> Also I`ve read the reason Iowa Battleship in USA is not fully decomissined is just in case they need it to take out the two Russian battlecruisers... not likely to be nededed but "just in case"

The Iowa and Wisconsin (originally New Jersey and Wisconsin, but then Congress specifically intervened to override the Navy and specify Iowa to replace New Jersey) were returned to the reserve status and kept in mothballs because Congress ordered the Navy to keep to Iowa-class BBs in reserve in case needed to support Marine amphibious operations (this ended in 2006), not to fight the Kirovs.
Distance from the shoulder fired missiles?
Good point. From what I can find their missiles are indeed solid as well. But they do have hydrogen peroxide torpedoes, which could have been the culprit, as with Kursk.
Because...they own the company? They literally hold shares representing their ownership of the company and then vote on what to do with said company. That is democratic.
Russia is lying about Ukraine at the moment but the Soviet Union was telling the truth and only truth when it was attacking Germany in 1945? OK.
Apparently it sank during a storm so probably getting visual confirmation to share was though. The drone was used to distract the radar, probably got shot down.

100 million is 100,000,000, or eight ZEROS, not eight FIGURES.

Low eight figures is a small multiple of 10 million.
I have a lot of respect for coders. I also massively appreciate their humor. I don't think there is such a relation between a computer scientist and a programmer where one is greater or better than the other; they are merely different professions. I expect a programmer that has worked using Java, ObjC and C++ for, say, a decade, will have a better grasp of programming those languages than a CS grad 10 years after graduation, even if they learned those languages and used them, they probably weren't only programming, but also what appears to the untrained eye as sitting around like a lump. Often that's what contemplation looks like. A programmer codes a lot, so they'll be better at it.

It has been pointed out to me before that mostly what computer scientists do is reckon. This is why I am onboard with renaming Computer Science to Reckoning Science. It is a subtle thing, but I think it would prevent countless students from wasting the best years of their lives due to incorrect expectations initiated by the confusing name of the discipline. It really is important to understand that the "computer" in Computer Science is not a digital machine, a mainframe, server, a Dell, an Acer, or a Mac, instead it is a living breathing person. I have to envy the Math majors and Math grads. They knew exactly what they were getting into, not a one of them ever asked, "what do you mean, 'it's all math,' ?"

There's no massive army operating in one place. It's a bunch of units running around in the woods, hills, towns and cities. Their largest forces are probably near the largest Russian forces, so sure, if they're willing to cull their own.

Misinformation is incorrect or misleading information presented as fact, either intentionally or unintentionally. Disinformation is a subset of misinformation, that which is deliberately deceptive.

So yes 'misinformation' no 'disinformation'

> It's a new era of finance

I have no experience with crypto, but this I don't understand.

> DeFi is unlocking the value of an asset, making it liquid...

Like a mortgage or a bond issuance (bonds are secured against assets of the corporation)?

> Credit is loaning you money and providing an interest rate. Usually something insane like 15%.

Average rate for a 30-year fixed mortgage in the US is about 4%[1]. Average Aaa corporate bond yield is 3.43%[2]. I guess that you are talking about interest rate on credit cards? I think that credit card debt is pretty small compared to the size of the mortgage or bond markets.

> One example is on Kaurura...

I'm not sure I follow you here, but it sounds like you get a loan at 19% APR against some collateral. Then you use the loan as capital for some other investment at a higher rate of return.

My question: how is this any different, for example, from a company issuing bonds at 4% coupon rate and using the proceeds to fund operations when the company's profit margin is, say, 50%?

Let's say it's a matter of scale; I, as a person, can't issue bonds to trade on a public market. But I can get a mortgage and invest in other stuff hopefully at a return higher than the rate on the loan.

As I said, I don't understand how this is a "new era of finance".

It we assume that $6,800 reflects a more accurate post-hype valuation of that NFT and extrapolate that to other NFTs (which admittedly is perhaps not valid), people who spent thousands of dollars on NFTs, tied to real notable things or people, can expect single digit dollar valuations of their NFTs, which doesn't seem entirely unreasonable valuation for what are essentially baseball cards. If you spent hundreds your might get cents, and probably the vast majority of those sold over the last 6 months are probably not worth the transaction fees to move them so essentially have negative value. Are NFTs dead? Maybe, maybe not. Is the bubble popping? Seems like it.
It’s complete BS and between the forced upgrade to a paid account for the same email I’ve used for about 10 years AND the lack of response to an Adsense issue where I could not run ads for a YEAR because Google thought a JPEG was malicious software, I’m moving everything I own away from Google. Already moved the email and domains, working on the drive stuff now.

That’s probably right. It just sounds so outlandish to make up a lie to make yourself look bad.

Maybe there’s something about Russian military culture that the rest of us don’t understand, where being killed by the enemy is a much bigger loss of face than killing yourself.
Sounds like we need to do a better job of explaining why that isn't the case (at least, that is my belief, I believe the most extreme are those most likely to be prolific on Twitter, not those with the most representative beliefs).

How about use and improve the open WebVR standard that is built-in to browsers? Bring back the feature that allowed for portals with transitions between sites without exiting VR.

We don't need Meta, just need to improve VR in browsers a bit, maybe add something to websites that makes it a little easier to integrate cryptocurrencies. Although there is nothing really stopping it now.. maybe some enhancements for integrating cyrptocurrency wallets into VR more securely.

The key distinction is what name when applied to the hoped for platform will win funding from the national tax authority - what ever that is.

In the UK talk of cruisers is a no-no, the last "through deck cruisers" were actually aircraft carriers, and no one is falling for that again. Thus the Type 45's are definitely destroyers despite displacing 9400 tonnes. In other lands the Ticonderoga's are cruisers, even though they displace 9600 tonnes, the Arleigh Burke are destroyers at 9300 tonnes, but the Zumwalt's come in at 14000 tonnes as destroyers as well! Note, there will only ever be three Zumwalt's.
> More like being "sank while being towed" I think? (edit: original title was "Cruiser 'Moskva' sank while towing")

Fun fact: in early modern English, "towing" was the correct passive participial form, and "being towed" was ungrammatical.
I was responding to a blanket statement alluding to AVX512 (which is rather a can of worms). I don't understand what this is on about, especially with reference to the article. Of course you account for matrix dimensions at run time, like to decide whether or not to do packing in GEMM, whether to call out to GEMM for matmul, etc.

I do try to shop around every few years, but return to Gnome. KDE is perpetually never quite right. Visual clutter, forcing desktop metaphors like Activities on me, and poor integration (read: different toolkit) with the things I actually use.

I agree, I should leave. But doing that is even more change. At some point I just need to get some work done. I'll moan and groan and maybe one day Gnome governance will stop individuals vandalising the project's applications without community buy-in.
Imagine that this tactical nuclear weapon from 70's fail and expolde over russia territory Or is dropped and do not not work.

BT 3.0 offered up to 24Mbps bandwidth, with other variants offering up to 3Mbps. CD quality music is 1.4Mbps. If you cannot come up with an error correcting scheme that will let you upload music in real time with those parameters, what parameters would you need? (And sure, these rates are hard to achieve with BT in real world because of varying distance and interference, and yes, CD quality music is not the highest quality encoding you can use, but you can achieve similar or better quality with less bandwidth too)

And let's not forget this was a discussion of buffering. A buffer of 5 minutes (50MiB) buys you 5 minutes of not having to be real-time, or to be slowly lagging behind — if that covers 3h of continuous listening time, you probably covered 99% of uses where latency is not a big deal anyway (like playing music — calls and movies are another game).

I already acknowledge practical UX problems with just relying on buffering, but it doesn't make much sense to say how it can't be done because of the protocol either.
The answer is the legislature, via copyright and patent law. You know this, you know the point I'm making. Your choice to be coy and unserious makes me wonder if you even sincerely hold the position you're arguing.
This is incredibly far-fetched. At best, a rogue actor within a foundry, who happens to be working on the correct process node, who happens to be on the account of the customer victim, might be able to access the GDS file (the full-chip layout file submitted by the customer) or maybe even the mask files (GDS split into layers and processed by the foundry). Exfiltrating it is an entirely different story. Usually these files only reside in very, very locked-down environments. For this very reason.

Supposing they did get the full layout to an external network, they still likely wouldn't be able to do an ECO because most of the major players will be using custom standard cell libraries, and not the foundru-supplied ones. Even if it were using foundry libraries, the same rogue actor who has access to the chip layout probably wouldn't (and definitely shouldn't) even have access to the foundry's standard cell IP.

At this point it's already a virtual impossibility, but let's keep going. The next step is to actually perform the ECO, which requires a "net list", or a text equivalent of the schematic. Can you get one from the layout? Absolutely. That's how all Layout-vs-Schematic tools work. And the research paper says it's trivial, which it is. But what's not trivial is turning the transistor-level netlist to a gate-level net list. Again - standard cells aren't actually standard, especially bigger and more complex ones. Even harder still is using a netlist to figure out what those logic gates are doing. Trust me, I've tried. Is it doable? Theoretically. But with millions, or potentially even billions of logic gates, it's going to take a very, very long time.

Then you've got static timing analysis and power analysis to worry about. With the layout and a gate level netlist, you have all you need to run the tools. But again, it's going to take an extremely long time. Real designs are built hierarchically, so each team is doing timing/power closure for their own blocks and summarizing those for the parent block. If you have a massively flat structure it will be impossibly slow.

The underlying research paper makes some massive assumptions , which don't have me convinced at all. Their "trojan horse" circuit is legitimate - you create a digitally controlled oscillator tied to some critical data bus like in an AES subsytem, and the changing data modulates the current consumption of the oscillator which can be measured externally. This type of side channel attack is well known.

To me, the Trojan horse implementation is trivial, though. The much harder part is pulling off the ECO.
So it's still people doing the work, only the contract exists in a different type of database. I'm really missing something if that is supposed to be substantially different than the current relationship I have with my insurance company.

Although with my insurance company I at least know the assessor is qualified enough to look at pictures from a car accident and determine the sequence of events and who was probably at fault.
Glory to them if true, but this particular ship had 6 independent fire control radars for their close-in weapons systems, which are automatic. The UAV perhaps destroyed the sensor system of the long-range anti-air missile system? Either way, obviously it worked. I am a huge skeptic of anti-missile weapons since they have performed extremely poorly in limited practice.
I don’t get it. Most people. The vast majority, won’t ever spend $700-ish on any thing that isn’t proven, incredibly popular, and has limited functionality. On top of that, as you stated, the higher priced VRs required a high end PC (maybe Windows?). Then a bit below that I think some were or are available for the latest Xbox and PlayStation consoles. Isn’t very other VR set up not too cheap with no external requirements?

The average person in first word countries doesn’t have a ton of spare money. The majority of people don’t. How is being financially elitist about VR better than what FB did?

Why can't you sell it for some crypto asset and exchange that for cash (obviously this second exchange requires a trusted third party)? Maybe I don't understand your example.

That seems like an issue with cash (no way to enforce you giving me the thing I paid for, and no way for you to enforce me giving you the cash for the item you gave me).

Yes using cash gets rid of the guarantee that the transfer of goods is fully atomic that crypto generally offers. Buying tomatoes at the store has the exact same problem.

> We've never had a situation where fake news can and does spread the way it does today, where authorities are being undermined like this and casually dismissed by people with no knowledge of the respective fields, etc.

There have had situations where the authorities are the ones generating fake news, and they have also criminalized dissent or corrections. I view that situation as more threatening than the current one.
>I can guarantee you that if governments took away forestry restrictions that solid wood furniture would start to be built in a matter of months as new wood mills setup churning through previously restricted lands, at least until the Earth is deforested and climate change wreaks even greater havoc than it is already.

>Why is solid wood expensive? Because it's a limited resource.

Wood is a renewable resource, it gets cut and replanted all_the_time. Pine is a 30 year cycle and our country is full of it. Can you tell me what restrictions you think are in place preventing tree farmers from growing and selling trees?

> ideology

You keep saying ideology. What ideology are you talking about specifically?

>we stave off deforestation by pressing low-quality wood scraps and sawdust into OSB and MDF boards

Trees are a crop just like any crop, they just have a much longer grow cycle.

>In general though, applying the critique that chasing profits has impacted furniture quality is shortsighted.

It's really not. There is a market for higher end furniture made at an industrial scale, but it's just not being met. Chasing profits at the cost of quality is obvious everywhere you look, if you think it's not been happening I don't know what to tell you.

>The ideology that progress/profits/conspiracy is what's making things worse and the past was a better status quo is tautological; there's no proof or even research necessary to make the statement, only the invocation of conspiracy

You contradict yourself. You said if you want quality wood furniture, buy antique.

>Then go to an antique store. They restore old, expensive pieces, the same way people in the past would pass down heirloom furniture and the same way most poorer folks would buy their furniture.
It doesn't really matter though, because in California, the state constitution explicitly states that privately owned spaces open to the public (so twitter) must guarantee freedom of expression. The case law is pretty absolute and settled in this regard. Most famously... shopping malls in California have to allow union protests within the malls (with only mild regulation, mainly around safety / opening hours). Thus, by the Supreme Law of the state of California, as a private company, Twitter is legally obligated to -- at least for California residents -- not restrict their legally protected speech. Twitter frequently does this to california residents, thus violating California law. If the law was applied equally, they would be fined and censured as the malls were who tried to union bust.
Fair enough.

If the charge is that it was sequestered by members of the right-wing and then intentionally released right before the election to influence the outcome, then yes that is definitely true.

But there were claims that this was a hoax, forged documents, or sourced from Russia. There has never been any evidence backing those claims, AFAIK.

It definitely helped for getting into college, which helped me out a lot, though fittingly I did end up dropping out of college years into it because of more projects I picked up on my own which then helped get me a job.

I think a lot of homework is busywork, made under the idea that nothing a kid does already outside of school has educational value. It's a shame that some of the most educational experiences I had were in conflict with the system. But then again, maybe that is an unusual experience? I think there's a stereotype I don't want to fall into, of autodidacts who fail to realize something unusual happened with them and think that all that's necessary to put others onto their path is to merely remove the obstacle of school. I wonder if it's possible for schools to better encourage this kind of experience, of kids learning through fostering mildly-competitive scenes of projects like this.
