Assuming I'm an average user, this revolution would require my phone to double the time spent transmitting and receiving data, and block off a large chunk of its internal storage for information I don't care about.

If you "would contest" that, it's because you still haven't read the essay that was linked in the putatively off-topic comment you were "responding" to, after eight years. And, yeah, you could try to redefine "VR" and even "3D interfaces" (the actual topic) as being strictly limited to "binocular video responding to a head tracker", but even "VR" researchers have been researching haptic and kinesthetic feedback from a zillion angles for a lot more than eight years, so I don't think it's off-topic at all.
You can do the same thing with author information as well... had some fun with a Junior developer the other day who I was showing something to, and I just modified my commit as thought it was from him.
I am sure they have thought about, but decided against it.

However, I think, what they should have done is have an open-sourced language runtime, and closed source some subset of the libraries.

In other words, keep eco-system open-sourced (and also protected from patent abuse), while maintaining some libraries closed source.

Perhaps, Wolfram believes that the competitive/money making advantage is in the engine, not in the libraries.

But if that's the case, then the open source competition is closer to beating it, than we think.
> They sure liked repeating "secure encrypted infrastructure".

Their audience is people who know those words and know that they want them, but might not know what they mean. Using technically accurate details when addressing people who don't understand the vocabulary is generally a recipe for misery.

Yup. Corporate/business taxes to begin with are not so smart because because businesses can basically incorporate in any jurisdiction for reduced or 0% tax rates. Many countries have "free trade zones" with 0% business taxes. Those countries still benefit though because their citizens get jobs they might not otherwise have access to. With free trade agreements, it is easier than ever to have your headquarters in a tax haven and then manufacture and sell your products worldwide.

> Why am I not more pissed about this? I think because ‘maybe yes forever later’ isn’t a sign of G’s dominance or power over my life, it’s a sign that they’re afraid of losing it all and are employing dark patterns to hold on to me. And like most strategies conceived in desperation, it has a 50/50 chance of backfiring and driving people away.

This is too optimistic. Google has got a grip on consumers and they will certainly not be driven away by dark patterned prompts. Anyway it's definitely not 50/50.

I use gmail and I value privacy, I pay for g-suite though.

I tried all of them, fastmail, protonmail, tutanota, Runbox and a few others, and none of them came close to using gmail. So I figured, what the hell, g-suite is around the same price and it gets me 30gb of cloud storage as well.

I wish google was a little more clear on where the privacy starts and ends though. Like if you want to use google home with a g-suite, you have to enable a bunch of tracking. I know this has to do with the fact that google wants to separate business from personal use, but really, I don’t want two e-mails.
In my youth, us Amiga demoscene coders used this method too. You could basically measure CPU consumption by some sub-routine by setting a particular color on entry, then resetting on exit. Basically "raster lines" became a measure of time.

Pretty sure I optimized by putting a piece of tape at the exit line on the TV, then trying to make the color bar more narrow. :)
Literally the reason why PCs won over mainframes. Users want to run the software they want to run.

If you don't trust your users to run software on your server you probably shouldn't let them on your server in the first place... or else contain and isolate them with a VM or similar.

Multi-user operating systems are feeling a bit like they are going the way of the dodo, to me... That is acutall multi-user systems, not user accounts for system services.

Not 100% true, you're right, but the thinness is definitely the reason ethernet went. My 2010 had an RJ45 on it, and there's just no room for it on the 2015 or the later ones. However, I do think the design aesthetic that calls for thinness is related to the design aesthetic that fetishizes the simplicity of having as few blemishes on the case as possible. Floppy eject button? We can do it in software. Mouse buttons? Reduce it to one. No wait, reduce it to zero (magic mouse). Trackpad buttons? Remove them. Ports? As few as possible. Sleek. I feel like putting on a black turtleneck.

> The appeal was that even though I know how to set up arch on my own, it takes about 2 hours or so.

I've used Arch on and off for about eight years. The first time I set it up, it took about 2 hours. I just tried again last week, and it took all day.

They used to have a super-basic installer, but it sped things. They removed that in favor of detailed instructions on archwiki. Now, they've basically obliterated the install instructions. Whereas it was once a step-by-step guide with call outs to more detailed pages, now it is just a set of stubs that send you to other detail pages. And it is not opinionated at all.

Want a full-disk encryption setup, but haven't installed arch in couple years? Be prepared to spend a lot of time researching everything that goes into that stack, with very little guidance as to what is typical practice.
How does this work? You don't need to disclose secret sauce per se, just enough to understand the legality and robustness of using it.
Most of those "double-irish" tax tricks are actually illegal tax evasion. The IRS has recently been auditing these companies and hitting them hard with back taxes. The transfer pricing rules clearly state that the transfer pricing must represent the nature of your business. You can't specifically use transfer pricing to reduce taxes on purpose.

Everybody in Argentina knows what she and her friends used to do in conferences, how she manipulate people to do her bidding (like the poor bastard here) how many people they had put behind bars, they have nothing to do with infosec. The guy was the only one that legally fought them and won, now it is time to pay, and this is their last desperate stand.
I finally verified that yes, 30 hours is acceptable where I work. It's been done, along with 32, and possibly shorter. Most of the benefits are pro-rated, but we'd still cover the health insurance fully. You could still work more and get paid for those extra hours, but the benefits would be according to how many hours you signed up to work.

Examples: If you sign up for 30 hours but work 50 hours, you get 75% benefits and 125% pay. If you sign up for 32 hours but work 38 hours, you get 80% benefits and 95% pay.

Just because their 5g tech is the best in no way prices they didn't steal ip to get where they are.

I am not expert on networking equipment by any means. But I would assume that 5g equipment is built upon previous technology.

It would thus follow that stealing the preceding, underlying technology and then focusing resources on building out the 5g part of the tech would be the fastest/cheapest way to become a leader in 5g.
No, we know that P != EXP_TIME, by the time hierarchy theorem - i.e. we know some problems (and we do have concrete examples) take exponential time. What we don't know is that there exists a problem that requires exponential time (or otherwise greater than polynomial) where we can create a proof that a answer is correct which is checkable in polynomial time.

What are you talking about?

CSS has nothing to do with Munsell hues or NCS hues. I have no idea what you mean by “NSL”.

The “HSL” / “HWB” hue circle is just a trivial transformation of the RGB cube (namely: zigzag along the 6 most colorful edges of the cube at constant speed), designed by non-color-expert computer programmers based on what was convenient to implement on workstation computers from the late 1970s (note: these considerations are not relevant 40 years later), and has almost nothing to do with human perception.

It is nowhere near perceptually uniform (unlike the goals of Munsell hues), and also does not have human-perception-meaningful landmarks like the NCS cardinal directions.

If you follow a circle of constant “W” and “B” in the “HWB” model, at constant speed in terms of “H”, then a typical human observer will see wildly varying “lightness”, “colorfulness”, “saturation”, “whiteness”, “blackness” with respect to their own perception, and will see perceived hue change at highly irregular and unsmooth speed.

Genuinely curious, when would it be the best use of my time? Is there any scenario where "Read TAOCP and gain X superpowers" would hold true? I have been wanting to get into this for some time now because I like the idea of intellectual pursuit but I also hoped that some benefits, however incidental, would carry over into my career.

Contiki – Ultra Tiny OS for IoT
I've gradually unlearned the anxiety-driven procrastination habits that I picked up in school but it's taken almost as long as the time I spent in the system:

* I now focus on developing my own feedback mechanisms rather than worry about assigned/external ones. If you have a large enough number of "required to succeed" and "instant fail if this occurs" signals, you can know roughly how well you are doing without anyone to guide you.

* I focus on work as a cycle, rather than tasks to be cleared out. The converse of the procrastinating is the idea that if you rush around enough, you will open up time for something else, something better, but what that something is, is a big ??? The cyclical approach keeps me more grounded in hammering out a few hours of work on a regular basis, which is more sustainable.

* I look for opportunities to use my "activated" levels of energy to chase after a thread of a problem. I often don't know how long anything takes, but what I do know is that I'm doing more if I periodically throw myself at the work and solve the things I can solve and use the rest to develop more feedback(if I failed: okay, why?) - and doing this cyclically makes it sustainable.

I still have periods where my work energy is low, but the causes are typically more obvious: stress is up, I found a new game that captured my attentiom, etc.
My $.02: As others have noted, there is some level of intimidation that contributed to me using Antergos. That being said, I did a reinstall a few months ago and decided I would do it "for real" this time. I followed the Arch wiki for each step, learned a huge amount about the way the OS installs, the drive partitioning works, and made it to the bootloader step. And that's where I ran into issues.

Once I rebooted, I couldn't get the bootloader to load arch. I spent about two days trying different methods from the Arch Wiki before I decided that a) I had learned a huge amount and b) I didn't need the "geek cred" that came with a vanilla install of Arch.

I went back to Antergos and am quite happy. I manually build packages from AUR, read the wiki when I need to setup something and am happy with it.

I use i3 currently, so perhaps I'll give the install another go, but I may just switch to Manjaro.

Happy to hear any tips, though!
I use Firefox's password manager, and their new LockWise extension gives a fresh breath to password management. Nice work!
Yes, and nobody understands why. Beautiful, isn't it :-)
Similar situation here I have Antergos on 3 diff systems and being using it for past 3 years longest I have used any distro before switching to new one. It was such a good arch spinoff.
Ubuntu Server's default install comes with (at least) a DHCP client and an NTP client. Maybe more things, those are just the two I checked.

Sure, you can use static IPs, and disable NTP, and take other steps to harden your server and reduce your attack surface. But remote exploits for random default programs are routinely discovered, so defense in depth is just a good idea.
Really the key quote is:

Try reading "The State and Revolution". It explains why democracy and capitalism are antagonistic forces. A 2014 landmark study showed that a basic assumption of the book, that the rich basically determine policy in a liberal democracy, is essentially correct in America. Unfortunately, the rich cannot be tamed under capitalism because they can perform a coordinated capital strike that brings the economy, and the regulatory system, to its knees. This is the private power that they have.

Helm 3: simpler to use, more secure to operate
This book is my attempt to make Clojure more accessible for newcomers.

The book teaches at a digestible pace the syntax and the main concepts of the language.

This is part of a "Get Programming" series by Manning, which means that the reader is guided from concrete to abstract until the ideas are fully integrated.

The book is organised in Units where each Unit is made of 2 to 4 Lessons. Another aspect of the pragmatic approach:

- Lots of code snippets in each Lesson

- Several exercises at the end of each Lesson

- A Capstone Project at the end of each Unit

The book is in MEAP (Manning Early Access Program) stage which means that for now only the digital version is available and 5 out of 16 Units are published. (When a new Unit is published, the reader gets notified.)

Hopefully you'd find interest in this book whether you are a Clojure beginner and want to learn the basics of Clojure in a structured way or a Clojure experienced developer and want to help your friends or teammates in their Clojure journey.

I am very interested in hearing comments (in particular improvement suggestions) both about the approach and the realisation.
Same for Koreans. Capitalizing the first character of the 'generational' name and lowercase for given name could work.

But I think emphasizing the given name offers better UX so given name should be all caps and family name should be all lowercase like this: YUNG Kam soh or soh Kam YUNG.

Toxic is contextual to an individual. Some products don't affect all life forms the same way, or at the same dose. Same for communities: you know if you are in a toxic one if you can objectively observe it brings unacceptable suffering to you when you are in it.

Same with abusing relationships.

Very smart people predicted correctly what was going to happen but they buried it for making money. So an article about how the calculations might still be wrong or on the high side is bullshit being spread by the same people that have been denying global warming for decades. First it was the climate is not getting warmer then it was the warming is not caused by humans now it is that the calculations are wrong and the climate wont get as warm as being predicted. Oil companies like Exxon have spent billions to fuck up the debate on climate change by different arguments to be able to sell as much oil and for as long as possible.
