I sometimes think Nvidia goes out of its way to screw with Linux users. Then I remember that are a tiny, tiny fraction of the market so why bother. They just have crap support for a market that realistically they don't even need to support.

Except for their GPU drivers for machine learning: that's a fairly hot market right now.
But you can't compel Verizon to support 911 if they decide to get out of wireless communications business in the first place.
Do all sw dev position require Ruby on Rails production experience?
I can see the logic of your example, but I'm with the radical person - I don't think the rich should be allowed to create "no peasants allowed zones." For many, many reasons, but chief among which is that maybe if the hyper rich have to share some of the public experiences we all have, they'll be more inclined to contribute to the improvement of those resources.

It does, because the property value is high right, but in California that rate could be "locked in" by the same owner decades ago (property tax doesn't change here until sold).

I'm guessing the op meant a secondary, even greater and separate tax.
I was hoping this would have a big picture of Linus giving Nvidia the finger.

An issue I had that isn't on the list is installing Nvidia drivers on an encrypted install of Ubuntu 16.04. After installing the drivers it would no longer boot, so I could only encrypt my home folder.
I think Valve might be moving to a software Steam Link instead of the physical box. You can download the software, also called Steam Link, on Android devices. I think you can also install it on some smart TVs, but I'm not sure.

I’m not justifying their lack of efforts for Linux users but I can understand why they limit their resources towards creating better drivers. According to Wikipedia(1), the amount of Linux usage worldwide is barely even a blip compared to windows + macOS. From a business standpoint, it’s hard to see the benefits of correcting these issues.

I would like to know more about the review methodology and when the review is triggered. If I ask for wide permissions, get them, and then sell my extension to a malicious third party, what triggers the review?
I’m not disagreeing with your reasoning for going OMSCS route, but if the company is going to pay for it either way and support you studying, why not take advantage of it to the fullest and have them reimburse you for the eMBA?

At some point in the future if my life allows for it, I would do the OMSCS degree just for the hell of it and it’s only $7K.

Edit: A degree in STEM serves basically two purposes - education and credentials. You already have good credentials and you could teach yourself anything you want in CS.

Even more of a reason to go the eMBA route.
Bear in mind that it is not in a carrier's (financial) interest to drop a call. Carriers are not required to verify CLID either.

I'm one of those people who dreads implementing even basic code like "visit every node in this binary tree" while someone watches me. I never have to do that on the job. I never had to do it in school. I hate having to do it in an interview. OTOH, if you give me a challenge to implement a solution for a problem and let me work on it on my own, I often do really well. I'd rather spend 3 hours on a harder problem in a comfortable environment than 20 minutes in a live coding environment with someone watching. I understand that some people are much happier with fast, live coding exercises. I'm fine with that; I don't think that there's only one way to find good candidates.

I think that the difference between take-home problems and live coding is akin to the difference between being able to write a thoughtful essay and extemporaneous public speaking. I try to avoid the latter. And I also understand that some particularly selective employers may want someone who can extemporize essay-quality material on the spot. That's ok too. I recognize my limits. I'm not going to chase those positions.

(Not that Fizzbuzz takes anyone hours.)
I'm honestly curious. This seems like a way to create lots of legal corner cases. Can I drive a car on any beach in Oregon? Is it (technically) illegal to bike/walk on the beaches? My guess is that legislation has smoothed out the obvious questions. But to the broader point, do there exist strange legal corner cases because of this?
I'm willing to send you "Evicted" in ebook format if you email the address in my profile. That's the best way I can think of to share with you the experience of being dirt poor in America, and why the things you just listed are irrelevant to a massive swath of Americans.
I think it’s reasonable for the state to say that even this level of corporate private access is not desired. Why should it be for such a limited public good?
On my particular Android phone (Pixel) this is not a great solution because setting Do Not Disturb alters the behavior of other things like Calendar reminders or email alerts. You could make DND not do that, but sometimes I do want to mute other things. If you're using DND all the time, you essentially lose that feature on your phone.

The best solution I've found is to just go into the Google Dialer app and set the option to not ring on any call suspected to be spam. I still do get spam calls that haven't yet been reported, but it's down to only about 3-4 a month.

Not sure if Samsung phones / other android flavors have a similar feature or not.
I think your difficulty will be in coming up with a way that allows for any private parks, then. And, by extension, a private yard.

You can almost get away with just defining this as something only single families can do, but then you run afoul of some genuine community ownership things. Want to band together into a mutual HOA so that you and your neighbors can afford to maintain a private pool? Why/why not?

Edit: I suspect I agree with the radical on this. :)
Yeah they have an app for modern Samsung TVs at least, I think 2017- models
>"There are zero valid interpretations of quantum mechanics where you can tell me which particles will come out of an event, even in principle. It seems silly to suggest that describing your certainty in your results is incompatible with "advanced science," when the reason you're doing it is because of a direct law of nature."

There is no fundamental uncertainty in GR predictions. There is none in the stefan-boltzmann law, etc. In many cases whatever QM uncertainty exists will be negligible next to measurement error and so is not considered. Acting like QM uncertainty has anything to do with 99% of physics is nonsense.

I suppose that would be kind of interesting. Although if it's conceivable that someone could just store all the useful information then you can't just request a random piece of information as a proof of 'work', so you'd need something clever.

Anyway the comment was probably downvoted because it consisted of a single buzzword.

Um, no. It doesn't show any such thing.

Well, some people are working on this: https://github.com/gfx-rs/gfx/blob/master/README.md

I think at this point it's clear that we'll NEVER have a cross-platform graphics API. The incentives for platform holders speak against it, and design by committee means the attempts are so inferior that devs would rather avoid them.

We have to make wrappers. Ideally, they should translate at compile time.
If only there was a way to register a Public Key that only a corresponding Private Key could use.
> An issue I had that isn't on the list is installing Nvidia drivers on an encrypted install of Ubuntu 16.04. After installing the drivers it would no longer boot, so I could only encrypt my home folder.

This makes no sense, do you understand the actual cause enough to explain it?
Honestly, I've had fewer problems with the proprietary Nvidia drivers than with nouveau, even on fairly old hardware.

Both of my wife's desktops (home and office) started locking up randomly with a kernel oops due to the nouveau driver after upgrading to Ubuntu 18.04. I realized that she had this bug, but in Ubuntu 18.04: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1559178. No problems since switching to the proprietary drivers.

I use FreeBSD, and also run the proprietary Nvidia drivers.

> The Dedekind/Peano higher order theory of the natural numbers prove its own formal consistency.

No it doesn't - that would contradict Goedel's well-established theorem. The formal consistency of Peano arithmetic has been proven, but not by Peano arithmetic:

> Gentzen's theory obtained by adding quantifier-free transfinite induction to primitive recursive arithmetic proves the consistency of first-order Peano arithmetic (PA) but does not contain PA [...] Gentzen's theory is not contained in PA, either, however, since it can prove a number-theoretical fact—the consistency of PA—that PA cannot.

It does support the concept of score, maybe score points + score negative points?
I also sense the slippery slope present, but my understanding is that many countries have beach-specific laws without sliding into "no private property," so the evidence is such that the slippery slope does not exist.

As for parks, the USA has sorted that already with the national and state park system. Sometimes those get huge land donations from private citizens as well.

Buuuut personally, I am of the "abolish private property" mindset anyway, I think that's way out of scope for here though. It's for the same reasons I've listed previously.
Although informally correct, this is highly misleading. There really isn't much info about the company on the internet, the stuff that shows up in searches is laughably wrong, and it is really important to understand that "Raytheon Cyber Solutions, Inc." has different benefits and culture than many other companies owned by The Raytheon Corporation.

An example of the problem is glassdoor claiming $44k-$70k for a highly-technical position in San Antonio that requires an existing clearance. Seriously???? I smell paid services, but anyway that salary has been bit shifted. They also have lots of photos that are not us at all. There is a separate company that makes gun turrets, some place in Spain... this is simply not us at all.

So philibuster, this is not helping. Please stop. If anybody relies on a search for the company name, they might conclude that we pay top technical talent about as much as burger flippers.

You can certainly plug 8 into one GrowStrip, if you want to control 20 outlets you can just use 3 GrowStrips and you can tie them together as one conceptual unit on our software platform.
Curious to know how does that compare to AMD drivers?
This project looks awesome, but as a complete aside:

How long do we expect it to take before "automagically" completely replaces "automatically" in English?

I am guessing less than a decade to go now
I understand how difficult that can be.

I suffer from nocturia (diagnosed as non pathological after many rounds of tests all turning up negative). In a typical night I get five hours max of contiguous sleep and have started sleeping (by that I mean the in bed duration) nine to ten hours as an attempt to compensate for not being able to stay asleep.

I've always been curious about the difference between time spent in bed and actual time in deep sleep and their equivalence (or exchange factor).

Have you also resulted in increasing how long you are in bed to compensate?
> everyone's tax return is public, and fines are based on income in your last return

Not unusual for business people or anyone to have varied income from year to year but also that does not relate to actual assets or (the original point 'net worth' which is ironically a better measure of what you can pay (assumes liquid of course..)) Also what about someone with an inheritance or trust money?

Once again with the speeding fine it seems oppressive for the same 'crime' to charge someone $100k because they have income or assets and have that money to pay.

Also from what I read the Finnish system is legacy and the way it has always been. There is a big difference in that as people grew up with it vs. in the US where it would be something newly done. Forget even the revolt that would happen. It would also (once again here, because not legacy) lead to inflation as people would all the sudden quite possibly think they are underpaid next to someone else.

Now in the US many pay checks are public but people aren't typically keyed into checking the data source because it's a bit obscure and not a regular stop (key point by the way 'out of sight'). So for example if you work in NYC and you find out a trash man makes $90k per year and you make $60k you are going to feel shortchanged possibly. Once again that info is public (and the amount with overtime can be that btw) but not usually something people are accustomed to thinking about.
A lot more than 15PB; it was over 20PB last year. And that figure doesn't count the duplicate copies they keep of everything.
> They keep the data and just don’t display it.

I’ve read about the robots.txt mentioned before but hadn’t seen this mentioned. Any idea if they have this somewhere on the site?
Yeah, the way that voice commands were recognized via pattern-matching the syllabic rhythms rather than via the actual meaning of the commands was, in hindsight, kind of cheating.

But consider the degree to which today's neural nets are simply engaging in (admittedly far more complex) pattern-matching, with little more understanding of the actual meaning than Elektro.

A lot of today's AI researchers/enthusiasts/hypesters like to imagine that there isn't really anything fundamental missing from this picture, that it's just a matter of the pattern-matching getting better until it really becomes useable in a general-purpose sort of way. But I'm sure that Elektro's makers could have told themselves the same thing. "Look at how sophisticated Elektro is, with 48 electrical relays! Imagine what it will be able to do with hundreds of relays! Or thousands! The possibilities are virtually limitless!"
I think it's a good licence for an OS or for any software because it gets more products pushed out there which all in all gives society more stuff to play with, which is kind of the point of writing free software, at least for me.
I thought the definition of "maintain" was determined to be "not prevent previous access routes?"

Meh, clearly just need to look at the casework, I'm no lawyer.

Good. There is zero reason why that person should be able to close off access to the beach. It is crazy that, because of his wealth, he's able to just eat the fine that comes from doing so.
Ofc, thats a self-fulfilling prophecy: nvidia should never see high usage in linux if they’re not spending money there, except by accident (ie a cheap, good card also happens to be cracked open enough for good open source drivers to be written, or something like bitcoin crops up again, and linux/nvidia is necessary enough that people use it despite the shoddy drivers).

But it always has to be because the lack of interest by nvidia was overcome

Voter ID addresses a threat model that has been repeatedly proven to be minor at worst. It does absolutely nothing for the much more serious threat model of digital tampering.
To be fair, the startup mythos canon supports this. Many examples of programmers learning the business stuff on the fly as they scale, not out of a sense of "if I wanted to" but "now I need to". The opposite? If there are examples, they're not part of the mythos.
AMD actively contributes driver code to the mainline kernel. So with recent Linux kernels, AMD graphics cards and APUs based on the GCN architecture (launched about 2011/2012 if I recall correctly) work out of the box with full 3D acceleration, just like integrated Intel graphics.

There was a time a few years ago when the mainline kernel driver was significantly worse performance-wise (mainly due to missing power management), but this should no longer be the case.

There still exists a proprietary AMD driver, but this driver is going to be phased out and only required for "Pro" features.

See this AMD slide deck for more information: https://archive.fosdem.org/2018/schedule/event/amd_graphics/...

Proof of storage is used in siacoin, but not to secure the network. I haven't seen a scheme where proof of storage can be used to secure the network.

In terms of making sure the work that is done is useful it's fairly hard to do that because if you let someone dictate what work should be done then you potentially allow them to do the work upfront and a 51% attack becomes pretty easy.
I can't find a link to the ethnography right now, but the Trobriand Island culture doesn't consider sex to be a cause of pregnancy. The reasons:

- People get pregnant who say they haven't had sex
