The way you avoid both demand issues and BIOS issues is to purchase 2-3 months after launch.

These chips launched on schedule on 7/7, almost exactly one month ago. If you've been exasperatedly waiting for months it's not AMD's fault.

The "literally no reason" part is okay, what you need to do is adjust "at the moment" to "once we're out of the launch window".
I did Flask and I thought it was so much work to do a login system and other stuff.

There were so many ways of structuring your codes. I find myself constantly rewriting the code to adapt to a new way of organizing codes.

I personally prefer a somewhat opinionated framework.

But I understand that there is a pro and con and a need for a barebone/slim framework versus a featureful framework.

I actually moved from flask & vuejs 2 from last year to phoenix & jquery.

What? "little people" are those who benefit most from a less car-centric city planning.
If you refuse to drive without wearing a seatbelt, you're not making full use of the vehicle. The conservative heuristic "always wear a seatbelt" will protect you in a crash, but it will also necessarily inconvenience you even in usage patterns where you wouldn't crash.

Safety and reliability improvements are very rarely free. It's my opinion, and I assume wahern's, that Linux should be reliable by default, even if this reduces efficiency in the non-failure case.

Pimoroni made this quite easy though if you know a bit of python https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/enviro-plus
In the mid-1990s I hitched across the UK.

Not once, but constantly for 2.5 years.

I was homeless, rough sleeping, and instead of choosing hostels I chose to travel the UK - this was a survival tactic, hostels were not nice or safe places. I would hitch from one city to another, and my sign would simply say "North" or "South".

I had the greatest chance of being picked up at the slip road exiting a service station. So sometimes if I woke in a city I would walk 10-15 miles to get to the first service station on a motorway out of town. This is easy around London or in the midlands, but really hard in the South West.

The people I met... oh wow. It was almost exclusively solo male drivers who picked people up. They were doing long road journeys and wanted company and to stay awake and engaged. To not fall asleep at the wheel.

Your role as a hitcher... to be a graceful, clean, respectful passenger and to bring conversation and to know when to be quiet.

The people though. I once was picked up by one of the Birmingham Six https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birmingham_Six , on another occasion by a man who was dying and using his remaining months talking to people by picking them up hitching. There were saviours who would go out of their way in deep winter to get me somewhere safe. There were others who were themselves a danger and the propositions I received were... out there. I only once felt the need to do a runner at the first opportunity.

Mostly though, people were incredibly kind, considerate, cool.

And universally, everyone that picked me up said that the reason they did so was that they had once hitched and felt a need to continue to offer that kindness now that they had the means to pick someone up and give them a lift.
You can! Read the article, there's a cheeky hack to allow you to overwrite the phones IMAP config via SMS, fully remotely :D
Maybe they have an image incentive to make more noise for iOS bugs than for Google ones but that's about it. Otherwise what they do is actually helping Apple, who patches really quickly.
Note that you can also clean things up without tearing it down entirely. Many cities have retained historical centers in that style without keeping the "slum" bits, and it does makes for more interesting walking around than huge boulevards and avenues.

There's an architectural movement to come back to these more human-sized city designs too: smaller streets, more mixed use, less emphasis on large (and motorised) transportations, incorporation of structural shading and breeze-shaping, ...
Given the track record of improvised solutions in Asia I wonder as a layman if the building engineers gave the green light for this with good conscience.

I mean the mall was clearly built first, with a certain structural integrity in mind. And then an entire village was built on top of it.
Yes and no.

Data diode can be put either ways, with different results:

* case 1, you allow traffic to only go out:

This way, nothing can come inside the system, but the system can export data.
Here basically, confidentiality is of secondary importance, but integrity is crucial.
It is the Biba model.
It can be seen on Command and Control systems for critical industrial installation for example. For example, with power plants C&C system must avoid to be hacked, but exporting to other systems data such as their power output and operational condition is generally required.

* case 2, you allow traffic to only go in:

This way, the system can ingest data from the outside, but nothing goes out.
Here basically, confidentiality is primordial, integrity a bit less.
It's the Bell-LaPadula model.
It can be seen in Military intelligence systems for example. Here you collect pieces of information and you make decisions on them, and all that must be kept confidential.

To summarize:

* One way: you enforce integrity

* The other: you enforce confidentiality

As an ending note, data diodes are generally pretty simple: basically you take a fiber with TX and RX link, and you cut one. There are a few more tricks (UDP only, sending multiple times because you don't have ACKs, static ARP tables, tricking the NIC into thinking it's up without signal), but that's the core of it.
Still great to see some remains of the older Paris here and there, such as le Marais.
Apple should be performing this kind of research themselves on such a high profile target as iOS. If you let a competitor discover stuff like this then you kind of deserved to get "hit".
When averaging it out over 150 years, the USA growth rate is ~2% p.a.

The USA's secret is managing to have stayed stable enough over that period, and having maintained that growth number.

No-one can sustain 8-10% indefinitely, once the "easy" growth (industrialization, infrastructure, education, urbanization) is in the bag.
In India I found that in Bangalore (a city with far better infrastructure than most other), for a lot of intersections the traffic lights are toggle switches that some cop flicks on and off every so often. There is no lock on the switch cabinet.
Right. I guess the Ryzen boost clock debacle is also part of it...
Pick a random webpage with ads, right click, and "inspect element".

You will see the ad is rendered in a sandboxed iframe.

It's true that the ad-network can usually run in the context of the main page, but the ad itself cannot.

The ad network is typically fairly trusted - they are profitable businesses with a lot to lose to lawsuits if they store or leak your password.

It's the ad itself that you shouldn't trust - anyone with $1 can submit an ad. And that's why it's sandboxed.
1/4 coffee grind to 3/4 cold water, stick it in the fridge for 24 hours. Dilute with 1/4 coffee to 3/4 boiling water (it will be less bitter than brewed coffee). Now you just need to find something to boil water that isn't made of plastic.

> I find it utterly asinine because it is not paired with the necessary corollary

Doesn't it self-regulate though ?

If it's not viable to build in a place for a specific use, developers will go to greener fields. It happens in a lot of heavily congested cities. Making whole areas unfit for heavy traffic moved the office building elsewhere, generally in places that where more welcoming to them.
Python is also great for production, especially for tasks like this ;)
Ah, awesome, another Rust book. I'll keep an eye out for it.

Thanks!
"They've been letting the prices creep up much faster than inflation for several years now and they've hit the point where people can't afford the flagship phones anymore"

I think it's because you don't need a flagship. 10 years ago phones were crap (let's be honest) - slow, small etc. You needed to pay a lot for a phone with a decent battery life, large screen etc. Now you don't. It's like 3d graphics cards back in the day. You needed quite an expensive one for games to look good. For years now though you've been able to play pretty much every game with very cheap graphics cards so long as you're happy to turn some of the settings down a little.

With Android, you know you're phones going to get abandoned with 18-24 months so why not get a £250 phone instead of a £800 one?
I feel that the problem is ill-posed: "At what amount of free RAM should we start freeing RAM by killing processes?"

Maybe one should solve the problem: "At what eviction-induced latency should the OOM killer be invoked." Thanks to the infrastructure around latencytop, the latency might be available already.

Of course, the never-ending dilemma of what process to kill is still there.
On the other hand Open Hardware is just starting to get some traction. I hope the librem phone or RISC-V will change the current situation of only proprietary hardware in the future.
> At the same time we finally got a phone that is built with some security in mind (Librem).

If it ever materializes. It's already more than half a year behind schedule and after preordering it close to when it was announced, I'm very skeptical I'll ever receive it.
I have a similar problem also in the UK (next door in Bedford) - That is the problem a lot of proponents of public transport don't want to address.

If you do want to get rich middle class people to use busses - you will have to accept that the services will have to have a lot more investment and increase in cost and be partially rebalanced away from servicing pensioners and to be blunt poorer workers.

The problem is local councils prioritise bus service in order to cater to the urban users who are mostly pensioners "granny farming"
"Literally the only hardware improvement I can think of that might convince me to upgrade before it breaks is a smaller screen, for easier one-handed use."

Most if not all Millennials are in their 30s and are often scapegoated, even though the cohort you're trying to blame are generation Z, which isn't helpful either.
Arduino is lightyears more accessible than PICs a decade ago; it’s never been easier to use a free or OSS tool to design a board and have it mailed to you.

There actually used to be a every Sunday workshop where you made one from scratch in 3 hours (including board fab) with a grab bag of components to populate with — within the past couple years. (That shop closed due to lack of patrons.)

You can’t modify simple electronics as easily — but how many people built their own drones in the 80s? I’d guess RC cars and drones have about the same number of DIY whatever, and that we’re not seeing a fall off (because of difficulty — availability and community are different issues).

The simple truth is most people don’t care and don’t want to manage their stuff all the time: I make my own electronics, but my laptop is still Windows with minimal config. My desktop is parts and Linux — but only because I needed it to mirror what I do at work, as a test bed. The company itself found data centers to be too much fuss, and lifted-and-shifted most of it to the cloud.

Why don’t I bother? Because fighting the laptop constantly to keep FOSS working (and secure!) detracts from my time building my own electronics (or other forms of living life).

If you really care, our failure to create broader technical skill is not technical: it’s social.

We allowed RadioShack to be gutted, we allowed ”hacker spaces” to be priced out of business as cities grew, etc.
Planers require parking to stop on street parking causing congestion.
Not exactly true, this isn't about user-uploaded images. I get it, but optimized JPGs are working, and if it isn't broken, don't fix it. When everyone supports WebP I'll switch to WebP and ditch JPG but I'm not in any hurry and have plenty of other broken things that need to be fixed first.
> Why can they not all agree to all switch journals at once to something managed by committee, similar to what is done in the open source world.

That would mean that committee being staffed by volunteers - and the people that are qualified for that kind of job (scholars) already have enough on their plate.

Elsevier & Co. sell convinience, not scientific articles.
If you take away parking spots you gain room for cycle lanes. You can't build cycle lanes first.
Very valid point. This is the elementary difference between open source (which won) and free software (which lost).
> And their results are contradictory and disappointing so far.

Absolutely not.

Where did we fail? Listening to scientists 50 years ago that had the data already. Changing our infrastructure while we had the time. Signing treaties for 30 years instead of incentivizing sustainable business.

I'm not going to comment on your ad hominem. Like yeah, people from all walks of life being able to participate in politics is called DEMOCRACY, I think you heard of it. It's also entirely offtopic for you to keep going on that.
Just because your a SRE on $180k doesn't mean you are not little people.
Places have poor walkability because parking wastes so much space.
This was quiet interesting to hear the reactions of locals who live in cosmo park. An interesting concept.
A higher layer to the primitives. While still providing options to the lower layers.

For example, having multiple layers to the concurrency primitives. Something like goroutines but allowing the programmer to create native threads.

Also, I like how golang has these neat functions to connect to services as opposed to the way most other languages (like c/python/etc.) do them by creating sockets. Perhaps this would be something that would be part of the standard library and not the language?

This is all coming from an average developer with no experience in creating a language.
It does, because of FOSS dynamics.
All I have to say is: weather ≠ climate. How are you arguing on a subject you have no clue about?

I think it's simply a case of not missing what you don't know.

I got my first 10 Mb/s connection around 2000. At the time I found it to be as fast as I could possibly want. I mean, it's the same speed as the local network at the computer club just a few years prior.

Now I have gigabit (2 Gb/s actually, but I can't be bothered to configure network bonding), and I couldn't imagine going back to anything slower.

You can romanticise the parts of it that was beautiful.

A lot of times people talk about particular aspects of a period, or in general, of objects, not absolutely everything that comes with it.

You don't need to bind every thing to its context entirely.

No these are walk up fares. I volunteered on a Wednesday and was told to report to the Balmoral hotel on Friday not much scope for powergaming.

And time elapsed is a thing here - at the time internally our internal day rate was £300, externally £600 and our peers in the Big 4 consultancies would be north of 1K (but not as good as us)
Sure, but first let's internalize all the externalized costs of cars, for example pollution.
An in my opinion crucial information is missing in the discussion that unfolded here 4 years ago; still this discussions comes up as a top result when searching for "authy telephone number required" and that is why I want to add something for current and future references:
The phone number is only needed to recover access to your encrypted data that is stored on authys servers.

If you're questioning yourself whether authy is trustworthy because they require you to provide a phone number for a 2FA-TOTP-Method that does technically not require it at all(!) and thus could pose a potential security degredation, check the FAQ about account recovery/passwords here: https://support.authy.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001950787-Bac...

Quote:
* The Backups password is never sent nor stored in our servers for your security
* Like the Backups password, the App Protection PIN (and optional biometric data) is never stored in our servers
* Like the Backups password and App Protection PIN, the Master Password is never stored in our servers

the question still is if you trust those promises - but as authy is backed by twilio (thus lots of 2FA-SMS are already processed by them) the chances are good those guys know what they do and do it responsibly
Four air support hull container ships and a detachable square kilometer of panel, that can fold up and floats on pontoons, is where the maths is leading me currently. :)
I think it's the difference between trying to keep a log cabin up and trying to keep a sand castle steady. The sand castle gives so much more anxiety and a fix threatens to break other fixes.
I guess he doesn't think the international ban on commercial whaling that led to the recovery of the humpback whale counts as disturbing free markets. How odd he makes no mention of the 50+ year IWC ban, or perhaps not.

Written by Matt Ridley, who sits out by Rees Mogg at the extreme end of political spectrum. He was famously Chairman of Northern Rock during which time, in 2007, it became the only British bank in a century and a half to have a run on the bank. It had to be nationalised out from under him. He was extensively criticised in the parliamentary investigation into the bank's failure. Yet he keeps on arguing for almost no regulation (on anything).

Also owns the land on which one of the few remaining UK coal mines sits. He still claims climate change will not be damaging, we should carry on using fossil fuels and not seek to decarbonise. I am sure these are entirely unconnected beliefs.
> 2) People will not help making digital security and privacy any better

The biggest majority of Web users do not even realize how this stuff works.
I asked one no technical friend what he thought about Google business model, the answer surprised me: they positioned themselves as intermediary on the Web so that most traffic goes through them so that they could serve ads. That's probably not completely incorrect but what regular paps and moms don't know is that web site creators themselves agreed to this deal with the devil and their soul is now completely gone. When no-one, not even the most valuable or knowledgeable customers complain about the gazillions of tracking scripts on the page, there's no way this could get better. For regular people "Privacy" means a few setting that you could change on some conglomerate web site until they rebuild/reset the page so that you'll have to do this all over again.
It's astonishing how many things were really implemented. Lick would be happy to see this.

The challenges of starting a new YouTube Channel about coding in 2019
About four years ago, I had a dream to become a Software Engineer and work for a big tech company.
I invested so many time on my learning, doing courses on YouTube and other platforms, making new friends and expanding my knowledge.
Today I can say that I have conquered so much more than I expected.
I became a professional Software Engineer and worked for amazing companies, such as ao.com and BBC, which I am very proud of it.
I have worked with such amazing people that always shared their knowledge and had time for me.
It made me realise how lucky I am, but how much I enjoy to help others and also share my experiences.
I am grateful for everything I have learned so far and for such amazing people I meet on my journey.
It all made me believe that now is my time to give it back to this fantastic community.
To be able to accomplish that I have created my youtube channel where I will be posting content every week, doing my best to help as many people as I can, to get into coding and find their first job.
People that share the same dreams that once I had to have a better future and work on this fantastic industry.
So please help me! Subscribe to this channel, it would be very appreciated as YouTube do not support new channels, and monetisation is only a privilege of channels with more than a 1000 subs.
It would help me to have more time on this project and putting more quality content out there.
You can subscribe clicking here => https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmGVWlvMLic

Many thanks,

Why do you suppose that people managing significantly larger sums of money than you have available are not also investing based on this information? If they were, your edge would rapidly drop to zero as all of the better connected and better funded investors buy up the over/under-valued assets.
There may not be actionable advice for someone hiring a software engineer if that person knows nothing about software engineering. However, I would argue that that person is in a bad position no matter what. There is actionable advice for a software engineer here insofar as the general 'shitiness' of software is due to a lack of discipline on the part of the software engineer. Having witnessed inexcusable practices like functions that contain 10000 lines 'don't build shit software' sounds like very much actionable advice to me.
