Well so if servers were able to identify themselves to each other using a public key, they could change domains whenever they wanted and just update the others with a signed message. You'd still use DNS to navigate, for user identifiers, but a change wouldn't break federation. Unfortunately this is not in the spec and it is a bit involved to do.
Say's Law: Production is the source of demand
> What benchmarks? Not a lot of real programs actually use AVX512, and a lot of the ones that did discovered that it made performance worse, so they stopped.

This paints a picture of what happened to Intel's fab process rather than AVX-512 itself.

AVX-512 was proposed back in 2013. It was NOT designed for desktops. The original designs were for their Phi chips (basically turning a bunch of x86 cores into a GPU). These Phi chips ran between 1 and 1.5GHz, so power consumption and clocks were always matched up.

Intel wanted to move these instructions into their HPC CPUs. The problem at hand was ultra-high turbo speeds. These speeds work because the heat is a bit spread out on the chip and a lot of pieces are disabled at any given time. With AVX-512, they had 30% of the core going wide open for the vector units (not to mention the added usage from saturating the load/store bandwidth).

They wanted 10nm and then 7nm to fix these issues. At their predicted schedule, 10nm would have launched in 2015 and 7nm in 2017.

Given the introduction of AVX-512 in 2013, they had plenty of time. In fact, the first official product was Knight's landing in 2016. Skylake with AVX-512 didn't launch until 2017 when they were supposed to be on 7nm.

Intel was forced to backport their designs to 14nm++++++++++++ which forced a deal with the devil. They had to downclock the CPU to keep within thermal limits, but this slowed down EVERYTHING. Maybe they could have created a separate power plane for AVX, but this would be a BIG change (and probably politically infeasible).

What happens with the downclocking? If you run dedicated AVX-512 loads, then maybe you should have been looking at Phi instead. If not, mixed loads suffered overall because of the lower clockspeeds.

Their second revision of 10nm superfin is still a generation larger (well, probably a half-generation) than what they anticipated. There might still be downclocking, but I'd guess that it's nowhere near what previous iterations required.

TL;DR -- AVX-512 was launched two nodes too early which screwed over performance. It should become acceptable either with 10nm Superfin or 7nm when it launches so the CPU doesn't have to downclock constantly.
What I'm seeing in that threat rather seems like the developer had not signed to hackerone and had not invited bugreports, but received an unsolicited request from the OP to join hackerone and probably pay them money for a beg-report. I.e. OP had linked a screenshot from hackerone which states that Netapp does not accept unsolicited bugreports.
Mutual Authentication – What it is and how to do it
Mutual authentication is a complex and deep subject in cybersecurity, but it’s also an important aspect of zero trust.
That’s why I wrote this doc, explaining the concept and several practical examples across different network layers and configurations.
Is that supposed to be something deep?
It was a bad move on their part, but fwiw they walked that plan back, and it was opt-in from the start.
Are you sure you are not erecting two strawmen there?

In a democracy, the public chooses their leaders. They do so based on the readily available information.
If the only (or overwhelminly prevalent) sources of information have other agendas, such as serving the needs of their conglomerate owners or a totalitarian-aspiring government then that information will be of low quality and likely to further cement the power of those that control the media.

To counteract this, a way must be devised to ensure diligent journalistic types (of whom there is no shortage) have the means and security to do their proper diligence for the public.
That's the beauty of hosting this on github. You can just look at the active forks and find a better list.

Though, it'd be nice if Github forks could all come together and vote on a new "primary" when the source repo gets abandoned.
DaVinci resolve is free for non-commercial *and commercial* use and I would personally choose it over Premiere Pro (I switched from Premiere Pro to Resolve and later upgraded to Resolve Studio). The Studio version mostly adds stuff like realtime noise reduction—which is amazing, but it extends well beyond the functionality I expect from a professional NLE. Some codecs are not included or don't work as well with the free version so YMMV depending on source formats, OS, and hardware, but that wasn't an issue for me when I was using it.

As an aside, BMD just released a bunch of new training material for free on their website (no registration required):

When did you try?
Fixnum/Bignum are gone since many years (before 1.0RC1 which was April 2018, it's all Integer now).
So I guess many years ago, and back then TruffleRuby was basically implementing Ruby features, had fairly limited compatibility and likely could not run Rails, very different from today.

There were compatibility issues with BigDecimal, but TruffleRuby now uses the C extension, hence it should be exactly the same behavior as CRuby.

> Numerical to string formatting is a bit different too.

AFAIK that was fixed years ago if you mean float formatting.

> Regexes behave differently if they worked at all.

TruffleRuby always used Joni, which is literally a translation of CRuby's Regexp engine to Java (by the JRuby team), so that is very surprising and I have a really hard time to believe it.
At least "Regexes behave differently if they worked at all" seems harsh and highly inaccurate to me.
There likely were a couple Regexp issues but the generalization seems wildly exaggerated.

> You misread my statement. The trust of banks is an illusion and actually slower than the consensus.

It doesn't matter. Trust makes the world go round.

Even if consensus took seconds to attain instead of minutes, it would still be too slow to maintain the liquidity of even current financial markets. We're talking 2-6 billion trades per day on NYSE alone, often concurrently - as low as 4.6 microseconds per execution. There is no way we'd be able to achieve that with the consensus state of the art.

Only through offline trust and batch reconciliation can we achieve this kind of liquidity.

Biden could declare national emergency using Public Health Service Act

I've also never worked in a C++ place that didn't make their own core libraries, but when you ask, their rationale for building and maintaining their own libraries (as opposed to using the Standard Library) is often very weak. It's usually based on very outdated assumptions and Cargo Cutting, such as "the STL[1] is slow (but we haven't profiled ours to prove it's faster)." Or "We need our own string type because decades ago, there was something that std::string didn't do." Or "Our founding developer didn't like templates, so he build this vast copy of the standard library but using explicit data types."

(yes I've heard all of these "reasons")

1: Just calling it "the STL" is a key sign of living in the past--pretty much nobody uses the actual STL anymore: What we use is called the C++ Standard Library.
It was regarded as awful nonsense in my social circles when it came out.

Value chains – A method for creating and balancing faucet-&-drain game economies
I think you have a serious misunderstanding of the DES story: the NSA made changes to the S-box without explanation in the 1970's, and everyone was suspicious at the time, but then 15 years later two researchers "discovered" differential cryptanalysis, and realized that the changes the NSA made actually protected it against this form of attack. So instead of weakening it, the changes the NSA made protected it against a then unknown (in UNCLASS) attacks.

The NSA did push to reduce the key size from 64 to 48, which is why the eventual standard was to the always bizarre 56 bits.

One of the best things about Sneakers is that it doesn't play down to its audience. There's little to no expository dialog. There are flashbacks that drive the plot, but no flashbacks or other artificial constructs that explain technology or terms. Everything is presented smartly, and the writers and director trust the audience to understand what's going on.

It manages to be specific about technical things without feeling aged, even now.

I might be biased since I'm an old 80s phone phreak/cracker/hacker, but I can think of few other examples that capture what things were really like, with social engineering proving as (or more) valuable than hacking, dumpster diving, and a group of people driven more by geeky interest than profit motive (although not entirely, of course). The only other hacking film that comes close is War Games, but only the first half.

> so taxing certain items even at the individual sale level could influence things. Putting fuel in your car? 10% carbon tax, both you and the corporation paid a tax, that goes into the coffer to pay for other kinds of more active carbon reduction programs.

The issue is that there's no guarantee that the 10% extra burden is going to green initiatives. It ends up going to the ever ballooning government budget and pays for pension funds for underperforming government employees.
While this is true, it's also more of a crutch. You should practice to predict, before your rebase, what conflicts your are gonna hit. And aborting a rebase is a significantly safer option. I would only recommend reflog when you rebased (on) the wrong commit and you want to undo a successful rebase.

>> And even that information is empty bromides about how it's "designed with practicality and efficiency in mind". Hmm, I prefer my software to be impractical and inefficient...

the opposite from practical is general. for example is std not practical but general. Its api is not optimized for 95% of the use cases but rather so that everything is possible and equaly verbose.

the opposite of efficient can for example be trade of for readability, portability and cost (as in development time).

For me as a possible user of the lib i found this information critical. I write always similar info in the readme for my libraries.

Yes, people cheat* because they are selfish, and any economic system has to take that into account which is where communism and libertarianism fall apart.

> Both films have nonsensical MacGuffins as their central element

Sneakers automatically decrypting something is a conceit of the movie to show what the device can do (find primes to break encryption), even if the way they go about showing it is silly. If you had more time and an understanding audience, you could replace that with a scene where they try out the encryption breaking on files, etc, and the movie works the same for the most part if you explain why it's important. It's all understood technology, explained with the limitations of the time.

Wargames rests on an AI which we still can't make and aren't sure how to make or if it's necessarily possible to make. The movie falls apart entirely if it's not a learning computer. The conversing audibly is a conceit to make it more approachable as a film like in Sneakers, but that's not the largely problematic part.
by all accounts those "other" advanced countries offer a better socioeconomy model for how to organize things. The (recent) US is really an outlier that makes no sense whatsoever.

But there is a weakness in this view, namely the enormous security (and energy) dependency of those "other" countries on the US. It is a coupled system, making it hard to isolate what the standalone merits of the various modelw

Doesn't happen in a sane language. Or, even not a sanely defined language/implementation.

I can easily have multiple different GCC copies (possibly for different processor targets) on the same machine. Each one knows where its own files are; an #include <stdio.h> compiled with your /path/to/arm-linux-eabi-gcc will positively not use your /usr/include/stdio.h, unless you explicitly do stupid things, like -I/usr/include on the command line.

The popups are a result of tracking, not GDPR. Websites without tracking don't need to have them.

It's somewhat amusing that the overlap of garbage content farms and sites with annoying consent popups is almost perfect. I wonder if it could be used for search engine ranking.
For key and BPM data, the MetaBrainz foundation also has AcousticBrainz: https://acousticbrainz.org/ (I'm a developer on this project).

- https://essentia.upf.edu/). Over the last few years the algorithms in Essentia have improved and we're hoping to release a new version of the tool used in AcousticBrainz to improve the database.
The NY Post article you link to is about getting both Covid and influenza at the same time. That may be rare.

Getting covid a second time after having previously had it (which is what McCullough erroneously claimed was near impossible) is in fact increasingly common.
The AGB's resolution is 240x160. The panel used is new-old-stock or reproduction equivalent from the BlackBerry Curve 9380: a 480x360 panel, which allows the AGB adapter to output a 2x integer-scaled 480x240 image.

When playing a DMG or CGB game, the image is still 2x but otherwise the image and behavior comes from the stock AGB hardware: a default scale places a 160x144 image in the center of the display, and pressing the L and R buttons allow you to toggle between that native mode and a horizontally stretched mode (that basically nobody likes).

The tearing existed in the initial version of the adapter ribbon, as the 9380's display driver refreshes the display in portrait rather than the AGB's landscape. The second revision of the adapter, which started shipping only a couple months after the initial, way back in 2019, adds a 1-frame buffer to output the signal in the way that the display driver expects. The AGB's frame rate is a hair under 60Hz, so this does introduce a 16ms delay, but in the vast majority of AGB games this drawback is outweighed by all of the other benefits.
When this happens to me it's always because of an all or nothing mentality. Even if it's not explicitly in your thought process you get that feeling that you screwed up and things aren't worth doing anymore. I think you need to become comfortable with the idea of not executing on your routine perfectly every day (for good reasons such as moving or illness).
Yeah, that is something I will be doing, for sure.
The downside of such a setup is that as a user, I now have no idea if the site is actually secure. If the mom-and-pop shop is taking credit card orders and has a secure Cloudflare cert, how do I know they aren't then transmitting my credit card number and other personal data unencrypted the rest of the way? If the website was HTTP I would know as a user not to enter sensitive info.

This is why I think flexible SSL is worse than no SSL. Cloudflare's own docs used to say Flexible SSL "should only be used as a last resort if you are not able to setup SSL on your own web server, but it is less secure than any other option (even “Off”)" (this has since been removed).
