It's become the walmart of the web. Lower quality or knock off products and a sometimes lower price. I canceled my prime because most the stuff I was looking to buy was never prime eligible for shipping. And Amazon steaming or music isnt worth the price either.

I'm also somewhat skeptical, but it's worth noting that "Skylake" covers a lot of ground[1], and the mobile Skylake processors use 15W (9.5W when in low power processing mode)[2]. Still a matter of multiples, but 5x instead of 55x.

No, you would be very disappointed. The vast majority of usefulness from a smart phone happens because it is connected. Since there would be now towers for the phone to connect to, most of the things you want to show couldn't be done.

You could use it as a personal organizer - but without connectivity it can be argued that a paper organizer is easier to use. There are a few other programs that will also work in a fashion, but again lacking connectivity the paper equivalents are as good if not better.

There are also a few games that will work: you can really impress them with the games you can play.

The only thing impressive will be the camera - a full color picture that you can zoom in on and save is interesting. Having 10000 photos (plus some videos) in your pocket will get attention. Of course once the phone breaks you lose all that, but still it will be impressive.

17 independent sources doesn't mean anything. Again, this is the same as the sources that said their were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Companies and government use propaganda all the time, so until you have more information confirming these claims, then it is best to hold off before trying to say that Apple and Amazon denying the claims str proof that they are real.
As you've pointed out, none of that is really about React itself.

React-Router did completely change its API between version 3 and version 4, but my understanding is that version 3 is still maintained. So, you likely didn't _need_ to upgrade to v4.

React-Hot-Loader has always been something of an "experimental" tool. There's entirely too many edge cases around detecting components and trying to maintain state of component instances when hot reloading. The React team has suggested they have some ideas for ways to make hot reloading a better experience down the road. (Personally, I prefer to keep most of my state in Redux and use "plain HMR" [0], but I'm biased.)

It sounds like most of the issue here was really with React-Router. Were there other specific issues you ran into?

Yes, but those conditions start and end at requiring attribution.

MIT already allows sublicensing, so a CLA for an MIT project (assuming nothing else shady is going on) really only buys them the ability to change future licenses to something incompatible with MIT (would that be called superlicensing?), and possibly remove your attribution in future versions.

That to me is philosophically what I want out of a permissive license, so I personally am fine with CLAs in those cases, however I can understand why some would be against that.

A blog post of mine arguing for CLAs:

https://writing.kemitchell.com/2018/01/06/CLAs-Are-Not-a-Sha...

My post responds to a different blog post. Some of the arguments here are different.

Here, I can't help pointing out two minor vocabulary issues.

A "Contributor License Agreement" does not usually transfer ownership of copyright. We call documents that do "copyright assignments", and they require special formalities. There are some strange hybrids, like CLAs that assign joint ownership of copyright, but they're the exception. Most CLAs that I see are merely additional license grants from contributor to project steward or BDFL.

"Relicense" gets misused and misunderstood all the time. It's very rare to see anyone try to change license terms for code already released under an open source license, and distributed to others. There are legal questions about whether this is possible or practical. And as I recall, Redis Labs didn't try to do that, but only changed the terms that will apply to new work on select Redis add-ons, going forward. In other words, they changed the terms they'll use for future work.

We sometimes say "relicensing" when we mean "dual licensing" or "offering the same code on different terms", rather than changing the one-and-only set of terms that apply to software. The former describes what companies do when they steward a project under a common open source license, often GPL or AGPL, but also sign business deals that include traditional, proprietary-style license terms. Often, such licenses omit requirements to preserve copyright notices from developers, and also copyleft requirements. At the same time, business-to-business licenses are often more restrictive in other ways, like limiting to internal business use, prohibiting reselling, seat-limiting, and so on.

CLAs often give corporate stewards the more permissive licenses they need to sign those kinds of terms with customers. In that sense, CLAs make possible the business model that supports the company stewarding the project.
You can buy a MacBook Pro 13" 2018 edition with retina and 512gb for 13000 danish kr, if you use the students discount. A similarly specced 13" XPS is around 12000-14000 danish kr.

A 512gb surface book is at least 21000 danish kr, because it only ships with the 15". A 256gb one is around 12000-13000 danish kr.
You have a fundamental misunderstanding of what Slate is doing.

Slate is not saying "You can only access this if you give us consent". There's a few media sites that do that, and they're not breaking the law. No, Slate is saying "You can totally opt out... look...", and not following the proper opt-out rules.

Wew lad, that’s an awful lot of words you’re putting into my mouth.

If I had argued similarly that the American state has a history of brutality, which it does (Native American genocide, slavery, colonialism, for-profit prison labor, etc) am I subsequently arguing that Americans themselves are cruel? Of course not. Self-centered, detached, unaware of their constitutional privileges to change things or unwilling to use them, perhaps. But certainly not cruel.

I would welcome a discussion about the nuances of Chinese dynasties, individual emperors, interdynastic states of affairs, and so on, but come on, but let’s at least have a conversation in good faith, ok?

Perhaps a point to start with: individuals with very little power compared to the state have little to no say in the state’s affairs. If the state is brutal and cruel, how much of that is their responsibility? Could they be blamed for political inactivity if it only brings suffering on their household? Are they complicit in th activities of the state if they merely want to make money and live a comfortable life with their friends and families, given that they pay taxes which are used for wars and state suppression?
“The user” is not a monolithic entity. JIRA transfers power from labor to management. Obviously a certain kind of management loves that, but as a worker, it’s in your interest to stay away.

Of course you can use JIRA as just a tool, but it tends to take on a life of its own, becoming central to his work is allocated and performance is assessed.
What is good color? (2015)
Yeah, I don't disagree- but I do sometimes wonder if those same psychological truths could have been derived without said religions. That said, I did read Harris' book Waking Up and thought it was interesting and his thought was that Buddhism did provide some specific/keen insights on psychology and the mind that we really haven't encountered or arrived at anywhere else, at least not before Buddhism did. So I think my stance would be near the statement you quoted too.

I do have a passing interest in Buddhism (but not as an adherent, though I do meditate, read about, and appreciate some of it) though both Buddhism and the better forms of Christianity I still don't think are for me (nor is any organized religion) but I can appreciate parts of them from a distance and those that are still adherents, if their actions follow positive paths from them. I think I've matured since my journey out of the faith began, so it's easier now to be a bit more measured (yet still firm) in my rejection of it.

This seems to be an argument against non-viral licenses than CLAs:

> We’ve seen this happen before. Consider the Redis Labs debacle, where they adopted the nonfree1 Anti-Commons Clause2, and used their CLA to pull along any external contributions for the ride. As thanks for the generous time invested by their community into their software, they yank it out from underneath it and repurpose it to make money with an obscenely nonfree product.

People can already repurpose software with permissive licenses such as MIT, BSD, or Apache 2.0. That's actually the point of those licenses, isn't it?

I don't think most ML experts would agree with that, a big reason DL became popular are the huge improvements they brought to CV and NLP fields.

In many ways, traditional approaches were harder because you need huge amount of domain expertise in CV & NLP, whereas a ML expert can solve simple CV problems with almost no domain knowledge.

Now, a lot of the business data, especially time series data, I agree that an algorithm/heuristic approach is easier and more robust. E.g. recommendation systems.

Even if more things are being compiled to native code instead of Dalvik, I don't think that would explain the benchmark results here, as I think SPEC is always compiled to native code. It seems there's something more fundamental to Apple's hardware that is allowing for such insane performance.

As for Minecraft Pocket Edition, isn't that written in native code anyways? So I'd expect it to perform better on Apple hardware, assuming the hardware is actually the bottleneck for performance.
Inside the Bay Area’s craziest underground psychedelic parties
CLA's basically do one thing: Protect the company using them from being sued by a contributor, or from being sued if a contributor copy pastes copyrighted code into the project. They're there to protect corporations that have outside contributors to projects they build and sell, typically. Sometimes, they're fine, like if you signed one to work on some obscure Linux driver for an obscure hardware item: the hardware company might want an outsider to write it, but still need legal protections since the person basically wandered in off the street from their legal departments view.

Sometimes, CLAs are bad. Oracle loves CLAs. Sun Microsystems loved CLAs. Pretty sure you have to sign one to contribute to OpenJDK now...

Open source licenses can be just awful too. AGPL, for example. CLAs are not an immediate "no," but they should make you ask "Why am I signing this?" If you can't come up with a good reason, fine, don't sign it. But don't for a second think you'll get code into a project run by Oracle without signing one.
Mark Cuban Prodded Tesla's Elon Musk to Settle SEC Charges
Using used parts for repairs is normal practice. It makes little sense to manufacture a new body panel when there is a perfectly good one from a vehicle with a bad drivetrain just sitting there in a junkyard.

The trouble right now is because Tesla has only recently started delivering in meaningful volumes, there is no big supply of them in junkyards to pull parts from. And for much the same reason there are no independent parts suppliers yet, so the company has a temporary monopoly on parts.

Whether their attitude changes when the parts monopoly erodes remains to be seen, but competition has a way of shifting corporate behavior.

And some of the current behavior is within reason, e.g. if you have free supercharging it's not so you can modify your car to sell that power back to the grid, or take the VIN of a wrecked car with free supercharging and try to transfer it to an entirely different car by exchanging a couple of parts. There has to be some process to make sure that's not what's happening.
I guess I was trying to suggest in a tongue-in-cheek way that gp's comment might be disingenuous or contain some sort of fallacy. I mean, there are plenty of ways that drug companies can benefit or be a scourge on humanity. Just consider the EpiPen pricing debacle. Is it a benefit to humanity when the demand for a life-saving product is leveraged to maximize profits, extracting the livelihood from the people it's supposed to be saving?

I completely disagree. The point of this story is exactly that this stuff is line with what the journals normally publish. Their entire point is that the stuff they wrote is indistinguishable from these journal's normal fare.
> Bloomberg is exquisitely specific and detailed about the chip, including photos and placement (on the baseboard management bridge, disguised as a shielding element.)

They are very specific, yes. They show pictures of the alleged chips that are allegedly disguised, yes. They describe placement, yes.

However, photographic or video evidence of these chips on SuperMicro boards is conspicuously absent. The only visual of placement is an illustration, not a photo. I’m not suggesting Bloomberg is wrong. I find this story fascinating and incredible (if true). But I noticed there were no photos/video of the chips on boards.
Couldn't this protect me from somebody sneaking my laptop while I'm not looking and replacing a part with another that has some spyware attached?

So they're lying because they've only been around for 30 years? What sort of logic is that.

There are much more egregious examples in computer science publishing. A paper that just repeated the words "get me off your fucking mailing list" over and over [1] was published in a journal. I also remember there being some automatic paper generators that resulted in several publications several years back. This is 100% an issue with bogus for-profit publishing, not with any particular area of study.

Plenty of people try to replicate, in trying to build on work from other labs. What they don’t do is publish when replication fails, but the failure to replicate usually becomes known in the community.
>Yes, but those conditions start and end at requiring attribution.

Read carefully:

>copyright notice and this permission notice

>MIT already allows sublicensing

IANAL, but sublicensing can only impose additional clauses, it cannot roll back any grants or restrictions of the original license.

> You cannot get to the scale of Facebook or Google without being political.

There's plenty of counterexamples.

There's huge companies much bigger than FB and Google that were never political outside of tech. Even in tech, you have Microsoft for example. I don't recall them ever being political in the 90s when they got huge. In fact, they don't seem political right now.
> The GDPR applies to governments as well. There are very specific rules in place for what information they're allowed to keep, any PII data can only be kept if there is valid purpose. The same rules go for companies, they're certainly allowed to keep information, as long as it's appropriate and necessary to provide the services they provide to you.

Services you personally asked them to provide to you. That's an entirely different standard. The GDPR doesn't permit companies to decide unilaterally what services they will provide and what information (much less funds) they are entitled to collect from you in order to provide those unasked-for services.
FISA et al are unconstitutional. You're doing nobody any favors by referring to it as legitimate.
I'm not sure that would explain plain CPU performance as shown here. I think SPEC compiles down to native code, so there should be only a fairly limited part of the whole stack involved here --- compiler guys for generating good code, kernel guys for scheduling/power management, SoC team for CPU/memory/GPU subsystem implementation.

I also thought kernel devs would be working against processor ISAs, not hardware-specific details beyond the ISA.
> Considering that you're advocating for rigorous empirical standards

Where did I do that?

> I'm really glad you're now saying that you just have the opinion that these papers and disciplines are absurd, because I'd consider that claim, stated as a fact, to be the realm of experts in the field. Presupposing the discipline is absurd would require you to have a deep knowledge of the field, which I'm not seeing much evidence of, here.

You seem to have missed the point of their exercise. The point of their exercise is that the entire field is intellectually bankrupt. To say that the only people who can deem the field intellectually bankrupt are its members is fairly silly. Just read the papers. They're ridiculous. You've provided no defense whatsoever of their content.
We haven't see any solid evidence on this. Before they publish enough evidence, as a Chinese, I think this is totally fake news to meet their political needs.

Seems like it's more an economics issue than technology. We're already most of the way there as seen by the sheer quantity of throwaway product - where it's cheaper to make another than allow repair and maintenance. (I'm ignoring DRM on repairs - that's a different issue).

We could probably have post-scarcity as Keynes envisaged right now if we hadn't created rampant throwaway consumerism along with increase in capability post WW2. The moment an issue is "solved" fake problems will be invented to sell a needless alternative. e.g. The creation and marketing of liquid soap that's worse in essentially all respects to bar soap, or the whole creation of body and looks insecurity to sell a cosmetic or cream.

So, surely in x years when technologically we're able to achieve post-scarcity it'll just spawn another fake solution to another fake problem? Another reason to keep working 40 hrs instead of dropping to 20.

Maybe it can truly appear after World War 3, the banking and finance wars.
I just have a hard time picturing the dystopian world where everyone walks around with figurative chains around their neck, working lifetimes of drudgery, because we let Amazon finally get monopoly power in all the stuff they sell and we have to pay double for our pens, notepads, backpacks and soap. And not a single company is popping up to reap the profits of selling a comparable item at a price that by construction of this scenario could be well below Amazon's but well above the cost of production.
People aren't comparing 3W mobile chips to 150W desktop CPUs. They're comparing like for like in terms of perf/watt. Skylake isn't a particular SKU, it's a micoarchitecture generation, from which Intel can scale the design from low power 10W parts to power hungry server chips.
It seems that it would only be interesting if Bloomberg was right.

People lose trust to companies like Apple or Amazon if they lie. Bloomberg though? Nope, everything would just continue as normal. And Bloomberg is not even that bad. We just got used to bad journalism.
