The only reason "ip issues" exist is because an employer says so, and they can say otherwise at any time.

If the customer wants something, then you the vendor either give them what they want, or don't.

It's no one else's problem.

There are no "ip issues" preventing an employee from working on a competing product, only from doing so without permission which the employer is free to grant at any time.

This possible issue does not provide any tiniest bit of of excuse, and does not invalidate the critiques at all.

No one is "caught in the middle" in any way that anyone else has any obligation to care about, not even a merely "being a nice and considerate person" obligation.

If the customer wants something, the vendor can absolutely satisfy them any time they want by a number of different means. And certainly this employee is no voiceless intern, is both knowledgeable and empowered enough to inform his employer about those means. If they don't employ any of those means, it's no one else's fault and so no one else's problem.

Position-dependent code can be copied in _physical_ memory as long as the _virtual_ addresses (which is what you observe) don't change.

So yes, the mechanism you posit exists, and its the virtual memory manager.
The thing about it is that things are never all good or all bad. Everything is relative or has a frame of reference to it. If you try and you have good coping skills that are well exercised, you find the things that keep you going.

An example, there is a lot of injustice in life and world hunger and crime or whatever, and if we took it all at once it would be horrible. But we can look around the room, or at stable relationships we have in life, and find joy and things we appreciate. In a global sense things can suck for this and that reason. But there are other frames of reference that are good, joyful, give us hope.

If you are depressed, the lack of appropriate coping keeps you stuck in the frame of reference where everything is bad, and you don't find a way out of it, it becomes self re-enforcing.

There is even a thing called psychotic depression (feel free to Google that) where this depressed state makes you delusional and when you find evidence that things are all right you reject it, and you invent false reality where things are worse than they are.
Forget the nonsense words for a second, if someone showed up offering you an "investment" that could double your money overnight, you ALREADY know it is a scam.

Apple's EULA explicitly allows you to replace the open source components of the OS with your own. One such open source component is the XNU kernel itself. This is what allows Asahi Linux to exist not just technically, but also in full compliance with Apple's EULA.
> …when everything looks the same it is hard to tell things apart

This is so true. And it happens on both sides of the complexity.

In forth, it all looks the same because the basic philosophy is “here’s a molding machine, make your own lego.” You end up having to rebuild constantly to construct what was constructed what in what was constructed on what was constructed.

In syntax heavy languages you end up with lots of contextual overloading so you have to parse the environs of a token to figure what it’s actually for (e.g. []’s in Swift, is it a subscript operator of various kinds, an array, or a dictionary??).

I think there’s a sort of sweet spot of making enough generally usable and quickly recognizable pieces, but keeping the set in a bag of generally useful pieces. And to top it off, it’s nice when the elements have a sort of harmony/consistency.
you need to prove god first (but it would help if it was clearly defined first).

But the "teachings" basically boil down to "treat others how you would like to be treated. There is nothing god like in that... its pure evolutionary pragmatism.
> He probably felt that flying in mountains on 1942 piece of crap...

Then the right answer is not take the trip in that airplane.

General aviation is pretty timeless, as far as vehicles go. If an airplane has regular annual inspections, decent maintenance as required, and a proven record of "not being a consistent pain in the ass," then it's likely to be quite reliable. I've flown stuff from the 60s and 70s, far older than I am, and I don't think twice about it. I do think about the general condition of the airplane and the maintenance trends I've seen, but age of the airframe just isn't a concern if it's still airworthy. If it were a "piece of crap," then it's not being maintained to something resembling airworthy. There are some out there, but they're rare.

And then, if you don't think it's the right plane for the trip, don't take that trip in that plane. Find a different route. Again, this is part of what you're supposed to learn in the process of getting your pilot's license. In general aviation, there are places you can't be, and there are places you shouldn't be - not in terms of "legal to be there," but in terms of "stupid to be there."

It varies from person to person, but a single engine, piston powered GA aircraft can't do an awful lot of things people would like to do with them. Or, at least, can't do it consistently. I personally think night single engine IFR is insane without a turbine up front and anti-icing equipment, though I've known people who do it. There are plenty of weather conditions you shouldn't fly in, and there are places you simply shouldn't be - downwind of a mountain ridge on a windy day is one of those places where the air will simply rip small airplanes out of the sky and dash them against the rocks. You can climb at 500 fpm up there? Cute, the descending air is doing 4000 fpm. On the flip side, if you're on the upwind side, you can get a nice boost from the rising air and, from what I hear, can damned near soar a Cessna on ridge lift in good conditions.

I'll tend to follow the valley, though, if I can find a route that goes where I'm going, and tend to skip as many ridge crossings as I can. It adds some time, yes, but I prefer to have an awful lot of big flat area under me in case the engine does go quiet.

If you're so concerned about flying in the mountains in a 1942 airplane, though, the right answer isn't to take a parachute and a studio worth of cameras. It's to re-evaluate the trip you're about to take and find a solution you're comfortable with.
Maybe there is a solar flare incident that causes it, but as it relates to a cyber or EMP attack destabilizing a country into cannibalistic chaos - it isn't really in anyones interest, as most strategic policymakers understand that you get something much worse than the devil you know when you do. Even destabilizing so-called "minor" powers like Iraq, Libya, and Syria created international terror cells and radicalized sympathetic groups on every continent. It's a recipe for hell.

If an attack took out the whole US grid in an irrepairable way, the power vacuum would cause huge wars around the globe, and it would cost the aggressor at least a couple of major cities from a nuclear strike response. It would also cause mass casulties from refugee inflows taking advantage of the chaos. There would be so much death it's just statistics at that point - it's just not a rational decision for an aggressor country to cause an EMP or to leverage it. Imagine trying to occupy a country that had been EMP'd? It would be like 100 Afghanistans and a thousand Vietnams, just in America. In that total failure situation, everyone is going to die of starvation or infection and disease, so responding with violence at that stage to mitigate it is a relative mercy.

Understanding those consequences of destroying civiliztion, if I were a national leader, I wouldn't hesitate to order that counter strike, and I am sure the actual leaders apprehend that logic as well. If there were a question of attribution, the first one to move against our allies would have to lose their capitol. Aggressors only understand costs, and failure to impose them is an invitation . This Mutually Assured Destruction is the worst, but only guarantee against an EMP attack.

If it were a solar event, nations would still have to protect allies militarily, and I don't see anyone benefiting from the chaos enough to let it sustain, especially when the rational actors will escalate apocalyptic violence until some order is restored. Grim thoughts, but oddly hopeful because I think if people understand the inevitable horrific alternatives to keeping it together, we will have ample incentive to do so.

It seems as if the only thing I get when I buy an NFT is the ability to prove that I did pay money for that NFT for a specific seller.

But because anybody else can sell anybody else very similar NFTs it looks like the supply is infinite.

The only differentiator then is who is the seller, right? But how can the value of a thing be different based on who sells it?

No plane can take full cargo and fuel. They may have already known they would need to refuel enroute. The article reads:

Of course, these delays are coming right in the thick of the holiday season.

Hey! I didn't under go SAINT TMS specifically, but I have undergone TMS therapy. Reading this article I'm not sure how different what I received actually is compared to SAINT, but TMS absolutely changed my life.

Many of the benefits the patients in this article discuss are ones I received as well. I really do suggest it to anyone who is able to access it and suffers with severe depression.

At least one additional step which is required on some architectures is you must flush the data cache and invalidate the instruction cache at the location of the new code.

Dynamically loading code is indistinguishable from self-modifying code, and each architecture has special steps you must take in order for it to work.

In Postgres land, I think most businesses work around temporal tables with audit tables using triggers to dump jsonb or hstore. I wrote up how I used table-inheritance here [1].

I agree with your point. Postgres is starting to stick out compared to alternatives:

- MS SQL supports uni-temporal tables using system time.

- Snowflake has time travel which acts like temporal tables but with a limited retention window. Seems more like a restore mechanism.

- MariaDB has system-versioned tables (doesn't look like it's in MySQL).

- Cockroach DB has uni-temporal support with system time but limited to the garbage collection period. The docs indicate you don't want a long garbage collection period since all versions are stored in a single range.

- Oracle seems to have the best temporal support with their flashback tech. But it's hard to read between the lines to figure out what it actually does.

One thing that always strikes me is that a lot of the "function arguments" mess is because destructuring/deserializing is slow.

If structuring/serializing were fast, a lot of the "data sharing" issues go out the window as you could copy everything.

Your function arguments instead become "I want a named dict/hash/struct. It should have these named members with these types. Any missing members get these defaults. If any members are still missing, please complain."

Postgresql is also well supported as a managed offering for PAAS offerings as well.

Heroku has https://www.heroku.com/postgres

Fly.io - https://fly.io/docs/reference/postgres/

and lots more of these pretty small players - that still drive adoption.

Then it's very well support on AWS / GCP / Azure

So postgresql is just crushing it in terms of adoption.

I honestly have not seen major Oracle offering in a bit.

Looking at what tech companies are building on is oracle a major player these days. They used to be THE pretty much only player - those days feel gone by now.
Chromebooks have a different threat model; they give up once an attacker has physical access. M1s do not; their security model covers the case of preventing an attacker from installing a backdoor on a machine using physical access. That's why Chromebooks have the screw; once you have the machine in front of you, sure, go ahead and install your own firmware. They can afford that in their threat model.

We in security like to throw around that "once the attacker has physical access it's game over", but that isn't true in practice, as evidenced by the success of locked platforms like iPhones. You can be secure against physical access, at least assuming your attacker can't decapsulate your CPU, rewire it with a FIB workstation, and recapsulate it. Apple's security model aims for this, while still allowing the user to install their own OS.

I’m not sure what timeframe to put on it.. i feel we usually are too optimistic of what happens in 5 years but then we grossly underestimate what happens in 10 years. The history of the sequencing of the whole human genome comes to mind but I can’t remember the exact facts and timeframes.
It's true that there's currently some regulatory arbitrage, but it's more than that. Our financial systems and products have been slow to change and have unnecessary friction and rent-seeking.

I think you hit the real point that the VCs gloss over and rationalize as “users don’t know they want it”:

> most internet users don't care about decentralization in the slightest.

Users do care about privacy and (shared?) ownership, but as long as those needs are catered in a “fair” way, decentralization doesn’t matter, esp to non-tech folks.

Now decentralization might be a way to force better fair behavior, but only if you know how to manage the tech. Also, 51% in PoW still makes it not really decentralized, nor is PoS.

Having gone down a similar path about a decade ago, let me short circuit this for you.

The consensus seems to be that technical analysis doesn't work. However, we don't have to commit to that very categorical statement, and we can work within a much weaker framework:

Even if various aspects of technical analysis could work in theory, they are too hard to get right for a single trader who is trying to wrangle it alone on his laptop. If it worked, then to get it right you still need a team of PhDs, and infrastructure, and computing clusers, etc. etc. So, forget it.

If you are worried about paying too much, or you are worried that you will miss out an opportunity, then learn how to use options to solve those problems for you.
A belief is an act of conjuring complete information from incomplete information.

I think all beliefs must come from some nonzero amount of evidence. They seem absurd when evidence from one domain is transferred to a different domain in order to support some statement.

I think everything is deterministic because I can't imagine true randomness. It's a concept we use to represent lack of information.

I don't have a good grasp of quantum physics and I think every process described as random is like a coin flip: the outcome seems "random", but in reality you would be able to predict it if you had 1. enough information about the initial conditions 2. sufficiently accurate knowledge of the presumably deterministic physical laws governing the process.
The framing does not imply that at all. The framing is "Convenience store robber attacks police officer and was killed in the process". The justification for the shooting is clearly that the robber attacked the police officer, not that he robbed a convenience store.
Agreed, however, there are many interpretations which have many caveats. I was raised in a particularly hard-core interpretation of the bible and we had to do a lot more to get to heaven than just treat others how you would like to be treated. Also, what is your margin of error for that in a particular interpretation? Can you repent or off to hell with you after one strike? Ours was closer to the latter. All the questions I had as a child about those things and the logic fallacies coming out it where said to be god's domain, not mine (and continuing that line of questioning actually was said to be sort of a sin (I do not remember how severe it was, just that this is in the bible somewhere and that I got a lot of school penalties asking questions), with bible verses quoted).

I've tried D after programming in Perl and wish it had existed when I was in highschool and in my first uni year, so that I could have been taught D instead of Borland C.

It's too bad it didn't make its way into embedded programming where we still have to use C or C++ or dumbed down high level languages, even if it was just for the BetterC part. D-style OOP would be nice as well, though. Maybe LDC and GDC would change that by targeting more platforms and ARM eating the world.
