It's China. It's a tool for social control and keeping the Communist Party billionaires in power.
Open standards are unenforceable. It's obvious what would happen: although the standard is 'open', most people would still continue to use exactly one provider. Perhaps it won't be facebook, and perhaps -- in the time it takes to recentralize -- there will be social media nirvana, but ultimately, the nature of the web means we will -- in the end -- see the emergence of a singular central player.

Sure, some die-hards would continue to use the smaller ones, but most people would sign up on the biggest.
What other ways do you get newsletters? Twitter? SMS? ???
I doubt that's a viable business model for Discord. It feels like something to go after in order to reassure reactions like the one you were replying to. (Plus any money never hurt anyone, but it doesn't seem viable at all).
Speaking of twitchy lawyers and Move to AWS... one of the weirdest things we had to deal with inside Amazon was that, for many years after AWS launched, we weren't allowed to use it because it "wasn't secure enough".

Given that we were actively shopping it around to major financial institutions at the time, doesn't that strike you as particularly hypocritical? :)
That is a very lazy way to construct an incentive system, sounds like an HR "innovation" not legislation.
I got my start on performance programming doing GPGPU regex (a terrible idea in our context - networked IPS - but that's for another time). This was in 2006, so this meant doing GPGPU using "Cg", including such delights as using textures as arrays and floats for everything. CUDA 0.9 and a engineering sample G80 card were a revelation.

I keep meaning to go back and do some GPGPU again. I am very fond of architectures that actually exist. GPU is a very different bet than SIMD but a lot of fun.

Incidentally PTX is a fiction - more of an IR than something with true throughput and latency numbers. I don't know if anyone programs GPUs directly but that would be interesting.

Remembering Dr. Misha Temkin, Aug. 1955 – Mar. 2019
Someone I know recently interviewed for a company that would give them 7 sick days a year. Being chronically ill, they’d realistically go through that by the end of February. Flex time wasn’t an option either.

The future of email should be a deprecation of email. Email is an archaic system, where different clients implement their own versions of rendering or sanitizing email. Some platforms don't even include proper email headers. Now there's this 'AMP' that's being shoved up our throats. Not to mention the nuances around deliverability like spf records and dkim. There's also the issue of spam.

I'd love to see email go away and more modern messaging platforms take its place. Having worked on apps and platforms that work with and parse email, email is not the future.
The crazy reality of that situation is that people will continue to drive when the license is suspended (because they need to). I made this mistake living in Florida years ago and was literally arrested, booked, and spent a night in jail.
SF has some rules about putting in or making space for extra lines when you do a a new conduit run in the streets. I'm sure other cities do as well.

5 votes. Remember that "Key Polish Political Party Comes Out Against Article 13" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19467726 and how people didnt believe Poles pointing out this particular party is just a bunch of has been crook liars? Guess what, 7 of them voted for ACTA today. No one was shocked in Poland by this, as it wasnt the first time they publicly lied to constituents about official position.
Because the statement was one of fact, not opinion and therefore no correlation to ones' employer or experience as such.

If the statement was, "I think AMP for Email is perfectly fine as is and doesn't need an option to disable." that might be something to call for disclosure.
I remember using that in Minecraft with friends. Easy way of finding where your friends are without having to deal with coordinates. That was long ago though so I'm sure there are better built-in ways now.
If you're saying trigger warnings are mostly political (I think ideological is a better label but whichever) that is a different topic. The issue in debate here is wether or not, regardless of any social or political baggage, they have some actual utility. In the case of PTSD or depression w/ suicidal ideation, I think they do. Suicide is, in fact "contagious" in it's way. Letting someone make an informed decision about such content can literally save their life. Similarly, PTSD isn't something really helped by repeated exposure to a "trigger". What you propose in terms exposure to get used to the world is the psychological method known as flooding. It does help with phobias, but generally is not effective treatment for PTSD. Part of the treatment path includes minimizing exposure to known stressors while other treaments have time to take effect.

In short, your ideas here appear to be shaped by your politics, and they simply doesn't match up to mental health best practices for effective treatment.
There's no reason we have to interact with gmail at all. The time has come for a lightweight, client-side layer on top of email+pgp providing a new social network.
Is it just me or is every big release from Uber just a custom rewrite of an existing technology? It seems their engineering department has a large not-invented-here attitude. I could be wrong - they're certainly large enough to have custom requirements that aren't met with what's on the market but the pattern is just becoming suspect.

Social network-influenced credit scores are becoming common internationally, including by US lenders, but do not appear to be used yet by the major credit reporting agencies in the US due to uncertainty over status under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (just a few of many articles):

I wonder why this happens? Both gmail and Google drive loads so slow for me. They cant make this right?
For ELF i would say because its easear to reuse a lot of tools that already deal with the format. Debuggers, linkers, compilers, etc..

My guess is also because its easear to have a bridge with Linux executables, so you can run the same ELF and emulate the linux syscalls somewhere like FreeBSD and now Windows .

I bet they were thinking about running Android stuff more easily, and i dont think there will be much more to gain in designing a whole new executable format, when you compare how much of free tools, code and compatibility with Linux you will have in the end.
To be honest, this is false too. You need functions with values that can be multiplied by scalars. If you just have ordered set, then you can't account for this constant from the definition. Alternatively, you could say that values of the function need to be from a normed vector space (but I'm not sure if it can be extended furthermore. Maybe normed C-module?)
401k’s haven been that spectacular for the last 15 years
It looks like voice packets are intended to be OCB2 (CryptState.cpp, cryptstate go package in Grumble). I haven't read the code through to figure out how to mount it (and it looks slightly funky), but if it does what it says on the tin there's a trivial, one-encryption-oracle-message forgery attack for that.

Also: I don't think that means you shouldn't use Mumble. I just think someone should see if they can exploit that bug and then get someone to fix it :-) I went on their IRC and someone talked to me within 5 minutes, which is a Good Sign(TM).

(I wish I had more time to just do random audits of open source projects, but the incentives aren't really lined up for that to happen, and I do more than a bit of open source work already.)

How to Quickly Deploy a Computer Vision App with Render
Yes. But how do I know you're any good at making that list?
Because your response to criticism sounded, frankly, like a petulant teenager. It's hard to square that with the quality of the writing in the article.
Its definitely a monopoly but I think this as much derives from the redundancy of running multiple cables/fibers/etc. hence a lot of these are natural monopolies. It's why utilities are handled the way they are as well. Similar concept applies to roads hence why roads are usually publicly owned. Having competing roads wouldn't really make that much sense...

All that said, I'm hoping wireless solutions change this scenario. Effectively, if I can run a 5G (or w/e) hotspot connected to my router, the latency/throughput is good enough, I'm pretty much cool ditching my wired options. A monopoly on the wireless side is still possible (spectrum can be a limiting reagent), but I think it's much less likely to devolve into our current ISP dynamic. I'm certain there are plenty of technical issues with going all wireless but it doesn't seem insurmountable.

I'm a farmer from the UK and have an agronomist who advises us on pesticide applications.

He visited the USA and said, when he stepped into their spray sheds, it was like going back in time 40 years: all kinds of chemicals that have been banned in the UK were still allowed in the USA (organophosphates etc).

Of course if the article doesn't state the amount of pesticides found, it doesn't tell you anything really, but I wouldn't trust American food standards based on my anecdotal experience, flawed may it be.

Does the person in question work on AMP for gmail? Also, I'm still uncertain that statements of fact (not opinion) necessitate disclosure in this case.
The Extraordinary Life of the Freed Slave Who Taught Darwin Taxidermy
Indeed, I remember going from PhpBB and other forums a lot in early days, alongside Ventrilo. We then moved to Mumble and Slack, but now it's just 100% Discord is most communities. It's really hard to beat the free aspect for most people, and it doesn't help that most Mumble/Vent providers charged ridiculous prices (10$/month for ~25 people).
Even if they wanted to, Google couldn't kill HTML in Gmail without breaking a huge number of emails for their users. AMP adoption would have to be near universal before they'd even consider something like that. Gmail, for example, still supports plaintext email just fine even though HTML has been supported in just about every mainstream email client for years now.
Well, at least there are comments, right?
What Is `This`? The Inner Workings of JavaScript Objects
Simple picture for those who do not understand what makes a tsunami a tsunami.

Gravity waves have a direct relationship between wavelength, the depth of the wave, and its speed. There is no such relationship with the height of the wave. You get a tsunami whenever a very tall column of water moves all at once, whether it is rising a little bit or a lot. The result is a very deep wave, with a correspondingly long wavelength, that travels at about the speed of a jetliner.

As a wave approaches land, it begins to rise and then break when the bottom of the wave hits the sea floor. It can then carry a volume of water inland determined by its overall size. This applies to all waves, but since tsunamis are so much deeper they rise more and carry much more water for their height. Hence they bring water in "like a tide". Thus the alternate name "tidal wave".

Most tsunamis are caused by earthquakes. They shake the sea floor, moving the entire column of water above, and off the tsunami goes.

They can also be caused by underwater mudslides, eruptions, or (rarely) large meteors - anything that moves the entire water column will do. And those causes often involve much larger vertical displacements, leading to a much taller wave and a lot worse tsunami.

Therefore the very largest tsunamis are caused in these alternate ways. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megatsunami for information on some of the largest.
Linux isn't the largest open source project ever! Look at Android - it incorporates Linux and then adds vastly more on top.
We have run a significant number of useful/practical tests via Jepsen, that only need snapshot isolation level. The tests that were run included a single-key counter test, set tests with and without a secondary index, a "long fork" test ensuring that the order of operations is the same when observed by different clients, and a bank test verifying that the total balance of multiple accounts stays the same when cross-shard transactions transfer funds between pairs of accounts. These tests were run under a variety of failure modes, including different types of network partitions and clock skew. Also, snapshot isolation covers a very large spectrum of practical uses cases, including secondary indexes, for building real-world applications.

Having said that, we have recently added support for serializable isolation level to YugaByte DB, and we will be adding tests to the Jepsen suite for that in near term.

Mikhail (a co-founder at YugaByte)
I don’t disagree with you. But then I look at the state of state / municipal services where I live and have zero faith that my municipal government would be able to successfully do so without being horrendously corrupt.

If they can’t find money to repair the roads and subways, a muni broadband network is going to get even less funding / oversight.

That said, I think it’s total BS when laws are passed that prevent the establishment of municipal broadband networks. It probably works for some cities, but it definitely would not for many.

Another view is that this has to do with how projects are managed. It is common to provide access to sources. Accepting submissions of changes to add features or fix bugs depends on who considers them to be improvements and why. If you want to really own a problem and cannot get the managers of the project to accept your changes then you need to fork. This issue exists with both free and open source but ownership is more directly asserted with open source.

Saying this is money does not seem to mesh with the world we live in where RedHat provides services with free copylefted software valued at billions of dollars. Free copylefted software is big money now for better or worse.
First ever domain was registered in 1985. Many others were kept being registered since then. But what are the first used domains up to these days?

Almost all of the first registered domains were the ones registered by companies to reach out to potential clients. Registering a personal domain and setting up a personal website was not very popular at that time. Some of the companies that registered these domains were sold, some went out of business, yet some of those domains are still being used by their first registrars. In fact, it is possible to encounter some of those domains on some domain sales platforms.

One of the most interesting aspects of these domains is that some of them have not changed their homepage since day one. You may feel nostalgic on your first visit to these websites.

We have ignored some of the extensions on the list. If we were to count the domains with .edu extensions that were registered for every higher education institution during the inception of the internet, we would end up with a meaningless list of identical entries.

Overall, when we look at the ownership status of the domains, we see that 53 of them still belongs to their first owner. On the other hand, while 24 out of 47 domains have changed hands directly, 23 of them did through the acquisition of the company that owned the domain.*

What is surprising is that 5 out of the 100 hundred domains in the list are on sale as stated on domain sales platforms, as well as their respective homepages. In other words, if you are willing to pay enough money, you may own one or several of the 100 oldest domains of the history of the internet.

Those domains that are not on sale and have no public record of sales history are generally the ones used by old companies for their official websites. We may say that established technology companies like HP, Intel and IBM are among these. Additionally, we notice that some domains have been welcoming their visitors with the same homepage for quite some time and look abandoned.

See the list: https://blog.dofo.com/oldest-domain-names/
I don't disagree that there's room to move away from email, but how do the current crop of messaging services promise to overcome the problems you mentioned? They all seem as varied in their implementations as you suggest email is.

I'll also add that I think if something were to replace email, hopefully it would incorporate the slow response expectation of it. IM etc usually implies an expectation of an immediate answer; the length and expectation of not receiving an immediate reply afforded by email is immensely valuable.
I strongly second the recommendation of Munkres' Topology. It's basically the gold standard. However, I think don't think it's accessible to junior/senior undergraduates unless they've taken a prior course in analysis. Technically Munkres' Topology has no formal prerequisites, but it's a rough go of it if you haven't
had a rigorous exposure to continuity and metric spaces already. The second part of the book also assumes knowledge of elementary abstract algebra.

If the person you're replying to is a junior or senior undergrad in a math major they might be alright (presumably they'll have taken analysis by then). If not, Topology is not what I'd recommend as the first place to learn about metrics and continuous functions (Calculus doesn't cut it for that).
Most definitely yes.

Truly independent governance of separate projects within Google at the very least, but ideally totally separate legal entities that are carefully regulated and monitored to ensure they're not giving each other preferential treatment.

Don't have to be pedantic about it. Google is big enough and controls enough marketshare that it can be considered a monopoly. Especially when it rolls out something like 'AMP' that eventually causes others to follow suit to support it.
It's back, and it's a very good comment.
Why does it clash? After WWII and the start of the Cold War, the world stage had radically changed. Some world powers had been diminished while others were ascendant, and plans were redrawn.

The specific claim that's likely false is that the Soviet Union, as early as 1941, planned to conquer Europe (as part of some bid to implement "world communism") and specifically attack Germany, and that Hitler's Barbarossa was some sort of "preemptive/defensive" strike. The first goes against Stalin's philosophy at the time, the latter goes against what we know about Red Army readiness and also what we know about Hitler's racial ideology.
Amphibious assaults are really difficult, particularly of a large populated landmass. Iwo Jima cost the U.S. 30,000 casualties, Okinawa almost 70,000, to capture a tiny island with a garrison of about 100,000 with a huge (> 6:1) numerical superiority. Japan's military was a joke at the time. The U.S. didn't even try to capture Formosa (Taiwan), and atom-bombed Japan rather than risk an invasion of the home islands.
The force advantage required for an amphibious assault scales super-linearly, and beyond a certain population may not be possible at all, because of the inability to get more than a certain number of landing craft on the beach in a given time period.
Exactly my point! We can’t grow at 7% in perpetuity; so at some point it’s going to have to slow down. It feels like that’s starting to happen.

Hey, in case anyone hasn't read the article closely enough, this title is seriously misleading - the Article actually passed by a sizable majority, 348 votes to 274.

The thing he's freaking out about was that the motion to let it pass without amendment won by accident, but even then, do you really think they would have magically fixed a law with this many problems that most of them, empirically, wanted to pass anyway?
