> If they leave, are they your enemy for life then?

(New) Relationship with strangers can be in one of the 3 categories:

- Neutral
- Friend
- Enemy

OP is moving the company into Friend category (from Neutral). I don't know what he'd do if they decide to move back, but if they declare the company as an "enemy" then that creates a perverse incentive where people in Neutral category would refrain from becoming friend because that risks them becoming enemy.

So to be prudent OP must move the company into 'Neutral' category again otherwise they won't get future 'Friends'
the problem with environment footprint is that moving it to other country solves nothing and often makes matters worse (due to more relaxed standards). We all live on the same planet.

Do economic sanctions work alter the behaviour of the targetted government?

I was of the understanding the effectiveness of economic sanctions are generally debated, and they tend to have unintended consequences.
How did you find quirky headers on other websites? Did you use a script?
I worked on a bash script that downloads all of Slack messages to my local computer. I have a few workspaces (some community workspaces) where I don't have admin permissions and a few free tier workspaces where messages are limited to 10K. I use this script to download chat messages to my computer everyday so I can grep them later at any time.

It's on github: https://github.com/t-tran/slack-chat-backup
I'm not sure that the decision is A xor B. Further supporting a fiercely nationalist permanent-warmongering country that also has a long-term track record of abusing human rights, also operates concentration camps, also operates torture prisons, also has a 5x higher per-capita population imprisoned based on ethnicity than China does is not that much of an upgrade in my view.

It's great news that TSMC is making more cutting-edge process fabs on more continents, and will benefit all/most of humanity no matter which country they're in. Having more sites with this production ability/capacity is simply a good thing, no matter what happens with China, Taiwan, the US, China/Taiwan, or China/US. Hopefully they open more in further countries, so that this can stop being a strategic bargaining chip (no pun intended) for the warmongers, and can just be a steady and available supply of fast, low-power chips for anyone who needs or wants them.

The anti-X, anti-Y politicization and nationalistic bluster that comes along with these sorts of things isn't super relevant, interesting, or even that on topic.
I use port knocking and I don’t take it seriously. Anyone using it in a serious setup is batshit. However, for fun home projects where users install that giant php based file sharing program, or that IoT camera, why not? They don’t have automated intrusion prevention, etc. They can’t understand the code to determine it’s quality, etc.

When the next 0day hits… will it be enough to protect them, yes. After all, they’re not a target and the automated attacks won’t affect them.
This does not make sense. TSMC is from Taiwan, which is to all practical extent independent from China, politically and economically.

This sounds like a page in a playbook for a company that wants to maintain their monopoly.

I drew a boa constrictor that had eaten an elephant, but it just deemed it a hat.
Neat. I implemented functionality like that for a media player, but it was years ago. The main issue we dealt with was the poor quality of the data, so I think we ended up with a combination of autodetect + store the original (incomplete) metadata so the user can always revert it if they find something wrong. Not a great UX, but GI/GO I guess.
Would you happen to have a source for that?
I think the point is that PRC considers Taiwan as part of broader China, and this move makes that statement less likely to be taken seriously. Which is good.
Does anyone know if this was a an acquisition or acquihire? If it’s announced it would seem like Apple wanted the news to be known.. on the other hand nextVR is over 10 years old, and given sports has stopped, they are probably on the ropes.
From a systems-administration standpoint, it's nice to be able to easily sift out the random bots and drive-bys from the more personal probes that maybe have a human at the other end.

There are myriad bits and bobs of software and services that promise to do anomaly detection in logs, but an easier approach for now is to just move ssh off 22. It affords basically zero extra real security but makes any subsequent login attempts more worthwhile to look at.
Hopefully this goes better than Foxconn in Wisconsin.

This has racial connotation only because India is mostly populated by brown people. Other than Pakistan and Bangladesh - no other place has a clear majority of what you would call brown people.

That said - Indian cultural quirks definitely play a role in how majority is raised and how they operate. Economic situation and a very clear way to get a well paying job makes people try to get into these fields.
IT doesn't have an insane filter like medicine, which is another way to earn a lot in India. Thus you get a lot of people that try to get around the system.

I had two cases happen in India to demonstrate this:

One of developers lied about their qualifications for the previous 3 years. He was supposed to be working for Oracle for 3 years, but we found out that he worked at multiple companies for 3 months at time.

The other one was one of three brothers, but only one of them was somewhat competent and would do the interviews... while the other brothers would actually try to show up for work.

I could not make up this crap.
Let me gently challenge you: you've moved SSH to 7163/tcp. You see a pattern of login attempts. Now what, and why?
I don't really agree with any of the sentiment here...

The Trump administration has shown that "friend for life" means "for as long as I'm getting exactly what I want, or think I am, and otherwise you can see yourself out."

What benefit is there really? This fab will have about 5 jobs, and a bunch of robots who could be anywhere on earth.

Why should the answer be 0?

We have an intuition that 0 is the identity element for addition, so it makes sense to treat it as the starting point for many things.

However, when we look at multiplication, 0 looks very different. Instead of preserving the other value, as it does with addition, multiplying by 0 changes the other value in an information destroying way (e.g if you know that x * 0 = 0, you have no idea what x is). This property of 0 is so distinct from the other numbers, that when we consider the integers (or reals, or complex numbers) as a structure that only has multiplication, but not addition, we typically exclude 0 from consideration.

Since (discrete) exponentiation is a multiplicative process, it makes sense to consider it in terms of the integers under multiplication; and so excluding 0. When we consider integers under multiplication, we notice that 1 has the same properties that 0 had under addition. Namely, 1 * x = x for all x. Given this, it makes sense to treat 1 as the "empty" element, the same way you want to do with 0 in additive contexts.

Sigma-Delta is just an adder which is equivalent to a comparator thus it might be cheaper actually:

module pdm(clk, level, O);
parameter N = 16;
input wire clk;
input wire [N-1:0] level;
output wire O;
reg [N+1:0] sigma = 0;
assign O = ~sigma[N+1];
always @(posedge clk) sigma <= sigma + {O,O,level};
endmodule

I’ll grant you that PWM is a bit more intuitive. I bet there is a more thorough comparison between them but I haven’t seen it.
They already operated design centers and the fab wafertech in Camas, Washington.

It’s not wildly surprising, given that all major USA chip players will now be using TSMC, including Intel.

>When nothing naughty is detected it assumes all is well.

This is the root of my question: I would presume that Google would have better systems than it appears to have to detect apps that violate their policies. Otherwise, why have them?

I understand that Android is more open as a platform, including the ability to side load your own apps. But I think they deserve criticism for not protecting their users from this "Creepware". It's one thing to download some APK from a website; it's entirely another to have it provided to you by a company you should be able to trust.

It depends on the local laws. Some states in the US give university police the same powers invested in "real" police officers, but many limit enforcement to ticketing, monitoring, and/or detainment until the "real" police arrive. I don't know what the local law is in Toronto, but this seems relevant.

Using data-driven approaches to assess "root causes" and improve the (flawed) court system and the (flawed) justice system sounds like a good idea. Sending someone to a substance abuse center (or other rehabilitative vector) instead of jail sounds like a massive improvement over the typical one-size-fits-all jail "solution" to crime.
60 has nice properties, in that it is evenly divisible by 2,3,4,5,6,10,12,15,20,30. Helpful as a base since you can divide it into smaller units easily (monetary, measurement, etc).

I see this in a lot of websites i visit.
I usually inspect them just out of curiosity.

Some of them get pretty clever,
like a hidden element that says something funny

The funniest thing I saw, is I was looking at an API from a top-tier tech company and the person who wrote the software had message in it containing words of frustration. Like swear words.

But, the weirdest thing I usually see is how the flagship of some top tech company can't make their website responsive when all you have to do is change a few of lines of code.

Or when they upgrade their UI/UX and they just broke a lot of features.
This is tremendous news, I've been waiting for this kind of investment in Africa from big tech for years. I remember talking to an engineer from AWS that helps builds their data centers about the challenges of building data centers in Africa and why none of the big tech companies have barely made any investments inside the continent outside of SA. He mentioned that a much bigger problem than the lack of energy infrastructure that everyone assumes is the biggest hurdle is the lack of connectivity, both to Africa and between countries. I hope this project paves the way for next phase which is interconnectivity between countries, which could finally lead to the digital economic revolution really take place in the continent. You can't have a 'digital economy' with no data centers.
I haven't seen any of these yet, but ironically, working for the company is probably the last thing on my mind if I'm looking at HTTP headers from a site since I usually do that when I must use it for some reason and need to figure out why it's not working or how to more easily access it (it is often a SPA which shouldn't be, or otherwise something designed with "Chrome is the only browser you should use" mentality.)
Awesome idea! I like mashing up services!
> I’m not sure which brands TSMC makes for.

Basically all of them, to some extent.

> But I can promise you if there is an option to buy an USA made AMD, I’d pay a premium for that.

AMD spun off their own foundry years ago (GlobalFoundaries) and still uses the for some things.

FWIW though TSMC already has a US fab, but all their high-end processes are going to remain in Taiwan.

Modern chips are free of conflict materials? How do you even start to come up with a basis for the statement? I also don't understand the connection between "conflict materials" and toxic substances. I thought it was common knowledge that making chips involves lots of extremely toxic chemicals though.
> I think the point is that PRC considers Taiwan as part of broader China, and this move makes that statement less likely to be taken seriously. Which is good.

Well, you should tell that to the US government, who believes there's One China and the capital is Beijing.

When Trump got elected he actually took a congratulatory call from Tsai Ing-wen (president of Taiwan) which utterly incensed the PRC. That aside, it's been the position of America since 1972.

For what it's worth Taiwan also believes there's One China, including all territory claimed by the PRC and that the capital is in fact Taipei.

With that all in mind, any major world power has been paying lip service to One China and practically ignoring it, but the PRC exerts its influence over smaller/weaker countries such as recently flipping Sao Tome and Principe in violation of the no-poaching agreement in the One China accords. In reality, no big power believes they're one country, and operates accordingly. No small power does either, but substantially all back the PRC because the West has largely ceded its influence over smaller nations to the PRC.

I use Vim Vixen [0], which has a "b" command (for "buffer") to search all tabs in the current window by URL and title. Also tags "last tab" with #, so you can easily jump back and forth using the command. Pretty sure other such vim-style addons have similar features.

The quote is not about logs making you unsafe.
The quote is about ssh login and connection attempts on port 22 which clutter your log files.

Assume you move ssh to another port, say 23. In that case, anyone trying to connect to port 22 would find a closed port and the connection would fail, on a layer before login attempts get logged.
Speaking as a mathamatician, and replacing "float" with "real number":

We really like like to pretend that the integers are a subset of the real numbers. As such, we really like to pretend that the function pow : real X int -> real is a restriction of the function pow : real X real -> real.

Speaking as a programmer, I really expect the effect of casting between numeric types is only precision.

If pow(0f,0) != pow (0f, 0f), then you break both of these assumptions.

I rented this house for about 10 years for <$1000/mo (2br, 1ba, now I own it), and there are still apartments/condos in this neighborhood for that price. We don't have an ocean, but we have some of the most beautiful hiking in the world, the city is extremely cycle friendly, and almost every biome you could want is a few hours drive max from here. It's really a great city.
