Don't take anything you read in the New York Times about twitter bots too seriously. They do publish articles that look superficially well researched but which are nonsense or actually deceptive:

https://blog.plan99.net/did-russian-bots-impact-brexit-ad66f...

The problem is that some phrases that appear on the surface to have one meaning have been grabbed and redefined by particular political groups, almost used as code words. "Bot" and especially "Russian Twitter Bot" for example isn't used by Twitter or others in the way you'd always expect:

"Just go to a random [Trump] tweet, and just look at the followers," Singh says. "They'll be like guns, God, America, like, and with the American flag and like the cross. Who says that? Who talks like that? It's for sure a bot."

The idea that Twitter bots can change society in fundamental ways is one that seems to obsess journalists, who all seem to spend half their day on Twitter anyway, but I've yet to see evidence that it's true.
Looking forward to Deep Sarcasm...
So I actually admit in the later reply down below that I don't really have a line. In fact, what I prefer is closer to what you suggest here: a level of respect for life that isn't bunched into two classes but should be on a spectrum dependent on their level of sentience. The reason I said the actual word "line" wasn't too literal, I meant it more in a colloquial sense; I think a more helpful wording would be "you can't include all animals under your definition of 'sentience', some will fall short and essentially make life very unpleasant for you and those humans you love."

The commenter I was replying too shared links that suggest that nearly all mammals should have their life respected and their interests "cannot be considered to have less weight than humans' interests[0]", which is an extreme position most people won't take.

As stated in the article, the previous version of the network required MAC addresses for authentication, and you can easily code something that will allow you to add a MAC to your account from a Web page.

But they wanted to do something new, where you don't have to ask students for something quite obscure for non-techs such as MAC address.

Of course the biggest caveat here is the number of VLANs (4096) that limit the scalability, but which was satisfactory in their case.
Weirdly enough and probably unrelated, I had at least 4 fake friend request from “attractive” women in the last 2 weeks on FB. Mostly these accounts would disappear within hours or minutes. Never had that in x years of being on FB.

Some of them are definitely spammy. If they are vague about the job I pass or if they don't seem very knowledgeable and clearly haven't read my resume I pass.

Recruiters that specialize in your area are better. I've found linked-in recruiters to be better than job board recruiters. Just put some in demand skills on your profile and they will come to you.

I should also mention this probably works better if you already have a job and some experience and isn't so great if you are just starting or switching fields.

That’s funny - I Like the auto preview, in fact I would like them to go further and advertise their content to me, as live TV does. When I watch Netflix at the end of a hard day I’m in lazy consumer mode, I want content to be suggested to me. I hate wading through static dull pictures which give me very few clues as to the content they represent.

Buying your own pick&place is quite similar to buying an FDM 3D printer. It doesn't make any sense at low scale, unless you want to spend endless time tinkering with the machine proper.

Pick&place, as well as 3D printing, begins to make sense at industrial scale, with huge expensive machines. Sparkfun might be a borderline case, but I suspect even they won't use these cheap pnp machines in the longer term.

If you are a hobbyist or a low-scale manufacturing operation, you are much better off using MacroFab, PCBNG, Small Batch Assembly or AISLER.net for electronics production, and Shapeways for 3D printing (SLS). Alternatively, for quantities of ~10 of electronics devices, it makes sense to order your boards and stencils from OSHpark or AISLER, place components yourself using tweezers, and either use a modified oven or a hot air soldering iron for reflow.

This is speaking from experience (as a hobbyist/maker, electronics design engineer designing proof-of-concept and small-scale production devices, and https://PartsBox.io/ founder).

Very ineffective solution for this type authentication, currently any manageable switch has option to enable packet switching only between selected ports (and is same with wirelesses, you can set that clients don't communicate directly), just use firewall plus few scripts and solution ready.

We're mindful of GDPR and consistently ensuring ClearBrain is compliant with the upcoming regulation, from both how we collect and process user data.

With respect to the points raised in the article - ClearBrain actually does not use deep learning techniques as a basis for our predictive models. Predictions in ClearBrain are based either on logistic regression or decision tree paradigms.

From the beginning of when we approached ClearBrain as well, we wanted to make sure we provided a service that wasn't merely a blackbox. We wanted to provide insight into how the models are performing, so we expose analyses such as feature importance, attribute benchmarks, and indications of which actions are informing the models.

This helps with both interpretability and actionability in customer workflows, but also in some of the GDPR issues noted.

Lines need to be drawn somewhere, and people will be upset no matter where the line is drawn. Sometimes we need to accept that we got one line drawn to far to the left for our liking, another drawn too far to the right for our liking, but the choice is to either accept imperfect lines or spend our whole lives arguing or fighting.

This is just as good a place to write this as any:

There is a use case which seems to be missed by all git-related tools: Reading Code on Github.

I would really like to have a tool that would allow me to easily browse my starred repos on GitHub, on my iPad, in offline mode (one-click update of all repos please). And by "browse" I mean read code, so the main focus is not on tags/branches, but viewing files and changesets.

There are plenty of tools that try to let you edit code, access repos, browse tags/branches, but they all assume that you are willing to spend time manually cloning/syncing/resyncing/downloading/uploading repos. This quickly gets tedious (Textastic on iPad is a good example).

Reading code is important, and it seems to have been forgotten.

>For a certain class of program, you mean. For applications specifically, the advantages you mention are barely relevant. Usually only small parts of a whole application need low-level control of memory etc.

I'd say Rust has a similar level of control. I just rewrote our longest build step (37 minutes on a normal build) in Rust. By having control over when things are allocated I could get it down to about 20 seconds. The previous software is written in Java.

If you want speed you need to choose C, C++ or Rust. If you want it safely, then Rust. I'd argue in my case that Rust was probably the fastest choice. As I probably would have copied more in C/C++. In Rust I can trust that my memory is intact.

I'd also choose C over C++ though. I find it's a much more manageable language. I never found it hard to make the right abstractions in it, except for maybe a lack of generics (which C11 kind of solves for).
9 Reasons You Should Use WordPress for Your Website Design
Okay, bracketed paste does not help against attacks.
You do not solve the problem of traceability with packet switching.

Regarding eduroam your comment is incorrect. Most 802.1x auth in universities with eduroam use peap+mschapv2 which is a serious security issue (md4 nt hash). It is way too cumbersome to configure eap-tls and certificates. There are ways to get around it with passpoint/hotspot 2.0 provisionning but this is far from being supported on devices.
Our solution seems way cleaner than what you suggest. There is very few maintenance with our current setup and any student can connect securely to any AP are port in the campus. Our experience with custom scripts is not very satisfying.

It's relatively easy to keep the costs low in Europe: you pay in queues and cheap health care instead of money. That doesn't mean good-or-bad automatically. E.g. giving birth by C-section is a rare event in Europe but it's very common in the US, making the "born" event very expensive on average in the US. You usually get over-testing in the US and under-testing in Europe.

If you have a suspicious mole, or a woman reports pain in the uterus, in Europe you might wait one or two years before a doctor sees you. And then you might get just an "everything looks fine" or a mild painkiller, and start again to look for another specialists or just go to the private health. It's known, but somewhat silenced, that a significant number of heart/liver/kidney patients just die before they get to see the specialist because the system is overloaded. This payment-by-queue drives costs down, but is obviously a bad thing.

It's also known that the public health in Europe just don't cover some treatments, depending on the country. Or they are so overloaded that they just don't work. Think about that: you pay for a supposedly full health insurance, but if you're so unlucky to catch a Hepatitis C that it's not covered because the treatment is expensive, you just wait for your death. Costs are lowered, for sure.

Another side effect is that the top notch specialists in Europe earns about the same money as an average or a bad doctor working for the public health. This causes some of the said top notch to go to greener pastures: the US. It's very typical that the (rich) Europeans go to the US to receive cancer treatments. Thus the US costs are driven up and the Europe costs down.

It's precisely because these market generalities do not match with what was proposed that I called it into question.

Developing new silicon is a risky endeavour. Even going from one process node to a smaller process node without changing the design architecturally is fraught with problems, resulting in lower yield until the manufacturing kinks are worked out. Why would a chip manufacturer agree to a deal where they're expected to take on increased risk for a lower reward? It makes no business sense. That's what I was calling into question.

> "I know you don't have any grounds to speak with any authority on the matter, and you know it too if you're honest with yourself"

I may not personally know the same people vvanders knows, but I can put myself in the shoes of a businessman running a chip manufacturer. I enjoyed debating with vvanders, and aside from leaving out the dig at the people they know in the industry, I'd do it again.

I think you misunderstood. In what I'm envisioning users would not need to type in a MAC address. The infrastructure would detect the new device (via MAC and/or other fingerprintable characteristics) and tie it to the user based on time (here are devices plugged in recently), location (filter by devices in jacks or access points we think are assigned to / proximate to you), and their input (yeah that guy is mine!). You could have them disconnect/connect the device a small, specific # of times to confirm, if there's too much ambiguity (lots of similar new devices just plugged in).

I don't like the terminology either but I wouldn't call it a highlighting service. I think with low and sporadic usage, it wouldn't amount to much more than highlighting, but if it actually became a standard thing, it would make for a decent improvement over current hyperlinks

Specifically in that it pushes for first-source references, if only by making hyperlinks more useful in that regard.

I’d like to see that but I think the turnaround and unpredictability of third parties adds a lot of risk to a product development cycle. If you look at lead times for PCBs and population for example it can be a 30 day turnaround minimum for every cock up you make on a prototype. During that time your engineers may be dead in the water. To get around that you can pay a 20x premium to have your boards shipped fast. Two iterations will pay for a pick and place machine and a basic PCB fab environment and fill the boards yourself. You should already have the rework tools in house. Same with plastics where a 3d printer will get you close enough to get the production tooling done.

The big issue is really setting up manufacturing and supply chain on a large scale when you do get it working.

I'm not feeling that atmosphere at all. Here programmers are treated with utmost respect because there's such a high demand for them.
