> I didn't see how all the different CAD, EDA, etc. packages worked, but sometimes the workstation was pretty much an appliance for running a single program, and on occasion would even be branded with a physical badge for the application software on it.

So true.

One of my first jobs was installing/supporting some big CAD/CAM/CAE software package; mainly for the automotive industry but also a lot for toy factories and some others. The thing is not only was the workstation an appliance for our software, but many times Sun, SGI, HP, IBM, they actually sold their workstations through us. We'd sell the software and offer the client, if they didn't have the appropriate stations, to get them a nice deal. We'd be the ones doing the hardware delivery and set-up, in exchange for the deal, I guess.

I particularly remember one such delivery. It was a fancy design studio where they did like perfume bottles, luxury products' packaging, etc. They were running everything on Macintosh boxes. Around that time, Apple design was all curves and cool colours and all that. The office itself was quite well decorated and also focused on curves and nice colours. Anyway, I got there with a very rectangular, very grey-and-ugly-purple, very heavy HP box. All the designers were pretty appalled that I would set that thing right there in their office just because some "stupid software" needed to run on it.

It was even worse when they finally saw the actual, rather industrial, software running xD
I thought we collectively agreed that since Facebook is a private entity they can do whatever they want on their platform, and they have no obligation to support these researchers. Why the sudden change of heart?
There will certainly be less developers in the Haskell vs Go vs Javascript communities. However, you probably only need to find a few developers regardless of the language you are using. :)

That said, hiring Haskell engineers has its pros and cons. Its true there is a smaller pool of developers then other languages, but you end up with a smaller pool of very excited and committed developers eager to use Haskell in production.
I would settle for a Raspberry Pi board that combines sensors for temperature, CO2, VOCs, and particulate load. Maybe combined with fans that can easily be put into cracked-open windows to force air flow.
Yeah it would, but aside from the cost there are other benefits to cloud computation. It can be done in the background (i.e. it's ok to close your tab) and you can run multiple at once.

Style transfer on NightCafe has a bulk-create mode that has been used in the past to create 500+ creations at once and they all finished in 10 mins.

Achieving RPO/RTO Objectives with ZFS
Here in Australia they put the price per unit on the shelf sticker!

Like for Pepsi it will show $1.67/per litre, for instance.

Then you can easily shop all the 24 or 30 multipacks.

Also, like other countries the actual weight inside the same packaging are shrinking. Chocolate Bars are a good example.

They've tried pushing the smaller than 350ml can size, but it hasnt stuck. In the UK they have a 330ml can size.

You’re getting downvoted but honestly I can’t understand why anyone would defend Finder. It’s appalling. Half of the power user functions one expects from a modern file browser are hidden behind non-discoverable hot keys and the other half just don’t exist at all.

It’s honestly the worst file manager of all the major desktop environments. And I’m including the GNOME here too.
Home hosting is great for testing. I have been doing this for years.

It's not a serious option for live sites. Dyn IP, slow upload speeds and physical security are all an issue.

I would recommend duckdns as a solution for dyn ips.

I measured the cost of running a box 24/7 with ssds and an i5 6th gen cpu. Around £3 per month.
It's a shame this doesn't happen with cars.
They didn't clean the air. Their methods were to inject air of different concentrations.

As stated in the article, the best approach to cleaning CO2 and VOCs is increasing the flow of outside air into closed spaces. The headline involving the word "cleaning" is misleading since it should not be your first choice unless outside air quality is poor.

I noticed the warning sign for such accumulated crust and culture, is usually a exponential dev team growth curve.
We just need 4 new devs this year and 8 new devs next year.
All that while the actual product is at linear growth.
Yes, it works, but its foreseeable that it will end working in n-years were dev-team size and cost is bigger then the whole money the product earned.

You are trying to assert the studios were good studios. Yet, you provide no proof that the board, and CxO ezecs were completely unaware of (as you claim) parent corps making back room deals.

Look, many people in this thread have expressed that you seem to be over protective of these studios you worked for. I get that you did not feel ill treated when there, but you were ... clearly your salary was artificially, and illegally depressed.

You just don't have a leg to stand on here, IMO.

I'm not sure why you seem so put out by this. You aren't your employer, and being a victim doesn't paint you in a bad light.

edit: If I am missing something here, please lay out what it is.

But do note that by the mere fact your salary was repressed, you worked for a bad corp. I will find it very, very difficult to get past this point, and all the hand waving in the world will likely not help here.

It may be that there is no value in us discussing, our positions may be too entrenched.

Ways I can install software in Ubuntu:

And there's pacman, nix, rpm, and a bunch of other package managers for other distros.

It's actual worse now than it's ever been. Every program seems to have a different way to install it, or multiple ways and the versions in each package manager are different.
Great read.

> embedded DB

Sounds like it's not quite as embedded as SQLite? Seems like it just smushes the server into your app and spins that up from within. Also it only seems to be properly "embedded" on Windows (no macOS support and Linux is a bit weird?)

The article clearly states that the best way to "clean" the air is just to bring in more fresh air from outside. The article doesn't strongly support filtration unless your outside air quality is poor.
in the UK there are many areas that Radon can be an issue

from: https://www.ukradon.org/information/ukmaps

"Every building contains radon but the levels are usually low. The chances of a higher level depend on the type of ground. Public Health England has published a map showing where high levels are more likely."

getting a sensor at a reasonable price is tricky since Radon emits Alpha radiation - I managed to get one at around £300
See https://languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu/nll/?p=2290 for some details. I would summarize by saying, there were words involved (i.e. the Latin "petitio" and Greek "αἰτεῖσθαι") that have multiple meanings (a modern analogue being "plead", which can mean "ask"/"beg", but can also mean "plead to the court [some statement of fact]"—i.e. to make a claim), and the word "beg" comes from a translator selecting one of the wrong meanings. Also, "the question" is really a poor choice to mean "the original point to be proven"/"the conclusion"/"the point in question".

I am strongly against prescriptivism telling people that a bad translation that makes no sense is correct. I recommend "assuming the conclusion" as a correct name.
For applications there is no Windows style install process where things like the registry have to be updated, the os manages these associations itself.

For things like kernel extensions yes there’s an installer, and some more invasive apps do that as well. But for a plain app there’s no _need_ for an installer. That doesn’t prohibit them of course.
Hi, I'm the author. This paper is building on techniques explained here: https://portswigger.net/research/http-desync-attacks-request...

This attack does not require a MITM - the attacker would use a tool like Burp Suite to issue the (technically RFC-violating) HTTP request. The prefix injection happens because front-end places the attacker's request and the victim's request on the same HTTP/1.1 connection to the back-end, as shown in this diagram: https://portswigger.net/cms/images/9c/c1/4c32-article-http2-...

> isn't the suffix just ignored by the final remote
The back-end treats the suffix as the start of the next request, due to TCP buffering. The vast majority of servers have this kind of accidental pipelining support thanks to TCP.
It seems like it's basically a commercial GPS SoC where people have figured out how to run their own code on the CPU that is part of the GPS SoC.

The IC in question here is a Venus828F. It seems like navspark is either a project of SkyTraq (the company that makes the Venus IC), or SkyTraq have a SDK which this packages in a blob format.
People can be the biggest challenge. You’ll discover that the further you get from the immigrant friendly areas of the east and west coasts. My advice to newcomers has always been to stick to the interstates while traveling within the US, and general feedback has been they thought I was a loon until they drove down a state highway and got pulled over by the cops six times wanting to know if they were lost, or got stared at constantly by all the rural people who had never seen a non-caucasian in person. The biggest issue is that most Americans can’t distinguish between the different varieties of non-caucasians so regardless of where you are from you’ll get a lot of random flack for stealing people’s jobs or blowing up the World Trade Center. Once while traveling I had a one year old girl refer to my wife as the N word - the parents didn’t cause any problems and they noticeably stuck a bottle in her mouth really quick after she said it, but obviously the girl had been present at enough discussions that she thought that is what non-caucasians were called. I imagine that when not patronizing Arby’s the family must just sit around the TV every night and holler out slurs every time they see a dark skinned person - not sure how else a one year old would pick that up.

I guess the difference is that the server is still free to return the "Connection: close" header on the first response and simply not read and/or process the other requests?

The client would then be expected to close the socket, possibly causing a TCP reset (if the server hadn't read all the data off the socket)

I think Gebru is serving two masters. She wants societal change based on critical social justice and at the same time she publishes papers on AI ethics. A conflict of interests, you can't be an unbiased scientist while being a die hard activist at the same time.

CJ ideology says to avoid debating with people of the "oppressing class" in order to not give them a platform, or because language itself is biased, or because the opponents are believed to act in bad faith, while the scientific method requires unbiased, impersonal, open debate. See the quote about "master's tools will never dismantle the master's house" for reference. They also practice cancelling their opponents instead of debating, which Gebru and her cohort tried to do on Twitter.
Or to city that is not car dependent.

Moving to the countryside will just worsen the problem for other people while a city that is not car dependent has other advantages:

* Less air pollution

* Less travel time for groceries/errands

* Less noise pollution

* More activity

* Kids can play on most streets

* 5-20k more disposable income per year because you don't need a car
Not sure which earlier position you mean. I never suggested that everyone must do/understand everything.
"And I actually guess..."

Your guess is incorrect. I mean sending multiple requests over a single TCP connection. Usually 100 or more.

When performing information retrieval, e.g., fetching a series of pages from the same host, I do not want out of order responses. I want the responses returned in order. I want the HTTP headers, too, as record separators and so I can be sure all requests were filled.

This sort of pipelining is not useful for websites that want to source myriad resources into their pages from external sources to serve ads, perform tracking and all that commercially-oriented stuff that is necessary for companies like Google to survive. HTTP/2 is useful for commercially-oriented use of the web. Surveillance and ads.
I'm not interested in using the web that way.

HTTP/1.1 pipelining is useful for informational retrieval, i.e., retrieving hundreds of resources from the same host without opening up hundreds of connections. That sort of bulk information retrieval is not compatible with online advertising and tracking. Thus, Google and other companies supporting HTTP/2 have no interest in it. It benefits users, not advertisers.

I fully expect some nasty comments from "tech" workers whenever I bring up this topic. I am speaking from a user persepctive, not a "developer" perspective.

In the early days of the web, opening up hundreds of connections at once would be poor etiquette (toward the server operator). Today, many so-called "engineers" do not know any other way. Not only do they do it to servers (e.g, asynchronous requests), they do it to clients, causing a user's browser to make hundreds of requests to different servers for a single web page. Looking at a Network panel in Developer Tools in a popular browser when accessing an "average" web page reveals the sheer insanity of so-called today's "web development". The other commenter clearly has never even used HTTP/1.1 pipelining, at least not consciously, and yet he wants to offer his opinion on it. Nice.

I use HTTP/1.1 pipelining every day. For example, I use it to retrieve bulk DNS data from DoH servers. The future of HTTP/2 is uncertain. HTTP/1.1 is not going away anytime soon.

I can test every website that is currently submitted to HN for pipelining support. I would bet the majority allow pipelining. If I wanted to retrieve a large number of pages from any of them, I could use pipelining to do it.

I get no benefits from HTTP/2 because I mainly use the web for non-commercial purposes. For that use, I do not use a popular browser. I do not wait for websites to "load" whilst they open dozens or even hundreds of connections to other servers. I retrieve HTML from the command line using netcat and haproxy. It's fast. I use a text-only browser to read HTML.

When using the web in the way I do, without seeing any ads, without all the automatically triggered requests to external servers, performance is not an issue. When using the web the way Google wants people to use it, chock full of ads, then performance is an issue and something like HTTP/2 makes sense. Thus, how one uses the web matters. One size does not fit all.
It isn't quite that easy. Even if there aren't impediments to opening a window a crack, it is not guaranteed that passive measures will reduce CO2 levels.

I've been tracking my home office's CO2 level for about a year and a half and obviously opening a window helps, but there are certain conditions (pressure, temperature, wind?) that require fans to normalize the levels.
COBOL is an extremely easy language to learn.

Companies needing COBOL programmers find it easier to train up someone in COBOL, rather than finding a pre-existing COBOL programmer.

I learned COBOL in a month.

The only reason a company can't get COBOL programmers is because programmers want to work in Python or Java or anything that looks good on a resume for the next job. COBOL is pretty much a dead end, a hiring person is going to look at your last job and see COBOL and say no thanks. Not all companies, but why take the risk?
Well I went to college there in 2011-2014 and never, ever provided those docs. I don't have them now and never have had them. Honestly don't even know if I've had the Meningitis shot.

EDIT: Yes, you should read the text more carefully: "An individual enrolled in a postsecondary educational institution who will be residing in on-campus housing shall provide documentation of vaccinations against meningococcal meningitis and hepatitis B unless the individual, if the individual is 18 years of age or older, or the individual’s parent, if the individual is a minor, declines the vaccinations by signing a separate waiver for each of these vaccines, provided by the institution, acknowledging receipt and review of the information provided."

Declinable by waiver.

I am still surprised that no large company exists around PostgreSQL, similarly to Oracle, the (defunct/acquired) MySQL AB, or Redis Labs.

Wondering whether this is a missed opportunity. This is not to bash the free software part of PostgreSQL, but rather to focus on something that could drive more enterprise adoption, I guess to the detriment of primarily Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server.
Sorry.

> Then there is the per kilo-watt hour cost of nuclear energy which is way higher than solar or wind when taken over the full lifetime of the installation including the eventual cleanup / disposal.

If we went full nuclear the cost per kWh would go down a lot. Costs are high because of minimal investment in the last several decades, western countries have not been building NPP and therefore aren't good (i.e. efficient) at it.

> The best thing we can do is to limit our consumption. But that's easy to say from the point of view of the developed world, where consumption is excessive. It will be more than offset by the developing countries gains leaving us with a situation that is net worse than things are today even if we do our best.

The cognitive dissonance is jarring. For the reasons you yourself state, clearly limiting consumption is NOT the solution.
Pretty close - surprising a regulator like this and especially making misleading statements about their supervision is exceptionally bad form and suggests Facebook doesn’t have have the right processes in place to implement their consent decree.
To see such a swift and public censure is a very strong warning to pull up their stocks and expect much more scrutiny on this topic.
If someone at a bank had done something to prompt a response like this it would be a career limiting move - I can’t think of a similar case offhand but avoiding this kind of fallout would be very high on any sensible CEO’s todo list.
