I think that this is a really interesting move by Intel. The conspiracy theorist in me thinks this is an interesting way for Intel to get at TSMC. A few years back there was a cross licensing agreement between TSMC and GlobalFoundries. The agreement is broad, and covers all patents made by TSMC for the next 9 years [1]. It is easy to see how many problems this could create for TSMC. Either the deal is void, in which case TSMC is and has been likely infringing on Global Foundries' (with an acquisition Intel's) patents... Or Intel has a broad cross licensing agreement with TSMC... The deal was good for TSMC at the time, as Global Foundries had given up on more advanced nodes as the investment was just too much for their shareholders, but with new ownership I see it as an interesting weakness.

Intel has historically been willing to play dirty, like messing with compilers to benefit Intel over Amd[2]. Or like when they gave kickbacks to OEMS [2]. Or when they paid vendors to not support AMD fully in software[2]. Or just plain old false advertising [2]. Actions like these is what led to a 1.25 Billion dollar settlement with AMD [3].

Outside of playing dirty, it is a good strategic move for their new foundry business. You get the tools, know how, processes, and most importantly customers that can make the venture a success. Intel has had a foundry business before [4], but they closed it. "ecosystem is everything with the foundry business and that takes time, money, and technical intimacy," [4]. Intel has money, and they are buying the years in the foundry business they missed along with technical intimacy to more standard tools. So, I think it makes sense from a business perspective, as it gives Intel a recurring revenue for its older processes and in turn greater advantage from its vertical integration.

Apple Park is full of glass walls and open offices; information on this is not that hard to find.
Even when facing specialized quantum circuits classical supercomputers are still more cost effective.

Quantum computers can't solve any problems of sizes that occur in industry. There are huge problems with scaling up quantum computers and there are some reasons to doubt that we will ever be able to scale it up as much to break crypto or solve industrial problems.
I pay for software on Steam, too -- but it makes me incredibly nervous consolidating lots of purchased goods with a single walled-garden vendor who holds the keys ; and they never really earned my trust, they're just the only game in town for most titles now.

The internet is filled with stories about locked accounts, lost libraries, games being pulled out of the library due to 'low quality of gameplay' while people are actively playing them on Steam, DLC and in-game currency sold that can never be redeemed or used in the game it's bought for (see: 'Wizardry Online' debacle, Steam/Valve continued selling in-game currency far beyond the point that it was being discussed to remove the game from the library all together.. then removed access from the game for Steam users after making a tidy profit. This was a current/active/new game with a bad launch, not an old title.)

So just to re-state: Valve never won my trust with their behavior with Steam and associated acts. There is just no one else; let's call this phenomenon 'Walmart Syndrome', perhaps?
To me, the thing that excites me about this is more efficient ORM querying of data. Where previously you either had to make multiple queries to fill parent and child relationships (whether on demand of explicitly and prefilling a cache) or make a larger join where a lot of data may be duplicated in 1:N relationships making it inefficient (with a few levels of 1:N relationships chained leading to extremely inefficient data transfer), now you could actually just get a JSON data structure back of exactly what each field should be. There are inefficiencies at scale here as well with duplicated key names, but that can possibly be worked around to a degree with arrays and an array type index of some sort.
That would be very nice.

I'm actually collecting stories about academic abuse from all around the world. The plan is to launch a website with all stories together to get more exposure.

This sort of abuse (not to the degree of what I suffered, but) is quite common within academy, this needs to stop, and the people who perform it/enable it need to be ousted from their positions.
Ubuntu was likely too difficult for Valve to keep modified and up to date for their needs.

Canonical doesn't have any reason to be friendly towards the specific features Valve needs to make SteamOS a thing, and Valve probably doesn't want to maintain their own fork of the entire Ubuntu distro.

Not to mention, a default install of Arch is tiny and minimalist. It's the perfect base to apply your own packages on top of without having to worry too much about conflicts with system packages, or anything else that might break between Ubuntu LTS version updates.

It means Valve can mostly have their own custom distro without having to do most of the work required to maintain a custom distro.

It also means Valve can deploy the latest package of something that boosts gaming performance (like some new graphics driver or whatever), again, without jeopardizing the core os. Arch is well known for being "bleeding edge" and getting the latest packages out immediately which is something gamers (the target audience for SteamOS) want (every single extra FPS matters, etc).
I mean it's pretty easy. If you are seeing GET request in your logs for PHPadmin or Drupal URLs and you're not running those on your server, it's pretty clear they are up to no good and you can block that IP address.
Oh, I see those as freedom, yes, but not that around my person.

Yeah, there's a lot deregulated in Texas, but for personal freedom it is some seriously big government stuff. In the Bay, I can buy and consume weed or psychedelics, I can drink in the park, I can generally be naked. Texas is very big on government policing personal behaviour. They're not really about individuals having freedom around their person.
"don't bring aggression to a microaggression fight".

And skillful NVC is like black belt level of microaggression fight skills.
Facebook has largely the same dominance in Philippines. However, this situation indicts the nations in question more than it credits Facebook. Facebook is like cigarettes or sugared soda. Yes lots of people like it; no it isn't good for them.

There is no reason that social networks have to be run by firms as unethical as Facebook (i.e., there is no reason for social networks to be run as unethically as Facebook's is run). Please don't bore us with any "the market is always right" arguments. The people in "Western" nations who have decided to use Facebook less (and perhaps, other social networks more) have better taste and more agency than the people you're talking about. Those people should also acquire better taste and more agency.
Intel did offer foundry services, at least 3 years ago or so, albeit designing stuff for that node required putting everything in separated environment, and simulating in separate compute farms. Even TSMC which was and is far ahead does not demand this level of paranoia, only documentation is put in secure isolated environment, other stuff being managed in the more reasonable way of unix groups, which are, well, good enough.
I turned down a job because of this very issue. I was ready to sign and when I was reading the terms, it said they would own my side projects during the contract term if I worked on them. Hard no from me.
> only covering 70% battery capacity retention over 100,000 miles

100,000 miles is a pretty standard warranty for a car isn't it? And 70% doesn't sound amazing but your car will still be useful like that.
This is really cool! I made a very similar game a couple years ago: https://jew.ski/prime-time/

It's interesting to compare the game play and design. My game is written in Elm and open source if anyone is interested. This website has keyboard inputs (y or n) which is a good idea. My game only does click/touch inputs.
Apple employees frequent Hacker News, FYI.
With defer it's developer's responsibility to free resources in right order, when one depends on another. Maybe something like this in Zig would be better:

try std.fs.cwd().openFile(path, .{}) |file| : file.close()
{
// ... code ...
// file.close() is called at the end
}
This is so exciting. 1st tier support!
> in that it yields only models that have elements that are larger than every written numeral.

Are these like hyperintegers (or should I say hypernaturals), as in the hyperrreal numbers used in non-standard analysis?
>If you have your childrens iPhones as part of a family setup you can also block their access that way.

Apples allows you to disable their access to install apps, browse the web (with or without restrictions) or use any other installed app. You can turn your childs iPhone into essentially an ipod with facetime (that can only contact you) if you want.

If you give them an unlucked laptop, you are right of course. So don't do that, if you want to go that route.
Google and Facebook both expanded their real estate along the Embarcadero waterfront. On the retail side, Ikea made its first purchase for a retail store in SF. Construction hasn't taken a back seat in SF during the lock down. These stories often get hidden by the catchy headlines of who's shutting down offices and going fully remote.
Yes, Apple uses Slack internally.
> the lack or presence of these things are never deal breakers

Sure, but it can definitely break a tie. Frankly, operator overloading can create some really nice apis. And code that's pleasing to read takes less mental overhead to pick up.
“ People who experience a single random seizure, for instance, are 50 times more likely to become epileptic than someone who has never had one.1 Like Philip’s raven, the same stimuli that preceded the first fit—such as anxiety or a particular musical passage—more readily trigger future episodes. And the more often seizures occur, the stronger and more pervasive the underlying neural network may become, potentially inducing more widespread or more violent attacks.”

This article is a dumpster fire, and based on fundamentally obsolete and harmful beliefs. Yes people that ever have a seizure are more likely to have epilepsy. This says nothing about why, and what follows is all poorly or non researched editorializing. None of what is said here has even weak evidence. Seizures are an objective physiologic phenomenon we can measure. While there are a wide variety of non-specific predispositions to an episode including stress, no one has the authority to claim the above. Furthermore a large class of epileptic seizures are provoked by imageable, physical brain damage and another large portion have no provocation, this isn’t some middle school angst. It also seems to riff off the obsolete notion that epilepsy was mostly due to mental illness/craziness back when those were equivocated.
It's just a pc, you can install any OS you want on it, if anti cheat already works on that OS then it will also work on the Steam Deck.

That sounds like feature branches but with more steps and worse. You can't share your unfinished work non-locally, for one thing. And it has none of the advantages of CI because you still have infrequent large merges.
I feel joy optimizing performance on a simple HTML and SCSS/CSS site. Removing every unnecessary bit of data transfer. Cutting all dependencies. Shrinking images. Just making the thing blazing fast.
> I don't believe there was widespread fraud

They people that do are basing it on no evidence and lies. There aren't two sides to a lie, and it doesn't deserve equal time to the truth.
For Kuiper to catch up they need to solve their launch systems gap with Starlink. I think you're underestimating how hard it is going to be for them to close that gap.
Correct.

The key idea for this project was it's carrot and stick, all UK providers get adult ID they can use to hook billing (a carrot), and then we block all access to any non-UK providers who don't get in line (the stick), thus protecting the schmucks who fell into line rather than leaving. They hope this is enough to pressure global companies into doing the same and once it's the status quo they assume it stays that way through inertia.

The white paper says OK, some Britons will use Tor and there's no a lot we can do about that, but most Britons won't know how or won't bother. We can block everything else by beefing up DNS blocks that big UK ISPs already implement, the remaining ISPs can be forced to do the same or we'll lock them up, it'll cause a few protests and so on but we can weather that with our overwhelming public support.

All that's before TLS 1.3 and before DoH let alone ECH, oblivious DoH, and onwards into the foreseeable future. So today the result is that the "stick" part of the plan doesn't work and it will work less every day, their citizens can trivially choose not to accept the limitation and will do so in huge numbers. Without the stick, the carrot doesn't look very juicy after all, the non-UK market doesn't want your censored ID-requiring site, there's a better one without those problems. And of course today that government looks a lot more tired and unpopular than when this was originally floated.

The price for this quixotic moral crusade continues to soar, the eventual purpose of it remains unclear, eventually maybe Boris' replacement will announce (to applause) that the government has abandoned it, after spending all this time and money to no purpose.
> there has to be a punishment for anybody stupid enough to propose or vote for the bill

It's called treason. For example:

> Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.
If you somehow failed out of at least 8th grade math where you handle fractions, no you don't. Most loan docs give you a amortization schedule that shows you the payments for the life of the loan with how much goes to interest and how much goes toward principal. If you don't get one you can certainly request it.

>what wealth generation from owning part of companies (stocks) is

The average person figures out how businesses are set up when they actually do it, not in high school when they have 0 capital and 0 connections to actually form a legitimate business. On top of that, telling kids to get into stocks is ludicrous. It's essentially telling teaching them about gambling early on. Tell them "Max your 401k to your employers match and if you got more leftover, add more to it." That is like 80% of Americans retirement right there.

>Not teaching is surely incorrect

So should we teach our kids how to survive in a bar brawl or in a shootout too? What about doomsday prepping for when a major catastrophe occurs like a tornado/hurricane/earthquake? All of these scenarios are just as likely to be beneficial and life saving.

My main argument is, it's gonna fall on deaf ears and only those that care will learn over time as they need to. Many students, especially young men, do not care whatsoever about concepts they haven't even had an opportunity to be engaged with, let alone had a first job at that point.

>What's the logic I can't follow it at all. Since people are going to smoke anyway let's not tell them smoking is bad since they will still smoke? That's outright dangerous thinking.

Well...seeing as economies and people have gotten along just fine without teaching these things for what..4-6 millennia now? I think it hardly bears on the realm of "essential" education.
Just because it isn't your good idea doesn't mean it's a bad idea.
Russia’s New Fighter Jet Design Breaks Cover
I have literally never heard a success story of a company/organization outsourcing their core capabilities to presumably save money.

Never.

I don’t understand why all of management still thinks it’s a great idea? Maybe it’s actually working well for them personally and making them boatloads of money?
Nature does not exist for you to "enjoy" it.

Nature seeks balance by evolving creatures that have a reciprocal relationship with the environment. Every creature has a specific role.

Humans have no predators. We are effectively an invasive species that does not seek balance with the environment and thrive at the expense of the balance that nature has created in an unsustainable manner.
Intel's market share in the foundry business currently rounds to zero. So no, it's not fewer independent companies in the foundry business, it's the same number, and now the underdog will have access to better fabs.

I would submit that any large organization, whether it's public education, health or infrastructure, can be heavily abused for political gain like providing patronage opportunities.

The Japanese infrastructure slush funds are a classic example of that.

And I would also submit that state intervention in healthcare and education has been a dramatic failure, with costs in these two sectors skyrocketing over the period in which the state expanded its role in them.

>>In Spain at least there are lots of instances of courts overturning contracts, the most famous ones maybe related to mortgage conditions. I'm not sure if this is good or not in the long term, but it's the case.

If a court overturns a contract, that is fine. One of the roles of the state, in a free society, is to rule on contracts via its courts, and invalidate those that do not meet the bar for consent.

But legislative bodies do not engage in the same impartial and deliberative process as courts so they are not the proper venue through which to restrict private interactions.
The ones I know of are Facebook, Twitter and Netflix.
That's where the financial goals section comes in. Once you add some goals like retirement account contributions or taxable investments in independent brokerage accounts, the simulation will rebalance/invest according to the order of those priorities you define.
> As a result of their diligence and size Facebook reports a lot ~90+% of all CSAM reports[1]. That fact suggests that Facebook really is better than most when it comes to detecting CSAM because there is nothing inherent to Facebook that would make it a more appealing platform for CSAM than pornography websites (e.g. MindGeek), 4chan, or snapchat.

Let the numbers speak:

4chan: 20 million visits.[1]

Pornhub: 2.8 billion visits.[2]

FB Monthly Traffic: 23 billion visits[2]

Just for fun, Netflix: 2.2 billion.

It's depressing, isn't it?

All the hard, honest work doesn't count. Users are hypnotized by these mega corps and will do as told. They will straight up abuse us developers for not measuring up to the insane hoops they make us jump through. Did you see the comments at the top suggesting I siphon sensitive data without the user's consent? Absolute madness

If this has changed anything in me is that from now on, I will spend 1,000,000% more effort into advocating users to not use Google Play. No legitimate, long-term app can afford to rely on it

As for iOS, we'll have to pray things change because there isn't an an equivalent F-Droid in the Apple world

Anyway, it's nearly 2AM, my app is still removed, and I feel I shouldn't be posting this

Thanks for sharing
Thanks for the link. htmx looks really interesting - and the size is right too (1.3kb minified + gzipped). My biggest question would be how you make an offline capable site with this but I'm guessing service workers could take care of it.

I honestly think we don't do enough work on the backend these days, there's a trend for the client to get sent very raw data and to do a lot of processing on it just to render. If we can move more to the backend while still giving customers those isn't SPA style page transitions, it's a win in my books.
Because your actions will then give mega corps and the governments they control a reason to reduce your freedom even more.

Is Kuiper's spectrum situation any better than Starlink's? From what I've read, Starlink and OneWeb have priority over Kuiper for the same spectrum (since they were approved first).

I feel like we are arguing two different things. I was saying Kuiper can't beat Starlink. You are arguing Starlink is not going to succeed. I'm more optimistic about its prospects than you are, but even if you are right, it wouldn't change my original point – if both fail, then Kuiper still doesn't beat Starlink.

I was vaguely aware of the 'feud', was more curious about your judgment that "Wilson has proved to be correct in every particular" (because I don't think this is true). Is there a reason to believe that the objections by Lewontin and Gould were 'ideological'? Personally I care more about whether the criticisms were valid than what motivated them. Seems to me that Wilson's idea about the genetic origin of social behavior is quite speculative, and naive about the enormous complexity of both genetics and behavior. Wilson also remains a widely celebrated scientist, perhaps more so than Lewontin, so clearly the persecutions didn't amount to much (though I admit that I know little about how L and G treated W in private).
>The goal of education should not be to force people to conform.

By that logic, we should let students study the path they want to devote themselves down in which they think they will be successful. I know many blue collar people in my area that know jack about finance but are rich as hell because they are damn good at their blue collar job. You don't need a high school diploma to know "If I work, I earn money. If I don't spend my money, I have more money for later." Teaching people about stock investments as though it's how things will get better for people is just egregious and only something an affluent WASP would say.

Any state control over private citizens can be rationalized in this way. Private property is a private creation, and the use of public resources by the individuals that create it should not be used as an excuse to deny its creators their rights over it, any more than the use of public resources by individuals should not be used to invalidate their right to free speech.
Perhaps some governmental oversight of how these data flows are harvested, and where they come from would be a good start.
