My anecdotal experience is that people, in general, are less engaged with Facebook. What used to be news about friends are now shares of some political news source. And the number of people liking or commenting has gone down.

In my circles, what used to be one hundred likes now is a dozen. Most posts only have one or two likes.

If this trend is similar across Facebook to hide the counts makes sense to hide the lack of interest.

Or, it could be that Facebook has changed and they are changing their business model. My bet is that hey really want to hide the lack of interaction and still don't care for the results of their actions.
Huh? At least half the die area is special-purpose hardware for running convolutional neural network inference, specialized for consistent latency on small batches of images streaming from several independent HDR video sensor channels. This chip is very specialized for self-driving cars.
I think conservationsist is meant in a sense that they respect and appreciate nature. Every hunter I've come across was conversationist (in a sense that they appreciate nature), but I am biased because a lot I've come across were through national parks. But there are certainly a lot of conservationist hunters.

I think your second sentence is not well formulated because if one does not follow you line of thought it does not make sense (X does not do Y because it obviously does not do Y). It's probalbly a risky subject, it might be that you just want to avoid too intense internet-arguments with that phrasing.
"All Tesla Superchargers will have free WiFi over time" -- Elon Musk, Apr 2019

My score was on the high 400. One faithful evening after the days’ stress at work I took a shower and decided to surf the internet to get help on how I could get my score raise, in the process I came across different sites I never heard of and I read great reviews about a particular repair firm called Crouch Repair Service on how he helped people raised their credit score and deleted negative items, they were highly recommended so I contacted them immediately via their email provided CROUCHREPAIRSERVICE@GMAIL.COM then they replied and asked me to text their work phone (+1 469 620 0414) so they could discuss the process which I started the next day. To cut the whole story short Crouch raised my score to exactly 795 and paid all my credit card debts now I can finance my house and get approved for a loan. All thanks to Crouch and his team for such a wonderful service rendered, I must confess they’re perfect in what they do. They can also help in any hacking related issue.

They have real value in building team: We are all standing around in a circle; our alignment means something.

I sure use FAANG where it is irreplaceable. As developer I use Azure, Github, etc for example for my consulting gigs where clients demand it. Also guilty using Amazon, Netflix personally. Network card that I buy from Amazon is not any different from the one I get in my local computer store.
But I also have my own products. And for those you will not find any trace of FAANG in there. I just do not need their "added value" and them squeezing my you know what.

These women struggle simply because they compete with much younger and more attractive women who are perfectly content with old, wealthy and unattractive men who aren't even looking for monogamous relationships.

Perhaps it's wiser for them to find a spouse at a younger age, before they make a lot of money.

If you take a closer look at their financial data, you'll find that it's quite a bit better than what people repeat.

In Fiscal Year 2018, they had positive operating cash flow of $2.1 billion. Part of the reason for the difference between accounting earnings (a loss) and actual cash flow is the huge depreciation charges ($1.9 billion) for historical capital expenditures, versus present-day cash outflows.

In that year, Tesla still spent a lot of cap-ex dollars on Model 3 capacity and battery capacity (to the tune of $2.3 billion), so overall cash flow was slightly negative - about $200 million for the year, off of $21 billion in revenue.

In the six months since then, they're reported additional positive operating cash flow: $224mm off of $10.9 billion in revenue.

This is a company experiencing 47% y/y revenue growth for the first half of the year. Yes, they're spending on cap-ex, but they are producing positive operating cash flow and their total operating+cap-ex cash flow is running a little in the red, but <1% of revenues.

And in context, they have $5 billion in cash and $10 billion in short term assets.

Tesla is not at significant financial risk.

Preserving Command Line Workflow for a Package Management System using ASCII DAG Visualization(2018) [0]

It's a paper about implementing a new ASCII graph format for dependency management, and it compares existing ASCII graph formats at the front of the paper.

I actually found interesting that many use-cases of ASCII graphs have diverse requirements that one format can't rule all. In particular, usually dependency trees are deep and wide, while git histories are... relatively short and less complex.

Git ASCII graphing format is perfect for denoting graphs without ambiguity, but it becomes too long for most complex graphs, and that's where the paper comes in.

Just a rant, not really super-related... but worth a mention.

PCIe is probably the "standard" connection that I'd expect in a system today. 16x lanes of PCIe 3.0 will provide over 15 GBps of bandwidth at ~microsecond of latency. PCIe 3.0 as a protocol is complex enough to handle atomics these days (atomic-compare and swap), which allows for high-speed coordination and collaboration, very much akin to multi-core programming on cpu-to-cpu.

"Exotic" connections go beyond PCIe. You could theoretically share DDR4 RAM. With this, its probably more natural to have "cache-coherent" interconnects. Assuming the MESI protocol (aka: very much simplified), the coprocessor can raise a section of RAM (64 bytes or so) into the "exclusive" state. As long as the coprocessor is holding exclusive, the CPU will stall as it tries to read that RAM. The co-processor can return the memory to the CPU control by setting it to "Invalid" state. The CPU can then read (or write) to memory by setting the memory to exclusive: under the CPU's control.

Communication to and from the co-processor in this case isn't "memory-mapped IO", as much as it is "I/O over memory". :-). My explanation above is simplified, but hopefully you get the gist.

A realistic example of a coherency-fabric is something like POWER9 OpenCAPI can communicate with NVidia GPUs at over 50GBps, while sharing the same memory space. (PCIe 3.0 and PCIe 4.0 has features to allow a similar effect at slightly slower speeds. I would bet that PCIe 5.0 is working on some kind of coherency fabric, but I don't actually know).

The most exotic would probably be iGPUs (Intel) and APUs (AMD), which perform this kind of cache-coherent communication but at the L3 cache level and below. Since APUs and iGPUs share the same chip, they can send these messages back and forth without ever leaving the chip. Just entirely within L3 cache itself.
I hope they add email, message and call-based triggers.

Which can also be used as a cheap RPC mechanism.
The issue I'm talking about is what to do when you don't have a good idea of what to put in the "else" branch.
You fix that by banning force unwraps outside of something like unit tests with a linter. We do it at work and I can't remember it ever being an issue.

> Somehow, though, if some 3rd party convinces the bank they're me, and withdraws $1000 from my account, I'm at fault as a victim of "identity fraud" (and am again out $1000, but this time as a result of my bank's incompetence).

This isn't true, though. The bank is the one on the hook.. eventually. The problem, of course, is that you have to get the bank to agree that it wasn't you who made the withdraw..

While it sucks, I am struggling to figure out alternative solutions.

Let's suppose we did the opposite; if you tell the bank that it wasn't you, then they have to prove it was, and in the meantime they give you the money. Sounds great, but this makes fraud about as easy as you can get - open an account, deposit $50,000, then transfer it somewhere else and withdraw it to cash. Then, tell the first bank that it wasn't you that did it. Sure, they will be able to prove it was you eventually.... but according to our new rules, they have to return the money while they figure it out... you withdraw it all and flee.

There would be literally NOTHING the bank could do to prevent this sort of fraud. They could put a million checks in place, but since they would still need to 'prove' it was you when you claim it was fraudulent, and make you whole in the meantime, you could still steal the money during that time. You claim fraud, they put the money back into your account.. and then they show someone (who? an arbiter? the gov?) that they have video evidence of you making the withdraw. While the ruling is happening, you skip town with the money.

It really sucks, and I really can't think of a solution.

I know you're joking, but I have a relative like this.

Owns a huge swath of land someplace remote. Only deals in cash. (His special skills are such that his employer gladly pays him in cash.) Doesn't trust cars with electronics, so he builds his own motorcycles to get around. As far as I know, the only record of him existing is property tax and income tax.

I went to visit once, and he doesn't even have a mailbox. I assume he has a PO Box somewhere. He built his own house. It's not a very good house, but it's good enough for him and his wife. The only electronics he has is a TV that runs off of some kind of tiny water mill in the creek. It only gets over-the-air channels.

I guess he's happy, but it's not the kind of happiness I could bear. He also seems to have lost all interest in shaving.
The project is a result of my previous research of open source tools which allow me to query for rows over CSV file as simple as over database.

There were a few tools and libraries around but most of them convert data to SQLite database as a first step which is not the best option when you have hundreds or more MB of data.

As a result I implemented the tool by processing SQL-like input using ANTLR and applying computed AST to the input CSV file. It worked quite fast for medium sized files.

After my initial approach I added support for DB indexes (based on B-Tree implementation in LMDB project) which highly increased query speed for CSVs files which size is more than 1 GB.
Both, in my opinion.

Just because I’m not a skilled enough developer to code Linux from scratch doesn’t mean I can’t make a patch for it.

Also doesn’t guarantee that I won’t generate unintended consequences

Point being - you don’t have to be capable of making the whole to make modifications. (But in any complex system, there are likely to be unintended consequences)

A good example would be immune modulation for cancer therapy - ipilimumab and it’s ilk are miracle workers for many, however because of the complexity of the immune system in a proportion of patients there is a cascade of multi organ failure kicked off by the treatment

I remember many years ago, when a 16 MHz 68030 Macintosh was somewhat usable, but old and slow, by the standards of the day.

I had read how, when the 68000 came out originally, it was considered to be a "minicomputer on a chip", while the 68030 was anticipated to be a "mainframe on a chip".

So, I was unable to viscerally appreciate that perspective, until I ran the original MacPaint, which was extremely optimized for the 8MHz 68000 in the original Mac, and then I was amazed at how fast the 68030 was.

On June 12, 2016, [...] Unsurprisingly, just 3 days later Reddit altered the website to prevent posts from The Donald from reaching the front page—ever.

That statement is not true.

Early in 2019 one of 'the_donald' posts hit Reddit's front page with a thumbnail showing an iron lung. Being from a medical background, I commented on the fact that I hadn't seen an iron lung for 50 years and I was surprised that they still existed. In doing so, I unknowingly posted on the 'the_donald' subreddit.

I then received a message that I was banned from some other third-party subreddit purely because I had committed the crime of posting on 'the_donald'

When I posted in one of my usual subreddits commenting on this strange set of circumstances, my new posting complaint was "disappeared" within minutes. That was pure censorship.

So ended my ten-year association with Reddit. I logged out and have never logged in again since.

Does anyone know why Gatsby uses GraphQL? I don't understand how a static site benefits from GraphQL.
Sure, but I don't identify with it. I haven't really been hurt past, you know, hey I like this girl and she doesn't like me boo hoo.

My PhD adviser treated us well. He could be bluntly critical of our work ("Which of these conclusions do you actually believe?" became a catchphrase) but he treated us fine as people.

You sound like you've never really listened to climate change skeptics. Some of them make valid points, worrying points about media exaggeration of genuine science, actual scientific malpractice and the frequency of failed predictions in the past. You should try it. It may prove mind expanding.

But do you really want to immerse yourself in ambiguity? Or do you want to see the world as a titanic struggle between good and evil? Children very much want the latter. Disney movies always depict a purely good hero/purely evil villain dichotomy because these are stories designed for children who can't/won't handle anything complex, and additionally in order to teach them a moral code.

When I see the rhetoric around climate science, it often reminds me of Disney movies. There's Good People like the speaker and then a dark, shadowy conspiracy of Evil People whose inexplicably malign and self-destructive motives are never explained ... and who certainly aren't allowed to explain themselves!

After all, are you the devil you decry?

The difference is, I have to go to work and focus on providing for my family.

Indeed. Or put a bit more harshly, "why is nobody doing anything" has a simple answer: because people like you have chosen to enjoy the benefits the world has to offer in its current form, benefits like having a family and a job that's based further than walking distance.

Children have never had to provide for anyone. How can they understand this decision, the tradeoffs that go into it? Why should any adults care what they think about the big issues of the day when they've spent their entire lives in carefully controlled environments, one in which to disagree with the opinions of "experts" (teachers) yields swift and immediate punishment? They can't even start to think for themselves until they're outside that environment, which for a few could take a couple more decades.

> As capitalism accelerates

Over the long term, capitalism has been increasingly restrained since the early 20th Century (since the mid-20thC, the modern mixed economy has displaced the original system named “capitalism” as the dominant system in the developed world, almost all current “capitalism” is really mixed economies); there have been short-term and local regression, sure, but overall capitalism doesn't accelerate.
