What OSes? Citation please.

Microkernel as cpu architecture abstraction layer. Such are only accidentally microkernels and not OSes at all as i understand them. They deliver on what of all those wonderful lists of microkernel benefits?

What, you don't think they have copies along with an enormous number of other people?
Since large numbers of people (bottom several deciles) are doing very poorly, it means that if mean indicators would be stable, then someone else must be doing very good; and even more so if average indicators up.
That they're only doing it now that trump is leaving office maybe suggests the opposite - that government does have a lot of control
you can still get around this with some effort [1] and a pfsense box, the pfsense box gets wan from the ont and the original att router is hung off a third nic where it's allowed to do 802.1x and nothing else. the setup was a little challenging at first but has been maintenance free since. maybe there is a technical reason they have their network set up this way but i was offended at the idea of being prevented from using my own router.

Not in this case, though. Or am I missing anything?
You compared 95% (the Pfizer efficacy number) to 29% (the relative risk reduction number calculated by that article.) That is incorrect. You should acknowledge that.
I didn’t think of that. Thanks for the tip. The internet continues to disappoint in UX.
I have a contrarian take. The Canadian tech scene is limited not by the Captains of Canada’s industry (although it might be a factor, but not the major one) but by the simple fact that Canada’s economy and population are much smaller than the US and importantly, Canada doesn’t throw insane amounts of Cash into its Defense industry. They also cannot deficit spend forever like the US can because of the USD. I would wager these structural issues are likely to be more consequential than debating over compensation fixation.
I'm one as well, but I think the OP meant that the company is not trying to keep the existing experienced employees and just replacing them when they leave.

My company started doing the same and erosion of knowledge is really bad.
Yes that is the technical conclusion. But maybe the most important thing is that we have to do an actual teardown of the product in order to have some confidence that Amazon is not lying on it's Echo capabilities.

To be clear, I am not saying we should trust Amazon & Co, I'm saying that if that's the level of trust we have with home assistance devices, why even bother with the stuff ?
It's possible create an interpretation where all of the computation happens in the interpreter instead of the system being interpreted.

With the right algorithm, could interpret the randomly moving particles in a gas as computing conway's game of life or anything else, if the algorithm just disregards everything about the particles and contains instructions that generate the expected results from conway's game of life. In that extreme case, I don't think it's useful at all to claim that the gas particles are simulating conway's game of life.

In an opposite extreme, you could say that the randomly moving particles in a gas are computing the motion of the random movements of particles in a gas. The interpretation algorithm is just "look at the particles at time t. Their locations represent the particles' locations at time t.". It's clear here that the system being interpreted is in fact doing all the computation and that nothing is hidden in the interpreter's work.

One interesting way to try to differentiate these two cases is that if you want the results of a longer-running simulation, then in the latter case, you let the actual system run longer, and the work to interpret it doesn't increase at all. In the former case, if you want to get the results of running conway's game of life for 2000 steps instead of 1000 steps, then it doesn't matter how long you let the gas particles go on for, but you do have to do more work on the interpreting side.
> Then you think it must be a good strategy, because it's complicated to you. This is a very common fallacy.

Exactly this.

A friend of mine (PhD, smart guy, excellent programmer) called me for advice and his argument was - I am smart so surely I will find some unique opportunity in the markets.

And my answer - You don't believe but there are hundreds of thousands smarter people with deeper pockets...

Save the Constitution from Big Tech
This isn't a debate of ideas or words anymore. One side went full kinetic against the government, with the intention of preventing the democratic transition of power to the Biden administration.

Enabling sedition has real consequences now, and it is in the best interest of the shareholders of any corporation to defend the government which provides legal and institutional legitimacy to your enterprise. That's why CEOs are making this calculation, not because they are being influenced by liberal employees. There is zero guarantee that the "MAGA Republic" would continue to let Facebook or Twitter continue to operate.
Which means:

1 looking at who is advertising around unwanted content. That’s hardly a new strategy.

And 2 looking at how filter bubbles work. Not news.

What about many-valued logic like in balanced ternary where you have -1 for false, 0 for something like don't care(in this context/tbd), and 1 for true?
Same as adhering to any standard? The software you want to run produces VT-compatible output, the terminal consumes that and provides a display.
All physical processes that we understand are computational. The sun and Earth for example are a computer which is constantly computing the velocity and position of a two-body system (the sun and the earth). Computation is essentially a mechanical process, in the sense that it requires no interpretation, so the question of 'who is the user of a computer' is completely meaningless.

It is disturbing that a philosopher who writes books about these concepts does not understand even this elementary fact about computation. The whole point of developing computer theory was in fact to rid mathematics of the need for human ingenuity, to find simple mechanical rules that can be followed even by a machine to arrive at the same results that a mathematician would.

Related to qualia and the Chinese room experiment and so on, those are arguments about something we perceive, but they do not describe something that we know for sure is fundamental about the world. They may well be descriptions of an illusion we have. You can't assume the existence of qualia as proof that something can't be computational, it mostly goes the other way around: you would have to prove that qualia are real to prove that something can't be computational.
I can accept that fact but still.. one is making actual sentences.
This assumes the denominator is fixed, ie., that there is no net change to the size of the economy; which is false.
I like it. Clever, and current context relevant.

Cheers.

> the network sees censorship as a system failure and it will always attempt to find a route around that

No, it really doesn't. John was wrong. What happens is that 'censorship' is applied at a particular level of the stack and this forces people who want to share or view the content to move to a more complicated and expensive process at a higher level of abstraction in the delivery stack. This is because decentralized systems are less efficient and because, so far, decentralized systems have incredibly shitty UX. You can shine a spotlight on decentralized alternatives and they may get a little bit of attention, but the attention will not last long enough to have a significant impact. The true believers may try to make the effort for a while, but they will slowly drift back to spending most of their time using the easiest possible mechanism and tool because they actually have other things to do with their time and life.
Oh yeah, but when the pendulum swings the other way in a couple of years (and it will) they will be screwed. For Republicans, corps have clear that they have a side and its against Republicans.

It's the disadvantage of corporations getting into politics.
I don't think this is true, sorry. TS5 is definitely not built on Matrix.

You didn’t go over the possibility that Canadians may prefer to live in Canada compared to the United States. Last time I checked there wasn’t a race war and a group of belligerents storming the capitol in Canada.
I don’t disagree, but my comment was more about policies. Presidents as people are much less influential than the policies they enact.

idk, I think this time round the "war on terror" will be directed more inwards.
> but that's not because she has ill will towards the child - its because she has no other way to dissipate the energy at that point

I am not sure where you was aiming at, but this sort of logic actually makes people not to intervene in clearly abusive situations. It is also sort of logic that people use to pressure abuse victim to stay in abusive relationships. It is also what makes victims stay in abusive relationship.

The fact is, parent not having ill will deep down is not what is affecting the child. The child is affected by the unfair scolding. Your example is asking for empathy for someone who made you angry (unfair mom), but does not ask empathy for child. Unfair scolding is not end of world nor is it CPS worthy verbal abuse. But the principle is the same.
I must've missed the part where anyone was driven to storm the Capitol as a result of this?
The Wall Street Journal had an article [1] laying out how Trump and his allies have been setting the stage for what happened at the Capitol on the 6th.

I think there is a terminology disconnect here. Typically people mean “Western Europe” when discussing wealth indicators. Eastern Europe is a specific case that suffered from a few “lost” decades, it accounts for less than a fourth of the EU population, and as much as it’s catching up fairly quickly, it still lags behind quite significantly and is not representative of “European” wealth indicators.
Eh, stuff like older vxworks plays loose and fast with the term microkernel that wouldn't fly today. I don't even think they try to claim that it is one anymore until their most recent release where they actually added (optional) process isolation.

What’s the PE in “Amazon Devices PE” stand for?
As others have pointed out, mosh doesn't support port forwarding, and because ssh doesn't support udp forwarding, can't easily be used with proxyjump servers.

Story time: I had tmux sessions active on all our servers and would simply ssh into my work laptop from home, so the sessions were never really closed. One day, I decided to upgrade from 1404 to 1604 and closed out all my sessions (including on the servers because I was pushing out a new tmux config). After 5 minutes we started getting smss that the system was down and couldn't write to disk. One of our production servers had been set up with an encrypted home folder and when my session closed out, it closed the encrypted folder. Unfortunately, the ssh folder wasn't outside the encrypted portion, so we had to use IPMI to restore access. That's the story about how we started joking that closing my laptop is a great way to break the production system.
I had tried medications and cognitive behavioral therapy. CBT worked the best in my opinion.
More intelligent systems will find more efficient ways to achieve their goals than dumber ones (us). They will also select more effective intermediate goals and 'stepping stone' states towards their goals than we can anticipate. The consequence of this is that we cannot anticipate what means and intermediate objectives they will use. That's exactly what you are doing in your example, but attempting to speculate on that is futile.

That's what the paperclip maximiser example tries to show. In that example one of the intermediate goals to creating maximum paperclips is destroying human civilisation. It's not the ultimate objective, it's just an intermediate state necessary to efficient completion of the underlying goal. It's possible that in fact a superintelligent paperclip maximiser might work out a better strategy that uses human civilisation as a level to maximise paperclips, but maybe not. There's simply no way for us to be sure, because by definition it's smarter than us.

Empathizing with someone and addressing their concerns is a textbook opener. It is not the same as condoning their choice of actions. "Please go home now" seems like a very explicit call to action.

That aside, a post-hoc statement can't be construed as a precipitory.
You surely did miss all those months of rioting, violence in the streets, shootings and burning cities to the ground.

After the 2016 election I was really curious as to how Trump could be elected. Most of my peers brushed it off as dumb, racist white people, but I really wanted to understand. Especially since I had family who had voted for him who I don't consider to be dumb or racist.

I'm from the coast and live in the city. When taking a road trip through the Midwest, it hit me that people from the rust belt and rural areas had to vote for his message. Honestly it was depressing to see the decaying factories and poverty stricken areas. He was giving them hope and was going to fight for them. Anyway, I may be wrong but that's just my perspective.

Someone posted this video here yesterday with Steve Bannon explaining the populist movement and how Trump came to be president. There are multiple parts and this video is over two hours long but worth the watch. I'm not normally one to watch a video over half an hour and especially not Steve Bannon, but it's quite fascinating to hear this story and perspective.

I'll say the unpopular.

From a business stand point - it makes sense.

You need a team who you can trust to execute without looking over their shoulder. They're loyal, brilliant and quick. Startups that we celebrate on this forum exude this from all their pores.

When you start from scratch it's "easy" to create such an environment. You don't have random people going off and doing random things. Everyone is pointed, focused and hungry to get to the same goal.

If you don't, you run the risk of becoming lazy or hamstrung by politics and red-tape of people who want their rubber stamp to "show something for it". That's Intel vs ARM at the moment.

It's a fine balance. Obviously you don't want "yes men" but you want people who are willing to move as a unit.

I also agree it's terrible. Whole units are ousted because there's a new guy on top. People that gave sometimes decades to the company.

All I'm trying to say is - it's not so clear cut.

Nah, Bernie after each election seems to crawl right back to the DNC establishment even while they spank him. I wished both times that he stood up to the DNC more if only for the DNC’s own health. I clearly don’t understand his thinking about this.

I saw that forum post earlier yesterday. What makes it credible?

It's a post by a very recent account, that didn't write that much to begin with.

With that said, screenshots look similar to the Element Matrix client: https://community.teamspeak.com/t/wishlist/1436/283

Even if TS5 was to be based on a Matrix client, that doesn't imply it supports the official Client-Server nor Server-Server APIs.

> imo free speech is a human right and corporations shouldn’t oppress it even if they legally can. just like they shouldn’t discriminate even if they legally could

Let's say I (or my company) hosted an online message board, and a thread was brought to my attention with messages like "We need to hunt down every last Democrat senator and put a bullet in their head!", with replies like "Amen! I'll bring my rifles" and "What time should we meet?".

You'd better believe I'd "oppress" such speech and ban the users, and you'd be severely hard-pressed to convince me that such a response is a human rights violation. Those messages, or whatever fabricated claims were used to justify the threats therein, don't constitute "political opinions" just because political parties and politicians are named. Likewise, outright false/fabricated claims that "the Democrats" fraudulently/secretly changed the result of the 2020 election are, in no way, "political opinions" -- rather, they are statements of (false) fact, meant to incite viewers to violence for the fabricator's gain.

For me to un-publish such posts from my web site cannot be considered discrimination against a political group; it's refusal to allow my servers to help conspirators commit a violent crime. If you want to brand something as "horrific" here, it should be the posts I described and not the take-downs.

No, and that's by design, as many browsers limit you to two http-connections per domain. When you're loading tens of images (like map tiles), you want to use as many different subdomains as possible to load them in parallel.

Please. They were a bunch of bafoons who got too far because the law enforcement was not staffed enough at the area.

All I'm seeing is a bunch of private companies doing a job that should be up to law enforcement. The idiots successfully turned around a widespread condemnation and political suicide of Trump into a debate on their power.
Yes, kind of like how you should get shots for yellow fever or tropical diseases when going on some trips.

But if you begin saying you need shots to go in Poland, it's maybe not going to be accepted as easily as for tropical countries...

BTW the side effects of the shots we give to go to French Guyane is something to behold. Roommate was literally covered with red dots and it itched like hell.

I remember seeing this video some years ago and, as a Dutchman, was astounded how much I learned about the Dutch way of treating cyclists. It just seems so obvious and normal when you grow up in it.

I started biking to school at age 6. No helmet, no parent accompanying. So did all my friends.

Later, I had shitty jobs in far flung industrial areas. All had proper bike lanes.

The list goes on. Remember though, as the video mentions somewhere, this is the result of hardcore decision making since the 60ties. Not an overnight succes.
