> There was substantial action towards both of those ends, more than any other country.

I just don't think that's true. From what I understand, they payroll support was extremely difficult to get for small businesses, and the majority went to large corporations who had the connections and the bandwidth to deal with the bureaucracy. Even the Cares checks took weeks to arrive in the hands of people without direct deposit.

By contrast, I am currently living in Germany, and I have friends who are freelancers and they had support funds in their bank accounts less than a week after the lockdown started. Also there was already legal machinery in place to avoid job losses which was put in place in 2008 and activated almost immediately.

> Other countries are not really as comparable because we're the only rich developed country to have failed so badly at containing it (early on, in the next few months some of Europe will follow us).

We will have to see, but I'm doubtful this is the case. In Germany for example we still have aggressive contract tracing, and we've already seen containment measures implemented successfully. We have not seen the particular failures in leadership which occurred in the US, and though we may indeed see a second wave, I'm not sure why we should expect that to go worse now that there's improved information and the population has already dealt with this once I'm not sure why we should expect this to go worse the second time.

> Delaying the obligation is better because it means that people won't be evicted if they can't meet the payments even with the governmental support

Why are these options mutually exclusive? You could provide direct support to tenants and also prevent evictions. This would limit the extent to which you are creating a future financial obligation which out-of-work tenants will have no way of meeting.

> I agree that Fed actions impact equity prices, I disagree that that is a bad thing for the economy.

I never said rising equity prices were a bad thing for the economy. My concern is that if we optimize the recovery effort for increasing equity prices, but fail to address other risks, like lack of employment and the creation of housing debt, we could be setting ourselves up for failure in the medium term. If we managed to keep people employed and in their homes and also saw rising equity prices I would have no such concern.
The crew (other than the captain who probably had his own cabin) probably stayed at the lower deck because the gun deck had better ventilation for the passengers. It took a long time after a ship first became visible for a gun battle to occur so the crew had enough time to get ready.
“Paradoxically by being silent I have the biggest impact.”

The impact may not always be positive. In some cases you are uniquely situated to lead, and by turning the opportunity down you create a vacuum for a less savory character to take place and inflict pain onto others.

If you can take a problem where I'm thinking of a recursive solution as the interviewer, but you can come up with an iterative solution and explain why you think it's better, I would give you full marks.
Again, I see what you mean. I am even against nvidia advising the developers to use such or such C++ library (be it GNU). It is not their role to do that. We need smarter and more shining GPUs from nvidia, not software.

I would say .... The hardware must be sold independently of the software ... but it is a bit too complex, I know.
During the supposed golden-age of high income taxes, rich people found many ways around it. For starters non-income compensation was astronomical (company car, company house, company domestic help, company lunches and dinners, company clubs, company-paid memberships, company outings / vacations) which were replaced with normal monetary compensation when the outrageously high taxes ended.

I'm not sure everyone here understands exactly what I'm saying. If you can sometime, talk to a tax accountant / estate planner who specializes in tax minimization. If you are a W2 employee with some equity compensation, none of this applies to you. But if you were worth Nx millions of dollars there is a lot that can be done fairly easily.
The original idea was giving kids a device they could just connect into a TV (no need to buy a new screen) and learn by screwing up like ~"we all did when computers were simpler."

iPads, iPhones, Windows, etc.

They're expensive and complicated. Kids can't take the family computer and screw up installing linux 3 times while Mom needs to do something for work. A $25 computer is something a family could easily afford and so could school districts.
Why do people forget that AI is just a buzzword for some kind of pattern matching ? So it's obviously NOT able to evaluate "creative" capabilites because... well... creativity is about being DIFFERENT and not the same.

Moreover, a site like Facebook is attractive NOT because of its design (mainly) but because of the service it provides. So a Facebook designed clone will have no interest, even if it looks like Facebook.

To me, it looks like it's just the wrong tool for the problem to be solved
Clinton was in fact a centrist "third-way" democrat who often compromised or coopted Republican issues, e.g. welfare reform.

Obama was not as much of a centrist but he was obstructed heavily by the opposition.

I'll continue to blame the people who vote 90% in one direction over the ones who vote 90% the other lol.

Edit: you added some specific comments about immigration. This is correct, Democrats are not very pro-immigration. They are more pro-immigration than the GOP, e.g. DACA order vs. DACA repeal, but the two parties are pretty close on immigration. There is a much bigger gap on issues like healthcare.
It’s not a racist post obviously- but it is false to group people into the American race definitions in a scientific discussion, because it doesn’t hold true and has been debunked a long time ago as a genetic definition.

It can apply from a socio economic angle, but that applies only in America or a country that uses American racial profiles for systemic racism.

Edit: Aware this is a controversial viewpoint in non-scientific communities, so here's some interesting comments from Wikipedia on the subject:

> Modern scholarship regards race as a social construct, an identity which is assigned based on rules made by society.[2] While partially based on physical similarities within groups, race does not have an inherent physical or biological meaning.[1][3][4]

> Social conceptions and groupings of races have varied over time, often involving folk taxonomies that define essential types of individuals based on perceived traits.[5] Today, scientists consider such biological essentialism obsolete,[6] and generally discourage racial explanations for collective differentiation in both physical and behavioral traits.[7][8][9][10][11]

> Even though there is a broad scientific agreement that essentialist and typological conceptualizations of race are untenable,[12][13][14][15][16][17] scientists around the world continue to conceptualize race in widely differing ways.[18] While some researchers continue to use the concept of race to make distinctions among fuzzy sets of traits or observable differences in behavior, others in the scientific community suggest that the idea of race is inherently naive[7] or simplistic.[19] Still others argue that, among humans, race has no taxonomic significance because all living humans belong to the same subspecies, Homo sapiens sapiens.[20][21]
You might want to try an ipad pro + pencil. Personally I like the lack of friction, I can zoom in and out as I write etc. My notes also end up much neater than on paper, particularly during math lectures and when writing proofs, when you always have a bunch of false starts and dead ends!

I also always had a personal hangup about highlighting or writing notes on books ("sacrilege!" :) ), it always felt like I would ruin the book for a future reader. So during a lecture, it's nice to have a PDF copy of the text book imported into the notes software, then I'll sometimes cut and paste diagrams from the book into my notes, or just write notes on the book itself, depending on the situation. It's also pretty nice to be able to take a pic of the board if a prof is going too fast for me, put it directly into the note, then just rewrite it when I get a chance later.

Personally I use notability, which I think is nice, but sometimes gives me problems with syncing and access to my notes when icloud has some bug. So I switch on the setting for backup the entire note to google drive (you can use any cloud storage), just so I can always get access to my notes. It's "only" happened two or three times in three years, but... I think it is an icloud issue, not a notability issue, but I feel like they should be able to architect it so that the local notes are still available in the event of an icloud issue, whereas what actually happens is the local notes disappear - hence the need for the separate cloud backup of the note files!
Oh he didn't have to quit. That was a political decision by Trudeau. Morneau as soon as the news broke of the financial dealings, he "paid back the $40k in travel expenses I had forgotten about".

Trudeau made a calculated political decision - Moreau could hurt the chances of the Liberals staying in office, so he had to go. It also avoided a separate inquiry into Morneau, but at least we'll see what the inquiry finds about the charity overall.

And beyond the Conservative party, nobody in Canada seems to really care.
Personally I just use ESP32 (specifically Lolin D32) in an altoids-type box with a run-of-the-mill small USB power bank taped to the back. Usually with some level shifters and stuff to run the Blinkenlights (FastLED + ws2813).

If that's too ghetto for you, have a look at the M5Stack series. A main unit (ESP32, screen, speaker, TF card reader, in a case with some buttons) costs $35, and the battery module you can stack on is $10. There is even a keyboard and a gameboy-like attachment.

I like the look of the Precursor, but personally the FPGA is a bit off-putting, just because I've never gone down that road.
Why couldn’t a mothballed/not airworthy one be used? So long as you can film the scene at whatever boneyard it’s parked, it seems like the easiest and cheapest option.

Try to eat well. I had no 'dietary education' from my family (basically it was an "eat what you like, when you like") and at 44 I fiscally felt so bad that I went to my doctor saying "I need to be checked as I think I have something really bad". I went through a number of checks and I was fine. This was also worsened as I am not obese, so I did not connect in a first instance my feeling bad with my eating habits.
I decided to loose some weight and I put myself on a quite silly diet since few months now. I am eating mon-fri one time every 24 hours. Basically I have a meal a day (a dinner) and any junk food or sweet has been banned. I have lost weight (and I'm still loosing about 800/1000 grams per week) and I feel great now.
My second advice is to pick a job which aligns with the things you enjoy doing. This will not necessarily lead to money, but still you will enjoy it. Consider we work the majority of our time.
There is not.

Especially if you think about what you want to measure you see the difficulty: should it pass as human? should it help you? should it entertain you?

Windows Server vulnerability requires immediate attention
Sorry, related to cpu and host memory , I was wrong. I meant : having the GPU seller control/write code that plays with host cpu and memory is bad. Let people use their own gcc/g++ or whatever compiler and publish the specs. Unless they also start selling CPUs.
The issue is that the Pi does something that is almost-but-not-quite PXE. In particular, the RPI firmware does not send anything that identifies itself as an RPI so that the DHCP server can determine what packet to send in response -- the option 60 string it sends in the DISCOVER packet claims to the DHCP server that it is an X86 server running in legacy BIOS mode. The only way the RPI will boot is if you send it that extra magic option 43. For those of us that write DHCP servers that try to be intelligent about how to respond to PXE requests, the plethora of stupid not-exactly-PXE mechanisms the various ARM SBC hobbyist boards are annoying as fuck. At least the server class ARM stuff usually has a UEFI implementation that adheres to the UEFI extensions to the PXE spec and properly identifies itself with options 60, 93, and 94.
This is what AppFS does, as well as CernVM-FS, though AppFS has more features
And the fallacy you are making is describing adding more shit sauce on top as "a layered defense". A layered defense is when you take multiple, individually sane steps, with well defined boundaries to reduce risks that remain despite following good engineering practice. Some aspects of WAF may fit this bill, but SQL Injection defence assuredly does not.

There is no way in hell that something that basically takes arbitrary input without any context and says "oh, well, this looks a bit too much like an SQL fragment for my liking, let's corrupt it a bit, lest some piece of garbage downstream tries to string interpolate executable code together with it and it'll end in tears" will not, in some cases, cause other problems, maybe even security-relevant ones.

It's real easy not to have SQL injection exploits, you inform people that using anything apart from prepared statements to talk to the DB is a firing offence. If software vendors would face liability claims as other engineering professions do, this would be fixed overnight. As things are, I'm 100% sure you are wrong and there are countless places that do know they have exploits and just slap Cloudflare on top as a bandaid.
Im actually a lot more interested in rendering and the programming side of graphics. Its just wherever I search I can't find a clear cut path for this ... this isn't something I want to transition into next year - fundamentally I want to understand the systems of rendering and probably transition in into a consultant of sorts in the graphics field. Im sorry I know its vague... but I can't be more clear either
Hah. I never thought I'd see CSUS here on HN. I briefly went there, but wasn't in CS. In the early 2000's, I worked in a large finance company in Sacramento. Our tech lead spent a not insignificant portion of his time interviewing people. He always complained how Sac State grads never knew anything software relevant coming out of that program. They didn't know any web technologies or Java, a little C, but they were all whizzes at hardware, COBOL, and assembly.

Looks like I underestimated that program in the 90's. This article gives me a bit of a hint of where they were focused.
You’re obviously too intelligent for me, what a zinger. This sort of mental gymnastics you play is really detrimental to long term happiness, but to each their own.

> That's not exactly a ringing endorsement, is it? Sure, the malware situation on Android is better than Windows. It's still far worse compared to iOS.

> If you believe this has "worked out well" for Android, you and I must have very different definitions of the phrase.

Yes, it's a ringing endorsement. Android is good enough - actually, better than good enough. I've seen at least five cases of Windows malware from friends and family over the years, and zero Android cases.

As the article you listed above shows, xHelper has had 33K detected cases. That's literally two decimal orders of magnitude less than Conficker, which had over 9M cases, in 2008, when there were, if anything, fewer Windows devices than there are Android devices now.

iOS is only better than Android because it sacrifices a lot of user freedom for a little security - which is not an acceptable tradeoff. If I pay for a device, I (should) own it - not the company. If you, personally, are not going to check the box that says "let me install third-party apps" then you, personally, are at no risk of infection, and you have absolutely no right to tell me that you think that I should not have the right to check that box.

> Don't you think there's a direct correlation between the ability to install APKs from random shady internet sources and the spread of malware on Android? Even macOS has a worse malware situation than iOS for the exact same reason.

Yes, there's a direct correlation. If you give users sharp tools, the dumb ones will stab themselves. This is normal, and good. Users deserve the sharp tools. Put a sheath around them, but device makers intentionally restricting users from things that they might reasonably want to do, for the sake of their own profit, is borderline theft.

> You also didn't address my other point, which is sandboxing is only meant to address operating system level security, not developer abuse of legitimate APIs.

Yes, because developer abuse of legitimate APIs is irrelevant to what we're talking about here, which is whether or not to allow third-party app stores. Why? Because (a) both Apple and Google's app store review processes have let malware through before and (b) sandboxing, which doesn't necessarily prevent developers from abusing legitimate APIs, is necessary for it - and both iOS and Android take advantage of sandboxing to make it harder for devs to do bad things. For instance, iOS (now) gives you a notification if an application accesses the clipboard. Even better, there are modifications for Android that allow you to intercept and fake API data (so that an application doesn't refuse to work if you deny it access to an API) - which is significantly better than anything you can get on iOS.

The twitter & politics seem so true. This is a little goofy but I’ve gone to lengths like journaling my mood to “prove” the wisdom of this for me, but old habits yadda yadda. Do you remember any kind of “inflection point”, was it a habit you broke or a natural proclivity or “aha” moment? I’m interested in the sausage-making of how people acquire this wisdom :-).

> Once those younger people swallow their pride and move home ... there really isn't anything pulling them back.

I just left a remote oriented(Major infrastructure automation startup) to work for a company in a HCOL area. Just completed the 2200 mile trek back from “home” with the pets and the family on Monday.

Anecdotal but the prospect of raising my kid in the middle of nowhere back “home” was not appealing. If I lost my remote gig I would have to take a 50% pay cut to hopefully find a job at one of a few employers locally- or pray I could get another remote gig in a very competitive job market.

Better nature, better job market and higher pay were a deciding factor. Just saying there are plenty of things that might pull a young person like myself and my partner back other than “pride.”

The vector extension is still in draft and still changing. We don't want to add support that we will have to remove later if the proposal changes again. But we have support in the rvv-intrinsic branch at github.com/riscv/riscv-gnu-toolchain. There is also LLVM work, they have different rules for development, so are handling this differently.

There's no need to learn "all the assembly" of a modern processor, just the basic instructions and maybe write a few simple programs to understand what's going on. Even though writing assembly is hardly needed today, being able to read and understand assembly is very valuable for debugging and optimization sessions.
Just because value is logically "cheaper" doesn't mean its a prudent strategy...

Should definitely reconsider putting all your eggs in one basket when it comes to value vs growth.
“In a study of over 28,000 students in Switzerland, 62% of economics students gave money at least once to help students in need, compared with 69% of non-economics students. These differences were already present before the students took a single economics course: students with lower giving rates were drawn to economics. As freshmen, before their first lectures, 71% of the students who chose economics contributed, compared with 75% of non-economists.”

That’s...not a significant finding by any means.

Secondly, I would take these psychological studies with truckloads of salt. In what is possibly the most damning indictment of the social sciences: they have among the lowest replication rate of any of the sciences, and even after retraction (due to replication failure), the vast majority of positive citations continue after retraction, specifically in the social sciences: https://fantasticanachronism.com/2020/09/11/whats-wrong-with...

They also enable "early exiting" a block, so it's much easier to check for an error in the middle of a block: currently you'd need extra indentation or a `map` / `and_then` (which can lead to the compiler being unhappy as it has more flexibility within a function than across functions). So e.g.

let result = {
let a = a_thing();
let b = another_thing();
let c = a.foo(b)?;
if c.a_thing() {
Ok(c)
} else {
Err(…)
}
};

which currently has to be written

let result = {
let a = a_thing();
let b = another_thing();
a.foo(b).and_then(|c|
if c.a_thing() {
Ok(c)
} else {
Err(…)
}
)
}

which doesn't look too bad for a simple example but can get out of hand if you need multiple thus, and as mentioned above the compiler can start being an issue if you work across-functions a lot.

When I was younger, I could skip most of the homework because I learned enough during class. The mandatory assignments were sometimes finished quickly just before I had to turn them in.

I didn't get the necessary practice and discipline to do independent work unless I did it for fun. This had to be learned the hard way when I grew older.
