Well unless you are not working on a kernel / libc / compiler component, I'm sure that the closest thing to encountering 'RSS Memory' (meaning Residential Set Size which is the memory of a processes that resides in physical RAM but not in swap memory), would be to open up 'top' or 'htop' in the terminal to see that figure.

But no, this isn't an everyday term by average users, but I would expect at least software engineers to be familiar with the term.

If you want authentic and high quality you need craft.

If you're not building a lifestyle business you need craft to operate as a business.

Who do you really think has a chance at success the guy who works 4 hours a week or the guy who puts time in their work?

You need more but you need different kinds. There's no way to avoid the work, and you got to be good at the work to get anywhere. Marketing is a craft so is sales so is raising money so is writing. There's no way around it and "4 week work week" is probably more applicable to the time of dropshipping, blogging, affiliate marketing and other lifestyle business than anything concerned with "time to market".

Ignore craft at your own peril (cannot go anywhere without a very experienced CTO).

Of course, you won't see it until the makers get their shit together. Why else would they glue things such that one can't replace even some cheap component and instead having to buy a new phone?

For now the ruse brings the loot, as with everything, it goes in waves, this shall pass and we shall eventually get to a stage where we will find balance in this matter.

Currently, the battery is what pretty much limits the device profile. All the miniaturization achieved on the components should actually aid in nice, modular design that allows replacement of particular faulty part (if you can deglue the whole thing first).

Take a look at this list then:

https://www.ifixit.com/smartphone-repairability?sort=score

You'll see plenty of nice devices scoring high marks. You'll also find comparable competitors scoring low mark.

Lack of repairability is mostly a choice - an active choice. Browsing the low scores on the list I linked to, you'll see that companies do extra work to reduce repairability, sometimes with express purpose of just making things harder to repair.

There are no technical reasons why so many devices are not repairable. There is only moral bankrupcy at institutional level, and lack of regulation that would force the market players to stop behaving antisocially.

This quote sums it up very well:

Warned Jackson, “Those companies are asking shareholders to trust management’s business judgment — not just for five years, or 10 years, or even 50 years. Forever.” Such perpetual dual-class ownership “asks them to trust that founder’s kids. And their kids’ kids. And their grandkid’s kids . . . It raises the prospect that control over our public companies, and ultimately of Main Street’s retirement savings, will be forever held by a small, elite group of corporate insiders — who will pass that power down to their heirs.”

No. Unlike mainstream CPUs, for which sufficient information is publicly available to develop competitive compilers, FPGAs are closed systems. There is enough documentation to write the synthesis and map steps (which compile VHDL/Verilog/whatever to an architecture dependent netlist) and for the place step (which assigns instances from the netlist to blocks on the FPGA device). For the remaining steps (routing, static timing analysis, and bitstream generation), hardly any required documentation is available.

For a couple of small, outdated FPGAs, some of that information has been reverse-engineered and used for open source software, but I don't know how reliable, e.g., their static timing analysis is. I would never, ever use that for a non-hobby project.

This is a way. But you still focused on craft. You just took much longer to do it and in smaller chunks. Also you probably underestimate your own skill or have some perfect combination of skills to makeup for lack of focus.

It's possible that for most people your way wouldn't work and the alternative way (putting in a lot of time) works better. Also at the start you could not have put in only 4 hours. You put in hundreds if not thousands of hours and only in maintenance mode do you go down to nothing. There's probably time you aren't counting either. All your life led up to that moment and all that.

So I think you and people like you are the exception and saying what the OP says is much more realistic and widely applicable. It's simply not possible to get where you want to go without putting in time (talent luck market and perseeverence could lower time to near zero but that's the exception).
Your link clarifies the timeline a bit, but the key question remains unanswered: Can we trust a person's own recollection of the timestamp associated with a decision?

Making a decision is one thing. Being aware that one has made a decision is a completely different thing, and the circuitry for introspection doesn't always seem to work even when you try. It can take seconds, minutes, or even weeks before you realize that you've been doing something. The prefrontal cortex is very expensive to operate, so the stupid Android battery optimizer tries to bypass it whenever possible.
This is actually a point in favour of Neumann since it shows he actually believed the bullcrap he was selling around what WeWork was. Like many have noted, it was a landlord with a particular focus on the startup and tech markets. That's it.

Yep. Every team project in maths where someone is completely free to use "semisimple lie algebras and topological quantum fields" has to count me out.

If a language feature exists and you program in that language you have to know how to deal with that feature, even if you don't write code using it you have to be able to re-factor it and re-write code that used it.

Unless we become the kind of person that doesn't ever work in teams or we just hate our team mates and care little for project success.

The point the parent makes is a legitimate one. It can be argued against but your response hasn't achieved that in a meaningful way.

The Stanford Prison Experiment is one of the most famous psychology experiments in history. For decades, we've been told that it proves how regular people easily turn sadistic when they are asked to role play as prison guards. But the story now appears to be mostly fraudulent. Thibault Le Texier is a researcher who dug into the Stanford archives and learned that the "prison guards" were actually told how to behave in order to support the experimenters' thesis. On this episode, Thibault and Julia discuss his findings, how the experimenters got away with such a significant misrepresentation for so long, and what this whole affair says about the field of psychology.

I think this is a commmon goalpost-moving strategy. The likes of Dennett et al don't deny that first-person experience is real, but rather that it is inexplicable or mysterious somehow. For the case of free will, Dennett is excellent at showing how homonuculus thinking pervades even careful thought on the issue.
It could also be that this was just something he was using to look more sincere.
Awesome to see this here. I used the development & Form section to create the beat generator for Strikefree[1] with the web audio api. I've been experimenting with pitch as well but for some reason complete randomization leads to better compositions. Honestly when I made music, I'd also come up with better compositions when I let go of everything I knew, and enjoyed the happy accidents.

It makes sense.

To uphold the value of their degrees, elite institutions are more interested in selecting for real-life performance rather than paperwork-wizards. For some fields--like mathematics--I'm sure those things track closely. For other fields, not so much. Throwing the standardized tests away will probably spare them from a great deal of admissions apologetics.

For less prestigious institutions, they like money--as evidenced by how low their ACT/SAT admission cutoffs already are. This move is great for plausible deniability when admitting illiterates for cash and prizes.

edit: would add that Gates and Zuckerberg are prime examples of pre-selecting performance rather than creating it

Busy streets, corners, plazas, indoor whatevers, and so on.

Furthermore the end goal is natural convergence with WiFi. The telcos already are pushing Ethernet more and more (backhaul and fronthaul), of course over fibre (because bandwidth requirements, and timing has to be calibrated to microseconds because radio symbols are being encapsulated in Ethernet).

MP-TCP has been recently merged to the kernel, it was already enabled on a lot of phones.

What's missing are ways to allow hosting secure hybrid-cells/APs so telcos are able and willing to offload traffic.

I think all the 'Uber-for-X'/food delivery apps that popped up circa 2015 and went under a couple years later were actually the pets.com equivalents. That bubble popped and people didn't think much about it, because Facebook, Google et al were doing well.

WeWork is an outlier case since Softbank caused the problem by giving them all this money but will probably keep them afloat as well.
Well, shipping could be made using energy from renewable sources, thus removing any need for oil extraction - which I assume is the end goal here (and the truly sustainable outcome we're after).
The amount of work that must have gone into that!

I'm not sure about the target audience. For example, I looked at the Pitch poster (notation-pitch.pdf), and it seems to target people starting out on the piano. Nothing wrong with that, but people starting on instruments that don't have pre-programmed pitches (violin, cello, trombone, ...) Probably want to know there's a difference between fi c-sharp and d-flat.

Also, there's a cultural divide in how you read notes (movable-do versus fixed-do) and I'm not sure what you want to do with that.

This needs to stop. We need laws to keep internet-connected devices from spying on us in our own homes. We need an option to purchase internet-free devices.

I don't think hackability is so much the point as open ecosystem, privacy, and interoperability. iOS wiped the floor with Symbian, and Android wiped the floor with iOS due to being more open than the predecessor. Linux is the most popular OS kernel in the world (think routers, smart devices, etc.)

I'm on mobile, so I can't whip up a jsfiddle, but I know from experience this doesn't sound terrible?

It's hard to type the equations out on my phone, but the resulting wave when adding a and a# has a very large period and sounds bad, where a + c# has a shorter period and sounds good. I'd be curious about the pure sine wave which matches the period of the summed waves.

I feel like there's more to this. Maybe I can make a visualization with matching sound over the weekend.

Whoever you are talking to, you need to be on a similar place when it comes to the balance of reason and emotions. Otherwise you talk a language that is too different.

So in one culture you talk with reason; in another, you talk with emotions. In the full scale of the world - in the context of civilisation as discussed in the article - there is too much variation among the people; especially among the mix of cultures there are now in every country, so it can become very difficult to come to agreements. This is because if you are not careful what you are trying to say will make no sense to anyone.

One effective way is to identify who thinks how, allow themselves to organise into groups based on how the ratios of reason or emotions, then address each group in a manner that that group would understand.
