Honestly, this reminds me of almost every game launch on consoles. They don't start off with 100 games. They start out with some core games that don't show off the system's full capabilities and then over time the library gets big.
>Compare it to the Gmail or Chrome

Chrome was built out of the frustration of Firefox didn't get any faster. And at the time they have a real need to compete with IE which was holding back the web, their search engine, and hence their ad money.

Gmail was built by an employee as their 20% project, got traction within the company, improved the Spam filter for their own use before it was open to public ( or invite ).

Both of them were born from product mentality, where they see a problem, have real frustration and have vision of where it should be.

It was quite clear Stadia was born out of a business revenue idea rather than real needs. ( That goes the same with Apple Arcade, although one can argue it was designed for kids ) And whether there is a market for it remains to be seen.

Despite all the criticism Apple gets, and all the flaws it has lately, they are still very much a product mentality company, and possibly the only one out of the big corps. Google on the other hand, is more like a one off success. I cant even remember a Google product on top of my head that are not from acquisition or 20% project and was born out of a product mentality.

Edit: Ok there is one, Google Map.
Isn't this an airport (or any port) security headache?

What about buying the monitors on a local board when you arrive somewhere, then sell them on that same board when you leave? I think this would work well in most cities, in that you'd find one pretty quick.

I mean you could probably find a company that'll lend you some of their dustier monitors. Most software companies seem to have a problem that they have ones they need to get rid of.
As far as I can tell according to the article, the union did not support the UCSC strike but it has done some things that support the wildcat strikers, including filing an unfair labor practices suit against the university and openly commenting on the mistreatment of the strikers.

Grad students at UCSC didn't arbitrarily think the deal they struck isn't good enough anymore, they never thought it was good enough in the first place. 83% of UCSC grad students felt the minimums outlined in the agreement, which was a UC wide agreement and not between UCSC and the UCSC grad students by the way, were insufficient for the growing rents in Santa Cruz.

This 13m number isn't arbitrary. In fact that $1400 per month bump is designed to put UCSC grad students in line with net compensation received by grad students at UC Riverside.

I created a throwaway account because, well you'll see why.

My wife just told me that two of her co-workers were in Wuhan in Late November visiting a factory and they both got the flu in Wuhan.

One guy A, tested negative for the flu, he was sick for 6 weeks, he would start to feel better than get sicker. His doctor told him that he had no idea what was wrong with him. The guy A, said it was the strangest flu he ever had. Over the 6 weeks he was sick he worked from home the entire time and was only working part time for most of those 6 weeks because of how bad he felt.

The other guy B, I don't know if B was tested for the flu, was sicker than A, and he was sick for 8 weeks. He also worked from home for the entire time, my wife doesn't work closely with B, so she's not sure how much time he missed during those 6 weeks.

I don't think it is that simple. Associated materials that I am paying for? Additionally, as another commenter mentioned there is an administration aspect no doubt about how crazy it is TAs even have this power in the first place.

_Mad_ is not the word I'd use in this situation. Ive been here long enough to just roll with the punches through every strike. I am just trying to talk about it, but it seems its easy to assume how others are acting.

The aggressive rhetoric this topic brings out like "open up your brain a bit" really is helping no one, including the strike and its cause.
I remember reading an article about point and shoot cameras becoming popular because most users don't adjust any settings away from defaults. I feel like appliances are the same. Ours have a ton of options on them, but only a few are used. I could literally use a washer with cold/warm/hot and that's it.
I’ve never really understood this, because undoing DRY is relatively easy: you either copy the new function/class and rename it or you inline it in the mistaken case and adjust the code to match.
As I imagine you are expecting to test for smoke in that case by seeing if you can smell it: of course you can smell it, as what you are smelling there is a gas. An N95 mask filters particles larger than some reasonably large size, which hopefully includes giant encapsulated viruses filled with genetic material but is not going to include the odor from smoke which is made up of individual molecules of stuff like syringol. An N95 mask is not some kind of "only oxygen and nitrogen and carbon dioxide (and whatever else you absolutely need from air)" filter: it is just that most scents thankfully aren't harmful, but happen to be correlated with stuff that is.

FWIW, when I wear an N95 mask I do not get steam from its edges (that is either a ludicrously poor fit or you are expecting to be able to breath out too quickly for your mask design), but you also need to remember that breathing out is "safe" while breathing in is not, and yet the pressure in the two cases is very different, so something can be very effective even if it has the issue you are complaining about (and some masks are even designed specifically like that, with pressure vents to make breathing easier so you can exhale quickly without a problem and then pull air in more slowly where the feedback is more clear).
While preparing for interviews, I use to wonder why do they emphasize so much data structures. This article proved them right and made me realize why data structures must be your muscle memory.
Yes, phones are now powerful enough that if the resulting ML core can be crushed down small enough you can just send that to the phone. My Pixel is set to passively identify every song it hears and display it on the lock screen. No Clown network service nonsense involved, Google built it for other reasons and went "Oh, this would fit on a phone. Cool, might as well".
I've been digging into the topic since "progress studies" got more popular, but it seems like no one has done much in that direction (which is also what my initial hunches suggested should be tried).

There's a lot of grunt work to do if you want to label the data to match our current technological reality, but in the abstract, it still seems to me that building such models could yield interesting insights.

You can add all sorts of bells and whistles to make it more interesting (play with diffusion speed, the inherent difficulty of the discoveries required, etc.).
“The point” is an unconfirmed assertion that has been circulating for weeks. While there’s likely some truth to it, you can’t blindly assume that the 20% of the population that are asymptomatic are evenly distributed across the age spectrum.’t be so quick to write off your comment’s parent. Hypothetical: it’s possible that the 70+ Demographic is much more likely to have pre-existing conditions (diabetes, scarred lungs, heart disease) which makes COVIS19 symptoms more likely to appear.
Parity to the existing is what UCSC grad students want. This $1400 per month isn't arbitrary, it would bring minimum net compensation in line with what an arbitrary grad student at UC Riverside receives in net compensation.

Interestingly, there is no way to get an iPhone to charge off of a computer port (which will try to send data?) without trusting it. It will just refuse the connection entirely instead of accepting just power.
I agree. I actually think Alphabet's long-term (10+ years) future is pretty grim.
As a grad student myself, lets just say that many graduate students and faculty are suggesting that grad students never apply to your school.

I wouldn't call that very detrimental to there cause.
From the same link:

"This means that international students on a full AI or full AR appointment are not eligible for additional on-campus work, even if the Graduate School employment policy would otherwise allow it."
The photons have no inner parts. This is more similar to destroying the photon and creating three new photons.

(I don't like "absorbing". They use probably a non linear crystal, and the transformation is probably not in a single spot. I'm not sure about the details, but probably the photon slowly disappear while the photon is traveling inside the crystal, and at the same time the other three photons slowly apear. This must be interpreted as probabilities of seen the original photons or the new three photons at the other end of the crystal. You can't have half a photon, only a 50% probability of seeing a whole photon. This explanation has too many weird things and handwaving ... just use "destroying" instead of "absorbing". More info https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spontaneous_parametric_down-co... )
I guess one could draw the Feynman diagram for this interaction, but I don't think it makes a whole lot of sense to talk about a physical "mechanism". If the quantum numbers are conserved (energy, momentum, angular momentum, etc.) then it can just happen.

Fine, then expose the lies. Also, typing "CCP" makes it very obvious you have an agenda. And as I said, everybody lies.

> What interest would the Australian government have in challenging China, when much of their economy relies on them!

It's called the american/anglo-american/western world order. The same reason Canada arrested a chinese executive. Before ww2, germany relied on soviet union for their economy and Japan relied on the US for their economy. WW2 still happened. Not sure why you think economic reliance necessarily prevents national rivalries. Especially during a major trade war.

> On top of that, most of the provided information just matches other independent research.

I'm sure they do. Propaganda usually works that way. And I wouldn't be so loose with words like "indepedent research".

> The only one who is defending propagandists is you.

Aren't you the one defending Australian Strategic Policy Institute? The only one defending propagandists is you. I'm more than happy to call all propagandists out.
I wonder if the union seriously considered a strike or not. I read the article but I missed anything that indicated deliberation over the striker's cause on the part of the union. In the grand bargain the union has to refrain from merging with management or else it is illegitimate.
Car owners are more likely to get in car accidents.

Unfortunately, that solution is a dud. It does not work.

Yes, and hence a flat array data file would allow notably better performance than this B-Tree solution.

The fastest method would be to treating the 20-byte hash as a floating point number in the range 0.0 and 1.0. This would let you use Newton's iteration method to very accurately guess the approximate location in the file and then narrow it down from there. By reading small blocks of 0.5-4KB you could probably get to the required hash in just 1-2 reads, which is either optimal or very close to it.

Do clever things to simple data!

I would disqualify it just based on the fact that it is very based in American politics and culture at a distinct time period. It also doesn’t really push form in any interesting ways.
Expected that there is some overhead to keep lights on, sure. But should lab A who brought in a 1 million dollar grant pay 500k in overhead for internet and electricity while lab B in the next bay in the same room brought in a 50k grant and only needs to pay 25k? Overhead is baked into salary budgeting too, you might budget 60k for your technician in your grant, knowing they'd receive 40k, the 20k allegedly covering the employees various benefits (which said employee will find are withheld from their 40k paychecks anyway).
Yes, I mean no object oriented PostScript programming. The NeXT user interface toolkit was entirely implemented in Objective C, and the PostScript code it sent to the Display PostScript server was very simple and flat, not a customized per-application protocol, and didn't do much more than drawing.

That's why it was such a natural progression for Apple to switch from Display PostScript to Cocoa, which was the moral equivalent of PDF, which is just PostScript without the Turing-complete programming language part.

It looks like the main reason why almost all COVID cases reported in Hubei - is because only in Hubei they consistently test for COVID. In other provinces (and countries) they practically do not test for COVID, and therefore they do not detect COVID in other provinces.

Clojure has while loops, but I think I see where you're coming from: It is a significantly different approach to programming, and if an engineer is not willing to re-jigger their style Clojure is not going to be a good fit for them.

Perhaps because you're using Windows, to begin with.

GTK talks of native look-and-feel, but it's very poor at Windows look or feel. I have evaluated GTK for building apps that would be primarily used on Windows, and I gave up in short order after trying quite a few themes (ones trying to be like Windows 7, 10/Win32, 10/UWP, &c.). They were uniformly woefully bad for both look and feel, on my high-DPI environment. I got the impression some of them would have been better on a low-DPI device, but every last one of them would still have been bad in various serious ways. It always started with the title bar looking and behaving completely incorrectly, so GTK apps on Windows that want to look not awful start by telling GTK to let the OS draw the title bar. Then you get your file picker modals; and things like Inkscape drop GTK on the floor there, and call the Win32 API instead, on Windows.

And all this is fairly typical if you want it to feel native.
Don't think of it like "causing that thing to pull the video using your phone or other device".

Will coronavirus alter WWDC?
Ha, I did run into that one. Take my upvote! Clojure's while is very rarely used so hopefully my point still stands, especially when languages like Go have been wildly successful going in the exact opposite direction.
That's not how math works. The 1% fatality rate is out of the people tested positive. The 20% serious symptoms rate is also out of the people tested positive. You don't get to multiply these together.
Platformio[0] is probably the best option, here.

It supports the arduino-style code munging, though realistically if you're at least remotely familiar with C++ it's super easy to not use it.

It also supports basically every embedded platform out there to some extent.

Don't worry I've got the next cell over from you.

I think it's sort of like what the other reply was talking about. Thinking about getting something onto the TV by opening something on her phone and then hitting some buttons was confusing.

I started presenting it as a process where you take something on your phone and push it to the TV, and I think that helped.

And what do you know, the rents are still high. At what point do we realize that an administrator making 600k a year off the backs of people toiling long hours in labs to bring in grant money for the school and coming home to live in tenement conditions isn't the fault of the students, but the administrators making half a million dollars a year? Quite a hill to die on.
"tell them you'll see them in court if they don't like it, and drop you from search"

You tack on "drop you from search" as if it were an afterthought. But the "copyright violation" or "taking other peoples' work" is the process of making it searchable. What logical possibility is there other than doing it or not doing it?

I have a few pallets of Costco bottled water in the garage. Think they are 6 gallons each. Could throw them under beds as well if you don’t have a garage. You don’t need 1 gallon per person. Probably half of that. One quart to drink and another to cook. Not going for recommended consumption when the goal is survival.
For those who may be curious, how two very similar products (USBNinja and the O.MG Cable) exist, there is a bit of history.

Both products are based on the concept of a HID attack: most modern OSs (MacOS, Linux, Windows, Android...) trust HID (Human Interface Devices) implicitly. This means that when you plug in a Keyboard, Mouse, Storage device or Network device, they work instantly. You don't need to install drivers or explicitly enable them. The newly attached devices work instantly - even on a locked device.

The advantage here is obvious. The disadvantage is more subtle, but was exploited by the Hak5 "Rubber Ducky". By emulating a HID device (or even worse, multiple HID devices simultaneously..) - you could essentially control a computer and deploy / execute anything, as if you had full control of the device.

"The Classic" PoC is the Windows "Creds" attack [1] - which unlocks locked windows machines - later turned very, very nuclear by Samy Kamkar with PoisonTap [2], which essentially exfiltrates data, exfiltrates cookies and credentials, and permanently backdoors a locked PC.

The idea of moving from a dedicated device (Rubber Ducky) to an embedded device first came to surface with the BadUSB device [3].

The idea of moving it into a cable came from the NSA, a device called COTTONMOUTH [4][6], which was leaked during the NSA document dumps [5]. MG, the designer of BadUSB, built a prototype of this with today's resources.

RRG, the company behind the latest iterations of Proxmark 3, ChameleonTiny, etc prototyped and built the USBNinja. Their device is built on the Arduino (Ducky) framework, as opposed to the ESP32 Framework.

There is / was drama between MG (behind BadUSB) and RRG / Kevin Mitnik; MG claimed that it was his prototyped device was brought to market first by RRG.

Drama aside, both products exist, both serve the same purposes, and from a hardware point of view, they're both incredible devices that we could have never imagined 10 years ago.

Personally, I find the framework of the USBNinja to be slightly better in practical purposes, (Non-degraded USB-C charging and performance, non detectable wifi etc). I believe there is also a "pro" version slated for release that adds significant functionality.

Source / disclaimer for all of this: I source products for https://Lab401.com - so we performed a deep dive on both products before deciding which to stock. I also had the chance to visit the factories and witness the prototyping - absolutely fascinating.

It's worth underlining that when the COTTONMOUTH device came out in 2009, it had a value of over 1MUSD. 10 years later, arguably better and smaller devices are literally 0.01% the price, and you can have one in your hand. Progress is amazing.

Probably not, because the strikers obviously had no leverage. The union officials knew exactly how this would go down, and they accurately believed that more subtle means of pressure would allow the workers to maximize their benefit.
