I've seen this a few times in the .NET world, mainly as a carry-over from Subversion when we had moved to Mercurial and git.

Some mad genius in a company will write a fuck-ton of helper classes and utilities that take the heavy lifting out of everything remotely hard, to the point where you almost never need to touch a third-party API for a CMS, email send service, or cloud-hosting provider. Instead of supplying these as private NuGet packages to be installed into an application, they sit in solutions in their entirety, in case they are needed. That application then goes to a new developer team, and they have zero idea why there are millions of lines of code and dozens of projects for a basic website that doesn't really seem to do anything.

It's a nice idea, but it has resulted in some very tightly coupled applications. I remember one time where a new developer changed some code in one of the utilities that handled multi-language support, and for some reason our logs reported that the emails were broke.

I read "memory is untouched" as no read/write accesses.

Because it'd be pretty odd for the page to change after first read from operating system implementation point of view. Generally I'd expect the default mapping to be to an all-zero physical memory page. (Unless there's a rowhammer attack (or similar) that successfully modifies said all-zero page...)

From C/C++ point of view, it's legal for uninitialized memory to arbitrarily change between (undefined behavior) reads until it is written to.

While I doubt any actual OS would modify the page in this manner after first read access, a C/C++ compiler can still return arbitrary (even random) values when reading from uninitialized memory. It doesn't even need to actually read from the memory proven to be uninitialized.
I've currently got no driver issues per se. But even in 2018 I don't have hibernation out of the box, battery life and wifi are both worse than Windows on the same machine, and the fans are on all the time.

I mean, I still love it and these aren't life or death issues, it's just something fundamental about the nature of Linux in an ecosystem of proprietary hardware specs and commercial drivers. It will always be a fact of life. Just like Linux package management, because the software is open source, will always be better than on Windows or a Mac. That's a fact of life that can't really change because of the nature of _their_ ecosystems.

No harm in admitting the differences, but good for you if everything works out of the box!

> The USA is just too spread out for rail travel to really work well

Not true.

Chicago to Detroit: 282 miles (4.5h via car) 5hours via train TODAY. (It should really be 2 hours with a train going ~180mph)

Chicago to St. Louis 311 miles (5h via car) 5.5 hours via train (With proper investment: 2.2 hours via HSR train)

Sure end to end may be long; but even then not as long as most people realize.

> China launched services Wednesday on the world’s longest high-speed rail route, linking the nation’s capital in Beijing all the way to the country’s southeastern hub of Guangzhou.

> Averaging speeds of up to 186 m.p.h. (300 km/h), the 1,425-mile (2,293 km) route now takes eight hours to complete;

New York to Los Angeles : 2775 miles. Or double the above line. 16 HOURS via High-Speed train. 16 HOURS.

As a point of reference flight time is 6 hours. (Not counting being at the airport 2 hours early, etc.) - so lets just say ~9 hours for a plane. So a plane is twice as fast; but with significantly less capacity.

The press release hints strongly at their toolkit:

> improbably successful trading

Even before considering trading volume they can look at in-the-money trades as a proportion of total trades. Then I expect they would look at smaller denominators to see if timing correlated with the announcement cycle. The use of short-selling would have made it (relatively) easier still to pick up: assuming the company was ~200MM market cap at the end of 2014, of which 28% was held by management and their strategic shareholder [proxy statement 20150417], borrow could have been expensive enough to limit the holding periods of short trades.

As you and other commenters have pointed out, simple screens can indeed be effective. A short-term, infrequent trader (or small group of traders assuming, um, collusion) with a high win rate and presumably high risk-adjusted return would stick out.

This doesn't stop companies and many individuals calling HTTPS "secure".
It's not a powerloss but voltage goes down. Modern VRMs can also signal their power capabilies and reserves.

If the CPU draws more current than the VRM can handle, this is usually okay within bounds for a very short time, after than you'll get dropping voltage when the VRM starts to self regulate and the CPU will downclock in response.

And you can do that in a monorepo. But realistically, there are plenty of trivial breaking changes (renaming Foo to FooX) that don't warrant that effort, and so usually don't get done outside of monorepos.

You should apply care when making breaking changes. Having it be hard is a separate issue - I'd say distractions from multi repo tooling would introduce more risks overall. Having a unified CI system in a monorepo is really nice.

China’s WoSign CA Found to Threaten Users of Let’s Encrypt CA
Teleportation isn't very concerning to me, because it's basically against known physic rules for now on. Theoretically I would be very wary of teleportation, on a pragmatic level: if I don't own the teleportation process on an extreme level then there's too much risk to be altered in some (maybe dramatic) way.

However, there's a variant that sucks my thoughts sometimes: what about transferring a full brain's backup into a valid recipient?

Classical application would be life extension: going into a "blank" body/brain (or big enough computer) when mine is too old to carry on. It's still very inconceivable nowadays, but much more attainable than teleportation I think.

You can't "switch off" the old brain, copy it, and "switch on" the new one, because that would pose the same questions as teleportation. Neither I wouldn't start a copy process, wait for it to complete, commit suicide and set alive the new body/brain in the same time.

The obvious solution would be to find a way to connect two brains (be it an organically or computerized brain), extend the thought in such a way that there would be full redundancy of memories between the two devices, and the switch off the old one.

I guess I read too much hard sci-fi :)

The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Real-Time Analytics
Not the poster above, but I will try a short explanation.
You see an object, because light goes from its surface (either emitted or reflected ambient light) to your eyes. You see it in 3 dimensions, because the light differs by the viewing angle. Holography is a technology of recording the light "emitted" by the object. The light has to be recorded in direction and intensity. This is done via interference between the object light (waves) and a reference light wave, which usually is a planar wave of light.

This interference creates an interference pattern, which can be recorded by film. The trick is, that if you develop the film to get the black and white pattern, you can shine the reference wave onto the film and it interacts with the interference pattern such that the object wave is reconstructed. A hologram such is an exact recording of the light emitted by the object. This is something the display tries to emulate by offering 64 different images, but not quite the same. As the interference pattern is just a greyscale image, one could use an ultra-high resolution lcd display to synthesize that - there have been demonstrators of that, but I am not aware of a large holographic display so far.
Apple hardware is good-ish. For proof you should look at the equivalent laptops from Dell etc and notice that they are cheaper, but not by much. Beyond superior? Nope. They still have better screens (colors not number of pixels!) and faster storage, but that's about it. And they fucked up the keyboards lately.

The one thing that makes Apple crap still superior is the HW/OS integration. I switched from Linux to OS X because of that, not the actual hardware.

Back to the power something, I do custom embedded Linux-es for a living. I still would like my base OS to "just work". <Cough> systemd... can't trust Linux any more.

I've not got any experience with Zotero, but I do with Mendeley. Unfortunately, the apps you've linked above suffer the same issues as many OSS alternatives to commercial software. For a start, the reviews on the Mendeley client [0] are far better than any of the three alternatives you've provided. All three of them have the same complaints - Functionality/UI leave a lot to be desired. My experience of this fragmentation (KeePass) is you have N clients which offer slightly different features, but none of them offer the same features that the commercial offering offers, meaning people who rely on one or more of the specific features of the commercial offering will never switch.

Humans are not a violent species by any measure. Humans have evolved to produce social structures that mitigate the need for violence in all circumstances.

When you talk about violence being a positivie in solving a bank robberies, you should be talking about how to prevent bank robberies in the first place, rather than designing a solution that presumes the robbery is going to happen no matter what.

Violence has no place in human society, and we have appropriate solutions in place if a human wants to express similar emotions to violence (eg by playing sport, video games etc) that have net positive effects on society.

Just keep your routers and printers in the DNS. Or someone, such as your printer/router vendor, can do it for you.

If you are talking about networks that are air gapped from the internet, you would have a problem anyway with the short letsencrypt expiration times, and you will in any case need to do all kinds of hoops that are bigger problems than installing a local CA or settling for a "insecure" browser warning.

Most of the things I learned at school I forgot; all the math and so that I never need in my life. More than half of the curriculum is just rubbish for our brains IMAO.

Maybe this helps to start making compulsive education more pragmatic. At this moment I see kids coming from school knowing how to do advance math they'll never ever need. But basic knowledge about what is healthy food or not, or knowing how the industry is poisoning almost anything you can buy in the supermarket, they have no clue.. And I believe knowing those things do matter for our brain, we would not easily forget.

You are right but when the protocol name says 'Secure' right in its name, no wonder people market it as 'Secure'.
As soon as you discard someone as such, you're just basically just consigning them to do even more of the same. Why even bother trying change if you are actively expected to not do any better?

It's refreshing to see a viewpoint that doesn't jump straight to throwing bad guys to the wolves.
