It looks like by default, the GNU libc won't return pages to the OS until 128 KiB are free at the top of the heap segment. The compiler has to make many small allocations, so even if it freed memory at every opportunity I doubt the heap trimming would happen very often.

On the flip side elsiver wouldn't be getting papers published from UCLA right? I don't know how that situation works. But UCLA is pretty big, so I would think they would be losing access to papers also.
I dunno, it got my kids to fall asleep last night. I'm feeling pretty good about it right now.

Be careful in using group_concat in mysql - it actually truncates the result to the max_len setting which is by default 1024 and will not tell you it truncates the result in the logs. it took us forever to find the cause of this issue in one of our batch jobs (I wish mysql issued a warning when truncating):

"In MySQL, you can get the concatenated values of expression combinations. To eliminate duplicate values, use the DISTINCT clause. To sort values in the result, use the ORDER BY clause. To sort in reverse order, add the DESC (descending) keyword to the name of the column you are sorting by in the ORDER BY clause. The default is ascending order; this may be specified explicitly using the ASC keyword. The default separator between values in a group is comma (,). To specify a separator explicitly, use SEPARATOR followed by the string literal value that should be inserted between group values. To eliminate the separator altogether, specify SEPARATOR ''.

The result is truncated to the maximum length that is given by the group_concat_max_len system variable, which has a default value of 1024. The value can be set higher, although the effective maximum length of the return value is constrained by the value of max_allowed_packet. The syntax to change the value of group_concat_max_len at runtime is as follows, where val is an unsigned integer"

It's sad that I'm not surprised that a company would put profit over life. I'm saddened by the fact but not surprised.

What really gets me is that baby powder is marketed towards young mothers and babies. That's a hardcore attitude towards money over life. How can they ever defend that?
Early stage hiccups aside, my observations have usually been that skiers continue to progress in skill relatively smoothly, but that snow-boarders usually progress rapidly to boarding a lot of terrain, but doing it 'ugly', and very few boarders progress to the point of carving.
I kind feel the same about the US. The majority of the horror stories about people being forced to spit out password and getting devices taken away for copying...straight out of the country that spends all its time exporting "freedom".

Pretty happy in Europe. China, Russia and America all seem dodgy AF lately. Overtly so...I shudder to think what happens behind the scenes.

A high-speed internet connection can and hopefully more so in the future, put you close to nature. All I meant to say is that working remotely doesn't necessarily imply needing or wanting a more cultured city. It depends on what a person values.

The goal is to move future papers to a copy-cat, duplicate journal. The copyright of future papers still belong to their authors.
It's only an issue if you allow untrusted code to run arbitrary SQL statements, which should never be done.
The question are: Where is the vulnerability? By executing user-specified SQL statements (with or without setting an authorizer callback; I have once reported a bug causing SQLite to segfault in some cases when the authorizer callback denies something)? By downloading a corrupt database? In some extension (if so, in what extension)? In the VFS? What circumstances are needed to exploit this?

Where have you heard this about Chinese culture in particular? I’ve only heard of such a trait in reading Robert Altemeyer’s book The Authoritarians, where it is described as a common trait of right wing authoritarians, who appear to not be very good about comparing the various ideas they have together to see if they are contradictory. Altemeyer describes it as the result of an upbringing that emphasizes loyalty and submission and that posits that truth is something that comes from an authority figure, rather than something that can be derived from available facts for oneself. But I think that applying that critique to an entire country seems harsh, without evidence.
Another way to deal with Comcast is to go in to their local customer service office. The people there are real, live in the same town, etc and generally can solve any issue and will do so with no BS. At least that's my experience.

The lady in the article got the infection after using a water filter.

This leaves 2 possibilities that I can see.

1. The filter didn't do it's job. I thought that a good filter would filter all organisms (or like 99.9%). I'm told by people that you can drink out of a swamp or mud puddle with a good filter.

2. The filter does work, but she didn't maintain her filter. Maybe the dirty filter actually was a nice place to cultivate the amoebas? I would be curious if an unchanged filter can actually increase your chance of infection. At best though, the dirty filter wasn't able to filter this organism.
The pressure caused by the sun’s ongoing fusion reaction is directly opposite to the force of gravity which constantly wants to contract it, these are exactly equal and opposite this isn’t an argument this is the basis for how stellar fusion works.

∆P · A = −GM(r)m This is the formula.

The sun isn’t powered by the initial gravitational force that heated it up but by the continuous gravitational attraction it experiences all the time.

A star is constantly in the balance between the forces of gravity and the outbound pressure from the fusion reaction this balance is what keeps it going.

http://large.stanford.edu/courses/2011/ph241/olson1/

http://www.ucolick.org/~woosley/lectures_fall2012/lecture12....

So unless you somehow found a way to turn off gravity the sun and every other star in the universe experiences a constant “input” of energy due to gravity.

So the only thing that doesn’t makes sense here is your attempt at physics, hydrostatic equilibrium is what keeps stars going and it’s between the pressure of fusion (or degenerate pressure once fusion stops) and gravity.
Not surprising at all. What's surprising is that it's taken this long to appear in the news.

While in the shipyards for maintenance I would stand watch and was responsible for letting people on/off a large ship. Most were contractors. The only requirement was that they had a contractor badge. How did we tell this was a valid badge? Good question. You'd think there would be some sort of master list of people with badges we could check and verify.

Not quite. Every contractor had their own style of badge and we had no way of knowing if any particular badge was real or not. Want a "valid" badge? Buy a badge printer. You're in.

We had people we didn't even know just show up to install systems on board that nobody was able to verify were supposed to be there or not. It was a little better with the classified systems, but you can imagine that any verification of contractor IT systems was non-existent.
Are you serious? It should be pragmatic and taken seriously, but it isn't. As for phishing attacks, try it three times in a row and, if I recall correctly you get results of 50 percent success.
Ah, that would stop certain dimensions from changing, but the output would still be the same size.
Well if we’re waiting on a geographically distributed workforce then I can see two extremes which will force that. 1 The tech giants need to many employees/tech giant cities become too overpopulated for the move to Bay Area it similar isn’t feasible even for software engineers, causing the tech giants to submit to remote work. 2 We get to a point of automation where we have way fewer jobs than people.

Don’t mean to be absolutist or anything, but as long as the tech giants can afford to fly candidates on site and throw buckets of money at them to move to ever increasingly high COL areas, I only see this trend continuing. Despite the technical ability to work remotely, most companies seem like they’d rather perish (or shove their talent into tighter and tiger corrals) than have people work from their own location. And I don’t see these giants trying to create new hubs in places that aren’t already established, as that’s a long term wager and why delay gratification like that?
The USA is not starting a trade war with Iran (first time I've ever heard sanctions called a trade war), the US is enacting sanctions to hurt Iran without scaring allies like Saudi Arabia

The trade war is with the EU and Russia. Iran is a huge potential future market, alongside the rest of the non saudi aligned Middle East. After Iraq the contracts for rebuild and repair went to classic US interested parties in trade retaliation for prior diplomatic posture in the m.e. by France and Germany.

Please explain to me what I don't understand about china holding US debt,and what it means tactically regarding the trade war.
It's interesting how much people still talk about metadata collection (protected behind the requirement of itemized FISA court approval) because "big mean US is evil" while ignoring events like this.
I don't think they should have dropped him for simply being controversial.

That said, which four have been shown to be lying? Only Munro-Leighton has admitted lying outright, and Swetnick changed her statement enough that you could say she was lying too. And Munro-Leighton admitted she wasn't actually the original Jane Doe accuser anyway.

I do believe something happened with Blasey Ford, although ultimately I don't know if her memory of the events will fully gel with what happened, or with what Kavanagh thought was happening at the time.

Yes, I would have expected him to keep his cool even under such intense pressure. I wouldn't expect you or I would be able to do so, but I wouldn't put either of us forward for a lifetime position on the US supreme court either.

Ignoring his composure, a bigger issue for me is that he outright lied about his drinking at the time and the meaning of many phrases used in his yearbook. Renate Alumnus just meant they were all good friends? Boof is farting and devils triangle is a drinking game? These are simply lies, and not even good ones. I don't think the existence of lewd comments in his yearbook is disqualifying, but lying about them should be.
You only do so much raising of your kids. Their friends, their teachers, and the broader culture also have a huge effect.
I assume people making this distinction are thinking about "network services that the public can compromise by interacting with them over the Internet" vs. "software that someone can compromise by getting it to accept a malicious input". But I agree that "RCE" is commonly used for both; otherwise we would have to maintain that browsers don't suffer RCE vulnerabilities because a malicious document is no longer "remote" once the browser has downloaded it.
that seems like a bit of a non sequitur, because monoliths can be constructed. like how game companies create prestige among a disorganized community by sponsoring official tournaments, for example. and you don't necessarily need to deal with a monolith, you just need a popular consensus, which it sounds like there already exists. so my confusion is how did the universities lose the ability to decide their own self-worth. how did this get outsourced.
I've heard of many scenarios where the author loses access to their own paper. After moving on from a project it's easy to leave stuff on a school's server or on some hard drive in a closet.
It's a harder problem to solve because free market capitalism incentivizes lying to the consumer and hiding facts, especially for things that occur over the extremely long term. Short-term profits are far more valued than maintaining public health or ensuring that their actions don't have any negative consequences in the future. Even if a company lasts to see said consequences, the people in charge at the time end up getting away richer.

It's easier to regulate behavior when you don't reward executives and businesses who use immoral behavior to increase profits.

That's not a branch; otherwise you would have an infinite (or impossibly large) number of branches for just that one line of code. A branch is when you execute one set of code upon a given condition, and another if that condition is not met.
so i'm curious then...

considering that this is displayed on the CNCF interactive landscape page, does it mean that backplane will be quickly removed from the service proxy group, or does anyone think that CNCF is already aware? i reaalize it's not backed project or anything, but it clearly made it there somehow. considering how hot CNCF is right now, made even more apparent by the 8K+ sized crowd this week, i would imagine that the CNCF website brings a nice bit of traffic to these small companies.

it's too bad...backplane's vision seemed promising albeit lofty, and against some heavy odds (with some big players in the space).

Unfortunately sometimes they’re woefully understaffed. When we lived in New Haven they never had a line less than 20 deep and it was clear that they just needed not to skimp on staffing because the people were working as quickly as they could.
Yes, the fundamental idea that $X spent will result in Y scientific knowledge and Z technological advances is managerialist wish-fulfillment. Science and engineering aren't remotely that predictable. We can imagine that we know what we need to discover in order to accomplish something, but the universe likes to laugh at us.

That's simply not true. An accidental package is not "unordered merchandise".

If it's got your address on it, but someone else's name, it's not your package and you're not entitled to it (in fact, you can't even open it).

If it's got your name and address on it, but the company meant to send it to someone else named dragonwriter instead of you, it's also not your package and you're not entitled to it.

If you order item A and the company accidentally sends you item B instead, that's not "unordered merchandise", that's a mistake, and you're not entitled to treat item B as a gift.

None of the above methods are used for testing. You use boundary testing, branch testing, equivalence partitioning etc. Random data is not a good method of testing.
Yeah, I thoroughly disagree.

I’m skeptical of your assessment that Polish people just aren’t racist at all, and I disagree with your splitting hairs between racism and xenophobia.

But beyond that, I’m baffled as to how you don’t see that in a discussion of the benefits of living in a diverse culture, xenophobia based on ethnicity being linked to a religion and then unfairly conflated with terrorism to justify mistreatment is the exact kind of problem I’m concerned with.

Diversity doesn’t just mean racial diversity, though it appears that Polish people aren’t as comfortable with that either as you’d like to believe.

wouldn’t it be enough to explain to children that racism is just an unscientific, morally abhorrent belief

If history is any guide, no.

Your example about the mathematicians makes me wonder if we’re even talking about the same thing. I don’t want my daughter seeing women mathematicians because I want her to believe their presence will make any team that they’re a part of better (even if true). I want her to see women who are mathematicians so she internalizes the idea that it’s a viable option. The “just tell her it is, even if the world around her tells her the opposite every day” is a recipe for failure. I want her to see it.

The bulk of the design industry is in wealthy countries with an Apple presence.

But yes, there are professional designers who don't use Apple products. They're just not the majority in a global sense, but I'm sure they're the majority in some locales. Hell, there are still designers out there who don't even use a computer.

I'm not sure why this took such a pointed turn.

This is the crux of it - these licensing boards, inspectors, and licensed professionals have become their own little fiefdoms serving their own entrenched power rather than the public good.

When it comes down to it, the only thing licensure does is set a bar to keep out the extreme boneheads [0]. And that is necessary for sure - I've been around long enough to see how many indiligent jokers there are in the world. But I still philosophically believe everybody has an inherent right to do their own work.

I came across a court case a while ago - Meyer vs Nantucket - of a guy who was building his own house and did his own plumbing in Massachusetts [1]. The ensuing saga reads like scenes from the movie Brazil. He made it all the way to the state supreme court with photo documentation of how the plumbing met code, and how the Nantucket plumbing inspector was not following their own internal regulations. Meyer even found and hired a licensed plumber [2] as an independent inspector. and he found no defects. The court stayed logical through two rounds of appeals, and then suddenly nosedived into nonsense about local boards having ultimate authority of all interpretation, and kicked the case back down - seemingly having gotten the memo that if they were to do the right thing, the status quo would be disrupted. Then the town fiefdom forced him to pay a plumber to destroy the entirety of the work he did and have it redone - basically pure vindictive punishment for thinking he could rock the boat in the first place. This is the attitude that every bureaucratic institution develops after they are taken for granted.

The code bodies operate in the same rent-seeking manner. The National Electrical Code - law that we are all bound by - used to be up as a PDF on public.resource.org, until they were bullied through the legal system into taking it down. Now it is only available from magnet URLs. In a just world, it would be published prominently on states' own websites alongside the rest of the law.

[0] And just in case you don't know, work being done "to code" is a bare minimum. It implies little about the actual quality or longevity of said work.

[1] It's fine to do your own electrical, although many inspectors still become hostile. But plumbing is strictly verboten.

[2] Retired, from out of the area. Because any licensed plumber still earning their living would not want to get on the shit list.
