I'm not sure there's a similar casual use for Heroin. Talk about Cannabis and the sentence starts making sense again.

Also, accusing responses of being semi-coherent, indulging and defensive (and implying responders are addicts to boot) isn't really acting in good faith, even if you don't intend to respond. In fact, especially since you don't intend to respond.

>Some other tech like solar, wind, batteries etc. perhaps?

The sun doesn’t shine at night, the wind doesn’t blow all the time, and batteries often are astronomically expensive and impractical at large scales. Nuclear is important specifically because of the greater penetration of renewables, that are inherently intermittent or variable. Nuclear provides a stable baseload to complement that variability.

A nuclear plant is producing its maximum capacity 93% of the time, as opposed to wind (34%) and solar (24%). To get 1 GW of reliable energy at any given time, you need 3-4 GW of wind and solar in the hope it will be enough, as opposed to 1.1 GW of nuclear. (Worth noting that coal is only 48% reliable). So I’m not sure where people are getting the “unreliable” part. [1][2]

As for safety, nuclear power one of the safest forms of energy generation there is, which is in line with solar and wind. [3] Finally, if we are talking about expense, it is only expensive when you compare it to coal and natural gas, which are baseload generating power sources. Again, with intermittent renewables, it is cheaper to build nuclear than to massively overbuild solar, wind, and grid level batteries.

Capitalism and Socialism aren't the only ways to organize society. The state could force every company that operates within it be beneficial to its citizens.
My company is very family oriented, so a lot of seniors are staying while juniors are leaving. My company isn't competing on wages (somewhat competitive), but big on benefits such as good PTOs, good hours and minimum on-calls.

They are also making technology fun, hackathons, a lot of greenfield projects and tech refresh every couple of years. Even thought we are not a tech company, our tech org actually makes money, so we get a lot of budget to play with.

Funny thing is, I can make 25% more than what I make here, but I just can't see myself working for a company where WLB is a mess.
> Stopping returns in the name of the environment could easily have the unintended consequence of resulting in more discarded new products due to lack of customer confidence.

At least, until manufacturers compensate by producing less stuff. People consuming less is a good thing for the planet and a bad thing for the way our society is structured.
No, that's incorrect. We provide a catalog of services as public APIs consumed via HTTP/JSON. So far we offer 35+ services which you can see here https://m3o.com/explore. Those services are open source and you can see the source code at https://github.com/micro/services. The entire suite of services are built using the Micro platform which is also open source. Think Android for Cloud.

Not even one person considered talking to this man first. If he really had a bomb you’d be dead either way. Why has humanity invented language? Just to not use it? Instead emergency land, evacuate, police until finally someone talks to him?

Hackers have always been involved in politics in some way, even if they didn't do so willingly. The GPL itself is a very bold political statement and as RMS has remarked "Even if you're not interested in politics, politics is interested in you!" (paraphrased).
Not sure why you’d assume that those who voted “remain” don’t change their thinking by then.

As other have mentioned the status quo is now something entirely different and “remain” won’t mean much in a decade.
If you follow the (Latin) origin it is even wider, in Italian artifact is artefatto where while the art (arte) part is as you say, the fatto comes from fare (Latin facere) which translate to "made".

And we say "fatto ad arte" to mean that it is "intentionally made" i.e. artefatto is something that doesn't happen normally or naturally and/or does not exist in nature.

I wonder if there are some nice tools for "scribbling over hexdump" somewhere, and also rendering pretty output based on that. It tends to be really helpful both when synthesizing/assembling some binary formats, as well as debugging/decoding/disassembling existing ones (and then ideally also writing blogposts based on that). I saw some "annotation" tool like this in one disassembler I tried once, but it wasn't super great, and didn't allow for easy tweaking & moving of annotation groups after doing some changes in the output. I'm pretty sure this is something that's done very often by reverse-engineering people, so I'd assume tools like this should already be popular, just I don't know how to find them? I know there's also some Lua API with support for disassembling many protocols in WireShark, but I don't suppose it's easy to prototype & quickly iterate new formats in it (?)

For some really beautiful hand-made annotated binary format hexdump, see e.g.: https://github.com/corkami/pics/blob/master/binary/DalvikEXe...

If someone knows of tools fitting more or less what I described above, I'd be super grateful for some recommendations!!

Because it is a bit politically charged and with that, by doing upon a personal blog the company always has that plausible deniability excuse and from a business aspect - this is best way as affords best of both Worlds. If it goes well, good, if there is a twitter rabble mob, then as not company domain - the good old - nothing to do with the company and the rouge individual excuse can be plausibly played.

Worth noting that a lot of other EU countries have similar policies.

The UK has launched a consolution on how to improve Data Protection Laws.

One campaign on this consultation is to abolish the stupid Cookie Consent requirement, that is evidenced again and again to be wholley pointless.

Anouther campaign with this consultation is to enable medical researches to use anonomised NHS data. The National Health Service (NHS) is huge and useing that data could usher in some great medical advancements.

The government cites a project at Moorfields Eye Hospital and the University College London Institute of Ophthalmology where machine learning technology was applied to thousands of historic de-personalised eye scans to identify signs of eye disease and recommend how patients should be referred for care.

There is no plans to weaken GDPR. Even if there was Adam Bird's company is welcome to go above and beyond the requirement.

It's all nonsense, move if you want to. At this stage he doesnt even know what is changeing, to state Brexit and GDPR as the reason is premature.
It's the double hit though... they're also jacking the Marker Plus price to try to force a subscription.
Can you install GCam as apk from somewhere? Will it work? I use GCam on the default Android (8) on my Nexus 6P and it works well. I am thinking of upgrading to Pixel 2XL or 3A and install Lineage OS with GCam, so I believe it would be a much better experience than the default ROM on a Pixel. But I have no idea whether GCam would work in LOS.

The title:

> A Whirlwind Tutorial on Creating Really Teensy ELF Executables for Linux

as opposed to ELF Executables for non-Linux systems, or a.out executables for Linux. In the middle of the article, when the illegal shenanigans start:

> Unless, that is, we could change the contents of the structures to make them match even further....

> How many of these fields is Linux actually looking at, anyway? For example, does Linux actually check to see if the e_machine field contains 3 (indicating an Intel 386 target), or is it just assuming that it does?

At the end of the article:

> Of course, half of the values in this file violate some part of the ELF standard, and it's a wonder that Linux will even consent to sneeze on it, much less give it a process ID. This is not the sort of program to which one would normally be willing to confess authorship.

I don't see how the author could possibly be any clearer that this is Linux-specific and will probably not work (unmodified) on non-Linux systems.
With your explanation everything is just a shorthand. All you really need is NAND.

Streams are a library feature, records are a language feature. Streams could be implemented outside, records could not (no lombok abominations are not records).

I remember reading somewhere some transit authority was trying to improve traffic flow into either the Lincoln tunnel or Holland tunnel.

The result of the simulation was both interesting but also unrealistic.

In order to improve intake from the feeder streets the simulation recommended something no normal drivers would do in rush hour: IIRC it wanted drivers to obediently and predictably do alternate lane merges as well as some intricate braided flow pattern. It was great if you were working with logical components but utterly impractical in reality. I don’t think any semblance of that system was ever implemented as it was obvious it would fail worse than the current bad design.
It's crazy how you brush aside the elderly and "unhealthy" as people who can die without your consideration and you think their deaths only 'mess up' the numbers. They are treated like an undesirable population whose deaths shouldn't be taken into account.

Shouldn't we vaccinate, wear masks and social distance if only to help the elderly and "unhealthy"?

Right to health is not guaranteed. Nor is safety! They get pumped into pursuit of happiness, but again, you'd better have some good legs, or a hell of a wheelchair.

Modern civilization and freedom may come with some obligations and strings attached, but at no point do those justify anyone else as a matter of normalcy, forcing medical intervention or procedures on you unwillingly. We all hope everyone has the good sense to come around eventually; but forced medical procedures is not it. Down that road lay too much atrocity fodder.

It's also notable that in developing nations (which are often the most populous) there maybe little appetite for luxuries such as gaming, but plenty of reason to invest in crypto precisely because of lack of faith in government/banking infrastructure.
There’s just a certain point in your career where you have way too much to do and you realize you’ll never get it all done. I have a zillion things in my personal backlog, and I just accept that some of them won’t get done. I’m always going to be disappointing someone.

Besides, a person’s disappointment stems from their own expectations going unmet, not your competency. Frequently those expectations weren’t reasonable in the first place.

I don't. I was hopeful back in January, but as of now no I don't.

I don't disagree with anything you said about Trump. he was/is a jackass and a shitty person, and is in the argument for worst president in US history, if there is even an argument to make.

I don't want to debate why Biden is better than Trump from a wholistic perspective, because I agree that he is. I do not agree that he is doing a good job.

1) I wasn't trying to imply that the parsers themselves aren't working but that you might have to debug programs using these parsers more often as its not apparent that the issue lies in the input instead of the program having to handle it.

I can honestly see why you would do this, but I’m not sure the over all ecosystem would benefit from this.

Consider the user’s perspective. If they’ve decided to be locked into your stack and your company dies (/becomes prohibitively expensive/etc), they can still host the stuff themselves on premise - a welcome step out, but also quite expensive. There are reasons they wanted cloud hosting in the first place, after all. They can not get another cloud service.

You may be able to somewhat work around this problem by doing a deal like the Qt Company has with KDE: If you can’t meet certain criteria, the code will be released under an open license.
Ask HN: Does a dynamically scaling cloud workstation exist somewhere?
I frequently work with some 'data science' projects that go from some MB to hundreds of GB.

Ideally I'd have a cloud terminal I'd connect to which could scale its RAM to fit my process RAM usage (and possibly scale up CPUs transparently too).

I know that you can scale up various cloud instances, but managing the runtime state is a problem. I'd like to avoid ever having to kill whatever processes I have running.

Something like Google's Live Migration would also be a good match here, if it enabled migrating to a bigger machine type without rebooting, or without otherwise losing process state.

Ideally I'm looking for something that I could transparently scale up and down, and which I could always SSH into without having to manually start/shutdown the instances.

Bonus points if GPUs could be added/removed in the same manner.
The EU has a lot of downsides too though (e.g. the link tax, video age verification laws, mandatory high sales tax, mass immigration).

The saddest part is that the NFT concept has a practical use: ticket sales. But it seems just like with all the other practical uses the investor class keeps passing them by for the "to the moon!" nonsense schemes. Seriously, why are boring ventures that have solid business models baked in the thing that modern would-be investors avoid? Is it because there's not enough digits on the ROI? Sorry for the rant but I've seen this a trend across many other industries such as power generation. I read a comment of a CEO in a trade magazine years ago talked about how he had investors snub investing into utilities because they felt 5-7% a year was too low or pointless as a return.
There's some bug we keep hitting that causes some EC2 instances to reboot on shutdown instead of halt and terminate. AWS engineers promised a fix months ago, no news yet.

No wonder pupils don't have respect for teachers, they might just simply don't deserve any. Teaching kids and normalizing being surveilled is a far greater threat than suicide. I doubt this was a teacher too proficient in math, but that is dwarfed completely by the pedagogical failure.

Glad not every country follows through with this strategy. Metal detectors at school, complete surveillance? The ways people go through to evade being mindful of their own children. Not your intention teaches kids, it is your behavior and in this case also you fears.

> schools spent billions of dollars on security infrastructure

Phew, someone could have wasted that on education. Software companies that supply such software should just be ashamed of themselves if they enable such misbehavior.

> have started questioning whether their contracts with the police create more harm than good
