This is just incoherent rambling trying to say that Russia is good and everyone is brainwashed...

It feels like old long communist speeches where nothing of substance was ever said.

If I were to summarize it (completely disagree with contents):

... western media galvanized everyone against russia with fake news and ukraine propaganda...

... western leaders try to depict putin as unhinged but wrong somehow ...

... western world values bad - "rootlessness, spiritual emptiness, and angst" ...

... western world is heading towards totalitarianism because of how they portray the war ...

... some whataboutism about iraq and afghanistan war ... (like those would justify russia's invasion)

... war in Ukraine is not about putin's derangeness but 'realpolitik' ... (as if...)

... war was inevitable because russia's interests ...

... russia's security interests were ignored - Ukrainian neutrality, and demilitarisation, probably NATO withdrawal from former warsaw pact countries too ... (if they had it would have been much easier now to take over, also contradicts itself since it already said war was innevitable)

... should stop fighting back because people die ... (and probably because they're losing)
No. No one is entitled to another humams time, energy, and effort.
The form factor is nice too. Desktop PCs really are comically large, even if you go out of your way to make one as small as possible.
> I'd be worried about perverse incentives. The company is now incentivized to make the build process more difficult, or at least not incentivized to try to make the build process easier for end users, which goes against the point of open source.

Open Source doesn't imply anything on the code. It assumes to benefit from a wide range of people (and outsiders views).
Open Source projects, which would reject PRs on improving the build process will suffer contributions in the long run, risking their acceptance in the community.
It should aid itself. At least this is the philosophy I proclaim myself :)
Yeah I'd like to think that too, but the article mentions in its first paragraph that this aid was announced by the 'Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian.'

So in this case it doesn't seem like they're different.

This article just goes to show that, when people hear about "computer science", they think that it only refers to actual hardware computers. Case in point, the reference about "many [...] innovations around computer architecture".

Computer science is about the mechanized manipulation of symbols. Turing proposed a fundamental model to reason about this. He wasn't trying to glorify tabulating machines into mathematical ones; rather, he was solving the Entscheidungsproblem, like a lot of other people. In the circle of logicians, philosophers and mathematicians that cared for this issue (the proto-computer scientists, in a sense), he has never been "obscure".

My results:

Video & sound: labeled all correctly as fake/real.
Text: did not even try to read.

My comments:

For video, the biggest tell for me is the mouth. Just ~5 seconds of footage was enough usually. The lips shift in size and appearance or move way too little, for example.

For audio, also a few seconds was usually enough to make a decision. The intonation of both Biden and Trump is way off in the fakes if you've spent some time listening to them during debates, interviews, etc. It has hints of the real voice but to me the fakes sounded quite a bit off. The curious fact is that I haven't listened to anything said by Trump since he left office but his characteristic voice is still very clearly embedded in my head. I guess humans are quite good at memorizing and recognizing voices. Biden to me sounds drunk/high in the fakes LOL.

Overall, all of the fakes felt pretty easy to spot.

Anybody with knowledge in the field: is this the current "state of the art" in terms of deepfakes or better results can be achieved?
It's because `f = new Number(0)` is a boxed number (therefore it's an object), and `!f` calls ToBoolean on this object which unconditionally returns true (https://tc39.es/ecma262/#table-toboolean-conversions). `!-f` first applies unary minus, which first performs a ToNumber on the f object (which returns unboxed 0), that's negated to -0, and then ToBoolean of -0 is false.
> Catch is that if you invoke that the other party can switch it around and demand that you accept that pay for your share.

I'm kinda curious how the low-level details of that work out. Do you have some sort of 3rd-party service which temporarily holds one founder's offer and gives the other founder N days to make a decision? Or is there some other mechanism to prevent the founder initiating a buy out from backing out ("no you see, I wasn't actually serious about buying you out!").
Your point stands about tips being considered offensive, but isn't avoiding that rationale part of why tips almost always follow the service in question? I understood one possible reason being that people want their (hopefully diligent and appropriately generous) service to be seen as the default, rather than something worthy of an additional reward for any special treatment.
Probably because Studio/Professional Headphones come with long coords by default.
I don't understand what you're trying to argue here? If a government official wants to arrest me, of course I'm willing to argue to avoid that. Not sure what you mean with the gift cards either, are you referring to some scam going on in US? I don't live in the US so please consider how hard it is for me to figure what you mean.

I had a Jehovah's witness visit me once, and unlike most people I did talk to her. She made some arguments, I counter-argued that I don't believe things without a proof, she asked me if I believe that air exists, and she followed my confirmation with the statement "but you can't see it" - to which I responded that I actually can see both the air directly (just like you can see foil laminate if you stack it into multiple layers) as well as indirectly through various experiments. She had no response to that, other than handing me a flyer, which I accepted.
Not according to Tim Cook:

> There's a confusion about China. The popular conception is that companies come to China because of low labor cost. I'm not sure what part of China they go to, but the truth is China stopped being the low-labor-cost country many years ago. And that is not the reason to come to China from a supply point of view. The reason is because of the skill, and the quantity of skill in one location and the type of skill it is.

Of course, he would say nice things about China like this so I take it with a grain of salt myself.

Which sounds kinda ridiculous to me given that the company had $52k in the bank and had been operating at a loss for an extended period of time.
> I have no control over what other people do, think or say. What other stance can I take?

Of course - individualism in a political sense means the rejection of collective action. It usually boils down to the belief that people's political actions should be limited to financial transactions - solving climate change by individuals recycling, solving food insecurity by individuals donating, that sort of thing. I knew you were being hyperbolic, but a lack of familiarity with institutional or systemic change made me think you might be missing that option. That's not a criticism; it's really common in the US.

> Sadly, those who pile that sand on these folks' heads are never held to account.

Yeah, I was considering saying in my original comment that targeting those types of people has been a conservative strategy for years now, but figured it was political enough already. It seems its easy to switch people over from "nominally anti racism but also anti change" to "nominally anti racist but practically anti anti racist, ie pro racist" by getting them to support counter protest movements escalating in extreme from "all lives matter" and "its OK to be white" up to believing in the white genocide conspiracy theory.

> I suspect that many of those with their "heads in the sand" would be less inclined to ignore the intolerance if the sand shovelers (dump truck operators?) were shown for the venal, cynical scum they are.

Unfortunately people aren't very easy to reason out of positions they've dug themselves into. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink, as they say.
There is also "uplink", which is Half-Life: Uplink, the demo of the game. Those are several levels that were originally part of the retail game but were cut and then used as a demo.
> io_uring relies on a pool of independent kernel threads performing operations on buffers

Do note that this setup was rewritten at kernel version 5.13 or something like that, and the current model seem to be some sort of hybrid variant of kernel and userspace threads. From what I gather it was a huge improvement compared to how it was before.
That would certainly make sense, but the author hasn't followed that pattern consistently so far - e.g. the row for C doesn't list the compiler or architecture.
But you are forgetting where to print. The classic "Hello World" program requires you to Print to a terminal not to a file. The fact that the terminal and a file can be used interchangeably in *nix system is not the responsibility of the program. Likewise, Printing "hello world" to my 3d printer is not the purpose either. My "hello world" program is meant to Assure the minimum possible feedback that the toolchain is working as expected and being called by your program is not a part of that purpose.
GP was talking about performance not marketshare.
Obligatory Roger Sterling quote [1]:

> I don't know if anyone's ever told you that half the time this business comes down to 'I don't like that guy.'

What articles like these fail to realize or fail to point to is that a lot of your work outcomes come down to whether your manager likes you, their manager likes you and your coworkers like you. This isn't universal of course. There are some people who are disliked but clearly brilliant enough for it to matter. These people are the exception not th enorm.

At Google, there was a meme in performance review that goes something like:

> This project would've failed without this person. It failed anyway but it definitely would've without them.

You can take the same set of circumstances and interpret them differently based on who you like and who you don't. Project fails? Someone you like did what they could for the team. Someone you don't didn't contribute enough. Project succeeds? Person you like was a key reason why. Person you don't wasn't.

So when it comes to 1:1s, if your manager likes you you're more likely to be someone they advocate for, extol the virtues of your accomplishments and so on. If your manager is liked the more likely their opinions are to carry weight.

So how to get the most value of your 1:1s? Figure out if your manager likes you and figure out if their managers likes them.

Yes, you're correct in everything you say -- it's a matter of what is emphasised and what is downplayed.

a) I guess I was pointing out that a lot of people tout big renewable numbers when a good deal of those numbers currently include (1) hydropower (some of the mega projects have drawn a lot of controversy, as I'm sure you know, from displacing people to changing ecosystems to causing resource conflicts with those downstream of the mega-dam) and (2) bioenergy (we should be using fertile soil to grow food crops).

b) Wind and solar are variable outputs whereas every other widely used energy tech is predictable (if you ignore resource wars). So wind and solar must always include a discussion of batteries (batteries are not "green") or peaker plants (which are either coal or nat-gas or nuclear).

c) Wind and solar are so new we still haven't figured out the whys and wherefores of dealing with the waste materials when they reach the end of their lifecycle.

d) Power density of hydro is terrible: https://phe.rockefeller.edu/docs/PowerDensity_Final120815.pd...

So as wind and solar scale there are a bunch of challenges that will have to be overcome for them to become proven technologies the way fossil fuels are.
Then let's have those 2 or 3 documented init functions. That's not perfect, but still much better than spraying different (undocumented) copies of the init code everywhere, that have to be located and adjusted every time somebody refactors something.
yeah but this demo doesn't rely on some shitcoin
The price alone is turning me back into a Linux user after 20 years. I simply cannot justify 6800 Swiss Francs (neighborhood of 7000 Euros or USD) for the max CPU/RAM and a 2TB SSD, and I cannot justify getting any less because it's soldered-down and not in any way upgradeable or repairable. Not to mention, even with AppleCare+ it's only guaranteed to work for 3 years (in Europe, I know you Americans can get long-term AppleCare subscriptions, but we don't have that option here).

This is a tragedy for the future of computing. It might as well be encased in resin. Great performance, but I won't spend car money on something I can't upgrade or repair.
You should also have readme/docs of how to run, debug and tests given project. If you don’t then lobby for seniors to create such docs.
My Brazilian friend asked me to recommend her a laptop given her budget. It was certainly an interesting experience. Not only the laptops were much more expensive than they would be in other parts of the world, but also they were older models, with HDDs and 4GB of RAM instead of more up to date models going with SSDs and 8GB of RAM (or more).
The most important caveat is that the side project already generated revenue when the author still had a full time job.

Trying to turn a project with 0 revenue into something, while having no fixed income is most likely going to fail, and ruin you in all sorts of ways.

> Open Source doesn't imply anything on the code.

No, but if we imagine the incentive taken to the extreme, where you have an arcane build process that makes it essentially impossible for any person who's not on the original team to build the software, then the software devolves to effectively just a source-available project, since the users have no way of actually building their own versions, which also precludes being able to make any modifications even on their own forks.

I guess the major difference vs truly only source-available is that you can still copy and paste chunks of code to use in other projects?
This is just nihilistic cynicism. Both Trump and Biden speak in easily understood sentences. I would tend to disagree with Trump more often than not, but that doesn't mean he isn't a clear communicator. Biden is different in that he choses his words more carefully. There are many questions where it is better for him and the US to not answer a question, so he won't.

But nothing about either person's sentences is 'incoherent'. And 'stretching the truth too far' is something entirely different. Incoherent sentences, by definition, cannot be 'stretching the truth', because they convey no meaning.

I recommend to read the Quantum Fourier Transform: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_Fourier_transform It's perhaps one of the task where is more clear that a quantum computer can be faster than a classical computer.

(Also, Quantum Fourier Transform is the key part of the method to use quantum computers to factorize numbers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shor%27s_algorithm )
Have you tried building any open source projects? It's not exactly a good landscape to begin with.
While seemingly intuitive, the idea of a QFT field as a probability field over space is not correct. It usually comes as a shock to anybody entering QFT when they finally realize the actual "probability space" is infinitely larger..

So as a programmer's example you might have an idea that to simulate a QFT you could have an array of floats over space to describe your "electron field", and you draw in values to reflect a probability distribution and you'll write some update rules to describe how this evolves in time. But this won't work, because it's not how nature works.

What you need is that electron field array (and a photon field array to make any kind of non-trivial observations), but in 4D (space + time), and you need to iterate over all possible values in all array bins for all fields, calculate a magic number for each configuration, and weigh all these magic numbers together to figure out the actual probabilities for any configuration.

Even for a 16x16x16x16 array, that is 65536 bins, even with only 2 levels in each bin this is 2^65536 combinations.

All of practical QFT (theoretical, perturbative or non-perturbative lattice methods) is about doing this calculation with (obviously radical) simplifications.

That we can do these enormous simplifications and still get usable results, can be a very good sign that the underlying reality is in fact simpler than what QFT implies but nobody has figured this out yet.

"The CERN Council also expresses its support to the many members of CERN’s Russian scientific community who reject this invasion."

Very important we don't isolate those that have nothing to do with it. Banning Russian artists, scientists and musicians because they happen to be Russian is just wrong and will push them into an anti-west war. Renaming Russian products or throwing out all Vodka is Russo-phobia. It might make you feel like you are doing something but you are hurting the wrong people. Only people specifically connected to the invasion and Putin should be Sanctioned.

The IOC banning disabled athletes from competing is also despicable. I understand that there is some state involvement when it comes to the Olympics but they could have dealt with that. Like letting the athletes compete without any government representatives etc.

This is Putin's not Russia's war and it should be labeled as that.
Interesting bug you found!

It sounds our sensibilities are similar regarding cli and tool usage. This is a side note, but as someone who used to use "Bash strict mode" in all my scripts, I'm now a bit bearish on `set -e`, mainly due to the subtle caveats.

We are human and prefer elegance, so enough will continue to try to unify models anyway. I don’t buy that we cannot understand nature but this model dependent realism is fine as a practical way of working until we do understand it.
> That's basically the point of the program.

The point of hello.c is to serve as demonstration to students of the language of what a very basic program looks like, and how to use the toolchain to get it to run.

When I don't have anything work-related to report, there are no concerns on either side, and there are no situational changes, we just chat with my manager for the whole half-hour about various life topics.

Sometimes it may bring to memory something related to work, which we can discuss. Sometimes it will be completely unrelated to work for the whole meeting, but I think there is still value in that. It helps us build a better relationship and reveals more about who we are and how we think and helps just generally "tune" ourselves to each other.
Definitely something we're going to be considering as a future currency corridor! We've heard similar feedback on fees!
Short answer: immediate mode architecture versus tile-based deferred rendering architecture. The latter is designed for power saving.

It's not apples to apples comparison; to get the most out of each of those two you'll have to write two different rendering paths in code.

Sorry to disappoint you guys but the Chinese Red Cross is just another Chinese government department, more specifically, according to Chinese domestic laws, it is a Chinese government department with Sub-Provincial (Ministerial) level.

It is current President is Chen Zhu who was China's Minister of Health, he is also a current vice-chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, which according to the wikipedia is "the highest organ of state power and the legislature of China". Chinese Red Cross's current honorary President is Wang Qishan, the vice President of China & the right hand man of Xi.
