There's another addendum to this: an another issue that is incredibly relevant to software per se.

Most of the time when we build software, the only source of truth, that defines the way a given software must behave - is it's own source code.

Thus even when we can prove for sure, that the source code that is being executed is the source code we had just written - we might be missing the cases when we were the ones responsible for introducing the behaviour that we ourselves had not expected.

I think the only way to fix that is to introduce even more constraints on the already built system.

We use exactly the same mechanics in out legal systems: while there's a single source of truth for most of the laws - there's always the court that checks every single day, if these laws still hold true for a given moment in time, or if they hold true for a given specific scenario.

I believe a set of closed-source tests provided by different providers for open-sources software, for example - could work really well. E.G. every time you push a new commit to nginx repository - there's organisations A, B and C which would also report their independent findings on the possible exploitation of the new code.

Those findings do not need to be aiming for the same bugs. One of them might be more people-oriented, and another one would be incredibly technical, reaching for the bugs that happen due to compiler design.
One of the process types etches material from the wafer surface (we are talking about a material layer thickness measured in atoms). If the etching is not stopped or quenched in time due to a control system failure, the wafer is 'over etched' and unrecoverable.

One former employer, a semi equipment company, had a weekly Monday Morning 'Crash Report'. Our tools performed a wet chemistry etch step on 25 wafers at at time. If the control system failed, the entire lot was in peril. So Monday AM, we'd hear from the CEO which fab managers had called him over the weekend, screaming about the value of the wafers our tools had destroyed. Usually in the $50,000 - $250,000 range. Fun times.
Your 'but' makes it seem likes there's going to be an argument against your first point, but it just enforces it.

Should be an 'and'.
After reading the article, I came to a different conclusion- that the lawyer writing the article would consider LegalZoom to be AI.

That being said, for many lawyers, the difference is probably indiscernible - too many are stuck in the dark ages.

We fired our corporate lawyer earlier his year because the focus seemed to be on billing hours not solving problems. We found a better and cheaper lawyer who isn’t afraid of piecing together boilerplate to create a rough draft is a short period of time - our previous one had hand written it!!! Insanity.
Not that I've seen. Everything I've seen from Google says that AMP has no bearing on rankings. If there's stuff published by Google, or quotes directly from Google people working on AMP, that say differently, I'd love to see it.

haveibeenpwned provides no such statistic, other than reuse (75% of original set) -- a breached password is unrelated to its strength.

The simple fact that the HIBP password list contains 512 MILLION unique passwords...
Even if encryption isn't worth it, the access controls it gives you are to most access point owners. By limiting who can connect an owner can reduce bandwidth usage, improve latency, and increase the quality of their connection.

Not to mention that most protocols in current use at minimum leak metadata. There would need to be a standard for an automatic authenticated VPN supported by hotspots and operating systems. Regular users shouldn't need to perform complex setup procedures.

And at that point, while I do like the seperation on concerns provided, why not just fix or replace WPA?

I'd suggest getting a good attorney to take a look at your current agreement (if you'd like, email me at username over at gmail, I have a good one).

From what you have said so far, I would suggest to you that the fact that "they are 6+ months out until they raise and they want you out now" is their problem, not yours.

If they fire you now, without cause, don't sign anything and keep the negotiation documents as proof that there is no cause. You keep your current stock and most importantly, your voting rights. Go find another job while you settle this whole matter. Talk to a lawyer and start to negotiate for what you want, not what will help them.

If they don't fire you, tell them what you want and see if they will give it to you. Let them know you are willing to align your goals with theirs but that you want to be appropriately compensated for your prior risk. Keep it pretty business like. If you get into a sticky situation, don't be ashamed to call in the attorneys to help. It's what they are there for.
Sabotage? probably highly likely. Even a power blip can scrap millions of dollars in product. You don't even have to hack a FAB, hack the local substation...hell hack the local airport or port and you can put them in discomfort.

Actual backdoor? almost impossible.

A backdoor would have to change the interconnections within the chips. That isn't a function performed by the FAB software. The design of the chip circuitry is designed much earlier. Once validated and released it is then laser / ion beam etched into a series of 'masks.' The mask represent the different layers of the chip that make up the interconnections. They are used in photolithography and are typically made elsewhere and then used thousands of times. Like a photo.

To put a backdoor in the chip you would have to, undetected, hack the design side of a chip company. And do it early enough that without being noticed the backdoor is created into the masks which then get built into all of the chips and still remain unnoticed.

It would be much easier to bribe a couple employees.

Edit: a simple analogy - lets say you hack my oven. You can burn my cake and undercook it and give me food poisoning. But you can't swap the salt for sugar in the pan unless you actually had physical access.
There’s XSLT Markdown to HTML converters out there. And while XSL isn’t XML, it is in every browser and available next to XML in near enough everything else.
Unfortunately the realities of supporting a biz app leaves you with little choice. Sure you can do pure JavaScript, and we continually try. However at some point when that customer running IE9 calls you about another UI issue, you have to admit that you’re just reinventing the wheel. jQuery and such frameworks have a place because they abstract a lot of conditional statements to handle different browser quirks away from you. The framework supports certain browsers and for the most part you can expect that the behavior will be relatively consistent across those browsers.

Meanwhile I can’t even get consistent event firing order between IE, Edge, and Chrome for key and mouse events on inputs.
Unions aren't for exercising the political will of workers?

They aren't a one-stop shop for the political will of workers. It's like how we have different restaurants for different kinds of food and different times of day.

China-censorship loving, military loving, and leftist Googlers all have some interests in common as working people; but the union would not function very well as a vehicle for those interests while simultaneously pushing the foreign policy goals of one or another of those groups.
> I then say clearly that I will remove 6 of the other cups and, to retain the mystery, will not reveal the prize

Do you say 'I will now remove 6 empty cups?', or is it believed that you removed 6 unmarked cups at random?
> It is/was on some (but not all) other platforms, but not on macOS.

I know why it's there. As I wrote in another post, this was a great choice in the 128KB/floppy days of the early macs. It no longer is - for the general user, on a computer (unlike a car) it feels like a distinction without a difference. The fact that it is consistent and based on consistent logic (albeit one that was prescribed 30 years ago) does not matter, IMO.

> Regarding the view state, Linux and Windows do this for the local machine, where as macOS does it for the directory.

I think you're rationalizing a poor design choice. For local files, the end result is mostly the same (except Linux preserves the directories mtime) -- as local files are rarely if ever accessed across the network by someone with write permissions for that directory. And those permissions often make it seam dysfunctional on a shared directory - you can't store settings, so it doesn't stay the same between visits.

How does your explanation sit with the fact that there's a way to disable this for network/remote directories, but not for local ones?

> and macOS has this as well via autofs if you want it -- it's built in

I'm aware that's a power-user preference, I couldn't figure out how to do it on the mac; I'll look up autofs permissions - any recommended documentation?
The Anaconda distribution's package/environment manager for Python (named conda) at one time used the picosat SAT solver for dependency resolution as well. I'm not certain they still do, they've removed blog entries etc. referring to it at some point.
Agree with this. DO NOT SIGN AWAY YOUR STOCK, even if they fire you. And talk to a lawyer. In fact, I wouldn't even communicate with them anymore past the initial stage without going through a lawyer (i.e. let him communicate for you). I also wouldn't quit, unless they fired me.

Depending on the jurisdiction you are in, and the equity percentage you own, you might have certain rights they can't ignore (or you could enforce / make their life hell). Investors generally don't like a murky balance sheet.

As you mention, binocular vision is lacking in a surprising number of people and until recently this was thought to be uncorrectable if not treated while the child was still young. That turned out to be not entirely accurate.

Those without binocular vision can have a fairly large range of non-specific symptoms and perception problems. There is an interesting discussion of the change in understanding in this link.

Interesting, thanks :-) either way, we’re all set to accelerate Python code on the GPU! Personally I intend to focus my efforts here rather than learning Julia.
I think they are probably just naturally (to them) trading a slight amount of potential energy (altitude) for increased velocity - after all they'd rather be one inch past your front wheel at the crossing point than one inch on the other side.
I expect that they will invest in Mill Computing which is designing a CPU which will be most likely faster than Xeon and uses 10x less power.
Not ferrying per se, but an interesting story of flying a Boeing 314 from Auckland to New York "the long way round" in December 1941, just after the Pearl Harbour attacks, with the challenges of refueling and avoiding the war, and without charts:

The original question asked about "closely packed, but uncompressed" blueberries. I think it's more reasonable to assume this means berries with a small amount of air between them (the state of blueberries as the writer was probably thinking of them), rather than a void-free blueberry mass, or blueberries with pockets of vacuum between them.

Damn - you bring up a good point. I wonder what a lawyer would say.

Taking your thought one more step, what happens to the data the store creates thru a facial recognition system tied to the footage? Is that covered? I don’t know, but there are thousands of further permutations on his thought. Another reason I hate the GDPR (great intent, horrible execution).

Maybe the most recent homebrew is better, but in my experience it is brittle, breaks often with underlying OS updates, occasionally has weird permission issues (heard that's solved now); I mentioned in another post it is close, but no cigar.

Part of ubuntu's and debian's "apt" magic is not just in the code; It's in the meticulous curation of the main repositories - which brew can't really compete with.
The article actually does explain it. The bruteforcing speed doesn't change at all, the same value (PMK) as before is being bruteforced. What changes is merely the approach to get it from the router - an attacker no longer needs to wait for a legitimate user to authenticate, they can ask the router themselves.
Some people commit crime because they have things biologically wrong with them. I'm not convinced they're anything but a minority. I think most offenders violent or not end up there because a series of bad decisions. I'd hope prisons could be placed to help put people on better paths. Paying extortion prices for email isn't helping them.
I'm asking about this specific engine - not PBR in general.
So far just one.
In the context of this debate it does not matter, whether it is emulator or simulator underneath.

What matters is, that you cannot run it on another OS, because Apple does not supply one. You cannot supply your own, because the emulator/simulator/whatever has to run Apple code inside, and you don't have permission to distribute it, even if you had the inclination to make your own emulator/simulator/whatever.

So OK, Microsoft made an agreement and can now provision iOS packages. They had to find a way to test-run them somehow, and their solution won't allow you to write against native frameworks, only against theirs, which they can run on their platform.
In that case it's still the capitalisation that is remarkably ill considered.

> P.s. the idea that legal costs only increase because clients value the work more is a red herring. The legal market is not truly a market as the buyers at a corporate level are other lawyers who are spending other people’s money (that of the shareholders).

That's true of all corporate officers. That's why companies put in place incentive structures that align workers' goals with the company's. The idea that in-house counsel are putting the abstract interests of outside counsel ahead of their personal interests in career progression, bonuses, etc., is a very odd one.

> But, your defence of the status quo is to be expected by someone who benefits from it being that way.

This trope ignores the realities of legal billing. There are enormous cost and efficiency pressures in the legal industry. Even for billable-hour matters, clients have a "soft cap" in mind and even the top firms write off 10-20% of billings as a result. Fixed-fee arrangements and hybrid arrangements are also routine. For example, many companies have arrangements where a firm will handle all of the company's litigation in a particular area, or certain portfolios of cases, for a fixed monthly fee. If I'm going to get, say, a million dollars a month to handle a case, regardless of hours, why won't I use some "legal AI" to minimize my investment? If I'm a plaintiff's lawyer, and work entirely on contingency, or doing fixed fee divorces, why wouldn't I leverage every AI tool available?

Your explanation is plausible for the guys billing hours defending Altria from tobacco litigation. But it's laughable as applied to the majority of lawyers.

Could machine learning mean the end of understanding in science?
Are there any devices with a built-in QR code reader? Android and iOS require a download. Not to mention Windows and Mac.

In the YouTube video he says:

"So here's why I did. It was a personal challenge. I stayed out here in this driveway and I practiced about 5 minutes every day. ... after 8 month it happened ... in two weeks he (the son) did something that took me 8 months to do".

Well, if you were serious about learning a skill you wouldn't just do one 5 minute session per day for eight months.

A more appropriate training regime would be way more intensive than one 5 minute session per day. Are we to believe he limited his son to one 5 minute session a day?

Do children really learn languages quicker than adults? By age 3, children will probably have words for almost everything. Babies might even say mama and dada by 6 months of age.

Children have several language learning advantages over adults: complete immersion; it is imperative they learn; effectively unlimited time; no responsibilities.

But, it takes them years to learn their native language to basic competency.

Compare: an English speaker can learn Afrikaans, Danish, Dutch, French, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Romanian, Spanish, or Swedish to General Professional Proficiency in Speaking and Reading in 600 hours carried out over 24 weeks (25hrs per week). Cantonese, Mandarin, Japanese, Korean, or Arabic will take 2200 hours over 88 weeks (25hrs per week).[1]

Is it easier for a child? Yeah probably, they don't even have to look after themselves.

If I could live as a child in a foreign language house in a foreign language city, with only two tasks: learn to speak and read the language to basic competency, and learn to ride a backwards bicycle, I'm firmly of the believe I could out pace the 95th percentile of children at both tasks.

As an aside, he says his son is the closest person to him genetically, but aren't his parents both equally as close to him genetically as his son?

Every year, there are a number of Kenn Borek planes, mostly Twin Otters, that need to be moved from the Arctic to the Antarctic and back. These planes mainly work out of McMurdo Station during the Austral summer, but McMurdo is far enough from the nearest civilisation (New Zealand) that the planes can't fly directly (nevermind that getting to NZ from Canada would be an epic by itself).

So, they fly the length of the Americas, hop over to the Antarctic Peninsula, and cross the continent over South Pole, to get to McMurdo. This all happens at about the earliest and latest in the summer when the planes can fly, so that puts them going through some pretty marginal conditions at South Pole in particular.

It's also very important that the crews bring "freshies" from South America or they may not be allowed in to the station at South Pole, where they're the first outsiders in ~9 months.
My father is a keen birdwatcher, and he told me that birds go low to the ground as a defence mechanism against birds of prey - the bird of prey cannot catch the swooping bird without crashing into the ground. I suppose they might do similar with cars and bikes if they feel threatened as an evolutionary misfiring.

Maybe the solution is to interview journalists like employees, journalists that can show examples of work that quoted sources accurately and completely combined with checking that source as a reference to see how they felt about the result should land you and the journalist in a good place. Align your interests. Good papers want good journalists that produce accurate content and can get sources, so do you.

This is very likely. There's also the chance they're taking advantage of some portion of the ground effect ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_effect_(aerodynamics) ), thereby allowing themselves to increase their speed even further.
Interesting point, although I can't say I ever managed to get on with anything in XCode I've certainly had some Linux native desktop dev struggles in the distant past.

I'm a Java dev mostly, so perhaps I'm insulated from such things by the JVM. So long as I can run Chrom[e|ium], Eclipse, Docker and a terminal with a bash shell I'm pretty content. Even with that small list I've got issues with keyboard input lagging in Chrome on MacOS and Docker performance is poor relative to Linux. iTerm is a thing of beauty though.

I've got a box running Wayland on Arch. Can't say I've noticed any differences as a user from X11, I'll have to look them up and see what I'd missed.
