I had a similar case that I helped a relative with. They had a similar word in their business name as a foreign (popular at the time) baking company. My reading in Australia implied they had no real case either, the standards for Trademark infringement are relatively tight and case by case (see https://www.findlaw.com.au/articles/2064/thats-crazy-john.as... for one case where the industry is the same and names are very similar but branding is not). The notice was apparently triggered by an application for a local Trademark which tripped their alarms.

But as with you, it wasn't worth the fight. We got a cheap legal aid person to draft a letter saying we thought they didn't have a case but we'd play along if they covered our fees for renaming the business and updating stationery/website/etc. In the end it worked out OK and the business was renamed. I think she made a slight profit if you don't factor in the stress.
Seems like they should have stopped ULA from forming in the first place then, right?

The press release quotes I've seen on the topic were high on "eliminating redundant work" (aka competition).
I'd categorize things a bit differently. The chips all have an octal encoding, although the 6502 groups the bits from the left (so the encoding is even less useful). (The strange thing is these chips are always documented in hexadecimal, which obscures most of the structure.) The Z-80, like the 6502, uses a PLA, while the 8068 uses a weird hybrid PLA-ROM for microcode.

All the chips have a lot of internal structure to their opcodes, since certain bit fields specify the ALU operation, register, etc. Overall, I'd say the 6502 is the most structured, both because its instruction set is simple and because they didn't have backwards-compatibility to worry about. The 8086 has a lot of special-case instructions wedged into random spots, as well as a lot of inconsistency. For instance, sometimes bits 5-7 specify the register, sometimes bits 2-4, sometimes bits 3-4. And then there are the multi-byte "group" instructions tossed into the mix.

Bummer, and a real shame given how seemingly common regressions are in this space. Not my specialization, but anecdotally over a decade or so, I've encountered scenarios on MAX 7000 and Cyclone II (Quartus II v9.0 builds, v10.x breaks), Virtex-7 (Vivado v2018.3 builds, v2019.1 breaks) and Virtex-5 (ISE v14.6 builds, v14.7 breaks).
Why start this from scratch ? Why not build on top of TypeScript ?

I get the single pass rationale but isn't it possible to integrate a bundler into TypeScript compiler ?

I'm just wondering because Microsoft has a decently sized team of paid engineers working on TS for years now - what are the odds an OSS project outperforms them at implementing their own language (which they also evolve with every release)
> A possible subtext to what you have written is that your employer (google) was mandating that you keep using the device at home as part of your employment... but that is outrageous and I would like clarification as I feel it cannot be true.

The requirement to use a Google device at home has never been imposed to the best of my knowledge, at least unless this individual was working on the product. Even then they would not be required to have it on unless they were actively working on it. If they were working on it, then they should know its capabilities and trust or distrust would be irrelevant, since they would have actual knowledge instead.

Also, the devices are not recording all the time. Presumably this experiment added the ability to treat fire alarms as a hot word, in support of the feature in question. That doesn't mean that Google has access to recordings of every conversation.

Also, there is no way anyone would ever be permitted to run the type of conversation analysis that the GP proposes. Far more benign analyses are rejected all the time due to privacy concerns. It's unlikely that any single person could even run such an analysis due to various access controls (e.g. the inability to access logs as a person-user, system-enforced requirements to run only checked in, reviewed code over logs). Even if a person could run an analysis like this as a rogue, it would be extremely risky, because they would get terminated immediately if it were ever discovered.

Also! Identifying useful, novel product ideas is beyond even Google's ML capabilities.

I feel so torn on this project. On the one hand, I want to root for sebmarkbage, who has done so much for the field.

On the other, as someone who used to do some "JS platform" work at a tech company, I really don't want Rome to catch on. Yet Another Standard is really painful for the ecosystem, and while it's obnoxious that you need so many tools, at least we've finally settled (mostly) on good answers for each vertical. TS, ESlint, Prettier, Webpack, Babel.

Now, would it be nice if there were an underlying engine/server that all tools could use to share an AST without reparsing everything? Sure, I guess. Would it also be nice to have one tool that wraps the others, at least when you're getting started? Yes, though I think create-react-app has blazed that trail pretty well.

The thing is, all those tiny little details from Prettier and ESLint and Webpack really matter – Rome will take years to achieve the number of lints that ESLint has, and even more years for the community to agree on which ones matter. Similarly, every corner-case of prettifying will have to be considered anew, and every edge case of bundling rebuilt or reimagined.

I love to see a talented person take on something insanely ambitious, so I wish him luck and hope he proves me wrong. But if Rome succeeds, it'll be a big pain for a lot of people as they try to port everything over, and for the community as they grapple with dueling standards for how things should be done.
Yeah, as far as I can tell this is actually the exact opposite from what was described - in reality people didn't really care about GMail scanning messages for advertising that much back in 2008, but it turned into a big deal later due to worries about Big Tech and then Google dropped it.

I've made five trips to India for business, the most recent was in 2017. The system that was instituted just before my last trip caused me major problems, as suddenly two things happened: foreign credit cards were no good for payments online (I had to get a colleague to buy my Taj Mahal ticket online and pay him back with cash), and it was suddenly much more difficult for some people I was trying to pay to accept payments in cash; restaurants and hotels could still get it done, but for others it was a major problem. I hope they have these issues straightened out by now.

The US is in withdrawal from 4 decades of policy that intended to bring China out of the 3rd world and into the first. The motivation was to reduce the threat of nuclear war and at the same time, create a major new market for trade.

Those positive intentions did not foresee what China would actually become, and even if US administrations all along could have foreseen it, they may have persisted, believing that reducing nuclear threat was worthwhile, even with the current adversarial outcome.

The line that got crossed that I don't believe anyone anticipated was the genocide of entire ethnic and religious populations. Those horrors have a moral weight that counterbalances the threat of nuclear war. We have no choice but to completely decouple, and what's more, may still find ourselves in the shooting war we were trying to evade.

Personally know a business owner whose employees refuse to come back full time. They are still (were) getting the $600 booster despite earning 80-90% of their previous take home. And getting a small “normal” unemployment benefit from the state.
Business owner reports as required and tells the employees that what they are doing may not be the best idea.
The original idea for this tax structure is for land. Namely, a piece of land can only be used for a limited set of purposes at a time.

As a society, we want land put to valuable use. We don't want a piece of super valuable land (could be producing food, etc) that is dormant simply because someone refuses to sell.

But we also don't want to be the arbiter of what counts as valuable. So you state the value of the land and pay the tax on that value. If someone else can extract more value, they can buy it from you at the stated price.

I think this sort of tax makes less sense for intellectual property, because unlike land many people can use the same idea at once.
There are also your state benefits. Which in texas aren't that great but combined it would come to ~1150 a week for me. And on average it was about ~800/wk here from what I've read which is ~40k a year. Normally it'd be 9,800/yr for that group.
Right. If you're living in NYC/SF/LA/Boston it's easy to have a skewed perspective on income and cost of living. Take a "typical" city like Columbus, Ohio: the average rent for a 2-bedroom apartment is around $1200 (https://www.rentjungle.com/average-rent-in-columbus-oh-rent-...), which is quite affordable if you and your partner or roommate are each making $30k/year.
If you have a bootstrapped company successful enough for VC-funded entrants to copy, you're already set. Other than ego, why wouldn't you just keep on truckin' along, taking sweet disbursements from your profitable company or even selling it without having to split the pot with investors?

In many cases they aren't seeking it out. It just shows up in their social media feed. They get a mix of real news, fake news, satire, comedy, all tossed together and it is mix up which is which. Plus they get a lot of it indirectly, because it was liked by a friend, and that indirect version is even less likely to be clearly labeled.

Worse, for a lot of people their social media feed is their main or even only source of news.

After spending way too much time debugging issues with frontend tooling, I am all on board for this glorious monotool future. We’ve definitely gotten some progress out of the massively micropackage approach that Webpack/Babel/etc use, but these days it really feels like we’re passing a complexity limit and we need a new approach. The fact that CRA will refuse to startup if you have another version of Babel installed anywhere in the tree, is a pretty good clue that the current approach isn’t scaling.

The economy is not some abstract separate thing. It is all of us producing the goods and services which make life possible, or at least worth living. We do not have infinite resources.

His statement:

>> “Considering that 70% of those who have died of covid are over 80 years old, quite a few of those 6,000 would have died this year anyway. That makes covid a mere blip in terms of its effect on mortality

My comment:

>> If it's not a big deal for people over 80 to die because "quite a few [of them] would have died this year anyway".

Though I should perhaps not have paraphrased, I believe my comment captures the feeling of the doctor's statement well. Yes, he is making a point about mortality rates. Also, he's making the point that 6,000 people dead is a mere blip on mortality because most of them would be dying anyway. His entire post is a declaration that Covid-19 and the deaths from it are not a big deal because most were very old and on their way out anyway.

Right, it was TTL logic - no microprocessor (too expensive at the time), no software. Also, Woz's design wasn't the one that was ultimately used:

> Atari was unable to use Wozniak's design. By designing the board with as few chips as possible, he made the design difficult to manufacture; it was too compact and complicated to be feasible with Atari's manufacturing methods. However, Wozniak claims Atari could not understand the design, and speculates "maybe some engineer there was trying to make some kind of modification to it." Atari ended up designing their own version for production, which contained about 100 TTL chips. Wozniak found the gameplay to be the same as his original creation, and could not find any differences.

Curious how much is attributed to the continued adoption of pay-for-delete (PFD) by these debt buyers/factoring/collection agencies.

I noticed the trend start in 2018. Midland was one of the first to adopt it, then PRA a few months later.

For those unaware, paying a collection account was of little to not benefit for improving your credit score. The negative tradeline(s) would still be present for the typically 7 years (less, depending on type of debt and state in some cases).

Put another way, once you were in debt, there was little to no incentive beyond traditional "morals" that these folks would play to for you to pay. That, and legal action, which is still a highly effective source of revenue for these outfits.

Most that are sued either ignore legal service, aren't aware of service by publication in obscure notice ads, or don't show up for the designated day in court, awarding a default judgment to the collector. From there, they can garnish, seize, and follow your ass for years, in most cases for a debt they paid pennies on the dollar for in an excel document auction of sorts.

In the last few years, most of the debt buyers and collection agencies will delete the negative tradeline when you settle for less or pay in full the amount owed. This was a previously a "one in a hundred" chance you'd see discussed ad nauseum on debtor boards; that is, including a pay-for-delete stipulation in settlement negotiations.

If you're in debt, read up on your rights, and how to play the game with these folks. Whether you can pay it easily or not, knowledge in the processes is incredibly valuable.
Most EMR/PMS integrations are just “hacks” and not a fully supported API from the vendor. Some vendors protect their systems better than others b most of them just require a ODBC (SQL based) connection with an high role user's credentials.

First, nobody eats wheat just raw. Usually it's prepared in some fashion so that it can be eaten, and cooking, like baking bread, is a form of engineering.

As you mention fields, they are in fact an ancient invention to allow farming, and most importantly, an artificial invention. Nobody gets a full belly from the 3 plants in a window pot. One has to do large scale agriculture to feed large numbers of people, and this has been conducted for millenia. A field is at the very basis of agriculture. In order to make land arable, we've cut down forests, moved stones, drained swamps, leveled terrain, built irrigation systems, etc. Basically engineering work.

Fields do look like nature, but they don't represent nature. Wild type nature looks different.

TLDR: Humans are engineers. Always have been.
