I think whether the engines are ICE, hybrid, or electric is not key. More technology can actually make it more boring and the number of restrictions has increased through the years because of that.

Agreed, fixing real estate crisis is taking money away from the main wealth storage of most people. Apart from a catastrophe I don't see the elected officials do anything about it.
I think it's first important to know what you're studying and how many subjects you're studying. This article https://leveragethoughts.substack.com/p/do-not-engage-the-mi... will help you out on this

It's incredibly common to find smart people trying to engage their mind in the intense pursuit of too many things at once. Therefore it's important that one narrows their focus.

Once the above is done, you need create a schedule to do deep work. The schedule should be frequent and consistent.

Deep work is achieved when you're in the state of flow. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi has a great book called Flow:The Psychology of Happiness which you can find at https://amzn.to/2F4QR80

You also need to ensure that you have the right environment to do deep work. What a right environment is a bit subjective. What's important is that your environment does not have anything competing for your attention.
All the major toolchains work on Linux. I personally liked Pynq http://www.pynq.io/, it works fairly well and is beefy enough to do non-toy projects with it. For something totally barebones you can try https://www.latticesemi.com/Products/DevelopmentBoardsAndKit..., it has the advantage that it has a very nice open source tool flow available for it: http://www.clifford.at/icestorm/. I own both boards and I work professionally with EDA tools, honestly the biggest cliff is setting up tooling and processes around a given project. If you don't want to do everything from scratch you need to either rely on proprietary libraries, which will cost you a fortune and/or lock you into a very specific tool flow (Synopsis Designware libraries). The other alternative is to use one of the open source ecosystems like https://github.com/m-labs/migen or tooling around Chisel or various scattered libraries of open-source components which are often hard to get to work together, but also this requires a massive amount of time investment to just get the synthesis / simulation flow working.

The situation is slowly improving and there are various university research groups and corporations that have released larger amounts of open source code that one can use as a starting point:

- https://github.com/openhwgroup/cva6 (mostly done by ETHZ people initially, also see https://github.com/pulp-platform/pulpino)

- https://github.com/chipsalliance/Cores-SweRV-EL2 (one of several high quality open-source RISC-V cores by Western Digital)

- https://github.com/chipsalliance/rocket-chip (UCB by initial creators of RISC-V)

- https://github.com/electronicvisions/nux (POWER based embedded processor, that we have used in several neuromorphic chip tapeouts (silicon proven))

On the tooling side one great thing that happened is that the verilator open source simulator has gained a lot of traction.

- https://github.com/verilator/verilator

On the hardware synthesis side some exciting developments are also happening, mostly driven by the desire of companies like Google to be vendor independent for their Deep learning accelerator designs and through funding by DARPA.

i see what you are saying and categorically (but politely) refuse what you are saying.

whether you want to take it or not is upto you. India is far far more employee friendly than Europe and most parts of US.

The point of what you are talking about from a legal system is inapplicable to labor laws. I can throw the same Black-Lives-Matters issues in US courts to you and ask you to go and check New York courts for the same.

In the same vein, I can throw Anthony Levandowski case and make the claim that California is unfriendly to employees. Neither of them is true and neither is the fact that India is at all unfriendly to employees.

Quite the opposite we have a rich ecosystem of employees founding startups - Flipkart, Ola, Unacademy, Paytm are the new founding "mafias" of India. There is exactly zero cases of employees have lawsuits by their employers.

Indian (and the US) legal system and their myriad problems are true - with all its racist vs religious biases - but that has nothing to do with California employment practice or the Indian ones
In my limited experience with lawyers, they always advise conservatism. That's not to say they're always wrong. But they don't have much incentive to say, "Go for it!" Even if you're 95% chance likely to have things work out okay, what would the lawyer get in that situation? Nothing. And in the 5% of cases they'd be excoriated for giving their client bad advice.

Some of the best motor racing I've personally seen was open class motorcycle racing. It was the 90s, so you had road legal GSXR1100s with the lights taped up, mixing it with 125cc Grand Prix bikes.

I don't get why you couldn't do similar with F1. Make it open slather: if it passes scrutineering, carries a driver, and is safe to be near on a track (no rockets) then go nuts.

Surely part of the expense in F1, and part of the fact that it is increasingly technologically irrelevant, is the incredibly tight restrictions on engineering and testing?
What's some alternatives to this, that also has "scenarios" or similar so you could simulate real user flows, but a lot of them? Should be self-hosted.

What I've found so far:

- jmeter - classic, true and tested, works well but config format is a hassle to deal with

- gatling - works well in general, but the reporting in the open source version is very basic, probably because they have "enterprise" features around reporting (that starts at $400/month)
I guess I'm not understanding your use case, if it's not periodic invocation. Why you were calling Sleep(1)? Why was a 16ms sleep problematic in that case?
Without these funds the infrastructure would either be poor or non-existent, making it expensive or unrealistic to move goods and people around within a country like Poland.

When I emigrated to Poland in 2005 (from the US) driving between Krakow and Gdynia at never more than 15% over the speed limit of 90 km/h (the average speed everyone else is travelling at) (but often under 90 km/h due to many lorries on the road, tractors, accidents, people in elderly Fiats, elderly people in Peugeots/Fiats/Polonez/etc) with three 15 minute stops the driving time was about 10.5 to 11 hours. Now it's about 7 to 7.5 hours (two stops, not three, and usually driving right at the speed limit).

The change is because of the introduction of the proper A1 motorway. Two lanes each direction and, most places, rated for 140 km/h.

I should note that the "proper" A1 isn't yet complete. There's no A-class motorway between Krakow and Czestochowa though it's being built and should be complete in a few years.

Maintenance on the thousands of kilometers of motorways (and highways and smaller roads) will undoubtedly be a significant expense in the future. But those roads allow for a staggering quantity of goods (and people) to be moved about quickly, safely, and inexpensively (even accounting for tolls). I doubt that our current government is setting aside money for maintenance for all of that but the potential incompetence of today's government shouldn't be a reason not to do something that will have ripple effects for decades.

Interesting.

There's an obvious conflict of interest in reducing another user's karma risks their ability to also downvote. (Of course, just because it's imperfect doesn't mean it's a bad system.) If this is the intended usage then perhaps it would be fair to expand downvoting rights to other users?
This is what you responded to, this is what is being advocated.

> "Hi! First let me say how much I appreciate this library, it really helps with X.

When I, or anyone else in this thread advocates for adding a life story into a bug report or the like, then you can bring in your stories about stories and it'll be relevant.

> Is the message you want to convey simply that I should not volunteer my time to helping people?

Quite obviously not, it's that you should stop comparing yourself to those in life threatening, intensely time pressured situations and try to be more pleasant to those you're responding to, not trying to find excuses around doing so. You work in a pleasant environment, with low pressure, and are well rewarded, you definitely have the time to be well mannered.

> maintainers who prefer ass kissing are egotistical and dominating

It's not about "ass kissing" but basic respect, and if you wanted to provide an example of how not to exercise restraint and apply any semblance of etiquette, that would be a good one. Do you ever wonder why development is a "sausage fest" instead of the emergency room?
How nice of them to grant you permission to run their software on your machine!
It's unlikely this will have had much impact since most reported cases were only a few days late but come on guys, really?

Correct. You've clearly had to deal with precise Windows timing as well!

To add, it's pretty shocking there's nothing better in the kernel mode either. It's just as bad as in the user mode.

You actually have to generate an interrupt on a hardware device (like a PCI card) to get good timing performance out of Windows!

Rob Pike's rules are still as relevant as ever, also for web dev:

Rule 1. You can't tell where a program is going to spend its time. Bottlenecks occur in surprising places, so don't try to second guess and put in a speed hack until you've proven that's where the bottleneck is.

Rule 2. Measure. Don't tune for speed until you've measured, and even then don't unless one part of the code overwhelms the rest.

I feel the point is that there is not much to learn concerning english grammar since it is so simple compared to say french or german so the teacher reach for arcane trivia to fill out the school year.

Maybe it is like english spelling that seems to mainly be designed to not look childish. Murder of crows sounds very poetic compared to flock.
I was going to say that this has a weakness in testing because you can't `assert(end > start)` without knowing which is which because `assert(later > sooner)` will always be true but then I guess you'd have input (and other) validations before it got to that point anyway.
Overblown, IMO - only the useless absolute figure is affected, so it just creates another reason it's useless.

Unless positive result files are more likely to exceed the file size limit than negative ones, of course, which I haven't heard suggested is the case.

Edit: Perhaps I should clarify that I'm not suggesting it isn't a cockup. I just don't see it as a massive scandal that renders the data useless - it just decreased the sample size. What particularly wound me up was a Radio 4 presenter this morning objecting to the guest (I missed the start, I'm not sure exactly who - a female public or civil servant) calling it a 'glitch'. ('Really?! Really! 16000 missing cases is a glitch?!') Well, yes. Glitches can have minor, severe, catastrophic, or no consequences.
A term of venery is a specific type of collective noun: more or less, collective nouns for animals made up by bored aristocrats in the middle ages (or more recently, but in the same tradition). As a result, most are never used in conversation by people who actually work with those animals.

I noticed that they disabled downloading on mobile as well, when I open a link from amazon to download the music I just bought they told me to download their stupid app and and export from that to my filesystem. After setting it up there was no option to export, so I forced the desktop site with firefox and could download after clicking through two dialouges that tried to convince me that downloading is _really_ not what I want to do. Never bought any media on amazon again after that.

For Facebook, I think we wouldn't want just another giant Facebook2 to pop-up in it's place. It's important that the FTC (or Congress) stress real data portability, privacy regulations and even protocols/standards if needed to tie everything together in a post-Facebook social media. Though I have doubts about just how much of this will be accomplished.

No, but some timing related aspects are different on multi CPU socket systems.

Like it might be much (even 1000x) slower to read QueryPerformanceCounter due to cross-CPU synchronization issues.
Would you mind expanding on this?

To my mind, it's hard to credit that a term used since the middle ages is "false", but I am curious about your reasoning.
In a similar vain I've used https://github.com/shellinabox/shellinabox (present in the standard Debian repo) to give easy access to a few commands to relevant people at work who don't like my preferred method for such temporary/intermittent needs (a collection of ssh/sudo/similar based wrappers sometimes hooked together using byubo/parallel-ssh/watch to produce a hacked-together dashboard like display). Mostly read-only stuff (the fully interactive use is possible), even then nothing really sensitive (mostly status information), and local access only (I wouldn't trust something like this on a public network, no matter how careful I thought I was being with the setup), but that is useful enough. For a quick dashboard view, throw together a quick page that links a couple of instances in iframes.

Again. Sleep(1) is just a shorthand to discuss about this topic. Exact same behavior affects every other Windows timing mechanism as well.
People use excel sheets as databases all the time because it doesn't require any specialist knowledge to build or use.

Sure, we techy types prefer a proper database with a web frontend and an API, but that requires significantly more skill to build than an excel file.

No database has the flexibility and flat learning curve that excel has.

Until a database manages to meet these goals, it remains a good tool for certain usecases.

We as engineers should be working towards making a real database thats just as easy to use as excel, and only then can we complain that people are using excel sheets for this kind of stuff.

From my research into the topic I've labeled microdosing
under "cool homeopathy".
Because once a thread is done with all available work, it has to sleep/wait, the only other alternative is busy waiting(awful idea). So if you see ok, there is no more available work, and call sleep(1), and some more work comes in 2ms later, that work might not be picked up for a whole next 14ms. That is the core of the problem.

Like, you are focusing on the sleep(1) part too much - what I want to do is "wait until there is more work available to process, and then wake up and start processing as soon as physically possible". On Windows the "as soon as physically possible" part is unfortunately 16ms in most cases, and that's just not acceptable for something as precise as audio work.
