It's hilarious, after the event-stream fiasco last year, NPM has changed...Nothing. NodeJS made a 'package maintenance' repo, but failed to address the actual root cause of the problem.

We'll see plenty of other NPM disasters this year, and as always, nothing will change because security is an afterthought not a core mission principle.

If it was, NPM wouldn't exist in its current form. It's confusing, adding extra security wouldn't even be that difficult or time consuming, they just don't.

I wish it were possible to take over a project with individuals who actually care. The people in charge of NPM are incompetent at running a secure, large scale distribution system, why they're still allowed to be a part of it is beyond me...

If security isn't your top goal you don't belong in charge of a very important, widely used ecosystem which many rely on.

Credit Fix
Bryan Gregory, I want to sincerely thank Ghost for a great job which he delivered on my bad credit report. I applied for a mortgage loan couple of weeks back but wasn’t qualified. The issue was that I had bankruptcy and tax liens to dispute, and the companies dropped it off my record. After surfing through the internet for help I read about Ghost on a credit repair website and other blogs. I contacted Ghost and explained everything to him to cut the story short he fixed my credit raised my scores to 780, removed tax liens, eviction and bankruptcy off my report, He also increased my credit limit and credit leverage. Still surprised at how it just happened within (8 business days) and easy to push the dispute button at the credit agency website with this Specialist. You can as well connect with Ghost today text (205) 418 0498 or mail at Ghostvirus7890@gmail.com and worry no more on buying a home with low credit scores or getting a job.
I doubt that there are too many professionals using GSuite on phones in the place of Office and the high end and midrange Android tablet market is non existent.

I also doubt that too many people who are spending less than $300 on phones (the average selling price of Android phones) are the target market for Microsoft.

Statistically, Google has captured market share of people with less disposable income than Apple has. It’s at most Pyrrhic victory.
PAO is also quite busy in the morning for Googlers commuting on aircrafts.

Unfortunately bandwidth is much worse than road and train networks. You can't support thousands of people commuting by air every day.

Yes, agreed. It would by no means be trivial. Question is whether it would be worth it (in terms of freeing up time for children to study something else, for example).
The three guys that are sleeping rough in a two-block radius around my apartment - they give zero shits that living standards in Kenya, or Shenzhen have improved 300% over the past 20 years.

Or that you can store 64 GB of data on a card the size of a bottle cap.

What they care about is that rent in this city has gone up ~50% in the last six years, their incomes haven't, and they went from having a home, to wrapping themselves in dirty blankets, and sleeping by the garbage bins in the back alley.

For what it's worth I think your views on women, at least in terms of your articulation here are pretty extreme. Attractive single women can't all be put into buckets like that, because attractiveness is not an objective quality.

In the first sentence you distance yourself from your friends who "are" addicted, but spend the rest of the time justifying your affiliation with the group. Would you like to be typecast in the same way?

"Fordlandia" here we come. I mean sure, we could pray for an Owenite community, but they all fall apart too. Saltaire in scotland was a housing paradise for workers but only because the factory owner wanted to reduce drunk related work absenteeism.
I think many humans are guilty of over-anthropomorphizing themselves.
As I mentioned in another comment, I am not addressing whether or not the law is appropriate. Any law is better served by being more specific, thus reducing the chance that it is inappropriately applied. Of course, there is always the recourse to change the law.

(I am going to assume for the purposes of this discussion that we are not discussing what might be termed immoral laws, where the argument can be made (quite strongly) that they should be disobeyed even if it is the law.)
Maemo phones did not isolate the cellular modem from the rest of the system. Also, a number of essential packages on the Nokia N900 were (and still remain today) closed source.
I think this law only applies to questions of past and present, not future.
The nuclear power plants you suggest building are of limited utility if the cars on the road still run on gasoline. If humanity is to survive, it needs to wean itself off hydrocarbon fuels completely.
I'm really surprised this was down voted so much. I really don't think it's all that controversial. Like so many websites require registration when you are almost guaranteed never to return.
Well, given that most mass transit in the US is effectively broken, Google may still have to pay for it's private transit. San Jose light rail is pretty worthless, like most light rail installed in the US - light rail is an easy approach that is guaranteed to always be slower than street traffic.
Are there currently any services that stream user-centric as the article describes? I'd put my music on it, since I have a very small number of very loyal listeners.

I remember hearing about a startup (musician-owned?) that was trying to launch that kind of service, but I don't remember the details. I love the idea as a non-profit, almost like a musical "utility" service.
What I would like is a bootloader that has the following features:

* End user management of trusted keys
* Keep most major manufacturer keys pre-loaded (even if disabled for current use)
* Factory reset online, not from device contents.

When a 'factory reset' or other base-reinstall is requested, look at an indirect URI associated with the preferred active key (this means WiFi, Ethernet, or other network connection must be made). Similar to how SYSLINUX (in various flavors) looks for different identifiers from specific to generic, query for an existing 'file' that matches the device model and serial / MAC in a pre-defined way. When a possible file is found download the bootstrap, validate that it is signed with an allowed key* (if it has a valid sig, but the key isn't allowed, ask the end user), if it's valid run downloaded bootstrap.

The downloaded bootstrap should, ideally, validate and re-configure the flash layout, possibly update system firmware if desirable, then apply the current version (or maybe offer a choice of back versions if applicable) of the 'factory' image for the device.

This way updates to the core image can be shipped with factory resets instead of some fossilized version of the software that should never be used for security or incompatibility reasons.

The above also applies to how generic computers should work, I understand that Apple devices are fairly close to this obvious process but I believe (offhand) that they lack end-user empowerment / management of authorized authorities at a bios level.

Sounds fun to me if you don't mind planning a few off the beaten track style detours. Shouldn't be too hard, plenty of tools available for finding and navigating chargers.

A few points about range anxiety:

- To the best of my knowledge, EVs being towed away because they ran out of battery probably happens once in a while but seems to be easy enough to avoid for most drivers that it doesn't seem to be thing. Even the author of this article was fine in the end (and not for a lack of trying).

-You can charge some EVs simply by towing them (regenerative braking). So, not the end of the world if the "worst" actually happens. I imagine charging from a second EV might also be an option with the right equipment; I imagine that will become a common way to deal with idiot drivers getting stranded.

- If you drive 300 km and don't take a break, you are probably getting dangerously tired. Good excuse to plug in and take a break.

- Average yearly mileage in Germany is less than 14K km. That suggests a lot of short journeys and maybe a handful of big ones (if any) for most cars.

- If like many business drivers in Germany you regularly travel the Autobahn at 200 km/hour between big cities that can be as much as 400-500 km apart in Germany, you probably are burning a lot of fuel. You could save a small fortune by going electric! Chances are most such journeys have plenty of charging points along your way.

- For most people this is not a thing. Renting cars is a lot cheaper than owning vehicles that you don't need most of the time. You can have a simple EV for day to day commutes and just rent something with longer range when you need to make that yearly 1500 km journey to southern Europe for your vacation. The savings in vehicle and fuel cost should allow you to travel in style.
Kind of like youtube? Or am I missing something.

That photo essay is from 2017 and addresses the ridiculously high real estate prices of Hong Kong. Colonialism isn't to blame for that. Globalism is.

Colonial Hong Kong certainly wasn't all rosy. There was certainly vast inequity, but that had to do with global trends of poverty and essentially being almost a second-world economy at the time. Growing up in colonial Hong Kong was alright. Definitely not a "colonial hell-hole" which I find to be incredibly offensive.
I thoroughly enjoyed the little distraction. Great job and keep on hacking it! So much potential.

For anyone who is confused about what the difference is (like I was initially), consider the most extreme case for the "user-centric" model: suppose I subscribe to a streaming service, paying $10 a month. If I only listen to a single artist for that entire month, then my entire $10 (minus the service's own cut) goes to that artist, regardless of that artist's fraction of the total songs streamed that month by all users.

I wouldn't say that "very few people know it", it's just that people don't think about it. Just tell them "pingouin, not manchot. Pingouin flies but not manchot. Manchot is called penguin in english".

Also, the confusion is greater from the fact that the Grand Pingouin (extinct in the XIX century) did not fly
A word embedding transforms a word into a series of numbers, with the property that similar words (e.g. "dog" and "canine") produce similar numbers.

You can have embeddings for other things, such as pictures, where you would want the property that e.g. two pictures of dogs produce more similar numbers than a picture of a dog and a picture of a cat.

I'm not saying this is the case, but if I wanted my country to take over another country, I would do it slowly and as peacefully as possible.

I've read that children in Hong Kong now have to learn Mandarin in school instead of Cantonese. So using language as influence isn't foreign to the Chinese state.
Yes, I suspect you had to cherry-pick a dimension in which dog and dolphin are closer than dog and cat. That would defy conventional wisdom justifies that dogs are closer to cats than to dolphins, but that's also modeled by word vector embeddings.

In the metric space, the distance between dog and cat might be lower than dog and dolphin in many dimensions, but higher in this specific one. A general distance function will have to take all of the dimensions into account, not just those cherry-picked. So the conventional wisdom _and_ your personal belief are both accounted for, and in the context of training "dog" and "dolphin" might be more similar.

I still suspect that's not actually true, and I'd be really surprised if a survey of users found dog and dolphin to be closer than dog and cat in _any_ dimension.

If I wanted to be really critical of your comments, I'd point out that she was quite frank about her article being about taking an EV on a European road trip, and just happened to choose a Tesla because it had the most range of the EVs available for rent. Because it was about EVs in general, she went out of her way to try and avoid using superchargers because those are Tesla-specific.

Her editor chose the headline, and presumably chose to specifically cite Tesla because it would draw in the eyeballs...which it did.

How to Build a Co-Founder Partnership That Can Last (Decades)
My reply to your replies:

None of my statements say anything about what a person "deserves" or doesn't deserve. That's an emotion that bears no weight in the rational discussion of whether or not you can objectively afford a purchase.

* Gruel is perfectly acceptable for basic survival. It WILL keep you alive. You mentioned chicken, rice, and beans in your OP. That's a far shot away from gruel.

* 'House' is interchangeable with either of those other terms. Bringing it up was silly. I live in an apartment, I would still call it the house temperature. If your apartment complex has pipes that freeze, that's their issue to address, not yours. It isn't your responsibility to pay a higher heating bill to keep their pipes from freezing.

* Exercise - Again, not a matter of whether someone "deserves" recreation or not. It's an objective, rational statement of whether or not a person without an emergency fund can afford a gym membership. I do have a small emergency fund and I still think that gym memberships are too expensive to consider.

* Computers/laptops/phones/GAME CONSOLES(?!)/movies/books - Again, not a matter of whether someone "deserves" recreation or not. It's an objective, rational statement of whether or not a person without an emergency fund can afford these things.

None of these statements are making any claims to what people deserve, because in truth, the world doesn't owe any of us anything. There is nothing in this world that any of us deserve just because we really want it. Stop thinking about what you deserve and think rationally about your money. What can you AFFORD? If you have debt and/or you have no savings, the correct answer to that question is, nothing outside of what it takes to survive and get back and forth to work. When you are out of debt and have an emergency fund, then sure, go crazy and buy some hot sauce to go along with your chicken, rice, and beans.

Well Jackie Chan is not the most undeserving target.

In past, he narrowly missed out on 'father of the year' after admitting to throwing his young child across a room (1). He was overlooked a second time when he disowned his illegitimate daughter over her sexuality.

> If you aren't CHANGING THE WORLD or some such, you have a bullshit job.

Are you saying that you think any non-world-changing job is bullshit or that you think other people hold that view?

Either way, this is a bullshit definition. Growing food isn't a "bullshit" job but also doesn't change the world. Most jobs don't "change the world", regardless of how important they are. Most people who think they are changing the world are just self-delusional.
Hey ericxtang. I've met your boy Phillip a few times (that's how I found out about LivePeer) - solid guy. Very good ambassador for your project and all that it can mean for the world.
One thing that I've done in these situations is keep all the accessories with the thing that needs it. For example, I have a small box attached to the inside of my home theater PC. Inside the box are various cables I might need for repair, small screw driver set, etc. Sure, I could probably use those cables or that screw driver set elsewhere, but in my mind they just become part of the PC, rather than objects in some drawer I need to go find.
Yes, restrictive building codes that prevent construction of sufficient housing in major cities are a real problem (some days I think literally the biggest problem) in the US. We should really fix that.
The truth is that for many types/sizes of models AVS2 or AVS512 in Xeons is as fast and GPUs.
But many Tesla shorts like Greenlight Capital and Kynikos pay Bloomberg $30k/year/seat for their terminals.

It would make perfect sense to tailor their reporting to their customer's taste.

>NVidia doesn't have a scalar architecture in any meaningful sense of the word.

CUDA threads are scalar, each CUDA core is a single scalar ALU, which CUDA cores are assigned to a warp is flexible.

>Nvidia literally cannot do async compute in the same way as AMD, because their micro-architecture cannot switch between graphics and compute on as finely grained a basis as GCN cards.

Both AMD and NVIDIA GPUs have to do context switching. The difference is in scheduling GCN has a dedicate scheduler with 8 queues only for compute that is the ACE it sits utterly idle while doing graphics the graphics scheduler sits within each CU.

>Nowhere in GCN are there any 4-wide SIMD arrays.

Each CU contains an array of 4 SIMD units which each take a vec4 input, GCN is much closer to VILW4 than you think.
Each CU also contains a scalar unit it cannot excute them in parallel.

If the SIMD units cannot be fed they sit idle, idle CUDA cores can be assigned to a different warp.

>Also nonsense. Both AMD and Nvidia have the majority of die space allocated to the compute cores

ACE takes up about 15% of the die space that is big in my book.

Heck, I should add that I visited Mountain View (Shoreline) in '91, and the SGI campus which is now Google looks almost exactly the same. Big changes: more buildings, and the monstrosity which is the PageEgoPlex that is going up now, but substantially the same. Many people who worked for Adobe, etc, say they've worked in the same building for 2-3 companies with just minor interior redecoration.

So, other than making things more congested, Google hasn't really transformed MTV.
I'm saying that I think other people hold that view.

I do not hold that view.

I'm sorry if that was unclear in my comment. I basically agree with everything you said.
This is how I feel with automating tasks. It really frees me and other people up to work on the never ending pile of work that is more valuable than just rote daily maintenance tasks. I've never been able to automate so much that I automated myself out of a job though, or anyone else for that matter. They just always get reassigned to do something else. There's always plenty of work for capable people. I think the problem comes when you are unwilling or unable to accept new work/tasks/technologies and are kind of "left behind."

If a company has a lot of these manual tasks that can be easily automated, and they don't, and there's another company who has the talent and will to automate it, the slower moving company will be inevitably put out of business, because they are inherently less competitive.

Replying to the dead comment: the point of not using the Tesla-specific tools was that she wasn't trying to do a Tesla-specific road trip. She was trying to do a roadtrip in an EV, and just happened to choose a Tesla because it had most range of the EVs available to rent (many of the EVs available to thoses of us in California aren't yet available elsewhere).
Why does it matter? Just put down what you did regardless of pay.
There's a few things that come into play here:

First of all, panics are perfectly safe. None of this has to do with safety guarantees.

Second, the [] syntax is controlled by the Index trait, which returns an &T, not an Option<&T>. It does this due to Rust's error handling philosophy. There's two kinds of errors: recoverable and unrecoverable errors. When something shouldn't fail, unless there's a bug, you shouldn't be using Option/Result, you should panic. When something may normally fail, and you want to be able to handle that explicitly, you should use Option/Result.

If [] always returned an Option, you'd be seeing tons and tons and tons of unwraps. It's not the right default here. However, that's why the .get method also exists: If you do think that this may fail, but not due to a bug, then you should use .get instead, which does give you an option.

TL;DR: everything is tradeoffs, and we picked a specific set of them, and that's how they all play out together.

Personal commentary: this is the kind of thing that's largely concerning until you actually use the language more, IMHO. Dealing with Options all the time here would feel really bad. Consider the other sub-thread about floats; it often feels like boilerplate for no good reason. That would introduce this for every single time you want to index something, which is a very common operation.
Because capital investment funded companies have very different goals than a traditional business.

A traditional business has cash flow as it's number one priority.

A young capital investment based company has market share and growth as it's top priority.

It's just a product of the priorities of how most modern businesses are created.
It is also quite apparent she drives with zero regards for energy management. The energy usage gauge is prominently displayed in the dash, for similar reasons that you use a fuel gauge. If you are at all concerned that your range may be questionable for a leg, then it is quite trivial to drive more efficiently. The author seems to not care about this at all and wants to drive wastefully. This is fine, but it takes away a lot of weight when whinging about range and poor planning.
