Call me old-style, but I still use the traditional white silicone based thermal paste. It might not be the best product where top efficiency is desired, but it won't deteriorate over time: I've removed TO3 transistors from 30+ years old equipment and their white thermal paste was still soft to the touch. Some of the silver/gold ones I tried in the past with CPUS (before going back to the old one) would become solid and deteriorate in a couple years max.

Could it be you were hanging on #css on irc on a network I can't remember more than 10 years ago ? (there usually were only 5 of us there). I seem to remember someone owning a domain like that.
Surprised the more common .localdomain is omitted as a domain rather than having a .localhost domain.
Re: #2 - you are also far more malleabele in your 20s.

Perfect matches are perfect because people change, yield and adjust to each other's quirks. The older you are the less flex there is. It's really quite simple.

This also related to #1 - a prerequisite for making a good match is the willigness to change. However a large pool of choices entices one to search a bit more for a match that requires less change, making it hard/er to try and commit to what might be already in place.

Safari is the only browser that has TCO so far. V8 has it listed as a blocking bug:

https://bugs.chromium.org/p/v8/issues/detail?id=4698

Unless I'm reading that wrong, TCO was pulled as even invokable by a harmony flag because it was so broken to be a security risk.

I wonder if there are any explanations other than focus or priorities as to why it appears to be harder to implement in Chrome than it was in Safari/webkit.

Anyway, since it's not in V8 that means it's not in node right?
hey, spare me the faux "logically objective" pose, little guy. I'm the only one that can be taken seriously here.
To put it in terms that might be more familiar around here, obsessing over finding the right partner is like believing that a successful startup is mostly about finding the right idea. (And from there, it will just work out on its own...) Sure, some ideas are more likely to work out a priori, but your success is going to be dramatically influenced by the amount of work you're willing to put into it, your willingness to learn, change, and grow along the way. I'm inclined to believe that there are tons of people with whom most of us could be compatible, and each would open onto a different future and a different version of you. If you want a long-term partner, choose someone who feels promising, bring all you've got--intellect, emotions, empathy, humility--to the relationship, and stick with it.
Does this really have to be explained?

Persumably you want to get married because you want to share your life with somebody else. If you don't start sharing until you're 40, you've already missed the opportunity to share what are almost certainly the most transformative and significant years of your life. Of course this doesn't mean a later marriage can't be happy and successful too... but it does involve missing out on things that some people care a lot about.
The history of "innovative" renewable energy development ideas of this general type over the last 15 or so years. Wind energy is my field, and I pay close attention to these ideas because I find them interesting. It's also why I'm so negative at this point: exactly zero of the ideas I've looked at have become commercial, and very few are still in active research. Most have quietly died.

I'm not remotely disagreeing with the general need for research and development. But I am firmly of the opinion that it should be research and development, not something planned to go from concept to commercial with an aggressive timeline like this.
Makes sense. I am definitely excited to see something that even vaguely approaches practicality, even if it's a long way from megaflop territory.
Heh.. doing something like this used to be my full-time job. I'd have to fix bugs of old developers. What I got paid and what I should've gotten paid is probably why I am no longer working there.
what i see in rural alberta still looks like most farm fields (i.e. each quarter section) are separated by a line of trees, bushes, or at the very least roads or irrigation ditches. windbreaks are no less important to agriculture now than they were 100 years ago.
> How is it then, that we're seeing so much centralization in the industry?

First, because the goal of corporations is to maximize profits, not to maximize people's well being. The point of socialist government (and more generally of "correct" economic decisions) is supposed to be to maximize people's well being. For example, Google is a large corporation because of economies of scale in leveraging search and other apps to capture ad revenue. It makes no profit from serving its users' needs, except indirectly. Similar remarks apply to Facebook and other tech giants.

Second, because centralization in industry is actually dependent, to a large extent, on centralization in government. Large corporations have all kinds of advantages that have nothing to do with serving customers well, and a lot to do with being able to successfully lobby lawmakers and regulators to their advantage. The tech industry is young enough that this process hasn't gone as far as it has in, for example, the US defense industry, where all of the large corporations exist only because they have optimized themselves for getting government contracts.

In other words, large corporations don't have any magical way of getting around the information problem I described, any more than large governments do. They just latch on to a source of profits that doesn't require them to actually aggregate all that information at all.
Yeah, I have noticed it appears in some of the PC enthusiast materials, I wonder why it has not received more widespread industrial acceptance. Obviously it is very abrasive, but I think tiny synthetic diamonds aren't that expensive. Maybe it's so far down the scale of diminishing returns to not be worth it?
To me, the postulate does make sense:

This was a very insightful read for me, where I introspected and identified a lot of things I had done wrong myself in relationships. That said, it was also kind of depressing. It seems that one of the greatest unsolved challenges of life is efficient matchmaking, and despite all the technology poured into it we are nowhere close to having a good solution.

Swipe-apps (latest generation of matchmaking) are completely shallow and almost entirely based on appearance and no other factors which leads them to be used for either hookups or entertainment.

Profile-based apps lead to box-checking behaviors, incentivizing people to look for "scan-tron partners" as the article calls its.

Personalized matchmaking services are expensive, time-consuming, and are limited to the pool of people willing to invest that amount of time and spend that amount of money, which is not that many folks.

This is one problem area I'd love to see some new startups address in a serious manner.
Sure, you can use the bank. Internally, the bank could do this on the chain though and give you all those protections, so you don't even need to do know the details
The more this strategy is automated, the more effective it becomes. This is a simple explanation for "trends", as people see liquidity consumption and enter on the side to further consume it - more people repeat the pattern. The net result is a "trend", which is a blunt way of saying "demand exceeded supply in <x> direction".

There is no sane way to automate this, since everyone's description of "enough" volume delta is different. Perhaps I open positions at a CD imbalance of 15%, bank of america waits on 19%, and chase at 25%. My actions at 15% further the delta, causing bank of america's 19% threshold to fire, which in turn increases the delta to 25% causing chase's threshold to fire. Until every day trader "gets on the same page" so to speak, this will not be automated. And...if they ever do get on the same page, then it only takes 1 person with decent equity to take the other automated strategies to the cleaners.

tldr; This will be automated away when greed no longer exists, i.e. never.

question for people who use airbnb: If you've had a good experience with a host and you're going back to the area would you bother booking through Airbnb or just contact the host directly?
For sure. I was just trying to explain why the "corporate effect on mental well being" is not comparable to the effect that sex work has on sex workers (which is closer to PTSD in the military).

The only way I can understand the downvotes to my comment is the missing /s on the first line; I somehow completely failed to communicate that, it seems.

Per hour probably isn't a good comparison. Developer per-hour is usually for a medium-large company that wants you for full-time hours and takes care of all risk and overhead for you. Sex worker per-hour is for a client who only wants a hour or whatever, and the worker takes basically all of the risk and overhead as far as rent/hotel rate, travel, supplies, advertising, etc.

Maybe a little more similar to a software consultant who has to spend a ton of extra time drumming up clients and setting up engagements and pays for their travel and any hotel fees out of their rate.
This is a great point. I would recommend this video by the school of life: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jltM5qYn25w. It basically delves a little into why our ideas or romance and love are perhaps not the best way to look at these things.

Most marriages result in children. Most people want to have children. It's not an unreasonable assumption to make that most people who read the article will fall into that camp.
It is interesting how the grandchild responses to the responses to this post have been flag killed...
Another way to think about it is this. How many American soldiers would be killed in the invasion? The American soldiers who would invade are every bit as innocent as the women and children killed in the A-bomb attacks. Estimates are that Around 500,000 American soldiers would be killed or seriously wounded in an invasion. Every American soldier was an innocent man, defending his country from the Japanese who brutally attacked st Pearl Harbor. Do the lives of these innocent men not matter to you? This perfectly demonstrates what's so screwed up about liberals in America. They would literally rather send many more of their own countrymen to get their arms and legs blown off and killed, rather than kill the enemy. It's sickening, awful and evil how they would gladly sacrifice more of their own innocent fellow Americans to save the wives and children of attackers. Send 500k Americans to get murdered by the japanese, plus their dead, or kill 250k with the a bomb.

The choice is clear once you have the facts. Of course maybe you don't think it matters if American soldiers die. Maybe you think it's better that they die than the enemy. Try telling that to the wife of a soldier lost in battle. Try explaining that to a kid who wonders where his dad is. "The Japanese who attacked us at Pearl Harbor and want to kill us are more important to keep alive than your daddy".

You see think pictures of the a bomb with horror. And rightly so. But you forget the horrors of Okinawa. The terror of Kamikaze pilots literally suicide bombing the Americans.

The a bomb was not only better from a military and casualty standpoint, it was better for Japan in the long run. It completely broke the back of their military empire in a way that not even an invasion could. It was complete and utter defeat that crushed their delusions that they would gain greatness through military strength. That enabled them to move on and rebuild focusing on the right thing, economic power
The odd-ordered subspace is a subspace, not a subalgebra, because multiplication is not closed.
To re-examine why you rejected them, and see if other candidates were rejected for similar reasons or not. There are several studies that show that women and minorities are simply judged harsher than their peers despite having similar levels of talent and ability[1]. Examine if perhaps you fell into that trap. Obviously if someone couldn't do fizzbuzz, they shouldn't be hired. But I would wager that in many cases, there are those candidates that are very close, and they end up getting picked or rejected based on these unconscious factors.

And, also, to look at why diverse candidates are not applying to work at your company is decent numbers.

Satoshi's original posts to the cryptography mailing list, and its members' responses are also of tremendous value. The chain starts at: http://www.metzdowd.com/pipermail/cryptography/2008-October/...
I was thinking the classic case of a 2D array representing the maze: value of 1 for walls, 0 for space, 2 is the goal. Recursion of it is simple:

Function Solve(x,y,dir) {

Solved = false

If (maze[x,y] == 2) {
Print "goal at "+x+","+y
Return true
}

If ((dir != 3) && (maze[x,y-1] != 1)) { solved = Solve(x,y-1,1) }
If ((!solved) && (dir != 4) && (maze[x+1,y] != 1)) { solved = Solve(x+1,y,2) }
If ((!solved) && (dir != 1) && (maze[x,y+1] != 1)) { solved = Solve(x,y+1,3) }
If ((!solved) && (dir != 2) && (maze[x-1,y] != 1)) { solved = Solve(x-1,y,4) }
If (solved) {
Print "path "+x+","+y
}
Return solved

}

The pseudocode will search the maze, find the exit, then print its location followed by the path to get there in reverse order. Nothing complicated, but shows off the statefulness of recursion without needing anything else.
If you want tough choices, ask Japanese to choose between living as they are now (with atomic bombing in the past) or Japan living as a North Korea (but without atomic bombing).

Definitely, I think your 2nd paragraph is the thing most everyone is missing. He basically says exactly this in the memo.
This is increasingly my concern-- There really seems to be a prevailing opinion that racism and sexism are just fine when directed towards white men. You can drag a white guy for pretty much any societal ill you like on the internet these days, and while there are some pretty great points to be made with respect to blaming a lot of modern society's problems on its principal architects (old white dudes), this is no way to win hearts and minds.

We're currently suffering through four years of self-imposed punishment as a result of being a bunch of judgmental assholes in pursuit of a goal that any reasonable human would accept as self-evident-- that people deserve to be treated fairly and without prejudice, no matter their race, sex, gender identity, et cetera. That the American Dream is available equally to all Americans.

I spend a lot of time offering feedback to people in a professional capacity and I am frankly shocked at the level of discourse I see on the internet from progressives. If I pulled this kind of shit at work I'd be finished, because I don't see any way I could possibly be effective communicating an idea to anybody in this fashion.

Almost as if the media doesn't really give a shit about justice or equality, but rather generating rage-clicks and internet lynch mobs to move advertising inventory. :-\

No matter what side of this debate you're on, I don't think you can argue against the notion that there is only one side of it whose adherents can feel completely free to express their opinions or argue their case without fear of retaliation. Many stupid, unsupportable statements have been made by people on the left side, but I've yet to see much in the way of internet rage mobs formed against them.

I think if google tries to punish the manifesto's author, there needs to be a massive backlash. Perhaps a grassroots effort to lobby the federal government to bust them up as a monopoly. It doesn't matter what, just cause them pain and suffering through whatever legal means are available.

Suppose, for example, once Yonatan Zunger's current employer becomes public knowledge, that company was inundated with phone calls and nasty tweets until they decide that keeping on the payroll is not worth the trouble. Would that be fair? I don't think so, but it would no different than if the manifesto author is outed and fired for expressing his opinions.
If such a repository existed ... it would simply be dismissed as biased by whatever side of the argument it "debunked" ;)
I didn't completely grok the white paper you linked. Is it basically suggesting that we remove the capability for arbitrary recursion and limit it to a set of recursive primitives (folds, filters, zips, etc)? And the motivation for this is comes from the idea that arbitrary recursion is as dangerous as go tos?

I remember in college that I took some examples of recursive functions, hand-wrote the call stacks, and spent hours and hours pacing in a study room, thinking about it, until the patterns started to feel natural.

I did that kind of thing more than once, just working through algorithms in my head, I guess learning to trust that it'll work, as long as there's a path from the allowed arguments down to the base case. For me, it was never something that reading a few words could clarify.
I guess the build chain for complex international products (cars, smartphones) spans multiple currencies. Maybe it becomes worthwhile for Samsung, Toyota or BMW to use Bitcoins instead. Now it makes sense for them to do some mining just to secure the blockchain. The primary goal would be security not profit.

>> It seems clear to me that the manifesto author "raises into question the fundamental capability of every woman he works with".

> Could you quote the part of the manifesto that says so / gave this impression.

I did. The parts in quotes above are directly from the manifesto. He lists differences between sexes and claims one gender has "lower stress tolerance". That's a gross generalization that doesn't account for a lot of perception factors which I outlined in an above comment. He also prefaces that section by saying "these differences may explain why we don’t see equal representation of women in tech".

> As far as I can see the author is arguing average aptitudes in populations and consequent percentual representation of men and women not being 50/50. Not aptititudes of individuals

The author makes the claim that one sex's ineptitude in a modern role is, on average, rooted in biology. That's not supported by science.
