Another take, perhaps: Assigning deep semantic significance to invisible symbols is simply stupid. It is stupid to a much greater degree than wanting to be free from having to care about the amount of invisible symbols is “sloppy”.

I was actually in a seminar a couple of weeks ago given by the head of Ground Station :).

Pretty remarkable that a company like Amazon allows for experiments like Ground Station. They have a pretty clear business model and I think that it will help to open up the sector even further, in the sense that now you can just grab your satellite data in pretty much the same way you operate on AWS otherwise.

It's also interesting, because Amazon came somewhat late to the game and sorta blew open the market. Friends of mine founded Leaf Space [1] and they've sorta built a similar concept from the ground up, deploying antenna around the world.

Then you've got efforts like KSAT Lite [2], InfoStellar [3], ATLAS [4], and RBC Signals [5], so it's a pretty hot market at the moment.

I'm excited about AWS entering into the market because I believe it'll accelerate development of some pretty cutting-edge technologies like laser satcom, that will change the way we think of data from space.

It's hard not to.

Comparing Go ans PHP a few years ago would mean to compare Go and PHP/Apache or PHP/Nginx, because PHP could not run its own server.

It's like comparing Git and Subversion, where you have to explain concepts like staging.

Or IntelliJ and Eclipse, where you have to explain workspaces.
Which is why you should use RISC-V Ariane instead which is already being timing modelled by ETH.

Or work on the ARM Cortex M5 verification then run it on AMD-SP which is one. Presuming they allow you to run your own code.

Or other external hardware - smart card or the fancy U2F.
No, it doesn't only mean "money". Still, it's not perfectly clear that the requested declaration is a "thing of value" and legal scholars are already debating it.

From a customers standpoint. I don’t see the problem. If a company cares about reaching their users they can sign up for the service.

Wireless is different, no matter how much money a wireless carrier is willing to spend, there is a finite limit of how much data can be transferred through the air and only a limited amount of spectrum that is good for cellular service.

The video/music producer can opt out and be treated like all other data and watch their customers prefer providers who went through the trouble of filling out some paperwork or they can be on the same level playing field as their competitors.

He wasn't a denialist. In the afterword he explicitly said he believed in a warming climate, and that the climate would warm by 0.8-ish degrees (somewhat tongue-in-cheek, referencing all the confidence that is espoused by the research). What he objected to was CO2 as the driving force -- his research led him to believe that the urban heat island effect had more impact.
I talked with a few people who wrote Go servers and while they loved almost everything about the language and ecosystem, they hates the missing generics so much, they still switched to other languages later.

Regarding (4) Lambda and friends are not actually stateless between requests; the process is initialized once and then potentially reused many times for hours, so you can cache between requests, both in memory or in the filesystem (AWS Lambda provides 512MB in /tmp).
Different RISC-V and ARM cores also have differing timing?
Regarding "I am functioning", I know exactly what you mean. So am I in general, regardless of what's actually going on. But maybe that's just that you're great at keeping up appearances, not that your circumstances aren't that bad. Maybe it's time to get some professional help.

With psychopharmaca, I think it's about finding the right doctor. I'm not a fan of everybody getting some pills, but a lot of doctors seem to be so hesitant and want to try lots of others things first.

Entry level CPUs. August 1998 Intel started selling legendary(to overclockers) $149 Celeron 300A. By 1999 entry level moved to $100 for ~300MHz Celerons/K6-2. In 2000 entry level moved to $69 433MHz Celeron, $75 533MHz Cyrix III, and $112 600Hz Duron. Top of the line CPUs were around $1K at the time.

Todays entry level CPUs are still around $60 https://www.anandtech.com/show/13660/amd-athlon-200ge-vs-int...

Same goes for motherboard prices. Even RAM stayed in the same price bracket https://jcmit.net/memoryprice.htm . 1999 computers came standard with ~$100 128MB of SDR, todays standard is ~$100 2x8GB of DDR4. Somehow everything got cheaper, except usable GPUs.

People always use this modern term as if it implies something significantly different or more "advanced". The web hasn't changed much. It's still data over tcp sockets to a contained runtime -- a web browser.

> People like ORMs

People in my experience are starting to dislike ORMs. If you have done this for long enough, you realize they are great for getting off the ground, but they inevitably get in your way, and start generating some really bad queries which you have to start one by one replacing with raw SQL statements, at which point you might have well started with raw SQL.

Having come from Rails, and PHP frameworks like Symphony and Laravel at my company, using Go I feel almost like I am more intimate with my code. I understand it better, the dependency chain only ever goes one or at most two levels deep. I will admit the the templating and routing is more "batteries included" in these frameworks, but the other parts that I have control of that I consider much more important (such as how my data actually gets stored and other network calls I have to make), I would much rather do those in Go than in PHP

"In vertebrates the capacity for subjective experience is supported by integrated structures in the midbrain that create a neural simulation of the state of the mobile animal in space."

Whoah there! I think this might be another case of semantic creep. It's very easy to conflate consciousness with self-image in the brain, and it's regularly mis-sold in this way by neuroscientists.

I once went to a talk at the Royal Society which was supposed to be about consciousness. The bloke just spoke for an hour about things like optical illusions.

By the same token, if I were to create a processing system for a robot which integrated visual, haptic and auditory feedback to create a representation of the robot in space, we're being asked to credit the robot as somehow being conscious.
For the last few years I've been avoiding Amazon where possible even if it costs me a few quid or I have to wait a day extra for delivery (though most places offer next day delivery for a price which I'm happy to pay).

This is for a combination of reasons:

* The working conditions of Amazon employees (the pickers, the packers, the drivers etc...) is abhorrent IMHO

* The huge (legal but scummy) tax dodges they get away with

* The amount of fake products on Amazon is completely ridiculous

* In relation to the above, the epidemic of fake/paid reviews

* Their packing of some products is laughable, I received a £600 HDD in the same packet they send softback books in. It went Cardboard > Antistatic bag > HDD. Fuck that, I sent it back for a refund without even testing it.

I built a new PC a couple of months back, it was ~£50 cheaper through Amazon than the retailer I ended up buying it from but I'll choose the smaller (yet still known to me) simply because they offer a better service and don't treat their staff abhorrently.

Amazon used to excel at service and quality, now they have most of the market that is gone IMHO.

Imho, the best possible response to this kind of situation is to generate thousands of (deep) fakes, with different parameters, and spread them. Then, nobody will know what the real photos were. Also, with this many fakes going around, nobody will really care anymore. And mr. Bezos certainly has the resources to get a team of CGI artists to work on something like this.
Yes. Despite the HN title the article topic isn't really "We found a new problem in TLS 1.3" it's closer to "Bleichenbacher Oracles still exist in lots of TLS implementations, although in two of the nine we checked we couldn't find an Oracle".

They only mention TLS 1.3 because otherwise uninformed people would say "Just upgrade to TLS 1.3" which won't fix the problem.
In my experience Duolingo does have good grammar notes. But they are easily ignored and the exercises don't force you enough to read and understand them. Which may be impossible for any such tool.

> The brain structures that support subjective experience in vertebrates and insects are very different from each other, but in both cases they are basal to each clade. Hence we propose the origins of subjective experience can be traced to the Cambrian.

That requires you to contort your hand if making uncommon patterns. If you only need to double click, you can move your entire hand as needed because you’re not anchored to the click.

I think he’s just implying they have more competence than the FBI in finding alleged missing emails. His comms is very non literal -and people take him literally. His whole campaign was off hand blue collar jokey remarks.

Pundits understood him literally, so they failed to understand him at all. His nomination competitors also saw him in this light and ultimately failed. Mostly, J think they failed to understand his communication style1[1]. Occasio on the Dem side uses some of this same comms style for the left and it works to a degree, but the left is more uptight about being PC in comms so cant go as far afield with it.

Kerry undermining foreign policy is closer to treason but no one bothers cuz he’s an old hand. Let’s say the Dems win the next cycle, but then as they try working with Russia or Iran on things, Bolton struts in on visits to give his two cents...

Basically, I think many people try using a standard/traditional comms framework to parse his comms, but he uses a different more blue collar style[2]. Not frat style of a GWB, or the ancient oratorical style of Obama.

That is a much harder task than just picking up boxes that are all the same size. It's essentially still a research task that many universities are working on.

yes, EOL's and ECN's pop-up a lot. Sometimes it's nothing (a pin-compatible alternative exists), sometimes it's a nightmare requiring a design change.

At my work, we have seats with SiliconExpert, this is a tool that you can use to get availability "risk assessments" for your BOM among other things like RoHS stuff and conflict minerals status.

I've never seen an "overnight global supply draining" occur for a part. There are distributors that make a living buying up millions of components throughout their lifecycle and then sell them for ~20X their cost (or higher) when the part goes EOL. It might be annoying, but these vendors can keep you going until a suitable replacement is located, designed-in, qualified and rolled out to production.
From OP's point of view he paid for git tower, sent in criticism and them immediately after couldn't use it anymore because his license was revoked. That's his point of view.

The actual git tower folks as a PR measure came and said that 'because we couldnt figure out how our ticket system works the license was revoked and there was a bug.'

That seems rather far fetched.
That's why I propose a two-phased strategy where the first phase is dominated by drilling and the second phase is dominated by reading and immersing.

> Not generally,

It depends on the tax. If the tax is a fixed percentage of wage/income/property, then, at least in general, they affect everyone equally.

However, taxes such as VAT or sales tax, affect the population with less money harder because they make everything, even the basic necessities, more expensive. People that have a substantial chunk of income that they invest/save are hit substantially less by those taxes since they don't intend to spend the investment in the first place.
Local client creates hashes and transmits them together with the metadata and the encrypted data, Apple compares incoming hashes with FBI/NCMC/... databases. Easy as that.
Yes, which is why I mentioned the specific Ariane in-order application processor and specific ARM processor. If the encryption algorithm validates in SeL4 Ariane environment, it is algorithmically side channel free. However, this does not say anything about it being side channel free on x86 Linux - out of order execution, more caches, HT - all Spectre vectors.

Of course the proof can be easily extended to handle other RISC-V in order cores. Proving out of order execution is hairier, a lot of work to be done.

Oh, and you get to freeze the code to given validated compilation FIPS style. Any random C compiler revision can mess you up. Or rerun the prover.
At the very least this is providing valuable information for consumers, regulators, and legislators on the scale of the problem.

One of the big issues pre-GDPR is that companies weren't always forthcoming about their data breaches, so the scale of the issue was unknown.

This meant that people looking at either solutions or at necessary regulations/legislation were acting in the dark.
Disagree. We've been running on ECS for years and it's a very economical and reliable way to run containers on AWS. The service itself is free, the agent over time has become very reliable, and the integrations with AWS services like ELB, and CloudMap are seamless.

It's significantly more complex to host kubernetes infrastructure, and EKS is significantly more expensive.

ECS would be a first choice, with EKS a second choice if my needs dictated it (perhaps a hybrid or milticloud scenario).
