So you don't think it's critical for younger people to be less infections?

Having also less risk from the vaccine itself (which got injected into over 4 billion people) in comparison to COVID?

I disagree.

Lucky for me in this discussion, experts and politics are also now more inclined to have mandatory vaccination.

Mandatory vaccination exists in Germany for other things as well. I totally think it is reasonable.
Same. I don't even know my password, but I know that I have the correct one because I use a password manager.
If you are in Europe, and at least for email, it is regulated.

The GDPR's Right to Data Portability means that a company is obligated to give you access to your personal data - they are within their right not to have you as a customer anymore, but they must give you at least a copy of whatever data they already have.

Of course, you'll probably have to jump some hoops to prove that you are you, but IMHO that's a reasonable compromise.
The Weird Story Behind the Origin of the Rickroll (2018)
This is ridiculous. ARM was already pretty much well-settled-in in the PDA way before the smartphone, so it definitely didn't "single-handedly made it happen". And during the early PDA era, when they got settled in that market, it most certainly did not win due to "low power draw". Back in the day where SH(-3) PDAs where still a thing, the battery life was measured in days out of 2 AAA cells (even for ARM devices). That was destroyed due to forced backlight usage in most screen techs rather than any change in ISA.

Today MIPS is still used in network devices, SH is still used in things like optical drives, SPARC is still used on some servers, x86 is still used on many servers and desktops and mobile devices, and so on and so forth. Do you think that there is something technical that warrants the choice of these architectures for their usecases ? Do you think that there is something in SH that makes it a better ISA particularly for CD-ROM drives ? Or that there is something in SH that made it a better ISA for some videogame console generations, then something changed and the better ISA was PPC, then ARM, then x86 again ?

It's mostly arbitrary marketing decisions, which manufacturer happened to be doing well that day, and some "historical reasons"/network effects which define these choices. There's very little difference at this ISA/architectural level, and a lot in the actual design and manufacturing level, where ARM is not doing poorly but hardly shines. Apple, Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, even nVidia all do better than ARM there.

If we the wind had blown even slightly differently some day 20 years ago, we may very well be using anything else, even say Itanium in our smartphones. And before you complain that Itanium/EPIC are hardly suited for low power, remember that Transmeta made their money selling _low-power_ VLIW processors emulating x86 instructions. And actually they were lower power than their x86 competition those days. Perhaps Torvalds would still be there rather than making Linux...
That exists — it’s called a “manager” and comes with command-and-control functionality too!
A conflict lasting 80 years with a number of casualties less than 1% of either populations can not be called a “genocide” in any good faith.
Simply, a lot of software that makes people's lives easier wouldn't exist without Electron. So yes, Electron is good.

The same amount of effort spent in Electron wouldn't get you a better native app. It would more likely get you no app.
It needs to be significantly cheaper than current monitors to make business sense.

Remember, it's not about the objective value of the device. It's the perceived value that matters.
Mitre doesn't tag every program written in C with the C tag.

A few bugs in std happened, but they're also mostly in edge-case situations that in C/C++ would be either straight-up UB or "you're bad for even trying this", like integer overflow, throwing an exception from a destructor, or implementing operator overloading that gives randomized results.
This is a very popular and quite detailed pop science book on sleep written by a prof of neuroscience: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/34466963-why-we-sleep
In practice what that sounds like is well to do jerks in their nice suburbs and gated communities will be free to drunkenly rearrange their driveway (for whatever benign reason, to get the lawnmower out of the garage or something) and that people in "bad" areas where there is little political power and the .gov is more or less free to abuse them at will will found guilty and be given an option to not be found guilty if they pay into the system some other way (fine and/or driving school is the usual mechanism).

Basically it will just become a side channel for revenue just like everything else about drunk driving already is.
If you refuse to give blood or breath sample you automatically lose license. Also there are presumptions of intoxication after your first impaired driving conviction in NYS ( it’s not that simple, but too complicated to outline in short form ). So, this wouldn’t really be unprecedented. Not saying I agree or disagree.

The stakes are very high with impaired driving. In many states your first impaired driving charge can be felonious even if there is no injury or accident. In about half of all states your second impaired driving is automatically a felony despite no injury or accident. Society has a right to protect its roadways. However, we also need to be very careful about wanton criminalization. The penal system in the USA is backwards and barbaric

>> I would be very impressed with any code

And I would argue that _lots_ of the code in today's shipping products (which I listed, and others) use lots of code laid down more than 20 years ago.

Sure there's lots more in Linux now, but lots of the code is also basically unchanged from 20 years ago. It's not like GREP gets a complete rewrite every 5 years...

I'm not saying that I'd be up for using a Linux install from 20 years ago, but hey "any code" is a lot more than "complete install".
Yes you can. There are all kinds of regulations. Many entities are held to high standards. They're exposed to liability.

The 'free' era of the internet has been enabled by excessive liability shields granted to shareholders that are collectively worth trillions of dollars, and those riches have been built around callous disregard for the property and rights of billions of people worldwide.

That being said, with Gmail, you get what you pay for. With Google's paid for hosted email, you don't get what you pay for either. It's not a good provider if you ever have any issues with it that cannot be solved by their automated processes.

Specifically because it communicates belonging ("fit") and facilitates status plays.

Worst case it's meaningless filler - the equivalent of looking busy while doing nothing. Best case someone important may be impressed.

It's important to remember the downside is on not bullshitting and sticking to facts and metrics. In many orgs, neither will win friends and influence people.
Just so you know, I'm fine with calling "arm" what is between shoulder and wrist.

I was just annoyed that GP seemed to diminish OP's efforts in building their page by nitpicking chosen lengths and terms, and I chose to enter the game rather than nothing.

Your comments are welcome and informative, thank you for that.
Dictionaries are descriptive and not normative, which confirms the common use of arm as "wrist to shoulder".
Backup codes are a way to bypass the 2nd step, so what works that even mean?
It's not unknown, all the groups publish their methodology in the open.

I'm now convinced you just want to be a contrarian, rather than learning about a system you don't understand.
Isn't that the exact opposite?

You're trying to pull the "carbon footprint" nonsense on those politicians, while they do the only thing that will actually help (introduce global legislation).

Most people that harp on about this seem to be climate change deniers as otherwise the "hypocrisy" doesn't really exist.

It's about as hypocritical as driving a car with leaded gasoline to a vote to phase out leaded gasoline. Voting on the regulation is infinitely more impactful, both for or against, than any private car usage avoided.

In my early years I worked at a airline commerce redesign with people from Amadeus (migrating from their e-retail to WDS, great team). It was an awesome experience, as the channel had still a low penetration (2% of sales) on the airline overall sales and the team left lot of the product ownership on my hands (an external consultant). I remember playing a lot with the search features including allowing pax to:

- Search for a date and no destination to get the best deals for that range

- Search for a destination but no date and get a month matrix with the best rates to travel to that destination.

Of course they were barely used by paxs, but I liked very much to leave these kind of easter eggs for more advanced users.

> Passworded sudo is just another roadblock to give you more time.

The problem with this world-view is that it's a fallacy. You're assuming that people won't be bothered by having to re-type their password all the time, and just implement a "secure" script using a setuid bit instead.

Now someone else intentionally adds the ability to allow that script to execute arbitrary commands and you've got a vulnerability with passworded sudo that would have never happened with passwordless sudo.

I've seen that same story happen countless times in the real world. E.g. a company I worked for went from a "bastion" login system (authenticate once) for the sysadmin "run a command on the fleet" interface of last resort to requiring "re-authentication on login", which now needed a re-login with a OTP for each machine, in a datacenter with quite a few machines.

That's conceptually the same as insisting on passworded sudo in terms of security. Guess what happened next in that setup? No points for "sysadmins just got used to re-typing their passwords in the for-loop" :)

It lets you choose a bi-monthly schedule for the exports, then you just need to automate the download from the link that you get emailed.
It's not just Windows - the whole commercial OS system market is going to shit.

Operating systems are now treated as nothing more than a gateway to online services. Many commercial operating systems now require Internet access to obtain a working installation and some require an online account for things like creating a user account or adding applications. And then there are things like forced telemetry and forced system updates.

I personally don't like any of this.
I'm not sure that's true. They don't reveal separate numbers for GCP, but they put it under "Google Cloud" umbrella with Google Docs and other products. The revenues are growing, but they're still losing money: https://www.crn.com/news/cloud/alphabet-earnings-google-clou...
The number of instances of people violating DUI law in order to move vehicles around private property probably or other similarly benign cases outnumber real drunk driving 100:1.

Furthermore, the habitual drunks who actually pose a danger to public health are already playing the "drive a $1k car registered in someone else's name without a license" game so this won't affect them for ~20yr even if it's implemented tomorrow and based on the legislation it looks like it'll be years before anything actually gets implemented in new cars.
No API but you could script the browser. Obviously would break if the UI changes. Quick google shows some potentially still-relevant posts: https://superuser.com/q/716756
> But the truth is that if you can build a CPU that fetches an infinite number of instructions per cycle, your biggest bottleneck isn't going to be the number of instructions, it's going to be unpredicted branches

Note that: Within Superscalar processors a group of instructions that are decoded at the same cycle is called a decoding group.

Branching is a problem, but the branch predictors do an excellent job. (especially for function calls which are very well predicted by the RAS [Return Address Stack])
But the biggest bottleneck to fetch a large instruction group is decoding.

Especially the instruction size decoding. An ISA like RISC-V or ARM that drastically reduces the possible instruction sizes is a big advantage to decode large instruction groups.

And dependencies between instructions within the decoding group is also a concern.
For example, register renaming will quickly require several cycles (several stages) when the decoding group scales up.
RISC-V also addresses this since the register indexes are easily decoded earlier and the number of registers used can also be quickly decoded.

And you're right, these are topics that are rarely addressed by RISC-V detractors.

You may just want to lay an EPD tablet on the original screen and link the two. Check:

https://www.mobileread.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmenti...

Issues? Yes. HDMI does not allow for the touchscreen, and you may want that. And the hardware system must optimize battery life, which can be awful on the HDMI connection.

What you really want is an optimized data connection and screen mirroring to the tablet.

Or, an EPD tablet with the ability to use more than Android...

By that logic, antivirus on my employer's laptop is malware too? Assuming I don't care for it being installed and sometimes am mildly annoyed when it hogs the CPU every now and then.
I completely agree with you on this.

But again, my comment wasn't about this system, but drunk driving in general.

I acknowledge that situations exist where drunk driving is the only option (like with the flood/tornado/vulcano examples mentioned in other posts). But for most scenarios there is often a better solution that doesn't involve drunk driving.

In Flutter App Dev How to Know When and What to Build
My first job ever was doing new home wiring…learned a lot that has affected the way I approach engineering.

The company standard was that all plate screws were left vertical, no exception. The master electrician and managers absolutely checked.

I’ve long appreciated that level of attention to detail and now it drives my wife nuts when she puts a plate in something and I go back and tweak it.

Meanwhile they let 14 year old me drive around between job sites to deliver pets but that’s another story :).
Well one big difference is that neither Google nor Apple enjoy a de-facto monopoly the way Microsoft does on the Desktop. Of course, where one draws the line on that sort of thing is pretty arbitrary.

Personally I've played devil's advocate for Google and Apple mostly because the reasoning I see for forcing them to open their platforms seems post-hoc. For instance many assert that phones need to be open but, for some reason, game consoles do not. People seemingly deciding what they want and then twisting their reasoning until it fits.
I'm wondering if aiming for less than 1G of artificial gravity would be sufficient to counter the ill effects of zero gravity environments? If you could opt for, say 0.3g, then the required speed would be greatly reduced.
I might try to narrate one, it'll be interesting.
For competitive performance in 2021 with CPUs that can be used at performance levels at least as high as those required for mobile phones, it is necessary to decode simultaneously at least 8 instructions per clock cycle (actually more for RISC-V, because its instructions do less than those of other CPUs).

The cost in area and power of a decoder for variable-length instructions increases faster with the number of simultaneously-decoded instructions than the cost of a decoder for fixed-length instructions.

This makes the compressed instruction encoding incompatible with high-performance RISC V CPUs.

For the lower performance required in microcontrollers, the compressed encoding is certainly needed for adequate code density.

The goals of minimum code size and of maximum execution speed are contradictory and the right compromise is different for an embedded computer and for a personal computer.

That is why ARM has different ISAs for the 2 domains and why also RISC-V designs must use different sets of extensions, depending on the application intended for them.

They use those things for some very specific math-heavy transforms and rendering - still all Javascript for the UI. I’ve used WASM for some ffmpeg-in-browser stuff too.

The belief in WASM as a method to build client-facing software is an amusing self own. There is literally no production examples because it is not production ready for dom-heavy stuff.

I peddle in this trade. Honestly, most of corporate America speaks in bullshit. So I use bullshit to sell them things they don’t need, then more bullshit to convince them it was a resounding success. It pretty much works every time until you get a super-demanding client, at which point I fire them as a client and move on to easier targets.

Why shouldn’t I go in and get mine? We’ve built an economy that prizes looking competent over actual competency, and I’m just taking advantage of that. I have zero loyalty to the demons in the money pit, and in fact ripping them off is an existential coping strategy in many ways. That the system rewards this behavior is basically the point.

All I’m doing is making America work for me. This attitude is becoming pretty prevalent; I’ve started dubbing it corpo-punk since it’s a bunch of white collar workers causing chaos through deliberate incompetence and bad-faith efforts in corporate America.

The problem with waiting 1-2 seconds between requests is that if you’re trying to scrape on the scale of millions of pages, the difference between 30 parallel requests / sec and a single request every 1-2 seconds is the difference between a process that takes 9 hours and a month.

So I think there’s a balance to be struck - I’d argue you should absolutely be thoughtful about your target - if they notice you or you break them, that could be problematic for both of you. But if you’re TOO conservative, the job will never get done in a reasonable timeframe.
I don't think Ruja / Buterin are the same. But I do believe there was a point when Ruja believed that she could actually create a currency. Once she invited MLM grifters to peddle something they didn't understand and were hugely successful in it, it became an opportunity to continue the grift. The parallel is that both started something that has become too big to fail in the eyes of the founders. Ruja is 100x the grifter that Buterin is but both used an approach where they have been promising something for so long that it's hard to walk back on that "promise". That type of personality is very common in Tech I think

> I am aware that there are some situations where there is no other option than driving yourself. But trying to justify the ability to drive intoxicated, just for that once-in-a-lifetime emergency seems selfish to me.

I did try to explain that, obviously, some situations exist where you have no other option. A sudden flood after a night of drinking, and nobody else is sober to drive, then yes, I'd do the same.

My point was that whenever a topic about drunk driving comes up, many people will instantly jump to the "but what about an emergency!?" scenario. All I was trying to explain is that there often (but not always) is a better option than drunk driving.
