This is why mall cops and speeding fine issuers should not be armed like they are about to raid an organised crime hiding spot. It's astounding that some countries allow random security guards to have guns. Unless you are highly trained and entering a very dangerous situation you should not have any guns at all.

> I'm running Debian on all my servers, but on the desktop I'm in love wit the rolling release model.

If you run it on you servers then you know that Debian supports many rolling releases. Experimental, unstable, testing, stable + backports, stable + updates, stable. The difference is how fast they change, ranging from "in front of the bleeding edge" for Experimental to "for the very patient" for stable (and beyond).

This seems to be how Debian does things. There aren't separate projects like kubuntu, lubuntu and whatever. There is just Debian, plus what seems like every Window manager under the sun packaged as "task-kde-desktop" or whatever. And so there isn't the a Debian rolling project. There is just "Debian testing" or whatever, which is well, Debian, but the snapshot is taken at difference times and frequencies of Debian's life cycle.
FWIW, I've gone the opposite. As I'm aging I find myself caring less about myself and more about how we treat the worst off. Decades ago I described myself as a moderate, today I label myself a socialist. I make hundreds of thousands annually, but I want more taxes. Honestly, after a certain point I feel greedy and unethical making as much as I do. When I see my paycheck, I look at the taxes I paid and I think, "I was just there for someone in their time of need. Glad I could help."

I expect I'll get some votes from folks who find my mindset different from their own. But I think it's healthy to talk about this stuff calmly. Even though I strongly disagree with you, it's good to know how others feel and you expressed it without being dismissive or pejorative towards folks like me. Thanks!

lol... like you can know this. My 2010 MBPro definitely needed 16GB ram in 2016, and thankfully I was able to put it in there even though apple never supported that much ram in that model.

Your entire perspective on this is entirely warped.
There is a big difference between "the only thing preventing development of better rockets" and "one of things". NASA and every other country would be doing it now if better computers were the only thing needed for reusable rockets.

There is no sharp line dividing computers that made spaceX possible and slow ones, and with a little bit worse computers spaceX could develop the rocket after more failed attempts, spending much more money and time. But with the technology of 80's they'd end up with something very expensive and not very reliable similar to shuttle/buran.
We are actually moving away from wafer scale integration, because sticking to smaller chips makes you a lot more resilient to defects, which are becoming even more of a problem at recent nodes. Recent chips from both intel and amd are based on tiny "chiplets", connected via some sort of fast in-package interconnect.

Paradoxes such as this one point at some rarely discussed assumptions about the utility function. The major one is that it exists. Or exists as something more than a model which is only good for a range of payoffs.
Making a chip this large is difficult, expensive, and error prone.

It blows past the reticle limit, so you end up having to do multiple (carefully aligned) exposures for adjacent chunks of the design. Signals can't really travel more than a few mm to a cm or so without significant degredation, so you end up needing to add buffers all over the place. Good yield tends to be exponentially harder with larger designs, since the larger area has a higher probability of overlapping with a defect, so you end up needing to harden the design with redundancy and parts that can selectively be disabled if they turn out to be defective so you don't have to throw out the whole part.

FPGAs have been pushing towards this kind of craziness, but there aren't huge advantages to doing this with a CPU, since the only thing you can do with so much more area is add cores and cache. The cost to going off-die to additional cores isn't so bad. On the other hand, trying to synthesize a multi-FPGA design (while meeting timing) is torture.
It has come. Guess the trick is do you understand your own neural network so that you can hack it and defend it as well.

Sounds like you'd want this, but for it to truly work, you could also end up suffering. For example:

> A GPS spoofer that will occasionally tell my phone that I am visiting places I don't.

Sure, but the next time you want to see your Google Maps history, you'll question your own sanity.

> some kind of speech synthesizer which mimics my voice and sends engineered requests to Alexa while I'm not around.

Sure, but then you're liable for everything your spoofer says if it truly isn't distinguishable from your own voice. If it is distinguishable, then it defeats the purpose of hiding your true behavior in the first place.
This study had like 45 participants... how does one control for other variables with such a small population? Keep in mind ScreenQ is just a fancy name for a survey geared towards screen usage. It’s hard to think that income has something to do with this.

I grew up in a household where my sister and I were beneficiaries of a high earning father. My mother stayed home with us and never let us watch TV. Then my brother came along and when he was 3 and I was 7, my father lost his business. Almost overnight, our lives changed, and I recall walking home from school (this was surprisingly common in Queens in 1995) and immediately plopping down in front of the TV with my brother while both my parents worked.

It wasn’t until I had a child of my own when my mother told us how she painfully remembers having to make this choice: “we had no money, and we couldn’t afford a caretaker. On the one hand, we could have lived in worse conditions, and I would have bored you to death. On the other hand, there was 0% chance of vacations and showing you all various cultures- but with cable TV, you all had a better chance of acquiring culture.”

Conclusion: I didn’t get much screen time until about 7. My brother got a lot of it from 3. Let’s just say the data (n=3) shows that there is a positive correlation in cognitive development for the 1 of us who watched excessive TV around pre-school age vs. the others. I will never let my kids watch as much TV as my brother did when I was 3, but this is purely a function of money- I’m very fortunate to make good money and able to throw $60k a year on daycare + activities + nanny to provide entertainment away from the TV. By extension, Money is the causal factor.

I don't. My philosophy of language prof in undergrad relayed it to me. She said the conference had been held in Israel. I'd start there in your search. My guess, though, is that a transcript doesn't exist. Analytical philosophy as a profession has typically been pretty piss poor for archiving conferences (whether transcripts or programs, etc.).
It doesn't - prices I've seen are more like $200 US for the base level Philips air purifier in a retail store, and there are brands with even cheaper offerings. I see one on Amazon for $135 USD.

Of course, that's still not $30, especially when you add in the cost of replacement filters, but it's much better than the $400 quoted.

Imagine the last 60 min of your screen recording always available. As a developer, I've always been frustrated with recording screen to post clips on bug reports, or highlight the gaps in product specs, or dealing with customer escalations without a visual way of understanding the symptoms.

If there is a utility that captures and keeps the last 60 min of screen activity in a buffer, wouldn't it to super cool to just clip and publish something you saw on the screen. What if the buffer is available in the form of a software tool that sits in your menu bar?

It is illegal for police, citizens and private security guards to use lethal force unless their or someone else's life is under serious threat. However the bar is very low for cops. Cops often shoot even people running away from them and still don't get punished for it.

Which bank is this? Since 2014, SEPA-ICT has been introduced, and since this year, every bank should support it.

Normal SEPA transfers are mandated to be free and < 24 hours, and SEPA-ICT transfers are mandated to be < 1.5€ and < 15 seconds, but most banks implement those for free.

As you can freely choose any bank in the EU, you might want to consider German Commerzbank, which implements free < 15 seconds transfers to any other SEPA bank (except for student accounts, those have to pay 1.50€ for those transactions).

I was showing someone how GPT-2 could generate human-like text, and an innocent prompt ended up generating a very NSFW story. https://imgur.com/a/tsU82TS

One company recently released a model, but refused to release the decoder. Apparently they had trained it on some Reddit posts (or something like that) and the results were sometimes so offensive that the company wouldn't risk their reputation by releasing the decoder.

I think AI is going to reveal some unsettling things about human nature. For example, I was trying to train a model to morph someone's ethnicity (https://twitter.com/theshawwn/status/1184074334186414080) and ran straight into the problem of bias: black people are much less represented in FFHQ, the photo database the StyleGAN model was trained on. I had to gather several thousand datapoints, much more than other groups.

It was a fascinating look into bias in ML -- bias is a real thing that will affect our results, and it's important for you to go out of your way to correct for them when they affect people. The early model was so bad that if it was a corporation doing the work, they might have just scrubbed the project. But after a few thousand datapoints, it's a very convincing transformation now.

The future of AI generated content is just fascinating and delightful. And yes, scary. But it's like we're on the edge of... it's hard to put into words. Part of the reason I got into AI was to see what was hype vs what was real. And while we probably won't see AGI, I think we will see endless automated remixing. Imagine having a "blog synth" a few orders of magnitude more sophisticated than this, or an instrument that you can play like a pro within a few minutes. Can't wait for the good stuff.

I had the same thing with forearms. What you're experiencing is tendonitis commonly known as tennis elbow. Those straps relieve stress but they dont help heal. overuse will weaken your muscles.

In my case I spent some time studying the muscles of the forearm and analyzing my pain and movements. A TENS machine (cheap on amazon) targeting that muscle for 15 minutes helps a lot to make the muscle relax.

One major stretch missing in this list is active (using your other hand to push past where you can move it normally) wrist pronation/supination. In my case the shortened muscle was the flexor carpi ulnaris (which operates your pinky and wrist deviation). when it was overused it presented as tennis elbow and wrist pain on the ulnar side of the wrist.

When i do active wrist pronation/supination I can feel the stretch at the ulnar side of the wrist and at the lateral epicondyle, exactly where the pain used to be.

By stretching my wrist daily, including active wrist pronation/supination stretches, and once it had better range of movement starting on light exercise with resistance bands, everything is back to normal.

But try and figure out where your problem is exactly. your forearm and wrists are complicated and not just one muscle.

I think folks here would not disagree with your overall mindset, so much as the assumption that giving even more money to the government and forcing even more red tape on the business sector would be "good" for the worst off. It seems to be an incredibly common assumption though, and even conservatives are increasingly adopting it these days (see e.g. their attitudes to international trade) - so I'm not sure I could fault you for that.

Honestly, it looks like IRGC isn’t going to be around much longer, so it’s probably fine.
The single most important thing to know about surveillance is that the overwhelmingly most common use of the resulting information is for extortion. Police and prosecutors use it to force (often false) confessions, or to coerce people into dangerous situations. Spooks use it to force betrayals. "Fixers" use it to force people harmed to drop legal actions.

The surveillance used for these things doesn't need to be about you, to harm you; it could be about a member of a judge's family.
Records are strange feature. They are immutable, they can't be abstract, they can't extend, they have implementations of some methods. I don't need anything of that. I just need short syntax to declare property with trivial getter/setter and that's about it. This is strange proposal.
agreed, even light exercise will avoid many of these common issues.

> Non-deterministic behavior is the LAST thing anybody wants. And software people go to great lengths to mitigate it. And when they fail, we leak crypto keys, allow people to read privileged memory, etc.

Lets be a little more precise here. It's the last thing any designer wants to deal with. I don't think we humans are mentally equipped to deal with the explosion in the number of possible states it causes.

When we do decide to deal with it, it's not because we love it, its because we have no choice. No matter how stupid it is, no matter how difficult it is to get right, it can deliver one thing in spades: speed. When you exhausted all other options, that's where you have to go.

You are looking at it at the gate level, but it's everywhere. Don't want the CPU waiting around for slow I/O? Simples - just add an interrupt line so the I/O peripheral can asynchronously tell the CPU when it's done. What the fastest CPU? Chop up the instruction stream into little pieces, the throw the bits at a set of ALU's execute them as fast as they can, doing it asynchronously, tracking the interdependencies on the fly. That didn't get you enough? The put 10 CPU's on a chip and schedule tasks across them asynchronously. Oh, that causes cache conflicts - then just have all the CPU's snoop each other caches, asynchronously, and try to keep everything sane with the occasional bus lock. Want the fastest web server? Have it fire up threads on demand, have a thread pool, distribute the work load asynchronously. That generated too much disk I/O? No problem - use a SAN that shards everything into random locations, hand out the jobs asynchronously and in parallel.

It just goes on and on. We do it all the time. If it really is stupid we must be the dumbest fucks in the universe.
It's easy to write them. It's hard to read them. Say I have a class with 20 properties, it means 40 methods. Now one of those methods not trivial and rest are trivial. How can I quickly find out? I can't. Getter is 4 lines, Setter is 5 lines, 20 pairs is 180 lines of nothing.

I really tried to use Quiver for almost a year. I converted to it from Org-mode in Emacs. The reason for converting was to get better typography and layout. I really want to get header rendered in different sizes, bold really looking bold etc. Quiver looked really nice ans pleasing. But the rendering engine in Quiver is flaky. Headings of the same type end up having different sizes for example. I also never felt a benefit of the cell concept. Instead often accidentally creating new cells that had to be fixed.

I've now moved to Bear, and the experience is much better. Yes, it stores notes in a DB, not as files. But it is a standard, open SQL DB you can talk to if needed. Bear renders markdown nicely, has nice themes. And syncs between devices quick. I now read and write journal notes etc on desktop, iPad and mobile. And Bear supports inline images. This, together with nice rendering of quotes, code etc makes making complex notes possible. If I only could change the caret to a non-blinking, block everything would be great. Notes in Bear really are beutiful and pleasant to write and read.
