same, gp107. ubuntu, usually after session resume.

the good: it used to crash my pc when the render process would just hang at 100% after resume, doesnt anymore

the bad: sometimes i have to scroll the page and tab bar after resume now

California state law since 2019 now allows most single-family homeowners with large back yards to build ADUs without dealing with additional compliance rules from local governments.
Was going to answer this sooner but others beat me to it! I went to a few prospect pitches where some of the newly minted well paid data scientists worked overtime to justify that what they do is unique and could not be 'commoditized' through our product. In the end pitching to business or C level worked better.
I too have seen the same issue, and I also have a GTX 1070. I also sometimes see the characters on a page suddenly not render too, or parts of the page go black like the squares they mention. I will keeping an eye out to see if I can get some repro steps.
Because when you always take advantage of all that flexibility, you end up with Perl.

Everyone was always so excited to show off their mastery of Perl and do fancy things that it was very hard to maintain, and Perl got a reputation as a "write-only"[1] language.

You should follow the principle of least-surprise, and follow the idioms of the language. It's great to have the flexibility when you absolutely need it, but that should be reserved for rare cases and be very well commented.

That's a valid point of view I think from the point of the art consumer, if you are into computer generated art. But misses part of the point of art completely; the point from the artists' perspective, at least for humans, which is about self-expression.

Context:
As of the beginning of 2020 all aircraft are required to have ADS-B out capability. This means that they periodically broadcast their GPS position unencrypted, along with their speed, altitude, heading and tail number.

Most networks like Flight Aware allow owners to blacklist aircraft such that their tracks do not appear on the site. This is typical of corporate aviation departments and private jet owners as they don't want their movements to be available to rivals/hedge funds or the media. Additionally military aircraft are typically not reported.

Edit: also, for those who are unaware, unlike license plates which are generally unsearchable, tail-numbers as reported by ADS-B are publicly searchable with registration and history information available on the FAA website:

Thanks for this account, I love such wider-than-history perspectives. It literally helps us put things in perspective, realize that there is so much already.

A city that's 200 years old today is "young" by human standards; even civilizations (cultural shapes) a thousand years old have probably only gone 10% of the temporal distance since the first settlements.

I sometimes wonder how our current present could possibly be seen by people 7,000 years from now in the future (well, I tend to stop at 1,000 because it's already too big, but contemplating 10,000 or 100k even is humbling). There's this sense that we would be "ancient" to them, a different world. That most of our preoccupations would be long solved, and that only a few memes of our culture would remain to their day. To wonder if, in the grander scheme of things, we're "empty" like so many times before us and will leave pretty much nothing substantial, or if we're "decisive" like those ideas and people and eras that shaped civilization as we know it today.

Would future eras see our computers and AI-attempts as foolish delusions like some people thought vapor machines could solve everything? Would our cars and planes and trains be seen as a temporary means of transportation that only lasted a couple centuries before something much better, much more "obvious" would take place? When would we escape Earth and grow beyond, is it for this century or much later, would it even be a done deal by 3,000? What new science lies beyond us in time simply because we just can't see it now, and yet we could actually make now if we just thought of it? (like we could have invented electricity in Ancient times, but conversely Einstein's GR was a gift from the Gods because it was at least 100 years too early in refinement). How much of what we take for granted is actually debatable or plain wrong; how much of what we doubt today is actually true, the right intuition? When do we eventually cease to be "homo sapiens sapiens" because too many mutations is too many and we've become something else? How much of "something else" is of our own doing (volition, objective) though genetics, epigenetics, culture? Etc., etc., etc.

I find that far from being sterile or futile, these are extremely valuable thought experiments because they let us break our current mold and observe things from an arbitrarily different (call it "weird") standpoint. They let us re-imagine the past and unfold it differently, thus see many futures — and as always, plans are useless, but planning is indispensable.
Oh, many things that get lost in the details. One of the more surprising is how budget nonsense can work out reasonably well. The spending mandates that apply to the budget exceed the actual budget. As a result state employees allocate resources using their best judgement. Thus the political chaos surrounding the budget is converted into an orderly surrender to government administrators.
I lived in Santa Cruz for over 10 years and grew up in the area. The tech industry has had hugely negative effects on Santa Cruz. It's a long but doable commute to the south bay (including Netflix), and there's shuttles to many of the larger tech companies. The job market in Santa Cruz is dismal; the university is a major source of jobs but other than that it's mostly small town service jobs. Trying to live in Santa Cruz AND work in Santa Cruz is very difficult.

Home ownership is out of reach for the vast majority of people who work in the area, and the rental market is dominated by students living off of student loans or family support rather than supported by local jobs.

There is no easy answer, because as others have noted, Santa Cruz is surrounded by ocean and greenspace, and full of NIMBYs who want to limit development. I can't blame them; the city is cute and many of the neighborhoods are lovely. It's just a shame that it's becoming a bedroom community for Silicon Valley rather than a self-sustaining town in its own right.
They're calling you anti-national. Basically a traitor.
The comparison with QEMU is a bit disingenuous. The number of lines of code in a given binary is much less than 1.4 million, which is the total for all the architectures that QEMU supports (actually it's closer to 2 million). It is also possible to configure out a lot of the code and libraries. A default build is around 6-700.000 lines of code, and it is possible to build reduced versions that tally less than 300.000 lines just by tweaking a configuration file with the list of included devices (which was done for the experiments in the paper). The NEMU project mentioned in the paper is inactive exactly because it was a dead end: it was possible to achieve all their goals directly in QEMU without the need for a fork.

Likewise, the number of syscalls in QEMU (270) is quoted from another paper but likely refers not to QEMU used as a VMM, but rather to the so called "user-mode emulation" that runs foreign Linux binaries (and which, by its very nature, invokes pretty much all Linux syscalls including quite a few obsolete ones).

It would be interesting to have more information on the configuration they use for QEMU, especially whether they are enabling PCI and ACPI. Version 4.2 of QEMU (the version they used) has a trimmed virtual machine type that was admittedly inspired by Firecracker and actually boots even faster than Firecracker, or at least in the noise. [1] The code specific to this machine type is only 500 lines. Also since that release QEMU and qboot _are_ actually able to boot uncompressed kernels using the PVH entry point, contrarily to what the paper states. This could explain the difference in boot time performance.

Memory consumption is tricky, QEMU uses green threads and has to allocate stacks for them. This can show up as large mmaps but they do not correspond to actual memory usage. But again without redoing the experiments it's hard to say if that is the cause. I have no doubt Firecracker is leaner in this respect, anyway, and it's an important metric for Amazon.

That said, I am all for competition, and some of the measurements in the paper are certainly worth a look to see if there is more low hanging fruit to pick, especially with respect to memory consumption. QEMU is a complex program, as demonstrated by the complexity of measuring it accurately, and Firecracker is a very interesting project. I am very happy to collaborate with the authors of the paper on rust-vmm.

This is the first time I've heard of this. Do you have any data to support this claim? None of the places I know about have lengthening PhDs, in fact the opposite -- they are decreasing PhD lengths from 6+ to 5-6 being the norm, because that's a key factor in how applicants choose PhD programs so they need to do this to remain competitive.
In my case, all of the tracks are already on the device. But yes, it's possible that they're doing something like this anyway.

With all due respect, the "too many outsiders spoil thing" narrative is hokum, flat wrong, an not-useful myth.

Back when rents were considerably more affordable, most of California received a similar level of visitor and had similar growth rates. The changes have been driven by massive money coming into real estate, restrictions on building, and an economy where real wages are stagnant.

> No, it's just a good UI design

I disagree entirely. I think the ribbon is a great example of terrible UI design because it's clunky, it makes it very hard to find what you need, and it eats up a lot of screen space.
One thing that's uniquely advantageous for me with WSL is having multiple distributions at hand all atop Windows without the hard lines of traditional VMs. So I use Ubuntu on WSL for stuff like server/network admin. But if I want to work on some code for my RPi GPIO project, I can easily access Debian on WSL (where RPi libraries will actually install), all while still having the primary OS be Windows (which confers a lot of advantages in daily productivity app use, games, etc).
I'm not sure that a Mac (for instance) can match that kind of flexibility as elegantly. I may be an edge case in not sticking to one distribution but I definitely see the whole system as a uniquely better environment because of that flexibility.

> I think it would be helpful if you could dive deeper why you think " Refreshing the data every five minutes in batches" is "sufficient".

Not OP, but I'm guessing because most of that data is not actionable in real-time. There's zero point to get real-time data to analysts or decision makers if they're not going to use it to make real-time decisions; arguably, it can be even counterproductive, leading to an organizational ADHD, where people fret over minute-to-minute changes, where they should be focusing on daily or monthly running averages.
If you call US$ 201 million underpaid, sure. Or maybe US$ 229 million.

This is a ridiculous amount to play ball, if that cap means that mid level players get a decent life I think it's more than fair enough. I don't think a salary cap of a couple hundred millions of dollars would stop any human being innovating to get to such a job, I'm sorry.
IMHO there's no reason to memory-map the interchange format itself.

I would predict/expect that both LibreOffice and MS Office (with their modern XML-based formats) are actually mmap(2)ing some temp file and treating it as an "on-disk working-state heap", and then importing from interchange formats by allocating from that heap / exporting to interchange formats by chasing pointers that end up inside that heap. (This is, after all, what every RDBMS does for its working state. It's pretty optimal.)

Even if you have a memory-mapped interchange format, I'd still expect them to have a separate disk-backed working heap for all the stuff that doesn't belong in the file but is nevertheless very large (e.g. cached intermediary computation results of spreadsheet cells); and, if they have it, they may as well just use it for most things by default. Thus, I would expect that even in old versions of MS Office, the in-memory data structures were actually an interchange format of sorts—not the ones being updated with each keystroke, but rather ones that'd be memcpy(2)ed into on export. (This also prevents you from either having to add a page-table structure to your file, or else constantly "defragment" it as data structures change.)
Also, even if they were to give you your fraction of that back, that would count as taxable income - unless they categorize it as a "stipend" -- which requires a lot more up-front accounting/legal work on their end.

You may prefer getting $6/wk (or $5.04/wk after taxes) more instead of snacks at work, but the simple fact is that your employer provides snacks because it's in their best interest to do so. Whether it's in your interest is not the decisive factor, though they may take your opinion into consideration.

Housing cannot both be 'affordable' and a 'good investment' - prices grow faster than inflation.

I'm not arguing about GDP. If I was, I would be pointing out how it is a poor metric to measure anything by.

The onlything stoping individuals from farming if they want to is the resources to afford to do so while maintaing the farmers desired lifestyle.

In the past, farmers could get those resources by selling their produce. That became less viable as other models (read, factory farming) started to offer produce cheaper. If you want to maintain the old model, someone needs to pay the difference.

If you want to argue that animal welfare is something that we should value and requires collective (eg government) action to achieve, that would be a valid arguement. You could even argue that such a change would be to the benifit of small farmers.
No, they just manually browsed it. Both on my computer (which is a practice that's been there for >7-9 years) and mobiles.

A 30mm a-10 round weighs like .75kg. Would seem we could make CAS anti-personnel drones for less weight and longer range.

5-6 years is far far too long. It doesn’t take that long to learn to do research.
> When I hear "legacy application", I basically assume the framework used is outdated/unsupported.

That's often the case, but the app itself is usually actively (if lightly, sometimes, because the cost of change is high and there is a lack of skilled maintainance personnel) even if the underlying platform is outdated and possibly even out of support (and in some cases long abandoned by the vendor.)

> That's my point, you can't incrementally rewrite that because you'd be rebuilding on a burning platform.

You absolutely can maintain software on an outdated and, often, unsupported platform (the latter can sometimes be a licensing problem, as you may not continue to have the legal right to use it.)
At the time I couldn't understand why some people hated it. And I knew how to use the previous version, I was fairly used to it.

But the ribbon made sense. You had the organization of the menus, and discoverability for more uncommon icons since they now had labels. You could always find what you wanted quickly the first time.

Plus, it was collapsible if you needed space, and it worked with the keyboard if you wanted to learn it.
There is a lot of that going on, but it is important that factor only came into play in the 1980s and then in a big way after Biden and friends changed the rules around student loans. That is a huge problem that must be dealt with, but underpaid graduate students, exploding tuition, and colleges going under has been going on for a while even without the lending.

Recently I did a trial of https://www.diffchecker.com/, and when I didn't buy, got an email from "Nick from Diffchecker [admin@diffchecker.com]" saying, "If you're still undecided and have questions or concerns, please do let us know at: admin@diffchecker.com" and it was signed by this Nick person.

So I emailed back briefly, politely explaining why I didn't buy.

A week later, I got an email from the same email address saying "If you decided that Diffchecker Desktop wasn’t a good fit, we’d love to hear why. We’d appreciate if you’d answer these questions below to help us learn why didn’t you upgrade your subscription" asking me to fill out a survey.
