Anything that you need to do a lot of, in a second, suffers for wasted microseconds.

If your input processing and font rendering pathways waste microseconds (and they do) it makes a delay in characters you type showing up on the screen, and a corresponding, measurable reduction in your editing throughput.

When our machines were a thousand times slower, characters showed up on the screen in substantially less time than they do today. The difference is mainly a result of cumulative wasted microseconds, in so many places that nobody can afford to gather them up.
Well, they did intend to drop the concrete block on his car, the block wasn't dropped by accident or through their gross negligence (in which case it would be manslaughter).

Murder does require intent, but it does not necessarily require an intent to kill that person; if you intend to "just" assault a person but they die, that's murder; if you intend to kill someone but kill someone else whom you did not intend to kill, that's murder.

"extreme indifference to human life" (again, intentional) is generally considered murder - e.g. if you'd intentionally burn down your neighbour's house without knowing or caring if anyone's inside, then if someone dies, it's considered murder. And UK, where the incident happened, has the concept of felony-murder where any death (even if accidental) that happens in the process of felony can be considered murder, because the felony that endangered people's lives was intentional.
Nice Cherry Picking.

France, Italy, Hungary, Spain, Belgium, UK, Netherlands, all have worse CFR's than Sweden.

Also, all of Europe in aggregate is pretty close to Sweden.

It's fascinating to see how people are so devoted to demonizing Sweden.

Also, CFR is a weird measure to use.

1 infection and 1 death is a 100% CFR even if the rest of the population is fine!!!!

His comparison of how errors in policing are treated compared to how plane crashes are treated is very apt. I've used this lens to look at many situations since. The lack of impartiality displayed in the face of an "officer involved" incident is glaring.

Police officers and other people in that branch of government never display the kind of serious investigative interest that a plane crash investigator applies. They never approach it with fresh eyes, hoping to uncover and fix root causes.

In IT we talk about "the 5 whys" for trying to get past superficial reasons for an incident. But you can't expect to ever see that kind of approach when everything is quickly hidden behind a "blue wall of silence."

What I'm looking for:

I'm looking for a Product Manager related role. As a Software engineer, over the past two years I've had a lot of overlapping duties and oversight over the products I've built, which led me to love the PM side of things. I'm looking for positions where I can solve product related problems while still talking with users/stakeholders.

Feel free to shoot me an email!
I'm curious what percent of advertising revenue has moved from journalistic corporations over to Google and Facebook.

I think the places that used to employ journalists to gather news served a role in our society that Facebook and Google have not stepped into. It COULD make sense for a government that saw value in that industry to prop it up. The same way it makes sense for the USA to keep at least one or two foundries operational.
Well, eventually it has to work. But if we write a buggy Python program in most industries, and it breaks, the customers complain a bit and you fix it.

I suspect what the parent means is there are some industries where you can't afford for it to break at all. I.e., you don't need to guarantee correctness.
A lot of the cost of American college doesn't go towards education but things like sports stadiums and teams, various non-academic events, administrators, various other non-academic staff, uniquely-expensive American legal costs and insurance, on-campus police (a big wtf for Europeans), and then there are also those people who decide which Halloween costumes are appropriate for students, investigate various misconduct on campus etc.

Americans expect college campuses to be like resorts, parents expect a lot of pampering and personalized whatever for their kid etc. In Europe, university students are independent adults who take a bunch of courses, take exams etc, but have lives on their own, outside uni. They may rent a room in housing with connections to the university, but the university doesn't babysit them. They don't expect anyone else to keep tabs on what they need to do, no pampering. There is no customer mentality. You spare a lot of money this way.

So it's at least in part cultural and also reflects in different attitudes regarding healthcare, restaurants, retail, and general business conduct.
To the observers, but not to the person being transported.
US college isn't longer because it's remedial, it's because it has more out of major liberal arts required courses.

There are a lot of remedial classes at US colleges, but those students wouldn't be in college at all in Europe.
>We can all keep paying Adobe or someone else or make sure GIMP has at least one person working on it full time and have legitimate chance of not needing Photoshop in the future.

FOSS is a free market. The mere fact that GIMP isn't meeting users' needs is supposed to result in competing, superior forks driving it out of business, not a desire to give more money to the incumbent.
I also would be highly interested in picking up RxDB if it can integration with either AppSync or PostgreSQL. I guess with the later- would it be possible to use RxDB with the GraphQL plugin against Postgraphile? Feels like a lot of 'magic', but it would be great something like this just worked.
Honestly the whole movement is leaderless, aimless, and senseless.

Right off the bat making it a race issue is divisive and misleading - when the statistics show people of color are no more likely than anyone else to be a victim of police violence, when considering the number of police interactions. Blacks and latinos commit more crimes. That's the uncomfortable truth.

Then they have no serious or well thought out plan to improve things - so what do they hope to gain from protesting? Abolish the police is pure nonsense. Awareness of the issue is the best they can hope for.

There was a solid fourteen seconds (or however long it takes Youtube to auto-play the next video) where I considered paying for an OnlyFans subscription of a lady who did satirical wall street business news analysis on YouTube.

Well, they use a linux kernel which is written in C and some assembly. All of the overlying components are apparently written in rust. These components still interact with the system calls exposed by the kernel.

An example of a kernel itself written in rust would be the Redox microkernel. It seems to be able to run a graphical environment but it hasn't been updated in a while.
I don't have a source on hand, but my understanding is that Samsung significantly undercut TSMC on pricing, likely to stay alive in the high end fab business. Samsung is probably making extremely low margins on these, hence the lower than expected MSRP.
The way I've seen it work is with having short lived access tokens and a refresh token, with the refresh token being saved to a database so it can be revoked. I think the benefit over an opaque token is that you have data that can be verified to be true and then passed on to multiple places. E.g passed between microservices

Bad code still works. It may not work well in some regard:

- Hard to maintain

- Slow

- Hard to extend (slightly different than maintain, but related)

- Crash-prone (but infrequent enough)

- Corrupts data (but infrequent enough)

- Just wrong enough to be annoying but not wrong enough to be useless

I had colleagues on a project (I really wanted to help them fix it, but was never brought on board) that was truly bad code. There was copy/pasta everywhere. The same function written a half dozen or more times with slight differences (or none, no idea why it was copied in the first place), so bug fixes would partially address an issue but not when all copies weren't fixed. It was massive (hundreds of thousands of lines by this point, maybe over a million now) with mostly new team (original coders were contractors, and original team for us all moved on). The size and quality made it hard to extend in a sane way because there were so many unknowns. It had random concurrency issues which would only crop up reliably when fielded.

The fundamental design was flawed. They had to connect N different protocols (each different but communicating the same kind of information) to each other. Instead of coming up with an intermediate format they did 1-to-1 connections, which meant an explosion in complexity. Instead of N translation units to an internal format and N translation units out, it was N * (N - 1) translation units, every protocol needed a way to translate to every other. The sane way would mean adding a new protocol required 2 new translation units, the insane way required 2 * N (the new protocol to all existing protocols, all existing protocols to the new one).

It shipped, it made millions (in revenue) every year, but it was not good code.

That people are not required to be paid for activities that are required of them is a joke. Exactly where the setup is might vary, but there definitely is a sad punchline at the end.

Reading through the ruling was interesting, and definitely helped me to decide that the problem wasn't with the Supreme Court's decision, but with the poor protections in place on the Portal-to-Portal Act. I hold with the moral statement that actions performed by the employee, and required by the employer, must be compensated. Since the security screenings were mandatory, it is immoral for the employees not to be compensated.

Interested in management/leadership opportunities for a technology organization. CTO, VP of Engineering, Sr. Director of Engineering - organizations that need help creating that next-level of culture where people are excited to come into work, high eNPS where folks openly recommend friends to apply for open positions.

I am big on transparent communication, integrity and appreciation.

I've been lucky to create these organizations a few time in my career and then live through some very exciting roadmap years delivering with them - it is a total joy to experience.

This is a long shot appending a comment like this to what looks like an IC-focused thread, but I figured I would put myself out here and see if any threads can connect.

Couldn't agree more. I like capitalism as much as the next guy, but I recognize that incentives for individuals and corporations can easily get misaligned from the public good. I think the wealth transfer from journalists to ad providers is a perfect example. Nobody can argue that the journalistic reliance on ad revenue as a result of having to compete with cheap, free, garbage-information-factories hasn't completely ruined the news industry, which is a vital component of a functioning democracy.

There shouldn't be any signing up needed, as it's an open beta.

You should already see `Container` listed as a package type in the UI, and can begin publishing packages by creating a personal access token with `read:packages` and `write:packages` scopes as appropriate - https://docs.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/c...

I think my point was largely that Windows already has (1) from your list and it's already the gold standard on Windows, and has been available for some 25 years. I would be surprised if it wasn't part of the mechanism used in DirectStorage.

io_uring does have a more ergonomic and POSIX API, but that's because it's on Linux! Fundamentally they're both completion port based replacements to polling for IO events and they're both capable of high throughput and horizontal scaling.
Hmm and global shutter cameras are much more expensive. Though AFAIK a modern mirrorless camera with mechanical shutter can be used for this, yes? My GH5 can shoot at 12 frames per second with the mechanical shutter, so that may be of some use.

I did see in this paper that it seems like rolling shutter compensation is possible:
https://research.fb.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/An-Integr...

I wonder if a library could be produced for this?

As far as my street capture I am currently using 830 frames from my 4 minute video (2 fps), images are 4992 x 3744 shot with a 12mm lens. The reconstruction is still texturing so I don't have the final result. What kind of numbers are you interested in?

Please contact me yes! My email is in my profile. See also my four wheel drive robot with four 4k cameras, and feel free to actually initiate discussion on that site where others can see it too (or emails is good). Thanks!
