We're saying approximately the same thing, though I'd argue that your phrasing is slightly more confusing to people that aren't super familiar with Big O notation (and therefore don't exactly understand what is meant by "ignores constant factors" and similar).

Reads from the original two matrices and writes to the final matrix aren't at all the crux of the problem, so I don't think it makes sense to focus on either of those things in your explanation. The goal of the problem is to reduce the number of multiplications which are required to find the values that you then write (of which there will always be n^2 writes). There will also be 2n^2 reads, but likewise that isn't relevant because it's not what you're trying to optimize.

The relevant idea here is that the naive method of multiplying a matrix involves n multiplications for every row-column pair, for a total time complexity of n^3 (n rows, n cols, n multiplications). The goal here is to bring down that third number, from n down to something >= 1, with the holy grail obviously being 1 itself.
We've heard from teams working on non-mobile platforms that they share a lot of these pain points.

There's also the reality that coordinating app releases often includes wrangling dependencies on backend services.

People in Oklahoma are not culturally homogenous, but they are on average more similar to each other than they are to people in New York.

Yes, obviously there are a minority of people in Oklahoma that are stifled by living there. That doesn't mean the solution to that problem is changing their laws. Orders of magnitude more money are spent to change those laws than is spent to simply help people relocate who could otherwise not afford it.

Instead of offering charity to solve a problem you're offering force (and a tyranny of the minority).

As far as mail in voting in your state goes, states have pretty much always set their own election rules. What's actually happening right now is the opposite of what you claim. The Federal government right now is trying to institute universal mail in voting and removing States' ability to set their own election laws.

To do the other things that you're talking about takes 38 out of 50 states to agree. It's a pretty high bar -- such that it's crossed fairly infrequently. And if it does so that might just be what's best for the country as a whole.

I live in New York and am fairly liberal, but this idea that we're going to make the whole country govern the same way is fucking batshit.

It's funny how pushing stringent privacy and security defaults in one domain degrades the privacy and security experience in another domain. My jaded takeaway from the last 5 or so years is that the internet companies (understandably) don't care about non-internet experiences. I empathize with how annoying that reality is because internet technology certainly works locally if you configure everything correctly.. just not how things work by default.

The actual problem though is fascinating and there is a ton to unpack. For one, the internet was always supposed to be zero-trust. Security-by-NAT was an accident not a feature. And IPv6 enshrines this reality (and it breaks my heart when I see tech companies trying to make IPv6 work like IPv4 in the home). The privacy problem is not really an issue if everything is appropriately firewalled and communicating securely. And as you mention, half the IoT things out there only use a central server to get around what is ultimately a problem NAT introduced: devices don't have public IPs and aren't 1st class internet citizens.

Here's how it's supposed to work:

Your ISP delegates you an IPv6 prefix. As the gateway to your home site, your router advertises the public prefix, as well as a ULA prefix to your home devices. Devices construct both permanent and temporary IP addresses from the public and universal local prefixes (at this point a device that needs public internet access has 4 IP addresses). That's just IPv6 so far but the point is that devices have multiple addresses, ones for public communication and ones for local communication.

Once you have the setup above you can do this:

Your ISP provides you a domain (optionally you purchase your own vanity domain, of course) and their nameservers delegate to your gateway device (or possibly some other one, but conveniently your gateway) as the nameserver for your home site. After a device comes online it dynamically registers its desired hostname with gateway, which will now respond to DNS queries with its address. The gateway should also serve PTR and SRV records for your site unicast DNS-SD style. Your nameserver can serve the public record if the request comes from a public IP and the ULA record if the request comes from that prefix. All public traffic stays public and all local traffic stays local.

Since your devices now are publicly routable, they get certs using ACME. If you want to run local ACME on your ULA network, go for it, but you'll continue to run into the original problem that browsers aren't configured to use your local CA by default and getting users to bootstrap that is essentially impossible. In that vein I do wish there was a way to start a browser window for "local" browsing where it only trust one CA (your local one) and thus isn't mixing public and local security domain concerns.

If devices don't want to communicate on the public internet because that's a privacy or security concern, then they simply don't provision themselves a public-prefixed address or add a public DNS entry, etc.

In short, NAT killed the internet and we're still recovering from it.

This is a super cool article and it’s funny to me how much time was spent detailing the features of the watch (suspiciously similar to a smartphone’s) and how some of the commentary is steeped in 2018 anti social media sentiments that have since become tropes in themselves.

Examples like posting pictures of meals and the idea that people use social media to fool people into thinking your life is exciting. I think the types of people interested in making these posts realize that the social media mainstream considers it passé at this point.
Channels are not IPC -- they're a libthread API that stays within a shared-memory thread group.

There are few magic kernel devices that don't act like 9p, like '#s' which implements fd passing on a single node. And the VGA drivers expose a special memory segment on PCs to enable configuring VGA devices.

But the exceptions are very few and far in between, and affect very few programs.

> So it's unclear what benefit is being provided by 9p here.

A uniform and simple API for interacting with out-of-process resources that can be implemented in a few hundred lines of code.
>it doesn't show that a 9 volt battery used in the way described by the article is dangerous.

Then again, it doesn't have to show that - since the person in the article didn't come to use it in "that way" after serious study, research and precautions, but by assuming its harmeless in general and using it in an ad-hoc manner.

They could quite easily, with the same assumption, which is what the parent warns against, use it in a dangerous way.
> From where Kroah-Hartman sits, "it will all come down to how well the interaction between the kernel core structures and lifetime rules that are written in C can be mapped into Rust structures and lifetime rules for drivers in Rust to be able to use them properly. That's going to take a lot of careful work by the developers wanting to hook this all up and I wish them the best of luck."

It's really interesting that any C code already has to have a memory management ownership model, and the consistency of that model makes Rustification easy / hard.

I think many people don't care about Reddit at all and perceive these discussions as off topic and uninteresting. There are better spaces to discuss those, such as /r/SubredditDrama/.

This is probably depending on the environment. Corporate environments would move very slow, open source kind of fast and SMB/SME somewhere in the middle. All of them plagued by cargoculting, but especially average performing SMB/SME are the most guilty, and also where I've seen the most "Hey, we should probably rewrite this service in Rust because it'll be better for sure" since some years back.

This is such a silly and mundane bit of pedantry you're harping on here. Of course there are emotional factors in price discovery-- it happens all the time, and is a completely natural and rational part of the free market.

Any small or independent contractor in any business will eventually have a blacklist, or a list of troublesome customers who get charged extra. Most of my contractors charge me less because they like me (and I pay on time). My HVAC contractor charges a particular customer double just because the customer is a rich entitled asshole; the contractor has decided that it's only worth dealing with the man's unpleasantness if there's more money to be made. Apparently the man has been blacklisted by other HVAC companies, so he might be in a tight spot, but whatever the reason, he ends up paying a lot more money for the same service.

This is a completely market-based mechanism: the troublesome customer has limited options (in this case, maybe only one option), and is thus obviously disadvantaged in negotiating price. Regardless of the myriad motivations involved in price discovery, it all leads to the same place: if the price wasn't worth the service the customer was to receive, they would not have paid it.

Honestly, this isn't mysterious or profound. It's economics 101.

That's a frankly insane way to write parallel programs. Parallel evaluation is about maximum utilization of system resources balanced against the inherent overhead of synchronization/spawning/joining.

It has nothing to do with code organization.

> If you have an "innately parallel problem" but do NOT care about performance, just pthread_create() / pthread_join() or fork()/wait() and be done with it.

No, just do it in serial. It's easier to read and debug. If you do care about performance and the tasks vastly dominate the time of spawning/joining, then fork/join. It's slightly harder to read and much more difficult to debug, but an order of magnitude faster for a large number of problems.

It should also be noted that promises/futures are close cousins of this model, and their implementation is significantly more complex than pthread_create/pthread_join (but APIs are much nicer, imo, since they do the imperative/cooperative transformation for you).

I stopped using Facebook a year ago. Deleted the user. I created a fresh one to be able to follow my kids in daycare which can't be used for much else because I don't want to add more than one friend. This is priceless. I'm not allowed to browse more FB unless I add more friends. This is kind of asshole behaviour. What if I don't have more than one friend? Fuck you Facebook.

I disabled all kinds of popups and notifications. I still use Jodel which is fun and anonymous (as much as anything these days).

> Which liability? In which juridiction?

Both workplace environment (and, yes, not protecting from hostile environment on protected characteristics created by customers, suppliers, or other business contacts can be a source of liability) liability where she is currently employed by Reddit (which is in the US; I’m not sure which state, but that’s not super important since gender identity is federally protected within statutory protection of sex under the Bostock v. Clayton County decision), and, as far as anything potentially falls into the realm of defamatory fact claims, libel liability in any jurisdiction in which Knight/Challenor has defensible reputation interests; notably, this includes the UK, which has neither a NY Times v. Sullivan-style high bar for defamation liability when the subject is a public figure nor CDA Section 230-style protection of online platforms from being treated as a publisher of libels submitted by users.

I don't think you need a smartphone and social media to do any of the above listed tasks. The author's qualm isn't with having an online presence, or being tapped into modern society, it's having that modern society constantly tapping you on the shoulder with a bombardment of notifications and algorithms designed specifically to get you hooked.

I think you can easily travel, have a wide network of far flung friends, be involved in niche hobbies, look for a new job, and keep up with modern trends & cultures - all without a smart phone and social media. If you have a laptop & internet connection - you're good to go! This allows you to tap in when you want on your own terms instead of the other way around.
