Not sure why people are that hostile. I'm sure that identifying someone also can identify you if the circle around the person is small enough, and if said person is powerful enough, people choosing to believe them over him would end careers, yes. He'd have to say "well, i worked on this particular study with him, and the data was made up vs actually collected."

I think its more "how dare you hint scientists are corrupt!" that kind of drives the outrage.
This time is different.

There's increases in wages right now as well and employees are demanding higher salaries.

They don't care about asset price inflation, they care deeply about wage-price spirals.
"Blockchain" is basically just a Merkle tree with a branching factor extremely close to 1. That is, in and of itself, neithre inefficient nor bad.

However, pairing that with a proof-of-work consensus mechanism is incredibly inefficient, energy-consuming (requires at least 50% of all available compute to be engaged with the blockchain or risk bad actors taking over).

My WFH sedentary life (Sitting, lying down) is more than 11 hr?
I notes down my daily routine & realized I am either sitting (in front of a screen) or lying down on couch watching TV for more than 12 hours per day ? This can't be healthy.

I do go for long walks which is 1 hr and if I remove 6hrs of actual sleep , 3 more hour of other stuff like shower, washroom, cooking, cleaning etc. I would still have 14hr where I am just sitting.

When I was going to the office, I would spend way more time going for walks around the office building, run to grab coffee etc. I think it was much more energetic life style.

What do you guys do to solve this ?
Heh, underground entrance looks EXACTLY like our entrance within our smaller data center premises here in Riga, a former soviet nuclear shelter. In our case, there is exact same thing on the opposite side. It is designed that way because it lets explosive blast escape the the other doors...

Here you can see, that "brother entrance" is on the other side. http://tour.deac.eu/Grizinkalns.html

Except, we currently don't maintain it to a level that is required to withstand nuclear war, so sorry if you ever wanted those guarantees...
The demand for leading-edge nodes comes from CPUs and GPUs. Once they move to the newest node, won’t previous capacity be freed to manufacture chips that don’t strictly need the better process but simply need manufacturing capacity? The machines are surely depreciated by then. Or is the cost of porting the design and making the masks prohibitive?
So it's the regular smart TV just its smartness - any any useful ports you'd want from a TV - comes in two parts?

I'm not sure that's what the parent commenter was asking for.
It's not just Latin America. Most of my acquaintances here in Western Europe are getting remote jobs at American companies.

Honestly, this should concern everyone who lives in the US. I remember the big push for remote work being the "new normal" and thinking how this would bite people who live in more expensive areas. Well... here you go.
My friend volunteers here like all the time! Im really looking forward to visiting soon. It seems like the volunteer community there is really amazing and full of super interesting knowledgeable people. I wish we had a museum like this in Sacramento.

How is it that these types of museums are so rare when computers and telecommunications are so important?
I see what you’re saying, it’s just that one party is using their free speech to speak out against free speech. So while technically no rights are violated it is not a win for free speech.

Err, you are aware that electric cars are not more environment friendly than diesel or petrol cars? You more or less just shift the environmental damage to the location of production (batteries, etc).

Especially if you consider how modern cars are not meant to be driven for 20+ years. My diesel van is over 25 years old and still going smoothly. Can you imagine to drive a current Tesla for the next 25 years? How many cars will you "use up"? Let's compare the environmental damage.
Pfizer accepted orders, but had a very special contract that meant the US needed to back off.

They did manufacturer outside the US just fine. A simple Google search could have given that info.
No, there's not really a universe in which the high speed lines to Urumqi or Lhasa really make any (financial) sense. They literally do not sell enough tickets to pay to energize the wires.
Those countries you mentioned aren’t as archetypically Catholic as Spain. Also, remember that the version of Catholicism that made its way to LA through colonialism was, in essence, medieval. While in Europe new ideas entered and became established in the Christian religion, we were stuck with the medieval version of Catholicism for several centuries. It wasn’t until the end of the 19th century that new ideas started entering the collective consciousness.

Top Ten Technology Articles of 2021
The author's list of demands describe my 2011 Renault Kangoo II, a model they only stopped producing in 2021, very well. Knobs, analog gauges, but also a factory-installed reverse parking sensor. It's down-market and inexpensive, It's a very simple car, and also very simple to work on, as a consequence. 15000-page service manual, as well. Utilitarian (ex-)fleet vehicles (mine was a Swiss Post delivery van) might still check these boxes for folks.
The three recommendations are literally the antithesis of what modern news media does today, which is, in turn, largely due to the political motivations of the media organisations and their owners. I very much doubt that the royal society does not know this already.
100% on the hoarding thing. Everyone I know of is making larger buys than ever, enough for years or production if not a products lifetime worth. This has t have an impact on the available supplies.
Hahaha you got me
> 90% of PR and Web/UI/UX people could be safely fired after a couple of interactions of the design (and brought back 3-5-7 years later when the new or re-design would be needed). Sitting and not doing anything would make them fired, so they invent "new", "innovative" and other bullshit named things to justify their pay.

Isn't this most positions and just people in general, in some capacity?

Business and sales pushing for new features that no one necessarily needs.
Back end devs padding their CVs with hot tech and often doing refactoring for the sake of refactoring.
Front end devs adding more bloat for marginal visual gains and messing with the UI/UX.
DBAs mucking about with indices which will either improve or worsen things when the DB is performing adequately already.
Ops pushing for using new industry practices which will probably introduce undue complexity into the mix.
QA being overly nitpicky about bugs or even visual flaws that no one will ever even run into or notice.
Security complaining about supposed CVEs that automated scanning picked up, but that cannot realistically be exploited.

Humans are pretty curious by nature and like to feel like they're doing a good job, so i can't help but to feel that it's turtles all the way down, regardless in which direction you look - everyone will be trying to follow industry trends and not miss out, keep their skills relevant or just do anything to justify the existence of their own position.
I was honestly shocked that I couldn't find many blog posts or articles about managing this process. The tag based mechanism was one I came up with on my own because we needed something. We're also a small team of 5 engineers, with many small microservices that each have their own pipelines. The problem with main being the release tracker is that it doesn't work if you have multiple environment stages. Stage specific branches work, but then you don't get history.
Exactly. I find it hard to see it myself, but I often play out games like that with an engine and very often the pieces just peter out to a draw.
Sending it back to your employer would result in getting the people who usually truly do nothing (shareholders, board members etc) to get more money. I cannot really see how this type of action can work out. It has to start from a government or a large company doing it first. In the EU we have this more or less gov controlled and it works ok. But of course software engineers cry they make too little as they compare to the US.

I can recall how easy it was to write and compile a COM dll and have it running instantly in IIS. Everyone running Windows Server 2nnx had IIS. It was a time to be alive.
I see your point, here in Europe it's different, since health care is usually free.

For me the infinite booster shots, is something that i want to skip, as an informed decision based on available data.

That might change further down the road, but i have an equally strong opinion that people should decide for themselves.

The financial viewpoint however, should convince some people that taking the vaccine is a sound choice.
It's usually not technical or capacity usually it's the whole ecosystem surrounding 14, 7, 5nm and lower ecosystems that makes it not really profitable. The initial costs grows exponentially. SOC, CPU and GPU might be one of the few consumer goods the economics work.
Small LCD screens embedded behind double glass in the rear-view mirror are common in the aftermarket backup camera sets. Any sufficiently-motivated car manufacturer could design something similar to meet regs without moving their controls to a central screen.
Shouldn’t you include 5 years of lost Bay Area rental income in that comparison? That could be another 250-300k on the side of the house.
These seem fairly advanced, so I don’t know if I would call them “common”. But maybe I am out of the loop. Are these concepts and very specific sounding beliefs actually widely known to math majors or CS majors?
Something intersting about MathOverflow is that it started as an independent site, with the creators eventually agreeing to make it part of the StackExchange network. I believe part of the agreement allows the owners of MathOverflow to break off from the main site again, in the event of a major disagreement between MO and SE. I'm sure they're glad to have an escape hatch given the recent aquisition!
To skip intros and sponsored content, I use SponsorBlock extension. It skips those segments automatically.

Not a "product". I want exactly the UI I bought, with perhaps some changes I chose myself.

If the UI update is bad and the car is now worth less, you've damaged my property.

Edit: apparently the updates are opt-in so it's not quite as bad, but still.

For anyone else who's mind went blank trying to work out just what sort of "inverse" can be applied to a circle. It's interesting math and the diagrams are worth checking out, some very nice use of interactivity to assist with understanding the nature of the function.

But definitely not the kind of inverse I was expecting.

I went to "A function that's equal everywhere not the circle you define in the function", some sort of f(x,y) = !f(circle) by way some sort of algebraic geometry math. Then I was trying to work out if it meant something else... then I loaded it and was genuinely surprised to find its a much more specific kind of inverse that never even occurred to me.
While this is slightly nitpicky, from what I gather many of those draws are because neither side can make progress against the opponent. These are positions where in order for the game to move "forward" both sides would need to individually choose to weaken their position, leaving them playing non-moves until triggering threefold repetition or agreeing to a draw.
It would be interesting to see if there is anything which would let black start on equal terms.
Do not use Hugo for this kind of setup. It's horrendously complicated and it was probably never meant to be used like this. Hugo might be good for a blog, but even a simple personal static site where you want to have different templates for each page is only achievable by jumping so many hoops.
There is one problem: there are too many draws at top human level.

It seems like a lot of performance optimizations that used to require custom kernels can now be implemented using io_uring instead. Does anyone know if any such performance improvements are making their way into places where they can be felt by those of us working higher up the tech stack? (E.g. if nginx, node or similar got faster networking or disk access)
What a nice-looking vehicle - both inside and out! Compare it to the lackluster Teslas! Honestly, I feel like I'm back during the Soviet times when everybody drove the same cars - given how many identical Teslas are on California roads today! I think this phenomenon of non-originality was started by iPhone!
Yes (although not for CS majors, this is very math heavy). For all of the top answers I went through, I think most math majors have believed it, know someone who has believed it, or could at least plausibly see how someone could believe it.

To the question of how advanced these are, with only a few exceptions, the majority of things there are covered in undergraduate analysis, algebra, and topology courses.
Adidas is German.
Counterpoint: it locks all functionality behind a single point of failure, rendering all cabin controls useless simultaneously in the event of a failure of the screen or the upstream chain to the computer driving it (to say nothing of the distraction caused by a system you can't operate by feel with your eyes still on the road)
No mountain high enough: study finds plastic in ‘clean’ air
Non-COM: The function needs to be in your process. Unless you're committing deep heresy, it'll have to be written in the same language as the code you're writing right now

COM: The function can be in the same process. It can be in another process. That process might be written in a different language, or running on a different computer.

The best we've come up with to actually mimic the COM feature set is doing HTTP. For some reason, a large subset of programmers seem to think "complex=slow", and truly believe that JSON is faster than binary-packed structures.

The performance of COM is incredible. In-process servers are practically just as fast as calling native functions. Out-of-process servers are still plenty fast, because you don't have to go opening TCP sockets, doing HTTP request parsing, etc.
> I use shitton of MS products, but I cannot switch from Google's gmail, docs and drive to anything.

Here's my libre stack:

- Thunderbird for e-mail (whichever provider you like, i also self-host a mail server for automation etc.)
- LibreOffice, which i use as a local piece of software, because web office apps rub me the wrong way
- Nextcloud, which i also self-host and which has both desktop software and mobile apps

Of course, that's not something that everyone might want to use for themselves, but personally it has worked out pretty nicely for me, allows me to keep my data private (for the most part) and is a rather cost effective way of doing so!
Other than the 3 lines of boilerplate for the main method, Java ain’t forcing anything. You can write FP with it as well.

Also, it is probably better to get started with the much more common nominal typing over structural.

I'll be the grumpy uncle and tell people NOT to do this.
I really dislike the term "illegal data center", which was coined by Germany's yellow press. The data center was perfectly legal (as in: they were allowed to operate a business involving hosting of servers there, and everyone knew they did). What was illegal was some of the business done on its servers - and the fact that the operator did not cooperate with law enforcement.
But we do own the means of production. Unless you have no personal computer or think the Jira instance we all are forced to use is necessary for coding. =)
> Many chips are fabbed at 1 place only. The chip company owns the IP and has a defacto monopoly on the features of that chip, or even class of chips. If that fab is shut down, no more are being produced and customers have to buy up what brokers can scrounge. The more warehouses get picked out, the higher the prices go. In one extreme example, a chip made at Infineon's Kulim fab in Malaysia, that sold for $0.47, was purchased for $100 @ by (ironically) a chip equipment company.

Perhaps this is an opportunity for FOSS silicon? Everybody understands that currently FOSS tooling/PDK's/etc isn't up to the task of creating a cutting edge CPU on a leading edge fab process, which is the usual retort when somebody brings up FOSS silicon.

But commodifying a sub-$1 chip? Yeah, why not?
I would imagine it would be an asbestos nightmare
Thanks for pointing this out. To be frank, I would not have expected to see someone highly competent attempting to build a core product with Raku, let alone what looks to be an not entirely trivial compiler. I didn't realize that in addition to being a luajit expert agentzh is also a long-time perl hacker.

Amusingly though he found it necessary to write his own proprietary implementation of (a "dialect" of?) Raku, compiling to luajit byte code.

I did, but you don't know how the EU works.

Not only 5$ difference, but a higher accountability from pharma. That was almost all waved in the US as usual.

But you probably didn't notice how there were almost no issues with the western countries in the EU and the article talked about the issue with the eastern countries in the EU?

That's not a problem the EU can really solve for them.

A country was responsible for their rollout and procurement. The vaccine was bought together as an option and countries could decide to participate, that's the EU ( https://www.ft.com/content/c1575e05-70e5-4e5f-b58c-cde5c99ab... ) - all of them did.

Germany also publicly blamed the US for buying too much vaccines and sucking up all the production at a premium price in front of other countries. You didn't really read my previous point about that ( looked for the article, but it's hard to find it seems)

Let's be clear,

I'm from Belgium and I'm pretty sure that we could used some military law to force dips on vaccines we created ( Pfizer/Biontech) and could have done everything faster than the US if we wanted. But we didn't, since it's not fair, selfish and we wouldn't get away with it like the US :)

Heh, I guess that makes them the Texas of StackExchange.
Eerie was living in Topeka in the early 80s when “the day after” was released. For those not familiar with the movie or Kansas, Topeka is just west of Lawrence where the movie was set. Seeing the birds fly from familiar looking land freaked me out.
Fair question. I used to do that always. But now, if I'm logged into a bunch of services, AWS, mail, etc in the browser, I don't want to switch my IP address to test something for fear of getting bounced or locked out. Especially if I'm in a rush to fix something.
I'd go further: for many games the right thing to do is pause execution entirely if the window is minimised or the user switches to another tab or application. Obviously not possible for online multiplayer games, but a good practice for single player.

Rendering can be but isn't always the most expensive portion of a game's execution, but if you have a lot feeding into that in terms of object updates and game logic you can find yourself chewing a surprising amount of CPU time, and therefore power, which isn't great if the host device is running on batteries.
I am a not that old (like pre-php old) programmer. For a personal website, crafting your own static website generator is so easy and fast that I would not even bother reading someone else's documentation.
Yes, the author refers to themselves as "We". Yes, this has been already discussed: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29936255
For what application would one need such a precision?
This string is only "slightly addressable" - in a string of 100 LEDs, you can't display any arbitrary image.

With small changes though, they could have allowed arbitrary addressing, which would have made these LEDs applicable for a far wider variety of products.

One way would be to deliberately make the string of LED's reflect the signal back from the unterminated end of the string. Then, make each LED only respond if the reflection and original signal add up past a threshold.

The controller can then have an initialisation step where it 'discovers' all the functioning LED's and their position on the line (by looking at the power draw when commanding them to turn on).

The downside is you'd be sending GHz bandwidth pulses down a poorly controlled pair of wires, and sharp bends and stuff might leak rather a lot of RF.
WRL is by far the best of the bunch. Instead of

WE_ARE_THE_ATL(MACRO_POINTER$(##PLEASEREGISTER ^& CLASS))

you have

class ListenerCallback : public RuntimeClass<RuntimeClassFlags<ClassicCom>, IWhateverListenerInterface

Lektor might be worth a look: https://www.getlektor.com/

After creating a site you start a local server by executing "lektor run" in the local folder, then preview the site in your webbrowser. There you get a edit-button whivh opens a backend with which you can edit the website. From that backend you can hit an upload button which allows you to push the static site directly to a remote (e.g. via scp).

Multilanguage support works quite good as well.

As for your thesis, i.e., components in embedded system, I think a critical missing piece is C/C++ dependency manager like conan/vcpkg, which IMO is the primary reason why such technology is not popular in embedded world.
