Well, often they can't write these characters at all [1] (this video is for Japanese, but the situation must be similar with Chinese)

[1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJNxPRBvRQg

I can recognize more than a thousand of characters (thanks to Anki) but visualising/writing them is another matter entirely, and I would probably fail to write a large fraction of them. Just like with alphabetic characters, I memorize the "shape" of the character rather than its sequence of strokes. Only when the character is indistinct, or similar to other characters do I bother to remember which radicals it consists of.

For example the character for "dream" (夢) has a very distinctive shape that is easy to recognize, so I wouldn't be able to write it because I never learned how.

Now take the character 緑 (green). It looks similar to 線 (line), but lacks the radical 白 (white). Because green is not white, you see (not actually, it's just a memorization technique). But it also looks similar to 録 (recording). That's because the character for "green" has radical 糸 (thread), just like "line" character. Threads can be green, and they are also lines. But "recording" uses radical 金 (metal) in its place, because recorders are made from metal. So the only things I remember about 緑 is that it has 糸 and doesn't have 白. And thus, I still won't be able to write it.

Same applies to CPU and number of cores. A common pitfall for example for ElasticSearch, which bases its default threadpools on the number of visible CPUs. The isolation layer is indeed very thing and leaky in all places.

Great points. I'm personally tying to avoid Google services as much as possible, but I guess I was thinking in a more general context. Even so, your points still stand. (Small obligatory remark: incognito is entirely client side.)

The silver lining might be, considering your ISP can now access your data, that maybe the culture will shift and people will take online privacy a little more seriously, both applicastion and services providers and users. Maybe people will stop sending user analytics in plain text all the time. Maybe people will expect tls everywhere. Maybe a layer 3.5 overnet will emerge..
Excellent article on how to build an actual dev community around a platform. I think my fav takeaway is to be honest with devs, something a lot of platforms tend to fail at, as they tend to focus on how they are the best for all use cases.

Recompiling the Lost Vikings
J and other variants were bad ideas and continue to be bad ideas. They abandon one of the more powerful aspects of APL: Notation.

Here's a paper by Ken Iverson about the power of APL notation:

http://www.eecg.toronto.edu/~jzhu/csc326/readings/iverson.pd...

Why does J exist?

Back in the mid 80's (I don't remember exactly) dealing with APL on IBM PC's was not easy. You really had to want to run APL.

For example, we had to hack the equivalent of today's graphics card to replace the character ROM with one programmed to display APL characters. The more advanced modification allowed you to throw a mechanical switch and go between APL and non-APL characters.

Printing APL characters required using very specific printers and changing the print wheel or ball (IBM printers) with versions having APL characters.

Again, you really had to want to run APL to endure this. And, that, of course, affected adoption. You couldn't run APL on any random IBM PC or clone on a desk.

So, Iverson, despite identifying notation as one of the more powerful features of APL, ends-up "going commercial" by transliterating APL symbols into combinations of ASCII characters. Now you could run something that behaved like APL on any computer. And, of course, it was a complete abomination. Terrible thing.

I think I can say the APL community rejected J almost universally. Doing this was a terrible idea. And a short-sighted one at that. It wasn't long til all computers had the ability to display expanded character sets and eventually full graphical canvases where anything was possible.

J was a commercial reaction to a hardware problem that evaporated very quickly. J was not a commercial success for reasons obvious to those of us who used APL professionally every day for years: It was a hot mess and almost diametrically opposed to what made APL so incredible to use in solving problems through computing.

I would stay far away from J. As brilliant as Iverson had to be to create APL when he did, J, as far as I am concerned, was an almost unforgivable mistake.
macOS supports cron, but doesn't have a command line flux tool.
Ideally, I want a scheduled gradual sunset over one hour or so. I want it to work so that my eyes and brain have time to adjust, and I don't even notice the change, like a slow sunset. I don't see how I could do this with a cronjob and f.lux. Am I missing something?

For this reason, I actually used a patched version of Redshift back when I was on a Linux desktop. Now I'm on a Mac. I used to run f.lux, until Night Shift came out with the superior scheduling options.

I do believe in the "amount of blue-green light" argument from the f.lux guys, and would like to see a way to configure macOS to almost completely eliminate blue light, like f.lux does. If f.lux were to introduce a simple schedule option a'la Night Shift, I might switch back.
I think you're onto something. I also think this falls into investigative journalism - which used to be able to drum up funds for that sort of cost.

There are all sorts of problems like this. What could you learn from the browsing history of people that work in sensitive areas? i.e. nuclear facilities, national labs, financial/industry regulators, etc. City and state representatives probably give away a lot through browsing. There's plenty of low lying fruit ripe for exploiting in huge ways.

Another avenue: merely knowing when someone is likely to browse the internet tells you:

-they're awake

-they're at home/indications of their location

-their level of awareness (think security workers or even prison guards)

Imagine being able to figure out the best time of day to hit a bank by browsing history? In an aggregate way you could probably figure out staffing (corporate level) or whether someone's home (residential level).
Took me three clicks to view the source code. Have you looked at it? Bloody hell. It's a CSS file. All the hard work is in finding the problem. Which this man has done for you.

In the time it took you guys to comment you could have written the user style yourself after looking at the source code.

I cannot believe the degree of cargo culting that goes on on this website around security.

Lots of interesting points but I don't know if I agree with the conclusion:
"
Beyond the case of Deep Learning, I believe that a concentrated effort on the basic
Science of Intelligence and not only on the Engineering of Intelligence is high priority
for our society
"

In my view, it seems like the so-called "engineering of intelligence" is continuing to prove extremely fruitful and racing ahead of the "science" of intelligence. It may well be that models are growing in complexity beyond what we can explain/understand theoretically.

Also, there are already a ton of extremely useful existing tools for intelligence, and to me it seems like what's missing is not better algorithms but more engineers to weave intelligence into more parts of life.
Here's a port to C# that's hopefully more straightforward for people using other languages[1] (especially languages without slices).

You can share resources between VMs (frontswap etc. and deduplication, using network file systems like V9FS instead of partitions) but it complicates security.

It is still safer than containers as one kernel local root bug does not break a VM, but breaks a container. The access to hardware support also allows compartmentalized drivers and hardware.

I really don't care what you do, my only "assumption" was that you claimed, repeatedly and loudly, that privacy advocates should step away from SNI and that SSL was "so flawed". You didn't start making your statements only apply to yourself until you ran out of arguments that people should do just that.

Also I went looking for TLS libraries released in the past ~10 years without SNI, my only "assumption" about users was that there were myriad of other reasons why you wouldn't want a decade old TLS implementation (the biggest one being security). If you have a more recent example, I'd love to hear it.

If you don't want people to ask for evidence when you make general statements like you did for quite a while before you decided this must be a personal attack, then don't tell people quite clearly what they should do if they care about privacy.

Coming from someone who loved writing apps with Ember, before moving on to other things, I think this is a step in the right direction. Having the UI library as its own standalone thing is a great move.

That said, it's way too hard to figure out how to buy into this thing without adopting the whole ember-cli ecosystem.

Ember-cli is a fantastic achievement, but for god's sake, give me a CDN link with a global `glimmer` object so I can at least play around with the thing in one of my projects, without buying into the entire ecosystem first!

I know that Ember is the "we'll take care of your whole app" framework, but with Glimmer maybe there's a chance here to cater to folks who love libraries like React, because they can get started with about 5 lines of code bunged into an html file and grow from there.

Let me start small, and make it easy for me to grow big.

A container needs 10-100 syscalls, depending how much isolation you want. A single unshare() and exec gets you some benefit. You are out by orders of magnitude.
"If it leads to a higher quality of life for the poor while not negatively impacting our economy, who cares?"

not sure if this has been thought of before but why don't you just have kite cloud index open source and public code, and then have a separate local index for the user's project code. That way, autocompletes/help/doc searches first the user's project index (local), and then search the kite cloud for public/opensource code index.
I think it's important to realize that the reduced isolation of containers can also have pretty significant upsides.

For example monitoring the host and all running containers and all future containers only means running one extra (privileged) container on each host. I don't need to modify the host itself, or any of the other containers, and no matter who builds the containers my monitoring will always work the same.

The same goes for logging. Mainly there is an agreed-upon standard that containers should just log to stdout/stderr, which makes it very flexible to process the logs however you want on the host. But also if your application uses a log file somewhere inside the container, I can start another container (often called "sidecar") with my tools that can have access to that file and pipe it into my logging infrastructure.

If I want multiple containers can share the same network namespace. So I listen on "localhost:8080" in one container, and connect to "localhost:8080" in another, and that just works without any overhead. I can share socket files just the same.

I can run one (privileged) container on each host that starts more containers and bootstraps f.e. a whole kubernetes cluster with many more components.

You can save yourself much "infrastructure" stuff with containers, because the host provides them or they are done conceptually different. For example ntp, ssh, cron, syslog, monitoring, configuration management, security updates, dhcp/dns, network access to internal or external services like package repositories.

My main point is that by embracing what containers are and using that to your advantage, you gain much more than by just viewing them as lightweight virtualisation with lower overhead and a nicer image distribution.

Edit: I want to add that not all of that is necessarily exclusive to containers or mandatory. For example throwing away the whole VM and booting a new one for rolling updates is done a lot, but with containers it became a very integral and universally accepted standard workflow and way of thinking, and you will get looked at funny if you DON'T do it that way.

That's no more an edge case than the cases where you throw away the return value or you're binding to an ambiguous type e.g. `A getFoo()`, `B getFoo()`, `Object foo = getFoo()`.

My bad. They're the same (as others noted). Was not familiar with them.
It's not so much the upload, but the fact that it will always be unclear (and dynamic) what this service will do with a particular LOC. You might store sensitive documents in Google Drive, but it is unlikely you will type something sensitive into Google Search. Because it is a smart autocomplete feature, there will always be lack of clarity of when they delete your files, if at all.

Github and PaaS do not have any direct benefit of storing my lines of code forever. There is no logical comprehension of doing so. If they are caught, they will lose customers forever. In a service like this, however, it can always be claimed that the storage was done in order to make the service smarter. Which would be true. But it would be dangerous.

It is also worthy to note that this is a live tool. With other services, one has a chance to clean their code before upload. With this, even playing around with an API with embedded keys in your code has already put you at risk.
Yep, looking at the screencast, Magit does exactly what this tool does, except much better.
This is my primary concern about Teslas. I'd love one from a pure tech and driving point of view, but I'm not willing to submit to a panopticon just to get one.

My second concern is aftermarket serviceability. I would never buy a car that the manufacturer could later remotely disable (leaving me with no recourse) just because they feel I've breached their ToS or something. Tesla is far too much like Silicon Valley software companies in that regard - 99.9% of the time "you'll be fine", but the other 0.1% of the time you're screwed and there's no way to fix it.
I guess twilight is out of the question? Outstanding app imo.

I'm trying to understand something. At my last work we had a big problem with "works for me". We started using Vagrant and all those problems disappeared. Then Docker became popular and all of a sudden people wanted to use that instead.

But is Docker really suitable for this? While each Vagrant instance is exactly the same Docker runs on the host system. It feels like it will be prone to all sorts of dissimilarities.

There's also Datamancer's version.[1]

As someone who restores old Teletype machines, I'm used to typing on real mechanical keyboards, where pressing a key releases a clutch and a shaft makes one turn as the encoding takes place. You can't press a second key until the first has been processed, which takes about 200ms. You have to type at the machine's speed, or slower.

Probably the best computer keyboard - the original Xerox Alto.

Worst keyboard ever - the Enigma crypto machine. Huge key travel, more than half an inch. Huge key force, because you're advancing the code wheels, and the friction of the 26 contacts on each wheel is huge. That's why they didn't add more code wheels; beyond three, it's too hard to push the keys. Bigger machines used motor drive but were not portable.
