Because by not taking the person serious you now commit to making a public political stance. The Twitter user claims that this post contains sexism and elitism.

By keeping it up you must defend the fact that you are not being sexist or elitist by criticising encrypted save files. It’s easier to just cave in than put in that effort for a joke.
Seems like if the US govt. can have a policy that disrupts the revolving door, they could also institute a policy that all tenders require the perpetual rights to technical data? Especially if this is a problem that even outsiders are aware of. So I wonder what's stopping such obvious and sensible policy from being enacted?

Edit:

I'll answer my own rhetorical question: because budget forecast time periods are aligned with election cycles.
Instead of taking a moment and having a teaching opportunity the school has shown that it is in fact not worth the tuition. I guess a private school can do what it wants but without due process it's certainly not acting in accordance with Christian ideals.

The filing of a lawsuit itself suggests that the school administrators have clearly failed.

My experience is that it's always the parents who make things worse.

There were some pretty interesting points in this screed (mostly the artistic critiques) but I was unconvinced by the criticisms of proof-of-stake. They kinda glossed over that one with a pretty dismissive rant about how Eth2 is taking too long. I mean, I guess? I'd rather they get it right and find a more efficient network. I also wanted to read more about replicating existing structures in the physical art world and issues surrounding an artwork's aura in the digital age. Also, the entire “ah i see you critique capitalism and yet you live in society, how curious” section was completely skippable. Felt like this writer's twitter rage plopped onto the end of an essay for no good reason. A little too much predictable yelling here for my taste, but a few good takeaways for sure.
FWIW TurnKey is also available in ISO & OVA too (plus other builds such as EC2).

So even if you aren't using Promxox/LXC you can still give TurnKey a try! :)

Just FYI no death has been officially linked to a "rioter", no firearms have been found in connection with it. Sites like ZH are tracking all this, because to many it smells like yet another staging of political capital.
You can swap the sexes and apply the same argument, predicting the opposite result. So I don't think you have it quite right.

"No Slave Labor" would be better, as China is not the only country with those particular "cultural differences".
Of course they did! They want control. Meanwhile, the population doesn't trust its government and wants a non-Venezuelan controlled currency.

Legitimizing crypto currencies by creating one, without increasing trust in the government just results in more of the Venezuelan people buying a denationalized crypto.

> It’s possible that, as Jiménez suggested, Venezuela’s peer-to-peer bitcoin activity wouldn’t be where it is today without crypto-friendly initiatives from the government itself. It’s also possible that bitcoin adoption in Venezuela may be driven by the sheer rate of Venezuela’s hyperinflation, which outpaces other crisis economies. [0]

At least for Racket, which does have TCO, the for-loop is really a macro for a tail recursive loop. I'm not sure about other languages with more aggressive optimization though.
> Do you have a specific example of where you think you need to lie to teach physics?

If we are defining "lie" to mean "simplifying the model to allow students to understand what's going on" (which is what we're talking about) then basically every field of physics required some simplifications in order to teach.

For instance, it would be "lying" to teach Newtonian dynamics and Newton's theory of gravity at all without explaining relativity -- Newton's theory of gravity is "wrong" after all. It would be "lying" to teach electromagnetism without first explaining quantum mechanics. However it would be impossible to teach anything to a high-school or undergraduate student if you first had to explain everything else in order to teach F=ma or Gauss's law.

I think there's also a limit to how many times you can say "this is simplified" to students before they feel like they're being pandered to or that they're being told they're "not smart enough to understand the full theory". Physics was developed over many thousands of years, it's not really reasonable to expect a student to be able to learn it in one shot. Physics courses are often structured so that you learn concepts in historical order so that you learn how concepts were developed and what motivated future discoveries -- that is also a very useful thing to learn in addition to the actual physics.

I believe the same applies to mathematics education.

Source: I majored in physics. Every year we had an electromagnetism course and we learned that the model we had learned last year was too simplified to work with. Same goes for thermodynamics.
> The real problem with ethics is that it's not a science nor a rigorous discipline: it's a trend. It's whatever is trendy to say and think at the moment.

Maybe it's trendy to say and think that? but that doesn't sound anything like ethics. Ethics is a part of philosophy, not a part of science or maths. That it is what it is, is not a "problem with ethics". (Sorry if I misunderstand you. Maybe you were just talking about "AI ethics". ...In which case, what do people who call AI ethics "ethics" call ethics, a.k.a. moral philosophy?)
I believe they intentionally left it up to third party modules instead of baking in one way of doing it. I created a module called mock on their third party module registry that can be used for spying on and stubbing functions. Even with third party modules, you cannot mock Deno.connect directly because the Deno object is not extensible. If you'd like to spy on or stub connect, you could have Deno.connect passed in to your function as an argument that you can replace in tests with a spy wrapper around it or your mocked out version of it.

I need some help interpreting the location data. For example, if you click on Los Angeles, there's a bar chart with median and different percentiles. I assume this is across all engineer levels (I - V). But I'm interested in compensation for a level at a location.

Going by years of experience, my level is Staff (IV) and the description notes that this is 10% of all engineers. Looking at the LA bar chart, the 90th percentile is around $325k total compensation. So a Staff level engineer in the LA area should expect around this much. Does this analysis seem correct with the given data?

Note that I haven't really optimized it yet. Certainly there should be low-hanging fruits, but I don't dare to get them as it is good enough for me as GNOME is no longer laggy and I know some overheads cannot be eliminated.

If I have to do graphics-intensive workload, I would simply run it on macOS or buy another accelerator as M1 is not the best performant graphics accelerator in the market anyway.
Wouldn't surprise me if there are classified quantum computers crunching numbers as we speak tbh.

Yeah I started the interview process with Apple and they mentioned that we would have to relocate to the bay. Wife and I looked up house prices and we were like NOPE.

Even in the extreme unlikely case of opening up Apps without App Store. People will still be using apps. Even if they are Web Apps or Apps with WebView. It will still be Apps. Simply because accessing a button is easier than typing in a link.

Web is still great for Discovery though.
Because digitizing all the things has been wonderous for the human condition. Sky rocketing cases of anxiety, depression and mental illness in the days of hyper digital connectivity. Let's double down some more.

Also, take some lessons from history. Republics and Democracies are slow by design. The idea being, an educated public is able to route a renegade government body. Dictatorships are world renown for their speed and efficiency... not so much for their human rights advocacy. Even Bush Jr made the joke back in the day that passing laws would be a whole hell of a lot easier if the US was a dictatorship.

Dont bitch you dont have a voice in the current system when you cant even be bothered to try.

I prefer arguing that a politician is an asshole rather than trying to convince people that the all mighty algorithm is flawed. Content creators are already fighting back against the tyranny of algorithms, you think a gov based one is going to solve anything?
I saw no hint of any of that in Grandparenrs comment.

Yep, you’re right, just saw the video from SpaceX. Good call. This actually makes me wonder if they significantly changed the landing profile since they’re scrubbing velocity so much faster with three thrusters, it may explain why the single thruster landing portion seemed slow compared to previous attempts.

I think the selection some improvement improvements needed reach a native-feel. For example, interactions like triple-click to select a line.

However I think the decision to make text selection opt-in makes sense from the context of an application that targets web.

For example, if you open up your mail app or Slack, you will find that a lot of text on the screen isn't selectable. For example, you can't select the text of the tabs on your browser.

If all text was selectable by default for an app, it may cause unexpected results rather than having the develop opt-in to deciding what is selectable. We have many widgets in our app that we wouldn't want selectable for UX reasons.

In practice, it hasn't been much effort for us to make things selectable. Just need to replace a Text widget with a SelectableText widget.
Reading through this thread makes me think the canvas approach has a performance advantage on faster devices (the demos load instantly and feel snappy to me on a Razer Blade Stealth from 2-3 years ago) but probably also has a performance _disadvantage_ on slower devices (people complaining things taking 10-20 seconds to load), etc.

Is that a reasonable assumption?

If so, I wonder if there's anything that could be done to help match the right rendering strategy to devices that handle it better (e.g. DOM on slower devices). Seems easy enough on Android/iOS where you know the device specs (mostly) and can target them, but the web is a huge beast of variance.
Er, I'm not sure whether me pasting it in after they deleted it would be considered mean, but I think this is the gist:

No, the problem is that while you are writing documentation you are not making money for the company. I remember when I and Dave as the senior tech told our boss that we should put the most common repairs into a database so new hires would not have to ask us questions all the time.

He asked how long the job would take, and we answered about a week for all the common stuff. And his answer was, "That is a week you will not be making the company any money.".

We tried to explain the long term savings, but he was not interested.

I am a User Experience Designer with over 6 years of experience. My skills include UI/UX Design, Visual Design, Conceptual Illustrations, Advertising and Print Media.
My expertise is in creating meaningful and visually impactful design solutions.

I am looking for contract or freelance opportunities (up to 40 hours/week).
First, don't ever minimize suicide.
Second, I was talking about the officer who died after being spread by an unknown chemical.
There was a second officer who died by suicide. Third, I don't think the fact the pipe bombs were planted the night before changes anything substantial.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Sicknick
enkid said "due to these protests". The officer died from a stroke while in the hospital due to injuries received at the riot. That at least is very likely "due to these protests".
> “No firearms have been found in connection with it”

This takes moments to search, skipping all the news sites, fake or otherwise, and going to sources:

“Grand Jury ... Indictment ... Count One: On or about Jan 6 2021, within the District of Columbia, Christopher Alberts did carry and have readily accessible, a firearm, that is, a Taurus G2C semi-automatic handgun, on the US Capitol Grounds and in any of the Capitol Buildings.”

Also had a “large capacity ammunition feeding device”.

https://www.justice.gov/usao-dc/case-multi-defendant/file/13...

This individual brought an arsenal, indicted for bringing into the District, not the Capitol building but “in connection”:

https://www.justice.gov/opa/page/file/1352926/download

Separately, the police officer who died is now suspected to be linked to a particular assailant, but through bear spray not fire extinguisher:

“The F.B.I. has pinpointed an assailant in its investigation into the death of Brian D. Sicknick, a Capitol Police officer who was injured while fending off the pro-Trump mob that stormed the Capitol last month and later died, according to two law enforcement officials briefed on the inquiry.”

“The F.B.I. opened a homicide investigation into Officer Sicknick’s death soon after the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. Investigators initially struggled to determine what had happened as he fought assailants. They soon began to suspect his death was related to an irritant, like mace or bear spray, that he had inhaled during the riot. Both officers and rioters were armed with such irritants during the attack.”

“In a significant breakthrough in the case, investigators have now pinpointed a person seen on video of the riot who attacked several officers with bear spray, including Officer Sicknick, according to the officials. And video evidence shows that the assailant discussed attacking officers with the bear spray beforehand, one of the officials said.”

It does not say it’s a rioter, exactly, only that the person was on video of the riot, and discussed attacking officers beforehand.
Quants still pay a silly amount that being a quant at a top firm (citadel, jane street, HRT, etc) still out pays FAANG most of the time. A candidate that interviews well and negotiates some can go for 300-400k new grad bachelors to those firms. That's not doable at FAANG. For FAANGs, over 300k without equity growth requires senior level or top band mid level. 400k needs senior level. While for citadel they're willing to immediately go that high. The growth in pay is also high in finance although it is very bonus heavy so performance matters a lot more than other places.
It's generally accepted for almost all crypto protocols that it's going to be broken eventually (a few rare cases are provably secure, one-time pads and not much else).

If nothing else, quantum computers should break RSA in particular (the algorithm is already known and just waiting for hardware) and the writing has been on the wall there for a long time.

Was this long ago? Or is the engineering team really small compared to the company as a whole? Google says they’re ~2400 people, seems really weird for the most senior technical person in an organization of that size to be conducting coding tests with rank and file candidates.
I don't really see anything controversial. It is just somebody's opinion about generally miserable state of things. I see it different way but, hey, who said everybody has to have same opinion?

Having tracked down a few problems in the IBM 1401, it's basically a matter of figuring out what the overall problem is, and then looking for a signal that indicates the problem. Then you work backwards through the circuitry, probing signals with an oscilloscope until you find something that might be the root of the problem. Then you can swap the potentially-bad card and hopefully it fixes the issue.

Of course, some times this is easy, and some times it is hard. Once you find the bad card, the restoration team likes to fix the bad card rather than just replace it. This can have its own challenges. I spent a long time trying to fix a card from the printer that ended up having a cracked trace that was intermittently bad. All the signals looked good, yet the card didn't work.

For a detailed look at a problem, I wrote a blog post about a core memory problem that turned out to be an inductor that failed open. After fixing that, the computer wouldn't power on. We replaced some weak transistors in the power supply, but that didn't help. Finally we found an undocumented fuse that had blown, probably from one of the boards we swapped. Replacing that got everything running again.
