> The only difference in the processors is the Xeon supports ECC, while the Core i7 doesn't. But Dell isn't shipping the laptop with ECC anyway.

The clock is faster, try the compare link[0].

And since I originally bought a XPS 15 with the i7-6700HQ then scored a deal on a Precision E3-1505M motherboard and frankensteined my laptop, I spent 30 seconds doing a benchmark[1]. The tl;dr is that for 6% faster clock, you actually get about 10% better performance, so the cache is contributing. Is it worth the Xeon mark-up? Probably not if I didn't come across a deal, but hey, this thing still costs way less then the local fruit farm alternative.

That explains the current state, but has little prediction value. The availability of parsable data can change at any moment either because of regulation or through market forces (either external companies providing parsable data as a service, or enough companies realising that providing plentiful parsable data about themselves attracts capital).

Once enough data is available, common sense and gut feeling can be programmed as a combination of fixed rules and machine learning.
The New Jim Crow by Michelle Alexander. Evidence-packed investigation of how the War on Drugs and mass incarceration have been leveraged to disenfranchise and oppress black people in America. It is infuriating and upsetting and inspiring to read (and provides excellent context for Black Lives Matter and the protests over police brutality).

More than anything else, the statistics Michelle Alexander bring together make the racism behind the system incredibly plain. If 6.4% of whites and 6.4% of blacks use illegal drugs in any particular year (and similar numbers for other minorities), and people tend to purchase drugs from people of their own race, it's insane that black people are incarcerated at a rate over 6x that of white people.

The chilling part is that, once you are convicted of a felony, you essentially become a second-class citizen. In 31 states, ex-felons cannot vote (or it's very difficult to do so). 13% of African American males are disenfranchised for this reason.

This is a pale summary of her book, I highly recommend reading it.
They just return the negative error number.

By "allows me to maintain a constant speed" I mean that I'm passing cars in the lanes to my right. Thus, I am the free-flowing traffic.
I'm thinking like an MBA here because that's how you have to think in order to reason about the price something has.

Yes, those factors are important! But are they also the main driver of cost? I don't know.

Could we have speed, reliabaility and size? That is a technological question. I don't have the answer to that.

Would enough people care to pay for speed, reliability and size? That's more of an MBA question and the answer probably is no.

The example given is: People pay extra to have 1 TB of flash in their machine but they are OK with only having 16 GB of RAM. The priority is even to have a lower power consumption instead of having 32 GB of RAM.

While you are right that we maybe cannot deliver the technology on a pure technological stance, you kind of miss the point. Even if we could, we wouldn't do it because of the MBAs driving the fincances in a certain direction based on (perceived) market forces.

I don't think this is true. Not at all.
Thanks for the info and source. That's a very comprehensive summary about the base legal requirements for the test pilots in California.

It's interesting to see that the burden of insurance falls upon the manufacturer. I think that's fair during these pilots.

I still think there are a ton of legal questions that need to be addressed though. Should self driving car algorithms be standardized across the industry for safety? Because of the nature of saving lives, should self driving software be open for inspection and review in ways other software isn't? If people modify the software in the car, who is responsible? Can car "owners" legally modify code when safety and lives are of concern?

I had a post that addressed a few of these:

Usually they are.

A new keyboard is like 40-50 € for most models, for example. But don't expect to get a sparkling new system board for 200 €. New rubber feet are like 10 € (but it's the whole set for all rubber feet of the system). For the X20x there are still some parts available new from distributors. Which is like 6-7 years of parts supply.
Honestly, maybe they just don't care? Rather, what should they do about it, what would we expect people with such huge earning potential right now to do other than push forward with the plan that works under the status quo.

Answering my own question: I'd expect bankers to save more (of their own money) in anticipation of the good times not lasting as long. More conservative types will weather the storm and spendthrifts will get wiped out.

In other words: business as usual, up until the very moment it isn't.

Now the interesting question is of course whether that 3 % difference holds up when these are used in an actual laptop, ie. does it make a difference before all of them throttle anyway?
Yeah, that's the one. Guess all the upside drawing confused my left and right :D
Absolutely. I would not say Korea is a good place to be in as a developer.
Mostly dominated by Korean corps. Some companies started my foreign ethnic koreans. They are good and nice places but pay is ...mediocre.

Koreans are also a bit racist but if you do not mind it's fine.
Assuming a 14 year copyright that would mean gcc 3.0 enters the public domain but the current version obviously has it's own duration. I don't see why they should get special treatment. Do they really need copyright of 14 year old versions of software and monopolise it? Are they that scared that someone takes some old version of gcc and uses it for a commercial application? Also nothing stops you from taking a public domain work (even your own) and slapping a new license on top of it if all you care about is the license not the monopoly.

Also the way the current copyright system works means those free software licenses are already "dead" by your definition. It's just through pure chance that the duration keeps getting extended retroactively. The only difference between the current system and the proposed system is in the duration and the fact that in the old system all works had effectively the same duration again through pure chance because it's based on the lifetime of the author.
Only after ~20 years. Before that, it would be free in either case.
Speaking in generalities and of an ideal world:

Whatever computations you are making should be composed in such a way that distinct, reused computation types are implemented in units, perhaps conceptually one type of transformation per function. Each of these functions should be tested by a collection of unit tests which verify that it performs the correct computation on hard-coded, mock data, both good and bad, and that it fails when it should.

In cases where multiple transformations are applied together and there is more complex behavior, the application should be designed so that those combinations of "unit" behaviors are done for a specific purpose, with a specific goal (e.g. warp this image and then project its shadow); you should have an integration test suite that verifies this more complex behavior performs the function it is supposed to. Here, you can probably be less strict about checking inputs since bad inputs should be covered by unit tests, but you should verify that there is proper error handling of multiple units failing.

These should all run using mock data as part of your CI process, and no code should ever be merged that has failing checks; new code should not be merged without code review verifying that testing of comprehensive.

Finally, there should be a QA process that verifies the final product when being considered for release, using real data and manual validation, ideally with acceptance criteria in hand that was written before the code changes were begun.

In the end, it shouldn't even really come down to trying to mock your APIs; your abstractions should, if at all possible, be decoupled enough that they perform transformations of data that they are given, regardless of whether it came from another API or not - so instead of considering "mocking the APIs" you call the relevant functions with example data of the sort you receive from the APIs that will be actually used.
12 Fun Facts About the Prime Number 2017
If drugs were legal to produce and distribute then it wouldn't be a black market and thus violence and criminality would reduce (people wouldn't buy from shady characters; they'd just go to the store and buy it like anything else).

I don't know any ricelords or any significant criminal gangs that distribute rice. This is only a problem encountered with drugs and other illegal things.

Also, (paraphrasing Milton Friedman), drug users don't report the crime unlike other crimes like burglary or murder because the victim is the offender.
> This is not the reason of the fork. The reason is that he refuses to give more people write access to the project to keep it going

Others don't need write access "to keep the project going" unless they intend to ship releases without him/her- they can make PRs and the maintainer will merge them when they are back. Perhaps the Gitea committers want a more predictable release cadence?

I agree that a fork is probably the best solution here, due to the impedance mismatch, the forkers don't seem to be fans of the BDFL model. Additionally, "community" is a much wider term than how you used it, it's not just other contributors but also includes users and bug reporters. I wish Gitea the best of luck, but I'll remain a Gogs user.
If faster-moving vehicles are able to get around you on the left and vehicles are not stacking up behind you, okay. If you're impeding traffic because you want to go a constant speed, pull over into a right lane and let the faster-moving traffic pass.
any idea how someone would go about this when writing a description is near impossible without giving everyone the ability to walk away with the idea themselves?
This is a prime example of why not to covet code coverage figures. They can never be taken at face value as an indicator of testing quality or comprehensiveness.

Incidentally, OP, I empathize - I had to learn it the hard way too.
Also "we'll update 1000 cars first, see if it works, and then update the rest of the fleet"... Uhm yeah.. So 1000 happy Tesla owners are going to beta test it until the rest gets it. Good luck.
Have you put what you read in Danny Flood's book into practice? I'd be interested in hearing your potential success story if you'd care to share it.
yeah but we are human and flawed, at least I am. this is just a practice that forces me to properly test and be less lazy, because I can't test it manually and move on.

And for syscalls that also have a meaningful return value, the ABI requires that valid errno values fall in the range -1 to -4095, to disambiguate them from any possible return value. Those values can't conflict with valid userspace pointers (since they'd point into kernel space), and syscalls must not allow them to conflict with valid numeric return values.
For my first appartment I used a broker as well. At the end of the process I discovered their added value was less than 0. Disregarding their fee, I paid too much for the appartement and they encouraged the high price, because they just wanted to close and receive their fee. When I bought my next house I did not use a broker. That's just the way things go, you live and learn.

People are more and more selling without a broker as well, or at least they start to use cheaper brokers where you only buy the service you need.
