This is the Great Man theory of history applied to industry. Without Tesla, someone else would have done it because the confluence of available technologies came together.
I didn't read it as if they switched away from rice cakes but that they used brownies in another event. Rice cakes in general are pretty great as on-bike nutrition and used by world tour teams.

They also have their coupon thing [1] which is an anti-consumer feature. If I wanted them scanning my shopping carts I can get an addon. I assume they're building a profile on me with that data.

I honestly thought Edge would be able to take market share from Chrome because it was pretty good for a while if you were willing to log in to your MS account on all your devices. I like the syncing. The QR code scanning to get something onto my phone is handy.

I thought MS was going to make a less creepy version of Edge. Now it seems like the opposite. They're going to build a 90s style toolbar infected monstrosity on top of Chromium. For shame!

Haha I just kept gallivanting around Paris afterwards, I spent 10 days in France and cumulatively slept maybe 30h total.

I hadn't done much riding that summer because of a broken ankle and actually re-fractured it mid-ride from vibration/stress while descending into Brest. The biggest trouble was that it was impossible to get any ice for it, but I found nice self-adhesive bandages to immobilize it the next day and was fine completing the ride.

Now I'm almost curious if every PCI slot has a pin equivalent to the power button pin on the mainboard and also feed some basic background power to the cards even when turnt off. I doubt it actually is this simple though, the industry rarely chooses KISS.
Kudos, Slava!! About 15 years ago, what really surprised me was the speed at which jEdit used to start up and react, compared to many other JVM-based applications. I found it to be a great, simple editor - I am an avid Emacs user for the most part.
It's not the control system, it's the psychology. People just aren't willing to let the car control the temperature automatically. It drives me nuts, but that's the reality. I've yet to find a car made after about 1990 that doesn't handle it better than people do. Fiddling with the setpoint and/or the output just makes the system never settle. If you just leave it alone it gets the job done. But I'd say it's about 10-20% of drivers that actually do that. The rest screw with it constantly.
Nice, I really like how they left the 'Dell, proprietary' in place :)

It's interesting that a board schematic has apparently left Dell, is that sort of thing common?

It also would be quite hilarious to return the machine to Dell for servicing, I think they would be quite confused.

My mother's family has an (apocryphal?) story about an ancestor whose unit during the civil war caved and slaughtered some of their horses for food while starving.

After returning home from the war, he determined to raise horses for meat. The first taste-testing, as the story goes, was underwhelming.

I'm something of an elixir zealot, but I have to say that Clojure has the most pleasurable syntax for this kind of thing out of any programming language.
Contrary to other responses, you can certainly use OOP programming to solve these problems, and I think that is a better way to do it. You wouldn't write 100 line blocks of dense algorithms in prod code, why do it here? Thinking about breaking things into objects makes a lot of the problems easier to solve in my opinion.

That said, I don't think it's great for really getting in depth understanding of any language in particular - you'll only use a limited subset of language features for these problems.

Funny I just saw this thread, today I learned that my integrated (not removeable) XPS 15 9570 laptop battery just died just a few months after my warranty expired on my Dell XPS laptop... The Internet is littered with complaints about dell PCs failing after warranty, and how recalls are covered up on them frequently.

And my XPS desktop had faulty connections on it's mother board (That were known by Dell even before I bought it) for the Hard Drive controller that I discovered just after the warranty replacement expired on it... 2 problems that lead to costly repair and buying expensive replacement parts.... I have a 10 year old Dell XPS 16 that still runs (granted only windows7), but I never had any problems with it.... XPS quality has declined greatly since my first one.

The standard 1 year warranty isn't enough for the way Dell computers have become shoddy, I'm deeply disappointed in Dell, and will not be buying any more of them... I don't have time to build my own, does anyone know a rock solid/powerful brand I can buy instead of Dell? I kind of miss Micron PCs.

Apache has shipped with an event-based backend for many years now, so in terms of architecture it's on par with Nginx (while still supporting the classic pre-forking).

Personally I've found apache is more fully featured for niche use cases. For example you can do client cert authentication, then further look up a username from the certificate in ldap for authorisation - all from your apache configuration. For Nginx many of these niche use cases seem to be gated behind Nginx Plus.
I think you have a valid point here, but it does not do anything to save this paper.

The paper claims to have refuted the possibility of what Searle calls Strong AI, but speculating that the universe has behaviors not describable with computable functions does not justify that conclusion. As Simonh pointed out above [1], Strong AI does not imply or depend on everything about the universe being computable, and even if it did, mere speculation that some unknown thing about the universe might not be computable would not justify inferring that therefore Strong AI must be impossible.

This paper is combination of an unargued-for tacit premise with a rather blatant case of burden shifting.

ZIP in itself can have different compression algorithms. deflate and "no compression" (store) being the most common by far (because compatibility reasons), followed by deflate64 and and a long tail of things like bzip2, zstd, lzma and others (the ones I mentioned are some of the methods "officially" assigned a method number by pkware). A lot of software uses zlib to implement zip, and there the only real options for broad compatibility are therefore deflate and no compression. deflate has a small fixed-size window buffer, with no compression you can avoid such a buffer altogether. No compression is quite alright if you put data into the archive that cannot be compressed efficiently anyway, like already compressed multi-media formats, and it will save you and whoever uses the archive later a bunch of compute.

The only thing that may eat up memory is the final name directory in the "footer".

No compression also has the added benefit that you can pre-compute the final size of the zip file if you know what goes into the zip already (it's just a matter of summing up the sizes, and the sizes of the info entries and final footer entries), which can be nice when sending the result over http, as it enables you to send a Content-Length, instead of not sending one because you don't know it yet, using chunked transfer encoding and letting the browser show some "20MB of unknown downloaded".

Then it really depends on the implementation. A lot of libraries will buffer in an entire input file, compress it in one go and store the result back to disk or some buffer, and things like that.

But it is perfectly possible to implement a zip writer that implements a stream/callback interface to read the result compatible with whatever your language is using (e.g. C++ istream (yeahyeah :P), C# Stream, python file-like objects, node Readable streams, etc).

With the python standard library zipfile implementation, while it is possible to open "file-like objects" (i.e. objects implementing read/write/seek, like a BytesIO buffer), it isn't really possible easily to drain the data after just a chunk of it is done (or have it output to network/http streams, as these usually do not or cannot implement seek). The OP implementation solves this by defining everything you want in the zip beforehand and then using python generators to get the data out in chunks that you can then write to whereever you want sequentially.
I've had such a different experience in my vehicles. Even my 2000 Honda Accord had thermostatic controls that were usually excellent at keeping me comfortable. These days with remote start from an app and scheduling trips it can be 100F outside but by the time I'm getting in the car is a nice 73F inside.

I'm not constantly fiddling with my home's thermostat, why would I be doing the same with my car's? I'm sorry all your cars have had such terrible AC systems.

The answer is Bitcoin and it's not even close even when compared to all internet capable devices in the world.

Here is a napkin math-

Bitcoin mining consumes around 91 TWH of electricity each year. [1]

There are 20B internet capable devices out there. Let's assume a conservative estimate of 2 KWh/day (taken from my computer which is on almost 24/7) for a device.

2x20x365 = 14TWH

Bitcoin consumes 6.5x more electricity than all the internet capable devices in the world.

> This is the very tangible result of suboptimal choices.

I agree - I've always liked that story about the grocery store.

I don't think bad policies are something that can be straightforwardly extrapolated into a course to the Soviet Union though. The US has had price controls in the past but backed off. Even large welfare states like Sweden eventually hit a point where they stopped or turned back the expansion of the public sector (reducing marginal rates, eliminating wealth taxes, spending as % of GDP leveling off, etc).

The Soviet Union even collapsed while it was heading in a more positive direction from where they were at (reducing state political and economic control).

So there doesn't seem to me to be a straightforward connection between incremental policy changes and collapse.

I don't see a clear connection between collapse and subsequent "steering back" either. Support for the market economy and multiparty democracy in Russia are both at record lows [1]. Venezuela has undergone an economic collapse but is still very dysfunctional. Neither seems on track to catch up with western countries any time soon.

It's interesting to contrast this with China, which had similar issues to the Soviet Union (of having an inefficient state-run economy) and had heavy debate about how to go about reforming it [2]. At least for their economic prospects the incremental path they chose seems to be working out better.

Centralized hospital and clinics in certain locations. Don't allow building healthcare based on maximized spread. When there are multiple alternatives next to each other, it generates not just competition for customers (patients) but also doctors/nurses employments. Also build fully government subsidized hospitals in each of this location to force the private pricing not escalating. Then every hospital admins will need to undergo 6mths IRS audit. This force the job extremely undesirable and reduce the demand for it.

Speaking personally, you try to wait for a proper bathroom. Failing that, you spend miles looking for just the right secluded spot. Boys have an easier time at it. Male pro racers are known to kinda... pause pedaling, and aim away from the bike. In women's races, the leader calls the pit stops.

Eating is the easy part. With care, I've managed to eat a burrito without missing a beat.

This is an enormous thread now - in case it hasn’t already been mentioned, Guix neither helps nor hinders users from using any kernel they like. There is a repository called nonguix, made available by community members, which includes the upstream, non-free kernel, as well as microcode updates for Intel processors.

The Guix project states clearly that it does not support these uses of the software, but that users are free to use it - because the software is released under the GPL.

So what exactly is the problem? The Guix maintainers consider their users to be competent and able to make decisions for themselves - the charge of ‘evil anti-user behaviour’ isn’t so inappropriate as it is laughable and immature.

Also, as other commenters have mentioned, I have never had a warning that I need to install new microcode from any distribution. As a matter of fact, it would not surprise me if other distributions were not to give me a choice in installing new microcode - if I’m running underpowered hardware (not uncommon for hobby Linux users, especially if the hardware is known to be well supported), and I don’t have much to lose on that hardware, having mitigations against things like Spectre/Meltdown is a calculated decision given the performance impact, so why shouldn’t I at least be able to choose? With Guix, this is a one-liner in your configuration.scm file.
The problem with the current situation is if the stock market gets too divorced from reality, it won't matter if the stock price is high or not. There will be physical shortages of goods. The stock market is supposed to represent capital formation where people set up systems to produce stuff in the future. If the stock market gets too broken, those systems won't be in place and stuff won't be produced.

As a tangential aside it is fun to imagine how an animal perceives shopping - humans walk in to a shop, picks up some stuff, and walk out. It seems very communal. Some humans get in trouble when they pick things up and walk out but it isn't obvious why. They get called thieves. The humans know a bit more than that - the trick is a complex system of bookkeeping, represented by money, to track who is entitled to how much of what. The bookkeeping only matters if people trust that it accurately represents entitlement. If the trust is lost there is hell to pay.

I have attempted twice to ride from Hannover to Berlin in a single day which is approx. 280km.

First try I made 140km. It was a hot day and the main issue I had was that I sweat more than I could drink. Also it was getting night and I was afraid of not being able to get a train anymore so I abandoned.

For the second try I started at night (2am) to make sure I had a chance to make it in time. Around 4pm after over 180km I had to abandon because the cycle path ended and it was too dangerous to drive on the road with all that traffic.

Anyway it was a very pleasant experience as you pass many nice towns and other sightseeing. I stopped countless times to take pictures.
Riding 100km, or even 200km is less harder than many expect it to be.
