Lol, is this a group of people trying to write software, or a group of people having a dissing contest?
Very negative. Crazy conspiracies, dangerous ideas. Facebook puts my health at risk by promoting this, but try conversing with someone who believes all that
We are also moving away from Travis for openfaas, k3sup, arkade and inlets. That's about 50 repos and it's unfortunately taking the community away from delivering actual value.
perhaps you should watch the video and read the article. It literally states several times it has nothing to do with the advancement in the manufacturing of the type of diamonds people wear as jewelry, but, rather the type used in industry for cutting.
Doesn't it support RLE compression?
If you have such niche needs I'd say you're better off with a self-managed Jenkins CI. afaik they support whatever you make available yourself.
I don't think the Linux ecosystem is prepared for Cairo to die.

The springs are compressed as the wheel rolls forward. this means added rolling resistance

Those springs are then decompressed either into another spring inside the drum, or back into the wheel again.

if its option 1 where the springs we can see are decompressed into a central energy store, it might have some application for allow easy starting (ie you press a button and the wheel lets out all its stored energy and spins. taking you from 0-10mph)

If its option 2, then you are just making heat. the springs are compressing at the expense of forward momentum. when you roll forward not only do you have to overcome friction, but also compress a spring at the same time.

If you have another spring on the other side decompressing at the same time, then you get _some_ energy back, minus heat, losses in compressing the spring in the first place, and any other mechanical losses.

In short, its a recipe for a boat load of extra friction/rolling resistance. Which will slow you down.
Ceph is a distributed storage system whereas ZFS is not so you can't really compare the two by the capacity people run them at.
While planning my ZFS setup back then, I had good fun with this ZFS capacity calculator. The numbers turned out to be a little different but I still think it's worth a try.

https://wintelguy.com/zfs-calc.pl
One pro of ZFS over RAID1 is that ZFS is file based and not volume based, so in case of recreating mirror disks (or general resilvering) you only copy data, not the whole volume.
Rust is more advanced, but there is more to language design than technical cleverness.

Swift is miles ahead of Rust in terms of language usability and ergonomics.
I feel like I keep seeing these as science fair wins and innovation award wins, but where are they in real life? Are they making it to (the biomedical equivalent of) prod?
In hindsight, I wouldn't be OK with passive income from websites, because Google controls your business.

I quit making very little. Now I make over $2000 in passive income, but I wouldn't do it the same way.

An algorithmic change means you lose your livelihood (or income). It's a single point of failure that you can't rely on.

Rather some customers with lots of capital. That's more secure.
There is some research into how much energy is lost to suspension style losses, and it's on the order of 100W (was 300) when riding at 20mph/30kph over rumble strips. (https://www.renehersecycles.com/myth-17-bigger-wheels-roll-f...). This can be changed pretty dramatically with good tires and proper inflation.

On more reasonable road surfaces, it's less than 1/10th of that number. (but good tires make ooooh so much of a difference. I don't notice bad chipseal. My clubmates -- not so much)

(edit sorry -- rereading the article, I misread the graph. 300W on the rumble strips ~200 on the smooth pavement beside them)

Why bother building an AI when you can just hire a college student to write it instead? The student will likely work out cheaper and do a better job.
Sure, there are devs over 40 --- there are always exceptions to every rule.

20 years ago, there were just as many young devs as there are today. I know because I was there. I also know that 20 years ago, there weren't very many (comparatively speaking) over the age of 40 --- just like today.

Age discrimination in tech fields is not even debateable.
I see the donut tutorials that served as a foundation for many engineering students invested in CAD got competition.

Amazing how powerful Blender has become.
Complacency?

There was no competition for Intel in the x86 market. They attempted to enter mobile which was a huge and growing market and they failed.

This stagnation may have fuelled development elsewhere (RISC-V?) and now that AMD is "back in the game" and ARM is making its way into server hardware and "desktop", there's real competition again.
Personally i couldn't stand it, because it felt like telling a straightforward story out of order was a trick to make that story seem more interesting than it really was. But i encourage everyone to read it and form their own opinion!
I'm not a mac user so I don't own one. Currently I cross compile Mac (and Windows) build on a linux machine and from time to time test those builds in a VM (not sure about the legality).

I don't think this will be possible with ARM build - cross compilation probably won't be supported for ARM, I can't run ARM VM on my x86 dev machine, there's the new requirement for mandatory notarization (possible only on mac) ... maybe more but that's enough anyway.
There's a lot of stuff in competition that's not legit.
I believe the z in zfs is for zettabyte
This compares a 2020 M1 13" Macbook Pro with a 2017 13" Intel Macbook Pro. The 2020 machine is faster and that is great, but its also 3 years newer.

Is this more or less than the expected improvement in benchmarks if this were an Ice Lake or Ryzen 4000 CPU in an equivalent form factor? Are there similar benchmarks comparing e.g. a 2020 Dell XPS 13 to an M1 Macbook Pro?
Don't the various clients even out the usage?

Say what you want about Zoom, but performance-wise their app is absolutely amazing compared to Teams. I’m sure that the fact they choose to develop native apps instead of Electron crap has a lot to do with their success.
I consider Feyerabend's Against Method to be one of the most important books I've ever read. The article primarily addresses beauty as an important feature of science (and it probably is, as Tupolev said, "an ugly plane won't fly") but one can go much farther.

Not only is beauty valid in science, anything that advances science is. Epistemological anarchy is what we should strive for, because everything else inhibits science. In a sense the irony is directly visible in the modern scientific attitude. Empirical data and experimentation are supposed to reign supreme, the only thing that is verboten is experimentation with the scientific doctrine itself, which is supposed to be taken almost on faith, full of complex rituals that everyone needs to abide by.

The mainstream story about Galileo often implies that it was the sinister church at odds with the enlightened scientist. But the reality is much different. It wasn't just the church, but actually also establishment science at the time that was very unconvinced. Galileo's heliocentric worldview could not account for his own empirical observations. (Diffraction was not yet known, so he estimated that observed stars were closer by a factor that was off by a thousand, prompting everyone else to ask why, if his theories are true, observed stars don't change drastically in size if the earth indeed moves around the sun. He didn't really help his case by essentially writing what you could today call trollish treatises in which he was just mocking everyone for their criticism.

But as it turns out in the end he was right, despite what (even relatively sound) science had to say. It shows that science is fundamentally uneven, that ignoring existing 'truths' for the purpose of radical shifts, even for dumb reasons, might advance science.
Not directly involved, but repeating what I've heard from others here: Intel apparently got taken over by MBA-types who didn't understand what it takes to generate long-term engineering value (a bit like Boeing?). It also refused to pay competitive salaries even when it was rolling in cash, making it easy for competitors to poach its talent.
If M1 is indeed this good at most tasks, it would be amazing if Apple were to release server grade Apple Silicon CPUs....

Imagine if we were able to run Linux kernel on such CPUs that didn't care about putting in the low power cores or GPU cores and optimised even more for performance. One can only dream so wild.

Some HPC shops would build racks and racks of those.
People watch movies twice? TIL
That was a market without competition. Without anything lighting a fire under Intel they had no reason to improve the chips further and kept making tiniest of iterative improvements year after year.

The market cap of Tether affects tether, not bitcoin. Only when value flows from tether to bitcoin is when the former affects the latter (and this flow would make tether actually decrease its market cap, not increase it).

(NB: I'm not defending Tether, IMO there are way better stablecoins, like DAI, but I disagree about this bullrun being caused by it.)
There’s lots of evidence of trade with African and MiddleEastern merchants in Viking-age Scandinavia; it’s totally plausible that some of these merchants ended up there
> Now, do I think that the developers set out to create a sanitized defense of colonialism (much less an apologia for Nazi race ideology)? Of course not. But they ended up doing it anyway.

I agree with the article's main points, but I think the author gives the game's creators too much credit here. You could tell from the first trailer that this game was going to engage in historical revisionism of the "the Vikings were really noble heroes" type. This isn't oversight or subtext, it's a conscious and deliberate choice.

The people who made this game weren't stupid or ignorant. If they chose to erase the reality of Viking slavery and violence against defenceless civilians, it wasn't an accident. They may (or may not) have intended to defend colonialism in general, but this game is an entirely intentional attempt to defend _Viking_ colonialism specifically. And they will have been perfectly aware that this played into neo-Nazi tropes.
Essentially after the great recession graduates starting flocking to traditional 'secure' careers. For Arts students there weren't many options, so a ton of English, History etc grads moved into law as it was seen as a secure career. This lead to an over supply which skewed salaries into a heavy bimodal distribution. The top lawyers still get the big bucks but for the average lawyer it's not particularly great anymore. In the UK I here £30-35k bandied about outside of London. Not a bad wage by any means but considering the hours and education required it's no longer the secure path to a middle class lifestyle that it was.
No, it’s just random.
For what it's worth, not all partners demand diamonds! We deemed a _very_ modest ring and paying off more student debt as the more reasonable option.
I think it just comes down to economics. For the cost of a developer day-rate you can buy extremely powerful hardware. So which resource do you want to conserve - your developer time or your hardware resources?

Especially the fact that the “hardware resources” isn’t even your cost it’s your customers cost.
If you're spending more than you're making, then you're almost certainly projecting LTV.

The big, falsifiable assumption here is that your acquisition sources will keep sending you users of the same quality. Because of the way that ML systems work, this tends to not be true, and if you are using long windows it will both take you a long time to realise this, and cost you a bunch of money.

This is normally how companies go bust/stop growing as a result of LTV models.
Maybe but I've reached out to open source maintainers to offer them contracting work focused on their library and they have pretty much unanimously replied that they are too busy. And we were willing to pay above market rates to work on a product that has a significant global user base. There's definitely culture, process & funding problems around open source but for the most part being an open source maintainer seems like it's very good for your career.

I suspect being an open source project maintainer is a self selecting grind.
OpenSolaris is dead, isn't it? Presumably you started when it was released/still alive, but hasn't it not had any security updates for years? Why not OpenIndiana/Other IllumOS variant?
The donut tutorial didn't capture me for some reason.

Grant Abbitt has a nice short tutorial on YouTube, but I like this submitted one the best, because the scene is so beautiful, the teacher compresses an insane amount of material into those few videos, and it's very very accessible to a 3D newbie like me.

Also it shows quite advanced things like cloth simulation, physics simulation (to let the apples fall into the bowl in a naturally-looking way).
Each particular video game gets old and boring really quick. You need a constant supply of new games to stay "addicted" your entire life, which is exactly the opposite of how an addiction for a physical substance works. You never stop taking drugs unless you somehow can taper off the dosage. This is one of the reasons why switching from smoking to vaping and quitting vaping is easier than quitting smoking. You have control over your dosage and a lot of unclean crap is taken out.

Edit:

Not getting access to clean drugs is one of the biggest reasons why addicts suffer from health problems and have trouble reducing their dosage. Small portions of harder drugs and random substances that are optically identical are mixed into drugs and strengthen the addiction beyond what the primary ingredient can do.

Until now, yes. But the Linux version is already under testing and will be released within this month. Welcome to use it.
So, I read correctly, these are microbenchmarks, ran 5 times each (it's not specified)? Also anyone notice the extreme performance difference for non-CPU-bound things (like: DNS-lookup).

No. Not when pushing down on the pedals. Your natural weight would be all that would be needed to load the spring. At least that’s my understanding.
What are the benefits of sedation dentistry?
Sedation is a technique which is used in a lot of fields. It includes the medical industry and dental industry as well. Many serious operations and dental cleaning, dental treatments, oral treatments are performed through sedation. After sedation a patient is unconscious and do not feel any pain or fear regarding the injections and knifes. Only the professionals should perform sedation. https://stoneybrook.dental/sedation-and-anesthesia/

I wonder if there's a price Intel, and AMD, is forced to pay, in terms of dealing with 40 years of x86 legacy, which limits performance in some way.
Typescript already stops bugs right when I'm typing, so it helps before compile or run time.

Also, reliable auto completion is very helpful not just for the method names but for properties etc.
I really like Swift syntax. Declarations basically are the same in Dart's. But I couldn't find a Dart equivalence for the following bit of Swift:

if let sample = cachedSample, searchResult.isRecent {
sampleViewModel.mode = .success(sample)
} else {
sampleViewModel.getSample(number: sampleNumber)
}

Do they have plans for that as well?
Like my fellow commenter, I also do have a few drives with over 50k head hours on them that still work fine, but I also had probably more than half a dozen drives fail on me or break (not including Sandforce SSDs, that'd be unfair), including one that had all of my early projects on it. Really wish I had a backup of that.

Now I have a backup of everything and whenever I have to think about how much storage I need for something I always take that number and multiply it by three -- if it's only stored once or twice, it really can't be more important than /tmp.
Also, Vim Vixen for Firefox.
Well, if you remember the horrible port explosion in Tianjin, it seems not unlikely, China is a major exporter to Europe. The west probably has better site safety rules and hazmat regulations in place, though.
because most companies do not recognize roblox as a platform, they recognize it as a game. nobody realizes that the development of games on it is on a similar level to web development, it's like explaining social media to congressmen.

it's not them getting special treatment purposefully. it's been on the iOS app store since 2012.

apple's policy here is a bad one. if it were fully remove, true web browser diversity could come to iOS, and roblox could finally do JIT compilation of Lua, among so many other possibilities.

So you send your urine test results to the "cloud". Now the Google engineers will know whether you are going to die even before your doctor does. That's just great.
oh I didn't realize I sounded aggressive, sorry if it came off that way, cheers!

I'd like to point out that if you agree that typescript prevents stuff that may lead to bugs, without getting into the semantics of what a bug is, you may agree that it's useful.
Sure, but when would the spring unload? You need to lift your body up do be able to load it again.
I agree, it would be nice if they just explained where the energy comes from and how it flows to drive this, imho the most interesting question. But I guess "a mystery" draws a bigger public. For me it just means frustration after watching the movie.
VirtualBox is an acquired product. Originally developed by the German company Innotek, who were bought by Sun, and in turn bought by Oracle. It is useful enough to Oracle for them to keep it alive, but I'm not sure if Oracle would have ever started a project like VirtualBox themselves.

The internals of VirtualBox are very x86-specific. It was not written with the idea of supporting non-x86 CPU architectures. I think trying to add ARM support would be a lot of work and redesign. VirtualBox used to support software-based virtualisation, which has something in common with CPU emulation – it is kind of emulating x86 on x86, and even uses some of QEMU's code for dynamic recompilation. But, that software-based virtualisation was only ever 32bit, it exploited obscure features of the x86 architecture (execution in ring 1), and in the latest release of VirtualBox has been removed entirely.

(I worked for Oracle for almost ten years. Never at the level at which decisions like this were made. But still, I feel like I do have some feel for what kinds of decisions Oracle's leadership are likely to make. They could always surprise me, though.)
In the US, the FDA usually has to approve medical devices like this. 23 and Me was paused while they talked to the FDA.

> > Inspired by historical events and characters, this work of fiction was designed, developed, and produced by a multicultural team of various beliefs, sexual orientations and gender identities.

Ah, I think that's a misunderstanding of why the statement is there. It's not to claim that the game is therefore produced in a careful way. Certainly not an accurate way! It's just saying you shouldn't take offense at any details in it (accurate or not). Like, "we probably had someone with the same ethnicity/religion/gender as you and they were fine with it". It's fall out from the original being set in Palestine, which they called "The Kingdom" in an attempt to bypass offense.
I fully agree with your example. I have disabled the return rule, and I am enforcing that we add an explicit return in our codebase.

Are you sure? Google has been on a kick for some time now to try and ensure each product area is independently profitable. Up until a few years ago the status quo was that search/content ads made all the money, and every other product burned it in a giant furnace of endless massive losses. Seems they're now trying to get a grip on that as they're realising even search ads can't keep growing revenue forever.

It's entirely possible that YouTube has never been profitable. The costs involved with it are stupendous. It's far more than just bandwidth. Storage and CPU for transcoding, the enormous databases required for Content ID, recommendations, comments and anti-spam, all the private videos you can't even see at all, etc. Then there's software development costs to manage the bandwidth and operations.
Finally they did it. I won't say AMP is a failed project because it can be useful especially for media outlets. But from my experience, I removed AMP from two of my projects and the traffic and (most importantly), the leads we're generating have skyrocketed.
