> And to your point about referee: the cop isn't a referee. They're just another fighter. And if they lose, there's no ref to stop the person from seriously hurting or killing them. Combine this with the fact that most cops are just average people with little to no hand to hand combat experience, aside from a few confidence booster sessions at the police academy.

This is a good point that goes over some of the misconceptions that people may have about the level of training and proficiency of police.

Totally makes sense that you wouldn't get the same capacity from the same silicon, or even close, given that SRAM uses far more transistors per cell.

But if you have issues scaling DRAM, and different scaling limits on transistor count / SRAM, it makes sense (to me at least) to start considering SRAM as an option (e.g. for lower latency, faster speeds, higher bandwidth transfers, etc). Just because you can't achieve the same capacity today doesn't mean there's no merit to it -- HDDs vs SSDs from a decade ago feels like the obvious comparison.

Supposedly [1] TSMC's 5nm process yields 256Mb on a 5.376mm² die, at roughly ~50Mb/mm², which would translate to a 3.5Gb die of the same size as the SK Hynix chip. Sure, that's no 16Gb die, but you could easily make 32GB sticks (assuming that you could just combine these chips in the same way as in DDR4).

I guess there's also a barrier to entry in that you'd also either need new hardware to deal with "SRAM sticks", or some sort of compatibility layer (a controller that implements the DDRx signaling logic, perhaps).

I think the uncertainty had more to do with the implosion mechanism than nuclear physics. The ability to simulate the hydrodynamics of an imploding sphere was obviously pretty limited in 1945, and while Los Alamos devised a series of pretty ingenious experiments to test how symmetrical such implosions could be made, for obvious reasons they had to use mock setups with metals other than Plutonium. So there seems to have been a fair amount of skepticism that such a mechanism could be made to work right up until Trinity.

It is only hyperbole to the exceptionally privileged, exactly mirroring the belief that internal police violence is hyperbole. It is or is not depending on who you are/where you live.

Many authoritarian governments in history and today exist because people desire security and fear the incredible violence exhibited by an external, dominant power. If you don't make sure this actually is hyperbole and check the abuse of power at home and abroad, the violence will one day (perhaps soon) come to you, along with authoritarianism. Not recognizing the cause and not seeing the already creeping trend in the face of all evidence is what's clouding people's judgement.

TL;DR (from [1]). Guidelines for the "best" URIs:

* Simplicity: Short, mnemonic URIs will not break as easily when sent in emails and are in general easier to remember.

* Stability: Once you set up a URI to identify a certain resource, it should remain this way as long as possible ("the next 10/20 years"). Keep implementation-specific bits and pieces such as .php out, you may want to change technologies later.

* Manageability: Issue your URIs in a way that you can manage. One good practice is to include the current year in the URI path, so that you can change the URI-schema each year without breaking older URIs.

What is incorrect?

COVID causes blood O2 to drop because it causes a viral pneumonia. Early stages of a viral pneumonia can be pre-symptomatic or entirely asymptomatic. Asymptomatic patients can still transmit COVID to others. Patients with low oxygen should seek medical attention because their pneumonia can get worse.

Your source says “Many patients with COVID-19 disease have low oxygen levels even when they are feeling well.” These patients have low oxygen because of COVID pneumonia.
This looks damn interesting! Very creative.

Retribution should not be a part of any justice system. As retribution is not justice.

Restitution, Rehabilitation and isolation should be the 3 goals of a true justice system.

Victims should have a path to restitution when possible (some crimes this is not)

Criminals should have a path to rehabilitation when possible (some crimes this is not)

For when the other 2 fail, Isolation is the final step, isolation means we isolate people that have been proven to be a danger to others and do not have the ability to be rehabilitated.

Retribution is just unethical, it makes the population of a system of retribution to be no better than the criminals they are abusing.

Support for retribution is a visceral reaction but holds no value or place if the goal is justice.

So many misconceptions here about DRAM. DRAM is miraculously cheap. The process probably costs about $1.50 to $2 per GB, the rest is indeed profit. That nets them maybe $4,000 per wafer - and that includes all the testing, slicing, packaging etc. An average CPU chip in your laptop is about the same size as maybe 3 DRAM chips which cost around $20.

DRAM runs on a separate process which is dominated by the difficulty of building the capacitors. These are roughly the shape of a pencil (long narrow hexagons) where the central structure which holds the capacitor needs to be etched to perfection in a process that can take days. The transistors underneath are, at that scale, about as large as the chad from a paper hole punch. The capacitors are just about as narrow as material science (limit to voltage arcing through the insulation layers) can make them so there is glacially slow progress in shrinking DRAM further. Meanwhile the transistors are at extreme limits of resolution for liquid immersion processing, as also are the lines needed to join the rows and columns. Getting those perfect requires very specialized and competent processing.

They are not easy, second rate circuits. They are a completely separate branch of the silicon world. Unfortunately since they don't scale much any more, current design methods were mature 8 years ago, the only way you get more of them is to build new factories. That means it is a seller's market in a game where building another fab costs $10B and will only succeed if staffed by really expert people. So, it is generally profitable. The 3 vendors cannot easily undercut each other since they all have roughly the same limits, and any attempt to flood the market takes 4 years to build and everyone can see it coming.

So there you are. DRAM is the pivotal technology of the current computer era. Fixing that will most likely require breakthroughs in fundamental memory technology - or a reason for demand to collapse.
> Huge companies getting conned by large consulting firms creates opportunities for startups.

Huge companies can go bankrupt. I can tolerate "creative destruction".

Governments will go very far out of their way to spread the pain before they go bankrupt. The Flint, Michigan "lead in the water supply" problem was downstream of the city's (and region's) economic collapse and bankruptcy. Detroit's current residents are very much overpaying for their utilities and other city services because of their existing long-term obligations.

I would much prefer we change government to be much more iterative and create contracts which ensure quality outcomes (not optimized for "butts in seats"), even if that means there is more total cost.

This is one of those classic, foundational documents about the Web. But it's rarely followed. Tool use has come to dominate the form that URIs take; tools are used both for delegation and to absolve humans from crafting URIs by hand. Switching tools frequently ruins past URIs.

Additionally, widespread use of web search engines has made URI stability less relevant for humans. Bookmarks are not the only solution to find a leaf page by topic again. A dedicated person might find that archiving websites may have preserved content at their old URIs.

Some of this is allowed to happen because the content is ultimately disposable, expires, or possesses limited relevance outside of a limited audience. Some company websites are little more than brochures. Documents and applications that are relevant within organizations can be communicated out of band. Ordinary people and ordinary companies don't want to be consciously running identifier authorities forever.

Those responses aren't rebuttals, but rather disbelief in the intellectual honesty or humanity of whatever is being debated.

The article isn't arguing that URIs don't change; it's arguing that they shouldn't. (The part involving judgement is elsewhere in the title—the word 'Cool'—so it can certainly seem like an assertion of fact rather than of value at a glance.) It thus seems to me that the response "in practice, URIs do change" doesn't undermine that point; your discussion of the need for some solution to the problem rather supports their point—if URIs didn't change, then there wouldn't be a problem to be solved.

(Or maybe your point was deeper, that one not only can't trust that the resource location won't change but even that the resource itself will still be available somewhere? That is true, too! But saying that archive.org is the solution is just making one massively centralised point of failure. That doesn't mean that we shouldn't have or use archive.org, but that we should regard it as just the best solution we have now rather than the best solution, full stop.)

A good agile process will not have an ironclad upfront definition of what is to be delivered in a large project. A process with that may not be waterfall, but it's definitely non-Agile Big Upfront Design.

OTOH, Agile is largely about managing risk and incrementally delivering value without overcommitting forward, so the contracting process with Agile should reflect that and shouldn't commit to a giant project in a lump contract.
