Well, looks like Semiaccurate was right about Rome's architecture. Personally I'm excited about the wider vector units.
Here’s a review of the entry-level model: https://iphone.appleinsider.com/articles/18/11/06/mac-mini-2...

It outperforms every previous mac mini, and doesn’t benchmark that far below the 2018 i7 macbook pro. This is a desktop i3, the desktop-class cpu’s are a different performance class from the mobile line.
I can't find a reference, but I remember reading about someone who was walking around some area of [San Francisco?], experiencing a weird sense of deja vu, being incredibly familiar with the environment, despite having never been there. Then they realised - it'd been featured as a level in one of the Tony Hawk's games :)

Funnily enough for me, to get to sleep last night I was retracing steps in favoured levels from Team Fortress 2, which I've not played in years, and was a little concerned about how vivid my memories seemed. Useless information taking up increasingly valuable neurons... . Oh well.
@PlainSite on Twitter has been going through injury reports from the Tesla clinic, and it seems Tesla may have even had fake MDs signing documents.

This scenario happened not in San Francisco, but in Oakland with Jean Quan's election.

Since then the second-tier candidates have done what you say about promoting each other: "vote for me and for X". If one loses, the other could win in the next round. IRV has a moderating influence on how candidates campaign. By making a bid for those later rounds viable, now everyone has an incentive to build strong coalitions before they even get into office.

Would another system work better? Maybe, but I still count it as an improvement over FPTP.
It depends a bit on the phrasing, but in all cases where someone asked if we would pay for vulnerability reports and we replied we would not pay, only offer acknowledgement on our security page, they would still share the report.

If you are going to pay, make sure you clearly state scope and the type of exploits you pay for. Otherwise there is a high probability of it being something in the realm of being able to iframe your site.
I also use a Synology. And a Raspberry Pi as the client.
OP is an IP lawyer right? Food for thought is free, answers cost.
I agree that "uniform" wasn't the right word, I was thinking more about cooperating and managing taxes as a whole (in order to find a compromise that would benefit everybody). It doesn't mean that everybody would have the same taxes but at least there would be some level of coherency.

>In the US it works by forcing states to compete on regulation and taxes which benefits everyone.

Everyone except the environment at least, it's often the first regulation to go. This kind of competition gives an edge to rich people and big companies who can afford to relocate if they dislike the way they're taxed or regulated somewhere, meanwhile low-skilled workers and small companies can't generally move a thousand of km away on a whim.

In Europe this is even worse because we have cultural and language barriers. Even for an educated worker moving from London to Berlin to Paris to Prague is not a simple thing at all. The only ones who benefit from this infighting are large companies and rich people who can more easily relocate their income in order to get the best deal possible.

See the whole Amazon HQ2 thing for an example of that in the US, you end up with a huge company getting great benefits that no small player could ever dream of. How is that fair and how does that benefit everyone? How does tech giants moving to Ireland to pay less taxes benefit everyone? It benefits Ireland arguably, but overall the EU gets less money than we otherwise would.

I mean just for the sake of the argument we could imagine that the EU as a whole would agree to tax these tech giants a certain amount, bigger than what Ireland makes them pay now. Then we give the Irish exactly the same amount they're currently receiving and we redistribute the rest within the EU. Wouldn't we be objectively better off in this scenario?

Now of course that would be a weird arrangement but you see my point, the real winners here are Google and Facebook, not Ireland, Germany or Poland.

Third that. This book is incredible and gripping. There is no soft intro, you are thrown into the story from the first paragraph.
The ability to identify opportunities, sell people on working with you, risk manage, and pure grunt work (talking with lawyers, etc.), moving fast, are just a few of the skills required in business that were all applicable here.

Automating trades with python might be more relatable for you. But the point is, it's not just technical skills like that that "translate to a viable business."
It's not a shortage of ambulances but more an issue of not having any hospital in a 100 miles radius.
This almost certainly won't happen. First, because "P vs NP" is a very well-studied problem and many complex technical constraints have been proved about what kinds of things can and cannot be part of "P" algorithm for an NP-complete problem. There's no way to be educate enough to be able express something that could possibly be a well-formed proof (and not made meaningless by its vaguess) without knowing enough to navigate these concerns and therefore appreciating the magnitude of the problem.

Second, because the proof won't be useful outside of arcane theory. If P != NP, that verifies something everyone already asumes, so it wouldn't change much except for abstract curiosity of a few experts able to comprehend the complexity of the meaning.
Been using MemSQL for a enterprise-level financial services client since mid-2017. We have this in production and are running it in a multi-TB cluster. We've not seen ANY of these issues here and are heavy, crazy query users. Their support has been nothing but on-the-spot and very helpful.
Communism would have all ERs equally shitty and expensive [to the taxpayer]. Is that all that better?

How would the query/data not be what I expect if If I'm writing the query myself, and looking directly at the sql table definition to create it?

Beyond those considerations, why would the same exact same query (executed several times in rapid succession from the console) produce vastly different results? Also, I should clarify, rewriting the query from "select ... from xyz group by ... having ..." to "select ... from (select * from xyz where ...) group by ..." made the inconsistency goes away, without changing the filtering clause. That does not inspire confidence.
It makes me thrilled to see that we're finally talking about data around gender issues, regardless of what that data actually says. It seems like we're finally getting over the taboo and we're mature enough to look at facts.

Riverdale Season 2: Let’s explore the suspense
(Un)fortunately, normal people don't think like programmers. That's why security questions exist, in the first place. Do you think they won't accept "It's to be repeated exactly, and then gschgschgsch. Ahh, youth. Those were the days."

If you think that's bad: I always enter a fake phone nr. Once, a company turned out to use them as verification for phone support. I didn't know, and had forgotten, so gave my actual number. "Oh, it says something else here. Shall I just go ahead and remove that, then?". I wanted to cry.

Don't play games.
Yes this is of course all speculation. I’m just pattern-matching based on my experience and superficial observation of the facts. If you’ve met them a few times, it looks like you are too, no?

Objectively, this is a pretty great outcome. So you could say they had a good strategy and executed well on it. And their engineering team looks great, no argument there.
radare2 lets you take snapshots of memory and registers and restore them, but it doesn't let you, say, record the entire execution of multi-process Firefox from startup to shutdown and later replay that perfectly. It's not capturing the effects of the environment that you need to make that work.

presents significant and unique opportunities to move vertically and/or horizontally to improve your situation

If you are better paid than the existing employees it's actually more likely that your salary will be frozen until it "harmonises" with them. You are also unlikely to have the contacts at the acquirer for an interesting lateral move, even if its permitted in the terms of the acquisition, I think the last time we were told there would be no internal transfers for the first two years.
I disagree that the best outcome is full immediate public disclosure. N (where N may be 0) bad actors abusing the vulnerability is not necessarily worse than releasing the vulnerability to where any script kiddie can abuse it.

A direct example is right here - ArtChain is now completely unusable because someone decided it would be funny to redirect their homepage to Pornhub. Sure, they had it coming, but I'd wager at least a few readers here had to hurried explain to a coworker why they were looking at porn at work.

(Granted, it's not a good example, because the researcher in question did reach out, and the incompetent idiot showed his ass to the entire internet, but immediate full disclosure would have had the same effect.)

I also agree that just sitting on the vuln and pleading with an idiot is not a productive use of anyone's time.

We hire the top 5% of applicants. This says a lot about our applicant pool. It says very little about our team. No one here is from a top program. Many don't even have CS degrees.
Sure, that's possible but then you're just dealing with relatively blind speculation. I would assume there's no issues on the investment side unless there's strong reason to believe there is.
Oculus Founder: Price Isn't What's Holding VR Back from Mass Adoption
I like the feel of the keyboard. I did not like the trip to the Mac store at 8 months whereby they very gingerly lifted the spacebar and removed whatever crumb was under there making it mushy.

I also like the touchbar. The touch-slide volume is a nifty improvement...I use the touchbar for the occasional screengrab...and that's about it. As someone mentioned above, I too would really like a physical Escape key
I don't think it's dubbed. Just out of sync.
Voter suppression is surprisingly open, there were two cases just this morning of poll workers verbally abusing black voters in Austin and Houston to discourage them from voting. The generation raised with segregation has a few decades left to influence things. Also Texas might be the hardest place in the United States to register for new voters - so even demographic changes could take decades to work there way through.

The whole point is that the system that exists isn't providing me the option to shape society "as I see fit". Not voting signals the missed opportunity to politicians more clearly than voting for the slightly lesser of two evils. Writing in a protest vote for "a real democracy" might signal this a little more strongly, but my time is valuable to me.
> I mean, your argument holds true for everything. And yet, look around us and compare to any instance of communism on various extents. Capitalism is always better.

Modern mixed economies are better, but there is a reason capitalism as a system (rather than a component of another system) died sooner than Soviet-style communism, to the extent that we now unironically call mixed economies with large socialized elements “capitalism”.

Among mixed economies, it's not the more strongly capitalist ones that have the most efficient, effective, or publicly popular health care systems, either.

I don't understand how you could owe taxes on a company that didn't have revenue. Can you explain how you came to owe 100k? Is it some sort of penalty for not remitting forms?
People don’t produce goods to sell ( so profits and revenue are actually not really relevant concepts). They’re the endpoint of the economy so they’re a very special item. Same reason something called VAT only apply to them.
My guess would be generous liquidation preference and possibility to force IPO or liquidation event.
Yeah exactly, many people did it. And the people with family and friends in Korea could have done it much more easily and closed that window out much sooner than someone in America who didn't speak the language and didn't have the connections.

// Oversimplified napkin math for fun, stop taking this seriously //

> Around 60% of the money promised to the Vision Fund by investors other than SoftBank takes the form of debtlike securities that earn a 7% fixed return annually.

They get $70B and have to pay 7% fixed annually. S&P rate of return on average is 9.7%. Softbank could pocket 2.7% of $70B ($1.89B a year) by just investing in an index. With $70B you could stay solvent longer than the market can remain irrational, so you're operating with very little risk. (Ignoring all the difficulties in investing that much, etc)

Maybe SoftBank likes debt because even if they have no where to invest they'd still make $2B/year.

EDIT: This isn't a serious comment, literally just throwing numbers in the air for fun. I know very little about investing.
Well, the point as I understand it is that it will eventually lead to the extinction of all/most bees - and plenty of other species, perhaps including humans.

As an interviewer, I've been in this situation. I hate interviewing other people and felt really guilty about it, but I didn't have control over what I asked. I've also been in situations where I wouldn't be able to answer the questions I'm asking if I hadn't just learned or reviewed them for the sake of interviewing itself. It's so stupid.

Indeed.

Criteo is « just an ad business » ( which is going to take a huge hit from all the privacy measures, btw). It’s extremely vulnerable compared to the company that own the content platform, aka the search engine, or the social network. Calling them a competitor to google is true, but it’s also a very narrow point of view.

Just look at how well it’s doing on the stock exchange and you’ll see what i mean,
Range voting is challenging because people often have difficulty putting an exact number on how much they want something, and also scales differ between different people. On a 0-10 scale, some people will be putting every candidate as either 0 or 10; others will always put in 3 and 7; and this depends a lot more on the voter than the candidate.

Approval voting is simple enough, but is vulnerable to bullet voting: approving an additional candidate can make your first choice lose. This makes it unsuitable if your goal is to make third-party voting more viable, which seems to be the premise of the article.

Sure, but the authors of larger magazines typically do not get to keep (or even use) the product for their own private purposes, so they're not nearly as invested and have far less reason to be biased.

I've heard many companies "forget" to ask for their seeded samples back, particularly those sent to so-called influencers.
If they don’t actually move away (and find work locally), then they just trade rent $ for a lower net hourly wage (hours worked + commute time), perhaps to their benefit - changing jobs is not frictionless, but it’s not like it’s a bad economy

I've managed medium sized Cassandra clusters (~18 nodes) for a couple years (since v1.2). At a new job, last year, I replaced the Cassandra cluster with Scylla. Performance was great, as it says on the in, but as an operator:

- No GC Tuning. It just works out of the box and I don't sleep over requests being dropped because of a multi-second GC.

- Compactions are fast. Compactions in Cassandra generate a lot of garbage (which cause a lot of GC), and end up taking a long time. This becomes worrisome as your largest, most compacted tables tend to be the ones you write a lot too - so performance degrades over time (until you have to shard again).

Cassandra is still very good software though and still a solid choice - it was far more stable than Mongo (pre-WiredTiger, I haven't used mongo past ~2.2), and while the above issues were annoying, they were entirely predictable. Capacity planning was easy, and with Scylla you may find yourself running fewer nodes (maybe DSE prefers Java because they charge per core, jk).

The only thing I've missed in Scylla so far is LWTs, but I have not used that much.
Good point. I think also debt’s effect is the perfect alignment for their “last” stage investing where risk and return are lower.

> They pay VAT for sells in your country. It doesn't matter if it's consumer or a company paying the tax, the amount is added to the price. If you want them tax then increase that.

VAT is tax for consumers, not corporations.

> Why do you feel entitled to profits of the company that isn't based in your country?

Because those profits are made from sales in that country, and every physical company selling in that country pays their taxes, just because Internet-based companies can avoid having a physical presence to perform their sales (Amazon still has warehouses), doesn't make them exempt from the same logic.
They actually link to another blog post (https://www.citusdata.com/blog/2018/06/14/scalable-increment...) that solves this with pg_sequence_last_value().

If you and your dining partner rank the kind of restaurants you'd like to go to tonight.

You rank 1) Indian 2) Chinese and 3) Italian

Your partner ranks 1) Gastropub 2) Chinese and 3) Steakhouse

you're going to get Chinese food, not because it exists on a line between each of your first choices, but because it is acceptable to each of you, if not preferred. It is a compromise by definition.
You know, reading about Ranked Pair voting you have just made a convert of me. This is a fantastic method.

You'll never be able to sell it to the general public, of course, but if you could do it for just one election I think you'd have everyone on board just from the results of it.
