I would expect it means your service provider isn't dropping packets. Their protocol seems to just be more aggressive about not backing off in the face of packet loss, which is helpful if one of your links is a marginal radio connection.

The cynic in me thinks they achieve better throughput because they don't play nice with TCP and monopolize the link while everybody else gets backed off.

Sorry I meant 1/2 the speed or 2x the time, edited :)

Consider that BLAS written in pure Julia has very decent performance. If you are into numerical computing, you will quickly understand this is crazy.

Carefully written Julia tends to be surprisingly fast. Excessive allocations tend to be a bigger performance problem than raw speed. Of course excessive allocations eventually have an impact on speed as well. There are some idiomatic ways to avoid this.
THat is true but after trying to get the hang of it for a week I was back to obsidian :) . I think it would take months, and since I don't use emacs as my regular editor it just wasn't worth the cognitive load.
Yes. Because finding 'sandy particles' in the body is common and expected to the point that nobody cares about them if you don't have any symptoms.
This article includes some essential details that are largely unknown to most readers: the US government not only severely restricted the ability of foreigners to even enter the United States based on ideology and national origin; they also severely restricted the ability of Americans to LEAVE THEIR OWN COUNTRY, again based upon ideology and "race" (see the case of the Black American journalist whose passport was revoked because he dared to report from Cuba!)

The greatest triumph of the American system of doctrinal management has been the inculcation of the bedrock belief that "we live in a free society." We do not, and we never have. It remains a worthy goal; many of those fighting to realize it remain criminalized, ostracized, and imprisoned.

Would a "free" country jail its citizens at a rate FIVE TIMES HIGHER than the other countries of the world?

Would a "free" country maintain police forces in every major city that are larger and more well-equipped than most national armies worldwide?

If one were so inclined, one might wonder how these tendencies manifest in one's professional, social, and personal spheres.

Or one might argued about the advantages of higher-bandwidth system RAM vs faster SSD's… or vi vs emacs…
Yes, having played with the pico, ESP32 and predessor I kinda agree, thouogh ADC's in microcontrollers are limited depending upon what you want to do and will often lean towards an external.

The ESP also has hardware floating point, which if you need to use that sure does blast past the pico's core's.

What the pico does shine well at is the PIO controllers and a good documentation user base. The fact that within a year it had early on full support in the ecosystem of microcontrollers is pretty darn amazing, more so given Espressif not exactly known for their doumentation and the whole intergration with IDE's like the ardiuno was dedicated users off their own steam driving it.

Another plus for the PICO is that you can get for a dollar the chip itself and with the advent and ease of doing your own circuits, afforded the ability to roll your own controller board how you want them. Sure can do that with the ESP's but not sure so easily accesable price wise as the PICO chip is and not as cheap.

Yes the whole lack of wifi and BT upon the PICO in todays times with IOT this and other projects, does leave shortfalls, though there are boards that do that, sadly many get WIFI by adding something like an ESP01 chip and the whole ironic aspect of a microcontroller needing another microcontroller for it's wifi when maybe what you wanted to do could be done upon the ESP01 alone, well. Bit of a chuckle.

So for me, were the PICO stands out is the PIO controllers and how they with the USB host option allow many device avenues. Want your own joystick - doable, want to emulate some odd protocol - may well find the PIO can take a lot of strain from that.

ONVIF is the discovery/configuration protocol. Most all of those cameras stream RTSP/MJPEG/etc.

I’m fond of the cheap Chinese cameras off of Amazon — Annke in particular, which I think are just rebranded Hikvision cameras.

On the cheaper end, the Eufy cameras can be configured to run in non-cloud RTSP/ONVIF mode. The C24 models run between $30-40 a piece (they go on sale often) and have great video quality. They are USB powered.

I have this stupid idea called “Would you do it for a dollar?”
I have had this idea for a while, for months but I never actually implemented it. It seemed kinda dangerous. It's called "Would you do it for a dollar?"

In simple terms: people can visit your profile and ask you" would you do ______ for a dollar?" Then you fulfill the request and earn $1. You need to reach payout limit before being paid out.

Seems very unusual and interesting, but I feel like it will be abused so much, especially by requesting dangerous things.

That's the problem. We don't know if it's BS or real. How am I, halfway across the world, going to know?

The other problem is we've labelled it BS to some degree because we just think Russia is making shit up to justify their actions. Maybe we think that because the claim of a "democratic", almost in NATO country becoming nazi is unthinkable, therefore it must be disinfo and propaganda BS by Putin.

Good video. I've been thinking about heat pumps a lot lately, namely, is it possible to make geothermal ground loops cheap and not disruptive? I wrote a bit about it here: https://www.greennewdealio.com/heating/robot-mole/

Air source heat pumps really are great and it seems everyone in mild climates should be moving towards them. In fact, what I'm working on right now is trying to figure out the maximum ground loop "budget", beyond which it would be cheaper to run inefficient heat sources (COP of 1) for the small periods of time where air sourced pumps no longer work.
As someone that have spent a lot of time in both Ruby and Python (and specifically a lot of hours in the Python scientific compute stack), I would say that Python is significantly more readable. Python is also significantly easier to teach as opposed to Ruby, especially if the target audience already has a bit of programming experience (from MATLAB, or other courses).

I suspect the main reasons are:

1. Python's guiding philosophy of "There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it". With later additions to the language, this is getting less true (3 different ways to format strings, asyncio, type hinting, etc). Some libraries also don't conform to this (matplotlib). That said, it's a lot better than the Ruby code I've encountered, which is like the wild west.

2. Python's syntax is reasonably simple to teach. The object model could be condensed into something very simple if you don't need a lot. With very basic knowledge, you can go a long way. Ruby's a bit more chaotic with things like inheritance, extend, and include; proc, block, lambda; having to use attr_accessor; syntax things like a = b could be a function call or not; if/unless; and many more things that are confusing.

3. Even basic things like loops in Ruby is not idiomatic as it wants to apply a function/block instead. Beginners, especially those with a bit of background, like their loops better than functional programming.

As I've spent many years working on Ruby code base I still get lost all the time. Python in my experience has been a lot better, although recent Python versions have regressed a bit as it introduced more syntax to do the same things.
No, but conflating correlation for causation _is_ excess pattern recognition.
Yes -- that's the one I am referring to.

This is one of those things that, had it not occurred in the aftermath of more than four of the most norm-crushing, aberrant years in the history of the western world, could have brought down even the most popular person.

(This sentence applies equally well to things that have happened here in the UK in the last few months, and in both cases the problem is the same -- a polarised system where one side has got used to constantly acting in performative bad faith.)
The server motherboard I just bought has this as well. Thankfully access to it is at least isolated to a separate network port. I'm debating supergluing it closed or maybe physically disconnect the port somehow.

>This testing approach isn’t that conclusive.

Agreed. I just tested with two phones and one phone timed out but the other was able to maintain a connection. That would suggest that my microwave is maybe leaking. However I'm able to use the microwave without any noticeable effects from on 2.4ghz devices.
Well, people still prefer physical newspaper in third world countries. Digital news mostly consists of social media which ain’t a replacement of actual newspaper. So, it is a significant development in that sense. But every crisis brings an opportunity so maybe more people will start reading e-paper.
While there's definitely always a cost to consider when running a server, I think a good portion of that cost can be reduced with the right tooling an expertise.

That's not to say that a experienced team can run an infinite number of arbitrary services without cost or anything like that, though. There may be a select few situations where the cost of deployment and maintenance is negligible, but that's going to be the exception rather than the rule.
I believe an appropriate term for that low level in this context is undifferentiated lifting
You’re over complicating it. If you *want* kids then have them. That’s perfectly reasonable. If you’re in you thirties and have the adult basics down you’re ready for kids. Kids are hard work but also they’re cute and add a lot of joy to life. They also put your own personal goals and other peoples goals in perspective. The other day in a meeting with my child’s teacher I was so proud that had to wipe away the tears. I don’t get that feeling from my personal achievements.

I don't currently have any sideloaded apps on my Android phone, but this is the reason I have it. I can reasonably say it's mine and not Apple's.

> Microsoft tried [...] and failed.

They didn't fail, they quit. You can't build something as enormous and complex as a modern and performant web browser that keeps up with modern standards for only 3.5 years.

They did the same with Windows Phone but worse, since they had to reset development twice or three times and there was a growing ecosystem of third party apps that got tossed around.

That's not trying. Microsoft doesn't try, they make very brief attempts and then give up just as soon as people start paying attention to them.
> As a rubyist, it makes me sad that python ended up here rather than ruby. And I sometimes wonder why.

Work on numerical packages and scientific computing started almost as soon as the language did, for instance the origins of Numpy lie in the Numeric package which was introduced in 1995.

And the core team introduced several niceties at the behest of the scientific community (advanced slicing for instance, more recently the matmul operator).
Given that RP2040 needs external flash, I'm quite worried about the performance when pulling uncached code from it (on top of using M0 core - I'm used to M4 by now). I know the MCU has 16kB of cache, but my firmware for which I'm still deciding on whether to port it to RP2040 or not is about 80k. Does anyone here has some real-life data on this?

Not only was I awkward and shy -- but I was an extravert! I wanted to be around other people and got bored easily when I was by myself. But I didn't necessarily have the social skills to pull it off. So I was pretty miserable.

What changed?

I've thought a lot about this, and to be honest, while I would love to say that it was an intense, fulfilling journey of self-improvement ... I think what made the biggest difference was that the people around me changed.

In high school, my peers were brutal and immature. There were bullies. There were people who would be a jerk to you for no reason other than for giggles. And there was a lot of pressure to conform or at least not stick out too much.

Then college came around and I got involved in activities like the student newspaper, a co-ed a cappella group, and several other things. And the people were welcoming and actually wanted me to be a part of their group.

Then, after college, I entered the working world, and while there were always a couple of difficult personalities, the vast majority of the people I worked with were professional, welcoming, appreciated my contributions, and wanted me to succeed.

Yes, I can still be awkward at times. Through practice, I've gotten better at small talk, but I'll still trip over my own words from time to time. But the people with whom I've been fortunate to develop personal or professional relationships tend to have the maturity to accept that part of me.
You are correct - I should be running chmod in the download stage and that is what I did before realizing `--chmod` existed. However, `--chmod` is still a valid solution.

The reason I did not stop with running chmod in the first stage is because this seemed like a common problem - what if I was ADDing a binary or a shell script directly from a remote source and I did not have a download stage?

I'm sure there are better ways to write that Dockerfile - I'm by no means an expert. It just so happens that I noticed this problem when the Dockerfile (it was from a different project. I was modifying it) was in this state and I had nothing better to do than ~yak shave~ investigate why the image size was a bit larger than I expected :)
Yup, that's the current strategy.

However, I'd prefer to have a secure JavaScript-engine that could be kept on by default, then enable a fast JavaScript-engine on a per-site basis.

For example, I have an exception on here for HackerNews to use JavaScript. But the JavaScript HackerNews uses is trivial; a naive JavaScript engine that's 1000x slower and uses 100x the RAM probably wouldn't even make an observable difference, would it? Except if it's secure, then I could've just had JavaScript on by default (without needing to add an exception), and then I wouldn't have to worry about stuff like if HackerNews gets compromised one day.

A lot of sites seem to do really little things with JavaScript, but break if it's disabled -- some blog sites won't even load posts without JavaScript enabled. It'd be nice to just have a secure browser to view such things with.

> What Happens When Kids Get Their History from Video Games?

The same like when adults get the truth from media.
A lot of confusion between various comments so far so this is my attempt to re-baseline:

- Chakra is the JavaScript engine in I.E. 11 (and later forked for the old MS Edge), Trident (MSHTML) was the browser engine (forked into EdgeHTML for the old MS Edge).

- The I.E. 11 desktop application is just that, the desktop application. It is not all of I.E. 11 or it's engines, the rest of which are still in Windows 11 even.

- I.E. mode is the first party way to access the remaining portions of I.E. 11 via the current Chromium Edge, this is what allowed them to sunset the I.E. desktop application.

All that said I don't particularly buy this as being particularly more secure. Sure, it's only getting security fixes but that doesn't inherently mean it is more secure or getting more security fixes than modern solutions. It could just be becoming an outdated security architecture that is only patched often enough to keep the minute userbase happy enough.
