Duster is hardly optimised for boxiness compared to WagonR, which costs half as much in India, and has to make more usable space from much smaller dimensions.

No, he said "Hence," right at the start of the sentence, as if it was a logical conclusion. It is not.
Kind of late to the game here, but MS could ship actual source code and copying that code would still be copyright infringement. Reverse engineering for inter-operability is legal in many places, but copying implementations is not. Even having seen the code, you would have to reimplement it in a way that worked equivalently, but was different. The OP is claiming that even things like macros have the same implementation and names (i.e. code that is never exposed publicly in any way). Even if you could deduce this from debug symbols (which would be quite tricky, but probably not impossible), you've got to find another way to do that work.

I don't really subscribe to a belief of absolute morality, but in the context of the discussion, I think that no matter how you got access to that code, if you say that you are reverse engineering it, then copying an implementation is not doing what you are saying you are doing (as well as being copyright infringement).
I have not written about it publicly at any length. Much narrower versions targeting specific data models have been used in production and I've licensed bits and pieces to big tech companies. The data structures and algorithms are non-obvious, and the join mechanics that enable arbitrary relationship type traversals on the representation hurts the brain (it really isn't visualizable). It is just an elegant instantiation of adaptive information theoretic embeddings in very high dimensionality spaces, reduced to fast database algorithms. My previous startup was based on related but very early and incomplete computer science, which was written about.

The storage engine is extremely fast but the only unusual capabilities it has are architectural: the ability to continuously, in the background, reshard data (many tens of thousands of times per second per inexpensive server) and shift shards between storage engines. If you think about it, all this really requires from a storage engine is the ability to concurrently create and destroy logical files at an extremely high rate, much higher than a typical file/operating system allows. Some of the internal algorithms are novel but it is still just a storage engine. It is tuned for petabyte storage densities per server -- it was originally designed for exabyte-scale sensor data models.

None of my database work has ever been open sourced AFAIK, though many companies have older designs. The biggest practical hurdle to open sourcing is that it would require many man-months of tedious unpaid work and I have zero desire to do that. It is also a production-grade research project; I currently have no obligation, explicit or implied, to maintain any kind of compatibility if I feel like redesigning some aspect of it. That said, I also want to get away from the current reality that every company wants someone to build their own slight variation of these designs.
Maybe twitch creates an illusion by showing the streamer only a subset of people that is shared among all other groups. This allows everyone to see what the streamer sees and to communicate within their group.
It really shouldn't. It will never be able to accomodate every possible case. There is a reason why stories about drones going around and enforcing the law like a programming language is considered a dystopic setting.
Assuming the FDA is corrupted is one thing, assuming regulatory bodies ACROSS the world are all corrupted at the very same time is just very close to being a ridiculous claim.
Have you considered that your example might be a really good idea? The same idea has been used as a highly effective tourism campaign: https://mashable.com/2016/11/06/cu-in-the-nt/
Bloomberg ran a story [1] about a supply chain attack against apple, amazon, and others. It made big headlines, but evidence never emerged. It is now generally believed that the story was false.

No one has found these chips and shown them, and the likes of apple and amazon have issued very direct denials (that would be very clear securities fraud if they were false). Much more direct than statements by corporations usually are.

There's something very dodgy about this.. At no point in their "history" do they mention that this is the Tagaz Aquila from Russia, and that MPM motors is Mikhail Paramonov: https://en.crimerussia.com/oligarchs/versailles-mansion-of-t...

So he bankrupted his previous car company TagAz, and now he's selling the same car under a new company...
In France, the Mirage is sold as the SpaceStar, and the cheapest 1.2L option is €13,495, which is upwards of $15,000 USD. Motoring in general is very inexpensive in the States, so it's difficult to make meaningful a comparison on price.
Goes on to say how really "happy" a happy country is.
Well, this thing happens frequently when every _websites_ want to throw their "apps" to the customers. But their actual "apps" are out-sourced by cheap MSP somewhere. That explains the lack of security effort.
> i’d argue that putting yet another language in your stack just for generating config files is added unneeded complexity.

Well... I'd argue that when using Python I don't feel the need for a config file language in the first place... it's human friendly enough and I don't have to learn another syntax, use another parser, etc. I had to work on a Symfony project recently and I wish it wasn't sprinkled with all those yaml files.

> I’ve never caught myself thinking “if only there was a nice way to limit myself to a non Turing complete subset of python/Haskell”

Ditto... seems like bloat to me. There may be some use cases I don't know about but these config file languages tend to repel me.

Speak for yourself. As a cyclist I much prefer having segregated facilities on high-traffic roads.
I'm working as the chairman of my hackerspace, https://www.c3d2.de/whois.html, to balance order and chaos in the literal Chaos Computer Club.
This sounds pretty cool but tbh, if I'm willing to try out a beta product with all my images (and the risk of losing them due to some bug or any other risk) and provide feedback, I'd like to have a bigger carrot than just using the product for free in beta only :)
I’m visiting Australia at the moment and the state of internet connectivity in central Melbourne is pretty poor.

Very slow internet at my AirBnBs, generally very poor WiFi availability and speeds in public, the co-working space I’m in (that is otherwise excellent) is a similar speed to my home connection in London.

Above all, latency makes some websites considerably less pleasant to use, and SSH to most places is painful. I know that’s not something the local market can necessarily fix though.
I suspect you're referring to https://kurviger.de/en for motorcycling. This uses Graphhopper's builtin round-trip functionality (it was incorporated by the author of that motorcycling route planner). You can find more about the Graphhopper API here https://docs.graphhopper.com/#operation/getRoute, and it's completely open source at https://github.com/graphhopper/graphhopper

The motorcycling round-trip algorithm is quite crude, it relies on a user to pick a heading and then points N points in a circle on that heading and builds a route between them. It does not take into account any features of the map (e.g. forests, rivers, obstructions, etc). It's sufficient for longer distances though, but struggles on shorter distances.

My project isn't open source yet, but I hope to make it so if/when I finish it!
Methodologies exist only to shepherd delivery - don't make shepherding itself the primary focus of your day-to-day lest you lose sight of the real aim: to deliver projects on time with minimal bugs while minimizing the effects of inevitable bugs on revenue/customer satisfaction.
When learning a skill (for me it’s Brazilian jiu-jitsu and Ido Portal movement) I can get into the flow very quickly and stay deeply concentrated for at least two hours. This concentration speeds up learning, in my experience.

I notice I don’t get distracted easily. For example, when a teacher stands next to me while I’m doing an exercise. I notice him, a thought arises in my head that he is looking at me. However, I’m not attached to that thought and can continue focusing on the drill at hand. I like this feature.

The non-linear nature of learning a skill has become less distracting. When learning isn’t progressing, I notice the thought. Since my internal state is less dependent on emotions, plateaus are less discouraging. It is still discouraging, but much less for me that it used to be.

Also, I think my learning itself goes quicker. My hypothesis is that my mind is getting used to non-standard states of consciousness (through meditation), which increases its “flexibility” and adaptability. Learning a new skills, in a sense of directing the mind into new territory (of yet to be learnt material), seems to go quicker.

The downside is that I cannot do tasks with 50% focus. I’m either in the flow or I’m not doing anything. This starts to apply to almost any daily activity. I’m slowly getting used to it.

Hope this helps.
What Is LibreDrive?
I generally take things which sound to good to be true with a pinch of salt. No exception here.
They don't sell the 160 anymore? It was less than 15 grand in kit!
> If all the people stopped using cars, switched to bicycles, then it's still ALL THE VERY SAME NUMBER of people getting from A to B maybe at the same rate as they were before the switch. This will help with noise and emissions, but... the traffic will be the same.

As someone who bike commutes 10 miles in the US, this couldn't possibly be the case for me.

There is almost never a car impeded by my presence. I spend part of my ride in a bike lane and most of the rest on a bike route through neighborhoods that aren't heavily used for car commuting.

Even when there are cars, they quickly have a chance to pass (and inversely in heavy traffic I filter right through them).
That seems like security through obscurity.

I have other hopes to get IoT more secure. Open source firmware, for starters. Support contracts where you don't buy the hardware but buy a working (and insecure isn't working) device.

The problem with IPv6 is that it is a chicken-egg problem. Those who get CGNAT plus native IPv6 are part of the unfortunate bunch who are not using native IPv4 (and therefore miss out on certain IPv4-only services). Meanwhile, the IPv4-only services are causing issues for CGNAT. The logical conclusion is that everyone who currently offers IPv4-only should (and should've been) focusing on adopting native IPv6 dual stack. The continuous procrastination, out of greed and egocentric thinking, is what caused the current situation in the first place.

My ISP tried to shove CGNAT with native IPv6 through my throat. My modem was unstable. BitTorrent didn't work well anymore. I could not use services over LTE anymore (my LTE provider, actually same provider as my cable, used IPv4-only back then; don't know now). I relied on that to work. So they gave me what I had before: IPv4 only. Why not dual stack first?
I think the value is in checking assumptions - if the analytical approach assumes a normal distribution and then you do MCM and get a vastly different result then it is probably worth checking the assumptions made by the analytical model.
I've seen a few cases of that, and in those instances I resent my country's worker protection laws, OR a company's reluctance to cut off underperformers (which costs severance monies).
The 'bridging' problem is one area where vehicular applications have less of a problem given the fact that the generator is constantly being shaken, especially when used on tractors or other similar equipment (e.g. old-style bone-rattler pickup trucks). A modified diesel engine in which the injectors have been swapped for long-necked spark plugs can run on gengas and has a higher efficiency and relative power output than a petrol engine which is fed with the same fuel. On this type of application the extra bulk for the generator and fuel doesn't matter as much either.
Because that'd be equivalent to computing the convolution explicitly. The whole approach is based on tricking Overlapp-Add to support compactly supported interpolation kernels between representative convolution kernels. Easiest would be bilinear interpolation between between the surrounding representative kernels, which mostly translated to using the bilinear weights before using the fft convolution, and deferring the summation of the interpolation to be fused with the addition done due to overlap-add.
For CPU intensive tasks, performance _is_ close to Ruby, while both Ruby and Elixir are far behind Go. Soft realtime doesn't mean fast, it just means good std deviation on response time and not a lot of missed deadlines. Fortunately as the article points out, there's always Rustler if you need to optimize while still keeping BEAM crash proof.

That being said, I agree that performance for certain IO intensive applications like web servers is very good, way better than Ruby. Subjectively Phoenix feels way, way faster than Rails in development and is much more performant in production.
I am refactoring the report designer from one of my projects, https://apps.shopify.com/export-orders.

The report designer is iimplemented using Datatables.Net library (demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQ-viTQARTk) and I am implementing the same functionality and some more features (column renaming, custom column expressions) using VueJS.
> At the end state will tax electricity same way to keep this wonderful tax income. No way to have cheap fuel, hydrogen, gas, etc will be taxed same way due to political reasons.

But not clean electricity. The gas is taxed for the environmental reasons: it is endangering our planet. I don't know of any government taxing clean electricity.
And the owner of "MPM motors" is not the most trustworthy individual apparently: https://en.crimerussia.com/oligarchs/versailles-mansion-of-t...
My advice would be get a better ISP. I have rock solid IPv6 here in the UK with a /48 and a RIPE record.
It took me a long time to understand two's complement arithmetic for negative numbers in binary. Read several explanations on books and magazines (this was before the internet existed), couldn't understand it. Then one day it clicked. Awesome trick. I went back to some of the explanations that hadn't helped me understand it, and I could clearly see the author didn't understand it themselves. The world is too full of that.
The heritability of fertility makes world population stabilization unlikely
At the end state will tax electricity same way to keep this wonderful tax income.

It's not so much the wonderful tax income, but the necessary acquiring of funds in order to maintain the roads.

This is paid by taxes on fuel. Somebody has to pay for new roads and maintenance, when that string of revenue falls away.
I think Strava Local is curated, but I agree with the 'frankly, bad' part of your comment. For my home city of London it has a few of the major landmark routes, but doesn't have anything near my house, nor does it have any of the less obvious but more fun local routes.

My frustration with Strava is that they have SO much good data, yet they do so little with it.
I am a Software Engineer at Wattcost (https://www.wattcost.com/), which creates a device and platform to read your energy consumption (even with older meters) and act on it. Eventually the platform is supposed to help you save energy in your home, which indirectly helps "fighting" climate change.

That being said, I do not believe that any single person or single company has the power to change things drastically into any direction. It has to be a joint effort of anyone or any organization on that planet. I am not seeing this actually happening (and often even see the opposite), so personally my outlook is rather grim as well.
In my opinion it's usually worse using a new framework or language as you don't know the ins and outs of it. Your first project is going to be a learning experience in that technology. I have seen plenty of Python code that was clearly written by Java developers wanting to try out something new.
Ventilen would still make sense in this setting :)

I am reminded of Thoreau's quote: "There are a thousand hacking at the branches of evil to one who is striking at the root."

The root of the problem is not that we have bots, but that we have normalised lying and deception as part of everyday business. We allow companies to pretend that bots are human beings, and allow call-center employees in third-world countries to pretend (even sometimes though elaborate lying) that they are located in the same country as you. We allow companies to tell outrageous untruths in their advertising - see the Samsung ad which they're currently being hauled over the coals for in Australia.

That's the real problem here, and the one we need to fix on a general level, not by band-aid regulations over whichever dishonesty has managed to irritate enough state representatives.
The accuracy of that headline depends on what problem we're talking about

For the lazy, the doi is 10.1038/s41586-019-1335-8 if you want to add it to your bibliographies. Obviously, don't use the doi for any illegal purposes, such as getting around the paywall.
There are several job boards. I'm trying to figure out how to do it for my own projects.

The most obvious way is to think of an idea that helps fight climate change but also makes money (easier said than done).

Also been considering if there is the potential to gain suppose on Patreon or similar from the community for working on climate action projects like some open-source developers do.
There are two things that are important for a sports car:

1) it should look cool

2) it should be fun to drive

If it delivers on those two points, things like panel gaps and interior materials are irrelevant.
I think a more appropriate translation would be 'friend for one', as it can be read as an offer. »Ven til en« is obviously an unusual way of phrasing it, but replace »ven« with any commodity you can purchase, then it sounds more like an offer (a free one, that is).

That being said, 'friend of one' is definitely an accurate translation as well. And 'friend to one' is just the literal translation. I wonder how they pronounce it, »ven til en« or »ventilen«.
> to get around without a car... within a ten minute drive.

I don't understand.
Can't afford would mean needing insurance, or selling/pawning property. Proper vetting enables you to use the threat of criminal prosecution and civil restitution to indirectly use the customer's remaining property as collateral.
Good on you, but i think chat apps are not the solution.

For physical and mental health, we need real face to face connections, in person and not online.
Young people use many chat apps and even topic based groups and sites, set depression and health problems keep increasing.

The more we are in front of a screen, the harder it is to actually be with others. And this is what we need as humans.
Well, amusing that people thought this was wholly irrelevant. Here's what I was thinking of when I said that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksb3KD6DfSI

Also amusing that there are two confident opposite opinions in response.

This is a big problem in modern society especially for young adults. We're not meant for this. I know it's a bit "Hararish" to look it this way but really: "Yesterday" we were just living in small tribes together and being lonely was hard to imagine. Now you can end up having everyone you call a 'friend' on the other side of some screen and end up totally friendless in your 20's.
Good read, I can relate. I felt the same after leaving Apple.
This would be a great use case for PeerTube, no?
I'm talking about retail / security.
Just a few varied anecdotes from working as a dealer and croupier for a few years:

I once saw 13 be hit 4 times in a row (and once more within my 45 min rotation at the nearby table). Don't think I've personally seen any other 4 number streaks.

A lof of people won a lot of money during the two last ones.

I've only played a few slot games online and visited a real casino as a guest once, where I bought chips for $150 and left with $5400. The goal was losing it all and at the end I was putting $1500 on the table at a time, and dipped below $500 just a few minutes before making the $5400 and leaving.

One of the best nights I had while working was a regular from the poker room coming to my Black Jack table trying to win back the $15k he was down. Had the 'chef' (senior position at the casino floor, poker equivalent would be 'brush') there talking to him since he wasn't doing well. He managed to win it back which was a great relief.
Kind reminds me how un-Interneted Chinese people categorize things:

- Say China did something bad: "That's political and with intention to 'slander' China, so we shouldn't talk about that"

- Supreme leader changed the national constitution so he can basically be a emperor: "Oh that's an internal adjustment of power, and btw we shouldn't talk about that"
> If all the people stopped using cars, switched to bicycles, then it's still ALL THE VERY SAME NUMBER of people getting from A to B maybe at the same rate as they were before the switch. This will help with noise and emissions, but... the traffic will be the same.

Won't the traffic be better with smaller transport (like bike)?
AFAIK that's not enough calories burned to get you into caloric deficit. You need more intensive or longer exercise
I reserve the right to live in a smaller space than what you consider proper, and I do so by choice and not out of need. My 4x3m plus small bathroom is great and easy to maintain.
Rust works pretty well with C, and you could use cbindgen[0] to generate c headers for rust functions marked as extern and it would work when linked together. However, rustls doesn't seems to be providing any such function. Most of its API is rust-based, using stuff that isn't directly available in C (Option, Vec, etc.). So you would have to write at least some rust code that calls the library, and have your C code calls the rust code that you write.

On the flip side, calling C code in rust is pretty easy - you have the entire libc available, and rust-bindgen[1] generate bindings for you, which in my experience works very well. So, you may also consider writing your program in rust… If that's possible.

How do you know it is a bigger problem for old people?
I like that the headline on this one actually gives a number. 1 Trillion! Something like 139 trees per person.

Re: continuous release, you can also replace the term with continuous integration; not so much if you DO release regularly, but if you CAN. Ask questions like, do we have build monitoring on the release branch? Is it green most of the time? Is work integrated into it regularly (multiple times a day)? If we discover a bug, can we just push a fix to master and deploy or do we need to do a hotfix on an older tag? What are the steps to create a new release?

While yes, continuous deployment may not be desirable in a lot of cases, continuous integration is a practice that (IMO) most software should strive for.
