There's a whole other thread covering this.

He asked them to respect the extension. They pushed back against it. Rather than making a big fight about it, he shrugged and went "Well, fine, whatever"

It was obviously not an amenable thing to him, because he's specifically not even going to give them the same level of warning with the understanding they must respect the full embargo period, because right after the bit you quoted, he says:

>To avoid this problem in the future, OpenBSD will now receive vulnerability notifications closer to the end of an embargo.

If it was just him going "Yeah dudes go for it it's cool everyone else will have to wait out the extended embargo but you can just release the patch immediately!" he wouldn't be punishing OpenBSD for it.
I thought something like this was supposed to be impossible because it would allow FTL communication? Or is the communication at light speed?

Haven't they had your passport photo on file, like, forever? Probably since before digital archives even existed. The USA is a bit different in this regard, but every country with a national ID (i.e. most of the world) has your face linked to your name, nationality and document number, that's how ID works, it gives an ability to identify people.

I was amazed once I started looking how many tinned foods now come in a plastic lined steel can. I guess metal taint taste in oily or acidy food? But then I'm glibly assuming the plating metal they used before when men were men and can openers were lethal wasn't bad. (it was that zinc or tin or whatever, which looks like giant flat crystals, I have NFI what plating technique does that)

Well, in practice, it is more than a promise. You are not forced to use Mnesia. You can use other backends to simplify the ops. Yes, it is as simple and make managing the platform a breeze. You need to be as stateless as possible.
Maybe? Self-defense doesn't usually extend to "He shoved me while in a public space with other people around so I killed him." One has to believe that there were indeed extenuating circumstances but it's not really clear from the article what they were.
I think something was missed, and maybe I missed it. It looks to me like this:

var a = getData();
if (a != null) {
var b = getMoreData(a);
if (b != null) {
var c = getMoreData(b);
if (c != null) {
var d = getEvenMoreData(a, c)
if (d != null) {
print(d);
}
}
}
}

will only print on non-null, whereas this:

do
a <- getData
b <- getMoreData a
c <- getMoreData b
d <- getEvenMoreData a c
print d

will always print something.
But perhaps they would not kill it if it were deemed too big or important to fail. Doesn't preclude others from attempting to kill it, of course.
There's no real need to worry about Google in the long term - nVidia can make back their money solely with their GPUs; Google probably made their expenses back this weekend with searches around the Olympics. It'd be pointless for them to not use their TPUs themselves, and their main product, Adsense, uses ML.
Just to clarify, is this benchmark leveraging mixed-precision mode on the Volta V100? The major innovation of the Volta generation is mixed-precision which NVIDIA claims is a huge performance increase over the Pascal generation (P100 in the case of your benchmark).

In my current team, we use 360 feedback to review each other. This review happens two times a month. The feedback contains what principles and improvements. This system works well for our team because we have 1-on-1 with our coach. The coach will review from the feedback. Beside that, this system feedback doesn't work well at first pilot because my team doesn't like write a feedback manually. After first pilot, the feedback system moves from written manually to online document.
If combat soldiers are worried over one person's use of bigoted language, they've got their heads in the wrong place.

I was listening to a veteran speak about this. Basically, the squad leader told everyone, okay, you're from all over, and your fellow soldiers are from all over. You're going to encounter racists spouting all sorts of crap. Don't worry. They'll get over it when there's real work to do.

I think disagree with the parent comment and you.

For reference, there appear to be two definitions of bargain:

1.an agreement between two or more parties as to what each party will do for the other.

2. a thing bought or offered for sale more cheaply than is usual or expected.

I believe that the author actually does mean to use definition #2. One of the section headers in the article is "Bargain Shopping Careers." This certainly implies looking for GOOD deals not simply 'agreements.'

While I agree the first definition of bargain is also commonly understood, if you say 'seeking bargains' and all you mean is a that you are seeking agreements AND you are talking to someone who grew up in United States, I would advise you to just say "seeking agreements" otherwise the person will assume you are specifically looking for 'good deals' not simply agreements.

I think you might want to factor that they are adding their own fees? Also, I think the market may have changed since then (AWS lowered prices and new GPUs have come out). Google's workload is also different than the benchmark that is given in this.
Secret chats never leave the device basically.

The problem I have with telegram is that /by default/ it's security is very poor. It's stored and relayed by their servers so you can have a unified chat history.

However, if you hit the secret chat button I don't see a reason to think that this is stored in any way by them (and auditing the client I use confirms this for Qt linux desktop/iOS)

Sure, using your gut instinct in things like hiring, things where we want and need to be as objective as possible, is probably a recipe for bias and that's bad. Interviewing for roommates is something different, more intimate. You're going to be sharing space with this person and letting your gut reject someone is fine. If you're not comfortable having a female rommate, fine. If you're not comfortable with someone, for whatever reason, there is nothing morally or legally[0] wrong in rejecting them.

No glove fits everyone. There are many answers to the problem and each depends on the set of circumstances in which your service exists. Security is, simply put, risk management.
To put things into a context: the 'average Joe' user is rarely going to be targeted specifically - which means that the biggest attack vector of the average user is brute forcing by bots and phishing attempts or maybe a key/password stealing malware.
Hence your argument that 'key-based auth' just shifts the attack vector is partially incorrect because automated attacks do not focus on a specific target but on a specific vulnerability - like password guessing bots for example which move from IP to IP and try a bunch of simple password. If these passwords don't work, the bots will not try to hack a dev's workstation, they'll just find an easier target.

So for the average user it makes sense to move to key based auth because it will remove a big attack vector. It is still possible that the workstation where the private key resides becomes compromised, but thats another attack vector that needs to be addressed by different security methods (eg, passphrase on the private key).

I live in Switzerland and domestic payments are near instantaneous and free. EU based payments are also free and settle within a day. Saying crypto can trade with low fees as some sort of unique benefit is either naive or disingenuous. There is literally zero need for cryptos in this regard, because the problem can be solved in context of the existing systems too. At best, one could argue that the threat of cryptos can force shoddy banks and payment orocessors to up their game.

In America, the distribution of deaths has an (at least) equally significant effect as the number of deaths, at least up to a point where the number gets particularly huge.

The distribution effect is often ignored by non-US reporting about various "social maladies" (stupid term, but gets the idea across) in the country: the US is surprisingly internally divided not just in politics, but in empathy. There's often a nation-tribalist effect of "people are dying not in my (city|town|state|area|demographic|politcal party); I consider those deaths sad, but no sadder than someone dying in another country", which I think is important and often overlooked.

Few nits with this:

1. This seems like an article about Haskell's do-notation, not Monads. The article even decries Promises, which _are_ Monads.

2. "Call you language implementor and ask for do-notation today!" isn't very satisfying. I would be curious to read such a proposal for eg; JS, though it would need another name (do-expressions already have a proposal). Meanwhile, it might have been helpful to show how to implement these Monads in a common tongue (eg; JS).

3. The article did not display the bodies (or even type signatures) of the functions at hand. It's unclear to a reader unfamiliar with Haskell whether they are all the same, and what interface they must conform to.

4. The examples listed as "Hell" don't sound like hell to me. They're minor annoyances that I run into occasionally. The code listed as "problematic" isn't blissful to write and doesn't feel elegant, but is universally easy to write and read.

As an aside, it feels like Go and Haskell would be at opposite ends of some spectrum (obvious vs elegant?). In almost any business/production setting, I would choose the former.

In earlier times you could travel somewhere else and try the same thing again, one side-effect of which was the proliferation of serial scammers.

For a good person, in a sense that covers most people, having your past reputation follow you around is a benefit, the ability to wipe out reputation only benefits those with negative reputation. Furthermore, if there's a general assumption that it will follow you around, it acts as a deterrent to avoid doing immoral things, since you won't be able to easily walk away from that.

The obvious limitation to "anyone can publish any information about you, tag it to your face" is the well-established concept of libel. Publishing false harmful information is already forbidden, but they should be able to "warn the world" if the information is truthful.

By reframing the debate. Currently you have Democrats too scared to push real gun control because Hillary's assault rifle ban 20 years ago led to them losing control in congress. But a lot has happened since then and everyone - even gun owners, even Republicans - is fed up. Yet we still remain scared of the NRA.

Even some of my Conservative friends respond to the argument of banning ALL guns. It's clear and ballsy. They appreciate clear and ballsy.

That's not a very scalable hack.

As dnet mentioned, that only protects the session data -- never assume that the device is setup securely or even competently. There are plenty of stories out there about traffic controls that are hooked to unsecured Mifi devices. [1] There will be remote management ports or other ways to access the device.

The other thing where router hacking is productive is that the typical "secure connectivity" solution offered by carriers for this sort of application is MPLS. Compromising the router with something like this makes it even easier for a entity that compromises the network to identify the traffic that is of interest!

I agree with you that the cost of TPU development probably out ways the number of dollars that Google will earn renting TPUs. The thing is, no one else has a TPU but Google. That doesn't look like it will change any time soon. That means that if you want to run the fastest machine learning models, you have to use Google Cloud. Now, Google doesn't just benefit from the TPUs, they can now sell more customers to come to their cloud. After that starts happening, all of the best machine learning people will have Google Cloud experience. Then when they start something new, they will use what they know: Google Cloud. Also, they will create the tooling that only works with TPUs and gives an advantage you cannot use outside of Google Cloud. So, it will be a net win for Google even if it is more expensive to run a TPU than what they are renting them for.

tl;dr TPU helps Google Clouds' network effect.
IIRC, TPUv2 uses 16 bit floating point in some format with higher dynamic range and lower precision than standard fp16. Can someone confirm?

I didn't mean that Georgia and Yugoslavia are doing badly now. I meant that the civil war there erupted from very minor issues, and it was very painful to the generation that experienced it. I have those places as examples of how easy a seemingly stable country can fall into chaos.

In a country like China, US, or Russia, it's much harder to stop a civil war or chaos, and the damage from that is immeasurably greater. So avoiding it is really important.

I didn't understand what you meant about the discrepancy. If you don't mind explaining, I'd appreciate.
Well, they do have the fastest supercomputer in the world currently and it's made with homegrown chips. No Intel ME backdoors there. Smaller chinese companies could, for a little more money, get similar performance buying 8x V100 machines from NVidia. I don't think they want to share their advancements in AI fighter pilots with USA. They have a big lead.
All the ad hoc solutions look at least as clear if not clearer than their monad equivalents.

Also, that article conveniently ignores that as soon as you start mixing monads, you enter a different kind of hell: monad transformer hell.

Because you see, monads don't compose. Not without these transformers. And if you think the monad examples in that article were hard to follow, wait until you see monad transformers in action.

Also, I don't think replacing a `for` loop with a `for` comprehension is that much of a gain. I'll pick a `map`/`filter`/... any day over such `for` loops.
I assume that's part of your PHD thesis. Without having the time to read it in detail I admit that you've probably spent a lot more time than most here thinking about this and rather than try to repeat your many strong criticisms of purely electronic voting I'd encourage anyone else interested to read it too.

Perhaps you can enlighten me on this point:

> "Voting machines aren’t supposed to record video or keep any record that associates you with your votes, because your ballot is supposed to be secret"

Is this definitely impossible even allowing for (possibly impractical) secret-sharing schemes where you provide enough information to prove you're a valid voter and to check afterwards that your vote was counted, without giving away to anyone else how you voted?

>I am surprised the TPU doesn't kick the ass of the NVIDIA chips.

Yeah, I'm a bit disappointed myself. When announced initially, it seemed Google had a huge lead. But they dragged their feet for two years getting it to market, and now NVidia is nipping at their heels already.

I suspect they are using the TPUs internally for competitive advantage, and these are the leftovers they are done with. They're probably using v4 or v5 internally already.
