Ah, that's an excellent point, and it does muddle the water about which would win out.

Deletes could still leave holes in the storage array, but I think I agree (and your article also states it) that the common case is likely fill table with data, and then perform lookups.

(And I had thought bucket-based hashmaps had very much fallen out of favor to the point where they really weren't the choice of standard libraries anymore, precisely because of the additional allocations & pointer chasing they required? I'm not a Java person.)

The MT6737 is a chip that works as I have described. The baseband is fully accessible. Even for other more common chips, like the Qualcomm ones, the AT command set is actually synthesized with shared memory as I detailed. These coprocessors are not microcontrollers, they are realtime application processors and may have MMUs.

Are you a California resident? The Carvana terms of use document[1] describes how to request the deletion of your personal information under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). The fact that they have a process to comply with CCPA requests suggests that they technically can delete personal information, but they're not going to bother if you're not a California resident.

Speculation: visual programming is a bit more beginner friendly, and more compatible with the brains of people designing stuff in UE. I wish blueprint was around when I was 13, messing around in UT’s version of UE and having no idea what unreal script could do. Visual language can break out all possible components into UI menus, just like everything else in UE. Visual oriented people really click with tools like visual programming.

Personally I think it’s cynical / arbitrary to pin the decision to corporate power struggles. Sometimes people propose new things out of interest or as a side project and then it grows from there.

I always forget about the info command, even though it's mentioned in most man pages. So I typed "info bash", and went looking for the "set" command with my almost null knowledge of the info command. It took me a while, but I eventually found it's description under indexes/built-in index/set. It was surprisingly more difficult to find than just looking in the man page, but did take me much less time since I didn't need to skim the whole document to find it. Typing "info info" was actually really helpful, though. Info has a lot more power than I knew about. Typing "i set" while in info brought me right to the set command description. Guess I should learn the tools a bit better.
I'm not quite there, but close to being bilingual (binumeral?) between decimal and hex, and I think it's all about developing better intuition for each digit and their relationships.

For instance, you say 0x9C... that's just over half (0x80) of 0x100, close to 2/3rds (0xAA). Given in embedded we're often using a byte to represent a quantity, that gives enough feel.

I should practice multiplying hex by hand, I reckon that would assist in getting there.
I was born with multiple heart defects, my first memory is my first surgery at three, every few years it seemed I needed another surgery. I even had procedures around 10 where they left me awake and I got to see the inside of my own heart.

So I can speak to this, because it's been my entire life, and because I've had to think about it on my own in the early days, since you don't have peers that can discuss death and existential meaning from 5-12.

You know what is the best feeling in the world? After all the striving and effort, relationships, etc.. it's the black stillness when you pass from time and space, and it may freak you out conceptually, but it is actually delightful to not experience anything, before each procedure and before I went under I always knew I might die and after the first time I always was a little disappointed when my eyes opened again. It's just that good.

Ok, so why am I still alive? I'm curious and I have nothing to lose by sticking around to see if anything insane happens while I am alive, there's a lot of weird and interesting things in the world, not everything under the sun has been seen, new things appear constantly.

As a kid I once watched ants climbing a porcelain wall, and I had just learned that soap stops their trail, so I tried it and it did... and congestion backed up and they were lost, and I wondered what would happen, and after a bit I saw down near the bottom of this wall an ant moving fast and the other ants moved from its path ever so slightly so it was like watching the wake of a boat, and this ant got to the line and launched itself over, into the unknown and reopened the path, and this happened each time... and I realized that those ants were badasses and terminally cool, and that's how I wanted to live. Always exploring new paths.

The famous man and the poor man's experience in the grave is the great equalizer, everything in between, including the mundane can be unbound newness if you have and cultivate genuine wonder and curiosity.. and ultimately embrace intellectual humility.. we have no idea where existence might take us next, what a curious life and time.
I bought an Acer Nitro laptop through amazon about a year ago(i7, 16GB, rtx2060.) For me, all bios settings were available just some hidden by default, so it only took a quick google. Added hds and did a dual boot. I'm happy with mine which was $150-200 cheaper than cheapest equivalent hardware. I just have to live with the ugly red gamer look but otherwise nice design. My only issue is that when lifting with one hand grabbing the bottom right corner, the case flexes just enough to make scary sounds right where the spinning disk is located(me handling it badly, but I do like aluminum.) Some have mentioned cooling; mine is well done and the fan software actually nice. Good value.

This is a neat concept. I like the random placement of messages on screen with the fade out. Well done!
It also drives them to stores which take a significant financial cut.
So, after 14 months of isolation and being in front of screens this person feels unhappy? And the cure is to be grateful and find awe in the small things because some study said such and such?

When did we forget we are still social animals?

The cure is to be in contact with nature and with fellow human beings (better if both are at the same time), but sadly even before the pandemic this was kind of a luxury.
It is as if most people don't want to go out or interact with other people anymore. It's all about streaming services, social media and competition.

The biggest challenge with visual programming is you have to reinvent every text-based tool.

And there are a lot of them.

The amount of ewaste in something tiny like a pair of Airpods is... tiny. Because they are physically small.

Probably Airpods thrown away every 2 years for 50 years is less ewaste than a single laptop, and those don't last 50 years.

So does banning Airpod-like devices really make sense as a policy to minimise total ewaste?
No one has one - none have shipped. Your backer position is irrelevant right now. If they had released a batch of 2000 and you missed out, yes I'd be upset. They are still fine tuning their tooling to mass produce. It's way behind schedule, but with everything on kickstarter - allow for 2x the time to avoid disappointment.

I can possibly see this as a misunderstanding of the Apple KB from a lay-person who happens to be reading it, but it’s unacceptable from someone who is publishing an article about it, especially on a site seemingly dedicated to electronics.

If they weren't being sold then, again, the amount available to buy is unchanged.
Democratization is not about making the correct decision or investment strategy. It is about your freedom and ability to make decisions. Robinhood allowed people the choice to buy, sell or not do either, daily easily and from anywhere. That is democratization.

> It was $62 degrees Fahrenheit yesterday. I can't just go displaying that in a program. Nor is it meaningful to me without a decimal conversion.

It's just as meaningless to me even if you do the conversion to base10 for display... I don't do deg F intuitively and would have to convert to Celsius in my head. It's all about what we are familiar with.

We had a physics prof infamous for "randomly" regrouping a bunch of constants into a new unitless (or just combined) constant. Except he never explained it; a new "α'" would just appear and bunch of old constants were gone! It was frustrating at first, but then we discovered how handy it was to do and our cohort nicknamed the "method" after him. It was common to ask each other 'did you "Rebka-tize" that term here?'.

No, dip switches are for end user configuration. Radio modules use firmware or other semipermanent and non-user accessible configuration to set frequency bands which is usually for regionalization. There isn’t really a use case for transmitting in global navigation bands outside of malicious jamming or spoofing.
And before that you could just `finger` someone
Yeah, this is going to be yet another "visual programming" topic.

I sort of disagree with the intro to LabVIEW:

> There are a large number of visual programming tools that are roughly in the paradigm of ‘boxes with some arrows between them’, like the LabVIEW example above. I think the technical term for these is ‘node-based’, so that’s what I’ll call them.

There are NOT a "large number" of visual programming tools that are roughly in the paradigm [...] like LabVIEW. I am sure there are some but, really, how many active ones?

Also, "node-based" is not the main concept. The most essential concept of LabVIEW is known as "data-flow" (https://labviewwiki.org/wiki/Data_flow). Data generated by a node "flows" to the other nodes it is connected to and when any node has data on all it's inputs, it executes and produces data which flows to whatever nodes it's connected to. This happens asynchronously. You get concurrency "out of the box" with LabVIEW. That's extremely powerful and much easier to reason about, IMHO, than the concurrency constructs in virtually any mainstream computer language.

I think there's plenty of room for all kinds of languages (both text and visual) as DSL's. If they're well-designed and intuitive, they're like a hot-knife through butter for a domain expert. The nice thing about a really good DSL is that you use it more like a library, whereas with a general purpose language you would be reaching for a framework. It gives you a lot of creative latitude and it feels right. The problems start when people start using them as golden hammers, or use them for things which they're not good at.

On a 16 bit cpu I worked on char, short, and int were all 16 bit words, long and long long were 32 and 64 bits, but doing math with 32 bit words required the C compiler to emmit instructions to manage the 32-bit operations.

Also sizeof(long) was 2 and sizeof(long long) was 4.
Ham radio is as analog as your microwave systems are. I'm not going to convince you to become a ham, but hams have a lot of digital voice and data modes at their disposal.

> Linux on the desktop sort of is similar to Firefox, getting less relevant by the year.

In what sense? Usage of Linux on the desktop is only growing.
Nope. Why spend money on something that's most likely going to fail again? Those $300 will be better spent on a new laptop from a more reliable company.

Also, I didn't lose $2000, I bought a $2000 life lesson: never buy Razer products.
Yeah let's ignore the cynical part.

Whatever, it's already done and text scripting language is not coming back for UE.
> How many frustrated autobahn drivers will oppose CO2 reduction efforts elsewhere?

Yeah, that is a good point. It must be weighed whether these particular 0.3% are worth it against other potentially contentious issues (and we should additionally consider whether it is likely to become more in the future, or if it's simply a large enough number to matter over the years regardless), hence also my cagey phrasing of "I'm not arguing the Autobahn [in particular] must be high on the priority list".

Still, though, simply pointing at cruise ships and forgetting about potential gains here is not the most constructive thing to do in my opinion.
I was going to say that I installed Linux on plenty of 286s back in the day, but after thinking about it some more, they must have all been 386s. My first few Linux systems involved manually compiling the kernel and downloading and compiling individual GNU tools one at a time. The first kernel version I remember installing was 0.96, right around September 1992.

And then there's those of us Americans who've already been sacrificing nearly our entire lives to try to protect the environment because we were taught young that we only have the one planet, and if we trash it, it's pretty much over. Those of us who remember when climatologists first warned about climate change and took it seriously. Those of us who've tolerated insults and ridicule over our "paranoia", and still to this day get ridiculed by those who still don't believe climate change is a thing, or that it's affected by human activity. But hey, Americans aren't willing to do anything about climate change... Yeah, whatever... It's our politicians and their corporate owners that don't want to do anything about anything. And like most governments in the world today, "we the people" no longer have any control over our "public servants". They pretty much just do as they want whether we like it or not. Doesn't really matter who we vote in to office if all the candidates we're offered are already corrupt corporate puppets from the get-go.

For example, the lawnmower. What a fun way to do something that was probably not very fun to do before. Everyone was bending over and using scythes or some shit to cut their grass, and then lawnmower guy was like "What if I had a wheel full of of scythes that spin around, and I could push it?" And then he had one, because he built one, and it worked. Wish come true, good for him.

I think they're referring to the fact that there is one dimensionless base unit already standardized in SI: the mole. There aren't two length units, so there "shouldn't be" two dimensionless ones.
