I had a similar mindset and was vegetarian for around 7 years. My girlfriend 3 years ago challenged me on some of my thoughts and I bit the bullet and stopped eating all animal products. The transition is a lot easier if you’re already vegetarian and the amount of options around now make it really easy.

Defensive and overly broad patents are definitely a thing, but the intent is to give a monopoly for a limited time. Locking down alternatives not currently in production that are obvious workarounds is kind of a requirement for most patents to be meaningful. The issue is when a company in effect owns an industry and then keeps submitting obvious patents. But, here the problem is with obvious patents being granted.

"control remotely" as in "issue arbitrary commands" is absolutely _not_ required for an update mechanism.

The machine _itself_ can check for updates, and issue _only_ those commands that are _necessary_. You don't need complete control over a machine for an update mechanism.

But the entire update infrastructure has issues... Firmware binaries downloaded over unprotected basic FTP... No checksums... No authenticated signatures... And arbitrary commands issued at the root level.

These issues would be a lot less troublesome if hardware offered basic security, like zero-cost poison-on-overflow and bounds-checked pointers, either of which would solve any risks of just letting it be. But right now there's the pragmatic question of not only whether this is a bug you could hit accidentally, but whether it's a bug you could exploit intentionally to corrupt memory, so it's better to just do the technically-correct thing even if it seems pointless.

It's less concerning for C#, which is a managed language, of course.

I don't think that's not the reason at all, features are regularly added to ruby with much more complicated consequences for the parser.

I would speculate the reason is that it's a very consequential change for the user, and they don't want to commit to it yet. I bet Ruby 4.0 will have optional inline types, if it turns out RBS are as functional as is expected.
Most mutations aren't viable. Given the low fidelity of RNA replication (at least compared to DNA replication) it's remarkable just how close each copy is in a large population. Only a few mutations prove to be viable. Much less prove to be strong enough to overpower the current population.

When I studied compilers back in the university, the subject consist in reading understanding and putting in practice the 'dragon book' (not the full book but a big part of it). We all used flex+yacc and a simplified ASM that was interpreted by some educational software which name I cant remember. The project for the year was to implement a basic compiler language: included if/for loops, function calls, recursivity ... basic stuff but enough as starting point to build something.

Trying to get into LLVM, Id love to find an example done in flex+yacc vs the same done in LLVM.
> The machine _itself_ can check for updates, and issue _only_ those commands that are _necessary_.

The problem with this statement is that the machine doesn't know what sequence of actions is necessary to put the system into the "updated" state. If it knew, it wouldn't have to contact anything in order to update itself. It would already have known.
The style in those old films is so relaxing and pedagogically great.

> With this explanation it seems that if one wheel gets slightly stuck, the other wheel gets all the force, causing a dangerous spinning.

This is how a (open) differential behaves, though a spinning wheel isn't so much dangerous as ineffective. This limitation can be overcome using a locking differential or a limited-slip differential, or a traction-control system that selectively applies brakes to a spinning wheel to simulate a limited-slip differential.
In the real world momentum dampens how quickly power is transferred between wheels. Further, real world engines have limited RPM ranges which generally don’t damage freely spinning tires.

So, while such simple differentials can get stuck fairly easily, they also work surprisingly well. The obvious trick is to apply some breaking power to the spinning wheel to then apply force to the stuck one, thus traction control. Or to just lock a differential when bouldering etc. More complicated mechanical systems can always provide some power to both wheels, but they aren’t actually necessary.

How to measure the degree? You've wrote percentages as an example, how they should be understood? The frequency of altered behavior? But there are tons of different factors altering behavior, as personal so situational factors. They somehow also should be measured.

I would be much more skeptical, if they provided measurements outside of ordinal scale of measurement[1]. One can compare two setups on basis less/greater, but not to measure them in absolute scale.

Well - that's engineering.

Physics is experimental model building of phenomena which are not yet understood and are being explored.

Engineering is experimental model building of phenomena which are mostly understood, albeit sometimes with some quirks and unexpected edge cases.

Applied math is the toolset used in both physics and engineering.

Pure math is the abstract and philosophical exploration of symbolic relationships within all of math.

Academic CS - Wirth and Dijkstra-style - is the tiny subset of pure math used to explore theories of computing.

Practical CS is mostly just relatively trivial puzzle solving using a combination of cookbook academic CS with a bit of invention and innovation with influences from user psychology, marketing, and business design.

The most academic and mathematical parts of practical CS is ML and AI, which are genuinely exploratory. The second most academic part is probably processor architecture, where you may be applying statistical modelling to cache design and instruction pipeline outcomes.

Most of the rest is pretty basic compared to engineering modelling - never mind academic physics.

You can go really far in Haskell without specifying a single type. I haven't done so in a long while, but I'm pretty sure explicit types in Haskell are only necessary when you're trying to lock down an API or are outputting to something generic.

More than a bit, it's massive strawman that wastes everyone's time, no pun intended. To the extent that people have tried to develop a Theory Of Comment Sections and why they are so frequently, unfortunately bad, most of it centers around the frequency of uncharitable bad faith engagement with things that could be interpreted more reasonably.

Nobody addresses themselves to the most reasonable interpretation of the thing they respond to, and that's the primary mechanism that pushes the quality of comment sections down. And I think we've got another datapoint in support of that here.

Lack of gas service is mostly a geography issue ie rural vs urban, and less of a climate issue. Most of the small rural towns in the SE have gas service in at least the city centers, if nothing else for the municipal and the hospital generators.

On site Propane storage can be super expensive capital wise, and also it just does not give you much runtime for any serious usage. The best solution is battery with generator backup for onsite, which our local 911 just went to in the SE, because the uptime in that setup was 4x generator with onsite storage because of the increased production efficiency.

Nice article. There are more interesting things to say about RNA that makes it a bit less like code - for example that it too can fold to a 3d structure, with some cases that can cause problems - hairpins for example where the sequence is palindrome-like (in the complementing letters) ACG followed by CGU can fold onto itself. This caused the problems with the initial batch of CDC's PCR tests
That is not what the comment says. The comment says:

Not that people will take the time and effort to verify the signatures. Not to mention that you can still call them and say "eeeh I'm Jones, you know, I just had to renew my signature, so it won't check, but it's me. bye"

To be clear, the reason the above comment is downvoted, is because the issue in the article will not be solved by signing emails. Signing is a way of ensuring the email has not been tampered with. The attacker created a domain that looks similar to the original (e.g. using gooogle.com instead of google.com). Google gets around this by owning all the alternatives but many other companies cannot realistically do this). Even if we had secure end-to-end email, their emails would still be signed because the scammers are using their domain, and can set DKIM, SPF, DMARC records to ensure their emails are not tampered with. In a future where our emails are encrypted with PGP, email recipients would look up the PGP public key of a email sender, and would get the one the scammer had uploaded.

The reason why people hate on LetsEncrypt somewhat, is that these scammers can create a TLS certificate immediately and for free for their new phishing domain (e.g. gooooogle.com). It would have otherwise been a small financial barrier for scammers to get this setup, and some of these scammers operate on volume (trying many different domains, getting only a few victims). I think LetsEncrypt does a great job, yes there is a small price to pay to allow the rest of the internet to have secure http traffic (https).

I think the real issue is of user experience. There is no easy way to check who your emails came from except from checking the from: field in the email. Reading these emails is boring and tiring. I think if email clients warned users to validate sender email addresses when receiving emails for the first time, it would make it safer. Therefore, bob@goooogle.com will show up for validation again, and the user has to read and validate it.

Effectively, I suggest using "whitelists" instead of "blacklists". If I had a startup, I would think deeply about not provide emails to my employees. That's how bad I think it is. But then again, to communicate with other companies, its either email or linkedIn...

Plus, recruits were enticed into the army by promises of as much white rice as they could eat."
