That depends largely on the driver. It's not a guarantee but I've seen pretty solid perf wins on the drivers that support it.

From a hardware perspective just about every Android SoC minus a few odd ones have unified memory so there's really no reason for them to take a lock, at least for the heavy part of the operations that copy the texture and tile/swizzle.
Yeah, a more apt term would be “flattening” or something.
Move prisoners out into the wilderness so it's even harder for them to maintain social (familial) connections they will rely on once they leave the prison system.

In an ideal world, maybe what you describe would work. In the punitive and unfair justice system that the US runs, you're just making prisoners' lives worse.
I believe the tracking is intentional; I also believe that sending the filenames as part of that is a dumb mistake.
SpaceX doesn't have the domain knowledge of a defense prime to be able to really compete with them, at least certainly not today.

Drones, missiles, fighter planes are chock full of proprietary software developed by the primes and hardware developed either by themselves or often Tier 2 or Tier 3 suppliers. Replicating that isn't done overnight and would be an immensely challenging uphill battle against entrenched corporations with decades of experience and very close ties with Washington, which makes competing with NASA look like a walk in the park.

SpaceX would need to hire former lobbyists, managers and engineers from primes and their suppliers and play a really long game to try to get there. Doesn't seem feasible in less than 10 years and even that is an outrageously optimistic timeline.
The long term damage to those who catch it seems high in many cases including the young. The majority of people getting covid are young so the impact is not understood and not nil.

I'm not sure the young are making anywhere near same sacrifice compared to the war effort in terms of lives and limbs and post war mental effects.

The really young are the future. Anyone in there late teens and 20s is past that point. The work from home training/conditioning the younger generation received will payoff when they reach 20. While your generation may struggle with the isolation by preparing the next generation those issues will disappear reaping larger economic benefits.

In terms of praise, remember all age groups are staying home. Appreciation should first be given to the soldiers (nurses,people who put themselves in danger) but appreciation should be given to everyone who stayed at home, everyone who convinced someone stop doing something that would spread this and everyone who did all they could to stop the spread.

All organizations involve a certain pooling of individual interest for collective gain, whether that's the profit of the corporations owners and employees (which may overlap) or some altruistic purpose in the case of nonprofit corporations. And these are just two among many examples.

While I thought this Guardian article was rather hyperbolic and tells us more about the author's personal views than about whales, it seems to me that you're taking the same approach from something like an objectivist standpoint.

Perhaps it would be more insightful to look at collectivism vs individualism as a continuum rather than a binary choice.

Maybe 15 years ago, Georgia Tech rolled out a pretty great homework copy detector for the Java kids. The guy who wrote it was well aware that students knew to change variable names and such, so he just had it compare generated byte code instead. It caught something like 200 cheaters. It was a huge problem because Tech really, really didn't want to just expel or fail everyone like the academic rules required, so they created a sort of case-by-case comparison and punished students to various lesser degrees based on some rubric or other.

Anyway, the next year they adjusted by saying "it's absolutely fine to collaborate on homework and projects. Go nuts. Copy off each other all you want. Also, homework is just 25% of your grade now, quizzes and exams are everything." This made for pretty terrifying quizzes, but things worked out for everybody (except folks with a lot of test anxiety) because folks who actually did the homework tended to be the ones that did well on exams anyway.
Where can I find a source for this? This is new information to me, and searching "covid ventilator" is just bringing up the same studies about how patients who get ventilated have higher mortality, which isn't saying the same thing.

Take agriculture - you are running a large farm which is hundreds to thousands of acres. Do you run experiments with soil, seeds, fertilizer, crop rotation schemes to increase yield? No, that would be silly, take forever and make you poorer and perhaps no wiser. Instead, you hire a "expert" who has done it before and knows the "best practices".
Here's the relevant paragraph from The Folly and the Glory. It does not provide a supporting citation for the $2T claim, as far as I can tell.

> Kohl would shoulder the lion’s share of the costs for extracting 546,000 Red Army troops from Germany—an exodus requiring fifty troop trains a day, fifty-five cars each, for more than three years—and building bases to house them once they were home. The immediate cost of the buyout, or the bribe, was measured in tens of billions, then hundreds, a spectacular use of economic power in political warfare. Its immensity matched the importance of the moment. Over time, *the bill for unification would come to more than two trillion dollars.*

The Sokal hoax (and the sequel linked by the commenter below) exposes the negligence of mostly America-centric journals centered in sexuality/race/identity. But that really doesn’t represent the entirety of continental philosophy, and that shouldn’t be an excuse to ditch your education on humanities as a whole.

There’s a lot of bullshit papers in every field (including computer science) now, due to the corporatization of universities and its chase for numerical metrics. It’s our job as independent thinkers to wade through the bullshit, find the hidden gems, and arrive at our own conclusions. My current take is that if you’re actually trying to find some serious philosophy, don’t look at journal papers but actual full books by philosophers (which is becoming rarer and rarer due to the incentives to pump out high-metric papers).
I'd actually like to for privacy reasons, but until someone else produces a Mac browser that has live captioning support or Apple adds it at the system level, that's going to be hard to do... quick, easy captioning is a killer feature for me. :(

I actually sort of agree with retiring master and slave because they were just not good descriptive names. Primary and secondary are more accurate descriptions.

But I am still struggling to see an issue with blacklist and whitelist as they actually don’t seem to have anything to do with race, nor have they ever. They have more to do with darkness and light, or death, etc. Like something being a black box just has no relation whatsoever to race.

And if we start to change words that demonstrably have nothing to do with race, then anything is fair game. And that’s just a very unnerving place to be.

We should follow the paper trail of independent tanker-trailers leaving solar manufacturing plants in California. One driver has been heard to claim that he dumped cadmium-tainted water at the roadside culvert somewhere in Rhodes Island then went back to California for more pickup.

So glad that solar manufacturing has stopped, at least in California; but the environmental damage has probably been done across the country.
>Is your comment different than saying "some ideas are catchier than others"?

No, and that's the whole point.

Since "some ideas are catchier than others", ideas are superset of memes.

Memes being, precisely, the ideas with higher virality.

Ideas with low or zero virality are not memes.

How does it make it sound worse?

As I read it, he is saying:

Original quote: "I am skeptical about <widely believed thing".

Added context: "because <the arguments people present to not actually address the issue in question>"

The added context moves him even further away from saying anything about pedophilia itself, and further into saying stuff about other people who are saying something about pedophilia.

This article isn’t all bad, but it’s not particularly high quality either.

<img src=”baby_elephants.png” alt=”A group of two baby elephants walking behind their mom in a open field.”>

… followed immediately by a demonstration baby elephant image with empty alt text (which in a case like this is worse than no alt attribute, because it tells accessibility tech that the image is purely decorative and should not be announced).

(Note also the use of ” instead of ".)

This is not encouraging.

> You can add a landmark by using the role attribute. Some examples of landmarks are banner, form, and search. Something to note is that you should only place the role attribute on elements like <div> and <span>, do not place on elements that have semantic meaning like a <ul> or <p>.

There is nothing wrong with overriding the role of an element with semantics; it purely comes down to whether you do it correctly. And the thing that they don’t mention here is that the converse applies at least as much: if there’s a built-in element with your desired semantics, you should use that instead of a role, so the example is a bad example: its <div role="navigation"> should be <nav>.
My greatest fear in this whole thing is precedent. It's easy to sell a new "Once-In-A-Century Event" every couple of years. If we burnt the whole world's goodwill on this disease, and a more devastating one comes along, what are we going to do?
When they’ve cut during the day they disrupt the whole economy, as well as their own communications. Great background here: https://www.newyorker.com/tech/annals-of-technology/in-myanm...
They could maybe salvage goodwill with genuine corporate soul-searching that ends up asserting/reasserting values -- and leads them to focus on providing trustworthy service to their users, and conspicuously away from some "tech" industry norms of selling out one's users.

As a provider of a paid service, it seems like they're in a better position to take the high road than a lot of tech companies are, but they have to decide that's who they are, and be clear they mean it.

Basic compartmentalization. If i have ideological goals A, B, C, then i can work on goal A with people who are indifferent or against B, C, and also work on goal B with people who are indifferent or against A, C, instead of trying to find people in intersection of A, B, C.
>The strawman here is the fallacy that SOLID (SRtC) is clearly not saying that a software, composed of "code", should only do one thing. By that reasoning, SOLID rules out any software that provide multiple capabilities. Your editor, for example, has multiple capabilities. It can save. It can highlight. It can cut. It can paste.

That's not what TFA says here. It doesn't claim that SOLID says that software as in 'a full program' should do one thing.

It just says that SOLID says that a piece of code (as in a function or a class) should do one thing, which SOLID does say, and which the author of TFA disagrees with.

Perhaps the use of the word "code" (or "non-trivial code") is confusing, but the author doesn't imply the whole program with that, but the same as SOLID does (a unit of code):

"Code should fit in your head at any level of granularity, whether it is at method/function level, class/module level, components made up of classes, or entire distributed applications".

I have also added hard drop to NES Tetris. Heh. What are the odds?

This hack strays further away from vanilla NES Tetris though and contains further speed, control and graphics modifications; and lacks that fancy looking ghost piece.

https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/4973/

My approach of hard drop implementation was different, honestly i just looped the piece down routine until it hit the ground. His approach breaks the scoring system though, mine doesn't =p

Anyway, this was a great article! Nice rundown of the NES architecture.

At least John Cleese clearly mentions "I have a bridge to sell you" in the video in his tweet.

That saying is a reference to the scams of George C. Parker who "sold" the Brooklyn Bridge a number of times to gullible people, and from the context of the video it is clear he is referring to that.
Easy money corrupts people?

When there's A LOT of cash flowing around, you're bound to get some fortune seekers here and there.

And it is in the nature of SV to invest early on in companies and industry which might be worth billions 5-10-15 years down the road, even if the concepts are far fetched.

Tbh, I think some investors are more than willing to suspend their disbelief, whether it is the tech itself, or the initial business models. If enough people hop on the band-wagon, and you're the early bird out - you could still make money on something wildly unfeasible idea.

In any case, that kind of culture and environment will surely attract certain people. Or transform people.

I believe they were called Express Logic. They were a real-time OS vendor based in (IIRC) San Diego. We used their OS, and (perhaps because it was stable) let our support contract lapse. Then we found a bug in the OS. We called them and asked if they could fix it, and oh by the way, our support has lapsed. They said, "Doesn't matter. We wrote it, we'll fix it." They didn't even ask us to renew our support contract first. They just fixed it, for free, for a customer that was out of support.

Microsoft bought them. I don't have any data on whether the insanely helpful support approach is still in effect.
The tweet says "I even opted out of their tracking widget thing!" and yet it continues tracking. Major mess up.
It is forcing the engine to do more work though, because it demands a distinct result set, so it adds extra nodes to the plan to remove duplicates. If you know your query doesn't have duplicates, it's much smarter to not add an extra whole sort/distinct when totally unnecessary for correct results.
Isn’t your second one just a simple ternary macro to check if null and return if so?
To add, I think we should leave it to the machines to start indexing podcasts automatically. They're some of the easiest mediums for speech recognition and Google has been indexing YouTube transcripts for a few years now.
A dumb mistake that leaks private information to a third party seems like good reason not to trust or use their service. For me, the idealogue, the fact they're sending any tracking data from the dash to Facebook is enough reason.

I don’t want to live in a society that has abolished police and prisons.
