We can easily reduce this to effectively time=0 which is an infinite speedup.

Since the membership of any of the local cells in the global cells is static, we only have to compute this once. Then we add a globalCell parameter to each local cell to specify which global cell it's contained in.

If this uses up too much memory, we could go to a slower but still much, much faster than the blog post's method of something like:

- Create 2d array where the 1st dimension is a sorted list of local row values, one per global row value, that represent the maximum X value within any global cell. Then the the 2nd dimension are local column values, one per global column value that similarly correspond to the maximum Y value of any local cell per global cell. (mapping the coordinates to an array)

- Find the entry that the current local row value fits into (for example the entry with a value higher than the local row value, which is higher than the next list entry).

- This selects a second dimension array for that global row that has similar properties: it's only necessary to then find which value the local row fits into to determine the global cell (which would be the array's value at that index).
For HTTP? Basically just multihoming. For everything else? Multiplexing streams, multihoming, reliable datagrams, out of order delivery, in order delivery of datagrams, resistance to SYN floods, etc. It's basically a swiss-army knife transport protocol. By far the biggest drawback of SCTP is lack of widespread support. Linux and the BSDs have it implemented in the kernel but Windows and macOS only have third party implementations. It can be implemented in userspace, but now you have to tunnel all of it over UDP instead of just native SCTP and now you need to worry about separate userspace implementations conflicting by trying to use the same UDP port if you want to host it as a server.

The protocol does support anticollision so technically multiple cards (the NFC-enabled phone, which simply emulates one) can work and the card terminal would let you pick which one to choose, but in practice I don't think that is implemented and the choice of card you'd end up paying with is essentially "undefined behavior".

Those are different units. You're making an assumption that the user watches every video in their library once per month. I doubt it. My bet is that someone with a big video library will watch significantly less than half the content each month (including repeats).

Or in other words, look at it more like 1c/GB vs. 6c/GB-year.
If the situation was reversed, where poorer employees were living with their parents, people would be upset with the inequality too. Even more so if the ones who were not living with their parents got stabilized rent after 5 years, or bought property and saw their equity rise in value.
Pretty sure they do transcribe locally and only send text to cloud to interpret it. So still not private, but no audio is sent (unless for special cases).
I also think the market is pretty saturated if not about to taper. Amazon and Google have been all over this market for years and there's just no big value prop. 99% of the use is just as a smart speaker. I'd bet very few do home automation. Some are doing a bit of voice commerce if they're bought into the Amazon ecosystem. Apple doesn't offer much beyond cool product design. If someone was going to bust open this space it would be Spotify.

Upon further reflection, the magnets might have been a necessary tweak to the AirPower concept. They couldn’t get it working with a large matrix of coils, on which you could lay the phone/watch anywhere. Instead, the combo charging mat shown in today’s presentation will use magnets to force proper placement on the mat.

Oh, yeah, Ars is pretty dark, but where it really comes up a lot is amongst child pornographers and terrorists. In fact, it's been shown that when a new pilot wave paper lands, productivity (such as it is) in those areas drops precipitously for a time. In fact it's a robust enough result that it forms a strong argument for increasing science funding.

More seriously, I interpreted "darker corners of the internet" in the parent to be a bit tongue in cheek, but to generally be indicating fora where there's a higher ratio of layman to expert, and crackpot to serious practitioner. There was no claim that it isn't discussed outside of that setting, just that it occurs more frequently there (as a proportion of QM discussions in general). This squares with my (poorly informed) general impression.

PCI, HIPAA and GDPR all would agree that most of your users most of the time should not have any access to sensitive data. It's reasonable to have users VPN'ing in only when/if they need access to a specific system storing sensitive data, and even then, have only that access happen through that VPN, there's no need to pass their Zoom conference through the same VPN, and it would be a benefit (or even a requirement) to ensure that the sensitive data is separate from their Zoom conference. E.g. a remote desktop access that prohibits copy/pasting and file exchange so that you can't accidentally get the sensitive data to your email or chat environment.
Sure, imagine all nodes are crashed (due to poweroff) in the middle of two proposers A and B doing Phase2 with the same proposal-number, but different values. Remember, they can go to Phase2 cause their proposal-number is the largest ever seen when they are the first.

Proposer-A received Phase2 votes from nodes n_1,...n_f and Proposer-B received one vote from n_f+1 when power is off and other nodes n_f+2, n_f+3...n_2f+1 don't know anything about the Phase2.

Now, consider the case when power is back and only the first F+1 nodes came back online. System is expected to continue with F+1 live nodes.

Proposer-C now does Phase-1 with the same proposal-number. He is expected to pick the already voted value associated with the max proposal-number from the Phase-1 responses, but there are two different values and he can't determine what to pick.

Management pseudoscientists would be positively frothing at the mouth if it could tell you what your DiSC color profile is.
The other big component is using Bayesian inference. For that you need a prior. What's the prior for this? You could look at incidents the US has had in similar freedom of navigation actions, what China has done with other countries, or other similar situations. For example, I can only think of a few similar incidents, and none that escalated to fatalities at sea. So your prior would probably be pretty small, say 1%. After that you would adjust according to new data. For example, China seems willing to do more risky stuff lately, with India being a perfect example. You might raise your estimate based on that. So maybe that raises your estimate to 2%. But it probably shouldn't completely alter your estimate.

Hmm... my multithreaded strategy typically uses task-based parallelism with a thread-pool.

In particular: #pragma omp task

Those omp-tasks can "float" between threads, depending on your implementation. If some task enters a blocking situation (usually a task-barrier), it could switch to another pthread during the implementation.

Ex: Task A is running on Hardware-Thread#10. Task A mallocs something from Thread#10's local malloc. Task A calls barrier, which means Thread#10 "gives up Task A" back to the work queue.

Later, all tasks hit the barrier, and Task A can run again. But which threads run TaskA is left up to the runtime. Thread#25 might be running the task now. At this point, Thread#25 calls free(fooptr), but it now has to be a global-synchronization, since the data came from Thread#10's pool.

----------

Its probably not safe to assume thread-local storage to be sufficient for task-based parallelism.
The do really well in areas like middle America where the options are limited. I am not surprised they are doing so well.
For sure, writing your own allocator is the last thing you reach for after all else fails. I've never needed to do so in practice. My allocator was fast because it had no thread safety, no debugging features, raw pointer arithmetic (hard to read code), and no/optional error checking.
It's probably worse for the economy for the company to have that extra revenue to use on hoarding or stock buybacks. The employees would spend it all over the country in a variety of ways. The companies should not cut salaries for the good of the economy.
How to Use Huawei Push Kit on Xamarin.Android
Back in the 1960's, many people argued that it was OK to pay a single women a lower salary than a married man for the same job - because the man was the breadwinner for his whole family.

These days most people believe in "equal pay for work of equal value". But only in relation to gender equality - they don't apply the same principle to remote work.
You get your pay bumped if you have to move to SF to be in the office, because people would balk otherwise and they’d have no labor. Good luck trying to get your remote boss to give you a raise if you voluntarily move to NYC though, yet they’ll happily ratchet down your pay if you move to Iowa.

yeah that's the kind of reasoning that makes me feel better about it-- it's not really clear what kind of shock i would really be expecting to happen in the course of ordinary civilization that would cause this sort of run on life support / life-essential stuff that would also not itself be a bigger cause for concern than the system imploding (e.g. a proletariat uprising or world war would do the trick, but would be a bigger deal than the resultant economic shock alone)
Yes but that's part of the equilibrium I suppose.

Places where current wages are low are going to see wage increases (because of higher demand / lower supply), which in turn will lead to an increase in costs of living.

Places where current wages are very high are going to see downward pressure on wages (because of lower demand / higher supply), which in turn will eventually lead to a lowering of costs of living.

Obviously that's valid in the "fullness of time". How long it can actually take for this new equilibrium to be fully realized is anyone's guess.
Of course, because remote work is absolutely different from work on premise, and the supply/demand profile is obviously different too, both unlike gender.

I think in your example, whichever use of silence is addressed to a specific audience.

For the former, the idea (I think) is that if you don't consent to something, speak up to make a difference.

In the latter, it's more that one should not assume consent on the part of another, presumably in the context of a sexual partner.

Vowel lengthening matters in Korean technically but is more often context-sensitive than length sensitive like it regularly is in Japanese for reasons I don’t know. 눈 can mean snow or eye in Korean depending upon how long you extend the vowel as recently as 1970, for example, but many Koreans (especially younger Koreans) have less sensitivity and don’t use it. When I learned Japanese there were more words where it was easier to confuse them and thus require a distinction, probably preserving length.

Overall Korean historically has had a tendency toward reducing tones and sounds (it used to have f and z sounds like in Chinese, for example). It continues to eliminate vowels where a lot of Koreans are not pronouncing the sound 최 fully and eliminating lip rounding to make it simply 체.
Sure. But they aren't saying biological sex doesn't exist. They are saying there is sex and gender and that these two things can be different. Specifically sex is biological, while gender is a social and physiological construct. What is explicitly NOT being said is that biological sex is non-existent. And they are saying that a person's gender may be female while their biological sex can be male (or ambiguous), and that these people should still be considered women. That's very different from saying biological sex doesn't exist.
> You're not understanding the demand side.

I think I am understanding it, but you are merely repeating your points without addressing the economics that I am pointing out.

> Indeed there is. It shows that the value gained by the employer is at least that of $200k+.

Yes and so the value you generate for the employee puts an upper bar on what salary you can command, not a lower bar, which is what you seem to be implying.

> Not only does a an employee's location not change the employers' demand, the moving also does not change the supply available to employer.

It increases the supply available, because today, given the investments Google has made in setting up offices for ~30000 employees in the bay area, they have to fill that demand using employees located in the bay area. They don't have to do that if they can hire from anywhere, so the supply increases.

> Moving or not, the employer could always find a new employee abroad if supply was indeed plentiful.

And they do! Google has employees around the world, and surprise, they do not get paid as much as they would have gotten paid in the Bay Area. Why is a Google engineer in Bengaluru who is hired by the same hiring process paid 1/3rd of what they'd get paid in MTV? And to preempt the usual HN racism against the quality of Indian engineer, the same Google engineer would be paid the MTV salary if they moved to MTV. This is not a hypothetical, this is literally what happens to the countless Google engineers who transfer from BLR to MTV.

Based on your logic, why is that engineer NOT paid the MTV salary today in BLR?

————

I mean I am not even making a far-fetched claim. Bay area salaries are the highest in the world. They have to move down towards the average if some other salaries are going to rise because the engineer who lives in Randomville Alabama didn't have a Google office he could commute to and hence wasn't in the supply pool, but now is, can now compete for the Google job.
Just curious, since it's been a while since I last used bluetooth on Linux: does BlueZ support AVDTP 1.3 delay reporting? If so, is it integrated into pulseaudio and the media stack?

Oh ha ha ha, wait until you find out about Massachusetts Proposition 2.5 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proposition_2%C2%BD
I would counter-argue on three fronts:

1. A lack of variation, even skin deep, is even less interesting than only skin-deep variation. That is often the norm in large "open world" environments.

2. Much of what we find most interesting about the world is, in fact, skin deep. Take humans for example; all fit the same mold, but the range of human variation is endlessly fascinating to artists and audiences alike. Similarly, the layout of the Prati region of Rome and the Marina/Cow Hollow district of San Francisco is not wildly different. However, both are distinct, worthy of visiting, and unlikely to be confused with each other.

3. Current methods of procedural generation, without AI/ML, already result in fairly interesting maps. Could "true" AI do better? Perhaps, but I'm not sure that the delta is so great that the results would be noticeably better than a well constructed procedural algorithm (play "Tea for God" if you have a VR HMD and a lot of space). I could be wrong though - the gold standard remains hand-placed, human-built worlds filled with little surprises. If an AI approach resulted in a level design competing with the best of bespoke worlds, particularly at a lower development cost, then I'm all for it.
