Yes, you're required to accurately list all inventors or that's cause to invalidate the patent.

Check out how many patents Steve Jobs has. I suspect that he wanted to be listed as an inventor on anything that he was directly involved with, even only slightly.

Many patents are owned by the inventor(s).

This doesn't say what minio actually is. It also says the benchmark cost $1000 to run. Also since this is terabits it is about 120 gigabytes per second using 256 drives.
That's a very important point: Firefox missed the boat on mobile and Mozilla would need a miracle to increase its marketshare.

I personally use Brave on mobile which is great since it natively blocks ads and allow me to use Youtube with the screen turned off. On desktop I use Firefox since I prefer it's interface and the container feature.

Comments are often a code smell indicating that the code was written in a hard to understand way. On a top notch code base - the kind that almost nobody works on - they probably should be sparse and mostly unnecessary.

Moreover, when a lot of people are asked to comment they write stuff like "this function does x to y" when the function is named "x_to_y". No shit sherlock comments I call them.

I'd always prefer to have good comments, but I've worked on a lot of code bases where no comments wouldn't really have been any worse.

Well, panics should not be used for recoverable error handing in Rust. There's no guarantee turning off panics in favor of aborts wont break the assumptions of some library. That library should probably break tho, since as you said, panics aren't meant to emulate application logic exceptions.

use std::panic::catch_unwind;

fn main() {
let err = catch_unwind(|| { panic!("B") });
println!("Look ma, recoverable error handing! {:?}", err);
}
This incident occurred before crypto mining was a thing many knew about. He thought that since the machine was unused overnight that someone should get some benefit from it.
> Wasn't that "10,000 hrs of practice to master anything" paper discredited?

No, AFAIK it literally never existed. That was, as I recall, a popular misinterpretation of what was itself an unwarranted generalization made by Malcolm Gladwell based on a paper with much more limited scope and conclusions.

> This one sounds very similar in trying to quantify a very chaotic and qualitative process.

The actual direct conclusion—that this error rate is optimal for a variety of machine-learning processes—does not seem to ha r the problem you describe. The suggestion in the paper that this extends to “biologically plausible” neural networks that may model animal learning also does not seem problematic in the way you describe. The news article’s claim that this is a finding of a sweet spot for human learning is, while it is a possibility suggested by the paper, simply unwarranted as a conclusion.

It's certainly plausible that a quantifiable sweet spot of this type exists for some kinds of human learning at the optimization of effectiveness in a curriculum that can be dynamically scaled to individual learners could effectively be guided by it, but there is not a strong reason without actually testing in concrete human learning scenarios to believe that the particular number here is a guide to that.

I use it as a dev tool. Mostly to test installers.

For example: Start with a clean slate, install the software, check that it works correctly, check what it actually installed and what it did to the registry, uninstall, check that everything is gone. It something goes wrong, scrap the sandbox and try again. Do it again with an older version installed in another sandbox, etc...

Maybe I can do it with a VM, but Sandboxie is very convenient and lightweight.
Deactivate pre-loading of websites the website you look at links too and then talk again. Chrome uses all kind of tricks to trick you into thinking it is the faster rendering browser. Deactivate the gimmicks and then look at a comparison. There wont be much difference there. Also I'd rather have my browser have a low memory footprint, than using GBs of more RAM, just to load a page a fraction of a second faster.

Still the whole argument is laughable, because even if I saw every page a second or 2 slower, it would still be worth it, if it protects my rights online.

Also using more memory just because I have more, to the degree of using all of it, is not a good strategy. Sorry, I run other applications too, the browser is not the only contender for my RAM. I highly doubt that Firefox does anything half as aggressive with regard to memory as Chrome does, in order to "impress the user" with their speed. As I said, sitting on over 200 tabs and only using 33% of my RAM, while other applications are running too. It is not simply eating up all my memory, as I have seen Chrome doing with loads of tabs.
Brave is great, especially on mobile. Being able to use Youtube in the background, with the phone screen off, is a killer feature.

We'll need to make these easier to find, but there are a few examples mixed in with the Readme and more at https://paged.design
Fabric-wise, PCIe 4.0 offers 16 Gbit/s per lane, so a single PCIe x16 device would have 256 Gbit/s of bandwidth available (in each direction), and a single server could reach 1 Tbit/s with four NVMe devices on four PCIe slots. There is the overhead of 128b-132b encoding to be considered, but that's minimal (3%). There is also the overhead of PCIe packets to consider, but if the NVMe device supports large maximum payload sizes (1kB+) it should be minimal.

Are there PCIe 4.0 x16 NVMe devices commercially available?

What happens if you include the time you spent drilling yourself with Anki? Are you still ahead?
Yeah... their website is full of broken links and there doesn't seem to be anything published about this in the last SEVEN years since the initial recall.

Edit: A 2017 "SDS" is lost in the source code of their website and it says nothing about infants:

https://web.archive.org/web/20191110194345/https://www.simpl...
3,000 words is barely a start! You need much more vocabulary than that to get to a very functional level. You absolutely don't need Anki to learn that many words (which your comment originally claimed before you edited it). FWIW, I still couldn't comfortably read Chinese when I had 3,000 characters and closer to 25,000 words under my belt.

That said, I think using Anki as a scaffold for the first few thousand words is reasonable. After even 1k, I'd advise getting graded readers which are easy enough for you that you know 97-99% of the words and read 50 pages a day. It will probably take you under 90 minutes since it's easy enough that you're actually reading instead of decoding.

Progress might seem slow at first, but you'll be building a solid base with all that input and reinforcing previously learned words in many, many contexts. You'll also be getting collocations, history, shared cultural beliefs, etc. As your vocabulary builds, you can also start listening to radio or podcasts. They're less forgiving due to moving at a set speed but will do wonders for your conversational abilities.

Even when it comes to word definitions, as you pointed out, it's not a 1-to-1 mapping. The Korean word for "nose", for example, can be used for pigs and elephants as well as for humans. In English, you couldn't do that—pigs have snouts and elephants have trunks. Similarly, in English, if you talk about "black eyes" it means something completely different (bruising) than it does in Korean (dark brown eyes).

This is stuff you don't pick up from flashcards, unless you make super elaborate flashcards (which take more time than reading)!

This pops up every few years, and I generally have the same counterarguments to RCA's detractors.

RCA isn't about placing blame, and just changing the name to Faultless Learning Review doesn't change the fact you're doing Root Cause Analysis.

The idea in all cases is to enumerate the contributory factors in the breakage, and avoid doing that again.

It isn't some scapegoat mechanism; any business has turnover, so the same mistakes are likely to occur over and over again until the principle actors have the requisite experience ingrained in their day to day. Process helps; but process alone doesn't make success. It's when process and those implementing it are on the same page that the rubber meets the road. That getting on the same page is the entire reason for RCA.

As someone who has been the primary investigator on outages or complications for a handful of companies; very rarely does the "who" involved with an RCA even come into the matter. Everyone just wants the problem not to happen again more than anything else.

Every person sees the world through their own way. Therefore there is no way to see it as it truly is. The sum of the parts can never equal the whole, no matter how much effort is done to reduce bias.

While Anki is great, I don’t see much value in using it for programming. I personally use it for equations and find it works very well. While remembering an equation is super useful, remembering APIs and stuff just isn’t. Intellisense solves the problem and even if you don’t have access to it (Python cough cough), it’s not that big a deal to just look up the documentation. Looking up the “documentation” (hah!) for equations is actually genuinely time consuming.
DNSSEC Is Unnecessary
The single most important undervalued skill for any programmer, is Domain Modeling. It's an absolute shame it isn't a requirement to get a CS degree.

Few things have more of a 3x effect on your code, than poorly chosen data modeling, or incorrect domain relationships. Your domain modeling determines in a large part, the amount of incidental complexity in your codebase.

When done incorrectly, it's what causes the painful - "Yeah we can't account for that feature without a lot of work. It's not how the system is designed." Which means either a re-write of large portions of the core domain, and all the fall out / impact of every dependency on it; or, the need to wrap code in hacky patch that works for this feature, but falls apart for the coming related feature because it wasn't designed the right way.

I'm not a lawyer, but my understanding is that the people named on the patent have to be the actual inventors. A lawyer explained to me that you have to be the inventor behind at least one of the claims. Of course that practice can be abused.

A way to protect your inventorship is to write down what you think you invented, and submit it in writing to your employer. I work for a F500, and we have an official process for this, with a reward. It benefits the company to get patent-able ideas documented.

I did a tour of duty as a CPU logic designer at Amdahl. The POO was my bible, although it was the 370 version in those days. The thing to remember about ISA specs like this is that they are works of fiction. The contract goes: “If you programmers are willing to pretend this is how the machines work, we will build a machine that pretends to work that way.” That concept is the key innovation of the 360 system architecture, attributed to Gene Amdahl.

After leaving Amdahl I worked for a while in Electronic Design Automation. One year at the IEEE Design Automation Conference I met a random person at a happy hour who was an ex-IBM OS programmer. He said that he once spent a year rewriting a part of the OS to use a particular instruction entirely because “Amdahl didn’t have it yet.” Says I: “When was this?” ... “Ah, at that time part of my job was adding that instruction to the Amdahl CPU.”

The conversation felt like an old Mad Magazine “Spy vs. Spy” cartoon. We were both bemused.

For folks who appreciated either reading or viewing Hidden Figures and are interested in women in science history, you should keep an eye open for the play: The Women who Mapped the Stars. It's about the investigation of the cepheid variables which basically led to creating a yardstick for stellar distances.

(There's also a couple plays about one of the women in particular, Henrietta Swan Leavitt, although those are probably harder to come by.)

Added: Another very good play in this vein is Photograph 51 (centered on Rosalind Franklin).

In youth soccer, heading the ball has been eliminated due to concerns about brain injury.

It seems like the more we study the effect of many small impacts, the worse we realize it is. Eventually I think touching the ball with your head should be the same penalty as touching it with your hand.

I'm not sure how you fix football though. I'm just glad my kinds never wanted to play it.
Well as far as a know there’s no commercial neural implant that will autocomplete forgotten words when speaking. When programming, it’s really not necessary to remember much of anything. It doesn’t hurt of course, but it’s not exactly what differentiates a star programmer from a mediocre one.
Worth mentioning, if you can't afford an accountant (or if it is painful) then you're not charging enough and the business is not really sustainable.

It's unfortunate because it appears that America is also losing its tolerance for speech about racial injustice, responding with fatigue and incredulity.

It's a shame that people get taught the opposite of that approach. Typical academic OO ends up completely obscurring the data you have and how you transform it in to what you want.

Many times when you ask a student to think in those terms they don't even understand the concept of putting all your data in a data structure that is meant to access it instead of being muddied together with little bits of execution that may or may not accomplish something.
It is perfectly acceptable and proper to congratulate a minority group who is not only advancing the art, but doing so with the additional hardship of being a minority. Not only are they advancing the art, same as many others, but they are in a way, being a pioneer and setting an example that will undoubtedly encourage many more people like themselves to join in and contribute.

To respond with "congratulations to everyone" is like responding to "black lives matter" with "all lives matter". Which either intentionally or not, diminishes the point trying to be made.

If you watched Hidden Figures or read the book, I think you would understand why they deserve a little bit of extra congratulations.

An interview needs to determine success in the role initially and as it changes. As such, it should simulate the daily activities so as to support effective hypothesis about that success. While the distillation of years of engineering is the design and implementation of systems and the specific and most difficult algorithms that will be written during those years we never do that work in fast forward. In respect to everyone's time we limit interview lengths. The delta between what would be ideal and what we can afford (or are willing to invest) is where the high stakes and unhealthy game environment we've created forms. It is truly a hard problem.
> You absolutely don't need Anki to learn that many.

No, but anki makes retaining them much easier. There are a great many words that I've learned that come up infrequently enough that it's easy to start forgetting them. In fact, a great many of the more niche words that I learn through tv shows, etc, are easy to forget unless I'm retaining them via anki.

> After even 1k, I'd advise getting graded readers

Yes, but there aren't really any for Korean. Also 1k is really nothing at all, almost all content at that point will be excruciating to read.

I am not arguing to use anki -alone-. Obviously one needs to be reading material as well, but that's tertiary to this discussion on anki and its usecases.
