> That's a sweeping statement, so where's your evidence - as most of the world disagrees with you - so too does the science.

The sweeping statement is yours: that "everyone" needs the vaccine. You're trying to shift the burden of sweeping statements to the person who disagrees with your original sweeping assertion.

Nowhere does "science say" that everyone needs the vaccine. You're confusing policy decisions which turn into "rules are rules", which turn into "what the science says".

Are you forgetting that last September, the UK's Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunization recommended against vaccinating children? If that wasn't "science" what was it? This is merely one example of science-based objection to the "need" to vaccinate everything that crawls or walks.

> "their risk of severe COVID-19 disease is small and therefore the potential for benefit from COVID-19 vaccination is also small. The committee underlined that the vast majority of children had mild or no symptoms. It also pointed out the very low risk of heart inflammation with mRNA vaccines, noting that the long-term effects of this were unknown."
https://www.politico.eu/article/uk-committee-healthy-kids-ag...

Sounds like science and reason formed their opinion. But they were overruled by the higher-up policy makers and politicians.

> "And the example he should have set would have been to get vaccinated whether he needed to do so or not - as that's what celebrities do!"

Wow. "That's what celebrities do". It amazes me how easily people slip into a fabricated signalling world, where mandating "solidarity vaccination" and towing party lines is normal behaviour, even expected and mandated because "keeping people safe"!

Novak had Covid, recovered, and does not want the vaccine for himself as his symptoms were obviously mild, which is the norm for his health profile. That's his business.

If you aren't defending the right of anyone to make their own choice on that basis, it's sad. Omicron spreads regardless. The Australian government acknowledged he was not an actual risk, but they were worried about "anti-vax" sentiment from his presence in the country. The sad irony is Novak wanted to keep his vaccination status private. He would have been happy not to discuss it at all, but the media did not allow it, and a tennis villain was forged in the outrage fires.

You can read Dostoyevsky just normally - immersing yourself in story, characters, atmosphere and depression of it.

Overanalysing it kills that pleasure and atmosphere. That is not reading, that is doing seminar.
It sounds like you're going for black-and-blue, char on the outside but still mooing in the center. It works for lean cuts like filet but if you try it with fatty cuts like ribeye (my particular favorite) then the fat doesn't render and the overall effect is less juicy and flavorful.
Absolutely not. MAME's primary purpose is to document the hardware and ROM revisions, and to preserve as much accurate data about the machines as possible. You can use MAME sets to actually replace damaged ROMs, and the tools that come with MAME (romcmp) can help you identify an unknown board if you pull chip data off of it.
Wow there is a plane roughly every 2-3 minutes even at 1 am. You should be living pretty close to the airport for that kind of traffic?

Would it be possible to mount a omnidirectional mic along with the camera to see if you capture any sounds ?

In particular, the world runs on power laws, and I'm betting most server apps are boring occasional internal stuff at the not-even-1-qps level. Long tails add up to be the typical project. So yeah, if all the worlds internal django tools can do scale-to-zero with fast cold start on shared boxes with 100X more tenancy than today, that's saving a lot of electricity & hw. Sort of a virtualization equivalent of "640K ought to be enough for anybody".

I don't know, the name implies they target the RyuJIT, which is a state of the art JIT compiler. I feel in general games should perform really well on a JIT since they are predominantly performance sensitive in a tight loop. Dolphin also has a JIT if I'm not mistaken. The alternative is to interpret which in theory should have worse performance (though in practice there's definitely exceptions to that rule).

I think it should be possible to achieve predictable performance, though it depends on the qualities of the JIT, it won't work if it's constantly recompiling or allocating stuff that needs to be garbage collected of course.
You are making too much sense.

An extreme example these days are the people who buy games for $5 on Steam sales and never even download them because they can't afford the 200 hours or so to enjoy the game.

The 200 hours isn't quite the reward. A jog isn't rewarding. Reading a paragraph isn't rewarding. You need to read perhaps a chapter at least to get some reward.

I bought Dune. I read until the legendary "fear is the mind killer" scene. And then I put it down and haven't picked it up yet. I got some reward from it, probably not the full amount, but I just couldn't afford the hours to finish the book.
I enjoyed the book very much, later found this review [1] that highlights some issues with it. I've updated the article with a link to the review.

The customers' dislike of the lowest-cost routes might have to do with surprises that can occur along the route. For example, if the vehicle breaks down, it's better to have made as many deliveries as possible already so you don't have to offload as much or any of the cargo to another vehicle. A route that greedily visits deliveries and then has a long return leg is better from this perspective. Another thing that might happen is additional stops might be added as new information becomes available. Leaving the return leg less constrained makes the average cost of adding a stop in a new area lower.
You don't test for malware. You test to make sure the attack vector that's used to install malware is closed to attackers. For example, if you have an upload feature your tests should check that your file type filtering actually works, that things in your upload directory aren't executable, that you can't upload to the path of an existing file, and so on. You should build with security in mind, and test that the code you wrote does what you think it should do, and that it doesn't do things it shouldn't do.

Hey, I'm one of the atlas's creator. Thanks for the feedback.

I'm actually familiar with all the things you mentioned here (I worked at FB too ;)), and some of them are the reasons why we decided to create atlas and OSS it.

First, atm, we support HCL and Go (with fluent API) for describing schemas, but in the next versions, we'll add support for SQL DDLs (e.g. "CREATE TABLE", "CREATE INDEX", etc). Can't promise time estimation because it's in development, but that means we plan to OSS with it an SQL-parser infrastructure for the supported databases (can elaborate on that if you want).

Before I continue to migration authoring, I want to mention the reason we chose HCL (or Go). In next versions, we plan to support attaching "annotations" to schemas, like in k8s or in ent [1]. We these annotations, you'll be able to define privacy policy, or create integration to other tool. More details in the near future.

Now, migration authoring. The CLI does not expose all functionalities that are covered by the core engine atm, but when you run this tool (apply/plan) the output is a list of SQL statements. The core engine already knows to generate the "reverse" command for each statement (if it is reversible), and also a summary that indicates if the migration is "transactional" and "reversible" (see example [2]).
Next version of atlas is going to support "migration authoring" - that means, instead of generate you list of statements and execute them (after approve), we'll let you the option to generate them to a directory, edit them, and integrate them with tools like flyway, go-migrate, etc.

In addition to that, the engine is also going to suggest you to break a migration plan to multiple steps (like a DBA) in order to make it transactional or reversible if it is not.

Sea shanties written for the digital age
Gall’s Law: “A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked. A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work. You have to start over with a working simple system.”

I tend to be skeptical of long-term projects without intermediate artefacts on which we can provide feedback, iterate, and improve.

I get the concept that they want to work quietly to build something as part of a grand vision… it certainly is not doomed to failure, but as the gap between vision <> tangible implementation widens, so does the probability of widespread success.
> segfault lets the user know that the developer made a mistake, and where in the code it happened. Blaming C for segfaults is blaming the tool.

You can't even assume that most things will segfault though; with UB, you're lucky if it segfaults, since it's more noticeable and easier to debug! But there's not guarantee it will do that when you mess up.

> There is a place for Zig, and Nim and Rust in this world, but there is no world in which these tools make the same trade-offs as C and end up with a faster and more portable (across hardware) language.

I don't think anyone is arguing that a language would be faster or more portable, just that one could be written that's equally fast and portable enough to be useful for most things. I'd be happy to let C remain dominant specialized hardware if it means that the OS for my laptop, desktop, and phone can be written in something safer and as fast.

Purpose built hardware can do many operations in a single or fewer clocks. For example reading an input, doing some math to it, and outputting it. A modern microcontroller can do some of that pretty fast, but change over to something like a PC and you're actually fighting a lot of delays in processing. For example you cant just thread out the various hardware components and emulate them efficiently. The OS is going to schedule when those threads execute. Therefore you get locked into one core and are dependent on single clock speed. Even then you're fighting inefficiencies in emulating real hardware.
If everybody wants to commute roughly to the same area in the city, it's much easier to build public transport that serves them. Dense cores work very well until the city becomes too big to support reasonable commute times from the periphery to the center by public transport. Of course you need to take care that things like supermarkets, restaurants, schools, libraries and such are well distributed so that people can walk or cycle to them.

Pairing it with a low refresh rate is admitting defeat. There are already multiple products on the market with full-screen refresh beyond 30Hz; Dasung’s Paperlike is probably the best known, they don’t publish an actual figure but just say it’s almost as high as LCDs; I’ve found one place of no obvious credibility saying it’s about 40Hz. All this is with ghosting, of course. High quality rendering definitely takes longer, and I get the impression from my reading and observations of a real device that bandwidth may play a part in that speed limit.

Partial screen updates can go much faster than that; reMarkable 2’s total latency from marker to screen update is around 23ms if I recall correctly, and I suspect (without confirmation) that it’s updating the screen at 200Hz, the sample rate of the marker.

In theory, yes, you can go down to 1- or 4-bit colour (and at 600dpi I think going hard monochrome and depending on dithering would be quite acceptable), but in practice software stacks are rather attached to 24-bit and don’t tend to like going below 8-bit. Especially general-purpose stacks—if you build something yourself from the ground up (whatever that means), then sure, you can generally choose your own path. There are certainly paths that make better use of meagre resources, but experience says they’re seldom taken.

I think you’re probably underestimating how much power pushing that many pixels and that much screen bandwidth takes. Such a device is feasible (provided they can manufacture a large enough panel with a tiny enough dot pitch), but not straightforward, and will have some significant tradeoffs. I’m not surprised no one’s trying anything even close to it.
this is really great!

> Enhancing the transparency of data on securities lending transactions should provide more information to help illuminate investor behavior in the securities lending market and the broader securities market more generally.

> It will also provide beneficial owners and borrowers with better tools to ascertain current market conditions for securities loans and allow them to determine whether the terms that they receive for their loans are consistent with market conditions.
> The entire boundary scan chain is a backdoor. You could have an embedded processor poking around looking for things that look like RISC-V code and adding implants or observe state.

The point is that is not feasible when the design layout is randomized. Reverse engineering FPGA bitstreams is a notoriously hard problem. You might detect your synthesis of RISC-V but there is no algorithm that can detect any RISC-V, and definitely no algorithm that can do that in a tiny low power embedded processor that can pass by unnoticed.

> You could make SERDESes do various kinds of naughty things when certain patterns go by-- dump some scan chain info, so you can kick some special packets and read out state remotely.

Yes, backdooring I/O is still possible. But it significantly raises the bar for the backdoor, since now you're relying on significant back and forth to probe deeper into the system. This isn't an absolute defense, it's just better than hard silicon because you can make backdooring the core logic impractical, especially self-contained.

> You could make naughty patterns of bits crossing places do bad stuff. Think of dynamic effects like rowhammer being deliberately included, so if you know the design you can figure out what outside data will trigger bits to flip and state to leak. (Yes, I know that block rams are SRAMs, but that doesn't mean you can't deliberately add capacitive coupling or screw up synchronizers in various ways. And it looks like we may have block NVRAMs soon, so that opens the possibility for various evil even more).

With design randomization, you can make it hard to detect patterns like that. Think things like randomizing the polarity of each bit line going in/out of RAM. Again, the point is the backdoor has to work with any design, and this opens up a wide range of mitigations that you can implement at that stage, that make it a lot less practical.

Keep in mind I'm bringing this up in the context of people believing that some ThinkPad the FSF rubber-stamped respects your freedom (and security) when it contains microcontrollers hooked up to LPC running secret blobs. Yes, if we want to go deeper down the rabbit hole of hardware trustability, there is definitely more to be done after Precursor, but it's a particularly clever example of how to at least attempt to begin to solve the silicon trust problem.

Worst case scenario, the drive can only read the disk at playback speed. So a 2 hour movie could take 2 hours. In practice it will be much faster than that.

Note that a 50GB Blu-ray that plays for 2 hours is only 56mbps on average. So you won’t be limited by decryption/disk/network speed even on a very old computer that writes to a single HDD on your NAS over 100mbps Ethernet.

If you want to transcode to make the file size smaller, don’t bother. An old computer will take ~20 hours to encode 2 hours of HD video unless you’re fine with YIFY level quality.

Here's one macOS-specific tip: I want to use Facebook to connect with some relatives and friends, but I don't want to be drawn to it all the time. I have set up another account on my Mac, but in greyscale mode (System Preferences, Accessibility, Display, Colour Filters, Greyscale). I have logged into Facebook in a browser in that account and not in my main account, and I don't keep my Facebook credentials in my usual password manager. I find that having to go through Fast User Switching and enter a password adds enough friction that I don't mindlessly open Facebook, and the greyscale mode makes it sufficiently less fun to browse the web that it is easy for me to stop after doing what I was going to do.
Someone managed to con people by selling them land that doesn't exist. I don't see the relevance? If you buy bitcoins they may be useless in the future. There is no promise whatsoever that they will be worth something in the future and that is the big difference. Nobody gets conned. During the past 12 years it has gone up and it has gone down, a ponzi doesn't tend to revive itself after it gets discovered and they're forbidden by law. Whichever way bitcoin goes in the future nobody knows. There are definitely ponzi schemes within the crypto sphere but bitcoin isn't one of them. BitConnect was such an example and so was OneCoin, there are probably more recent ones as well but it's not something I keep track of.
