Netflix stock falls despite strong Q1 outcome
I run into this problem all the time at my work. The company loves to fund new solutions to our problems, but those solutions never pay out because the company has no plan or funding to maintain the solution once the MVP has been developed and released. Our process is built on a pile of abandonware.
Out of interest, is there any way to have some sort of automated way to test this weak link that is human trust? (I understand how absurd this question is)

From GKH's response, which you linked:

They obviously were _NOT_ created by a static analysis tool that is of
any intelligence, as they all are the result of totally different
patterns, and all of which are obviously not even fixing anything at
all. So what am I supposed to think here, other than that you and your
group are continuing to experiment on the kernel community developers by
sending such nonsense patches?

When submitting patches created by a tool, everyone who does so submits
them with wording like "found by tool XXX, we are not sure if this is
correct or not, please advise." which is NOT what you did here at all.
You were not asking for help, you were claiming that these were
legitimate fixes, which you KNEW to be incorrect.
> running a full node is practically impossible

Can you elaborate?

I found it super easy to setup a full (non-mining) ETH1 node on an Intel NUC running Ubuntu. And on the same NUC I’m running two validator nodes on the ETH2 mainnet, which together have earned about 3 ETH in rewards so far. The NUC is hooked to a cable Internet connection at home, nothing fancy.
Value is a highly subjective term. Some claim that social media companies don’t add value. But they continue to thrive. Even tobacco companies are only dying because of extensive regulation.
They add short term value maybe. But in the long term many dont. And by the time they die the damage is done.

There are also counter factuals. The value a corporation prevents from being created due to monopolies or lobbying. That cannot be measured and maybe greater than the value added.

In my experience the executives want what the sales folks want. What the sales folks want is features, preferably features that work half the time so they can include a support contract on top of the license. So they can fix bugs and get paid for it but only the ones for a specific paying customer. They don't care if the overall thing is dying for lack of investment, they just want a signing because that's what their bonus is based off of.
The comment about IRB —- institutional research board —- is clear, I think.
The title of the piece is "‘It is much worse this time’: India’s devastating second wave". Given that the discussion is of the exponential increases in both cases and deaths, it seems clear that the "it" in the title refers to "the pandemic", not "life in general".

My response followed this interpretation, despite the wording of your questions - clearly I should have been more explicit: "How would the lockdowns have made the pandemic worse?"
In the "American system", in most major sports, individual players (and coaches, effectively) are relegated and promoted between the big league and smaller developmental leagues all the time. I don't love the American system but a failure to ensure that our top talent plays in the top leagues is not one of its deficiencies.

In terms of meritocracy, I'd say it works at least as well as the European system.

As an American I would admit a preference for the promotion/relegation model but when I look at how a league like the English Premier League functions I don't find much to be jealous of. It's basically just a contest to see who has the most money... the teams with huge amounts of cash win nearly every year. Greed wins. And the fat paychecks for Premier league teams assure that the rich stay rich. It's hilarious to think of Man U being relegated because it could happen but c'mon, it's not.

The main difference is that Euro football leagues give the illusion of adhering to the sport's amateur roots. Theoretically your local town's team could play its way up to the Bundesliga or the EPL and win it all. However... that is basically an illusion. Occasionally a team like Cardiff City fights its way up to the Premier League, takes a beating, and sinks back down to the Championship League. They never really have a chance. Once per century you get a Leicester-style miracle, which is extremely cool but it's the exception that proves the rule.

Basically both systems are nearly equally ugly but the American one is more honest in most regards.

However I will agree that the proposed Super League is a terrible idea. The Champions League is special because it pits the best against the best every single year. That will be much less true for the Super League.

That's just false. AMDs newer U models have TDP and performance per watt at the same level as the M1.

Apple has other advantages with the M1 (like running iOS programs, more optimised for their software and so on), so they still benefit from having their own chips. M1 is great, but it's not magic.
It's probably also selling more than the 68k and PowerPC Macs combined

Nice article on the basic functionalities of the Internet backbone. I really like the animation explaining this article with nice pictures. In short, BGP has a bug that potentially created a huge outage in August 2020. The proposed fix is to imrove the BGP protocol with a new feature. It's not easy because, it's the backbone of internet. Let's see where this will go.
M1 is amazing and I bought my partner one and she loves it.

However, when it came to buying a new engineer on our team a laptop, we had to go with the last 2020 Intel model.

We still have some uncertainty over whether or not our development tools/environment will work on M1. Many python packages will take longer to install I imagine (if there are no wheels for the M1 mac, not sure if that's an issue) and I suspect some won't build at all. I also have some concerns over our Docker environment building.

Is there anyone doing python development and using Docker who can share their experience so far?

Edit: please also share non-python development experience, it's really interesting to hear

Beam VM Wisdoms (2019)
Many major clubs have had issues with the way the Champions League works for years and it is a well-known problem. The ESL is just the latest symptom.

It's not ideological or "neo liberal capitalist logic", though I agree this is mostly a business problem.

But even at a more basic level this is about liberty. I don't see a fundamental difference between clubs wanting to set up the ESL and people in a town wanting to set up a tournament among them of whatever sport or legal activity they please. The State has no business interfering.

Now of course the fans (as fans and customers) can equally make their voice heard and vote with their feet if they are not interested.

My only concern here is this attempt by the government to dictate how football should be run.
Sources please. second time you've claimed this and many have objected that they do this.
Not that I'm a defender of either system but US teams don't promote or relegate as a whole. Rather, the players move up or down between minor and major league teams.
Do you? You have agreement with part of the company and work it out with them, but does this routinely include the people who would be actively looking for your intrusion and trying to catch it? Often that is handled by automated systems which are not updated to have any special knowledge about the up coming penetration test and most of those supporting the application aren't made aware of the details either. The organization is aware, but not all of the people who may be impacted.
> Then you also get which country is doing the destabilization, and it sure as hell isn't the EU.

That's a pretty simplistic view of how international politics and geostrategy is played.

ATO expansion is undesirable to Russia and counter to agreements made between Russia and NATO. Russia has also been testing Western responses to its salami incursions beginning with Abkhazia and now Ukraine. The most it has gotten so far are sanctions (probably better than a full scale war at this point, but longer term this tactic may not succeed as Russia keeps chewing away). American meddling and financing of Euromaidan to topple Yanukovych and shake up Ukrainian politics is what opened the door to Russian pretexts to invade a country whose borders are not only an unstable Soviet construct (culturally speaking), but which plays an important territorial role in Russian security (control of Crimea allows control of the Sea of Azoz).

You can probably add NordStream II to the mix, but that's more about gaining the upper hand over Central Europe in cooperation with Germany, hence the farce of EU unity, and in this case, where energy security and its geopolitical consequences are concerned.

Thus the need for a Central European bloc that can withstand the grind of American/Western and Russian cultural and geopolitical tectonics. The Three Seas Initiative is ostensibly supposed to accomplish this, exploiting American backing, at least in the beginning. Belarus had historically been oriented toward this center of gravity until the 19th century. The Belarusian opposition certainly leans in the historical direction and the only other alternative is Russian vassalage. This Central European bloc incidentally would function like a buffer that would also serve the security interests of Europe in general.
I think his point is that a lot of people are blaming the Americans for this when the 2 largest and greediest clubs in the world are "run" by fans. So it has nothing to do with the Americans, it's that European football has become so greedy at the top.

I have been using Flyway with Node.js. Works all right and you write everything (migrations, schema, seeds) in SQL. It does make working with SQL quite straightforward and non-magical.

Sure, and I know some people for whom it was also "here" and now it's "there" because they can't live any more in their hometown because of war. For you guys "here" in Kiev Donbas is also "there".

> Besides, it might be a novel concept for you, but here we have an actual elections. People can always vote for some Russian puppet (Medvedchuk, for example) and "join" Russia. I guess majority thinks that "fucking war" is better alternative in this situation.

And that's why Ukraine will never be a prosperous country, as long as you consider a "fucking war" a better alternative to anything.

The majority has been brainwashed by "western" propaganda to hate everything Russian, to the point it would rather have "fucking war" against their ex citizen in Donbas and Crimea instead of letting them choose where and how they want to live. Those guys in Donbas and Crimea also had elections and referendums, not worse than those in Ukraine, and they decided they don't want to live with someone who is denying them basic human rights based on the wrong ethnicity. Would you rather kill them all than let them go? And since you want to kill all the ethnic Russians why are you surprised that Russia won't let you do it?

NATO is happy to have war against Russia or Russian allies to the last Ukrainian solder and civilian.

I see a myriad of comments that boil down to “duh”, but I think these comments are missing the point.

Consider an alternate possibility: “sales of Apple’s new ARM macs outpaced by older models”.

Had Apple not knocked M1 out of the park, this was a real possibility. Is it surprising that a well executed architecture change is now selling well? Not really.

But the more interesting point is that the rest of the market agrees with us early adopters and tech nerds.

This would be a very different headline if devs were struggling to port their software, or if Rosetta 2 didn’t live up to its promise.

A way to detect buffer overflows is by using canary values at the end of the buffer. A hardware failure is unlikely to randomly generate the same value as the canary and you can use this to detect an overflow. Malicious hardware would want to deliberately set the canary to the same value as it was before so as to escape detection, and you need to use something more sophisticated like a random canary value instead of a constant.

This is the case for pretty much every open source project. See eg. Openssl.

Since open source can be used for free, there is very little incentive to change the current situation. And with non copy left licences it can be even worse. The only realistic way to fix these problems I can imagine is to force companies to use paid distros, and let these companies hire developers.

But it has been historically hard to make people pay for distro support. Red Hat and Suse were successful, but they never got big enough. It's too easy to use their products for free, or use alternatives like Debian.
C# itself isn't hard, but the ecosystem is. I have been writing code for years and wanted to take a look at dotnet not that long ago. There are no tutorials on how to make something that is not also a tutorial on visual studio. I want to learn how to make a webapp or whatever in C#.NET, learn the paradigms, classes, and functions that I need to do that. I'll go look into Visual Studio after I understand the basics to make things easier, but I shouldn't need that as the price of admission. The author addresses this with a comment about goland. But the point is that any other language, the beginner material is about "here's a main.go text file that starts a web server..." and not "click some buttons in one specific IDE and magic happens". I can use emacs, vi, or VScode to write C, go, rust, python, javascript, etc... just about everything. But not C#.

That line triggered me as well. I have built hundreds of applications on top of databases w/ sql and nosql, and from that experience— the notion that a single ORM abstraction somehow ameliorates the burden of caring about how your queries are written is alarming to me.
I don't think this is correct. The authors have contributed a large number of legitimate bugfixes to the kernel. I think they really did believe that process changes can make the kernel safer and that by doing this research they can encourage that change and make the community better.

They were grossly wrong, of course. The work is extremely unethical. But I don't believe that their other actions are consistent with a "we hate OSS and want to prove it is bad" ethos.
Well it was, but not the type of thing that HSR would normally worry about.
Indeed the situation is bad, nothing can be done. At the very least as long as they can make unintentional vulnerabilities, they are defenseless against intentional ones, and fixing only the former is already a very big deal.

I'm not denying that humans, in their current form, as a species are set apart from the rest of life on this planet.

Rather what I'm trying to get at is, that if you'd backtrace the evolution of humans, at no particular point in time you could make a clear desitinction of "this generation of pre homo sapiens species fundamentally differs in their linguistic capabilities from the next evolutionary step".

The linguistic capabilities of hominids and humans more likely than not developed gradually, just like every other feature that makes a distinct species. Eventually you'll be able to clearly tell them apart. But when applying a "derivative" operator on it, you'll find that evolutionary development is smooth and continuous.

And I think that also applies to linguistic capabilities. The proposition I'm making is, that the linguogenesis of homo sapiens can not be explained within the boundaries of that species. Rather I'd say that the roots of our language can be traced back far further than you'd presume by presence of certain vocal anatomical features alone.
