Take, for example, f(x) = x*x. Its matrix would be: f = [0, 1, 4, 9, 16].
yes, I've been lucky to not get it. But many friends/family got sick. Again, so far I was lucky that they are all ok. But there were scary moments, and a friend (even if somewhat distant one) is in ICU in hospital right now. Covid is very much present in our lives. I did not see those things ont TV, and luck has played a part in the outcome. I don't like pushing my luck for a long time, it hast to run out.
Well, kind of. It's obviously a matter of personal taste but we've had GbE for two decades whereas even with 802.11ax you are lucky to get more than 500 Mbps. It's extremely useful not just for the Internet but mainly for local network communication. Why have a bottleneck when you can have much higher speeds?

More importantly, it sends a message to other vendors they shouldn't remove the Ethernet port too hastily. Apple won't listen, someone else might. Really, too many companies seem to reason "Apple removed it so can we." At least someone can point out: "Nintendo did it, too, and later regretted it."
All of the enterprise US Intelligence Community developer platforms I worked on used the Atlassian suite. And, so far, all of the DoD ones I've been working on have used Gitlab.

Selling to military, spy agencies, and law enforcement is not in any way unique to Microsoft and GitHub.
There are two things going on here:

- There's strong evidence that it's not bioengineered; scientists used very strong and convincing language here.

- There was initially hope of finding the zoonotic reservoir; scientists used couched language here to subtly detangle a natural virus vs. a natural virus that had adapted to passage in cell culture in a lab, and had priors assuming a zoonotic source would be found.

Guess which language journalists glommed onto.

Looking for co-founder(s) in area ASIC Design/Verification/Tooling/Services, preferrably with good market understanding.
I've have a chunk of experience in the industry both as designer & verificator and was trying to throw multiple ideas to start something own in that industry, but nothing sticks so far. Have deep understanding of VPI, how simulators and backend (synthesis and STA) work, so tooling may also be an option. Would also opt for a full turnkey SoC, if a good market niche is found.

Yes, agreed, planning to a certain extent is vital. Thanks for your input!
I don't think this was the right thing to do for end users. The largest perceived element on the page is still the map on the right, and it takes as much time to load as before the change.

They are just gaming the metrics changing what the LCP measures with no added value to the users.

For context: on the linux rust support thread there was a discussion about little-endian vs big endian. But nobody seemed to say anything about the bit-order.

Perhaps a more fitting replacement for 'fall' is "failure to rise".

The Roman empire had plenty of places to expand to (much of Africa, all of Russia/Asia). Yet they didn't manage that.
That's a good point but while they have managed to successfully dehumanise the palestinians in the eyes of their own population, that's less true internationally - even in the US. This provides yet another excuse for them to flout when being confronted for their war crimes.
Yup. This wouldn’t get nearly the same amount of attention if the title were “Poisson’s equation is the most powerful tool in your toolbox for finding steady-state solutions to the heat equation with arbitrarily placed sources”
You can buy purely mechanical versions with adjustable resistance. I got one a couple of years ago.

Breathing sounds easy but it is real exercise if you set the resistance high enough. I found it unpleasant and stopped doing it, especially because the device gets kind of gross and needs frequent disassembly for washing according to the manual. But I really should probably start again given the low time investment and multiple studies that show a large blood pressure benefit relative to other interventions.
You're simultaneously claiming that movie viewers have no way to communicate and that Hollywood listens very hard to ticket sales. I think you'll have to pick one.

I agree these are systemic problems, but I think it's a giant mistake to absolve a corporation's execs and employees for moral responsibility for their actions. The social context is also part of the system, and it's one of the easiest parts to change.
The jobs argument can be made for just about anything. People use it when nothing else is valid.

Everything creates jobs. Car crashes, wild fires, drug dealing, sex trafficking, aerial bombing campaigns, it means nothing. Exxon Valdez was the greatest job creator of any ship that sailed that year.

When people say "jobs jobs jobs" just stop listening. Seriously, just walk away. They're saying it's of no value whatsoever and they have to fall back on perennial truisms
Yep. Another plausible cause that doesn't get as much traction is climate change - particularly, the cooling period during the second and third centuries that may have contributed to the fall of the Han dynasty and the Roman crisis of the third century.

Although Rome, China, and (not mentioned earlier) Perisa managed to reconstitute themselves, the subsequent decline in trade both within and across empires had to have had an effect (although to what extent, I'm sure others on here know more about it tham I do).
I really do believe the best solution is a checkbox at install, but the checkbox starts filled. Yes, that's technically OPT-OUT, but it's extremely obvious and in front of you to anyone who actually cares about opting out.
Ah, so it's really about making it harder for other players to improve their product?

As for Audacity - the exact same thing would have happened with any other Open Source license; GPL doesn't make it any easier.
I have been looking for a documentary I saw maybe 10 years ago. I think it was called the History of the VTR.

It focused on the VTR as part of broadcast television. And I vaguely remember a section talking about the kind of errors and how they would present themselves in the broadcast.

If anyone know about / remembers / knows where to find this documentary, I would be thankful!

THIS is the way telemetry should be. A completely separate opt-in only add-on. I don't trust flags, I've accidentally forgotten to check them myself countless time.
I hate the term "mind control". It anthropomorphises these weirdly evolved behaviours. Yes it is gross / weird / unsettling that our minds can be affected in ways they don't notice (wait till we see what humans get up to post 2060) but it is not intentional in the way we understand it.

For example we don't think Ebola intentionally causes bodies to necrotise so much they infect everyone around them but that's what happens.
Two reasons:

1) It's not a standard at all. Some guy made a webpage and used the word "we". Even in the GitHub issues there was debate about what having this variable set would mean (e.g. should a call to a formatting service be blocked).

2) One maintainer pointed out that being an early adopter would force them into advocacy that they aren't prepared to do. Judging from how argumentative Sneak was being, there's probably an element of "we don't want to be the vanguard for this bully and his variable"
Is the rainfall there reasonable enough that you could collect what you needed to filter/drink and wash without being too wasteful? Are there large gas bottle deliveries that could handle heating and cooking?

The hermitic relationship removes risk for the hermit buying remote land, I guess. Saves you being caught with somewhere that turns out to be a dud.

Why was it right for end users?

From what I can tell, it just wasn't wrong for end users.
Please don't take my above comment too harshly by the way, I know it could be read as a list of pretty hard criticism, it's really just trying to dive into why the tone seemed off when there isn't one smoking gun. It's a list of the comment could be read like this, not that the comment actually means this.
I agree with your points. The race to the bottom is a problem.

Addressing the international aspect via trade agreements is a good step.

Better unemployment benefits between jobs would help the domestic aspect.
Extend Your Language, Don’t Alter It
Flip that; commuting to work was never a luxury. It was an unseen excess, a cost to your personal time, a cost to your employer for facilities. Having a personal vehicle is a luxury, but being forced to use it is a cost to all parties.
Changing the temperature of the water that drastically is potentially lethal to all sorts of species. It screws up when and where they breed, lay eggs, have access to cool water to cool off in, what plants grow (that is part of a complex ecological web), and might provide an opportunity for growth of harmful bacteria.

FWIW the ET Legacy[0] project remains active, and exists because the Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory code was GPL'd.

I don't know if that's a good example of the 'best aspects of the GPL' that Carmack was talking about, but it's at least certain that all of the work contributed to ET Legacy is work that had the potential to be closed-sourced, but wasn't.

It would be really interesting to see the lineage of open-source projects based on the GPL-licensed id games. The family tree at wikipedia[1] isn't complete (doesn't show ET Legacy, for example), and doesn't differentiate by license.

New Zealand was exceptionally successful, and other areas which tried that strategy weren't so lucky. Some parts of Australia were shut down for something like 9 of the past 18 months. (Sydney is under lockdown orders today!) And I think it's hard to find fault with the strength of lockdowns in France, Spain, or Italy - their lockdowns just didn't fully eliminate transition, so we put them in the "weak lockdown" bucket, even though as a matter of government policy they were doing the same thing.
Bodleian Library Document Viewer

Hey, I'm just interested in the tool - I'm not fussed about ancient books.
They needed an electrical one because studies like data to analyze. You can easily buy a non-electrical one like the Power Breathe, The Breather, PowerLung, etc. Just look up "Breathing Trainers" at Amazon or similar.

As to using "a narrow straw," no, because these resist both your inhale AND exhale, and while it is easy to exhale through a narrow straw trying to inhale just causes the straw to collapse (or you won't get enough air and will have to stop/pass out). They're designed to resist but not limit.

After having tried a breathing trainer, it definitely feels like real exercise even just at your desk, and I cannot imagine doing it for 15-minute sessions via a narrow straw.
Python package management is one of the reasons I can't stand using the language. I'm a self taught developer, and I mostly make specific tools for my coworkers to analyze data and keep track of production manufacturing. When I pick up a language, the last thing I want to do is fight the package manager, especially on distribution. I'm also not fond of how pipenv, an inferior tool to poetry, gets pushed by PyPA seemingly due to the creators involvement with the PSF, but that's just my opinion/speculation.

Rust package manager is good. C# with dotnet cli is by far my favorite set of tools, however I do wish you could publish nuget packages as source libraries.
Can't deny. But to be fair I never said you can't come up with 5 countries either. Tiny nations which are even smaller than cities are always exceptions in all kind of stats. The fact that they had to come up with exceptions validates my point that India not the only democracy which does this. I am not justifying it obviously.

The comment I replied back make it sounds like India is the only democracy which does this and is not a real democracy like the other democracies.

Obviously it's stupid to put activists in jail for bogus claims. And there is no justification in doing it even though other countries are doing it. It's pretty obvious to anyone with a decent IQ.
This will be unpopular, but have you ever heard the phrase "an armed society is a polite society"? Just as you're afraid to stop someone committing a crime because they might be armed (wait, I thought there were strict gun control laws, how can they be armed?! You mean criminals don't obey laws?! /s), an attacker will be hesitant to assault you if they think you are armed.
No. The article goes against what you have been claiming. How did your programmer brain not see the flaws satyarthi is pointing out? Why such shoddy/research or comments on your part?
No need to be accusatory. The stories are different, just the learned behavior is the same. And not very surprising, considering your story was pre-empted by Pac-Man speedrunners, who already discovered this technique, which they call "kiting".

You can see the paper OP wrote to confirm for yourself that their story is not the same as yours: https://uhra.herts.ac.uk/bitstream/handle/2299/15376/906989....
Nothing in GPL prevents Sony from using free labor; most of the companies using Linux do precisely that.
Why do you believe that the best solution is opt out?
What in the parent post is dualist? Sounds more like an argument that animals have embodied intelligence.

But as for being a dualist in the 21st century, there is always consciousness, information and math. All three of which can lead to some form of dualism/platonism.
Also a few other things I can think of:

* browsing while watching/gaming fullscreen

* passive gaming while working

* bringing the phone with you and leaving the laptop/pc for a short period of time

* the numbers are all over the place

I don't know the data for the Israel study, but I'm not sure we can confidently conclude something as specific as "4x higher chance of hospitalization".
I'm unable to figure out how this has anything to do with "being a democracy". Can someone explain that please?
It's the programming language equivalent of the "long march through the institutions".
There is no "probably" about it. Law definitely forbids basically everything that GPL allows, that's why GPL exists: to grant those rights. And of course one would then expect the thankful user to at least honor the same terms. Nothing odd about that to me.
Evaluating Remote-First Practices in a Hybrid Work Model
As a blame-free explanation of why SARS-CoV-2 become so widespread, I think the parent comment is basically correct. From [0], "SARS, caused by a respiratory-tract virus, also failed [to become a pandemic], although it came close to causing a pandemic after its emergence in late 2002. It killed almost 800 people worldwide, but was rapidly stopped mainly because infected people developed symptoms quickly." In contrast, Covid-19 spreads pre-symptomatically, and infections are frequently mild or asymptomatic. The test-trace-isolate containment strategy, such that it was, relied on people acting in response to symptoms. People without symptoms can't do that, and if someone has what feels like a normal cold they're just not very likely to take special precautions, at least early on when the disease is rare and there's still a chance of containment. The pandemic response we prepare for next time needs to compensate for this, such as by adopting proactive disease surveillance or increasing efforts in other areas.

As for the pandemic not being that bad, we did get lucky in a couple ways: it was possible to rapidly develop many vaccines, and the mortality rate was relatively low. Covid, disturbingly, was sort of the least bad version of a global pandemic, at least compared to the alternative scenarios outlined in warnings (e.g., [0]) over the past several decades.

I wish you the best of luck and will be keeping a bookmark to check back frequently. I would love some part time work but having done the consultant grind for a long time I’m just exhausted by the process of finding it. I would love a marketplace I could keep tabs on and pick things up when they make since.
" there's no resources available in my country to offer support"

What did your ancestors do for 10 000 years up until public healthcare in rich nations? How did they stick it out so that eventually you could prosper? And FYI I'm not sure there are any public resources in most rich nations for this kind of support anyhow.

We're over the worst of it, the data on D variant is just a warning to maintain vigilance.

Keep your chin up.
How so? You sound more like - how dare you criticize someone I blindly support? Do you even have an argument to make?

Probably older, and then also the vaccinated people that seek medical care likely had less of an immune response to the vaccine.
Yes. You can compile arbitrary code at runtime. You can "extract" a function generated with libgccjit as a function pointer and use it in your static code.
Honest question: are these things actually surprising to people? All of the things admitted to seem pretty standard for lobbyists of large companies with less than stellar ethics. That applies to tech companies, too.
The whole map, yes - and it still is the largest element on the page by far. The LCP score was being based on each map tile.

We don't have AI. AI is a buzzphrase overused by the media. What we have is Machine Learning (ML). If and only if, we get past the roadblock of the 'agent' creating some usable knowledge out of an unprogrammed experience, and forming conclusions based on that, will we have AI. For now, the mantra 'Garbage-in-garbage-out' applies; if the controller of the agent gets their rule-set wrong, the agent will not behave as expected. This is not AI. The agent hasn't learnt by itself that it is wrong.

For example, there's a small child who is learning to walk. The child falls down a lot. Eventually the child will work out a long list of arbitrary negatives connected to its wellbeing that are associated with falling down.

However, the parents, being impatient, reach inside the child's head and directly tweak some variables so that the child has more dread of falling over than they do of walking. Did the child learn this, or was it told ?

We currently do the latter every time an agent gets something wrong. Left to their own devices, 99.9% of agents will continue to fall down over and over again until the end of time.

We have a long way to go before we can say we've created 'AI'.

Excellent! I really like the idea of doing a lot of small, unique exercises. Even something as simple as, "Okay, you built a linked list of integers, now start from an empty file and write a linked list of floats, then do the same for structs (which is going to add some interesting complexity)."

Very interesting, winding road! Great anecdote laying out how things work out somewhat on their own (you did end up learning Node and JS somehow :) ). Thanks for writing it down, loved it!
Cracking skulls is actually the more humane solution. If a city makes harsh examples of a few criminals, it dissuades many more potential criminals from ever getting started.

Allowing criminals and homeless to run rampant will lead to the rapid increases in both we have seen in SF. Then there still will be an inevitable backlash, and that will involve the cracking of far more skulls than would have happened by doing it early. If a city never enforces its laws, the criminals will crack far more innocent skulls.

You can't escape the cracking of skulls, you just choose who does the cracking and how many get hurt.
The assumption should be that the user does not want to be tracked. A ENV stating that is pointless. Scripts that would adopt this are already respecting you by having you opt-in to tracking. It does nothing, and promotes opt-out as the preferred way of showing consent, which is decidedly wrong.
