Without Oracle, there wouldn't exist Java 17, MaximeVM made into GraalVM, J/Rockit JIT cache as OpenJDK DSA, J/Rockit monitoring as Flight Recorder,....

Also another interesting thing is how on the Canadian side there are three more power stations in the immediate vicinity of the falls, all of which are now out of use.

According to the paper, this is sending an estimate of a real number with a finite number of bits (possibly one). The method aims to reduce worst-case(?) error by relying on preshared state (in this case, the seed to a PRNG).
Good point, and 20+% is a huge understatement. SAAS companies that are public are mostly in the 70-90% range. Also, add how easy distribution of software is compared to physical products.

Ardour uses Lua as its scripting language. But then of course, it's also 100% open source, so you don't have to rely on what is made accessible via the scripting language. You can just change the actual source.

Of course, some people don't see things that way:

Yup. They should be easier to electrify, too. Mass produced electric passenger vans should be a thing. Considering transit vans are only like $50,000 apiece for 12 seats, they should be pretty dang cheap to acquire, too, compared to the $1 million 30 seat e-buses. Charging infrastructure should be the same as regular electric cars, too, which makes it cheaper and more flexible to deploy.
Then China invades, the fabs go up in smoke, and China is suddenly in a much better position to dominate in that field, too.

Indeed. It's an efficient engine by now: create fear of other; convert to anger; implant puppeteers' bidding; repeat.

In fact, they've been so effective at instilling a persistent, generalized fear, they can skip straight to the anger/action step.
I'm as leftist as it gets, but parent (and I assume you) is talking about cancellation. I don't think it's honest to compare a cancellation with having "zero people in the world who want to work with you".

Often cancellations happen due to external pressure, and even in cases where there's internal pressure (eg: Netflix-Chapelle-gate), there is definitely a non-zero number of people willing to work with the canceled person (and no, it's not only "other bigots" in this category).

Fair enough, but here's [1] how the picture looked just 4 years ago. Coal was at 33%, natgas at 33% an solar at 0.6%, wind at 4.7%. So a lot of coal was replaced by natgas, and a bit of wind. For some reason solar went up only by 1.7%

Interesting idea. I have thought about doing the trap cleanup but found it cumbersome to reason about when there are many functions so this is helpful. I would like to have seen a complete example at the end rather than just explaining why it's cool and then leaving it to the reader to imagine what it looks like.

Besides cleanup, one thing I think I would love to see is a good mechanism for logging. I have started to build a file for functions and then other files, which source that as a library and calls the functions as needed. I would love to be able to tell the library functions to log something if the parent file wants it, print to stderr or stdout by default or be silent if the caller wants that instead.
if the cost is attributed to "targeting everything" as you say, then wouldn't those things just get started by targeting one thing? Neither you or I can prove there are things not invented because of this, so nothing to debate here. The reason why pcwalton spent lots of effort jumping through hoops building a vector graphics library that targets lots of platforms is because we already know that vector graphics is something we had on a single platform. It is really hard for to imagine something not being invented/created at all because there isn't a single language that can express its computation everywhere simultaneously.

There are relatively few dietary sources of Vitamin D, fatty fish and fortified foods being the main sources. It is quite possible to eat a healthy diet and be deficient in Vitamin D if you do not eat these foods. The principal source of Vitamin D is exposure to sunlight on bare skin and people at northern latitudes cannot get sufficient exposure during the winter.

This made me really curious. The pumpkin is airtight and develops entirely within that airtight seal. It's full of gas pockets. How similar are the undisturbed contents of those gas pockets to atmospheric air?

Hey all, during the last COVID lockdown I didn’t know what to do with my time, so I created this little number puzzle app called Guriddo (グリッド, Japanese for grid).

What started as a small programming challenge has become a time consuming (but still fun) side project that regularly keeps me up late at night. At the moment Guriddo has around 300 active players, so If you enjoy playing Sudoku-, Kakuro- or Nonogramm-style like number puzzles, I urge you to give Guriddo a try.

If you have any further questions, suggestions, praise or criticism, do not hesitate!
Even if you do not want the new OS to run on anything else but your own laptop, that still needs a huge amount of drivers, for PCIe, USB, Ethernet, WiFi, Bluetooth, TCP/IP, NVME, keyboard / mouse / trackpad, sound, GPU, sensors, power management, ACPI and so on.

The volume of work for rewriting all these is many times larger than writing from scratch all the core of a new OS.

Rewriting them requires studying a huge amount of documentation and making experiments for the cases that are not clear. Most of this work is unlikely to present much interest for someone who wants to create an original OS, so avoiding most of it is the more likely way leading to a usable OS.

WebGPU is the proper answer here, it’s truly the future of cross-platform graphics. As developers we will be able to ship powerful 3D/VR experiences that “just work” everywhere that browsers exist.

The key is getting the major game engines to support these standards which is what my startup is working on.

We’re currently focusing on bringing WebGPU + WebXR + improved WASM support so real-time 3D apps and games can be deployed to end users wherever they are, no walled gardens required. It’s also the path to the metaverse, which needs to be built on open standards and protocols in order to be truly accessible to all, and not vendor-locked by an entity that seeks to own it all like Meta (FB).

> Of course interconnection is a big help, but transmission isn't "free" or unlimited, the flows between individual European countries is typically a small fraction (less than 10%) of the national consumption and generation.

It’s more than a little help. Just imagine how a blackout involving 10% of the population or Germany would look like, never mind the EU.

> And there are cases like Ireland which has its own grid - with very limited external interconnection - and yet achieved 42% renewable share last year.

You cannot really compare Ireland with many of the other EU countries, either in term of population or industry, though.

> Techniques/engineering/theory for integrating intermittent sources has advanced considerably in the last ten years.

They have. And it is a good thing, because it really should not be a competition between nuclear and renewables. They still have several issues, which are very difficult to solve without either a massive reduction in consumption, or a massive increase in price.

I really struggle to understand how almost all mainstream “green” parties see fossil fuels as a lesser menace than nuclear. The truth is, if you read their manifesto, that they don’t care about particle pollution beyond “cars are bad” (which is true, but insufficient) or climate change.

It is not a competition, it is a struggle to get rid of fossil fuels, which are an existential threat to our societies. We can sort that out and talk about fusion once we’ve done it. In the meantime, getting rid of fossil fuels is a massive undertaking, and we would be stupid not to use every card in our hand.
Thanks ! I don't think those questions are stupid at all, if anything those are things I should put in the README !

> 1. Is this targeted more towards the DSP and algorithm side of audio plugin development, or is there interest/use for the plugin side too (IE, generating VST/LV2 compatible interfaces)?

it does generate something compatible with VST2.x and I've been working on VST3 this week-end (and pulling a few hairs, that API is horrendous, the smallest example is a few thousand lines of codes).

For LV2 I don't think it will be directly possible as LV2 requires separate .ttl files which describe the plug-in. Technically one could make a small program which from the C++ reflection, outputs the .ttl on stdout and kindly ask CMake to call it and generate the .ttl file from it.

> 2. Would a byproduct of this be that you would be able to implement functionality + interact with C++ classes from other languages?

yes, that's a goal, make your DSP processor in C++ and then write a small UI for it in python or QML without having to write binding code.

I've tried to find ways to auto-generate a C ABI but sadly:

- asm("...") only wants string literals, strings generated through constexpr don't cut it (otherwise it'd be possible and even relatively easy to generate e.g.

asm(R"(
.global foo_set_x
.text
foo_set_x:
jmp _ZN3foo5set_xEi
)");

to wrap for instance a foo::set_x(int) method.

- I tried writing directly the binary code and appending it to the ELF sections but it seems that there's no easy way to do append to .symtab / .stringtab where the name of the symbols are without using a linker script.
It might not have been economically viable. The pace of obsolescence at that point in time was so fast that it might have been cheaper, over the course of two or three years, to just buy a whole new system than to retrofit a Pentium to a 386 mainboard.

Consider what else happened in the 386 through Pentium transition:

* The PCI bus became standard; your peripheral cards all needed to change.

* SDRAM became standard; the memory bus became significantly wider / faster, and you bottlenecked on RAM if you used older mainboards.

* IDE, while it was already used for hard drives, was now used for your CD drive too - you probably wanted a CD drive and not a second floppy drive (different controller) in your machine, which was harder if you only had a primary IDE bus.
Miller has a long history of criticizing Israeli foreign policy and he was gainfully employed during that time.

Obviously, he wasn't fired for 'criticizing Israel'.

He was fired for accusing Israel of 'ethnic cleansing' and indicated that Jewish students in the UK were 'pawns of Israel'.

Of his own investigation, he said: "Israel’s assets in the UK have been emboldened by the university collaborating with them to shut down teaching about Islamophobia."

Literally referring to Jewish UK citizens as 'Israeli Assets ' - while gaslighting at the same time, indicating they were after him for stopping his support of Palestinians, as opposed to his problematic rhetoric about Jews.

This is antisemetic ... and I have a higher bar for that kind of indictment frankly.

I would probably just make him apologize, but when you make inflammatory statements like that which are bigoted against a minority group, it's going to be a problem.

If he were to have made serious contemplation about Israel, and chosen his words, and provided evidence that somehow the Jewish community wasn't respectful of the material issues in Israel, then, he'd have a case.

He wasn't fired for something academic, or saying something uncomfortable to some i.e. 'I disagree with Israeli policy and think it's deeply problematic' - he was fired for much uglier language.

Any University professor would be fired for using that kind of language against Black or Latino students.

The 'comparable' issue is that US profs. are being disinvited/fired merely for indicating that they believe grades and awards should be based on merit, not race. Which is is not a racist or insensitive statement, even if some want to claim that it is.

As for 'Criticizing American Militarism' - that's just something that you made up.

Miller is not 'cancelled', he has a lot of support, he'll have a nice career somewhere else.
For those new to Hegel, The Accessible Hegel by philosopher Michael Allen Fox is a great nutshell introduction book.

As a software engineer, I was surprised to see how some of Hegel's ideas describe dynamics I've observed in my career. His dialectical process resembles how software systems evolve over time, and his "Spirit" reminds me of the ferment of ideas and collaboration on the Internet. The beauty of Hegel's rich texts is that each generation of readers brings him back to life in a new way.
This led me to this gem on Wikipedia: The i487SX (P23N) was marketed as a floating-point unit coprocessor for Intel i486SX machines. It actually contained a full-blown i486DX implementation. When installed into an i486SX system, the i487 disabled the main CPU and took over all CPU operations. The i487 took measures to detect the presence of an i486SX and would not function without the original CPU in place.

> Also FWIW, it's without doubt in my mind the best DAW by a long stretch

You did try to add some caveats to this, but I think it's really, really important to stress that there is no "best DAW". Workflows for audio production vary dramatically, and while Live is a very, very cool program, there are plenty of workflows for which it be inappropriate at worst, and not the best choice at best.

Fortunately, these days there's a DAW for everyone, and it sounds as if you've found yours.
Yes, that is covered in this half paragraph:

> Randomized rounding, where the sender sends 1 with probability x and 0 otherwise, and the receiver uses the received bit X as the estimate x', has the property that E[x'] = x. Unbiased estimators are arguably more natural for many estimation problems. Here the measure of performance would be the maximum variance for the estimate over all inputs x, so for randomized rounding the cost is 1/4 (when x = 1/2).

The "cost"/"variance" of 1/4 in the above paragraph is talked about later in the article as the "expected squared error"; the main result is a scheme that has a cost of just 0.04599, which is better than the "send a 1 with a probability x" scheme, which has a cost of 1/4 = 0.25.

If you're on a mac, even "Big Sur", check to see if the CSAM weights file is here at:

If you use un-jailbroken iOS 14 of course you can't easily check for the presence of the weights file, so you're already trusting Apple on their word.
Yep. I'm also a lifelong diehard demonstration-goer leftist myself and I sorta can identify (though I have no strong opinion on this matter at hand). I recently saw people accusing Bill Maher of the same. He said he's "not moving right, just refusing to move further left".

Although honestly I don't even think the twitter-mob people are all left, let alone "more left". Bernie Sanders (to use an American example) is left. Those are just authoritarian moderates, as oxymoronic as it sounds.
Sadly I bought my son a Lenovo couple Christmas ago forgetting all about their crappy behaviour. Forget the spyware their build quality is just garbage.

I am turned off of their products from that experience.
