Interesting, thank you. I don't think it's weird because SCMP has a pretty broad mandate... They often have lifestyle type articles, like any other big broadsheet. Maybe you just don't know that much about SCMP.

The SCMP article just talks about doing simple things to relieve the parasympathetic nervous system effects of anxiety and, and suggest that if you can take the edge off like that, then having anxiety can actually be an advantage because, you can use the emotions of fear as a information source to discover areas of improvement in your life.

I don't actually see any similarity with that link beyond the "facing difficult things can make your life better" aspect... But I'm not even sure that that link was saying that.

The article includes some tips like deep breathing, exercise and eating well to relieve anxiety but also pay attention to it and reframe it as a source of information about things which you could look at as opportunities to create improvements in your life.

“The problem is that mostly we just want our anxiety to go away as quickly and painlessly as possible. We ignore it. If we welcome anxiety as a teacher, it can help us to learn something about ourselves. Paradoxically, embracing our anxiety can be the quickest way to live a less anxious life,” she writes.

She makes a distinction between bad anxiety, which is an excessive amount and may require medical intervention, and good anxiety which if approached correctly can be used as a transformative signal.

If we approach anxiety as something to avoid, or dampen, we miss an opportunity to improve our lives. Listening to anxiety from a place of curiosity can guide us onto a path that leads to true well-being,” Suzuki says.
To reap the benefits of anxiety, we need to control the amount of it we are feeling

As a serial buyer of games, I'd like to disagree (if only to prove that there is at least one). I often buy games just to marvel at the technical aspects and realism of them. I find realism and reality extremely interesting. Now, "resalistic" doesn't need to be "everyday" looking. Take CP2077 for example.

That seems odd, can't high heat cause enough of an "annealing" effect to allow the charge to leak out and reset the cell? I don't know how much heating you could safely manage on a single point on the die but this would seem to be within the realm of feasible if you could uncover the portion of the die without completely destroying the packaging. If it's a plastic encapsulated IC and something like QFP where you can get at the die surface from the top then a laser could probably be used to etch through the plastic and locally heat the memory cell without trashing the chip.

You should not be using the Powershell that comes bundled with Windows. It's slow and only updated with major system upgrades. Install the open source version: `dotnet install powershell`.

Having said that, Powershell suffers from the same problem as .NET: slow startup. It's improved massively in the last few versions and I think it will get even faster once it's built using NativeAOT in .NET 7. But it can also never be as fast as .NET, since it's interpreted. So there's that.
The seclab people are not the same professor I was taking about who worked on decentralized systems (and didn't work on security): you are mixing up two stories I told about people in two different subfields.
I first encountered operator precedence parsing - the climbing algorithm - in the source of the Delphi compiler, which has a comment at the top dating it from 1990. That compiler was originally written by Peter Sollich.
I unfortunately can't see this working in every scenario. For a Switch it seems like a workable solution as the owner's motivation is the only controlling factor in whether or not the device stays on the secure side or the anything-goes side. (If there are loss-leading/cost changes to the hardware that is a discussion that can be addressed separately.)

For a device like a phone the owner's motivations can become muted, such as by a service provider functionality requirements or an employer's desires. This is similarly where the problem comes about in the discussion about side-loading.

We already know that there are many developers who wish to live on the 'nasty' side, but there is also a laziness motivation in using that side as well, it's less work for the developer.

This then becomes the ever-widening hole where consumers get brought onto the 'nasty' side blindly because that's where the market is - at the same time exposing the users to all of the 'nasty' stuff that technology was originally there to protect them from.
I remember PPC and its rlwinms and co. My ARM isn’t that good, though I can read it.

But some of those x86 instructions take 0.5 cycles and some of them take 0 if they’re removed by fusion or register renaming. It has worse problems, like loop instructions you can’t actually use but take up the shortest codes.

The comparison for the use of 'efficient' is watt and performance to watt. The initial cost is probably double for the Mac Studio, locking in a whole lot of MWh. I see a something like a 60 W difference in average power consumption. So about 15 hours per KWh saved (€ 0,25 per KWh). Say a € 1000 price difference is 60.000 hours of usage. That's nearly 7 years continuous use, or 1500 office weeks or 30 office years.

I hope the future is ARM though. But for general computing, not Apple-specific. Tiny, embedded, silent computers with a low power draw, perhaps with some on the fly computing in the cloud for specific purposes like gaming.

I'm also surprised by that seemingly negative fork rake.

This claims stability is more determined by fork ~trail.
http://avaghon.nl/download/Naloop_Bikestability-Forkrake.pdf

This bike has a steeper head tube, reducing trail. But reducing rake (even if it goes negative), increases the trail again.

Stability is more complicated than just that, though... iirc bicycles have a bunch of nodes, including 1? 2? that are unstable but slow enough that riders don't notice they're compensating.

The sync conflicts happened to me whenever I left keepass databases open and changed it on multiple devices. Usually, those changes were adding new accounts into the databases or changing a password on one while adding something on the other. This regularly happened when working in a team.

I assumed people would switch from Keepass + database synced on a private server to something else when they started working in teams and need better/easier permission models. :)

As you have mentioned it, I have written the tool keepass-diff (<https://github.com/Narigo/keepass-diff/>) to help me for exactly these conflicts and I could quickly resolve the issues with it. It was still useful enough to let me keep using Keepass. Was it not working for you or was it too hard to use because of how it needs to be set up first? Would you have stayed with Keepass + sync if something similar to this was integrated into UI clients?

Yes. And your cellular provider could send text messages "from" you. Your email host could randomly delete all your emails. Your credit card provider could buy stuff on your account.

But they don't because they're all enormous companies with thousands of employees. The negative PR would be instant and overwhelming, and the sheer amount of staff would render trying to do it secretly, ineffective.

There is cautious, and there is paranoid.
If you have a hash of the content in the NFT verifying what it pointed at is trivial.
I could also not do any of that and trust an authority to provide that service for me.

Society encourages specialization and most people will not start to self-host for some idealistic reasons that they might not even share. Unless self-hosting is more convenient and has better UX the majority will not adopt it.

Even if you as an individual want decentralization, you will still be affected by this creeping centralization. Tokens on platforms (like OpenSea) will have more value and liquidity than trying to trade directly. If your NFT gets blacklisted on OpenSea it will lose value. Even if you never intend to use OpenSea, if the majority uses it to verify "authenticity" it will become a central authority.

Just look at all the phished NFTs. The owners (not anymore) immediately rush to OpenSea trying to get the "stolen" NTF blacklisted.
I am not so sure, judging from the German press coverage, it seems that this study is regarded as vindication for Birbaumer and Chaudhary. The patient didn't just answer yes/no questions as in the original study, but produced whole sentences. Also, this isn't a situation where it is not even clear if the patient is brain-dead or not - the patient has ALS sind 2015, is in his early 30ies, and was communicating through his eye movement until this also stopped working just a few years ago. So he is most likely fully conscious.
Anatomy of a Ghost CVE
MTECheckedPtr in PartitionAlloc
My previous employer is one of the biggest game providers (in terms of daily users) in the world, and we ran a incredibly stable infrastructure based on VMs running on KVM with a home-built bash script to deploy our application servers everywhere.

Every bare-metal server is essentially setup identically using Saltstack, and then each virtual machine is setup identically on start as well. This allowed us to spin up, down or replace 1, 10, 100, 1000 stateless VMs for each game in a very short time period, with all the servers having identical configuration and deployed on.

Databases also have a similar setup, though a lot more complex as they are stateful and cant be removed with short notice. Stateful workloads are really hard and require more domain knowledge than a java application, so we decided to not virtualize the user-critical databases and keep them as they were to not embrace the complexity.
Or, hopefully, they are releasing a new Switch with more cores and it manifested it self more often on that hardware. :)
> Unless packet loss or increased RTT is seen on every hop between a given hop and the end of the trace, it is not a problem.

I once spent a month trying to argue this point to my ISP when they asked for mtr tests to diagnose a packet loss issue. My home router hop showed 90% ‘loss’ so they repeatedly refused to investigate on that basis.

The problem turned out to be widespread across their wholesaler’s network, but of course, according to the ISP, I was the only complaint they had heard of. Over the course of two years the wholesaler was bought out and their network upgraded, which immediately solved the recurring packet loss. Surprise, surprise.

Indeed, you can.

This is commonly used for microcontroller reverse-engineering and cracking - you can remove the "program read-protection" bit in some microcontrollers by exposing the fuse portion of the decapped die under UV light. That being said, in all instances of fuse manipulations I'm aware of, the chips are always decapped. I never heard of a non-destructive technique (asides from fault injection), so I'm not sure how practical is your proposal - though I won't be surprised if it exists. But make sure the chip doesn't depend on a critical bit to boot (e.g. external clock enable) before you try - indiscriminately erasing all the fuse bits can brick chips - you don't want that to happen.

Also, as a matter of fact, corrupted fuse bits are certainly responsible for some hardware failures in the field. If a fuse bit ever "gets loose", it can brick many chips since their boot configurations are no longer correct. Fuses are usually designed with a negligible failure rate in normal use, still, defective chips are occasionally made. Also, if you're going to use it in a high-temperature industry application or a radiative space environment, you definitely need to be careful.

Hm, I don't know if I understand your ideal world correctly, but back in the days, when you could host your own game servers for e.g. Team Fortress or Counter Strike (all based on Half-Life the original and basically free with every "legitimate" Half-Life license), it was nice and dandy for only a very short time.

Soon you would only want to play on closed/invite-only servers, since the guys that "wanted to be nasty" didn't go into their own little corners, but were glad to spoil it for everyone else. And even then the cheaters invested a lot of time and effort to sneak into closed circles to ... I don't know, simply cheat?

Guys just randomly using your key (at a point were Half-Life was really cheap and easy to come by) were also a constant annoyance.

So Valve had to do something, and this was the Steam client, cheat detection, and a constant cat and mouse game to save the experience for players and assets/investments for the developers and in effect their "platform".

Never underestimate the desire of idiots to ruin it for everyone else.

> wind is rarely meeting even 50% of its nameplate capacity.

That’s hardly news though. In the US, the capacity factor of wind averages around 35%. The world over, it can range from 15% (though obviously you’d hope for some analysis before building to avoid locations where it’s that low) to 60% or so (according to the wiki, for Eolo in Nicaragua).

Solar is both better and worse: more regular, but less evenly distributed, for PV solar the CF ranges from 20% in the south (e.g. AZ) to 10 when you reach the canadian border.
There is a lack of balance here. Yashg is not wrong in his assertions, and nor are you, that time will tell if the non-scammers are successful or not. I was laughing at the concept of bitcoin when it was mere cents to the coin and some pizza was bought. I'm not laughing now, but I'm also well aware that if you need to explain why something is NOT a Ponzi scheme, it's a Ponzi scheme. I've done a fair bit of work in the NFT space, and saw myself how riddled with fraud it is - not the operation itself, but the punters trying to scam the platform for a free token. I also saw how brittle the concept really is. In many cases, the smart contract is simply saying address X owns the number 4. That later gets translated to some URL which is not guaranteed to be there in 10 years time. Storing the actual asset on the chain would have been preferable but is not practical. So where does that leave us? How does one's ownership of the number 4 translates to them owning a deed to a building or a picture of a monkey, in the sense that you could explain it to your grandma?
I'm on the fence here. I want this to work, but I also understand how it works and know that it's not a simple task.
Yes exactly, ownership gives you the right to occupy the property and you can also trade that right for rent as well as reaquire it. Hence conceptual overlap.
