This sounds like a more plausible explanation for why Huawei succeeded.

Simply because of unlimited support and funding from the China central government, in order to get independent technology Research and Development.

And plus, the financing for foreign countries, is also super important. There was talk about some African nations, only interested in buying Chinese products, simply because the Chinese provided favorable financing terms. Terms which the western countries refused to do.

In this case, the western countries wanted to make as much money as possible from one deal. Whereas China played the long game, and chose to make less money per deal, but had to strike a lot more deals, to make their money. So, China made their money in volume.

It seems there are different goals at play here.

The countries in the west, have their national champions, and their own governments support them at a holistic and policy level. And each company tries to compete with each other to win a bigger slice of the pie.

Whereas in China, their goal, is simply for technology independence from the west. So, they are willing to throw as much money at the problem as possible, in order to achieve that goal.

This also harkens back to the atomic bomb analogy. That once the technology was proven to be scientifically possible, then it can be independently achieve by a foreign government, if they put enough time, money, and people at solving the problem.

And here, it seems Huawei did just that.
For the Vive series, there are external trackers that can simply be attached to any object:

https://www.vive.com/us/accessory/vive-tracker/

These obviously require some way to fix the tracker to the object, but otherwise I don't see any technical reason it couldn't be done.

The more practical issue is simply that you're now moving a heavy object without being able to visibly see where it is relative to yourself, the real floor, or any stationary objects in the room. If you drop it, or anything at all glitches with the tracking, it's a safety risk. I agree with the other commenters here; I'd wait to even attempt this until we have something closer to real consumer AR. The restricted visibility in current VR is not worth taking that chance.
Does someone know what the problem is with the intrinsics? Or is there a problem? The author states that this breaks his debug build for some reason.
Well, the original quote is more about making plans. Georgia is at war with Russia: who will win? You can -- and people very much do -- try to set up a situation with a massive payoff for you in the unlikely event that Georgia wins. But the maxim is there to remind you that Georgia isn't going to win.

Interacting with a bookie is a whole different context than interacting with reality.

The day to day and dictionary definitions of prolific contain no indication of quality. Mozart is probably the best known prolific composer. In all the artistic fields I'm aware, prolific is a complement, and orthogonal to quality. There are both prolific geniuses and prolific hacks.

There will always be insurance companies as long as they can formalize a bet where they expect people to pay more in premiums than what they expect they need to pay out.

As long people get a feeling of security, there will also be people willing to pay more in premiums than what they expect to get out.

If people start gaming the system, and DNA testing become very accurate in predicting the future (current commercial DNA testing is not even close), then what will likely happen is that big payouts will go away. It will have enough limits, caps, restrictions and conditions in order to rebalance the risk assessments in favor of the insurance company.

> Germany is about to get rid of wearing masks in stores. That's like turning off the firewall because the attack is over. It's preventive, so you need to wear a mask before sth happens.

There were 140 new cases in Germany yesterday in a country of 83 million. In my city of 3,5 million there were 17 new cases. At what point would you say it's safe to not wear a mask in stores?

I had the privilege of seeing him live a few years ago. It strikes me how, despite his world-wide-acclaimed genius, he managed to remain so humble and reserved.
It took decades for the world to finally recognize his greatness (he only got a honorary Oscar in 2007 and finally in 2016, at 87 years of age, the first Oscar for a soundtrack), but it did finally happen. If you have 2 minutes, look for the video of the acceptance speech. It's difficult to avoid crying.
The balance is probably around 90% the car and 10% the driver. In the years of RB dominance, a subpar driver like Webber almost got the championship. OTOH Alonso lost a decade in Ferrari and McLaren while being, tied with Hamilton, the best driver in the grid.

The 10% of what the driver adds to the mix is what makes Hamilton champion instead of Bottas.

After witnessing how "professionals" act behind closed doors, the difference is merely a mirage, in order to not affect the business image.
Nice tutorial and here is the online game: http://demo.nothingtohide.cc/

I remember seeing a nice web page where you could play around with lights and walls in real time and see the results. Something like a lights and shadows on-line real time simulation, but I can't remember the address and couldn't find it by searching. Anyone knows the page I'm talking about?
You are right - we just wanted to kickstart and will work on our own for sure to add more content. What are your top links with respect to scraping?
I agree completely with all points, though it's nowhere nearly as entertaining as it was up until ~2007. I mean there have been only a handful of GPs that were interesting over the last few years. Coincidentally yesterday's GP was definitely one of them. I mean it's not often you see almost half the cars break down.
Does anyone have a copy of the letter or a link to it? I'd like to see the data supporting the claim.
If magnetism pervades space, can interaction with these fields generate force for propulsion? These fields are weak but what about extremely powerful superconducting magnets? Even if the force is small it could add up over long periods, and since no mass is needed it would be a "massless" drive that does not violate any physical laws.
I think we should get away from our computers, because Internet made this issue worse, and it's continuing to do so.

> "unwise" reads like a threat

reads like. I asked you to clarify but all you've done is dig yourself in, ironically on a post about providing mea culpa. If you don't wish to clarify, that's your decision, but please show some awareness in the way you write as what else should one conclude other than you really wanted someone else to shut up? The absence of any other explanation and your unwillingness to avoid clarifying or providing an apology and accepting it was a mistake is unhelpful.

What's unwise about it? I guess we'll never know.

Do u really feel an average/top driver can strategize during the race?

The race engineer has X10 data, X10 mental bandwidth, and X10 domain practice (that's his day job!)

There all these radio moments (Hamilton "how r we behind them?" after spinning out in Germany etc) .. which really makes it clear that the driver focus is very local (both spatially and temporally), as it should be!
That's a nice idea. I agree that we need social networks that are designed around fostering good discussions.

However, it would be a good idea to not only approach this from an optimistic angle but keep a pessimistic one in mind by asking:

"How would a malevolent actor abuse my design to manipulate public and/or indiviual oppinion?"
> People also judge others by past behaviors.

But they are very selective in doing that. Even when the same actions are done in the same context they will use different measures for different people based on their sentiment toward them. And that just adds to the bias and fuels the cycle. As explained by this simple but accurate picture [0]. They see China and and their hackers as enemies. Do you think they see the NSA and by extension their own country as an enemy? Discarding (unwittingly) half of the context makes it a lot easier to assume they have the moral high ground.

Propaganda doesn't mean it's a lie, just that you take the same truth and shape it into an opinion for the people, depending on what you want to achieve. And it's a tool used by every superpower.

It's fun implementing a BGP speaker from scratch. I implemented one about 15 years ago in Java which was designed much like this library. It was proprietary code which we used to advertise programmatically-determined routes to our edge routers. Connecting to a router, walking through the state machine changes, and debugging unexpected behavior (from both misunderstanding the RFC and from finding bugs in vendor implementations) was a great learning experience.
Would you be able to leverage any of the work that's being done around so called "neural ODE's"?

Routing optimization only really works at massive scale, otherwise waiting times are just getting too long. Chain's like Dominos or Pizza Hut have the advantage of a single source, all managed by the same company, using the same tools, systems an processes. Companies like Uber Eat or Deliveroo are using multiple small sources (restaurants) to deliver multiple small destinations with small order numbers. Can work, once everythig is automated as ch as possible (near impossible without an operating system for small restaurants) and at huge scale (locally, within normal delivery driver's ops radius). All despite competition. Without taking expenses like marketing and so on into account. Not sure how these companies are going to make money.

Rust has a philosophy of easy machine and human parsing. ECMAScript-style `(…) => …` requires that you get to the => before you know whether the (…) is a parenthesised expression or function arguments. With `|…| …`, you know you’re dealing with a closure immediately because there’s no unary pipe operator.
These fields can create forces, but they can't do work unfortunately.

I didn't know they even supported scsi, I knew about the old BOT-protocol and the huge limitations for harddrives over USB, and for that reason I've always avoided them whenever possible with the assumption that the basic limitations of the protocol was still true for 3.0 drives.

This does put USB-drive in a better light for me. I might event buy UASP supported USB 3.1g2/3.2 SATA-controller and do some testing myself.

I usually try to reach for a bus-connected controller which usually mean thunderbolt today for external enclosures (expensive), but it would be nice to build a portable DAS-array that can be connected to any device with USB-C.

The grandparent is wrong. Unsafe doesn't disable safety functions. From the big book of Rust Unsafety:

The only things that are different in Unsafe Rust are that you can:

- Dereference raw pointers

- Call unsafe functions (including C functions, compiler intrinsics, and the raw allocator)

- Implement unsafe traits

- Mutate statics

- Access fields of unions

https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/nomicon/what-unsafe-does.ht...

The point is, unsafely calling `get_unchecked` is what's bypassing the range check feature. Not Unsafe itself.

I think the author called _mm_load_ps() on a pointer that isn’t 16-bit aligned. Either change that to _mm_loadu_ps() (which also works on unaligned pointers but incurs a performance penalty), or make sure your object is aligned when doing the heap allocation (there’s a STL function called aligned_alloc() in C++, probably there’s something similar in Rust)

The JavaScript Technical Interview Guide (400 Questions)
Hi devs especially junior devs! For the past 5 months I've been super focused on writing a technical interview guide for juniors who want to break into the web-dev industry. Since a solid grounding in JS is paramount to clearing interviews focused on web applications,

Why?:

I've been a coding bootcamp instructor for the past 4 years, and some of the questions that I've been asked are:

Will I get a job after this?
How many projects do I need to complete in order to start interviewing?
How can I test my JavaScript knowledge?
How should I prepare for technical interviews? What will I be asked?

Circumventing life issues to get employed!:

The best way for junior devs to circumvent the issue of not having enough experience/projects and still get employed is to do plenty of coding exercises (including on old and newer ES features) without having done whole projects on them. This demonstrates a practical understanding of core and advanced JS concepts.Often people have to balance multiple things while they learn to code including part-time jobs. Therefore, they're on a time crunch and may or may not be able to commit to doing projects. I've faced this with students before. They have committed to learning to code but life just gets in the way.

There are also people who leave everything including employment in order to learn how to code. The more time they spend out of webdev employment status means the more they dip into their savings and deplete their bank balances.

This technical guide is focused on circumventing these issues in a practical and straightforward way. The basic premise is that you read a section, practice the coding exercises and then move on to the next section.Therefore solidifying your base at each step. Moving you from basic to advanced concepts.

Topic:

Foundation
Objects
Arrays
Functions
The DOM
DSA

I am 75% through the guide, and on schedule to release it soon!

I absolutely agree with you, but I'd like to point out that singling out "young programmers" here does not do this topic justice.

This also goes for certain programmers that have been in the industry for decades. And if you deal with one of those, you'll find that they are even less likely to change their practices, so I'll take an impressionable young programmer to convince any day of the week.

Of course, this topic extends to many other practices, such as using descriptive variable names, writing good comments and documentation (instead of the Captain Obvious approved ones), designing good APIs,…
