When you enabled the Live Caption (similarly to how folks told you to disable it --- on my phone it was turned off by default) the following informational screen should have been displayed:

"Live Caption detects speech on your device and automatically generates captions.

When speech is captioned, this feature uses additional battery. All audio and captions are processed locally and never leave the device. Currently available in English only."

So note that Google does not get a copy of the audio stream. It stays local to your device only. I don't know about you, but seems like a really handy feature to me, especially for those who might have hearing difficulties.
I like you. Including your username. I'm surprised your comments aren't down voted more. They're honest. People don't seem to like that these days.
This is not really new, it's because of the letter at the end of the product name. Traditionally Ks are power hungry overclockable chips while F are more energy-conscious.

EDIT: Never mind I just confirmed your point. T are the energy-conscious ones, not sure what F are. This is all very confusing.
News articles have came out saying that Jeff Bezos was responsible for those actions. But, even if they weren't, you're saying the CEO should be rewarded with billions of dollars for the actions of the leaders under them, but carry none of the blame for those acts as well?

In corporate America, responsibility is on senior leadership, and the CEO is at the top of that chain. If they want to have the W's of that system, they get to take the L's too.

I can't help but feel like having it this way is breaking one of the huge reasons that made computers so absurdly exciting and enticing in the past.

The fact that there was this wide open field, where, sure, maybe you paid Microsoft for the OS, but then the rest was up to you. Trade shareware CDs, install stuff from the internet, type in code from a book or whatever, it felt like an infinite open field of possibilities.

I guess it's normal that the exciting frontier shifts around, but I really can't believe that it's somehow a good thing in this case.

That's not true at all. You can perform lots of transactions over lightning, and settle with a single on chain transaction. The money clears instantly, and is not at risk, even if you keep the funds on layer 2.
yeah running 1 or 2 of your own Tor nodes seems to be pretty ideal. One of which being an exit node. Connecting to that is the move.

providing an obfs4 bridge seems good too

but I really wish there was a docker container for all this, the documentation is all over the place, most of it is just on forums that can only be accessed on Tor and those forums have unreliable uptime, it is really discouraging but it seems like there are some very competent people that are so comfortable doing this that one could just assume they all have this greater level of OPSEC and infrastructure
What do you suggest for someone leaning on an EdgeRouter Lite (with EdgeOS v1.10.11, staying far away from v2.x) and a Unifi UAP-AC-PRO access point?

The router will probably reliably carry me until saturating 1Gbps becomes a daily occurrence and the access point will be retired when WiFi 6E comes around (assuming Ubiquiti's WiFi 6E access points aren't required to connect to the cloud.)
Never thought you could actually start planning your performance budget with something as small as favicons.

Developers are whining about the bundle size of their JS files, scratching their heads just to shave off a few kb here and there and, at the same time, some designer comes up with a half a MB Favicon and calls it a day.
I watched sports then and watch them now.

I just love to see awesome athletes who have honed their bodies and reflexes to such a crazy degree do things I could never do.

The interjection of social justice issues hasn’t yet taken anything away from the joy of the game from what I’ve seen. Kneeling for the anthem, wearing armbands with messages doesn’t change any of that.

If they start saying we need more diversity in sports and pay athletes who aren’t the best because of their skin color or sexual orientation I’d be annoyed. If someone is gay or straight or white or black and is the best at his position but he doesn’t get a job because of his orientation or skin color then I’ll stop watching.

The only thing I hate is how many athletes who have such short 3 year windows have half their income taxed for those three years then go on to work “normal” jobs for the next 30 years, and someone who ultimately made the same income over 30 years at a high paying “normal” job got taxed so much less over the same time span.
Having read dispassionate descriptions of some of the scenes and plot lines in that series, i.e. what occurred rather than someone's opinion about it, the controversy makes total sense to me. The fact that other series are worse is pretty troubling, too. Child sexual abuse shouldn't be exploited for the excitement of those who want to harm them.

That's awfully convenient for the company offering those products, but I want to control what happens on my network, even if that's inconvenient for some hardware vendor.

Case studies, focus groups, surveys and interviews are great ways to find the unknown unknowns. Of course, you need to pay people to participate in them, and then you need to pay expensive employees to conduct, collect and analyze the results.

It's often just cheaper to spy on customers, though, and pretend that there is no other possible way to conduct business.
It's about silicone lottery. They could ignore best chips and sell them along bad chips at the same price. Or they could market best chips as another product with a higher price. And that's the whole spectrum.

I have been incredibly skeptical of frequency numbers. Case in point, the AMD FX-9590 had a 4.7 GHz base an 5.0 GHz boost back in 2013 [0]; and the Ryzen 9 5950x has a 3.4 GHz base an 4.9 GHz boost [1].

To me, the frequency has become a "blob". It means nothing. If anything, I see more frequency and I think more power draw and less stability.

Real performance is a function of IPC and frequency and that is the only thing that really matters.

Most people start using Result/Either[0] when they need to define a reason for a value being missing. Then you can decide how to handle arbitrarily different cases of failure with pattern matching, or handle them all the same. The error types themselves are not standardized as far as I know, but I'm not sure how useful it is to standardize these differences at the language or standard library level. Is the theory that people don't use the Result type correctly as is?

IIRC 50% (60%) was the rate for the app distributor I used for selling my PalmOS app. It was digital download, too.

For the Apple case: access to the walled garden is the majority of the benefit. But still, setting up payments, customer service, chargebacks, fees, etc., is nice to have taken care of. 30% nice? Who knows. But more than just the raw payment processor overhead, surely.

AFAIK physical boxes are way above 50%.

This is precisely why I always choose to use the mobile version of a site/app rather than the app if it's available.

Safari has great adblocking. Also, the mobile version of a site is typically a superior UX compared to apps because the controls are consistent. It's usually faster, and best of all, it's MUCH easier to block all of the tracking.
The BeagleBoneBlack has eMMC and an SD card and a hardware switch to force it to boot off the SD card. Plus, flash is rarely really bricked, you can just hook it up to an SPI bus...
> Yes, but you are trading amazing performance in the average case against awful performance in the degenerate case. Poor hash functions or adversarial input could cause congestion in parts of the hash table.

It is not just me. As I said, most high-performance hash tables these days (absl, F14, and all robin hood implementations) use linear probing. Providing a proper default hash function avoids most worse cases in practice. In addition, the hash library can use a secondary hash function [1] which makes the library much more robust to bad hash functions such as the identity hash function.

Ant Group's Resource Allocation System has scaled over 6000 cores
Oh yes, the reputation of the learning curve precedes it. But the book helped me get started and, as is often the case with complex things, once you've dealt with it a bit, the experience wasn't as bad as I feared.
Having the chassis of the car be the battery seems problematic. Once the battery is worn out the whole car must be disposed of.
The reason why Apple doesn't do fractional scaling is rounding errors: if you have a design that's aligned to the pixel grid at 1x, it's only guaranteed to remain aligned to that grid if you scale by other integers. If you aren't on the pixel grid, then the layout engine has to round sizes up or down to fit, which is dangerous. You're adding error to layout and then multiplying it by the number of elements being sized.

This gets particularly bad on the web, where a number of different tricks have been employed by browser vendors over the years to avoid rounding errors (see https://www.palantir.net/blog/responsive-design-s-dirty-litt...). If you have, say, a float-column layout with percentage widths, then rounding errors can easily wind up making things either not line up or, worse, actually overflow their containers for no reason, breaking the layout. Throwing non-integer scaling into the mix makes this even worse.

Of course, this is a tractable problem, but it was much easier for Apple to just render-and-downscale from the nearest whole-number factor instead of making the lives of any developer with custom layout engines that much harder.

I don't think that it is a solvable problem if the economics stay the same.

SolarWinds is actually trading almost $2/share more than it did 1 year ago today ($15.67 v $17.23). Sure, it is down from its 52 week high ($24.34).

I would argue that SolarWinds should not be allowed to be in business in its current form, considering what a threat they have been to themselves and others in their mis-handling their software practices and subsequent breach. If an individual did what they did as an employee of the government, they would currently be in jail.

It is probably one of the most impactful national security events in our lifetimes and the impact of this event will be felt in certain areas for years or even decades.

"Advanced Go Concurrency Patterns" by Sameer Ajmani explained this back on 2013.
> In practice, if a name has a common pronunciation within English, you show respect by using that pronunciation when speaking to native English speakers.

Here's how I read this. "We as an English speaking group will continue to not make an attempt to pronounce it right even if we can. Once we don't we will have a common pronunciation that doesn't fit the original one. Once it becomes common, we will get offended if it is not pronounced in the common way that we as a group chose to actively ignore in the first place. If the original speakers insist, we will call them pretentious."
There's an Ultra Wideband radio in the iPhone 11 and newer that isn't legal to use in all countries. Apple uses a location request sometimes just to determine if the device can legally run that radio or not.
I'm not trying to conceal my opinions though, I'm actually undecided on the matter.
An anecdote:
I prepared a little bit with Hackerrank for my Google interview (in Oct 2018) and never once encountered a problem where a linked list would be remotely useful. I also watched the YT video about why LL are useless in practice in most cases (cache locality etc) and I therefore eliminated them +- completely from my "toolset" (despite being actually pretty comfortable with them (spent a lot of time implementing sort algorithms on single & double linked lists).

Then, one of the interviews had some problem about a scenario that wasn't actually that far away from something one could encounter in real life and the optimal solution (by far) was with a simple linked list.

I completely blew it. I devised some convoluted MinHeap solution with Log(n) that was confusing as hell and my interviewer was wondering why he's wasting his time (he didn't tell but it was my impression). In the last few seconds he said something like "do you know a data structure with cheap inserts at the end and start" and everything was clear (but to late).

No hard feelings, wouldn't have hired myself after that performance as well.
So? The parent suggested to store the waste in place, not a mile deep in some central, well protected mine. And that would be stupid indeed.

F means it lacks an IGP. in a certain sense you were right; the F variant sacrifices frequency for lower TDP vs a K variant. but there are also KF parts that are unlocked and also lack an IGP. and of course there's a different system entirely for laptop parts.
It goes back much further than that—the mobile phone 'app' market was a lot worse (50%? And not a fun developer process) and was pretty poorly saturated by Java-based games and lightweight apps.

It all depends on what software / 'app' stores we're comparing to.

The best intro really is to buy some of their hardware and play around with it. Their routers and APs are all based on the same basic RouterBOARD hardware and run the same RouterOS. The specs for each device is pretty well laid out on their site, but you do have to read through a few product pages to find exactly what you're looking for.

I would start with a hAP ac², a wireless router that is approximately the equivalent of their hEX Ethernet router plus a dual-band AP (cAP/wAP ac). It's a great standalone device and less than $70, or you could get the individual devices for a bit more flexibility.

Avoid the models labeled "lite", those are low-cost versions with lower routing speeds and 2.4GHz WLAN only.

For management you can obviously configure each device separately, or you can use CAPsMAN where one device acts as the controller and handles all configuration. It's not as slick as Ubiquiti, but it works.

What opinion about Clojure?! Where? You're jumping to conclusions without any basis, while trying to caution others not to jump to conclusions?

I'm talking about the general ease of use of features in programming languages. If you need to code in a particular way to use a feature, then it's harder to use than if you didn't have to do this. Is that wrong? Could you provide any argument on why is it wrong? And yes, I use Clojure's REPL as an example, and give Erlang as a counterexample. Do you know Erlang? Are you able to compare? If yes, why don't you write about how you see that comparison?

Instead of, you know, childishly fixating on things I never said. For your information, I do know more than "next to nothing" about Clojure. But you won't believe me either way, will you?
Why wouldn't they at least point the NFT at a hash of the image, or an ipfs link? You still have the issue of the file disappearing because no one is hosting it, but at least no one could swap out the content..
