Gotta love Paul's approach. Amazing to see things that break when you run a black hole DNS server on your inside network. I have a Samsung TV that won't complete boot until it has verified there aren't any firmware updates at Samsung. I finally resorted to copying the http response traffic and having an a bit of code on my RasPi return it when the TV asks (it says "no new firmware for you"). Of course these sorts of tricks will fail when vendors get wise to them and start returning an encrypted time and date nonce in the response.
Reverse Sticker Shock? No Inflation for New Vehicles for 22 Years: CPI
It shouldn't be slowing good developers down, it should just be changing the order they were already doing things. One of the most fundamental ideas I took away from my Software Engineering course in college was that catching errors early in the development process is more efficient than catching them later. It is a lot faster to grind out ideas in the planning phase than to churn during code review, because the development and code review processes are a lot slower than just replying to comments.

More importantly, when experienced developers formalize their reasoning for a proposal, less experienced developers can learn from it. That same knowledge becomes archived in a format that is easy to discover and consume in the future.

On the contrary, the "many wimpy cores" approach has been very successful on GPUs (and other vector processors such as TPUs, etc.) What it hasn't been successful at is running existing software unmodified.

The best solution (the one we use today, in fact) seems to be a hybrid approach. We have a few powerful cores to run sequential code and many weaker units (often vector units; e.g. GPUs and SIMD) to run parallel code. Not all algorithms can be parallelized, so we'll likely always need a few fast sequential cores. But a lot of code can.

The collapse of the entire food chain? Insect biomass is down 80% in the last 40 years. Ocean phytoplankton is down 40% since 1950. Both are attributed to climate change. These things are at the bottom of the land and sea food chains respectively. If the food chain collapses completely, we will all starve.

This is not a gradual change of the type we need to learn to adapt to. This is a sudden, full-blown, in-progress apocalypse of a scale only seen once before in Earth's history.

Actually, adding LINQ to C# did not introduce any new functionality at all. Everything you can do in LINQ you could already accomplish in C# without LINQ. Yes, I suppose someone could say that the older code was uglier, but it already had the same capabilities as LINQ.

That's been the case for the majority of supposed "new features" in C# for at least the past 8 years or so -- LINQ, inline variables, anonymous functions, string literals etc. It's all just syntactic sugar on top of existing features.
The Starbucks Lookbook [pdf]
"The first idea is that all technological change is a trade-off. I like to call it a Faustian bargain. Technology giveth and technology taketh away. This means that for every advantage a new technology offers, there is always a corresponding disadvantage. The disadvantage may exceed in importance the advantage, or the advantage may well be worth the cost."

This is a very popular belief which I reject wholeheartedly. Certainly there are often trade-offs in some way related to use of a technology, but it is not a rule, and there is no correspondence. Despite the last sentence, framing things dualistically like this provides quite a false sense of equivalence and ambiguity. In the end its an over-simplification and on some level a rejection of technology.

Rejecting technology means rejecting the application of knowledge. I have no problem with criticizing the selection of technology or how it interfaces with society, but rejecting technology outright leaves you with the same old problems. And then you must rationalize about how your old problems were better than your new ones. I would like those people to go back and live in that state -- without ubiquitous running water, without flush toilets and good sewage systems, with horse shit in the street, or live as a _biological_ computer where you spend 10 hours a day doing arithmetic.

DNS is a protocol not a service
> This should bother people here more than it does. The last thing the Internet needs is even more dependence upon Google. They've made it quite clear through their actions that they're not supporters of a free and open Internet: https://theintercept.com/2018/09/14/google-china-prototype-l....

Which reminds me of:

> Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Thursday called for uncensored Internet access around the world. Among other initiatives, Clinton said the U.S. government will meet next month with network services companies to advance "Internet freedom."... In remarks aimed at the business community, Clinton said companies shouldn't yield to pressure from foreign governments to censor themselves or violate human rights. She urged companies to resist such pressures even if it means losing business in those countries, and argued that a principled stand would be good for business over the long run... Clinton said the State Department will host a meeting in February with network services companies to address the issues around Internet freedom. (from https://www.business-humanrights.org/en/hillary-clinton-says...)

> Increasingly, U.S. companies are making the issue of internet and information freedom a greater consideration in their business decisions. I hope that their competitors and foreign governments will pay close attention to this trend. The most recent situation involving Google has attracted a great deal of interest. And we look to the Chinese authorities to conduct a thorough review of the cyber intrusions that led Google to make its announcement. And we also look for that investigation and its results to be transparent.

Sure. You also need high enough property tax rates that it’s not attractive as a speculative investment.

But in China’s case, it seems like it’s a glut of money seeking a place to sit that doesn’t have other safe places to go. I’m guessing the values will crater, as the housing supply glut eventually does its job.
In that case what is the difference between credit and debit usage?
Shared libraries are shared in RAM between processes. But I believe the cache for each process is not shared. If three processes currently have the same shared lib code (or any shared memory) in their working set, they will each work it into cache independently. This sounds inefficient but is rare in practice and maintains process isolation. The added complexity of cache sharing would not be worth it.

If I have this wrong, someone please correct me.
There is a lagged autoregressive technique used in forensic analysis that allows 3d reconstruction using 1d (mic) sound.

A CNN should be able to back that out too, and do other things like regenerate a 3d space. In the right, high-fidelity, acoustic tracks could be the spatial information to reconstruct a stage and a performance. It would be neat/beautiful/(possibly very powerful) to back video out of audio in that way.
Austin's traffic is bad for sure. Dallas then perhaps, which at least has a rail going north (also bad traffic). That said, Queens absolutely values diversity.

Lots of people to make happy on a deal this size.
Not the OP, but I remember the early 2000s. Just spitballing here but IMO that made no difference whatsoever from a consumer's standpoint -- but it presumably did from an operational standpoint, given how Google introduced an actual business model to search. The only things that mattered to you as a consumer then was how good the results were, and how convenient it was to get them. Google had a clear edge by the end of 2000 insofar as I can recollect.

Instead of doing a memset, I'd recommend using std::fill (which will likely call memset or another fast implementation behind the scenes): it makes it clear what you are doing, and preempts questions of "is this legal to do" (which it is, but only for POD data types).

A common criticism I heard about React a few years back was combining JS and HTML within the same file, as opposed to having them separate. As with most decisions, I think separation is an important trade-off you need to consider: it's easier to reason about the individual, separated parts that are well-contained, but it becomes harder to reason about the system as the whole.

If you have a complex front-end and back-end with a REST API, each time you modify a server route, you need to find all instances in your client where you make an AJAX request to that route and change them appropriately. The potential for inconsistency can cause numerous bugs.

GraphQL solves this by having a very flexible and standardized server (albeit complex), giving your client access to arbitrary structured information using a query language.

Purview solves this by moving your logic to the server-side, where you can access your database directly. Because everything runs on the server, the client-server interface is abstracted away, and you don't need to worry about using GraphQL or REST. You can make database queries, contact external services, etc. directly within your components.

To keep this maintainable, you split up your page into logical, reusable components, just like you would with React, and each component now not only contains your view logic, but also the server-side logic. Given that you've decomposed your components well, this makes it easy to reason about the whole system when it comes to any part of your page.
Could you elaborate? I don't use Facebook.
Usually the track sounds awful. For example, the bass can go away with the vocals, instruments' timbre change etc.

It's not "spying". Google DNS just "monetizes data sent through Google servers". Like they do with Chrome Data Saver, or Amp, or Calendar, or Contacts, or Voice, or GKeyboard, or Photos, or Maps, or Gmail, or Search, or...

ASK: What is the fundamental nature of a login page?
Is a login page a first-order feature of a site, a real piece of functionality that should have its own url (aka `/login`)?

Or.....

Is a login page one possible view state of an "actual" page? For example, if you have a secret dashboard page at `/secret-dashboard`, and Bob is logged in he would see his dashboard data, while if Suzy was logged in she would see different data (aka a different view) customized for her. Doesn't it follow that a non-logged-in user would simply be presented their "data", which in this case would be no data at all and the login form instead? All while the url stays at `/secret-dashboard`.
"Legal concerns" is a weird excuse, but personally, I'm glad they didn't name names. The point of this article isn't to shame any browser vendors, it's to talk about WebAssembly. Naming the browsers would have just distracted from the article's topic.

This is a really interesting idea. If they can replicate what a human barista can do, this has alot of potential. Customers make accounts to order coffee from their phones, so you can send a survey after the person gets their coffee and ask how they liked it. Depending on what they say, the robots can make the coffee a little different next time until they find what the customer likes. So you can have a consistent cup of coffee that is made just for you.
Well, HITS is applied after you’ve already selected a subset, at response time; so, if you didn’t select s good subset (and AV often didn’t) then picking the most promising out of that subset is not as helpful.

Pagerank is essentially a “universal authority score” (in the HITS terminology), and it worked well because at the tine you didn’t have pages that were authority for one subject and spam for another. You do now - which is why pagerank is now one signal out of 200, even though it was sufficient on its own 20 years ago.

> A border wall won't prevent any nurses from entering the country

With that being said, my current location is very far away from the border wall, thousands of miles north. I posit that the border wall won't help anybody in my area at all.

In my experience, when talking to people who are pro-Wall, it isn't the border that they're interested in. They are generally more rural folk who see great importance in cultural homogeneity.

Sure, it sounds great to city-folk to see and experience new cultures. But when you're out on the docks trying to warn people about an incoming storm... and those people don't understand English... and you don't know of anyone nearby who can help you translate (and those people WILL DIE if they go out during the storm), it leads to stressful moments.

The "wall" isn't what people want. Its a political rally cry. What people want is for other politicians to understand the importance of cultural homogeneity, especially in rural situations. People in this town should speak English. People in this town should understand boating safety. Etc. etc. There isn't anyone else in the town who can help, so identifying the core cultural requirements to survive and help each other out is important.

And finally, what people want is the ability to represent this thought without being called racist.

---------

That's my experience on the matter. As such, Democrats are correct to point out the folly of the Wall: it doesn't actually solve any of the problems that Trump's base wants (excepting the small portion of Trump's base which actually live on the border). Or more specifically, the problems I've identified from the people I've talked to at least. I could be wrong, but... that's my understanding of things for now. The problem with Democrats is that they can't see the benefits of cultural homogeneity, likely because they don't live in the rural areas which benefit from these alternative policies.

------------

In any case, the Wall addresses no actual problem. Its fully a distraction. Even if the wall is built, it won't change the Democrat's point of view (or lead to greater understanding between the political parties).

Same here on the bold choices. My two "mistakes" (not actually regretting -- everybody has their own path) were staying at the academy too long, and secondly not asking at all, but expecting. Not smart, and actually rather neurotic.

What I've found out just in the last few years is that by making yourself valuable and then asking for what you really want will actually bring the thing to you (if it's reasonable). Preparing the question and paths forward for both outcomes is a way better strategy than losing hope and blowing up.
