Hopefully they will start selling just this motherboard, without the case and power supply. I assume the "Lite" version of the board is just the normal Talos II board but with parts to support the second CPU socket depopulated in order to reduce cost.

Many original complaints about the Talos system were its high price, it seems that Raptor really did listen as this new "Lite" offering is getting down into the "I could probably convince my manager to buy me one of these at work" kinds of pricing, assuming I had a genuine reason to be interested in it.
Hi all,
It doesn’t take too many job interviews to realize how bad they suck. The worst part is they can keep you away from your dream job. Boldvue helps you discover what questions you should practice, what great answers look like in video form, and gets you the feedback you need (free or professional feedback for $10) in order to be confident and nail your job interview. This is our MVP, we’d love it if you could take it out for a spin and give us your feedback. Thanks!
Let’s say he gets paid $50/hr.

If he spends 4 hours on the phone with Comcast dealing with their incompetent “tech support” he has already lost that money. And he’s frustrated to boot.

For some, peace of mind is worth that price. For others, it’s not.

Love this. But am irked by how incomplete these models seem. "First Principles", "Probabilistic Thinking". Both seek to formalize causality in events.

Would speculate Buffet, Munger, et al don't actually bother much with cause and effect when entering large positions. They look at trends, price-action, cash flow and other mathematical micro-economic indicators. As well as a bias on the long term survivability of betting on America as a macro whole.

I'm not saying the GDPR won't apply, the company will still have to spend resources on complying with GDPR requests. However, any user who invokes the GDPR will be in violation of the CFAA and face very seriouos consequences. The question is more "can we engineer a MAD situation where users won't dare invoke GDPR in fear of the consequences"?
Ayurveda. Come to Kerala, India. I am only writing this because I would do it myself if I were in that situation. Not based on scientific evidence. Just a few personal observations of close relatives like my mother and aunt.

My aunt had a spinal injury that basically left her not able to move her body below the waist. As a last resort she was taken to a Ayurveda practitioner who bascially fixed her back up. She even goes fo zumba lessons now.

You basically have to give up everything else for several months and go through painful therapy and massages and also follow a strict terrible tasting diet.

>wishing you hadn't partied away your youth and instead actually tried to do something meaningful or productive.

So Im 27 and Ive been spending almost every moment outside of work, programming.

At least 1 night of the week, me and the wife go to a party, and our lifestyle usually forces us out of the house 1-2 other times during the weekend.

Ive considered this, I could spend every other moment of my week playing video games or going to party.

I kinda am bored of most video games until I get really into it. But the same can be said about programming.

I enjoy parties, but its usually based on the people rather than the drugs. That said, the people are often miss and the drugs I can do while I program.

Here is my current outlook: Programming is always interesting and it is often fun. Parties are rarely interesting and is often fun. My wife is interesting and fun. Bacon is fun. Diet Caffeine free Coke is fun.

My conclusion, enjoy what you enjoy, enjoy being productive, enjoy the physical pleasures. I find video games and netflix an inferior method.
Very interesting thanks for sharing
What Can Algorithms Tell You About Your Writing?
I agree with that, but for the longest time, and I still believe it somewhat, is if you learn the hard way, you will understand the mistake completely and will perhaps learn more than if you just took someone's advise. Of course this only applies to little mistakes and not life changing ones.

There are 4 reasons proposed for the failure of OODBs, in that paper, but scalability is not among them.

Interestingly, the issues are largely C++-specific (and I know lots of people using an ORM today but none via C++), and largely driven by historical accident and market forces ("It is interesting to conjecture about the marketplace chances of O2 if they had started initially in the USA with sophisticated US venture capital backing").

I still don't think these sound like good reasons to dismiss the architecture.

Ask HN: Development on remote dev server using VS Code
I want to do my development (ruby and other languages) on a server in the "cloud" but I don't want to use vi, vim or tmux. I'm currently on a Mac and want to move to a surface book 2 this year so I thought I'd just set it up remotely now so I can easily transition. How are you currently making this work for your needs? Thanks for the suggestions!
Can you elaborate there? This seems like a very speculative statement to conclude 'completely unlikely'.
The best you can do is slap an index -- at the end of the day, as the parent said, you're traversing a linked list in random order which means that if your database index doesn't fit in RAM you'll be doing a random disk access per recursive step. Slow, but no slower than any other solution with that same problem.

If you want to optimize such a query, go back to the drawing board and see if your data truly warrants a recursive random walk.

My problem is going to be 'not traveling' when I was young.

Water transport is comparatively cheap. Urban areas throughout American history have been able to reliably source enough water for their needs. It gets difficult in deserts, but the US was blessed with many, many rivers and abundant rainfall, it's a crucial reason why we rose to prominence in the first place.

There are a few interesting studies in this area, California's agricultural section's tug-of-war with its residents for water is the biggest one that comes to mind, and the lesson you get is that industry uses up the lion's share of the water out of greed and sloth, but enough pressure will force them to curtail usage.
And most automotive crashes are non-commercial vehicles as well.

Yubikey OTP is much weaker than a good challenge-response protocol like U2F. I assume that Yubico is supporting OTP because iOS only exposes NDEF data, and NDEF is effectively a one-way protocol.

Create a brand for yourself and for your company - logo, website, portfolio, LinkedIn company page with logo, etc. That makes you appear legitimate to anyone who finds you.

I see too many freelancers or independent 'studios' not spending any time to create any kind of branding for their companies, and people assume that it's not a legitimate operation.

There is a fairly large difference psychologically between seeing a LinkedIn profile that says "Freelance iOS Developer, Self-employed" with no logo and someone who says "Principal, $COMPANY" with a shiny logo. First impressions matter.

>Flares by the red dwarfs (which are not so rare) could destroy life on these planets

As a layperson, I'm curious how "bad" those flares are. Is it in the realm of possibility that life that develops on these planets could "hide" from these flares when they happen, or evolve defenses against them for when they happen? Or is it more "turn the surface into lava" kinds of events?

Allowing two way communication would permit innovation in connecting devices that are not subject to Apple's direct control.
The reason leased modems fall onto the EOL list sooner is because it takes time for Comcast to rollover those units. Comcast has to continue to support those units until they've removed them from the field. Once they've rollover all the units, then the modem is put on the customer owned EOL list.

The EOL list serves two functions. They will remotely update the firmware of supported modems using the TFTP interface and the will validate supported modems on their network for the speeds offered by the modem. When your modem falls onto the EOL list it is no longer updated and they cannot guarantee your speed. The former is a security concern for them, and the later is more of a nuisance if you upgrade your service to a tier your modem can't achieve on their network.
I'm so, so sorry for your loss. You can't have known. And even now, the scientists probably don't fully know the situation.
>If your SQL has to be computed at compile time, how do you implement any sort of search where you will have a variable number of ANDS & ORs?

It's not your SQL (e.g. whole query) that needs to be computed at compile time, but the proper escaping of placeholder parameters.

So, the answer is: trivially.
There are lots of ways to explain the interference pattern. Probably the most famous "renegade" theory is Bohmian mechanics, which suggests that there's a real particle that is guided by a wave that we can't see. The particle doesn't interfere with itself, but it's guided by a wave that does.

I don't think the particle can select a path from a set at the time it's fired. That sounds very much like a local hidden variable, which is more or less strictly ruled out by violations of Bell's inequality. Unless you allow causality to go back in time (in which case, it can make its decision on where to land based on, for instance, how it will eventually be measured). You can do things to the particle (like trying to measure it, or entangling it with other particles and measuring them, etc) which make it seem less and less likely that the particle could have selected a "which-way" as it was fired.

For instance: suppose you put a detector on one of the slits as the particles are "in flight". We know this results in no 'interference pattern' observed. How do the particles know to scramble themselves as soon as the detector is put on? It doesn't seem like a local effect, since all the particles that go through the other slit never interacted with the detector at all and therefore shouldn't have been affected. But they are anyway. So either there's some information being passed back in time along the particles' history, or there's some strange nonlocal effect.

Just wait until they realize that these were not warm blooded animals and thus the large ones, including T-Rex, would have moved slower than large African animals (probably a lot slower), the fastest of which are about half as fast as normal human running speeds. for the same reason, our stamina should also be vastly superior to dinosaurs. If we just simply keep walking after running away, dinosaurs will never catch up.

Even the smaller ones would only be able to maintain their top speeds for very short durations. Double digit seconds at the very most, and one can be fairly sure not more than 20/30 kph.

Humans, and in fact nearly every animal, should be able to easily outrun and outlast any dinosaur. Probably the same as crocodiles, where being a lot faster and having more stamina does little good once those jaws close, or if you can't tell where the animal is reliably (like underwater). So they should be a lot like crocodiles : a human can pester them (on land) and be nearly perfectly certain that (s)he's never going to get caught by the animal (which is practiced in North Australia to get the things out of your bedroom).
Ok, this is dumb. Real dumb. I would trust (the leaked) secure enclave OS than Yubico's offerings. And the Secure Enclave is already built in, versus this 3rd party hardware.

Also, using something like andOTP is perfectly fine to run, which is also a U2F TOTP solution. It integrates perfectly with LinOTP, Google Authenticatior, or other 2fa solutions.

In essence, if you're using Linux anywhere, 2fa is free to implement, free to manage serverside, and just works. There's no reason for Yubi-anything.

Also, within the next few weeks/months, NIST will be stating that phone calls, Texts, and emails are no longer an acceptable 2fa for secure stuff.

You're not considering an important subset of renters. Consider the elderly, those who have lived in a given community for many years. They may not be driving anymore, everyone they know is around that neighborhood, their doctors, family, and their whole life. It'd be very heartless if it was possible for landlords to displace the old since they are unable to keep up with the market forces which demand 5% rent increases yearly.
Sounds all nice in theory but how does it actually work?

Maybe it's easier to just disable unsafe usage in netty. It can run without it. All the magic hoops you have to jump through to 'unlock' Unsafe are silly - libraries just do the incantations and the JVM developers still end up with loads of libraries using internal APIs.

They should have just standardised raw pointers in the Java language and libraries. Then Netty and SubstrateVM wouldn't require these hacks. Of course it's typical for all modern languages, Java is hardly alone in struggling to integrate well with C in high performance ways.
It's become a big thing because it's convenient. Every time I sign into 1Password on any of my devices, all of my passwords are there. I don't need an account with Google, Dropbox, or Microsoft for it to work and I don't need to do any manual setup. It "just works", which is exactly what the average person wants their software to do.

Manually dealing with files is a sign of poor software design for simple use cases, in my opinion. I quite like the iOS model that abstracts the idea of a filesystem away from the user because the user never cared about the file system anyways. They just had to deal with it to do whatever they really wanted to do.

Surely this is a false dichotomy no? The alternative to some "CEO of some internet company" isn't "party away your youth."

I don't think theres much value in "something you have" so much as there's value in "approving this authentication via another device". Adding an additional device to compromise running an entirely different platform makes attacks much more difficult, even if we're talking about a poorly secured Windows machine and outdated Android phone. Enough to make you effectively invulnerable to almost all non-targeted attacks which will only breach one side or the other.
>How Norwegians and Americans See Inequality Differently

>“In Norway, people very much disapprove of inequalities that are due to bad luck,” Bertil Tungodden, a professor at the Norwegian School of Economics, and one of the paper’s authors, told me. “People in the U.S. are more willing to accept inequality, even if it reflects pure good luck for some and pure bad luck for others.”

Less of a problem because inequality is lower, and fewer people feel the need to join gangs for protection/to get by. Of course, it's also more homogeneous.

Duality more than an interpretation seems to be an uncertainty state since we can't discard one of the possible models. Models are after all mathematical devices around a metaphor: EM waves are similar but not the same as waves in a fluid, and subatomic particles are more like machines than like little balls. But the maths stand.

Actually I just disagree with you about this point. I also believe that physicists are too confident in chains of deductions that could fail in some point.
