I will say one thing in defense of flow-tv: you can be reasonably certain that what you have seen is the same as what every else have seen, so you have something in common with everybody that you can talk about.

In a fractured world where everybody has different truths and things they have seen, TV may be the one factor that ensures everybody at least have access to the same stories, even if they disagree with them.

Of course that is the experience before cable tv, not the experience of having 9000 channels, and none of them worth watching.

Wolfe's treatment of women is controversial. However, Severian is about 18 years old, and he grew up in a male-only community, so his perennial interest in women and shagging them is not unbelievable in this protagonist.

As for "events of no consequence", there are no such things in the book. Everything is somehow tied together, which is a large part of the book's appeal.

Not now obviously as it is not mainstream yet, but AVX512 makes developer's life way easier than older AVX sets. So I see no reason why game engine developers wouldn't use them in the future. For now only some server-specific workloads use AVX512.

Most of these networks (CNN, CBS) aren’t actually left leaning, except in comparison to Fox. Consider how much time they gave to stories like Hillary Clinton’s email server during 2016. They didn’t focus soley on Benghazi for a year, but that shouldn’t make a network “left-leaning”.
Your comment is very misleading. You are referring to a statement by a *Tesla spokesperson:

> “Tesla provides owners with clear guidance on how to properly use Autopilot, as well as in-car instructions before they use the system and while the feature is in use,” a Tesla spokeswoman said Friday. “If a Tesla vehicle detects that a driver is not engaged while Autopilot is in use, the driver is prohibited from using it for that drive.”
> Socialism and Communism are specifically to do with shared ownership and control of capital resources.

Yes, but know-how of all sorts - including both the freely-available content of sites such as Wikipedia and the institutional frameworks that are themselves embedded in the computer code of e.g. MediaWiki, Mastodon, PixelFed and PeerTube - is a form of capital, too. In a way, the article is not exactly wrong; it's just that this instance of socialism - along with a few others, such as socialization of basic, monopolized "platforms" on a rigorously neutral basis - postal services, roads, railways, power-grids etc. etc. - is the only one that can possibly work as part of a wealth-creating society. "Communal ... shared spaces" are capital in the "capitalist" sense, as much as a privately-owned factory is.

Humpty Dumpty smiled contemptuously. "Of course you don't—till I tell you. I meant 'there's a nice knock-down argument for you!' "
"But 'glory' doesn't mean 'a nice knock-down argument'," Alice objected.
"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less."

"Socialism" is notoriously challenging to define, but you can't have it mean whatever you want it to mean.

Maybe the point was to write an article so bad, that it would create a comment section on hacker news where people I'd wildly different world views could unanimously agree on something?
My guess is that it will be everything but the story that is auto generated for a long time. We already have this human does not exist etc, but creating a compelling story hasen't happened so far -- the closest thing we have had are automatic newspaper writers, so maybe documentaries? (Oh God, then it will be impossible to figure out if a given documentary is true or made up).

"Trained experts in radiation equiped with geiger counters and all the stuff, were unable to see it coming" Chapter 35.

They had one job. One small area to check for radiation leak in a controlled environment. How this could happen?

A) Maybe geiger counters can't detect Caesium radiation? I'm not expert in the area but would appreciate the point of view of some experts.

B) Geiger counters failed. How? didn't have batteries?

C) The leak was detected in time, but the culprit keeped his/her mouth firmly closed because... human nature. Not my fault. I didn't cut it.

D) There was not leak to detect (Leak was in a different area, Hidden second point of radiation like waste containers accumulated in the broom closet, ect)

Choose your option. In any case it feels like a lie again. This is not how you build trust on nuclear safety procedures.

Probably fairly similar to now, considering it was the end of the period of attempts at reform after the Gilded Age. Reform that often deliberately avoided the problem and made it worse, and noted now as the period when the number with extreme wealth sky rocketed. Again like today the extremely wealthy were distorting the agenda via targeted philanthropy. We talk now of billionaires, they of millionaires, when a million was still a huge amount.

Makes it very analogous to the scene after 2008, and the attempts at "fixing" the 08 banking crisis economy by not fixing the system but treating the symptom, or even climate change response. The 1920s wealth distribution and economy was structured to set the scene perfectly for the great 1929 crash and great depression. It remains to be seen how closely we track those...

It took a global depression and the two decades leading through WW2 to fix. 1945 on was a very different era. And we forgot - or deliberately threw out - every single lesson and regulation.

Australia ships toxic waste to Denmark, is that problematic in it self? No! Because a danish company offers services for safe disposal. If that company just dumbed the barrels of toxins in the ocean, would Australia be responsible?
In fairness, they are in a much better situation. They could swap to AMD with no real arch changes but I imagine they also would prefer their own CPUs. The fact of the matter is that these CPUs are built on the same exact process as the A12 by the same fab. I would expect, at the scale they are working, a next Apple ARM cpu could be scaled to Rome core counts and have “close” performance at hilariously lower prices.
I use Firefox daily on a Mac. It just works. Since Quantum or so, it works fast. Before that, I resorted to Chrome on Mac. And because of that, I resorted to Chrome in general. At work, in the virtual desktop (which I can actually avoid using most of the time) I only get to choose between IE or Chrome.

My point? You lost me as a Firefox user in the past. And I have been an avid Netscape Navigator, Netscape Communicator, Mozilla SeaMonkey (first milestones) and Mozilla Phoenix/Firebird/Firefox user in the past (I even used Phoenix 0.1). The only other browser which I used with pleasure, is Opera (with Presto).

It's not just that. I don't want a homogeneous browser culture. I believe that is bad on the long term.

To everyone who is saying "that is not socialism"

* Please talk to the US Republican Part and tell them to stop lying.

When someone (especially a Democrat) brings up universal healthcare, the GOP says "that's socialism!". When free tuition is brought up: "that's socialism!". Universal daycare: "that's socialism!". Carbon pricing: "socialism!". Higher taxes on upper income to pay for social programs: "socialism!".

The GOP has thrown the word "socialism" around as a boogeyman to the point that it is now meaningless in the US:

* https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/op-eds/defining-s...

This isn't the 1950s anymore.

The problem is not with the author's (Kevin Kelly [1]) use of the word, nor necessarily with the policies that are being proposed by some (left-leaning) politicians, but with the fact that the GOP (as a party) does not participate in US politics in good faith.

Do you use antivirus software on windows?
I suppose most here use Linux or Apple anyway, but for those of us, who like me, are sometimes forced to use windows on the desktop: do you use Antivirus Software?

Some years long, I did not, just updated everything regulary and never noticed any infection.
Then I used Windows Defender and that seemed fine as well.
But nowdays he caused many performance issues for me. Scanning in infinity loops, or just unstoppable fullscan, when I need all the performance for something else.

So I am looking for alternatives, or just none at all?
With all the free "Antivirus" acting like horrible Ad- and Spyware themself, I am thinking about the option of going "unprotected" again (for which you nowdays even have to flip a registry bit).
And just regulary checking the windows drive from a linux antivrus live DVD, which uses 4 mainstream antivirus software engines (called "Desinfect", a german IT magazin makes them).
That actually makes more sense to me, as then a smart virus can't hide as he is not running then (unless a really sophisticated one).

But yes, that does not give me live-protection.
So do you think live-protection is worth paying for?
Well, it includes some masking instructions that allow algorithms to use vectorization in cases where it's not natively processing vectors. The benefit should be similar to the thread-local control flow stack introduced in the Volta microarchitecture of Nvidia.
I realize that it's likely copy & pasted from somewhere but if you want people to upload potentially security relevant content I'd really like to see a rewrite of that "Your Content" section in the terms of service.

The weirdest part is not that Republicans think universal healthcare is socialism; it's that they think that it is, while also thinking that Medicare is not! Remember "keep the government out of my Medicare"?
The article itself is a bit of a train-wreck, but hopefully it can provide some insight for "open source" people to how they are perceived, if the article is anything to go by.

- You work for free, and should work for free.

- You sharing your programming is equated with sharing whatever non-sense on Flickr and Twitter.

- Collective action and sharing is always positive, even if it erodes privacy and strictly gains commercial 3rd parties, because it's "culture".

In short, your ideals and ideas are being co-opted by large businesses and pundits, and in return you get to be part of "a movement" that might not benefit you.

Please be aware of that when large corporations "warm up" towards open source, or when pundits proclaim that, in effect, you should be more "pragmatic" and go with the flow or miss out on the revolution.

In contrast, Free Software, even if considered crusty and old-fashioned, is about one thing: respecting the freedoms of users.

That single thing can facilitate making great, fun communities; it can create a solid basis to boost commerce and enhance capitalism; it can serve to prop up your libertarian Utopia. It can help with all these things and many more, but it is none of these things.

I suspect that code openly contributed by the NSA will get quite a lot of scrutiny - more than average code contributions. For that reason, if they wanted to subvert something like this, I doubt they'd advertise the source of the contributions like this.

It could use the x87 floating point register stack to store the encryption secret. These registers are not used unless there would be some assembly in the SSH libs that accesses them.
I still think it's problematic, since it is in the vital interest of the NSA, and one of its core missions, to be able to penetrate endpoint security at that level. If they contribute to Coreboot, then that means either that they want to compromise the project or that their "tailored access" group already has enough other ways of comfortably breaking the security of any PC at a level that is low enough (to evade all user-level software, anti-virus vendors, etc.). Both possibilities are bad for international users, even if the second one is obviously more preferable.

It makes no sense for the NSA to assist making PCs secure for non-military use and for use by non-US citizens against their own attacks, because it contradicts their mission statements. The only other (not totally implausible) explanation is that different departments within the NSA are so disconnected from each other that they have started to work against each other.
Ok, we apparently still ship plastic waste to India and Malaysia. Though about 85% is incinerated, at least here in Denmark. Crazy really. Most plastics can't be easily recycled, it actually makes sense just to burn it really.
I'm not overly familiar with search as a field - why is stemming "critical to FTS" rather than a nice enhancement? I would have thought the defining criterion for "full text search" was that it searched the full text of the database?
> [...] that Republicans think universal healthcare is socialism.

Do the Rs really think that, or do they simply say "socialism!" because they've trained their base and some independents to think (socialism = bad)?

Centrailly planned economies generally don't work, and I wouldn't want actual socialism for most things where I live. But if you don't like a particular policy, argue the pros/cons of that policy instead of trying to 'slander' it.

A lot of people in the US want affordable health care, and there are various ways to implement that, but if you label them all as "socialism", then people will end up "wanting" socialism.

Really? Do you distribute your project binaries in different versions compiled in various compilers? If not, why is it necessary a bad thing?
You're actually both right.

In international relations there's two competing notions of nationhood. One notion is being recognized as such by other countries. The other notion is having land, a permanent population, and a monopoly on violence. Let's call these de jure nationhood and de facto nationhood.

Both notions have their faults (full disclosure, I am partial to the latter). De jure nationhood has absurdities like the order of Malta. De jure nationhood is also terribly misaligned with facts on the ground in cases like transnistria and Palestine. De facto nationhood comes with the bitter pill that anyone who can organize enough violence is instantly legitimate, which leads to recognizing some rather unsavory groups.

I believe your argument is that we should never have clear-cut legal boundaries on anything where there isn't a clear-cut, justified reason.

If I understand you right, you also believe there should be no specific age where people can vote, or drink, or become US Senator. Because what's special about being 18, or 21, or 30 years old? Nor age restrictions on when someone can decide to get married.

There should be no progressive income tax, because what's special about each boundary?

There should be a gift tax on all gifts, with no special change at $15,000/year - or no gift tax at all.

Note that the latter two are meant as ways to address your #1. Getting rid of them requires coming up with alternatives ... and I don't see any good alternatives.

I disagree with the basis for #3. I want my government programs to be equitable, fair, just, transparent, predicable, .. and rank 'efficiency' as a far lower importance.

And I feel that asking questions like "should billionaires exist" to be important in understanding why it is that, for example, Gates and other billionaires have an outsized, inappropriate, and anti-democratic effect on US school systems.
