Out of curiosity, if you notice a CPU bug in a computer under warranty, is there anything the vendor is usually obligated do, or are they under no obligation to do anything about a CPU bug? Is that considered a defect they have to handle?

(Edit: I'm assuming the USA, and I'm assuming bugs that were not known to the vendor at the time of the sale.)

I think the crucial mistake most commenters/assessors on HN are making is in somehow equating SV with engineer and social introvert types. Of course those people aren't going to sex parties!

But SV has over the years adopted the money-hungry, the investors and startup-flippers, as the core demographic by which it continues and grows. And these people are always in search of that next high. If that next high can be taboo and paid for with an exclusive amount of money, they'll be there.

SV is no longer defined by its engineers. We see this in the hypergrowth cycles, in the "you can't engineer yourself out of a societal problem" phenomenon, in the fact that you can't get anywhere in SV without getting on your knees in front of a VC board.
It doesn't spend it on 'other nations'.. it spends the money on US billionaires. 'Other Nations' is just a facade, as it's much easier to loose track of a few billions here and there in a god forsaken country, than it is in the middle of NY.
The military industrial complex costs a lost, but a BIG chunk of that money goes to US billionaires. The US population (aka military people) only get their wages paid, everything else is paid directly to Y and Z billionaire's tank/gun/warship/plane/drone/software/encrypted computer/add stuff to this list manufacturer.
And these manufacturers buy a lot of politicians' vote to keep the war machine going.

The party making the claim is using anecdotal evidence. They have no data. I do not think anecdotal evidence is good evidence for such a strong claim. This makes the claim an opinion and not factual. This is only my opinion.
Yes! GitLab support is on our roadmap.
Or you have Icelandic:

"A" is a distinct letter and distinct vowel.

"Á" is also a distinct letter and a distinct vowel, and not an "A" with an acute accent.

"À" exists in Icelandic in (very few) French loan-words and is not a distinct letter nor a distinct vowel, instead it's viewed as an "A" with a grave accent.

(And this is why lexical sorting has to be highly localized. I still think Turkish has the funniest gotcha where "I" and "i" aren't the upper/lower-case of the same letter, it's the uppercase of one letter, and the lowercase of a completely different letter.)
I'm confident that we won't need something like MobileCoin, which is based on secure hardware which you have to trust. I'm pretty sure someone will come up with some kind of combination of RaiBlocks and Monero, for example. Also, SpectreCoin might be onto something if they are able to implement stealth staking.

If you want more storage, an external HDD gives you all that without speed comprise.

HDD is now speed limited, its capacity has continue to grow but it is actually getting slower. By mid to late 2018 once all the NAND and DRAM Fab are online we should finally see the decline in pricing, and I expect 2019 we will see new history low of NAND and DRAM price / GB.

So the HDD market is now really left with external storage, and Server market.

The best protection against this kind of attacks is disable autofill in the browser and use a password manager, best if an offline one.

I always disabled autofill in every single browser since the dawn of the web because it looked like a bad idea and a potential source of troubles. Storing sensitive information in a piece of software which is directly exposed to the world and also letting everybody with access to my keyboard connect to every site as me? No, thanks.

Sometimes I fantasize about just greeting everybody I come across to add some friendliness to the world, until I realize that most people, in an urban setting, would probably be utterly bewildered and confused by such a behavior.

It's sad how urban living seems to have conditioned us to treat every other human as a total stranger from whom we should keep the furthest possible distance, physically and emotionally.

I don't know about mapzen, never used their tools. But a common first way to use OSM data is to use osm2pgsql to import the data into PostgreSQL. Yes, on beefy hardware, it can take ~24 hours to import the whole OSM database file for the whole world.

One beauty of OSM is that lots of the software can, and does, work for region based extracts, and doesn't require the whole world. You can render tiles, do geocoding, or routing on a per country, or continent basis, depending on what you want. Mapzen provided "metroextract", but Geofabrik (my employer) provides continent/country/state extracts on https://download.geofabrik.de You can also cut out your own extracts with osmosis, or osmium-tool, based on the planet/continent/country/state region covering your area of interest.
> Competition pressure could make a company's new product worse than (in this case, less stable than) their previous products

Well, that depends on the specific attributes on which there is competitive pressure. When its on time to market, yes, quality will suffer. When its on quality, products will be slower\more expensive,etc. Kind of similar to the often repeated quality triangle in Software dev
that is actually an odd list, which places restrict the ability to hire french or swedish people?
Unfortunately, no-one seems to know how to do it. It is a pretty hard problem: issuance tied to proof of work works because the solutions it generates are unique but machine verifiable. Unfortunately, problems with solutions that fulfill that requirement tend not to be very useful in and of themselves.

Edit: this is well beyond my expertise, perhaps someone with a better understanding of information theory can prove the above statement wrong. In that case, I hope they go out and build a crypto of their own!
India's approach is line with their needs: the vast majority of their population need cheaper access to common life-saving drugs that you and I take for granted: once a significantly large number of their population "levels-up" in terms of wealth, education, and health, the research will follow.

I wonder how this works as they've been available on Spotify for as long as I can recall. I assume they will have to show they requested discussion on the licensing long before taking extraordinary measures such as this.

Wixen allegedly represent Neil Young who is founder of a now defunct (I believe) digital music distribution service called Pono^ focused around lossless encoding.

To quote Neil himself (as CEO) when he had to shut the service down by Apple acquiring their store partner=. he said:

I had to put up with lots of criticism for the high cost of music
delivered in the way all music should be provided, at full
resolution and not hollowed out. I had no control over the pricing,
but I was the one that felt the criticism, because I was the face
of it. And I pretty much agreed with the criticism. Music should
not be priced this way.

Basically he was squeezed by licensers to pay more because he had a higher fidelity product:

Record companies believe they should charge a premium for high res
recordings and conversely, I believe all music should cost the
same, regardless of the technology used.

I think they just wanted him to not cloud much much bigger deals and gave him the cold shoulder.

Young is one of the most productive workers in the history of music and clearly a dedicated, business minded chap. I'd have a hard time believing he isn't involved in this in some way or perhaps the death of their client Tom Petty has liberated their ability to pursue anti consumer legal avenues for short term revenue generation.

I dont know the ground reality, however as per documentation for SDE jobs paying above 50k EUR or so you get it with a labour market check alone. While in US, you also have a 20 to infinite year waitlist for getting a green card (Indians, EB3).

Of course, this depends on workload — gaming will see different results than computationally heavy tasks.

It is likely that games using Vulkan, DX12 or OoenGL's AZDO functions will see much lower performance impact (because they usually only do a handful of syscalls per frame) than games using older APIs, or even OpenGLs immediate mode (which does one syscall per emitted vertex, in worst case)
Looks like you had so much to say about billionaires that you didn't have time to read the headline.

It doesn't say anything about spending on other nations. The U.S. spends more on health care of its own citizens than other nations do. The system is clearly not very efficient, at least in terms of what it offers to poorer citizens, although at the top end, results are excellent and the U.S. still is in the front lines in research and technological progress of medicine.
Google provides a mechanism for copyright owners to claim those videos and either get advertising rights to them or remove them.
I can confirm all of what you said.
That's the reason application servers AND big monolithic applications NEED to die and they need to die right now.
Just have clear defined boundaries for services, deploy them inside a docker/rkt whatever container; just let whatever legacy application run with java 1.4 until you replace it completely.
> Almost every popular language launches an exception when you do a divide by zero.

1.) Divide by zero returns Inf, not NaN.

2.) I just tried C++, Java, C#, Go[1], and the champion of safety: Rust. All of them evaluate to Infinity when dividing a double by 0.0. No exceptions to be found.

> Try it, I'd like to see the results. I'm not too familiar with the processor implementation, but something tells me that if every system level language implements exceptions for division by zero then the cost must be minimal.

But they don't. Not every system level language even has exceptions and the ones that do return Inf as stated above.

> At most it's just one instruction.

Branches can be expensive if the branch predictor chooses the wrong path and forces a pipeline flush. Should be able to work with the predictor so that happy paths are true and that should make it less likely, but I'm not an expert there.

> The only place a division by zero operation can legally occur is if the zero arrives via IO. In that case it's better to sanitize the input or detect the zero rather than catch an exception.

In many applications this is true. Not all.

[1]: You do need to make sure Go treats both operands as doubles, easiest way to be sure is to declare x and y as float64 and then divide them afterward. But when actually dividing a float64 by another float64, it does evaluate to Inf as well.
You can clear some rights through GEMA, but certainly not all.

First, I do not think we have textbook definition of "drone" as such words change meaning based on what technologies are actually available, but quite a lot of technical terms come from or are inspired by science fiction. While I did not read lots of science fiction and most of that was not in English, I think "drone" for a long time used to mean something like "mobile robot capable of autonomously performing a series of tasks", mostly in contexts of mining, cargo transportation and reconnaissance.

Airborne association with drones is quite a recent thing with rise of "military drones" (mostly recon) and subsequently manufacturers of RC multirotors using a word distancing their products from RC toys. RC multirotors are drones only in the sense that they maintain altitude and orientation autonomously.
Unlikely. It's relatively easy to get to the point where syscalls aren't the bottleneck by a long margin, so the only apps where syscalls are the bottleneck will be those that haven't put in any optimisation effort.
Fourth downside: there are exceptions but most of the US educated foreign students who go back home tend to have a good opinion of the US and also tend to make a good career at home. This is a very powerful form of soft power.

well, if you're determined to write stupid tests you can do it at any level. And that is not enough info to start debugging unless you had the machine in a known and reproducible state to begin with, which is where we get back to writing focused reproducible tests.
Sorry for that, but I don't think dementia is caused that way (although the claim is usable as a hyperbole in conversation).
There's no way this is true. I cut my teeth on Microsoft QuickBasic, and I promise you that QuickBasic has been far from my mind for many years. At this point, I've written programs in about 50 different languages (not all of them professionally): procedural, object-oriented, applicative, concatenative, relational; different paradigms require different "modes of reasoning" to properly wield.

To extend your translation analogy, it's rather like learning a natural language in that at first you might think in your native tongue and translate on-the-fly, but to become fluent you must really internalize the new language and learn to "switch" your thoughts into it. I feel like the linguistic concepts of "registers" and "code switching" apply well to formal languages as well as natural ones.
I don't see the reason to hate that definition. It feels spot-on.

The defining characteristic of a startup - as the word is used in the real world - is being unprofitable and funded by investors. That literally means one doesn't have control over their company, because they've sold ownership to investors.

What you have is a sustainable, bootstrapped small business. It may not sound sexy, as 'dfcowell points out, but IMO, it should - it suggests that the company is actually doing something useful, unlike many startups, which exist only as long as they can keep the growth up to solicit more investments.
My Go way is similar but I don't maintain such artifact repository things. I directly fork the dependency project on github (or elsewhere), then change the dependency path from something like "others.com/projects/foo" to "github.com/myaccount/foo".

But the fork will only be made if I have confirmed the fork is worthy to make. Before the potential fork, I temporarily modify the code in the local clone of "others.com/projects/foo" directly. If I find my modifications are useless, I will revert the modifications so no forks will be made.

Other processes are like what you described.

Yes, there is still not a perfect dependency management tool in Go world, but there is one official dependency management tool in developing, which will be released alongside with Go 1.10.
Wixen are pretty notorious for acting like this, they don't need Neil Young to be pulling the strings.
If the employee is competent, they're more likely to leave in private business too. Often exactly because companies tend to be really bad at offering raises and promotions relative to offering market rates for new hires.

It's not a given that this is better (or worse) in private companies than government overall.
Intel CPU Bug Causes Kernel Memory Vulnerability
Picnic - Amsterdam, Netherlands | ONSITE | VISA sponsorship | https://join.picnic.nl/

Picnic is the world’s fastest growing online supermarket with a simple mission: to make grocery shopping quick, easy and affordable for everyone. Our unique tech-driven approach enables us to work towards a greener and more sustainable future, with our fleet of 100% electric vehicles delivering fresh products from our warehouse to customers daily.

Picnic is growing fast. We're a tech-first venture, where you ship code that either gets used by thousands of customers (and growing fast!) or runs our supply chain and is used by our hundreds of warehouse employees, where efficiency is key. Few places offer the chance to impact (good and bad!) so much with the code you make.

Extra fun parts: we're a grocery story at the core, with total ownership of the supply chain. That means we have cool things like our own electric delivery trucks that you can drive. We also have warehouses which operate on the code you write, so you can go see how it affects the whole company right on the work floor.

We're hiring for many developer and business positions. Checkout the hiring page linked above.

I highly recommend anyone in or wanting to move to Amsterdam to check us out.
