I've read Marx, Engels and other marxists. Socialism is the phase 1 that any goverment must implement in order to achieve the proletary ditactorship and after that, achieve communism utopia. Once people is molded into one single line of thoughs, objectives and all property will be abolished through destruction or State ownership, after all that, as Marx said, the human would become interestless to the point it will never think for itself. Absurd. They've concluded that Phase 1 is needed, without questioning, and using force by all means, even killing people, lying or forcing into slavery. Lenin also said this in several publications:

> “We should have taken to arms more resolutely, energetically and aggressively; we should have explained to the masses that it was impossible to confine things to a peaceful strike and that a fearless and relentless armed fight was necessary. And now we must at last openly and publicly admit that political strikes are inadequate; we must carry on the widest agitation among the masses in favour of an armed uprising and make no attempt to obscure this question by talk about "preliminary stages", or to befog it in any way. We would be deceiving both ourselves and the people if we concealed from the masses the necessity of a desperate, bloody war of extermination, as the immediate task of the coming revolutionary action.

The problem with socialists states is, they cannot plan everything, so they rely on the worst corporativism or prebendary, and that is not capitalism, not the classic view, not the modern one. Young people of today is so fooled that they wear a rainbow shirt with the face of Che Guevara.

Capitalism is not perfect, but it is the best system we know and the only system who took the entire population of earth out of poverty.

One of my computers successfully updated from 1803 to 1809 without having to decrypt and re-encrypt the boot drive. So I thought the problem had been fixed, but it wasn't. I couldn't go from 1809 to 1903 without decrypting. I'll cross my fingers and try it again when 1909 comes out.

Another machine couldn't even update to 1809 without decrypting. After updating and re-encrypting, it refuses to mount any system favorite volumes. VeraCrypt is a mess. Or rather, Windows keeps breaking things.
Lets do an experiment. Go to a park in the middle of London, and set up a tent, and scatter used needles on the sidewalk. You'll be involuntarily moved out of the park within a couple of hours.

Since your governments go ahead and remove people who are trying to live in public spaces, you don't see them, and you assume they don't exist.

Yeah, I don't buy that. It's still just a matrix multiplication (for the linear bits). Incredibly fast. Besides, the old physics rule of thumb is that any real world equation with a bunch of parameters only has 5-7 that actually matter, and only 3 that matter a lot. Everything else can be set to zero without noticeable change in the result.
That's because China is in English a short term for People's Republic of China while Republic of China's short term is Taiwan.
>There's got to be some compromise, coz it sounds like if you buy into Apple then you're SOL if they can't be bothered supporting your hardware.

I think part of the idea is (and how they see it), if you buy into Apple, you should have enough spare money to upgrade your hardware as needed. This sucks for us which are not exactly affluent, but that's part of the thing. Apple never tried to maximize affordability or expenses.

(Though in some cases, they have been the more affordable of the bunch, e.g. when the iPad was announced, it took about 2 years for competitive machines to reach price parity. Or now, e.g. the newly announced MS earbuds are more expensive than airpods).

It's not a platform for long term support and maximum bang for the buck, it's a platform for user convenience ("it just works, mostly"), inter-operation ("things -phone, earbuds, speaker, watch, etc- just work together, mostly"), and cohesiveness ("things have a unified vision, mostly"), plus polish (thinking some things more through in their design -- not always though, e.g. BS MBPr keyboard).

I use "mostly" above in the sense that it's not obviously perfect (and some areas far from it). But the tradeoff is in the areas mentioned above.
Greed, comfort, and fear vs. courage and embracing consequences.

China seems to be a good test for our foundations and principles: democracy, freedom of speech and opinion on the one hand, and capitalism, profit of shareholders, fear of losing a job or losing a market or a supplier on the other hand.

Apple, Blizzard, NBA, South Park, ... There will be more, and, unfortunately, we prefer money over virtue.

> The RS decoders used in typical CD players doesn't come anywhere near the theoretical performance possible from the format, they're only used as erasure codes.

Reed-Solomon is fascinating, especially the way both RSPC and CIRC have both P and Q parity. Depending on the order and how many passes you do of each, you can recover more and more data. If you can guess where the error is, you can correct up to twice as many errors. And as a last resort for RSPC, you can potentially brute force corrections via the checksum values.

Reed-Solomon error correction ends up being more of an art than a science, and it's why different CD-ROM drives have different success rates at reading damaged discs.

Explaining Reed-Solomon would be a fun article, but probably too intense and niche a subject. Tons of linear algebra over galois fields, and intimidating if not overly complex algorithms like Berlekamp-Massey, Chien search, and Forney's formula (some of which can be brute forced these days.)

RSPC makes it even more complex with two overlapping channels of parity. CIRC (cross-interleave) makes that even more complex still with differing delay slots per byte of error correcting data. See pages 45 and 46: http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/files/ECMA-ST...
Fedora 31 Won't Add an Official Power Desktop Spin

Xbox Game Pass vs. PlayStation Now vs. Stadia, Which One Is Best?
No, these were obviously examples. Our site sells expensive products that require a certain level of "visual appreciation", just like paintings. No one would buy something like that, without being able to see it.
I have never, ever used Photoshop, and have used Gimp since one of its earliest versions (but not frequently) and I'd still pull out Gimp as the textbook example of a non-intuitive UI with poor discoverability. It's gotten better, but it took many years for it to add the hint of pressing shift to draw lines, for example.

The point is that a paint application is not something most of us expect to have to spend time learning how to use effectively for the most basic features, because conceptually painting is very simple.

A lot of people expect the simplicity to be the default, and for the complexity to build from that.

A very simple way of making Gimp far more approachable would be to have a "basic" toolbar with a simplified sets of tools and dedicated tools for things like drawing a line, and ask on first startup if you want the basic toolbar or "advanced" toolbars, and tell you how to access additional toolbars.

But there are many other warts as well, such as the Save vs. Export distinction which gives you an error and tells you to use Export if you try to Save with another extension, instead of just bringing up the export options and maybe warning on the first go. 90% of the time when I use Gimp, I have no interest in saving as xcf, and I'd expect that to be the case for a lot of users. Yes, I understand it's worth warning users if they risk losing information, but to then instead telling people effectively "I can see what you're trying to do - it's very obvious, so I'll tell you how to do it instead of doing it" is just annoying.

TSMC Achieves HVM on Its 7nm+ EUV Process
Civilization is exactly about imposing a philosophy on how people should live. Like it or not, that's how it works. If you don't want to play ball, there are plenty of open spaces in the US where people can live off the land without creating a public health hazard.

If people don't want to be homeless, we should do everything in our power to help them get into housing, sustainably. But if they do? No thanks, do that somewhere else, where the land can be reasonably and cost-effectively set up to support that. One of the most expensive, highly-regulated real estate markets in the US is not that place.

I do quite lot of laser-cutting (and a bit of mostly-planar CNC), and find FreeCAD to be quite practical for that. It is similar to Fusion360, in that it is a 3D CAD software - but primarily driven by 2d sketches with constraints. If your creations are rather "mechanical" in shapes, their constraint system should get you pretty far. Unfortunately the more "graphical" aspects, like text, Beziers etc. are not good. So I tend to use Inkscape for that, and import the vectors into FreeCAD. Would looove if FreeCAD got Inkscape-level usability for those workflows.

One can also do cross-object relationships using mathematical expressions. This can also be used to make eerything can driven form a single spreadsheet of input values.

Note that in FreeCAD you can always jump down to the Python scripting layer when you hit limits. Either directly (open View -> Panels -> Python console, then do an action in the UI), or using CadQuery: a OpenSCAD like eDSL for FreeCAD models in Python. For over 150 models I have done this twice.

Note that (semi)automated layout of a sheet for production, there is no good solution in FreeCAD right now. I am quite interested in plugging that hole, but don't have the resources for it at this time...

this article sounds like a drunken conservative rant
Rightwing conservative capitalist here. This imperialistic US foreign policy is so destructive and so unfair. Sanctions and trade embargoes are an act of war, yet if Iran or Venezuela responds, the US declares it an attack and feels justified to impose even harder sanctions or perhaps to invade.
The Modular PC: Intel’s New Element Brings Project Christine to Life
This is just a different deployment and pricing scheme, you still get the same OS with same backwards compatibility.

Besides i do not see how they could do a "windows-as-a-service" offer without an OS, unless they convince every computer manufacturer to make their PC BIOSes a thin client for Microsoft's servers and you rent computing time/power from their datacenters running Windows (though even then, it'd still be Windows with the same backwards compatibility).

(of course all that sucks for us who want to buy a thing and keep it forever - or at least as "forever" as activation servers will allow you to - but i'm trying to ignore that aspect in this comment here)

Still, you went to school. Would your school situation have been better if the government didn't provide schools? If the schools are lacking, shouldn't the government provide better schools?

Similarly, roads to get to school, law enforcement keeping the place fairly safe, rather than overrun by roving warlord bands, food standards that ensure corporations aren't selling you poison. I think living is generally better in countries where the government takes good care of these sort of things.

Although I suppose in lawless countries, rich people could just become their own warlord and hire their own army.

I feel we're already reaching a point where game preservation for older systems like Mega CD and PC Engine CD really need to have multiple rips that then weigh all the rips to try and correct for individual errors in each rip.

You're not locked up. You agree to the extra unpaid time as a bundle with the paid time. You can quit any time. And your pay each week is a fair amount.
As far as I know, the "native interface" in Windows is not immediate-mode. Also Linux barely has one, so that's very confusing too. How does that work out?

I too feel the project page really could use a couple of screenshots, since when talking about visual things, pictures do help.

Update: I watched the video, it looks really nice and smooth but seems to be the basic framework on which you can build a user interface, not an actual user interface. For instance he shows off basic drawing, and support for dynamic layout of user interface elements, but no ready-made widgets. Maybe I'm still not getting the full picture.
Credit for what? The theoretical work for which Turing is most known - the concept of Turing machines and undecidability - was published publicly and before the war. He did not contribute to the design of a physical computer until after the war. Colossus, the code-breaking "computer", was not of his design (and the man who did design it is not at all famous for it).

Which is the first IoT assistant thing, first released in 2006. Its a french system, (which had very good localisations though). What I loved the best was getting it to talk in a french accent.

So I set the TTS to french, but sent english. It would say the time like:

Which is way more loveable than in american english (back then TTS in british was rare. )

Two observations without much substance:

1. I love the logo of the ITK. So joyful! (See https://www.itk.ca/itk-board-of-directors-adopts-inuktut-qal...)

2. The comments section of https://nunatsiaq.com/stories/article/national-inuit-org-app... and https://nunatsiaq.com/stories/article/inuit-qaliujaaqpait-th... contains considerable toxicity. I was expecting general upvoting among a people here but I guess I expected too much from a comments section of a newspaper.
Maybe something like what HN does. From what I understand, recent things get shown higher here than older things. Older things need more upvotes to keep up. Probably something like votes/age or something.

His GopherCon talks are pretty gentle tutorials. In practice, looks like your program becomes responsible for quite a bit of scaffolding that UI coders take for granted these days, in exchange for multi-platform write-once. Kind of reminds me of GUI programming back in the 80’s, where your program is responsible for managing every state refresh and screen update. It’s efficient, but I’ve seen larger teams without sufficient discipline have a challenge coping with this style. For a lot of useful problem domains however, it’s really tough to beat its time to market and efficiency. Lots of startups would probably love this.
