What the parent comment is referring to is the oft claimed reason for Disney lobbying for extensions to the duration of copyright law: that they do so every time the copyright on the original Mickey Mouse cartoons is about to expire to prevent them from entering the public domain. This explanation doesn't really hold up under scrutiny as the important part of Mickey Mouse is the trademark, which doesn't expire, not the original cartoons and I somehow doubt the requirement for active defense of trademarks includes lobbying for the continued protection of the source material it was derived from.

Why haven't we started calling out this racism and shunning it? It's better if everyone is on the same page for spiciness levels and judging peoples' tastes based on their skin color is inaccurate and offensive.
Then you'd never get anything done and spend hours saying

"Wow!"
Those sound like they'll be more like the responsibility of the terminal emulator, unfortunately.

Windows console applications aren't really able to live without being attached to a console. Now, a terminal might be able to implement those features...

actually now you've got me thinking. I'll play around with that idea. Definitely non-committal, but it might be possible in the future.
One could probably use some crypto to not even require any "we're not recording that", e.g. let the user use a ring signature (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_signature) which could have been produced by any of the people registering a work address.

You should probably put in some extra work to make sure that people really are anonymous, e.g. you could make the Blind server a Tor hidden service, forcing people to connect to it using Tor and therefore not revealing their IP address. Basically making sure that Blind is not even accidentally exposed to any personally identifiable information.
>Personally, I view this as a distinct upgrade. Instead of being coerced into lots of interaction with people I may have nothing in common with except vague geographical proximity, I have the option of interacting with people who actually share my interests or concerns or hobbies.
To me, this isn't isolated loners. It's the first real community I've ever known. The first one I've ever actually felt like I was a part of, where I was always welcome and could always rely on finding people like me.

Apologies, but I don't agree that's nearly sufficient enough an "ontology", in the philosophical sense if you will, of community. You are involved in a community the moment you hear someone screaming out for help nearby; you are involved in a community when you're one of those scmucks stuck communicating to work in a packed trainer in the morning, you're involved in a community when you respond to the presence of minorities or certain of other races in a manner which may make them uncomfortable (100% not alleging a thing btw, most certainly not the point right now); you clearly join a community when you join the military, but you have, for better or for worse, shockingly few rights and freedoms therein.

My point is that, for human beings, we are by definition, as social animals, involved in a community some way, some how, because we inherently respond to one another's presence, even when that response is indifference (perhaps in the face of someone screaming out for help nearby). This is almost, for myself, the entire lesson of watching Mister Rogers (if you're an America, I don't know if you are).

Choosing a community for yourself, therefore, shouldn't be a reprieve, relief, or, worse case, a retreat from those other communities you're involved in, like your neighborhood or family. We all may have run into that person who appeared to us to be way too chatty and friendly in some public space that we were constrained to, say, the train; they're just answering to their involvement in a different way.
Either way, the decision to (usually wrongly) believe that writing it all yourself is easier/better has little to do with flow.

when you have strong information asymmetry between purchaser and seller the market can become unsafe. These information asymmetries occur in highly specialized areas like...medicine where it is extremely difficult if not impossible for the consumer to be able to judge what is best. Which is why regulation is good and useful. It recognizes that we can not all be expert in all areas.

First off, it is not a single instance, but many sqlite databases. Many wich has 20+ TiBs of data.

For the last 10+ years I have worked at a backup company and we had gone threw some iterations of storage backends, including a inhoues system that fell on its face. So far the only thing that has been able to keep up with our demands has been Sqlite, although there have been some hurdles.

Because of how we want isolation between users having any sort of shared database system really is not a option. And in the early days our users liked the idea of simply copying a users dataset and sending it some place else.

In any case we tested, I should say a guy named Brain on our team tested many different systems and ended up picking Sqlite many years ago. It has stuck and served us very very well. It was not until we wanted to access the data in different ways that we ran into concurrency issues and made a few weird decisions on how to access the data to avoid some of these problems.

These databases store the volume data for each volume we back up. And because it is a database we can track the blocks in such a way that allows us to present a consistent view of each backup in time. And it has been good enough to be able to export volumes as iscsi luns (custom iscsi server I wrote to interface when the backend), and in turn allow us to virtualize peoples systems we backed up on the fly without moving data from one format to another.

Now that I think about it ~7PB is only half of it, that is just the data we have managed by our hardware. We have many other people storing just as much if not more on their systems.

Looking on my original comment it may seem like I implied that we have a single 7PB database, but no, it is 1000s of smaller ones between 8 and 30TiB in most cases.

Have we had data loss? yes, but it was mostly to improperly using sqlite. Except one occasion which we were sure it was sqlite itself, which I am sure Mr. Hipp will refute :p, but I forget the details and a fix was applied quickly.

Sqlite is nice, and I would recommend it to anybody for just about any use, even uses you might have not considered for a embedded database.
It's a few hundred lines of very ugly PHP, at a minimum I would have to do some housecleaning before posting the code and there is no upside for me, it was - and is - throwaway code and I can't wait until we have a viable replacement so I can kill it.

Side note: it uses a bunch of keyboard short-cuts to rearrange the tree by moving nodes around and JS absolutely sucks are reliably capturing ctrl-key combinations. Highly frustrating.

Long story short (and without the code):

The application presents a tree to the user, parts of which can be copied, each node in the tree is internally referenced by an ID which allows for multiple nodes having the same name attribute. Besides the name attribute there are tags, source (handy to keep track of where you found stuff), an answer to the question associated with that node, an advisory and a bunch of flags and priorities.

The layout is three panes, a top one with some links for commonly used functions and a search bar, the left hand side gives the tree and the present location in the tree and the right hand side shows all the attributes of the current node.

It features import and export in XML format of the whole tree or parts of it, the ability to attach pdfs and images to nodes (the images are shown inline in the parent node), to attach notes to nodes and to export to a different editor for report writing purposes (usually open office).
That presumes flavor and longevity are mutually exclusive.
I read out the constants from the ROM earlier and it was just a normal ROM, so I was skeptical about your comment. But what do you know, I just took a closer look at the microcode ROM and there are indeed 4 different transistor sizes! I hadn't even noticed, so thanks for mentioning this.

This will be annoying if I try to visually read out the microcode values since I'll need to examine each transistor closely. It was quick to read out the constant ROM since I just needed to glance to see if a transistor was present or not.

Here's a photo of a 7x5 region of the microcode ROM to help the discussion. The transistors (representing bits) are where the vertical polysilicon lines cross the pinkish doped silicon. Note that the "neck" is full-width, narrowed, very narrow, or entirely gone (no transistor), corresponding to the 4 values.

You are correct in your write-up though. Wikipedia titles are super helpful, where they exist.
The brothers Grimm just wrote them down, old ladies told the stories. So they were in the public domain long before the Grimm brothers got involved. I still have the original German edition of the book somewhere in storage, the engravings with some of the stories gave me the shudders as a young child, and the stories are pretty grisly too.
You can keep your single family home.

What I want is for every major city to have a singular 1 square mile area, with zero building height limits, so that people who want to build tall building on their own property, are allowed to do so.

There is more than enough room in Seattle that is already allocated to single family homes. Now let's pick an area, and get rid of all zoning limits in that singular area.
Assuming you use water-based sauces and mostly pre-ground spices, the easiest way to fix the spice issue would be just to put all of the spicy ingredients in a separate container and let customers add those in at their discretion. For most dishes there's just a few ingredients that are really spicy, and the recipe would probably survive without them.

This way it's a continuum instead of just a binary choice.
If you have any questions, leave it here below. We will respond to every comment.
Your list strikes me as significantly more than a typical master's degree would cover.
I doubt you can get two crypto enthusiasts to agree on a common plan.

But, more significantly, a "crypto utopia", when realised in an actual, physical, location, also needs to be a "non-crypto utopia", i. e. a functioning, equitable society.

Both the randomness of the process that led to the current crop of crypto-tycoons, as well as the nonrandom factors that mattered make me think this experiment will suffer some well-known social problems and end far before having the chance to fail for entirely new, exciting reasons.
They're pretty versatile too if you are good with them. You can easily sculpt wood with them and as long as you keep them sharp they are reasonably safe but you really should always wear ballistic clothing and a helmet.

If it’s like the OMSCS they cover lots of topics that are covered in anundergrad but the marking scheme is that an undergrad A guarantees you’ll pass and if you want an actual A on the course you’ll have to work harder. Any OMSCS grads feel like (dis)confirming?

If I could show that YouTube channels are being banned from expressing certain political views, would you agree that Google has too much power and censors too much? Consider this recent example then:

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-03-21/youtube-b...

Perhaps you will say that "instructions on how to assemble firearms" is not an expression of a political view, however I would argue that preventing people from imparting legal factual information to help other people exercise a constitutional right seems like something that, if the government were to do it, would be a breach of their First Amendment rights.

So as not to be seen to be taking a specific view on "gun rights", let me give a different (hypothetical, and non-equivalent) situation to clarify what we mean by "banned for political views alone" here.

Suppose that Google had different politics and decided to ban channels that provided assistance to women seeking an abortion. Perhaps Google would allow channels to advocate, in the abstract, for "abortion rights", but not to give any practical advice on how to exercise them. I think that most people would agree that this would count as unconstitutional "viewpoint discrimination" if the government were to do it, so it is effectively a "ban for political views/expression" if Google do it as a private corporation.
This is likely a big part of it, as the OP has indicated elsethread that a table of log constants are used by the 8087 for calculating logarithms and exponentiations.

Why are some people in coma declared dead and others kept alive? Have people ever "recovered" from coma? Is it a question of permission from next of kin to keep the patient alive? Or does it boil down to a financial question?
Has anyone used this, org-mode or other literate programming tools for a full team project at scale (whatever that means, non-trivial multiple months, lots of code)? Did the team have to buy in or were they already users? How did it go- did it improve.

I've used org-mode for about a year and a half and have found it helpful to to my productivity and feeling put together. I can see the potential for benefits to a team, but not many people want to learn emacs for a job if they don't already use it.
FWIW, your blog is amazing. I really like the links you provide in the footnotes for additional information.
De Broglie-Bohm is probably not the correct theory, since (if I am not mistaken) it's not reconcilable with relativity, and has a host of other problems which led its original proponents to abandon it.

Copenhagen is also probably not correct, though it is still frustratingly mainstream. Copenhagen has the well known problem of lacking a physical definition of "observer", but it also has conflicts with delayed choice quantum eraser experiments (which suggest that the wavefunction never collapses), and contradictions that arise when you try to locate the proposed wave collapse in spacetime.

The Everett many-worlds interpretation is gaining favor, and has none of the problems of the other two pictures. In the Everett view, scientists and experiments and instruments and universes are ensembles of particles like any other, and enter superpositions upon interacting with other systems in superposition. In a sense, every possible outcome of a quantum measurement actually happens in due proportion to the probabilities described by quantum mechanics, but upon becoming entangled with the experiment result, the different outcomes can no longer influence or measure each other. It is the most ontologically minimal theory, since it proposes no other events or laws beyond the already-known laws of quantum mechanics.

I honestly think that, at this point, it's often a matter of taste, rather than technical. What tool do you think will make you more productive and interested in the project?

I personally don't think there's anything wrong at all with using c++11 (or any version) on devices like this, so long as the compiler you need to use provides a stable implementation of it. The new language features of c++11, like constexpr and move semantics, and the static meta-programming contraptions that are readily at hand in the STL can all be very helpful to create manageable and fast embedded systems.

Though it usually isn't a free for all. These things are commonly avoided:

* Exceptions (in many cases this alters the call-return sequence, which can increase code size, and add overhead that may not be acceptable)

* Most of the STL (because either a feature requires exceptions to use safely--like containers, or perhaps because the feature doesn't fit into your code section, or just takes up too much of it to be worthwhile)

* RTTI (which can increase the size of a vtable)

The properties may not be being rented. Due to data that showed a notable amount of vacant properties Vancouver, another area with high amounts of foreign capital infusion enacted a vacant property tax.

Even if these properties are being rented out, persons with foreign capital buying power that exceeds that of locals have a distortionary and, from the point of view of a local, a negative impact on the real estate market, as they are able to out compete locals and bid up the price of housing. A person which may have normally been able to buy a home can no longer buy, and now has to devote more of their income to renting from a foreigner. Why would any local support this state of affairs?

At a high level "skin in the game" means involvement and having some commitment. That can mean monetary involvement or otherwise and I'd use the broader definition. An absentee foreign buyer has tenuous involvement in a city beyond the impact of their foreign capital. Sure they've risked their capital on an investment, but from a locals point of view they have no real personal stake in the community.
Or maybe it was the underwear bomber. Not sure. Point stands regardless which one, and I'm on mobile. You'll find it, if you're interested and look.
I propose Banksy (Or another artist who can charge top dollar) create a series of images. These would go from regular mouse and slowly each one would be slightly more anthropomorphic and closer to Micky Mouse but never exact. Each would be sold for $300k to cover the copyright infringement fine and lawyer fees for the piece. Each one is sold only once so is a single instance of infringement possibly. See which ones Disney can win and which they can't.

Precisely because the war wasn't finished... political pressure led to the military being recalled and this is the outcome. Rebuilding a nation does not just happen in a few months, it takes decades of peace. The biggest problem is the lack of commitment, due in part to a public that has lost touch with what conflict is and the will it takes to fight.

I have a CO2 monitor, and I can confirm that it goes up at least that fast in my home. I can't speak for submarines or healthy levels. I've been wondering for a while why environmental rhetoric only talks about the global rise in CO2 in terms that make people think it's just an atmospheric phenomenon rather than notably changing what they're breathing. It looks like we've nearly doubled the CO2 we're breathing in the past couple centuries, not including our more sealed up lifestyle.
