The biggest change I've seen is that people are using OpenJDK itself (rather than Oracle's official distribution) a lot more, not only from the official OpenJDK distribution, but also the new Amazon's Corretto version, Azul's Zulu (the one I use at work, which has been backporting lots of security improvements to Java 8, which is very useful!), RedHat's OpenJDK, and even AdoptOpenJDK, all of which are completely free and open source...

If you want to quickly and easily switch between distributions, I highly recommend https://sdkman.io/ - it lets you install and use any of the above mentioned JVMs with a simple CLI... e.g. `sdk use 13.0.1.j9-adpt` or `sdk use java 8.0.232-zulu`.

I would guess that Oracle's JVM popularity has gone down from around 75% of Java users, to something like 20% after the changes, even though I don't actually have the numbers.
It will be, yes, and the U87 with a vector unit will obviously be a bit bigger. There are many applications where a vector unit is unnecessary silicon that adds nothing but cost and power consumption.
If you're going to try and call someone out, you have to be held to the same regard.

GP may be a bit verbose and dramatic, but the parallels between the Inquisition (a form of censorship) and current events happening in the same geographical location seem to be quite appropriate. He also brings up China besides Spain, so maybe you read too much into the country-specific reference with regards to the original topic.

I think it's a valid warning. All humans equally deserve knowledge, and as long as we have centralized systems then some humans will attempt to censor others. Simple as that.
compared to the best known subscription success stories -- the NYT, WP -- it certainly seems significantly smaller. but i agree, that comparison isn't very valid, it's certainly a heavyweight amongst magazines.
Frustratingly there's no sources linked to, but it looks like this story was placed with several sites (eg Verge, Independent, BBC, Yahoo Entertainment) and possibly embargoed until 6pm (given the similarity in publication times for a story that would take more than a few minutes to edit!)
Positions within lists aren't named. Sure you can do:

((foo . (bar . baz))
(foo . (bar . baz))
(foo . (bar . baz))
(foo . (bar . baz)))

And say "index all the foos", but you're mixing the structure and the content, in a way that JSON and XML explicitly separate.
"Old" doesn't mean "Large".

However, in this case you're right. They have 1.6 million subscribers, 50% are digital.

Interestingly, a 50% digital rate probably puts them far above all of the other "Old" periodicals.
The wind problem is physics. You can't fix that with software. At 250g this thing is a leaf.

I've flown P4P, Mavic Pro, and Spark. Only the big, heavy P4P was stable in strong winds. Even with the larger cross-section the bigger motors in the P4P make a remarkable difference.
There isn't a separation issue in Quebec... At this moment. The BQ has given up on secession, and instead doubled-down on islamophobia, to great success at the polls.
>EDIT: Oh, and instead of CDATA, we now simply base64 encode arbitrary objects and pack them into JSON encoded strings. Is this really an improvement?

I think that's more of an indictment of HTTP than XML or JSON. Maybe we should have a better standard for exchanging non-textual data with websites.
Fortran from the 1960s is still supported. Almost all modern Fortran compilers support syntax that was deprecated decades ago.
Yes but for a shirt? Capturing a shirt shoplifter is worth the same effort and potential damage to innocents as a murderer? Or a bank robber? Or an organized group hitting electronics retailers? If someone refuses to pay a parking ticket, how much collateral damage is worth getting them to pay their ticket?

Also I feel your comment may be implying that this sort of hyper aggressive enforcement is the only thing keeping crime down - I would suspect that crime at the level of shoplifting a shirt is more often due to need and desperation than to purely malicious intent, and while hyper aggressive enforcement may have some deterrent effect those crimes would probably be better resolved by trying to eliminate the core issues driving them in the first place.
I'll admit I get a bit more worked up about companies colluding with governments to suppress speech; the potential harm is much higher. If Github had themselves taken a stance that the contents of the censored repository were unethical and independently chosen to take it down, I'd have much less of a problem with them.

Is the Python 2->3 process and decisions surrounding it an important part of Guido van Rossum's long career? Sure. Does the fact that Dropbox, quite predictably and like all businesses with large Python codebases has also had to deal with that transition add anything interesting, unexpected, "curiosity-gratifying" to a story about his retirement? I'm not seeing it. It's a long thread of stridently off-topic comments most of which aren't even about Python, never mind the dude's retirement.
Sure, it's unlikely someone will be totally clueless who can talk the ins and outs of a project. Let me put it another way. If we put all the engineers I've managed/lead throughout the years through your interview process, you would probably filter out the one or two who were bad, but you would not always select the strongest engineers. You'd select the strong engineers who were confident, gregarious, and articulate, and leave out the ones who are humble, shy, embarassed by their accents, not used to bragging about themselves or articulating the details of past projects.

Talking about those things is a learned skill just like writing on a whitebaord. Hence why good companeis that do whiteboarding interviews also have traditional rounds. You want to give candidates multiple avenues to shine.
There's absolutely valuable trade secrets even at 28nm. For starters, a fab's work at 28nm would absolutely inform descions on newer nodes. Additionally, the older nodes don't just shut down their lines, but are dependent on continued use to pay off their massive capital investment. They're still competing with the other 28nm fabs.
I had my 1st experience with a Mavic Air this past weekend. It is an amazing piece of tech and the vids are beautiful. I was unaware, however, of it's online requirement. It operated fine where no cell signal exists, so there must be a way to dark comm it. However, I wouldn't give them $ in the first place with such a requirement.

Too bad, I was considering one in lieu of a full frame dslr. Looks like hi-res, poorly shot photos are back on the menu.
No. That restriction is not based on weight or size.
No (but I can see why you ask). It is my simple attempt to share info that helps people. I have put a lot of work into it, and each part seemed relevant to the discussion (which is what motivated me). It is easier than posting the notes every time. Again, there is nothing for sale there.
If you look at the material and have suggestions for how best to answer questions without pasting long paragraphs I have already put elsewhere, or other suggestions, I appreciate that.
Would love to see the same for Athens. An amazing place but popular culture doesn’t reflect how profoundly alien their culture was: more of an honor-killing kind of place rather than some paradise of erudition.

This is not true, there are niches where Fortran is still dominant for new code.

Also for BLAS, the underlying code is usually no longer Fortran.

When Edward Snowden “revealed” that the NSA had been spying on us for decades, I was shocked that anybody was shocked. After all, we’ve known that for a long time - people had been SAYING that for a long time. I realized after the Snowden leaks that most people actually thought they were joking when they said that the NSA was spying on all of us: “har har, as if that could ever happen”. It’s become increasingly clear that I’m not just being paranoid when I believe that they _are_ spying on us, and disposing of the ones who become a problem.

Maybe not focusing on national symbols is a core tenet, as is disallowing violence in media out of fear it could awaken some inner monster. I do not share this view and given the realities of the modern world, people will come in contact with it anyway and it would help to be prepared. Which I think the German education system provides for that matter.

But with all things learned, "our identity" certainly has a comparably low priority.

I cannot tell you who is in the right in Spain, but I am certainly cautious not to justify a crackdown on content by authorities.

And while it is true that symbols associated with the nazi-era are prosecuted, I do believe that the goal is immediately lost if used as a justification to restrict freedom of expression, which this immediate case could constitute. Maybe not, but I like to defer judgement.

With a perspective on current world politics I have the impression that the German solution is fairly inadequate. That is why I do question it.
I could imagine it being interesting for VMs and DBs too. Imagine a VM whose memory "looks" like virtual memory but under the hood is transparently persisted between invocations.
If you are like me, you might have this near constant need to feel productive throughout the day.

Sitting outside with a notebook and writing poetry or ideas or just stream of consciousness is a pretty great way to soothe this desire for achievement and forward progress while being outside and away from the computer.

It's not that. It's a culture of cohesion and taking caring for one another. Compared to US which seems terribly individualistic, which further amplifies these traits in people producing selfish assholes whose selfishness is net-negative to everyone, Finnish people are more concerned with the common good which permeates through the whole society. The social programs, low-crime rate (police in Finland are well-liked) and good education for everyone are by-products of this mindset which strengthen it even more.

It's difficult or even impossible to translate that into different country, but I'd argue each bit has an effect over long period of time. US has become so antagonistic over the years it's hard to see it ever growing out of it. And in smaller scale of course, US must have similar kind of environments. But the cultural norms are such that it's not really a joint goal of the people to have it for everyone. It's a behavioural dilemma since in order to create such culture it has to reciprocated and seen as the "better way", but that takes generations to happen. By believing it can't be done it's kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy. Our egos are too fixated on our own habits that learning to look life at different perspective is made impossible. And when happiness can be directly measured in how many dollars you have, who could convince people otherwise.
Maybe an alternative could have been to make one page with all those on it, so just one link (but I was getting tired). :)

You can't stop the trade of digital goods when people can encrypt their electronic communication.

As value becomes storable as purely digital information, the choice is either the status quo, where encryption makes money laundering trivial, or prohibiting public access to strong encryption, and instituting a Big Brother surveillance state without privacy.
Most AArch64 cores still have to support AArch32 modes, and so aren't allowed to take advantage of those optimizations.
The A72 supports at least three completely different instruction sets (A64, A32, T32), which has a cost. You could make a much sleeker A64-only CPU core as Apple, Cavium, and Fujitsu do, though it's still not going to be as sleek as RISC-V.

Interacting with a PCIe bus does not seem "mundane" to me. Analog electronics is hard, and, just as importantly, process-specific (and the details of any one process are generally kept strictly confidential to the fab, with tightly-binding NDAs). Now, when it comes to pure digital logic I agree, but that's also where open hardware (with meaningful contributions by SiFive themselves) has been most successful.
That is not a conflict of interest in any way, shape, or form.

I feel there's a subtle difference between 'pushing thoughts out' or 'ignoring' them, and 'observing them (impassively)', which is what I've been taught when it comes to mindfulness/meditation/zen.

When I meditate, my impression is not that I avoid or push away thoughts. Rather, it's as if I observe them from a distance, and inspect them, smell them, turn them over, etc.

In many cases, true, these thoughts sort of dissolve of 'disappear'. But in other cases they merely change a bit in quality, or they remain with some context added.

Generally speaking it's not so much about avoiding, replaying, or analyzing memories (and strengthening retention), as it is about developing and practicing discernment as to what thoughts are worth replaying, analyzing or avoiding.

Crazy to think that our justice system is so dysfunctional we can hardly distinguish between malice and incompetence. Conspiracies aside, such dysfunction provide opportunities to those who oversee to just "let it happen".

About 30% for yearly and 70% for monthly. I'm still experimenting with the pricing plans. I only started the monthly plan recently. I had a quarterly plan in its place before which don't seem that common with other SaaS products.

I found quarterly appealing in that it probably reduces billing related support requests, the higher price tends to attract customer that are less demanding in terms of product support, and customers aren't pressured to evaluate if they want to continue their subscription so often.

Using a bacteria-derived antiviral mechanism against our own viruses sounds obvious to anyone who hears about CRISPR's origins for the first time, I'd hasard.

A less-explored idea is the one I first got from the title: would oversuse of CRISPR lead to "superbugs" issues like we had with antibiotics? This sounds like something interesting to work on, even before starting their large-scale use.

I guess a lot could go wrong if viruses started to become resistant to bacteria's immune system mechanisms.

It's true that we do know more, but that's reflected in the even more ambitious promises being made. SpaceX will almost certainly improve greatly on the Shuttle, but will also just as certainly fail to live up to the projections being made for it now, before the first flight. And my guess is that it will fall short by quite a bit, these are pretty big claims being made. I think the Starship will become obsolete, for instance, before it ever gets to a flight rate of once per day.
By what metric were they important?

Economic output?

Influence abroad?

Cultural contributions?

Trade hub?

A cultural impact that lasts to today that makes them important in retrospect?

A city-state conquering 21,000 square kilometers (roughly the same area of Clark County, NV, chosen purposefully for my example) of olive groves and poor towns on a peninsula that is almost completely surrounded by sea with no other major players doesn't make one important, in the big picture.

I mean, I know philosophers liked to wax... philosophically... about them, like they were the lost city of Atlantis or something, centuries after the slow and creaky absorption of the hellish nightmare that was a declining Sparta into their neighbors, but so what?

I don't know what your gun stuff was about.

edit: I can imagine all of the rulers of the ACTUALLY relevant kingdoms and empires that surrounded Sparta looking at a map that was all colored in except for Sparta and saying to their generals:

"You know what? We'll give it a try but even if we do conquer Sparta all we'll get is a bunch of olives, goats, and a whole bunch of whacked-out weirdos with no gold, no navy, and a lot of baggage. So commit but don't 'Commit' and if we lose we'll just wait them out and color in the entire map later when they inevitably collapse."
Have we gotten confirmation yet on whether this is a BOOM core or not? It certainly feels like it is
IIRC they also faked and sent out incorrect blood test results for many, many patients.
Sparta is fetishized because human societies worship glory, courage and sacrifice, and that's what their myth is all about. As it's mythological, we tend to obscure the details we don't like and embellish the ones we do.
Generally, it's so that the national polity can invest in specific regional polities without fear that they'll take the money and run, or abscond with strategic assets critical to the development of other regions.

It's basically a checklist item for a negotiated diplomatic withdrawal, to avoid triggering a knee-jerk military suppression of the unlawful rebellion. If "the rest of the country" does not agree, and won't negotiate, secession is still possible, it just means winning the civil war.
Money. Money. Yes. Walk up and hand it to them. Money.
Lots of people say Java but of the more fancy and convenient (and correct, cough I’m obviously biased cough) ways to do development, I can’t stress enough how amazing it has been to watch release after release of Clojure consisting of mostly trivial changes or library additions.

The language is arguably complete and any syntactic changes you could wish upon yourself are doable in form of a library because it’s a lisp.

And all that piggybacks on top of already quite stable java ecosystem.

Can’t get much better than that.

Poems by themselves are nothing more than clever phrases. When they connect with important moments or emotions they become much more powerful.

I recall memorizing and composing poems with my mother on long car trips growing up. Some of which I can still recite. I remember revising a poem for school, sat on the toilet, next to a shower on full hot, because the heater was out and the house was freezing cold. Birds chirping in the morning remind me of the line "And smale fowles maken melodye that slepen al the night with open ye" in the voice of a memorable teacher who predicted the only thing I'd recall from his class was the intro to the Canterbury Tales.

Poetry is a lot like idiomatic code. It looks right. It feels right. There's a thrill when a terse expression efficiently accomplishes exactly what's needed.
