I don't "google," I "web search." And I don't use big G as my initial, primary search engine.

Using Google "like a pro" may have been a possibility in the past but they stopped being a reliable professional tool a long vulgarized time ago.

These days Google serves up garbage search results for babies.

> help you stick to a compatible model that'll work with the framework itself

Fair enough.

> Windows-specific concept is a bit odd .. but then again maybe it can be one layer of a larger multi-os compatible framework in the future

It _could_ be, but I don't think it will be. It's not billed as ‘win32 interop tools you can use in your lua project’; it's billed as ‘complete framework that happens to depend on lua and win32’.
I grew up in Alabama, and remember a few times a summer seeing the "mosquito truck" drive by, spraying pesticide as I played in the yard. I guess it works!
Well, Starship has definitely reached bigger height than SLS so far (unless you count some of the reused Shuttle engines). ;-)

Also considering the planned SLS "landing" mode they are also on par so far.

> i7 stays the same over 10+ years with only the obscure (to the general public) suffix changing from generation to generation.

My wife was confused about that earlier this week. She was like: 'you mean i7 is not newer than i5? And if i7 is better than i5, why can an i5 be better than an i7? (when it's an old i7)'

I get they have the generation. But:

1 - it's not easy to compare different models of different generations. How can a non-technical person compare 7th gen i5 with 5th gen i7?

2 - Many places that sell computers don't put the generation on the 'headline'. You have to dig in the specs to discover that, if you can find it at all
I'm curious what sorts of data you are collecting and how it helps to have it in map form rather than some other file format.
It makes sense if you want to use the rockets you already have instead of building the absolutely titanic rockets you would need to carry everything in one trip. There are metallurgical limits to just how big you can make the rockets as well.

But this isn't necessarily advocating for a full time in-orbit refuelling station either. The plan might be to instead launch 2 or 3 rockets, 1 with the stuff and the others with fuel. They meet up in orbit and the fuel rockets refill the stuff rocket so it can go on to Mars or wherever, then they return to Earth for the next mission.
Would it make sense to have multiple entities being able to have copyright on a single piece of work? In the Warhol case, maybe x% of the copyright to Warhol and y% to Prince?

It would make the legal aspect of profiting off such works 10x more complicated. And determining the appropriate percentages for each "contributor" would be a nightmare, if not impossible. But would it be more fair in the end?
Thank you. Yes you are right it is not the best, but then is a sample of a short period of time at the start of a pandemic indicative of the entire pandemic. The true impact upon suicide is hard to really measure in such and certainly the only true picture will be a few years from now and having a few years worth of data. I dare say be many latent ones down to the economic impacts and other knock-on effects.

[ADD] I looked and in the UK the rate has increased and been noted that that the aspect that coroner’s inquests initially at the start of the pandemic had been suspended due to caution in contamination and spread as we was still learning about the virus. An aspect that I'm sure mirror's in many countries globally.
That's a funny way of saying they have to pay for the license.

Don't mean to debate, and I certainly wasn't criticizing the choice. I just thought it was unusual, since luajit makes interop with native code a much stronger focus than puc lua.

Yes, that's what ripgrep does, or similarish. In my initial implementation, I did what you suggested on a standard u64. But bytecount adds SIMD to it (which I did not write): https://docs.rs/bytecount

I believe GNU grep just uses memchr for this. But I might be mis-remembering.
> SpaceX and other players only care about supporting science to the extent it makes them money.

In some ways true, but it's hard for me to accept they're a cold, calculating money-grubber despite the common refrain that corporations only exist to make money. SpaceX will gain an absolute massive amount of public goodwill by bringing humans back to another celestial body after 50+ years. That goodwill pays off over the long term in money terms.
The trouble is that if you use my public signing key to do something else it wasn't intended for (here, X25519) I can't participate without also using my private key in this unconventional way.

Now, this looks safe which is more than can be said for the equivalent trick in RSA, which looks obviously dangerous and in practice has caused real problems, but it sure would be comforting if people did all the heavy lifting to prove it is safe rather than shrugging and doing it anyway (e.g. 'age')

Meanwhile it feels like the lesson we learned aeons ago in cryptography should apply, if we can't prove why it's safe, let's just assume it isn't safe.
I have 3 manual typewriters (a cheap brother charger, Olivetti SV something, and a 1920s pain-in-the-neck to use), and 3 electronic typewriters (Brother ML something with single line display, IBM ActionWriter II, IBM Wheelwriter 2000). None of them have needed repairs, but when they do, I'm in trouble.

I constantly use the last one because its simple daisy wheel design and buckling spring keys that feel just like my IBM Model M keyboard (since the latter came from the former), but I have to admit it is a weighty, barely 'portable' typewriter.

One of these days I'm gonna make good on my threat to reverse engineer just enough of the PS2 protocol to mount a raspberry pi zero, some sort of small screen, and some rechargeable batteries inside the upper case margins of this keyboard so it can be a buckling-spring-powered Alphasmart with SD card.
Control needs a basis from which to operate. I doubt there will be much of one on Mars initially. It would most likely be a direct democracy just because of the reality on the ground.
We stayed 2 nights at the hotel there in Panamint Springs back in December, and even right outside the cabins (and nowhere near a new moon) the Milky Way was clearly visible after letting your eyes adjust for a few minutes. This was in the parking lot where there’s no real attempt at avoiding nearby light pollution.
AFAIK lunar Starship still has Raptors in the tail that do most of the burns, the "belt" engines are only used for the final landing phase to reduce the ammount of regolith kicked up by the rocket plumes contact with the surface.
Are they going to install chargers in the assigned spaces of all the tenants who want them, or a couple of communal chargers for tenants to fight over? Having to go back out to the parking lot every couple of hours to see if the charger is free, move your car onto it, or move your car off of it, is right down the middle of "range anxiety."

I'll never understand this. You presumably are biking on the street, at best in a bike lane, at worst in the shoulder, and are placing so much confidence in other people to not hit you.

Given how SHIT other people are at driving, I have no desire whatsoever to be on a bicycle in front of them.

This is great news which will save many lives.

We will need to do more though. There are species of Plasmodium which survive on non-human hosts which means the disease will always be waiting - and this vaccination regimen is very demanding, so interruption or underinvestment will make Malaria come back.

IMHO to finish off malaria we'll need some other approaches to complement it, and my suggestion is to get rid of the specific mosquito species that carries the disease. That's what happened in all developed countries long before a vaccine ever existed, and that's a good solution for poor countries (this time, we can use more discriminate methods).

I would expect the workload as described to be fine on M1 Macs too (perhaps excepting Lightroom). If I had to guess, something in the background was adding memory pressure. For instance, I’ve seen the Spotlight background processes (mds, mds_stores) take over 16 GB. And those definitely work hard during the first run.

For line counting specifically, memchr isn't used, but rather, bytecount is: https://docs.rs/bytecount/0.6.2/bytecount/

However, memchr is still used for finding the bounds of a line when a match occurs. memchr still does pretty well on shorter haystacks too. The main loop is indeed quite large, but before that, it does unaligned loads of 32 bytes: https://github.com/BurntSushi/rust-memchr/blob/427fdc384007d...

I’m not an active OpenBSD user, but I’m reasonably confident that the OpenBSD W^X check kills any violating process since about 2016. Applies to all executables (not just system services/daemons with conscientious maintainers who think to apply that setting) except if the filesystem is mounted wxallowed. I think that’s a strict improvement.

I like systemd on Linux, but I think the systemd sandboxing is chasing OpenBSD, not the other way around.
The most well known products are the ones with the biggest marketing budget. In order to get that marketing budget they have to extract value from each user.
Oh right. I interpreted it as connected on an emotional level. Also, I might be a bit bitter about the whole situation.

Is it just me, or does his look quite a lot like a population density heat-map? XKCD 1138[1] comes to mind.

For those persons concerned solely about light polution, this is definitely useful. But another thing I think would be interesting is this map, corrected for population density. Mentioned down thread is that different localities have different rules affecting lighting, and that this can be seen in the map. Correcting this map for population density would probably show that even more.

Propelant depots, those make all the difference.
I've been following the id.4 release with moderate interest. I previously had a 2016 Golf R 6 speed manual, and now have a 2018 Tesla Model 3.

IMO, the VW is just too expensive. Now, if you're getting the tax credit on the VW, and of course can't get it on a Tesla anymore, that makes the difference. But without the credit, the id4 is virtually the price of an AWD Model Y. For a vehicle that doesn't have AWD, has a ton less power, is significantly slower, less range, and no supercharger access.

Now, those aren't awful hits against a tax-credit-fueled $10k savings (or whatever). But I don't think it's close to there yet.

There are a lot of weird things from the reviews I've seen, too. Spotty voice recognition, "free" charging requires you to use a fiddly phone app, the car only has 2 window switches and requires that you toggle between front and rear with a 3rd button (wtf), and the Nav system is awful and routes you to chargepoint (ultra slow) chargers on a roadtrip, vs DC fast chargers.

So much of this can be changed in software, and maybe VW will drop the price when the tax credits go away, the same way Tesla did.

But, it just seems like far too little car for the money.
1200 miles/year is an atypical use case for a vehicle in the US and your options can be anything, including many older cars, and also possibly human-powered transport and/or electric-powered scooters/bikes/skateboards. We have a '12 CR-V w/ 120k miles which right now is doing standby vehicle duty, our Tesla Model 3 takes all the miles (15-20k/year).
Yes bikes are nice and fun until you have a familiy that aren't hippies. Also hippies prefer warmer climates and home schooling. I wonder why. We've got quite a few bikes. Never use them during winter. Winter means snow and sub zero temperatures. I'd rather nordic walk instead. Not in the city breathing fumes, of course. I would ride my bike most of the time once cars or vehicles that spew fumes and turn you into roadkill are taken off the roads either by legislation, environmentalist militias or apocalypse.

The proliferation of formats has diminished, fortunately, so there is some interesting, somewhat target-specific work (e.g. the gold linker) being done without bfd.

Yes, the pathology of "freedom" is somewhat more recent, at least in terms of its extreme intensity.

My gut feeling is that it can be traced back to Ayn Rand & Co, but it's hard to say. But around that time, and near that environment, some spectacularly evil things came to be accepted as "reasonable".
I think you are misattributing the rules in this case. What you seem to be missing is that when people say "legos" they are not referring to a game like your example of snooker. Legos refers to "lego bricks".

Thus the probably extremely common sentence used by parents all over America is "Please cleanup your legos".

And that refers to duplo bricks and off brand building block copies as well.

So basically, for it to be technically incorrect, you have to argue that "legos" is an incorrect substitution for "lego bricks". I would argue that it is such a common synonym for "attachable building blocks" or "lego bricks", that it is now technically correct as well as coloquially common.

Just like many dictionaries have now added an additional definition for the word "literally", making sentences like, "I am literally dead right now" both colloquially common and technically correct.
No, how a website monetizes their site is not my concern. Just because they choose ads does not obligate me to decide to not go there again. In fact, due to my technology choices, I may never even realize they have chosen that route as I may never see their ads in the first place.

As a publicly available resource, it is like browsing. I can browse many brick and mortar stores without exchanging anything of value. And like a store, if a website decided they did not want people browsing without a purchase, they could block access.
Does the clock reset if you update the original work? With rolling releases, who determines when the clock officially starts? Also you'd have to account for industries where copyright/trademark/patents could overlap on products. While a nice idea, I imagine it would become a bureaucratic nightmare to implement as a law. But nevertheless, we need to think about new ways to fix the current broken system.

There's strict and then there's strict:

> North Dakota and South Dakota are both among the least restrictive states in the country with the higher per capita case rates of COVID-19 in the country.

> North Dakota has had 13,036 cases per 100,000 residents while South Dakota has had 12,585 per 100,000, according to data tracking from the New York Times.

> Vermont and Hawaii, on the other hand, have some of the lowest per capita case rates in the country (2,341 and 1,912 per 100,000, respectively) and among the most restrictive policies, according to data analysis from WalletHub.

Minimum work for routers would be mark the IP packet as truncated, and adjust the IP checksum; upper level protocol can suck it. This is, of course, more work than dropping it on the floor and pretending you'll send an ICMP, but much less work than sending two (or ocassionally more) new packets.

In the middle fragmentation is not really something that happens very often. IPv6 prohibited it, but in IPv4, nearly all packets are marked do not fragment, because IP routers weren't fragmenting much anyway; I think it's more likely to get an ICMP needs fragmentation packet on a too big packet with Don't Fragment, than to actually get fragmented delivery.

Also, MSS is mostly not a negotiation; most stacks send what they think they can receive in the syn and the syn+ack. The only popular stack that sent min(received MSS, MSS from routing) was FreeBSD, but they changed to the common way in 12 IIRC; which in my opinion is a mistake, but I don't have enough data to show it... actually what seems best is to send back min (received MSS - X, MSS from routing), where X is 8 or 20, depending on if you more of your users are on misconfigured PPPoE or behind misconfigured IPIP tunnels.
You're paying for that difference upfront, however. Is gasoline in the U. S. likely to go up faster than the, say, S&P 500, where one could put that extra $15K until it's time to buy more gasoline? Historical data say "no". Gas was $3-$4/gallon when I moved to Seattle 20 years ago, and it continues to stay between $3-$4.

There's lots to like about electric cars (again, so much so that I'll never buy another ICE), but IMO any cost savings is going to be pretty far down the list. After ten years of EV ownership, I'd almost pay the difference in price so I never, ever have to go out of my way to visit a gas station again. Man, what a hassle that is once out of the habit. But EVs are just generally better vehicles that make an ICE seem like the rattling, primitive contraption that it is. That doesn't sell cars because one needs to own an EV to realize that. So to get folks to the ownership, we tell them it'll save money on gas. Which is technically true, but not the reason to buy EVs.

It's not absurd that corporate entities would make changes to their software without a desire to release those changes as code. It has serious implications on patents etc...

If Blender had a stable C API that was dual licensed, you'd see a lot more studio uptake IMHO. Heck, even libc is dual licensed.

This all comes down to the GPL not being well received by most tech corporations. People can argue whether that's got merit or not. However it's a long standing fact that tech companies do not like having dependencies on GPL code that can "infect" their code base. Entertainment studios are the same. They're largely tech companies at their core that create art.

>The Peter Bright article you posted has no mention of /pol.

It wasn't supposed to, I just posted it for the context of the court case I was talking about. It would be more weird if the court decision included those, since they didn't contribute to his arrest or anything.

If you are curious, you are welcome to go to any 4chan archiver websites and search for his name to see those conversations.

>Trolling journalists doesn't sound like "gems", it sounds like a waste of time (and I'm no fan of most journalists).

What sounds like a waste of time to you might sound like good entertainment to others. If anything, I would say that the "journalist" going directly to 4chan and attempting to "interview" people there was much more of a waste of time.

Super excited for your project. I have been using map tiles from Mapbox, MapTiler, OSM Buildings for my project and am coming to the point that I need to merge elevation data with building height data in order to cast realistic shadows across the earth. Unfortunately elevation data and building data come from two different tile sets from two different tile providers and it's a lot of download/processing overhead to merge the two data sources. I need to make my own tiles!

I spent part of today on the OSM wiki trying to wrap my head around Mapnik, how tiles are generated, how I am going to host this cheaply because my project is non-commercial, and then the HN gods smiled on me. Thank you for taking this on and I'm coming along for this journey!
