They're different versions of the same quote. One was the original version in the script and the other was what Rutger Hauer actually said in the movie.

The memories are about war because the android speaking them was a combat model, so his entire life had been spent fighting in wars.
> it's an intrinsic Law Of The Universe that if data comes in a X bytes per second, and leaves at X-k bytes per second, then eventually you will use all storage space in the Universe for your buffer,

This is known as Little's Law. Using Little's Law, you know that if the average time spent in queue is more than the average time it takes for a new entry to be added to the queue, then your queue fills up.

The public key is bound to the address. The problem is that this binding was not as strong as we thought it was in one edge case. Exploitability relied on another problem in the roots, which is now fixed, so the issue is no longer exploitable.

We are also going to do a release though because we thought of a way to ensure that a complete hash of the address and public key (rather than just the 40 bit address) is always checked in certificates of membership. In retrospect it always should have been this way, but then again all security issues always seem silly and obvious in hindsight.

This will make an exploit of this nature impossible even if the roots are misbehaving, since the certificate of membership won't validate against a colliding identity at all.

It would be nice if the address could be at least 256 bits long, but there's a major ergonomic problem with that. Would you rather join network abcd0123ab12345 or network 8c6e2a2647ee854f469a3bb798e02ba5a8b1812cab229ff129f073e7a80c1202?

If humans could remember and easily type very long strings a lot of information security would be way, way easier. :)

Tech executives and employees do lean left, but companies will primarily lobby the party in power, currently the Democrats. I don't know if Palantir is a "conservative tech company", but its co-founder Peter Thiel is more popular with the right than the left.
That's like saying if the eventual goal is realistic telepresence through BCI, we should just go ahead and remove the seatbelts to quit wasting effort on things that won't be in the final vision.

You need to find your fan rpm/noise threshold. On my laptop the fan becomes noticeable above 2500rpm. Someone commented about adjusting the fan curve (I have no idea how), I just manually capped the CPU performance with a powersave profile instead.
I smoked for 15 years, and it's been 10 since I quit. I'm glad I did. That said, I hate it when I hear the "don't make the same mistake I did" stuff from ex smokers, especially ones who obviously enjoyed smoking and for whom it was a big part or their identity - certainly this was true for me, and it appears that way for CD.

Keeping on the theme of "science denial" - it reminds me a lot of the developed world lecturing developing countries about pollution. Yes, from the hindsight of maturity and comfort it's a bad idea, but when you have other immediate concerns, the calculus is very different.

Smoking is unhealthy, but people have to make their own mistakes.
I had to dash off to play D&D, so I stopped once I had written a bare explanation, but let's take an extra moment for why exactly this is going to blow up for some people.

> Walk that chain and verify that all of the certs in it are valid and eventually end in a valid cert that you trust a priori (and in many stacks, this MUST be a self-signed cert).

Imagine we're following this naive algorithm, we trust both ISRG Root X1 (which is many years from expiring) and DST Root CA X3 (which expires next week), and imagine that it's October 1st 2021 and we are seeing a pretty typical HTTPS server with a Let's Encrypt certificate.

Walking the chain we see several certificates, our algorithm tells us to check all of them:

1. An end entity certificate, for example.com signed by R3, this certificate seems fine, hasn't expired, valid, tick, moving on

2. An intermediate certificate, for R3 signed by ISRG Root X1, this certificate seems fine, it has CA:TRUE as necessary, hasn't expired, valid, tick, moving on

3. Another intermediate certificate, for ISRG Root X1, signed by DST Root CA X3, this certificate seems fine, it has CA:TRUE as necessary, hasn't expired, valid, tick, moving on

4. DST Root CA X3 self-signed certificate, which has expired. Invalid, fail, this chain is untrustworthy.

But wait, after step 2 we reached ISRG Root X1, which we know is trustworthy. We were actually done! Why are we looking at these other certificates at all, much less failing the whole chain?

And this is the bug in older OpenSSL versions (and older Libressl, and older GnuTLS) which is why if your clients can upgrade to OpenSSL 1.1.0 or newer that's key.
Lots of legacy apps use bit-mapped graphics instead of vectors. Xaw and Motif are both not resolution-independent toolkits but getting them to support integer scaling (with line-doubling) would be far easier than trying to implement fractional scaling plus anti-aliasing.

Apple literally doubled the resolutions of their pre-HiDPI screens for their current screens and then scaled their interface by 2x for the default OS builds, so if their interface is too big for you then it probably has been since Mac OS X came out.
I didn't say smokers "beat the 'rona" and I'm not arguing for the virtue of smoking. I also do think the moral tone in "what is this?" is childish and inappropriately peckish.
Everything You’ve Learned from Movies About Fire Sprinklers Is Wrong
Another thing to keep in mind is that europe in general and the netherlands in particular has a far more mild climate than the east coast of the united states.

As Douglas Adams said about NYC.

"In the summer it's too darn hot. It's one thing to be the sort of life form that thrives on heat and finds, as the Frastrans do, that the temperature range between 40,000 and 40,004 is very equable, but it's quite another to be the sort of animal that has to wrap itself up in lots of other animals at one point in your planet's orbit, and then find, half an orbit later, that your skin's bubbling."
Talk is cheap, sure.

But you're demanding an enormous act with a tiny benefit. It is completely unreasonable for you to complain that someone doesn't meet this standard you made up.
A bit yea, but it is somewhat telling that their first instinct was to find a GC "knob" and twist it around until they could go back to ignoring their basic architecture.

Go and Rust are great in that they let you write code at good speed, although, I think this just highlights the well known problems of over optimizing a single metric.

Yeah, this is a weird comment from the OP. I use the right shift for 99% of my shift typing. This is probably because my version of "homerow" for keyboards is left shift, a, w, f, spacebar and spacebar, ., p, [, right shift. Which likely stems from years of gaming.

Ah I think I know where we are crossing wires.

I'm wondering if they have hidden the hours worked offshore. So it it looks like productivity per hour is up but actually it's happening off the books of US companies.

So in the example. The US plant has US workers that input say 20 hours to make 1000 parts. But buys in a component made in China and that component has 1000 hours per 1000 output parts. The US company sees that component as a material cost not a labor cost so doesn't count that as labor going into the end product.

I hope I'm making sense?
i went through the article .. read the paper it was based on ... saw the data they sited .... saw the conclusion they reached ... was severely worried of the state of academia and what qualifies as "research"

>> the only significant conclusion this paper had was a driver was more than 22% likely to look at the "down and center stack" when on AP

>> the paper was based on data found on this https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/8751968 paper author by none other than my favourite podcaster D Lex Friedman . the study is conducted on 25 cars all either model S/X from 2016-2019 AKA pre fsd hardware and driver monitoring.

>> now tesla has a big screen on the center console and i would find it natural to see the navigation when im not driving. BUT all other aspects of driving were not that far from normal ... turns out people do all sorts of dumb stuff with or without AP

>> this took me less than 15 mins of googling and i was baffled by how something so stupid could go past even the most bare bone peer review . and then i found about "The Advanced Vehicle Technology Consortium (AVT)"https://agelab.mit.edu/avt the sponsor of some of the co-authors . Which curiously has major car companies and suppliers listed as partners except for tesla . i dont have the inside info on how money changes hands in academia ... but the whole thing looks pretty bad

personally i am biased towards Tesla (aka tesla fanboy) . But i feel there is enough wrong here to justify my case that this was a academia sponsored hit piece not to different from climate change deniers or tobacco companies.
Conservatism is about preserving existing structures and hierarchies, or even returning to the past.

Progressivism is about changing things in the face of new evidence. So is libertarianism, in some flavors.

Why is it surprising that technologists, who constantly think about the future, would be progressive?

We also know that one of the best predictors of whether someone is progressive is how much education they've had. Another is youth. Tech founders skew younger and more educated.
It seems like there's so much potential here for a third-party module market. I wonder how much flexibility these modules provide. Like, could I create a hifi sound card/DAC?

I wanted to disagree, that if we all do our part then it could accelerate and provide the change we need. Then I did a reality check.

If you look at the raw numbers here: https://www.worldometers.info/co2-emissions/co2-emissions-pe...

Even if we get the whole world down to India per capita averages, at 2 tons per capita, that's a global reduction of 60%. And it's maybe just barely enough? But I don't see a future where the world volunteers to go down to India living standards. And it's definitely not going to happen by a few people going vegetarian.

I think you're right. Fixing it in a way that doesn't require much lifestyle change is the only way out. Though finding anyone willing to pay for the fix is still a problem.

(That said, I'd happily encourage lifestyle changes too).
This argument is getting a little tiresome though, isn't it? It isn't simply enough to call something "non-idiomatic" to gloss over a deficiency. There's a cognitive cost to all language features, but most other general purpose statically typed programming languages seem to have come to the conclusion that the benefit outweighs the cost for some form of generics.

I am by no means a Go basher, it is one of my favorite languages. But I eagerly await generics.
If we can be at a place where reasonable people can disagree about generics, I'm super happy, and think we've moved the discourse forward. There are things I like about generics, particularly in Rust (I've had the displeasure of dealing with them in C++, too). They're just not an unalloyed good thing.

What I think is that a "insecure-gemini:" scheme should be added, which is the same except without TLS and 6x response is not allowed (if a client certificate is required, it must redirect to the protocol with TLS).
Why the myth of a perfect meritocracy is so pernicious
I could have written this more clearly. The fact that things that are generic over types are non-idiomatic today in Go has nothing to do with whether the upcoming generics feature is good or bad. They're unrelated arguments.

The latter argument is subjective and you might easily disagree. The former argument, about experienced Go programmers being wary when an API is generic over types, is pretty close to an objective fact; it is a true statement about conventional Go code.
Hist 2.5 and boost-histogram 1.2 released
I'd like to announce the release of Hist 2.5 & boost-histogram 1.2, the powerful histogramming libraries for Python. I don't think I've posted about them here before, so quickly, boost-histogram is a pybind11 wrapper for the Boost.Histogram C++ library, written in close collaboration with the Boost library author, which gives Python users object-oriented histograms with incredible flexibility and speed, multithreaded fills, weighed and mean storages, atomics, manipulations, transforms, drop-in NumPy histogram replacement, and more. It is fully statically typed (newly updated to NumPy 1.21 types). It has been instrumental in pushing forward the tools for binding and building C++14 packages, like pybind11 and cibuildwheel, as well. It was featured at SciPy 2020. Hist is a set of Pythonizations and features on top of boost-histogram to add easier REPL / notebook usage, plotting, and extra functionality. You can use axes names everywhere, make stacks of histograms, pie plots, pull plots, convert from pandas, compute profiles from existing histograms, and much more! Both libraries support UHI, a Python Protocol for PlottableHistograms, allowing libraries to support plotting without depending on boost-histogram or hist.
New in these versions is Python 3.10 support and wheels (joining the new Universal2 wheels), expanded stack support, extra static typing polish, strict zipping (using Python 3.10 if available), better name and title support, and lots of polish here and there, including better readme and docs. Python 3.6 is no longer supported by Hist.
Both projects are part of Scikit-HEP, but like many Scikit-HEP projects (Awkward, iminuit, cookie, etc.), are more generally applicable than just High Energy Physics (HEP). See https://github.com/scikit-hep/hist and https://github.com/scikit-hep/boost-histogram , drop us a star if this is useful for you!

It's probably an important distinction between laptops and tablets that a laptop is free to expand into three dimensions when in use.

Strictly speaking, the throw of the keyboard when in use is not limited by the dimensions of the laptop when it's not in use. There is air above and sometimes below that the keys can occupy. Having the keys raise up when opening the lid might be mechanically impractical, but having the lid depress all of the keys is a matter of ignoring key presses until the lid is opened past an angle where it stops touching the top row of keys.

Based on the shape of the smudges on my screen I'm pretty sure that already happens to an extent.
lol. okay. I stand corrected.
Deer in the Seattle area only eat landscaping and garden plants. They leave the native plants and the invasive weeds alone.

I am saying I fully reject the means of NIMBYism, nevermind the ends.

But yes, I would be against reducing park space.

In this case I thought GP was celebrating the move for preserving park space, perhaps because this building isn't on the pier but just land? But I am not sure.
> svn was orders of magnitude better: you checked out a repo, you made local changes, you got to see the changes you made before committing, you committed changes,

The only extra step that git introduced was pushing the changes up to the remote.

- svn checkout -> git clone

- make changes (same for both)

- see changes (svn diff -> git diff)

> unless there were conflicting changes made in the meantime in which case you had to assert that you'd resolved those conflicts, possibly with help from merge tooling.

Which is what you would have to do with git as well if upstream was updated and you pulled it down to your working copy with git.

> However, I think it does a tremendously bad job of abstracting and conceptualizing that complexity.

I think part of the problem is that people want to make getting changes from the repository and sending changes to the repository a single step, whereas git only did that for getting changes with the git pull command. There's no corresponding git push command that handled committing as well as pushing the changes to the remote.

What should have been done was to never give that option. That is, the git pull command should not have been a thing and people would have to learn that there are two steps. One is the network operation of getting the changes or sending the changes and the other is to apply those changes to the working copy or staging those changes in the working copy before sending them over the network.
Thanks, I remember doing this once, but before I wrote the comment spent 5 minutes trying to do it again and couldn't figure it out.

This is interesting. It reminds me both of a common piece of advice for meditating ("If you feel overwhelmed by the task of paying attention to your breath for X minutes, just ask yourself if you can pay attention to just one breath, then just one more, etc.") and procrastination. Two things that I don't normally associate with each other.
Cardiovascular effects of nicotine are probably more dangerous than potential carcinogenic nature of smoking.

edit: smoking is carcinogenic, but how much of it is because of nicotine I wouldn't know; a smoker might not live long enough to find out at what age the cancer develops if he drops dead because of the heart infarct.
Kotlin/Native is hardly a stable target, given that they botched the implementation by going with an incompatible memory model as Java, and have spent the last year fixing it by rebooting it with a proper GC implementation.

Hardly any better than just using GraalVM or any other JVM AOT compiler, some of which go back to early 2000's even if only available in commercial JDKs.

The JavaScript compilation target still needs to do some catching up with TypeScript.

Humanity Work in Progress VER.0.3
The world sees a large fraction of American voters as outright crazy, gun wielding, obese, fanatic, dangerous science and common sense deniers in ridiculously large cars with Trump stickers, especially the ones in the republic party, I can tell you that and I know exacly nobody thinking different.

It started with the big "weapons of mass destruction" lie that had no political and personal consequences and half the country is on a fast downward spiral since then. It all would be funny to watch, if it were not the US; a country with so much responsibility, because a fraction of it's citizens literally own half of the world and half of the worlds weapons of mass destruction themselves. To be honest I'n not sure which large power I as a german fear most to do a big mistake China, Russia or the U.S. under right wing madness.
