seems spot on, except for the kernel. I'm not sure why that has shorter instructions on average.

EDIT: I ran it on git too; average was 3.96747336803081. It seems Linus' x86 wizardry does not extend to userspace in this case.
Most blog content is static, why would you need to use lambda for anything ? you already get automatic scaling by putting static files on S3. What Wordpress functionality would need to be implemented with Lambda ?
> The minus is that it is Skylake

It's not Skylake based anymore, please take updated x360 for this comparison http://www.notebookcheck.net/HP-Spectre-x360-13-w023dx-Conve... (7th Gen CPU, became a little lighter/smaller than prev generation, etc) It's convertible which is a good bonus.

Don't forget to take into the account Dell's XPS well known coil whine issue, even latest generations still do have it http://www.notebookcheck.net/Dell-XPS-13-9360-QHD-i7-7500U-N...

> System76 is the only other well known system builder that I know of that does this.

System76 laptop doesn't have Thunderbolt 3 ports.

> Interestingly from a developer perspective, the Dell XPS Developer edition comes with Ubuntu 16.04 SP1 out of the box so no Apple or Microsoft or Google tax. Isn't that neat?

It's not a big deal to install Linux in your own, the distributive you need, not the Ubuntu (Ubuntu is not the best choice for developers in my opinion).

So I really believe x360 is a better choice in all terms than XPS, I hope 15 inch model will also get update soon.
What I want is a company willing to piss off a few users by going with the times.

Ever since my first computer 35 years ago, I've dreamed of the day when we could get rid of all these individual ports and finally have the One True Connector.

Yeah, the transition period sucks. Yeah, you'll have to buy $25 dongles. So what? There's a usb-c dongle that has HDMI, SD card reader, and 4 usb 3 type A ports on it for $30. Done. Problem solved. Stop bitching.

I still have old style keyboard to ps/2 adapters, ps/2 to usb adapters, composite to VGA adapters, VGA to DVI adapters, DVI to HDMI adapters, HDMI to thunderbolt adapters, serial and parallel to USB adapters, IDE to SATA adapters, SATA to USB adapters... And now I'm glad to see that era is finally at an end.

And in a few years when there are no more peripherals using outdated ports, nobody will even remember this time, or your griping.

Waaaay back in the day (probably 99 or 2000), I had the same with myspamstopper.com as my personal spam catching domain with the same idea (to know who was leaking). Alas, I accidentally let it expire and it was immediately sniped, and I never bothered to set something like it up again.
>"Show-not-tell" isn't much followed.

man, while that approach has it merits, i sometimes bored to death and drowning in American ("Show-not-tell" is taught here a lot starting from beginning of K12 and it is taught like it it the _only_ way) novels'/stories' showing and showing and showing all these details with telling almost nothing. Even Stephenson's works - i can't get more than a few tens of the pages in one sitting even though i do like his work. Again, it isn't about _all_ American writing, mostly about modern :) I mean just look at Asimov's Foundation - 100% tell, no show. Well, may be it is a bit dry for that reason, 5% of show wouldn't hurt :) Yet it is an example that "Show-not-tell" is just a tool which has its limited domain and which should not be enforced like orthodoxy (as far as i see, be it arts, science, etc. - wherever/whenever orthodoxy appears the art or science disappears there)

Btw, i'm a Russian (and do love a lot of American writing, especially SF and for the reasons mentioned above mostly buy American modern short SF where tell/show ratio is usually higher because of the short form limitation i guess :)
This is a rambling article with a conclusion which isn't supported by any of the rambling, that conclusion being that "fortune-telling is simply an exhibition of one of many possibilities, rather than the absolute truth. It is, therefore, never really wrong".

It includes a very unusual view of Heisenberg's uncertainty principle where the author quotes without attribution "Everything in the world looks coincidental by any current observation method, since any law or principle is expressed only probabilistically. No one can say whether a thing has absolute inevitability". The only reference I could find to this via Google was http://large.stanford.edu/history/kaist/web/clubs/times/feat..., which also quotes without attribution.

I don't understand why such an article was submitted here.
It wouldn't have helped the author make coherent charts that backed the narrative that Amazon is dominating thus far.

At least mentioning the names and what % the other's had would've been nice.
Haven't actually seen the signal degradation issues you speak of, probably offset by being able to use a lower band than GSM or HSPA for my carrier.

Carriers have made it a policy to not whitelist imported devices for voLTE. IMEI needs to be whitelisted at carrier AND carrier file installed in phone needs to have support turned on. Either thing missing, no voLTE for you.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, non-voLTE still signals with LTE for incoming calls and SMS, it'll handover to HSPA/CDMA/GSM within about 2 seconds of the signal coming in. Unfortunately I don't have specifics of this process.
I'd buy infosec insurance, if such a device existed. Premiums go down the more secure your site, the security work itself being a standardized checklist. Forces the snake-oil salesmen out because they'd have to pay out in the event of a breach.

Like you, I have no idea what I'm talking about, but as OP demonstrated you can do everything right and get unlucky, or do nothing right and get lucky. Sounds perfect for some kind of insurance scheme.
The only real problem in Houston is that it's taken too long to get mass transit going. The lack of zoning isn't really a problem. It's that it takes forever to do anything to ease traffic. I wish we'd do like Brazil and get BRT systems so that they could be built progressively and start reaping benefits immediately. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bus_rapid_transit

Actually i think most SMS is handled via "WAP" these days, meaning that it is carried as a short duration data connection rather than as a special packet in the cells control channel (GSM, dunno about how CDMA implemented it).
I love the Docker solution for this. Every day I find more and more problems that Docker can solve for me.

However I dont think this will work for my setup. I run Arch Linux on a Raspberry PI, which serves OwnCloud via Apache. I have always had to go the manual route with lets encrypt because I dont run Debian.

The problem is these docker images are probably built with ubuntu or debian and assume an intel architecture. So I would have to recreate these images for arm - which means I would have to start with a different image.

Not hard to build myself, but I would basically need the original Dockerfile and then recompile from there.
Yes, people who use “exponential” to describe the difference between two numbers are almost certainly illiterate in one way or another.

Wow! I'm a premium subscriber and really love the send to kindle feature. I always read articles on my bed with good lightening.

BTW, it is the greatest procrastination killer. Instead of reading HN articles during my work hours, I send them to my kindle and -- usually :-) -- never finish to read them. A great time saver!
> People have been drone strike'd based on the location of their phones.

Do you have any credible source for this claim. If true, it's truly alarming!
I'm still not doing your job for any less than your pay.
Well, to be fair, LEA does allow for more compact encoding than RISC add/shift/add if the operations actually fit the template. But it's not enough to overcome the waste elsewhere. Most of the benefit of LEA is that it's three-address rather than two and that it doesn't clobber the flags, but those are solutions to problems that RISC doesn't have in the first place.

Edit: Ah well, beaten by your edit. :)

Depends where you work. If your workplace allows you to make a career on your skills (assuming you have those) then you might have a chance even if you work remotely. If you work in an organization (or don't have the technical skills) that needs non technical skills for career progression (i.e. bullying, ass licking, good luck, perseverance) then remote is unlikely to work for you. First step for you is to identify the organization you work at.
I assumed that they want to sell our data.
I tried to leave some details here on the situation downthread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12849375

As for actual technical differences, the vast majority of them are bugs introduced during the copying process, or just places where they haven't caught up to our bug fixes/new features/removals of unimplemented features. (Bug fixes especially roll in quite frequently; see https://github.com/whatwg/html/commits/master .)

There are some differences around conformance requirements, as some of the W3C HTML editors see their fork as a venue for writing a nice official-looking documenton how they think certain HTML elements should be semantically interpreted and used. The big ones I remember are around figcaption, main, hgroup, and others. My favorite is when they made it a high priority to change one of the examples not to use the Flying Spaghetti Monster since it might be controversial. This does not affect implementations of browsers though, just what conformance checkers (validators) like http://checker.html5.org/ tell you about whether your document is conformant.

You can get a full comparison via the third-party tool https://diffofhtmls.herokuapp.com/.
You can get quite large code size savings by using the original 8 registers everywhere you can get away with 32bit instructions - which is quite often, since they zero the upper 32 bits. e.g. XORL eax, eax will zero 64bit rax. Compilers don't seem very good at this, but I find I can usually save 10% code size when coding assembly routines just by paying attention to instruction width and which registers are used where. With 64bit instructions it doesn't matter which registers you use, the rex prefix is used anyway.

Hi Thomas,

I am considering transitioning from my current position as a senior front-end dev to a different environment. Pretty comfortable and already working remote full-time in Canada, just looking for a change and maybe a bit better compensation.

Pretty sure I tick all your boxes in the requirements section and already experienced working remotely. Any chance you can disclose a salary range you are aiming at?

I didn't make that argument. I was arguing that the people wanted contradictory things. The courts are just caught in the middle.
The kernel is compiled with -Os for code size last I checked (which was long ago) so that might explain the difference.
Not necessarily. For example except for LEA, they do 2-operand arithmetic. The only thing where x86 wins hands down is addressing modes and immediate moves.

Being European with a grandfather who was one of the few German survivors in Stalingrad, having grown up with a view of my grandparents home that had a wall that looked different than the others because it had been hit by a bomb I have a hard time relating to your argument.

I do agree though that the characters and writing in general could have been stronger. That's unfortunately the trade off with hard sci-fi though. Have you read much other hard sci-fi?

You typically have to read hard sci-fi for the ideas because the writhing trends to be mediocre at best. Try reading the average story in Analog and you will see what I'm talking about
