According to the little bit I've read about this, some of the publishing journals are/were fairly well regarded (which would be a self-serving claim by this group.) The "success" of those stories says more about the individual publication than the entire fields they represent. At most, it is a critique of some niches of otherwise valid fields. At best, it's a nice reminder to pursue nothing but objectivity. There are still worthy results from the fields involved, maybe even these publications, and there will continue to be more.

Amongst the embarrassing amateurishness of it all, and the obvious conclusions, I found it interesting how commonly reviewer comments used the word "exciting" in response to the "Going in Through the Back Door" paper.
Six pages seems a lot for discussion. I prefer two page briefs, in part because it takes less of the participants' time but mainly because it requires more refinement and focus by the author.

I’m an ex hardware design engineer turned software dev. My advise. Pick the chip that suits your requirements, get a development board and get the software running.

This reminds me of the management at my old company. They wasted a fortune trying to develop wearables by tasking people with little or no product development background with the bulk of the work and then spending another fortune on consultants to make it pretty. What they ended up with looked like a Knick off pipboy from fallout.

That executive is on ‘special projects’ now.
It's just a list of previous cases of money laundering and the fines to the entities (mostly banks) involved.

Would be nice if for example they mentioned the overall impact of the illegal transactions on the entire systems, or maybe changes or actions that those banks made (other then paying fines).

Basically, I feel like this misses either (or both) the overall, total impact of 'dirty money', the global scale of it, it's effect, etc. (because only the bigger cases that were caught were mentioned, it's interesting to see how big the phenomenal). And also I would like to understand what is being done to stop or prevent other and future instances.
A cell tower receives a request from a particular phone in range and sends the nearest GPS sattelites for the phone to try first, cutting down the first GPS fix to seconds.
The carrier has a list of IMEI that requested AGPS data for each tower, it's only metadata, the phone doesn't get the data.

This is my understanding, I'm not entirely sure about the first part.

Not all authors will respond to email promptly. And many have retired or even died -- there are decades-old papers still behind paywalls.
“The assertion of the authors is that this stuff getting published means the whole field is worthless.”

I don’t get this at all from the authors. My take is that they call out serious flaws in the rigor of how papers are reviewed. I don’t think it’s reasonable to extend that to say the field is worthless. I did read through many papers in the referenced journals and it seems really surprising to me. I’d love to see some of the research reproduced. But I’m not even sure how you could scientifically prove a field worthless.
I think that's a point if we argued about we'd agree to disagree.

My best work has been done while I've been left to my own devices for days or even weeks at a time and I've got this mad desire to build something. I can't really control this mad desire. It happens sometimes but I can't seem to force it. Mostly when someone else wants me to do something I can't get the desire to actually do it. A lot of the stuff I've build has been interesting to me, but not really useful. A few times the desire to build something has actually produced something useful to others, though.

There's a lot of padding and ambling in that memo. For example the entire first paragraph would have been more parsable as a list of achievements. And then there is this:

"may be because customers have such easy access to more information than ever before – in only a few seconds and with a couple taps on their phones, customers can read reviews, compare prices from multiple retailers, see whether something’s in stock, find out how fast it will ship or be available for pick-up, and more."

Everything after the clause "... then ever before" is superfluous. Shareholders know what sort of information customers can obtain, and how. He implies that with the weak "and more" at the end. But too late, he has already wasted the reader's time.

I'm not particularly impressed by that writing style, it reminds me of 16 year olds trying to impress me with their verbose history essays.

The idea of business writing is to COMMUNICATE. If the reader reads an entire paragraph and hasn't learned anything new then the author has failed. If the reader needs to use a highlighter to pick-out pertinent information from a sea of words, the author has failed.
I'm not sure if it's possible to explain the difference without living in both countries!

The GDPR question depends on what the logs include. If you don't include IP (or anonymize it) and don't include sensitive data (like userids/cookies or POST data) then it should be okay under GDPR. You can for example have one log for security (fail2ban and so on) that includes IP and one for GoAccess that does not.
You're not understanding. Wood chippers don't have "strengths" compared to other objects. It's a wood chipper, you can only meaningfully compare it with other wood chippers.

Some are better than others. Why? Because each product will have its strengths and weaknesses. This wood chipper has a great coat of paint which is impervious to scratches! But this wood chipper is much more fuel efficient! And this wood chipper is fully electric!

Those are all examples of a product's strength, not a weakness.

> If it has a "surprise strength" which the company who made it didn't notice, and didn't advertise ...

The whole point of reviews is because we can't trust the advertiser. Especially on Amazon where it's likely from a reseller who may be ignorant or straight up lie about the product.

> Want a bluetooth speaker, you find all the ones you can, then look for the negative reviews of which have poor battery life and which have weak suckers for glass.

Lol. I also care about how good they sound. I don't want to see an absence of reviews saying how bad it sounds. I want to see motivated reviews by enthusiastic users claiming how great the sound is, and then taper my expectations by checking the negative reviews to make sure someone more educated about speakers hasn't made a more in-depth analysis of the sound stage and quality of drivers, cables, etc. Using either source alone provides an incomplete picture.

You're arguing for arguing's sake. You clearly don't have a good method of making an educated purchase, so consider improving it before evangelizing it over well-established, comprehensive methods of making an educated purchase which are undeniably superior.

The idea that "negative reviews by themselves will always contain the full amount of information needed to make an informed purchase" is an axiom of online shopping is laughably preposterous.
I'm shamefully unsure of how it works exactly, but it's possible they had subroutines that looked for phrases like "weather", "movement", "troops" etc. to try and speed up the brute force.

This is called "multi project wafer" or "shuttle service" if you want to look for it.

Actual prices are pretty rare, but I happened to find some: https://nmi.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/01-Easy-Access... ; those line up with what I've heard. $25,000 for a few chips from the MPW service, or $100k for your own mask set then $1-2k per wafer.

The adage "good leaders make themselves unnecessary" applies.

If you have people under you, or can coach your people to take parts of your responsibilities off you, I think that's a great outcome. If your ICs are so good that they can actually do that, you should give them a raise and be glad you get to focus on other things in the meanwhile.

Of course, if the manager is unable to then broader their own scope, they indeed become disposable.
It is much more of a lifestyle thing, you're right! With all things, I'll get the functional adequate version and use it until it no longer functions. Sometimes I'll buy multiple so as not to be bothered to repeat the shopping process when one wears out (I own many unopened identical pairs of shoes and glasses for instance)

Brands generally mean nothing to me, new consumer technology I'm generally not interested in, and I have no issues say, taking the bus and getting reading done instead of rolling around in say a Tesla (despite the fact that buying one is well within my financial reach). I honestly don't care in the slightest.

So yes, it's probably a larger personality disposition which manifests itself in this particular way moreso than it is a morsel of objective rational reality.

The people I lambast are the same ones with things like smart speakers and wifi connected refrigerators (I use an old minifridge and I prefer it). It's just a lifestyle; not some objectively poor use of money and time resources.

That's a nice perspective and it helps explain a lot, thanks.
The game was taught in many schools in the U.S. for a while. So many kids who weren't gamers, or didn't have a computer and home, would have played it. That makes it different from the hundreds of other games.

I'm currently going through something similar: trying to create a hardware prototype for a tablet-like device. Even getting a board that supports eDP is a pain, and there is very little information out there that explains whether the panels are compatible with anything. I decided to just buy a RockPro64 + some generic LCD panel with an eDP hoping it will just work, but my confidence isn't high and I'm not sure where I'll go if it doesn't work.

I also couldn't find a place with people who know this stuff that could help me. It seems that getting software help is so much easier. Does anyone have any suggestions?

My previous one. Small tech team of 20 of the smartest and most driven people I'd ever worked with, very little interference from management, lean development processes and an exceedingly proactive IT support team.

Of course this didn't last forever - we were acquired by a competitor who burned the whole thing to the ground. We've all moved on since.

(Late in, but just wanted to add a viewpoint/suggestion I've not seen already, in case it's helpful to you.)

Simply: I don't think there's a 'one size fits all' approach you can rely on.

I've been mildly overweight for years - not obese, but heavier than I wanted to be, and heavier than is healthy. I've tried various weight loss approaches, on and off: healthy eating, calorie counting, WeightWatchers-style points counting, keto, slow-carb (Tim Ferriss' approach), and the 5:2 diet, all combined with exercise. Aside from keto, none of these worked for me past a couple of weeks - I'd lose the motivation, and drift back to old ways. Living a social lifestyle involving alcohol and eating out fairly regularly helped with this. (Keto was interesting, but my blood lipid values looked quite bad after a few weeks, so I gave it up; YMMV).

What I then discovered is that my individual psychology seems to work much better with strict but easy-to-follow rules in place, rather than a constant battle of trying to not eat the tasty food. So what worked for me was daily intermittent fasting. I don't eat a single calorie until lunchtime (~12 or 1pm) - one or two black coffees work amazingly for removing the hunger pangs. Then have a nice big lunch (making it reasonably big is actually important, as you'll have been fasting for 16-18 hrs; if I eat too small, I'll get hunger pangs mid-afternoon). Then follow it up with a decent early dinner - if I'm being strict, I'll finish eating within a 6 hour window, or relax that to 8 or 9 hour window if life dictates.

This works great for me - I lose weight quite easily if I'm strict for the 6-hour window, and maintain weight if I'm a bit less strict. Also, an unexpected bonus of the window effect is that you'll automatically limit calories, by only eating two meals a day - more is virtually impossible. And it's self-limiting - if you have a particularly large lunch, you'll still be quite full 5-6 hours later, so will have a smaller dinner.

I had a terrible reaction to penicillin during a bout of mononucleosis. I've read that it's not uncommon to have a negative reaction to it when you have mono, and that it doesn't indicate an allergy, so I'm not sure I actually have an allergy. I never had a problem with it prior to that. It was such a bad reaction that I don't want to take a chance, though. Every few years, I explain this to a doctor, and when I give them the details, they usually respond along the lines of "yeaaaaah, let's keep avoiding that." One of these days I'd like to get a controlled allergy test for it, but meanwhile, it gets listed as my only allergy to anything.
