I find it difficult to consider that my experience of seeing is similar to having those two files.

Had we discussed this just four weeks ago, I would have totally agreed with you. And to some extend I still find it hard to believe myself.

I'm more likely to believe that there's an unexplained gap between the signals and the subjective experience.

Now try to tell me more about this gap. What is part of this gap? And what is the evidence for that or the existence of this gap in general? And try hard to avoid using any word with fuzzy or ambiguous meaning like experience or
It would depend on the situation. For a single room system, generally no; for a multi-room system, generally yes if the other rooms are empty or at least relatively less crowded than the one you're in. That is, I wouldn't expect the AC to really remove any CO2; it might redistribute it, though.

Thanks for your reply. I would love to take a break and explore the spiritual side of me, but it would need too much of rearranging my life and it may not be worth it. As such I am scared of drastic change, this would just add to the anxiety. Anything I can do with my current flow of life?

> One would think, for example, that it would make sense to do the "instruction decode" pass ahead of time, to end up with an array of pointers-to-instructions plus literal-values... but the resulting representation of the code is usually much larger in memory, and so less of it will fit in cache (and it'll also fight the VM interpreter itself for cache-lines.) You might gain from your instruction impls not having to trampoline back to the interpreter (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threaded_code, basically), but you'll lose in cache coherence.

As someone currently writing a (subset of an) x86 VM, I feel this pain entirely too much. My subset greatly simplifies things by not using segment registers and getting to (mostly) not have to implement the 16bit version of ModR/M.

The biggest problem with x86 is the sheer number of ways to do addressing within a single opcode using a Mod R/M operand. For instance, all of these lines of assembly can use the same primary opcode:

push eax
push [eax]
push [1000]
push [1000 + eax]
push [0x11 + (eax * 2 + ecx)]
push [0x11223344 + (eax * 8 + ecx)]
push [(eax * 8 + ecx) - 10]

If not for the Mod R/M and SIB operands, x86 would be a static-width instruction set

I'm building an interpreter that goes the way of decoding to build a pipeline (really a "basic block") and then to execute the entire pipeline with minimal branching across execution. I'm less afraid of excessive cache use than the unpredictable indirect branch problem. The hope is that building a pipeline and executing it with a branchless unrolled loop will allow me to avoid that problem, while also greatly simplifying the implementation of each opcode where the actual logic just receives a set of operands it can get or set.

There are a group of people who have good enough academics to get onto a nursing course but not to get onto a medicine course.

It's just a smaller group now than it once was because the requirements for nursing have gone up and the discrimination which prevented women from becoming doctors has all but disappeared. Layer onto that the impact of broader opportunities for women outside healthcare (meaning fewer who are able to are willing to go into nursing) and there's a double impact.
Nothing is abused, nothing is bypassed.

The article makes it sound like IDS/IPS&WAF are intended to do input validation so it fits the applications model of the data.

They are not.

They are intended to harden the whole stack a little bit against yet undiscovered vulnerabilities.

By the same logic, this "article" could claim that it is possible to abuse Pythons strip() function to bypass WAF rules because filtering for the user name "root" will not filter out " root" and many login systems do strip whitespace before processing the input.

This applies to any language. Here on HN I can log in as "founderling" or " founderling" just fine.

If you want to filter out something in WAF, you 1) have to do it right and 2) do not do it for input validation at all.

It has nothing to do with the language if you fail at 1 and or 2.
"In essence, you can only make money if you are doing hardcore R&D. This strongly incentivizes the creation of new capabilities but also disincentivizes publication of CS research.

"You see this in markets like databases, where open source has captured almost the entire market for undifferentiated capabilities, and there is a lucrative high-end market with unique product capabilities that don't exist in open source or CS literature. The trend toward treating CS research as trade secrets, originally started because algorithm patents were impractical to enforce, turned out to be effective at maintaining profitability in high-end software products if open source can't replicate capability."

On iOS, photo write and read access are granted separately, so you can allow an app to only save photos.

Apps can also import photos without any permissions at all by invoking the system photo picker (where the user manually has to pick the photos one by one).
I don’t think today’s classifiers are anywhere sophisticated enough to have a concept of something vs. a picture of something, a type of use–mention distinction, or ceci n’est un pipe if you will. The point was that people think they trained their classifier to recognize leopards, but in actuality it just learned to recognize the leopard coat pattern.
So you can participate in the digital economy, like using (the local equivalent of) Amazon or Spotify.
Sorry, I don't have a link. It was a recipe app, targeting Malay keto recipes. I sold the whole company, including app and IP to diet marketing company, and they haven't maintained it, so the app is down.

Well, I do have small kids who learn languages. But for one thing, you don't come with name brand backing like Pink Fong or Ryan's Toy Reviews, so you'd have to stand out from them. Sites like Cocomelon/ABCKidsTV are posting videos with over a billion views. I guess off the top of my head, a lot of parents direct their kids to YouTube, and then look for apps when they need something more interactive.

Maybe one approach is to pay influencers, though the topic of influencers varies widely.

Another approach is to do what a friend does and work with a major influencer. Here's an example of his app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.astro.didi...

They made a great game, distributed by a major media company, and a smaller YouTube content creator. The game elements weren't the main selling point; the players just wanted a "Didi and Friends" game. But it was a lot of fun for the kids and easy purchase for parents.

For my daughter it was phonics at school (which seems to be quite common nowadays) combined with reading stories to her daily (about 20 minutes or so). Also took her to library and let her read/select her own books. Seems to be reading fine.
I find it difficult to consider that my experience of seeing is similar to having those two files.

Had we discussed this just four weeks ago, I would have totally agreed with you. And to some extend I still find it hard to believe myself.

Now try to tell me more about this gap. What is part of this gap? And what is the evidence for that or the existence of this gap in general? And try to avoid using any word with fuzzy or ambiguous meaning like experience or qualia and don't appeal to the fact that I am also a human and therefore know what you mean.

My own failure to come up with anything I can say about this gap and my failure to find any evidence for the existence of this gap is what made me consider the possibility that the gap does not exist, that it is an illusion my brain tricks me into believing in.

1) Even if the cost of products approaches 0, consumers will still need some kind of income to attain them. UBI could help in that regard, but it's still a far way off.

2) The transition period might not be that pleasant. A lot of people will be left without any means to provide for themselves while the rest of society struggles to adapt.

3) Removing the need for labour will be a major game changer to our society. A lot of people will be left with a feeling of having no purpose and nothing to do. Fostering a culture of creativity to fill people's waken hours sounds like a good thing, but I fear there will be a lot of social unrest if people don't have anything to do.

That seems like an OS daemon specific to the built in webcam.

https://www.cnet.com/how-to/fix-no-connected-camera-error-on...

> When you run a program that uses your Mac's webcam, OS X will launch a background process called VDCAssistant, which manages the connection and control of the camera. While this process should quit when the program stops using the camera, it may persist if an error occurs, and prevent future connections to the camera, either by the same program or by others.
Refusing to install software for video calls is a good policy. Also, having a throwaway workstation for such things (also Skype, which is spyware of the worst kind) is useful too, for when it’s a pre-sales call and security can’t outweigh closing a six+ figure deal.
Selling prepaid visas misses the point. The issue is not that those in poverty in developing nations can't spend their money. The issue is that they can't receive my money. It's more important that I can buy a lot of Libra and hire them, and they can cash out or use it directly.

From the blog: "I wanted to remind everyone that Facebook, through its subsidiary Calibra, is just one of the initial 28 Founding Members that are coming together to form the Libra Association. It’s easy to assume from the headlines that Libra is only associated with Facebook, but that is not the case."

Then why is Facebook the only entity making blog posts about Libra? Except, when you assume the reader is dumb.

Are most Windows apps currently designed with WPF or something else?

I have always looked to things like the Calculator and Notepad as a signal of confidence; I know there’s little reason to rewrite them, but the proof of the pudding would be if Microsoft updated something as “simple” as those applets to their championed UI framework.

I know Visual Studio (and their abandoned Expression Studio) is/was built with WPF, but what’s the score in the “wild”?
Stackless Python allows you to run tasks for a certain number of instructions: https://stackless.readthedocs.io/en/latest/library/stackless...

Unfortunately, the Python VM is impossible to sandbox much further as it is. You have (internal) resource security, but can't limit access to the network, or say a specific file in the filesystem. Mutable globals everywhere.

The https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E_programming_language has capability security, but no resource exhaustion protection.

The only systems were both where integrated were a series of 1980s operating systems (GNOSIS, KEYKOS, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KeyKOS) that were designed to allow secure and accountable multi-user timesharing on mainframes. They are predecessors of the formally verified sel4 operating system.

There has never been a similar system on an OS/Processor independent virtual machine level. For fun, I created this little VM: https://esolangs.org/wiki/RarVM

Facebook is asking corporate interests of different sizes, big and small, to join Libra effort. They will all have equal stake, including the founding company, Facebook. It'll be the biggest, possibly only, corporate altruism experiment in history. I think they have a small chance of succeeding if they are willing to pump in billions of dollars without expecting any return.
If you do positive validation, you probably won't be affected by this.

In other words: check that the id is a string with digits only.

Don't search for invalid characters like ASCII NUL or for clever escapes, because there are too many ways of abuse.

Use ctype_digit() for numerical ids and stop with a validation error if ctype_digit() does not return TRUE.

https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ctype-digit.php

For more complicated cases (like an id with lowercase letters and digits) preg_match() can be used, for example: preg_match('/^[a-z0-9]+$/').

Does innovation in general bother you? Besides, what we're doing isn't a very new idea. We are predominantly inspired by the 1960 book Summerhill by A. S. Neill, and even he was inspired by prior art (This isn't the only inspiration, but it's a good tldr in a way)

For us, those faults are deal breakers, but I understand if they aren't for you or others.

> better than the alternatives (eg waiting until your child is 9 before teaching them to read).

Well again, we didn't exactly teach her, she taught herself with our guidance. She speaks English, Swedish and German, and she's learning French and Spanish. We live in a mono-lingual environment, so it's interesting to me you would think that she is somehow doing poorly. What has she missed out on during the time that she could have been reading? As I said, she already reads as well as her peers.

> Ultimately it’s your own children that your disadvantaging in life.

With all that I wrote originally, and with this added context, I fail to see how she's disadvantaged. In many respects, I think she has it way better than her peers. She has two personal tutors with her that guide her into learning what she wants. Public school does not offer that. Also I find the typo here [1] a tiny bit ironic [2]

> Quackery, mythomany,.. nobody wanted to hear about anything but IEEE standards.

Mostly because there is no good evidence that what is being proposed is better.

This isn't the olden days when it was difficult to demonstrate on a large enough CPU and dataset. Today we have cloud computing. If you create something better, you can demonstrate it by putting it into a numerics application and blow everybody away.

The CFD people are always looking for better solutions. The numerical simulation people are always constrained.

Until you do that, people have a right to blow you off.
