It's because Noyce passed away before he got widely famous like eg Gordon Moore. Outside of tech circles Andy Grove never got quite as famous as Gordon Moore, due to Moore's Law. William Shockley is less famous than all of them. And none of which became remotely as famous as Gates, and those that have come along since. Noyce was a quiet giant.

Plus, to amplify that, there are a lot more software hackers here than hardware hackers.

When Noyce died in 1990, the computer revolution had only barely crawled out of the cave. Silicon Valley and the US were in a recession; SV's financial might and reach was tiny compared to what it is today. It was only in the late 1980s that computer sales finally took off, global PC shipments were ~9 million in 1987, ~20 million by 1990, and 100 million by 1998.

Look at the tech industry in, say, 1988:

Microsoft $590m in sales. Intel $2.8b in sales. Apple was at $4b in sales. Those were three of the giants, and all of those figures were huge increases over just a few years prior.

GM's sales by comparison in 1988, were $110 billion. The tech industry was tiny 30 years ago.

On a side note, the 1988 Intel annual report opens with a very neat 20 year anniversary walk-through of their technology history:

When I last did something like this, I reset to the original OS because of only one other thing I encountered - proprietary software like for e.g. Samsung S-Pen would not work. Unless I missed something?
Glad that someone managed the translation. Another note: I'm a trained mathematician, I'm not afraid of a type system (nor are the physicists I work with). In fact I was missing one dearly in Python. If that was all that was needed to write C++ instead of Python we all would.

Yet that's how Julia looks to us: Python + a sensible Type system.
When I started (firefox) it was just a grey page with a frame rate graph in the top left. Turns out it started zoomed in way to far. Really cranking back on the scroll wheel revealed the map.
not only that, the fact that you have programmatic access to low level semantics up to presentation into a "single" window and language. Very dynamic and multilayered

The WebAssembly Studio may track its usage through telemetry. We use this information to improve user experience. This information is not made publicly available.
I was overly coddled and eventually got past it. However, like you mentioned, I have anxiety and it causes similar obstacles.

I’m interested to hear what you think helps?
It would be publicly visible on github, such that the community can see the dispute and the response (or lack thereof) from the other project. While it won’t necessarily fix the problem, it is more visible.

IMHO Ruby was better off in 1.8 with green threads; one Ruby VM per core and using MPI for message passing.
Hey, I picked a similar stack when I developed my product. Basically we started with EJS templates since they were the closest to normal HTML but had to move to serverside Vue + Express because of security issues when mixing Vue + EJS.

I'd love to talk more about what/why if you have any questions. Shoot me an email @ [redacted] if you're interested.
The Snickerdoodle got a lot of attention for its price point (which turned out to be unrealistically low... I commend them for following through though). It's an odd platform. They were going for an ecosystem of carrier boards, but ended up with 0.050" pitch connectors. Which are good if you've got flying leads, but I can't see myself using a Zynq for that kind of work. The mating connectors are ~$7 in small quantities which is comparable to the smaller, tighter pitch connectors other dev boards use, so there isn't really a cost savings if you build your own plug-in boards. It might even cost more for wide I/O in terms of connectors and board space.

You're right that technology has continued to march along. $250 for a Zynq Ultrascale is very tempting, but I have enough dev boards collecting dust...

I think that’s the point. They’re trying to change it by expanding it, bringing in more revenue sources from ads other than the ones you describe.
Dune 2 invented the C&C/Warcraft/Starcraft style RTS though. Other games had RTS elements to them before that, but not like Dune 2. And certainly not to the extent that subsequent games tried to copy their successful format.
When I first moved my family (from Denmark originally) to New York we had to put our oldest son in a daycare.

We have always been fairly "free range" i.e. our kids have had their share of bruises from climbing and in general being allowed to do challenging things.

After a week at the daycare my wife went to pick my son up, one of the teachers pulled her aside and told her that they, unfortunately, had to report some of the bruises on his arm or shoulder (can't remember) and that they hadn't said anything about the bruises on his legs.

My wife and I freaked out worried that the social services would come and take him away.

Of course, we soon learned that it wasn't actually the bruises on our son they were worried about but whether we would report them for mistreating our son.

The primary problem in the US is the liability issue which certainly doesn't help.

People in general though are really weirdly paranoid about their kids. I always thought it would be counterproductive for them later in life. Better to fall when you are a little boy than when you are older.

Anyway who knows.

Looking up published mileage of say a Tesla X, Nissan Leaf, Chevy Bolt, and Toyota Prius, all but the X have better city mileage than highway mileage (but the X is 86 MPGe city vs 89 highway, so even then it's only 3% difference).

That's the neat thing about electrics and hybrids -- the "you get better highway mileage" intuition gets flipped by regenerative braking.
This all true an a pre-Treble world, we are already starting the post-Treble world now (I'm booted to a Treble GSI).

Just had to promote this game a bit more.

Categorizing Dune 1 as an adventute game is a little to simplistic IMHO. The way it gradually morphs from an adventure game into a strategy game is one of the most enjoyable and unique gaming experience I’ve ever had. And is a large part of why I remember this is one of the best games ever made.

Absolutely do play it through if you haven’t.

Opposed to manufacturers still doing updates over USB hell who take years to patch vulnerabilities. Why the NTSB doesn't demand source code is beyond me.
The proposal can sure use a couple questions. Even if the questions can be quickly answered by googling, once they get on a Stack Exchange site, they get a lot of benefit from the community.
BSD/MIT/Apache licenses are about freedom: go do whatever you want with it, including being a good steward of free software and returning improvements. (Unfortunately, these licenses allow for the relicensing of code as GPL which is why I think CCDL is a superior license.)

GPL is built on the premise that there is/should be no such thing as intellectual property or proprietary software (go read RMS's work: it's a quasi-religious rant). The GPL endorses theft by communist tactics that says "thanks, suckers!" to all of the BSD-licensed projects whereby derivative works of BSD-to-GPL copied code is no longer free to be returned to the BSD project from which it was taken. Do this enough times and a thriving BSD project can be ruined. Take Linux: they didn't have a TCP/IP stack that worked back in the day so they took the one that worked from FreeBSD. They didn't have SSH so they took that from OpenBSD. Throw in some FUD about the legal status of the BSDs and suddenly Linux is the hawt, darling project of open source and all of the hard work that had gone into Free/Net/OpenBSD is raped in a one-way transfer of IP to the benefit of Linux and the detriment of the BSDs.

Down-votes of this comment without debating the merits of my argument will be construed as pusillanimous acceptance of the thesis. _Convince_ me that I'm wrong... I'm willing to listen.

It was/is the way out of poverty. While in the "west" a "humanitarian" can enjoy a high quality of life, in the east it is associated with poverty.
I don't think one can overestimate the geo-political value that Denmark earns from having the Faroe Islands and Greenland under the Danish crown.

Surely one does not need to be jaded to think that there is a reason other than altruism that makes Danish politicians vote in favor of paying this subsidy each year.
The malaria that infects humans only infects humans, which is simpler than if you also have to deal with animal reservoirs.

For Pixels they only provide images to paying customers. They were mad about people resellling flashed devices because it violated their noncommercial license and even disabled the update servers for Nexus devices entirely for a while.

Remembering When Only Barbarians Drank Milk
Programming jobs since the 90s were offering a much better pay than pretty much every other job. So parents were pushing kids to pursue CS degrees. With completely free or very cheap education this created a lot of competition for such degrees. And with math exam being the only deciding factor to get accepted, only people who were really good at math and really well prepared were getting in. Sort of due to the lack of other opportunities filtering the most capable and the most motivated.
Great example. No, they didn't, though you wouldn't guess that from the news coverage. They filed complaints with four regulators. The details are all here. https://noyb.eu/

I wonder how much the built environment impacts the independence we can give our children. For instance, regarding the milestone of safely crossing the road that this article mentions, does the common milestone age decrease in more pedestrian-friendly places? It's one thing to cross a one-lane, slow-traffic narrow street in Europe versus a wide, high-speed one characteristic of most American suburbs.
The company I work on (quite small, 15ish people) uses this, mainly as a replacement for the outdated Sinopia. Works just great, with seamless proxying, and makes it quite faster since we run it on the internal network. Even NPM modules get cached. Which is very handy given we cannot use Yarn or PNPM.
I find DDG to be slightly better for technical things. It is pretty similar though.

The real difference is non-technical things. Google filters out unflattering results and one side of anything even remotely political. It's a nerfed world, kind of like a Disney theme park. I'm an adult and I don't need to be led with blinders to the googly viewpoint.
Anxiety might kick in that I'm not sufficiently working towards the goal or solving the problem correctly.

Outside of proper therapy probably not much and I've never gotten around to do that. In my case it helps to make sure that I always have something to work on alone via issues on JIRA or other collaboration tools.
Can confirm - Russian schools and universities, at least before the last decade, perhaps with very few exceptions, were really awful at teaching computer science/programming.

Programming, and to some extent maths, were seen as somewhat cool among certain circles of kids.

I suspect widespread piracy might have also helped - it gave you access to cheap software (Visual Studio, 3DS Max, Delphi etc.), shoddy pirated copies of games that you sometimes needed some technical expertise to get to run, made it easy to play with loads of different software/games/ideas.

If the GPU + Motherboard passes EMI compliance, then the GPU - Motherboard must also pass, since the motherboard doesn't provide shielding but only adds noise. So I don't think the particular motherboard should matter. The measured interference will always be >= to the real interference produced by the GPU under test.
The scale is jaw dropping.
Unusual preprocessors in longstanding classical languages such as C and Fortran should be a well-considered decision. I know a particular example of a mature Fortran code which must be preprocessed with a weird perl script which enriches the Fortran notation with some semantic meaning of the array indices. We can do something similar now in a C++ code which uses templates but can be compiled without any tricks.

My personal bottom line: Better stick to the language canon and switch the complete infrastructure then only parts of it, except it is a small developer group or exceptional documentation.
Also, "in JavaScript" can be appended to make clear that this is specific to that programming language.
Any country found to have used bioweapons against the US would be in a similar position to one that used nuclear weapons.

I would say the Eastern Bloc has a culture of hacking even outside of computer science - DIY with limited resources was very widespread.
Last time I looked at it, maybe a couple of years ago, the parent's approach was not nearly sufficient if you don't want your phone communicating with Google. There was so much, including things baked into Android, that it would have been a full time job to identify and find solutions to everything. The only hope was another OS (including Android forks/ROMs), and none of those available at the time seemed sufficient secure - many didn't focus on security, didn't know what they were doing, or lacked resources to complete the job - or capabilities.

As one simple issue, I'm pretty sure Android uses Google's DNS and that is hard to change.

Sorry to be vague; I wish I had more details but don't have time to look them up right now. The basic message is: It's not sufficient, depending on your goals. to rely on settings in the GUI and to avoid Google applications.
I keep telling people about this and their unconcerned reactions really worry me.
We’ve managed to eradicate malaria in many parts of the world without any consequences, sure other strains may mutate but so far they haven’t.
If they do we’ll figure out how to deal with them when that happens.

Malaria isn’t the first parasite we’ve eradicated some of them we’ve eradicated globally and hopefully it won’t be the last.

The biggest problem isn’t the how but it’s how to do it in Africa where the infrastructure and the stability of governments across the entire region makes it a hard task to accomplish.
Whether you like China or not, Islamic fundamentalism is a huge problem to global peace today. Not just in the Middle East, Europe, but also parts of Southeast Asia (Malaysia, Philipphines) and China.

The problem is people clinging to old time religious beliefs that women are inferior and must be veiled and that infidels are not worthy

We've slowly dispelled Christian fervor (which used to be just as bad as Islamic fundamentalism) by slowly improving the scientific literacy rate and living standards in the west. Must of the Islamic countries haven't seen growth like this. How do you root these out?

Not sure if China's hard handed approach may work. Maybe it will, who knows. Maybe it will fail. But we at least must do something about it
Besides this being dystopian out of the western libertarian pov, i wonder what it actually does against crime? I imagine a crime free city would be an interesting human phenomenon without equal. The side effects of there not being any undetected and unprosecuted crime would be fascinating.
From 2006-2008 I worked in a WebObjects dev team, and it was extremely enlightening.

So, so, so much of the work is done for you with WO, it's so much faster to just get down to business and code in your business logic. To this day I miss everything being done for me.

I genuinely hope Apple find a way to resurrect it.

EDIT: Project Wonder[1] gets a mention in the links section. This is a "mod pack" for WebObjects that is like putting it on steroids. Seriously impressive stuff.

Sorry but I don't understand how defining multiple ranges would have been simpler than only having one. I also fail to see how 4% of global annual revenue is unreasonable considering facebook and google have both been fined the previous maximum amount of 150 000€ with no consequences for them and they went about their day keeping at doing what they were doing that caused them to be fined.
The thing is I don't know how this law could be "nicer" for small sites but continue to be fair.

I feel a bit bad for small creators that need to fix their sites but at the same time I dislike the people that are trying to find possible loopholes around the law, fixing all this loopholes and workarounds is the reason the laws have long texts.

Do you have a website or something that is affected? I only have a simple site that I used some time ago as CV and for testing, I never had tracking scripts,analytics, referrals.
I am also the opinion if you don't want to respect my privacy then tell me that and block my access.

So we restrict it to a subset that you can’t figure out how to exploit? How reassuring.
Same here in Canada, though I wonder if part of the reason older siblings are trusted with younger ones is that parents are less worried the second or third time around—if they’re more trusting that “the kids will be alright,” by then.
What is crime though? Do you want to live somewhere where spitting on a random sidewalk in front of the wrong camera means you're banned from flying for a year? Is the fear of criminal violence greater than the fear of state violence?
GPL is about freedom of the source code and not people.

Not going to debate whether that makes sense with someone who's username is trolling and that just the start.

It might be hard to study as I'm not sure how accurate crime stats are in China at all, let alone that region before the crackdown.
You can, but you definitely shouldn't.
There is nothing wrong with being required to take you car in to get an update for something that need to pass certain safety standards.

Do you want OTA updates from Boeing or Airbus?

From what I have read on another post on HN, Waymo specifically does not have the ability to do OTA updates although the car is connected all the time.
Yes, but I think your parent's point is that the sites which enable HTTPS _did_ choose to remove support for known-broken protocols versions, so you've got on the one hand people who cared at all, all doing something vaguely modern and secure, and people who did nothing (plain HTTP), with no security.

You can think of TLS 1.0 as essentially SSLv3.1, with TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 then as SSLv3.2 and SSLv3.3

And you might think of this as the normal course of any versioned system - tinnier and tinnier changes, except TLS 1.3 (now awaiting publication) is basically completely fresh, it only looks similar on the wire until encryption switches on, in order to maximise compatibility with legacy middleboxes, once it penetrates the middleboxes it's nothing like SSLv3.
I don't see how a different license would have helped you here? The license has no influence on someone misrepresenting your relationship with his company, that's just not covered in software licenses.

You probably switched to GPL to make your software less directly usable for companies?
I trialed several different pixel art tools and really like Aseprite so I purchased a license for the full edition.

I was asking more of a feature comparison of why one would be better in terms of actually creating pixel art and animations, not a licensing and memory consumption comparison.
Source code is the product of one or more human beings, their ability to think and solve problems. Do you agree with the creator of the GPL that humans have no right to own the work-product of their minds?
1.) It is both less sex and more protection.

2.) Statistically, kids who are well informed about sex and have factual information tend to both start later and use protection. So no, later sex is not failure of parenting. It is result of kids making rational well informed choices. (Meaning them skipping sex with partner they don't trust, them being less likely to be manipulated or shamed into it, less likely do it just to acquired social status or for fear they will look gay.)

3.) There is nothing inherently good about soon sex. Self control is good thing and will be correlated with later sex (cause you skip some chances by choice). The idea that there is something wrong with you if you are not having sex at 17 is ridiculous anyway.
On the Polymer project we used a private Verdaccio server to test out automatically converting and publishing ~100 packages from Bower and HTML imports to npm and JS modules.

It was pretty indispensable to be able to try out such automation without spamming real npm with 100s of sometimes broken packages.
