Nvidia manages to do this without any conflict with the kernel maintainers by simply not mainlining the code. If functionality trumps code quality, AMD can release kernel modules.

Perhaps the best current solution for all parties is for AMD publish sources on github and release kernel modules while getting PRs from the community to get the code up to meet the kernel standards. When the time comes, it will be duly mainlined.

I'd recommend reading the original story[1] if you've only read this wave of criticism about it. The PropOrNot portion is only a relatively small part of the whole piece.

And yes, they may have jumped the gun on that source a bit. But I also think the characterization that this is neo-McCarthyism (see The Intercept's hysterical take [2]) by the Washington Post is far out of whack.

The piece as a whole, regarding Russian interference in the election and use of social media for propaganda, is a well researched piece and continues to be vindicated by reports and news that has come out since.[3][4]

"So what happens when the Douglasses are no longer around? We have every reason to believe that we'll be around for a good long time, but we wanted a plan to provide for our loyal customers just in case we aren't so lucky. So we made one.

Here is how the plan works. Immediately upon learning of our deaths the executors of Dick's estate (his two highly computer literate kids) will post two files on our www.compmngr.com web site and will send out a broadcast email advising our customers how to download the files. The first file is a small standalone computer program called RegisterEvent.exe, which allows you to create your own registration files. So you won't have to register with Douglass Associates and you won't have to pay a registration fee. You can read more about RegisterEvent and how to use it below. The second file is a ZIP file containing all the source code for COMPMNGR and its supporting programs. This file will only be of interest to those few users who want to continue COMPMNGR development and who either know C++ programming or or willing to hire a C++ programmer."
I'm not convinced it's against the spirit of it though. Freedom of speech is about the right to express thoughts without fear of government retaliation or censorship. The "right to be forgotten" is essentially about censoring one's own speech, which is quite different.
Wow, if ever there was an article contorted by an agenda, it's this one. An application of Hanlon's razor surely wouldn't hurt (and fits well with the hair cutting "example").

She even admits that laziness or inertia is a pretty good explanation for the hair phenomenon - but clearly, "it is a side effect of Western racism"! While there certainly has been issues for minorities because of the dominance of Western beauty ideals, this is a pretty lazy argument in itself. Especially since some ethnic haircuts were a successful, direct response to this.

And, oh yeah, it must be "the industry" colluding against everybody - never mind that most barbers and hairdressers are just people making a living. Maybe the solution is to stop going to a "stylist" in a city and find a local hairdresser in your neighbourhood - but that, of course, takes effort.

From there on, it just keeps getting worse with the unfounded paranoia, e.g. asserting that "TV advertisers don’t seem to want to know [...] what types of ads women respond to" without any facts. I'm going to call BS.

What a terrible article.
But then they don't get the free lunch of kernel people maintaining and fixing their stuff.

Well, I think Breaking Bad is also on Netflix.
The best part about PLEX: They aren't immune to the standard destruction mechanisms when a ship blows up. So if you're carrying 1, or more, around in a ship, and it gets blown up, it's very possible the PLEX will be lost forever as well without being consumed to give in-game time.

People in EVE like to jokingly refer to having PLEX in your ship's cargohold while flying around as "PLEX armor". Never, ever carry it with you. Always leave it in a station, because you will get blown up. Especially if you're near the market hubs, as people are constantly scanning ships to see if there's a juicy-enough target to blow up.(even though they'll lose their own ship doing it)
If it is strategically important, then they should allocate enough resources to do it right.
On the other hand, our demand for energy will increase with the greater supply (this has happened with oil and coal).
The game has never been re-released to run on modern machines, making it incredibly difficult, if not nearly impossible, to play now.

The begining of this article explains pretty well why I prefer an MBA to anything else. For other companies, the same product line has completely different products, with different build qualities, specs, compatibility, etc.

With an MBA, I can just pick it up, and stick ArchLinux onto it. No need to check if this particular one had the bad build quality or not.

Other companies need to start learning from this example and get their shit together. We don't want 20 product lines, which each vary every month. We want to be able to pick a laptop without a week's worth of research!
The problem with attaching the listener to the 'actual' target is that it goes wrong when your markup is dynamic and so the target element is not (always) there the moment you create the listener.

This is why one of the early lessons you learn as a jQuery user is to use $().on() instead of something like $().click();

Plus, while I don't suppose it's a real performance issue much of the time, adding an event listener to each of, say, a few hundred items in a list is probably rather inefficient compared to adding it to the root element of the list.
Which they generally fail at due to lack of manpower and pace of changes in the kernel.
Indeed I disregarded this subtlety in my reply. Why? Because I asked you a question.

I don't mind putting in work to answer questions, but I won't put in busy work. If there's someone in front of me that knows the answers, I'd rather ask that person than try to find those answers again.

>a path which could have led to the "enlightenment" you sought.

But I wasn't seeking "enlightenment," or anything of the sort. I was seeking a piece of knowledge that you posessed. You essentially told me to go find it myself. I'm not doing that, because my time is a finite resource, and the person I'm talking to already knows and could tell me.
I'm sympathetic to BSD, but that seems like a lot of misplaced blame to me.

Companies don't write FreeBSD drivers because there's no ROI for the hardware companies. Making the drivers doesn't help them sell more hardware. Likewise, the LK devs made these decisions because their vision of the kernel doesn't involve HALs, not to spite FreeBSD.
...Well than you'd sue me when I testified accurately on the stand, and that would hardely be ideal, now would it?
Money (developer time) and some deluded idea that drivers, of all things, can be made portable across kernels.

Damnit. Why can't this be simple?

Is this type of thing really personal information, though? Would it be something covered by RTBF?
It's not the same. Here is why: the program correctness doesn't depend on when (or even whether!) that automatic memory management happens. Lisp systems have been bootstrapped without having a working garbage collector upfront. Short-lived Lisp images run as processes in a conventional OS might never have a chance to collect garbage.

Laziness has precise semantics which has to unfold properly, or else things don't work.

Delaying evaluation is not the same thing as delaying reclamation. They are opposite in a sense, because we only allow something to be reclaimed when it is "of no value".

Hey Faizan !

When, last year, french Law Enforcement asked your company for the connection logs of terrorists that used your VPN service to connect to the admin panel of an ISIS propaganda website, you never answered.

When they wanted to subpoena the servers that where located in France, the only ones they had jurisdiction over, and for which your company had a legal obligation to keep the logs, they discovered that you stopped using servers in France after their first request for information.

How do you feel about ISIS using your infrastructure ?

P.S. Please don't try to tell me I'm lying. I obviously can't prove what I'm saying, but maybe you should ask your staff about all requests from law enforcement from the last two years, and filter those with the word "terrorism" on them. Then ask your staff why those received no answer.

Kudos to Bose for marketing. Can't wait to see the execution.

Today, people who wore glasses or had to wear hearing aid were those with vision and hearing problems. We are moving to an era where we would voluntarily wear visual/hearing aid all the time because they enhance our natural abilities so much that it would be hard to do without it. We are now starting to augment the most basic senses with technology, in a way that is affordable enough that everyone will be doing it. In that sense, this is the dawn of an era of bioelectronic super humans.
I just started at Google this week, and this is something I'm terrified of. Side projects are vital to my personal identity and development, and knowing that I own them is vital to my motivation. The thought that my employer might try to claim ownership of work I've done all on my own fills me with apprehension and I still haven't figured out what I will do about it.

My old employer was one I felt that I could trust to not abuse its power.
Nice tool man. I am going to use it for generating a bit of buzz for the website.
It's not unheard of for contracts to be renegotiated, especially when it is so obviously beneficial to all parties involved.
Pure FP deals with state!
You may be technically correct (the best kind of correct, of course), but companies do love their options. And for you to be able to take them away, you need to have some kind of negotiation leverage. If you're Geoffrey Hinton, you've got what you need; if you're Joe Schmoe, chances are you don't.
Too many startups are trying to disrupt the industry, thus creating the problem, that cannot be solved by one more startup. Its the same problem with, say, capitalism. You cannot solve it by organising one more political party. I am not saying capitalism is bad. Its a problem.
That's not the case though because THEY are basic income receivers too -- EVERYONE receives even the 1% and elites. That's one thing that makes it better than current welfare. People on welfare KNOW they're 'leeches' and with that comes a stigma of being a trashy person because you can't get enough jobs to supply enough income for your family.

Take away welfare, give everyone the same amount monthly, and it's a citizenship 'right' or contract for being a good citizen of the United States. The only stipulation is you HAVE to have a physical address to mail the checks to -- meaning if you still for some reason want to be homeless even w/ the added income then you're sol. The goal should be 100% end to starvation and homelessness.

On top of that it spurs growth of the economy. When robots do take over and 50% are unemployed -- who will shop at walmart, or amazon? Absolutely nobody. The money will still flow up to the 1% in droves, for the absolute necessities, but eventually even that will drip dry. Give money to the poorer people though and they end up spending 100% of whatever they make usually.

This goes right back to the Walton's most likely, but it increases economic power, and gdp. I also think if you give everyone enough to be across the poverty line, then we could move to a flat SALES tax over income which would have lower tax for legal citizens / etc and more for those who are undocumented, or travelling through the states. Then we could alter and adjust the national sales tax every year or so based on whether we have a surplus or deficit. We can also do away w/ the IRS completely and end more bureacracy.
If you're looking for an Alto simulator (and who isn't?), you should definitely use ContrAlto rather than Salto. I used both simulators while restoring an Alto. ContrAlto is much more reliable and provide tools for examining the Alto's internal behavior, while Salto tends to crash after a few minutes. The only drawback to ContrAlto is it is in C# and only works on Windows.

I wrote instructions on using ContrAlto here: http://www.righto.com/2016/10/simulating-xerox-alto-with-con...
Not really severely. It has a few questionable tweaks here and there.

The questionable part is CPU companies not pushing for upstream integration, so you get e.g. Qualcomm Linux. In fact, the process is not pushing, it is pulling. (some people have started working on it, still long way off)

It can be done, as shown by efforts by TI, ARM and many more...

My iPhone's lightning cable failed on my, and they needed SEVEN DAYS to check it before I could get a replacement.

I the meantime, I had no choice but to buy a second one to use during that week (I'm now stuck with two cables). If you consider how expensive they are (and I've no use for two!), it can't really get much worse than that.
that becomes a question for lawyers at the appropriate time.

Put it like this:

not having a side project because you're afraid your employer will sue will get you exactly and definitely $0.

Having a successful side project will teach you a ton of useful stuff and probably earn you more than $0 even after the lawyers have finished arguing (depending on your definition of successful).

Yes, that's why I specifically cited copyright and defamation of examples of suppression of information that are not censorship. But forced redactions under TRTBF are clearly censorship.

>I've never understood this argument. Contracts are a two-way street; why should the NFL demand ever-increasing fees for a product that's being watched by fewer and fewer people?

Exactly. As bad as this is for ESPN, it's even worse for the NFL. Ticket prices cannot sustain the league. Merchandising cannot sustain the league. The only thing that can sustain a league as rich as the NFL is massive television royalties. I predict that the next few years are going to be very uncomfortable, as the NFL and TV networks have some very tense negotiations over how much the product (football games) is actually worth.

I understand the point you're making but you are quoting numbers of suffering due to war which defeats the purpose of arguing the suffering saved by going to war.

Plus the American involvement wasn't out of humanitarian reasons either. They only joined the war after getting attacked by Japan themselves. Which, which since I support retaliatory action if another party has already initiated war, would mean the US followed my stance on war in that regard.
It's awful and shouldn't be normalized: which is the point of the ACLU's argument. If this guy, whom is also a US citizen I might add, is suspected of breaking the law, law enforcement needs to meet the burden of proof of obtaining a warrant and not just walk all over the Constitution.
We are currently living in the current age, not several centuries ago.

Should one accept terrible medical care, as such care would be considered revolutionary a few centuries ago?

Additionally, there were people back then whose intellectual output was their own and were able to do things with that output.
ESPN is cable, right? Don't most (if not all) cable providers have internet packages? If that's the case, anyone who's getting EPSN is surely has access to connectivity greater than 28.8 kbps.
Sure, everything non-trivial is Turing-complete. But FP begins as a stateless paradigm and then tacks on state as a sort of a kludge while all the while seeming to be a little embarrassed about it, while OO embraces state from the beginning as part and parcel of the mental model that it endorses. I find the OO model has a better impedance match to my brain and the real world. Reasonable people can (and do!) disagree.
Profit maximizing capitalists prefer the regulation. Especially if they have an existing property portfolio, a regulatory market against building provides an insulation from risk and a better return on their existing investments.

New buildings require a much longer minimum investment timeline because the building doesn't exist yet. It's also far easier.

So if you let the free-market write the rules here, you'd get essentially exactly what we already have, because that's essentially exactly what we've already done.

Instead, if you really want a free-enterprise approach that encourages better land utilization, you'd need to look before you leap. For instance, a conservative rent and property resell value control would guarantee a maximum ROI for the buy/hold and do nothing/dump strategy. Otherwise, you'd have to indirectly subsidize new developments through tax breaks and other financial incentives (which is exactly what is happening)

Alternatively, if you're willing to forgo the engineering and manufacturing of markets you could use community land trusts, which is likely a far simpler and less issue-prone model of execution. I've personally invested in a few and have seen a long-term, stable, dependable 3% ROI (which is better than other equally conservative vehicles) so this doesn't mean that capitalists and investors are gone - just all the messy parts.
