One thing people should be aware of, is that C++ exceptions and RTTI are unworkable for a 16 bit target. Those have to be disabled for 16 bit code gen.

The reason is pretty simple - all the support code would exceed 640K. You wouldn't get past a demo program.

Templates work, but you have to be pretty cautious in avoiding template bloat. Probably better off just avoiding them.
I don't disagree, but I think you're neglecting to consider that there is a relationship between defense contractors making money and politicians making war. Not per say causal, a more complex one than that, but incentives can align and push things into happening even in the absence of explicit quid pro quo. Eg, defense contractors can spread projects out over many states to maximize the political impact of their economic activity; politicians observe that war brings money into their state; their incentives have become more aligned, but no laws were broken or bribes exchanged.

There are many ways for this to happen, and all of them occur (to some degree) simultaneously and the impact is cumulative.

The result is that you cannot create a lasting solution by addressing one side of the equation or the other. You have to address them both, simultaneously, or the system will form again for exactly the reasons if formed before.
Let me get this straight, so doing experiments is "not science", while trusting Authority is real science?

I don't know what to say.
I thought it was pretty clear in context that "regular neural net" was a short form of "conventional digital neural network" which I did spell out explicitly the first time.

Any type of artificial neural net could be used. LSTM, transformer, convolutional, fully connected, whatever you want.
oh, there is a far easier, albeit lower tech, way...
> The slippery slope toward Scala's operator madness.

Or is Scala's way what languages eventually converge into?

Funnily, in Scala, all of these are just simple plain methods. Including the pipe "operator". So Scala as a language is actually simpler here.

>>No, it's forced upon them by external circumstances.

Like I said, in no context outside of socialist propaganda, is the external circumstances that involve no violence or threats of it, are considered to make the decisions one makes nonvoluntary.

>>Laws is no objective guide to neither morality nor justice. That's proven by history.

The law here is that voluntary contracts are valid, and no court of your peers would deem a contract involuntary based on the reasoning you're providing, showing your definition of words is unconventional, and thus misleading in the context of ordinary dialogue.

>>If course it is. You can't first create and support the conditions then absolve yourself from what you've created when from people are forced to sell their freedom to you to survive.

1. Employers did not create conditions that limited the options of job applicants.

2. Your claim that people who choose to work for pay are selling their freedom is an inflammatory characterization to falsely portray workers as victims of employers. It's an utterly dishonorable ideological framework that seeks to demonize the successful to rationalize robbing them.

>>What's the lie? Not forced by violence, but forced by the system the propertied support and have a disproportional influence over.

It's a blatant lie that makes the logical leap that not assenting to mass-socialist expropriation is tantamount to depriving others of their legitimate rights.

It's a degenerate claim based on perverse ideological premises.

>>Not really? Withholding necessities to gain power over peoples labour and make a profit is pretty pathologically sociopathic and abolishing that state of affairs is righteous, not robbery.

It's narcissistic of you to claim someone witholding necessities that belong to them, gives you the right to rob them. You believe what others earned belongs to you, and that you have a right to threaten them with violence to coerce them to forfeit it. It's a fundamentally sociopathic outlook.

For all your baseless claims, based on ideological narratives, of employers "forcing" employers to do things, you are the only one here advocating blatant violence and imposition.

This naked robbery you advocate is what all of your mental gymnastics and leaps of logic is intended to rationalize.

So I went ahead and also bought an MX masters, which is generaaly considered one of the best mice around.

You can turn on free scrolling on the mouse wheel, so that you can smoothly scroll the wheel, and not have those little clicks, you normally get. Only that this doesn't transfer to the scrolling that goes on on the screen - this is still 2-3 lines at a time or whatever.

There's a lot to dislike about magic mouse, but it still does some things way better than the competition - particularly scrolling up and down, but side-to-side scrolling is down-right terrible on normal mice, and an absolute joy on magic mouse.

Let's not give Wilson too much credit. He could have simply kept his campaign promises to keep USA out of WWI. At the start of 1917, all combatants were ready to negotiate peace. Wilson's perfidy on behalf of armaments manufacturers invigorated the bloodlust of the English and (especially) French ruling classes, lengthened the war, and through the "Spanish" (really Kansan) flu epidemic killed tens of millions. Later at Paris, he made a show of resisting their excesses for about a week before he contracted the flu (karma!) and lost the intellectual capacity to affect negotiations.

Some of the deduced insights can be traced in queueing theory: https://kottke.org/19/01/its-time-for-some-queueing-theory As always, the hardwork is in figuring out the right balance given cause and effect (which are time-consuming, if not hard, to deduce in the first place).

The overdoses may have been exaggerated, but people taking the livestock version of ivm were not. You can talk to just about any livestock rancher and they can tell you how all the ivermectin suddenly became sold out everywhere soon after the narrative that it could treat covid went wide.

So first, looking at recent decades' experience doesn't seem to support a "arms profiteering = victory" correlation.

Second, historically... actively curbing private profiteering has generally been considered a crucial part of a successful wartime economy. Post WWII conflicts didn't really have a "war economy" but the principle, IMO, stands.
Raising bug bounties by an order of magnitude goes a long ways. Apple's program is pretty good relative to industry norms, but all of the programs are well below black/gray market prices for exploits, and most are below costs to find, document, and submit an exploit. Google pays less than a month's salary for their most serious Chrome exploits, for example:

Man. I phone, I order, I arrive 30 minutes later, and only then do they start making the pizza, so I sit and stare for 40 minutes, and then I pay my $40 and swear I’ll never do it again, until two weeks later.
Never seen a place with a "default". If you ask for pizza it would be exactly like the root comment said. Even if you were to ask for no-toppings you still have to choose whether you want a cream or tomato base.

I use the MOD Pizza app a lot, if I order MOD pizza in person I’ll go for a branded pizza since choosing ingredients is too troublesome. With the app, it’s easy enough to customize the pizzas being ordered. Couple that with online payment, and it’s just so easy to walk 5 minutes, grab my pizzas off the take out counter, and get home (the only reason to not use it is because pizza isn’t very healthy).

We have one Vietnamese restaurant nearby that doesn’t do app ordering, and a Thai me that does. Suffice it to say, we get lunch from the Thai one alot more than the Vietnamese one because it’s sooo much easier than calling the order in and then fumbling with a credit card to pay once there.

How to Install NetworkMiner in Ubuntu Fedora and Arch Linux

Omicron is waning rapidly. The pandemic will soon end. Which is why these protests are happening now: wait any longer and the opportunity to grift will have slipped by. The far right groups that organized this made serious bank on this. $8M in GoFundMe, to be spent on socially-destructive separatist messaging.
In many cases (I guess it depends on the payment gateway) I get a push notifications which opens a confirmation dialog in my bank's mobile app, where I see the merchant and the amount, and have to confirm it.

I think this is most common with European payment gateways.

I’m honest. You are drawing a false equivalence between very different things.

I’ll make this very simple for you. What you said was deeply disturbing in the same way as it would be for someone to suggest that theft is worse than murder because of their different priorities.

It is possible for your priorities to suck. Perhaps it’s a matter of opinion, but that’s absolutely meaningless. You could say the same about racism, would that make it better? I don’t think so.
I think there is only hesitancy because resources are limited and there are thousands of drugs out there to try. IVM has already received far more attention and resources that it likely deserves and there are lots of other drugs to study and other diseases to cure.

OSI considers it valid[0]. The issue FSF has[1] is a requirement for publishing source code which IMO is very underspecified (i mean FSF's issue, not the license's which seems to not be anything special). I can't see how exactly that makes the license non-free, if anything it ensures the source will be available. The issues DFSG had can be found here[2] but they're also not something that would be an issue in practice for the compiler itself - the most practical issue would be the requirement to provide the code for a year but in practice OWv2 is published via GitHub anyway (and i doubt if it moved anywhere else anyone involved would say "no" if asked to provide sources in case they somehow become inaccessible to the entire internet before a year passes).

Also none of those are "not free enough" (FSF claims so but it doesn't seem to explain why) and they're really about the license itself, not how it applies in practice to OpenWatcom.

That sounds narrow and simplistic to me. Apple is just consumer-grade hardware? How many politicians and CEOs of key American businesses use iPhones? Probably all of them. Is there some secret iPhone model for Donald Trump, hand-patched and reflow soldered by the NSA to remove any NSO vulnerabilities? Does the American government not know about NSO? Are they powerless to stop key American businesses from being hacked by a foreign state? I'm sure there's a lot more to the story that we'll only find out about with a well-placed FOIA in the year 2070 or so.

Google says Android tablets are the future, starts staffing up new division
For some reason, the only previously unpublished piece of info in this long article is in the last paragraph.

When they first presented their case against NSO, Facebook’s lawyers thought they had evidence to disprove one of the Israeli company’s longtime claims — that the Israeli government strictly prohibits the firm from hacking any phone numbers in the United States. In court documents, Facebook asserted it had evidence that at least one number with a Washington area code had been attacked. Clearly someone was using NSO spyware to monitor an American phone number.

But the tech giant didn’t have the entire picture. What Facebook didn’t appear to know was that the attack on a U.S. phone number, far from being an assault by a foreign power, was part of the NSO demonstrations to the F.B.I. of Phantom — the system NSO designed for American law-enforcement agencies to turn the nation’s smartphones into an “intelligence gold mine.”
If the AMM algorithms are the most profitable way to run a market making trading strategy, why wouldn't electronic market makers in "tradfi" not be using something very similar?

If it is not the most profitable, why wouldn't we expect it to lose money over time to competing algorithms?

The only way I could see this working is if the exchange deliberately gave the AMM some kind of advantage, like allowing it to trade much faster than all other participants, or without paying fees. Say, if it were allowed to connect to an exchange like IEX in front of the fiber optic speedbump.

I might be mistaken, but at least in Europe (but I believe it's the same case for the US) reverse engineering proprietary software in order to fix critical bugs, add necessary features or port it somewhere else out of necessity is allowed, provided you don't share the modified program.

Etymology.

Entemology is the study of insects.
And? Okay.

The people who started the GoFundMe are Tamara Lich and B.J. Dichter. Neither of them are truck drivers. They are, however, racist conspiracy theorists.

Tamara Lich's Facebook pages were full of Islamophobia, and conspiracy theories about the "Muslim Brotherhood" operating in Canada, and her own personal activism supporting conspiracy theorists. Tamara Lich is also an official of some kind in Canada's "Maverick Party", a very fringe movement advocating for western separatism.

B.J. Dichter is an activist for the similarly fringe People's Party of Canada, and has described the Conservative Party of Canada as "suffering from the stench of cultural relativism and political Islam".

Patrick King is another important figure in organizing the convoy, and he is a Nazi. He promotes the "great replacement theory", minimizes the Holocaust, and argues that Jewish bankers are controlling politicians.

Dave Steenberg is another organizer whose brain has been rotted out by Facebook conspiracy theory, and who fantasizes about COVID mask mandates implementors being hauled before war-crimes tribunals. He's also shared the logo of the Soldiers of Odin, a totally! totally peaceful group that just happens to like Nazi imagery and "patrolling" neighborhoods to keep the wrong kind of people out. (The actual Soldiers of Odin don't seem to be involved, though).

This "trucker convoy" has been condemned by trucker associations in Canada and seems to not really have that many truckers involved (mostly pickup trucks).

Convoy members have been seen with US Confederate flags, Canadian flags with swastikas scrawled on them, Trump 2024 flags, and so on. Stickers, t-shirts, and other merch of Trudeau being hanged are popular. (I'm sure this is just a little political disagreement!)

They've terrorized towns that they've rolled through, sometimes invoking upside-down "sovereign citizen" legal logic, like telling people they're trespassing on public property. Ottawa residents have seen many protests, but everyone agrees this protest is one of the most disorderly and aggressive they've ever seen. Including, apparently, harassing workers at a soup kitchen, of all things.

On social media, videos of non-white Canadians have often been appropriated and taken out of context to imply there is broad support for this convoy among all ethnicities.

There are some non-fascist people who may oppose mandates and show up for that reason. But this all definitely started as a ridiculous grift by nativists, conspiracy theorists, white supremacists, and literal Nazis, and it's mostly attracted people with obnoxious attitudes.

Disabilities aside, I believe than anyone can eventually understand anything learned by science, if they and their teacher are willing to put in the effort.

I'm convinced that the NSA is actively thwarting computer security to make their job easy in the long term.

I believe that mankind was almost wiped out 14000 years ago during the Younger Dryas disaster. Echoes of this are recorded as the great flood, and fire from the sky.

I believe that a computing fabric based on 4x4 bit look up tables clocked in alternate phases (like a chess board) can be an Exaflop computing platform offering near perfect security, fault tolerance, and scalability.

I believe capability based security is the only way to end all of our grief with computer security issues. We won't be safe until it's been widely deployed for a few years and all the bugs are worked out in the microkernels.

I believe that inertia might be quantized, and if so, it might be possible to take advantage of this to build spacecraft that don't need exhaust to work.

I believe that Electromagnetic Vector Potential is real, not just a mathematical convenience for physics theories. It may be possible to exploit this for some interesting real world applications. I really, REALLY want a detector like a SQUID to play with to find those applications.

I believe that cold fusion works, it's just hard to replicate.

I believe that Pascal is a far better programming language than C, especially as realized in Free Pascal.

I believe that no modern OS is anywhere near as safe as IBM DOS on an IBM XT with dual floppy drives, with a write protected boot disk. The machine was so simple, there's really no place for malware to hide. The only way to get past this high water mark is capability based security.
