I have an old IBM System x3550 M3 running in my attic.

It cost me $50 + a new ssd. It's been great fun to play with. 12Gig of ram and 16 threads so it can do more than enough for me. I found it a bit slow for game hosting but for the price I can't complain.

I also have a couple of cheap VPS, but having a server on the same network is much snappier and I can throw large files around with ease.
In the past tesla sold the same hardware & number of batteries in two car models, but saved 10k in price for the shorter range one; and you could upgrade to the longer range by paying more. Just like for CPUs. In the new mid-range m 3 they have fewer batteries than the long range. Tesla eventually stopped selling the software upgradeable one, maybe because they bugged people.
> "Literally, anything that looks like an Apple part, but isn't an Apple part according to Apple, gets blocked. Think about the implications of that."

The implication is that we are correctly enforcing trademark law... Or are you saying that anyone should be allowed to import anything with anyone's brand on it? Because congratulations, you have now destroyed the value and purpose of every single trademark.

Remember, the issue was NOT that they "looked like" Apple parts, the issue was that the parts had an actual Apple logo printed on them when they were not parts sourced through Apple.

This is just the stupidest issue. All Louis Rossmann had to do is purchase his non-genuine third party laptop batteries without an Apple logo printed on them, and he would have been legally entitled to them. He could have his batteries, he could perform the repairs, everyone would be happy.

With his complaint he is effectively saying is that trademarks mean shit and anyone can use anyone else's brand whenever they want. It's absurd. And it's a loser case. If he tries to fight Apple, he won't win.
If your work can't hold up against the assaults of a "certified internet genius" then it doesn't warrant serious consideration.

Yes, I think it lacks an understanding of human nature to think that a manager wouldn't give someone bad reviews just because they don't like them. Though, I bet a lot of times managers do this unconsciously, especially as one tends to see more faults with people they don't like.

It's funny, I've met a lot of people that thought dsp and algorithms engineering to be magic and yet I find those fields to be a straightforward and fun. On the other hand I have a year of professional experience in ARM Cortex M4 programming and I find it to be magic that any somewhat complex embedded system works. Flip one bit the wrong way and the whole fracking system won't even boot. It took me six months and a significant chunk of my professional reputation to get some biomedical algorithms to interface with offline data on a fat16 formatted USB device.

> Why did OpenBSD silently release a patch before the embargo?
OpenBSD announced an errata on 30 August 2017 that silently prevented our key reinstallation attacks. More specifically, patches were released for both OpenBSD 6.0 and OpenBSD 6.1.

> We notified OpenBSD of the vulnerability on 15 July 2017, before CERT/CC was involved in the coordination. Quite quickly, Theo de Raadt replied and critiqued the tentative disclosure deadline: “In the open source world, if a person writes a diff and has to sit on it for a month, that is very discouraging”. Note that I wrote and included a suggested diff for OpenBSD already, and that at the time the tentative disclosure deadline was around the end of August. As a compromise, I allowed them to silently patch the vulnerability. In hindsight this was a bad decision, since others might rediscover the vulnerability by inspecting their silent patch. To avoid this problem in the future, OpenBSD will now receive vulnerability notifications closer to the end of an embargo.

In other words: "We said they could make their users more secure by applying the patch, and they did."
I don't think a field medic level of medical training will be enough to handle the complications involving living/birthing/growing in reduced gravity.

The effects of reduced gravity are largely an unknown. It could range from minor physical alterations to crippling disabilities. We won't know until mammal trials. Due to the cost it's likely the mammal trials will be human.

It's possible extra medical staff could have other jobs, but professional doctors will be a requirement of the population.
They also stopped doing this practice, the new mid range m 3 have fewer batteries and are not software upgradeable. Is this better? Not sure.

Interesting. Since they're speculating a link between cortisol and alzheimer's and there's already established linkages between cortisol and herpes reactivation [1], herpes spreading to the brain in certain vulnerable populations [2], herpes activation in the brain and an amyloid response [3], and a potential mitigation for symptoms by arresting herpes activation [4], I wonder if the cortisol/alzheimer's link might evaporate of the herpes/alzheimer's hypothesis continues to prove out in drug trials?

About Tizen
Given that Apple doesn't sell its batteries or screen assemblies to anyone in any country, it's therefore impossible for them to be legitimately parallel-imported and therefore trivial for Customs to suspect them of being counterfeit or stolen. That's why they're getting caught.

But I don't get why anyone is complaining because the solution is INSANELY simple: if you want to parallel import parts from China, make sure they don't have Apple logos printed on them. That's an absurdly low bar to clear. It's so low that it makes me wonder if these controversies are being—pardon the pun—manufactured.
I don't think that's accurate either, though. I charged from 5% to the max daily limit (not the trip limit) in 25 minutes and it gave me approximately 264 miles. When I last charged to the full trip limit, I had 314 miles on the car and that took about 40 minutes.

So, even if I just charged every time to the daily limit, I'd still have about the same range as a gas car and I can't fill up my gas car at home on a regular basis. That benefit alone outweighs the cons of a slightly longer trip for me.

PS. Slow down. ;). If you're only getting 160 miles from the daily charge, you're driving pretty fast or using up power in some other way.

Yeah -- I'm saying it's dubious that there's magic here "doing the setState queue for you" -- notice the function call isn't bound and there's no passing of "this", so it's gotta' got some magic under the hood with some global context.

I do, however, like the concept for the react style of render -- being able to grab a getter/setter from that is awesome. They can remove the magic by simply doing:

const [getter, setter] = this.useState(...)
My new HDD started having problems in just 1.5 years.I just salvaged an old HDD from my dad's 9 year old laptop (Dell Vostro) and used it.

This old laptop is what I would go to whenever I was between laptops. It's a C2D, 4GB RAM. I installed debian with i3 and it was good enough for browsing internet, to do random coding stuff, reading PDFs, watching movies (although it would run hot). Also I played a lot of Roller Coaster Tycoon[1] on it. Man, I love RCT!! I just might plug in an SSD in it during the next windfall.

That's actually the limiting factor, otherwise you could just compile Qt to WASM and draw to a canvas.

But here's the thing. I am not transgender, and if somebody misgendered me, it would both offensive and wrong. Somebody can believe that I'm a woman with their whole heart and being, but that doesn't make it so; my identity isn't defined by their belief or their opinion. There _have_ been people who honestly, truly, legitimately believed I was a woman, and yet I wasn't.

It seems only intuitive that if I get to define my own gender identity, as I have and as the world lets me, then everybody else should get that same privilege. And yes, I would say that denying that privilege from some people while granting it to others is inherently hateful.

You can swing your fist all you like, but you can't punch me in the face and claim that I'm infringing on your right to swing freely. You can have all the personal beliefs you like, but as soon as you start imposing them on somebody else's identity, they're not personal beliefs anymore and you don't get to enforce them on other people. When you misgender somebody else, you're imposing your own personal beliefs on them, and that's wrong.

The police complaining that prostitutes don’t work with them is so annoying.

I’m sorry, if you’re not arresting the Johns and the pimps, or you’re putting undercover officers down to catch individual prostitutes, then why would you /ever/ expect help?

It’s why things like any politician who favors tougher sex laws that functionally only punish the prostitute is very simply supporting and enabling pimps, pedofiles, and traffickers. Anything that makes it harder for a prostitute to go to the police is very simply enabling the abusers.

> The implication is that we are correctly enforcing trademark law... Or are you saying that anyone should be allowed to import anything with anyone's brand on it?

I think what's being said (well, implied) is that the first-sale doctrine states that those trademark rights are limited, and that by blocking imports, those right may be being violated (specifically, the right to resell).

If that's the case, that would mean that we are incorrectly enforcing trademark law.

Edit: To make it absolutely clear what I'm talking about, if I as a U.S. citizen go to China, and I have some used iphones, and I try to ship them to the U.S. after people buy them from me, does Apple's special handling prevent me from reselling Apple products? If so, that may be violating my rights.

RPerl compiles Perl 5 into C++, which can then be further compiled into a binary or shared object or bytecode or whatever you like with your own favorite C++ compiler. Yes, you can consider RPerl to be a "transpiler" if you like the term. The resulting C++ code has virtually no runtime overhead, and thus runs at least at the speed of native C++. RPerl also offers automatic parallelization via integration with the PLUTO polycc compiler collection, which can often provide faster-than-normal-C++ performance.

It might surprise you, but Apple does sell all of those. The products that you are looking for are called for example iPhones and MacBooks.
Very cool feature. It reminds me of MobX where changing the observable value auto queues a render. It’s super productive. With hooks calling the setter auto queues a render too.

I’ve had a few embarrassing bugs in the past where the page route changes but it’s the same component so it doesn’t call componentDidMount and doesn’t fetch the new data. It looks like hooks default to fetching data too often instead of not enough which feels correct. Instead of users wondering why the page is broken your team is wondering why the server is getting 1000x more requests.

Qt is a set of interoperating libraries for the development of cross-platform graphical applications. It covers a lot of topics from abstracting basis operating system services to various ways to create the actual UI (with traditional widget hierarchies instantiated in C++ code, declaratively using QML...) and advanced features like embedded webkit or interfacing with OpenGL or Vulkan.

The library has two core strengths: it works on virtually every platform that can run a GUI and the application code can be made to be pretty much agnostic of the underlying OS. Unless an application uses OS interfaces directly for fancy things, most of the porting work is just recompiling the code.
The "pluggability of Perl at all levels" is a goal meant to move us away from the existing Perl 5 core design, which is mostly C macros and is essentially unmaintainable. Even if we never truly achieve pluggability on ALL levels, we must at least work TOWARD that goal, in order to achieve the other big plans such as reintegration of Perl 5 + Perl 6, and C/C++ performance, etc.
