It's quite interesting how present intel gpus are in the list, which probably tells something about the code on them...
There seems to be an issue with compiling FFmpeg to wasm which prevents it from working on Firefox
The only problem is there’s no indication on the pager whether or not you’re in range

The pager I had in 2003 has a signal strength indicator just like a cell phone so you know if you are in range.

The pager was also able to let the network know if the message was received. If it didn't, the network would keep retrying until it got an ACK.
After reading your comment I think I agree with you. Most software nowadays requires you to update if you want it to keep working. You cannot play an online videogame without updating to the latest version. There is typically no way to use a previuse version of a website or web app.

We have gotten more entitled and now when we see something that doesn't exactly meet our liking then we cry about it.
From memory you don't need size to be a prime, what you need is that it is coprime with your step.

Thus, the easiest solution is to take a step-size that is prime and different from you size (that works for any size). Given the index of the current element, the next index would be `(current_index + step) % size`.

Funny. :) I've learned much more using pinephone than I ever did using Androids or iPhones I had been lent for testing from a companies I did jobs for. Here's what I've learned for example: https://xnux.eu/devices/pine64-pinephone.html

I just don't want to learn something that will be completely useless to me, because I'm not interested in commercial mobile apps development for Android, and that's about anything that learning android development will gain me, other than hobby points.

Learning general Linux programming and system design has cross-over effects into pretty much everything I do as a hobby or for my clients.

With pinephone (or any other GNU/Linux phone, for that matter), pretty much anything I wrote is portable to all other devices I have use for, incl. my desktop and I re-use code very often. Devices like e-book reader I've reverse engineered, which is not based on Android, or other weird little devices I have and like to mess around with that don't run Android.

I can learn some obscure Android API abstraction that works only on Android, or I can learn lower level Linux API (that it's using under the wraps anyway), that is fixed in stone, and usable everywhere Linux runs. I just choose what to learn based on what I can use more widely and will stay around longer.

If anything it's people who will not consider anything else but Android, and just handwavily reject anything else like many posters in the comments under this article, who seem resistant to learning something new.
Is there any research how to make tires shed less plastic and carbon black?
Modern cars crumple so that they absorb more of the energy of the collision sacrificing the car's body for your body. Massive vehicles of the antique era had a horrific safety record. People in fact used to believe that collisions at highway speed were unsurvivable by nature. People who imagine that having the heavier more rigid car renders them safer because their car will just go through the other car leaving them safe misunderstand physics and safety.

In the context of current cars classic volves are pretty garbage too. Here is a 90s volvo being absolutely smeared by a renault 10-20 years newer

Think Black CEOs are scarce? It’s worse than you think
IF my Dad were alive and here and lucid (he had dementia the last five years of his life) he could give details of similar actions by the Russians and the US from basically the late 50's to the late 70's, which was the span of time of his having worked for obscure three-letter agencies.

Oh, and willing to talk. He only talked to me, his son, about a friend of his who he thought was killed by the Russians twice over a forty-year period.

But anyway, I suspect based on that that it's happened plenty of times before without retaliation.

>Either way ny point is that right now, today, there is no excuse not to act. Unless maybe they still haven't figured out what is happening and who is responsible.

I doubt we can; I think the OPM hack has lead on to further intelligence failures, to the point where we can't tell what's going on, can't count on the three letter agencies to tell us the truth about stuff, and can't effectively defend ourselves as a result.

I think that's part of why the allegedly natural virus hit us so hard. One failure leads to the next.
I've tried to use the mic on my airpods with my windows desktop once -- Bluetooth 4 mic output _definitely_ sounds like what he's describing. It's godawful and certainly an effective way to mete out punishment to those vendors you dislike via conference call. It's an immediate headache.
Signal was intentionally not using aggressive antisemitism the same way, whole nazi germany got very soft before the olympics 1936 in germany - to spread a false image. Propaganda. So people not yet occupied get a wrong image like "maybe the Nazis are not so bad after all and we can still do buisness". German resistance groups struggled hard to get evidence out. And then it was not believed, because of propaganda like this.

Signal on its own might have been not that big factor, but it was no random butterfly, but willingly part of the bigger propaganda machine, which main purpose was to support nazi domination, which includes the holocaust.
There was in the United States. But it was pretty expensive.

Pagers hung in for a long time because they had far better coverage than cell phones. I don't know if that's still the case.

It really depends on the software: I have a maintenance contract for LispWorks and, whenever I report a bug, I get a custom patch and/or a resolution in an impressively short window. For a lot of SAAS-type products (JIRA, for example), oftentimes the users are fairly decoupled from the company: since the admins/purchasing people have more contact with the vendor, but less direct usage of the software, it’s harder to get this sort of support.
They can sell NFTs of them, and you can also sell NFTs of them. Anyone can sell NFTs of anything. They're just an attempt to impose artificial scarcity on a post-scarcity commodity (which is to say, bits in a database).
I guarantee this kills the Fulfilled-by-Amazon. Amazon works under the pretense of physical cache-as-a-service. If they have to start binning things based on sellers, they'll have to completely rearchitect their space management. They have to do this in a limited sense anyway with some products, but if it has to be done for everything, the space requirements would explode, as would picking time in the transition period to get a particular seller's product.

They can't just use APC/UPC anymore, because they'd have to accomodate the potential of sellers with a wide variety of products independently stored, even when not in use. This changes the FBA workability to only favor big actors, which admittedly, is exactly what people seem to expect.

Amazon works as well as it does because all the hoops everyone else has to jump through just haven't been held against them. It's no wonder they were an investor's darling.

Note: This is how I'd have started approaching building Amazon's logistics/FBA branch. Basically a library of physical goods. There's no way to know if they had started out that way whether they'd be in the position they are in now, but it is clear to me the direction many consumers want them to go.
I have an 11 pro without a case on it and just tried replicating what you're describing and I can't do it.

It pivots at most 1-2mm laterally to the left when i'm tapping hard on the left side of the screen which is barely noticeable. When I tap normally (a bit softer) or swipe it doesn't even move.

I'm no fanboy but i'm amazed that out of all the things you could critique about Apple it would be this one.
But I thought we don’t really know what causes UC. Fungi? Bacteria? Genetic factors? Something else?

Who else should be judging a company’s culture?
I've had this attitude before, but I must say, the recent iPhones at least (iPhone 11 in my case) are ridiculously resistant to damage.

Mine is not in a case and regularly has scary-looking falls, but there's almost no-scratch. Only on the edges of the aluminum body you can see the paint scratched off in some places.

I've found that the added bulk of a case makes me drop my phone much more frequently.
The more boring explanation: Egypt wants to control the exploitation of Pharaonic material culture under their control, which they consider their cultural patrimony. If they can't do the tests and get the glory, they don't want others to do so instead. For an example of this, see Hawass' decision preventing foreigners from doing DNA testing of mummies in Egypt, dismissing it as useless, followed by him personally publishing such work a decade later.

In any case, there is plenty of Old Kingdom material in foreign museums that is available for testing.
As you are officially discouraged to use new and delete directly (https://isocpp.github.io/CppCoreGuidelines/CppCoreGuidelines...) and I fully agree with this guideline, I was disappointed to see new being mentioned so early and not immediately being followed up with std::unique_ptr and std::shared_ptr. Especially because you introduced the constructor/destructor subsection with how destructors can be used to free memory. A general mention of std::shared_ptr would have been expected as well, I think.

It is unfortunate that many learning resources don't show modern C++ so the language is perceived worse than it is and also more bugs are written, than is necessary.

I have both laser and inkjet printers.
Inkjet is for color, photos, and its scanning capabilities. Got a laser for printing papers during master and Ph.D.

Mine has split drum and toner. Its life is very long, but I need to find a new drum for it soonish, and it's a bit hard to find. Also Samsung's transfer to HP isn't helping.

Don't want to throw it away because it's a small business printer and a flawless machine from my point of view.

> When did we all become so paranoid?

One industry that makes extensive use of pagers is health care. Frequently, personal and identifying information (PII) is transmitted over pages. By all rights, this is a violation of privacy laws (e.g. HIPAA).

Why does a desire for privacy constitute paranoia?

Pagers aren't only a technology of yesteryear -- they're still in use by millions of hospital staff. Despite the availability of cheap & easy strong crypto today, the technology is still stuck in the past. I'd wonder why, but upgrading infrastructure is expensive and it will probably take a class-action suit to make continued privacy violations more expensive than upgrades.
If you like lisp and you like python you might like libpython-clj
Worth noting that the exposure at the Moscow embassy was a fraction of what you would get from a cellphone in your pocket. So I don’t think it’s a good way to show that this is safe.
Even the tech stuff posted on HN has a political or some sort of a ranty slant to it that it's gotten so damn tiresome. I wish we had a proper HN without any of the political, fiscal, housing, nutrition/dietary, etc bullshit. Just post solid articles on tech and startups. Preferably actionable ones so it's not just a comment minefield of circlejerking from people who have an opinion but have zero idea what they are talking about. Take that shit elsewhere.
The algorithm is also extremely simple, I've seen code golf with less than 100 char in most languages, and realistically just a couple lines of code.

I like that you can recursively add more precision after the plus, as well as truncate some of the start if you provide context like the country or city. For example all of Montreal lives within the "87Q8" block, so I can just truncate that away if I specify that I'm in Montreal.

I imagine a direct beam would cause visible burns, but something that never occurred to me is using beamforming to zap inside someone's head. Yikes.

My takeaway is that:

a) Charlie Warzel has never run an organization or group of any size.

2) He comes to this tempest-in-a-teapot with a strong POV.

Is he right? wrong? neither? You might as well listen to the guy on the next barstool over. That's the nature of the modern op-ed.

If you see multiple "offenders" in the same thread, it's because the implicit critique is pointed at the same place in the folly of the author's main point, which is ironically due to the lack of curiosity of the research behind the ideas of the Enlightenment.

I have found it to be a fairly common issue among defenders of certain faiths where they take a popular philosophical stance that was delevoped through Enlightenment thinking or other philosophical countercurrents and ascribe a religious source.

You're not gonna find a lot of fans for honestly discussing this as a worthy point because it is simply ahistorical and goes counter to the principles of the very same authors of said ideas. It's really doesn't take much research to debunk this.
How would that achieve what the other poster is saying, which is to heat the insides more than the surface? Wouldn't that just heat both the insides and the surface more evenly?
It likely came about in written form then was moved to speech.

I’m in agreement with you that é is the natural neutral replacement letter. But I don’t think this is a serious attempt to change the language so much as a serious attempt to signal group membership.
Employees, nor executives decide whether culture is good. Customers do.

Business basics such as "The customer is always right" are so banal and correct at the same time.

If a company doesn't deliver value to somebody somewhere, all this extra talk does not matter.
Cell culture technology has been in use for decades around the world for many other vaccines, going back 35 years at least (e.g. rabies/polio).

Genetic/DNA vaccines are new.
> Java applets had built-in access to the complete filesystem, network, shared memory etc.

This is definitely not true:

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/deployment/applet/se...

It says you can only access the local filesystem from "privileged applets" that are explicitly allowed to run outside the sandbox.
I work in the industry dealing with art/design, and the only thing I really see NFT being useful for is a chain of custody to prove authenticity - but that only applies to newly created works, as with historic pieces you're already at a crapshoot on specialists validating stuff correctly.

edit: i use the term 'historic' loosely, i just mean stuff that has been circulating for a while.
Myocarditis is significantly under-diagnosed in young adults, but is believed to be on the order of 10 cases per 100,00 per year in the population.

No, but it’s kind of similar to have/have got.

Some people are spending hundreds of thousands of dollars every year on maintaining a fishing line around Manhatten. This isn’t “dumbing it down”, it’s just literally the facts of what is going on. Explaining that there are tons more you could dig into about these peoples beliefs around the holy powers of this fishing line and exactly when they do and do not work doesn’t escape the fact that it is dumb.

If someone is wearing a tinfoil hat, his lengthy explanations about the capabilities of American and Russian intelligence agencies capabilities doesn’t make it sound less dumb.
No, nothing to do with bootstraping, this is completely different. My point is that you cannot develop the very algorithms that you are using. Numerical math is not only about using ready-made algorithms, it is mostly about implementing new algorithms. For example, if you invent a new matrix factorization algorithm, it is very likely that you cannot implement it in Python (or if you can, it will be either very slow or very cumbersome). Python+numpy is not a natural way to write many numerical algorithms, based on explicit loops and new conditions inside them. Whereas in Fortran or in C, the implementation is likely to be much simpler, natural and fast.
Customers should definitely be part of it. A company might be a great, egalitarian place to work, but have a predatory business model.
> There is no reason that things can't be faster that "operation warp speed" all the time.

Because money. Operation warp speed started mass manufacturing at the same time as clinical trials. 70% of drugs fail the 3rd stage of trials, so that would be a hugely wasteful endeavor to parallelize this when failure is the norm.

Problem is that Bob cannot do "air". When he paints the distant misty mountain with full contrasts and color, it will do ok on its own. But then he adds the wheelbarrow with same set of colors and the mountain is not distant anymore and painting becomes annoyingly flat.
No, you're right. The screen makes it a LOT bigger than the iPhone SE (what I had used, previously).

But it's just at the upper limit at what I can do one-handed.

I traded in an XS Max for it. I don't miss that big honker, one bit. I use it as a test device, nowadays.
Depends on the place and time? they were going to lynch a black man for marrying a white woman but they got off since she was from Sicily and thus considered "not white", somewhere in the 1800s [citation needed]

It's not having lots of things installed. It's actually using them. Basically how much custom elisp is running in your buffer.
> There is no reason that things can't be faster that "operation warp speed" all the time.

Safety? I'm not wild about new vaccines requiring emergency use authorization and indemnity for the manufacturer. It worked out fine for COVID, but this is not a model I would _want_ to replicate.
I was at the beach a couple days ago and dug two excellent holes, one was artistic in nature an the other was a nice holder for a bottle of wine.

In this case though I agree dockers move is a bit bait and switch but I see thing like Sublime differently. In the 90s my uncle paid for winzip and I, as a dumb teen started saying how dumb he was. He didn’t skip a beat and just said: ‘they gotta eat those people’. It always stuck with me. Now that I have income, I pay for software.
A standard for global addressing should not rely on a proprietary algorithm or wordlist, as it means that there is no legal method for using the standard besides using (paying for) What3Words’ API. This fits the common definition of rent-seeking behavior.

This couples with the technological issues outlined in the article above. I believe the vitriol against W3W is fueled by the combination of rent-seeking behavior on a standard of poor technical quality.

I’m also bothered that one of the main use cases W3W’s marketing highlights is for specifying locations in emergencies, a totally non-commercial/public-good application. W3W presents itself convincingly to laymen as this sort of public-good open standard, but they’re just another startup with a proprietary product they’re hoping to monopolize.
The hate is because they patented it. It is a useful idea, but it would be far more useful if the algorithm and wordlist were public domain and didn't require a license to use it.
Eh. Old Blizzard vs EA.

Both are gaming companies. Both serve similar segments.

Customers, shareholders, competitors. The goal of good culture, I think, is to create great products. If the employees are all ecstatic and the products suck for customers then I won’t buy them. Similarly if capital returns or poor then as a shareholder I won’t invest.
Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is lye, which shouldn't be consumed. Pretzel salt is sodium chloride (NaCL).
No and yes. We have a couple of thousand subscription customers using Paypal, which is a pain to switch. It's forcing us to look into other payment providers (like Stripe, which so far, doesn't appear to be evil like Paypal)

This is my impression, too. When I was TAing an intro CS course back in university, I saw students new to programming struggling with Lisp (specifically Scheme in this case) much earlier in the learning process than even C.

This manifested in a few spots. The first is, yes, s-expressions. Yes, yes, I know, s-expressions are integral to the power of lisp, and they're really not hard to read once you get used to them. All of that is beside the point. The reality I saw on the ground, when teaching people to program, is that even people who have no prior programming experience whatsoever, and therefore no preconceptions to get over, have a harder time grasping s-expressions than they do algol-style syntax. I don't know why. I didn't have the same problem myself. But it's a real phenomenon that I struggled to help people through on a regular basis, and the lisp community's defensiveness about it is not going to make it go away.

Arbitrary-seeming names with zero mnemonic value is another problem. Car, cdr, progn, etc. - it takes a special kind of personality to not be put off by this sort of stuff. Not everyone has that kind of personality. Not everyone should have that kind of personality.

Finally, all the hair-splitty (at least to a newcomer) distinctions to contend with. =, eq, eql, equal, and equalp, or let, let* and letrec. Sure, there are reasons for these distinctions. But a language that can get by without quite so many of them is going to be a lot more attractive to newcomers. Even if it comes at the cost of footguns, if they're unlikey to be discovered until later.
I don't mean to be impolite, but it seems like you haven't read any of the links I posted.
