Indeed. My old self-imposed rule was that upgrading was a waste of money unless I could get at least twice the performance. Manufacturers have generated high benchmarks by throwing "moar cores" at it but even the best chips have barely a 40% single-thread increase over my seven year old Haswell build.
Nice equivocation of CP and asking critical questions about vaccine safety.
This is very disappointing. My response for people on this side is this: Great, hand me your unlocked phone. I promise not to share anything with anyone else.
This seems like a great idea (I had something similar built on a personal level using org-mode)! Luckily, I've just managed to find myself a position, but this would have seriously helped me.

To put that further, the wars and automated atrocities of the industrial age wouldn't break the noise floor of human suffering in pre-industrial history.

By some estimates, Genghis Khan was responsible for the deaths of 40 million people, and all he had were horses.

Europeans coming to North America led to the deaths of ~50 million people in the 16th century, mostly by accident.

They are super valuable now but their value will decrease as the Chinese semiconductor industry catches up, so it's not like TSMC will have to pay 2x the salary forever. However I know many people (not at TSMC) who would take a lower salary to work on green field projects.

> There are quite a lot of people now that just use a web browser on their desktop or laptop. For them, a 5 year old (or older?) CPU is good enough that they don't know they are missing anything. Especially if they have enough memory and an SSD.

My 2015 laptop is still more than capable of doing .net development, or I should say, was when I last tried in 2019.

At work I've got a 2015 macbook pro and it's also more than enough for devops (namely, terraform, docker and the odd script in bash or python)

I should add that neither feel sluggish though no doubt new kit would be faster
Bill Gates’ narcissism is really on display lately.

There is something in his interviews that suggest the guy cannot see where anyone can reasonably disagree with him on anything. He lumps everyone who disagrees with him into camps of crazies in an extraordinarily uncharitable way. Combine this fact with the public, 20 year lie that he is giving away his fortune, it’s time for him to step down from public life.

He is damaging arguments that are good by attaching his reputation to them.
I think we should assume the most charitable interpretation, unless we all want to sound like angry old men. Keeps interaction pleasant in spite of anonymity.
This is nonsense. AMD has it's equivalent of the ME and it's under a lot less scrutiny. If it didn't have "backdoors" it would be a miracle.
Buy a bigger ssd if you can, they're cheap. The last drive I bought was a 1TB Intel SSD for like $90.

But the pain point is on laptops like MacBooks which have comically small storage space for their price point. I think the base models have a measly 256GB SSD and charge crazy amounts for upgrades.

For example, by enforcing churn on "custodes", by creating a culture in which radical transparency is the norm, by encouraging highly participatory democracy.

The article reports on the in vitro results and says they're going to be doing further validation in vivo. As I mentioned before, the same has been true for basically every other antibody being developed (monoclonals and ones isolated from patients), which were also initially published in Nature/Science/etc with only in vitro and structural data.

There are multiple aspects that are novel here: their size, the trimer (rather than a cocktail), and their stability/delivery. All of these seem worthy of reporting. They say they're about to start clinical trials to see if they could be efficacious; they don't say that they will.

Yes, it's a concern. Firstly, hard drive space isn't the only reason to make binaries small - you have RAM pressure, cache pressure, and bandwidth to save. Secondly and more importantly, waste adds up. If you replaced every binary on the system with a Rust equivalent - which, to listen to some advocates, is the eventual goal - you could end up with a base system that's many times larger.

In a larger sense, something that sets out to be a "systems programming language" needs to be exactly the sort of thing suitable for a tiny embedded system, even if it isn't running on one, because everything else builds on top of it. The attitude that "we have tons of power, why not waste it" just doesn't fly at the very lowest levels. You can write a desktop application in Python, and it's broadly fine - but try writing an OS kernel!

We did at an old gig. Completely ditched the Indian offshore team for Mexico City. Generally, was a good experience, or was at least better than Tata/CTS/HCL.

The big changes were

- timezone overlap; they were Central Time and working for East and West costs weren't a struggle

- vaguely similar holidays / no surprises because no one in the US knows when Holy is

- level of English was usually better with the Mexicans, though they often had thicker accents; we could always find a Spanish speaker in the office if there were any communication struggles

- level of technical qualifications was usually better, in that Tata would be obligated to find someone who can do [X], and experience has shown that they'll find anyone, while the Mexican support teams usually had solid technical chops.

We had some limited success with a team in Argentina too, but there were a lot of tax and other logistical hoops. We had high hopes for the folks we reached out to in Brazil but they were never really organized, and I gather getting any sort of hardware into the BZ is expensive and complicated, plus they only have like 2 real Telcos and connectivity was problematic (this was like ~8 years ago, so things my have changed).
No, the performance problem didn’t exist. The engineer in question was really smart in many other areas, but “engineering” per se wasn’t his strength. Things are fast-and-loose in startup world.
It blew my mind back in the 80s when I read an article on how to get my humble home computer receive satellite maps. Unfortunately I didn't own a shortwave radio and I couldn't convince my parents to buy one because the weather was already on the local news every night.

One of the early articles on the subject is a fun read:
https://archive.org/details/198502Rainbow/page/n41/mode/2up
That these facts inhere in the physical world (and I don't disagree) does not directly correspond to the beliefs of the individuals living in said world. Language exists and is the vehicle used to transmit beliefs about facts.

This is why we speak of proof in the first place. The fact that person A died at another's hands does not directly correspond to the belief held by an individual that person X was the killer. This is why we have "beyond reasonable doubt" as a legal evidentiary standard.

I agree that factual axiomatic truths exist in the physical world and are evident to individuals as factual axiomatic truth. The problem is communicating these as such without granting license to counterfeits.

The most successful form thus far has been to let the facts speak for themselves to individuals as factual axiomatic truths.

The least successful has been to establish unassailable dogma concerning what is and is not factual.

The certainty that you and others present concerning your set of beliefs-as-facts-themselves is of the same species as other true believers throughout history. Historically, this has led to the suppression of the scientific method and an open society in favor of a prelatical and clerical class that determines by edict what truth is, often solely at the behest of the hegemonic power and not factual axiomatic truth.

This is why it is preferable to have minimal rather than maximal control over the exchange of ideas concerning the nature of what constitutes a fact, let alone what those facts actually are.
And there's plenty of us that understand that "low risk" is still risk, that getting sick without dying is not without long-term health effects, and that vaccination is not only for you, but for your community.
Handles are essentially integer indexes, relative to a base pointer, also implying a certain object size (needed for index multiplication). A nice property therefore is that the base pointer can be different each time the program is started, but the handle stays constant.

So in case that module-private array is mmapped to disk, handles themselves can be serialised, unlike pointers. This can enable quick and easy storage of most of the program state, allowing for a fast recovery afterwards.

1. Low quality research paper draws euphemistic link between sleep issues and ADHD which are common bedfellows,

2. Authors either ignorant of the fact that sleep disruption is commonly interlinked with conclusive ADHD diagnoses, or deliberately attempting to get clicks (and very probably both IMO),

2. Study concludes, like many others, that sleep is a contributing factor to some of the the neurological precursors to ADHD (i.e. some "ADHD-like symptoms" and "ADHD" are due to the same dopamine disregulation, even if one is a naturally occurring issue in an ADHD sufferer whilst the other is directly caused by sleep disruption in the aforelinked study)

3. You said: "So what about stims like amphetamine or cocaine? They provide even more impulsive tendencies and hyperactivity than a bad nights sleep." I understood this to mean that you could proceed to take stimulants after a bad night's sleep to heighten the impact on your ability as an entrepreneur, but I see from your confusion at my reply that it's possible you meant something closer to "If you want to be a better entrepreneur in line with the outcomes of this bullshit study, don't bother depriving yourself of sleep, just take stimulants which also cause the same behaviours."

4. My point: given that we are talking about the same chemical disruption, it seems likely that just as ADHD-sufferers experience paradoxical effects from stimulants, the impact of stims you are proposing would be ineffectual in heightening the behaviours of people who are sleep-deprived, and is more likely to have the typical paradoxical effect.
I agree that most computing can be done easily with 5 year old hardware, or 10 or 15 if you pick your software carefully.

It's called an API. I'd say an operating system that doesn't have that, is not much of an operating system. Do you really think that a missing API is fixed by some distro maintainer packaging your app properly? No.
They often are already.

Besides, capital costs of construction and vehicle acquisition absolutely dominates the cost of operation. The problem isn’t that running constantly available service isn’t affordable, the problem is that we lack the political will to make mass transit a meaningful alternative to cars.
I see this all the time, in every area. Bicycle forums are filled with hate for "casual bikers" who buy $5,000 bicycles and all the expensive accessories. My feeling is "good for them! They help the industry and help finance the lower-end models."

Forgive my ignorance, but notepad++ and VLC?
MacOS 1.0 in 1984 used handles in order to allow the heap to be coalesced more easily (although locked handles and regular pointers often created islands). Given the first Mac had 128K RAM and no MMU, it was highly necessary at the time.
That's really... not an appropriate response, and not only for the legal reasons others mentioned.

Phishing sites can be / are often served by compromised hosts, so you might as well end up doxing a box who is not run by the bad guy, causing all sorts of mayem for the legitimate owners / admins (in addition to they be compromised).

Plus, you didn't solve anything, from the pattern you used it's pretty easy to cleanup the data for the adversary, get rid of your garbage and put the thing back on the next day, so you've only temporarily disrupted their operation.

A more appropriate response is to report the abuse who manages the infrastructure (most likely a legitimate provider) and the domain registar; both usually have appropriate channels and response procedures just for that. If you feel kind and keen to do some free work, you can find out if the infrastructure has also a legitimate purpose and contact the legitimate administrator. Also, there are a lot of abuse lists that accept contributions, as in submitions for malicious sites, where you can report this (so it gets fetched by a variety of stuff and blocked by others while it's operational before it gets eradicated).

I understand this does not give you any credit or allow you to write a blog post about looping requests in bash but still.

If it comes to being confronted with the question whether legalizing genocide is tolerable, you claim moral beliefs are so relative that you would not rely on them too much.

If it comes to judging „what a truly tolerant person should do“ you make an absolute normative, hence moral claim.

This strikes me as rather inconsistent and therefore unconvincing.

OK, but neither does SpaceX, right?

If I make a mess of public lands, I can get in trouble. The international legal framework around the use of space has clear holes in it - it still focuses around nation state actions with little consideration to commercial use - and there's nothing wrong with talking about that.

AMD has little stopping them from moving to 5nm or 6nm TSMC next year, possibly sooner than Intel can ship this. AMD could do a small run to win on both paper and ground.

The real factor here is the third competitor, Apple, walking in with what is expected to be a 5nm 'no cost limits' CPU that they will ship on every machine based on A14 architecture. Because they own the design and just have TSMC do Fab it's likely that Apple will intentionally put what would be a $500-$1000+ monster core-count cpu spec in every base product, stealing the war. and possibly deflating the market for victors here.

> Prior to the Industrial Revolution, the vast majority of people lived in what we'd today call "soul-crushing poverty", and it wasn't uncommon to have bad harvest years where a couple percent of a nation's population starved to death.

On a historical level what’s unusual about the Irish Great Famine of 1845-48 isn’t that a quarter of the population died, it’s that that was the last time that happened.
Doesn't it actually store the timezone's IANA name and uses the tzdata to do conversions? That implies slightly more work than storing just the effective timezone offset, but is probably more correct when it comes to the timestamps in the future.

That's not how I read it. The quote is Gates talking about Facebook. My interpretation isn't that he's saying E2EE is bad, but rather he's saying that E2EE is a convenient way for Facebook to avoid/deny responsibility for things being spread through parts of the platform that they own.
Yes, there is existing software to automate this, I presume that competent bad guys already use that.

However you can't do this to WebAuthn (or its non-standard predecessor U2F). The WebAuthn challenge is bound to a DNS name, by the client browser. So https://fake-bank.example/important/urgent/thing/ignore/the/... can't get credentials for real-bank.example even if the human is utterly convinced the fake site is their real bank, because you need to fool the web browser not just a human.

AFAIK zero banks use WebAuthn...

It's funny because I thought your reply was cute.

>I would say that if you want to help, first reach out to your representative / government and put pressure on them to put pressure on belarus.

Bahahaha. The US already has its hands full, there's no way on earth this gains traction when there's actual strategic priorities at the moment for them. Let the EU do something useful for once, they love talking about how much they help the world.

>Secondly, we need a crowdfunder to support people who've suffered grevious bodily harm at the hands of this regime.

Again, bahahaha. This is going to end up like when everyone and their brother was a "Syrian Refugee" because they knew it'd get them into Europe. You may as well send some of the money to the prince of Nigeria while you're at it.
Ensure it's clear that that's illegal in the same way sexual harassment is illegal.

For all the benefits it would bring, that's a silly reason to throw it all away.
His position doesn't seem to be a blanket "e2e should be banned", but rather that social networks have a responsibility to police discourse on their platforms and they've used e2e as a mean to avoid that responsibility.

I personally think it's a red herring - even where there is no e2e, like on regular FB, it's extremely difficult to police user-generated content and fake news (a category that arguably includes TFA). This is just trying to whip up a storm against Gates.
> Mozilla did this one thing once

Nobody is saying this.
I always believed in treating people equally despite their race. So when someone makes a statement regarding black people that would be perceived as racist if you said the exact same thing about white people, I consider that anti-white racism. Ex. Microsoft saying they plan to "double the number of White people managers, senior individual contributors, and senior leaders in the United States by 2025."
If I build a new computer to replace my Ivy Bridge hackintosh, the only thing that would keep me on Intel at this point is the desire to build one last hackintosh before Apple goes full ARM. At the middle level, say Ryzen 3700X vs i7-9700, they're pretty close.
To be honest, your solution doesn't sound more maintainable, because now I have to write a complicated longjmp handler and have global state variables that interact with all my read calls.

That only maybe works if you write most of the application code yourself but it would be unrealistic in larger projects that have to do more than read from stdin and pop out data on the other end.

SIGPIPE should not exist, no matter what hacky ways you found to abuse it for your advantage in some edge cases.
