> I use zsh daily but type `xonsh` any time I do something in the shell that would normally require a google.

Personally, I stopped using `jq` in favor of python oneliners, they a bit more verbose but also cross-compatible, works out of the box (not everyone has jq, but most of people have python (pre)installed on their machines) and it is easy to implement a oneliner, i.e.:

curl -X GET "https://httpbin.org/json" -H "Accept: application/json" | python -c 'import sys, json; print(json.load(sys.stdin)["slideshow"]["author"])'

Do xonsh helps you write a tar command without googling [0] or browsing a man?

Hurricanes transfer heat energy from the Tropics to the temperate North. Suppresion of them would cause the energy imbalance to build up, making the next storm worse. Directing the storms away ftom land would be safer.

Maybe this isn't what you meant, but it's not a thing in all fields in academia. Pure math for example is generally pretty careful about authorship, and so is cs theory, for the same reasons. Not coincidentally both fields use alphabetical author order instead of contributional.
I agree with some of his points, but I don't think they are design flaws. Firstly, the micro-switch buttons-- I fully expected those to be uncomfortable when I first saw the design concept. Using them as a space bar would really only be useful for programming without spaces. The function keys are also not important to me, so I plan to re-map them as additional space bars (fixing the issue of a narrow space bar). As for the display, it does look pretty ugly, but I don't this is a problem for a first product with other priorities. As for why it's there at all, I don't think its utility will be limited to displaying the key mapping; that's sort of the point, to make this keyboard hackable. I think it was a good decision to omit the escape key-- it's just not that common to use because it's difficult to reach. I'm not as familiar with Vi as I would like to be, but I would probably re-map escape even if there were an escape key. This keyboard definitely won't lack modifier options. Arrow keys suffer from the same problem, and any logical layout wastes space. As for home, end, page up, page down, etc... The placement of these keys is so variable between keyboards these days that I feel like some people would be unhappy with any placement. I probably would have preferred a more full keyboard layout, but I really don't think it's necessary given this level of flexibility, and spacing everything out like that is inefficient.

All that said, I do think some of these problems should be solved with time. For example, offering long key-caps to span the mod/space and fn switches. Offering a more cushioned hand rest would be nice if it's easy, but I would much rather let them focus on developing core functionality.

>it's hard to gauge opportunity cost, since architectures fade in and out of popularity and patterns succeed where the frameworks that introduced them fail.

It might be hard but it's also necessary. That's true for many other things that are hard.

What would the opposite be?

Have people adopting any new technology and losing several years of their lives studying a doomed fad because without evaluating its long term potential and opportunity cost because it's "hard" and "architectures fade in and out of popularity"?

Instead, we should encourage people to do the hard thing, and evaluate things that they intend to study and their opportunity cost before they devote any substantial time with them.

Some will still get it wrong and invest in the wrong tech, but overall doing due diligence before jumping in will be better than just blindly going for whatever catches their fancy or is hyped.

>I doubt Rob Pike and Ken Thompson would give up the experience of writing Plan 9; its lessons persist in Go and other systems they've designed.

That was their job and they were paid for it. And Plan9 was also their own creation and original research.

That's not the same as some third party devoting themselves to a new technology just because it looks cool, it's hyped at the moment, etc.

Has anyone made fluid dynamics sailing game yet?

You would need only two controls, trim and rudder (direction instead rudder might be easier to comprehend). Wrong trim and point of sail could broache or even capsize the boat. Oh, and you could add not just the winds but the sea currents and waves also.

I appreciate the sentiment, but unfortunately your website is quite misleading. For example, subjects do not have an absolute right to erasure, even under GDPR, but your detailed comments about this are hidden in your FAQ while your main introductory paragraph clearly says something very different. Your letter template also has a few problems. The date is not in European format. The content itself appears to be conflating different subject rights in a confusing way. It also refers to some contact methods but doesn't include all of the necessary details to use them.

Please be careful getting involved with legal matters if you're not sure what you're doing. You could cause real trouble for all involved if people think they have rights they don't and start trying to make a big deal of it.
Are you saying the stupidity comes from using remote workers? What are some anecdotes you've heard recently?

Rather cheap sarcasm, no? If those "many other things which are also harmful" apply equally to the opposite thing, then it's probably neither the thing nor the opposite that is the actual cause of the harm.

Someone wanting to harass someone else can do it over a true story (person X did X) just as well as over a conspiracy story (aliens made person Y did Z).

The fault lies with the harasser (who is acting badly) not with the reason why they harass.

Or maybe you think that if a story is true then it's OK to harass people over it?
The problem is that author lives in his own naive little worlds and lacks any kind of imagination to understand what life might be like on other worlds.

I mean, really, you've got to be special kind of clueless to think the problem XML solves is syntax. Oh yes, it was all about avoiding having to write more parsers. Except that makes zero sense because each XML vocabulary does require writing custom code to process it or transform it and that custom code is just another high-level parser.

The key problem that XML solves, BTW, is namespaces. It is a mark-up language, after all, that lets people assign unique names to data in a document. Anybody who actually works on systems that involve multiple enterprises grasps this quite quickly. (Unfortunately we don't all do Web CRUD.)

As for blockchains the author is similarly misguided. Blockchains do not solve centralization. Systems like Bitcoin are centralization engines, they strongly incentive centralization at virtually every level, on a planetary scale. The blockchain platforms that show the most promise in real-world use are actually permissioned blockchains that introduce a central authority in order to prevent the race-to-the-bottom centralization incentives of Bitcoin and Eth.

Ironically, the author is correct that blockchains and XML are linked. Permissioned blockchains like eg Corda [1] work so well because they lower transaction costs across business. Blockchains at this level solve the biggest problem there is in business, the Auditing Problem (sometimes called the "Trust Problem" but this is a bad name because the problem is that businesses can't and never will trust other businesses).

I could go on but this sort of reddit-style ranting about technologies that the author clearly doesn't understand isn't valuable or productive. There are interesting problems and costs that XML and blockchains introduce but you're not going to find that here. This is just a dead end.

You don't need 3D fluid dynamics for 2d sailing game.

You would have 3 separate 2d layers for wind, sea currents and then wave layer. The waves don't have to follow the wind, but they they could have specular reflection from the land. It would make sailing in complex archipelago or narrow choke points more realistic.
If this is some pun or joke, I don't get it. I assure you a place can be both cold and windy simultaneously, and this is not exclusive to Chicago.

I’d need to see a source for the claim it would make the next storm worse. Sounds logical but weather is complicated.

For example maybe trade winds and currents simply speed up a bit if there’s no storm.
Nonetheless, most of us would agree that some abridgement of rights is acceptable for this "minority group." This is why I don't think talking this way is helpful.

It's good that you are both aware and optimistic. Personally, I don't share this viewpoint. But I hope your optimism is well-founded.

China is indeed the canary in the coal mine. Lack of privacy there is explicit and almost universally accepted.

Will this become the new normal? Nobody knows, but I believe the answer is - yes it will. In the medium term, the world will come to follow, rather than reject China's approach.

To mitigate such an eventuality, we must study and take guidance from privacy outliers in China.
I find it pretty easy to convince the world exist. If you assume you yourself exist, and think, and if you assume the contrary, that the world out there doesn't exist, you should ask yourself what alcohol and drugs are.

Because if the world out there doesn't exist, these things shouldn't effect the way you think. If something is simulating the world for you, you have to assume every time you drink, that thing alters the way you think somehow, which means it can access your actual real brain, whatever it is.

Then that brain of yours, even if it's outside the world, must be so similar to all the other brains you see, which are effected similarly by those same substances.
This is kinda what I would expect. If people can get away without valid certificates they will. Before Lets Encrypt I would find that every "intranet" site I used would have a cert expire every year. The people who run these are cheap fk's and use LE because they don't have to pay.

Aside from the usual "we promised the customer we can do X; whaddaya mean you need 8 months to make it happen!?" ... here's one of the anecdotes:

* * *

The company makes numerous products. Some people in one of our other locations made a new product, and it was being demonstrated at some kind of trade show. So Marketing has T-shirts made for the show, with designs that look like a Beetles album cover, and words to the effect of "Meet the Developers of new product".

Except, of the four or five faces on the shirt's design, only two belong to people who actually worked on that product. Another one or two are developers from a different team; and another one is one of the QAs on my team. This particular QA, I might add, has a ... let's say it's an unprofessional-looking face and leave it at that.

* * *

Conclusion: our Marketing department is stupid, therefore I'm not surprised that other Marketing people are stupid enough to buy into the glamour of digital nomadry.

This is the first time Intel is the sole baseband modem supplier for Apple's new iPhone.

This is also the first time Intel has their baseband modem manufacture in their own 14nm Fab.

This is also the first time any Intel modem had support for CDMA / TDS-CDMA.

This is also the first time Intel made x86 into their baseband modem. All previous modem, 8 years since Infineon has been sold to Intel, has all been ARM based.

So yes, lots of hope for this new Modem. And finger crossed Intel don't mess this up.

Yeah, if you use the Moser-de Bruijn sequence for constructing a pairing function you just get bit interleaving. You define the map expand(x_0, x_1, ..., x_n) = (x_0, 0, x_1, 0, ..., 0, x_n), apply it to x and y, multiply expand(y) by 2 to shift it over, and add them to merge the now disjoint even/odd positions. Incidentally, this decomposition of the problem is exactly how you efficiently implement bit interleaving in software except you don't even need addition:

z = interleave(x, y) = expand(x) | (expand(y) << 1)

For the inverse you define the map compact(x_0, x_1, ..., x_2n) = (x_0, x_2, ..., x_2n) and then

uninterleave(z) = (compact(z), compact(x >> 1)) = (x, y)

The expand map can be implemented efficiently as a logarithmic number of shift-and-merge stages, and compact can be constructed by inverting each stage separately and composing them in reverse order. A stage has this form:

x' = x | (x << n)

You sometimes also see it written with xor. That's not necessary. What you care about is that the operation is bitwise (e.g. no carries from addition) and it must have 0 as an identity.

If x has 2n bits then this is reversible: the lower n bits in x and x' are the same, and the upper n bits in x and (x' >> n) are the same, so you can recover all 2n bits of x from x' with low(x') | high(x' >> n). You can cascade stages like this if you alternate them with appropriate masking to allow data-parallel operation. The net effect of the first stage, after masking, is to shift the upper n bits of x up by n bits while leaving the lower n bits in place. The next stage then does the same thing on the two halves in parallel with a shift of n/2, and so on until you're done. The masking prevents cross-talk between subvectors so you can operate on a single vector as if it were a set of independent subvectors. Or put another way, it enforces the precondition for the reversibility of each stage.

Anyway, just some random connections to low-level hacking.
