I see a double edged sword here. We already have enough light pollution that stars are hard to see in most cities. That amount of pollution grows yearly as cost per lumen drops. The problem ground based astronomers are having is the pollution these low earth sats are having. This is the down side. What makes me hopeful is how much better orbital optics can be. Couple this with signal processing and scores of telescopes in orbit, and you could create a virtual lens many times larger and clearer than anything planet side.

As the price for getting satellites into orbit drops I imagine astronomy having some pretty major breakthroughs.

That’s at least my hope. Most of what I’ve been watching is low orbit satellites but I don’t know how high an orbit you’d want for the kinds of things I’m imagining.

You'd've thought so. Persisted to SQL-Server. Early 2000s, so totally impractical.

The CTO cofounder was not impressed by the UI guy asking out loud what every one was thinking.

The fancy pants UI I was tasked to create wasn't even backed by a query language or path expressions. So dumb.

I stayed just long enough to find another gig.

PS- I did storyboard and wireframed a novel UI which resolved the graph visualization "paradox" (aka "focus+context"). It'd be perfect for neo4j & Cypher. I always thought I'd eventually circle back, if only to see if the idea had legs. Oh well.
I did the same, but if I'm doing that skimming and I know the answer to question 12 is (c), I fill in (c) and keep going. I don't read all the questions, then go back and try and remember which of the questions I knew the answers to off-hand. Instead, I'd do the test in 3 passes.

1. Answer all questions that I know the answer instantly or (for math type tests) can solve within a few seconds. Skip anything not quick.
2. Go back and answer questions that I know I can solve. These usually take a minute or two (since the easy ones should already be done). If there happens to be a question I know I can solve but also know will take "too much time," skip it.
3. If there's time left, work through any remaining questions (hopefully there aren't that many), making a best effort to prioritize the ones I'm more confident that I can solve in the time remaining.

Why are you getting into the definition of fallacious? Read the NTSB report.

> The Tesla Autopilot system did not provide an effective means of monitoring the driver’s level of engagement with the driving task, and the timing of alerts and warnings was insufficient to elicit the driver’s response to prevent the crash or mitigate its severity. Requirements are needed for driver monitoring systems for advanced driver assistance systems that provide partial driving automation (SAE Level 2 systems), and Tesla needs to develop applications that more effectively sense the driver’s level of engagement and that alert drivers who are not engaged...

> Despite the system’s known limitations, Tesla does not restrict where Autopilot can be used. Tesla should incorporate system safeguards that limit the use of partial driving automation systems (Autopilot) to those conditions for which they were designed...

> The Tesla’s collision avoidance assist systems were not designed to, and did not, detect the crash attenuator. Because this object was not detected, (a) Autopilot accelerated the SUV to a higher speed, which the driver had previously set by using adaptive cruise control, (b) the forward collision warning did not provide an alert, and (c) the automatic emergency braking did not activate. For partial driving automation systems to be safely deployed in a high-speed operating environment, collision avoidance systems must be able to effectively detect potential hazards and warn of potential hazards to drivers

Autopilot 1) failed to detect a distracted driver and engage them, 2) is not limited by Tesla to areas where it actually works, and 3) depends on collision avoidance which does not work. Tesla is claiming they will solve these problems without LiDAR. Volvo, Waymo, GM, VW, and many more claim that even semi-autonomous driving isn't possible without it. We'll see how many more people have to die before Tesla changes their mind.
Cities are "ideally" cheaper to live in because things are closer together and there's more economies of scale. American cities aren't expensive because they're too popular, it's because everyone wants to be the last person to live there and we let them NIMBY their own children out of it.
Your argument implies that "I don't know what is in front of me" can just be used as a signal to "stop the car", but that still isn't OK (slamming on the breaks on a freeway because a trailer has someone's face on the back of it, for example)

Recognition performance matters.
You can't bridge regular 802.11 wireless into ethernet at the client side. The on-air addressing requires the client MAC address to be the same as the ethernet packet's sender.

802.11 has the concept of "transmitter address" and "receiver address" in addition to source and destination. Those are MAC addresses too, but they're relevant for the on-air radio management. Things like RTS, CTS, ACKs, and fancier things like beamforming and sounding. The problem is that the design only includes 3 address fields in on-air frames; the AP can specify separate SA and TA (i.e. send a packet for somebody else, SA=real source, TA=AP MAC, RA=DA=client.) There is no mechanism for the client to do the same thing; that would require 4 address fields.

Coincidentally, 4 address fields is exactly what you get with "WDS" / "Wireless Extender" / ... modes. However, these need to be supported, enabled and configured on both the AP and client. The author of the post seems to have no access to the AP to do so (and the AP possibly doesn't support it anyway.)

> You can get free enterprise access to a lot of the major flight tracker services by setting up an ADSB receiver and feeding the data to them. Basically they give you full access to everything as if you were paying for the top tier of their services, because you're helping increase the coverage of their data.

"top tier" may be overstating it but setting up a RPi and $20 USB ASDB receiver will get you the $90/month Enterprise feed [1]. Still a great deal if this is a topic that interests you.

in the world sure, but it's a different story in the US.
So they created an app that works as a programming environment, one of their users abused the google play services and they are getting the flak for it.
There is a lot of evidence, albeit unverified, that the working environment at Valve is actually extremely toxic and unpleasant. Here is a sampling:

There is enough smoke that I think it's reasonable to conclude there is fire, and I would look very skeptically upon the idea of working at Valve.
"We've noticed that you're violating our policies."

"Which policies?"

"That's none of your business."

"Which issues?"

"I've said too much already."
I can't help but notice that it's not a “Linux”'s job to do something about WhatsApp demanding this and that from you. It's a problem (let's not belittle it), and it's yours (well, you share it with others).

Also, people who can't get in touch with you because you don't use some fad-of-the-year app are not your real friends. Tell them that you still use MySpace (wearing a Myspace T-shirt), or prefer WeChat (a billion of users can't be wrong), and see how it goes.
This makes sense given that there have already been studies that show that this is already practiced when people call to search for housing. https://source.wustl.edu/2006/02/linguistic-profiling-the-so...

It's not that much of a stretch to say that if real estate agents or landlords do it, that hiring professionals also do it.
One trick to minimize debugging footprint is to store logs in a ring buffer/array list and defer printing. It's not perfect, but if you use a ring buffer, you can avoid making any syscalls until you are truly ready to print. Thread synchronization can obviously still be a problem, but that can be mitigated by using thread local buffers or by using a lockless ring buffer.

Ring buffers are also nice because you can also use them for cases where you don't normally want some information printed because it would introduce too much overhead, but you want the option to print it out in case of crashes/errors. On an engineering side, you just need to be careful not to put too much through this system so the buffer stays useful and also avoid putting something only in the ring buffer system that should really just be logged normally.
Google search results have been gradually getting worse for me as well.
WASM is just another thing that makes the web platform (and Electron binaries) a fat bloated runtime. Anything you can do with WASM, you can do with Javascript, probably as fast or faster, because it all still needs to go through Web APIs to do anything interesting.

> * the kernel community prefers kludges over simpler, visibly more robust code if the latter has performance impact (The biggest example of this is of course choosing a monolithic kernel instead of a microkernel.)

You should just run Minix.
Stepping through can be a pain sometimes, because to find certain bugs it's easier to look through a log throughout a longer run of the program, and see how the state changes.

Of course, a debugger that could generate a log like that instead of pausing execution would give you that benefit too.
I think US-bias is more so class bias than race bias and this comes with a 99% correlation to racial discrimination due to the half millenium of directly ensuring certain races could not access the economy or capital or literacy.

Racial discrimination also occurs.

A lot of support for racial equality is lost because it is too reductive and invalidates the experience of potential allies in the majority power who experience biases or don't inherit some of the privileges that they are assumed by others to have. A lot of racial discrimination is created and perpetuated by invalidating those potential allies' experience. While the class bias is never addressed at all.
I agree. More over, half of these have genuinly mutually exclusive instructions.

And from those mutually exclusive requirements you are supposed to pick the "least likely one" else you are wrong. It is good example how manipulation works however. You put people into unsolvable situation and then blame them.
Not so fast. Black holes have a singularity in the middle, and an event horizon around them. There is no singularity at the event horizon, and that is all that we can see..
> Here is the ISPC implementation

Line 36 computes ymm6 = (ymm6 * mem) + ymm4, the next instruction on line 37 computes ymm6 = (ymm8 * mem) + ymm6

These two instructions form a dependency chain. The CPU can’t start the instruction on line 37 before the one on line 36 has made a result. That gonna take 5-6 CPU cycles depending on CPU model. Same happens for ymm5 vector between instructions on line 38 and 41, and in a few other places.

In the reference code all 4 FMA instructions in the body of the loop are independent from each other, a CPU will run all 4 of them in parallel. The data dependencies are across loop iterations, only the complete loop is limited to 4-5 cycles/iteration. That’s OK because the throughput limit (probably not the FMA throughput though, I think load ports throughput is saturated before FMA, especially for unaligned inputs) is smaller than that.
Upvoting as good idea, but most routers I know, evening running custom firmware, don't support delegating a wan prefix on request from lan side.

As someone with a past life on the Ops/Sysadmin side of the house, this is a enterprise nightmare.

Enterprise may not be the targeted market at this point, but its a cash cow that would be hard to chase (Especially given M1 hurts the consumer side). A number of VDI/Terminal protocols solved this problem a long time ago.
Yes, but without those reasons these are just ambiguous unprovable statements.

Without reasoning we cannot tell if the auxiliary verb is even correct.

“I can’t eat meat anymore because it’s illegal”, really should read “I shouldn’t eat meat anymore” as although it’s a bad idea you’re still physically capable of eating meat.

I think the issue we’re talking about is ambiguity, and this really just emphasises the point.

Looks like YouTube and Google Cloud Platform drove the gains, not search.
The ratio of available apps of Android without gapps over pinephone is still more than 1000 fold, despite SafetyNet or other reliances on Google.

For push notifications, microg does fill the gap, so I'm not sure what you're talking about. UnifiedPush is coming to fill this gap without violating Google's ToC, with self-hosting, and fully FLOSS. Is anything like that coming to PinePhone or Librem?

The Google phone-home "features" can be removed, and this is exactly the point of this thread. Android is opensource, you can control this platform however you want, especially removing all connections to Google services.

I'm guessing what you're saying is that you installed some custom Android ROM, and expected it to remove any Google tracker, but that's a wrong assumption, most Android ROMs don't target deGoogling.

Even my AOSP GSI, with FLOSS variant doesn't target removing Google phone-home features. Why? I don't approve of any data collection on Google's DNS, AGPS, or generate 204, which means it is illegal for them to use it to track me without my consent, and I believe that they are not total outlaws. Running a DNS, AGPS, or even generate 204 reliable infrastructure is hard.
I’m very fearful of the incentives that come with making infrastructure easier and cheaper to install. We already have issues around sprawl, which is a gigantic waste of resources. Making it easier for people to extend their last miles puts an undue strain on the system and the environment.

Maybe centering such infrastructure around self containment would prevent some of that but in itself seems wasteful (everyone needs their own water pump, sewage system and electrical generation management equipment?)

I just looked it up, and it is a violation of the fact that the laws of physics should be reversible. So from the wave function at any point of time you should be able to reconstruct the wave at any other.

Huh. Wait, aircraft use float based fuel gauges still? I thought everything had gone electro-resistive since you'll get the same measurement regardless of orientation of the tank if you place your sensors right.

I remember coming across that as a specific design challenge to overcome. Floats don't read the same when flying upside-down.

In case you are selectively forwarding mail, I’d suggest forwardemail.net Wild card or specify addresses. It’s been a game changer for me to centralise email across side projects and mini sites. Also fully functional on the free plan.

Too many solutions just didn’t quite work, or were a pain to setup. Losing email sucks, and not knowing you’re missing them leads to unnecessary paranoia.
The reason that CIA contact at any point is significant is that, unlike an ordinary investment house, US intelligence agencies as a matter of course act to keep their activity secret. It stands to reason that this implies that any visible CIA involvement would indicate much invisible involvement by The Agency - and various ex-CIA agents who've gone public have basically confirmed this.

So getting funding from the CIA really is different from other thing - possibly. But the situation of all this not being known and being officially concealed produces a lot of paradoxes.

I consider the couple years I built systems in Erlang to be fundamental for me. It's affected, for better and worse, my entire approach to system design, at every level. It's meant the stuff I or (now that I'm in management) my teams tend to write is incredibly resilient (compared with the other teams in the department), but also meant that I have a really hard time with any Silicon Valley interview.
As a particle, you continuously accelerate even after the event horizon (which you don't realize).
Immediately after you passed the horizon, any photon you can send won't ever leave the black hole.

What outside observers will see "frozen" is the instant just before you cross the horizon. A bit like if your image 1ms before you cross the horizon will be seen by the observers years after, your image 1µs before will be seen millions of years after, etc...
No, you _will_ not do that, and made that decision so long ago it feels inviolable to you.

When someone points a gun at a cashier and says "this is a robbery and I'm gonna shoot you if you move a muscle," the cashier usually uses their ability to hold still out of concern for their safety.

I still don't buy into epochs at the industrial scale languages like C and C++ are used today.

It relies on using the same compiler for the whole project, no use of binary libraries, or language semantic changes, for the whole idea of mixing epochs to work out.

I agree with that - but if you take an unchanged core and manufacture it at a different node, then you won't see a change in IPC, which in my book makes it questionable to attribute IPC gains to the process node.
