> To increase the printing resolution, the additive manufacturing industry may need to devise a completely new printing process. Currently, inkjet 3D printing provides among the highest resolution features for 3D printing PCBs, but it remains to be seen if this process can be improved to provide resolution less than 1 micron.The future of 3D printing integrated circuits will likely adapt a photolithography process or functional self-assembly process to produce integrated circuits with competitive resolution.

I thought the whole appeal of 3D printing is tool-less manufacturing. Photolithography typically involves using photomasks, which is not exactly suitable for prototyping or low-volume production.
Thanks for the tip. I did consider Ebay, but at that point, I figured it was more trouble than it's worth if I bought them used. Ebay doesn't exactly have the best reputation.
> Has it been tested in court yet?

No.

Assuming the index of 144 total ASNs is correct marked BY, there are a handful of cloud providers/university systems (that I can count in one hand) that might have their own connectivity, but anything remotely advertised as eyeball goes through "Beltelecom" or "Business Network Ltd" (which in turn goes through "Beltelecom" or "National Traffic Exchange Center" (60330))

At a casual glance, look at how Beltelecom is one of the very, very few that has any international peers just based on the flags: https://bgp.he.net/AS6697#_peers

Then look at the others:

https://bgp.he.net/AS12406#_peers

https://bgp.he.net/AS60330#_peers

https://bgp.he.net/AS25106#_peers

This is similar to to Iran's ITC/TIC (there's a handful of them, pop in 12880, 49666, 48159, etc. onto bgp.he for a quick look) where they are the in-between to international peers and domestic peers.
I used Ansible for the cluster in the article, PXE boot seems great but the learning curve is steep enough for me to put it off for the moment.
Now there's a sentence you don't see everyday.
I mean it’s hard to understand what’s going on here.. it’s probably a coincidence that China’s 13th 5 year plan included trying to dramatically grow their domestic semiconductor industry and now their 14th 5 year plan wants them to become a dominant force in that area. Yea just total coincidence, people get hacked all the time.
Yup, I'll bet airports and airlines won't cut corners to make sure profits keep flowing.

> Airbnb had to fire 1/4 of its staff

It's not so much "had to fire 1/4 of its staff" as "fired 1/4 of its staff preemptively because by the time you actually have to fire 1/4 of your staff, it's too late". As a bonus, if it turns out the cuts weren't necessary, they look really good going into the IPO because their biggest cost (labor) dropped by a lot.
Exactly, you cant even read past the title to pull out the most important part (hint: the definition of the word "new" isnt the most critical thing to talk about)
This looks like a masterpiece of static analysis. You can make any number ludicrously big if you slap a 20% annual growth rate on it and then assume it'll keep going at that rate for hundreds of years.

Real life follows logistic curves, not exponential curves. Things grow exponentially-ish and then plateau as they run out of room.

> even Wikipedia has struggled to get by with only donations

This is not true, they just write their donation pleas to make it seem true because they raise more money that way.
I have seen code based that were following this principle, but nobody realised they were writing the same thing for the 5th time.
> researchers at the Air Force Research Laboratory and American Semiconductor recently 3D printed microcontroller SoCs from polymers on a flexible silicon substrate.

Then in the source:

"we took silicon IC chips and thinned them until they became flexible but retained their circuit functions."

So no, they did not 3D print an SoC from polymer.

Also, the chip manufacturing process is already, in a sense, additive (you deposit layers of material on each other). Unless the author is proposing printing billions of gates and wires one by one, I don't see where this is going. And if that's the case, the cost structure would exceed the traditional process many times, even if you are trying to make just a single chip.
> Also, how do you even know if you've improved dev productivity 25% if you haven't even improved your own functionality-delivering at any rate

It really depends on what kind of improvements you are talking about but if someone measurably decreases the time it takes me to land a PR by improving CI/CD systems then its really easy to say that such improvements massively effect developers in a positive way. Also opened ticket to landed code can be looked at more broadly and be measured and optimized, as can downtime.

Hi, I’m X. You can edit audio incredibly fast with Studio Cinematic. Take this:
<audio playing in app> “When I, uh, saw the other people and uh, I didn’t know how I would find my friend...”
And make this:
<audio playing in app> “When I saw the other people, I didn’t know how I would find my friend.”

Etc.

Also, the audio playing in the background was pretty loud- when you began speaking in the ducking example, the background music didn’t seem to duck quickly enough. Good luck!

I think that the only reason to use airport wi-fi is when you arrive from abroad and don't have a local SIM card yet, and your existing SIM card is for a plan that does not provide data roaming.

Otherwise, the mobile internet is vastly superior. It's even superior when it's the slow and expensive international roaming data plan. Airport's wi-fi can end up equally or more expensive and slow; I tried, both in Europe and in the US.
If you work for big enough receivers, you can tell them to do it right or you won't do business with them. I guess I was spoiled.

Wow! What great timing. I've been working on CRDTs for the last couple years and realized the structure we're settling on is similar to ECS. Last week, I figured I'd dive into ECS and also scratch my game-making itch by trying out Amethyst. I've had a suspicion that the API could be a bit simpler, and well, you nailed it! After an afternoon of playing around, Bevy has been a pleasure! Really great work!

This is a bizarre take. The most substantial point is buried near the end of the article: Genius does not own the copyright to the lyrics. Yes, they may have taken billions of painstaking person-years to hand-transcribe them onto artisanal silks, but no matter how much effort you put into copying someone else's work, it doesn't make it your work, and you can't sue people over it. At best, you could claim your copy is a derivative work, but that only grants you protection for your additional creative contributions on top of the original work, which for a straight transcription is... well, nothing.

Genius knows this, which is why they didn't file a copyright suit. Instead, they claimed other things like unfair competition and breach of contract. However, Title 17 Section 301 of the US Code says that "all legal or equitable rights that are equivalent to any of the exclusive rights within the general scope of copyright [...] are governed exclusively by this title". To avoid this, Genius needed to prove that their claims weren't "equivalent" – ie weren't just copyright claims dressed up as something else. They failed to do this, and so their case was thrown out.
> Airbnb has fully recovered

That just makes no sense given record unemployment and virus still very much prevalent! Travel and tourism are still significantly below average across the globe.

Re: VRBO... this quote "One of Airbnb's biggest competitors is Vrbo, owned by Expedia Group. The company doesn't break out Vrbo's individual results, but noted it returned to bookings growth in June." I believe is plainly misleading. I'd suggest that the "growth in June" is simply compared to the 80-90% decline from the spring's total lockdown, and likely only a 10-20% increase from that bottom.

The Airbnb report celebrating 1M bookings worldwide is still significantly below the norm (i.e. probably around 10% - tho I can't find clear stats) especially for the summer - so it hasn't "fully recovered" by a long shot.
ok, let's rewind.

First, gp comment just give a basic example (chinos or tshirts, or lots of other clothes would have been admissible too) showing that your assertion is pretty weak.

But let's not focus on that one.

Let's see what the thesis is :

- there are new trends (dictated by celebrities and designers)

- these trends only sow insecurities and environmental destruction.

Let's disregard the first one, even though as shown above it could be debated.

but focus on the second part. You assert that fashion work only sow insecurities and environmental destruction but provide nothing to prove that point. You can repeat as many as you want that an art form brings nothing, you will be no closer to have an actual argument.

I am really not a fan of fast fashion and its environmental practices but if anything it is more of a parasitism of the work of fashion designers. By a large margin, the bulk of what fast fashion companies produces does not come from well known designers and for good reason : there is a lot of work on materials, techniques and fitting that get into such pieces. This is just not doable at any scale.

If anything, a better argument would be that late stage capitalism or lack environmental taxation allow companies to produce lots of goods without any regard for the environment.

"these trends only sow insecurities" is a very sad statement. Clothing choices is way of self expression for many people. The world would not be a better place if we all worn black pants and grey tshirts, only a less interesting one.
Not sure about ebooks, but I assume every workplace email sent to all does this to catch leaks.
Requirement changes, I change the code, test fails, I remove the test, Fred isn't there to speak for the test.

Automation fails, I turn it off and run the thing by hand. Fred isn't there to turn the automation back on, or yell at me for running it by hand instead of fixing the automation.
I agree with the above sentiment regarding the 'gotophobia'. Still, at a glance it looks like a codebase where lots of care and diligence has been taken in documentation and code presentation.
I've handled all these cases and still kept the entire code at less than a couple hundred lines. I suppose some people would consider adding margins to an HTML form element to be "astoundingly" complicated if you consider legacy browser support, but in reality it's astoundingly simple.

Fantastic to hear. 400 bucks is extremely cheap for a long term relationship with a client. Agencies in Europe put 20% on top of your rate.
But even if we can't develop a system that prevents weapons from getting on planes, it doesn't follow the id checks would be a suitable alternative.

I never said it was.

Everyone tells me the TSA can't even stop bombs or guns from being brought on, so let's skip that.

ID doesn't help, so let's skip that.

So my question is - do we just let people board without any checks at all?
Unfortunately no.

Different people have different reasons for disabling ads. Some people only care about egregious ads and privacy violations, that's fine.

I am against ads in general, I noticed a sharp quality of life increase when I started blocking ads universally everywhere I could, regardless of whether or not I was on the web. That's a longer conversation, I'm not going to get into it now. I respect that other people have different opinions, but I also feel reasonably strongly about my own.

I do spread DuckDuckGo to other people, but I also spread uBlock Origin, so I'm not sure I'm a net positive there either. :)

It's again, an interesting question. I've been pushing pretty hard in my personal life to financially support Open Source software that I use, projects that I really care about. DuckDuckGo is one of the few companies that I really like that I haven't ever really supported in any tangible way.

I do feel guilty about that, but not guilty enough to allow myself to be turned into a product. There is likely no company where I would ever feel guilty enough to turn on ads. But given that DuckDuckGo isn't going to allow donations any time soon, I could see a lightweight 'premium' DuckDuckGo product effectively being a way for me to just give them money without it feeling to them like it's a donation.

Actually, what I should do is to look into some of their merch and see what they offer and if they actually make a profit on it. I thought at one point DuckDuckGo sold shirts or something, but I don't know if they still do. Again though, this all kind of ends up being a messy proxy for donations. I'm not super-jazzed about walking around as a living billboard either, even for a company I like.
FireFox and Chrome can't even stream Netflix or Amazon at 1080p. It's like they capitulated and still lost. I watch Netflix in their own app on Windows because even though Edge will technically stream 1080p, it seems to be rate limit capped with noticeable quality reduction :|
Aha. Malware scraping!
In this case it is free arbitrage.

This is because if the stock goes way down, and you are 1 year into your 4 year vest, then you can leave the company, and get a high compensation package somewhere else.

Do you understand how this makes it so you have free downside protection, from those other 3 years, because you can leave and get the high salary somewhere else, if the stock crashes?
But this ties me to use private mode everytime I visit an important site. This is not what I want.
3D printing is hype but beyond a broad assertion that it would be cheaper for high performance LRIP devices I don't feel like a case for it being better than current manufacturing techniques is made in the article. They also completely neglect the fact that you can 3D print complex sub micron structures today using a FIB (a common semiconductor tool) and the technology to do so has existed for over 30 years. It hasn't taken over yet for a reason.

It's always grimly funny to see how a TSA officer confiscates somebody's bottle of water, on the grounds that it might be a can of liquid explosive, and casually throws it to a bin full of other such water bottles, possibly full of liquid explosive, positioned right next to a large crowd of people in front of a TSA checkpoint.

That is, they are actively showing they themselves don't believe in what they are doing.

Seems like a perfect way for a terrorist to have a time bomb landed inside a 2L "soda bottle" in that confiscated bottles bin, and go board a plane, all clean.
The complication with (incorrectly) labeling Margulis "an AIDS denialist", msla, is that you then make her responsible for a whole collection of unsubstantiated tropes that are targeted by that label. That's unwarranted, because Margulis was doing something quite opposite to "AIDS denialism"; Margulis, an esteemed scientist, was proposing an alternative causative factor that may explain AIDS, which isn't HIV, or more precisely, which isn't HIV in isolation.

Interesting to see the roles reversed.

Didn't Google complain that Bing was copying their results a couple of years ago ?

Is it possible to have a middle ground ?

I can see both points of the argument :

- Genius does not own the lyrics, in most cases these are entered by users afaik. A similar example would be somebody adding an address/info on Google Maps.

- On the opposite end, associating a query like "that song written by blue haired 80s singer" to an actual result sounds more like a transformative work (although google owns user entered information as well here with the database of all the queries entered by users).

Would it be possible to have a framework where you can purchase such data at a fair price ?
Not OP, but where I do cosmetic filtering, is on Stack Overflow. They display "hot network questions" on every page, with extremely interesting stuff from non-work Stack Overflow clones. "How many cats did Cmdr. Data have in Star Trek", that sort of stuff.

It has made me lose my focus on work repeatedly, and Stack Overflow really is a site related to work for me. So I block that column.
Until we fix the wasm->dom bridge to be just as fast as the js->dom bridge, js will still have a leg up.

AFAIK the hard bits are in bindgen which makes js structs look like wasm ones and vice versa.

I’ve been doing frontend for over a decade and quite bullish on wasm once that boundary isn’t so expensive.

It should be possible to make super performant apps with wasm. Figma sticks out to me as someone really pushing the edge.

Your definition of Fred is someone who's not communicate the problems and tries to fix them during the time he needs to do planned work.
I was a real Fred and did exactly that. My work was really valued but I always had the impression that no one really saw my intentions and the importance of this extra work. In the end I burned because of this.
Today I'm still a Fred but I learned that transparency is the key to successful communication. If something is odd and needs refactoring that doesn't fit in my current ticket I raise a new ticket with exactly the problem I found (instead leaving a dead Todo in the code). Then I discuss this finding in the next planning and we budget to do it if it's required to be done.
Most of the time it helps tremendously to share thongs with my colleagues and welcome up with an even better solutions than I came up in the first place.
That's a Fred you want to have in your team.
