Like, people can’t see the difference between “telemetry” done by supermarkets by counting an approximate number of visitors vs the full-on knowing your childhood best-friends’ secret crush on you. There is eons of difference between the two.
I’ve been using the better of this for, gosh, must be about two years now. It has been so much fun to use. I read papers and annotate them on my iPad, and it syncs up to my laptop without any problems. I recently considered turning on WebDAV to sync my growing collection of documents, but Zotero has been so useful to my workflow, that I decided to buy some storage from them. I am more than happy to give them a few bucks to keep working on this awesome product. It has significantly simplified my research workflow, and it is so valuable to me for that.
By analogy: "Given that quantum mechanics was invented in the 20th century, I think we can say that QM works just fine without quantum mechanics."

How would Musk be in any better position if a major part of a spacecraft, launch vehicle etc came from Russia?

If anything, he'd be worse off, as it's easier to make special exceptions for government / intergovernment projects (see: ISS).
> I honestly don't understand why complex numbers make people so angry. They are just a way of writing a linear map / element of a particular vector space

I agree. The jump between rational numbers and real numbers is enormous on many different levels. The jump between reals and complex is about as small as can be.
I love how Marco just feels like throwing money at one of life's problems is the best solution. I think he would be the first to tell you the role of luck in his success. Yes, he worked long hard hours at Tumblr, and eventually that paid off financially when Tumblr was sold. He was smart to scratch an itch when the iPhone first came out by releasing Instapaper, and smart to realize when it was time to sell it. He was smart to realize his itch for a good podcast player might be universal. So I think he's an incredible businessman who is really only limited by his unwillingness to yoke himself to a corporation.

His use of Obj-C and PHP are just as pragmatic to me. He's an expert at Obj-C and possibly at PHP, and why change? Let Swift mature, see if Obj-C becomes deprecated, and then move on. He can obviously learn new languages since he's dabbled in Rust etc.

I do wish ATP focused more on tech stuff and less on how to live your best life on Fire Island. But I enjoy it every week.

Of course the "attack" is easy to avoid. But you first have to know about it. Mozilla should not be planting such landmines.
This all seems a little misguided. All standard dice have opposite sides adding up to the same number and are otherwise evenly distributed, so a bias would have to be quite noticeable to skew the results on average.

Dice that tend to roll high/low because of imperfections basically don't exist.
yeah the pay of the higher ups does not seem to be tied to success of the browser or the relationship they have with their users; endlessly depressing TBH
(I've been upvoting you because this is an interesting point of view).

At this point, one must ask: what is not art with such a broad definition? And is a definition that excludes nothing useful?

Is it enough for something to be art that some person, living or dead, at some point thought it was art? I know a lot of people think it is, but I really struggle with accepting this definition. Mainly because it's used to let things in that I -- subjectively, in my own opinion -- absolutely dislike as lazy crap. And no, I don't consider being lazy an art form.
Random number generator enhancements for Linux 5.17 and 5.18
Your argument assumes the malicious submitter is honest about their identity online. We can't assume that. Instead, we have to assume that all source, regardless or how "open" it is, could be malicious. Only once it has been properly audited by the many eyes of the community should we consider placing any trust in it.

If people had confidence in the ecosystem because they thought they could blindly trust code from random strangers, then it was misplaced to begin with.

I have a sharp mx c301w color laser printer at the office and it's frankly just great. Scanning, printing and whatever just work.

At home I have an Epson ET-M3170, it's not a laser but one of those epson thing where you don't have cartride but just empty bottles of ink into a tank when it's empty, and it works great too (it's much slower, but then again it's a lot cheaper).

It's mostly inkjet printers that are always terrible.
Mindgeek was the proposed enforcer of digital age verification in a previous incarnation of this bill.

Well for one, it lets you have a store with txs and accounts for free with little code! It’s like a framework for money, and would let you trade items across games so for example I could buy a gun in CoD for a party hat in RuneScape or whatever.
Hello Dr. Teller...(page 21)

> These various programs and policy recommendations came to a head in President Reagan's March 23 "Star Wars" speech. Reagan had been interested in high-tech defense systems from the years he was Governor of California. his interest in this area grew during the 1980 Presidential electoral primaries with the advice of Dr. Edward Teller (Lawrence Livermore Laboratory). In late 1981, Teller met with Lt. Gen. Daniel Graham (US Army, ret.) and Karl Bendetsen (Hoover Institution) at the Heritage Foundation, where the three formed a small group on space policy and continued to offer advice to Reagan.
Only skimmed the article, it seems entirely about non-English speaking patients, not doctors.
in Intel case, working hard to improve yield is more profitable. Intel didn't make a profitable yield in 10nm process thus endless cycle of cpu release in 14nm.
The point of the post you're replying to is that you cannot simultaneously act like 'free software' has one canonical definition which the software definitely violates, while 'open source software' is the nebulous one which doesn't necessarily mean anything more than its availability in source form. If 'open source' doesn't have to mean what everyone who actually uses it means by it, then neither does 'free software'; if 'open source' can just mean source-available then 'free software' can just mean software for $0; if advertising your software as 'free' is false advertising if you're explicitly violating the FSF's definition, then advertising your software as 'open source' is false advertising if you're explicitly violating the OSI's definition.
How much money are you willing to blow on a night out?

That should be your limit for whatever you buy on eBay, the most fun I ever have on a night out is around $200.

Just bought a film camera, and a bunch of film. Between that and trying to get the photos developed, I probably wasted over $200, Camera never worked. Film didn't develop.

Such is life
Then you can use a helpful little notational shorthand and write matrices of the form [[a,-b,],[b,a]] as a+bi.
What a situation. Sounds like the ships are stuck traveling at around 12 knots until the issue is addressed, but the fix is a huge time & cost suck?

On the one hand, it's never fun to hear about tax-spend disasters. On the other hand, this sounds like it could be a stop-loss opportunity since the fixes involve throwing tons of money at the problem.

It's too bad though. Combining the turbine & diesel energy seems like a neat trick.

Correct use, documentation, and other concerns are imporant for all libraries, whether got via cargo or otherwise, so this amounts to special pleading again.

More importantly, though: how hard is it to use a library coded in C++ from your Rust program? You have to make and maintain some sort of shim layer. Even a C library needs some such effort. For any given need, you are much less likely to find an existing and suitable Rust library already written, released, and maintained than one in some other, more widely used, language.

And Florida only generates 5% of its energy by renewable means (and much of that is burning biomass).

You're right. It's madness.

This is a nice idea. Perhaps someone will decide to do it someday.
It's a microcosm of the deindustrialization of the US as a whole. A manufacturing and export powerhouse, which financialized by outsourcing production to save on labor & currency arbitrage, accruing profits to multi-national corporations and wall street while the productive capacity within the nation was hollowed out, and labor wages stagnated.

Over time lack of domestic supply chain becomes and security and economic stability problem, and domestic inflation rises after trade deficits grow too large, and various supply shocks occur etc.
I would say very close to the top is the amazing depth of sampling methods, in particular Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods. I'll try to give a small sample of that.

Basically what you're doing in MC is estimating expected values (and thereby integrals: average height times base width equals area under the graph) using random numbers, to be roughly thought of as a rnd() function which gives you back a float in [0,1).

However, using actual proper random number generators has a very slow convergence rate, as the random numbers chosen will tend to clump; on the other hand, if you just use a perfectly uniform distribution, you'll suffer from correlation problems.

Consider a 1-D numerical integration problem, and instead of using rnd() to pick points in your integrand range, you start with some seed value in [0,1), and each time you need a new random number, you add phi-1 to the existing number and mod with 1.0 to get the new number. If you plot this sequence on a [0,1) number line, you'll see that it divides up the interval into finer pieces really nicely, magically keeping a good distance from all the previous values, without even knowing them!

Why does this work? Well, there's a lot of beautiful theory about phi (also relating to biology and nature, e.g. seashells and the distribution of sunflower seeds), in particular how it is in some sense (continued fraction) the "most irrational" number. Does it work well for other numbers, and can it be extended to higher dimensions? Sure, there are some interesting things you can do: http://extremelearning.com.au/unreasonable-effectiveness-of-...

This isn't even scratching the surface of things like the Halton, Hammersley and Sobol sequences, the human visual response to different kinds of noise that makes blue noise preferable, etc. Here's a wealth of recent research on all that: https://sites.google.com/view/myfavoritesamples

Rendering is particularly beautiful in that it touches on so many fields, from pure maths, to applied maths and numerical methods, to physics, to human biology and perception, aesthetics, both low- and high-level programming concerns, even philosophy: if we can simulate visual reality to such high precision, it lends credence to the idea that we ourselves are simulated. To me the apparently obvious truth of this is up there with understanding that the iron that makes our blood red can only be formed in supernovae.
For a few years I built my system using sources leached off freshmeat.net. Discovered Gentoo and never looked back since. Although they do cock up once in a while, they can be forgiven since they're entirely volunteer run.
It generates clicks. It's something that most of people in the developed world have seen in high school and it has nice applications on higher mathematics. The name "imaginary" echoes on some deeper, more abstract mathematics that the layman can somewhat relate to.

"Matrices" sound booooorrriiiing next to "COMPLEX IMAGINARY NUMBERS APPLIED TO QUANTUM MECHANICS!11!1!!".
I have an opening price point Brother laser printer from about 2002 whose drum is on its last toner cartridge worth of wear. I’ve only used it lightly since I stopped contracting about fifteen years ago though.
> I think being a stubborn git I would probably have proceeded to find my own tufts of black hair and continue shooting it until I got it right since it became a real challenge.

I feel this.

I am a web developer but I'm sort of at semi-pro level as a photographer (albeit not a generalist.) I once had a web development job where I did some of the photography and so did the graphic designer. The product was literally a set of different grades of white marble powder.

Not only is it nearly impossible to differentiate these, it's also probably pointless, because the differentiation is more in the material properties than the visual properties. Nobody cares for the photos and yet they were fairly complex to get right.

We did eventually settle on "use in practice" photos for the products but even then, the uses are overlapping, not wholly distinct. Quite a challenging job.
They have a world championship contender, 6 in the top 24 and 22 in the top 100. (USA has 12, China and India have 8 each.) That's domination.

Except Magnus, the top 100 are 150pts apart, which is extremely close in ability. #100 could expect to beat #2 in 1 out of 3 games.

>> I honestly don't understand why complex numbers make people so angry.

I think the reason is very simple: the name. Every time you talk about "real" numbers and "imaginary" numbers, you are telling people implicitly that there is something less legitimate about the imaginary numbers. To put it another way, you're saying that they're not real, when all you really mean is that they're not Real.

Some people just get it quickly: names are just labels, and they don't matter. Others take a long time to realize that, and some never do. Some of us are hard wired to read into the names we give things.
Intel is undergoing a change in what shareholders it attracts as well.

It did catch up with AMD with Alder Lake, but it is also committed to very large R&D capital expenditures.

So anyone holding it hoping for higher dividends and more buybacks is dumping, which is pretty much everyone that bought it before Pat Gelsinger took over.

If they stay focused on the path they are on, they will turn it around. Anyone buying in now should be prepared to hold until 2025.
How can this handle more complex menus though, which have multiple nested layers? I think this is fine for some things, but I don't see it as a great replacement for the hamburger.

You still pay capital gains tax when you sell the shares. Buybacks don't let investors avoid taxable events, they just allow investors to control when the taxable event happens.

Whereas with a dividend, you pay tax immediately when the dividend is issued.
What you actually select for with this particular requirement is misanthropic elitists who see new tech as something to break. A shame, isn't it?

The reasons people can’t sell a product with a blatantly wrong label is because it is fraudulent. However, when words gain widespread use to mean something else, then people can certainly use them that way.

OSI might vehemently argue against people using “open source” to describe source available works, but… people do it. Someone does it in every comment section discussing this topic. People post their source code on GitHub without a license and call it open source. For several decades before the OSI was founded, the phrase “open source intelligence” was used to describe works that were public available, not those that were licensed in any particular way. It is, factually, not uncommon for people to use it differently than the OSI prescribes.

The fact that people have a disagreement on the use of the term is exactly why people have leeway in the use of the term.

To use food as an example, there are a ton of foods that are culinarily labeled “incorrectly”. The reason why they are legal to sell is because people used the words that way.

If you want to use “fried” as an example: consider refried beans. They are often not even fried once!

“Organic” is a different story, it’s regulated in many places.
Overall, these two changes would incentivize holding stocks <1 year more often than people do currently.

Perhaps you could get a longer-term effect if you had another, lower tax level at 5+ years, or raised moderately the 1+ year cap gains rate and moved the current one to 5 years.
Yeah this entitlement says your application is still “in-development” and allows a debugger to modify its executable memory.
Some of the Tech Magic Is Gone
Depends what the failure is. If the important stuff is scattered around 20 different devs, one leaving is significantly less of a problem. I'd much rather piece together what someone was doing on one piece of work than have to try and piece together an entire 20 person project because the only one that knew how to drive the project left.

Also, if you own code and are responsible for it, part of that responsibliity should be making sure you have someone with just enough knowledge of the code to take it over should you leave. That's far more feasible if you own a small piece of it than if you own an entire code base.

Rust 1.53 is from June 2021 and that's where this first works (until Rust Edition 2021 you can't actually just method call into_iter() on arrays because that would mask syntax that could work in some cases on older Rust code, but this code uses the for loop which does not actually do a method call to get the iterator)
In Duchamp's case the execution of the art would be Duchamp's choice of which object to dignify as art. He did make a choice, so execution would be involved.

My only problem with the cliche of “Everyone does x differently” is that it fits intuition and people can relate to it - thus, it’s popularity. More often than not, it is not scientifically backed. It also robs away attention and understanding when things are truly different for one another.
I agree with you there, however reality is that you may have one of these packages in your build, on your system, just through merit of using something else in the js ecosystem. We are never going to have a vetted set of dependencies. It will forever remain a mess as long as the platform and ecosystem exist. At best we can be reactive and kick bad actors out of the picture.
