Charles Petzold's "Annotated Turing" is a book about Turing's article, which provides another approach to this problem. Turing machine, described in the article, is arguably a more - convenient? generalized? - device for similar areas.

I've worked for companies with large call centers, and anecdotally I don't have a single doubt about it. To close this gap computers need to be easier to use... these people aren't even at a skill level where they can reach the web.
Apologies if I've missed some part of the explanation that answers this. The way your previous reply described it, the benefit of HTTP/2 is loading smaller things earlier. But given that goal, couldn't the browser just prioritize JS/CSS files over images/videos for the same effect, without any new protocol that sets in stone some heuristic purely based on content size?
There is an interesting video about this in the "Rare Earth" channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUCiADFjQG0 (He has a more videos about Cambodia.)

You're just parroting free market propaganda and still have the stomach to dismiss the author as an ideolog.
I agree it's incredibly important to dig into layers under (and over) the one you're working at! I'm very grateful for the experience of building a simple unix-like kernel and a simplified TCP & IP implementation as school projects. And I'd encourage anyone to do the same with HTTP 1 or 2 or 3. The difference is that no one thinks that their educational/toy TCP implementation is suitable for production use, while people do seem to (mistakenly) think that about HTTP.

Don't know if they're still up but I remember there were a bunch of yikyak clones around the time it stopped being popular. Just weren't enough people in any of them, so I stopped them. Network effects and all.
I don't think most of it is "overreach" as more often than not Congress is explicitly ceding authority to the executive branch.

That isn't to say there isn't "overreach".
What if the construction workers just stack all the windows in one corner and pour all the concrete in the other? It must be just as good as building the house properly since they used the same amount of materials. If they just double the amount, the resulting pile of garbage will be twice as good as a functioning house.
He got his racist dogwhistle in during an election year, made international headlines, and sees no repercussions. How can this be viewed as anything other than a win for Trump?
The one thing I find iffy is that the current generation of Starlink Sats aren't supposed to do Sattelite to Satfelite communication, so the actual latency benefits around the globe aren't going to materialize the first couple of years. I'm really interested when they plan to have their service to be actually competitive latency-wise.

Google is the new IBM.

Saying to your boss that the VP of something is incompetent and made a crappy site will get you fired. Saying there's this new Tech at google coded by god himself will get you a new cost-center and a promotion.

For the company, it will turn out as nice as it turned out to all those places renting mainframe contracts well into the 2000s.
Before Covid I was living out in Phnom Penh. I adore Cambodia and its people who are some of the friendliest people I've ever met in the world!

The Khmer Rouge were a mixture of Marxism and Khmer nationalism. Black lives matter is a mixture of Marxism and Black nationalism...

It's very apt to have this article here. I'll always challenge Marxism because I've seem the results and what it does to people. My landlord was a child solider his mother a lovely elderly women who's only English was "hello" with a very toothless grin. But if children walked past she would go silent because when the Khmer rouge were in power if children heard you say anything which could be construed as wrong you'd be murdered.

The Khmer don't talk of post traumatic stress they call it 'broken courage'.

I've met so many people who's parents did amazing things. My ex girlfriends grandfather fled to Thailand as he was a teacher and considered educated. Her father worked the field during the Khmer rouge period afterwards who got an education where he could and put himself through medical school and became a doctor. He's one of the most incredible people I've ever met. My ex keeps a picture of him in her purse on the back in written my hero my father.

You do walk around and see old people and the thought does wonder in your mind are you a victim of genocide or a war criminal. The Khmer have forgiven though and should be an inspiration to us all.

Black lives matter terrifies me because I look back in history and I've seen what racial Marxism does!
It would be a huge improvement (and a weight off my shoulders as a driver) if the car could show you the confidence level it has in the current road situation. Eg. I took a tesla through the snow, and I wouldn't trust autopilot with my life in that situation, but when driving on 80 towards tahoe during the summer, it's a godsend.
The critical issue is that Firefox, Safari, and Edge all implement tracking prevention. When Microsoft switched Edge to Chromium, they implemented tracking prevention on top of Chrome, that Google refuses to implement because they're an ad company.

Note that removing tracking scripts and some ads significantly improves browsing speed and web performance as well. So even if privacy isn't your top concern, it's just... faster.

This makes Edge simply... a better version of Chrome than Chrome.
I'd hesitate to say there was anything idealistic about the Khmer Rouge: you'll find more idealism in the actions of Stalin or Hitler. It wasn't even a sincere outbreak of angry hatred: the leadership were all members of the educated classes they condemned to hard labour and pogroms.

1.5B MAU is not unreasonable. A majority of Chinese users are using it. It is superfluous when you ride the subway or eat in a restaurant. Everyone. That alone could be .75-1+B.

Then you only need a relatively small percentage of the rest of the world to reach that number.

Just because you can't see it, doesn't mean it is not real.
How old are you? I remember being a kid 30+ years ago going to the VHS store and picking out some crap and loving every minute of it. It's an experience.

Thanks! And I completely agree with the idea that more programmers should have a go at working with various file formats. I learned so much about binary file layouts through this one project.

Before writing this article I had no idea that JPEGs use Huffman tables. Now all those Huffman table lectures from college algos classes make sense. I was never told in that class that this is a major use case for Huffman tables. Maybe I would have shown more interest then if I knew this fact.

By exciting, I mean pushing out research and open source, which eventually makes it into products. I have yet to see anything serious or popular comes out of Amazon. Compare this to Google and Microsoft and you can see a clear difference
"well-meaning"? Are we still talking about the international student deportation order?
I think small classes and discussions (like in law school) are a different breed than large lectures. My view has always been that if the class is less than 10 or so students, attendance can be required. The students should be given the ability to email for an absence, no questions asked. In these cases, the success of the class is entirely dependent on students attending. If they don't, the class fails.

Military you're trying to teach a hundred things besides just the material, so I think it's really fitting there.
Here is a meta comment: having read this entire thread, it's pretty obvious that if even reasonably educated and intelligent people on a technical forum like this descend into complete disagreement then one can think what happens among the society and people at large on both sides of the Pacific and how easily it is to descend into a conflict.
Many companies have a team-selection process that starts after (and is separate from) the actual hiring, e.g. you might not know who the available managers are or if there even are any 'good' ones.
I have some experience in this area and the volume of these kinds of calls in a typical call center is substantial. Especially if your customer demographic is older.
Open access isn't a panacea, it's a baseline. The more cool stuff you can build on top of it, the better. Open access brings the opportunity for everyone to take a shot at annotating, organizing, and filtering knowledge.

Glad to hear that. :) IMO some content is just better suited as visualizations in the form of videos and images.
I agree, it mostly boils down to "human" or organizational problems. Technology or code problems aren't stressful in the absence of stress from the organization (time pressure / higher expectations than the team can deliver, etc).
That was informative and well put.

I assume the situation with airplanes is quite similar (I wonder what’s worse, actually).
It sounds like you're experiencing panic attacks.
I know they ended up working with high schools to limit access in certain areas. But I'd be really suprised if a college could legally forbid using the service.
You agree that loan sharks are immoral, but when banks do the same they're not immoral? It's literally the same behavior, but in a way that is "blessed" by the government (which includes bribery, I mean lobbying).

Hopefully it made people think about the current corrupt system we live in. They put band aids on the problems they have, without addressing the actual underlying causes, which means that things won't get solved.
The $2 bills are currency. He recombines them to create funny & thought-provoking situations, including encounters with local police & Secret Service, that test the boundaries of what's allowed & what's trusted.

What other definition of 'hacking' do you use?
For some remote places that may not matter as much. For example in the rural Rocky Mountains you are limited on internet options. This could still be much needed competition.
It makes it impossible to do mass marketing with prices. Best Buy can send a flyer saying "Xbox One Only 199.99!" to everyone in Illinois. But if they had to include tax, it would be 219.99 or 214.99 depending on which side of my town you live in because they tax rate changes.
The list of GPU options is stated in the tech specs on Lenovo's website. There's no configurator that I'm aware of yet.

The design of the system looks like it should be easy to open. A system like this is designed to be serviced and upgraded. Often, customers pay for onsite support to take care of those tasks, but I very much doubt that adding in a PCIE device would void the warranty.

The real question again is about ISV certification. If you are using a consumer GPU for professional applications, then you won't necessarily have the same kind of support from the software vendor if the application doesn't work correctly.
Not sure about Hyperoptic, but CommunityFibre (gigabit FTTP) also uses Huawei routers (and presuming kit in the rest of their infra). I can hands down say, as much as it was a shit router, it still was better than the routers I've been given with any other provider.
I came back here in a hurry, having just read that part... where did they get this from? Why on earth would they be interested in forcing ‘confessions’ out of people, just to execute them later?

Maybe my initial comment should be that this is taken out from [a book] that both Orwell, and the Khmer Rouge has read; which book would this be?

Hey, I can't link to it right now but there's a couple of Twitter threads about that card and some true USB3 1080p capable ones - they're about $50AUD on AliExpress. I still wonder why the manufacturer or seller filed off the names of the chips.

But they don't need to dos the whole country, just interfere up to the point of plausible deniability. They could do targeted outages for some UK firm at a stratetic moment or something.

Also in the case of an actual war, it's surely better to not have your entire nations communications under enemy control.
Yeah, I didn't appreciate this until I read about the survivors, but it's freaky to imagine that one day you go from living relatively normally, to being marched out of Phenom Penh at gunpoint by teenagers, separated from your family, and forced to become rice farming slaves.

And they were slaves, one story is about a person who was starving, just like everyone else, who dared to catch a fish that swam between their legs to eat. They were shot for that.

They also practiced eating the rich in the literal sense. For whatever odd cultural reason, they enjoyed eating human livers from people who were executed.

When the civil war ended, the king asked the people to return their guns. The Khmer Rouge kept theirs and intercepted shipments thereof, easily taking over the disarmed areas.
The cultural revolution is interesting. Yet another famine exacerbated by govt screwups is a lot less so.

Like you said, it's all about which side people are on. And I agree on pol pot. The only self-genocide I'm aware of in the record.
That's why social media feeds must use a dumb algorithm.

And actually went to Paris for schooling.

>Canada stopped producing pennies in the fall of 2012. [0] The sky didn't fall.

True, but part of me still misses it. Not for any real functional reasons. The rounding issue is really nothing and seems to work out pretty evenly from what I can tell, not that I've really bothered to try and figure it out.

I guess it's more sentimental reasons really. It feels odd not being able to count cash to an exact cent. You can now only hold cash up to the nearest 5¢, again not a big deal, but it just makes cash feel more second class. Then there's things like those fountains people would toss pennies into, or the whole find a penny pass it on for good luck thing, or the various phrases involving pennies. 'A penny for your thoughts and such'. These are all things that'll kind of vanish from public thought.

I dunno, these are just some things i've thought of over the years since they got rid of pennies.
Harvard and MIT don’t come to mind? (Mass. Gov Charlie Baker is a Republican)
Of course, nobody would argue otherwise. The point was at least some of request was invalid by the law in Belgium. So a reasonable person might read the article and conclude "one side didn't abide by a partially invalid request" and "another side submitted a partially invalid request". I am lacking on details of the issue at hand, but it's clearly stated some of the request is invalid.

We have seen the consequences of invalid takedown requests in other situations (e.g. DMCA), and we should appreciate companies not just taking every takedown request at face value.
During those years I did all of that stuff. I used Xmonad and had a very large config. I did deep dives into both vim and emacs configuration.

When I got accepted into school, I realized that all had to change. I couldn't spend hours configuring things anymore. I had to focus on getting work done quickly. The Mac gives that to me with minimum fuss.

I think you are definitely not the target. The Mac is not designed for people to treat their own computer as a hobby, the way I did with Linux for a decade. It's designed for getting work done and being as seamless and unobtrusive as possible, for as many people as possible.
9 might be okay if the effect size is large enough. (If the study was pre-registered there should have been a power analysis to determine the sample size given the hypothesized effect size.)

Thinking about this for a minute. It's got to be a matter of the DRM system. They're anticipating that they could collect any data from your PC, and are trying to cover their bases.
And, so what?
Yes, it is pretty standard to package an access point in with the modem. No idea if they will just include the router in the internet price, or rent it monthly on top of standard charge like how some ISPs do it.
There are situations where the system is 90% sure that something is correct but needs the pilot to confirm. For example, you start flying off your planned course. Should it correct automatically? Probably not, there might be a reason the pilot is doing this.
If by "connect" you mean the ethernet out of the starlink router connects to the WAN port of this wireless router, then you are correct.

Starlink uses totally different frequencies than what this device is approved for.

People keep saying things like this, but is there any proof it works? Sure, the 24 hour news channels will bounce around, but as a vote-winning strategy it's done very poorly. The Republicans lost the House in 2018. Trump's never had to contend for reelection himself, so his "distraction tactics" haven't been proven.

I use quotes because I've stopped believing he has tactics. At most, he does things impulsively, hears how it's spun by lackeys, then adopts their rationalization himself. Maybe he'll keep it in mind the next time he decides something.
I've seen a few streams of people who are like this, and they seem to do ok. One of the pidgin devs migrated their mercurial repos from bitbucket to their own self-hosted environment, live, on stream.

I think the personality of the person has a lot more to do about whether they keep the attention of their viewers. The ones who seem to get things done seem to speak out their internal dialog.

Are you sure? I'm pretty sure it says that can come preconfigured with Linux :)
Slow Loris Attack
(AINAL) No I don't think you're correct, which is what I (and others) were trying to explain. Which is also why MIT and Harvard (and many other universities) sued ICE. Here, copy paste from another comment:

> 19. Plaintiffs have standing to bring this case. Defendants’ actions will cause an imminent, concrete, and irreparable risk to Plaintiffs’ ability to achieve their educational missions unless halted by this Court.

> 20.Plaintiffs also have standing to assert claims on behalf of their F-1 visa-holding students, who face the imminent, concrete, and irreparable risk of harm to themselves, their families, their educations, their short-term and long-term health, and their future education and employment prospects if Defendants’ actions are not halted by this Court.

What you're missing is universities are making their classes online not because they're offering online education, but because they're forced to do so in order to protect students and faculty (including F1 students) from a pandemic. F1 visa specifically gives students right to protect themselves from such risks.

If universities switched to remote education e.g. to cut cost or to experiment with online education methods, then you'd be right. But the argument here is that universities do this because students and faculty face irreparable damage or death, and therefore there is no basis to deport to F1 students.
That was my experience with TS maybe two years ago - at this point project scaffolding tools are good enough to generate sane output that I spend a little bit of time upfront but then keep plowing away. Maybe I got better at it as well - but I haven't kept up with TS news in a long time and I don't feel like I'm missing out on stuff or encountering things I don't understand.

I've written >50k LoC of TS in last few months for sure (doing a huge frontend migration for a client) and I can't remember the last time I googled anything TS related. Actually I remember - a month ago I wanted to know how to define a type with a field excluded, took 30 seconds of google.

Meanwhile the project started out as mixed TS and ES6 because most of the team was unfamiliar with it and there are a few dynamic typing evangelists - we ended up going back and just using TS all over the place, the complexity introduced is minimal and the productivity boost from good tooling on product of this scale is insane.
I'd counter that just because colleges care doesn't mean you should. Math in particular it's quite possible to pass a class without really understanding it. I'd wager that most students who took AP Calculus could not give a good definition of a limit. Indeed many math professors would much rather have students repeat calculus in college than blindly accept AP credit. Even if this allowed you to take more math classes, that wouldn't be much help if you don't know the fundamentals.

Also gap years don't have any impact on the level you come into college. If anything I came into college far more advanced in CS than my peers because of my gap year.
