In 'The Wide Lens' by Ron Adner, he uses Michelin's run-flat tire initiative (PAX) to show how brilliant innovations can fall flat (sorry, couldn't resist) if the entire ecosystem / supply chain is not enabled.

In the case of PAX, the service stations (75% of the market is replacement) were not ready.

Hopefully, Michelin has the full ecosystem enabled in this case, as this seems promising.
Rubber material properties (hardness basically) is a rounding error compared to tread design in terms of road noise and the dominant factor in terms of how long it takes the tire to wear down.
The life raft was also possible, but it has to be a giant one.

This experience sucks because the car sucks, not the phone. I have a $15 Bluetooth to FM transmitter that you just need to select on your phone's Bluetooth page to start playback (assuming you haven't paired before). No passcode or complicated process. Is this worth not having a cable? I'd say so, actually.

Officially no such registry exists. In practice, Apache does have such a registry by default: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk/docs/conf... and other systems do use that mapping or a similar one.
I know. But unfortunately they're not rated for (and don't last long at, tread tends to separate) road speeds.

Various manufacturers have been teasing "airless" prototypes for highway use for a long time. I hope this one actually goes somewhere.
https://github.com/Azure/WALinuxAgent - I think this is the equivalence of GCP guest-agent, serving similar functionalities, and is pre-installed on all official images, otherwise basic things like authentication and image baking will break.

By setting the provisionVMAgent property to false when creating a virtual machine, WALinuxAgent should run with all extensions disabled, and I think that's as minimal as a Linux VM can go on Azure.

This property, however, can't be set via https://github.com/ansible-collections/azure, which is of course another lovely OSS project by Microsoft. I didn't bother to send a PR.

The OMI agent seems to be a different beast that is way more obnoxious. The closest thing on GCP is probably the collectd agent and the fluentd agent installed for Stackdriver Monitoring and Stackdriver Logging? Plus whatever OS config to enable unattended upgrades.

I just learnt from this HN thread about the SSM agent on AWS. That one does seem equally obnoxious as the OMI agent.

EDIT: Looks like collectd and fluentd have been replaced by https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/ops-agent
At this point in time, what could be leaked about nearly anyone that hasn’t already been leaked?
While I generally agree, even in a hardware accelerated world will-change can still be useful. If you're transforming a complex box with lots of typeset international text and stuff in it, it can be necessary to buffer that whole box to a scratch surface first, so will-change is useful to optimize that.
Kevlar-reinforced tyres exist, they’re used on off-road vehicle. I expect they don’t protect much against the sort of very thin puncture you’d find on a standard road because there’s simply too much pressure being applied when driving a car over a nail/screw.

I don’t think carbon fibre would be of any use here, it’s not super strong against high transversal forces AFAIK. It’d mostly be useful for sidewall rigidity (and I’d be surprised if it didn’t already exist).

I did a thing about Kruger for a design project once. I found it recently, and uploaded it to my portfolio[1]. It's in a really weird order that I should fix when I get round to it.

As a designer, Kruger is one of my favourite artists. Her ability to make simple typography mean so much more than just a few words is great and her career is fascinating.

I am with you and quite pissed withthis topic.

But at the root of all of this there is something many do not notice: spending efficiently is done way better by way more pure market dynamics. This means politicians do not have a place there.

Yet they want to control a bigger and bigger piece of the cake to justify their positions. Even a well-intentioned politician would not be able to manage more efficiently than a free market.

But when they know this and still insist is when their masks drop: they are not there to help anyone, just to justify their positions.

They really act increasingly more like a mafia in my opinion. I stay in Spain but I see the same trend in all the westerner world, including USA.

The notion that any working class individual should not care about any other working class individuals who draw a higher salary then themselves is whats keeping the working class from properly organizing and balancing power against actual elites, which is those who own companies like McKinsey, not those who are just salaried employees, let alone the entry level employees.

Its odd that’s people have such an easy time having sympathy towards the mistreated, but immediately lose that sympathy once they realize that the affected make more a month than they do.
It was the presentation of the books mimicking exactly the work of somebody else. Sorry, I should have explained more. Apple contacted (if I can remember) the original author, had friendly discussions about the way he was doing the stuff, and then simply copied everything into the default app.

This is only from memory, but for me, the pattern is the same.

Contact patch and rubber compound being close to constant when compared to a pneumatic tire the mileage impact would primarily depend on weight. I don't think it will be much of an impact since Michilin is unlikely to make a very heavy tire as that would have bad NVH characteristics which don't jive at the high end and reading between the lines of the press release stuff seems to indicate that's where they're targeting.
He's not oversold. His major feat (breaking enigma using a computer) is miscategorized into Computer Science, where it should be classified into Computer Engineering and Software Engineering, alongside other stars like Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace. His second major feat (the Turing Machine model) is one stone among the many foundational stones of Computer Science.
Humans are pretty unique in all aspects of their nutrition.

More obvious than the consumption of milk is the fact that we cook most of our food while no other living being does it. No other animal mixes different food sources into a single dish either. No other animal grinds seeds into flour, etc.

Drinking milk is one of the least weird things we do regarding food.
The comment you’re responding to didn’t mention Facebook’s hiring practices at all.

> The folks are every bit as good as the hiring practices would indicate. These people meet a problem, and in the average case haven’t read the relevant textbook. So they read it, and solve the problem. Sometimes they invent something new.

Give me a break. There are some really bright people, but a lot are mediocre, just like at any other company with tens of thousands of employees.

I’m not sure when you worked there. The only way I can make sense of your post is if it was a very long time ago, or you were in a very unusual team.
So here is how I see it for these big tech companies(I know it’s terrible but I believe that’s just how it is sadly).

Medical professionals have malpractice insurance / budget where if a doctor was to make a mistake and was sued for it then it is used to settle. Similarly companies like Apple seem to feel like they keep doing what is right for their own personal interests and profits while at the same time set aside money to settle such cases and see it as collateral damage. Even if you were to get a tough judge in a case like this you’d still as Apple at best get a slap on the wrist with a few hundred thousand or a million in fines to some individual developer. The only difference between medical professionals and big tech is that once a medical professionals licence is pulled he can’t practice medicine again. I wonder what similar punishment big tech should get for pulling such stunts.

Observation of a Psychokinetic Effect Under Highly Controlled Conditions
True, and the Linux kernel has zero-copy AF_XDP that enable memory to be shared with userspace. However, low-latency networking is a lot more than just simple kernel bypass.

It's things like pinning cpu cores dedicated for networking, disabling C-states, epolling and being able to utilize bespoke firmware interfaces designed for smartnics. Also application protocol, ie using features like TCP checksum offload and TSO.

Heck the application would also need to be adjusted for a low-latency environment via probably a custom JVM and doing things like reading data structures/variables to ensure they are in CPU cache.

Frankly I would recommend trying openonload which at least is compatible with native Linux socket programming unlike DPDK.
Absolutely not. But it’s still kinda weird. Like Facebooks CISO leaving their post to found a company which promotes itself with Facebook CVEs. To quote Matt Levine, “I don’t know”.

How Can I Get Phone Numbers of USA People for Marketing?
A major limitation of seccomp is that you can't turn off inheritance. With pledge inheritance is opt-in.

This has major consequences because it makes it possible for a process to secure itself without affecting its ability to spawn child processes. You could apply seccomp in-process or use a spawn-helper before securing it. But more realistically it means that one applies an external seccomp profile to a group of processes (e.g. a container) that contains the union of all needed syscalls.

So while seccomp is more flexible in some sense (being able to run BPF filters on every syscall) its architecture leads to it being applied in a less flexible way.
SSH hardening guide bonus edition: Disable password login if you can, leave the algorithm settings as they are and use an up to date version of OpenSSH.

OpenSSH already agressively deprecates algorithms that are problematic. None of the algorithms enabled by default has any known security issue. But your manual tweaks from a random document you read on the Internet may enable an algorithm that we may later learn to be problematic.
Per the video, their plan is to 3D print additional sustainable tread on demand and/or switch you over to snow tires if you need them using 3D printing techniques while you have a snack (apparently)
In the concept video it’s shown that a 3D printer can print layers on top of the tyre. I think this is what they meant by rechargeable - the ability to “fix” the tyres.
There’s a spectrum. Some stuff is explicitly intended for outside consumption and a lot of effort goes into documentation, marketing, polish, etc. (e.g. PyTorch). Some other stuff like you said is just thrown over the wall.
This is something I've wondered -- can someone smarter than me explain the benefit of using something like Next.js or Gatsby for a blogsite like this over an SSG like Jekyll or Zola? Doesn't Next & Gatsby deliver a bunch of JS to the client either way?

A lot of the angst around "social construct" is because people think "X is is a social construct" means "X is imaginary" or "X can be whatever you want it to be". Just as an example, legislation and the judicial system is clearly a social construct, but that does not mean it is not real!

> The Turing machine has a tape of unbounded size so can’t be built simpliciter.

On the contrary, I think this is one of the advantages of Turing’s model: I can imagine standing there in my garage looking on as my universal Turing machine is running low on tape on the left side, and then simply attaching a new roll of fresh empty tape at the end, holding it as it is fed into the machine. :)

It’s simply the least leaky abstraction of computation.
> neither EncryptData nor DecryptData have any way of passing a key

There could have been other smells involved, like the key being held in some more global scope instead of being passed in via the call stack.
The problem with this kind of system is that it isn't retroactive; all space junk currently in space will remain in space even if the tether device is mandated. And it's unlikely it gets mandated and approved by all spacefaring governments anytime soon.
This sure sounds like "they were asking for it", which is tasteless regardless of context.
Why do I feel like we're heading to a future where all consumer facing SW, tech, entertainment is just walled gardens controlled by the handful of trillion dollar megacorps and as a developer or content creator on their platform (or gig worker as you call them) you will basically have the choice of putting up with their bullying/abuse with no chance of recourse or go hungry like how many youtubers wake up with their cannels banned or deleted overnight byt a bot without any chance of fighting back?
Perhaps we will never achieve literal post-scarcity. Some people will always want to fly to another galaxy, and there might be not enough fuel to make all of them happy.

But if instead of yes-or-no we take it as a scale, I'd say we moved a lot on this scale during the last hundred years. So, how about reducing the work-week to 30 hours? Or perhaps keep it at 40 hours, but after each two years of work you get one year of vacation?

They're trying to spin it as reducing the environmental impact, but the actual details in the article seem iffy. Glass fibre reinforced plastic is basically non-recyclable and they only have some vague ambition to make them out of something that is at some unspecified point in the future.

Any noise a normal-ish passenger car is of no consequence compared to the noise of heavy trucks and motorcycles. You don't even notice it.

It's only "blighted" because the people who self select to live beside a highway tend not to be the ones who care a ton about making their residence look nice from the street (manicured lawn, nice siding, sealed driveway, etc, etc) so the prices stay cheap, the rents stay low and the cycle continues.

The usability and responsiveness is just much better. You kind of have to just use it yourself for an extended period and experience the difference.

There may be someone in these comments able to breakdown the exact detailed technological "why" of the superior user experience but in general I don't think this is a very "ELI5" type topic; it's more about experience.
If you live next to an empty lot, and the local government allows an apartment complex to be built on it, your house just dropped tremendously in value, both due to loss of privacy and the large boost in supply of housing, which was previously lower and inflating the price of your home.

How does that benefit you?
Didn’t the Nutrition Science Initiative put the carbohydrate-insulin model to the test and effectively disprove it (against their expectations)?

I’m all for eating “real food” and think a lot of processed food is awful, so if the advice is just eat the former and avoid the latter, that’s sensible advice. I just think the “fat is good” contingent of carbohydrate-insulin model proponents are fooling themselves.
> at's not outside of CICO, since BMR is a central element of “calories out”. Of course, it is a reason CICO is not as simple as advocates make it out to be (and there are more problems like that on both the CI and CO sides.)

That was basically my point. BMR can fluctuate making CICO a piss poor oversimplified explanation for weight loss. My example was real, it did happen to me. My calories in was meticulously recorded. Calories out is less accurate, but the calories burned in exercise were not dramatically inaccurate enough to explain the lack of progress. The only other factor outside my conscious control was BMR.
Probably it’s the (JavaScript-native) object model, not the parsing? XHR appeared in IE 5 as a part of MSXML and thus had XML handling built in, and probably every other browser that copied it included that part as well... (not feeling up to browser archaeology at the moment, sorry). But unadorned XML DOM is just unpleasant to deal with.
That's a good point. Could largely be achieved using a combination of design tokens to indicate light source, and an abstraction that allows assigning an elevation value (much like in Material Design) to individual elements.

Arguably what's missing is the ability to use blend modes with shadows, so that you don't need to explicitly know anything about the elements that the shadows are rendered on.

Edit: Found a Stackoverflow answer that shows a way to somewhat emulate this using a pseudo element: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52838406/apply-blend-mod...
>> The people are selfish, more concerned with their property values and if their neighbour mows their bylaw required lawn, than if the next generation will be able to have a similar quality of life. Why wouldn't you be cynical if you were young?

The IPCC reports say that if we do little to ameliorate the effects of global warming, in 2100 future generations will have a GDP per capita several times higher than today's, but lower than it would be if actions are taken. That's not an apocalypse. I would worry about other things if I were you.

You are asking old people now to lower their standard of living so that future generations will have a standard of living that goes from "much higher than yours" to "much higher than yours plus x%", while calling them selfish.
That a completely different and silly argument. Should an employer be allowed to raise an employees wage? Yes, sure.... but no, if hey are allowed to modify the terms of employment hat must mean they’ve also should have he right to steal employees first borne!!?

You trying to argue against fingerprinting, a identification practice so damn common that’s almost everyone currently has a device in their pocket using it, by saying “but what if they then adopt something completely unacceptable!!?”
That’s not an argument against the simple known technology, it’s just an absurd slippery sloop argument where you pretend everything is one giant variation of similar actions an therefore nothing must ever change for fear that this could mean over negative changes could come.
Those free tax services exist because they lobby the government to keep it from offering free filing itself so companies can push paid services to free filers who don't really need those paid services.
The alternative isn't no government, it's getting the same treatment from a different authority with even less recourse. You're just blaming the messenger.

Not really, that is the old Apple before they had to get a Microsoft cash injection to avoid closing doors.
I see it as a mix of hardware and software, but mostly software.

Hardware:
-Large touchpads, enabled by great palm rejection
-Haptic Feedback instead of physical clicks, letting you click anywhere

Software:
-start a gesture and the ui begins responding to it. It feels like you’re directly manipulating what’s on the screen. On other OSs they detect the gesture way too late so the feeling is broken.
-small details like scroll inertia are really smooth and present all over the OS, refining the overall experience
The threat is not the cloud provider and this has nothing to do with physical access.

The software vulnerability can be exploited by anyone with network access to the machine.

Does the author stand a chance against the army of ivy league lawyers of a trillion dollar megacorp?

I guess it would help if he's also American (don't know where he's from) so he could fight Apple on home turf and use the jury system on his side like "Evil megacorp steals from the little guy" (does it even work like this in the US or did I watch too many movies?), but I'm more curious how a lawsuit would go if he'd be in a jurisdiction different than the US.

Like, if for example, the author would be Russian, could he sue Apple's Russian legal entity and they would just shrug it off as "Yeah, that's not us who screwed you, go to the US and sue the Apple US HQ."?

As a non-lawyer I'm really curious how the legal system works for such disputes.
