A better survey would measure sleep, nutrition, and exercise levels of students across many campuses against performance of students.

It would also be a great thing to fund research of since ideally you'd want optimal schools.

RIAA: I have some very bad news for you.

If I can see a video on my monitor and hear the sound, then I can record my screen and the audio and get a video with 99% of the quality of the original.

Maybe you should ban monitors and speakers next? Or eyes and ears? That would be the only way to stop this.
Their continued silence so far doesn't bode well. Likely they don't want to take RIAA head on and will just let youtube-dl drop and move on with their lives. And that's probably what the RIAA counts on.

Until HW decryption is cracked, there may just be more camera-captured content or content recorded from modded display panels. If they want to prevent copying their content, why they are even publishing it? They can keep it for themselves. They either want us to see it or not.

By making it difficult to archive videos I am starting to see more and more low quality screen captures being shared (e.g. on social platforms). A screen capture of a phone camera-recorded video of a phone-recorded TV screen where it is barely possible to understand the spoken words of the actors. That is pretty sad to see in this technologically-advanced world.
The TL;DR as I understood it is that they paused the synchronization with the (60 hz) grid for just a little bit, then reconnected it; running out of sync with the grid caused a sudden backlash, making the generator tear itself apart from the sudden shock.

Ditto, but with slow/unreliable 3G. It's perfectly possible to watch a 4k video with max quality that way, even if one has a poor connection. Otherwise, I'd be stuck at 240p much of the time.

It misses the program Debris (or Visual Debris?). It'd use a search engine such as Google Images to download pictures and blend them with each other. The result was a unique, colorful experience which was unique every time, where you could look into and try to figure out what is included (it had a NSFW filter, and also allowed you to include search words). You could save the result to a lossy format, but you could also edit the canvas to remove pictures it found. IIRC it was made by a NullSoft employee who also worked on other visualization plugins in WinAmp (unfortunately I don't have a link!). I used it in the early '00s, though it was Windows only. I don't remember if I got it to work on Wine.

Nowadays I have Bing Wallpaper on most of my machines. Every day I get a curated, unique wallpaper of the day (the Bing background of the day). Sometimes I like it, sometimes not. No matter which machine I'm on though, the wallpaper is the same for every machine. I'm not a Bing user other than that but I love this Bing feature!

Not only did I profile it, put a lot of time into optimization and learned how to use cloud computing, but I also learned a new language (Julia) and ported the whole application. :)
Presumably you could also do a lot of embedded software work that solves similar problems as controls?
Is there really much value checking multiple solvers if you use the same pre-post which might introduce the same common errors, including user error, into all of them? I know it would be handy from time to time but validating solvers against each other seems like a small thing for an entire pre-post to be built around. It sounds a bit like compiling your software with multiple compilers to make sure it's correct. The bugs aren't usually in the compilers.
Reader mode is what you want, and it is a built-in Firefox feature. You should see an icon on the right of your address bar. On GNU/Linux Ctrl+Alt+R activates it.
uBlock Origin allows you blocking font requests so it uses the fallback. I have it turned on by default and it's only an issue with icon fonts.
This is great! Now I can collect the data to show my spouse I need to upgrade from my Hario! Been noticing a lot of fines at the bottom of the cup lately and a new grinder seems like a better way than getting Kruve sifter to get those fines out.
All the use cases you described are already implemented in today's cars, bus segregation doesn't mean zero communication.

Gateways can allow for certain messages to pass-through, the point is that they preserve the garantee that certain safety-critical messages can only originate from within a specific network. It's basically a crude MITM mitigation.

Here is why the "one physics simulation should cover it all" idea will never work: The word "physics" is just too broad. Is it about particle simulation (classical N-body simulations)? Or is it about fluid simulation (classical CFD = computational fluid dynamics, or classical Navier-stokes)? Is it about a game engine, digital art or just for a fancy GUI? What about the hardware, should we use GPGPUs, distributed computing or so?

Talking about the output, what is it the user is actually interested in? Some direct simulation outcome, such as trajectories or densities, still images, time series or some derived quantities? Is the user capable of programming in some language, is interface scripting even required? Does she actually prefer a CLI?

There are a lot of different industries with different needs. For certain engineering tasks (such as aviation), there are long standing tools which work fine and people are used to. For hobbyists or the gaming industry, the same applies.

Disclaimer: I am a theoretical/computational physicist. Maybe I am too much thinking about simulating heavy ion collisions or black hole mergers, but given the physical problem you want to solve, there are quite different numerical methods applied. This applies for fundamental concepts: Besides the traditional linear algebra/partial differential equation solving, there are statistical approaches and nowadays artificial intelligence for obtaining a solution to a problem in a shorter time. The ways how to model physical reality are as diverse as the physical problems.
Same, but not even primarily a privacy thing (tho that is a very close second)

I want to be able to access the notes. At all times. If I've got battery power, I should have my notes. Even Evernote screws this up sometimes if you're on a slow (not down) network

I've switched to Joplin myself because it just syncs every so often. My notes aren't hidden behind some bloated app that struggles with high latency and as a bonus my central storage is my NAS over WebDAV (and Tailscale to access it everywhere I have internet access)

Indeed there is no widespread documentation on how to play with rsync itself. A long time ago I played with the idea of replicating rproxy (https://rproxy.samba.org/), which was just a cool idea. The results are here (https://rproxy.samba.org/) but are very very basic, it was just a toy. I did have to invent my own protocol, but I did it over HTTP.

GraphQL Editor 3.0 – new release
We've just launched GraphQL Editor 3.0 and this is the biggest release from the beginning of GraphQL Editor. When we started our vision was to provide an alternative way of designing a GraphQL schema, but what we ended up with is a lot more.

It introduces many new features as well as improvements to the interface, all to provide our users with the fastest and easiest way to build & manage your GraphQL schema. You can read more about the new features here - https://blog.graphqleditor.com/graphql-editor-3/
The beauty also is that it's integrated with many other projects. You can open URL in smplayer and it will use youtube-dl to get media URL and play the video in that page. The same for mpv, and probably others.
No, they just need to make a lot of stuff illegal and/or very cumbersome, that's all. And that's definitely possible if enough govts are bribed and lobbied to cooperate with them. They have other corporates already in bed with them. At that point, it becomes a question of going after the few rebels and teaching them a lesson and the rest of the Internet crowd will be left in shock and awe.

Trusted computing 1.0 failed to take off, but you can be sure that it will be reintroduced in future and likely will sneak in under the radar, and trusted computing can very well make all forms of screen recording difficult or impossible except through the analogue hole, and that too can be dealt with in time by IOT devices that will refuse to function unless it can contact ML severs over the Net to "SmartScreen" verify what it is recording... for user security of course.
Nowhere does the article mention anything about sea levels, so maybe don't jump to those conclusions. The land itself can also rise or sink, and that is more likely to be the case when it comes to the history of this region. The villages in the Netherlands (and northern Germany, and Denmark) always were already perilously close to being below sea level to begin with. We're talking about a flat former river delta with extremely wet soil. Remove water from it for agricultural activities through drains and pumps and the land sinks. That is why the villages existed on artificial mounds to protect them from floodwaters (known as a "terp"). So villages like these were more likely to be abandoned due to agricultural activities making the land sink so much that they flooded all the time, which would make the villages themselves not worth living in.

Tangent: The website linked in your profile suggests that you're Dutch like me. If so, honest question: did they not mention this in your high school history classes? I grew up in Friesland and it would be interesting if that turned out to be more like a part of the "regional" than the "national" history curriculum.

FWIW, a nice article covering how the current pandemic affected cabbies[0] also reveals some of the costs they pay out.

Oh! So the emulator i was looking at was yours, it looked damn nice for just this task and i guess i know why now :D

Good choice on using var-arg-templates for passing arguments between env and host, i think moving over all scripting bindings to va-templatized bindings is the only sane option for the future (boy have i spent time fighting binding bugs in my days)
I have the same feeling. They say they don't think about taking it to ourt as ReactOS is too small to pose threat yet. But once they do, I bet it will become another SCO story: years of accusations without any substantial proof.
C# designer Torgersen: Why the programming language is still so popular and
This article starts very interesting but the rest sounds like infomercial for Zing by Azul Systems.

Both issues related to low latency metioned here (JIT and GC) can be solved with very simple and common methods with the JVM provided by Oracle.

We had similar issues in my old company, where we implemented a graph database in Java. It was very slow and somtimes freezed for alomost a minute (512 GB heap).

Here are the strategies we used for solving these issues.

- performance - we built warm up logic in our app, which called the most time sensative parts on startup. It delays the start up process by 10 sec, but after that the application is very fast.

- GC - we pre-alocated big chunks of memory outside of the heap and put there the 'heavy' objects - those which require most effort from the GC. We also optimized the code so that all other allocations are in the stack (escape analysis). This requires some discipline, but eventually we ended up in situation where there was nothing left for the GC to do.

I'm not sure if it's worth paying hunderds tousands $ in license fees for something that can be achieved with good programming practices and discipline, which most companies need anyways.
In Julia I can use things as data oriented design (few cache misses) to further reduce runtime. I'm not sure you get much out of such efforts in Python.
In general I don't think $enterprise hearting open source is a good thing in the long run. Even if there are accidental benefits, the incentives are just not aligned.

I also find Microsoft to be one of the most evil, invasive and user hostile tech company out there despite their recent PR deluge. My opinion is pretty much set in stone at this point but I welcome anyone to cheerlead them if they so wish.
Lol, yeah. I have a bad habit of arguing flawed positions then occasionally even arguing against myself. I need to stop...

We can theoretically understand concepts in the abstract, but sometimes more is needed for us to take them fully on board.

The article mentions the people responsible not grasping the full scale of the problem. Giving them the visceral image of the potential destruction might help them take on board the risk emotionally as well as intellectually.
I would highly recommend dropping the dating sites and spending the time and money looking into touch centric hobbies instead. There are dozens of different styles of dance, Acroyoga or Partner acrobatics is also a great option. Whether you meet a partner or not, having a better relationship with the opposite gender and touch will make your dating options much better. Often you don't find your special somebody until you stop needing to find them, because that's when you can be truly open to what the world has to offer you.
Yeah i see that outlook, my comment was actually mostly about C# (been using it for the past year and these things above are in it as well as all the base being Java-ish)
Awesome! Good luck. I hope you incorporate the feedback and congrats on profitability. Cheers to the people who do things!

I once worked for a business that got a DMCA request for taking down a legitimate site, from a law firm acting on the site owner's behalf. They refused to listen to reason and didn't stop until we got the site owner to call their own lawyers and tell them back off. Luckily, we were outside the jurisdiction of the DMCA so we had the option of simply saying no.

I can't imagine it was the only time such a thing happened, and that alone is an argument for simply ignoring those take-down requests if possible.
I used Tcl by virtue of a software package in the scientific domain I work in called OOMMF which is old but a stalwart and very reliable. I find it an odd language.

But the one thing that I think is very cool, is that it's very very simple to get a minimal Tcl interpreter (partcl) that can be embedded into a C/C++ application. It also still comes bundled in to Python for the Tkinter framework. You can even use it in Jupyter Notebooks now
>The trainings I'm familiar with have the opposite intent

Times have changed, economic incentives have not. Linux, Postgres, et al will survive but have no doubt that Microsoft will try to extinguish them.

EEE is not some discredited strategy from Gates era Microsoft that magically vanished with a few executive changes, it is a fundamental defense mechanism of umbrella enterprises driven largely by a bunch of little decisions by self interested actors at all levels of the hierarchy. Gates' Microsoft helped give it a name with a catchy alliteration, but Nadella's Microsoft will define what that phrase means in the cloud era.
That's a good thing though, right?

Claims of poor Bluetooth audio quality generally fall into the following categories:

* Bad source settings/implementation (i.e. bitrate too low)

* Bad sink implementation/EQ/DAC

* The HSP issue referenced by OP (where you can't have both HQ audio and use the mic)

* FUD by patented codec authors

The reality is that even the basic royalty free Bluetooth SBC codec is perfectly fine, and sounds transparent at high bitrate settings, which decent sources should be using and all sinks are required to support. Transcoding doesn't make much of a difference either. It's a poor codec, but the bitrate is high enough that it doesn't matter. You can ABX test it yourself if you're so inclined, purely in software, with high quality wired audio hardware. I have. You'll see the codec isn't the problem.

So when your Bluetooth device sounds better wired than wireless, or works better with AptX or some other patented nonsense codec - most likely the problem is careless software/firmware (or outright crippling to push patent licenses), not the spec being bad.

(I say this as someone who was gotten into flamewars over the quality of ffmpeg's AAC implementation and found bugs in the Opus reference encoder; I can tell when audio quality drops)

I’m sorry to hear about your experience, but have you considered that this was a reasonable outcome of a cost-benefit analysis?

It’s a time-consuming and costly process to collect, review and pursue CCTV evidence.

If you’re the victim of a relatively minor property crime (e.g. having your phone or laptop stolen) it’s probably not worth the police pursuing it.

If, on the other hand, you are the victim of serious violent crime (murder, attempted murder, rape, assault, etc.), the police most certainly do trawl the area for cameras, request footage, review and identify suspects, issue appeals, etc.
JVM has objects as the basic building block. For WASM it's linear memory(ies), so it's lower level, and was created from the start to support languages like C/C++. .NET indeed looks quite similar, given that it supports C++ compilation, tough I'm not familiar enough with the compilation model to draw comparisons.
.. where did you get all this nonsense from?
>iPhones are boring compared to 8- or 16-bit computers, if what you are interested in is how the thing works. [...] That's not age speaking. They are just two fundamentally different things.

The iPhone was just one example. It doesn't matter whether the new thing is Android, or Raspberry Pi, Arduino, or latest FPGA from Xilinx/Altera. Even though all of those can do much more advanced things than the toy computers I used to play with, none of those spark me with the same excitement. I could pass it off as being too worldly-wise (i.e. disillusionment) to play with Raspberry Pi and Arduino -- or I can just admit that the best explanation for my apathy about new tech is that I'm simply older and lost interest.

With a TI-99 toy computer, playing a primitive Space Invaders game and typing BASIC code like "10 PRINT "HELLO"; 20 GOTO 10" to giggle at the "HELLO" infinitely scrolling up the screen was fun. Today, I can type Javascript by pressing F12 in a web browser and it objectively has more power than TI-BASIC but it's not as fun. That contradiction of power-vs-fun just means I simply older. There are lots of folks out there genuinely having fun exploring what Javascript can do and it would be silly for me to claim that I previously had fun because TI-BASIC was "superior" to Javascript.
The water is refreezing. Article and data says it. I'm guessing there was a translation error somewhere for the title.
> Today, in California the percentage of white babies is ~27%.

No, its much higher, probably 70-75%.

Its just that most sources, despite using source data that gathers race and ethnicity separately, combines them into a single dimension which reports non-Hispanic whites as "white" and Hispanics of any race as Hispanic.
