You seem to have a post factual philosophy. Just because some things are made up in history does not mean the whole field is without rigor, nor does it make it equivalent to the counter factual nonsense coming out of gender studies.

That you can find examples to the contrary does not prove the rule or make everything somehow equal.
His implementation of it can be found in the D programming languages standard library.

You can build a jemalloc in about 10 lines roughly.
That's often the case, but on Twitter it's sometimes also just inactive followers. Not uncommon to have 10+ year old accounts now which might've been big some time, but with 95% of those followers being inactive now.

Too bad Twitter didn't do the purge of inactive accounts, would've been interesting.

Nit: The plots are hard to follow to the point of being useless. I need to skip the entire group (4 bars) to compare against each other. Bar charts work best when the bars you want to compare are adjacent, not organized by groups. Anyways, the table is far more useful here.
> People like to pretend that learning shell commands is somehow better because it's more portable,

No, it's better because if you aren't doing exactly the workflow an IDE or GUI tool designer has envisioned, it is almost invariably much easier to do it in shell (and then make it a script and then bind it to a command in your IDE or GUI tool, if they support that) than to beat the non-shell tool into, first, doing what you want, and then making it easily repeatable.

It's also more portable, which, contrary to your description, is very useful for most people, because even if there are some dev-only tasks that “I can only do it in the IDE” is fine for, for many things you may also want to do in a CI pipeline, on a deployment box, or other places where your IDE isn't running. Shell scripts generally work there.

Yeah… I'm going to go with UBS on this:

"Battery costs have already fallen and are expected to drop further. We assume a 35% fall in battery pack prices by 2025, resulting in what started off as a luxury car market trend becoming more mainstream. Moreover, as demand for graphite, lithium, cobalt, manganese and copper rise, auto and battery industries will be forced to look for alternative materials making investments in certain commodities or commodity-related sectors one of the most volatile parts of our smart mobility theme."

They are already assuming prices drop 35% in another 4-5 years for battery packs and still are saying auto and battery companies will be forced to look elsewhere…

There's an interesting parallel to the Luddites here, who smashed looms. The Luddites were not, as is commonly misunderstood, anti technology.

They were a well trained workforce who disagreed with the idea that improvements in technology should reduce wages. When the new looms came in, factories could produce the same goods with unskilled labor, and the owners could pocket the difference in wages.

The Luddites believed that the factory owners should still split profits with the workers and pay a skilled wage while getting the increased output the new looms could provide.
I suppose it makes sense a domestic company would fill the power vacuum that followed Google's and IBM's departures from the Chinese market after years of collaboration on state censorship, facial recognition, and other anti-privacy tech[1].

Yeah, but it's not some axiom that globalization uplifts the human rights of poorest of the world. As long as there's a commercial benefit to suppressing human rights, it will be happening somewhere. The only way out of it is global interest of citizens (and hence political motivation, and commercial interest) to uplift human rights.

short answer, is no

this is not a constituative expression and the cell expressing the foriegn protien is often destroyed later in the process but not always as the vaccine mRNA is edited out of the cytoplasm not replaced by genetic expression and the novel protien goes into turnover mode.
I suppose it should be noted rights are limited to protections expressly provided by government. For example there is a right against improper search and seizure but there is no right to privacy. Therefore violations are limited to harms of conduct expressed by letter of law opposed to implied transgressions, inconveniences, or embarrassment.

> assuming that host cells start expressing the spike protein, and the immune system learns to react to it,

Firstly they only express it as long as the mRNA remains intact. mRNA are degraded naturally so there is a finite time window as the mRNA is not reverse transcribed into DNA and reintegrated into the genome.

> what are the chances that it will also learn to react to other proteins expressed by those cells,

T (and B cells? I can't remember) cells undergo a selection process in the thymus that select against cells with receptors that bind to self proteins, that is proteins made normally by the body. Sometimes this fails and you get autoimmune disorders. Chances are very slim and no more than any other antiviral vaccine.
If you can't play the new VR version of Myst, why not play the Apple II demake
My understanding is that normal viral infections cause proteins to be expressed by cells in the same way — in fact, uninfected cells also continually display a "status report" of protein fragments. Your immune system monitors this to detect cells that have gone haywire, whether by mutation or infection.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MHC_class_I#Effect_of_viruses

I don't honestly understand how the immune system decides which protein fragments are okay to develop a response to, but the point is that that is already part of the normal immune response pathway that learns new antigens every day; after the protein fragment shows up on the cell surface, the rest of the process is similar to the response to an attenuated-virus vaccine or a natural infection.

We can, if we choose (see, “naturism”), but I don't see what that has to do with pictures (moving or not) on the internet.
There's this company running ads selling a retro pi for $300 loaded with pirated software. Tried to find some way of reporting it to Facebook – unless I'm a representative of an aggrieved corporation they don't care.
Your statement is ambiguous. I assume you mean the exploitation of these workers (by continuing to reduce their wages) is not a good look?
Property Damage is not violence, it is vandalism. Using the wrong word sends a totally different and wrong message, the things being damaged are just stuff. Stuff probably worth less than the amount of salary they are owed.

The bias in this story towards equating property damage and physical violence is most terrifying in that the authors seem to legitimately not even notice it.
Right. Totally.
New UK police speed gun can read license plates from half a mile away at night
I'm running two LG 34" ultra wides off it and I've not noticed anything to aggravate me, but maybe I'm just not that susceptible, I'm generally pretty forgiving having spent hundreds of hours doing VR dev work. I think my brain has become somewhat immune to visual lag effects. The one issue I have had is that one of the monitors on USB-C (HDMI connected monitor has always been fine) seems have some sort of bug waking up sometimes, that I can only solve by powering it off and back on. Irritating. Not sure if it's the monitor or the Mac. I'd say the Mac, as I never had this issue with the MBP.

Also, the colour profile/difference between two identical monitors, one connected on HDMI, one on USB-C was startling. No idea why... I had to spend 20 minutes with Apples advanced calibration tool get them to match up. Even selecting the same colour profiles on both monitors gave a staggering difference in colour representation which I found very odd.
I see that you note in your profile that you work at Red Hat. May I ask in which department of Red Hat? The reason I ask that is, are you part of the decision making team which made this decision? If not, then no matter how good you think the intentions of Red Hat management here are, I can assure you that they haven't been made for the betterment of the CentOS community. If this was anything to do with the betterment of the community then this wouldn't have been a sudden announcement but instead would have been a long drawn discussion involving the community. I don't say this just for the sake of it, but I have closely followed how they killed the JBoss application server community and the project, as I note in my other comment[1] and this whole CentOS announcement is exactly on similar lines. I have known people in the application server team, who initially tried to justify the whole process, just like you are doing it now for this CentOS "migration", but even they have now realized there wasn't any truth to it.

It's not a co-incidence or an accident that the messaging around the community side of this CentOS announcement is confusing and unclear (they are letting the community members try and decipher what this all means for the CentOS project) instead it is intentional.

The bottomline, just like in that other case, is that the sales team at Red Hat cannot justify the hundreds of thousands of dollars they ask for supporting RHEL, when customers (or prospective customers) note that they can get the same quality from CentOS (stable release, regular bug fixes, community help).

Great article and some really interesting comments in this thread.

the protien, and the mRNA would be instantly degraded outside the cell.

the liposomal capsule holding the mRNA has been engineered to deliver the mRNA to the cell and fuse with it delivering the mRNA

confoundingly the mRNA is fragile thus the ultracold dryice freezer required for holding.

the protien is stable on its own, but will be destroyed by exocytic proteases unless shielded by insertion into a membrane

A couple hundred years ago, this structure barely existed, and would not come about without humans.

About 50 years ago we began seeing pieces of the structure operate independently, without human involvement, in very limited areas and circumstances, e.g. welding pieces of cars together.

We are approaching or have already reached a point today where more of the structure operates without direct human involvement than with.

In other words, a computer can mostly design a microchip and build a factory to manufacture it with limited human involvement, less than half the process being implemented by humans.

When this halfway point is reached, would you still call this structure "human-created", or would you describe it as something else?

That might be, but how many people tweet about social justice concerns using their iPhones, and yet cast no light on these problems? Globalization on it's own isn't enough to improve human rights as long as there's a commercial incentive to suppress them. People taking an interest, making purchasing decisions, putting pressure on companies, voting in line with these ethics in mind, etc. can have some impact. This idea that we can just sit back and let economics improve quality of life -- at least at the very bottom -- seems a little naive.
I built a memory allocator for testing not too long ago that only allocated but no-op'd deallocate(using the C++ Allocator interface). It was quite amazing that it resulted in a 25-50% performance boost in many cases I was testing. It's not for real code as you only get destruction but not deallocation. It let me pull that part out of the tests to get a better view of the performance

Planting a flag next to General Dynamics driveway so that you can collect a percentage off every aircraft that goes buy is rent seeking.

If patent holders were required to specifically identify and price the technology they encumber standards with such that the standards setters can pick and choose which were worth it-- that would be a different matter, but it isn't how it works. Note that I pointed out that the specific patented technologies often have negligible or even negative benefits.
Read the whole POSIX specification for the "Shell Command Language", and in particular how input is processed by the shell through all the multiple expansion passes.

https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/V...

From there, you have a better background for reading the documentation of shell implementations, like Bash.

Also study Awk:

Those who don't know Awk do comical things with cockamamie combinations of cut, sed, grep, echo ... and clumsy loops written in shell.

Other than shell syntax and semantics, it's a matter of knowing a large number of utilities.

Cordless phones are a whole different and rather interesting topic. The huge security issues with early cordless phones lead to DECT (or technically DECT 5.0) becoming widespread in the US, and it's actually a rather interesting protocol with a very complex and rich set of capabilities considering we normally only see it used for simple cordless phones. IP over DECT is an uncommon but interesting application.
Hi,

I have created a mindfulness meditation app that focuses on the function.

There are many apps for mindfulness meditation, but most of the ones out there are mainly audio-guided content. Therefore, I thought about whether I could make meditation easier by the function of the app rather than the content.

Please see the site for features.

If you have any feedback or suggestions, feel free to comment.

Thanks,
Depends on your model of capital flow. One reasonable answer would be the factory owners or investors. Another reasonable answer is that the workers did, because their work led enabled the factory to succeed.
This is really cool, it looks sleek and I like the category break down. However there is a distinct lack of metrics, visualisations and avaliable data - seems the dashboard only shows me information from the last week. The page also kept freezing for me which is a major deterrent given it replaces the native Chrome history UI.

On that note, I'm surprised extensions can access and manipulate internal Chrome pages, that seems like a major oversight - especially as Chrome says "You're viewing a secure Google Chrome page".

The working conditions the Luddites faced were a huge downgrade too. Not many textile workers were getting their limbs torn off before being made to work in factories designed, owned and operated by people who had little to no regard for worker safety. All of the safety regulations we have today were written in blood; their blood. And not infrequently, the workers being maimed were children. It's easy to sneer at the Luddites today, couldn't they see that their lives would be improved by cheaper clothing? But people who sneer at Luddites should try putting themselves in the shoes of a worker who's seen children killed in that textile factory. Whose children have to work in that factory because the pay is so shit.

Unix evolved in an age of batch processing.

Files were the default datastore, and text streams the default inter-process interface.

Although the world is changing, a surprising amount of it still operates through those tools.

A good way to understand the tooling is to do one of the Linux from scratch or similar projects, perhaps look at swapping out some tools for self-written alternatives, and scratching your own itch building projects that solve problems you have yourself.

Most people who reach a degree of proficiency in shell also have an innate understanding of the kernel's general organization, the nature of filesystems, the boot process, database types, are capable of programming in multiple languages, comoprehend network programming and the challenges of locking and distributed state, and so on. You can't learn all of it in one go, so just leverage that interest and enthusiasm and devote the time.

You've got your GPU program that needs to be compiled to actual GPU code at startup as well. That takes a bit.

The actual file transfer is comparable to the GPU doing a memcpy. (You could also use pinned host memory if the GPU program is just doing a one-off read.)

GPU processing for simple operations really shines if your data is already on the GPU and your code is hot. Otherwise, it's more useful if the process is significantly complex enough to make the overhead of a cold startup insignificant.
