You forget the key words in my comment. "Like a cow". I know you can process some vegetation. I eat a lot of vegetables. But your gut biome can't process vegetation like cows. Go try eating grass or vegetation exclusively and see how well you do.

Lets put it this way, you cannot survive on a locally sourced vegan diet. This is true whether you live in alaska or the amazon. The only way you can survive on a vegan diet by shipping vegetation from all over the world ( tons of environmental destruction and oil use for transport ).

Maybe some vegans have good intentions, but as they say, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. While vegans virtue signal and pat themselves on their backs about being pro-environment, anti-oil, pro-animals, pro-health, pro-local source, pro-natural, their diet is the worst for the environment, kills 1000X more animals than any other diet ( admittedly "small" animals ), needs tons of oil for petrochemical fertilizers and transportation, is anti-local source ( there isn't a place on earth where locally produced vegetation can sustain you ), is anti-natural ( since you need lab produced supplements ), etc.

If you rather kill 1000 billion animals rather than 1 billion animals, then veganism is for you. If you'd rather use 1000X more oil, then veganism is for you. If you'd rather eat a globally sourced oil dependent diet rather than locally sourced diet, then veganism is for you.

Vegans are the worst people pretending to be the best. But that's not exclusive to veganism. It's true for most people who pretend to be the best. Every cult claims to save the world while being vicious and illogical.
Or, phrased another way: we are NOT in possession of a phone number any more than we are in possession of an IP address. Both are transiently assigned to us to the computer with a cellular modem in our pockets
This is great (one plan worldwide, but in places with weak currency like India, paying in dollars might turn out to be expensive), but overall isn't the industry moving in the direction of eSIMs (no physical SIM required)?

Moreover, once OneWeb, Starlink and the like launch worldwide internet service, it might pretty much render the telecom industry as it is today irrelevant?

Did you not notice the one child policy in China? (It came along after Brunner published SoZ, so I'm calling it a win on the predictive front, although they discontinued it more recently.)
My comment isn't based on the article, it's based on observing what's actually happening, both from the conference sessions and activity in the various open source projects that it's about. The article is based on public info, so you can observe for yourself.

The truth as of now is that WinUI (the UI stack from UWP) is the only one of these frameworks actually getting significant new feature development. The main reason for this is that unlike winforms or WPF, it doesn't have a dependency on .NET, so it can be used by projects like Windows and Office that for the most part never adopted .NET and managed code.

Like if you watch this session from the conference -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKMzFjGfoy0 , it's billed as a talk on the Windows presentation platform as a whole, but they spend basically all their time talking about WinUI. The new React Native implementation for Windows is also being built on top of WinUI.

Yes, that’s feasible and even today a company could adopt a system like that (instead of one where certain insiders automatically have complete voting control for life).

We are considering a range of proposals for future listing standards and I won’t be able to comment on those until we file them publicly.

But suffice to say we are thinking along these lines. To me, one key principle is that in order for companies to make long-term decisions, they have to know who their long-term investors are, and find ways to be aligned with them, including via rewards like you propose.
It leaks information about the company - for example, you can see precisely how many documents have been created over x days
>You want product to do a thing.

Yup. Sure, I like to tinker with things sometimes.

But I don't, for example, particularly appreciate spending half a day yak shaving with a computer just to get it to the state where I can actually use it for the task I actually set out to do.

About a year ago, I decided I should have a working Windows computer for games and the occasional other Windowsy thing I want to do. My first thought was to upgrade one of my home-built systems. Instead I ended up just buying a big laptop on sale because I more or less to myself that I know how to build computers. But I don't especially want to in this case. I just want a relatively compact computer I can use for some specific tasks.
Hologram is another example, and there are many more but enterprise-focused.

I hope the program can be funny and useful.

Something about rust:

I love rust programming language very much. And I'm trying to implement something. During the implementation, I found that rust's compiler is very powerful, and it help us catch many error in the run time. So we will not expose too much Runtime Error.

What I learn about is that when we got problem earlier, less time we will waste. In this level, I like it very much. But rust have many concept (Especially something like lifetime, Box). It still makes me confused :( But I think it's very interesting.

Please don't hesitate to tell if you see any bad code or any better way to do something.

You’re really stretching to make this sound tedious and error prone.

We are the only stock exchange that was built from the ground up to serve companies and their long-term investors primarily. We have a different philosophy, business model, and eventually will have different market rules than the legacy exchanges.

We have nothing against those older institutions or against traders for that matter. We simply think the next generation of companies is looking for something different. It’s a strength of the American system that it supports competition and allows us to give people a choice.

We will publish additional details as we are able to.
Even if your IoT devices don’t move there’s value in putting them on a mobile network. Particularly for security focused devices if you put a SIM and a battery in it then you become resilient to someone cutting the internet line and power before breaking in.

A few markup errors:

• In a number of code blocks, angle brackets are not escaped, and so text doesn’t appear in the end result.

• `<span style="color: maroon">#include</span> &ltstdio.h&gt;` lacks the semicolon

• The paragraph immediately after the #conflicts heading lacks its <p>.

It’s funny that they use that awful pyramid-of-doom error handling style in a lot of the public documentation.

The correct way is to have an “Error:” label at the end of the function before all the cleanup code. After calling any function that can return an error code, you check the error code and “goto Error” if necessary. You can encapsulate that whole logic in a macro so you just call something like CHK(hr) anytime you have an error code to check. CHK being defined as something like “if(FAILED(hr)) goto Error;”. This is how error handling for non-trivial functions is done in any serious C code, regardless of the platform. One common pattern is actually to just put the entire line of code inside the macro, so your code would look like CHK(hr = AWin32Function(param1, param2)). You can get real cute and even have the macro assign hr for you, so you can drop the “hr =“ from your code.

I worked on Windows at Microsoft and with very few exceptions, the only time I saw the pyramid-of-doom was in the public documentation. I wonder if was just bowing to the irrational hostility some people have to any use of goto, even though this is a highly structured pattern that should be uniform across your codebase, the opposite of unstructured, ad-hoc uses of goto that are the actual problem.
Before texting there were instant messenger apps that everyone used (ICQ, AIM, MSN Messenger). Less people used the internet then, but those who did used those. Back when those were a thing the chat logs could usually be saved automatically as text files. I still have a ton of chat conversations I go back to sometimes from when I was in high school.

It's a lot harder to go back and read text messages, and I only can because the old phones I kept still function. I started transcribing a few text conversations manually though because those phones won't last forever.
Maybe, but there is a huge market of people that do not have an eSIM. They could use this, right now: this will allow Twilio to get a head-start in this market, rather than waiting until eSIMs reach critical mass (probably years away).
That's cool, but then I'd assume you have to make an index for each function.
In general if a person is asking basic questions about sargability, I will steer them away from functions on a predicate (it's usually my last choice.)

Often you can just think a bit harder about your set based logic and make an index that's reusable by other queries.

In other SQL's you can also make a materialized view, which may be able to persist some of these things, its just like keeping n+1 copies of your data to satisfy a different set of relations/projections.
Another fantasy from Elon. With so many projects of his going so well (cough, cough), why not?
How is this different to Hologram[1] or EsEye[2]?

Hologram seems to offer an api with as much access as twilio's (data usage report, switching between "networks" (what package you buy, which includes certain countries and pricing...) and monthly payment of a fleet of chips. I'm failing to see the added value of twilio, but the more competency the better!

The technology has been around for several years now. There was reluctance (naturally) by the telcos in letting this happen, but applications are demanding it now bringing it more into the mainstream from the niche it used to occupy earlier.
What's with the poor data pricing? These plans seem like a non-starter for _any_ application that's remotely data intensive. At $50 / month you're going to get a total of 4GB in the USA. That's just unworkable for streaming video for e.g. remote CCTV applications.

It seems like if you're doing anything interesting that uses more than insignificant amounts of data (beyond e.g. reporting GPS coordinates) you're better off taking out a business contract with a mobile network and using the roaming allowances built in there. E.g. you can get 3x the 4GB data that was billed at $50 by taking out a £15 business SIM contract from Three which incidentally will give you up to 1TB in the UK.
Generally lazy writing or attempting to jazz up the piece without enough expertise to know when you've changed the meaning.

"Intel dominates the market for chips that power desktop PCs." It has a bit over 85% market share, in a two-player market. Furthermore, because they didn't say CPU like they should have, they're technically inaccurate. Intel network PHYs don't "dominant" consumer boards, last I checked.

"demand for server chips is growing, propelled by the profusion of internet-connected gizmos, from smartphones to cars." Really? IoT is the catalyst?

"missed the arrival of the smartphone" Unfair and reductive. Intel didn't "miss" the smartphone: it saw it coming, didn't have a product that fit, looked at the margins, and didn't think it was worth investing. That probably wasn't a bad move in hindsight.

"GPUs, specialised chips designed for video-game graphics" That tortures the definition of a different microarchitecture.

"And its manufacturing technology, which used to advance with such metronomic regularity that Intel called its business plan “tick-tock”"

This was it for me. Intel literally moved to the tick-tock cadency because Moore's Law was slowing down. Before, it was just an unending stream of process shrinks. Tick-tock accepted that there was now time for an entire microarchitecture update between process shrinks.

"The firm’s latest generation of products, built on its “ten nanometre” manufacturing process" Also, since when do we air quote measurements?
Maybe we're getting tired of being misled by tech giants. Android used to be open source, too, but in practice it's anything but (Play store, etc.) So forgive me if some us are less than elated at the "don't be evil" company's latest promises.
Great to see the JVM experimenting with low-pause GC.

It looks like the maximum pauses of Shenandoah are still well over 1ms, which will still cause a lot of tail latency in services. (Go reached ~5ms max pauses a few releases ago, but there was still a significant improvement in the behavior of services when pauses were clamped at 100μms in more recent releases.)

Definitely the right direction. I hope future versions of Shenandoah will clamp GC pauses even lower.
Yeah, no. You are wrong and the fact that you provide services to go around adblockers makes you evil as fuck.

Thanks for letting me know to block hello.js and hello.gif.

There must be something that I don't understand fully about this because It would see odd to me that data would be encrypted at rest, and at the same time have the plain text key available to decrypt the data.

Note that the EU rules apply differently to data than they do to voice and SMS usage.

A provider offering unlimited data in the UK can cap your data usage in Belgium or charge e.g. £8 / GB after you use 20GB of data.
Encrypting backups is more-or-less essential for many types of data – but you absolutely need to know what is at stake (complete data loss) and how to mitigate that (redundant hard-copies of keys stored securely both on- and off-site).

"Europe has a special place in the venture because it was the final destination of the original Silk Road."

Is this really true? Wasn't China the final destination of the original silk road. Isn't it why we call it the "silk" road.

My understanding was that the silk road was primarily a loose idea of trade links between the middle east, india and china. Europe was an afterthought.

You could argue Europe is the final destination today since it is china wanting to get access to europe. But in the past, wasn't it the other way around?

But more to the point, Europe ( especially western europe ) is significantly wealthier than China. Why is it that China is investing in poorer european countries and not the wealthy western european countries? They can find money to fund wars all over the world, but can't find money to invest in tech/science in central and eastern european countries?

A right join is a left join flipped so you never formally need one, like you said.

I believe I used one once, exactly once ever, about a year ago. That was because I was fighting an almighty 5 page CTE charlie fox of a query and had to turn an inner join into an outer join to get data otherwise excluded. It just so happened the data missing was on the right so I made it a right join. Had it not been so awful I'd have flipped it into a left join, my usual style, but I couldn't bear rewriting it.

(background: it was complex but could not be broken down or it lost efficiency. Part of the length was long explicit lists of fields 'select a, b, c, d, ...' which were unavoidable, but it was just plain complex too. The inner join suddenly became an outer join because we found data missing - the DB was a commercial one written by some clueless people with little consistency and absolutely no documentation. I hope I never see that again).

1. We use it in a lot of ways big and small.

I’d say two notable examples are building our tools platform (http://LTSE.com/tools) for early stage companies which has allowed us to do exchange-like things long before being operational as a national securities exchange and our earlier attempt to build the exchange with a legacy partner. That partnership ultimately failed but in the process we learned a lot of essential lessons that set us up for success. Classic MVP.

2. Not really. They are obviously aware of those things and I have found them knowledgeable and conscientious in wanting to protect and serve the public. But the process to create a stock exchange is defined by law and they followed that to reach their decision. If you read their almost 50 page approval order, you’ll see how detailed their analysis is.
To fix it you would need to issue a new mask ROM, with all the associated tooling costs.
I like Graal a lot but a lot of the performance benefits are in the EE version. That’s not in and of itself an issue except we are talking Oracle here.

So the EE version is available for evaluation but not even Oracle can tell you how much it costs or how to get a license :-/
