I did much worse than that, but also found the silent clips the hardest.

I did much better on them once I realized that the real speakers were much more likely to look around the room, or especially down toward the podium.
With a simple protocol on top it can be quite resilient. The database is updated only by a group of 3 admins, who perform the update once a week. When one admin initiates an update, the other two ask him the passphrase. If the answer is "tomato" (means "I'm compromised"), the update is rejected and they find another admin. Regular users are generally safe: the laws dont punish downloaders, only uploaders. You can expand the admin team to 5 members, so RIAA (or whoever stalks torrent sites) would have to compromise 2 admins simultaneously. Don't forget that the admins can be in different countries, making their legal pursuit a nightmare.
This is super sketchy. Even the modal you describe is misleading:

>> “External links help with self-service opt outs and provide visibility into where your info is posted online, but are not always perfect.”

That is 100% misleading when you are linking to every data broker regardless of whether or not someone is in their database.
I've been with Android since the beginning (though Apple everything else). But I'm just tired of needing a new phone every year just to get ok performance.
A few weeks back I got a free iPhone 6, and was amazed at its performance. When I compared it to my OnePlus 2 phone from a year later, it's night and day performance wise.
My next phone will be an iPhone, no question.

I think the discussion of computer stuff here is much better than the physics discussion. It is a website about startups after all.

I only know a tiny bit of modern physics, and in a sort of backdoor fashion through electrical engineering, and even I can spot the occasional "this guy learned quantum physics via Star Trek" post.
REPowerEU: European action for more affordable, secure and sustainable energy
Yeah, 100% agree with you. It takes away a lot of enjoyability from your free time. And it also simply eliminates a lot of activities, like playing pretty much any team sport.

In my case, I like playing basketball, and I can't go to a friendly game with friends when I'm on-call, unless there's more people to rotate for the game(so if I have to leave it's not that big of a deal for the rest)

I didn't mean that being on-call it's great, far from it. I just think it's a reasonable way to compensate the employee.

It sucks to be on-call, but someone has to be. The right people have to be notified of the right alerts and not just notify everyone affected. Also, if it's been a night call, they usually allow the employee to come in late.

I think we as a collective have "dropped the ball". Doctors do "on call" on premise, getting paid every hour, or have ample wait times. We don't have any of those

In software and product development, we are so often trying to figure out everything about the work. Sometimes before we even start the work. This is a complex and possibly impossible task. What if there was a way to break up the work. Then find the top priority items, work on those first, then move on to the next work. There is and Just in Time Requirements are a huge part of it.
Yeah, this line of reasoning did not work too well vis a vis the Japanese and Pearl Harbor.

The ICs aren't made in USA, I doubt the passives are either (conveniently not mentioned -- glossed over by saying "USA distributors"). Sure, it's assembled in the US, but it isn't built of parts made in the USA.

Though, most of these parts were first made in the USA so there's no doubt we couldn't do it if we wanted.
To my knowledge none of these side-channels, even the original ones several years ago, have been exploited practically in the wild. IMHO gathering the amount of detail needed to attempt such an attack, as exemplified by the demos that have been given, would itself be prohibitively difficult. Thus the impact of yet another one remains negligible to a personal computer user, but of course the cloud providers would be super-paranoid about it.

It's worth noting that the memory protection scheme, introduced with the 286, was never intended to be a strong security barrier, but instead a means of isolating bugs and making them easier to debug.
So what is dark matter?

This thing that keeps galaxies bound that we cannot see but can only observe the effects… I think the hunt for it will push us into new territory.

GPUs aren't particularly good at vector graphics rendering especially at smaller sizes. You'd want a CPU emulator of the GPU code and that seems strictly worse than doing it native.
Hi Divyesh,

Greetings from Melbourne, Australia.

We are looking for a webapp specialist to create for us a video capture app for our competition recording. Imagine gymnastics, 13year old balance beam. This section has 15 competitors. We want to be able to record the entire section, but also be able to set in and out markers so we can separate out individual videos for parents to buy. We also use HandbrakeCLI to encode to HVEC to redce file size. We use Black magic Ultrastudio 3G recorder as a caputure interface, but looking to go NDI in the future. I have the design worked out and happy to chat through it with you some time if you'd like to know more. This is just one of a number of apps we want to develop for our bigger system. We would have you work with out lead developer who has built the database platform, as we want this Capture App to integrate with the database closely. Thank you. Conrad experiencebeing@gmail.com
Yep. The LG 5Ks are the same way too. Moreover, if you have an Intel MacBook Pro you have to use ports on opposite sides of the laptop if you have 2 displays. You can’t plug them in on the same side.
The interesting thing is that the 24-core threadripper is posting a score of 20k and the 64-core one is posting 25k. Whatever Geekbench is doing doesn't appear to be something you'd normally run on one of these monster core count CPUs.
Not only that - the price increase from the iPhone 8 to the iPhone X, adjusted for inflation, was sightly more than 20% and people still bought iPhones.

The most recent ones are even more expensive.

Anecdotal, but white noise sends my tinnitus wild. If the white noise is loud enough, you won't necessarily hear the change until it's turned off, but after that my ears are positively screaming.

Same is true of other kinds of background noise, such as computer fans, air conditioners or driving in a car. A while ago, based on some self study, I tried to 'fix' my tinnitus by targeting it with specific frequencies rather than noise, and that provided temporary relief by actually reducing the perception of the tinnitus briefly (like 5 minutes). But white noise has always increased it.
Money is fungible. When you buy oil from a country, that country can buy arms or materials to manufacture arms with that money.

If Ukraine housed all people, I'd say shoot down everything. It doesn't, and so (as the thinking goes) the world must simultaneously support the nascent democracy and also attempt to contain the violence. Otherwise, we really do risk escalation to WW3.

There are treaties in place for retaliation, but no such treaty existed for Ukraine.

A good book on these games is Strategy of Conflict.

I would really love an ultrawide for the extra space and immersive gaming option. But Retina display has spoiled me a lot. I regret getting used to a 4K configuration scaled to 150% which is effectively 2560x1440 display with higher PPI.
The main difference is that it's a lot easier to crash GPU drivers (eg with a 100% busy loop) or slow down UI rendering. There are shader verifiers to avoid some of this.
> It seems like the biggest and most present problem with marijuana is that most don't understand that smoking marijuana is just as bad as smoking cigarettes[0].

Where in that article does it say that smoking marijuana is just as bad as smoking cigarettes? Marijuana smoke is not good for the lungs and it contains carcinogens, but that doesn't mean it's as bad as tobacco. For example, another source[0] says: "Whether smoking marijuana causes lung cancer, as cigarette smoking does, remains an open question."

You made the choice about bringing someone like Floyd into this. you thought that there was an equivalence to make.

Here’s the thing: no one said Floyd wasn’t an excon, and his crime did severely limit his options in life.

It is inescapable though that if you bring in Floyd for his “fame” that you are comparing the thing that made them famous: being murdered vs being anti-Semitic

> Greece going default, is it any different ?

Greece used Euros, so the default in Greece was borne by everyone in the euro zone. The ECB got all the reputation of the Bundesbank in terms of inflation fighters. Portugal & Ireland for instance got pulled in because of Greece, due to the shared currency.

The Russian situation might have some lenders sort of leaning in, depending on the politics of the process. India & Russia did some sort of hard peg on the Ruble for debt (India owed USSR, to be exact), instead of letting it float in Rubles vs USD.
grsecurity has a vested interest in having (or being seen to have) better security than upstream.

Maybe upstream is able to work with hundreds of different and competing companies and thousands of different people and clashing personalities and opinions, but they just happen to irrationally refuse to treat grsecurity fairly.

Or maybe it's the simpler explanation that has more obvious motives.
There are rules, and consensus of action among allies is as important as anything when dealing with world powers.

You want a 2nd HDMI port, probably because you already own HDMI cables by the drawer full. That's a valid something.

However, it's not like you have to replace your monitors because of only one HDMI port. There are cables that go from TB4 to HDMI without dongles. Yes, you would need a new something instead of the something you already have.

Do you really know what the cost of adding a 2nd HDMI port to a system is? I do not. I do know it will be much more than the cost of the actual port connector itself. There's a new hole to be added to the case. There's more robotically soldered points to connect the new port to the system. Of the way the system is laid out on the board, is there enough bandwidth to supply signals to all of the ports? I have no idea the level of complexities involved in deciding what ports are available with the bandwidth of the system, but I do not for a second think that I could do it better.
Honest question, wouldnt putting things to good use mean that old hardware would be kept running? I think your first and last paragraphs seem to be contradictory.
> Copernican revolution

The guy who did the hard work was Kepler. Copernicus's model of the solar system was just idle speculation. Also widely off the mark (it had epicycles, lots of thyem, twice as many as the Ptolemaic model [1]). Kepler sifted through the mountains of astronomical observations made by Tycho Brahe over many decades, and used the latest cutting edge math tools available (logarithms) to come up with his 3 laws.

The true revolution is science was obviously Isaac Newton. But if he had some giants on whose shoulders to stand, they were Kepler and Brahe, not Galileo and Copernicus.

[1] http://tofspot.blogspot.com/2013/08/the-great-ptolemaic-smac...
Yes. They did. E.g.

"4. The Russian Federation, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the United States of America reaffirm their commitment to seek immediate United Nations Security Council action to provide assistance to Ukraine, as a non-nuclear-weapon State party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, if Ukraine should become a victim of an act of aggression or an object of a threat of aggression in which nuclear weapons are used;"

We've had plenty of nuclear threats at this point; fear of escalating to nuclear war is precisely what limits Ukraine's ability to get aid. A condemnation, as the US raised, is not "action."
I found that in quick search for a screenshot of the context menu. I thought I remembered "do it" from a ParcPlace Smalltalk implementation.

Excellent read. I agree 100%. I wish all Open Source projects operated this way. It would dramatically improve the number of Open Source developers who could make a living doing it, and massively reduce the burnouts and depressions.
I didn't see display resolution (or the model of HMD) mentioned in the video. I'm using Varjo Aero, which has 2880x2720 per eye, which is almost quapruple (per eye) compared to Valve Index. I think this resolution is enough for a good VR experience; pixels are almost invisible, and even small text is readable. However, HL Alyx doesn't run at 90 fps on full resolution.
> This rabbit hole in the wikipedia has led me to a dead-end explanation

Trying to teach yourself physics by reading wikipedia is like trying to learn how to program by reading the C++ standard. It's a fine resource, but not for that. You need an introductory physics textbook, not an encyclopedia. Griffith's Introduction to Electrodynamics is a classic choice.

> those iron filings are pulled by virtual photons created by the magnet

No. Virtual particles are part of a notational scheme for carrying out certain computations in quantum field theory. They're not particles, and they're definitely not involved in classical electromagnetism.

> I've concluded that magnetism is an unexplained phenomenon, just like gravity: we have accurate formulas, but nobody knows what those formulas describe.

The formulas, ultimately, describe the relationship between our observations. This is the only sense in which we ever explain anything, and a sense in which magnetism and gravity are both very well-explained.

> For intuitive understanding, I see a magnet as a well, except that this well can be moved around and has two poles.

You should not try to understand electromagnetism intuitively yet. You haven't built the right intuitions, and to do that you first need to tear down your wrong ones.

Hence my care to distinguish a religious taboo from a religiously derived moral objection.
AMD is supposed (or does) have very good branch predictors. What's interesting to me is they don't do a re-steering of the wrong prediction well before later instructions are issued to the back end.

Maybe their BTB is that good that they didn't see it worth investing in the control logic for it.
and it did - for those technologies that became cheaper as a result. For other things that tech didn't increase the supply of, you end up paying more.

If you did not have inflation - or had deflation even, like in the case of bitcoin - everything would "become cheaper", but it would make certain types of goods/services scarcer (since they'd be paid less and less for doing the same labour due to the deflation, and so would choose to stop doing it at some point).
Netflix loves to say that they don’t do paid product placement and weasel out by doing product placement paid for by joint promotions (stranger things) or paid to “non-Netflix”-Netflix production (or what the hell the call it, when they don’t have exclusive rights to their Netflix exclusives) (any Korean show)

I think this is about product placement. And I just don’t understand why Netflix hasn’t begun doing dynamic product placement. It’s the weaseling out way of showing advertisements.
If we accept that philosophically, how does it work in practice? Does the government provide a Cloudflare-like service that we all put our sites behind?
Webtorrent support has been added to Vuze and libtorrent (backs clients like deluge and qBittorrent), so there is some ability for mainstream swarms to interact with webtorrent peers.
That’s only if you see it as a people in need problem. If you see it as a drug addiction problem, UBI could actually make things worse.
I don't think China will be quick to help them evade sanctions. There will certainly be some of that, but Chinese banks are already cutting ties with Russian businesses for fear of secondary sanctions.

>The pro-AMD anti-Intel commentary on the internet got completely out of control for a while.

Not really. It was entirely justified, but things have changed. Prior to Alder Lake Intel really was just plain worse than AMD in most respects.

Processor vendors have leapfrogged each other many, many times before. A new architecture is supposed to beat everything else on the market. Recent years have been weird because Intel bungled 10nm at about the same time AMD bungled Bulldozer. We are getting back to normal.
For the folks who are jumping straight into the comment section to post your spicy takes on Google ads, the more interesting part of this article is in the second half, where it talks at length on being able to tease out actual causal inference, which I think is worth a read.

Yes, it wasn't the world's only RSS client, but the existence of it, along with Google's backing, had somewhat stifled innovations. So there weren't that many options to choose from at the point.

There were a few reasons I could think of why people were upset:

Reader started in the era of when Google was generous. It gave away 1GB of email storage and free Email service for your own domain. It felt like a betrayal to end the service like this. There was the same reaction when Google announced the end of Gsuite legacy free edition.

Finally, Google essentially declared to the entire world that RSS was dead. Although Google claimed that usage of Reader had fallen, the users who continued to use it do get values from it and thus they very much disagree with that assessment. It wasn't like Google was a small business that had fallen on hard time.
I think it depends on precedence.

When we went into Afghanistan and Iraq, Russia kept from directly confronting us. There was an issue once with Turkey and Russian planes around Syria once or twice, but rarely got into direct line of fire of each other and kept things going though proxies.

If we go beyond proxies that would breach precedent protocol and would be uncharted strategy.
Even if we use iPhone mostly for Whatsapp/email, for us with bigger fingers, typing on smaller screen is more typo-prone. Annoying.

iPhone 12 Mini is still acceptable. iPhone SE? Nahh... pass.

That's the wrong approach. When I want a centered 27" rectangle, I use software to put a 27" rectangle in the spot where I want it. I never fullscreen anything, and put secondary things around the edges, the way one would use extra monitors. There are some minor software issues to work through, it definitely requires some customization in the window manager department, but it's worth it imo.

The XHTML spec is obsolete and irrelevant. It’s replaced by the HTML spec using XML syntax. (W3C classes it as a Superseded Recommendation.)

But tbody was optional even in XHTML 1.0 Strict; quoting https://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd,

<!ELEMENT table
(caption?, (col*|colgroup*), thead?, tfoot?, (tbody+|tr+))>

I’m pretty sure that this will be the reason it’s optional in the HTML spec, since there’d be no point in it being optional otherwise, since it’s not attainable in the HTML syntax.
