None of this is a show stopper, especially with a little planning. AKA pad the structures a bit initially, or put version numbers in them. Even if you fail to do any of that early on, it can be bolted on with a bit of preprocessing as part of a version upgrade. Its really no different than a schema change between version numbers. Plus, if your really paranoid, you verify field size and offsets at startup time against a previously generated bit of metadata.

Also, if you happen to need to pick out a tiny bit of data from some huge tree/whatever data structure then map it with appropriate madvise() and simply let the kernel page in the portions you need to access. The whole dataset doesn't need to be read to pick out a couple bytes here and there. Further if this is a common use case you probably shouldn't be using this method anyway, rather storing the index separately from the data in a manner which allows them to be accessed independently. This mechanism holds up for multiple TB sized datasets, and can be tuned by playing with the amount of physical ram in the machine vs the speed of the disk. Then when storage class memory takes off, you don't even have to rewrite your application.

Finally, for a single GB dataset, doing a bulk read is likely well under a 1 second operation on most reasonable storage mechanisms available for server use. Compared with picking off a couple hundred thousand fields from an object storage mechanism this is going to seem pretty speedy.
PCE has very simple code, and unlike Basilisk II, doesn't make use of threads (which Emscripten didn't support at the time). Basilisk II also uses a SIGSEGV handler to catch invalid memory accesses, this would have to be coded around. I'd still like to port Basilisk II, which is feasible now due to new browser APIs, but it's a big project.

The Macintosh ROM is up to the website (e.g. archive.org) to provide, along with the disk images.
A lot of these questions can be answered easily of you setup some sort of protocol within your application for form validation and error handling.

In TXR Lisp, a continuable exception occurs every time you see a warning about something in the code, like an unbound variable. It is intercepted higher up and automatically continued.

The code expander has an entry point which allows the caller to be informed about what variables and functions are free in a block of code. The implementation of this entry point works by intercepting warning exceptions about unbound symbols, and accumulating them in in lists, which are then returned to the caller.

This is a useful thing which reduces the need for users to write their own code walker in certain kinds of advanced macros.

Yes. Free, broadcast radio, which is what I'm speaking about, comes to you because advertisers pay them to hijack your hardware and feed you a message you don't want to hear. That's literally how it works, and it should be unsurprising that you cannot outlobby them. (The great caper, of course, is that everybody pays for cable but those television channels still have advertising on them.) It's weird that people like capitalism, but then want capitalism on strictly their terms: in the modern age, thanks to market pressure, radio with few exceptions exists to allow Bob's Turnpike Honda to tell you about their President's Day sale. The rest is designed to develop an audience for that function. That's just the nature of the game now.

Solution: Pay for content you like so that more broadcasters enable those options. No ads. Done. This applies to pretty much every broadcast medium including the Web. Sirius XM, Netflix, Amazon Prime, YouTube Red... toss a few bucks at Apple Music and get into podcasts. This is a fixable problem without worrying about how loud the SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY spot is on your local radio station, and it's far more fixable now than it was even three years ago.

Notice I said I formerly worked in broadcast radio. Inventory is decreasing in terrestrial. Satellite and alternatives are winning. That problem is only going to become worse in terrestrial radio. It's weird, though, because radio also serves a vital role with EAS, local news, and other functions. I remember when Clear Channel started collapsing all the locals and Sirius and XM launched, most of my peers said the end was nigh. I don't know how it'd "end," but it's slowly worsening.

And no, calling anything I just said "unethical" is a misunderstanding of the word ethical.
> Japan and China inject money into the economy by building, and sometimes overbuilding, publicly funded infrastructure

I wouldn't point to these as a panacea for economic policy. China has ghost cities which they won't populate: the people for whom they were built can't afford to live there.

Japan is overworked, sleeping in the office and drinks with the boss are mandatory. Is that the society towards which we ought to advance?

AFAIK, something similar applies to road infrastructure, at least sometimes: There are rush hour traffic jams on the highway so the government adds lanes. As a result, more people move homes and offices to locations near the highway and the traffic delays remain the same.

Perhaps it tells us something about what users really want: More (functionality on websites / homes in the suburbs) as long as it doesn't increase latency beyond (3 seconds / 45 minutes).

The other link posted here confirms they use the length to select popular passwords of that length. See "step 2": http://www.cerias.purdue.edu/site/blog/post/purdue_cerias_re...

It doesn't say how they get the Gmail address to correlate back to the known length password though.

I see the "light on details" reasoning, but it doesn't go well with the sensationalist "1 in 10 Gmail users."

Surely Google doesn't allow high rate guessing, they must throttle or temporarily disable targeted accounts.
I have mixed feelings reading an article like this. On the one hand I find it fascinating, and worthwhile to tell the story that these people are out here doing this, in many ways it's crazy, it and people should know about it.

On the other hand I feel like in a lot of ways this story is about confirming people's already entrenched views. Part of that is Mother Jones is hardly agenda-less. The other part is it's problematic to emphasize fringe groups support or dislike of mainstream politicians.

From the outside I'd say that the USA is not that far from a police state and getting closer with time. One would have to look away on purpose to not see the militarization of police.

But don't think it's only the US, this is a trend we can notice in Europe too.

As if the conditions of life were evolving towards possible uprising due to say growing poverty, diminishing buying power, increase in food insecurity, increasing gap between the rich and poor, unsustainable economy closing on its limits, etc. and the governments taking precautionary measures to protect themselves.

> Those actions say that they want to safety and security of the job that they don't enjoy rather than the risk and uncertainty of a startup.

I think it's quite possible to have both. Have a full time job, work on a side project, and if it becomes successful enough to quit your full time job, then do so. Startup without the uncertainty!

Granted, now you've pushed the odds of your startup failing from 95% to perhaps 98% (since you're not devoting all of your time to it), but what do a few percentage points matter at that level anyway? Replacing a 5% chance of winning the lottery with a 2% chance doesn't mean you should no longer play (especially since you've eliminated the stress of potentially starving).
I think it's more that Islamic culture seems to correlate with dictatorships. The Wikipedia article on it lists 47 islamic countries and says only one " Indonesia is the only Muslim-majority nation acknowledged as fully democratic by both Freedom House and Economist democracy indexes."

Which may be because having been to Indonesia it doesn't seem that Islamic - a lot of the temples are more Hindu in style. Maybe the documents of Islam with the death to apostates type stuff don't encourage democratic ideals.
Yes. I wanted to do that, but I couldn't find a png library on npm that supports encoding 4 bit paletted pngs. Fixing that was on my todo list from day 1.

Although now that I think about it, I could probably get close by using an 8bit greyscale image and then apply the palette in the client. That would probably halve the image size.

Decades is a long time. The internet is only 2.5 decades old and now you can click and have anything you want delivered to your doorstep. Your phone can tell you how to drive to avoid traffic. Your car already runs more software in it over a few minutes than the largest research universities could run in weeks. Image recognition has gone from "scanning digits on checks" to "outperforming humans on classifying images" (at least on some tasks) just in the past decade.

Which aspect of it do you think needs decades?

>> 1) You've not defined intelligence in an agreeable way, such that all parties are discussing the same thing (you seem to have interpreted his point about Sundar Pachai as successful due to being CEO of Google, but that may not be the case).

My last line was, "Perhaps stop correlating wrong things together?". My intention was to indicate that the person who wrote about Sundar Pichai is trying correlate something about the Google CEO to my original comment about aqui-hires.

It was not an exercise to define intelligence. I simply had to point out naivety of any correlations the parent commenter was trying to make.

>> 2) You've not defined intelligence in a rigorous way, such that all parties know it's meaningful even if they agree on it (is being CEO of a publicly traded company a robust proxy for intelligence? Can we positively correlate corporate success with intellectual formidability?)

Again, there was no exercise to define intelligence. You are misreading the context

>> 3) You have not established any empirical way to assess intelligence in these people aside from what you'd consider tautological (CEOs are intelligent, Pachai is a CEO, Pachai is intelligent) and therefore self-evident. But you can't discriminate between the relative intelligences of members in this group, especially remotely on a forum, which makes this an issue even if 1) and 2) are solved.

Same response as above.

>> People who want to filter for "intelligent" in their interviewing process can't define the term. People who come up with methodologies for assessing it, or identify proxies to it, can't prove they work. People who argue against these assessments or proxies can't prove they don't work because no one can even agree on what should be assessed. It's a Wittgensteinian clusterfuck all the way down, but the same human habits that gave rise to whiteboard interviews are perfectly manifested in the counterculture reaction to them and the resulting controversy.

Interesting you bring this up. Let us play a thought experiment. Who would you rather work with?

1. A person who wrote a VM for handling their cross-platform message queue but couldn't solve N-Queens problem

2. A person who can solve N-Queens problem on the whiteboard but doesn't have the engineering appetite/desire to learn something like VMs in detail

Now that you know who you want to work with (hoping you chose 1), let me ask you this. Why is data king? Have test scores ever been a representative of smartness? Is a person with 3.5 GPA worse than 3.75 GPA?

If your answer to above question is no. Then why is Google hiring committee rating people with their own notion of GPA and hiring people with a certain Google GPA?

Because, in that GPA competition, candidate 2 will win. But you didn't want to work with candidate 2 did you?
The analogy is (of course) imperfect. There's an element of risk and stochasticity in climbing the hill; you might fail, or you might realize you're actually doing the wrong thing.

If you stay at the bank, or at a nice job, you're almost guaranteed to continue that gradient ascent. It's not the case with a startup; it's not as simple as deciding to do it, having to deal with a local minimum, and then continuing upwards.

Many want to be at the top of the hill. Few want to take the risk of actually climbing it.

It's not only about the connectors. With ethernet(avb or dante) you get networking audio(ip based) and time sync over long cables. This is not really possible with USB, jacks, firewire etc. A single ethernet connector may have hundreds or thousands of audio channels but then you are right that a switch is required to split them so the low number of connectors may be an issue in some cases(unless you are willing to buy a switch)

Yes, that image is deliberately misleading to the lay person... it is showing how it up-samples from various inputs, each having greater resolution. It is impressive, but it seems to imply that it is doing something magical to produce a full resolution picture from a few mere pixels. What is actually doing is impressive enough, but it seems like an odd choice of promoting the work given the obvious visual implication which can't be an accident.

Your anecdotes are not an indication that the risk is overstated. Who knows what factors decreased the risk for you, and while you attribute it to 'engineering talent', it's far more likely to be something like more skill at using the network of connections you've established (most jobs are still filled this way).

Whatever that factor is, it isn't necessarily a common skill.
