Came here looking for a way to run Windows VMs on Apple silicon (Parallels and VMware can’t boot old win7/10 images on M1 ARM chips) and instead the solution was to use a second PC to run the VMs (with ESXi) and serve these to the brand new M1 based Mac. Oh well, we’ll have to wait until Parallels/VMware sort out the emulation and we’ll be able to run x86 bases OSes at a decent speed on M1.
> ...the range of scores are not approximately equal across races. In theory, a “fair” non-racist test would have similar ranges of scores for all races.

This is a good example of what I meant by "they are not oblivious to the seemingly glaring contradiction to some of their solutions to racism". If you follow that argument to its logical conclusion you have to explain why races don't have similar ranges while also accounting for the core belief that "we are all equal and race doesn't matter."

The "socio-economic factors" argument is easier to argue and also more widely accepted, yet this doesn't explain why these folks focus primarily on race.
I don't have a comprehensive list, but the #osdev channel on Libera.chat has a lot of very active, very colorful, very smart people all working on their projects. Some hobby, some not. But the Fuchsia devs hang out in there too and are very pleasant and helpful folks.

My project hasn't been announced yet but follows similar design principles to Zircon. I plan to announce sometime in May if all goes well.
Yes this is what "tacit" means. Just like you tacitly agree you won't murder people or we'll put you in jail. You don't get an option to opt out. Its called society. On the upside you get protection from others murdering you. The alternative as Locke put it is "nasty, brutish, and short". Are we really litigating this again? I thought we worked out the philosophy on this a solid 250 years ago.

> data is extractable

That's true for plain text (in the best case), but try extracting an equation, table or a diagram.

Stepping away from best case, PDFs in theory look the same everywhere, but turn into a mess on buggy implementations or differing rendering engines – due to the insistence on having a stable presentation, they assume positining and sizing always works, so when that fails, it fails worse than a buggy rendering of a presentation-agnostic document like an HTML page.

(In my experience, bugs either enter just before printing, or when displaying using JS-based renderers).
> anything that can actually boot macOS almost certainly exists purely to break the macOS license agreement.

Apple provides a hypervisor framework that emulates a standard ARM64 system and macOS ARM64 kernels that run on it. This is how macOS on Apple Silicon virtualization works. It's not really Apple Silicon, it's boring standard ARM on Apple Silicon. Soon after Apple started shipping these kernels, before it was even announced, someone tried it on QEMU on another platform and found it worked just fine in single user mode.

The only catch is the macOS UI requires Metal, and paravirtualized graphics are implemented using serialized Metal passthrough. In other words, if you want to boot ARM64 macOS to a desktop, you have to implement Metal in your VM host.

> But beyond a certain minimum bar, and on a purely financial basis, improving diagnostics or prescription accuracy doesn't not make a medical practice more money.

But giving better diagnostics and better prescriptions can result in improved profits if it's marketed in an efficient way. Would you go to a clinic that will give you the best diagnostic and prescription possible or to one where you are unsure about the result?

Some mediocre restaurants in tourist areas are doing well because they are vouched for and have TripAdvisor stickers on their front door. What if clinics had GlacierMD stickers on their front door? To sell GlacierMD to doctors you have first to convince the patients that is something great about it.
I guess the whole Sun set of tools was built on RPC: All the yellow pages stuff, automounting your home directory etc. Never really thought about it too hard when I was a Sun administrator back in the 1990s.

If somebody gave me a choice of CORBA or Sun RPC, I'd still pick Sun RPC. CORBA was a nightmare.
I don't think you can possibly aim this towards ideas, it's just a tool to develop an echo chamber.

SMS is simply the lowest common denominator. If you want to send someone information given a phone number, SMS will work. That isn't true of iMessage, Google Messages or even RCS. Any method other than SMS or a phone call, requires more information than just the phone number.
> Alas, counting in macro by example is possible, but not trivial.

It's not stabilized yet, but RFC3086[1] introduces macro metavariable expressions, which make counting trivial!

The example macro becomes:

macro_rules! define_error {
($($err:ident,)*) => {
#[derive(Debug, Clone, Copy, PartialEq, Eq)]
pub enum Error {
$($err,)*
}

impl Error {
pub fn from_code(code: u32) -> Option<Error> {
match code {
$( ${index()} => Some(Error::$err), )*
_ => None,
}
}
}
};
}

You can see this in practice on the playground[2].

I agree with this sentiment. Instead of spreading misinformation for sake of "being corrected" or "instigating a discussion", you can just ask for more info and pursue knowledge. You need to understand that some of your BS comments that exist only to fuel the discussion can be repeated by people who actually believe you know what you're talking about, or worse, they can make decisions based on your "informed" comment. It could be destructive.
I had brain fog, insomnia, hallucinations for dreams... It's been a year almost.. I feel ok back to normal but stopped at 95%. Sleep way more, more indifferent, less curious, less creative, less enjoyment in food and everything else pleasurable... The oomph is gone. Like when you recover from bad fever and food poisoning and you're out of it for a day or two. But now it's the permanent state. Medically I'm not sick and I don't know if I'll ever get better. Wonder how many past generations in human history got robbed of normal life or changed as a person for to viruses but we can't detect that because not many died and personality changes were just new personalities onward.

It's weird I can do complex problems but I'm like in this weird zone where part of my consciousness is in a daze like when someone wakes you up way too early and starts group discussion but everything is just rolls off of you...
This might be a relevant calculation if the price rise will lead to increased production, allowing for just as much food to be produced as before (or maybe just slightly less), at an only slightly higher price. But it's not at all clear that that is the situation. It may turn out that there is no way to make up the shortage. If so, there will be a reduction in the amount of food produced. Depending on the magnitude of the reduction, you may die.

One day I got really angry calls on my cell phone (number XXX-YYY-ZZZA) from the owner of a lost phone with number YYY-ZZZ-AAAA.

They were apparently calling from a land line in area code XXX, and didn't know how to dial long distance on a touch tone phone.

I tried to explain that they needed to dial "1", then their number to reach their lost phone.

They kept calling, then screaming about how I stole their phone and to stop screwing with their head; they knew how to use a phone.

After about 5 minutes, I gave up and blocked the number.

Don’t you have to add an INTO (interrupt on overflow) to trigger that? I don’t remember there’s a mode where arithmetic overflows trap automatically.

(And if that’s the case, by now INTO will be a slow microcode implementation, with JO _trigger_into probably being much faster)
Don't quote me on this but usually, regular batteries usually don't allow for such an instantaneous draw.

Lithium batteries like you find in electric cars probably can support this but it does require a certain additional upfront investment.
No, but I think that's better for discussion than the normal state of things, where people behave the same as you they just aren't doing it intentionally and then get defensive when called out.
Patients will normally get multiple scripts per year. A typical script might only provide one month's worth of medication, perhaps with 3 to 6 "repeats" before needing a new script.
>It's interesting how further up someone accused people of opposing nuclear energy for ideological reasons and then read proposals like this, which are completely removed from reality.

Let's see. There are two variables here in regards to power subsystem: power and energy capacity. Let's start with the power:

>A container can weigh up to 28 tonnes, there was exactly one helicopter that could carry this kind of load the Mil Mi-12 and that looked really more like a plane.

According to ([1]), we need around 0.28 kW/kg of thrust. Assuming that the drone weights twice more than a container, we need to have a lift of around 84 tonnes-force minimum, and ~100 tonnes-force in reality. That translates to 0.28 * 10^5 kW = 28 MW. This is close to what Mi-12 had (19.2 MW).

LTO batteries from Toshiba ([2]) advertise 3.5 kW/kg of energy density, which gives us 28 MW/3.5 kW/kg = 800 kg of batteries. Reasonable, given that our budget for drone dry weight is 56 tonnes.

Let's consider the energy capacity. To transfer a container from one ship to another standing 200 meters apart moving at 10 km/h, we would need 144 seconds for roundtrip. Let's make it 300 seconds for redundancy.

28 MW * 300 seconds = 2333 kWh. At 84 Wh/kg ([2]), we get 27.8 tonnes of batteries. Not great, but within out weight budget of 56 tonnes.

The gotcha here that I see is the longevity of these batteries (they are rated for 8000 cycles). Do you see any other issues? I mean, basic physics seems to allow for such drones (not saying it's trivial to make).

> Prescriptions of diet and exercise are ineffective because many obese / type 2 diabetic people can't exercise self-control. That's why they're obese in the first place.

Research continues its trend against this statement.

1) One problem is the fact that the number of fat cells in the body is conserved after some point. So, if you grew lots of fat cells as a child, sucks to be you, you're now stuck with them as an adult.

2) Caloric consumption has been tracked and cross referenced between countries, and obesity doesn't always correlate with it. Apparently, there are other things going on. Some of these seem to be environmental.

3) Fat cells "remember" your weight when they were formed. Once you become obese, your body fights your attempts to lose weight all the way down until those cells die off and are replaced (about 10% per year or so). It takes MASSIVE amounts of willpower to fight your own body over years.

4) Exercise is practically useless for weight loss. The body demands a fixed number of calories (up until you're doing something at the level of extreme training) and shunts the available calories between systems. Exercise has lots of benefits. Weight loss just isn't one of them.

5) I do agree that nothing in the US helps you avoid gaining weight. Portion sizes are gigantic (a "personal" pizza in the US is a full pizza in Naples). Walking or bicycling is rarely useful for most people. Sugar gets added to everything (For example: Austin, TX has been a particular victim of this--gigantic glasses of unsweetened iced tea used to be the default a decade or so ago but has been replaced by sweetened or double-sweetened iced tea (which used to be limited to the Southeastern states)).
How to make money from it:

1. do marketing: convince patients that GlacierMD is the greatest thing since the discovery of antibiotics and insulin

2. sell it to doctors: Dear Susan, this is the biggest thing to happen in the industry in the last 10 years, you don't want to be left outside, as you can lose lots of patients. Trust me, having an GlacierMD on your front door for just $99 /month is a great deal I am making to you as one of our first customers.
I find it hard to believe the devs behind Gov.uk were genuinely considering hard coding all URLs and headings in to FE JS. Surely their mind went to the “window.location” + throttle scroll function solution/“better but not suitable Intersection Observer” options first?

Glad they settled on those either way, because adding 200kb of uncompressed URLs and heading text for tracking is madness.
The Effects of Managers' Business Education on Wages and the Labor Share
It's common to conflate the idea of source availability with problems encountered by lack of binary stable interfaces. One of the problems with the status quo on Linux isn't that drivers aren't released as source, but that they aren't upstreamed. This causes the drivers to no longer be valid very quickly. If you solve the validity problem, folks can continue to release drivers, alongside their source and they will continue to be valid even as the rest of the operating system evolves. Just because Windows drivers tend to not have source available doesn't mean that it's a given the same will be true for fuchsia drivers. It is ultimately product makers who use fuchsia as a platform who drive the incentives for what driver authors do with their drivers.

I don't think India has a higher percentage of the population willing to try and scam other people, but given the number of people in the country, the economic situation, and the level of English language proficiency makes it a very attractive location to set up shop. It's also much harder for law enforcement to do much about the problem when the calls are coming from overseas.

There are so many ways they could implement the same thing.

K-mart could stop marking everything "on sale" 100% of the time and make the regular price the discounted price, so people don't feel like they're getting a good deal. Then their sales collapse and they go out of business, because consumers are robots with predictable emotions.

Or the board could look for the absolute worst CEO they can find, thinking to themselves "This guy will surely bankrupt the company if we give him control", and then have all the written documentation being reasons why he's a great CEO and put out press releases bragging about him.

If you look at executives loading up on put options and say "surely that proves intent", then they'll instead call up their old Harvard buddies at Goldman Sachs and tell them all the reasons the new CEO's going to be great. They'll take the hint and load up on puts on his behalf, then 10 years later give him a cushy job at the hedge fund.

Maybe they wouldn't do it to a successful company. But if a company starts declining, has a couple bad quarters... the executives start looking for an "exit strategy", and you just legalized a whole class of them if they accelerate the decline as long as it's too hard to prove intent.

If you try to ban specific examples and legalize the general principle, they'll spend years of their life arranging for companies to be bankrupted in ways that are hard to prove illegal. There'll be documented "good reasons" for everything, but despite that they will be millionaires and their companies failures.

You can't look at the most obvious case and say "we'll just ban that". It's not how these people work - they are reading the law and planning around the edge cases.
I'm a big fan of Paradox games, particularly Crusader Kings 3, but I don't think anyone should approach these without already having a pretty firm understanding of history and expect to learn anything from them. CK3's engine is fantastic at spitting out personalities, but the way it functions if you're playing as an English lord is exactly the same as it plays if you're Spanish or Indian or Mongolian; only the titles are different.

Obviously, once you start tinkering with history, anything that happens in the game is an alternate timeline. I think most players understand that. But what they likely don't understand is that embedded deep in the game, where it's not obvious, there are value judgments and things which are both ahistorical and somewhat hostile toward non-European peoples. The most glaring one I've discovered is the fact that the Kingdom of Jerusalem is the only kingdom-level territory you can't declare even if you own all the land, unless you convert to Catholicism. I learned this the hard way after conquering most of the Middle East and Egypt starting as a Jewish vassal in a single county - and it pissed me off. (What happened immediately afterwards, when every Muslim empire declared holy war on me at the same time, seemed somewhat realistic).

Anyway, that isn't how people should learn history.
The Verilog source code for the N64 ASICs leaked at some point, it's been floating around the internet for a while. So there's very little you couldn't figure out by looking at that, at this point.

Stick to good practices. If you are asked to do something that's bad for security, raise your objections in written form (email/tickets).

Security isn't only your responsibility; it's also the product manager's and the security team's responsibility.

All together this means that it's very hard for a company to convincingly blame a single developer for an incident. Maybe they fire you as a scapegoat, but that isn't very likely, and it should be far from career ending.
