'Apple Car' will disrupt auto industry, says Morgan Stanley
Why is that a problem? There are countless other "immutable" characteristics on which an employer can discriminate candidates. It ultimately comes down to finding a good fit for the particular culture of the particular workplace. For every candidate that is discriminated at one workplace, there is another workplace which would welcome them and discriminate members from the first workplace.
> According to Müller, LPRG incorporates four entropy sources that operate completely independent of each other including execution timing jitter and the timing of the arrival of interrupts.

Can you 'lie' to the operating system about these sources of entropy in order to control the random number generation?
The thing is duffs device is about IO, so the loop cannot be optimized away as it isn't a pure function. The example code though is a pure function and so the compile is justified in optimizing it away.

We have long known that in general compilers are better at optimization than humans so you should write readable code until a profiler shows otherwise. However there are cases where the compiler doesn't make an optimization. There are sometimes corner cases that the compiler can't figure out doesn't apply to you, so manually doing the optimization might work. These cases need to be re-evaluated with every CPU change, and every compiler upgrade though.

Nothing above says if duff's device applies to not though. Duff's device is very likely to hit a corner cases where the compiler isn't sure if it can safely apply optimizations so it won't. As such I wouldn't be surprised if it is still relevant. (though mostly on embedded systems where we don't have nearly as fast of CPUs as more common computers)

Honest question to those who find themselves vehemently disagreeing with one or more parts of this article. Would you still agree that totalitarianism is objectively bad for society? Regardless of which team you play for, surely there is grounds for some consensus here?

The article goes farther, saying:

"There was no evidence of discrimination against women in male-dominated professions or in mixed-gender professions, but the researchers did find evidence of discrimination against men in female-dominated professions."

They don't let you perform sandbox escapes but that doesn't necessarily matter if all of the important data is inside the sandbox, and it has enough capabilities to meaningfully exfiltrate. seccomp has this problem in spades; most apps
that "use seccomp" make practically every syscall under the sun available to make the policy apply cleanly. This is just an example not to be taken as totally illustrative. But very few people design their programs around seccomp or another sandbox mechanism, I find.

This doesn't apply obviously to cases where you design around having a sandbox, and at that point, I think the differences between something like WASM and SAPI or whatever are a lot murkier and more technical.

One thing about WASM that I feel is worth mentioning, which isn't technical so much as social, is that there's a lot of appeal/interest around simply "lift-and-shift" existing native code onto webassembly runtimes. That's good because that existing code is useful, but those apps aren't often designed with such sandbox architectures in mind. They often are designed (or at least consider) having binary-level mitigations applied, though. So I think this natural overlap in the set of use cases people have is what might give people pause. This is similar to the seccomp problem; retrofitting is a very big appeal even though it has some conceptual issues. This isn't some kind of indictment but if you're going to do an honest evaluation of these approaches I feel this background is worth keeping in mind.

I think if you designed an app with a sandbox architecture by default the best sandbox is the one you trust, WASM vs whatever be damned.
No, that would be an ETLA - "extended three letter acronym".
You've got a point (individually-run surveillance is much less concerning that societal-level surveillance), but you're completely ignoring that the most popular brands of cameras rely on sending video to centralized conglomerates.
Why would acknowledging that men are discriminated against minimize the concern for discrimination against women? Its ok to focus on more than 1 thing. Discrimination is wrong, never really understood the purpose of 'whataboutism'.

I'm just as tired of "X isn't dead" posts that take the phrase too literally.

Sure, blogging still exists... but blogging was the "thing" for a while, and now it's not the "thing." Even with any sort of revival, everyone already knows what it is, so it will never hit a peak with the same energy. No one's going to explain what blogging is during prime time on CNN.

Blogging is dead. Just like punk and disco are dead. They peaked and were co-opted by corporate interests to make profit (and that peaked too). "Real" blogging still exists, but relatively speaking, no one cares (and that's ok).
I'll admit this is a pessimistic take but it seems to be something that is happening throughout our society.

The goal of something like this is to center race to gain power.

The first step in the playbook for entrenching a woke ideology into a bureaucracy is to demand racial data/reporting. "hey look, this is an obvious problem... just look at the data". The next step is to demand a full diversity initiative. Next is hiring diversity inclusion and equity bureaucrats be installed. Once you have your own bureaucrats installed "inclusion" is used to promote fear and stifle speech or any descent. Now that no one can disagree or challenge the bureaucracy you can grow it and force it into the other bureaucratic functions.

As an journalism specific example: this is exactly what played out at The New York Times

This seems to be a very effective political strategy to gain power. It does seem to work. The question is how much does our society benefit?
I worked with a senior female colleague (featuring on lists of Most Influential Women in XYZ at the national level) who would regularly say things like "I only want to hire women to work for me" in meetings.

It is very disappointing that even I, as an Asian individual living in Canada, am disincentivized from expressing even my own opinion on China and HK/Taiwan, etc. due to the perceived threat of "consequences" from a government whose reach I cannot easily quantify.

Because power dynamics.

What if one workplace becomes the next Google? Suddenly, those favoured by that workplace have a large advantage over those discriminated against.

But it's usually sectors, rather than individual organisations, that blow up like that, and sectors tend to share culture. Don't think Google; think the entirety of Silicon Valley. You're an [immutable characteristic]? Tough; settle for lower working conditions, or retrain for another job.
Sure, I agree with you there, but background app permissions and push notifications seem like pretty separate issues.
I am not saying that.

But there are many (typically men's rights orgs) who seize on stories like this to say that 'enough is enough and truly it is us men who are being marginalized [in ways beyond what the article says]' and thats not at all true.
I'm not a government, so I don't care about the protected legal classes in whatever country he's in. His employers are morally obligated to come up with whatever fake excuse allows them to legally not hire this guy.
Question for people who seem to have experience in the space: why are corporate HR LMS / annual certification tools so universally bad?

I've never worked at a company where they've even been easy to use (for common use cases) or cross-browser compatible. Statistically, as a consultant who went through a lot of them, I feel like I should have.

Is it that HR is a cost center and so the market is price-dominated? Or that there's so much regulatory minutiae that change is glacial? Or something else entirely?
They're not flipping the businesses, they're running them. It's also possible to buy out multiple businesses from the same category, shutter some of the underperformers, and then enjoy the temporarily reduced competition in the category.

More evidence that China's arm reaches quite far, including inside the West.

Because China is willing to play dirty. If they hosted it, they would see Marriot executives arrested for "corruption", or Marriot hotels closed for "environmental damage" or similar things, like how they arrested two innocent Canadians as retaliation for the Canadian arrest of the Huawei executive.

This is why Nike, NBA, Hollywood, ... bow down to China, including inside the US, they know they will be crushed if they don't.
One obvious solution is to have the diagnosing doctor not be the treating doctor- and the diagnosing doctor doesn't get paid more for a positive diagnosis.
You are right. It has been productionized.
Yeah in France where I was born, which is no perfect by any means of course, we tend to call the american obsession with racial segmentation "racialism" and consider it just as bad as racism. Like racism is to grade races when racialism is to accept humanity can be segmented is such races, which we strongly deny as a nation, or so I was raised to believe (but again no lessons to give, we have issues in France)
as society change, its discriminations do too, we need to move from the idea of women being weak and good angels bcs a lot of womens in the first world can and will use their power as they want (not always in angelic ways)
You missed the argument against accountability for ones own words (aka "cancel culture"). To be fair, though, it was kind of shoehorned in. I wonder if it was the original point of the article?

And distribute the modified OS to all your customers how exactly? You could probably sell your own android based phone as long as you find a single manufacturer that isn't part of Googles OpenHandset alliance or bound by the Play Store license to only sell Google approved Android. Alternatively you could limit yourself to India and China where Google cannot enforce these terms. There really isn't any point in pretending that Android is an open OS in the west. It is Googles proprietary stack or nothing.
Corn (resp. maize) flour is also interesting for being an unusually 'correct' usage of 'flour' - if you look on Wikipedia it's easy to think it's 'incorrect', because it will show you 'cornmeal' and say 'for maize starch called cornflour in the UK' etc. but actually the starch, the endosperm, is the part of the grain (resp. corn! But that's too confusing) that when milled is properly called 'flour'. In general many 'flours' are more properly 'meals'. ('Cornmeal' is similarly accurate, but the meal vs. flour is a correct distinction, not a language error/regional difference that ought to lead to mistakes. I suppose it's just called 'starch' in the US hence the wording of the 'if you mean'.)
That's what I do. It's called "direct primary care". In the last 10 years, I've used two DPC doctors. I loved my first doctor because we had the same philosophies towards health. Last year she started drifting too "mainstream" and I didn't like her style, so I switched and took my money elsewhere. I found a new guy who is really aligned with me and it's been great. It's almost as if having choice and market can work :)

I get the super high-deductible catastrophic with HSA plan from my work, and then I pay $135/mo for my whole family for the DPC doctor (I could pay that $135 with my HSA and have it be on pretax money, but I'd rather invest my HSA pretax right now). The total there is less than any other insurance available to me. If I ever need anything, I just call or email my doc, most of the time we just do a (secure) video chat and I'm done and I don't need to make a trip in. If it is more severe, I can easily get a same-day appointment. He knows me, knows my history, and has an incentive to keep me healthy. The healthier I am, the more I pay him and don't see him.

I love the model!
> Are you implying that without an easier way to move wealth around criminals are just going to leave billions on the table?

That's what they did before that way to move wealth appeared.

And by the way, it didn't increase because bitcoin is easy to collect, but because it's easy to trace. Before bitcoin, the ransomware author would never actually decrypt the data after they were paid. That's the main difference that made the scam explode.

Anyway, yes, it's fruitless to argue people into not using bitcoin. It being the cause of something bad does not lead immediately to policy viability.
I think most countries with a civilized, social and sustainable healthcare system do this, right?

Maybe this is the kind of market that can never be free, because you can never step away from a deal, as the alternative is often death. As such perhaps in these matters we should just have some faith in humanity. You know, it works for a lot of open source software. Capitalism is not a silver bullet, people have a consciousness for a reason, use it, have faith in it. You will see that that is the exact thing that will make it flourish.

Btw, all "solutions" would piss me off as a doctor that just wants to help. The vast majority of people deserve and want to be trusted. We work better that way. What a cold piece.
Curious about your reasoning. I immediately wondered what type of cargo would be suitable for this sort of launch system. I came up with a fairly short list. Fuel/water/perhaps food for interplanetary spacecraft destined for Luna or Mars. I imagine one could design some types of cubesats to withstand the tremendous acceleration forces. That was about it.

Is your skepticism based on cargo suitability or other factors.
Not related to them in any way, but I have used Postmark in several (larger and smaller) projects and have always been very happy with them. They are not dubious at all, have reasonable pricing, good documentation, responsive support and are very open and honest about their operational status.
We've just added an applicability section, which explains a bit more what we do. We don't have any ELF specific heuristics [0].

https://github.com/elfshaker/elfshaker#applicability

In summary, for manyclangs, we compile with -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections, and store the resulting object files. These are fairly robust to insertions and deletions, since the addresses are section relative, so the damage of any addresses changing is contained within the sections. A somewhat surprising thing is that this works well enough when building many revisions of clang/llvm -- as you go from commit to commit, many commits have bit identical object files, even though the build system often wants to rebuild them because some input has changed.

elfshaker packs use a heuristic of sorting all unique objects by size, before concatenating them and storing them with zstandard. This gives us an amortized cost-per-commit of something like 40kiB after compression with zstandard.

[0] (edit: despite the playful name suggesting otherwise -- when we chose the name we planned to do more with ELF files, but it turned out to be unnecessary for our use case)
It appears the difference can be found in the depth of knowledge. A one-hot encoding, followed by an embedding, followed by some fully connected layers only takes the actual titles into account.

A GNN can take into account everything you know about movies, including incomplete data. Therefore a GNN will see that user A likes everything with actor X, user B really wants the genre to be Y, user C likes actor Z, but only before 2000, and combinations of that. Therefore the GNN can do better, hell, it can even predict what movie properties would do well, which would be tough to get out of the embedding network.

You could encode all this data in your embedding, but this will be a much smaller and much more flexible network.
Athletes from the USA. I like it.
> Oh, so because of (some) dumb users let's punish everyone by making them subject to a monopoly lock-in. Great reasoning.

In your reasoning, "most" users would be done and "most" apps would be malicious.

But in the end, it's quite simple - dealing with power use on mobile is hard and most developers don't care (same as they don't give a crap about making your web pages fast and slim). Users care about battery life above most of other features, including your freedom. They WILL got and buy a device that lasts the longer amount of time in the smallest and lightest package.

As long as these two things are true, leaving developers to run their polling code without restrictions has a massive effect on sales of both OEM devices and Android ecosystem as a whole. As such, OEMs are actively modifying Android to not allow this - see the wonderfully depressing https://dontkillmyapp.com/ - which is a significantly worse mess than you having to use a proprietary service to send a single device wakeup ping.
That’s a strange thing to say at a domain that’s all about founders, who are exactly taking leadership positions.

ETH price volatility with gas fees and auction costs is the reason.

Downvoters: It's true. Otherwise, they would already be celebrating that they have won the auction and covered all the fees.

Well I was quite surprised by this outcome and was actually expecting for them to win. [0] Looks like the problem always points to Ethereum (and its gas fees) which ruined it for them.

For the vast number of writers, direct monetization is a pipe dream in any format. The unfortunate thing is that too many people try to monetize and distract from their writing (or let the monetization actively pollute their writing) as a result.

ADDED: To be clear, I don't find anything wrong with some incidental affiliate links for things you like or doing reviews/write-ups of items you're given for free--so long as your reviews are honest and the fact that you received the item for free is disclosed. And nothing wrong with Patreon links either. My objection is to plastering ads all over the place and coloring your writing.
Blogging is just taking a nap, waiting for new frameworks and platforms to appear which re-enable it.
One factor that may be contributing to this, especially in the art world, is survivorship bias driven by higher male risk tolerances. Men have much more boom or bust outcomes in their lives and careers due to lower risk aversion.

What this could look like in the art world is a lower tendency than women towards a stable yet income-capped career like art teacher, and a higher tendency towards a risky yet unlimited potential path as an independent artist. A small fraction of independent artists become rich and famous, or even have a sustainable career, but you'll hear about the few that actually make it. In this scenario there may be more male success stories, but there will be an even greater number of failures.

I once went to a live podcast recording after having listened to the hosts for ~300hr without knowing what they looked like. It's hard to describe how uncanny it was. It was sort of like watching a movie with poorly dubbed dialogue.
