Changes in Rust can take that much effort. It just depends on the change. We’ve never added a directly comparable feature, so it’s hard to say, though I will say that deciding the names of integer suffixes was so contentious it led to one of the few times my work in open source has made me actually cry in real life.
Chrome uses its own CRL, which pulls from OCSP

No, I definitely meant literal dopamine. Just as people who benefit from many conventional antidepressants are chemically benefiting from increased serotonin (reception/production), people who have ADHD chemically benefit from increased dopamine (reception/production). And while medicating the latter is mostly straightforward (most patients benefit from stimulants which improve dopamine reception, many from improved production as well), particularly adult patients have a variety of coping strategies that relieve symptoms and it’s not a wild leap to infer that when those strategies are successful they’re improving dopamine levels specifically.

I still use the same Goldstar (the company is now LG) microwave oven I bought in the late 1980s. Still works fine. Even the original interior light still works. That is a high bar for reliability.
The clock is where Notification Center lives, so you can’t get rid of it. (Of course that makes sense.)
I think the "microprogramming" bit can/should simply be a multi-cycle, non-pipelined implementation.

Non-pipelined is easier to write and debug, especially if you are used to regular sequential programming; once you have that working then it isn't too hard to turn it into a pipelined implementation.

A basic RISC style design is probably easier than a Z-80 because of the simpler addressing modes and the simpler decode.
Intel didn't have a real competition for a long time. It gets misguided over its own might eventually.

Turf war and cookie leaking is a problem for all big companies, we are all humans, when there is no external threat, we turns to infighting. After all, why not? This will compensate the missing competing pressure that is also necessary as well.

But unable to have a cohesive strategy and call the shot would be Intel's own downfall. Looking back the past decade, they are on a one-way losing path, without any meaningful expansion. Had they have a decisive leadership, it will definitely fare better right now.
Exactly, everyone acts like there is some grand plan/design to all decision making. Everyone is just winging it.
Apple rarely posts their official positions on things.
> If you can’t get rich by playing office politics you might as well enjoy making a good product.

It seems to me this would go the other way. Making a good product (in the sense that it's successful in the market) is what you want a company to do, but that's the thing mostly aligned with the profit incentive.

If profits are taxed heavily then spending resources on making a better product so that more people buy it doesn't make you a lot more money, but spending resources on office politics brings non-monetary personal benefits like status and control, so managers would have a greater relative incentive to do those things. See e.g. Soviet Union.

One of the biggest problems today is actually that the tax code provides incentives for corporations to retain profits within the organization rather than paying them out to shareholders to invest in something else, which results in inefficient corporate bloating.

I was really hoping to avoid going off on this tangent. To be more precise, I was comparing existing-in-perpetuity vs maximizing-investor-returns, and the latter is a more important goal.

I don't think Intel is out of things. Apple's M1 chip on preliminary analysis looks like a huge game changer.... for Apple. They don't have much of a history of licensing their tech (except for a disastrous period of Mac clones waaay back) so I don't see the M1 disrupting the notebook/desktop market.

That leaves AMD. AMD Isn't eating Intel's lunch, they've had a pretty good taste of it and are about to say "no, not just lunch, we're taking all the food".

But there's a window. My not-very-expert opinion is that the window is 2 years. That's how long Intel has, while AMD chips away its market share with new installed systems, to turn things around. If they do it, they'll still have to claw back their previous position, or there will simply be a new stable equilibrium, but I think Intel's dominance in the server & consumer-grade space gives them some breathing room.

In the consumer space, shoppers for high end systems e.g., gaming etc are gone: AMD has them now, and more every day. They have me, that's for sure. But the much much larger consumer market is not in gaming. Intel has the name recognition for the average consumer, and it's their hardware in most consumer grade systems. A quick glance at a dozen consumer grade laptops & desktops from HP & Dell don't show any AMD CPUs in them.

So, Intel still has that level of inertia. If they can limit the bleeding in server & high end systems to a rapid bleed-out instead of a near instant & complete gushing torrent, that inertia may be enough to allow them to claw things back if they're able to execute within the next two years.

I'm no Intel fanboi: They lost me unless/until they turn things around. And from where they are now, I don't rate their chance more than 50/50, which might be generous. But I do think they've still got 2 years until their viability is really threatened. At that point, and I'm sure they've got some skunkworks & low-profile conversations going on about this already, they'll need to look at offloading high performance fabs to TSMC.

Personally, from a global strategy standpoint, I think the US might not want to lose what is really a strategic asset that way though, so we could also see some type of subsidy/bailout/whatever to prop them up.
I've never tried it your way, so maybe I'm missing something here. But thinking in terms of pages seems like a very useful abstraction to me. I can't keep the whole application state in my head at once, so I want to be able to look at a small part of the app and know that I don't need to think about anything else right now. (It maybe won't be "literally just this page", but "this page plus a small number of well defined mechanisms for bringing data in and out of it".) I wouldn't want to give that up, and I don't know how I'd split the state if not by page (or at least something similar, like "groups of closely related pages").

If my model logic is happy to be modified by any page, and if there's a bug in my model logic, then I have no idea where to look.
I had one of these, too inaccurate.

The one I have now, a higher end model with plenty of features and auto-stuff. But it is actually simpler when used as a basic microwave.

It has two big buttons: start and stop. If you press start, it sets the timer for 30 seconds and runs at max power. If you press the button when the microwave is running, it adds 30 seconds.

If you want more precise timing, you can also preset the time using + and - buttons and set the power with the "power" button. Then press start.

It also has a nice safety feature. The microwave will refuse to turn on if you didn't open the door recently. This is to limit the risk of running it empty, which can damage it. From my experience, it is an actually useful feature and not an annoyance.

So, 3 improvements over the "two dials" interface: easier for the most common case (30 second start), more precise timer when you need it, and an added safety feature.
The air is using binned chips where one core has failed (a very common practice that intel also does), so the pro is on a better processor
Fair enough, nothing wrong with that. I was interested if this is a startup or just your way of attracting clients.

Numbers are not silly per se but if i read a cv that tried so hard to quantify things, i‘d be sceptical. example: every developer knows that the number of lines of code can mean a multitude of things good or bad.
Nice. This is a really interesting design.

I tend to like NMOS because of its compactness and simplicity (disadvantage is usually dissipating static power of course.)
This is the most pimped out microwave I know of:

I've heard that there's other benefits, like the fact that memory RMW instructions are essentially a fairly clean way to address physical registers without using any architectural registers.

This law is the reason term-limits and liquid-democracy are such strong tools.

Term limits are best implemented where someone must take on a different job every x years. This doesn't solve the problem of entrenched vampiric bureaucrats entirely, but it at least pushes them towards the chopping block.

Liquid democracy is a type of democracy where people give their voting power for particular issues to whoever they trust most for that topic. Then that person may pass the cumulative votes onto someone they trust and believe in. The point of liquid democracy is to empower people who are actual experts in a subject. Rather than having laymen vote in ways that just empower the most socially adept.

The entire skillset involved with gaining power is so time-consuming, it's incredibly rare for someone to have it and an actual technical skill at the same time.
That will still exclude people who needs more than 10 minutes.
I’m an Apple customer and their interests don’t always line up with mine.
Testing ADHD is based on symptomatic and diagnostic analysis, as well as behavioral testing. Not chemical. Medicinal treatment aids validation of the diagnosis: if stimulants work well and don’t produce the kinds of side effects that people with “normal” brains experience, it can be inferred that the chemical imbalance exists and can be addressed by further treatment.

After my initial diagnosis, my first doctor who treated me said that if I’m being treated appropriately I should be able to sleep while the stimulants are active. Not only could I sleep, when I first started meds, I started taking daytime naps for the first time in my adult life. Even “taking” is an understatement. About an hour after the stimulant (at this time it was ritalin) kicked in, I would zonk so hard that I needed to sleep for anything between 15 minutes and an hour.
I'd imagine that this can be pretty tricky with more complex systems, where the buy-in for even getting off the ground can be pretty high. In software, that's usually not the case, but I can imagine a number other instances where it wouldn't work. This seems like it would show up the most when the problem isn't a greenfield where getting the first 90% working is the hard part, but on the other end, where the difference comes from optimizing the last 10%, which can be really expensive (i.e. figuring out how to profitably and effectively take production from 1000 parts to 10,000 parts can be much more difficult and costly than moving from 100 to 1000).
There is little chance CRISPR will ever be widely used to directly treat disease
Also, there might be other factors.

Here in Poland, I know many people who like spicy food but none that are elderly or ill.

When you are at mercy of other people (like being taken care of -- when you have medical condition or are elderly), you eat what you are given and it usually is also consumed by other people and basically vetoed by any one of them.

Think about this: it is very likely you can associate driving expensive cars with good health and less chance of dying of all causes (well... except maybe car accident). Do expensive cars improve health? Or maybe most people need to work to be able to drive expensive car and this means they also do better in their life, have means to deal with medical issues and to have varied diet that people who do not work or have low paying jobs?

I think in most western world eating spicy food is a choice and if you can make that choice and don't have to contend with what other people give you you are already ahead.
CRLs are how we dealt with OCSP in the browser, and I feel like those must surely have more insanity than the Developer ID certs
What do you propose to do instead? To actively prevent people from creating clients for the protocol?

The Element clients are the closest to what you could consider official clients, being made by the Element company, which does most of the Matrix design and development.
tbh I wonder if this is being triggered by ad-using applications (or, well, their frameworks) on the device, rather than an innate behavior. i.e. if you never install a google-ad-using app, does this occur?

This essay is weakened significantly by one glaring clanger. If this person had equal levels of talent and yet wasn’t from the place they are, they would never make the foolish statement: “exposure to prestige can't make you successful any more than spending time around rich people can make you wealthy”.

Apart from that I think they’ve got some of the causality the wrong way around. Consulting and finance are not buying excellence, they’re buying prestige. If you become excellent, no-one in top tier FTC will care, except maybe the T strand of that. F and C never wanted your excellence, they wanted to use your prestige as a cover for extracting large fees from high net worth individuals and companies respectively. The T strand is interesting, because the value of your prestige here isn’t to the company as a whole, but rather this is just another high net worth company you as an individual can target to extract high fees from using prestige as your weapon.

So if you’re an Ivy league grad, generally your most valuable asset is your prestige, not your skill. You can make an entire career based on being prestigious, so long as you’re careful not to dilute it. And this is why T is grouped with F and C: if you take a career inside top tier FTC, you maintain your prestige, outside it you dilute your prestige, and therefore dilute your most valuable asset.

The point that he’s missing is that Ivy league grads are not the top students. They are the most prestigious students. The top students in terms of excellence are scattered around the country/world and most come from universities you’ve never heard of. And will hopefully succeed by sheer excellence. And companies that hire these students will rise, and companies that hire prestigious students over the excellent students will fall (unless their business model is based on the projection of prestige).

So he doesn’t need to worry about the future. The future is fine. Him and his classmates were never the future, except for the future of extracting large fees from high net worth individuals and companies.

All that said, it’s nothing but great if he’s deciding to start playing the excellence game and stop playing the prestige game. I just think he’ll be surprised at how close to zero he’s located at within that game if he starts playing it in earnest.
Pure speculation from me, but my guess is that the intention is check an app on every launch, and the 5 minutes is there just to lower the chances of DoS from an app getting repeatedly launched for some reason.
Isn’t OCSP an open standard for handling certificate revocations? The standard specifies plaintext, because the standard can’t assume that the client has a way to form an encrypted connection to the revocation list.
Going back to a CRL (certificate revocation list) for code-signing certs makes more sense. And, really, there shouldn't be a huge number of developer certs being revoked.

If that's happening, they need to put more work up front into certifying them in the first place.
Porting Detroit: Become Human from Playstation 4 to PC – Part 3
>> There might be some tiny fraction of people that have a real issue with it, but not anywhere the number of people that feel the need to loudly object to it.

Let's not forget the cadre of objectors who want us to wear a mask to protect their peace of mind, explicitly stating this goal as needful. Or those who vociferously demean anyone who objects for personal reasons (e.g. I tear up and start sneezing if I wear a typical cloth mask or sterile surgical mask for more than a few minutes, and have a sinus headache for several hours subsequent; I'm not the only one in this class).

I recently started using the ESP32 and its IDF sdk, and find it hits all the authors’s desiderata.
So the takeaways are:

* Your Mac periodically sends plain text information about the developer of all apps you open, which in most cases makes it trivial for anyone able to listen to your traffic to figure out what apps you open. Better not use a Mac if you're a journalist working out of an oppressive country.

* Because of this Macs can be sluggish opening random applications.

* A Mac is not a general purpose computing device anymore. It's a device meant for running Apple sanctioned applications, much like a smartphone. Which may be fine, depends on the use case.

Yeah... No Mac for me anytime soon then.
The notion that something as simple as:

AB/CD

Could have multiple "valid" interpretations boggles my mind. It is clear to me at least that AB/CD is the "lazy way" of writing A x B / C x D where the "dots" between A and B have been omitted by the typesetter/author.

I find it somehow disturbing that some would rather interpret this as the "lazy way" of writing (A x B) / (C x D).

I find it even more disturbing that two different modules of Cassio calculators interpret this differently.

The new type signature is

updatePersonalInformation
: PersonalInformationMsg
-> Model
-> (PersonalInformationModel, Cmd PersonalInformationMsg)
-> (Model, Cmd Msg)

I know the point was "this is a bad type signature", but I guess I'm still confused. I can't think what problems someone is trying to solve by writing a function like this.

I can maybe see why it might have both `Model` and `PersonalInformationModel`: the author doesn't want to prefix everything with `model.personalInformation` so they pass both `model` and `model.personalInformation` to it. (Maybe they forget that they can start the function with `let personalInformation = model.personalInformation`?) So I can maybe guess why `PersonalInformationModel` might be there, and if my guess is right I agree it's silly.

But I have no idea what the `Cmd PersonalInformationMsg` is doing, and it makes me think I don't understand the `PersonalInformationModel` either. Where does that input come from, and what does the function do with it?
