In my opinion, toxic masculinity is a political term, not a solidly scientific one. Whatever the case, the nomenclature definitely does not fit the bill of abject observation associated with science. While the term isn't synonymous with misandry, the very notion contains misandric elements and value judgement. Harm is in the eye of the beholder, especially when it comes to inculturation and socialisation.

It is my firm hope that the public debate can move beyond firmly entrenching further into the male-female dichotomy and start to see all human behaviour as part of a spectrum, where gender norms are clearly understood to be a statistical tendency but not a rule. "Toxic masculinity" does nothing to further that goal.

Try googling "root M89 tablet".

The first three result lead you to fake android blog telling you how you can easily root every chinese android device and specifically the M89 tablet...

The real authoritative result (xda-developers) only appears in the fourth position, under sight. It will tell you if you follow the instruction given in the fake blog post from the 2 or 3 first results, you will brick your tablet.

In a similar way the word "cbd" (for cannabidiol) has been hijacked by dubious commercial compagnies through fake blog posts filling pages after pages of google results telling you how great cbd is for the treatment of every disease on earth... But there is no trace of an actual study in these results. You will have to go with the less popular word "cannabidiol" to start to see some serious articles about it.

Google results can be hijacked and Google do little about it. May be because the ads shown in these fake blog posts are from google ads network ? I don't know...

But google result have clearly deteriorated these last years and the authoritative figure of the companie is not anymore what it was in the past.

Yes, the PICs don't have a register file at all. They also have quite a simple instruction set, again providing gate savings, but then the size of program ROM may be a bit larger as a result.

The ALU can be a reasonable chunk of the processor size, and an 8-bit ALU is going to be much smaller than a RISCV ALU. Although I read somewhere that some of the Z80s, although an 8-bit processor, had a 4-bit ALU, and also I read somewhere that the 32-bit NIOS processor has a 16-bit ALU. But whether that's true or not ...

I designed a size optimised 16-bit MSP430 clone for small size low cost machxo3 FPGAs that used an 8-bit ALU. It a good way of keeping the number of LUTs down when optimising for size over speed.

For something like the low cost ice40 FPGAs, a PIC would probably be a very good match for those too compared to RISCV, because ice40 doesn't have distributed memory, which is what you'd like for register files (otherwise I expect one of the block RAMs would be used for the register file, and ideally you wouldn't want that to happen).
Yes. The quotes didn't have any indication of a full theory.
However, I find it difficult to believe that they reached so many accurate conclusions without a proper base theory.
yep, that's correct. Me and my fiancée are both text-books introverts, but I'm not shy at all, have no fear of public speaking etc. while she is the opposite.

But for both of us, even having a drink after work with people is super exhausting and we just want to go home and relax, while an extrovert would be depressed staying alone and needs to recharge by having fun with people.

So do the politicians in power only give out media licenses to news sources that feed from those "Anonymous Sources" that support their agenda? The problem is not who is allowed to report, it's that the mainstream news has started citing anonymous sources with ridiculous frequency and the credibility of those sources is never called into question because nobody knows who they are. When those anonymous sources turn out to be wrong, nobody cares and nobody's reputation is damaged for reporting totally made up stuff that's likely someone with an axe to grind's propaganda.

It's certainly intended to be modern, but the implementation is very different from how people imagine it to be.

The "social credit system" is far from being automated; all current pilot projects involve officials leaving remarks on someone's file. The only novelty is that the file is digital and the remark may have a point value assigned.

Every time a new issue blows up on social media, the "ubiquitous online monitoring" (read: thousands of people whose job it is to remove objectionable content) takes days to clean up the outraged comments posted in a few hours.

One thing I've always wondered is why is it so hard to make a self-flying helicopter? Helicopters already exist, can carry much heavier weights than most multirotors, and have other pro's (like being able to auto-gyrate). Is there some reason we haven't automated the flying of those and are instead going for multirotors?

Or do they exist but just aren't sexy enough to make headlines?
My perspective is the user and application level, not the distribution maker and developer level.
Show HN: Visumonit, a Better UI for Monit
Democracy (in the general sense) works just fine. It relies on groups of people of a certain geographic area physically getting out and interacting. Democracy isn't some guy living in his closet plugged into the web and making life choices based on AI-selected video streams. That's some kind of transhumanist nightmare.

AI is an extinction-level threat to humanity, but when you say that, people think you're talking about Terminator robots laying waste to the landscape. The scenario this article talks about is much more realistic: hundreds of little stupid AIs tearing apart the inner workings of our humanity by giving us exactly what we want (but not what we need).
Democracy was never intended to work. It's just better than the alternatives over the long run.

Multiple names are pretty uncommon here, except for multi-word names like Jean-Luc etc. There's an old custom of naming your child $first $godfather->first $godmother->first $last, but that's slowly dying out. It's why many Belgian males havie Marie as a third name.

I suppose there is some overlap with psyambient and psychill. There was a time when not every genre had psy before it.

If you like that genre, I can recommend Ott's Hallucinogen In Dub remixes and his album Skylon [1]. I also like some specific tracks of Easily Embarrased and Koan but not sure which genre it falls under.

I have just returned from one psytrance festival. I like to go there, not mainly for the music (which I like mostly), but for the atmosphere. Meeting all kind of different people and getting out from the usual "reality" and norms and rat race and jumping into crazines, relaxing the norms and trying new things. It is so refreshing, I always return home more happy and enthusiastic about life. And yes, people eat like tons of drugs at festivals, but I had never ever seen or experienced anything bad from people on trance festivals (which I can see everywhere where alcohol is the main drug). Sounds too hippy maybe, but that is my experience.

I see what you're saying. But I'm curious what the future you described will actually look like. I am NOT curious in the least about the good old days. I know it, it's boring to me. Having privacy and total control over your computing is fine, whatever, I've seen it a thousand times already. It's good. But in today's world what is the benefit of that? The market doesn't respond to that, does not reward it. Human psychology likes the alternative of thin client and total survelience much better because it's more convenient and because it already has more momentum.

So I'm curious what will happen when you can't do almost anything on your computer without it being inside proprietary cloud. When everything I do is recorded, aggregated, and analyzed by mismanaged big data experts. When real life decisions are made that affect me based on this data by some faceless entity without consulting me. Kind of like what China does with their social credit score but much more elaborate. When there are people who are within this system and those who are outside because they are rich and powerful.

It really fascinates me. It can't get so bad as to be intolerable in my lifetime. And what if I become rich and get real power? The ability to make important decisions that change the global landscape. Will I be good or evil? Nowadays rather than complain about the top 0.0001% it's better to put the energy into becoming the top 0.0001%.

And by the way, you never owned Warcraft or Diablo. I suspect that to satisfy you all one needs to do is to realse a few really good and engaging games. You shall have your games and you will play them in the evenings. But during the day you WILL write survelience code for collecting plausable reasons to crush somebody inconvenient to the illuminati.

I think what really sticks out to me, more than other retrocomputer scenes, is that not only is software that should have long been turned over for free or gone open source being sold, but the business model for the software is all very 1990s. "Buy here, $199.99 and download" seems anachronistic to where most other scenes have gotten to.

I mean, these companies must move what, tens of licenses per year? I would bet that many of them would do better just to give the software away for free (as in beer) and put a patreon link on the home page.

I honestly really admire the Amiga scene's incredible tenacity, but can't also help but find it just a hair amusing.

Ned's implicit definition of a mock is narrower than the generally accepted one. He actually described a stub created by monkey-patching. A mock allows for call verifications as well.

There are 3 main categories of techniques for managing dependent components used these days:

1. In-process class/method/function mocks or stubs (http://xunitpatterns.com/Mocks,%20Fakes,%20Stubs%20and%20Dum... and https://martinfowler.com/articles/mocksArentStubs.html)

1a. By monkey patching (which is what Ned has demonstrated in his article very well)

2a. By dependency injection

2. Over-the-wire API mocks or stubs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_API_simulation_t...)

3. Virtual services/simulators
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_API_simulation_t...)

It's worth keeping in mind that all of them are part of a wider group of test doubles: https://www.infoq.com/articles/stubbing-mocking-service-virt...

Other options available for decoupling from test dependencies:

1. In-memory database https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In-memory_database

2. Test container https://www.testcontainers.org/

3. Legacy in a box https://www.thoughtworks.com/radar/techniques/legacy-in-a-bo...

Quote :

Our team was able to access over 27.8 million records, a total of 23 gigabytes of data, which included the following information:

- Access to client admin panels, dashboards, back end controls, and permissions

- Fingerprint data

- Facial recognition information and images of users

- Unencrypted usernames, passwords, and user IDs

- Records of entry and exit to secure areas

- Employee records including start dates

- Employee security levels and clearances

- Personal details, including employee home address and emails

- Businesses’ employee structures and hierarchies

- Mobile device and OS information

One of the more surprising aspects of this leak was how unsecured the account passwords we accessed were. Plenty of accounts had ridiculously simple passwords, like “Password” and “abcd1234”. It’s difficult to imagine that people still don’t realize how easy this makes it for a hacker to access their account.

There is a lot to be said about stupidity of yt algorithm that is basically designed to give you more of the same. However, nyt's nostalgia about the times when they could simply deplatform whoever they do not see fit, is in the league of its own
"Facial records" are publicly available all over facebook, twitter, linkedin and instagram.
My washer is from the mid 00's, and just last year I was able to find a manual for it - this year no such luck.
It's not about the nostalgia. The nostalgia is present in lots of retrocomputing fandoms that aren't anywhere near as vulnerable to scams as the Amigans. RISC OS fans are nostalgic. NES fans are nostalgic. People insisting on re-building a Vax in their basement are nostalgic.

Nostalgia drives things like some guy puts together an order for Amiga logo keycaps, and sells them for barely more than cost price and maybe a couple of people feel the quality isn't as good as they expected. That's not a scam.

But the Amiga will also have a company that says it's going to sponsor a new sports arena for so much money it'll be named the Amiga arena - when there isn't any money. That's not an imaginary example by the way, it happened: https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/amiga-fails-to-del...

Ten years ago one of the Amiga companies told potential customers it would ship them a new multi-core PowerPC Amiga, within the year, with a new OS version that supported using multiple cores. A huge breakthrough. It didn't ship that year, and when it did ship it came with a "preview" that lacked support for the multi-core processor, and you will not be surprised to learn that almost a decade later those customers are still waiting for their "final" version with working multi-core.

But in many ways being heavily down-voted shows exactly why this works. Amigans are sure that if they are insistent enough that it's not a scam then it won't be. They just need to have faith, click that downvote, tell people they're wrong, if I scream loud enough that I can fly surely gravity will just have to believe me...

> When people quarrel over truthfulness is seldom the facts that they disagree on

Eh, I think this now we are at a mostly semantic point: for example, there is nothing strange about arguing there exists some optimal weighting of various facts, and this optimal combination can then justifiably be labelled truth.

> Not counting the type of bias which is not ashamed to twist the actual facts, but that is a rarity, and easily dismissed.

Isolated instances are easily dismissed, but the USA is now ruled by a systematic dismissal of truth so it is not quite so easy.
