Did you not read $10billion in profit. People point to Mexico and the corruption the narcos bring to the Mexican state. It is the same in the US for this case. Just looked at who profited. Drs, lawyers, politicians, lobbists. Whilst the gravy train is running people are not asking questions at best and doing their best to stop them being asked.

The corruption regarding oxycotin, ran from the top to the bottom of the system
>I don't want to sound insensitive, 3 thousand people is of course a tragedy, but on a scale of entire Earth I think it is preposterous for US citizens to get obsessed after this one when more kids are dying to malaria every single day or for multitude of other problems.

>will typically get a lot of upvotes during US night time and then gets suddenly killed when US wakes up.

I don't know about the downvotes, but you're presenting a false equivalency that doesn't make any sense and is kind of insulting to me as an American. Specifically about Malaria, which a US president has created a program to address https://www.usaid.gov/global-health/health-areas/malaria. America sends billions of dollars worth of aid and supplies around the world every year. But to hear Europeans talk about it, the only thing America does is cause problems for them with our imperialism.

Sometimes I wish America would just listen to Europe and let them fend for themselves. Let their navies handle global piracy and securing global shipping lanes for their interests. Let their armies deal with Russian and Chinese saber rattling and the effect that will have on trade. Sometimes I wish I could go back and tell the government to let European militaries spend their own money to launch and maintain GPS systems that the entire western world has been given and using for the past 40 years, paid for by American taxpayers.

>A larger lesson is that you want somebody teach virtuous behavior you need to be able to show the virtue yourself or you are not going to achieve very much in terms of results.

Very ironic, since you're doing the same thing to America / Americans. What part of you and your society is so virtuous that you feel the need to give America a lesson on how to be virtuous?

Yeah, even if a private jet (whether owned or chartered) may not be as fast as this, it's going to be way less in terms of overall travel time in most cases, especially if it means you can fly out of non-busy regional airports closer to your origin and destination points.
Cool, I'm curious, what do you do with lisp if you can share it?
Once again modern psychology confirms the intuitive wisdom of Dale Carnegie. The very first maxim in How to Win Friends and Influence People is "don't criticize, condemn of complain". And the reason for this:

"When dealing with people, remember you are not dealing with creatures of logic, but with creatures bristling with prejudice and motivated by pride and vanity..."
Some doctors are blamed for over-prescribing, which is why some doctors were jailed and some doctors struck off.

That doesn't take away from the fact that the manufacturers led a campaign to deliberately mislead people for years about the addictiveness and efficacy of opioid medication to treat pain.
It also depends on the individual engineer.

Some engineers (myself included) need to be able to write tests to make hour-by-hour progress towards the minimum needed to learn about the market.
“The Mess We’re In” – Erlang Inventor Joe Armstrong (2014)
I think like 80% of people in the comments are trying to find refuge in the idea that "TDD is dead" to justify them not writing tests.

Not going to argue, I just hope you realize this will come back and bite you. This profession requires discipline, like any other.
> Microsoft and Adobe seem to have realized this, and now they're making things accessible to most people, so many ex-pirates used to their products are buying them. Not so for the media companies. Why does Netflix USA/UK/etc have different content? Why do games have region locks and ridiculous DRM?

The thing here seems to be ease of access. Adobe products were at one point more easily gotten in pirated fashion than legitimate. The same was even true for MS products.

Once both companies adopted new distribution models, the pirated software was no longer the easiest option. Additionally, while costly to some, the ease of upgrades and getting patches became easier by using the legitimate channel. This is important for professionals.

The media companies appear to recognize this at this point, but they fear losing control of the distribution model. They don’t want to cede that all to Netflix, but this seems like it might be a losing option for all but the biggest media companies (like Disney). It will be interesting to see how this all plays out, since most people are not going to want to purchase single media channels, and will generally want a single source like Netflix. Until this becomes simpler for consumers, pirating for some is the simplest means of getting access to the content.
> If we had a justice system, that $10.8 billion would be recoverable

We’re in the midst of a series of lawsuits and criminal probes seeking to do exactly that. When public pressure rushes prosecutors, we get nonsense like Arizona getting rejected for original jurisdiction by SCOTUS.

We have due process. Not mob rule.
Well youre just some john doe. Even if I had the funding, I still would try to rope in either fabien or jean-michel just for the name recognition alone. Money would be more easily available with such people aboard the project, and (as long as we're smart and courageous) more money will just make things run smoother. So I would put Fabien out in the papers, smithsonian magazine, wherever our pr specialists think would have greatest fund raising impact.

Now "would I?" is a whole other question. Human missions are kind of old school now that we have fully autonomous devices such as the surf glider, underwater gliders, animal-tag based telemetry, multiple global satellite internet networks. If I was collaborating with Fabien, I would put that name to use raising money for something a little more modern, such as autonomous monitoring of military hydrophone arrays, measurement of radiation around nuclear sub pens, locating and monitoring the 60+ beluga whales just recently released from the russian whale jail.

Good and tough question. So far, we are not very successful to find enough funding to bring the design to the next mature level and tape out it. Working on it, but difficult.

No one can decide to pay 200~300k euro in a minute with very uncertain return (like charity), because no one can 100% answer the question of how many openwifi chips can be sold per year.
Me either. Imagine a world where the poor have no news access, and instead depend on Facebook for news.
Yeah putting people in jail for pirating movies will definitely make them and the world better.
> How do you navigate "back" in Android?

That's the "leave this Activity" button, personally I strictly don't use it navigating within an app because it's never clear if it's been overridden or not.

For mobile browsers, I always use "open in new tab" so I don't need to go back and can avoid guessing.
SEC Modernizes the Accredited Investor Definition
By that reasoning you might say the US had a huge role in 9/11 because the Bin Laden issue station failed to identify and prevent his attacks. I wouldn't say that, they did the best they could with the budget they had, and the approvals they were (or weren't) given.
Throwing stuff at the wall and seeing what sticks is a good way to get people killed.

Doctors are not researchers and they shouldn't be.

It's not a bad-faith comment.
Not really, because "missions without sample returns" (aka "flyby/impactor") is one of the options considered.
also, the dictionary definition of 'defund' means "to withdraw funding from"

if you wanted to campaign on partially defunding the police, then you'd get a different reaction.

i'm not aware of any previous major political movements which used the slogan 'defund X' to mean 'partially reduce funding to, but continue to support sufficiently to ensure proper functioning of X"

so if (a) defund doesn't imply "partially reduce funding" and (b) the word defund has not historically been used that way and (c) plenty of activists say "literally abolish the police" [1] then if people are failing to interpret it the way you'd like, the burden is on proponents to have a better slogan to communicate their message

I use TDD with integration tests. At first, my test case verifies a whole feature at a high level, then later when I have the main test case passing, I add more detailed integration test cases. Once I'm satisfied that the feature works under all the tricky possible edge cases, I merge the feature. I just run my test case to verify that the feature is working. It's way easier than manually testing using a browser or HTTP client to make requests; also it's nice that once I finished testing, I get to keep the test case and it serves to avoid regressions on that feature later.

Sometimes I do TDD with unit tests, but only if the specific component is complex enough to warrant a unit test. I don't write unit tests for a simple component where the correctness of the component can easily be inferred from the passing of integration test cases which rely on that component.

Trying to cover everything with unit tests from the beginning is a terrible idea and will lead to sub-par architecture. You have to start with tests that cover functionality at a high level first and work your way to the details later; top-down, not bottom-up.

The beauty of the integration test is that it forces you to modularize high level logic to make it testable. It forces you to think about the input and output boundaries of the code being tested under integration. Integration testing doesn't mean you need to have a database running during the tests; often you can mock out the database client with a dummy adapter (or an in-memory adapter which works in the same way as the real database for the purpose of testing).
World Cyber Security Summit 2020 – Africa Edition
USB sucks. Bigtime. Way, way more than PCIe. PCIe is great. PCIe will run over wet string* . USB... USB is a world of pain.

This is the same problem any kind of USB virtualization/network tunnelling has. Also, anyone trying to build a USB2 to USB3 transaction translator (which the spec, unforgivably, omitted). AFAIK there is one USB2 to USB3 TT chip in the market and it's unobtainium.

It works if you lift things back to the URB level to some extent, and "virtualize" the lower protocol layers, but there are corner cases once you introduce a frame of latency or more, which you have to. The host polls for data, then you're polling the device for data. You get back some data, but the next frame the host has stopped polling for data. Now you have some data you have to drop on the floor. Not good. You could choose to delay a successful ACK until you get it from the other side (and thus pretend like the first time the data was sent it was corrupted, even though it was forwarded successfully), but now you've massively decimated your maximum throughput. The same problem happens in the other direction too.

Thankfully, in practice these race conditions often hit software anyway (i.e. if you cancel a submitted URB then if data came back it was already acked and it'll be dropped on the floor), so you can get away with it since drivers should be designed not to screw this up. But it's still easier at the software level (e.g. virtualizing) because you actually know what the host is trying to do. I wrote the QEMU virtual xHCI code and the original prototype, which ignored the QEMU USB subsystem and passed through straight to the host, worked very well (better than anything VMware/virtualbox were doing) because xHCI is high level enough. But at the wire level, you don't even know when the host has cancelled a transaction other than just... because it chooses not to send packets in a given frame... and what if it just decided not to poll that frame but it will poll later? Now you need timeout heuristics... it's horrible.

* seriously, I've tunnelled PCIe over 115200 baud RS232. You can do all kinds of horrible things to PCIe and it will still work.
Tipps to Code more secure Web-Apps
My problem was learning how and why to do it. Most of the tutorials I've seen on the matter either test too trivially or too often.

In most countries as a customer you’re not liable for fraud that occurs as a result of your banks failures.

In the EU this sort of behaviour is now heavily frowned upon, and with the slow roll out of Strong Customer Authentication will become unacceptable. With banks needing to prove that they’re compliant.

As for the rest of the world, regulators don’t always act with the interest of customer in mind. The US has a few notable examples of regulators protecting companies rather than consumers.

> Taxes are far outside the UN's scope.

They certainly aren't. The UN has already a few taxes agreement, including one on the line of setting international standards for corporate taxes.

The thing is that it only applies when corporate profits change country, and enforcement is bilateral.

Note the neat djbdns feature where you can set the starting and ending time for every single record. "tinydns dynamically adjusts ttl so that the line's DNS records are not cached for more than a few seconds past the ending time." That makes planned IP address changes a lot less painful!
> ... Am I missing something?

Memory BW? Power consumption ? What's the BW and the power consumption of 2 A64FX CPUs, and what's the BW and power consumption of 4x Threadripper 3990X that also deliver 6 TFLOP/s? You might need to add the power for cooling to the comparison as well if you plan to stock a full cluster with these.

Also, if your main metric is TFLOPs, you might want to add a single A100 to the comparison.... it probably crushes the Threadripper and the A64FX from the POV of TFLOPs, memory BW, and power consumption, but maybe not price.
> I use the android navigation bar at bottom to jump to Home or switch apps or lock the phone. FF in light theme mode takes over that area with a white background making it impossible to use white-on-white buttons

This doesn't happen for me on Android 10, and I haven't seen such a mode on any screenshots, so it seems to be a bug. Neither the new nor the old version have options for ‘fully-full-screen’ display where the top and bottom bars would be hidden.

However, Mozilla isn't known for speedy fixing of bugs—probably doubly so with its current troubles. So I wouldn't raise hopes up even if this behavior is reported in the tracker.
That is not generally true. Countries with codified constitutions have special rules on constitutional amendments (examples include Australia and Switzerland which require a public vote on constitutional amendments, and even the US requires 75% of state legislatures to approve amendments). Even New Zealand (which doesn't have a codified constitution) has passed laws -- such as the Electoral Act 1993 -- which restrict the power of future parliaments from passing certain legislation.

The constitutional convention you mentioned basically only exists in any significant form in the UK, though the concept does exist in a lesser extent to procedural rules (standing orders) in Commonwealth-descended parliaments around the world.

In Microsoft, at least in Office division, TDD got some big pushes and serious traction within many of the teams working on Services, funnily enough back around the time of this article.

But... maybe relatively uniquely? We had a firm division between Dev and Test Engineers at the time. The person writing the tests was not he person developing the code.

The best success story I saw for this was a well defined feature, covered by tests written while the Test Engineer had time before a vacation, and then developed against by the Dev who didn't get time until the vacation.

Shortly afterwards Microsoft did away with the split between Test and Dev, and laid off many of the Test Engineers (while keeping QA in the case of Windows).

I haven't seen many Engineers these days, former Test or not, be enthusiastic to do TDD. It might be motivational due to the constant pressure to make progress and a shift to smaller check-ins, so developing tests for TDD is maybe not observable progress.

He was a gruff, soldierly man of forty, who gave the tramps no more ceremony than sheep at the dipping-pond, shoving them this way and that and shouting oaths in their faces. But when he came to myself, he looked hard at me, and said:

In my experience, TDD has been "replaced" with laborious, time-consuming, low-coverage manual testing - that is, what it was originally meant to replace.

Yep, one night protestors were just as brutal as police, mistaken identity and tensions high from the other night when a car almost ran protesters over.

You have one example versus dozens of examples of police violence. And it's Andy Ngo, who once again didn't actually take the video footage.

You're the one with cognitive dissonance claiming all nights are violently attacking civilians when you have one example. Somehow though most nights police beat protestors or use tear gas and that’s ok by you?

There's only so many arms manufactuers and shipping companies and supporting businesses who are willing to work the bottom of the barrel market. The first world is always on their back because they're the people who do things "wrong" enough (they and their customers would say "right") to meet the price points of the third world. This is like the shipping equivalent of the local bottom dollar machinery moving service that has cash discounts and is always getting hassled by the DOT for clapped out trucks and questionable load permits.

Until the whole world is rich enough to not have to cut corners this kind of stuff (the shipping story, the chain of events leading to the explosion in downtown Beirut is exceptional which is why they're so pissed off about it) is normal.
