I don't think they have to fulfill the call. I can block a number from calling me - and they don't have to let the call go through. They don't have to let folks harass.

It isn't even a technical issue: "mobile companies can in fact block most robocalls but choose not to, in large part because it costs money to do so and at the same time they make money from those calls." (from the article).

In other words, they can still allow me to choose to block those calls, but it seems they only really offer it to non-prepaid customers, charge a fee for the service, and don't exactly advertise that they have the ability.
It is pretty crazy that simple providing an install link means, as you're the top choice in a duopoly, that you demand 30% of gross. Surely the costs to Apple is <<1% ?

A few years ago I did similar comparison but in context of Node.js and sans manual optimizations: https://github.com/zandaqo/iswasmfast

In my work, I have come to conclusion that it seldom pays off to go "native" when working with Node.js. More often than not, rewriting some computationally heavy code in C and sticking it as a native module yielded marginally better results when compared with properly optimized js code. Though, that doesn't negate other advantages of using said technologies: predictable performance from the start and re-using existing code base.
Important point on usability for people who may have overlooked this, like me.
No, vaccines effectiveness can be substantially lower than 100%, so if you're vaccinated, depending on the vaccine type, you still might not be protected. It's much like the normal vaccines for the normal diseases, you don't always know if you're fully protected yourself so you end up relying on other people being vaccinated too.

Looking at the C++ code, it seems like you could use std::push_heap/pop_heap to implement your binary heap. The code would be simpler, and there is a chance it could be faster since a lot of the standard library algorithms are very heavily optimized.

> pg up/down home end on dedicated keys at least

You know, I thought that that would bother me on a keyboard. However, it turned out that having PgUp/PgDn/Home/End on Fn+arrow keys, after getting used to it, is a speed improvement (at least for me). I don't have to move my hand as much. In fact, I liked so much that I have Alt+Left/Right arrow mapped as Home/End in AHK (on normal keyboards).
Text on the website is a combination of SVGs and real characters which are then transformed using CSS. Assets are from /assets/doodles.json which contains information on how they can displayed and animated on a canvas through WebGL using a custom engine from /assets/js/engine.min.js.
The title is hugely misleading though - the j model documentation was always very specific that they can't support btrfs and you could never initialize the array into that mode.
(At least it was when I was buying my Synology - and opted to + model which specifically supports it. This is the list devices Syno has with btrfs support: https://www.synology.com/en-global/knowledgebase/DSM/tutoria...)

The RAID array had to be moved from another device to work. Running your RAID array on a device that explicitly doesn't support it feels like a really risky behaviour.
How much time have you spent reading aloud to your kid?

Does the kid have the same trouble following material heard read aloud that they have for material they are reading themselves?

* * *

Anecdotally the times in the past when I would forget material I was reading came from either being profoundly sleep deprived (e.g. pulling an all-nighter in college) or mentally highly engaged with some other idea/problem and therefore extremely distracted while trying to read.

More recently (I have a 4-year-old) I have been doing lots of reading of kids books, and have developed the new ability to read a familiar (or unfamiliar but simple) picture book aloud including funny voices for all of the characters etc. from start to finish, while working on an unrelated problem in my head, and end up with no memory of what I read in the picture book or what happened.

Reading picture books is apparently (sometimes) now separate enough from my conscious attention that the effect is almost like short-term memory loss.

Your argument basically boils down to "If you write fast C++ it will be fast", which is true. But a significant fraction of code out there is not fast C++ written by experts to be fast.

This is different than "Java will be faster than C++ because of HotSpot" arguments, because java is competing with C++. This is not a competition between JS and native C++, it's a competition between JS and WASM.

Valve fixed the cheating problem for me with the latest operation. In “Broken Fang Premier” mode with high trust-factor, I would get back to back games with friendly players, none of whom appeared to be cheating.

Now they have made that mode free and it’s garbage once again. Oh well, it was great while it lasted...

I tried Face It to escape this, but it was even more toxic than match-making. No obvious hackers though.
They have it customized, they have also btrfs integrated with md, which is not in the stock kernel, but these are runtime things. Not to say there are not a ways to shoot yourself in the foot (e.g. being careful when creating ext4 volume with external machine, target nas might have older kernel that doesn't support half of the newer ext4 features and 64 bits).

I never had any problem with thermals or psu, but I've heard other people had psu problems.
Exchanges go down for a reason. If you don't want to be in it, you put yourself outside of the national economic scheme.

I can see the reason why, but if everybody does the same then the whole economy goes "informal" and you deprive the state from any income.

That what is happening in most West African countries (95% of the economy is in the "informal") and for exactly the same reasons (No trust in the state and want to avoid taxes. And note that money devaluation because of money printing is another form of taxation, with delaying time effects.)

And the net effect in those African countries is that you cannot even enforce the law, there isn't at all any budget for anything. If you're robbed then you will have to pay the police yourself in order to have them do the work to catch the culprit and find your stolen goods.

This is certainly true for client-side anti-cheat, but there's little reason server-side anti-cheat can't work just as well. They've been incredibly successful in chess and (from what I've heard) virtual cycling. These are generally based on statistics and while they can't catch the very subtle cheaters those generally aren't a problem outside of actual tournaments.
Well, maybe true. Depends on what the realtor charges for it then.
It is not strictly speaking a bug, since it works as intended. But it is clearly a counter-intuitive behavior and could be improved. Making 0xfor a syntax error would definitely be an improvement.

But requiring whitespace between all tokens is not an acceptable solution, since "2+2" should work. Always equiring whitespace between alphanumerical characters in different tokens would make sense.
BTC like fiat money is not backed by anything. Anyone claiming otherwise just show they haven't got a clue what "backed" means.

Articles on procrastination have a similar problem and I would tell you exactly what that problem was but I never finish reading the articles...
A new syscall would definitely be a better engineered way of doing things but pragmatically I'm unlikely to convince Linux, let alone Apple and the BSDs that they should all introduce this new syscall when there isn't a wealth of software that would use it. And I'm definitely not going to get any software written for it if there isn't a syscall for developers to code against. And that's before I've even addressed the problem that most people are happy enough with bash/zsh that any new shell is already fighting an uphill battle for adoption.

So with those points in mind I think this is one of those cases where worse is better. But kludging things a little it means I can have greater ownership of development which means I can actually deliver something that people can use right now. If it gains popularity then maybe I'd have more clout to push through new syscalls, but I certainly wouldn't have that with "only" 500 Github stars :)

> Well, that's kind of my point: you could output more than curses interface if you wanted, something like an xml ui file, or a list of commands on a side channel. But I make no judgement on this: it was just to illustrate what kind use-cases this would enable.

You can do that with my shell right now. The issue is you'd have to write an `open` handler (because how would the shell or terminal know what to do with pseudo-random data if you don't have some kind of handler?) but PNGs, JPEGs, etc will be rendered with sixel/or whatever proprietary support the terminal emulator has for inlining images if `open` is used and STDOUT is a TTY. So it's not just curses interfaces though the principle is similar.

In one experimental module I even went as far as having web pages render in the terminal if STDOUT was a TTY. So instead of making a HTTP(S) request and displaying the bytes, it would render the webpage, images and all. Only falling back to a standard `curl` operation if the command was piped. This never made it to production code though, it was very Linux specific code and required a heap of 3rd party software to be installed just to work. But it was a great example of just how much you can already do with some terminals.
Being generous you can mine ~$10 of crypto per day with a 3080 based on its hashrate, zero electricity cost.

So to transfer $1 million out over 3 years, you'd need to run mine ~$900 of crypto per day, ie. run 90 RTX3080s 24/7/365.

Also note that this would draw around 20kW.

According to the official Deno releases it's:

Hrm. The USA has many faults but being a single-party state is not one of them.

What you describe however is true of any social structure. Vocal, highly engaged minorities dominate the discussion and thus steer normative process. The progression of the process is taken up by the silent majority and societies' overtone window is shifted.

It takes another vocal, highly engaged minority to change the influence how the discourse shifts. As soon as the shift in overtone window is noticed by enough members of society, this minority finds together and the shift is halted.
I think people underestimate how easy it is to launder money with more traditional methods and overestimated how easy it is with crypto.
Hmm, sounds like a lot of sales talk around what seems to be a "nice fisheye effect".

The first gif of that room in the article shows exactly the problem: rasterizing works by transforming a bunch of triangles from world space to view space.

This works with rectilinear projection because each triangle can be transformed into a different shaped triangle, based on the perspective of the camera. You can't transform a triangle into a "bendy" triangle. And the screenshots show "bendy" lines.

So, if you want a "fisheye" effect in rasterization, you first need to render a rectilinear image, and then distort it, leaving you with a blurry center due to a lack of resolution.
This is nothing short of brilliant. Great breakdown of a complex and politically charged issue.
With BTC you would need to pay transaction fees, and in practice, anonymization fees (e.g. for mixing services, tunneling through a private cryptocurrency) for many transactions. These would amount to far more than inflation for USD, EUR, etc.

Don't you just scan ahead and jump to the next bit? I have a problem with doing this with novels I like, if it's getting intense then I'll want to skip/scan-read to get to the next tranche of "action". I do the same with TV/films, if there's a filler scene, just skip to the next scene.

I remember this paper. A major flaw that was pointed out to the authors (and never corrected) is that Bitcoin tumbling services—popular among illicit users—artificially increase the transaction volumes. So if tumbling services puts the BTC on average through 10 transactions, then this will multiply by 10-fold the volume. In other words there wouldn't be $76B transacted annually, but only $7.6B.

Tumbling also makes some of their other figures unbelievable. For example in table 2 they report "181.82%" of all users transactions attempt to use tumbling services... I have little confidence in this paper being accurate.
Yeah it’s mostly 2nd tier players who can see a salary bump from switching or have been banned from CS for previous rule violations.

I hope Valorant kicks Valve into gear a bit. I have played many hours of both and CS:GO is a much better game (simplicity, balance, opportunity for individual skill) but we will see...

An interesting thing from an esport perspective: Riot tightly controls Valorant matches, whilst Valve will let anyone run and monetise a CS tournament. I think this will make CS a more healthy scene in the long run.
There is potential for hyperinflation, just like having a police force means there is a potential for extrajudicial killings and all sorts of nasty stuff. The thing is when was the last time a western country experienced hyperinflation? I think Germany in the 1930s. Hyperinflation is a made-up problem.
Every billionaire is a failure of government, culture, and society. Pablo Escobar is dead, why should I waste my breath on a corpse? Bill Gates behaves like a king, moving his pawns around the world, controlling people and resources in a way that Hitler could not even imagine. Zuckerberg benefits from, enables, and has helped fascists take power, commit genocides, and mislead hundreds of millions-billions of people while having a direct hand on scales of public discourse the world over. Musk is an imperialist technofacist. So, I guess a better question, is why do you revere these sociopaths and not the more overt ones too? What's the difference between idolizing a child pump, drug dealer, hit man, or racketeer and a person that treats their staff as slaves, or one who funds experimentation on humans in the third world, or who leverages their capital to coup a democratic government for natural resources? They're all the same scum to me. No amount of money spent on PR will erase the harm they caused to get their plunder.

Darknet markets almost universally advise against using BTC that hasn't been explicitly anonymized, a process that costs money and effort and requires knowhow to do properly.

Let's look at this question from the compiler's point of view : What will be the assembly sequence are you going to generate for that dynamic-sized-argument runtime behavior?

For compiled languages it is handled with calling convention, and most architectures (ARM, PPC, RISC-V, ...) have register-based calling convention. Only when all the argument registers are consumed, the function call pass the rest arguments on the stack.
