Typically. Although on a virtualized Arm what the guest views as a physical address is really an intermediate physical address that must be translated by the second stage MMU. So it’s possible that reading the first stage page tables can cause a page fault in the second stage MMU. I suspect modern x86 works similarly, but I’m less familiar with that.

The cost of finding a leaf in balanced tree (with data only at leaves, which is how we represent integers in base B) of size N is on average proportional to its branching factor B multiplied by its height H. Height is (log N)/(log B), so cost is B * (log N)/(log B).

By derivatives, that's minimized when B satisfies

0 = (log N) (1 /
(log B) + B(-1/((log B)^2)(1/B)

==

0 = 1/(log B) - 1/(log B)^2

1 = log B

Base of the logarithm = B.

This looks like you can pick any logarithmic base b
you want, and so
any B you want, but in fact the derivative I wrote assumes e is the base (hence the term "natural" logarithm.

Other bases b would yield a scaling factor of ... e/b,
since d(e^x)/dx = e^x

and b^x = e^((ln b) x)

You can chase "deeper" reasons for this all day long by digging deeper into the the many definitions/properties of e and proving they are equivalent.

Playing with e is the most fun you can have in pre/calculus.

That seems incredibly unlikely, since the cost of litigation for a small company against a company like Apple is huge. It's going to distract engineers, it's going to damage the company's reputation, it's going to slow progress as they try to meticulously explain where their IP came from and it's going to cost millions in legal fees most likely if it actually gets to court. And all that's before we even consider whether they're likely win - which they're not, because Apple has much more resources at their disposal.

I have a dumb question: isn't the quality of Machine Learning dependent of the quantity and quality of training data sets ? And if were are to utilize Google or Microsoft for ML, then the whole world ends up uploading their datasets to these giants -- which helps these companies develop even better ML systems-- like a network effect but for data ? Would these companies not have a tremendous advantage against any challengers or competition? Would this system not lead to some sort of Oligopoly ?
I really don't think the world is black and white, but the more I learned about the teachers' unions in the US, I came to realize it actually comes down to one thing:

Do you value the teachers or the students more?

It has become so hostile, the dichotomy really is that stark. All attempts to negotiate with the teachers' union, even offering them substantial bonuses to fire teachers well known for terrible performance, have been met with "fuck you" by the union.

You're right, not everybody will agree. Some people will side with the teachers. I think those people are ruining future generations.

The situation is that many, many employers make signing one of these a de facto requirement for employments, and they are widely known / believed to be unenforceable, but you still default to being on the hook for your own legal defense if a company that has otherwise idle full-time lawyers on their payroll and someone high enough decides they don't like that you and a bunch of other people quit. They weather that fight better then you and your startup will.

I worked at an SaaS offering for market research surveys that was threatened with a lawsuit because we hired a software engineer who used to work phones in a call center that specialized in polling people. He signed the non-compete contract, obviously, but the point was to discourage him and other people from quitting, or their potential employers from hiring them.
Why is Apple so focused on him being misleading in casual conversation about his post-Apple plans? Their whole case seems so weak, even before considering how hard it is to enforce a non-compete in CA.

I'm no fan of Facebook, but the whole premise of this article is baloney. Repressive regimes are going to do what they do regardless of Facebook's actions. I don't see the connection between Facebook trying to filter out kiddie porn before it hits their servers, and how it might affect government decision making.
Not exactly sure why this is relevant or where you wanted to take this, but ok:

in that case you didn't sell anything. You created scarcity because you convinced someone that there are not many like you. You simply created desire in the other person which stays unmet in that moment because, as you say, you weren't for sale. He/she realizes that they desire the traits you have in who they're looking for, so they try to find someone like you elsewhere.

the flipside would be: some person next to you on a plane... incidentally and unintentionally, and in a way that doesn't annoy you, a relaxed casual no-bs conversation starts quietly between you two. At some point they drift into talking about something they're building. By the end, randomly, you feel like this is someone you would like to work with/for. Even though your skills turn out to be relevant, they're not hiring.
Pensacola Hit by Cyberattack Days After Shooting at Military Base
IANAL but my reading of the situation would be that apple has a better claim on his IP than the tactic they're taking. All they'd have to do is prove that the idea was formulated at apple and they never signed it over to him. My understanding of Cali law (albeit likely very flawed) is that this suit as written is not supported by law.
Let me give you an example. Every pop-sci book I pick up about quantum mechanics is at least 30% the Bohr–Einstein debates and 'spooky action'. Getting tired of reading the same stories about Claude Shannon whenever I pick up a book which touches Information theory and of course, Newton's quirks every time I read a book which touches on gravity. It's boring, tedious and quite frankly irrelevant. If I want to read a book about the history and evolution of a particular branch of science, that's fine. But whenever I start reading a quantum mechanics book and it starts off with 'It was a sunny day in Athens and Epicurus was pondering..' oh.. fuck off.

Wow, I can’t believe how dismissive most of the comments here are.

The idea of adding folding wings to existing seat dimensions could be a huge, huge improvement for sleeping on flights.

No, it’s not changing or solving anything else. Yes the model is tiny. No this isn’t solving existing recline issues if you’re 6’5”. If you have incredibly broad shoulders then you might not be able to use the wings but you can still leave them folded up and it’s the same as now.

But this is still an improvement. This is a site for hackers looking to improve things. This feels like a really clever seat hack to me.

Can we actually just appreciate that it could be an improvement, rather than just rail on airline seat sizes? This is making seats better not worse.

Much of this sounds like being in an organization where engineering is seen (or is) a cost center, not a profit engine.

There's definitely a tendency to stasis in organizations - if the benefit of new software doesn't outweigh the loss of older, working software, there's no way anyone would want to encourage new software to be made.
I know it's been bashed to death, but it's funny they'd think the facial recognition thing would be "OK". Just a few months ago there was a big uproar ( https://www.cnn.com/travel/article/airplane-seatback-cameras... ) when someone finally noticed a bunch of the in-seat entertainment systems had a camera lens. This wasn't anything new (and they didn't even work) but the antics even got senators involved.

So why do some IFE have cameras that aren't used? Because the manufacturers are just slapping android tablets (sans case) into the back of the seats.
Yes. When I said "Too much retraining and retooling required", I meant on the IC design side. An AMULET user would see nothing unusual about the processor apart from uneven execution speed.

(If you're worried about side-channel attacks, you definitely don't want asynchronous technology as it's going to leak data-dependent timing information!)
Sounds like racist stuff was being said in that #Hot-Topics channel. You'll notice one of the offending employees did not even try to refute that, but rather seemed to be using the ridiculous defense of "I can't be racist because I'm not white".

> “The stuff you said was hateful, even racist. You no longer have a job at this company.” Emily, who is a person of color, was shocked. “That was jarring — three white people telling me I was racist,” she says.

Given the things I've seen people post publicly on Twitter and elsewhere, I can 100% believe that racist things were being said and that the perpetrators felt they were immune to repercussions because the things being said were about white people.

I find this article to be unnecessarily critical of Facebook. Facebook has not introduced any hitherto unknown strategy for surveillance by refusing to introduce server level encryption "backdoors". On-device surveillance apps are already a known vector.

FTA:
"""
Putting this all together, whether governments turn to Facebook to outsource their domestic and global surveillance needs or whether they merely use Facebook’s model as a blueprint for their own on-device surveillance programs, Facebook is rapidly leading us towards a world in which privacy will be nothing more than a faint memory of a quaint bygone era.

Yeah, no shit - this has already happened. I don't understand why this article is written like a hit-piece against FB.

I call it the "Powerpoint nap".

It's not just the interestingness, but the lack of engagement. When that meeting starts, your brain is likely shutting off the flow of orexin. That orexin may have been the only thing keeping you awake. You get bored or disengaged; you conk out.

I'd guess, just from hearing that short description, that you don't get much natural sunlight in your workplace, the meetings are happening just after lunchtime, between 1 and 4 PM, and that you have some amount of sleep disorder that would be almost trivially manageable if your medical insurance plan were more reasonable. You can't drive more than a few hours without getting sleepy. On planes, trains, or buses, you conk out almost immediately, and somehow wake up just before arriving at your destination. But you don't fall asleep during movies.

Schedule a visit with a sleep specialist in the first week of January, after your deductible resets, and get a sleep study done. If you get a prescription for a CPAP, or some other durable medical equipment, buy it outright, and send a copy of the receipt to your insurer. Do not rent. If you have been putting off any other medical treatments, get them done next year too. If you can't hit your deductible with a sleep study and CPAP on the books, you probably never will.
To the Apple PR folks reading this thread now : Unless there are facts of the case that relate to actual IP theft, you've just done more damage to your hiring pipeline than you can imagine.

Take steps internally to fix this. It isn't a bad look to step down. In fact, you'll improve your standing if you consider how the engineering community views this.

This action is hostile and will greatly impact your hiring and retention of talent.
It also keeps a passenger of size from spilling over into another person's seat. I think this is an improvement. And even if the passenger of size can't use the flaps, the passenger next to him can use them as a barricade.

"I usually take 3-4 tries with some significant amount of testing to get my code to a working state."

..this is a "code" smell to me. if you are jr, then ok, otherwise you got some serious problems nad put your focus in the wrong places.

anyhow, one advice i can give you, or anybody else, is - when you're doing it right, it just flows. when you're banging your head against a wall, you took a bad turn in your decisionamking process a while back and need to retract your steps. this one usually can save you from writing about 80% of useless code. when you are bored and are not looking forward to write something, you are on the right track. if you feel creative and full of energy, you are thinking on your feet and have no idea where it will lead you. sure, this is the best part of coding, the creativity, but not in the business world. that is for your personal projects. boring is good. be creative in preparation, not once you're already undertaking a task.

I hope Apple loses. This case of ex-employees starting a company is a classic example of improving competition in the market. You need to have the domain knowledge to be successful, so ex-employees are probably what companies fear.

Like a vote-trading scheme where I can give you my vote on this issue I don't care about, to buy your support on some other issue you don't care about?

I've contemplated that too, but I'm not sure it leads to better results. I think good results come from amassing voters who are genuinely engaged on an issue, and entrenching a means for them to become well-informed before casting their ballot.

A system to deliver that, blocks the noise of political issues I don't care about (I simply don't participate, which is a good outcome since my participation adds little-to-negative value) and surfaces those I do. It provides me with expert analysis, arguments and counterarguments (something like StackOverflow to bubble the best content to the top?). And it makes more economical and efficient use of my attention.
Build American. Hire American.

I'm not one to outsource work to people overseas to save a buck. That, to me, is extremely problematic.
From what I have seen the caste system exists in companies where the tech part is not the main business. I work in medical devices and there the programmers are viewed as replaceable and don’t have much potential to move up. At least I haven’t seen it so far. You either have to be MBA or sales. Some medical guys also get promoted. In software companies I have seen programmers move up a lot.

That’s Why I recommend people to try to work for a company where the CEO has some understanding and appreciation of your work and doesn’t see it just as a cost factor that better get offshored and outsourced. There are always exceptions but in general you will have a much better life and career in such companies.

I'm not sure there is any other stance that can be taken other than a nakedly partisan one. Each side is obviously going to think that the media is biased against them because because lies the other side believes are a lot more visible than lies they believe, because when the media sides with them it's just what they expect but when the media sides with their opponents it's shocking and anger-inducing, and so on and so forth.
> Make is more than a build system, it's also an automation tool.

I agree with that, but I don't believe that the GP said otherwise. Make is an automation tool, but what it aims to automate is exactly dependency tracking. Other features, like actually performing the tasks, are off-loaded to the shell and other tools.

> It gives you a fairly flexible format for managing different tasks with shared variables and autocompletion and more.

You could as well be describing a shell here, which already have these features.

> You can do it with a bunch of shell scripts too but I prefer having everything in a single file.

What stops you from using a single shell script? Likewise, you have a Makefile delegate tasks to other Makefiles (as the author has done for the build-tokenizer rule).

Anyway, you should of course use them in any manner that suits you, but for a guide on "using Makefiles for Go" I think it's an oversight to ignore the main selling point of make by just using it as you would a switched shell script with no dependency tracking. It just introduces another syntax and new caveats to the problem, adding little value.
