Thank you for proving my main post under this topic correct, where I state that people will choose what they hear and respond to that, and not respond to what was actually said. Total failure of communication.
Yes, it is discriminatory. But discrimination isn't illegal; discrimination against protected classes is. Examples of things hiring personnel can discriminate based on include political views, your weight, your sexuality (at leas here Texas), credit history, any bankruptcies, and unemployment.
The algorithm, obviously.
If it doesn't work for your body type that definitely makes sense, but this one does at least have a big cast iron mechanism that lets you lean it forward or back and can be screwed in and out to raise or lower the height, which is nice.
Civil Rights era leaders were killed for attempting to unite black and white labor. Your theory has evidence, as far as I'm concerned.

This seems like a good overview of the situation to me; I had previously heard Assange mentioned but never really knew what happened. Thanks.
But he was "the most trusted man in America". People across the political spectrum trusted him to reliably and accurately report what's what. There are figures like that today - Joe Rogan comes to mind - but I don't think anyone could become so trusted while adhering to the speech codes outlined in the article.
Kind of missing the punch line there. Who did they save through their efforts?
There's more to it than its authenticity. That's what I meant by the "regardless" part where there are details of specific behaviour in the said university but is purely based on the author's perspective. First, there's no evidence to support that. Second, there's no other side of the story being told from the concerned parties accused by the author. A lot of claims and a much fewer evidence.

It looks like the Windows equivalent is called a "Side by side manifest". It has to be opted-in-to from both the shared object (.DLL for Windows) side and the loading application, though. On Linux, it just works - it is idiomatic to include major version in SONAME.
This is very similar to my own open-source project ToneMatrix Redux!

I love what you did with the adjustable column length.
Is the open-source alternative bidirectionally interoperable with the closed-source version (i.e. it can decrypt the proprietary encryption and the proprietary version can decrypt the FOSS version)? If so, then that's handy.
Ages ago my next older brother told me that when he smoked pot he liked to sit and think because he had deep insights, and the right answer to what he was considering was clearer than in a sober state.

He didn't smoke around me and I hadn't (and still haven't) smoked pot. One Saturday night he came home and it was obvious he was pretty baked. That is when he dropped one of his insight bombshells on me: Stevie Wonder is the Frank Sinatra of our generation.

I had the same though you just made: maybe it wasn't that he had clearer insights, just the perception of it because other thoughts that might contradict the conclusion didn't cross his mind.
Author here: I use AMD64 and x86_64 interchangeably (with a slight preference for the latter when publishing something, since it has more Google results than the former). I agree that the proliferation of names is an unfortunate mess.

FWICT, "x64" is mostly limited to Microsoft. I wouldn't mind that one being thrown out.
Not surprising. University of Texas has something like 55,000 subdomains. I don't think 50 full time sysadmins/cybersecurity people could keep that secure.

Also interesting of note, why does UTexas's name servers point to University of Illinois's name servers?

Could be nothing. After all UI was where Firefox was developed originally by Marc Andreesen and others around 1994. This is also where the Apache web server was created.

It's possible we could see a reversal like we did in food, once people catch on and realize how empty it all is. The health food/organic craze came out of a disenchantment with the old guard. Realness and integrity became the thing to market yourself as.

Of course, many companies just changed their marketing without changing their actual product. But the consumer taste changed, at least.
That's the mentality that leads to toasters running Linux. For many applications there's absolutely no need for ARM MCUs and all their added complexity.

Plus for the hobbyist at home, PIC still comes in DIP formats which is handy for breadboarding or soldering without the added difficulty of SMT.
This a great point, surprised you received no follow-up comments!
Something like the Polyend Seq sequencer or (if you want to include sound) the Synthstrom Audible Deluge?
I don’t agree. The defining difference between the left and right to me is the propensity to advocate for change.

The cultural left is a hodgepodge if smaller issues under one larger umbrella. You’ve got people who care about racism, climate change, money in politics, access to abortion, etc. All of whom are trying to change society in some way to deal with big problems we have. As a result, it’s incredibly messy. The groups don’t always overlap well nor fall in line.

On the other hand, the cultural right is more or less defined by an unwillingness to change society. They like it as it is, and are generally afraid of change. They’re scared even more by the sight of the lefts constant infighting and imagine that it would be chaos if they got their way. Plus abortion and gun control alone keep many of them in check.

They’re generally not defined by a vision for a better America, just a whiter one that doesn’t really change from what we’ve got.
After all this time Mindstorm still does not (officially) support Linux. I find that somewhat frustrating.
Morality is a set of rules about what's right and wrong.

I'd say that we won't win or lose depending on whether we pay or don't pay. Root of the problem is legislature and regulation that allows infrastructure to be badly maintained without tangible repercussions.

If you make a school not-thunder-proof and it burns down during a thunder storm, how's that different from a ransomware attack that abuses an unmaintained X? Because blaming thunder is foolish, but blaming a hacker is understandable? That could be a source of some of the confusion.

What is the threshold for UI component libraries describing themselves as "accessible"> Is it running through automated tools, such axe, is it an audit by an independent third-party group, or is it manual testing by actual users who regularly use screen reader tools?
> Memory is not very useful when you're not using it, and has a very low cost when you are ... CPU cycles cost power when you use any amount ...

Of course important to remember that increased memory utilization results in increased CPU utilization. The range of degradation is quite wide: Increased cache misses (which cost a significant number of cycles), access patterns not in line with the prefetcher, and increased TLB misses.

It's for good reason that one of the most potent optimization techniques for hot code is to reduce the memory footprint and memory access.
> FWICT, "x64" is mostly limited to Microsoft. I wouldn't mind that one being thrown out.

Yes, that one particularly, since 86 and 64 don't even have anything to do with each other. One is a product number and the other is a word width - why did they replace one with the other?!

House tech investigation seeks CEO testimony in July
Here's a use case you may or may not be interested in. Security Research.

As a security analyst, when I'm trying to figure out what a malicious script / executable does, it often involves searching for weird strings I find in files that seem like they would be pretty unique. Or even specific sets of strings, even if it isn't very easy.

Google used to be awesome for this. Now it is still the best that I'm aware of, but it has gotten gradually worse over the years. So basically the best tool for a job is one I would describe as infuriatingly bad.

I think the problem is that it does too much to try to protect a person from malicious stuff on the web. It also does too much to guess what you might actually want instead of giving you what you asked for.

Probably the biggest single thing that Google has done to screw it up is that it no longer respects quotes. Maybe there's a workaround but I haven't figured it out. 10-15 years ago if I wrapped something in quotes Google would give me exactly what I wanted. Now its very finicky and 70% of the time it gives me what it thinks I want. These guesses are almost always wrong.

That being said, there is also a usefulness to being able to search for a code snippet or another string and get things that are very similar, even when they aren't an exact match. I think having multiple modes would be useful.

I think there might be some overlap between what I described above being useful for security researchers and what might be useful for programmers.

An old friend of mine is one of the authors on this. Their instruments generate a lot of data. I don't know if this is the case for their array in Australia, but when he was working in South Africa they had to carry hard drives out of the country because there wasn't enough fiber capacity out of the continent.
> Turing machines only model mathematical functions. They cannot model anything on my list.

Since turing machines are turing complete, and existing general purpose CPUs are turing complete, this is trivially incorrect.

wat?
The Smalltalk community is an artifact of the pre-Internet days. See Forth or Lisp for the same result. Communication was slow, in the form of publications and you couldn't get your hands on actual code (which probably wouldn't run on any of your machines anyway).

See the many Unix clones before Linux. The difference is that Linux came along when you had GNU code to avoid having to implement ls, ps, etc yourself, you had many people with 386 PCs and you had the Internet to work together without having to be all in the same room (not to mention not having to set up a company to sell CD-ROMs, though other people did that for Linux).

By the time languages like Python and Ruby came along it was a different world and they could be more Linux-like in terms of community and less QNX/Coherent/Idris/BSD/Irix/AIX/Solaris/...

Putting a splintered community back together is not an easy task.

Note that Squeak, Pharo and Cuis deviate from the ANSI Smalltalk standard in the same ways (Traits, {....} syntax for runtime collections).
Pipenv is a bit deprecated, Poetry is the current recommendation (and what I use).

> double click the .deb file and install with no hassle

That sounds like a great way to finally introduce the concept of trojan-horse malware to the consumer Linux ecosystem.

You should almost never be installing a raw .deb, anyway, because packages form networks of requirements/versions/etc. It’s probably outdated, and might even be for the wrong version of the OS—or even for the wrong distro!

The proper GUI workflow, I think, would be for third-parties like Google to offer for download some sort of file representing just an apt PGP-code-signing-identity + source list; and then double-clicking it would open it in Software Center or the like to do the GUI equivalent of apt-add-repository: asking you if you want to trust $ORG and follow the http://org.example.com apt repo. You’d say yes, and then `apt update` would get triggered, and new packages would appear (hopefully highlighted as such) in the Software Center list.

I’m kind of surprised things don’t already work this way. I think it’s because—other than Chrome—there’s pretty much nothing consumers want to install on Linux that isn’t best installed from the distro’s first-party package repo. For Debian/Ubuntu at least, I can’t think of a single PPA or vendor apt host—other than Chrome’s—that solves a consumer (rather than developer/administrator) use-case.
How does it compare to Mathematica?
exception messages are a pretty solid starting point, totally agree.

searching the most relevant versions are painful! I spend a lot of time in Swift where Xcode automatically suggests the newer version/syntax but wish VS code & others did this too.
Good question! I would disagree that intuitionistic reasoning is blessed as the "universal reasoning". As you say, there are other even weaker but still useful systems around.

It is just a fact of life, without any room for philosophical preferences, that the largest common denominator of all toposes is exactly intuitionistic reasoning, not more, not less.

But there are, besides toposes, also other kinds of mathematical structures which can be regarded as mathematical universes! And the largest common denominator of those other kinds can be more or less than intuitionistic reasoning.

Going up, we have for instance models of ZFC. By definition, their largest common denominator is ZFC, so more than intuitionistic reasoning.

Going down, we have the so called "arithmetic universes". Their largest common denominator is "arithmetic type theory", a predicative flavor of intuitionistic reasoning. (To a very rough first approximation which doesn't at all do justice to this intriguing topic, "predicative" means "no powerset axiom". The terminological convention is that by default, "intuitionistic reasoning" refers to impredicative intuitionistic reasoning.)

And then there are a couple other kinds still.

That said, toposes with their impredicative intuitionistic reasoning do occupy a sweet spot. They are sufficiently general to yield useful applications in several branches of mathematics while not being too general.

> But today Ellsberg is celebrated as the patron saint of whistleblowers while Assange is locked in a cell in London’s Belmarsh maximum security prison for 23 and a half hours a day.

Ellsberg was charged with a bunch of crimes too, which would have resulted in 100+ years of jail time. He's considered a good person now because he defended himself and won. It should also be noted that he very much supports Wikileaks.

It should also be noted a big difference in the cases is that Ellsberg leaked documents he already had legal access to, and was therefore a whistleblower. Assange leaked documents that he had to illegally acquire first (either with help or without, but either way he was in possession of stolen goods). You can't get whistleblower protection for leaking information you didn't have legal access to.

I totally understand why Assange is fighting extradition -- it's highly unlikely he would be treated fairly or get a fair trial. But I doubt he'll ever be broadly considered a hero until he defends himself in court.

Germany was in “lockdown” mode (in quotes because their lockdown never actually needed to be that strict due to proactive reaction) way before requiring masks, that’s why they’re such a good case study

All the things you’ve listed as potential confounding variables are much more likely to have gone in the opposite direction due to lockdown fatigue. It’s extremely unlikely that everyone suddenly got much more vigilant two months into the pandemic

Anyone know why we’re treating Julian Assange like the worst criminal that ever existed?

“ Those two shootings were a thousand times repeated, though the reports were rare in admitting that the victims were civilians. More usually, the dead were automatically identified as ‘terrorists’ caught in the act, regardless of evidence to the contrary. ”

Here’s an argument against Leetcode. There are real patterns in our work. That quote is a real pattern in law enforcement. Test for the patterns, not how slick someone is in a contrived scenario.

We seem to be stuck in deja vu world. The same problems over and over, everywhere, with an unwillingness to fix or acknowledge it.

Complete shot in the dark, but I wouldn't be remotely surprised if there's a `TCHAR arch[3]` somewhere deep in MSBuild.

"x86" fits nicely in there and they couldn't refactor it in time, so they just decided to go with "x64".
I don't think that's quite correct, unless it can be proved that they somehow participated in the actual hacking of some target, they do have legal access to the docs, because receiving such is not illegal.

Otherwise, the entire press to whom such things are leaked should be in jail with them.
Yes. And I'm glad that it was only an attempt and not a success. Even if I agreed with their motivation, it's a tactic for dipshits.
