> To an external observer, new material takes an infinite amount of time to cross the event horizon.

While this is a common pop science statement, it is not correct. The correct statement is that the external observer never sees the material cross the event horizon, because, heuristically, it would take an infinite time for light emitted exactly on the event horizon to get out to the external observer. However, this does not equate to the external observer being able to assign an "infinite time" to the material crossing the horizon. The notion of "time" the external observer would have to use to do that is mathematically undefined on the horizon.

> there is matter that starts out inside the horizon

No, there isn't. When an ordinary object like a star collapses to a black hole, there is no horizon at all to start with, and there is no matter starting out inside any horizon.

> This is consistent with previous reports from Waymo. If one of their vehicles gets in an accident, it's extremely likely that the other (human) driver was at fault.

It looks like in 2018 Arizona had 1.4 crashes per million miles https://azdot.gov/sites/default/files/news/2018-Crash-Facts.... and Waymo released data that they had 2.9 crashes per million miles, over twice as many. 7.7 if they hadn't had human intervention, almost at another order of magnitude than the average driver. That's rough.

I'm really not interested if the other driver is almost always at fault, that's not the number to get down. Their mid-term goal seems to be to drive on public roads with mostly human drivers, so they need to get better results. If they're getting bad results over lots of data, it's not just bad luck: the way they're driving is causing more crashes, even if they're not at fault. Additionally, fault classification is worrisome, since there is the potential for bias.

Various factors might make this remark wrong

- "Crashes per mile" isn't the right metric: injury, fatality, or similar should replace or augment it.

- I compared data from Arizona to data from Waymo's zone, which might be more crashy.

- Crashes in the doc I linked underestimate total crashes, since many go unreported.

- I am not comparing apples-to-apples -- new commercial minivans might be far more crash-prone than the average vehicle.
Super dope!
>It might be interesting to see if the CPUs are pegged (or just one of them).

This is very likely the answer. I see a lot of people who think of the Pi as some kind of workhorse and are trying to use it for things that it simply can't do. The Pi is a great little piece of hardware, but it's not really made for this kind of thing. I'd never think about using a Raspberry Pi if I had to think about "saturating a NIC".

Executives are pretty much what we're talking about with RCV, yes. We may be paying too much attention to those, but that's a bit of a different problem.
You can make the same argument in favor of allowing racial segregation. In fact, those exact arguments were made. We decided that having an open society was worth it.

You also solve the coordination problem by making all businesses accept minority customers. Southern racists couldn’t boycott all businesses. Likewise, left wing activists can’t boycott you for allowing conservative speech if all of your competitors also have to allow it.

> What exactly could the federal government do about it? Force the states to nominate electors by some other process?

Yes, with:

> Toss out the states votes?

...as a fallback.

That's actually how the norm of "have a vote of the people in your state with the actual voting on, or completed by, the standard 'election day', and assign electors by a procedure that exists in law prior to that election" rule works. Its a federal law directing what states should do, and threatening that their electoral votes might be disregarded when the electoral vote count occurs in Congress if they don't comply.
Maybe I’m crazy, but here is something I have been toying with recently. I have defined services in protobuff and generated static typescript definitions for the services and associated messages. I then implemented my own flavor of RPC over a WebSocket connection, where RPC calls are implemented as two calls— a “start” call from client to server, and a “result” call from server to client. It’s interesting and I don’t know if I would go this far down to the “metal” if you will on a team, but for my own project it’s been interesting.
I would really, really appreciate seeing submissions here.
I've had both of the experiences described in this thread, and I believe the key is whether you genuinely want to do the thing at the time.

If you actually want to wake up at the prescribed time, you can do it. If you think you SHOULD wake up at the time, no dice.

If you have 27 minutes of working on something you want to work on before a time limit for something else you want to do, you'll know. If you have a time limit before something you "should" do? no dice.

There is quite a bit of stuff in life that works this way, and it was shocking to me how often I've confused what I "should" want with what I actually want.

I appreciate that they decided to apologize, but I find this statement lackluster at best. A better, more earnest apology would properly address the major concerns Jeremy raised. This touches on just two of the issues and then only superficially. I don't expect them to lay everything bare and pay public penance. I'm not interested in assigning blame. But apologies ring hollow when you don't even discuss what, if anything, you feel you did wrong.

In fact, in committing only to "improve our process to avoid this from happening," it reads as if they take no meaningful responsibility for how they handled informing Jeremy. It feels as if they are sorry Jeremy was stressed out for a week but unapologetic for any of the numerous and hard-to-defend actions they took to cause that stress. They blame the process, as if it required them to inform Jeremy of a complaint they weren't ready and willing to discuss with him, to assure him they'd give him details the following day and then renege on that, to not give him adequate time to understand the accusation and formulate a response. And it is apparent, from the story as both sides tell it, that far from a "crucial miscommunication," the Committee was accurately communicating what they thought. Their error was in prematurely drawing conclusions and not giving Jeremy the benefit of the doubt.

They also don't address the confusion around having two differing codes; the serious and counterproductive issues with Codes of Conduct prescribing acceptable behaviors (instead of proscribing unacceptable ones), especially when such prescriptions are vague; or Jeremy's accusation that the Committee, itself, failed to follow their own Code(s) of Conduct and Enforcement Guide. And while I would not want or expect them to discuss the specifics of Jeremy's case (unless they have his consent to do so), I do think it's necessary to discuss the issue of whether they believe merely making someone uncomfortable through disagreement on relevant topics can (let alone should) be the sole/primary basis for a finding of misconduct, especially when the people made uncomfortable are not even the person that is being disagreed with.

Perhaps they've given Jeremy a more in-depth and sincere apology and explanation in private. But I don't think that suffices. Like Jeremy, I believe that Codes of Conduct can (and often do) play an important role in improving our communities and events. I'm sure the Enforcement Committee would claim to believe this as well. But the numerous mistakes they've made in this matter do serious harm, not just to Jeremy, but to the larger cause. The way to mitigate (if not remedy) those harms is by honestly admitting to mistakes

Coming from several years of writing Obj-C, Swift has certainly been a net benefit for me. Writing it well does require a bit of a shift in one's way of thinking (writing "Obj-C in Swift" is a recipe for pain) but I find that once that hurdle is cleared it's a very productive language to work with.

To be fair, in practice people don't choose gRPC as a protocol and serialization standard so much as they choose preexisting gRPC libraries and code generators. Open source ASN.1 tooling sucks while Google maintains gRPC tooling for a great many languages. This is why gRPC, Thrift, etc have so much more mindshare than ASN.1 in the open source community. The only good open source ASN.1 (DER, PER, etc) code generator for C is asn1c. I believe Java has a couple of good libraries. But other than that ASN.1 tooling is a horrible train wreck of broken or abandoned projects that don't provide adequate ASN.1 tooling. Many people rely on OpenSSL's DER library, but its far too low-level. AFAICT, the same is true for Python and other high-level languages--no open source projects where can you pass an ASN.1 specification to generate (at compile-time or run-time) a full serializer and deserializer.

There are plenty of commercial, proprietary ASN.1 tooling solutions out there. Presumably it's why ASN.1 has persisted as long as it has in industry. Even Fabrice Bellard sells a commercial solution: https://bellard.org/ffasn1/ When you have access to good tooling ASN.1 is arguably superior to the open source alternatives as there aren't as many broken corner cases that can cause interoperability problems.

We only have ourselves to blame. If I ever have time I want to write an ASN.1 spec parser using LPeg that can generate LPeg-based DER parsers. I already have a fairly comprehensive LPeg-based DER parser for PKIX messages, but generating that from an ASN.1 spec is a significant step up in conceptual complexity. While I've written more than my fair share of parsers before, I've never written a proper parser generator, so it's a steeper hill to climb for me even though I already have more ASN.1 experience than most.
Oh, if we're doing one of these threads, my white whale is a mid-80's CGA DOS game where you set off in search of a lost ... uncle? and have to solve puzzles and avoid hazards.

There are two parts I remember very clearly. The first is that you have the choice when you leave the house at the beginning of either bringing along a walking stick or something else, and if you don't choose the stick, there's a part on an outdoor trail where you twist your ankle and lose the game.

The other part I remember is getting shrunk somehow and ending up in a drawer full of drinking straws. You have to work your way through this tube maze, but some of the straws are clear (invisible) and if you wander into one accidentally, the game lets you know it was so narrow that you get stuck in it forever, lose the game, and die.
Nice to see another former fast-food worker working in tech. There’s dozens of us! Dozens! My first job was at Wendy’s earning minimum wage, and during my tech career I’ve helped take 3 tech companies through IPO, with all 3 tickers still ticking away on the NYSE.

I now work outside of tech entirely, because life is is full of endlessly fascinating things to pursue, and unfortunately life is far too short to try them all.

XODOSMetadata is all the images (box art, disc art, screenshots) and manuals associated with a game, so the launcher has all the assets necessary to provide its interface. !DOSMetadata is dosbox configurations and .bat files for running games.

I'm repeating this from below because it needs to be visible. Your statistics and conclusions are wrong. You're selling this fiction that deafness is just an "old persons" thing. You're cherry picking perhaps a statistic about people being totally deaf, but inclusion and accommodation doesn't just start when someone is fully deaf.

According to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (see https://www.nidcd.nih.gov/health/statistics/quick-statistics...)...

Among adults aged 20-69, the overall annual prevalence of hearing loss dropped slightly from 16 percent (28.0 million) in the 1999-2004 period to 14 percent (27.7 million) in the 2011–2012 period.

That’s exactly the whole thesis behind Lobe, back to the conception phase of the project, this was the main principle we tried to infuse in our tool—how can we make the process of building software more humane—and machine learning is one of the tools to achieve that—with Lobe, we wanted to solve the aspect of building the machine learning, as that wasn’t humane either.

The first time I was invited into a Google Meet conference, the captions were on by default. I was impressed at how well it was doing in real time. I've seen closed captions with hired human operators during live events that didn't do as well as what I was seeing. Watching the captions disappear as the backspace was used to make a correction has always made live captions so human to me.

I've written a lot of stuff in pygame on the pi.

The major issue I ran into was no hardware acceleration, so performance came from (software) blits of only the updated part of the screen and similar techniques.

But I found it very fun to program in an environment with integrated graphics and sound and fonts and video and input devices and a event loop with timer ticks.

A lot of linux folks are thinking x vs wayland, but I'll bet if we replaced everything with an integrated environment that had everything necessary to support a game, we would have much better linux user interfaces.

Ireland: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Famine_(Ireland)#Reactio...

1.5 million people emigrated out of a population of around 8 million.

"Of the more than 100,000 Irish that sailed to Canada in 1847, an estimated one out of five died from disease and malnutrition, including over 5,000 at Grosse Isle, Quebec, an island in the Saint Lawrence River used to quarantine ships near Quebec City. Overcrowded, poorly maintained, and badly provisioned vessels known as coffin ships sailed from small, unregulated harbours in the West of Ireland in contravention of British safety requirements, and mortality rates were high."

So some of them travelled thousands of miles while literally starving.

Barb is one of my favorite streamers, it's nice to see him getting a shout out here.

And yes, watching him create Grand Poo World 3 has been a ton of fun, I love those streams.
So its running Gen2 x1, which is good. I was afraid that it might have downshifted to Gen1. Other threads point to your CPU being pegged, and I would tend to agree with that.

What direction are you running the streams in? In general, sending is much more efficient than receiving ("its better to give than to receive"). From your statement that ksoftirqd is pegged, I'm guessing you're receiving.

I'd first see what bandwidth you can send at with iperf when you run the test in reverse so this pi is sending. Then, to eliminate memory bw as a potential bottleneck, you could use sendfile. I don't think iperf ever supported sendfile (but its been years since I've used it). I'd suggest installing netperf on this pi, running netserver on its link partners, and running "netperf -tTCP_SENDFILE -H othermachine" to all 5 peers and see what happens.

Game mechanics is definitely one area that seems to have been lacking.

Aside from that, there's a certain homogeneity to games these days. I think that's attributable to the fact that there are more of them and that to reach a broader audience there has to be some generalization that occurs.
> As you fall into a black hole the event horizon shrinks away below you and from your own POV you never cross it.

No, this is not correct. To the extent that the horizon is something that can be "seen" at all, you see it when you cross it. It doesn't shrink away below you.

> I suppose from the internal perspective, Hawking Radiation manifests as a rain of negative energy.

This is a common heuristic picture, but it is very limited. No real particles fall into the hole as a result of Hawking radiation. An observer already inside the horizon might be able to deduce that Hawking radiation was being emitted from local observations on, say, the tidal forces in his vicinity, but I'm not sure even that would be true: the models I am familiar with for evaporating black holes do not require any causal connection at all between the emission of Hawking radiation and any particular observer inside the horizon (in more technical language, the two remain spacelike separated for the entire trajectory of the observer inside the horizon).
US blacks have one standard deviation lower IQ than US whites and IQ correlates with skin color. This means blacks are expected to be very rare among leading engineers which are typically selected for very high IQ. There are rare outliers though and it would be a shame if they couldn't contribute their brain power. People with lower IQ can still contribute to society, just not at the forefront of engineering.
Teachable Machine is a good way to start! Lobe tries to give you more ways to, not only continuously work on your model by adding more images, changing the number of labels, and even re-label a bunch of your images while training a custom machine learning model in the background—but also, it gives you the ability to analyze your results in real time, and test your model while giving it feedback, so the loop to make your model better is continuously happening. I love that about Lobe.
MySQL was also a lot faster in the early days.
