MIT is Ok because MIT is compatible with GPL. GPL has language saying you can't add restrictions, but the combination GPL+MIT is essentially GPL so it's ok.

Dual GPL/MIT essentially means that you as a user can choose whether you to use the code as GPL or as MIT, but if you contribute to the code you must provide the full GPL+MIT rights.

As to why release a driver as GPL/MIT instead of just the GPL, I think the idea is that the BSD's (or other OS'es) can take the code and use it under the terms of the MIT license and port it to their kernels. IIRC there are many drivers in Linux that are dual licensed in this way for that reason.
Russian Fed. is a natural partner:

- we are all European, till the Urals, we understand each others as we have done even during the cold war BETTER that what we do with the so called "anglosphere" (cfr Limes, geopolitical review), we also share similar values;

- they have gazillion of natural resources we need, they are developed enough to harvest them but not enough to surpass us in tech terms, they are surrounded by not-really-friendly powers (China in primis) so we need their resources, they need our tech and support, an equal, balanced and fair partnership;

Our best interest is going out of NATO, form a REAL European Union, with a common fiscal and social system, a French-lead initial nuclear deterrent toward an EU army (due to the still present language differences that makes a real general army not really doable in short time), toward again an anti-fascist Costitution modeled around Italy and Germany ones, offering Russia to apply for EAEU (EuroAsian union) with a pact of mutual and fair partnership.

This is pretty obvious, no? If you choose a (uniformly) random point inside an n-sphere, the components of the vector will go to zero as n gets larger -- after all, the sum of their squares has to be less than 1.

I am guessing you know as well as I do (based on your previous posts) that one of the prime drivers of homelessness is a combination of the credit bureau scam and the "3x rent" income requirement. More than building new facilities I believe these factors play a much larger role. Even today now that I'm far more stable and my credit is decent, I still run into these issues when I have to move. I might even be homeless in a few months, again, despite being fully capable of affording the rent for my area. I don't know how to fix this.
Yeah, Red Hat is actually moving the black box of releasing-engineering out in the wide open, for anybody to replicate, and see how the sausage is made.

CentOS Stream would be a perfectly suitable alternative to RHEL9, and in many ways more desirable. And, in a strange way all those people who were being super conservative... more attracted to centos being behind RHEL, as if that made CentOS more stable by being slightly behind... well, that's RHEL now. So.. uh.. maybe just use RHEL instead, since it's now even more conservative? Also, it's important to recognize during all the drama, Red Hat changed their licensing to be pretty much free for small to medium sized operations. So the argument of being cheap, or whatever free value of CentOS is now entirely gone... Red Hat only cares to license from the medium to large.
Most people want space and privacy but still want to have access to the kinds of services, goods, entertainment and community urban areas offer. High population density is also a problem from an environmental perspective, so the best option seems to be somewhere in between. Away from crowded city centers, but not out in the middle of nowhere either.

Thanks! Indeed, software development seems like one of the most probable course (my bachelor was in CS, so that's not too far either) but I'd be worried to end up too deep in software development, with no "input" from what I learned studying maths. Ideally, I'd still put this background to good use.

> The Wuhan CDC laboratory moved on 2nd December 2019 to a new location near the Huanan market.

SARS-CoV-2 had already been circulating for months before Dec. 2019 in Wuhan near the wet market. And therein lies the rub, that this is not remotely compelling evidence a lab leak could have caused COVID-19. In fact, it is impossible, because, again, the virus had already been circulating right there for at least a few months prior to this. But nice try.
This reminds me of a man who told in some Dirt Rally 2.0 Youtube-video comments how spending hundreds of hours on that game saved his family on motorway. Some incident happened before the car and the man was able to avoid the danger safely with fast reactions and driving experience.

How do you know Ukraine is "on that continent"?

By which I mean, all the talk about Ukraine being in Europe seems to imply it's common knowledge that none of Georgia, Abkhazia, Transnistria, Moldova, Ossetia, Chechnya, Ichkeria, Tajikistan, Armenia, and Azerbaijan, to name a few, are in Europe and that's why conflicts in those places were largely ignored in comparison.

This small tirade of yours is arguing against a strawman.

GP is likely referring to the userspace component of nvidia's driver, not the actual blob that gets loaded onto the gpu. If it is indeed true that you need to run proprietary userland code, then this open-source release is nothing but a way to circumvent the GPL issues that lead to nvidia's driver partially breaking in Linux 5.??.

While not ideal, I like many don't have a hard stance against loading proprietary hardware firmware blobs. I, however, absolutely take issue with running opaque user-space programs.

Wasn't there, like a decade ago, some university researcher (MIT?) who came up with the idea for a portable lens forming machine that could make arbitrary lens shapes on demand in the field? Maybe it involved rapid curing plastic or something, and a mold that could be shaped easily.

One of the ways I avoid getting stabbed with a dirty needle is based on background rates. I think I'm safe in sticking with my priors that acupuncture clinics are held to less of a standard than vaccines are. Hypodermic needles necessarily come in sanitized packages, after all.

There's more to science than just asking questions and collecting data though, there's also developing models. Without good models, you can't gain much insight from data, and in fact you'll sometimes gain incorrect understandings. If there's no supported mechanism for how acupuncture works, it's really not a good sign, and it seems dishonest to think it's at all in the same realm of safety as something like vaccines which do have known mechanisms of action.

I think back to how much "data" we had in the 50s that tobacco was harmless. Is it ever a good idea to go for something so invasive to the body as needles without a strong reason, just because the dangers aren't readily apparent? Medicine passes the necessity bar, placebo does not.

Crypto is still a new and high-risk asset, and is considered a risk-on asset by all of the broader financial markets.

When Fed interest rates are low and credit is cheap, money supply increases and more of it flows into higher risk/return assets like crypto and drives their prices up.

When Fed interest rates go up and credit becomes more expensive, money supply decreases and funds flow out of high risk assets like crypto, driving their price down.

The current bear market will last as long as the Fed continues raising interest rates, then turn back into a bull market when that reverses. Unless there's a war going on, in which case all bets are off.
I originally tried using MDX. But in my experience, JSX syntax is better suited for writing websites than writing documents. The <Tag></Tag> syntax is more verbose than @Tag{}. I ended up having to do lots of raw string embedding too, like <Component>{r`content...`}</Component> which is even worse. Basically you either had a really concise syntax for special Markdown-supported operations, or you had a really annoying syntax for non-special operations. Nota instead provides a uniform somewhat-nice syntax for both.

Additionally, I found the composition semantics between Markdown and JSX somewhat confusing. Random whitespace and newlines would sometimes have a very significant effect on the resulting document. It wasn't really clear when you would be in Markdown mode vs. JSX mode.

FWIW the Nota React components (e.g. @Definition and @Ref) could be used with MDX. The Nota syntax and Nota runtime are separate.
No.

Google’s hardware is lackluster, their services come and go and are bloated with telemetry, their search is worse than ever, there’s no live customer support person to talk with in the event of a problem, and there’s no unified vision.

I notice a lot of the discussion can't think beyond the current two party "system" - if we do this then A will always win, do that and B always wins... but actually other than the US, democracies that I know (Europe at least) have multiple parties. And these, if they can't win, can at least take away enough votes to shift the power. Other than that, some countries have a combination of "first past the post" geography based voting, and seat distribution based on vote totals. Which I think is a good system.

I don't really think it's a good enough answer to count for that. There are plenty of good answers for this already out there, I just happened to write out a more mediocre one as I'd have no clue of what to search for. The article sure doesn't make it easy to recognize this as combinatory logic nor the fact that this is common notation for combinatory logic.

Looks like De Anza has guaranteed transfer agreements with most UC campuses but not the big two (UCLA & Berkeley):

https://www.deanza.edu/articulation/guaranteed-admission/tag...

I'm 95% sure that didn't use to be the case. I am a transfer student from De Anza and I recall being torn between Berkeley and where I eventually did end up. Maybe it was dropped more recently?

Even without the guaranteed transfer though, the acceptance rate for transfers from local community colleges is waaay higher than applying out of high school. If you keep good grades (which is easy to do at CC because you're graded on a curve with classmates that aren't all in the same league) and apply every quarter/semester from the moment you're eligible, you're likely to get in before having exhausted classes to take at the 2 year college.
I cut loose in December 2000 because I was fed up of the systematic bullshit of management failing to accept reality, and my cousin was getting married abroad in January so a great opportunity to travel presented itself.

The company was managed by capricious, get-rich-quick types that kept making us perform dumb stunts and acting in really terrible promotional videos rather than finding customers. I didn’t exactly see the crash coming but I knew I wanted out. I think the trigger was the owner saying in total seriousness, “Red Herring is my Bible,” clutching a copy of the magazine. Who remembers Red Herring?

What a time to be alive.

When I got back in March from a great trip the company had totally imploded and sacked almost everyone but were pretending that everyone still worked there when I popped in to say hi to my friends/team - ‘out to lunch’.

I had a bit of hassle getting back into work, took me about three months I think to land a decent gig but then that was that.

> OK, how about a lab person took it out of the lab and released it at the market?

Well, you're going to need to identify that individual and their exact means, motive, and opportunity for causing a global pandemic. That is how we solve crimes.

Except that Occam's Razor eliminates that possibility as unlikely because it is much simpler explanation that COVID-19 was caused by the conditions exactly like those found at the wet market, just like every other outbreak, epidemic and pandemic ever. So you're going to have a bit of difficulty identifying an individual that never existed and, even if they did, has no compelling motive.
> volume of an n+1-ball can be of a smaller volume than an n-ball

Volume is the ratio of the n-ball to the n-cube.

Saying that n+1-ball has “smaller volume” than the n-ball is equivalent to saying that the ratio of the n+1-ball to the n+1-cube is smaller than the ratio of the n-ball to the n-cube.

> I understand how the proportional space of an n-ball bounded in an n-cube can go to zero

The volume comment is saying that the ratio of the n-ball to its bounding n-cube goes to zero faster than (base-2) exponential:

The bounding n-cube is 2^n times the unit n-cube.
Are you talking about the same thing? Mutual, consenting sexting between two teenagers can't possibly be illegal, can it?

That's definitely the cynical way of looking at it :) And sure, if they threw more bodies at the problem they would definitely catch some of them. But in my experience the community has found and fixed some weird bugs that probably would have been hard to bubble up through normal channels, or would have just been deemed too low priority under normal circumstances.
Here in NZ (but also in Germany and I'm sure other places) we use MMP - it's pretty simple - take your existing setup and halve the number of representative seats - we all get 2 votes the first vote chooses a local representative for your local seat. The 2nd vote is for a party, each party provides a list of candidates before the election, you count up the parties who have won the local representative seats, then hand out the same number of list seats so that the proportion of seats in total (list and representative district) match the proportions of the party vote - some places have a minimum threshold (3-5%) for a party to be included in that count.

I've found the same to be true for running: if I continue running (or more accurately, limping) on a sprain, and massage the area when I get back home, the sprain usually heals within a few hours and I can run again the next day as if nothing happened. OTOH, if I stop running, and either ice the injury or take painkillers, it takes almost a week for the sprain to heal.

Of course if you don't like the id's that MongoDB generates by default you can always the supply your own. The only constraint on the _id field is that it be unique as we automatically apply a unique index. Effectively if you have a unique key for your data you should use _id for it as it saves you an index. (We always index _id).

What a load of rubbish.

Russia has no respect for basic human rights and democracy. Deep economic/social integration with Russia is very dangerous for western liberal democracies until Russia makes major reforms (would probably take 50+ years).
The wet market stands out as the most likely culprit, because conditions existed there that are identical to what conditions we would expect a pandemic to arise from, because every other pandemic ever was caused in the same way in the same conditions, all of them, not just some, every single pandemic known was caused by conditions precisely, exactly like those found at the wet market. And, again, there have been dozens of lab leaks where contagions escaped labs, and as of yet, none have caused any pandemic, not even outbreaks.

So first of all, you need to prove it is even possible a lab leak could cause a pandemic. Because you are assuming that, and it certainly is not clear that is the case. In fact, all evidence points to the contrary... because it has never ever happened. Not ever, not even once in 100 years.
She was elected on 16th of July 2019 by the EU Parliament. There were 383 votes in favour of her nomination, 327 against and 22 abstentions.
