> Access to RAM on a MOS 6502 is about 2-6 cycles, isn't it?

One cycle. Of course, the cycles are a lot slower.

The Cell processor, used in the PlayStation 3, provided something like that. What happened in practice was that programmers trying to get code working soon enough to be useful, just ended up leaving most of the theoretical performance on the table, which is why the next generation of consoles scrapped the idea in favor of a conventional x64 CPU.
While others will be sarcastic (perhaps rightfully so), I think it's fair to actually point this out. Bethesda clearly doesn't do a lot of checks. Consider some of their Fallout 76 gaffes - including have no public test server.

One does not launch an online game with an expected massive audience and just "forget" that step (which has hurt them several times already) unless utterly lack any processes and any culture that would have caught it.

Now, I know Bethesda is multiple studios and I know nothing about their operations beyond that, but when the reputation is of a company that delivers great story in notoriously buggy products, and trends don't seem to be improving, that says SOMETHING about priorities, right?
Wow. Never heard of a non-government agency using them.

Pretty clear sign of a messed up company culture.
> Farmers engineer their fields to drain excess rain water. That is part of the reason major floods happen along rivers more often than they used to.

Not everywhere. Western Kansas has water conservation districts with terraces plowed into fields. One of the reasons that reservoirs and ponds were low for so long.

This year, they are all full, due to the massive rainfall we've had.

A lawyer might offer a free initial consultation, or there are free legal clinics, such as around law schools. From there, if it turns out that a person needs representation, the lawyer should point the person to options. Can also call the local Bar Association.

Also, needing the money can mean many things. You might need a well-paying job, but if your child is sick, you will find a way to get them to a doctor, not decide that a doctor isn't in your budget. There are credit cards, payment plans, budget/lifestyle changes, things that can be sold, various social safety nets.

I suspect the original commenter will be fine, if they get the right advice from a lawyer, immediately. I can think of a bunch of plausible scenarios of this (including that there's nothing illegal, or that the commenter is purely a whistleblower), but the only scenario that matters is the actual one, which will be guided by the lawyer's advice, which will be based on the lawyer's much better understanding of the situation.

> Although it is not a silver bullet, it certainly has its applications, especially if the person being interviewed believes it works.

The whole premise of a lie-detector test is that they are marketed to end user and the public at large as being both accurate and "scientific." That they yield results better than chance isn't particularly relevant: they are not what the sellers and users of them claim they are. The conclusions drawn from the readings of the machines are only loosely based on anything scientific and depend heavily on the interviewer's own personal biases. Yet they determine the fate of people's lives all the time.
Looking at the text of the fine, you can't charge money to teach people things ("offer education" in their parlence) in a physical location without state approval.

Could that be any more broad? Education is often just verbal and written communication between people. Seems like a first amendment violation.

It's a scammy, for-profit, private school that charges $30k+ for online classes.

Edit: 20k up front, versus 30k if taken out of your salary over 2 years. That's around 20% interest. They mention that payments are 17% of your income, but this is calculated pre-tax and paid after taxes.
It is pretty easy to run homebrew on older Switches now.
My guess would be. Some sys admin did something illegal (some sort of fraud or something). So management wanted changes to prevent that in the future. And the cover your ass move was "we'll use polygraphs on new people!".
"Although functions may have multiple type parameters, they may only have a single contract."

Well, of course people aren't going to tell you they'd vote for Politician B, because that makes them look like jerks. But subconsciously, a lot of people do agree with Politician B. If you have a job in Palo Alto, do you genuinely want "Cletus the Slack-Jawed Yokel" to be able to move in next door? Have you seriously considered what sort of problems that would have on you and your fellow workers who want to get to sleep at a reasonable hour so you can be productive at work, when Cletus wants to shoot off fireworks all night?
Many people can believe their own lies which I guess will likely complicate any physiological pattern they try to correlate with a lie.
Such a strange way to be a little condescending but also not.
Presumably he's referring to the phenomena where whenever any new movement or organization poses a threat to the established order, the established powers will co-opt, buy off, undermine, or otherwise eliminate the leaders of the new movement, cutting off the threat at its source.

Multiple systems within the modern world work like this. Tech startup acquisitions are a way for established mega-corps to eliminate rising competition by paying a billion or so to the founders, key employees, and investors of them. Democracy is a way to encourage would-be revolutionaries to instead run for office and become part of the governing political establishment rather than overthrowing it. College scholarships are a way to take intelligent, driven kids from the lower classes and provide them with an entry point into the upper classes, so that they don't serve as a nucleus for class struggle in the future.

We used to have institutions that were significantly less robust to these threats, eg. a hereditary monarchy has no defense for an incompetent king faced by able revolutionaries. However, over time all of these non-resilient institutions have been replaced by more resilient ones with escape valves to embrace those who would overthrow them.

The only way to achieve meaningful social change is to do something so insane that all the powers that be laugh at you, eg. create a website for college kids to throw virtual sheep at each other or make millions of CPUs compete to solve useless math problems and call it a currency.
I don't think so. The US has used drones to bomb a lot of people without having to risk their own personnel and reduces the backlash from its own public.

Unpopular opinion, but this whole career choice of "YouTube content creator" seems like a frightful gamble in the first place. You've intrinsically tied yourself into a particular company's product. I guess I don't see YouTube's website as a public space and I don't see how anyone is "entitled" to monetization.

But to be more sympathetic, in this case it just sounds like YouTube should have done most of its automated content scans before posting the video in the first place.
I'd go even a step further: Since they open-sourced all their work, maybe other vendors can pick up / fork where they left off and we may actually have more than one Linux phone in the future!

Two years ago that seemed like wishful thinking to me, but I am very excited about how far Purism got in an even shorter timespan.

Suggestion: on the home page, tell me specifically what the extension does. For example, does it augment GDPR popups with additional info? Record the terms of the ones that I agree to? Simplify the process of declining optional choices?

At least on a mobile device, I read the whole home page and still didn’t know what would be different if I installed it.

If the behavior is complicated to describe, show me a 20-30 second screencast of what I see with the extension.

Hope this helps!

I was not able to find concrete sources but I think that has more to do with the expensive pricing of iPhones and Apple's former image as a somewhat invasive and consumerist company. I remember there being a decent amount of distrust against their vendor-lock-in techniques.

Overall, I would say consumers' privacy-sensitivity in Europe expresses itself largely in the increased usage of Telegram, Tor, Firefox, and Linux compared to the US.
Eh, Iran can't afford a war with the United States without a LOT of assistance from other countries. Iran's entire GDP is 58.6% of the proposed DoD budget for 2020.

In fact, Iran's military budget is less than NASA's budget (19.6 v 21.5 billion). For that matter if we look at 1.3 million people active duty military in the United States, and assume an E1 base salary of 18,384 a year that's more than Iran's entire military budget.
Diamonds have had their supply artificially restricted for decades, inflating their prices. That, combined with the ethical dilemmas (blood diamonds, etc.) associated with the stones, it doesn't make sense to me to get them. They don't even look prettier than an emerald or sapphire either, there's just too much hype.
Often used to hear the same accusations when adsense was a bigger thing. Accounts with expected big payouts would always get banned a few days before payout. They would accept all traffic you send them for the month, then just before paying out, banned.

Lowering emissions is just a side-effect that might apply to any individual shipment but could easily be undone by the increased number of shipments enabled by lowering costs. The calculations that they haven't done yet really ought to have been done before making any environmental or economic claims, including accounting for the wisdom of replacing biodegradable and renewable paper products with another disposable application for a non-renewable resource.

NA has designed its cities to require a car and has not paid any thought to how this isolates and erodes the quality of life of the elderly once they cannot legally drive due to health reasons. Whoops.

| I'm betting a pinky that we'll all be happier doing "more" simple physical things.

This factors so heavily into my worldview right now; that our society is broken in some very strange ways. A lot of people will admonish you about "romanticizing the past", but I truly feel that maybe if people had a little more real, hard labor in their lives, everyone would be happier, healthier, and humbler. I'm reminded of the Calvin and Hobbes trope about "building character".
Yes. Browser have been making partial attempts to resist this, but it's an intractable problem in general -- You can't interact with a website without leaking information about yourself. Using a trusted proxy that serves many people can help.
1) As I said, it was not just JS in this situation at the time, it also applied to other major registries like PyPi. So your point does not reinforce the original attack on JS developers. Congrats to Maven for getting this right.

2) Namespaces were added later. It wasn't "a decision to make them optional". Also check out for the discussion here as to how namespaces don't solve this issue, this point is largely moot.

3) I'm not the person blanket attacking a community. Or making unlikely assertions that "nobody" in the Java world installs direct from the internet.

4) Detail the exploit, otherwise this is FUD.
I would like to see how the numbers stack up to other countries that have a better work life balance.

Here's my hypothesis - the work life "balance" in the U.S. is incredibly messed up - like real bad.

The assumption most people make is "Let's work real hard while we are young so we have all the money we need when we are older. We will have fun then".

So right out of college, with six figures in debt, people are working 40+ hours/week (typically 60+ hours/week), working weekends without blinking an eye.

Everyone's doing it, it's the norm, so what's wrong with doing what everyone is doing.

No one has time to make meaningful relationships.

Most people spend less than 3 years at a job, so what's the point anyways. You can't get a good salary hike without quitting your existing and joining a new company.

That model bleeds into one's personal life as well - people are so busy working hard that they miss the opportunities to build a meaningful relationship with their spouse and children.

Guilt sets in so the spouse and children get showered with expensive gifts and vacations but they have nothing much to talk about during those vacations either so they spend most of their time visiting random places, taking tons of photos, posting them on social and handling the barrage of comments they get for those photos.

The emptiness does not resolve though - and when it gets intolerable the spouses file for divorce.

Maybe it will work out with someone else.

Once they retire - they have two big problems:

1. yes, they do have money, but don't know what to do with it

2. they also don't know what to do with the free hours they now have available!

As a result, they hand over their money to fund managers who proceed to loose all or most of that money because they are sure they can beat the market.

In the meantime, they have been so frigging busy most of their adult life with the one thing they did for their employers that they did not develop social skills (outside the fake "professional" facade) or general skills - and everyone's so fake that it gets down under your skin because deep inside you can feel the fakeness so you hesitate to make more social ties.

With the money depleted and being bored out of their minds, what's the next step?

It's easy to blame everyone else for this, but the reality is the time is past for deep introspection.
We don’t know how often Guns save lives.

It’s false to say it’s extremely rare.

Partly this is because there is little reporting and data collection that can capture situations where a gun is presented but not fired, but also because of the deterrent effect.

Just to add some contrast to the mostly negative comments here (which have merit), this is interesting to me, not because it aims to hide the past, but because it makes time a first-class concept in the software development model, which most programming styles fail to do (e.g. most RDBMS frameworks add migrations on as an afterthought). I like this, and hope something like it catches on.

The problems with this approach seem solvable to me, albeit with more experimental magic that could explode:

- The resulting big ball of mud (and subsequent performance problems of a long pipeline of relations) could be compiled away, resulting in a single artifact. That is, you'd develop in append-only style, but when you "commit" your release, you'd end up with a single, optimized artifact for deployment, which would also be readable. This seems really nice to me, since your changes, while being based on the behavior of the system, would create a diff in the implementation of the system, potentially reaching way back into upstream events (in the example, the behaviors that block hot water and substitute cold water would just completely eliminate the first pane and simplify to adding cold water). This would let you see your changes from multiple perspectives. This approach also seems really friendly to fuzz-testing, which would give you a third look into the behavior of the system, and you could write tests based on the final state of the system after a number of given events.

- Migrating data structures actually seems easier to me for an event sourced approach, since you'd just re-project your domain models based on the new flow of events. b-threads would allow you to re-compile your event stream just like you re-compiled the source artifact (having parameterized events remains a problem, since your historical data could end up being incomplete and invalid based on new policy, you'd have to adopt a permissive schema to keep stuff that validation would otherwise reject).

I'll agree that b-trees don't really solve anything, but they do bring up some interesting questions that I think are worth asking. Datomic and Darklang I think are much more practical, and seem to dabble in the same sort of areas.
Ok, but it's not easy, just as the OP said, and it's extremely risky. If you forget to turn off your wifi, that's a perma-ban from all Nintendo online services.

It is an extremely locked down platform. Nintendo does not want you sideloading stuff onto it. Your OP didn't say it's impossible, they said it's hard, and they said it's locked down. Both things are true.

Nintendo is infamous for battling side-loading harder than anybody else. This has been a battle for ages, one I've been following since at least the DSPhat. And look through their history - a big reason they were so successful in the second resurgence of gaming (after the failure of the Atari era) is possibly because of how locked-down their platform was, how stringent their requirements were when it came to games. Game developers hated it because Nintendo would go so far as to control how many cartridges could be on a given store's shelves (stores hated it too, because money was being left on the table every time they sold out, which was almost always).

Long story short, just cause hackers keep winning the fight against Nintendo, doesn't mean their platforms aren't locked down.

> I know it's hard for you to imagine, but perhaps the JavaScript ecosystem has some good things about it.

There is good in very ecosystem. But a simple keyword "node_modules" on twitter should probably convince you that the good of JS is not in its package system.

To be fair, even the NodeJS author agree on that.

Modularity does not mean "split your code at the atomic level".

We purchased a lab grown/man-made diamond on purpose. Even "non-conflict" diamonds are mined in immoral ways. And while in theory it is great to bring outside money into some of the poorest areas of the world, the work conditions and atrocities cannot be ignored[0][1][2].

Ideally people should move beyond diamonds entirely. There's plenty of precious stones. But in the meantime lab grown diamonds are the most moral way to buy a diamond.

The US and USSR both invaded many countries and executed many hundreds of thousands of people during the Cold War, although in general the USSR had a somewhat poorer human rights record, even in countries they invaded.

But I wasn't talking about what the US was during the Cold War. I was talking about new US policies. The invasion of Hungary was in 1956, 39 years after the Russian Revolution. What do you think the US will be doing 39 years after, to take a convenient date, November 2016? That would be 2055. Do you really doubt that they will hesitate to commit genocide after two generations of propaganda, censorship, and repression designed to Make America Great Again?

If someone expressed a concern in 1917 or 1920 that the Communists had become what the czarist autocracy was, would you think it reasonable to respond with a catalogue of czarist crimes that the Communists had not yet had time to match?
