I am guessing this is pure Input latency? what I want to know is End to End latency, from Input > OS > Display.

I wonder if we will ever get sub 5ms in End to End Latency.
I appreciate all attempts at improving this kind of auto suggesting but for me simple buffer based string completion is still vastly superior to anything VSCode offers out of the box (I work as a front end dev). Way too often VSCode suggets methods and snippets that are totally irrelevant while ignoring a string that's just a few lines await. So far no configuration settings helped with that. So bottom line vim's built-in buffer completion is more efficient at least for the work I do.

TabNine is actually the only thing that I could see myself switching to.

IOS (and iPhone) were trademarks owned by Cisco so Apple had to license them. As far as I remember for iPhone they just released it and then bargained using the exclusive vpn client being Cisco’s. I don’t know what they gave for iOS.

There were an hours' worth of tweets before the status page changed. For Ops quite a shitty hour of uncertainty.
I had the great displeasure to work on multiple state-of-the-art algorithms related to sticking things in buckets with varying degrees of optimisation and/or supervision. There are a ton of reasonably recent papers for that, some of them have source code (most of them have nigh-impenetrable theory on why their algorithm is the best) and every case I tested was emphatically much worse than the technologies we've been using for 10+ years in any practical sense.

That problem is compounded with the issues you describe, which I'd categorise as probably the best case. I did not find even a single case of a properly opensourced repository that just compiled somewhere that wasn't the researcher's laptop.
I have a mill and a lathe. These are wonderful for one-offs. With an injection mold I first need to create a mold and then the object. I just don't see the point (apart form maki9ng hundreds of the same object). Why not create the object directly? Afaik injection molding has even more restrictions compared to subtractive shaping (I've seen amazing things done with the latter).
Said the same about zfs.
I'm not in any way an Apple fan and only look at their ecosystem via VM, but I curious. What company have more convenient integration of both own proprietary services and 3rd-party one? As I see it with Apple you can be at least fairly sure their products going to have good integration within their closed-garden ecosystem. With anyone else not even this is guaranteed and you'll likely be bombarded by ads.

I'm among the guys who use FOSS everywhere and it's just hard to setup and maintain own infrastructure like Desktop+Laptop+Phone+Cloud+Services integration. So I wonder if you know better options.
I'm not sure if you need the consent of both guardians normally.
And unfortunatelly iOS version doesn't use background tasks. So when in background it won't sync any of your photos. And app will also warn you about that.
Have the definitions/concepts of research in its various forms kept constant in these figures?

I would defer to people with more enterprise hardware experience than me for serious NAS set ups, but my experience with various generations of 12 disks synology nas is that you loose a lot of performance to disk vibrations / inefficiencies of the raid implementation / sync between drives / tcp, etc. So I don't think it scales linearly. With a synology DS3615 and 12 HGST Helium drives in RAID5, I barely get over 1GB/s locally while each drive individually is capable of over 200MB/s sustained speed.

Could you list some instances where the Democrats have automatically rejected ideas from the Republicans? And then perhaps contrast that with the corresponding list from the other side?

From my viewpoint in UKOGBANI, the Democrats just plain don't do this whilst the Republicans (and particularly McConnell) wilfully delight in blocking -anything- they can.

I don't see it mentioned anywhere, but to me it's obvious they intentionally went for an actual "cheese grater" look, as a play on the old "cheese grater" Mac legacy.

Don't those latencies add up?

In the worst case 60Hz + this new pen will add up to (16 + 9) 15ms of latency, right?

If the screen refreshes at T=0,16,33,50 and you create input at T=8 then the input will be processed at T=17 (8+9), so you will need to wait for T=33 before it show up for a total latency of 25ms (33-8).

Which is a lot better than the potential total latency of 36ms with a 20ms pen.
GCE not even mentioned in the "Impact" section, only Google own services. Maybe it's all they care about when work on GCP.
I was curious why a law like that would not cause more scrutinity other than that one website. After looking it up, the law is from this past March and has only been discussed by a couple of French-language sites. This is not causing more alarm because the data was previously available only in printed form, which meant that typically only a lawyer would access it, and only on a case-per-case basis. So in practice the data is being made more easily available, but in a limited form. They're basically handling this like it's a whois request.

The law specifically state that what is illegal is publishing data identifying a judge ("Les données d'identité des magistrats et des membres du greffe ne peuvent faire l'objet..."), so publishing general or anonymized stats is legal. For stats regarding a judge I guess one would have to rely on the previously available printed format. Why that is I have no idea, the only argument I've seen is some vague reference to protecting againt "judge/lawyer AI", which I can't make sense of in this context (is judge AI even a thing?). This seems to me to be some kind of over-reaction to new tech.

I've come to call these type of laws 'Peak French': unforeseen issue on the horizon? No worries, just lock everything down and pretend the problem is solved.

Believe me, after a few seconds of waiting I always pass slowly on the right. It might not be legally perfect, but is the accepted way of handling drivers that are an obstacle on the left.
Not sure how true this is.

I run my own infra (caldav,carddav,imap/smtp) and all of it intergrates seamlessly into iOS and macOS. I tried the same on android and it did not work seamlessly with anything except google services.

Sure, their own stuff works better with their own stuff, and yes, the watches can't be configured without a phone, but that's also true of android.

I think you are right. Might be because such a network is flexible, provides what you need, when you need it, and it only appreciates with time. Unlike say a car or a new phone which quickly depreciate and rarely adapt (can be adapted) to your future needs.
Hi, would you consider remote applicants? Thanks
> People here are amazed when I tell that story, 120 in a Honda?

It took me a moment to get why that's supposed to be such a feat.

But it's miles-per-hour. So you were doing ~190 km/h. Yeah, that's about the top speed I would expect from such a car.

The few times when I was doing that speed in a Mitsubishi, I didn't have a problem with steadyness but I had the feeling the car was being lifted up due to the air currents.

Quite a strange feeling becoming airborne in a non flying vehicle.

>I personally don't have a problem with it, but I am not a communist.

The way this reads to me is: If you were against it, it could only be because you were a communist. #mcCarthyism
Interesting. My favourite is the A5 near Frankfurt with 4 Lanes on Sunday evening. Usually the whole traffic is on the left lanes. When I hit the end of this "traffic jam" I'm using the rightest (!) lane to slow down from 200 km/h down to around 120 km/h to match the left lanes because nearly nobody is driving there.

If I'm not driving "gemütlich" (like not in hurry), I stick to 120-130 km/h. For faster travels my personal enduring maximum is 180 km/h. Everything above is very exausting (and fuel consuming).

Regarding "safe" driving: There is probably a lot more than traffic. A45 has some unlimited sections with three lanes, but the curves are strong. With 200+ km/h (if you dare), you'll feel strong G-forces. Thrilling but also dangerous!

My personal advices would be:
Observe how traffic works, see some idiots pulling left without using blinkers.
It's often possible to tell if someone is going to change the lane in the next seconds.

Monitor the traffic with your mirrors.
Don't underestimate speed and keep track of the cars near to you. Especially on the left lane you have to manage looking forward and into the mirror.

And last:
Drive only as fast as you can.
Cars tend to get noisy or tend to steer left or right. Be honest to yourself, if you feel that the car is flying, very sensitive to any steering or you simply clutch the steering wheel, you are on/above your limit.

However: The memes are true: On a lot days, it's not even possible to maintain speed around 130 km/h (probably depending on your route)
Doesn’t claws have a reusable library for that sort of thing?
So I'm a web dev but in a previous role we bought a 2 man company that made medical renders. I ended up making them a mini-SAS Raid 5 made out of SSDs. This is before M.2 started taking off.

The website (with toy Fake News generator): https://rowanzellers.com/grover/

The paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1905.12616.pdf

First impressions: naturally the examples in the article are cherry picked, but the AI still manages to display an unusually high level of coherence. It demonstrates thematic chaining across sentences and inserts real facts along with plausible ones:

"McMahon also made it clear he thought Omarosa Manigault Newman, a White House aide who has written a tell-all book, was “incompetent”. Trump has been critical of Manigault Newman but said last year he could “understand why she is disgruntled”."

The fact about Newman is correct - she has written a "tell-all" book. The Trump statement is plausible in context (unless of course you happen to know Trump[1]) and naturally follows from the previous statement.

The paragraph-level coherence is not all it could be, but it's easy to miss that if you're reading quickly. There's definitely some wow here.

[1] Here's an actual Trump quote about Newman: "While I know it's 'not presidential' to take on a lowlife like Omarosa, and while I would rather not be doing so, this is a modern day form of communication and I know the Fake News Media will be working overtime to make even Wacky Omarosa look legitimate as possible. Sorry!"
U2F on Firefox works well GitHub in my experience; it's Google that's the problem. Mozilla have added a shim to enable login to Google using a key but (due to spec deviance) if you want to add a key you still need to use Chrome :(.
That depends a lot by what you call culturally diverse. This map makes you think that Africa is the most diverse continent of all, but the fact is pretty much only the US has and continues receiving people from all over the world, and not just neighboring countries.
In the UK everyone's on the right lane anyway, with the other lanes mostly empty.

It's a wonderful theory, but here are some counterexamples off the top of my head:

Yamamoto: studied extensively in the US but led the charge to attack the US in WWII. Thought we'd be a pushover.

Matsuoko: contemporary of Yamamoto who became Foreign Secretary and similarly though attacking the US was a good idea

Qutb: his time in the US convinced him that the US was evil - he created the philosophical basis for modern islamic terrorism and the Muslim Brotherhood

We have laws against murder and yet people commit it all the time. What kind of argument are you trying to make?

Both Google and Facebook have been hit with lawsuits in the EU. The laws are there and companies violating them are being punished. One could argue that the punishment is not large enough, if companies still repeatedly violate the laws. It'll take some time though until we see whether companies change their stance on privacy. One company which doesn't need any 'encouragement' is Apple, that's pretty clear now.
Yeah, like somebody mentioned their awk version is from 2006 and buggy as hell. In Debian the packages are updated at least once in two years. In Apple case it’s pretty obvious that they don’t update anything after they changed app license to GPLv3
This is not at all "the accepted way" in Germany.
When you try to leave China, you're checked against a no-exit list and simply prevented from leaving if you're on it. No reason need be given to you. China currently keeps a number of political hostages this way and prevents undesirable nationals from leaving the country.

Most countries try to prevent undesirables from entering, china allows them to enter and then prevents them from leaving.

Nice observation. I hope the trend lives for a long time.
I find it funny that the first thing on their web site for a text-mode email client is a video screencast: as someone who likes spending time in text interfaces (terminal or emacs), it's exactly for the reasons videos are bad.

You can't skip-through videos to get to the part you care about which is obvious in a textual format (and it's obvious if it's even there). You can't copy and paste stuff. You usually have to have sound on to understand what's going on.

Sorry for ranting a bit about this modern tendency to record videos instead of write text :)
What software are you using for caldav?
This is pretty awesome. I see only two things missing :

- threading support, ideally with folding
In addition to wood movement, there's another important factor when it comes to hobbyist woodworkers: accuracy.

With modern adhesives and precision machining like Mathias' work will make mighty strong joints even out of the simplest joinery method. A precision made box joint glued with wood glue is stronger than a finely made dovetail joint.

But when it comes to me bodging away in my garage with hand tools, that kind of precision is not going to happen. But historical "strong" joints like dovetails and mortises and tenons with wedges and drawbores are very forgiving joints and are quite strong even when they're not made to sub-millimeter accuracy. I can join a decent box with dovetails in about 30 minutes, put it together with a few drops hide glue and fill the gaps with sawdust and it'll work great.

But someone with a table saw and a simple box joint jig could join 10 boxes in the same 30 minutes it took me to make one.
React with C++: Building the Quip Mac and Windows Apps (2015)
Two more things this made me remember, at least based on the savoir vivre in Poland (not sure if that's part of the culture in Germany too):

- It's considered very polite (kinda gentleman-grade polite) to change to the left (i.e. higher-speed) lane when you see a car building up speed to join the traffic from an acceleration lane (on the far right), to open a place in the traffic for them. That said, it's not "mandatory": you should only ever consider this as a lowest priority gesture, i.e. if noone's in sight getting ready to overcome you on the left. Conversely, if you're already driving fast on the acceleration lane and have trouble merging into the main traffic, and are already approaching the end of the acceleration lane, I've heard it recommended to stay on the subsequent "emergency lane" instead of e.g. reducing speed to a halt and trying to merge (or, obviously, forcing your way into some other car in the main lanes). It feels kinda risky, but the alternative of outright stopping, although it may feel tempting from basic instincts, is actually a huge immediate danger to you and everyone around.

- If you notice an unexpected, sudden congestion ahead, it's also considered good manners to blink your emergency lights, to signal a danger to drivers behind you. That said, I personally find it a rather difficult feat, given that if the congestion is sudden and unexpected, by definition it means I'm surprised by the situation, and thus quite busy handling the car and the gear trying to decelerate quickly but safely, while looking in all the mirrors and ahead at once to actively monitor the situation around. Searching for the rarely-used emergency lights switch is a risky distraction.
