Current cruise missiles are optimised for long range but not for final target accuracy, they actually use onboard offline terrain data to cruise to their target. Accuracy of 99% is considered bad as it might mean collateral damage. Also final target is predefined and aborting or changing target is non-trivial.

With these so called "suicide drones", human operators can actions based on current situation, like, pinpoint the target based on realtime images, that actually means limiting collateral damage because of machine errors. which also gives them ability to abort if situations have changed substantially.

That works for me. “Consumerism” is unfortunate in that it carries baggage, intended and maybe unintended because it’s used to describe people’s attitude towards their buying habits in a negative light. Often this is rightly pointed out —cheap disposable things which can have upstream and downstream impacts that often offer poor long-term value to the buyer.
I didn't use their hypervisors, but I've had a lot of experience troubleshooting their networks. They've gotten a lot better at proactive monitoring, but we used to occassionally find some private networking paths that were having trouble, and until we narrowed it down, it was hard to find. (I dunno, I guess you can't just ask all the routers if there are any ports with errors, but sure enough, when they found the right port, there was usually a huge error count, or something)

The key thing is each IP 5-tuple (peerA, peerB, protocol, portA, portB) will always take the same path over their network (most likely a different path for return packets, when A and B are switched), so in order to properly probe, you need to probe on a lot of of port combos, and once you find a broken combo, you need to run MTR on those ports, so you can give them the MTR that shows the issue.

Or, if you can, have your internode protocol run on multiple connections and drop connections that are showing issues, and let a different customer file the tickets :)

Maybe I'm misunderstanding...

It sounds like your position is "everything in the 1st world has a downside so why bother". It is certainly possible to live in a first world in a more conscious, less impactful way.
Before I became a parent, I was always a believer in 'nurture' over 'nature'. I believed that our personalities and our behaviors were mostly shaped by upbringing and environment and very little by genetics.

Now, as a parent, I've done a 180.

My three-year-old has a distinct personality that clearly draws on elements of mine and my wife's, but he's been exhibiting little behaviors all his own since infanthood that have become more fully formed as he's grown into a little kid. In the moment, we didn't recognize that those behaviors were 'personality', but with hindsight it's clear that that's what we were seeing.

We do our best to nudge him in the right direction (sometimes very firmly), but like the OP and like you, we've come to realize that our job isn't to mold or shape him (or anything that active) but rather to be a set of guardrails that help to keep him safe and a step stool he can use to flourish into a fuller version of the person he already is.

Their phrasing is a response to your something most don't agree with, this comment doesn't reply to their meaning.

What they mean is, historically, the majority has not always been correct when it comes to ethical issues. That's different than arguing that majorities have always been wrong.

I mean, in an ideal world no one would ever die or be unhappy, but I won't pretend to be an expert on all the legitimate reasons that we kill things.

I should have phrased that as phasing out specifically killing animals for food. I fish myself, and I'm not advocating for any kind of drastic short-term change; over the long term, it's conceivable to me that use cases like recreational fishing could be addressed with AI robot fish and/or highly immersive VR/AR.
Agreed on all fronts except for how this is somehow relevant to someone trying to be better.

Like yes, we're pieces of shit, right. I'm at peace with it as well. Do we really need to drag others down when they try to rise above though?

I would love to see an IXIA or Spirent line rate RFC2544 test with an imix packet sizes. Most servers and OS stacks cannot do line rate 100G/bits today without a ton of tweaking. Netflix has a few blogs on it. In my current company we moved our NAS to 2x100G but the build servers at 10G and 25g (Ubuntu) cannot max a link in their normal operation (which includes pulling 4g VMs). There is some low hanging fruit here tweeting wise we can do but..

The NAS is TrueNAS with SSD and all the ZFS goodness, ZIL, etc. I can built hand crafted iperf streams between it and another 100g server that hit line rate (including overhead).

The reason for the 100g is there are racks and racks of BS that pull down their images so aggregate we can hit 100g with a fully non-blocking Clos fabric.
Not sure, but the intuitive way to do this would be tiling, BUT since the generation is SVG, it would need overlapping tiles that are then rasterized and cropped to hide the line endings.

It was pretty entertaining, sure. English in all its phases is a fascinating language. Hence why I hate to see it reduced to some kind of debased German :-) I like German, too. I wish I spoke more of it.

What's interesting is the gap of time between our last written Old English (Anglo-Saxon) and the time that Middle English was written down. In-between is a couple hundred years of time where the aristocracy spoke and wrote in Old Norman French. Interesting things happened phonetically in that time but we know little of it.

So I Believe I understand where you are going with the kids comment. At some point as a species we need to procreate, so what method / system would you recommend?
I think it's important to keep in mind that people can improve the situations you allude to without extreme measures and/or complete cutoff.

- if you're driving a car 1 mile each way, consider biking. consider biking one or more days a week, and use your car for the days you need to go on longer trips like for errands.

- buy higher quality clothing from reputable dealers that try to balance out externalities. learn how to repair clothing that fails, or pay someone who specializes in it. bonus opportunity to support a local business and a worthwhile trade/specialty.

- don't upgrade your smartphone every year. Apple iPhones can receive software/security updates for ~5 years.

- try cooking or purchasing a vegetarian meal once a week. try a vegetable you've never tried before. try to find a way to prepare a vegetable you traditionally dislike until you find a way that is palatable to you. (edit to add: try growing some vegetables, even just a basil plant or sprouts on your windowsill)
Nope, it's just a toggle now.
In Reactjs, the Ant Design library is built and maintained by a Chinese company called Ant Financial: https://ant.design/ I believe they're the second most popular React UI library on Github by stars

I believe the Chinese web world is pretty big on using Vue.js, Golang and React from what the top Chinese tech companies talk about in their blogs

Also I can read Simplified Chinese and the most popular Github repos in Chinese seem to be individual blogs, tech interview help and like frontend/backend guides. Github seems to be almost used as a content-based social network by Chinese users based around blogs and tech help

I am very happy that plant-based meat substitutes have come so far and are able to provide competition to the meat industry. Many parts of the meat industry have cited high demand as justification for unethical practices and this new competition should help do away with that.

However, I think the "meat is bad" sentiment bandied about by this article and Beyond Meat is painfully reductive. It's great for their marketing... for now, at least... but it is also a very divisive statement that will probably end up creating as much opposition as support.

Can't we just let both options exist? Margarine doesn't need a "butter is bad" campaign to stay relevant.
Beef is actually even cheaper in most countries without subsidies...
This resonates... from mine:

alias emac='emacs'

alias emasc='emacs'

alias enacs='emacs'

alias emas='emacs'

alias emascs='emacs'

alias eamcs='emacs'

alias eemacs='emacs'
It is pretty clearly not. This is clearly a piece on marketing, and it seems abundantly clear that it's written from a detached perspective. "Ethics" is presented as an issue of opinion only, and the focus is on how Beyond Meat harnessed changes in that conventional wisdom to sell a product. In fact, I'd say someone who actually believes in ethical vegetarianism has more to complain about in this piece than you do.

Basically: you're starting a fight. Don't.

Think this is contingent on what “bad” means, how extensive are the negative externalities of something like meat farming versus the creation of butter or margarine. In that sense, they’re not comparable examples.
It would be misleading to call an ICBM a drone.

It would be even more misleading to say an ICBM wasn't a drone, but that the "Vintage Racer" munition was a drone. As the article points out, some "drones" have better survivability than ICBMs do, but those aren't the ones the article is about.
Lots of skeuomorphism in audio VST/RTAS/AAx effects plugin, but you can argue there that it at least makes sense since they're designed to appeal to guitar/synth and audio engineering enthusiasts who are very used to having knobs to mess with.

CROSSTalk: Speculative Data Leaks Across Cores Are Real [pdf]
Yes, it is and I agree with you.

I worked in a lab where I had to reproduce others peoples code in Java. I never finished any of those projects.

For Example GPT-2 would need around ~$50k to reproduce from scratch. GPT-3 is probably a few orders of magnitude than that. How would anyone reproduce it unless they are a company? I've seen NVIDIA reproduce some results.

Also, most of the issues are you don't have the datasets and after the PhD students graduate and the professor gets a job your access of the datasets go away like bitrot.

The word "loitering" distinguishes it pretty far from that. It's also important that, unlike ICBMs, this is positioned to be something which would be used in more than theory.

This sort of paranoic fearmongering is exactly the sort of propaganda that pushes society towards that authoritarian corporate dystopia in which trust is forced by those in power, and which you have no control over. We are slowly losing our freedom to choose even whom to trust, thanks to this idea that these "multinational corporations" are somehow deities.

You highly underestimate the skill of the community, and how it only takes one person to find out and spread the news if something is amiss. Source isn't needed, and doesn't tell the whole story anyway. (See: Ken Thompson Hack.)

The corporation which has lawyers and knows exactly how to spin their spyware to carefully evade such laws?

Windows 10 would clearly be considered spyware 10 or even 5 years ago. Yet somehow Microsoft has convinced the general public that it isn't, and we are supposed to still trust them?

Edit: downloaded it to take a look. Appears to be written in easily-reversible .NET and not even obfuscated, so go ahead and analyse it yourself if you don't trust it. (If it was obfuscated, that would make my suspicion jump.)

Edit2: looks like people still think I'm wrong - go look at the binary yourself instead of blindly downvoting just because you don't want to do the thinking yourself. The more power you let them have, the more they will abuse it.
The B in ICBM stands for ballistic. That means they are mainly bound by gravity for most of their travel. Hypersonic drones on the other hand are far more steerable. Curious droid has a great video on the difference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0t06EkZJcM
From the link I posted -

> When licensing Oracle programs with Standard Edition One, Standard Edition 2 or Standard Edition in the product name (with the exception of WebCenter Enterprise Capture Standard Edition, Java SE Subscription, Java SE Support, Java SE Advanced, and Java SE Suite), a processor is counted equivalent to an occupied socket; however, in the case of multi-chip modules, each chip in the multi-chip module is counted as one occupied socket.

It doesn't get any clearer than that - it is per core. So that's significantly increased cost for pretty much most enterprise users with VMWare and high core count Xeons.
I can empathize with that perspective. I personally find the "guilt and shame" tactic less effective and more divisive which is why I tend to avoid going that route. However, there also is truth to the statement "meat is bad" if "bad" means "has negative consequences" and I think those negatives definitely need to be talked about, but I do think it is hard to strike a good balance between effectively and honestly stating the position while also not turning more people off in the long term vs. how many are convinced.
If we can eat foods that don't cause the death and suffering of other creatures, then that is objectively better than eating foods that DO cause the death and suffering of others.
Death and suffering are bad, although meat eaters will tie themselves in knots to try and pretend it isn't.
Another implication is that ethical consumerism is profitable, which is debatable. Most "ethical" products are chosen because they are healthier, such as organic food or green cosmetics, not because they are more ethical. Remember Toms shoes? I doubt that "synthetic" meat will be proven to be more healthy than regular meat any time soon given that there is still a lot of debate over whether or not meat itself is healthy.

"A writer is someone for whom writing is more difficult than it is for other people." -- Thomas Mann, Essays of Three Decades

As others have mentioned, deliberate practice is really the only ticket. I bet you write a ton of email, start practicing there. Or your text messages. The more you do it the more you'll discover things that work for you. Also accept that it takes a preposterous amount of time to write well. Reading books on the subject of writing by writers can be comforting in that regard. I'm thinking particularly about Steven King's "On Writing" and "Draft No. 4" by John McPhee.

Also, reading high quality writing is worthwhile. If you mostly read on the internet and you pick-up a really well written book the contrast can be startling.

One unconventional source of great writing I recommend is US Supreme Court opinions [1]. I find almost every single one to be very well written.

The implication is that plant-based meat substitutes are seen by some consumers as a choice that fulfills their desires for ethical consumption; therefore, the lessons learned from the market fit and economics of plant-based meat substitutes are relevant to the larger context of ethical consumption.
I've been trying to understand how it works, it looks like a lot of the math deals more with rotation and scaling. It appears there is a function for every object variation, and it looks like each one sets its own color, so I think you could change the colors of individual objects to see what they actually render. The object placement is too perfect, I'm betting the individual objects have a number of predefined places where other object would naturally be in relation, and then the the presence or variation of the object is randomized - and all the more impressive if something that simple yields such great results. I could just watch this scroll by for hours - nice alternative to watching fish tank videos while coding.
So what you're saying is that two-way communication right up until the final strike is kind of a recent thing? I wouldn't argue with the value of that, but most people don't really have the proper context to evaluate.
A lot of people here have some pretty solid writing advice.

Something you can do to passively improve your writing is to read. Honestly read anything you're interested in, but if your goal is to really improve a certain type of writing, read that. Then read something else :)
I often comment on my own PRs to explain alternatives or tradeoffs I considered. These aren't necessarily worth capturing in permanent documentation or TODOs, but can share knowledge or build confidence that I've considered various angles that might come up in a review.
