Oh, then Intel actually caught-up with Realtek and broke their cards the same way for some time then. :)

Realtek's 8139's first revisions was not able to perform well in most cases (~30mbit max speed, unrealiable). 8169 is much much better. Their new wireless cards also work very well if the driver is good, but they have so many sub-models with very different feature sets, so you need to get the exact chip for your needs.

I use a 8111 (PCIe, Gigabit) at office for desktop to laptop bridge and it works fairly well, no stability or speed problems for now.
You are missing the point. In this hypothetical case I'm not interested in knowing how Kubernetes works or is deployed, I'm only interested in running my tools. It's not laziness, it's pragmatism so I can solve what I'm actually trying to solve.
I don't know. Personally, on my smartphone I never felt to need more than those ~7/8Mbps that 3G already had to offer.
The book came out in 1976 and there has been a lot of discussion and debate around it since then. Wikipedia can update you and is easy to look for links in the reference : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Selfish_Gene

[..] The view of The Selfish Gene is that selection based upon groups and populations is rare compared to selection on individuals. Although supported by Dawkins and by many others, this claim continues to be disputed.[33][34] While naïve versions of group selectionism have been disproved, more sophisticated formulations make accurate predictions in some cases while positing selection at higher levels.[35] Both sides agree that very favourable genes are likely to prosper and replicate if they arise and both sides agree that living in groups can be an advantage to the group members. The conflict arises in part over defining concepts:

"Cultural evolutionary theory, however, has suffered from an overemphasis on the experiences and behaviors of individuals at the expense of acknowledging complex group organization...Many important behaviors related to the success and function of human societies are only properly defined at the level of groups".[34]
In The Social Conquest of Earth (2012), the entomologist E. O. Wilson contends that although the selfish-gene approach was accepted "until 2010 [when] Martin Nowak, Corina Tarnita, and I demonstrated that inclusive fitness theory, often called kin selection theory, is both mathematically and biologically incorrect."[36] Chapter 18 of The Social Conquest of Earth describes the deficiencies of kin selection and outlines group selection, which Wilson argues is a more realistic model of social evolution. He criticises earlier approaches to social evolution, saying: "...unwarranted faith in the central role of kinship in social evolution has led to the reversal of the usual order in which biological research is conducted. The proven best way in evolutionary biology, as in most of science, is to define a problem arising during empirical research, then select or devise the theory that is needed to solve it. Almost all research in inclusive-fitness theory has been the opposite: hypothesize the key roles of kinship and kin selection, then look for evidence to test that hypothesis." According to Wilson: "People must have a tribe...Experiments conducted over many years by social psychologists have revealed how swiftly and decisively people divide into groups, and then discriminate in favor of the one to which they belong." (pp. 57, 59) According to Wilson: "Different parts of the brain have evolved by group selection to create groupishness." (p. 61)[..]

It probably depends quite a bit on environment. I have multiple pets (2 dogs and 5 cats). Not only does dust build up but hair (dander?) Does as well. Things that also affect it might be whether you open windows a lot or use an internal forced air system with a filter.

And of course, how often you end up cleaning the fan and surrounds because of this. I bought a new case for my desktop system about 6 months ago. There has been visible dust buildup around the case inflow fan for a couple months now, and I should probably clean the outside and vacuum out the inside of the case.

The virus dies almost immediately in sunlight. There's also a strong inverse correlation between Vitamin D levels and the severity of the illness. Keeping people indoors, breathing recirculated air with no sun all winter is practically the opposite of what we should be doing.

How Scientists Can Manipulate Individual Atoms with STM Tip Manipulation
I understand this sentiment, but a lot of the original team and the certainly the original founder aren’t even there anymore. Not to mention that a lot of Docker’s business missteps have been self inflicted wounds.

There have been lots of great technologies that haven’t directly made their creators rich, but their good legacy usually/eventually catches up with them.
> ...the companies involved would be going down in a hail of lawsuits and the industry would be scrambling to distance itself.

I think this is essentially what will happen here. One of the problems is that the remediation work to correct the dangerous cladding runs in to billions of pounds and is a bill none of the individual companies involved can afford, so working out exactly who to sue (with everyone denying liability, of course) is kinda tricky.

Cancel culture is when the Twitter Strangler deletes your current account for the 23rd time because you point out the irony of someone working in 'AI ethics' is 100% unethical for trying to extort the company they work for with their own political agenda, regardless of the companies interests or needs. Thankfully this 'ethical AI researcher' will no longer be employed teaching or guiding ethics in AI.
I have to object to TV being vital in any way, shape or form. Come on. Even if you accept that watching TV is somehow essential during this period, which it is not, there are enough archived shows and movies for people to watch for multiple lifetimes.

I love to see that there is still room for fun in our field.
I mean.... you have to eat... if reddit pays you enough to make shitty software... why not. I'm sure they have a gajillion teams doing A/B testing, and using only advertising metrics to decide how it looks and what it does, so it's not really the devs choice of what to do,... they just have to implement it.
Now if anyone had a problem to my problem with Raspberry Pi: that it eats through SD cards like nothing else I have owned.
This problem isn’t going away any time soon. Wishing won’t make it so.

Either get used to it, or get used to having to figure out what someone means when they use a certain term.

I predict that this problem may be solved around the same time we solve the Metric versus Imperial problem.
Well, I have a problem that if I'm not motivated I tend to procrastinate, a lot. Exciting tech enables some kind of "berzerk mode" in me where I work frantically, i.e. like a normal coder. So I tend to choose exciting tech when I can (and I must say that discovering Rust a few years ago gave me a lot of motivation to enjoy programming again).
You'd be surprised as to what professionals use.
It is a pretty high QPS. I work on a chat service that is quite popular (even more popular than Slack) and looked at our QPS to our persistent data stores. It is less than an order of magnitude compared to slack's when you normalize for DAU. Really wonder what they're doing over there.
It is, but the syntax is uglier. Also imagine that you might want to do more than just RUN in a single layer. Maybe COPY some file into the container and then RUN something that uses it.
I’m in the process of learning React to build Webapps and this sounds like something I’d need to know eventually, any resource recommendations?

Does it really make a difference to burn wood than to throw it away? I guess that after decomposition of the wood, all its carbon goes back to the atmosphere. It is just slower than if you burned it.

The biosphere is a closed cycle, we cannot probably use it to store carbon away by means of its own mechanism. Main problem is that we are adding new fossil carbon into it every day.

You can run x86 VMs and Docker containers (slowly) using QEMU.
Personal example. I already have an nVidia Shield. It works out of the box, it's nice, and it already does everything I want. Even if I jailbroke my TV's smartness, then said TV's smartness probably still wouldn't work as well as the Shield. And if the Shield ever messes with me, I can just replace it with a Roku or AppleTV or Chromecast or whatever.

There's just no strong motivation to try to root my TV. I don't like my smart TV but I don't need to, because the smart parts can be "replaced" by any number of external devices. My point is that I suspect many would-be TV hackers are in the same happy situation.
When I last wrote Julia I think it was unclear to me how subtyping worked with type parameters, or writing type specifiers for methods was complicated by them. I think all type constructors are invariant, so you couldn’t have T{X} < T{Y} unless X = Y (but I think you can have a rule like S{X} < T{X}). This makes sense in some cases as covariance or contravariance don’t work for arrays (suppose I want an Animal array but you give me a Dog array, then when I read elements I get Animals as expected but if I were to try to write a Cat there, it would be bad. Java has this rule and will throw a runtime extension in the case described), but it can work for immutable types, though Julia can’t enforce that all subtypes are immutable and type parameters needn’t be types anyway.

Then perhaps all the restauranteurs ought to get together and self-regulate. An industry practicing discipline is not "justifying" any privilege. In my city, many of the businesses forced to closed in the last week due to covid violations were restaurants

Yet to see anything tangible though.
The problem is that javascript is fundamentally flawed by design. It has the __WORST__ and most idiotic type system out there, it has no clue whether it wants to be oop or a functional language and there are outrageous amounts of inconsistencies everywhere you look. The argument for spaghetti C code is valid, but you'd find a lot more js spaghetti than C spaghetti, even if you adjust for the number of C code to match the amount of js code. And there are two reasons for it:

1. The horrid language that is javascript in it's core.

2. Everyone and their dog is a developer these days, and in 99% of all cases js developers without any fundamental understanding of memory management, data structures or algorithms(basically cs 101). For C, you need some fundamental understanding of all of those things for anything beyond "hello world". I'm willing to bet that if you ask 10000 js developers what the heap and stack are and how they work, 9998 of them would have never heard of those terms. And you'd probably have to add a few zeros before you get to someone who can answer that correctly.

As for the extensive usage - well yeah... All you need is a browser to interpret it. In the same way all you need to keep yourself warm in winter is to chop down a tree and set it on fire. That doesn't mean it's a wise idea to go out chopping trees in mass, does it? I lost the countless attempts to make a better language for the web and they were all killed off by the Stalinists at w3 and mozilla. As I said, react is a symptom of that stupidity, not the cause. I've said it before, I'll say it again: a good engineer and a good community are defined by their ability to say "OK, that was a stupid idea, let's go back to the drawing board". The web is in it's worst shape it has ever been. Coldfusion, flash and the ridiculous java applets were heaven compared to what we have now.
People in this thread seem to be justifying it since the film industry reportedly does more testing. I don’t know if I really believe it’s better (actors take flights and likely don’t wear masks for filming, lots of catered food, tests aren’t perfect by any means, etc.), let’s assume that it is.

The point still stands that it’s unfair. If the film industry is able to get a pass to operate by meeting some standard then that should be formalized and extended to these small businesses. Let them decide if it’s viable.

Back room deals and private special exceptions are no way to operate.
Where are these regulations from? As in, which country?

> must have at least 2 stairwells, or emergency stairs

The tower in question did not:

https://www.google.com/search?q=grenfell+tower+floor+plan

So it was designed around a stay-where-you-are fire plan, not an immediate evacuation. And this may have been entirely sensible for the design as built -- concrete floors, concrete walls, and I presume serious doors onto the stairs. Then a fire would not spread.

But when you alter this design, then it doesn't work anymore. You can break any design with sufficient modifications; someone has to enforce that you don't.
Situation which will increase the disparity between the elite and the "dirty plebs". Since poor people have more risky jobs and lack the extra-care elites can afford, we will be the first ones to lose our jobs and go into debt in case we get sick. Unfortunately, inequality will only rise with COVID, especially in countries with poor social welfare models, like the U.S..

Wouldn't that be a problem with what you're running on the pi and how it uses the card? Or is it not a use thing and it's actually frying the cards somehow?
> A lot of people don’t really understand the point of testing, but this behavior is pretty far down on the spectrum.

I did "unit testing" and dependency injection of "mocks" for years before I actually gave them the thought and learning they required. Frequently we treat testing as a barrier to the the already "good enough" code we want to put in production. We miss that the larger production is (feature wise), the worse the tradeoff of marginally adding one feature to potentially taking many/all down...

Reading the sinon.js documentation https://sinonjs.org/releases/v9.2.1/ really helped clarify the roles of various spies,stubs,mocks et al that IMO is required to
Thanks for reading!

>do you think that 10 bucks per loaf of bread is a reasonable price? Even the reviews on their website indicate a lot of people think it's expensive.

Eh, it's sort of like anything else. People spend thousands of dollars on speakers, which is an unreasonable price to me but a reasonable price to the buyer. If you want bread that fits into the keto diet, "reasonable" is just a matter of what it's worth to you.

I also think that for many medium-to-high-income consumers, paying a $7 premium on a food they want is not that significant.

But I've never seen their product in retail stores. I put in the effort on chasing down the money more out of principle than hopes that I'd get any significant money out of the deal.
I wonder if I’m lucky as well, I’ve had I think 1 fan failure in 25 years of computing.

My desktop has 3 80mm fans that are 18 years old and work fine. My switch is 4 years old, my server NUC is 5 years old, my laptop was about that same age, gaming pc has 10 year old fans - all no fan failures!

I wonder if it’s environment dependent; I imagine if you live in a dusty or sandy place it could decrease lifetime...
The bcc-tools ship a Clang/LLVM compiler to compile and build the BPF programs, which takes additional resources and adds a requirement for kernel headers to be installed on the machine.

The libbpf-tools uses a compiler at build time (not run time) to generate a bytecode (portable) program that need no additional dependencies on the server other than the libbpf, and so requires less setup and resources at runtime to install the filter.
Take a look into NixPkgs / NixOS
Is that actually a fact? Are they outbidding everyone else - and potentially could be outbid themselves next time, by someone even richer? Or is someone allocating tests to them regardless of someone else's willingness to pay more? Is auctioning off tests even legal despite price-gouging laws?

Any links?
I can see this being a good thing; but would really like to see both debugging and inbuilt testing (could be done right in the name manager - a box for inputs and expected output)
I expect everything to be fixed as well as it can be but Intel will still be more compatible (although slower).
Might be a market opportunity there for someone to familiarize themselves with all the latest best practices, pitch to the local health department "I'll be accountable for ensuring that restaurants follow all these best practices, will you let them open if they can produce a certificate showing current inspections from me?", then charge restaurants to produce such a certificate (and educate them on the best practices, and ensure that they follow them). Basically it's an outsourced compliance officer. Do the same job as the person on the movie set, follow the same regulations, and the business can open.

I think customers may be part of the problem, though. No business has an incentive to say "You're not following the COVID protocols, I'm going to have to ask you to leave", and businesses that have actually done that get all sorts of abuse from the general public. Movie sets have a lot more leverage over their employees: if they don't follow the rules, they lose their income.
As someone who's been obsessed with silent computing for nearly two decades, just looking at the picture of that fan makes my ears hurt. Tiny fans are invariably whiney. The surface area of the blades is barely larger than that of the motor. Running it at 3V instead of 5V will make it move barely any air.

The Pi 4 can easily be passively cooled, you just need a slightly bigger heat sink. It pains me to see that they went the quick and dirty way with that crappy little fan. That case has a huge surface area. It's what, ~9x7cm? Passive solutions would have been pretty easy, and probably not much more expensive than the $5 fan. And if you really want a fan, at least get a 50mm fan, so you can spin it slowly and still actually move air.
I agree. Trampling is a real concern, but one that would have me running for the exits sooner, not waiting longer.
I've heard the opposite for global warming - burial is excellent for carbon capture (delays carbon release for a long time), burning is awful (releases carbon into the atmosphere instantly).
The point of the fundraiser is to enable me to concentrate almost all my energy on Common Lisp Open Source instead of having to divert energy elsewhere due to financial concerns.

Given the overall context, the direct and substantial benefit to the Common Lisp community of me getting at least minimal funding ought to be obvious.

The most immediate effect of me starting to look for a job would be to significantly reduce the energy I can spend towards Common Lisp Open Source.

Basically, I already have the dream job, but now I just need to get paid at least a bit. Even a small fraction of a "real" salary would be truly life-changing!
That's an editorial article that cites a meta-study and a theoretical model, and tries to draw a conclusion.

Did you read my study? It's based on direct evidence. "There were no positive tests amongst 1,174 close contacts of asymptomatic cases."
Well thats the thing with Emacs, its an extremely good Tool: Editor, browser, file manager, git frontend, notes, calendar, etc.. etc... you call it! but its also extremely old and outdated tool.

I used Emacs for years and one day i realized i had a huge .emacs file and spend lots of time maintaining it, that's when i was conviced it was not the editor for me or I was using it wrong. I moved to sublime, vscode and now im giving vim/neovim a try.

As much as i liked Emacs i dont see myself using it again soon.

Probably a dumb question, but can someone explain why these instructions exist?

In user mode, their values are completely irrelevant. Only the kernel can use the value, but the kernel could just store whatever it gave to lgdt/lidt.

The article mentions win32s running them, so they must serve some purpose. I just wonder which.
The example given in this story is weak at best, the "victim" lived it up for years. She was able to get married, have three kids, go through graduate school and had a nanny, in her words she "had everything". Yes her husband was borrowing them into bankruptcy but to say she was so naive and stupid to not understand what was going on and still be able to attend grad school, either means she is a liar or something even worse about graduate schools.

I think it is far more likely she got everything she could out if this sucker of a guy, threw him under a bus, then took the kids and moved to another state where she can find another victim or get praised for being able to overcome being a hapless single mother with an abusive ex-husband.

What a crock!

I’ve been doing the same with the spammers that ask me if they can send me an SEO report or “generate content for my site” for which I’ll be paid.

I respond, eagerly, in the positive. And not one of them has yet responded.

This setup is getting close to a new x86 mini-ITX setup in price.

The x86 solution would likely give better performance, and at the very least more and faster I/O. And that's with brand new parts, for x86 chances are a lot have or can get some old parts that'll do just fine.

So either you must really want to use the Pi for some reason (GPIO say), or you must really want the small size. Otherwise I don't quite see the point.
