Caches aren't a problem, you can just persist memory. The problem is the non-RAM internal state of everything. You can preserve CPU register state and various operating modes, but persisting the state of every hardware device you use is a big, undocumented challenge.

Virtualization systems like qemu-system or VMware support suspend/resume, which is essentially the same problem.

Wrt. to letting them being designed and produced by TSCM and similar, yes.

But if you wan to do production "from scratch" it's a complete different matter, even if the chip is "simple" you still need a proper chip production method, which is never simple.

There is a reason why we only have very few fabs today, even through there is a lot of demand for chips using "older" production methods (>28nm). It's often still not profitable to produce them even for companies which have all the necessary patents, know-how and even some older existing machinery. A thing the care industry was hit hard by.

The CDC once again continues to bungle its messaging, which is only going to fuel vaccination controversy and anti-vaxxer talking points.

According to the CDC, "The COVID-19 vaccines approved and authorized in the United States continue to be effective at reducing risk of severe disease, hospitalization, and death."[1]

Walensky has repeated this[2]:

> “The evidence shows that all three COVID-19 vaccines authorized in the United States are safe — as demonstrated by the over 400 million vaccine doses already given," Walensky said.

> "They are all highly effective in reducing the risk of severe disease, hospitalization, and death, even in the midst of the widely circulating Delta variant," she added.

If you have vaccines for which the initial series is "highly effective" at reducing the risk of severe disease, hospitalization and death, why would you tell people that you're considering changing the definition of "fully vaccinated" to exclude individuals who have received the initial series?

Trump media SPAC stock doubles, bringing 2-day gains to 800% in trading frenzy
I'm not in the VFX industry, so I can't really offer much help in terms of your specific needs, but I do have a few questions to ask in case someone else may be able to better address them:

Do you have a particular distribution or sets of distributions in mind? My guess is that you're looking at Redhat or OpenSuse.

What particular tasks will you set these machines to (e.g. drawing, sculpting, rendering, schedule management, etc.)?

What's your support system like? Do you have in-studio certified Linux technicians if something goes wrong? If not, do you intend to purchase a support contract where you can reach out for personalized help 24-7?

Are there particular software packages you need and are you aware of the state of their compatibility or lack thereof with Linux? If they are not compatible, have you found suitable alternatives? I'm assuming you're going to use software products from Adobe, the Foundry, Autodesk, Houdini, etc. Many Linux versions of these products tend to be built as afterthoughts if they're ever at all officially supported.

Do you have any specialized hardware (e.g. Cintiqs)? If so, have you taken the time to test for driver issues?
How do you think the CEO of flexport became CEO?
Anyone who works as security/law enforcement is going to have a significantly more cynical view of humanity. Not unlike how software professionals are leery of software quality (e.g. us being generally opposed to digital elections).

Personally public transport in Barcelona felt safer than the equivalent in most major North American cities. For example there’s what I believe is a bullet hole in the glass at one of the stations I frequently use — and I know for a fact that several people have been shot dead directly outside that station.
Hmm. If anybody is sitting on an idea that needs used shipping containers, now might be the time to pick some up.
Accenture and IBM and all the other bottom tier software configuration consultancies must be foaming at the mouth at all the opportunities to implement tracking of increasingly confusing sets of rules for who is allowed to go into the office. The main thing (other than violate peoples rights) that these things accomplish is create work for legacy enterprise software companies.

Nah, there’s plenty of containers for that. If they want a container they’ll have to buy something.
It's basically the old, "Let's run it up the flagpole and see if anyone salutes it." If no one complained about hot reload being a proprietary feature after being presented as a free improvement in the SDK then they wouldn't have reversed gear.
You're probably thinking of the ethernet controller, which is often cited for the Pi 3 and earlier.
> If that doesn't happen, how many of them will get bank loans to get them out of this mess?

I think you have just affirmed what I have said.

USA is world's biggest, but an extremely fragile economy which is full of businesspeople too used to bailouts from a caring government. It's a bigger miracle it never seen major crisises from "encounter with reality" before.

> We truly are talking about a Lehman Brothers scale of a problem, and as Ryan pointed out, the only way to fix this is to unblock the ports. So if you're eventually going to have to do it, why not do it before millions of companies go out of business as opposed to only after that's happened?

I think it's essential in a capitalist market economy to let the market forces to do their job, and for Lehmans to pop from time to time. USA faces such a big crisis during every new "Lehman Brothers moment" exactly because it never lets its Lehmans fail.

Now, imagine China will embargo USA next time... Trade with USA is just a few percent of China's GDP today.

I did intern in BestBuy 10 years ago, and I know what insane portion of profit comes from around Xmass. I honestly want the US to really fail here, and fail hard, and have a Lehman moment again. It's vitally important for the US to finally have such crisis to turn the ship around, pun intended.

Or the next time, spoiled US kids will find out that there are way worse things in life than missing their new iphone 15 for christmas.
> In comparative studies of populations it has been shown to still be substantially effective at preventing infection even after antibodies wane.

Source?

> You are trying to make a statement about a counterfactual what if ___ country didn't vaccinate the imputation being that the vaccines aren't effective

I linked to an analysis by a Harvard professor. Who uses official government data of the respective countries. So I think I have good reason to take that seriously.

> because 2 different countries with dozens of confounding factors doesn't show a high enough correlation.

Yes there must be many confounding factors. But your phrase: "doesn't show a high enough correlation" is putting it mildly. How about: no correlation at all?

But I would love to see data that shows a population-level effect of mass vaccination on the covid infection rate.

> The MRNA vaccinations are 95% effective at keeping you out of the hospital or the grave.

This is the sort of percentage that got thrown around a lot at the start of the vaccination campaign. But for protection against infection/transmission. Just one of many examples:

https://www.reuters.com/article/health-coronavirus-israel-va...

The idea that the vaccinated have become (mostly) asymptomatic spreaders of the viruses, is nothing to celebrate. This is a scenario that can push the evolution of the virus towards more dangerous variants:

Look at rates of hospitalization and death.

It appears that the Moderna vaccine at least is very effective at reducing severity but does not prevent infection (or does not do so well enough).

This ironically makes it more dangerous to not be vaccinated since vaccinated people are more likely to be asymptomatic carriers.

I’ll take it over nothing. It’s damn good for getting a vaccine in a year. There will probably be better ones in 2-3 years.
A lot of fraternities/clubs buy into this through hazing, but this is getting chomped down upon by many universities.
To be clear, I don't know about this case in particular, but the current administration has admitted to be in direct contact with social media platforms to tag "problematic" posts. And they may not even need to because the implicit threat is there.

I used to be part of the "its a private platform" group, but I asked myself the question, what would actual government censorship look like. And I couldn't think of an answer that would make what we have today not censorship.
The core of it is getting closer to true "reactive" programming. If you use hooks right™, you generally don't have to worry about how to handle values over time. React does all that plumbing for you (which is why we need all the dependency arrays).

This for me is the main advantage over class components. You don't need to worry about the various lifecycle methods (including having separate methods for componentDidMount and componentDidUpdate and making sure you do all the plumbing right when your parent changes props that you weren't expecting).

IMO, React really could have benefited from devoted language syntax for this (like Svelte does) to automagically and statically track all the dependencies. But React has an ethos of being "just JavaScript" (even JSX desugars to relatively straightforward React.createElement calls, and you can treat those nodes like regular JS objects, pass them around willy nilly, etc.), so it didn't happen (and instead we have lint rules like ESLint rules-of-hooks that are designed to enforce the invariants that really the programming language should enforce).

Edit: The other nice things about hooks is their composability (and this is in fact related to what I said above). With class components, a component can have one state object, so it's hard to compose with other "mixin" type behaviors that need their own dedicated state. You ended up with weird patterns like higher order components (à la Redux withStore) that have basically ceased to exist with hooks (replaced by a useStore hook which can opaquely manage its own state under the hood).
No, but it's repairable and if you are a repair shop they do provide schematics for you allowing you to do "proper" repairs instead of just replacing large components.

Also the dimensions/interface around there interface modules is open so anyone can freely produce new ones.
Another poster said ships that would normally take empty containers back to China are now just unloading and leaving empty. If that's the case, it seems like it's trading short term gain for a longer term problem. Make them take the empties?
Sure, It’s Metabase(https://github.com/metabase). Our stack is Clojure and javascript.

I actually found this startup on GitHub bc I was looking for projects that use Clojure.

But I also got some offers from Angelist as well.
If you offer a targeted price reduction to unsustainable levels in all areas a competitor operates and says you do it to crush the competition then you will have a really bad time in court. If you however said that you did it to provide better services to those poor people then at least you have a fighting chance.

I guess this change in wording is why we mostly stopped seeing companies taken to court over anti-competitive practices in USA. Since we reworded all the "crush the competition" to "provide better services" the courts are now unable to tell when companies are behaving in an anti-competitive manner.
As of late their has been a bit of a disturbing trend to ignore everything before the past 5 to 10 years, that is why I ask such questions.
> Moreover, you almost never have to wait a long time to check out.

Haha, I take it you haven't been to the ones in Manhattan?

I would go to Trader Joe's much more often if not for the mandatory 15+ minutes of waiting in line.
You keep not understanding that the problem is using words like 'legitimate' and 'known'. You can't keep sneaking those in, in such a factive way.

In real life, people don't have labels floating above their heads saying 'Liar', and statements don't have labels saying 'Known' or 'Malicious'. Someone, or some group, or some process, needs to decide what is true and what false, who is benign and who malign, and so forth.

And now that I've guided you to this point, I hope I don't need to explain where things can go wrong from there.
It's a business, of course they didn't make it altruistically.
Sure, why not? Would it be suspicious if you and your neighbor both shared the same local doctor and got similar medical advice?
I’ve been reflecting on this a bit lately. I’d really like to find a personal mentor in the world of Software Engineering and tech leadership.

I think we tend to let mentoring happen naturally in that space. Devs naturally learn from more experienced folks as they work. Sadly I’ve spent a huge chunk of my time working solo over the last 5 years. I’ve recently joined a FANG company and I’m excited about the prospect of finding a mentor there. The networking aspect alone is pretty killer. In general it’s nice to be somewhere that my peers push me on a daily basis. This reminds me that I need to be more proactive about finding a mentor.
While I'm sure the business drove the decision, some developer had to make the pull request, no? What I wonder is whether a "lose your job if you don't do as I wish" gun was stuck to a developer's head, or did they find the right developer with the right permissions to push this change through in spite of resistance? The former option gives me shudders, while the latter saddens me.

EDIT: grammar
People without a controls background typically mean "positive feedback" at all times, regardless of what words they use.
They are doing fine in cloud and gaming. I just wish they would focus on those markets and stop trying to by open source development.

Punched tape[0]: Hold my beer

Fox News was a pioneer in this technique and unfortunately CNN and MSNBC have followed suit.

In the early 2000s I was always astonished by how utterly misinformed Fox News viewers were. In 2021 I am always astonished by how utterly misinformed MSNBC CNN and Fox News viewers are. On certain subjects like the statistical risk of a 35-year-old healthy person getting hospitalized for covid, Fox News viewers are actually the best informed. They still overestimate the risk but not by orders of magnitude that the other two sets of viewers succumb to. My father is a rabid MSNBC and CNN viewer, and like many of your typical resistance boomers is grossly ignorant about most things happening in the world. In December he was ranting to me about how the US could have had zero covid if someone else had been president. While I agreed with him that it had been mishandled I tried to explain to him that there wasn't any countries able to keep it out except for very isolated island nations. He was completely ignorant of this.
He also freaked out when I contracted covid in February before I could give vaxxed. I was trying to explain to him that I'm very fit and healthy and relatively young but he really thought I was going to have to get hospitalized. This is when I started learning about the statistics on actual hospitalizations versus what the public thought.
One difference between these groups of people who watch these utterly stupid channels is that Fox News viewers are pretty aware that they watch biased news. They weren't in the early 2000s though. MSNBC and CNN viewers think they're witnessing objective reporting in general. My father is always quick to say that he reads articles from the AP as if they are objective. They are absolutely not objective anymore. Ideological capture is a thing. And it was purely ideological when the AP told their reporters to call what was obviously rioting "mostly peaceful protests". The aftermath of that absurd line of thinking was me witnessing many family members who were right of center to completely lose any and all faith in journalistic institutions. It was a watershed moment in media becoming untrusted by most of the working class.
systemd fully supports that.
Well none of the push for mandates or vaccine passports or other such nonsense makes much sense if the vaccines don't prevent spread and only provide an individual benefit of reduced risk. I mean, although many people are able to hold a blatant contradiction like this in their heads without experiencing cognitive dissonance, you can't really sell "we need to protect the vaccinated from the unvaccinated" without inherently casting doubt on the vaccines' efficacy against severe disease.

It is not widespread enough to justify continuing to work on it, and making an active decision to not include a feature anymore due to little use is not a bug.

The Chrome team published some good information about exactly how widely FTP is used: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JUra5HnsbR_xmtQctkb2iVxR... (see heading: Usage information)

Removing insecure protocols is a good thing, especially one that is commonly used to download software of all things. If you're one of the ~0.03% (as of late 2020) that relies on downloading files through FTP for whatever reason, there's nothing stopping you from downloading a more specialized client.

I truly don't understand what your problem here is: if you install an FTP client and it registers itself as a handler for ftp links with your OS, the process of downloading a file via FTP when you click on an FTP link should be pretty seamless.

Sounds like medical misinformation to me.
The “real” got workflow is the one that works. GitHub really helps me focus on real work and not software bookkeeping.

But I agree with the thesis of your comment.
Or the manager wrote a ticket to make the change, and the developer just did it as part of their job with no fanfare or minimal resistance seems like the most likely scenario

I can agree with you, but the issue is that this isn't an academic discussion on the merits of thorough vaccine trials. Here's the third verse:

(Brandon) How ‘bout some mean tweets? (Facts) Joe is a crook, and he knows how to decieve F.J.B. is the motto in these streets, let’s go, Brandon sing it with me"

I see a lot of claims but no questions. This wasn't written to question, it was written to enforce ideas already held by the listener. I agree that the song shouldn't be censored, but I also think it doesn't have any right to be promoted or distributed by third parties. YouTube has as much of a right to take the song down as Sound Cloud has to leave it up, which is exactly equal to any venue that chooses to let him perform on stage.
