I see, so among the audience which has been prescreened, life is good. I can see that being nice, if you're in that class of people.

However as someone without a CS degree who is nonetheless able to get jobs as a software engineer because there isn't a process of credentialing, I am glad much of the industry works the way it does.

Remember when the Soviets were on top of the world in the 1950's, largest military in the world, Sputnik, ICBM and nukes, building a Communist Bloc to match NATO and the United States. Fast forward 40 years and it was all gone. Look at China now, gleaming ghost cities that will require massive infrastructure maintaince cost to maintain all funded with massive amounts of debt, a huge population bubble that will drag down China's productive capacity in the comming decades, a world that is more strongly and vocally resisting Chinese influence everyday. What looks powerful and inevitable now only does so because people tend to miss the whole picture.

Not nearly as much. eMMC is designed for these use cases.
Maybe I just don't understand CVEs. I thought it would be published at a third party and linked to glibc, not to a specific distro.
This kind of reaction is what phrases like "it's okay to be white" and "all lives matter" are meant to elicit. It's exactly what trolls want you to do. The other 90% of the population is appalled. Is it not okay to be white? Do some lives not matter?

You're being played.
Boys have far higher suicide rates, we should not overlook helping them perhaps more.
That's risk aversion, and that's why this domain is so unhealthy.
Neither of the religions I mentioned have strong opinions about non-members, they both teach that people are just people and there's really no difference between followers of one faith or another.

There's a pretty stark difference between Sikhism and Christianity, for example. Christians believe everyone who is non-Christian is going to hell for eternal damnation. Sikhs believe that everyone is actually just worshiping the same god by different names, and that it doesn't matter what you worship, just that you're not an evil person.
Apparently I was incorrect in stating that NVMe boot is not yet supported—this week the Pi Foundation added a new docs page[1] explaining the (in beta) process for enabling NVMe boot on the Compute Module 4, which currently requires updating the firmware _and_ bootloader.

Not something to rely on in production yet, and right now it doesn't work with NVMe drives behind a PCIe switch, so this limits some of the utility, but it is good to know it's being worked on!

I don’t have access to a Mac but the command should be faster if you change
the semi-colon to a plus-sign:

find $DIR -type f -name .DS_Store -exec rm {} +

Completing the `-exec` predicate with the plus-sign results in only one fork-and-exec call to the `rm` command (as long as the number of arguments doesn’t exceed the system’s `ARG_MAX` limit), similar to how the `xargs` utility aggregates arguments into sets.

This feature has been in POSIX for many years so I’m guessing it should be
available with the Mac OS X version. If you install GNU find, it also includes a `-delete` action so there’s no need to even call an external command to delete files.
In 2019, I'd argue that was true.
I wouldn't take a short position in a company based on the frequent closure of trivial, money-losing sub-ventures, especially if their main money-making businesses were healthy and growing. It'd be like shorting Apple based on the poor performance of the XServe business in 2009.

Also, it can be really expensive to hold on to a short position for a long time so it might not be a good idea even if there were more substantial reasons to take one.
Rather than having a ridiculous number of computers competing to be the fastest to complete the calculations that underlie blockchain activities (the source of the power usage), blocks are instead given to a single node to complete, and your chances of getting that block are higher the more existing token owners have "staked" with it. PoW: you get blocks because you're working hard; everyone has to work harder to keep up. PoS: you get blocks because your node is popular, within a certain limit (because you give good rewards, because your node is owned by a good cause, w/e).

But this is part of the problem: people passing doom-and-gloom judgment without knowing what is going on. This information is easy to find and people have been screaming it for weeks, but it gets drowned out by the hysteria. Meanwhile, I STILL don't see any new fossil fuel regulations or a GND on Biden's desk, and no one seems to care.
you can go to, say, India today and see the past. Same difference.

Since the Median empire at least, the post was also fairly standard. Vice versa, I am affraid I severely underestimate what pockets of real mastery exist in the world, hidden behind NDAs, paywalls and below the threshold in libraries. I'm normally pretty much satisfied with holding a telecommunication device in my hand.

This includes, hypothetically, the modern knowledge of ancient knowledge. So I don't disagree with you.
You're completely ignoring market inefficiency, as if a distributed desire for something better can simply be summed into creating a viable competitor. The tech equivalent is proclaiming that if you really don't like Google/Apple/Facebook/etc control, go start your own. It completely ignores that doing so takes an extraordinary amount of effort over a long period of time, and any serious competitor is likely to end up bought out by the bigger business before it can affect the market.

I'm generally apprehensive any time someone says "there ought to be a law", but the article lays out a well-sourced case. The economy and big business are directly opposed, and having a distributed economy is much more important for us human beings. Perhaps price controls aren't the answer (and would actually further benefit the large farms that are killing the economy), but something needs to be done unless we want to end up with farming monocultures that will some day decide it's more profitable to not supply us food. The right answer is probably antitrust breakup, and a statutory limiting of mergers going forward.
It's always surprising for foreigners, specially from more financially savvy/developed countries, to see how expensive consumer credit actually is in Mexico. An average APR for credit cards (classic average ones) here would be around 60%. For instance, a large american bank that operates in Mexico (one of the largest here in terms of the market), has an average APR of almost 80% for its "Clasic" credit card. On the other side, "Platinum" credit cards for prime users do not generally go below 35-40% APR
He didn't say it, but I'm pretty sure Graham is talking only about writing non-fiction essays, especially posts in social media. Writing with verve and elan requires variety and timing and imagination, not just clarity and simplicity. Other genres of literature like poetry, fiction, haikus, plays, sonnets, and even longer forms of non-fiction... these are horses best depicted not by monotone but by a rich spectrum of color.

There are people on the left that assume that if you have white skin, then you must act a certain way, and that way of acting is wrong. This is based solely on the person's race, no individual characteristics need be considered.

Well sports news is entertainment. There are specialised sports reporters and sports segments. Sports fans don't usually burn down city blocks when their team loses. Maybe identity politics outrage news is also serving a market demand. However it should be clear if the news is not proactive and tethered to underlying reality, i.e. if police are not actually racist as portrayed by CNN then the net social effect of such fake news is clearly negative. I don't think there is a such thing as fake sports news. There is clearly fake business news. When the media promotes ideas like ubiquitous AI and self driving cars it leads to malinvestment.

Nicely done! At first I thought I was looking at a price chart but I figured that out soon enough.

It's helpful to see this when you go to WSB and see just a wall of GME, which must be on par with SuperBowl-level events by now. Thanks for sharing your work!
I think that kinda proves the parent comments point, since all the apps were re-written for mobile.
yes. Browser, youtube, video calls, docs, games, there isn't much they can't do.
Well, it's not easy. Brand name doesn't get you anything in this department, you have to track down "industrial" SD cards.
As a child, I admit I was wholly taken in by digital IP extremists. The danger is real!

They convinced me that information should be free, that it was my right to download and share anything digital, and that the internet was a borderless utopia of knowledge, limited only by our imaginations.

Now, I see the error of my ways and the harm I, and those who thought like me, caused to content creators and distributors.

I understand that the internet is safer, more secure, and better when suckled through the benevolent teat of large corporations, whose wisdom and foresight allows it to be restricted, filtered, and repackaged into a socially beneficial form.

Don't make the same mistakes I did! Trust in the system.
Thanks for your answer! do you do anything to lower the latency between the user and the client?
For what? They've went above and beyond to prevent US citizens to trade with their main exchange and to only leave a gimped version in the US.
The marginal cost of the stereo is probably over a hundred dollars. The marginal cost of a drink and of a software license is zero. If your customer for some reason can’t use the previous license due to unforeseen circumstances, just give them a new one that they can use. If you lose your license key, most software vendors will give you a new one too.

There's no way to specify what you'll be doing with the container, or how the vuln is triggered, so of course it can't provide useful guidance. The whole CVE report mechanism would have to change to allow low FAR scanning.
There's a good intro here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/blog/a-brief-introd... and afl++'s main documentation is here https://aflplus.plus/ which talks a bit about it.

The goal is to find bugs in code by throwing random data at it, in as an intelligent fashion as possible. You can do that a few ways:

* Give structured data to mutate a bit.

* Just throw random data at it. You could do this with any binary that accepts data either via stdin or from a file.

* Instrument the code, throw random data at it and see what paths of code get triggered and feed that back into the data generator. Drawback is you need to be able to compile all the code involved, so it gets fully instrumented.

AFL/AFL++ sits in the third camp. You compile your code using it, and it then uses information it gets back to figure out ways to trigger code paths, by applying intelligent mutations. It's possible to, e.g. have code that parses a PNG image file, start AFL++ off with no initial data, and it will fairly quickly start producing valid PNG images.

It's a very effective approach for finding bugs. On the AFL++ site there's a small trophy cabinet, and AFL has a larger one (older project) https://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/afl/.

Thats true, which is why most of the left has adopted intersectionality, which says an individual is the sum total of their experiences, rather than this or that identity
I think the point is they say even when it's not beta, it still won't be the real thing, i.e. released version is still level 2. "FSD" is purely marketing.
lol. All of my favourite box lacrosse players had to go play box lacrosse in the US to actually make some money.
You have a National Lacrosse League. Although I just checked, and there are a bunch more Canadian teams in that league than there used to be. At one point in the mid 2000s, 12 of the 14 teams were US based.

If this phrase isn't an example of white privilege so despised here, I don't know what is.

But sure. Let's blame the workers who aren't in charge of policy or decision-making.

I have a cheap plan, $28/mo, with Spectrum that was grandfathered by Time Warner's ELP (Everyday Low Price) plan. That plan started at $15/mo when I first got it, now it's up to $28.

I was on a 50MBit plan with Time Warner for $55/mo, but every year they'd raise my rates, I'd have to call to negotiate with them, and the final time, they said they could lower the new rate from $65 to $60, but that was the best they could do. I told them "How about this: you can lower my rate to $45/mo (because now I'm mad), or I will switch to your ELP plan for $15/mo". The dumbasses let me switch to ELP, which I did. At the time it was 3Mbit down, 1Mbit up, and you know what? I could hardly tell the difference. I had done some research first and found that 720p streaming only requires 1.5-2Mbit/s. And sure enough, Youtube worked fine, Netflix TV streaming worked fine (at 720p), with no streaming pauses. At some point Spectrum upgraded me to 20Mbit down but still 1Mbit up.

I have just 1 person in the house, so these low rates wouldn't work in a family with 3 kids. But what many people don't realize is that short ping times are much more important for decent Internet performance rather than bandwidth. That's why DSL is "damn slow loading", because the ping time (latency) is usually higher.

I can get higher bandwidth now if I want it, either with AT&T fiber (100Mbit symmetric) or Spectrum (100-200Mbit down, up to around 35Mbit up). The problem is, it is expensive compared to what I actually need. The network companies want people to think that they need all this speed, so they keep raising their top speed, eliminating the lower-speed plans, and increasing prices.

Yes, it would be great if everyone had 100Mbit symmetric inexpensively. But forcing everyone into $50/mo or more plans, which I suspect will be the networking companies' goal, is not a good solution. I'd much rather have a 15 down, 5 up plan for $15/mo than a 100/100 plan for $50+/mo.

Strangely, Samsung is toying with the idea of switching to WearOS in their new Galaxy 4 watch. I did buy a Galaxy 3, and even though I own a Galaxy phone, I did not like the experience and eventually returned the watch. I was optimistic about the possibility of a new OS on the 4th gen, until I looked into the current state of WearOS. I would like to imagine that google might use some of their newly acquired talent and IP to revamp WearOS in time for the launch of the Galaxy 4, but I am not holding my breath.

> But on a more theoretical level, OP is right: you _can_ save the tests with, given a powerful enough typesystem.

Yes and no. The trick is building a type system simultaneously strong enough to encode the properties you want, and weak enough that it's statically decidable.

There will always be properties you can't encode in a (useful) type system.

It's a fine line to walk, really. There's an argument to be made that most of the times we don't actually need Turing-completeness, and we'd better off using only types to encode computations, but OTOH I don't really want to think about what coinductive types I must define to solve a problem that could be solved with five lines of javascript instead.
Is it racist to say that western cultures treat their elderly people like crap (relative to the cultural values of eastern cultures where seniors are treated with respect and care and not abandoned to uncaring nurses in a shoebox sized room)?

Is it racist to say that American culture is cold and uncaring and inhuman when someone dies from a curable condition because they are too poor to afford healthcare (compared to a country with a culture of universal heathcare)?

You should perhaps rethink your definition of the word racist, a better accusation would be to say the author mispresents this cultural value or overstates any real cultural difference between western and eastern cultures in terms of the cultural idea of 'fairness vs cheating'. But to call it racist seems a bit like calling all liberals communists or calling all conservatives fascist, no? Painting with too broad a brush. That is to say, it makes sense to ask whether this assertion about these cultures and their ideas around cheating are true, but to disallow any discussion about cultural values and the different ideas of various cultures comes across as a very "the emperor's new clothes' situation" where we aren't allowed to discuss things that are immediately apparent for fear of punishment.

You are avoiding addressing any of the real arguments presented by the author by dismissing their entire piece wholesale with a casual accusation and label that tarnishes their reputation. And doing so in a casual way.

I sort of get what he is trying to say.

A personal anecdote. About 10 years ago, as a single man, I was in a similar position, having saved enough money through work and investments to enjoy "freedom" for a period of many years. And at first it was great, nirvana like even, traveling and dabbling about in various projects. Even though I wasn't driving around fancy cars or living a lavish lifestyle (these things have never really appealed to me anyway), I felt that this must be what it's like to be rich, not to want for anything and indulging every whim and fancy.

However, as time marched on and I checked things off my list, I began to encounter a problem I didn't see coming. I started to feel an ever increasing desire to do something with my time that felt worthwhile, but what should that be? As I found out, it's not so easy to answer. See, at the time, I had removed every hook society had put into me. No bills, no obligations, no responsibilities other than paying rent and feeding myself. I could literally move in any direction. Should I join the fight against climate change? Study robotics and AI? Start a (most assuredly successful /s) SaaS business? The possibilities were endless, and so was the worry that choosing one path meant I could not pursue the others, at least not in a meaningful way. Hence, I ran into a very real and unexpected problem with commitment, that would go on to keep me at unease for a period of several months.

So what did I do? Well, the only thing I could think of to get out of that episode of paralysis by analysis; went back home and started up with some contracting work to pass the time. I met my wife shortly thereafter and not too long after that we welcomed our first child into the world.

Funny thing is I no longer wish for total freedom (well maybe just a day or two here and there), but now that I've been down that path, I've seen how it plays out for me personally. Now I have all the direction I need. Happy trails everyone.
My grandfather had a dairy barn, I'm aware of this. The community around it rebuilt it when it was burned, looked after it when he travelled across the country etc. Was it hard? Certainly. To suggest his (and his families) life was somehow less joyous than a 9-5 hacking l33t code all year is insanity.

Oracle MySQL's official one (Connector/J).

Here's the code from the current version as of this message. It's in mysql-connector-java-8.0.23.jar. Class com.mysql.cj.jdbc.result.ResultSetImpl. Lines 814-818:

@Override
public int getInt(int columnIndex) throws SQLException {
Integer res = getObject(columnIndex, Integer.TYPE);
return res == null ? 0 : res;
}

Notice that the Java guys set the return type to `int` and not `Integer` in the `ResultSet` interface. So, if you call this method after retrieving a null value from a nullable column, you can either throw an exception or return something. I think it's absolutely insane to return a 0 here, but this is the way the MySQL connector has been forever.

EDIT: Postgres does the same thing: https://github.com/pgjdbc/pgjdbc/blob/master/pgjdbc/src/main...

I visited a dairy in Utah a couple of summers ago. 130 cows, 3 employees.

It's a fully automated facility, using equipment from Germany. The cows enter a stall, the machine milks them, gives them a treat, they move on. Employees get a text if a cow hasn't milked itself in a while... usually a tap on their shoulder is enough to get them to walk over to the machine.

Even yet, the person giving the tour said they don't make enough money selling the milk to sustain the operation. They also make high-end cheeses on-prem, and that's what keeps them in the black.
