I can't use source graph to search a public repo I work on without granting them read access to every private repo I have. Attempting to deny just that permission causes it to error out.

So I'll summarize that no, you can not do that on source graph, given that doing so would require everybody violating their ndas.

>"megathrust" earthquakes on the west coast every 400-600 years.

...there are the full-fault (M9) and partial-fault quakes (M8) , and the smaller ones happen more frequently:

https://projects.oregonlive.com/maps/earthquakes/timeline

>The Cascadia Subduction Zone has not produced an earthquake since 1700 and is building up pressure where the Juan de Fuca Plate is subsiding underneath the North American plate. Currently, scientists are predicting that there is about a 37 percent chance that a megathrust earthquake of 7.1+ magnitude in this fault zone will occur in the next 50 years.

Well, it's your body, do what you want... but don't smoke around me. And don't infect me. Your freedom to choose should not extend to imposing consequences on me.

For that matter, it's your body, but a fetus isn't your body.
Article isn't interesting but I checked out the site and whoever wrote https://usefathom.com/high-traffic doesn't know what they're talking about.

Lambda isn't infinitely scalable, it's literally finitely bounded by the number of concurrent executions (which has an unpublished hard limit). You could definitely hit this with smthn like page views.

Also, the copy brags about SQS FIFO, but FIFO queues are much less scalable than regular queues. They are limited to 20k inflight and 300 TPS for WriteMessage.
Both failure to vaccinate as well as smoking causes direct and proximate damage to those around you.

Say what you will about bodily autonomy, but there isn't a double standard. The right to swing your fist, et c.

Abortion doesn't count under this scheme because of the postulate that a fetus is not a human being yet.
You are describing tissues which work under tension. This article is talking about articular cartilage which works under compression. As such this looks like an alternative bearing surface / native bearing surface augment candidate.
But how corrupt could it possibly be? The comments are comments are comparing US infrastructure cost with Turkey's. Is the US (or Quebec for than matter) really orders of magnitude more corrupt than Turkey since its infrastructure costs orders of magnitude more?
I've relied on it to keep me on the road in low visibility, which admittedly may not have been entirely wise.
I don’t need to. You are the one who quoted it without justification. Feel free to justify yourself.

Of course by now we can see multiple people in the comments who think you aren’t applying it properly.

As far as I can see you are just using a call for metrics as a lazy dismissal.
That sucks. Might be worth calling the city again to alert them to the incomplete remediation. Might not do anything, but it can't hurt.
What about vaping?
Yes! It's practically my bible now -- I even printed a copy through printme1.com so I can have a bound copy to flip back and forth through ( and dog-ear, tag pages, etc.) I reference other implementations and z-tools to gain insight on changes in memory, objects, etc.

I'm writing blog posts on my journey - detailing each instruction and any nuance with each one, as well as the object structure, z-text and misc. I hope to post it here one day.

A 'go bag' containing enough food to survive months would be rather unwieldy to carry around. Hopefully it survives the initial earthquake in an accessible location so permit bugging out. However, its not much use if the house has collapsed or you're stuck at work.
Very fun indeed and easier than a sockets-based impl that covers all versions. I'm only doing v3 so far and it's a long haul!
Congrats on this!
If you break consciousness down to its most basic element, qualia, I think it's plausible that even very simple systems might be conscious. Not conscious in the way humans or animals are conscious though. Perhaps consciousness is just something that is inherent to information states. The simplest form of consciousness might exist in a switch with an on/off position. If consciousness is indeed innate to information states, then it feels like something to be on or off. There is nothing the switch can do with this information, it's incapable of doing anything. All it can be is on or off. The switch isn't sentient, it just has a subjective experience of on or off.
I think you're right that the biggest technical reason is local storage. But I disagree about the difficulty of streaming. When properly implemented it comes with the huge advantage of drastically reducing install/patch/load times as well. Engine developers have been lazy and allowed install/patch/load times to get totally out of control. I think the game industry has been ignoring the huge benefit that reducing those times would bring them even on traditional platforms.
> Customers get a week to upgrade under strict embargo

Seems that they can enforce an embargo with their private customers so that it won't become a 0day.

It became a 0day because the security researcher inadvertently kicked off public discussion.
I don’t detect any curiosity as to whether this is an outright fleecing of investors or a vehicle for money laundering. Massive gain for the hedgies with only weird risk, kickback time with free money there. And handing Trump + Nunes vast sums with no obvious business to consume it looks like a tailor-made vehicle to just shift it to related parties for “fees”, “licensing”, “consulting”, load it up with debt, and push it off the cliff. As investment capital, the funds don’t need to be repaid.

Even worse, you could probably launder money through it and end up with capital losses to offset your taxes elsewhere to boot.

At least WeWork had cachet as it roasted chestnuts on a money pyre.

Section 2.1.1 talks about fixed stack sizes though, so you only get to do 1 allocation, and in general it is not possible to precisely compute the necessary transitive stack size given a function due to recursion/indirect calls.

Stackless coroutines do not have this requirement, it is enough to be able to know the required frame size locally, without considering recursion/indirection. And fallback heap allocations are not surprising since we do not statically know the required frame size at the call site. Segmented stacks have their own tradeoffs too, checking if you have enough stack space at every function entry is not cheap.
They could've used cheap GPS or cellular A-GPS devices with SIM cards to report the location of the vehicles as well. Also cheap, also easy.

(It's a little unfair to blame AirTags for this)
Can we avoid this somehow? Dang massive disappointment
I'm not quite sure if I'm addressing your question; I am not as familiar with
PowerShell as I am with various unix-like command shells.

But an example that springs to mind for me is "Get-ChildItem".

Two default aliases for this PowerShell command are `ls` and `dir`.

PowerShell seems to build upon data structures, can pass these around much in the same way that is done in the REPL of an interpreter.

Unix shells lean on the file system for that: if you want to "really" pass around data structures, you pass the name of associated file handles, as defined in the namespace of the virtual file system (VFS).

It turn out that the unix way is usually quite sufficient for interactive sessions. Remarkably so.

But I can write PowerShell functions that do type checking. I can sign PowerShell files with a certificate that implements a security policy...

Stuff like that can be done by a Unix shell and VFS in 2021, but the complexity trade-offs start to favor programming environments with a typed call stack.
Skimmed over this... nice write up so far! Notes:

* Would be nice to have a TOC for such a long article.

* I never implemented a register based VM but I think I remember one of the trickiest things is to allocate the registers when compiling from a higher level language [1], which I don't think is mentioned in the article? I think the article doesn't concern with this since the sample program just uses the bytecode directly.

* Random: been thinking of a DSL that would be able to express a VM logic without having to deal with all the micro details of C... Just found a few academic papers on a quick search investigating the idea, fwiw. [2] [3]

I know a fair number of Americans who are over 50 years old, and appear fairly intelligent - but who, a while after each election, seem actually surprised and offended that the recently-elected politicians are not energetically living up to their campaign promises of squeaky-clean ethics, plentiful jobs, open & responsible government, etc.

Do corporations have so much better a record of living up to feel-good marketing & PR, that a experienced and competent adult would actually take them at their word?
Hey, how come nobody has used webkit instead of chrome as the basis for an alternate browser.
Everything you are talking about is useful for full-text search. It's practically pointless for code search. Trigrams definitely help for regex, you can make use of a trigram index for a quick false positive index lookup.

Code and log search are two specialized use-cases of search that definitely warrant a non-full-text approach and as far as I am aware the trigram bitmap index would be considered state of the art for both.

That isn't to say you can't solve the problem with a full-text search engine, many people do with the solutions you alluded to. However they are drastically less efficient and probably out of the question at Githubs scale.
Fortunately, it just needs to get me east of I5, right?
Except that if you get vaccinated, why does it matter if hypothetically I am not vaccinated? True story, I got Moderna, three months later I got Covid along with a group of my friends all vaccinated with either Moderna or J&J. Anyway, don't want this to diverge into a covid shitshow argument. The problem is that the US government is trying to mandate if you don't get vaccinated then you lose your job. That's an issue for me.
That's a fair point. However, that doesn't change the situation, that merely highlights the severity of the problem, IMHO.
depends on what it is you are doing. college is about a lot more than becoming a programmer.
Such a bummer. Alexa played a key role in triggering my interest in programming and understanding data. I remember in 2007ish a relative showing me his blog with great pride that his blog was ranking in the top 20,000. It was amazing to me because if you search some specific terms on google and click next page enough times you can actually come across his website.
Lots of questionable assertions in this very speculative article.

"According to general relativity, every gravitational wave should leave an indelible imprint on the structure of space-time...."

All kinds of possibilities can be found in equations. The derivation of possibilities is no guarantee that they correspond with physical realities.

An earthquake leaves an undelible imprint on some matter in space-time. Different thing. The presence of stars is said to 'warp' space-time. Never saw a suggestion that the warp is permanent. Do stars orbiting a galactic center 'permanently warp' the space-time they pass through?

"How, exactly, will a passing wave distort space-time? The possibilities are literally infinite, and, puzzlingly, these possibilities are also equivalent to one another...."

Literally infinite? Colorful language, no math, no hint of why the possibilities are non-zero.

"While detecting the memory effect caused by a single gravitational wave is infeasible with current technology...."

Maybe so much speculative fiction based on no empirical evidence is no fit way to conduct science.
Also, how come Swift has not taken off outside of Apple?
They're preventing citizens from publishing that info, not looking around and measuring from what I found.

Imagine a country that prevents its citizens from recording a song they hear and sharing it with their friends. Oh, wait, US more or less does that and forces other countries to implement policies that prevent it or they will ban trade with those countries.
There's something to be said from being able to boot from a read-only medium.

An Eventful Instant – Gnome Shell and Mutter
I intentionally emphasized the fact that Samsung is the largest smartphone maker and that more than 200 suppliers moved along with the company to make that transition (and 20+ new domestic suppliers). While Apple surpassed Samsung's revenue in recent years, the depth and scale of Samsung's manufacturing are much greater -- not only b/c they make so many different and high volume products, but they also compete with many suppliers in their supply-chain.

I always cringed at Tim Apple's deceptive rambling on the industry's dependence and necessity of supply-chain in China and feared that he was cooking up something more sinister behind the curtain. I recall as far back as 2012 when Tim defended their oversea outsourcing practices on CBS by claiming that "Apple iPhone engines were made in America," even as they were working to offshore that to TSMC in Taiwan shortly afterward.
we need a new Alexa, and on top of that, one that does the same for mobile apps and doesn't keep it behind a walled garden (looking at you appsumo).
The republicans are happy to spend money on infrastructure where their constituents are. Of course they hate rail transit because it benefits blue cities. Look at what state and local republicans actually do and not what people say for effect.

I'm kind of inclined to agree that federal infrastructure spending is shit. The fed takes a bunch of money then gives it back with strings. The states should just be keeping that money and spending it as they see fit. This isn't exactly an uncommon opinion either.
if you do not understand pointers and cannot work with them, you probably should not be a software engineer.
I’m a Chinese. I’m glad that apple did this.

While I want apple to keep its dignity as much as you do, I cannot change our government (we don’t get to vote, so we literally cannot). Given this situation, if apple don’t do these kind of things, worse case scenario, it get banned in china just like google and many others. As a user, apple products are still the most privacy protecting products I can buy and use in china. (For example, do you know that Chinese government forbids end to end encryption? But iMessage is an exception). Business aside, I think apple protected the human rights in china the best way it could.

I agree with most of what you wrote, but regarding Tim Cook working for a wage, most of his wealth has in fact come from Apple stock. He just received 5 million shares. His $15M non stock compensation is a lot of money for most but I wouldn’t classify him as being purely out for his own wealth.

Calling it an OS is a bit generous—although XNU is open-source, actually getting it running on hardware from just the publicly released parts is not particularly feasible. PureDarwin exists, but it's mostly just a curiosity to run in QEMU at this point.

i’ve looked at it briefly. i do not need or want it, and that is fine. what is important, is to keep the kernel tree simple and understandable. that means minimizing the number of tools and languages involved. which means not introducing rust.
I figured that, but if their marketing references Boston Dynamics, like the headline of the submission did before dang changed it, I can see an argument that says that a layman might assume this project and Boston Dynamics are related in some way.

The problem is, it's not a numbers game: quality matters a lot.

Importing massive amounts of unskilled labor only depresses wages and, combined with NIMBY, creates a massive housing bubble thanks to artificial shortages.

In Australia's case, it also suffers from a disproportionate brain drain of highly educated professionals since local firms simply won't compete for talent.

Furthermore, this has already come up in the past for Apple:

When pressed about the financial prudence of prioritizing environmental outcomes Tim Cook snapped: "When we work on making our devices accessible by the blind, I don't consider the bloody ROI." It was also not limited to accessibility, but applicable to many areas Apple desires to lead.

The conclusion is that Apple is explicitly not interested in prioritizing individual liberty.

I unfortunately cannot read past the first few sentences due to the paywall, but the opening line says this:

-> Suppose you could buy a share of Tesla Inc. and send it to a friend in Shanghai as easily as sending an email. Or imagine placing a bet on the inflation rate at the end of President Joe Biden’s term, which would pay off in bitcoin if you were right.

Couldn’t we already do this with traditional technology? Why on earth would this have to be on a blockchain to work?

The reason we can’t do this currently is due to laws & regulations (which developed over decades to mollify various issues that arose in markets) - not because of the tech.

It seems that blockchain in this sense is simply trying to erase decades of laws and regulations and paint itself as “different”. Solving human issues (eg laws), requires human solutions, not pseudo-technological ideas.

Unless I’m mistaken, I’m always open to hearing the opposing viewpoint on why it’s necessary to use blockchain for this and impossible to use current technology. I just don’t seem to see why
