According to the video: It's because your ears are more sensitive to white noise (allowing for a lower volume) and it's more directional a sound allowing for easier echolocation. There, no need to listen to a 2 minute video for a sentence.

Meanwhile, the reason that they shifted in the US is because people had taught themselves to ignore the backup sounds, just as people ignore car alarms.

From perusing the source of the MIT/GNU Scheme compiler, I suspect that “only” two changes are needed to support W^X:

- Compiled code needs to be allocated separately from Scheme objects. It can still be garbage collected and such - they will probably need to make a separate set of allocation functions for code vs. data. The closure/function objects can be made to point to the code, or, if they don’t need to be written often, simply allocated wholly from the “code” pages.
- Before modifying any of the code (e.g. to patch addresses after GC relocation), a system-specific hook function will need to be called to set the permissions to RW. They already call an I-cache flush function after each modification, so this shouldn’t be too bad.

Some of the necessary changes are already sketched out in cmpint.txt. And, sooner or later, they’re going to have to make these changes: OpenBSD already enforces W^X (but provides a workaround), and MIT/GNU Scheme already applies a paxctl workaround to gain W|X on NetBSD.
In a way it is how Google operates: One can send in details about shops and corrections for the maps, but Google is the sole owner of the resulting map.

With OSM however I have the same rights to the combined data as any other entity.
I tried vaping Juul aggressively for a few weeks to try to get addicted. I failed miserably. It just doesn't feel good enough. Zero desire to ever vape again. Very light effects, or more nauseous than anything if you have enough. It is somewhat baffling to me that anyone would find it addictive. I'm not willing to try actual cigarettes for health reasons.

Caffeine is very addictive for me though, and it gives physical withdrawals.

I think there are multiple reasons it's good. It's good for security as you've articulated.

It's also good as an example of sustainable open source development via the consulting model. We've seen a lot of hand-wringing about FOSS funding lately. It may not be as flashy or high-profile as VC-funded open core projects with all their ubiquitous marketing, beautiful websites, and submarine PR. But it's a way to make a living by exchanging useful value in exchange for moderate fees, rather than asking for charity or signing up for an unsustainable investment deal.
Meditate, listen to your body and mind.
Age doesn't do signing because PGP's signing mechanics have been one of the biggest fiascos in popular cryptography (to this day, mainstream PGP use via GnuPG doesn't produce authenticated ciphertext, due to confusion on the part of PGP's designers on the distinction between authentication and signatures). In day-to-day encrypted secure messaging, durable signatures are one of those things that sound great but are actually the opposite of what you want.

The most widespread practical use of PGP's signature capabilities are for package systems, where the actual contents of the package aren't confidential to begin with; PGP is only being used to sign. But PGP signatures are clumsy and archaic, and there are better tools to get the same capability without PGP's baggage --- notably the "signify" scheme that OpenBSD came up with and that minisign implements.

Here are a few in no particular order:

-When adding an item on desktop & then immediately trying to use it on another device I had to manually open BitWarden & pull down to refresh for the item to show up. It wouldn't auto-refresh when opening in Safari or another app, I had to open BitWarden itself to force a refresh

-First class support for Apple Watch. Apple watch support on 1Password for desktop use while my MBP is in clamshell mode works fantastic. When not in clamshell it lets me unlock either via TouchID OR Apple Watch, which is really nice. I almost never have to actually type my password. Plus you can add individual items to your watch for viewing.

-Sharing items to my family members is way simpler than with BitWarden. This was the one that pushed me over to 1Password actually, my girlfriend wanted to start using a password manager. The documentation for having family members/shared entries with BitWarden was pretty confusing and kinda wishy-washy on how exactly to setup that kind of thing. 1Password also recently added the ability to share an item to a user that doesn't use 1Password (via a link with the ability to set a time limit) which can be handy.

-1Password seems to do slightly better with finding authentication related fields in random web pages & apps

-In general I just find the workflow for adding new items/recalling old ones with 1Password slightly more intuitive than with BitWarden

None of these are dealbreakers for using BitWarden at all IMO, just QOL improvements via a paid-for more polished product. BitWarden provides a very solid experience especially considering the free tier, I just think 1Password is a little more polished.

I've worked for four or five TriNet-associated companies over the years - the "standard benefits" package you mention doesn't exist. It's very possible to go from "good benefits and cheap insurance" to "bad benefits via expensive insurance" - just by hopping from one company to another. It depends on what the company you're working for is willing to select and pay out for. Take your time when considering offers and ask about these things up front.

I agree. That seems like the real story here, and it's good that the top of this thread is still about the funding mechanics at play here and not another endless relitigation of the (contested) value of PGP itself.

Carbon rather than energy is the more interesting metric, but at a broad level they're the same.

https://www.globalcarbonproject.org/

The good news is that people have been looking at this for decades and it never totally wiped out the progress, and the global expansion of cheap renewables looks set to take care of the rest.

Carbon tariff agreements will help move this along faster, which is something that's been in the pipeline for a while.

Mostly this has been a final straw for climate change deniers to hang onto: okay, so it turned out the scientists weren't lying, and it was a problem, and solar and wind weren't scams, and won't kill all the birds, and yeah EVs and renewables will save us money as well as making us healthier and saving the planet but "you're just exporting the messy bits to poor nations" is going to hang on for a while I think.

Seems a good couple of decades can pass between human society knowing something and people letting go of their talking points.
Instagram stole @sussexroyal from a real user, and gave it to some entitled "royals" who used the account for like a year before dropping it. So annoying how your handle isn't your handle, it's the company's, and they will steal your handle at a whim.

I never even figured out why the "Royals" wanted specifically @sussexroyal or whatever it was so badly. The Royals can't even be like the rest of us and pick a handle that is available, they have to be like "well no we deserve this one even though someone has it already"
> Why should the creator, or an agent of the creator of that work get that power over me?

Well, you have no inherent right to the creator's work at all, so consider it one of the terms of the agreement in which you get access to the content and the creator gets some form of compensation.

But just to reiterate, this is how it would work under a use-based model. If you have something better to suggest, then by all means do, because I don't think we've uncovered the best solution yet. The comments about copyright require, as you noted, tracking too, but copyright itself only covers part of the problem, and that is not destroying the incentive to create and innovate in the first place (see below).

> Traditional economics don't require this tracking. E.g. I buy a car off of a car lot--the car lot doesn't need to know where and when I'm using the car.

Right, but traditional economic models also don't know how to deal with a situation in which you can buy a car, never have it wear out, and create an infinite number of exact duplicates for free that you could keep for yourself or turn around and sell to anyone else, which is basically the situation we have with digital works.
Perhaps incentives don't line up... but I'm wondering if social media sites like IG should make renting out usernames a thing - obviously there's a market for it. If I'm taking social media hiatus, for example, I wouldn't mind getting paid while away.
It makes sense that as the number of customers grows, the median speed would go down. That just seems like a general scaling cost, even if the number of satellites (and downlinks!) per customer remained the same.

TLDR is you can't. For a very simple example, storing the products of all 3x3 matrices * length 3 vectors in Float16 precision would take 2^193 bytes (which is obviously impractical).
With some tweaking, I've had sucess running CUDA code with AMD's HIP framework. You'll need to do some changes probably.
Its not really about managing the process as much as experiencing it end to end. Seeing the "big picture" while still experiencing the customer facing parts.

Its not that unique in businesses, amazon used to expect that office workers do a few shifts in a warehouse, not to manage the warehouse process, but to view how 90% of the workers work, and what a critical component of their business is like.

> I would hope that a C-level manager would have an understanding not only of how the front-end processes work, but also how they affect the company's "big picture".

Do you think they can get that understanding in their home office while taking zoom calls with the finance dept?
In my experience, if it's research that gets you up in the morning then a postdoc is the sweet-spot - you're experienced enough to make good progress but not too senior that you're sat in meetings all day. It's just a shame the salary is so bad you're almost forced to move on.
I was a combo of both. I would build the thing one time when it was brand new. It was a good way of learning how some pieces could be combined and be used in designs. After that, all the pieces got placed into big buckets for later assembly into whatever. I've never had a lego "build" last longer than a few days.
My impression is that dis-economies of scale in fission reactors (safety systems, low-volume manufacturing & construction, local grid management, etc.) are severe enough that neigh-all more-recent proposed designs are for far smaller reactors than the older generation (~1GW per reactor).

I use it indirectly with pass (passwordstore.org), which is one of the few security-related pieces of software I like. Do you have an opinion on that? I've never heard of age before, but it looks like a pass-like interface to it could be ejected in a few hours if one were so inclined.

Is the antipathy towards GPG based on it being too easy to misuse/misapply, or is it because it's broken when used properly?
And fire them if they don't perform!
Thank you! I was unfamiliar with both age and Cwtch. From what I can tell, Cwtch is also a linear messaging system. Are you aware of any software offering secure non-linear (hopefully threaded) messaging, i.e. a secure e-mail replacement? It does not have to be MIME, SMTP, IMAP based like PGP, but preferably support for similar branching conversations and archiving and hopefully with support for multiple users. I love Signal but I find that finding old messages, or groups with more than a few people and branching conversations is a lot less pleasant than e-mail. And thus Signal is not currently a replacement for e-mail for me but a great addition.

I think it’s kind of silly to blame gas prices on Fed action since 2008-2011. Even in nominal terms, gas prices are lower now than the peaks of that time, and for much of the time, gas prices were FAR lower.

Inflation was low for over a decade. We hit a huge pandemic and inflation ticked up. Let’s not crown him vindicated about inflation like a clock that’s right one or twice a day.

These are all perfectly reasonable points that archaeologists, anthropologists, and preservationists are currently dealing with as part of the broader movement to repatriate artifacts.

They're more qualified to answer these questions than I am, but my layman's opinion is that a national museum in the country where the artifact originated seems like a reasonable first-blush recipient. There are, doubtless, exceptions.
These are very long proofs. Is there a succinct version for this problem?
I don't think it would. I'd like to believe leadership in companies that exploit their workers know exactly what they're doing, grilling burgers for a day won't change that.

It might help in e.g. startups, but I think it'd have less of an impact than you think it will.
Ya it affects different people differently. I got hooked on nicotine when I was 12 and managed to quit cold turkey for 3 months twice and still started back up when life got stressful. I tried gum, Wellbutrin, cigars, regular vapes, chewing tobacco and nothing lasted. I never thought I would be able to quit, but Juul got me off of cigarettes, but I'm still hooked on nicotine. I drink coffee regularly but if I miss a day, it's not a big deal other than being groggy for the first hour.

On the other hand, some of my friends in college picked up smoking, then quit once they started working and they said it was pretty easy.
Definitely a publicity stunt.

But I wouldn't be surprised if at the end of the exercise, they actually really do end up unearthing some weaknesses that the process feedback mechanism failed to put sufficient spotlight on.

I mean, how else do you actually test the process feedback mechanisms? I realize that nobody does that, but you'll never know if that mechanism truly works unless you let your CxO do all the work end to end and then ask them if they had sufficient awareness about each small point of friction they encountered.

Another more subtle detail: not sure if DoorDash experiences this, but in my experience it can be difficult to get a newly poached manager from a different company to wrap their head around how - and why - this company is different. The more experienced people are, the more they tend to reach for their old playbooks, which can be good and bad.

You do have a point that large parts of the company could have been carved out (eg: the communications team), and the exercise would have still yielded the same insights, which is why in the end this is a publicity stunt.
Thanks for illustrating the nightmare that three decades later will still roust me from a sound sleep. Back in my pro wrench days, I had to remove-and-replace the head on one of those Hondas. What should have taken an afternoon soon turned into a hellish day-and-a-half of squeezing a vacuum tester.

Frankly, I am happy to hear about this upcoming change. It is true that it’s easy to pop in/out a physical SIM. But I am hoping/projecting that eSIM will become equally easy to plop in the future soon after this change. In return, purely from an engineering perspective I am glad to have one less part. Sort of like the gigapress eliminating a bunch of parts in the car manufacturing
> The question here is really "Did the people who fronted the money for the content get paid?" For simplicity I'm ignoring royalties here.

I admire your intellectual honesty about admitting that royalties exist. Anyway, the question here is where did the money for up-front salaries come from and does does it keep coming when the if the publisher's profits are reduced?

I have participated in a few crowdfunding campaigns and I agree that it could work for a specific niche: where the content creators are already well known enough that they can attract a sufficient audience that trusts them to do something sensible with their money. It's going to be hard for newcomers. Just look at failed kickstarters: there is a lot of trash there but there could be some unpolished gems there.

The hard/soft distinction is a bad metaphor that we should stop using, especially when talking about science.

You can get one today. Tomorrow, after a "security update", apple could just decide that it doesnt like certain ISPs and reject thier virtual sims. Rejecting hardware sims is much more difficult and is likely a violation in many jurisdictions.
The NFT space is so early in its development that the use cases are still being figured out. I think the fundamental concept to understand is that holding the NFT proves your ownership of the associated asset. This in turn opens up interesting down stream use cases- fractional asset ownership, creates liquidity and price discovery mechanisms in things that were previously hard to price, etc.

If you want to play around without worrying about fees, there are 2 approaches- you can develop on the Ethereum test net, this is obviously free. You can also try out Solana which has extremely low fees and very fast processing times, this would be a separate blockchain but the NFT concepts would be the same (I'm not going into the argument which one is more decentralized, that doesn't really matter to you since you just want to try things out).
