Reason I'm asking is: I have an old Centrino laptop as well as an RPi2 and RPi3. The Centrino is so much faster than the RPi's, it's not even in the same league. And as long as the Raspberrys are married to Broadcom, I think it will take quite some time until we have an RPi that has similar speed like my old Centrino. Don't get me wrong, I love my RPis, and if my old Centrino breaks, maybe I'd do something similar, but I'd never trash it while it's still working. Just seems wasteful to me.
I had considered that, but that seemed the less likely scenario: that they'd intentionally let their business get damaged, rather than having issues that most large corporations face.

I mean, they clearly don't have a handle on a wide variety of bad actors in their ecosystem, but keep putting out awkward attempts at solutions. This suggests they're trying to fix perceived problems, but are avoiding the core of the problem because they either don't see it or don't have the political will to fix it.

So only pay for Netflix and just accept that you won't get everything available. There is already too much content to watch.

Netflix and Amazon aren't magic. Sure there is some industry of scale by selling their wares internationally and some savings by letting ISPs distribute their content, but fundamentally TV hasn't become cheaper to make. If anything, Netflix and Amazon are spending more than average amounts of money on their new content. That results in beautiful shows, but it's not cheap. And those services don't use commercials, which means they'll be more expensive than cable content that does.

You can get production and distribution separated, by paying per episode on itunes or amazon. But that is more expensive for heavy users because they can't bake in an unlimited plan. You can use these services to get the handful of shows you really want to watch but aren't on netflix or amazon.

It does seem pretty odd to consider software a telecommunication service, to me, absolutely. All the software is doing is wrapping up a message for someone else to send. It would sort of be like considering envelopes, paper and writing (when taken together) to be a mail service.

Taken another way, if we think of XMPP as a telecommunication service, and require providers to register, do we also consider HTTP to be a telecommunication service, and also require registration of every public access HTTP server? Both are protocols that, at their core, pass messages. Who's going to ratify all of those forms? This feels like it would be expensive to enforce, and if the law does not explicitly name XMPP (or explicitly define the difference between a telecommunication service that it covers and one that it does not in a way that excludes such widely used things as HTTP), it should not be selectively applied to XMPP. It should either be rewritten, or applied to technologies that existed or were expected when it was drafted.
"Prometheus Rising" by Robert Anton Wilson.

This is the book that tied together lot of things that I was wondering about previously and it opened up few doors into new mazes of research that I'm still trying to traverse.

Also, started reading books that he suggested:

http://www.rawilson.com/bookstore.html#rec

Edit: Added Wilson's suggested reading list
With good reason, I can imagine how paranoid that would make me. I'd definitely try to find how they found this out, starting with checking whether I posted it somewhere public. That would be the least worrisome scenario.
Some credit should be given to the war cry of the current (still pretty much current) regime : let's help the favored classes (I would say the weak, but lots of weak classes find themselves excluded) and everything will get better for everyone !

And then, for about 16 years, since the crisis of 2000 ... it didn't get better for everyone. Real income has been dropping since the 1980s, but it was almost steady until 1999. And then healthcare, fuel/energy and education really exploded. Of course this is the result of the crisis in 2008, which was of course not caused in 2008, but before then.

Obama got elected on the same platform as Trump, really. He was going to change things. Hope and change. The famous blue and red posters, his own characteristic style, all very memorable and well executed. An abundance of hope, but I must say the change was found somewhat lacking. Despite a nobel peace prize, Guantanamo was not closed, and there was a massive 2008 crisis, rather than a recovery (yes Obama promised an economic recovery from the situation BEFORE the 2008 crisis, remember ? The Bush tax cuts were the big bogeyman at the time).

Then the experience of the crisis came. Even if you weren't one of the people who kept the debt but lost their home, very few people did well during the crisis. Then there was the initial pullback, but aside from the 1% with lots of stocks nobody was really made whole.

Then the FED "fixed" this. They came up with what's commonly known as the "PCE deflator" because of oil. You see, because of the huge fuel/energy price rise people were using much less energy, and as a result it shouldn't be counted in inflation (or else inflation would have been close to 10%). Likewise, people use less housing, same reasoning.

That's great, but ... people still had less fuel/energy as a result, the banks just refused to count that as inflation. There's a famous Y Combinator article titled "There's a remarkable correlation between the quality of life and energy use". Likewise people have enjoyed less housing, all of which is not counted ...

Despite this massive adjustment to favor economic indicators under Obama, his policies have not improved the situation of the average American. All together I would say that, on a large average, and without counting inflation, Americans have gotten back about half of what they lost in the 2008 crisis. Counting CPI inflation sadly I'd say it's more like 20%.

And now they elect the other party.

The response "They must be evil racists !" (because let's be honest, "tribalism" is no more than a euphemism) seems like it might be missing the point a bit, aside from being entirely unhelpful.

Eknath has a deep understanding of Indian spirituality, in first 75 or so pages he explains it beautifully. He also explains how Bhagwad Gita is a map of how to live a life. These teaching can be applied even today to live a good life without too much stress.
"The Collected Works of Ralph Waldo Emerson"

I found this book (or a very similar collection of Emerson's works) bound in a small red hardcover the fall of my freshman year at a catholic high school. The essays "Self-Reliance" and the "Divinity School Address" were both important. "Self-Reliance" provided fuel to sit in a room of antique x86 parts to follow the blueprint that ESR's "Hacker Howto" laid out (install and learn FreeBSD; learn Python, Perl, C, Lisp; write software). "Divinity School Address" started me away from Catholicism.
"C is not a new dependency"

To just use a library, rust isn't much of a dependency, either. It's designed so you don't even need to know that it's not C.

Rust would obviously be a build dependency, but that's lessened somewhat because it tries to make cross-compilation easy.

(But this point does apply to pretty much any other language. Curl would not be used as widely if it depended on the Go runtime, for instance.)

I really don't think what he did was "honest" i.e. not meant to be provocative. As many sibling comments have pointed out, if you're making a living as a public personality, you kinda have to accept a higher level of scrutiny simply in order to avoid media hit jobs.
By focusing on your own needs above all else. Don't worry about befriending everyone. Be authentic and find people who like you for you actually are, not because you manipulated them into it.

I highly recommend checking out "How I Found Freedom in an Unfree World".
I'm not even sure what that means. So Google would rather use the same sensor hardware for 4 years in its Pixels, and just focus on the software? I'd rather they renew the hardware with something better as well, as the technology improves.

With all respect, it is the parents responsibility, not youtube or jontron, to make sure their little angel is not drinking in racist rants.
I think you missed the point of the post you are responding to. That person understands the value of the bug, and is just pointing out that Rust runs with unchecked math in production and would therefore be just as vulnerable in production. The benefit would come from it running with checked math in debug mode, but you, as the parent posted noted, would have to have a unit test or an integration test that realized this vulnerability to begin with and tried to exploit it.

The use of "unrealistic" was meant in the sense that you wouldn't think of it, not that you shouldn't guard against it once known.
Yes, but with the caveat that you'll be running interpreted .py using a cross-compiled Python executable, rather than Python compiled to Android bytecode. Kivy itself (the project that spawned p4a) is a full cross-platform library for UI development; for any heavy computational lifting you'd want to farm it out to a C API library and import it the usual way, modulo some p4a recipe incantations.
Eh....this may be an unpopular opinion but this article is supposed to make me feel really bad for the self imposed "workload" of Pewdiepie. Boo hoo, he's so disadvantaged... he made, from my quick research, something like $15 million last year alone. If $15 MILLION salary isn't enough for you that you have to keep "pushing the envelope" being "edgier" for more and more attention then I think you're probably being greedy and shouldn't really be surprised when you finally push it too far.

Maybe I'm the asshole, but I just can't muster up sympathy to empathize with the plight of someone who makes millions of dollars playing video games and making off color remarks.
I would say a portion of Rust community---that said, it is that portion that is the most visible, and I think the community well understands what it does mean.
It seems this could have application in conceptual interior design. Think room makeovers.
This is more or less correct now a days.

People don't want to read opinions anymore, they like to read information unless they are looking for something specific.

But if they are looking for something specific they want opinions and in that case their readership ends there.

For example :

If I want to know about how to setup a water sprinkler and make optimum use of my gardening equipment, I would look for sites which provide that information and stick with that site seeing it is providing me information on my gardening needs. But if I want to buy a water sprinkler I might just google for people who bought it or have reviewed it and once I am done buying I will forget about that site.
I always thought aliens would think the marks on the golden disk are as meaningful as the defects on the semiconductor chips. I can't imagine why they would wonder if it's a message.
Wait - what format? Netflix has no commercial-break rule or 3-act rule or pretty much any of the rigid broadcast TV rules. Individual episodes of some series may vary by half an hour in length.
I agree with you mostly, but isn't fb a forum? It most certainly has more capabilities like playing games etc, but it still carries basic forum principles. So is facebook wrongly designed?
Extracting just raw text from the Wikipedia dumps is pretty hellish. Apparently the official Wikipedia parser itself is something like one 5000 line PHP function. There are about 30 or so alternate parsers that attempt to do this with limited success. I tried a lot of those options, but eventually had to hack together some terrible scripts of my own to do the job.

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Alternative_parsers

It was for a web app that I made as a way to learn web dev. The data extraction from Wikipedia was what really killed my motivation and eventually left the project in a sort of amateurish, half-finished state. But, if any language learners wants to practice reading difficult English texts it might be somewhat useful:

I understand what you're saying and unfortunately it's true but it's also silly because Gitlab, Bitbucket and others can use Open Auth APIs to make contribution easier. I for example use Google Auth on Gitlab but Github didn't have that back when I signed up. If they did I would have used it there too.
These policies continue to infringe more and more of people rights of free movement, privacy and communication and exposes serious limitations of democracy.

The government can continue to take anti-people actions without anything approaching debate and discussion under the 'frenzy of an external threat' as all authoritarians in history have done and tend to do, untill it is operating for all intent and purposes like a quasi-authoritarian state.

As we can in the UK and here this has come to pass and democracy has no response for 15 years and counting. Elections are 5 years apart, and even then political parties advocate near identical policies. By the time people can organize, and they would have to take a break from their day-to-day lives - which many would have to think seriously about - and try to effect change, decades could pass with the situation getting progressively worse and without making headway.

If 'Death to all jews' -- let's not talk around it, that's what was written on the sign -- wasn't the crux of the joke, why didn't he go with something equally likely to be rejected by people who understand English, but less 'Death to all jews'? Frankly, I think it's because he's a moron who doesn't understand that actions and words, however digital and remote, have consequences. Now middle school kids can chortle together on the playground, "haha, 'death to all jews', that sure was funny". After all, the life or death of a Jew, that's just a punchline.

Lewis and Tolkien both spend a lot of time exploring the internal moral and ethical struggles of their protagonists, the development of courage, and the importance of doing the right thing even when no one is looking or in the face of opposition. This was hugely important to me as a kid, and recently I've been going back to The Lord of the Rings to read up on courage in the face of looming evil.
slowbeef is more recently known as a part of the Retsupurae duo (https://youtube.com/user/retsupurae), a channel that I've been following since 2011 and has maintained high quality videos the entire time.

You can buy Lord of the Rings as a single bound hardcover roughly 1200 pages. The paper is thin, its only about 2 inches thick. I'm thinking of the 50th anniversary edition. In terms of total amount of lifetime "wasted" playing DnD/Pathfinder and derivatives offline, plus infinite hours of computer fantasy RPGs plus perhaps the whole concept of RPGs in general, it probably has the largest impact in terms of hours spent thinking about the concept.

I can't provide a specific link but something only 70s/80s kids will understand is when I was about five and I finished reading every Tom Swift book ever written (as of that decade, anyway) I spent most of a week reading an entire single volume encyclopedia, trying to figure out how it all works together, or not. Before wikipedia, before "multimedia cdrom" encyclopedia, there were multi volume collections and large single volume collections. I'll push the limit and claim reading an encyclopedia entry about Kant or Impressionism or Bach or the american civil war isn't technical in the sense of "programming C" is technical. I admit there were technical articles in the book. It was weird reading a 60s liberal arts article about computers when I had an early TRS-80 home computer on my dad's desk.
Oh I wasn't suggesting that what he said wasn't meant to be provocative, the main instance they picked up was ill considered and in bad taste, but then if you watch any of his other videos this really shouldn't be a surprise.

The hit job was some of the other items they'd cut together to make the "anti-semetic" charge stick. One item where he was comparing youtube policies to those of the Nazi's (i.e. casting both in a negative light) the WSJ used as "proof" he was pro-Nazi. that's what prompted my thought of the quote.

We will not live in meat forever. Once strong AI happens, or maybe even before, human consciousness will be transcribable into more resilient matter. That type of consciousness could be hibernated for millennia in transit. Or play endless games in transit. Its a bit silly to imply "living organisms" a being somehow better, especially when the vast majority of future humanity will live their potential endless lives in smart-matter panels orbiting this and other suns.
That's a laudable attitude, but its feasibility is rapidly eroding in this always-connected world. Can't watch over the little angel's shoulder to see what's on their phone 24x7.

No competent C programmer is going to switch to rust based on the projects you've just mentioned. The comments in the commits speak for themselves.
Does Google's YouTube group host a line of communication between its product managers and content producers? Is there a service agreement between Google and its content producers around features and site behavior that will impact viewers and paychecks?

If not, then content producers are simply in a bad long-term position and they need to start looking for leverage against it, whether it's taking their subscribers elsewhere or getting a seat at Google's table so website and mobile app updates don't start mucking with subscribers getting their content to users.

OTOH, as a user, I don't want to be inundated with notifications and especially begging notifications if I unsubscribe to someone.

As mentioned during the speech, Adm. McRaven was describing his own SEAL training. Since SEALs are an elite branch of the US Navy, individuals have to explicitly volunteer to enter SEAL training, are screened to a very high standard, and are warned well in advance that the training is extremely taxing, both physically and mentally.
Occasionally you do get a pound coin that is slightly heavy. I guess those are the counterfeit ones. Bit hard for the layman to tell.
They also killed iGoogle in the same year, and that's what I used as my daily RSS feed. From Wikipedia: due to "the unforeseen evolution of web and mobile apps and the erosion of the need for the site", whatever that means.

While not exactly as strong as a conspiracy theory, I think they were well aware of what they were doing, and RSS was in the "best if absent" feature category.
You're right. AFAIK types and identifiers are always unambiguous in Rust. I was thinking visually (same operator) instead of in terms of specification and implementation. Shows me to make flippant comments from the toilet!

My larger point is that there are plenty of very good reasons to criticize C/++, and parsing is a minor one since parsing is fast, and even if the creation of the AST isn't context-sensitive, verifying its correctness (is this identifier in scope?) still is.

What is the context-sensitive spot in Rust's grammar?
I'd like to spend a bit of time on this and try it out! Write me. Would need a MatLab license to use on the server.
> therefore be just as vulnerable in production.

I think there's two components here: yes, this might lead to a _logic bug_, but it should never lead to a _memory safety_ bug. That is, to get that CVE, you need both, and Rust will still protect you from one.
