The woods is a great place to get to know people in my experience.

I don't drink--haven't been to a bar in literally years.

Getting past "Hi, how are you?" can be tough. It requires some vulnerability, which is scary. But which are you more scared of, telling someone about what's really going on with you, or continuing to live an isolated life?

I'm saying all this because I've been where you're at. It sucks and I wouldn't want anyone to have to live like that.
I'm pretty sure you can use plex without logging in for many use cases.
I started learning vim from https://vim-adventures.com/ and it has been invaluable.
> OK, but this is all in response to an attempt to have me come up with an acceptable level of client information leaks. Since that is an obvious trap I had fun with the idea instead.

Oh, you're commenting badly on purpose because you misinterpreted something as a 'trap'? Great.

It's not a trap question. If something gets misimplemented once, it's maybe probably not an issue with the spec. If it happens over and over again, it's suspicious.
Why is it dangerous? Self driving software instances costs a lot to develop but nothing to manufacture, and the cost cannot be used as an indicator of its safety or sophistication, at all.
Any tips for taking meeting notes specifically?

So the ground is not as grounded as we'd like it to be?
Observability Normalized
It appears that the first bunch of methods don't account for graphical distributions of Vim, e.g. MacVim―which have a different executable name.
Not sure if it's still the case but for many years Apple's Core Audio was a big draw for people running audio software due to it's stability, performance and compatibility with various devices. I've used Windows with ASIO drivers for many years and always found it a bit buggy with occasional random drop-outs that can only be fixed by reinstalling the drivers. Pulse Audio on Linux can be even more of a nightmare to get working with your equipment, but I've heard it's improving recently.
Apple had the money to buy "Logic" from a German company called "Emagic", and scrap their Windows version. Logic then soon became industry standard.

Voilà.
That's stupid and elitist. There's no reason to force students to go against IDEs that they're already used to, but also the general method of navigating around a computer which they're probably used to from MS Word etc.
Verilog isn't really very c-like. It is slightly more c-like than jts main competitor, VHDL. It is more c-like than lisp. But really, neither of those is saying much.

Ways it is not c-like:

- begin...end instead of curly braces

- parallelism with assign, always, initial

- tasks and functions and their subtle differences

- non-blocking assignment

- bit-oriented variables and operations

- 4-state logic (0, 1, X, Z)

- other constructs for modeling hardware like time delays, tri-state wires, drive strengths, etc.

Not to mention that SystemVerilog has taken over Verilog and adds OOP with classes, a complicated (sorry, powerful) assertion mini-language, constrained randomization, a streaming operator, and so on.
I started my professional career in 2003, and switched jobs many times. Never have they asked about hobby projects or github code or whatever. Nobody in the professional world cares about your hobby code. If you would say "I have experience with this framework from my hobby project", that translates into "no experience".

Maybe it's different in US, but in Belgium, they require a degree and professional experience, nothing else.

Do you know why? Because middle management and hr don't have such passion projects. They can't imagine doing the same (but different) work at home for fun.

Nobody has ever cared according to my experience.

Hitting C-a twice sends it to the terminal.
I agree with comments.

All ciphers older than 100 years have been broken, except for one.

However, it seems to me that designs improved exponentially, while attacks only improved quadratically. The old days of WWII where Enigma was broken before the end of the war will never happen again.

Conceptually, it makes sense: Science improves quadratically because breakthroughs improve tooling that accelerate breakthroughs. I am simplifying here, but if you have N tools at T1 that make you progress at rate R1=N×K, and that progress yields another tool: at T2 you have N+1 tools, making you progress at rate R2=R1+K. Your progress is P2=P1+R1, which generalizes to Pn+1 = Pn+n×K = P0+K×N×(N-1)÷2, a quadratic progression.

On the other hand, cryptographic security is exponentially better with every bit. If an old cipher uses its bits badly, it will still be good enough if it is long enough. Let's say it reaches a given difficulty level after 10 rounds; a cipher that uses its bits twice as well will reach the same level after 5 rounds, but would have something like 2^K times that level after 6, 2^2K times after 7, … 2^5K times after 10, reaching a level that quadratic improvements won't reach for an increasingly long time.

For instance, it took 5 years for MD4 (1990) to have a practical collision, 12 for MD5 (1992), 22 for SHA1 (1995), therefore roughly doubling every three years. If we extrapolate, SHA2 will have a practical collision in 2080.

> The people who run these shelters are angels.

I'm sorry if I misinterpret, but if only angels could handle such welfare works, there wouldn't be many shelters. I sometimes hear people say, in various ways, that a big heart is necessary and sufficient for these situations. It isn't. I believe a professional worker with little empathy helps more than most a purely nice persons. Even worse, some kind gestures can hurt precarious people. Of course, wonderful persons exist in the Welfare sector, either experienced or not. And even professional humanitarians can hurt more than they help, as it has been documented in Haiti or Thailand.
Why Open Source Makes the UK Open for Business Post-Brexit
Agreed on use of std::unordered_map, but I appreciated that the depth this went to was a simple comparison between the two obvious STL approaches. I think you could probably speed things up tremendously via micro-optimization, but it’s arguably more useful to know which of these two approaches to use when writing the code for the first time than how to optimize it to the teeth.
Mm i get the point but i disagree that "money" only bring small percentage. Entire new possibilities can be uncovered. For example I was thinking to these papers for example:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vppFvq2quQ0

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOxxPcy5Gr4

As another proof the entire concept of neural network exists since the 80's. It's the fact of using it on new hardware (the GPUs) which made it so important. And the "new hardware" is always expensive.

In 10 years also maybe every startup will have a massive cluster instead of a 4 GPU PC with current flops capabilities (which was luxury a few decades ago)
Hmm, I don't know anyone whose personally got an ongoing condition attributed to a vaccine.

Scarlett fever vaccine (decades ago) made me very ill. Flu vaccine this year seemed (it could be coincidental) to make one of my children ill enough to be off school. These are expected consequences.

It's also expected that some few people will die and others will have life altering conditions. These vaccines should still be used, because vaccines address the needs of a population in the first instance.
Apple gets $50B in revenue from App Store last year, growth slowed
That is entirely a matter of definitions of intelligence. If it's as in Strong AI, then we're nowhere near yet. But if it's as in limited scope better than humans, then we're very good.

Let's put the definition aside for a moment. Lets say we have a black box that doctors can put images into, and it will tell if there are areas that look like it might be cancer. Is that AI? Is it an AI if you can teach it what cancer look like?

This ignores the principle to avoid being constrained by illusionary local maxima. Why is the person still at a company where politics takes up 80% of day instead of "important" work? Although as other commentors have mentioned, climbing the corporate ladder to regional/country manager probably isn't the kind of success the author is talking abou.
There Are 2,373 Squirrels in Central Park. I Helped Count Them
this runs contrary to the mcluhan-inspired idea that has gained popularity recently — that media fracturing and echo chamber effects are shredding our shared identities and political control structures. i find this idea more convincing; we may have access to the same information flows but everyone has their own bubble, typically part of an ideological camp.
Isn't that exactly the point? We still talk about the 2015 tragedy, even though we have equally deadly tragedies every day, except from "boring" causes that don't make the news.
I think the setup you describe is similar to RSS: an individual broadcasts information on their channel, and other people can subscribe to it with their own client. There are no public keys involved, but being able to push to a specific RSS feed should be enough proof that the sender is who they claim to be.

If that answers your first question, you can read further essays on why RSS did not work as well as people intended. I don't have any specific one in mind, but I'm sure you can find some easily.
Sorry, I'm not that useful for your question. My experience is from the reverse switch. I'm used to Firefox (it's my daily driver) and had to get acquainted to Chrome.

I had to get used to Chrome devtools because javascript debugging is a lot better there. For completeness sake, CSS debugging is much better in Firefox. In time, I think both will converge.
There's also a conversation going on here: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6620646... whether this is the good reason for it.

One opinion is that if a new discovery is made via automation (e.g. cognitive automation) it lack an inventive step.

And if generating new patents is the current state of art, things that were patentable before should no longer be patentable.
A lot of the modern web exists on tech that google open sourced. Something it didn't need to do and would have been a huge competitive advantage to it if they had kept it closed source even after they had moved on to something better.
It's a great podcast! I can also recommend the episode on the THX sound.

This all becoming a bit too complicated... why not to just cancel the patent system and that's it?

Dynamic resizing a hash table by doubling its size when it reaches a threshold capacity is amortised O(1) per insert.

If there are deletions, both operations are amortised O(1) provided they have been sensible and made the deletion threshold a lower factor.

It's the same sort of pattern as dynamically resizing a growing string. As long as you resize by a constant > 1 factor, rather than an addition, the number of resizes is low enough that the O(n) cost of copying is amortised over prior appends.

> Either way, it's definitely larger than the simpler O(n) case we're thinking about.

It actually isn't larger than O(n), setting aside constant factors.

For a hash map's time to grow more than O(n) for n insertions starting from empty, suggests an implementation problem.

Ideally a good performance review helps the employee become better, and they can use that feedback to grow in their carer.

E.g. have someone on your team who writes long e-mails? Or insta-replies to things without taking time to think? Helping those people grow is the point.

Compensation is a universe unto itself. Ideally we'd all be paid according to merit but merit is hard to measure. A (well-executed) performance review should have value in helping people grow and not just be a vector for more $$.

Realistically speaking if you want to significantly increase your compensation these days you have to get a new job.
Nope.

The best thing that can happen to a beginner is they continue being frustrated with vim, quit it before they get in too deep, and just use shitty idees like the rest of us trash.
The police are the biggest offenders when it comes to unnecessarily blinding drivers at night.

The construction companies (who have to pay their own insurance premiums and generally avoid unnecessarily risking injury to people by blinding drivers) have long since toned down the lights they used (there was a short time period where they all had super bright lights because LEDs were new and cool so why not have a 1000W flasher), switched to the non-glaring light plants that use the canvas bags.
Yes and yes, but the alternative is you never enjoy self driving and the potential it has to reduce fatalities for the rest of your life.

It’s a trolley problem, this thing WILL KILL, the question is how more/less often compared to humans.
It does rhyme with polarization, alignment with groups and virtue signalling though. I'd say we see both effects.
It’s a matter of scale.

Driver crashes a car, kills a few. Personal liability, local reporting. Rest of world rolls on.

Airliner crashes, kills hundreds. Global headlines. Massive corporate responsibility. Very bad for business; just ask PanAm.
Try Ctrl-o followed by :q!

That should do it. ;)

Ctrl-o moves from INSERT mode to COMMAND mode for one command and so it still works in "easy" mode. I notice that "easy" mode was one of the things that the Nvim guys removed.
I know way to little about the stuff, but if you want to be my personal hero you are more than welcome on tryin to solve it :)

There is a step somewhere in there where we waste 30 minutes playing "agile poker" and arguing about the number of story points required to close vim.

The whole thing is followed up with a two hour retrospective where we pat ourselves on the back for increasing velocity (due to assigning story points to closing vim).

Bonus points if you then are asked to map that back to actual hours so we can estimate completely unrelated future tasks while simultaneously remembering that we don't estimate in hours.
Gosh that movie was awful.

American live action Death Note was the same: I was hopeful since they cast Willem Dafoe and he's usually in good stuff, but no, it was also pretty bad. It seems like American film companies are just trying to capitalize on the popularity of anime without grokking what made the best anime great.
I think the inquisition against the ignorant is also in it to satisfy their egos, so we have two groups that are playing this game.

We have public health care and you always get at least a vaccine against tetanus if you even hit your small toe and go to the doc. Slightly exaggerated but not by much. Nobody questioned it. And it wasn't esoteric moms on youtube that let people be skeptical, it was the pressure to enforce vaccination that did. I have no data, but these are the usual behavior patterns you can currently observe in almost all political debates.

Enforcing vaccinations is mostly a populist policy.
The linked bug appears to be waiting on action from the Debian maintainers. The Mozilla devs in that thread seem very responsive.

Well, maybe not humour in the end.

If we can't distinguish between machine and human-generated ideas how does it affect the patent system?

Kitze in Brussels: Advanced React Workshop
The manual trim wheels are not necessarily the only option in that case. If the runaway is due to faulty MCAS commands, the electric trim (operated by the yoke switches) is probably still functional, so I believe it is possible that the procedures for handling MCAS failure have been modified, now that Boeing is no longer pretending that MCAS makes no difference.

In addition, I believe MCAS itself has been modified. I have not seen a clear description of the changes, but they might include additional redundancy, rejection of improbable data, warnings that there are these problems, warnings whenever MCAS activates, restrictions on how much it can change the trim, and a cutout switch for MCAS that keeps the electric trim functioning.

In the worst case, manual retrimming with the wheels is still the last resort. I have seen it suggested, by sources generally considered reliable, that (prior to the Max) the need for the manual trim has been so rare that its use is not part of simulator training for any 737. I do not know if that will change, but if so, it would seem to raise the question of whether pilots of earlier variants also need additional training in its use (I would guess that it is most difficult on the largest and heaviest variants.)
How Can CRM Systems Contribute to the Growth of Small and Midsize Businesses?
One of my favorite little nuances in the original GITS anime is a scene in the middle that immerses the viewer in the world. This video[0] goes into detail about this and how it relates to aspect-to-aspect transitions in comics.

Comparing this element alone with the nature of the 2017 Hollywood film really has helped me identify so many other similar events in media where I previously would have struggled to pinpoint why I felt certain responses to something I watched.

The most recent example being the comparison of the pacing of The Mandalorian with The Rise of Skywalker.

Interview with Molly Struve: 3 Tactics for Mentoring Others
Lower-fidelity playback systems and environments can actually reveal artifacts in lossily compressed audio. The psychoacoustic encoder makes assumptions about what noises mask other noises - if noises it expects to be present are absent (for instance, if your playback system has a poor frequency response), then low-bitrate noises can be unmasked.

I would not be surprised if additional noise, such as road noise, can also subvert masking phenomena in some way, but I don't know of any studies that tested this.
If you haven't switched yet, maybe just wait for AV1.
And in some cases that's probably the rational position; even then it's still rational (and right) for the medical community to advise vaccination as they "don't care" about that one person, they care about the billions.

This dichotomy lies at the heart of this issue IMO.

It was all lead by the supermarkets, in the UK at least.

The two or three favourite varieties in the seventies and eighties have all disappeared. Not because customers no longer like them, but because the supermarkets wanted high yield, large size, taste free apples. More profit, and vast suppliers who'd supply a trillion tonnes at a time.

In the space of a decade the entire stock of trees for the UK's number one and two were grubbed up. The customers still wanted them, still asked for them, the supermarket response was "fuck you".

Now it's all Royal Gala, Golden Revolting^W Delicious, Pink Lady, Braeburn. All bland balls of taste free sugar.

> Why would you want to mess around with 2-3 HDMI dongles/boxes and 4-5 streaming services when you can have it all in one place for significantly cheaper and with little technical ability other than installing the Plex app and registering for a shared server? I suspect as time goes on Jellyfin will become the go to for these types of ‘services’.

This, except for most people maintaining their own private libraries, it probably makes more sense to use Kodi to play back files in a file system, than to rename everything to fit Jellyfin/Plex's fairly inflexible file naming requirements.
It'd be cool if there was something akin to Dolby Atmos where you don't deliver a master, but rather individual tracks and associated metadata, such that it can then be mastered on the fly depending on the output equipment.

Many games let you specify the audio output, and then adjusts the mixing accordingly. This would be something similar I guess, but the mixing is probably best done at the streaming provider, to save bandwidth and other resources. (For static content like music it only really has to be done once per output type.)

I'd like something like this, I have a vastly different sound setup at home than on the go, but listen to mostly the same tracks. Most sound pretty good on my home setup, but on the go I often find myself adjusting volume up and down between tracks, despite things like normalization being on.
