According to the paper, the leak occurs when the battery is close to full (>95%). In that case, since the battery is almost full, the power drained from the charger reflects the concurrent power being consumed by the device.

I initially thought this is easily fixable (for example, by always request full power), but then I realized it isn't, since the extra power would then have to be dissipated as heat, which is a bad cellphone UX as well.
> I can't understand who would want to drive in Manhattan.

I think the idea is that people will drive if their tolerance level for slowness is satisfied. So the amount of traffic will always be high enough to look acceptable for some people, unacceptable for others.

As for parking, in London there are definitely parking lots scattered around the city - can't speak for New York though.

> But those robots won't pay taxes to support the elderly :)

That's a problem which could be resolved: companies do replace people by robots to reduce labor costs. But companies (owners, shareholders, etc) still want to profit from all kinds of common infrastructure. So force them (with law and regulations) to continue to share a part of the saved expenses, e.g. by continuing to pay social expenses for their robots. That way they'd still save money by automation, but would do this in some socially responsible ways.

Then Uber would have to decide who works when and for how long. Right now it’s controlled by supply and demand through pricing algorithms.
I mean that the article on technology.org doesn't state the sample size, but still claims this has proven the effectiveness of the treatment. You would have a hard time getting a treatment cleared for public use with those numbers. If you treat 6 people and they seem to go in some direction, then you have to put that into context by having some sort of control or else it is not possible to evaluate the degree to which the improvement was in patient selection or pure chance. I think that OPs article overstates the significance at this point and should have highlighted that further studies are necessary.

The thing that interests me here is company valuation. The base idea is that you predict the future profits of a company and NPV that down to today, and that's how much the total share price should be.

This of course is tricky, but at some point all the big regulatory arbitrage plays (uber, airbnb) etc were obvious for what they were - and I am not sure they got adjusted. In other words short term competition and PR played as big a role it seems in valuation models as did "can airbnb keep renting out against local laws"

I've done this (in the summer). The ruling I received was to treat the time when the sun is at its lowest point as basically the entire night in a single instant.

Since the evening prayer is always allowed to be done shortly before night, I'm not sure why they say "It is possible that during very long days of the polar summer, evening prayers are not recited." I'm not aware of any rabbinical authority who would rule that way.

Doing the afternoon, evening, and morning prayers one after the other was definitely an experience.

“Don Quixote” as a manual for living
The german federal police publishes a report every year about suspects of crime. "non-germans" meaning people without a german passport. "refugees" are included in non-germans and mean people who got asylum status or stay illegally in Germany. From 2020:

> Murder/Manslaughter
Germans: 1,587
Non-Germans: 1,085 (420 refugees)

> Assault
Germans: 84,776
Non-Germans: 52,412 (18,094 refugees)

> Robbery
Germans: 15,435
Non-Germans: 10,378 (3,739 refugees)

> Rape
Germans: 5,370
Non-Germans: 3,110 (1,155 refugees)

Source: https://www.bka.de/SharedDocs/Downloads/DE/Publikationen/Pol...

Now go ahead and put these numbers into context regarding each group's percentage in the population. And be sure to remember, that there are millions of people with migration background who count as germans because they have a german passport.

Personally I have no problem with migration of skilled people or temporary asylum for war refugees: black, brown, white, muslim, hindu, christian, whatever, I don't care. But one has to keep the bad ones out in the long term. Germany and many other western european countries failed to do that for whatever reason. And now their prisons are full of people with migration background.
If you happen to live in London or ever go there, you can see one of the oldest surviving New Testament Greek manuscripts. It's called Codex Sinaiticus (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codex_Sinaiticus), dates from the 4th century AD, and is always on free public display at the British Library in London.
You can’t. The headline is missing a piece of context in that the proved it was free of runtime errors… according to a specification they chose to evaluate it against. What if their specification contained an error? You could verify that specification against another specification, you could even do that formally if you want to. Eventually you have to confront Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, and accept that such a level of proof is not possible.

Formal verification btw is just a formalised methodology for evaluating something against a specification. It doesn’t prove that errors don’t exist, or that the verifier hasn’t managed to independently make their own error. It’s just a rigorous PR.
Must is just as wrong as won't. The ideal solution is, drivers being given the choice. Wanna earn more (but less predictable), pay less tax, have less social security, work whenever you want to? Or do you want to earn less (but completely predictable), pay more tax, have unemployment security, work fixed hours.
I'm aware that it's technically considered blocking due to a producer being preempted between swap and store causing the consumer to see an invalid link and report empty. I address this in the run queue section by noting that it's OK if empty is spuriously reported since the thread waking/waiting mechanism takes care of rescheduling such a case.
Software projects need heroes? lessons learned from 1100 projects
I think a general purpose threadpool should work well on general purpose hardware, and it seems like the most popular SoCs on consumer devices will have heterogeneous cores et al, so a good implementation would schedule the threadpool appropriately. I agree that there is no POSIX way to distinguish between hyper threads and regular threads, and this is something that should be improved. I'm not saying that the achievements made by the threadpool implementation are lackluster or that any of the other solutions solve the issues I outline any better. What I am saying that the comment I was originally referring was somewhat mistaken about the benefits of a more optimal, yet naive threadpool library.

This isn't just about hyperthreads, by the way. As long as the workload isn't compute heavy and often stalls on memory, hyperthreads are just as good as regular threads. On a hardware level, there is no distinction between a regular and a hyperthread core. Either you multiplex a single physical core or you don't. Anyway, there is more to it than slower threads and faster threads - accessing memory between threads will be slower depending on which core is trying to access which bits of memory - a core stealing work from a sibling core on the same chiplet will probably be able to do that quicker than stealing work from a core across the cluster if the data prefetcher has been doing it's job correctly. Spawning more threads than necessary might force a CPU to power up more cores than necessary, resulting in slower performance per core performance and worse power efficiency, especially if a fast or slow cluster needs to be turned on, where a more optimal scheduling of threads might not force that to happen.
I think a general purpose thread pool by default should no longer spawn as many threads as there are _cores_, whatever that term even means, with optional toggles to inform whether the work that'll be scheduled will be compute heavy or not.
Ideally for who?

According to this article drivers weren't given information on fare or destination when they were offered fares, until legally required in California. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.wired.com/story/uber-change...

They won't be letting drivers set fares until legally obligated. They are a taxi service that cosplays as a "ride sharing" "marketplace" in the legal system.

Uber is all about keeping maximum control of the driver while denying them the rights of employees (or in the UK, "worker" status, which is a halfway house between employee and self employed)
1. The same way you deploy Ruby/python to your system? They are written in C and most teams have no issue getting those deployed. If your answer is that you are deploying Ruby and python using the system package manager; then the answer here is that you deploy your dependencies for your C code using your package manager.

2. cmake and autoconf will both let you list dependencies and provide error messages to tell users to install them. It won't auto-install dependencies like a package.json or tell a user where to get the dependencies, but the message that something needs to be installed can be passed to the user.
I remember seeing this in practice at a meetup - I believe it was at the Boston AWS meetup at Vistaprint several years ago.

Pol Pot's Secret Bunker
Cheney and the well-aligned group he was part of clearly had extensive control, clearly demonstrated by how well he executed the policy in 2001-2005. It is helpful not to think of the current VP (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamala_Harris) as a comparison as her background [while worthy] was mostly local (SF) and state (CA) -- Cheney on the other hand decades of DC+White House experience (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dick_Cheney) with a strong and almost singular view on Foreign Policy.

W/r/t control beyond the whitehouse, he was publicly part of multiple groups with other key players (e.g., PNAC https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_for_the_New_American_C...) as well as part of non-public "groups" -- Neoconservative. He was clearly effective because his cohorts (Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, Elliott Abrams, Richard Perle and Paul Bremer) were also part of the same circles, well placed in the DC foreign policy / defense apparatus, also shared the same singular focus of hawkish Foreign Policy.

It also helped that half the media landscape unashamedly supported the Cheney stance. Parts of other media (NY Times) reduced their critical thinking for several years until the disaster of the Bush administration became clear.

This is also why Comedy Central and the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Daily_Show took off during that time -- because they (along with PBS News Hour and NPR) were one of the few consistently thoughtful sources of news during that time. Consider how much easier it is for Cheney to execute policy when the media check-and-balance has disappeared.

It's called 'regulate.'
Even if energy prices go down 1000x it still won't be too cheap to meter. Ever since the computer age metering has become incredibly cheap and there are way too many things that can be done with cheap energy for energy to stop responding to the cost/demand curve.

An extreme example is inter stellar travel.
Imagine you're a streamer with OBS and you need to patch your mic, game sound, music stream, etc. and adjust all the levels. It's a PITA to do this kind of thing with pulseaudio - which seems to have been designed with the model of "one user, one sound device" in mind. So people use JACK for this kind of thing, which is similar to what you can get in Windows (with virtual audio cables, virtual patch bays, etc.) that let you route your sound however you need to. But it is also fiddly and painful to use, especially trying to get it to interoperate with w/ pulse. So Pipewire is meant to replace all this with a single solution that is easy to use and "just works".
The problem is with how you define and describe "correctness" - a machine can check that code X matches definition Y, but there can be bugs in the nuances of that formal definition Y, so you effectively just have a different set of code in a different language (that formal definition) that you need to audit.
Speaking Latin
The C programming language predates the time when using third party libraries was common.

When it became commonplace to depend on third party or system libraries, because of the special status C enjoys in the software infrastructure, OS and distro developers bend over backwards to accomodate C linkage, providing pre-packaged dynamic linking objects.

The status quo is actually rather unfortunate. Several package management tools exist to attempt to address the issue, but there is no de-facto standard and every project makes its own choice.

I sort of agree, but then the data structures get basically fixed forever, as lots of UI code is written directly against them. It's not the end of the world, but it does require data model maturity.
"disruption" is basically newspeak for startups when they are weighting the ability and capacity of an administration or government to sue that startup for violating laws. It's legal arbitrage.

> How do you dependencies? Let's say I am building a new C library that depends on 5 other dependencies, how do I let users know?

Via a Dockerfile? ;)

But seriously, this is typically done in the INSTALL.txt installation instruction file for your library, and it’s up to the user to make sure any dependencies are properly installed and configured.

For dependencies that aren’t commonly installed, tools will often include their source and build them from scratch.

It’s a misnomer to say C package management is broken, because it doesn’t have any.
No, it is that most 3rd party libraries a C programmer needs are already offered as part of the OS distribution.

I mean all the groups I presented have some sort of merit to them based off research (delayed 2nd shot), at least observational studies (previous infection then vaccine) or guidelines from CDC on other viruses (previous infection). Doesn't seem emotional.
We really need to review "employment" as a legal concept. Most of these systems were set up post ww2. They worked ok when everyone was working full time as employees of single large companies, in factories where their time was directed.

It no longer works in on demand economies, with variable hours and self employment and people working multiple jobs.
