Compressed, it is ~8TB. Fully expanded it is ~32TB. I think the bigger issue is not the final size, but that internal Microsoft material - particularly source code - has escaped into public FTP. That, to me, is the main thing, right?

You should try tsx (typescript jsx). It is 100% first class code: autocomplete of names and attributes, type safety of attributes, unlimited mixing of tsx and JavaScript, rename refactoring, navigate to definitions, etc.

It is similar to a function based approach, but has many advantages that reduce code and increase productivity.

Here is a page of examples from me React typescript setup repo:

Scope small and ship often are easily the best advice points to give any aspiring game devs. I certainly made the mistake with Ethereal Legends allowing the scope to get beyond my ability and control, and because of that it took forever to ship.

I certainly won't make that mistake on the next game!
They give an indirect nod to friends play-testing in the "Time" section:

> "Friends around us were saying “it’s too difficult” right to our faces, but amidst our nonstop-no-days-or-time-off working, we were too dull to let it inspire action."

So I guess they did have some people play the game -- but they didn't build in the time they needed to properly use the feedback, so it was almost the same as not play-testing.
I live in Beijing and we use the air purifiers from Xiaomi to measure indoor air quality (and clean it up). It's true that eg frying bacon really makes the air quality index spike up a lot.
FPGA conversion has a 50k nre. Anything else and you need a team of people on your end to do things like verify quality.

The fun part is that you can sometimes sneak an trial design into a shuttle service. ( but good luck making that initial design!)
There's the letter of the law and the spirit of the law. People know the difference. And the few people who don't know the difference don't get a free pass for ignorance.

Unlimited bandwidth, free drinks, unlimited storage, etc., are all offered with some expectation of limits, with occasional spikes in use.

But let's back up a moment. 17TB is a lot of data. If you were a professional photographer or videographer, I could possibly imagine that need. Or if you were doing some truly big data work, or some financial algo backtesting (on a really grand scale), maybe. Those people should be able to afford storage prices in line with their amount of data.

Secondly, assume you lost your local drive. How are you going to restore 17TB? Whose network (that you're taking advantage of) are you going to saturate with your restore?
>"but I happen to be of the opinion that the original comment both noted a poor methodology and* clearly showed what about it was poor"*

You can happen to be of opinion about many things. But it didn't clearly note, or clearly show anything, as you have stated in your last comment. Its your opinion. And Its great that this is your opinion of course, but its not my opinion. That's why I commented.

Facts are not my opinion either. They are fact. Period. Facts usually get put in reports like this, not our opinion.

But the point is you need to already have a relationship, right? It seems you can't just say "I'm curious" (or even better, "I want to track down X bug") and expect to get source access, contrary to what was claimed earlier...

I think boost has definitely had a positive impact on c++ and the fact that large amounts of it are now in (or had a major influence on) the std library certainly makes it much easier to forgoe using it.

I have foobot if you want an IOT device. Seems to work. I have a brand new house and the formaldehyde/VOC levels were very high. It's sad that it's not regulated in the USA for residential (it is for office...). Opened the windows as much as possible. Now levels are low and I'm not as concerned.

I also got a cheaper monitor (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01N0MJJRO/ref=pd_aw_sim_sbs_... this has no reviews, but on mobile and don't feel like searching more) and this works as well for fast instantaneous readings. One day my wife was using moisturizer and it went crazy. Found out many bath and cosmetic products use formaldehyde (DMDM hydrogenate or whatever...different name but essentially formaldehyde)
Yes, it had an instruction set similar in feel to the PDP-11, using 16 general-purpose "registers" and about the same set of addressing modes, but you could change the base address in memory of the "register" set. (There was a BLWP instruction: branch and link with workspace pointer. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_Instruments_TMS9900#Inst...)
Then it's a no brainer. Start with your new employer, then apply to your friend's startup whenever they're ready. So you don't miss an opportunity with the big company. You can transfer your H1B as many times as you want as long as you have at least 6 months remaining on it. They will use premium processing, you can be done in 15 days. Then if you're into your first 3 years on your H1B, they will be able to extend it for 3 more years during the transfer.

So I hate C++. What I really want is the speed, flexibility, universality and simplicity of C. But I wish structs had destructors, and a way to bind namespaced related functions. Only since I basically now have classes, I should really think about adding inheritance. And I also find prototyping, testing and non-speed critical programming is a pain without a good generic container library. Containers can be implemented fairly elegantly with templates, but then I probably also need some compile-time processing ability. Oh crap, I just ended up at C++ again. And so I persist with C++ as my main language, with a constant voice in the back of my mind saying, "this is just stupid, there must be a better way. Why is there SO g-d* much accidental complexity in this language?". In my view, C++ has probably wasted more programmer hours, and added more sadness and despair to the world (at the very least MY world) than any other technology. But given my language wish list it's very, very hard not to be tempted to fire up c++-mode for just one more hit.
I'm smart enough to be a doctor but I really like what I do and don't want to go through residency.
Precisely. I kept waiting for a paragraph beginning: "and now, ten years into our marriage..."

AS15562 appears to be an employee of NTT out of the Netherlands. I can't tell if AS15562 is for personal or work, maybe both: http://bgp.he.net/AS15562

I couldn't care less about the IPv6 prefixes, but the IPv4 ones are all /24s made from 209.24.0.0/16, which is registered to NTT (AS2914). 209.24/16 is publicly announced (and has been for a very long time), and is routed through NTT Amsterdam routers.

I haven't looked at BGPlay to review all the data, but it looks like many of the /24s that make up that /16 were individually announced through AS15562, then later withdrawn, gradually over 4 months, to make said graph. I would hope this would be unused v4 space. That AS announced almost 98% of a /16 (probably 209.24/16): https://stat.ripe.net/AS15562#tabId=routing

Another user voiced their concerns, particularly if it was actively used: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14621859 -- there's no way any of us could know this; NTT would be authoritative, and jwhois -h rwhois.gtt.net.net -p 4321 209.24.0.0/16 doesn't give any clues.

While the antic made me smirk, it doesn't (publicly) "look good" when we're living in a world that lacks (or has greatly limited) v4 space. What this says is: "NTT has a /16 they're fooling around with publicly", even though it (presumably) is harmless.
The idea of the rule of law is arguably foundational; the actual legal system is not. More to the point, the rules that limit the government within the legal system are not foundational rules of society setting out limits on private interaction (they are, in some cases, foundational in that they express the ways in which government, including the legal system, is subordinated to the people rather than vice versa, but applying the rules of the legal system to private interaction inverts that foundational concept.)

Yeah I'm definitely looking for other ways to leverage my 3D skills so that my gamedev/UE4 knowledge doesn't all go to waste. I currently work as a sysadmin for an advertising agency, and while I'm doing a lot of Azure and Active Directory stuff for them right now, I'm thinking I might be able to branch them into VR/AR advertisements in the future.

I definitely made the mistake and learned my lesson with building Ethereal Legends - scope and speed are key elements. You have to keep it small and ship quickly. Allowing the project to grow beyond my ability made for poor results and long development cycles.
Windows sources have escaped before. I doubt that Windows is buildable outside of Microsoft (and the bits are definitely not signable, since you need access to a key vault for that).

Yes! The Digital Cinema standards support: 24, 25, 30, 48, 50, 60, and 120fps. The distribution channels exist for these frame rates, the challenge is finding a way to use them in a way that doesn't look displeasing.

Ang Lee shot Billy Lynn at 120fps and Sony Pictures had every intention to distribute it in 120fps. In fact they created a version at 24fps for legacy sites, 60fps as well as a 120fps version. At the last minute the studio pulled the 2 HFR versions and released only the 24fps version (note: not pulled for technical reasons) I've seen 20 minutes of the 120fps version and personally did not like the look.

It remains to be seen if James Cameron can utilize HFR in a manner that the general public finds appealing. He has stated that the Avatar features will utilize high framerates in some way.

This makes sense. Possibly the value of increased corporate sales of G Suite is worth more than the loss of the information gained from reading diminishing numbers of personal emails, as people turn more and more to social media and phone apps for personal communication.
My list is accurate as of a year or so ago, or at least they don't bounce back when you send an email to them.

> You do have protections against someone reading your email at Google.

And those protections are bullshit.

I have no guarantee that they are not reading my email. If a bot has access, a person has access, and people abuse their access all the time.

In fact, there have been cases of googlers reading peoples email. And I'm not blurring any line, I'm stating: Gmail can, has been, and will be abused. To pretend that is not the case is, frankly, naive.
This is only true if you insert at the head. And it's not really leading comma placement but the choice to put the first element in the line with the brace that is the culprit, though both are typical of comma-first.

Your mention of SEM made me think of using something like that to "draw" circuits or some similar method that would be horribly slow for mass production. Imagine if you could build a device that took a week or more to make something that's actually better than commercial offerings. It's a stretch, but hobbyists have options that are not available to big companies.

>Compressed, it is ~8TB.

But what data does this 8TB refer to specifically? Is this the source + all the windows builds from a plethora of sources? Did you download 8TB of data from BA and expand it to 32TB or was this a figure provided to you by one of the raided hackers or their associates?

>think the bigger issue is not the final size, but that internal Microsoft material - particularly source code - has escaped into public FTP

I don't think that comparable to 640k. Things you mention are are either what I define cherry on top (VR/AR meeting? Why? Teleworking is already present and completely doable on low bandwidth, mid latency - I'm doing it every day). VNC lag issues are mostly exactly what I mentioned. You already have enough bandwidth - it's the latency that affects you.

Besides, high detail remote desktop are a small, specialised segment, relatively speaking. If you're a developer, most of the time you work with text. If you're an office worker, most of the time you work with fairly static apps like office. Sure, you can't really work with remote blender at the moment, but we're getting into improvements for the long tail now - which is great. But once we're past 10mbps, improving latency will help more people than improving bandwidth.
One has to wonder who the customers this is setup to appease. If something is later found, corporate customers have litigation options - so more likely this is for nation-states.

The UNIVAC 1100 machines didn't put registers in memory; they just allowed programs to reference them via memory addresses. This removed the need for register-to-register instructions.

I recall seeing an article a long time ago where researchers made an OLED display with an inkjet printer. I'm sure the quality was low but it was displaying images. I always thought it would be cool to embrace that technique. Imagine printing signs that light up. I'm not sure what materials need to be used or what the issues are, but I want that.

I've been looking for information about Ulrich for these past few minutes trying to build a draft document and I'm starting to put together the reasons why Ulrich will not have a page soon...

Ulrich has accomplished so much as a programmer, more than nearly any programmer ever will. If we measured contributions objectively, he'd definitely be one of those "1% of programmers who produce 95% of software that is used by more than 1000 people". In fact, I just grepped for 'Ulrich Drepper' on my own personal computer and I've got pages-upon-pages of results (at least 2kloc) of bylines, commits, man pages and tiny thank you notes with only one recipient (Ulrich) deep in places you expect and then many you don't: the Android SDK, Coreutils, Wine project.

When you do a bit of research about him (of the variety Wikipedia would accept), there's a different story. There are no awards for Ulrich Drepper, there are no 'real' publications outside of open source that are describing what he does, there are no lively pieces of evidence that the world recognizes his contributions, there most certainly are no fanclubs.

What does emerge is a consistent message that the big players of free software wont tolerate him or his software (along with thousands of 'critiques' of his leadership style). Looking over this you see a pattern that emerges where an issue is brought up on a mailing list by people who are trying to help him or at the very least are neutral towards him and he cuts them down, insults them, belittles them for absolutely no reason whatsoever ("I have to let them know that they are dumb so they don't write software that hurts the world"). It's so comically obvious that he doesn't actually believe he's making "software" or "the world" any better while he's doing this.

I'm not sure why, but reading about Ulrich Drepper has put the broader world of software in perspective. I've never thought about the 'legitimacy' of Linus Torvald's (and others) management style. I have even been known to think that "asshole bosses get shit done". I had never seen what comes out for the projects that aren't Linux. The smaller & more mundane pieces of software whose petty tyrant isn't tolerated for long.

My initial feeling was that Ulrich Drepper deserves a Wikipedia page, but the evidence is that the deletionist might be right. Ulrich Drepper is not widely recognized because he has let his pride, his hubris and his attachment to criticism condemn him to a life of loneliness and anonymity with no indications that he wants either.

Mind sharing some of the tips/practices for those of us interested in keeping our OPSEC and PERSEC up to par?
Your understanding is mostly correct. Whether or not traffic directed to any of the /24s involved "would have eventually reached the destination" is undetermined (and possibly irrelevant), meaning it's both possible and not possible. We simply don't know. Speaking strictly about "internet routing" (BGP in this case), it is 100% possible for an announcement to send traffic through an AS which literally dumps it on the floor -- it's happened many times over the years (the Pakistan/Youtube one was noticed by many): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BGP_hijacking#Public_incidents

The question is whether or not the /16 (of which most of the advertised/withdrawn /24s make up) was used by actual devices, or if it's address space NTT has yet to use. If it is assigned to NTT but unused space, then effectively no harm done. If it's actually used IP space, then that would be very inappropriate.
See the left part of the graph? In the 1940's? It's lower than now and pretty dam close to the peak.
I know, plus its also being used as a term for coding tutorials in twitch. Kind of annoying.
The 68000 has a 16-bit bus but the 8088 is only 8 bit. I don't know about today, but RAM chips of the time supplied 1 bit per address, with the capacity being a square (since column and row are addressed using the same pins). So if you need twice as many bits per cycle, your options are basically to have twice as many chips (of a quarter the capacity each... probably cost-effective, but now your system has half the RAM), or twice as many chips (of the same capacity each... and now it's twice the cost).

Fitting twice as many chips on the board is probably a pain too. (And suppose you go for the 2 x quarter capacity option - now you need 4x as many if you want the same amount of RAM!)
Those people are pushing the tech to it's limits so providers can have solutions ready for when you want to hit those numbers too.

We should be grateful these early outliers exist and break things for us in advance.

I think Front End development is so insane because Front End dev is chained to the browser and javascript/css implementation by the browser makers. With web assembly, hopefully browser developers can separate from making languages and instead make language targets. Then the separately developed language can stay stable while its underlying implementation can adapt to the dumb browser madness. Then we can have some sanity in web development.
