Oh for sure, the 4850e was purpose-built for low power when it was my daily driver. Now it only runs a few hours a week if that.

I should grab the meter and see if its idle power consumption changed much, though. Obviously it's not running hard most of the time...
> That said there are ALL KINDS of interop code that is at risk with the ruling

Yes, there are parties that stand to lose a lot in the short term from a decision for Oracle.

But would it be so bad in the long term if proprietary vendor-specific protocols were put at a disadvantage? Maybe back-to-basics open protocols (or at least protocols formally contributed to the public domain) would resurge, and interoperability would actually _increase._
How interesting!! Thanks for sharing this. Let me get back to you in 20 years on how settling went for me.

> only a certain stance on controversial issues is acceptable, and implying (or stating outright) that divergence from this orthodoxy amounts to an affront to human dignity

There are a variety of controversial issues where one position is a literal affront to human dignity (i.e., a deliberate act of disrespect).

> This kind of rhetoric creates a hostile and toxic work environment

This is a privileged view of the situation.

As a simple example, imagine you have three coworkers: Alex, Blake, and Taylor.

Alex believes that Taylor should not have been allowed to have married their current spouse, and posts on their personal Twitter account advocating that the decisions which allowed that to be possible be repealed.

Alex hasn't shared their beliefs in a work setting, but did tweet something about the company and as a result Taylor saw the other tweets and learned how Alex felt.

Taylor believes that Alex's position is a deliberate act of disrespect. Taylor fears a decision that would result in no longer being married to their spouse, which would lead to problems with medical insurance, child custody, finances, etc. Taylor doesn't feel safe working with someone who actively wishes to destroy a meaningful part of their life.

Taylor asks the company to make a statement supporting their right to have married their partner.

Blake says that Taylor is creating a hostile and toxic work environment.

Is Blake right? Or is Taylor acting in self defensive, in response to an already-hostile and already-toxic work environment? Is the discomfort felt by Blake acceptable "collateral damage"?

Do your answers change if the hypothetical scenario is not about a same-sex couple in 2020 following Obergefell, but an interracial couple in California in 1950 following the ruling of anti-miscegenation laws as unconstitutional?
> I bet a lot of design and architecture validation is done on big FPGAs.

There was a talk at 32c3 (2015) by David Kaplan from AMD about developing and testing/verifying real world x86 CPU designs:

Around minute ~11/12 he briefly mentions (among other methods) emulation on massive FPGA workstations costing something in the order of $1M.
Even as the single human species we used to be spread into isolated groups, that's why different populations have specificities (e.g. skin colour, but also other adaptations).

Now that we have such a huge and interconnected population diversity will fade and adaptation will slow.

No. Putting $500 for stocks of a company that you believe in and have a good product is absolutely not called getting lucky. Putting that $500 into penny stocks is.
My first couple of years at Amazon I was completely mystified by Brazil, version sets, and VFIs. Eventually the lightbulb clicked and when I moved on to a company with a monorepo I really missed Brazil. My main gripe with Brazil is that there are few ways to use it properly and a lot of ways to use it wrong and when you use it wrong you easily fall into dependency hell.
WASI is the tip of the iceberg for a UI application; its scope doesn’t extend outside of the kind of things you can access with your friendly neighborhood libc.
I think the parent wanted to point out that this is about a completely different problem. The algorithm mentioned works on cities that are defined with coordinates in some plane and where the distances between two points is defined as the geometric distance. The article talks about the problem where the distances between cities are given (and not based on their coordinates). The later is a much harder problem.
I always wanted solar. But I live in an apartment. I found some solutions, and now sell simplified versions of them.

Ah, I used Ant Colony Optimization to solve it a long time ago. I love simulated annealing, but in many cases the swarm based methods seem to perform better.
> ts being placed into class named java.lang.Math, though, is not. That is a product of the way it is arranged, which is a matter of design, not of necessity. It's hard to imagine any particular reason why a function would need to have "java" in its name in order correctly calculate the maximum of two numbers.

But if you want to be interoperable with programs that expect to be able to find the max of two numbers using the specific name "java.lang.Math.max", then the name _is_ part of the function. It's kind of like an electircal outlet. The shape of the outlet doesn't really matter as far as delivering electricity, but if you want people to be able to plug in their existing devices, it needs to be in a shape that is compatible with those devices.
.DS_Store is really really annoying for everyone who isn’t on macOS though. It feels like throwing trash on the floor in every room you go in.

It’s particularly annoying when you ram a USB stick in a TV and have to play “find which file is the film you wanted to watch”.

Granted we have our thumbs.db as well.

As for the solution, if you can switch to OpenBSD on a Thinkpad, having macOS to start with sounds a bit like choosing the wrong tool for the job.
Contrary to popular knowledge, free market companies don't grow to take over the world. They grow until they get strangled by their own bureaucracy, and then rot away to be replaced by a younger, nimbler company without the bureaucracy.

> don't know their incompetence and decide to vote regardless

That's a very wrong way to understand what democracy means. If you're incompetent, you are still afforded a vote. And you sleep on the bed you make.

and in any case, the incompetence voter implies that they could be voting "wrong". This is a deep and insidious implication because implying something can be wrong also implies the other "competent" voters are "right". The very notion that one side is "right" is very anti-democratic.

I make money on copyright and I would still be for - at least - significant shortening of the terms.

10 years from creation = automatic and free. More than that for an exponentially rising yearly fee. 11th year 100 dollars, 12th year 200 dollars, 13th year 400 dollars etc.

There would be another advantage, a searchable database of copyrighted items older than 10 years.
I imagine such detail wouldn't make it to the news. That probably exists but nobody cares because they'll lose interest before they get half way through reading it. Same way that (almost) nobody cares about side-by-side searching of their speeches. There are also voting records that you can look at to see what they really stand for, but again, nobody cares enough to bother.
Maybe, just maybe you're the one of the opposite cliffs edge. But no, you'd never consider that.
I believe that this is about a different type of TSP problem, where the distances between cities are defined by the geometric distance from their coordinates in some plane (or on a sphere). This is a simpler problem than when the distances are specified as (whole) numbers.

YMMV but I personally separate adapters into dongles (one input, one output) and hubs (N inputs, one output). There's also docks, but those are just stationary hubs.
Yeah, but those channels are for effectively doxxing LEA workers in Belarus (and people affiliated with them).

While sympathetic to the protest movement there I'm feeling really conflicted in regards to its contents and if channels for coordination of bullying should be accepted on any platform, whatever the reason.
Not really. A lot of people consider good APIs a work of art, independently of the implementation.

I'm not sure if there are any hollow moldings still around. The closest equivalent I'm aware of is Legrand's Wiremold[0] line, which includes cable raceways that are functionally equivalent to hollow moldings. However, these parts are designed for the commercial electrical market and would be difficult to fit into residential decor.

From the readers side I prefer that approach, too - I’d rather have the content available with some typos than stuck in the editing pipeline of the author. If it’d be a book or some professional publication, I’d probably have higher expectations, but for someone who has no dedicated person hunting copy mistakes - let’s cut them some slack.
> As applied to Java, individual method signatures like min and max might not be copyrightable, but someone had to go in and organize those individual methods into classes, and organize those classes into packages. That act of organization likely implies that the Java API (taken as a whole) constitutes a copyrightable work, even if the individual method signatures are not.

As an IP-minimalist, I'm surprised anyone can look at the mental gymnastics that people go through in order to draw some arbitrary line between acceptable and unacceptable copying, and come to any other conclusion than "this whole system is ludicrous".
For this USB-C has been a godsend. With one cable I get power, monitor, mouse, keyboard, webcam, and audio. Super easy to switch between laptop and desktop while using same peripherals. I don't miss the dongles a bit.

rurban often gets flak for his method of communication, which is generally blunt. Whether from a language barrier or just how he communicates, I think people have a problem separating the message from the delivery, so that might be what's going on here.

I agree with his assessment that it's probably just someone's mistake. I also personally wouldn't have worded quite that way, even if technically correct (incompetent is fairly harsh wording in English). I don't think it's worth down voting over.
How do you have any clue what users want? How are you confident that what you value is what others value?

> Say what you will about Amazon's frugality, their turnover, and their perks, but the tools available at Amazon make it a world-class place to build software.

Haha, funny. I mainly object to the fawning here. There's a lot of good ideas in the build system, but there's also more to it, like CI. Any (hypothetical) build system that runs the tests after commits have been merged is not great. Does constantly blocked pipelines sound fun? (Edit: one of the comments mentioned dry-runs, but for example, if the merge behaviour of the code review tool was atrocious, so people were accustomed to overriding it, and people did not pay attention to the dry-run, because there's no huge green tick like GitHub, then that may be ignored far too often)

There's also other issues. A build system that was originally made for e.g. C++ might struggle with other languages, and the experience be sucky. As good as something like Apollo sounds it might not deal too well with deploying e.g. Lambdas, or other cloud resources.

Don't drink the cool aid. There are some good lessons to be learned, but you can have a pretty great system with e.g. GitHub or GitLab - maybe even better for developer productivity while not being weighed down by years of legacy and inertia.
This could be an area of improvement. E.g. I don't think adding metadata to packages would be particularly complicated and that could help (e.g. using tags) with discovery.
Yeah, some people really want to stay out of the limelight... quite literally, in this case. And looks like he largely succeeded - I would describe myself as fairly familiar with rock music, and I have heard of most of the acts he has collaborated with, but the name Robert Fripp didn't ring a bell...

But if you wanted proof that the kind of toxicity we see on the Internet nowadays did exist before (but wasn't available for everyone to see and amplify), this "fan" letter is a very good example!

Thank you. It can work on any micro-controller platform given that it is platform agnostic. FsmPro has a provision for including header files which can be your microcontroller driver files. You can also graphically link dependencies with other modules.

On installing the tool, you would have an example project open by itself which should help. There are multiple examples in the installation directory of your computer. I hope I answered your query.
Glassdoor asks to leave a review for your current company or share your pay before looking up in detail about other companies. I wrote a review about my current company just for this reason but it was a honest review and not overly positive etc.
It's attributing the error to incompetence instead of malice. It's not particularly unfair, it's providing an alternate explanation, if a bit bluntly.
In my experience (because of my work I have macbooks, linux machines and a windows machine), linux with i3 beats mac os x and windows on battery life by a (very) large margin; in some cases 3x (for instance on x220 2011 with 9 cell, I get 4 hrs under windows and 15 under linux/i3) with the same workload. Obviously I run the Linux battery tools, but so do the other OSs their own.

i3 here is the ‘magic’ part because with other, more mac/windows like window managers, the battery life is comparable, however, I cannot turn those off on mac/win so I cannot test if that is really the case. But if I use, say, unity, the battery life drops to at or below what it does with it’s native system.
Honestly the one piece of advice I can give is make sure you follow through and actually do something about it. Even if your message goes through to the wrong person they will almost certainly redirect it internally so it gets heard, so don't be put off.

Given the asymmetric nature of feedback (people are much more likely to contact you to complain than to praise) I absolutely love it when I get positive feedback about people in my team from clients etc, and it often helps provide evidence for me to justify an unusually fast promotion, salary bump etc.

The goal here is not to expose truth per se, the goal is to merely to expose the underlying agendas by highlighting the topics the sides prefer to highlight or avoid in their version of what they consider "reality". That, and perhaps also provide exposure to opinions outside the bubble, for people concerned that their reality might not be entirely real, irrespective of affiliation. The bubbles are stronger than they've ever been. You can't break out of them without making a deliberate effort.

Aircraft fuses exist not to save the several hundred-thousand dollar avionics install, but specifically to protect the wire from melting, shorting, or starting fires where fire does not belong [1] (page 11-15, para. 11-51).

> We ended up using a circulator, and used a single fiber for full-duplex without issues.

Great hack.

BTW, I always want to see if a circulator can be used as a Wi-Fi booster. A typical Wi-Fi chipset has a noise figure around 6 dB, in principle, if a high-performance LNA is used, connected via a circulator (so the Wi-Fi doesn't transmit into the amplifier), 3 or 5 dB improvement for RX should be possible (and without violating any radio regulation!). But I don't have to tolerate the horrible campus network since then, I don't have any motivation to try it anymore...

I've founded and been running an independent software product for 10+ years and have lately recorded about 25 screencasts on lessons learned. Watch them at Semicolon&Sons https://www.semicolonandsons.com/

Topics include:

— The consequences of your attitude towards dependencies 10 years down the line

— Systems to reduce errors (and alert you of them when they do happen)

— Lots of command line fu (+ vim)

— Monitoring production services

— Softer stuff related to the commercialization of software (my screencasts come from the point of view that software is a means to an end). Therefore there's stuff on MVPs, SEO, Analytics, etc.

— Continuous integration testing systems and optimization

I try as best I can to make the screencasts language agnostic.
