Not to disagree with you, but aren't cryptocurrencies also working towards this same goal? I mean, what do you think would happen when you have a secret way to hide your wealth in such a way that nobody can tie it to your name? In fact, isn't that the point of cryptocurrencies?

I'm just trying to figure out, what you think cryptocurrencies are for, if not, for individuals to have a means of cash (and/or wealth storage) decoupled from the state.
Now you know how people in AI outside of deep learning feel :)
The $50,800/gram figure seems to be based on the total cost of the entire Apollo project - $50,800 * 382 kilograms of material returned = $19,405,600,000, which is about 4/5 of the total Apollo programme cost listed on Wikipedia.

That seems a little unrealistic to me, because the goal of Apollo was not "bring 382 kilograms of moon rocks back at the lowest possible cost", or anything close to it.

Obviously there are some big hurdles to overcome, but I don't think they're as enormous as "reduce cost by a factor of well over 1,000".

I'm sure that's true, and we might have changed the URL at the time if we'd known about it.
That's basically it. All of the digital broadcast streams (over the air, cable, satellite) use a fixed bitrate per physical channel, and send an mpeg transport stream. A transport stream is built of fixed length packets. Within the transport stream you can multiplex different programs. OTA gets 20Mbps per channel, if you use that for one program, it's likely you may not use the whole thing, so you include null packets as needed to fill the stream. If you send multiple programs, you probably will fill the stream, so you have to reduce quality and/or play games with timing of i-frames and possibly adjusting program start times or commercial break lengths to avoid having multiple programs needing high bitrate at the same time.
1. Realizing how life short is, how precious it is, and how much you don't want your life to have been about causing other people pain.

2. Realizing that everyone is doing their best, because no one chooses their genetics or environment. No one is trying to be bad at life, and no one is ultimately responsible for being good at life. Everyone is just doing the best with the hand they were dealt. Being incredibly understanding and forgiving of peoples' faults is the only logical thing to do.

The difficulty is keeping this in the center of your mind while your brain experiences real world stressors (see #2).

Are you using a Ubiquiti router for this by any chance? Would love to hear more details as I have been thinking about implementing something like this on an EdgeRouter Lite.
A rollback followed by a replay of desired transactions is still a rollback. This is how you can tell if an attempt to refute-by-redefinition is denial: first determine why it would be unfortunate if the predicate being refuted were true, and then ask if the redefinition actually fixes the problem.

Your analogy is very leaky. Bidding and delivery is one and done, whereas in the dynamics of workplaces, employers have vast influence on the workplace conditions daily. Also applicants rarely get full insight when applying - this is true of piano bidding ("I wonder what it will be like to deal with this person") but that represents a small one-time exchange.
Amazon markets itself as a futuristic company that is making people's lives better.

A coal mine sure doesn't, and it's not as surprising to find out they run off the blood of the miners.

For most of us, it's a big change in thinking to look at the Amazon website as an interface to exploitation & human misery.
In Germany there is a push for 6-hour workdays, yet on the other side of the Atlantic the trends seem to be opposite. Hey human, the only reason for your existence is to work! Now stop thinking about it, work yourself to death, so that VCs can scrap more money off you. You know, that Lambo my daugther destroyed after 2 days costs something!

Seriously, you see workers dying at work in China weekly from exhaustion; due to their cultural and political repression they have to stick with it; now what does that say about people in the West calling for the same?
It gives the store a scruffy, downmarket image. Also, it removes convenience. If I cannot get all the items on my list at a single store, then I will immediately stop going to that store...likely to never return.

Companies have been trying to reinvent the grocery store for decades now. What can be done has already been done, and now they are trying to alter the way their customers shop. Guess what! That doesn't work.

This experiment will end badly for WF.
Some things are not offered by the CLI where GUIs can provide value-add, e.g. audio + video bitrate calculations for 2pass encoding targeting particular file sizes, stream selection dropdowns when you want to burn in one of several subtitle tracks etc.

Consider WebM4Retards[0]. It provides a simple UI for some avisynth filters + ffmpeg while also allowing you to export the avs scripts and ffmpeg command line if you want to run them manually. It fills a particular niche between simple transcoding/muxing and non-linear video editors plus encoding pipelines.

Additionally GUIs can help with tasks that you execute infrequently enough that you don't manage to memorize the myriad of command line options. MeGUI is convenient when adding chapter information to a video which I do once in a blue moon. In principle I could do this with text files and mkvtools, but it's just faster to use the GUI than reading the manual (again).

The page from the researchers is your best source: https://meltdownattack.com/. I also recommend reading the actual papers (https://meltdownattack.com/meltdown.pdf and https://spectreattack.com/spectre.pdf). I haven't gotten to the Spectre paper yet, but the Meltdown paper is excellent, readable, and clear.
Interesting, thanks for point it out.
It’s 2035 and Earth’s population has grown dramatically. People are desperate to find alternatives to the dwindling natural resources needed to keep the global economy functioning. We have bled the Earth dry.

...

In January 2035, a US company becomes the first to successfully mine minerals from space and transport the cargo back to Earth. The haul contains huge quantities of gold and platinum, although it is only a fraction of the resources from the asteroid. The price of gold falls by 50 per cent.

That's anticlimactic. If you were to make a list of "dwindling natural resources needed to keep the global economy functioning" I don't believe that gold would make the top 20. Neither doubling its supply nor halving it would have much impact on the aggregate provision of goods and services within the terrestrial economy.

Platinum group metals are more interesting from an industrial standpoint. Though automobile exhaust system catalysts currently account for the lion's share of industrial palladium demand, and I expect that demand driver to already be past its peak by 2035. There are no doubt other things we could and would use PGMs for if they were significantly less expensive and more abundant. Fuel cells, though they will always have certain disadvantages compared to batteries, would probably be significantly more widespread by now if the cost of platinum were comparable to e.g. silver.
Pixie was abandoned by the author mostly because he realized he couldn't achieve the performance that Clojure has on the JVM.
Exactly. It's why you need multiple, assurance activities on projects to spot what a single one can't handle. I summarized here [1] those that produced results at various points in CompSci and INFOSEC history. Far as this, the first applications of covert-channel analysis to hardware found cache-based, timing channels in both VAX [2] and Intel CPU's [3]. That the caches leaked secrets meant any number of constructions built on top would leak secrets. So, proper response would be either one cache/core/cpu per security domain or designing a new cache that didn't leak secrets. The former was high-security's fall-back with the latter attempted by many in CompSci using partitioning or masking caches. The first was done in 2005 after Percival's work showing secret leaks. That first attempt on partitioned caches also cited prior work in real-time sector thinking similarly to boost determinism: proving determinism and covert channel prevention were always closely related. There were many designs after that for both partitioning and masking before the Intel hit.

So, the root causes of shared, on-chip resources were identified by mid-1990's, demonstrated again by later work like Percivals, being mitigated from that year onward, and ignored by CPU vendors. When I asked in the past, hardware people told me they didn't care about cache security because their sales were strictly tied to customers' benchmarks of performance per dollar and watt. Customers didn't care. Suppliers didn't care. That simple.

There were in fact (tiny) segments where customers were buying processors with more robustness or predictability. Those that come to mind were some PowerPC designs from Freescale that aerospace liked, Leon3-FT SPARC that was GPL, some smartcard components, and especially Rockwell-Collins' AAMP7G [5]. Designed with EAL7 methods from 1992, it had mathematical proof of separation at level, triplicated registers for fault-tolerance, ECC memory, and MILSPEC heat tolerance. It's used in guards to separate Top Secret/SCI info from other stuff.

So, these are old attacks with mitigations of various costs that were ignored for profit maximization by the big companies and performance maximization by most consumers/businesses who didn't buy security in general. Both old and new techniques were effective at assessing leaks and mitigations, though. They could've been used at any time, were by CompSci, were by security-critical suppliers (esp Rockwell), and even more techniques exist now for analysis [6]. Intel et al will just patch up until next attack since they and the market haven't changed. ;)

Actually, I'd turn this on its head and ask: Why is there this claim that they had or have any aces in the first place, Zen or no Zen?

What you and the ggp are basically saying is that Intel slowed down the improvement in their processors on purpose over the last several years. Why on earth would they do that?

Besides, all the evidence points to the contrary, what with them being unable to compete in the mobile space.

I hope so too for their backers sake. There is another dimension to this too that I thought of after my last post.

Their potential partners can be grouped into two categories. Companies that have produced phones before and companies that haven't but may claim related expertise. The former group are competitors to Purism and have a strong economic incentive to stop the commodification of the phone platform, esp for a relatively small payday. For the latter group, they would be essentially funding another company's R&D process. Imo it would be a fatal mistake to choose a fabricator that hasn't produced a phone before. It's so crazy that the latter idea should be dismissed entirely.
Which followers? And what did they take it to mean?
Working 14-hour Days is not efficient. It is performative and counterproductive. Especially for 15 years. I doubt the entire narrative. And Chinese labor has certainly hollowed out the rust belt but that’s more about arbitrage than work ethic. We have tons of things to learn from China, but worship of long hours is not one of them.

Working 16 hours a day does not give enough time for eating, shovering and sleeping. So assuming A works full time and B twice as much, B are making all decisions sleep deprived and in cruck mode. I have seen crunch modes and they are less effective after few weeks.
Work ethic doesn't matter much if one workforce works for a tenth of the wages of the other.

I think this would backfire. If two large enough groups of legislators both said they would go to Washington and do opposing and mutually exclusive things it would create a deadlock where neither group has the ability to compromise.
well the US is the richest country in the world is it not? reflected by having the most amount of high net worth billionaires?

is raising the safety net for the citizens of a rich country that other poorer country have such an existential and threatening notion?

you used the term, plea to describe such safety nets, which is a request made in an urgent and emotional manner. So you recognize that these are the voices of desperate people but still deny their rights.
There are tons of tutorials online that detail workflows involving static site/blog generators (Hugo, Hexo, Jekyll, etc) combined with Git source control, continuous integration, and static hosting services like S3, Netlify, etc.

Netlify even does the CI/rebuilds via Git hooks, and their free tier is amazing.

I'd say this might be the way to go for you, as you will write your content locally, and pretty much own the entire process, whilst not having to deal with servers, and limited Linux admin requirements (although you may get exposed to some of that and you will learn).

You'll also get exposed to some DevOps concepts like source control, continuous integration, "cloudiness," and perhaps "serverless," etc. These are kind of hip/kitsche buzzwords, nonetheless, these are the current tech trends, and definitely here to stay, and the wave of the future...

Maybe your store just isn't that busy. It's pretty common for our walmart to be out of some grocery items, especially produce.
A. Work on your health. Being in better physical shape makes it easier to take such things in stride.

B. Look to your health in the moment as well. While raising special needs kids, I learned that a glass of water, something to eat and/or a short nap was often the difference between losing my shit and continuing to rise to the occasion. So, stop, go to the break room and take care of yourself for 5 minutes. Then deal with it.

C. Journal and work on the person in the mirror. Often, things get a rise out of us more because of baggage from the past than because of how bad it really is right now.

D. Do volunteer work in something that exposes you to problems that get a big reaction out of you. Having perspective can be very valuable for keeping your cool in the face of stressful work situations. If you deal with life threatening, messy problems on the weekend as a volunteer, most problems that come up in an office job just won't get past your callouses enough to get under your skin.

E. Educate yourself on how to effectively solve various problems. Knowing you can fix it is probably the single biggest source of calm in the face of a tempest. So up your game. Figure out what your weak areas are and start filling them in.

I see you ran with a different notion of what I meant by "addressed".

I'm certain victims of mass shootings will beg to differ. Individuals also have a right to not be deceased or live in fear of mass shooters whom you are right, has been addressed with individual right to carry.

Having laws that favor one side heavily is not a standard for 'addressed'. Take a look at Australia, that is proper 'addressing' the issue.

There are critical cultural break-down issues that drive outlier murder rates dramatically more than traditional poverty.

That's why for example, the US hispanic murder rate is 1/3 that of the black murder rate, while hispanic poverty is quite high (most of the US hispanic population is sub 40 years old in terms of its existence in the US, and most hispanic immigrants were poor and with low skill levels when they came to the US). It's very clear that poverty is in fact not the primary cause, it's the collapse of poverty support systems in the cities in question (call it basic human infrastructure, or something). That system collapse leads to extreme desperation, which rapidly erodes a culture, which feeds on itself (~93%-95% of murders in St Louis are black on black murders for example), which prompts a vicious circle that becomes very difficult to break.

Cities like Baltimore and Detroit are more like failed states, to so speak. They've generally suffered total breakdown in the neighborhoods seeing these incredibly murder rate numbers. For example, the Baltimore murder rate comes across as shocking at 55 per 100k. When you drill down further, it's far worse than that, because those murders are isolated to a small percentage of the city, neighborhoods that see dozens of murders each year. These are neighborhoods that have suffered total collapse, their cultures have been destroyed, support systems are no longer existent, and almost everyone is universally afraid to go near the problem (both literally and figuratively). Simultaneously in eg Baltimore or Detroit, you have very scarce resources to go around, the collapsed neighborhoods killing themselves are not going to get those scarce resources. As cliche as it might sound, it's very simply a downward spiral (and as one might expect, to break that, is dramatically more difficult and costly than to just maintain a healthy context in the first place).

My suspicion is, the best way to fix failed cities like Baltimore, is direct, temporary Federal takeover, on the basis of a national interest. I don't see how it makes sense to pretend a city like Baltimore is an independent, functioning city any longer.

But here's the other thing: there is no Meltdown exploit for AMD yet. The paper (https://meltdownattack.com/meltdown.pdf, Section 6.4) is clear that the race condition at the core of the exploit exists in AMD chips, as toy examples show some information leakage. It's just that they can't get a working exploit.

Is there no working AMD exploit by design, or did AMD just get lucky? I bet they just got lucky.
