I will say I'm perfectly happy with the PPI on Apple devices. If I seemed to be condoning the people chasing numbers to increase sales, that wasn't my intention.

I do joke though that some day Apple will introduce iGlasses, which will be AR glasses with electronically adjustable refractive indexes. When it detects a smartphone in front of your field of view it will zoom in 2x and do image stabilization so you can see your 500 ppi screen.

Definitely a technical thing... but I agree using a tiling windows manager has brought new and improved changes to my work flow as a developer. The thing no one ever talks about is you must also have a standard (gnome, kde, etc) windows manager handy to use at a moments notice because there are things that will be hidden in a tiling manager and you won't know they are gone if it is the first time running a program. Setting up a VPN, doing heavy duty network config, and system administration I would advocate are better suited trying for the first time without a tiling manager. After the steps have been mastered and the command are known is when i3wm really shines. I'm sure there are many counterpoints speaking to how easy it is to use i3wm to configure XYZ but after years of using it I am drawn to launching new programs without it to get a feel for them until I learn the requisite commands and switch over to i3wm.

Obviously FPGA is not as slick & fast as a memristor chip could maybe be, but if the economics of a morphic processor made sense wouldn't you expect to see FPGA coprocessors and a library of utility bitstreams to be dynamically loaded as needed?

Of course, the reason we don't see that is the economics aren't great, the performance boost isn't either, and developing those utility bitstreams is a herculean task by itself.

The real world incarnation of all this I would argue is the SoC. Silicon is cheap enough you don't make one mighty morphic chip; you make several dedicated IP's and put them all on one chip.

The problem more broady is economic incentive.

There are free rider issue that we all share the rights we currently have, so no one wants to pay to keep these rights.

Then there is profit incentive, there is none, either in keeping our rights or increasing them.

Corporate entities however have both these incentives.

Instead of non profit agencies, a better structure would be a corporation profiting from the freedoms people desire, purchase equity in the company and have a board that finds profit incentive in various freedoms and rights.

Philosophically this is libertarism or anarcho-capitalism.

Removing dynamic pins was inevitable given the associated risk for all sites. Some ideas to fix those exist[1], but I'm not sure it's worth the effort in a fully CT-enforced web. That's probably time better spent somewhere else (such as improving CT itself and the gossip mechanism.)

I'm not convinced that static pins need to go too. There are something like 10 sites on that list currently, and all of them are valuable targets and should have the resources to ensure their pins don't fail. Even increasing that number to something like 100 should be manageable for browser vendors and would cover a large percentage of all page views (rather than just guarantee discovery after the fact).

Thanks very much for the correction! Removing my foot from my mouth, now.

That's incredibly interesting, especially the idea that it could be used to emulate neurons. I expect that it'd be hard to fabricate them with a very high branching factor, but as I've amply demonstrated, I know very little about this topic.
They aren't 100% determinative, of course. But by and large, many companies do place a great deal of emphasis on ones performance on these tests (perhaps being only partly conscious of the extent to which they're doing so).
It currently doesn't come with pre-compiled binaries that would allow you to develop/release a game on each platform without touching a C++ compiler.. but that certainly is a possibility. For now there is just a Windows exe included.
You can do that with TDD (it's called outside-in), although I agree that it is time consuming and challenging, especially without the right tools.
why not provide an advanced feature that alerts you any time a cert changes, similar to what we get with SSH?

> What would be the fix? I'm asking sincerely as someone who is only surface level familiar with HPKP, and have never implemented it (but my boss did...)

The fix would be to embed the expected key fingerprint in DNS and have the browser issue either a 2nd request for it or have the DNS server return it as additional data just like when requesting a CNAME record and it returns the A record too. Then, to prevent DNS MITM attacks, have the whole zone and the domain's zonefile signed.

On the other hand, given that DNS is UDP, this opens up the possibility of an MITM attacker simply suppressing the 2nd request for the HTTPS key, or corp firewalls/MITM boxes/crappy provider DNS servers simply filtering out the responses...

> They just happen in smaller numbers compared to men.

Black people just happened to perfect slaves, unsuited to life as free people. [1] Women just happened not to want the vote. [2] Those were dumb arguments then, and it's a dumb argument now. Things don't just happen; they happen for reasons. And given our multi-millennial history of male dominance over women, these reasons are often historical.

You can dress it up however you like, but your vigorous defense of the historically biased status quo is inevitably sexist in result. Any woman seeing this is going to immediately have to prepare to be treated like this: https://xkcd.com/385/

If you really care about helping women into STEM careers, you'll learn some history and stop talking like this. Given the number of anonymous dudes who spend their time arguing against fixing historical sexism who also claim to be super-dedicated to helping women, you can probably work out what I think you'll actually do.

Let's just say we're lucky Bitcoin wasn't built with an image renderer from the very beginning.

But that's also an answer to your question. It's easy to imagine if Bitcoin were. So let's say it was. What do you do now that Bitcoin is $6k?

(It's easy to argue that Bitcoin may not have attained $6k if it embedded an image renderer. But I think a future service will attain the same importance.)

We have a lot of citizen involvement. You see it in these kind of local activities and overrides, but it goes to the state level ballot initiatives as well.

Sadly, there are some inroads against it. In a rare show of bipartisanship, both the Republican and Democratic parties supported this 'Raise the Bar' initiative to make it more difficult to add initiatives to the state ballot. It doesn't remove the right, but it requires a lot more organization by requiring 2% voter signatures from each state district within a 60 day collection window.

It sucks, but I'm not too distraught. A little more authority was ceded to the political parties but I still have faith that the citizenry are active and involved. We don't all believe the same thing (it's a swing state), but at least we act.

What I absolutely love is the freedom to be independent. As an independent voter, I can vote in the primary for any of the political parties, as long as I only vote once. I don't need to pre-register for that party to be eligible. There are a lot of other improvements to the electoral process we could potentially make, but I'm glad we at least pulled down this low hanging fruit as a first step.
ObjC is a completely backwards-compatible superset of C that bolts a Smalltalk-like syntax on top. The first implementation was a preprocessor that emitted C, as far as I remember, until first-class compiler support arrived (GCC and Clang have native support).
While that may be true, the causal link between government spending and high prices is unclear. The vast majority of waste I see getting healthcare myself is the absolutely massive cost of dealing with insurance itself. This is an industry (billing!) that employs vast numbers of people. I think it’s much more likely the high costs are an effect of ludicrously poor price transparency and the unsustainable healthcare practices that this sustains. At worst, government regulation exacerbates this; I think you’d be hard pressed to demonstrate it’s the primary cause.

Either way, we need price transparency before people start acting rationally, and government regulation of irrational spending is going to be wasteful. Price transparency would make the promise of single payer (government) healthcare actually sustainable for a populace; without it, you’re just making the healthcare industry richer without actually providing a proportionate amount of care to the public.
> I tend to look for developers now that have a better sense of modeling and api design.

In the same vein: why are algorithms preferred over discussing data structures? Knowing a lot of data structures, when to use them and how to combine them is probably much more broadly applicable than knowing a lot of algorithms.
It wasn't until I had some extended dental work and had to wait around a dental surgery for half a day that I realised just how useful a good memory is for health practitioners.

Of course they have notes. But it's so much easier and more reassuring to remember key facts about patients beyond the immediate medical issues.

It's also easy to forget they see a lot of patients - every day.

So being able to remember names, relationships, interests and prior sessions with hundreds of patients - all the social glue that makes non-trivial reassuring smalltalk possible - is a hugely useful skill.

A transaction is rather fast on the Ethereum blockchain. I've had reddit posts that took longer to settle than Ethereum transactions.

Ethereum is also not in a finished state. Scaling options haven't been fully explored yet. The move to PoS alone should decrease block times.

Historically, discussions were done in Usenet on much longer timespans, so this shouldn't prevent using it for real discussions.

> So artists are wonderful, interesting people, and professionals are boring and unappealing? Wow.

Well, this fine article is partly about Richard Florida, and that's basically what he's saying: keep the creative class around, because they are the ones that add value to a city. Boring professionals flock to neighborhoods put on the map because creative people making them destinations.

In Denver, see the River North neighborhood. What once was a very vibrant place to see DIY shows, gallerys, etc, is now just a brewery neighborhood. Some underground venues were closed by the city and the one-year anniversary of this is coming up. The city shows no interest in providing an alternative. I guess this isn't very important to most, but these spaces were a safe place for many people to go: homeless teenagers, trans-folk, etc.

> more rigorously enforced at compile time

'Compile time', like everything in the artificial science of computing, is a made up thing. We might reconsider if it's a useful idea to keep. Why must there be a specific point in time, when we verify interconnections within a little bundle of code, but later when the bundle of code integrates with a larger system we are completely fine with very different, loosely coupled connections?

The internet is dynamically typed. I just don't see static verification scaling to that level. But verification is still great - so maybe we need a way to verify connections between components as and when they bind. If we build a good model for this late bound 'negotiated safe' binding, the static model might become unnecessary (because you can do the verification whenever you choose, or at multiple times and different scales, as the 'bundle of code' integrates with larger and larger systems.)
