What will your policy be on content moderation / censorship? Where are you based? What are your political biases?

The normalization of deplatforming and censorship is one of the most dangerous turns in recent times. I don’t wish to support any platform which will remove content that isn’t explicitly illegal.
I understand the point of the article, but if you're serious about reading company statements you (at least at first) skip all promo material / preso-looking pages and skip to the part looks the most boring. Literally, don't even look at them (at first). Or even better you can do it the Buffett way, read from the end to the beginning.

I worked at a ‘startup’ in the Healthcare sector that drug tested everyone on initial hire. They were spun off from one of the big US hospitals though.

You can just watch the movie "Dr. Strangelove."

People thought it was SciFi, but it was actually a documentary.

The nuclear silo launch code for decades was "000000" to save time to launch.

Also, Reagan and Russia didn't care about some goofy MAD doctrine - they wanted actual ABM defenses. That's why there's an ABM ring allowed by treaty around Moscow, and why Reagan funded SDI (lasers weren't implemented, but anti-missile missiles were.) Reagan thought MAD was immoral if you could build a real defense, and he was right.

Something most people don't know is that Russia seriously planned to nuke Beijing durng their 1969 border dispute, but the US found out and told them not to. The CCP did their "wolf warrior" b.s. on Russia, and after the Russians had enough they decided to root out the problem once and for all.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sino-Soviet_border_conflict

Ironically, the CCP asked Russia to declare a joint war on the US in the 50's and 60's twice for communist ideological reasons, but Russia laughed them off since there was no practical advantage for Russia.

Although Russia's weapons worked just fine, the US over-estimated Russian belligerence and grossly under-estimated the CCP.

The US Democrats are obsessed with the Russians, but it's the CCP that is completely unhinged. Xi wants to be god on earth over all other countries.

It seems like the blog is referencing the documents posted directly on Netflix's website[1], the early versions of which do open up with well-designed cover pages.

In contrast, the link you shared is perhaps the direct filings that the SEC receives from the company, which may remove these designed elements prior to filing.

I have a lot of trouble understanding why RSS seems to be perpetually falling out of favor. I guess because it disrupts monetizability. If so, that's unfortunate.

ok let me clarify. It is really not a good idea to give your password out on the internet, even if the person says they are an employee. When I worked at a company handling user data they had strict rules around this because employees had to be accountable for what user data they looked at and how that data was handled. Someone could use your password, do something harmful, and then blame it on you. It would be hard to prove innocence.

It's been 24 years. I probably don't owe a duty of confidentiality any more. So...

We had descriptions of each character of each font in a scalable, vector form. To draw a character, we'd draw it as a bitmap (1-bit depth) at 4 times the size. Then we would shrink each 4x4 cell down to one 8-bit value (weighting the center more than the edges). That 8-bit value was the alpha (transparency) value for drawing the character over whatever was already there in the frame buffer.

When drawing (compositing) one thing over another with an alpha channel, we used true Porter & Duff compositing, with pre-multiplied colors. We had a custom ASIC that would do it, so it was fast.

One of the trade offs was the rise time (or number of pixels, same thing) of the edge of a character. Too fast and the NTSC video signal couldn't handle it (and you'd have visually obvious stair-steps on the diagonals). Too slow and the characters looked soft rather than crisp.

Current shortages impact processes that aren't EUV. For example, the consoles, AMD CPUs and GPUs all use non-EUV N7. And Nvidia is on Samsung's 8nm, also not EUV. There are delays and shortages all over the industry if you read DigiTimes. Packaging in particular. Capital and lead time sensitive industries like this suffer greatly when demand increases unexpectedly.

Second that linked forum thread is really unclear. Some even thinking that Intel was the customer who delayed EUV machine orders (which would make sense given their 7nm problems).

The entire peacetime power of industrialized governments is their fiat currency. Without it, these governments don't even exist. No alternatives to fiat can be tolerated in the long term.

An easy solution would be to just ban crypto from being on either side of any regulated transaction. That would include cashing out, as that is a transaction from crypto to fiat currency. Depositing money into crypto would become unregulated (you have no recourse if you are ripped off), but that wouldn't matter - hardly anyone beyond darknet participants will want to bother at that point. Crypto can go back to being the currency of choice for buying weed or mdma...no one will care at that point, as fiat currency isn't threatened by drug deals.

Some people seem to think the size of the crypto market means it can't be smashed for yucks. No one who "matters" is staked out on crypto, these people can all be left to twist in the wind.

Crypto can be destroyed. Gold on the other hand can only be moved. There is no economical way to actually destroy gold, and obviously no way to create more of it. Gold will still be here when the last Beanie Baby unravels, when the last Hank Aaron baseball card turns to dust, and when the last ssd full of bitcoin falls apart in a landfill.
I think your complaint is justified. I am currently tired, going to sleep momentarily, but not otherwise impaired, and it took me almost a full minute of staring at the screen, trying to figure out what you were trying to demonstrate..

I worked for a company that would spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on their annual report. Every year it was a big deal. There were meetings, interviews, photo shoots and a lot of late nights to make sure it was just perfect and on time. It was beautiful every year.

Then one year a new Chief of operations was hired. She reviewed costs and saw that the creative department was too expensive. She closed it and outsourced the work.

One thing that happened was that the annual report was turned into a plain accounting report which reported the needed information. Tada, no one really complained, people that needed the information got what they needed and a few hundred thousand dollars was saved every year. It never came back.

Size isn’t really the focus. It’s a stylistic choice. These days if you built something with the limitations that Delta Force had, you’d probably be able to render scenes in the quadrillions of voxels. The largest scene I’ve seen is 1,000,000^3 voxels at < 1mm/voxel.
That's what I figured. So the blog post is completely off-course - this person is complaining that the Investor Relations site no long has tarted up versions of the annual filings.

4k gaming is fine unless you brute force lighting by ray tracing. Even Cyberpunk which is very unoptimized. VR is a separate story. It needs both high resolution and high frame rates.
8k is not handled by current GPUs.

DLSS is a cute hack. We have better scalers than that in video market, its main advantage is speed. Instead, fixed function scaler should be better than outdated 5-tap filter. Remind me again when it matches basic scalers put in Smart TVs.

The gaming GPUs are hilariously underpowered for compute, even something like 3090, vs MI100 or A100. It's just the latter cost $10k per unit.

I would hope that most reasonable managers would realize that people sell their company stock for all sorts of reasons, most of which having nothing to do with how much the employee believes in the company.

And a manager that doesn't get that, and would retaliate/discriminate, is the kind of manager that probably has other, worse faults, and already engages in much worse anti-employee behavior.

That's an interesting idea. One downside is that DNS isn't secure. So if someone can MITM your DNS (a coffee shop wifi for example), they could then set cookies on com .

You're literally supporting the argument of the person you're replying to without even realizing it.

Disproportionately high returns indicates a highly volatile asset, and it's just as likely to go the other way, resulting in staggering losses.

These are not markers of a good, long-term storage asset class.

/usr/local was originally for local (ie host) software that wasn't in /usr/{bin,lib,sbin,slib...} or /{bin,lib,sbin,slib...}.

Then GNU took over and made some opinionated choices about how those subdirectories were to be used, which is fine.

However, because /usr/local is under /usr, it meant that it was more difficult to mount /usr as read-only or shared. There is also the issue of whether files under /usr/local should be owned by non-system users.

A while back, the creation of /opt and /opt/{some-app} (and /var/opt/{some-app} became a way to avoid writing into /usr and also made it possible to mount applications with their code as read only with writable locations under /var.

So I've taken writing to /usr/local as a packaging smell these days, purely to avoid writing into /usr.

I know many people who wouldn't necessarily understand that compiled programs tend to be faster, because it just hasn't come up, or because in their domain it's not really important or even clear.

If you've been working primarily with Javascript, for example, or even worse, Typescript, the question of "is this thing compiled or interpreted" is "yes". Compilation becomes a piece of either build tooling, where the artifact isn't a concrete binary, or even an attribute of runtime.

It really wouldn't be too hard to imagine a shop built on Javascript and Python, where compilation just doesn't factor into the system in a meaningful way.
