Sure. I currently work in a global team for a fortune 500 company - the only Indian on the team. So I'm well aware of the possibility of remote work. But I have been hired by the local branch, not the headquarters. What I'm unsure of is if it's possible for a foreign company without a local branch to hire me directly. If there's a local branch/HR involved I'm sure to be subject to the compulsory "technical degree" condition for data science work.
Dealing with Sexual Abuse: How to Recover and Seek Justice
Today I learned:

A typical Android phone has hundreds of SQLite databases and does more than 5 gigabytes of database I/O per day....

F2FS is a log-structured filesystem for Linux that has (limited) atomic write capabilities. SQLite is able to use the atomic write capabilities of F2FS to bypass the rollback journal. Anecdotal reports are that an Android phone that is reformatted to use F2FS is noticeably faster.

F2FS make an old tired phone feel like a perky new phone.

Enough with all these orgmode rip offs already. When will the community actually appreciate older ideas and code without shiny marketing and packaging?
Pretty sure you’re right, there’s still a lot more work to be done there, specifically ORM
Yes exactly. The article is hype.

The factual, reality answer is clearing senescent cells.
The article actually does mention it:

> Japan was using their version of the mobile web on advanced flip phones long before the iPhone came along and in even larger numbers than had personal computers.

I think the bigger problem is that this is a seven year old article and the web landscape in Japan has changed significantly since then.
But cost is supreme in the case of the pi.

It's sort of like Elon Musk saying on Electric Vehicles: "We could make the car infinitely desirable, but if someone does not have the money, they won't buy it"

Just pull up https://www.raspberrypi.org and you'll immediately see "someone" is kids.

So I think the fiddling is a given, maybe part of the experience, and usually there's a payoff.

that said I'm not immune to wishful thinking. I think an expensive $150 Pi Pro that makes a profit would be cool. Think mini-itx, pcie, m.2 and memory slots PLUS gpios.
CNCF Cloud Native Security whitepaper [pdf]
In 1980 Symbolics did not sell any machines. The company was not on the market at that time. The first handful of machines reached the market in late 1981 and they literally were the first of its kind. They were also mostly the same systems that MIT developed, sold as LM-2. Almost no GUI based machines of any kind were commercially (!) available at that time. Just about 80 (eighty) of those LM-2 were ever built and sold between 81 and 83. The first actual Symbolics machine reached the market in about 1983, the Symbolics 3600.

SUN did not sell anything in 1980/81. The SUN 1 came to the market in mid/late 1982 as a 68k machine with a SUN memory management unit.

Basically in 1980/1981 there were no UNIX system with a GUI on the market (i.e. commercially available) at all.

> including their rather clunky object system.

Common Lisp's object system was developed many years later. The first spec was published in 88.

Franz LISP used the same object system as Symbolics. It shipped with an object system called Flavors.

Is it really so hard to find instruction length in x86? State machines are associative, and therefore you can build a reduction tree for parallel processing of them. And the state machine itself isn't too bad: it's mostly prefixes, and figuring out if the opcode uses a ModR/M byte (which most do) or has an immediate operand. And while x86 does have a nasty habit of packing multiple instructions into a single opcode (via specific register values in the ModR/M byte), I believe all of them would share the same behavior in the immediate operand effects.

I suspect that in one pipeline stage, you could at least resolve the entire cacheline into the individual instruction boundaries that can be simultaneously issued into uops, if not having the entire instruction decoded into the hardware fields. You wouldn't know if register 7 referred to a general purpose register, or a debug register, or an xmm reg, or whatnot, but you'd probably know that it was a register 7.
I installed arch linux on my personal macbook air (2012) and it's given a new lease of life to the laptop; and I enjoyed it enough to switch from a macbook to a Thinkpad at work as well. (I like more minimal UIs, so I ended up going with dwm/dmenu instead of dealing with Gnome).
> I assume this corresponds to roughly the same number of characters as well?

Japanese usually has less characters, but Japanese character are bigger than average latin character.
I've used Podman, SystemD and Buildah.

It's great to hack around with.
SystemD is particular is very polarizing and I don't want to start a flamewar, but it helped me "get" init systems.

Podman seems to have a better security model than Docker, so we were trying it out at work too.

Redhat is clearly very invested in this.

There was excellent documentation and good tooling around all this.

It hadn't had a stable release for a year at the point when the repo was archived, because it's more-or-less feature-complete and has no major bugs. 90% of the open github issues [1] were enhancement or documentation requests.

No updates is not necessarily a bad thing. Sometimes things work well enough to leave alone.

About every year the chat system (whatever you want to call it) and the voice system (the one that makes phone calls) is going away or being decommissioned or merged or something, and yet in about 8 years of usage I can't tell you what's actually changed.

Some new features, the icon, what it's next to? If they were actually going away I'm not sure how they could communicate that to me in a way I would believe at this point.
That $250 plan is specifically for Registered Investment Advisor websites which are heavily regulated and have special requirements. We haven't officially launched yet and haven't published the final plans, but the basic plan for normal websites will be around $10-15/mo.

You can certainly use HTTrack or just set up WP2Static yourself. https://statically.io/ is very nice too. If the website is managed by only a single person who has technical skills, then I would recommend WP2Static on https://lokl.dev. You can probably deploy for free to Netlify or AWS free tier. But if you need access by multiple people, convenience, or any kind of support, then our service can be very valuable.

I would really like to have a stupidly low cost plan that would just be a no-brainer to use all the time, but unfortunately the way WordPress is designed makes it extraordinarily difficult to bring costs down enough. Each site has to be a separate WordPress instance, and we can't host WordPress instances for free. We are considering having a free deployment option for people that just want to run WordPress locally.

Clocked at 2400MHz, sure. I can't find a single non-sketchy listing for even 3200MHz unbuffered ECC memory, let alone the 3600MHz you want for current Ryzen chips. And those are just the speeds at reasonable prices, ignoring the 4000-5000 range.

At least DDR5 should improve things.

MC simulations, used for things like rendering (path tracing) in the CG/VFX industry.

Look, I'm actually interested in the topic, and this piece actually seems to have some useful information in it, but please please please, stop publishing technical/math-heavy articles on Medium. Putting pictures of equations mid-text combined with occasionally cut-off or accidental multi-line equations kills the readability. I mean, the author already spent the time putting most of the background into a Jupyter notebook, which is much more accessible and readable, even directly in the Github repository [1].

I would love to see Medium adjust their formatting to make it possible for something like Tables of Contents, or faithful rendering of notebooks that don't just rely on Github gists, but until then, I think it does a huge disservice to the actual information that technical/symbolic-math-including authors are trying to convey.

This reasoning is valid when randomization is not pre-configured and is done at the individual level. It doesn't hold when talking about changes that come with browsers etc and deployed at scale.

One of the easier ways to not look unique is use a popular iOS device because Apple pushes updates hard, so OS and browser versions tend to move in sync, they don't maintain that many SKUs (4 right now, and I'm not even sure if the 12 and 12 Pro are different enough for fingerprinting to detect), and their devices are pretty popular.

Various privacy trackers also block fingerprinting code.

If you need a new hobby, uBlock Matrix is the hard way to block most fingerprinting.
I'm using a T490, and with one exception everything has worked perfectly. Things like Thunderbolt connecting to a docking station with multiple monitors just works out of the box.

That's not to say that it's been perfect. The touchpad on this thing isn't great. I've had issues with sporadic jumping of the pointer when touching it with two fingers. I replaced the touchpad which did not have any effect. The funny thing is that the problem has been slowing going away over the months. I have never tested it on Windows, so I wouldn't know if there is a hardware problem.

The reason I was mentioning this is because I wanted to give some credit to Lenovo support. I fully expected them to tell me to test on Windows before replacing the touchpad but they were happy to tell me they supported Linux and me showing the issue in Arch Linux was enough for them to replace it.
Cats breed fast. Sexual maturity is 6-9 months, pregnancy takes 2-3 months, and a mother cat can go into heat a month after giving birth. Litters are mostly 2-6 kittens, and there is no such thing as "cat menopause" - your ancient housecat well past the end of a wild cat's lifespan can still get pregnant.

As long as there's a few breeding pairs out there, they can repopulate quickly. You would have to go to a very deliberate effort to make them extinct. Or accidentally destroy everything they would eat - which, given that they will eat pretty much any animal they can take down, would be a serious global extinction event.
I dont think so, because AAA titles which majority of casual gamers play, pretty much dont deal with MAC.
There are situations where the Pyhton random module can provide easy API for cryptographically unpredictable events.

E.g. you can pick random words for passphrase from wordlist with random.SystemRandom().choice(word_list). SystemRandom is a CSPRNG. It's of course incredibly dangerous that you can accidentally use MT by forgetting to put in the SystemRandom() part. random.choice(word_list) works as well and doesn't fail tests.

It would be really important to make all RNGs cryptographically secure unless explicitly stated that the RNG must be very fast at the cost of predictability, and the naming should reflect that, e.g. insecure_scientific_random.randint() for Monte Carlo simulations etc.

> The biggest thing we're going to regret looking back on the early Cloud era is the foolish notion that you need 100x as many servers to do 100x as much work.

> Between 100 + log(100) and 100 + sqrt(100).

I bet it doesn't even make the top ten. You have so many other problems by the time you're scaling to hundreds and thousands of servers and beyond. A few percent difference in server count? Whatever. That's still almost perfect scaling, and not going to be your bottleneck or your huge cost center.

The components we are installing have chips in them, but we don’t worry about what chip because the manufacturer of the product keeps it working the same way. The modicon quantum Plc uses the pentium 166 chip and was released in 1994 and I can still buy it today from Schneider although they encourage new installations to use a newer product. I am sure I will still be encountering old quantum Plc in the field when I retire, the platform will have a 50 year lifespan.

Even when a line of controllers is end of life the manufacturers provide an upgrade path to their newer product line.

I'm not married to docker either, and love the idea of podman. In my case the blocker for migrating was related to docker-compose.

podman-compose doesn't support as much as I needed for my current deployments - although offhand I cannot recall what was missing.

I'm looking forward to trying things again in a few months, but those corner-cases can be real pains to deal with.
I had a bone infection as a child that took several years to positively diagnose (it ended up being osteomyelitis). In an attempt to help my body fight off the infection, I was prescribed a couple hours a day in a HBO chamber.

HBO can be prescribed for infections of various kinds that are otherwise hard for the body to eliminate without assistance or straight antibiotics. This study aside, breathing pure oxygen for extended periods does wonders for the body's ability to repair itself.

The upside of that time was that bruises and mosquito bites healed practically instantaneously.

The "great migration" of post-slavery African Americans from around 1916-1970.

I would argue that optimizing the server, in the uteri comparison, would translate to having twins or triplets (and so on). With one uteri you'd get more babies with no additional uteri.

I don’t understand the aversion to information density that designers have. In my experience, old school server-rendered sites tended to be jam packed with more information and richer tooling than most of the SPA-type sites you interact with these days.

They might be “ugly” from some bauhaus art school designer’s standard but I’d way rather use an old school but feature rich interface like eBay than the sleek-looking but totally UX deprived site like FB marketplace. I recently liquidated a bunch of my belongings to move, and I can’t deny that it’s probably the best tool to do something like that because of the eye balls, but god damn. The mobile first design, gobs of white pace, the annoying “blurred copy of your picture behind your picture” effect that local news sites seem to love, completely re-created React component replacements for every standard UI element like a select drop down.

It often doesn't even matter to click wrong boxes to a certain degree. Green or red points are usually accepted as traffic lights (often no need to click the whole traffic light) and anything white painted on a street is usually accepted as a crosswalk and so on. Skipping/verifying the second task without even bothering to look at it (i.e. immediately after clicking "next" on the first one) usually works well, too.

> It may sound obvious, but - optimizing your app to fulfill a request in 1/10 the time is like adding 9 servers to a cluster. Optimizing to 1/100 the time (reducing requests from say 1.5 sec to 15ms) is like adding 99 servers.

This cannot be correct. If you optimize 1/10, and then optimize to 1/10 again, that's the same as optimizing to 1/100. Does this "add" 18 servers or 99?

If you optimize to 1/10, then your cluster can handle 10x the load, which is the same effect you would get by simply having 10x the number of servers (assuming your app is perfectly parallelizable).

The article's quote is only correct if the "cluster" starts as just a single machine.
