Construction of parking preceding the worsening of traffic is not the same as parking construction causing traffic congestion. Adding more servers behind a load balancer will also precede congestion on your network. Because you've increased your capacity to service additional throughput, but did not increase your network link to handle that higher throughput. So at some point, it'll start thrashing.

Same with parking. You build parking in areas where you anticipate increased demand or already have unmet demand. By building parking, you increase your capacity to meet that demand.

If you have unmet demand (i.e. not enough spaces for the volume of vehicles that wish to park in an area), you're limiting the economic throughput of that area. Yes, you're reducing traffic congestion in the process, but at a very real economic cost for those whom were being patronized by that now-gone traffic.

Same with anticipating new demand. If you're building in an area, you want to be sure the area has enough parking capacity to absorb the intended volume of people traffic your building will have. If you're building a new skyscraper or mall or big box store, that's likely not true. So you incorporate parking into your project. Once your building (and parking) come online, you'll start attracting a higher volume of individuals to an area. Which, except for the most underutilized or mature transportation networks, will have a corresponding impact on congestion due to the greater throughput of individuals to the area.

If you have mature public transportation, then your transportation network likely has the bandwidth to absorb this throughput increase with a lesser impact on congestion than if you're in an area with immature public transportation options. But mature public transportation tends to be very expensive to build and maintain. Which is only likely to happen after growing to the point of having heavy enough congestion to make such expensive and regionally disruptive changes both politically palatable and economically feasible.

I do not envy urban and transportation planners.
I rarely see the concept of "supply and demand" used properly.

In introductory economics, it's just two lines crossing somewhere. In reality though, companies still have to make a buck, so there is a definite limit on how much a company can pay a "security professional" and still be profitable.

And worse, if we are talking about a labor shortage across an industry or country, price doesn't really come into it at all. Price is only a competitive factor, it doesn't create or destroy individual developers. If one employer "scoops" an employee for a higher price, the shortage moves to where he just left.

Sucking in talent from other industries or countries also has its limits. And on top of all of that there seems to be some anti-competitive effects preventing wage-wars.
Better call Jason Scott. :(
Unmet demand is a thing, though.

Why are your incentives (as a builder) always closely aligned with the city?

Consider Japan, which has building restrictions to avoid eternal shadows. Building height is a function of the setback from the street.

A buyer may well want a taller building, and a builder might well be happy to provide it, when the city is dead set against it.

What is the mechanism by which "the market" balances out the desire by the megarich to live in tall towers in NYC, with the desire by those who use Central Park to not be in shadows more?
Most cybersecurity threats are "simple" crime, rather than government action, and even the latter is often quite "commercial".

If there is enough law enforcement and enough self-protections by civilians (companies), criminals should get demotivated and the overall level of activity should die down, just like "real" crime. We're far from that though.

Ha! Thanks. The video (if you're referring to the one on the web site) is an attempt to give the viewer a modicum of the feeling you get with a ride in the boat. The FAQ on the web site, and the specifications listed there, address the questions you're posing.
Yes it is. Companies set salary ranges based on cost of labor in given markets. They do this by grouping job codes into job families. The job families are what's benchmarked. It's entirely possible for there to be a broad range of job codes and business titles (or even one job code & multiple business titles) with the same benchmark. Because CoL benchmarking only works if companies share labor data with each other, they typically have no problem sharing this information to clearinghouses that provide this analysis service for pay. It also means the benchmarking tends to be fairly accurate.
DigitalFoundry had an interesting take on frame rate/frame time performance on Intel/AMD. If you look at the graph you can see Ryzen dip down more for a few times when there's more computation or memory throughput needed.

MoviePass was purely additive to theater chains. It increased demand for tickets, it marketed itself, and most importantly, the theaters GOT PAID for every MP admission.

In contrast, A-List is mostly cannibalistic. Via self-selection, the most common subscribers are people who were most likely to actually purchase multiple AMC movie tickets each month, that now pay less overall. A-List members take up seats in sold-out, opening-weekend showings (including higher-priced IMAX and 3D) that could otherwise be sold individually. And AMC has to market and administer the program, which also costs money.

Different dialects of Chinese you mean, and mandarin works well enough in most places as China also has a lot of transplants. You could love and work in Chengdu without without speaking sichuanese, for example.

In India, the unifying language is English, though it isn’t as widespread in India as mandarin is in China.
Well, considering the boom of streaming services across young generation, that's a free attack.

Other reformulated: People change interests. Unfortunately Apple is taking the cake of the most desirable gadgets manufacturer and of course Linux never got that traction (how many years have we read about 'This is the year of Linux Desktop'?).
So exactly what are you saying different than what I said? AMC couldn’t “decide on their own” without getting the studios to agree with the rate. The studios have all sorts of leverage.

The author is equating "capitalism" with "free market" with "Western values". These are different and for the most part, unrelated concepts.
The article isn't really making a prediction (though the headline spins it as if it might). It's pointing out a pretty obvious and easily understood conflict of interest in the way the bond rating market works. When rating packaged debt, the rating companies are not being "hired" by the end investor who will bear the risk, but by a middle-man firm who are creating the security and trying to unload it. So the rating firm only gets hired if the packager thinks they'll rate the security highly.

That's a real problem, and needs to be solved. It's not by itself a trigger for a financial crisis, though it's not hard to imagine it becoming one.
Many years ago, I was a software architect at an online travel company. Marketing kept asking me to approve third-party hosted tracking scripts walking the DOM looking for tracking tags at every step on our purchase path. I objected on the billing page, simply because I couldn't guarantee the safety of credit card numbers and customer data, but said it would be okay if we reviewed and hosted their js statically, but the third parties always refused.

Perhaps I overreacted, because at the time, the e-commerce industry didn't seem to care about the risk. Do they now?

I hope OWASP/PCI/GDPR have since developed opinions about third party hosted js on sensitive pages.

Your own link says AMC chose that price point and asks whether studios will go along. There was no negotiation.
> Everybody seems to gloss over single-threaded performance. AMD is trading cores for clock rate.

No they aren't and no they didn't.

Obviously this review of the ultra high end is not focused on single thread performance because that'd be insane. But in segments where it does matter, like consumer, it was not glossed over at all.

And if you look at the comparison table AMD didn't really trade cores for clocks. Both the Epyc and the Xeons are all in that mid 2ghz base frequency range.

> But Intel still has superior design skills when it comes to power consumption and clock rates.

Except no not really. Clock rate yes, but AMD has an IPC advantage now so it's not entirely clear cut. And you only get that clock rate advantage on the consumer chips anyway.

Power consumption is not at all in Intel's favor, either.
I don't think you're understanding the point clairity was making..

Trump generally uses Twitter to fire up his base and give the other side something to stew over.

It's pretty well documented most of the garbage he spews on there has little basis in reality. But... Want to slip in an extra 500 mil in funding for planned parenthood or fund a new surveillance program without raising eyebrows? Simply make a xenophobic comment or say something vague enough that the press spend the next week making fools of themselves while his base just can't get enough napkins to clean themselves up..

Obama got that trick down too, just send the press release on Friday at about 8pm. By the time Monday rolls around, nobody cares.

The tactic has worked out really well for trump as well. He's actually been pretty milquetoast, even moderately more progressive in comparison with other similar democrats such as Bill Clinton or JFK policy wise.

He's also done a pretty good number on dismantling What's left of the tea party conservatives or republicans who espouse the ideas of limiting and reducing government, Not just reducing taxes without reducing govt.

He's essentially transforming the Republican party into the Democrat party of the 80's. All this because people love their narratives, orange man bad or Cheeto Jesus saves
Cameras are magic upgrade desire devices: no matter how good my camera is, my average snapshot will always be worse than the carefully selected best of the best of others. This is never a fair competition, it's hardly every the camera's fault, but it's where blame will fall nonetheless. Cameras will never be good enough.

But are right of course, even cameras won't save the two year upgrade cycle. There will be an even more improved camera next year, just hold out a bit longer. Repeat until the old phone is actually broken. Everybody wins (long term even phone mallets will need a livable planet)

This quote is particularly biting:

"It became clearer than ever to me that while Linux and FOSS had won the battle over the tech giants a decade before, new ones had taken their place in the meantime, and we were letting them win."

It's true. We won it all, but we somehow still lost, and that's a difficult and sad thing to realize. Even though FOSS ate the world, we didn't win software freedom, we just enabled a bunch of new tech giants to put us into consumer roles with little to no freedom once again.
Maybe you should add it to the wiki discussion page?
>If I hire a normal security consultant, and she finds an issue in my product that I don't agree is a real vulnerability, it's absolutely not fine for her to go write a public article about it.

The difference is that you pay her either way. HackerOne doesn't. If HackerOne wants the advantages of paid employees then they need to pay for employees and not mask it as a bug bounty program.

EDIT: Per Betelgeuse90 comment below, my characterization of the situation was incorrect. Apple's behavior is anti-competitive. I am leaving my original comment here for posterity.

Original comment:

I love jumping on the apple hate train as much as the next person, but this is not a valid reason to do so.

Depending on the aftermarket battery, those reported values could be completely wrong / misleading to the user. If you are looking for proof, just buy a random battery off amazon for your computer and tell me how accurate the current reported charge is.

Plus, I would like to know if a used device I buy has a non-OEM battery. As long as it stays in that settings screen and doesn't turn into a consistent annoying pop-up (or doesn't stop the user from upgrading, as was the case with the home button debacle of days passed) I don't think this deserves the outrage.

Also, the title is a bit misleading. Nothing is being locked, the device functions as it should. An ideal solution would be that apple allows third party battery manufacturers to go through a certification process so apple could ensure quality control. Fat chance in you-know-what apple would ever do that.

Yet another video about static coefficient of friction on tires that aren’t slipping. Electric cars are more easily able to keep their tires in this maximum static coefficient of friction range, maximizing acceleration.
This might also be useful to counter the sometimes line of complaint that Google only runs Project Zero to make their competitors look bad.

While they found some exploitable bugs on the iPhone here, they also found (and reported) that quite a few systems did not seem currently exploitable. It seems clear this is not a hit job, at least to me.

Why can't the process itself decide how to handle what should be a null pointer return from malloc or mmap et al?

In fact, firefox' and chromes example is the bane of my existence. The recovery feature itself takes a good amount of space. However efficient it may be, it's no use for private sessions. I'm aware of tab suspender add ons but never tried it. You can't tell me to clean up the ship and instead you burn it down and let it sink in the ocean? Is it my messy browsing (400 tabs can grow to 8gb quickly and it should always remain snappy, too, no eager unloading) or is that just symptomatic of a let it crash darwinism? It is indeed just as impossible for me to memorize all the pages, 90% wikipedia articles and related content, nothing important I'm sure. But it is utterly ridiculous that a gif which rendered would take hundreds of megabytes is a surefire way to crash the session that had been skimming the edge of 200 mb free resident memory left for weeks. I had resorted to polling 'free' frequently for display in a taskbar plugin. But sometimes over night something would hog memory and not free it, either a systems cron-job, an aberrant javascript (though no-script was rarely "temporarily" disabled) or a memory leak (same thing?).

Of course a browser with leaks could not be expected to handle oom gracefully.
But then things are more expensive.

For those who cannot afford, expensive things might as well not exist.

> how they managed to fall so low

I'm amazed that in so many English discussions about China's fall since the 17th century, there are absolutely zero mentions of the Manchus. On the other hand, read any Chinese discussion on it and you'll always see the Manchu domination popping up as a reason if not one of the main causes.

The Manchus took advantage of internal strife within the Ming dynasty during the 17th century and conquered China after the last Ming emperor killed himself when rebels surrounded the palace and a Ming general let them through the Great Wall.

The problem with the Manchus is that they were semi agrarian/semi nomadic and had very little desire for technological progress. Unlike the Han Chinese who always had to frequently rely on technology to overcome the nomads on horseback from the North, the Manchus only believed in horseback and arrows. In fact the late Ming had more natively produced cannons than the Qing dynasty had during the opium wars hundreds years after. Even the western expansion wars conducted by the Qing dynasty early on had gunpowder teams that were only staffed by the Han Chinese because the Manchus initially looked down on guns and cannons.

Lastly the administration was sclerotic because a minority group of 1% was supreme over the other 99%. The Manchus/Mongols/Tibetans owned most of the land in China during the Qing dynasty even though they were a tiny minority. The Manchu/Mongol/Tibetan officials were also of higher status than the Han Chinese. During imperial court, the Qing dynasty had two sessions. After the first one, the Han Chinese had to leave because they were not trusted. In fact up until the late Qing dynasty when the Qing dynasty was ravaged by foreign powers, senior court officials even mentioned to give China to its friends (Europeans/Japanese) rather than give it back to their slaves (the Han Chinese).

This is not to say the Manchus were the only reason for China's downfall (in fact the Ming had started to stagnate a little), but they were absolutely a very large part of it. What many non-Chinese think about Chinese today are actually from the Manchus. The Qipao, the pigtail (Manchu Queue), etc.
Slightly off-topic, but I can not recommend Khan Academy highly enough. Between the directed learning and the helpful videos, I am working to improve my kids understanding of maths and usually don't lose my temper. Prior to that, it was a frustrating exercise for everyone involved.
I worked in Boston in the 90s. A couple of coworkers would use a week’s vacation time to just hitchhike around New England. They had a cabin in Vermont, sometimes they made it to the cabin, sometimes they went to other places. They always got picked up and were usually given lodging. But if they slept in a park they were happy too. They loved doing it.
And plus the occasional Patreon douchbaggery...

I bought a bunch of wireless temperature/humidity sensors from AliExpress - they broadcast their readings once a minute via a small 433Mhz radio-transmitter.

Completely standalone, no WiFi, or other concerns. And because they're battery powered I think they're safe enough in the sauna!

From there I can get the readings via a USB-attached SDR dongle, and also sniff the radio-transmissions via a WiFi connected ESP8266 device with a radio-receiver.
