If CHAR_BITS is greater than 8, then uint8_t cannot be defined because CHAR_BITS is defined as the width of the smallest object that is not a bit-field. If uint8_t exists, it must be the same width as unsigned char.
China doesn't make the Apple screens.

Samsung and Japan Display make the screens (OLED and LCD). Samsung and Japan Display != China. Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and Vietnam != China. To target Apple in the sense that you're referring they'd have to go after South Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam and Japan first, targeting Hitachi, Toshiba, Sony, Samsung and dozens of other companies directly or indirectly. That would draw in approximately the entire advanced electronics industry and every developed nation.

Good luck with that. China's problem these days is that several other nations in Asia are rising to replace them as legitimate options for building electronics. Vietnam is producing half of Samsung's phones for example. Most of what China does can be done somewhere else. Plenty of developing countries are eager to take on hundreds of billions of dollars in invested capital to build out their domestic manufacturing.

As others have commented we've been using tools like neural networks and boosted decisions trees for a long time. We have quite good simulation which tells us what particles would look like in our detector, but one thing our simulation tells us is that it's often really hard to tell the difference between a Higgs Boson and some other "background" process.

So the logic goes like this: if we trust our simulation, we can simulate the Higgs, and simulate the background, and then train a neural network to tell us which is which. Then we turn the network loose on our data. If it sees lots of things that look like Higgs, yay, we discovered something!

For machine learning tools, we had a few homegrown implementations that didn't get far beyond physics (probably because they weren't particularly user-friendly). But physicists would have referred to techniques like this as "Multivariate Analysis" (or "MVA") a few years ago.

More recently we've started to reach out more to industry and use their tools, which actually much nicer! What she's referring to here is one particular analysis her team contributed to [1], which relied on XGboost [2]. Beyond that we've used Keras a fair bit to identify some types of particles.

Another theory is that other actors have the will and influence to make sure it stays that way.

Before anybody gets drawn in by the clickbait headline, the text of the article is about how China (i.e. large a Chinese vendor) is trying to win Apple's business away from Korean and Japanese vendors. So their sales teams are 'targeting' Apple, which is fine I guess, but not what most people think about when they hear that someone is targeting Apple.
I understand the temptation, but you really shouldn't trust even your own internal subnets if you really care about security.

That is me as well. Or I was more like it will take them some more time to catch up, even in an optimistic view, but they are so relentless in their R&D, they make a lot of progress that it seems now they can do the impossible. And they now likely has better OLED than LG for Smartphones.

Apple has been adopting more and more Chinese components which is slightly worrying. iPhone's Battery is from China, and they are definitely not the best in class. Some of the cover glass are from China, ( They are no all Gorilla Glass ).
L4 is not capabilities based. Probably the biggest reason was not used.

There is no point of having a private blockchain or distributed ledger. Full stop.

Nothing there was no possible before Bitcoin and what they are trying to achieve is some kind of API 2.0 where different companies can integrate within the same technology. This problem is political rather than technical and the blockchain is not a solution by itself.
Is there a word for these types of articles that roughly describe why something works so well? I especially like the acknowledgement of how it could all go wrong and the limitations of the format.

European cities did not form in the way they did because of building codes

Some actually did. Lisbon expanded rapidly in the 1960s, and the new construction was designed on purpose to be 4 or 5 stories high with shops on the ground floor and with primary schools and churches as main foci of community interaction. If anyone wants to check out Google Streetview, the neighbourhoods northwest of the Zoo and east of Campo Grande park are typical.

But in America it seems that no architect made it back alive from WW II, and that's why their cities are so awful.

I haven't written much C, and I don't have a firm opinion on whether or not that particular issue is C's biggest mistake. I do think that just this one change sounds radical enough, as far as the effort it would take to convert existing C code that uses the high-risk pattern, that it seems better to just wholesale convert to a language that already mandates safety like Rust or Java. Particularly when you consider all of the other high-risk patterns in C that these other languages eliminate.

“It would be better to never make a dime of profit than to have a product out there with a problem” is the reason they made a profit.

I’ve seen this lead to needing stifling amounts of consensus building to make any decisions. Similarly, since no one is “in charge”, it is way too easy for a minority to pull a de facto veto by refusing to work on or support whatever initiative they don’t like. Without formal hierarchy, there is limited ability for individuals to get delegated the authority to make efficient independent decisions. Last time I was in this type of environment, on a daily basis I felt I was living in a real life The Emperor Wears No Clothes story just where the emperor was the company’s organization, the clothes were the flat hierarchy delusion, and my coworkers were the sycophants cheering along the parade. Positively maddening...

Mostly correct, except for a few points:

1. RDP2 completely disables the debug interface. The microcontroller doesn't respond to debug requests in this mode.

2. As the third attack requires the microcontroller to have a working debug port, it requires it to be in RDP1. (Which could be accomplished using the second attack.)

"The US electricity system is at an extremely sensitive and uncertain juncture. More and more indicators point toward a future in which wind and solar power play a large role. But that future is not locked in. It still depends in large part on policies and economics that, while moving in the right direction, aren’t there yet. And so the people who manage US electricity markets and infrastructure, who must make decisions with 20-, 30-, even 50-year consequences, are stuck making high-stakes bets in a haze of uncertainty."
Presumably using your method takes longer/requires more samples than a method that only checks once?
Myths about machine learning
This cannot be emphasized enough. In a social+technical work environment, the more you "persevere" on your own, the more you'll become pigeonholed as a tech guru who solves immediate problems but loses influence in the higher-level decisions of your organization. There's still a balance, though, as asking for too much help will lead to resentment and people just straight up thinking you're stupid.

A note about this: much of the optimal control theory work surrounding Pontrayagin's Principle are theoretical building blocks whose primary utility is for mathematical analysis.

In practice, they result in boundary-value problems that are impractical to solve for systems of non-trivial size, and are almost never implemented in practice. Occasionally they are used to construct parameterized solutions for extremum control (e.g. NCO tracking) for very small systems, but these tend to be rarer cases. One runs into dimensionality issues very quickly.

In industrial control systems, optimal control models are almost always discretized and the optimization is done on algebraic systems of equations. Linear algebra dominates there.

Cheapest code signing certs I've found are from K-Software, although even they have jacked their prices a bit since I last renewed.
I've used Gaussian Processes to great effect in the field of energy regression/forecasting for commercial buildings, and have found them to be generally superior to other approaches due to the richness of prior information you can encode into the GP kernel. I'll be attending http://gpss.cc/ this year as well, so you could consider me something of an evangelist!

For example, you might approach a regression problem with the information that you expect the outcome to vary very smoothly w.r.t covariate 1, periodically (cyclically) over a long timespan w.r.t covariate 2, and periodically and non-smoothly (but with a known period) w.r.t covariate 3 and 4.

You don't know the exact form of these relationships (ie: what kind of periodicity exactly, or the nature of the 'smooth' relationship), but you're pretty sure they are related in that way.

GP regression allows you to draw from a posterior distribution over a function space of functions with those properties, conditioned on the observed data. The resulting credible intervals (HPD) are directly interpretable and meaningful without hand-wringing. And in a much more practical sense, the results you get tend to be extremely good compared to other techniques (trees, neural nets, GAM's, etc).

Other very useful applications of GP's include hyperparameter optimization, classificaton, and GP-latent variable models (GPLVMs) for dimensionality reduction and manifold embeddings. The only downside, which other users have mentioned, is the time-space complexity of inverting the covariance matrix, making the computation O(n^3). Various approaches to making GP fitting more performant, including sparse GP models with inducing points, variational approximations to the posterior, help a bit.

My personal feeling is that these models fall squarely into the category of 'clearly the best option if it weren't for the computational complexity'. If that bridge is crossed, we're going to see their popularity grow dramatically.

I wouldn't go quite that far, I think in terms of simplifying your architecture and for providing sandboxing of third party code in a mission critical system there could be some modest benefits in a private blockchain.

However, these are not the reasons why people are usually interested in private blockchains, which as you say revolve mainly around political problems where blockchains can't help much.

I think your statement would be completely appropriate if we were talking about something like a futuristic device like a 'neural lace' that enabled you to input using your brain at an extremely high rate and with minimal to no effort. Calculators and abacuses do the exact same thing, but calculators enable it to be done vastly more quickly and easily.

In this case touch screens are simply vastly inferior for the vast majority of all tasks. At best, they're something different. At worst, they're a textbook example of artificial demand [1] for a mediocre technology driven by highly effective marketing.

And it would mainly be a guess on the Doctor’s part as there isn’t enough science either way. Expect that to change in the next 10-20 years but at this point, your doctor, even with all the medical degrees behind them, know just as much as the bud tender behind the counter. Compound that with the fact that cannabis affects everyone differently then it all becomes a subjective mess.
There are some better input methods for Japanese, and they are not available on smartphones.

SKK

What you are talking above is phrase-wise conversion. However, using SKK can easily distinguish "感じ" and "漢字" by "KanJi" and "Kanji", by explicitly specifying where the conversion starts and ends with Shift key. SKK can massively reduce the conversion candidates, so that people can faster obtain converted sentences.SKK is a good input method, but doesn't exist for smartphones.

T-Code (or TUT-Code)

We also have t-code input methods on computers but not on smartphones. It assigns 2 key strokes into one letter(kana or frequently used kanji) directly. For example, "kd" will type "の" and "is" will be "東". This input method is also very efficient and boost input speed, however it is designed for physical full size keyboard with 8 fingers. Its users can't do the same with software keyboard because they remember the key strokes with fingers.

I personally choose to have so few goals that I can count them on one hand, and remember them at all times.

The most common video compression right now is h.264, which has to be licensed but isn't super onerous.

The newer, better version is called h.265 or HEVC. BPG is a way to use HEVC's single-frame encoding to store an image. HEIC is essentially the same thing, but supported by Apple.

HEVC has ugly licensing, causing a lot of companies to come together to make their own license-free video format called AV1. AVIF is the image format based on AV1.

So nobody wants to go near HEVC, and if they did they would support HEIC over BPG. AVIF might get support, if they think it will be used enough to be worth it.
