> I have trouble with such a sweeping statement considering the volume of freedoms available and successfully fought for and gained in the US.

You have trouble because you've been brainwashed by endless propaganda. I also used to be troubled as well. Also, my point was that those freedoms weren't why the founders fought for independence. The real reason was land/wealth.

The reason for the discontent wasn't "lack of freedom", it was britain forbidding western expansion of the colonies. We wanted land, the british wanted good trade relations with the native americans who supplied them with valuable fur.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Proclamation_of_1763

The american colonists were "proud englishmen" enjoying the freedom/liberties of all englishmen for nearly 150 years before the independence war? So why the sudden shift in sentiment? Because of wealth.

"Freedom, liberty, etc" are just war propaganda. Just like invading iraq to bring "freedom and democracy" to the iraqis.

Their example green-screen photo shows two chairs against a green background. I would love to see how their technology would work in their equivalent kind of setup. If you have two people sitting in chairs, talking to each other, then presumably the chairs will be static and will most likely be deemed to be part of the background, to be cut out.
Yes, a very good point. I am assuming the tables are quite large due to the workload. If it's large enough to give a benefit to large pages in reduced DTLB misses, it's likely too large for warp-local memory :)
That's....Not beneficial, at least in terms of what is going on behind the scenes.

1: App knows your location - most likely is profiting from that

2: App can see how often you visit $place, all for the cost of a few 'sale' items.

3: More extensive profiling can possibly occur, depending on what data the OS allows you to access.

As apposed to:

1: Walk to shop, no smartphone, see discounts inside shop.

There's 0 reason this information needs to be presented via any form of 'notification'. It could literally be done by $shop.com/discounteditems.txt.
One thing that has always seemed strange to me is you have to prove you have an address to access many parts of society like banks and schools. This leaves out the homeless and people who have a residency but for some reason (bad landlord, staying at a friend’s place and not on the lease, etc.) can’t prove it in a way that satisfies the authorities.
The things they have to do to maintain golf courses in other climates is sad as well.
The US use of it isn't the concern, we can regulate it and I do not see a reason for many agencies to have the tool or its like. What people should understand is once this tool exists then oppressive governments can either get hold of it and create their own. So go pick your favorite country known for oppressing people and you can guarantee this or similar is in use.

So what this leads to is further work on not allowing information of any sort off a phone unless approved by the user and features that let them know which apps have sent data and how much. Kind of like how tracking is being defeated on the desktop.

Pretty much the end run is burner phones/prepaid but any organized individual or group of who does not want to be tracked would or should already have gone down that route. Of course that only works to a point, where a large number of them congregate can provide agencies a lot of information as well.

No, it's just unpopular with mainstream-users, and kinda dying for newssources.

As a longtime user of at least 15+ years now I've seen some strong dying of feeds in the last years, To the point that I'm thinking now aboubt alternative ways to scrap data from my sources. I think most existing feeds are more a case of legacy code in popular frameworks. Also, there are many new sources growing which are build without RSS for commercial reasons. So having alternative source-scrapers is a neccessary anyway.

Exactly this. Answer: they were too lazy to collect the returned units and clean/prep/rebox them for resale. The whole discount for recycling offer was just designed to encourage more sales, they didn’t care about the recycling bit. Maybe they should just... reduce their prices by 30%?

Side note: will there now be a market for buying used Sonos devices dirt cheap just for the discount in buying new devices? Or will Sonos only offer this on the first sale.

- UK government secretly changes its own rules on arms to Iraq

- encourages a company to ship such weapons to Iraq

- they get caught by UK Customs

- this gets all the way to the trial and potential jailing of the directors

- UK government (in particular, Kenneth Clarke) directs suppression of vital evidence through "Public Interest Immunity Certificates"

- Judge refuses to go along with the coverup and jail innocent people, and the whole thing blows up in the newspapers.

I think it could be easily attributed to the fact that most non-native speakers learn English at school by studying its grammar in written form, where the two words are distinct. Native speakers, instead, learn English as their spoken language, where the words sound basically identical to each other.

Like most Garcinia supplements, this one uses HCA. It's a rich term for Garcinia Cambogia's concentrate. HCA originates from the bark of the organic product, henceforth the meaning of Garcinia Cambogia separate. Be that as it may, the industry standard is to utilize a convergence of 60% of this fixing. All things considered, we are satisfied to see that Nulaslim Garcinia utilizes this sum. What's more, there is proof that HCA can help hinder fat addition. All things considered, we don't discover anything exceptional about Nula Slim Garcinia. What's more, we don't care for it, they state you can get more fit without work. So we generally suggest the No. 1 Garcinia Diet.

Consider your body's response to various recipes for a second. In the event that you are delicate to new over-the-counter painkillers or migraine drugs, you might be touchy to another enhancement. All things considered, its absolutely impossible to know whether you will have any symptoms until you've attempted an equation. So in the event that you wind up utilizing the Nulaslim Garcinia pill, be cautious. Watch for peculiar changes in your body. Also, quit utilizing the equation on the off chance that you have any symptoms. The equivalent goes for this Garcinia item. It doesn't bode well to constrain you to utilize something that makes uneasiness. So watch your body and deal with yourself.

One of the requirements for Open Source Software according to the Open Source Definition is that you can use it for any purpose: "No Discrimination Against Fields of Endeavor". It makes sense to interpret "open-source data" the same way. The problem here as I see it is not the way the term "open-source" is used, it's that there should be legal safeguards preventing personal information of others from being shared as "open-source data" without their consent.

I think what Sonos did there was fairly ok from a customer-interaction point of view, but bad from the environmental perspective.

There is a difference between bricking a device and offering a trade-in program, or offering a trade-in programm. The former does not allow you to continue using a PURCHASED device (your property), the latter allows you to continue using your property or OPTING for the trade-in programm. Sonos didn't kill the devices without the customer OPTING for the purchase of a new one. I guess it's kind of bad UX, but an offer to the customer.

From an environmental perspective its obviously bad. Bricking kills reuse in a second hand market and is an insentive to take working devices out of operation.

Yet, its not the first sketchy thing I remember hering about Sonos and I am glad I bought Teufel multimedia systems https://www.teufel.de who I have no recollection of pulling any of these moves.

I agree and, if you are mistaken, I'd have to observe that this is a spectacularly unclear way of communicating an increase.

The meaning of "two times faster" as "twice as fast" is certainly the way such a statement would generally be interpreted everywhere I've worked.

It is of course possible that the meaning suggested by quietbritishjim is archaic British, but I certainly don't believe it's current: I've worked in various places Cambridge and London for the past 18 years and, as I say, have never encountered it.

Coronavirus Dashboard (View on Desktop)
I had a similar insider story being recounted to me recently about one of the previous worldwide outbreaks (I think it was SARS).

The French administration at large was extremely reluctant to allow remote work, even very occasionally, if at all, purely by policy. Then the outbreak happened and people started calling in sick.

But when you're calling in sick, chances are you've already been contagious, and so the body count started to go way up, until people started asking to work remotely instead because it was obvious their work could be carried remotely and they just did not want to become sick, because it just made sense.

Which was denied. Because policy.

So people started calling in fake sick (sometimes with direct management being complicit) and worked from home anyway. And then upper management realised that... it worked! People that were marked as sick (but were not, this was a thinly veiled secret) were actually working, and quite efficiently to boot.

And ever since that outbreak the policy changed, and remote work is now a thing. Maybe not like big-R remote, but at least it went from an outright systemic impossibility to being possible.

> "at least 70 confirmed cases and 10 deaths."

This low number of confirmed cases combined with the high number of deaths, suggests there are hundreds of undiscovered cases still out there. Most countries seem to have a death rate closer to 2%, but in the US it appears to be a lot higher, which suggests many cases are not represented in these numbers. That, or it's become a lot more deadly. Neither is good.
> because you have to fetch it from RAM, unless the problem is small enough to fit in cache

... might have to...
This is a massive accidental experiment on the effectiveness of remote work in general.

A lot of entities (here in .it, besides companies: public administration workers and education workers) are turning to remote working, either willingly or unwillingly.

I really hope we'll all do a good retrospective after this emergency is solved and can finally challenge our own assumptions.
What annoys me even more is that I keep using this comparison in a wrong way despite knowing better. BTW, what do you say if you made something twice as fast? Once faster?
Not disagreeing with this but I would argue that logical inconsistency here is that nothing is faster and so using the word is what breaks the math.

For example you also wouldn’t say -0.5 times faster, it just doesn’t make sense.
