I agree Tesla could do much better on range by now, just as they've shown with the semi. They don't because they want to be profitable sooner and also because not many competitors have caught up yet. There's no reason why there shouldn't be a 200kwh model s within the next 2 years with a minimum of 100kwh.

I've seen a number of social network groups being sold for their audiences and then rebranded to sell questionable things. I've even seen something similar done to some YouTube channel I once subscribed to: its owner (new or not, can't really tell this time) changed its name/images/whatever, removed all the videos and started publishing things that I never wanted to be in my feed. Things will only get worse the moment YouTube allows to change videos under the same URL.
That quotation is prefaced as "lessons I hope to take to heart". He's not commanding everyone to do it.
That would definitely be cool, we see them fairly often in modern scifi films/shows too nowadays.
Christ I almost forgot about Three Investigators, but I really liked them at the time. "The green backs" as I thought of them (Nancy Drew was red) Probably one of those things you should never re-read though. Using Alfred Hitchcock as "cover author" must have really paid off

https://www.theguardian.com/books/booksblog/2010/sep/23/thre...

"The Three Investigators were created by Robert Arthur, who wrote the first few books and then oversaw and edited the rest of the series. It was he who had the brainwave of having Alfred Hitchcock as the patron of the team. Hitch introduced each case, and often called them in to set them off on their latest adventure. It was this intrusion of real life into a fictional world that cemented my relationship with the Three Investigators. Could these stories possibly be true ... ?"

And...

"The real magic, though, was in the boys' headquarters, hidden among the piles of junk in Uncle Titus's scrapyard. Built from an abandoned trailer, the secret base was accessed via a series of ingenious secret passages, with the codenames Green Gate One, Tunnel Two, and Red Gate Rover – the latter so named because it was hidden behind a painting of a dog."
Wow...this is actually huge. Finally a big player for ARM based server!
>"Studies have shown that taking notes by longhand will help you remember important meeting points better than tapping notes out on your laptop or smartphone."

By "doing it" I meant the thought process, the selecting process of what's important, not the medium in which you do your "whole studying".

Also that study means that taking notes by hands is better than with a computer. It doesn't mean learning with paper and pencil is better than with a computer, especially when we involve other things like a spaced repetition software.

Fair enough, and the parent topic about /switching/ between broadly similar technology like operating systems is where departments usually go awry. My axe to grind is about initial selection when starting from scratch (do you really need fad tech? Statistically, likely not), or playing nicely in an existing environment and being very careful with new tech (can the company internalize and support fad tech? Statistically, likely not)
Just sharing my personal experience.

Context: I use XFS as the default file system on all HPC compute nodes, and few other servers that run CentOS7.
I built a FreeBSD+ZFS backup server recently to mirror our primary NAS.

The experience with ZFS was so smooth and logical. All I needed was the ZFS section from the FreeBSD handbook, and I actually understood what was going on underneath to a reasonable extent. No magic - "run this command" without explanation. Once spools are set, ZFS datasets provide the equivalent of logical volumes you were asking for. You get a lot of tunables at that level, and they come with sensible defaults. The whole process is simple, heck you can even make a file act as a zpool for learning or testing purposes.

Once done, I was testing performance rudimentarily and saw that it was almost saturating the network pipes beating my expectations without any time spent on custom perf tuning.

And I get snapshots and online compression, SW RAID out of the box.

I may be able to achieve most of it with XFS, some specific hardware and lot of hours of tuning, but it will never match the experience with ZFS.

Well, it should at least be possible to become master. "I know how this works but someone else did the grunt work".

I always aim for simple to use tools, if I need to I can dig deeper and just-fix-the-problem. Or replace it at a whim.

So I agree with you.

Infrastructure code is really tough when it's scaling, so keep your modules in shape/order and small/easy.
I don't get why you think such rules exist in war. In wars of disagreements you can talk about geneva convention and what not but when you're literally saving your people from death and mass rape-murder(nanjing massacare) the only surprise is how lenient the US was.

The fact that the US hangs around a country aftet wars to help rebuild and control/stabilize the postwar government should also be considered. For future security,vengeance and a lesson to others it would be the typical route to commit genoicide and eradicate the germans,japanese and italians or at least permanently displace them from their homeland (which is what happens historically).

The lesson here isn't how the US should or shouldn't have used nukes or how terrible the Japanese and Germans were. The lesson behind ww2 is it shouldn't happen again. Period.

This is what happens in full on wars. Drill into your childrens minds the horrors of war so they're careful to never let it happen again. We now have the US,Russia and China yet again setting themselves on a global collision course. Americans don't know ww2 well enough to avert a repeat of it. They elect hitler like madmen,extremists and are perfecectly with spending 20% of the gdp on defence in times of peace. Russians who suffered more than americans in ww2 support a trigger happy egotistical leader. Horrors of ww2 should be shown to children with explicit detail. We need adults that understand what war means.

I'll tell you another thing,the US and most nuclear powers would not hesitate to change the rules and use a nuke again to avert losing a war. First use policy only applies when you're not getting invaded or a significant number of civilians killed.
As someone who also EXCLUSIVELY buys phones with minijacks I'd say that they're definitely losing, considering that the brands that carry them right now seem to only be Samsung (rumored to drop them next year) and LG. Currently I use the oneplus 6 but they dropped it for the 6T so they're out of the race. It's starting to look like the next time I upgrade it'll have to be to LG and that's assuming they stick to it.
Content creators are contractees. YouTube is in the video hosting business, advertisement is an (rather profitable) enablement over that.

"You're holding it wrong"
If your code 1) runs the first time with no non-trivial errors or obvious bugs, 2) does at least what you intended it to do, reliably, efficiently, and isn't easily de-railed...

then you're getting close. If 3) you find you can easily and quickly modify it to add features... months later... that's closer still.

Of course if you have to answer to someone about why you did it this way or that way, or who can't comprehend your code, then (in that environment) you may have farther to go.

Longer, bigger, harder projects may test your skills. Be your own best critic, always strive to do more with less.
His ranting style is unhelpful but the underlying point is sound—Apple device owners update the operating software at a dramatically higher rate and frequency than any other significant competitor platform. If there is a contingent of iOS device users “conditioned” to avoid upgrades, it would be impossible to prove this contingent exists statistically.

Frequent vocal complainers on internet forums probably only account for less than 0.01% of their installed base.
They were removed only when few people used them because there was a better alternative. Many, many people use headphones with 3,5 mm plugs and it is not at all clear that the alternative is better.

Everyone's wailing about US <> Saudi relations with regard to Khashoggi. Was anyone suggesting trade relations with the US should be dropped due to their war on Iraq, which, by all accounts, killed more than one person.

Coalition of the complicit.
We tend to see the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki now through the lens of the thermonuclear age where superpowers had vast arsenals of thermonuclear tipped weapons ready to fly at a few minutes notice. As the first and only nuclear weapons used we assume that these must somehow be set-apart and treated as special, a lot of people also assume that they were specifically authorised by Truman (as the use of nuclear weapons was a strictly controlled presidential prerogative during the nuclear age).

Another way of looking at it is not as the first nuclear bombing but as the last bombing of the second world war. In that context, even the deadlier of the two, Hiroshima, doesn't seem any worse than the strategic bombing in the rest of the war. Not just Tokyo and other Japanese cities, but the bombing raids on Germany, the Blitz in the UK, not to mention the vast horrors inflicted on civilians in Eastern Europe and in China. This context also explains why the last explicit order to use the bombs was weeks before they were dropped and came from General Groves, while there was some high level discussion about targets, the prosecution of the war was a purely military matter.

Of course in retrospect, people began to see nuclear weapons as uniquely horrible, but that's really only because they became so powerful and so numerous.
I don't think it is different? I think even allowing edits to the video content would open up the door to replacing a video with something unrelated but retaining the views & popularity etc.
I have often thought about this (why didn't they drop the bombs at a few villages not very far from Tokyo to make the point?). Today I found in this thread and the 2016 discusssion two good(I think) reasons, one was to race against Stalin's possible invasion of Japan, another was to clearly showcase the power of the US to the _world_, not merely to the Japanese, in preparation for the ensuring cold war.

I am also very strongly against having 2.4GHz Bluetooth radiation wrapped right around my head. There is a good chance this doesn’t matter but some chance that it does. No one knows. I refuse to be forced guinea pig in this wireless headset experiment.
I really enjoyed that too. I was a teenager then and although in the UK I was very aware of the military and world situation. That series was a very good reminder of what the world felt like then.
Well it is pretty clear that the alternative is at least satisfactory.

Because iPhone sales aren't dropping because of the headphone jack and people seem to be enjoying Bluetooth headphones given how popular those are.
Isolate all memory so a failure is compartamentalized

Discriminate between the error-kernel of the program and the rest. The kernel is the part which is not allowed to fail. Goal: keep it small.

Discriminate between errors you have seen happen, and everything else. Handle the errors you've seen. It looks a bit like Go's handling, but only for things where you know you have an error flow. There are also exceptions, but they are somewhat rarer in typical code.

On an unhandled error, crash the isolated process. This produces, a state of the memory, a stack trace and eventually the last few messages sent to that process.

The system has a recovery model which will restart failed processes from a last known good state.

The programming language is functional, and quite much so, so there are orders of magnitude fewer errors relating to state manipulation.

One typical approach is to use the crash as a way to learn about errors that can happen, then patch those errors by handling them. Because you have a strategy for reactively handling errors, it is far less dangerous to have them in th e program, as long as they are under a noise floor.
I don't understand where the "fraud" line is. I suspect many more don't either.

It's common knowledge that to get a good network startup going, you need to sock-puppet the hell out of it. It's common knowledge that Amazon is full of scam reviews. It's common knowledge that many Twitter followers are fake, or bots. It's common knowledge that Instagram pics are photoshopped-up.

So when you see a picture of an attractive person on Instagram using some product, go to your Twitter to see a famous person recommend it, then click over to Amazon to read raving reviews, is that fraud? Because that's how the web works. It's the same exact game, you just don't give the money directly to your buddy.

>Aside from that thing called radiation

Have you heard of "unexploded ordnance"? It's fallout that all conventional weapons become when they fail to explode, and unlike fallout it never actually goes away until someone digs it up. They come in many sizes; it either blows up you and the entire city block (if it's a larger bomb), or maybe just you and the guy standing next to you (if it's a cluster bomb unit or a mortar shell), or maybe it just takes your legs off (if it's a mine or a hand grenade).

Europeans (Germans and French in particular), Africans, and people in certain Southeast Asian countries are very familiar with this concept; there has fortunately been no armed conflict on North American soil at a technology level that generates such fallout. The people of France will have to live for at least the next thousand years with the Zone Rouge (for reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zone_Rouge), while not only have Hiroshima and Nagasaki been completely rebuilt but Ground Zero is perfectly habitable to the point of being an active tourist attraction.

As far as nuclear arms control goes, the most intellectually honest lens with which to view it is through standard gun control with the nation-state as the individual actor; if that view is that the gun should be restricted to higher authorities only (and that it is hazardous to have too many in the hands of the common citizen/state), then the fact that the US feels entitled to tell others who should and shouldn't have a gun is entirely consistent with that. Perhaps that authority can't be held to account (because they have a gun and all you have is a promise that it won't be abused), but that's the trade-off.

Perhaps the issue is that nuclear weapons aren't sufficiently easy to acquire; nations that are actually opposed to the American sphere of influence would then be better able to resist both overt and covert bullying by said Americans. (Whether or not that bullying results in a net positive for humanity is left as an exercise for the reader.)

Not an answer to parent comments, just wanted to emphasize that coming from "somewhere else" <=/=> invasive. Not an expert so there are likely edge cases but one example would be a meadow where many different plants grow, flowering from early spring to late autumn. Introducing a new plant could mean it finds its own niche in this system or could mean that it completely takes over the whole system, reducing the overall flowering period to a limited time and thus causing problems for pollinators. If the latter is the typical result, the plant would likely become classed as invasive.
That's an interesting number set. The set of all points that can be produced from a straight-edge and the grid of integers.

I'm pretty sure this is just the grid of rational numbers. Interestingly, this is a subset of the 'constructible' numbers. That is, the numbers that can be produced from a compass and straight-edge (without even needing a grid).

I bought a new TV recently and it still has a headphone socket and no option for bluetooth.

I would find it more useful to have a Bluetooth headset for my TV than I would for my phone.
1) There are many reasons to get a new phone, the biggest one is battery life, after a few years your phone will not last as long as when you bought it. Also a smaller reason are security updates, since they are quite needed due to the increased processing power available.

This also depends on where the market goes, because pretty much all phone manufacturers follow Apple's lead to some extent. Removing the headphone jack, the notch and curved screen corners, and the non-replaceable battery are all features that Apple popularised.

So it may not be possible to get a phone without these features any more in the future.
I mean, it’s much easier to update if you own the entire platform
