That's certainly a very American perspective.

Ongoing PRC claims has been consistent since they were inherited from ROC days. They even fought war in SCS with NVietnam when their military was poverty tier. The reality is PRC rise in region has been EXTREMELY peaceful relative to level military expansion which itself is modest relative to GDP. All while settling 12/14 again, ROC inherited land border disputes with more concessions. PRC has done nothing particularly bellicose except defending claims she inherited, again not of her own making. The only possible except of Senkaku which again also ROC/TW claims. Japan BTW, has border (maritime) disputes with 100% of her neighbours despite being WW2 loser who should have territory constrained by treaty. Meanwhile SCS is a multiparty shit show, even then PRC managed to drop a dash line with North Vietnam when other parties made zero progress. The "peaceful" region rise of PRC is historically unprecedented.

There's a reason why western analysts has to bemoan about "grayzone" warfare... because PRC military has been extremely constraint. Even relative to ROC days when TW regularly blockaded military shipping and spent spy missions over PRC territory. TW just coping with reality that military balance has completely shifted in PRC favor. Tranch of US weapon sales to TW in 90s made TW one of the most advanced military powers in the region, but that's been chipped away to the point that TW itself is essentially hopeless regardless of level of US weapon sales.

As for being threatened by democracy, like TW broken politics and industrial stagnation outside of semiconductors is regularly memed on mainland. People don't generally look to TW as a model... or SK or JP or even US (anymore). PRC is threatened by renewed TW seccessionism weaponized by US because at the end of the day, the civil war never ended and they consider TW Chinese clay.
Yeah. UI is unrefined in a way that is kind of fun in a Craigslisty way but doesn’t totally land for me. The core ideas of a social wiki never seemed to reveal themselves to me in a super interesting way
I’d recommend Kahn Academy. They have a way of quickly reviewing what you know. You ought to refresh any gaps in high school math. Then take the Kahn courses in linear algebra.

Eh, I did this. I fucked off for 2 1/2 years to travel the world. All I "built" in all that time, was a silly art newsletter (https://randomdailyart.com/).

It was fine, I went back to work over a year ago and made more money than I ever have before.
I don’t doubt your sincerity and commitment but I find PKB a real problem. I don’t want this 3rd party to hold my information.

I found it difficult to de-register on attempt 1 through my GP. I see now you can email PKB support to do it directly as a patient so I’ll give that an attempt. But frankly services without an automated online de-register smell.

Edit: it seems this will only remove my email from being contacted and my data will still be held. (Yes, I know it’s encrypted etc).

I suspect I’ve already lost. My GP and the hospitals I regularly visit must be users. I have no choice. The business model rattles me. I understand and accept the NHS using private suppliers for IT (eg Azure, design and dev partners). But a model when I’m effectively a customer of the 3rd party is not a situation I’d choose to be in.

No, I'm not trolling. This is one of the coolest websites I've ever seen, despite it being a personal blog and having no fancy animations.
ps: the coolest "site", not the coolest content of the site. While it is very good too in this case.
Also, the landscape changed a lot since the time you started pivoting at 2008. That's just one year after the time I started my career, competition was less fierce.

Now I'm curious it it's become more difficult in the present day for an expert beginner to rebound, when there's far more beginner competition and boot camps are springing up everywhere today.

On the other hand, there are also a lot more learning resources online since the late 2000s. Still trying to weigh both things in my head and estimating whether a 2022 expert beginner would be at a net advantage today compared to 14 years ago.

'shadow banning' is just another method of avoiding responsebility and scrutiny, and stifling dissent. Goes with the times.

Just like not exaplaining reasons for banning what's app account, makin vague TOS, keeping salaries secret, it's the antithesys of a fair and just society.
What I am saying is that when safety is required, there are known techniques to achieve it, but this is mostly about people and their skills, much more than tools.

I am upset reading ignorant people talking about computer security without any real knowledge about it.

This guy don't know what he is talking about.

The fact that you can tag some part of the code as [unsafe] does not make the rest of the program better of "safe", this is magical thinking at best.
This, more than anything, is what worries me. I do not own a Tesla. I didn’t agree to anything. I’m not choosing to enable auto-pilot (or FSD).

And yet my life is/may be in danger because of it.

No other car manufacturer has ever done anything like this as far as I know.

Yeah. I think it's still "probably has happened", but it is very very easy to work around: just try again. The timestamp (and thus the hash) will have changed.

Several commenters have mentioned 3B1B and other youtube videos. I'm curious about the suggested ordering: should one watch the videos to get an intuitive sense of things, then proceed with a textbook/practice questions? Or would it be better to struggle through a textbook/problems, and then watch videos to crystalize concepts after you've primed your brain a bit?

I realize the answers will differ for different people/situations, but I'd be curious to know what has or hasn't worked for others.
Yes, way more stable. At least cypress, I don't have much experience with playwright. We never had an issue regarding brittleness or stability. We do, however, get sometimes frustrated over certain API choices, like the way sessions and cookies are managed and how hard it is to keep a value throughout a test suite etc.
“Routinely” isn’t even close to the truth.
I think the bigger issue would be rubber. Rubber cannot grow just anywhere and synthetic rubber requires a specialized petroleum industry.

I'm literally using a 2.5Gbps RTL8156(B?) without adding any drivers on an M1 MBA as I type this, and I've never had any stability issues with it. I also have an RTL8153 that works flawlessly too.

I transfer tons of large videos and RAW photos imported from my mirrorless camera over these network adapters to a NAS.

I've been using these for quite a few months.

I'm not stuck on 100Mbps adapters, but maybe you are.

Usermode vs kernelmode seems irrelevant... if anything, I want the benefits of usermode isolation for more things. Monolithic kernels aren't great for security.

No, the UK spend on the NHS slightly more than the EU14 average. The NHS is more expensive than the Italian and Spanish healthcare systems, while being significantly worse.

Among Italian expats we wonder how is it possible that a paracetamol dispenser with some ni-no-ni-no cars is so expensive.
Yes. In fact, Jeff Geerling just had a YouTube episode about one (and Raspberry Pi of course).

I just don’t. I have to learn 4 subjects a semester, 12 weeks per subject, roughly 5 sub-topics per week. 240 almost useless chunks of info that I have to get examined on every 6 months. I would top myself if I kept it all in memory. I do my best to learn the concepts, then write my brief understanding in a note system (org-roam). I don’t have to remember any of the shit after I’m done with it.
Intel processors have a feature called Supervisor Mode Execution Prevention (SMEP) designed specifically to prevent that in most cases (because there's a decent chance the code might be attacker-controlled). It's totally optional, of course.

There is a big policy space between "We are done with the theatre" and "literally faceless, anti-social dystopia".

Unfortunately many of the policies in that space will negatively effect powerful vested interests (see climate change, see health reform, see food standards, see police training, see banking, see...). Such vested interests have expended vast amounts of effort to convince the 'ordinary person' that nothing can be done - or equivalently, that the only things that would work would end our way of life as we know it. I'm sorry you seem to have been caught up in that.
Simpler is better, so you want to add another sensor that humans don’t have, to do a task that only humans can currently do safely? This makes no sense to me.
It’s about coming together as a team as far as I’m concern and get energized for the day. It doesn’t work for everyone and that’s ok. “Quick planning” is like, “Hey, I need with this today. Is anyone available?” But really it’s about coming together for me.

I find it fascinating to watch as the crypto community gradually recapitulates the evolution of the existing financial regulation/structure.

In this case, negative attestations are reimplementing liens / UCC filings (for business loans) and credit reports (for individuals). But without any plausible consumer rights recourse, of course. (Like for example your right to have errors on your credit report fixed.)

It will be interesting to see if they can use zk-SNARKs to come up with a scheme that’s substantially better here.

Another corollary of this observation is that crypto will recapitulate the evolution of privacy legislation too. As the OP notes these systems are going to struggle to comply with deletion requests under GDPR. And while many would buy the premise that financial regulations are not helpful to the public (I don’t personally buy that), I think privacy legislation is much more popular and clearly a case of hard-won consumer protection.
That makes more sense. The OP talking about lower monthlies combined with a balloon payment and then people moving at the end of the term, strongly implies deferring principal such that it never actually gets paid off.

Further, the OP made it sound like a lower monthly payment is a given. In fact, as you note, that's only true when rates are not rising. The OP (and lots of homeowners, apparently) is going to be in for a surprise as the most recent cohort of Canadian 5-year mortgages come due and get refinanced at current rates. Those payments will no longer be lower than the US equivalent who locked in a 30-year fixed rate between 2017-2021.

Thanks for the (much better) explanation.
I remember seeing a report that some of the cash offers are actually the mortgage equivalent of payday loans (we'll front you the cash for a premium interest rate)

Obviously, there's not a whole lot of data around this, but interest rates have normally been a very big sledgehammer by which to hit asset prices.

They already took a political stance by letting him be unbanned. Theres no way this would ordinarily be allowed. But since the victims were only Russian and Belarusian people, Microsoft let the perpetrator get away with the crime.

The message Microsoft is sending right now is loud and clear: That they dont take malware threats seriously. That it isnt a big deal when users upload malicious code / trigger a supply chain attack that permanently deletes peoples files. Because the worst thing that can happen is only a minor slap on the wrist.
LA is about vectors and rotations and stretches of vectors, which is what happens when you multiply a vector by a matrix. That’s what you will be visualizing.

Try the Kahn videos, then watch the 3B1B videos, which are very visual, but somewhat advanced. Or, watch both of them several times in parallel.

Great point. I was conflating the Simulator and the app that React Native builds. Simulator is definitely running natively on ARM.

And your comment made me go look back at my react native project setup. Looks like the main reason my app is still building to x86 is because of one Expo dependency that doesn't yet compile to arm64. So more of a Expo concern.

Thanks for checking on your end.
> I think we should get away with the 'net impact' of 10x engineers because that's too contextual

Disagree. My experience is that 10x engineers ARE inherently contextual. When we are talking about the cream of the crop, this requires evaluating impact.

You need the opportunity to thrive, which can be deeply contextual. Luck is an element of life. Napoleon would have been nothing without the French revolution. Einstein was fortunate (but capitalized!) that no one had put together Minkowski distance with open questions from michelson-morley.

"You are (almost) correct! It's a Fokker D.VIII monoplane."

My eyes are dim, my back is grey etc! Of course it is - I made a model of it about forty years ago and obviously a 1/32 scale Fokker DRI too, painted red with a white nacelle. My parents were stationed in West Germany for about 10 years on and off. The world was quite odd in the 1980s as it is now.

Now as to scaling currencies. I'm a bit ambivalent here. I think a rule of thumb might be better than nothing so 4DM == £1! No, as you say it is too volatile for that. I can remember the days when there were at least two USD to the GBP and the Euro wasn't invented. The NLG (Dutch Guilder) was roughly like a DM (Deutsche Mark) but not quite: the Dutch currency was extremely colourful and way prettier than other currencies. France had their Franc - 10 to the quid (GBP) which was easy to convert, and so on.

If I want to scale your currency to mine or another then I think that is my problem, now I've had a think about it.

i actually found out about this site after finding a very cryptic pamphlet at a bar. the site has hundreds of pages.
Lots of great suggestions here! The original question was probably answered already, but nevertheless I'd like to humbly leave a link to the article “So You Want to Study Mathematics…” by Susan Rigetti [1] — it covers not only linear algebra but other parts of math as well. Quite inspirational, I'd say.

Bridging is a layer 2 operation, and both WiFi and wired ethernet are identical in that regard (and bluetooth ethernet encapsulation). It does work, on other operating systems.
Agreed. Github is relatively easy for a business to migrate off of. Your data is relatively portable, and there are competitors, and even self-hosted solutions with feature parity. One error in judgement could cause mass panic throughout the industry and prop up the competition even more. And don't forget that many still have an axe to grind against Microsoft from the Gates/Ballmer days.

I used to run a relatively large open source MMORPG server (hundreds of concurrent users), with a tight-knit community. People there have done some pretty awful things (hacking, doxxing, you name it), yet when you try to punish them, the community finds a way to revolt, and rumors of all sorts will come out of the woodwork. It is human nature. Github is correct to tread carefully in all cases. Whether it is moral is another matter.
What Is a Monad
Is AX88178 compatible without 3rd party drivers? Plugable says no, and IIRC I needed a driver that never got updated for my gigabit ASIX, but it might been a slightly different chipset...

At any rate, a big issue is that for USB, macOS only has generic ECM and NCM drivers. ECM as a protocol sucks and was barely suitable for 100Mbit, let alone gigabit, plus Realtek's implementation of ECM is quirky to say the least.

RTL8156 implements an NCM endpoint, so that's probably the best USB option these days.

> Watch, I bet we will even see a huge jump in rare cancers.

Only if those cancers are triggered specifically by Covid.

For most other cancers, we are likely going to see a time-shifted decrease in them.

The Covid lockdowns absolutely wiped out a flu season. Other viruses probably had similar profiles. We know that asthma went down more than expected from environmental triggers during Covid lockdowns. Continuing hygiene is likely to push down some viral transmission--for example, sick service employees who can't take a day off have their transmission significantly curtailed by corporate policies still mandating a mask.

Medicine is about to have a whole lot of information about things that are triggered by pathogens. The end conclusion is likely to be that we are FAR to cavalier about viral diseases.
We don’t need the latest tech stack to help people
Is it a clickbait title? A little bit, to be honest.

My aim is not to learn the latest available framework, the top performing DB, or something similar. Absolutely nothing against those who want. It depends on what you want to achieve.

That’s what I used to build https://helpalaidoff.com :
- 1 csv file
- 2 php files
- Heroku

Why didn’t I chosen to use the latest, shiny new tech stack? It would take me longer to learn and build something. With the tech stack above, I was able to launch the project after 10 hours working on it.

Don’t get me wrong. My background is engineering, working as a developer for 10+ years. I know how important is to use the best practices, reduce tech debt as much as we can, etc.

Hopefully I’ll be able to help people looking for new opportunities in this tough moment.

What do you think? Do you use the latest tech stack when building a new product? Go with a tech stack that you will be more productive?
