For the idea of building and improving the analytical part of your brain, I highly recommend the Coursera course Learning How to Learn by Dr. Barbara Oakley. [0] An excerpt from her Wikipedia page[1]:

After her Army duties ended, Oakley decided to challenge herself and see if her brain, more used to the study of languages, could be 'retooled' to study mathematical subjects. She chose to study engineering, in order to better understand the communications equipment she had been working with in the Army.

Okay I'm on 4.18.14 and just tried plugging my MT2. It _basically_ works, but the trackpad feel is as bad that of my Thinkpad's. And none of the gestures, including two finger tap, works.

EDIT: looking at dmesg, it is registered as `hid-generic`. So not using the new driver?

On the other hand there is no obviously right way, and you really need context to decide on the right way to display a duration of 20 days. This way you can write a fairly small wrapper that makes the interesting decisions and leaves the grunt work to the API

> 3d interaction with information objects in virtual space is future

Perhaps it is because we're interacting with 3D objects in real space all the time. Unfortunately we're still lacking a convenient and widely available device to interact with virtual objects. VR/AR helmets are not convenient. <sarcasm>Imagine the success of 2D desktops if we had to wear sensor gloves instead of using mice and touchpads</sarcasm>. Even them were not optimal. Touching a screen with a finger was so better (for low precision pointing) that for some people it's the only interaction device with a computing device.

You're totally wrong. I have nothing against space in itself. Just anything grandiose and technological feels absurd in our era. We have too much tech and not enough happiness. More tech is just chasing the exhilarating sensations of the early days of the last tech revolution.

For #1 and #2, there is a thing called emotional resilience that we have lost today. More importantly, the conversations do not get any less antagonistic in communities with this policies. If anything I have seen them get more vicious towards those in the "out group". In times past it was very rare when people were banned from groups. Today it is a regular occurrence, often made with threats of bringing in the police, ruining ones career etc..

Her post actually does a pretty good job at that. But to summarize, as a women in tech she does not feel that women should be given preferential treatment and she is outspoken against lowering the bar and etc. to increase diversity numbers.

For example with one group they held a hackathon. In most hackathons they focus on tech and participants are encouraged to talk about it. One Women in Tech group however held one for women only and actively encouraged the participants to not talk about tech and focused on identity politics, marketing and celebrity endorsements (I was a volunteer and observed this first hand and actively ignored, went against the organizers wishes with the groups I worked with by encouraging them to explore, talk and learn about the tech). Their mentors, with encouragement from the organizers, even went so far as to discourage participants from talking about the tech because it is "boring". The medium post author spoke up about this and ended up with a big target on her back for daring to suggest that the women should be held to the same standard, encouraged to talk about the tech and level up if they are not their yet.

> Damore - who was clearly fired because his manifesto by implication, but unmistakebly deemed women developers less competent than men, thereby creating a hostile work environment, which the author completely glosses over.

Marlene, the author of the medium post and a women in tech who wants to be recognized for her skill when she's at a job or conference etc. and feels that many of the initiatives that lower the standards etc. work against that goal. She, along with many other women and prominent scientists came to a very different conclusion after reading this. Yet this intelligent, independent thinking woman is ostracized for daring to not go along with the narrative. One of the organizers of these women in tech groups suggested that her husband needed to control her, you can't make this up, and another female organizer who, unlike Marlene, literally had no real tech experience, said that Marlene, an experienced women in tech is being banned from a woman in tech group because her views that are "harmful to women and under represented people".

She is pro-women etc, but if we are being honest, it's because she is not a progressive and is not afraid to speak the truth.
My lenovo experiences thus far have been mixed. Had a work-provided s540 which was rubbish. Fragile case with blemishes straight out of the factory, so-so performance and battery life, and the main board cracked (literally) just outside of warranty.

Replacing that I got a t460p which I’ve had for 2 years now, and that is an amazing machine. Very good build quality, light and compact, while having excellent performance (i7 6700 hq, 32 gb, dedicated graphics), quiet under load and excellent battery life. And it looks like those old-school thinkpads, which is cute.

I had heard the T series is good and the S is not, but it’s amusing to experience that myself.

I think it's perfect. Obviously the customer base is never going to expand beyond programmers who already know what REPL stands for, and the full name is a homonym for "replete" which is aspirational for a tool that aims to grow into a more fully-featured service.
I feel like I've been noticing that this problem on SO a lot recently, so I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss it.

I'll often find answers to questions which are outdated and haven't been improved. I agree they have a mechanism in place to fix it, but are users actually fixing answers en masse? SO could introduce an age out mechanism that requires an answer to be maintained semi regularly? Do they already have this today?
They forgot to mention the alternative TNC, "Threaded Neil-Conselman". Same connector dimensions but the barrel is threaded and the cable connector screws on.

I mostly see them used on smaller RF gear like WiFi antennas, and whip antennas on hand held radios. The threaded design provides a more secure mechanical attachment. The classic blue Linksys routers and AP's use a reverse TNC connector for the antennas.
Well... the hardware gets in your way there. Long mode properly requires paging to be enabled, which means that you have the choice between a complicated hardware bootstrapping proceedure to enable it, or a complicated bootloader environment which has already grabbed and used chunks of memory for page tables you need to not step on.

Also, use of real mode (still required for BIOS calls like e820) requires the ability to get back out of real mode, so you need the bootstrapping stuff in a real OS even if it's not in the tutorial.

But the register poking in the PIC/PIT is just silly. Turn that stuff off and use the correct hardware, even in a tutorial. Unless it's a tutorial on PC architecture history, I guess.
>CoCs have been needed for 20 years and more

No they have not. Everything was and is perfectly fine and cordial without them.
#1 on the list is:
First of all, love the Lord God with your whole heart, your whole soul, and your whole strength.

I'm an atheist - I am unable and unwilling to comply with this CoC. So yes, I would say that I am affected.

Other well known religious folk in the foss world, such as Larry Wall, do not insist on this kind of exclusion.
> GitLab infamously lost their entire production database

What?? The link you posted says

> Database data such as projects, issues, snippets, etc. created between January 31st 17:20 UTC and 23:30 UTC has been lost. Git repositories and Wikis were not removed as they are stored separately.

> It's hard to estimate how much data has been lost exactly, but we estimate we have lost at least 5000 projects, 5000 comments, and roughly 700 users. This only affected users of GitLab.com, self-hosted instances or GitHost instances were not affected.

How is that "their entire production database"? You make it sound so much worse than it was. While it was a horrible incident, they did not lose their whole production database.

On an unrelated note, this is one of the main problems resulting from too politically-correct culture: we can't even study differences to learn about them and see how we can help each other, as even the notion that such differences may exist is unwelcome (practically speaking, in a very concrete way - in terms of grants, academic career development etc.) As if admitting that we differ in some ways was a kind of sin rather than something to acknowledge, learn from and use.
managing giant monocultures with a few giant machines (that may or may not be human controlled) is not what this article is about; it is about the huge potential that smallish robots have for farming. More diverse crops, less pesticides, less damage to soil, less energy use, mixed instead of mono cultures. Really exciting if this takes off, such a win for the environment, the landscape, and ultimately for everyone of us
Next time we see gears like this happened something like after 1,500 years. Imagine where human kind would be if progress kept pace without this giant gap!

I don't know, software is far more dynamic than many other engineering fields. Even a first edition of The Art of Electronics is chick full of useful information, the only truly dated stuff is anything involving microcontrollers (so, software). Even the sections on digital logic ICs are still useful, they still see some use.

Software has always had the problem of information being outdated before the books even reach retailers. However, this is one of my big frustrations with SO. There are so, so many c++ questions with accepted answers that are now 'wrong' due to changes in the language. That, and the fanatical insistence to close questions that are opinion based closes off a lot of questions more experienced programmers will have.
Their name is honestly fine - it's memorable, has a good domain, and is super, super search-friendly.

Also, personally, it reminds me of "replete" more than "reptile", but that's neither here nor there.
This says more of "we're lazy and don't actually care to do this seriously" more than it says anything in good faith.
Facebook had an outage recently, Google has had outages. Hulu has an outage every week. You can check https://downdetector.com/ for recent history of many major services.

It's a fair bet that developers are more likely to notice and complain about software services being down on the internet.
Well the social justice team wins again. We're not talking about writing code, instead we're talking about identity politics. These people need to hear more "NO!"
On the other hand, the name creates a pretty clear picture of the service to its audience.

If you start looking at demographics outside the audience to qualify the name, then you'll probably end up with an abstract-but-brandable name that communicates less which seems like a regression.
Of course value-based CoCs are fine. The problem with this isn't the content, it's the fact that they're using the content because they fundamentally disagree with codes of conduct.
I grew up a huge fan of Mr. Lessig, his views, and his works... however, in the past few years, I've seen him repeatedly attack the concept of the Electoral College, and this has made me cautious of his views going forward.

Mr. Lessig and I were both born in the same place: Rapid City, South Dakota. Mr. Lessig hasn't lived here in a long time to my understanding, but I've lived here for most of my life. If the Electoral College were to be "abolished," South Dakota and basically the rest of the nation would be entirely beholden to the whims of the most populous centers of the country: New York and California. The Electoral College system may not be perfect, yet it gives a voice to those outside of a few major metropolitan areas with incredibly dense populations, and for that I am grateful, as the United States is a Republic of States and not a single, homogeneous population.

The fact that he's repeatedly made claims against the validity and importance of these aspects of the Electoral College system in recent years gives me pause when evaluating his political views going forward. In the past I would've purchased his book immediately upon hearing it existed but now I'm definitely hesitant.

I am open to hearing alternative solutions for the Electoral College system that take into account the incredibly diverse Republic of States that our nation consists of, but his repeated claims of "a vote from a citizen of Montana is essentially worth [n]% that of a vote in California" seem disingenuous at best—even if literally true—as they ignore the reason for the Electoral College's existence to begin with, as well as how it fits into the rest of our system of government and elections.

My South Dakotan vote for President may be "worth more" than that of someone in California, yet California gets fifty-three Representatives whereas South Dakota gets only one.
> A farmer, coal miner , etc who loses their job today is unlikely to re-skill & move to other industries

Don't confuse what is the current outcome with what has to be the outcome. Those individuals might not reskill in todays environment because of a combination of receiving an insufficient amount of the value they produced in their wages (preventing them from having the resources to retrain themselves), as well as social programs for reskilling being severely limited in both funding and how they constrain how and what skills are trained. (preventing gov't resources from retraining workers).

Neither of those has to be a forgone conclusion.

I do not think it is supposed to be satirical. I think it was Richard Hipp's way of writing something down that aligns with his personal values. The CoC even states that people should just try to follow it as well as they can:

> This rule is strict, and none are able to comply perfectly. Grace is readily granted for minor transgressions. All are encouraged to follow this rule closely, as in so doing they may expect to live happier, healthier, and more productive lives. The entire rule is good and wholesome, and yet we make no enforcement of the more introspective aspects.

EDIT: Saw that someones else had already commented on this. Leaving it up anyway. Sorry, folks!
Why not have string "constants" in the library so both methods work?
JIT is pretty hard to do with wasm. There's a strict separation between code and data in wasm, for security reasons. You can't jump into the heap. So the best you could do is to generate your new JITted code as a separate wasm module.
Yes. I've quit jobs over far less.

The thing that influences your values more than anything else is who you spend time in close proximity with.

If you spend all your time around people who look the other way when their compatriots do terrible things, you'll slowly bend that direction over time too.

What you've written here sounds like the preaching of a religious person.

We must correct our "biases, conscious or not"? What evidence do you have that all of us are laboring under the weight of some kind of original sin of "bias"?

Can any one of us investigate these claims scientifically, or must we appeal to an authority in your belief system to get answers?

Your virtue signaling is unimpressive. Please take it elsewhere. What RMS is doing here is clearly a step in the right direction.
I have the exact same laptop. I really like it. I purchased because my x220 lasted forever. In fact it's still running fine as my back-up and travel computer. And in case of emergency, I can always beat an intruder to death with it, whilst running a 10 min gradle build.

Thinkpads have annoyances, but they are cheap if you don't mind upgrading everything yourself, and they are indestructible in my experience. Plus for coding day, having a thinkpoint greatly adds to my productivity. Shame the screens are usually rubbish.

I've always believed that you should be liberal in what you accept but conservative in what you generate. It's fine to strategize your own behavior to come across well to as many people as possible (for example not eating meat in front of a conscience-driven vegan) but when it comes to other people's behavior you have to be very judicious about the difference between uncomfortable (but natural) signals and malicious actions.

In this case, I'm highlighting intent when I say "targeting." I shouldn't become upset when someone that always comes across as abrasive comes across as abrasive to me, but if someone goes out of their way to consciously be more abrasive than usual then that's a signal I should pay attention to. If someone who is usually very meek says something slightly harsh, then I should multiply it by a large factor to get back to their internal mental state (which is what I really care about). Likewise if it's a case where I should take what they say and divide it.
The meditation practice pointed to is fascinating, one can get 'attuned' to that part of the mind and it's like a never ending acid trip. Everything experienced and reactions to those experiences jumble around in the mind at a very very low level. The attuning process 'amplifies' this brain activity and coheres it into actual thoughts, using existing pattern and shape recognition pathways to conjure up visualizations.

Creativity seems to revolve around laying down 'trails' through the wilderness. The jumbled mess by itself isn't terribly interesting, it's the application of pattern and craft that does that.
No, they meant percentage of total energy production/consumption. It means that given Palau's existing grid, substations, generators, transformers, etc. it would be impossible to put on more solar/wind than an amount equivalent to 45% of consumption. Traditional grids are centralized, with the highest capacity transmission/distribution lines closest to the source, then stepping down (tree-like) as they fan out over the population to where it's consumed. It's often impossible to retrofit such grids, because in places you'd like to produce energy through solar/wind you've got only low capacity lines available over which to evacuate the power. Thus, the completely-new build out. Another factor is losses across the network, which were potentially high enough that no amount of new solar/wind could reach the community's total consumption. The new grid will be better-built, reducing total losses and therefore the amount of energy needed to be generated, and therefore allowing renewable energy to play a greater role. Interesting story, and this is my field, so happy to have a chance to add to the conversation.
Your first paragraph reinforces Zizeck's point, at least the portion quoted.

This is technically true, but what typically makes a person good at math is the ability to think logically, critically, and understand systems at a high level of abstraction.

Does anyone know why this kind of time formatting has caught on? It takes timezones out of the picture, but also results in large rounding and sometimes the need to consult a calendar.

One time I was using my T60 on the floor and managed to tip an entire full glass of water right into it, absolute worst case scenario. I turned it off, pulled the battery, drained it, let it sit for about a day to dry then checked if it still worked. It was totally fine. Another time I had a T43 sitting on the high arm rest of a couch, open, and knocked it onto the floor where it fell directly on the corner of the display. It was also fine.

Well, I once worked at a games company that used Java. One of my colleagues coded up a small application that could run 'live' and provide detailed information about running code. The kind of stuff that I, as a Smalltalker new to the Java ecosystem, assumed was normal.

This is when I realized that a proper Smalltalk running on the JVM would have revolutionized development in this company. Imagine developing your games in a 'live' environment, without all the lengthy recompiles and elusive errors. In other words, game development within the game itself. Much smoother, less stress, and a 'finger on the pulse' of running code.
