You are mistaken. Thunderbolt alternate mode does not require any additional pins, it does require special cabling though. Most Thunderbolt cables are not capable of any 5-10(-20) gbps USB but they are still using the exact same connector.

USB 4 will change this in that Thunderbolt cables will now be compatible with everything.

The only thing you possibly could think of is VirtualLink which repurposed the existing USB 2.0 pins for two more high speed lanes but even that is using the exact same physical connector.
I just migrated one of the largest French companies to AWS, they do not use PHP at all.

None of these are an alternative to iMessage. They all either are missing key features or require you to deal with unencrypted communications or relayed encryption.
You are misunderstanding me. I don't have problems with the fact that Rust is bootstrapped, but with the high rate this bootstrapping is happening. That a 12 week old compiler is already considered as too old to compile the newest rustc. This seems wrong.
It doesn't help either that one is a subset of the other. Or maybe I'm parsing that wrongly.
PictoChat was great, we used it during schoolwide assemblies (put in the middle of the day so students couldn't ditch as easily).
> IMO a reasonable compromise is WhatsApp.

Yeah, having thought about it when this comes up, there's a very real trade-off between what people are willing to use because they've heard of it or might actually have it, whether that app/service will stay around or keep similar features in the future, and whether it's associated with a large org that may farm the data for personal information about you in some way (even if that's just your location).

Something like Signal seems good, but I imagine it may be a pain to get some of my extended family to adopt it (or to make sure things send using it).

WhatsApp would be good in that people have heard of it, and if they have Facebook it's probably easy for them to integrate with, but people are much more likely to have relative's phone numbers than service profile links, meaning they might opt to not use it in many cases.

Really, it needs to be ubiquitous on phones for it really to be a viable replacement that will be used 9 out of 10 times. That leaves RCS as an upgrade to SMS, but who knows if we'll ever get that. I know people complain about how it doesn't actually raise limits enough, but going from SMS to a limit fo 105 MB for videos and more features (even if not on parity with current systems) is a huge step, and I think the only one likely to achieve even close to the same deployment as SMS, and then only if Apple supports it too (assuming US networks actually get on board).
The 40 Gbps speeds of Thunderbolt 3/USB 4 are sustainable over only very short runs with passive cables -- anything longer than about 50 centimeters requires active circuitry.

There is no level of manufacturing scale that will make an active signal cable cheaper than an equivalent-length passive one, and cable manufacturers, who live and die on razor thin margins, are never going to be convinced to forgo the cost savings of building cheaper passive cables when their client's devices don't even use the higher speeds the active circuitry is required for.

I think the biggest lie told to me as a child was that if I studied hard and did well in school, I would easily be able to get a good job and be successful. In the real world quickly became clear that connections and relationships have an oversized influence on hiring and promotion decisions. For example, I couldn't even get a phone screen at my current employer when I applied through their standard jobs site. I found a way to get an employee referral a week or so later and went from being just another auto-reject to not only being hired, but being a high performer (for 5+ years and going). I'm sure that merit plays a large role, but I feel that relationships and connections are vastly under-emphasized when adults talk to children, including college students, about how things work. I wish I had known how this all worked much earlier in life.

It is commonly messed up, and I'm not claiming it's easy by any means, although a lot of pitfalls are just because some ciphers are a lot worse than others in being able to get right. But what I mean is that the difficulty of asymmetric crypto is in a very different league IMO. The kinds of pitfalls that are in symmetric crypto (with the better ciphers at least) tend to be pretty understandable for non-experts (regardless of how obvious they are a priori). Whereas with asymmetric crypto it seems like a PhD in number theory (or similar) is more or less a prerequisite.

I don't think that people will stop trying to accrue wealth, it's more likely they will just do more to get around whatever regulations you propose. For example, Ireland and tech companies.
Thank you, I've got software expertise but no hardware at all, I've been looking for something like this.

Astranis (YC W16) | San Francisco, CA | Full-Time | Onsite | US Citizen or Green Card

Four billion people do not have access to the internet. Astranis is going to change that. We are building the next generation of smaller, lower-cost telecommunications satellites to bring the world online.

Come work with incredibly smart people who have flown things in space before. No prior space experience needed, you just need to enjoy getting your hands dirty with real hardware and be okay with struggling to do things that seem impossibly hard.

We’re a well-funded team of over 60 world-class engineers that moves fast. We raised our Series A from Andreessen Horowitz and Y Combinator in 2017, launched our first satellite in 2018, secured our first client in 2019, and we’ll triple the satellite internet capacity of Alaska in 2020.

Check out our postings here -- https://jobs.lever.co/astranis.
Roles we’re hiring for include:

* Power electronics -- design ~2 kW satellite power systems, including solar arrays and electronics for power regulation and distribution

* Thermal -- design and analyze systems to reject sizable point loads without the aid of convection

* Embedded software -- write mission-critical software that runs the spacecraft. No previous embedded or space experience required.

* Avionics -- PCB design, layout, bringup, test of electrical subsystems. Bonus: experience with fault-tolerant electronics

* Aerospace/controls -- implement solutions to 6 DOF, non-linear control problems. Experience with spacecraft controls is a plus but not required

* RF/Microwave -- work across a broad range designing and implementing RF systems at microwave frequencies, including LNAs and power amplifiers

* DSP/FPGA -- program FPGA hardware, develop custom DSP IP cores and integrate off-the-shelf IP cores

* Operations -- identify and complete cross-functional strategic projects that span recruiting, onboarding, culture, finance, marketing, legal/regulatory, vendor management, and far more
I haven't seen these arguments, but not passively reversible perhaps? (Isn't there logic in the cable or something like that?)
I don't agree. Both of these things are bribery. You are using money to buy an advantage. The only difference is who gets paid.

Donations are currently considered an acceptable form of bribery because the universities have spent decades crafting the narrative that a donation doesn't actually affect an applicant's prospects. But this is plainly not true.

If you want to have a moral leg to stand on with your distinction, we should require universities to be transparent about which donations are buying spots for which students.
Python's optional type hints even with mypy are nowhere near strict/expressive than a statically typed language like Go. Type hints in Python are an afterthought and it shows in a lot of cases.
True, but there is still no physical way to turn the car on. Teslas rely on wireless communication to turn on. That seems like a poor design to me.
I dont like the idea of extensions being able to inject data in either direction.

The recent election was an internal party election, similar to the Republican or Democratic National Congress. This is because in a general election in the UK, the Prime Minister is not directly elected by the people - they vote for a party, and the leader of that party can change at any time, which is what happened when Theresa May stepped down.
Europe has long been the Conservative Party's kryptonite. I am almost surprised it took this long for the referendum to break them up, but you now have Ken Clarke kicked out of the Conservative party, along with people like Nicolas Soames, Churchill's grandson.

Ken Clarke has also been making statements that he would be willing to back Corbyn in a unity government.

We are in very strange political waters right now. But one thing that seems clear is that the Conservative and Unionist Party seems to be in rather deep existential trouble.

Except that wealth is quite sticky in the modern world - when you have wealth it's trivial to retain and grow it, it is hard to acquire.

I'd prefer to see a silly non-sense good for parting fools from their wealth, like BMWs and Lambos or the custom cars that run up to a few million a luxury car is a great way to attach a big price tag, get the rich's money - and not deprive anyone of anything useful.
That's less true for expensive private schools than it is for less exclusive public universities. Nobody gets kicked out of USC for poor grades.
The system is unfair.

We want people to participate in this unfair system, so we tell them the system is fair.

I understand what you’re saying, but to me the obvious answer is to stop supporting this old unfair system.
This is also balanced by the fact that as far as we know, most any mosquito can fill most of the same roles in the food chains. We're mostly concerned with wiping out the few species that feed on humans and our pets/livestock. We could eradicate two or three species which carry West Nile, Malaria, Zika, Chickungunya, and a few other really bad diseases of humans, dogs, cats, songbirds, horses, and cattle that are spread by mosquitoes. Other species would still lay eggs, hatch, and get eaten or reproduce normally without threat to us.
imo That can only be possible if you can change human nature itself. Governments are just hacks for the worse aspects of humanity. There are limits to all known forms of government. Historically, humanity always finds some loophole to cheat.
It does when you're the biggest customer.
There have been several attempts to create "tip jars" for open source that automatically split a total commitment across multiple projects or developers. Several ran aground on implementation issues like money transmitter regulation and payment processing. But even when the systems worked well and stayed out of trouble, they just didn't see that much money flowing through.

Two subspecies of the tip jar rose to public prominence in the last few years.

Crowdfunding sites like Patreon focus on perks. Both legally and practically, they eschew "donation", partly to avoid money transmission issues, partly because people are just more likely to give money for something in return, rather than gratuitously. Open software coders who've done well via these platforms number very few and often offer substantial perks that appeal to "enterprise" customers at high tiers.

Sites like OpenCollective focus on raising for groups, rather than individuals. The amounts committed to groups can sometimes reach significant looking totals in the thousands of dollars, but splitting among contributors often cuts the per-individual number down significantly. The transparency and other groupware features put social pressure on individual developers not to take too much.

I wrote a 2,300 word blog post about affiliate links earlier today that I will be posting next week (and probably linking to that in that little snippet of text).

It goes into the details.

The TL;DR is no it's not worthwhile if you're factoring in time spent vs money earned.

I put close to 5 years and 5,000 hours of my time into creating my site and supporting anyone who asks questions for free with zero expectations. I currently make about $50-75 a month from all affiliate links combined.

But to be fair only 5% of the pages on my site have affiliate links because my site isn't about affiliate sales. It just so happens as a developer I sometimes find useful products and write about them. 95% of the posts are about some programming / developer topic.
A tidbit, a one of more lunatical proposal for the next gen fab design is to build it around a multimegawatt cyclotron, and have the light source problem "solved for good"

The genuine problem with tin plasma laser is its power efficiency. An early adopter runs can bare with 0.02% energy efficiency, but imagine, say, a few 20 line fabs and their power consumption.

Another very important advantage of this design would be getting a more stable, easily tunable, and more narrowband light source. Tin plasma has around 1nm deviation in its spectrum, while a cyclotron can get to picometres on an arbitrary wavelength.

And with all above, you get a supremely tempting option to try diffractive optics, and do away with all geometry imposes nonsense of EUV reflective optics...

"But now Google is taking over: later this month, Android users in the UK and France will be able to opt in to RCS Chat services provided directly by Google instead of waiting for their carrier to support it."[1]

Once I left my house key at home. “No big deal,” I thought, “I can get in through the garage.” I got home and the power was out. I was locked out. If I’m understanding the logic, that means PG&E left me stranded.
Yep. Just like spellcheck in Chrome that will communicate contents to Google servers, unless you opt out.
Hmm, you definitely have a point. I was thinking more API tokens and private keys, but confidential data itself falls into a separate category, it cannot be revoked or rolled.
And don't be surprised if MPs vote against it.
I think this is a perfect example of a completely rational implementation that given all the facts almost all developers would agree to - except because of Google's reputation for pervasive tracking, abruptly sunsetting popular products, and general we-know-better approach to software, will become a point of flak for the core Go team.

To be abundantly clear, and because a lot of Google employees read this, the we-know-better comment isn't a jab - because often Google engineers DO know better, but it does occasionally mix with i.e. poor communication and create frustration for the many developers who use Google services and tools.

FDA request public comments regarding the reclassification of cannabis
you gotta love how quickly people will downvote anyone who provides any sort of evidence for the existence of psychosomatic syndromes. they'll probably claim it's because you didn't read the article. but this can't be it because the article very clearly said the etiology is still up for debate (despite focusing on the one medical doctor's claims). there's something inherently offensive about the proposition of psychogenic disorders. neurotics will not so easily give up their jouissance.

i greatly admire schubiner and sarno for exploring this issue but their limits are clear, and they admit it themselves. relatively few patients (i think for sarno it was like 20%?) will "accept the diagnosis." and why should they? again, in 80% of patients the crisis of jouissance is not sharp enough to really investigate their unconscious. and of course in many of those 20% of patients (yourself and myself included) the jouissance is displaced elsewhere, perhaps to somewhere much less obvious than chronic lower back pain.
I always have trouble explaining this limitation of Go maps.

First, a string can point to an unlimited amount of data (i.e., it can be of arbitrary length) and all of its characters are taken into account when deciding string equality.

Now, an array type in Go is not like that: the length of the array is part of the type. There is (or at least there wasn't when I last checked) no type of all arrays of ints, say, but there is a type of array of 5 ints, a type of arrays of 8 ints, etc. Each of those is of limited size.

A slice is like a string, it can point to an arbitrary amoun of data, but slices are not allowed as map keys.

A struct has a fixed number of members and is only allowed as a map key if all of its members are of types allowed as maps keys.

So a struct type that is allowed as a map key type can only point to unlimited data all used for equality if it contains directly or indirectly a string somewhere. Among types allowed as keys, the only source or arbitrary-sizedness are strings.

For example, if you want to represent multivariate polynomials sparsely as a map from exponent vector to coefficients (i.e., the polynomial 3x^2y^3-7xy^4 corresponds to the map {(2,3)=>3, (1,4)=>-7}) you can only do it in Go with the built-in maps awkwardly. You could pick a maximum number of variables and use arrays of exponents as keys. You can leave the number of variables arbitrary and convert exponent vectors to strings (i.e., use {"2,3"=>3, "1,4"=>-7}). I find it frustrating that those are my options.
Can I vote, personally, for the better reality?
