What do we do when the 1 out of 100th conspiracy theory turns out to be true?

Just months ago there were massive conspiracy theorizing about the first lady's absence over a period of days. Should that discussion have just been shut down?

It's not a clear judgment call, even for one person, for what to allow and what not to allow. That's the problem.

True, not innocuous. An interview tests you. But walking out because of that question? Come up with a canned answer. You like spelunking.

After all this, I am genuinely curious of your hobbies.
I am more of center and care about right-leaning issues. At least, I want to be informed. So I follow not only tech leaders but also other right-leaning leaders too.

And when I say tech leaders, they may not be celebrities like Mark or Jack but they are still leaders in their smaller communities. I am talking about developers who built frameworks, people from here, and other communities like Indie Hackers etc.

I won't out anyone but one example is some these leaders were complaining about lack of coverage on CNN of Hamas firing rockets into Israel. Of course, CNN covered it and many people refuted them by posting links/screenshots. But these same leaders have never complained about lack of coverage on Fox/CNN when Muslims or other minorities are victims.
Proving what? You essentially claimed no one was interested in it because there were better alternatives. You're providing evidence against your own claim here.
Interesting. I guess that in real life both of those questions would be considered rude. The first as "too little effort and overly bossy", the second as an obvious ridicule.

> 1. SLD introduced no social programs when it ruled (PIS introduced 3 already and promises more)

What about miners pensions? Of course you can't compare both of those parties because budgets and economy was a lot different then and Poland just entered to EU when they were ending their cadence.

Anyway, you now wrote what SLD did when they ruled but in original post you wrote:

PIS is the only economically socialist party in Poland right now, emphasis on right now. You should check current political programs of SLD and Partia Razem. They are more economically socialist than PIS.

> Less than 3% of support.

That doesn't make what I wrote any less true. It's like saying that gay people do not exists because there is only couple of percentage of them in society.

> But how do you call a right-wing nationalist party that is economically socialist?

conservative-socialist ?
I'm not the author (he'll probably comment here in a sec), but if this is a problem, perhaps this project could become a patch to git itself.

I'd be fine running a patched git that knows about bugs. Of course, then I'd want to make it a little more generic, and not care whether I was dealing with an issue tracker, a wiki, etc.
It's more of an extra address bit and processor mode. It doesn't have related instructions like TXT and SGX, but instead is structured more like a hypervisor.

I should have grown out of it by now, but I still dream of a Star Trek future, and I've developed a guideline (mostly in jest) for how I think about systems. It goes something like this: if the starship Enterprise turns out to run Linux, or windows, or the driver I work on, or Electron, or whatever I have in mind, and all the problems we see now show up on the monitors on the bridge, how would I feel about that?

Sometimes it's ok, sometimes it's not. I tend to wish that we could get a lot better at building systems, but that involves a number of difficult problems that people far smarter than I have been thinking about for far longer than I've been alive.

The future in my head doesn't have so many systems developed by accretion, but maybe that's how it has to be (for now).

Apple has a track record of successfully transitioning to a new architecture, they have done it several times. Not only that but they already produce ARM based devices.

And nobody wants a stripped-down, locked-down version of MacOS-Lite

Yet in iOS that is exactly what Apple sells the most.
Check out what the ME disable stuff does. It just removes some of the binaries from the thing's uKernel that are the non boot services. The ME is required for system bringup.

> However, while Intel ME can't be turned off completely, it is still possible to modify its firmware up to a point where Intel ME is active only during the boot process, effectively disabling it during the normal operation, which is what me_cleaner tries to accomplish.

https://github.com/corna/me_cleaner

EDIT: Also, the ME is inside the PCH, so I'm not really sure why you're making a distinction there.
Could that do the voice recognition functions? The Apple-CAT II sounds like a conventional modem.

I think the unique thing about this IBM sound cards is that it had a programmable DSP which made it much more flexible.

Agreed, add a barrier. I have been tempted to retweet false tweets too cause they enrage you and you want to do something. But I had a rule, never retweet a tweet within an hour of reading it.

I don't think these people really go out of their way, but when they see something that confirms their preexisting biases, they are tempted to retweet immediately.
Is it a fact that X is "smaller" than Wayland, and more resource efficient?

X was designed with far more ambitious goals than Wayland, so it's not a foregone conclusion that it's "smaller" (implying cheaper) just because it's older.
> Just make college free. Trying to make all of these complicated rules to make sure that a few people aren't "getting one over us" is just making more cracks for people to fall into.

Presumably you mean, increase taxes so we can pay for everyone to go to college? Not everyone wants to go to college. Your proposition means that those people are getting the shaft.
Not sure why you're talking about RLE and Gators as I was only talking about compact tractors.

You could say the same think about Kubota as the assemble their B/BX models in the US(they however don't outsource the engine).

There's nothing wrong with sourcing an engine/design from another company, however if you do that's definitely not something made completely in America. JD likes to play this up heavily in their marketing and honestly I find it to be a bit disingenuous.

Where's the proof that would work? The auto industry has kept virtually all new competitors out of the market for the past 100 years.

Either do reality checking every day for an hour or so, or lay down, relax, and don't move for 5 hours while staying awake.

Keeping a dream journal will make the above less necessary.

I find my "bandwidth" limited during lucid dreams - I can't explore wide open spaces and if I look at details, I am prone to waking up. I never found the "just like being awake and being there" trope to be true. I spent a lot of time on detailed lucid dreaming - mainly, I wanted to test OBEs, so I would have an "OBE" and go to a place I have never been, but could check later, like a neighbor's house, or a store. It would always be absurd and "poorly rendered", nor would it match, when I checked it later irl (what a surprise).
All valid points which I too am pondering on but don't have clear answers.

I checked your profile but couldn't find an email to contact you. I'd love to discuss details once I have written down my thoughts.
Indeed, many do advocate that paying for the roads you drive on through tolls would be a much better system. I don't think it's unreasonable to not want to subsidize certain fields of study with public money.

In the past, when a smaller percentage of people were "educated" the marginal value of educating an extra member of society was very high. It seems much lower to me now that information is cheap and freely available.

How far back are you going?

Although nations were a little different to what we now know, I couldn't conceive of calling the hundred years war (1350s - 1450s) a petty dispute between individuals and their friends.

Millions of arrows, tens of thousands of longbowmen, requirement for all males to train with the bow from youth, mass production of arrows all across the kingdom (and they were used in massive numbers). Looks rather like total war, just on a smaller scale. The cavalry (knights) were there in smaller numbers and from the nobility, much as armour is there in smaller numbers to infantry today. The requirement to train, and that everyone be armed meant revolts such as the peasant's revolt were surprisingly well armed.

That, of course, completely ignores the navy of a mainly seafaring nation. Though the standing navy with all its trappings didn't come in until Henry VIII

The shape of wars though would still be recognisable today.
Yes. That's not what defines it.
I was actually being sarcastic. To me this is all lip service.

Arm sells barebones CPU cores which can be used to create more complex processors like complete SoCs. When I mean barebones, I mean the traditional core with branch predictors, instruction fetchers, writebacks, etc.

Intel and AMD sell an entire System-on-a-Chip disguised as a CPU processor. Their CPU is much more than a CPU core: they contain an entire system in there.

If you want to make a comparison, it is more correct to compare the Snapdragon and the Exynos chips to the off-the-shelves CPUs that Intel and AMD sell.

Arm only sells technologies that enable other companies to create a final product, it doesn't impose those kind of "management systems" and binary blobs.
Practical depends on how you end up using the knowledge right? For people into protocol development/exploitation it was a valuable course which taught many fundamentals of discovering cryptographic operational methods, flaws, procedures, and how to design or fix. The reason you always hear people say "never roll your own crypto" is because this is a difficult subject matter, but is necessary if you're trying to build a properly secure cryptographic schema.
Website trolling tool bypass frame origin
It's hard to glean from the information given whether the Googler was so intent in the red book (Skiena, Algorithm Design Manual) that he required interviewees to be able to quote verbatim or just expected a certain knowledge of algorithms (for which a number of books would suffice, but Skiena really is a great resource for).
Fun math and physics visualizations by Eugene Khutoryansky
X is much larger than Wayland in the same way that OpenGL is much larger than Vulkan.

The older protocols tried to encode way too much framework-like application implementation details which turned out to be a mistake. And in both cases, the framework layers (GUI toolkits, game engines) ended up reimplementing most of that logic but better, leading to lots of unused cruft and problematic architecture in the lower layer.

Maybe I’ve been hiding under a rock or something but I don’t think I’ve heard of Lubuntu before. I took a quick look at the home page but still: when this and not some other distribution?
Maybe. Traditionally it's hard for companies to compete with much cheaper but slightly less performant rivals. That's the whole idea behind "Disruptive Innovation." When x86 came out it was the cheap knockoff that everybody could afford and it eventually ended up eating it's way into workstations and servers as its scale let it pour more engineering resources in. ARM may be achieving that sort of scale advantage over x86 but its fragmented nature makes the story more complex.

I'm not sure that type of marketing will happen again though. Since then, computers have gone further down the path of being an appliance. What's inside matters less than what it can do. If Apple releases a MacBook with 1-5 days of battery life, no one will care what's inside.

When you're as jaded as I am, names like customerList don't indicate anything. That could be a list of customers, or a list from the customer, or a list that used to have customers and now has god knows what. But if you gave all your variables really long names, now everything either scrolls off the side of the screen or takes multiple lines and I can't see anything.
it used to be aimed at 10 years old hardware. Now its less clear, they just changed their positionning a few months ago
No, it is not licensed from Arm. AMD's PSP is a system built by AMD itself, it just happened for them to buy Arm cores to build their system.

They could have used MIPS, PowerPC or any other CPU cores for PSP, they just decided to go with Arm.
That is a feature (in my book). Search for The Mythical Man-Month tells me that the book is recommended by Marc Benioff, Joel Spolsky and Jeff Atwood. That is valuable information for me and tells me that I should read the book as soon as possible : )

I agree on smile.amazon.com.
It's not really that terrible of a concept -- some of the earliest high-level languages (e.g., COBOL) were designed to be "readable" by less-technical staff. It just requires careful design and structure.

IMO, it only falls apart (and becomes such a nightmare) because of the imprecision of spoken & written word. Computers don't understand idioms, colloquialisms, and the like, and so non-technical staff are tricked into thinking a language/program can do more than it actually can do.
The closest thing I can think of would be Algorithmic Information Theory[1]. Marcus Hutter has done some work with that vis-a-vis Artificial Intelligence[2][3][4]. And while it's not quite the same thing, you might find Pei Wang's NARS[5] approach of interest.

My experience was in 2006 and the 2009 article feels very familiar. I accept that they can't control how long French authorities take to grant people transit visas but they could definitely do a better job of communicating and making sure passengers are comfortable in the meanwhile.

I've boycotted Air France ever since.
If you have a Western passport you can generally transit through for 72/144 hours without any problems.
I used an ARM Chromebook with Linux installed for about 2 years. YMMV, but VLC seemed to not work anywhere near as well as it does on the x86 (in terms of playback and codec availability).

Good battery life though.
If the land was stolen, then it's indefensible. Or should we have a separate moral code?
From: https://www.tsa.gov/tsa-precheck/eligibility

"The TSA Pre® program membership is open to U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents."

seems reasonable.
Perhaps, but these are the same folks (for political reasons) who can no longer build a workstation tower or laptop for "professionals." If it wasn't for the iPhone rocketship business they'd be dead.

Imagine if Dell didn't have a competitive workstation/pro laptop in the lineup for five years.
If you have the commit hash of the commit(s) introducing the bug, the it's a simple matter of seeing if that commit is an ancestor of any commit (or branch) you're interested in. Similarly, once fixed, it's just a matter of seeing if the fix is an ancestor of the interested branch/tag/commit. (Not saying that this tool couldn't or shouldn't, just simply that this should be very doable within git, I think.)

I imagine the most difficult part of this is just getting the data collected. Even with git-bisect, I very rarely find myself looking for the point of introduction, and instead just fixing the bug.
It’s much easier and feasible to give back artwork. It’s not like millions of people living in the Great Plains are going to be able/willing to move so that we can give the land back to the original tribes. It’s reasonable to consider keeping artwork as indefensible whilst acknowledging the impracticality of giving back land.

Genghis Khan's (as well as his son Ogedai) success is largely due to his lead general Subutai. The guy managed to swallow most of Asia, including the (until then) unconquerable Afghanistan and Russia (in the winter!).

He also destroyed the armies of both Hungary and Poland within 2 days of each other, over 500 kms apart. He was a gifted strategist apparently known for being able to coordinate multiple armies simultaneously and adapting his strategies to the opponent and terrain constantly. Certainly worthy of Hannibal, Vercingetorix et al.

OpenBSD, SpamPD and the Startup Bug
I think it would too.

I've had both a Chromebook and most recently and Android tablet with a magnetically attached keyboard, and it's great as a "I don't quite feel like bringing my proper laptop" device crossing over to a tablet, and it fits in my coat pockets.

It's a bit on the heavy side, but have pretty much supplanted my Android tablet. The Chromebook had a similar position, but then I still ended up bringing my (smaller) tablet with me.

For me at least it will never supplant a "proper" laptop because I want a full size keyboard and a much bigger screen, but it's a great complement for travels and meetings etc. or just to bring along in case of emergency.
