I would argue that Singapore is an example of a benevolent dictatorship. The problem with all such, that was already noted by Ancient Greeks, is that you have no guarantees that the next dictator is going to be benevolent.

Prolly not, they'd have to outcompete 3.5 billion years of evolution to survive.

If you're interested in stuff like that, google 'rna world'. It is likely that dna-based life evolved out of rna-based life and outcompeted it.

You would be much better off just getting the drivers direcly from the manufacter of each component. The only one that is likely only from Huawei would be the Bios which I guess is one of the more likely ones to be tampered with. :/ Reinstalling the OS with a known good source will likely defeat most attempts at spying on you.
Just to clarify, he got paid $21k for 7 weeks of time. He just so happened to only deliver a static HTML page, but was on prem as requested during the engagement.

Still, it's a quick way to get a reputation for running up the clock.
I'm talking about the big iron that provides core infrastructure to corporate intranets, and the Internet at large. Comparing that to fly by night IoT shovelware is a bit disingenuous, IMO.
`typing` is the module that uses annotations as type hints. Parent is correct; Python documentation calls the syntax annotations.
Just got a Galaxy J7 V 2 for less than $250. Does what I need it to, snappy, expandable storage, and an actual all-day battery life (probably day-and-a-half). I guess I don't understand why people want super-powered phones: just carry a decent laptop. It's not easy to make use of that much power in that small a form factor any way, particularly now that very few manufacturers allow bootloader unlocks and root. Also, people buy 8-core cpu, 8-gb-ram, 1440p screen phones and expect a long battery life? It's much easier to drive a reasonable processor, reasonable ram, and a 720p screen.

I guess the market has different ideas. I get the "it's a slick piece of tech" factor, but can some one who likes flagships talk about what makes them good?

For what it's worth, I consider the Samsung Galaxy S3 the pinnacle of smartphone design. It retailed for $250 at launch. I feel like prices are going up because the smartphone industry is trying to innovate faster than chips are improving.
Readers beware -- this particular taxonomy of robustness vs resilience is not a pervasive or even common one. Often these terms are used completely synonymously. And often they are used with different subtleties that distinguish them.

For example, some distinguish between the two terms in that robustness refers more to staying functional in the face of failures, where resilience refers more to the capability to work around failures (neither having anything to do in particular with whether the unknowns were unknown).

The blog post author says that this taxonomy come straight from David woods, so there's no problem. Just keep in mind that most people don't use these terms in this particular way.
What is "the feed?" Feed of what?
Every UTC calendar second represents a physical second.

On most days, every unix second corresponds with exactly one UTC second and they all correspond with exactly one physical second, and each one could be measured as the number of vibrations of some particular atom.

On a day with a positive UTC leap second, it's different. At 12:00:00 UTC, it's 12:00:00 unix time, the next day at 12:00:00 UTC, it's also 12:00:00 unix time; 86401 physical seconds have passed, and UTC has counted 86400 calendar seconds, one of which was a leap second, but unix has only counted 86400 seconds.

If you're running leap smearing, all of the unix seconds in that day are a little bit longer than the physical seconds (the exact details depending on your smear technique). If you're using classical techniques, 23:59:59 will be two physical seconds long, and the fractional second will reset to zero as the second physical second starts and count up again.

In contrast to UTC, and Unix Time, TAI always has exactly 86400 physical seconds per day, but after a UTC leap second, both UTC and Unix Time will be offset from TAI by an additional second.

Agreed: https://jakeseliger.com/2018/04/10/junkyard-planet-adam-mint..., although I'd argue that the first-person perspective, especially given his family's history, is what gives the book its charm and insight.
Induced demand is generally found in situations where you're giving something away below cost or especially for free. Highways are the classic example of induced demand precisely because they're free to use.

Induced demand in the context of market-rate housing is highly speculative and if it exists at all likely to be very limited. It's sort of non-sensical, like saying that demand for the original iPhone (or any new product) is "induced demand", either because it was new or because people wanted to be like other people. That's not the kind of phenomenon the concept of induced demand is trying to describe.
I mean, if I’m not paying with my money. And I know the guy has just been there waiting for stuff to happen for weeks, I’d happily do the same thing.
The difference is it our "company" that screwed up. If it is Cisco there is a reasonable belief that they just screwed it up. If it is a China company the assumption has to be it was for the government. That does not have to be the truth, but it is just the way it is.

The reality is that both just liked screwed up.
> Since climate models are certainly not as accurate as we would like them to be, this is hard to say.

They don't have to be very accurate at this point. Matter is conserved, including atmospheric CO2. It takes time to put in, it takes time to get out. Given that the only "out" right now is natural processes, it will take decades for CO2 to return to previous levels even if emissions dropped to zero instantly.

Underestimation of momentum is also true for capital-intensive shifts in dominant technology mixes. These shifts do not happen overnight; capital plant and equipment has substantial lags for decision time, financing, construction and onlining. These lags are going to vary by region, industry and technology. That adds substantially to overall reaction time under the just-let-it-ride scenario.

Misunderstanding the effects of accumulation is normal: http://web.mit.edu/jsterman/www/CroninGonzalezSterman061210....

Markets can and do dynamically adapt to circumstances, supply shocks, technological change so on. But they do not tend to overcome path dependency (we're all using QWERTY and standard gauge rail for no reason other than that's what locked in) and they do not have magical powers to ignore physics.
For C++ try the cquery extension. It's pretty good.

"They are just like casinos. Just look at twitter."

Two good, but arguably separate points. I'd say that the internet generally (besides the .0001% of it that is of bonafide intellectual content) has gone down the same road as slot machine design and they're getting better at it.

The main point (and threat) of agreements like this is that they set up a legal framework and the physical ability to control what people see from a central switch. Combine that with the ever-improving ability to both addict people to pictures on screens and to nudge them in a desired direction, it's really all about power.

I suppose in the final analysis it's all just takes the place of state sponsored religions.

Yes backward compatibility is not an option (lets avoid redoing python3 trauma ) and simply delegating coexistence of old and new features to implementation is a bit lazy. However documenting one way as the current one and other features as old ways, for backward compatibility can simplify things.

You should be aware that just because something is in the US Code, doesn't mean that it's actually enforceable. For example, there's a law that bans burning the American flag:

https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/700

However, this act was explicitly ruled to be protected political speech under the First Amendment:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Eichman

In a similar vein, the law you've linked to would still be subject to the "imminent lawless action" analysis, were someone to be charged under it.

Hi there, firstly may I know what kind of goals or purposes that you try to achieve after it becomes open source?

Perhaps, your solution would be the way to achieve that. Thanks

The comparison isn't between 40 people's right to live vs every terrorist's right to free speech. It's between some probabalistic chance that 40 people's right to live isn't violated in the future due to these actions, versus some probabalistic chance of millions of innocent people being silenced and having their privacy violated in various ways due to the collateral damage from this kind of policy making for the foreseeable future. This shit never gets revoked once it's in place.

History is wrought with examples of people's free speech being violated. How many examples do we really have of when someone's free speech was successfully violated to protect proportionally more important rights?

The entire western world is slowly giving up every single ounce of privacy and freedom, in exchange, and for what? ISIS is finished, the rate of Muslim terrorist attacks seems to be falling off pretty fast, and the swell of fascist sentiment will slowly wind down too once the factors that triggered it are no longer present. This isn't some new concept that's never happened before. And in 10 or 15 years are we going to be happy with the state of government control in countries like Australia, NZ, UK etc given what we've got out of it?

There's a hack I worked out years ago where you set up a dummy email account and have your bank notify it by email every time there's a transaction over $0.01. Do a little HTML crawling and you've got a transactions database.
I fully agree. I had two situations in the past 2 years where cars almost ran into me (as a pedestrian) doing a left turn, with screeching tires just barely avoiding me. In both of these cases I probably got out without an accident because I expect drivers to be idiots and was careful enough to act accordingly.
Your original comment claimed that merely watching the (alleged) hypocrisy of grieving parents was more painful than losing a child. That is very different from claiming that the collective suffering of millions outweighs the suffering of one parent. The latter is trivially true.

We saw some "too many laws and regulations" efforts in Minnesota. It largely was a small government kind of PR stunt as they cleaned up some random rarely used laws... that really we're just sitting there, plus the standard deregulation on behalf of donors that they likely would do anyway....

After there was legislative turnover those folks lost the majority and if only to drive the point home the other party removed a law that shielded husbands from rape charges...if there was a law that needed to be removed that was a good choice, but the other party didn't touch it.

I think to do it right you really need to prepare and study the big picture before you legislate out things on a large scale.
If you want to be paid more: ask for more. It is astonishing how few people do.
I'm using F# tooling in Linux and both VS Code and Jetbrains Rider's IDE's outclass most functional language IDE's at present IMO. It's greatly improved within the last year or so. If you use code most of your app in F# the null factor doesn't really bite you all too often and its not too hard to handle when it does.
This is a fantastic quote
Our inherently isolating automobile-scaled environments will always be a stressful, mental illness-inducing lifestyle. Humans are built for complete walking-distance communities, not subdivisions and collector roads. People cling to city centers because they are the only places it is legal to build the kind of pedestrian-scale density we would have recognized as home through most of human history.

I found this piece on "Sabbath as alarm" [0] through Slate Star Codex, and it resonated for me:

>One more useful attribute of the Jewish Sabbath is the extent to which its rigid rules generate friction in emergency situations. If your community center is not within walking distance, if there is not enough slack in your schedule to prep things a day in advance, or you are too poor to go a day without work, or too locally isolated to last a day without broadcast entertainment, then things are not okay.

> I think we can all agree that regulations and taxes should be fairly and equally applied.

I get what you mean, so this is not a dunk on you, the words "fairly" and "equally" are at odds in this sentence. "Equally" implies a steady disinterest in marginal utility and situational value; it's where we get Anatole France's "the law, in its majestic equality, forbids rich and poor alike to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal their bread." I would suggest "equitably" over "equally".

I agree with the general thrust of your point. But this is the door through which nasty shit sometimes sneaks.

It ultimately comes down to trust. For example, if the Chinese president decided to make a law that they can't demand data from Chinese companies any more, it's not like Trump would roll this back. Similar to Snowden, do you still trust our government isn't spying on us anymore?

To slow down local neighborhood traffic my neighbors put out an old single construction cone (someone has a source of heavily used cones so when they're stolen no big deal) in the middle of the road.

Folks slow down and easily drive around it. It is highly effective even when it isn't there as I suspect the local speeder folks anticipate the random construction cone might be back at anytime...

I tried looking up terrorism statistics and found this: https://ourworldindata.org/terrorism

For most countries, it doesn't look like much has changed from 1970-2017.

I glanced at hate crime stats on the FBI website (just looking at 2008 and 2017), with 7,783 and 7,175 crimes reported for each year). So not much change there either.

Obviously this is a half-assed attempt, but I just wanted to counter the idea that the world is falling apart. Hopefully someone who has more interest in these things can provide some studies with more comprehensive statistics.
Kik and the SEC: What’s Going on and What Does It Mean for Crypto?
Wow, I dealt with this guy / company Micfo LLC at my previous employer a few years back. He had our DC announce a range and all his documents checked out. Some other dude reached out to our ipadmin address saying we were announcing his range. The Micfo guys had forged the documents or something shady and we removed the announcement for his range. He was very upset and claimed the other party was sour over some deal. He ended up leaving when we pushed back on him announcing new ranges. He provided more excuses on why he didn't have things then actual documentation. He tried to come back a couple years later but we told him to kick rocks.
Thanks. Again, I am asking out of ignorance:

What is PHP's concurrency model? Is it still a forked process pool via something like PHP-FPM, or has it changed?

Does the VM enforce a GIL? I'm assuming there is some kind of threading API?

Can you run an event loop using epoll, and is the standard library well supported in that execution model?

FYI, I was a PHP developer from 2003-2011. I did enjoy it back then. I never bought into the Rails hype at the time, opting instead for copycats like Yii and CI.

But I was ignorant. Honestly, after switching to Python for web dev, I saw no reason to ever return. Since then, I've dropped web dev altogether, and I now work in C++, Java, and Python on a daily basis.

It may be the nature of the work, but I still cringe at the thought of using PHP again after learning how capable other general purpose languages are. From a CS point of view, working in PHP just isn't very interesting... or pleasant.
