I feel like the data here should have some way of corrections for both growth in driving population as well as prices of vehicles. Without that, it's difficult to tell if this absolute growth in number is of concern, or it's more like movie blockbuster numbers, which keep growing in absolute terms but don't necessarily indicate a higher percentage of people have seen that movie in its theater run.
Ryzen has 24 PCIe lanes: 16 for graphics (can be split to 8/8), 4 for NVMe storage, and 4 for the chipset. So you get 4 more lanes compared to Intel's consumer platforms.

This is also how non-standard and standards-track CSS features work . The vendors promotes CSS keys like -webkit-marquee-rainbow-animation-spectrum while waiting until all the browser vendors agree on the final spec for marquee-rainbow-animation-spectrum.

For unix tools, downstream vendors could choose to rename the binary (redhat-procps) or rename the flags (procps -- rh-c) if it wasn't incredibly ugrent to choose a single-letter flag name.

Tidal offer a "CD quality" 1411kbps option. I tried their trial but I honestly couldn't tell the difference vs Spotify when I got the other half to test me. And at twice the price I couldn't justify it. Perhaps that says more about my ears and my audio setup but that's just my findings.
I love that everyone took this as a serious comment.
What do I miss when converting to a lossy format? There are plenty of articles stating that the human ear cannot hear difference between lossless and 192 kbps. The second part I can agree with though.
'It's normal usage' doesn't mean it's okay to a normal person or in any way reasonable. Hence all the privacy debate in recent years. Personally, I'm not okay with tracking pixels and would turn them off if I could.

I'm not an expert but AFAIK VCF isn't "raw" data. Raw data would be the output of a sequencer (fastq) which would be several gigabytes.

I'm not sure I understand the business model Derrick was pursuing, but the objective seems very interesting. Maybe instead of shutting it down he should consider pivoting Level to a FOSS approach modeled on something like lichess. Maybe a set of early adopter companies would be interested in joining in to help build and support the product. There would obviously be less or maybe no immediate financial incentive in it for him, but he would be continuing with a very constructive aim. In my experience, that kind of involvement in a growing project usually pays dividends, one way or another.

I've lost three friends over the years to psychotic episodes or schizophrenic breakdowns so I've seen several examples of what happens to people and it all comes down to financial means. The friend born to a wealthy family had a safety net to fall back on. Same for the friend born to a very religious family.

As for the friend from a poor family, it was horrible to watch what everyone involved had to go through. He was a happily married man in his mid 20's. Decided to go off his meds and not tell anyone. It didn't help that he had never told us about his mental illness, but that was his choice. He snapped, left his wife and vanished for a while. When he was brought home his parents could not keep him in their house as he was prone to threaten violence. He even threatened me once during this period. Since they had no insurance they could not house him at a facility. The only thing they could do was pay for him to live in a motel, one within their abilities which meant the cheapest motel they could find, one known for drug users. My friend had previously had a problem with drugs, had to go to court mandated Narcotics Anonymous, even had a mentor to help him. Despite having cleaned up for over 10 years, here he was in a motel full of drug dealers and users while in the midst of a psychotic breakdown.

The last time I ever saw him he was having a fit in a field near a mall. I stopped to help him, he was in a fugue state thinking he was in World War 3. he smelled of urine and his clothes were a mess. I drove him to a local YMCA because I had no idea what else to do. They told me there was nothing they could do, but agreed to take him in for the day and see if they could clean him up. Knowing he was prone to violent behavior I figured that wouldn't work out.

I never saw him again. A friend of five years just evaporated. But what I saw is that if you are poor and have a mental breakdown, and your family has no means to help you, you are screwed and have no choice but to live on the street.
Hasn't suicide rates increased along with mental health coverage/therapist usage?

It seems like everyone is seeing a therapist nowadays. Why are suicide rates still increasing?

Is there any real scientific proof that therapy or mental health coverage does anything?

Why was suicide lower when nobody was using therapist? Why is it increasing now that so many people see therapist?

What's with the neverending drive to get people to take more drugs, spend more on counseling, etc? Every week there is an article about how depressed we are or how lonely we are and all the pharmaceutical or therapy that can help.
I also keep recommending this book to everyone. The TL;DR is: NEVER ask questions about hypotheticals. Ask people about what they do, how much they pay, how much time it takes, and so on. Facts, not answers to "Would you use this if...?"
That's the same thing. The same number of people exist with mental health issues regardless of whether they're receiving treatment. With stray animals you can round them up, castrate them and throw them back. With people you look after them. Either way the same number exists with or without treatment.

> What about for the newer processors like the 9980XE

The 9980XE is Skylake. It's not actually a "new" processor at all. Consumer parts were released in 2015 (Core ix-6xxx) & server parts in 2015 as well (Xeon E3-v5).

In fact the 9980XE itself isn't even a new offering in the HEDT space for Intel, as it's basically a rebrand of the 7980XE. The differences are just a soldered heat-spreader instead of paste & a small clock bump to go along with that. It's +200mhz turbo & +400mhz base, complete with a power consumption increase to match.

EDIT: The 9900K (Coffee Lake) does have in-silicon mitigations for Meltdown & L1TF (Foreshadow), though: https://www.anandtech.com/show/13450/intels-new-core-and-xeo...
There is significantly more intellectual stimulation in encountering a Pokémon, determining if it is worth capturing (good base stats, rare personality, rare moves, colors, etc), and choosing from a set of capture strategies depending on the circumstance.

Maybe this Pokémon flees if attacked or frightened. That's OK, use Bind with a high-speed starter. Needs a particular status condition? Can't get their health too low? Only a particular grade ball works? Only a special ball made out of fruit by some weird creep in the neck of the woods? They only come out at certain times? You have to track their migration patterns? Hold certain items? Complete certain tasks?

Little to none of these nuances carried over to the Let's Go series in their fleshed-out form. Sure, a lifetime of grinding out wild battles makes them feel a bit stale, but it doesn't mean the nuance isn't there. It just becomes routine for experienced players. These experienced players feel like they have nothing to do or think about when the entire strategy is just repeatedly flicking a Pokéball with their thumb.

Ultimately, design choices like this meant to bring in the casual audience are cheap and non-cognizant of veteran fans. You think Nintendo would have learned from this after failing to recapture most of the transient market acquired during the Wii run once they attempted to usher in the Wii U.
For anyone not following what was done here: they added a tracking pixel. This is a single-pixel image with "src=<myserver>". You send it to someone and get the IP address of everyone who opens the email because they download the image. (This is why your email client asks if you want to open images).

It's not malware, really, and it can't harm a local computer that opens it.

But it is a sign that the prosecutors in this case believed the reporter would forward the email on to their source, giving the prosecutors the IP address of that person. And there is some question of whether that's ethical or not.

why?
That's an interesting dilemma. If your goal is to get your source code to be used by lots of people, then it seems logical to use an as permisive license as possible to "compete" with other open source projects. But it might be short-sighted, because then if your code gets incorporated in proprietary projects it may become used a lot, but it won't propagate, it won't generate new projects that might get even more use. If on the other hand you want to get your source code into the hands of as many people as possible (that is not only users but empowered ones), that's different, and a licence like the GPL that is inherited (I don't like the term "viral" very much, it seems too pejorative) seems better, but then they can't compete against more permissive licences, so they can't "reproduce" that well either !

This is a "tragedy of the commons" of sorts. If all open source projects could collaborate and choose a single license, what would it be ?
Asking another poster to familiarize themselves with history of which they may not be aware is in that style? Strange.
Harsh, but completely true
Any action by the government that can be seen to be chilling toward a free press can be interpreted as a violation of the first amendment. It's not as black and white as you make it out to be, and remember new precedents are being set all the time. They're also in the ninth circuit which is historically hugely favorable to these kinds of cases. You get a strong enough case, a lot of money and a creative lawyer, you might be able to make some caselaw here. There's at least a baseline argument for it.

That said, target is not irrelevant for illegality. There's also an issue of ethics in targeting other lawyers; if I was the defense lawyer this is the issue I'd be pushing like crazy with the judge, ethics panels, etc. Right or wrong, they can do something with that, esp. if they can get some discovery that proves there was actually an attempt to target -- that would be huge. (And they're not allowed to delete any documents to that effect since they are the government).

You could make this same argument to argue that Slack would fail against email.

Something like: there are all kinds of email integrations, user-specific and group-specific setups, etc. at companies. How can Slack ever compete?

The answer was that Slack was so much better for many companies that it made sense to suffer the pain of switching.

The company that beats Slack will likely be 10x better communication software or something very similar but distributed much more effectively (maybe Microsoft Teams in the enterprise).
He's not talking about ROI for the consumer, he's talking about ROI for the author who put time into writing a novel. Take Dickens, who was famously opposed to the lack of copyright laws in America at the time and felt that he was getting cheated by people who read his work without paying him. I wonder how many people sent him money out of good will?

Yes, there is Patreon for supporting creators, but very few people make a decent living this way. And many authors would prefer a publisher who helps them take a risk by fronting money to something like Patreon, where you are at the mercy of your consumers who may or may not give you enough money to create your work.
Dangerous manual labor roles, like those served by UMW and UFW, certainly benefited upon their organization decades ago, but labor law and enforcement is much stronger now.
You don't seem to understand the basics of how Java web containers work. The thread stack size is irrelevant in most cases. You're going to be using a thread pooled server anyway to handle requests. Conceptually this is no different than using a forked model. You just use a pool of threads instead of processes.

Are you telling me that you run a process pool of thousands of PHP instances on a single machine? I hope not.

Your notion that forked = better is outdated. Running processes has overhead, even with read only shared mem. Micro processes are the way to go, and are being embraced by newer languages. You get min mem and context switching overhead, along with the parallelization of running on multiple cores.

Even so, threads are still going to be lighter weight than forking new "heavy weight" (non micro) processes.

And this doesn't even get into the more efficient compilation. PHP has no JIT yet. There's overhead for type inference. Etc etc
There's no question, really. It's not ethical by any means. If it wasn't a military court the judge would spank them, hard. But the defense could still report the prosecuting attorneys to the state bar.

It always strikes me as strange that we spend our own effort and time on systems that mandate code style when my unambiguously correct style and my coworkers obviously incorrect style both end up converted to the same AST for any useful work. Why isn't style an entirely local choice, with a higher-level representation of the code stored canonically?

To expand a little, I think the biggest issue that Chelsea has with a grand jury is that the entire process is sealed. If it were a public hearing then she would be much more likely to testify, because we would know what was asked, what was answered, and we would know what this entire process is about.

We only assume that this grand jury is about Julian Assange (because what else would Chelsea's testimony be relevant for?), but we actually don't know. This could be a political witch hunt for any variety of reasons, and we might never find out. An opaque justice system is probably not a good thing, since we just have to trust that the people in charge will do the right thing- and we have seen countless times throughout history that the people in charge often do the wrong thing and attempt to cover it up.

For a time, users on many instances were able to read/modify data that they shouldn't have been. They got full CRUD access to -all data-. This includes some external users of things like Customer and Partner portals (where functionality and data are made available to external users via Salesforce). When they decided to try to mitigate the issue, they locked down all access and took away CRUD permissions from all users/profiles in Salesforce on those affected instances.

We woke up to a bunch of users unable to do their jobs because they suddenly started receiving "NO ACCESS" errors, effectively. We also haven't been able to modify the profiles and fix the access effectively.
