> Apple were already well behind in performance at the point x86_64 came out, due to them being stuck on POWER.

The issue was chipsets and peripherals, not POWER performance (which generally always beat x86 at the same point).

The problem was that the entire ecosystem was built around communicating with an x86. So, you couldn't get a Northbridge or Southbridge equivalent that was even remotely close in performance or power consumption to those in x86 space.

Unless you decided that you were going to take on everything in chip design, you couldn't compete. And Apple didn't decide to take on everything until Intel told Apple to pound sand and pissed Jobs off.
Maybe I’m a freak but I always knew where I was going. I could tell you the street names and guide you turn by turn. What I lacked was knowledge of the side streets I’d never been taken down, or how to get from A to C without going through B. Or how to get somewhere new. But I would always pay attention to where we were going (partially because I get car sick); and I’d look down side streets and wonder where they went or what was down that way. And when I would move into a new neighborhood I would explore all the streets. (I still did that when I moved into my new house five years ago.)

Once I got my license it was almost like explosions going off in my head as I turned a corner and realized A is only a couple blocks from C, or Smith Road turns into Johnson Road and that whole thing is connected somehow.
They should also pay taxes.

But seriously - ignoring that they explicitly stated they would host objectively false political ads - how do you choose to say FB should be punished for hurting democracy, when they are in effect duplicating the Fox News business model of pushing hyperbolic nonsense and not showing a distinction between opinion/entertainment pieces and actual news.

The "engagement" is clearly profitable, and clearly has just as much, if not more, political power.
Aren't we all scientists?
It is easy to see why having a degree is not popular here in this forum. It is probably acting as a hard barrier for some to get a job. Thus people don't like it.

Per my experience working in a big tech shop, most of the engineer-kind co-workers DO have a STEM degree. I don't think a CS degree is required in that sense, as long as the background is relevant. Only one of them came with no college degree, but he fits in well and decent in his work.

Hiring is difficult as always, degree is indeed a powerful indicator. When the amount of candidates is not that tight, and the hiring process is increasingly streamlined, its importance will only grow.
I must be the exception to this rule. As a kid I always preferred 'shotgun' and/or the window seat so I could look out and see where I was going. I think I must have been paranoid to always know the safe route back to 'base' (school, home, etc).

This also applied to when my parents took me to things like swimming lessons (in a suburb over).
My first though was risk to Earth. Those things move fast and give you much less time to plan/build/launch.
We need to tackle environmental issues at the local level too. Small cities are homogeneous and easier to deal with
That in and by itself is hair-raising! It's absolutely, obviously, crassly obvious that Ui only concern was getting the telemetry out and everything else (like failure modes) was an afterthought. It paints a picture the crowd here are probably very familiar with: Upper mgmt needs this feature a month ago, go implement it asap. No PM, no architect, no nothing, just C-level straight to a dev...
Just tried it on _Meet The Sniper_.
Disappointment :-(

[This was an unreasonable test, and it did really well considering the likely training set. I bet it could do much better with better data. Still... man, I was so hoping for magic.]
It's not that it is incompatible, it's just different, mostly offset by an hour or two.

Somewhere people tend to start at 6,7,8,9 (say 20%, 30%, 40%, 10%), other place most people start at 9. Somewhere shops are open before 8, somewhere only after 10. In some shops close at about 18, in others most are open till 20 even 21-22. Some places have a siesta around noon.

Ok, maybe a bit much, but most things only affect you if you are there and you quickly find out, and others are just a 1-2h offset, so other companies may not be open during start or end of shifts. Not more of an inconvenience than standard flex time.

There are certainly classes that cover networking.

IP, TCP, DNS, and HTTP were covered in classes I took.

As for actually on the wire. I haven't studied anything about how ethernet actually works. I assume its kindof like i2c, but I don't know more than that and haven't needed to.
> but there also are no penalties for blocking Internet access to the device, dropping traffic to this host, and/or blocking it via DNS.

That's a nice network you have there. It'd be a shame if someone broke it because they couldn't phone home.
Your suggestion makes a lot of good sense. Cookies aren't the real threat though. Surely cookies are used for both wanted and unwanted tracking. Passive tracking however (fingerprinting of any form) will remain the threat we can't block and we won't know is happening.

If we add a mechanism to allow the OS to handle cookies, bypassing possible untrusty browser vendors. We won't solve much and create a false expectation, while (arguably) break more than we fix.

This doesn't mean we shouldn't, but if a method is found, it should include a significantly more comprehensive form of anonymity.

Adults too. As a young adult I was amazed at my friend's ability to know where we were in the city. When I started driving I learned fast.

It's similar to learning something by either being told or by coming to the conclusion yourself. The latter feels much more solid.
Strong statement, but I agree that the Win95 scrollbar looks "right". Probably just an artifact of using Win95 during our formative years.
I just built a new PC with Ryzen 3700x. I use it mostly for music production. Fantastic performance so far. 10 instances of Serum and my CPU doesn't even cross 15%.

Moreover, I feel like I'm buying for the future with Ryzen. Intel is going to change its architecture after the 10th gen. Buying a 9th gen Intel right now seems like throwing money at a dead end

I really disagree. It sounds... awful. On par with other approaches, sure, but the main vocals sounds like a case study in digital artifacts and the accompaniment sounds like there's a filter automated over the track.

Far from useful.
The most I had was about 50 dependencies (I guess that’s the metric that matters), not huge but not trivial. It took about 15 secs at most to resolve dependencies, and usually much less; less than a minute a week overall.

Whereas I’ve spent a lot more time getting pip packages to install, update, etc before switching to conda.

Conda never broke anything for me - it did downgrade after upstream broke things. Pip, on the other hand, broke things more than once.

There is a patent for Melodyne that describes looking for harmonics vs time in FFTs, then heuristics for deciding which belong to one note and where it starts and ends, then assigning some of the resudual energy (e.g. noisy onset) to each note.
Won't your example trigger an infinite loop of celsius/fahrenheit conversions? Especially if the floating point value is slightly off.

I think your example is exactly why stuff like React won vs data-binding frameworks. With declarative programming, you just have a single source of truth that you change once (you can arbitrarily pick celsius or fahrenheit or even kelvin) and let the framework figure out what needs to be diff-ed in the derived views.
That is a scenario that actually is good - because then at least you can know what goes out to the mothership. Otherwise, well, who knows. Maybe it's crash reports, maybe it's the names of your fetishes.

I kindof wonder if this isn't one of those things that falls flat because it's a toy example, and anything but the most direct approach is going to look clumsy and over-engineered.

I've spent a bunch of time working in Elm, though I hadn't used it in anger before they dropped the FRP stuff.

My experience with post-frp Elm is that:

* It seems really elegant on small examples
* When you start working with larger codebases, and you have some resuable UI elements you want to build, you end up writing a lot of "routing" code to shunt messages to sub-components. Conventional wisdom in the community is to try to keep app structure as "flat" as you can to avoid this, but I've not seen a codebase of meaningful size where this doesn't happen enough to be annoying.

I have a gut instinct that "real FRP" might shine a bit more at this point; it seems like it would make wiring together different bits of the UI easier.

I lived in Laos back in the late 70's/early 80's. One of the big treats we got was 30 minutes of phone call time back home to the states on Christmas. Barring that, it was 3-month-round-trip mail via diplomatic pouch.

Now I can hop on to any number of free webcams in Vientiane and check out the happenings where I used to live just for the heck of it, no questions asked, no money required.

Don't mess with the generated config file on the EdgeRouter, it'll just get replaced next time you reconfigure it or a firmware update is applied. Just add the following to the config.

set service dns forwarding options server=/trace.svc.ui.com/

Or if you have dns forwarding using the system resolver you could also just add it to the hosts file via something similar to this.

set system static-host-mapping host-name trace.svc.ui.com inet 0.0.0.0
I am not sure how to evaluate this. I’m about to buy a quite a lot of UI hardware in January. If this is it, they implement an opt-in/opt-out feature I’ll definitely see it as positive (that they listened to the community), it not—the. I don’t know what to think.

The question of hardware for my January setup, which I thought settled, just got reopened again.

Exposure to the CS curriculum at least gives you a leg up in asking questions and working out the shape of your lack-of-knowledge.

Like, knowing that automata and complexity theory exists and remembering roughly how it works means that if something that needs that comes up, at least you have a sense of what you forgot about it.

For instance, having taken a database class where we worked in the relational algebra has helped me fluently write okay SQL even if I couldn't write out a sentence in the relational algebra to save my life.

I don't like it when different websites look very different. So in my primary browser (Firefox), I only allow sites to use my preferred sans-serif, serif, and monospace fonts.

I noticed that all occurrences of AMD are lowercase, so I noticed that it's set to lowercase. Opening in Chrome, I noticed that there was a giant banner on the bottom covering 1/3 of my page, and another on the top which closed when I closed the bottom banner.

I bet we could help people regain some of this ability via video games. A lot of time people are fast traveling or following from point A to B on a minimap without needs to understand how landmarks and directions relate to your position. Anecdotally, I've found people like myself who prefer GPS when traveling to always keep the map pointed north have a better understanding of how and where to get from place to place because landmarks are also tied to a sense of cardinal direction. Many games offer this as an option as well. Despite growing up in a 900-person town, memorizing the Los Santos and San Fiero in GTA: San Andreas made city navigation later in life something I had already trained my brain on.

My undergrad had a good computer architecture class, but it didn't cover networking. That's definitely a pretty big hole in my knowledge. A networking class would absolutely have slotted in quite easily to the CS curriculum.
what this study is missing is that a lot of non-CNR work is going to be automated away. there is a likely future in which CNR work is the only work left for humans to do.

if the conclusion of the study is even valid, then it only supports a trend that has been going on for a long time: we all move into cities, and living in the countryside may become a thing of the past.

this is not necessarily a good future as far as living conditions are concerned, but this is the current trend we are seeing everywhere.

silicon valley is a case in point. the reason why the startup ecosystem thrives there is because all resources needed are in one place.

what we really need to learn from this is how to enable this kind of collaboration without all needing to live and work in close proximity.
For every user like you who is using unique, securely generated passwords in a manager, there’s 10,000 people who are using the same, easily compromised password on every website they’re registered on.

You’re not the target audience for these features - not only are you the tiny minority, but no matter what system they give you, you’ll find a way to interact with it safely, so for that interaction you simply don’t matter.

And choosing to do this kind of login pushes blame for authentication issues away from that company, and onto the federated provider, who presumably has legions of security researchers to make sure they’re doing things safely.

Flipside: worker's noncompensated contributions to employment aren't free.

Ulitmately, labour benefits the business, and surplus accrues to the business. Changing costs mean a shifting balance of inputs (labour, capital). But if your firm isn't profitable whilst paying a living and sustaining wage to its workers, then what exists isn't a profit-making enterprise, but a charity, on behalf of the owners, subsidised by the workers.

There's no law that says a non-viable business has a right to continue operations.
I think any degree will satisfy most of those, not just a CS degree.
It would be interesting to have them study brain functions during the so called “transcendental” meditation. The school claims that it were a third state of brain activity, somewhere inbetween of sleeping and being conscious. In my experience it also may have the cleaning effect.

The person in charge could have the same philosophy as you, and after seeing several reports of non-progress, invite some other people with alternative ideas to work in tandem.

At a certain point it would be obvious which design was the better one, and then the group who was working on the design that proved inferior could then join the more successful group and double their productivity.

Yep. For me, the biggest reason I think a degree is necessary is because it is comprehensive. Self taught people are going to inevitably have multiple holes in their understanding. And worst of all, they will be ignorant of where those holes lie and how large they are.

Argh, google maps appears to have pushed an update which seems to remove the ability to use directions in this mode. The driving mode to me is absolutely useless as it only shows me which direction i am heading, not where i am going or how i will get there.
The problem is not incentives,
but culture. From a view purely based on incentives, there is no reason to support your grandmother, for example, rather than kicking her out in the cold. Only our culture stops us to treat our closest family members this way.

If we expanded what we thought of as “us” from just the individual unit, however small that might be (the familial unit for some, just the individual self for others) to to include the entire country and government running it, there is no telling what we could achieve.
