"it's good for nothing" boomer talk.
One thing I've always wondered is how fast you could make these chips go with modern fabrication - I know it's not necessarily just a trivial scale down design+scale up clock speed, but assuming the same fundamental design with necessary changes to keep things functioning (gate delays and stuff seem like they'd be the big changes?).

Is anyone here an EE, who has access to original circuit design, knows how to translate to vhdl, verilog, or what have you, and also just happen to have the money lying around to have TSMC tape out the design so we can find out? :D
Very few people want a 6 month employment contract, they want long-term, so its easier to find fools who are seeking for perm then fire them after 6 months
> Nobody means literally nobody when they say nobody.

This is a funny sentence because you're using "nobody" in the exact way that you claim "nobody" else does.
The principle is the same, but this design is different and better in some ways. Depending on the generality of the claims a patent may be reasonable. The Enclave design is more refined/compact, but I'm skeptical of the longevity/durability of the wedge mechanism.

The underlying principle that's common between the StuffMadeHere and Enclave designs is 1. Decouple setting the pins from testing them, and 2. Do not allow the keyway access to physically manipulate the set pins while testing them.

Interestingly this same principle is used throughout cryptography, e.g. in constant time comparison algorithms. Basically, any partial success information leak can be used to reduce the search space exponentially. And that's what single-pin picking is all about, so it's cool that this idea has (finally?) migrated to physical security.
You think lawyers haven't been replaced solely because of regulation?
I recall a short story, back from the splatterpunk era, named "Mind/Matter." It starts off with a young man, brilliant in his own way, watching his mother die of Alzheimer's at a tremendously young age. Fast forward to him as an adult, and he is already suffering from the effects, but he is stewarded by an expert system he programmed that guides him by pager prompts and such. He is able to manage a career as a screenwriter by recycling old scripts and a bank of pre-written scripts, with occasional periods of lucidity. He lucks onto an experimental treatment in another country designed for his sort of problem and experiences a "Flowers for Algernon" effect, only highly accelerated, having literally minutes of first clarity, then super-human intellect ...
The other poster was actually pointing out something insightful: That the term "soulmate" can (and does) mean different things to different people. What you call the modern usage... isn't. It's used to describe multiple concepts including "the perfect puzzle piece human" and "someone I am bound to through thick and thin". The former is problematic because it allows people to bail at the first sign of trouble while taking no responsibility whatsoever. The later is probably better overall, but I've seen it used to rationalize staying in an abusive relationship.
I know the post is satire but using baldness as a feature of villains in movies is surprisingly common still. I noticed it watching Dune recently given that the Harkonnens were not even bald (or specifically entirely hairless) in the books or the 1984 movie.

I don't think anyone's arguing that it's the worst injustice anyone faces but it is surprisingly often used as a visual shorthand for people lacking humanity, which is pretty nasty.
Your comment has inspired me to change my outlook when participating in “ephemeral” conversations (conversations with people that I likely won’t ever have a chance to see regularly)

A couple of people I’m close to have always relished these conversations and I’ve never understood why until now. Thank you!
I think in Data Oriented Programming it's fine for your code to depend on data structure. You want to separate code and data, not to decouple them.

As for why see for example Command Query Separation (the data oriented way) vs Tell Don't Ask (the encapsulate everything way).
mixing items causes contamination, that is rgen harder to separate.
That would be 46656 keys. I don't think this is feasible.
The best part of that video is where he notes that the hinge pins were welded "to prevent me from tapping them out and declaring victory...and he was right to do that as that's exactly what I would've done".
>> Take, for example, AuthorData, a class that represents an author entity made of three fields: firstName, lastName, and books. Suppose that you want to add a field called fullName with the full name of the author. If we fail to adhere to Principle #2, a new class AuthorDataWithFullName must be defined

Wait, what? Just add another field/property to the existing class. It's a silly example anyway as normally you would just add a function to concatenate the two strings.

The stated advantage is to be able to add the new property "on the fly". I suppose this means without changing the code. It does beg the question "what can existing code possibly do with this" (other than display it in a generic way or count the number of fields)? Furthermore, adding something new is rarely much of a problem as it is a non-breaking change. A more difficult example would be removing the "firstName" field. Assessing the impact of such a change in a large code base would be extremely difficult. Get good a grep and hope that the test suite is comprehensive.
You should check out the K language and Haskell as well.

Both provide currying as part of the language.

Does anyone have a link without the paywall?
There is a Whole Foods store one block away from my house. Next to it I can see a number of bicycles with some type of trailers. They are used for deliveries. With such a bicycle a person can deliver easily 3 times more than a person who just pushes the groceries on a cart.

One way to look at this is to say the bicycle increased someone's productivity by a factor of 3.

But another way to look at it is to say that one man and one bicycle can do the work of 3 men now. So 2 men will lose their jobs. A bicycle just replaced 2 men.

The bicycle does not look like a robot at all, but is just as good, if not better, at replacing human workers.

The same with other jobs. You don't need to replace 100% of the workers. You just need to bring machines that increase someone's productivity by a factor of 5, and boom, you are able do let go of 80% of your human workforce.

At the same Whole Foods store there are lots of self service lines now. My guess is the number of cashiers went down by at least of factor of 3.

Amazon has shops where you don't even need a self-service line. You just go in, pick whatever you want from the shelves, and leave. The cameras keep track of what you pick and charge you appropriately. They started using this technology in Whole Foods stores (one in Washington DC is already functioning, one in LA is coming this Fall).

I went on a road trip last week. I noticed there are no more manned tollbooths. Everything is fully automated. That's probably some thousands of human jobs lost. Big win in my opinion, the passage through the tollbooths is much, much faster now.
I find this topic to be interesting and important. Any reccomended reading further detailing it, suggestions on fixing it, or stories about countries that have done better or worse with this problem?

The book The Power Broker by Robert Caro talks about this subject a little in an indirect way.
Dealing with all these differences is one of the most frustrating, stupid things about programming today.

99% of the data i deal with on a day-to-day basis is lists and mappings.

Very conceptually simple, but with a million different implementations. Particularly in python where we have dicts, namedtuples, dataclasses, regular objects, etc etc etc, then you deal with databases (which are really just mappings of keys to rows), where the interaction works completely differently again (with annoying differences for each database of course). Then hundreds of different encodings again to send things across a network or save them to files.

None of this complexity is inherent to the problems being solved - it's all accumulated cruft and bullshit.
That looks very encouraging. Offshoring all manufacturing is not healthy and this not only localizes production but reduces environmental impact: win/win!
Intel says they may need / spend 100 Billion dollars on the project. Is that a lot of money for what they would be making? And then, when it is done, will it be competitive with these new 2 nano-meter fabs being planned? How much smaller can it go from there?

Two Types of Privacy
Awful stuff. These principles could only ever make sense in a dynamic language since it's mostly manually enforcing some of the basic functionality of a type system, but the fact that he also tries to argue this style could be used in a language like C# throws that defense out the window.

The examples also contradict his other principles, i.e. immutability.
You can also put the main loop in zero page, and increment the addresses directly by incrementing their zpage values. I would expect that to be slightly slower than total unrolling, but it wouldn't be as long and thus more practical.

DTCC is not a government entity thats a fact
Vast majority of board members of DTCC represent entities that were in one way or another on the hook if Melvin and others were to fold. (lent them money, on the hook for lent shares to short etc.)

It could just be bias in the data.

In Canada and northern US, you expect the cold and plan accordingly.

In sub-Saharan Africa, you expect the heat and plan accordingly.

It's when the conditions flip-flop (hot Canada, cold Africa) that people run into trouble.
Just about every key lock in the world today has the same fundamental flaw. They are designed by a human being, and they test if that design can be exploited by calling it unpick-able. This flaw opens up infinite kinds of vulnerabilities.
Making memory management obnoxious by not handling copying for you doesn't really encourage performance. It just encourages people to prematurely optimize things that don't matter.
It might invalidate aspects of the patent, but the two are different enough that certain aspects of this one are still patentable.

Bottom line, you don't always patent the whole device, sometimes just the small unique implementation details are valuable enough.
Any reason not to have rye on your "important today" list?
Agreed, the first step is realizing that the data structure is a graph of snap shots. And then a lot of the primary operations are about calculating deltas between arbitrary commits, and the applying those deltas elsewhere.

The relationship with testosterone is complex; higher levels interplay with a genetically determined follicle sensitivity.

Standard library can't vary per edition, generally speaking. Maybe there'd be a way to get around it in this case, I haven't thought much about it, honestly.
We always called them spicy flies. Colloquial phrases can be pretty diverse.
You can still use types, as long as they don't encapsulate the data. Admittedly this is hard to do in some languages.
Sometimes defining who should have authority over a singular original type definition isn't possible. This is sometimes true at companies, and it's even more true in open source projects. Even when possible, single type definitions in those cases often end up as Homer-car monstrosities that are too big and difficult to construct when only a small subset of fields are needed.

They count. It's the ones not teaching, just collecting.
So whatever became of its sequel? Did EverQuest 2 just never catch on?
This does seem like it might be vulnerable to a comb pick attack, if you can push all those wafer stacks into the sliding bar.
With pre-processing: sort the source data so that the same bytes (along with their offsets) are grouped together, then convert this to code. It could be useful for drawing things like fixed sprites quickly.
Whatever you're looking for in a city, by the time you read an article in a magazine you're too late. Everyone else that wants that quality is already on their way there (and probably going to ruin it.)
I feel like I've seen this two step design multiple times, both on YouTube (LPL, and someone else)? But also I feel like I've seen it somewhere else as well?

This seems like the same idea with a "modern" website design .
Always thought about gpt generated articles guess I’m behind the curve
Most of these arguments for or against are irrational, with poor understanding of what "training" really means. Some cases might not violate laws, but some of those are violating the spirit of those laws, and laws are often revised to take new technology into account.

But Dall-E in general can be another medium for art, which is why some artists give it massive praise.
Holy cow! This was an amazing watch and I can't wait to see the rest of them. Thank you so much for the recommendation
I remember how completely disgusted with EQ 'carebears' the UO community was. It was telling though that asherons call, which was a bit closer to UO than it was EQ, was never as successful. People want boring, safe experiences.

Great game though, AC.

I mean that's half the joke, but am I though? :)
Need to see the patent or published application, and in particular the claims. I've got a few patents under my belt, but I'm not a patent lawyer. Typically when prior art is found during the preparation or processing of a patent application, the inventor can either argue for why their thing is new and different, or narrow their claims to the point where what's left satisfies novelty. Now at that point, one is left wondering if their idea is still worth patenting. But that's another matter.

Even as an inventor with some experience in the patent process, I still find it hard to second guess the patent office on what they will accept or reject as prior art. The lawyers are better at it than I am.

More than once I've rushed breathlessly to the lawyers with screaming hot obvious prior art, and they say: "Meh, it's not prior art because of X, Y, and Z, nice try."
You say this like the profit seeking in the US is some sort of natural phenomenon that we can't avoid. We can adjust costs based in cost of living and local currency, profiteering is what sucks resources out of the system

Physicians in the US are protected, there's only a limited number of slots every year in med schools. This is fake scarcity
My CS programme (class of 2003) had one semester of assembly programming, either 68HC11 or 8086. I took the 8086 flavour and it was definitely designed around dev-board style development rather than expecting a rich BIOS/OS support environment.

There was a more embedded-focus "Computer Systems Engineering" degree option which involved a lot more assembly..
So do you regularly increase employee salaries to match their demonstrated competency and responsibility? Or are you like most employers, giving new hires better pay than your current top performers, incentivising your top performers to find a better paid job somewhere else?
it actually is Domain Driven Design, domain data-oriented programming
My guess is this comment is not going to age well. Fundamentally the point this article is making is: how many of those weapons / missiles do we have in the entire NATO stockpile? What's the annual production rate? How fast can that be scaled up? The numbers are not all public, but from what I can tell the answers are really surprisingly bad.

e.g. it looks like Ukraine conducted a first HIMARS strike:

https://twitter.com/ralee85/status/1540859211814502405

"one of their salvos killed two and wounded several" and destroyed some vehicles - now multiply that times how many missiles the US and NATO has in their total stockpile and total annual production, and see if it that will win a war against a fully mobilized Russian army, much less China.
What kind of logic is that? Ok here:

It’s easier to learn low level first because then you are going “downhill” as you move into higher level languages. For a Python programmer, the borrow checker is terrifying and confounding “Why do I have to do this lifetime nonsense just to make a string? I don’t have to do that Python!”

For a C programmer, the Rust borrow checker is likely to elicit feelings of relief and jubilation “You mean I don’t have to spend another afternoon in valgrind tracking down use after free bugs? Awesome!”
As it should be. Politics at work makes for untenable working conditions. Large enough companies will tend to have people deeply on both sides of the political spectrum. Encouraging or even allowing discussion on hot political issues is a recipe for disaster. It can ruin what we’re otherwise perfectly good working relationships.
Book Review: Disrupting the Game
Very interesting article on the difference between tracking reduction and tracking evasion from the point of view of privacy. The author points out that a user may become more unique (and thus more identifiable) when attempting to hide their identity only partially.

I wonder if there are certain attributes that when normalized actually make a user harder to identify even though its only partially hiding their identity? For instance, does fudging the user-agent headers to make it seem like I am on a more common device help or worsen assuming other info remains the same?
They just made their customers do the work for them
Around second grade, something odd happened to me: I discovered I had a photographic memory. For a while I was a trick pony who could read an entire book page once then recite it verbatim. I couldn't understand why other people couldn't do this.

Then, a year or so later...it stopped. Not all at once; it became gradually harder and harder to do it, and one day I realized the ability was gone.

As all of this was happening, I happened to read Flowers for Algernon. It gripped me, and for many years I was afraid that the same thing was happening/would happen to me...I'd gradually become 'dumber and dumber' until I couldn't do anything. It scared the hell out of me.

As an adult in my 50s, I sometimes have random episodes of 'photographic' memory--I'll recall a page from book I read years ago, or an entire conversation from high school. I can't control it--it's entirely random. Seeing this book again brings back a mild echo of that anxiety I had about it. To this day, I just can't read it again.
Probably the travel ban for lower classes is part of how you create Pax Mongolia.
"Disposable income" is undefined, its super vague and we can't determine anything with that phrase

I don't know if this is too slow of an attack to count, but you could build an automated lockpicking machine that would iterate over the possible pin height combinations. If a fast robotic machine could input & test one key pattern per second, it would find the correct pattern in 12.96 hours or less. One pattern per second should be quite feasible. Here's an example video that shows how robots can move very quickly while maintaining submillimeter precision: https://youtu.be/SVuOWwL410U?t=7
It's the usual corporate doublespeak.
To say that any of those 6 things are better ways to make money than selling software is simply not true.

Because computers are for nerds (the bigger it is, the MORE computer it is); only boys should be nerds; therefore, girls select against using computers. It sucks.
