Nah, the frequencies are stil around there, they're all too high to hear, but GSM used TDM - time division multiplex.

To simplify, up to 7 users (+1 timeslot for signalling) share the same channel/frequency, but each of them is allowed to transmit only 1/8 of the time (even less, due to guard intervals). This basically means, that your phone transmitted for a bit over 0.5 milliseconds (577us), then waited quietly for 7 more intervals like that for other devices to transmit, then your phone transmitted again, and the affected speakers "buzzed" because of these 577ms bursts of power every 4.616 milliseconds (this causes a buzz in the frequency range we can actually hear).
This is what I think about every time I hear that phrase.

It Was A Dark And Stormy Night
by Snoopy

Part I

It was a dark and stormy night. Suddenly, a shot rang out! A
door slammed. The maid screamed.
Suddenly, a pirate ship appeared on the horizon!
While millions of people were starving, the king lived in
luxury. Meanwhile, on a small farm in Kansas, a boy was growing up.

Part II

A light snow was falling, and the little girl with the tattered
shawl had not sold a violet all day.
At that very moment, a young intern at City Hospital was making
an important discovery. The mysterious patient in Room 213 had
finally awakened. She moaned softly.
Could it be that she was the sister of the boy in Kansas who
loved the girl with the tattered shawl who was the daughter of the
maid who had escaped from the pirates? The intern frowned.
"Stampede!" the foreman shouted, and forty thousand head of cattle
thundered down on the tiny camp. The two men rolled on the ground
grappling beneath the murderous hooves. A left and a right. A left.
Another left and right. An uppercut to the jaw. The fight was over.
And so the ranch was saved.
The young intern sat by himself in one corner of the coffee shop.
He had learned about medicine, but more importantly, he had learned
something about life.

My uneducated brain cannot tell the practical difference between them, can you or anyone knowledgeable please explain like I'm 5?
For 2, APIs exist. It is up to the apps to use them.

So if you were PM, the ball would be on your side.

I want to agree with you, but actually can't.
He should not be responsible. Because he already failed - he should have had that under control while he was working on it, from the very first day. Not on his notice period.

We push a mentality of devops and the whole team (regardless of their position) being responsible for the final product. Push interdisciplinary attitude, where fine defined borders of each team/job fade. That developer IS responsible for that and if it's not covered by the time of his notice period it means both him and his management failed in some extent.
What you say makes sense, but that gives the weird conundrum of whether only evil people would ever get that rich?
> Mandatory registration for war!

Conscription registration is already mandatory in countries that have it, and indeed was in the US when the draft existed.
> Nitpick: Fair use isn't an exemption from copyright, it's a defense for violating copyright)

Nitpick: Fair use is both a Constitutional and statutory (the latter codifying the former) limitation on the exclusive rights granted as part of copyright, so it's definitely an exception.

Procedurally, it operates as a defense, but that's not inconsistent with it being an exception.
yesterday, I tried oculus quest 2 for the first time and I can tell you that we are really far away from having this in our daily life. I'm talking about decades.
That chimes with my experience in the UK.

I personally call ( ) "round brackets" to try and be a bit more explicit about which kind of bracket I mean, but I don't think that's a very common turn of phrase. Similarly I've picked up calling { } "brace brackets" from programming.
I mean, they're already third or fourth in Europe; it doesn't seem unreasonable that they'd fall behind in the US as well.
GitLab UI is full of warts though. Since they are there for 5+ years I doubt they will be fixed soon. I am talking about little things - weird button-with-dropdown to start a comment/discussion on a MR, infuriating emojis (no I don't want to put a sign :man-kissing-a-man: just because I entered a smiley) and similar. It looks like either their devs are not using the product or any change is hampered by red tape.

Still, we use it, but try to use just core functionality (git, CI, issues, wiki) and avoid anything else. Always wanted to try gitea, maybe now it's the time.
Looks like they're just missing a usable Bluetooth driver under an acceptable license.
Not really, speakers just reacted to the bursts of power, because the transmission frequency is way too high for us to hear.

GSM uses time division multiplex, which means it shares the 8-timeslot channel with 6 more devices (7 devices + 1 signalling), meaning your phone transmits for 577us, then waits quietly for all the 7 timeslots that other devices use (so, for 4.039 milliseconds - 7x577us), and again transmits for 577us, and again waits. Bursts of power every ~4.6milliseconds make a noise that we can actually hear at a bit over 200Hz.
Code pilot can offer code, but can the recipient use it. Some licenses are not compatible. When copilot offers code does it link to that codes license?

Interesting. This isn't to argue against that experience, but I still have and regularly use a wireless Logitech mouse that's at least around a decade old. I had my previous one for years in daily use as well, although I can't remember how it failed or why I replaced it.

I wonder if they've changed something about the buttons.

My best friend's son drowned at 5. To say it was devastating would be a severe understatement.

Now, over a decade later, he still gets deeply depressed around two days - the day his son died, and the day his son was born.
Or spend non-cash money - i.e. debit or credit cards. You can buy prepay credit cards that you top up with cash but I wonder how long those will exist?
I'd struggle to beat the supermarket frozen garlic blocks on price.

My local supermarket sells the 400g bags of frozen minced garlic at £0.95.
The same supermarket sells 4 fresh garlic bulbs weighing approx. 280g for £0.99.
True but that gives the question: what does this type of wealth (on the stock market but factually even in estates) even mean?
They do have stocks worth let's say 50 Billion, but this is all on paper. If they wanted to realize this money they would have to sell those stocks but there are just that many rich people on Earth who could buy those stocks. So if ALL wanted (or had) to use that money (existing on paper) there would be nobody to buy the stocks, and they would be worth nothing (or much less) immediately.
So part of the whole stay rich scheme surprisingly has to be the fact of being only this rich because you try to preserve your wealth.
If all of these guys would have to pay now 5% of their wealth then all of these people would have to sell 5% of their shares. But who would buy those shares then? So their shares would suddenly drop in value and they would have that much less money (on paper).
So this whole operation is basically self-supporting and even if it's morally wrong, to be honest this wealth wouldn't even exist if not for these people having to preserve it.
He does very well at the gamer and general tech consumer perspectives. He doesn't talk about the developer perspective much, but when he does it's fine, nothing incorrect from what I've seen. He does talk about the video-based creative side quite a lot particularly for larger video teams, and that content always seems to be excellent – but I guess that's to be expected as his company is essentially a medium sized video production company so they've got a ton of real-world experience.

MacOS and Windows never gave direct socket and well-defined protocol to the display server. If you wanted to connect, you had to use their client libs.

Turns out, you can handle many cases in the linked libraries and if you do not have them, and you cannot change the protocol, touch luck. Sledgehammer time.
Maybe it's also different levels of carbonation, there are definitely at least 2 brands of locally available water that I can pick out. One just tastes a little bit off (and is REALLY carbonated) and the other one is so salty you can only stomach it when you're used to it. My parents used to buy the brand and only after not drinking it for a few years I was unpleasantly surprised...

But in general, yeah - uncarbonated ones I've never ever tasted any difference to local tap water.

the last week in Hamburg was the worst (at least monday through thursday) for me personally. Although the temperatures were only between 22° and 27° C, because of its way higher humidity than was usual decades ago my body just couldn't cope. I was tired all the time (and my head felt mushy) and needed lots of water. That's no way I wanna live. There are only two options: AC (which is not usual in German homes; but will probably become so) or leaving. It will only get worse in the years to come; I honestly dread the summers to come.

Thankfully it rains today.
The current situation is not in any way desperate. All claims that a desperate crisis exists are based on the assumption of feedback loops that do not yet show up in any actual data and in fact many temperature datasets e.g. from satellites, weather balloons or the USA's own state of the art surface temperature network show virtually no warming at all for decades. To see warming you have to look at heavily modified composite datasets that are constantly being revised using methodologies so extreme that they literally create entirely new trends where the raw data doesn't contain any.

In an environment with as much epistemic uncertainty as climatology has, it is madness to allow bureaucrats to control anything at all. They are in no way fit to make important decisions on scientific topics.
This website appears to be based in Europe, is that where all the imageboard trolls live?
The thing that worries me here is that supporters of free software wants to strengthen copyright. I would have thought that most were against IP in general or at least in favor of making it weaker. Is protecting your code against Copilot really worth giving this weapon to Disney?

>how the philosophy that at least tries to remain consistent with the ideal of not aggressing on the life, liberty, or property of others receives some of the most derisive comments.

If you combine the libertarian idea that a property owner can fully control what happens to their property along with the idea that the right to contract is absolute what happens when the entity that owns the road in front of my home says I can no longer use it unless I shop only at his stores?

A lot of libertarian ideas simply do not work when combined together due to human nature to enrich themselves at the expense of others.

Well, THAT has a Dropout-like HULU miniseries written all over it.
Debatable. It makes sense to say "the first element", regardless of mathematical connotations. We've had this kind of expression in almost every language across the world long before we invented multiplication.

Saying the "the zeroth element" is just... weird and slightly nonsensical.
> What if I also told you that memorising facts is not the same as learning?

That is hopefully obvious to anyone that had a decent education.

That learning through teaching works is also obvious to anyone who tried. I didn't know Feynman advocated for this, but I discovered it when I was an undergrad. To prepare for (oral) exams, I would find an empty classroom and repeat proofs and theorems and explain concepts to an imaginary audience. It felt easy and forced me to clarify the logical flow of everything I studied.

Another aspect is when I was giving private lessons to younger students in need of help. This was very cool because I reviewed subjects that I wasn't quite ready to understand when I first studied them. For example when teaching thermodynamics to a guy, that was the first time I really felt I had understood it properly, because by that point I had other tools (statmech).
> so 2/3 for them I suppose

In Zürich, a monthly city ticket is around $50, and a monthly country wide public transport ticket is $340 (and really gets you almost everywhere). Annual tickets are slightly cheaper.

I would argue while not "very cheap", the prices are still reasonably cheap, especially when compared to reoccurring car costs.
>Tell me it’s originalism to interpret the words above in any way other than what it reads as: a description of state militias

Regulated means armed with military grade guns, and is not a description of legal oversight (eg regulations)

"A well regulated Militia" literally meant a military armed citizenry.

The intent was to have no paid or professional military and the military was to consist of citizens bringing their arms from home to fight with.

2nd amendment can be losslessly paraphrased:

"because it is important to form well armed mobs, every Joe wacko can have military grade arms"
LOL nonsense, blunt knives aren't dangerous. That's just more of the same toxic attitude.
I know little about China but briefly worked with a smart Chinese developer and what they said has always stuck with me.

They left China as it was to hard to find a job. There’s 1.4 billion people with lots now highly educated. With so many highly educated people the competition is huge so the best thing they could do is leave as less competition. This is coming from someone who was smart saying the competition was huge, to much.

If it’s true or not I don’t know. There is 1.4 billion people and from what I see it seems big on tech but as westerners and huge langauage/cultural differences where pretty out the loop.
Their innovation is solely rooted in behavioral psychology.

I’m not a fan of Facebook. I don’t even have an account. But it would be unfair to say they haven’t come up with some truly innovative approaches to large scale infrastructure.

Also, to their credit they are huge supporters of open source. For example the Open Compute Project is still alive and well in large data halls. They are also still supporting the Telecom Infra Project which is responsible for OpenRAN as well as their Open DWDM hardware.

Does all of this work in their favor to support their own business? Absolutely. But that can also be said for every tech company in some form or fashion. But, they still open source it which is way more than a lot of other shops can say.
sounds more like this is on Apple which systematically designs their bluetooth devices such that they exhibit uncooperative interfacing. f.x. my airpods won't connect to my Linux notebook (Sony, Bose - all work). my iPhone won't connect to my TomTom navi (various Android smartphones - no problem). same for hotspot settings which refuse connection from Android. Apple is a digital bully.

furthermore I am using a Logitech MX Anywhere 3 mouse via bluetooth and at the same time use either Bose QC35 or EarBuds also via bluetooth. no problem. so that's that ...
So they basically object to inventing any new ways to create value out of OSS besides direct reusing.

They should rename themselves to Technical Progress Level Conservancy or something like that.
In a slight oversimplification of geopolitics, any company can be pressured by either Russia, China or the US. From the last two decades we have plenty of reports of all three of them happily abusing this power.

The best you can do to stay up to date on what's happening is listening to all three sides. Kaspersky can't speak out against Russia, but at the same time they are free (and probably encouraged) to expose cybersecurity threats coming from Western governments; which most Western cybersecurity companies seem to be unable or unwilling to talk about.

I think it does. I don't remember the bugs being nearly so bad back in the 1960s and 1970s as they are now where I live, but I never have to clean off the windshield of my car. When I was a youth we would fight for the privilege of squeegeeing the windshield at every gas fill-up. Now, it's hard to go out without drawing a cloud and even the dog wants to stay inside in the summer.

I suspect automobile aerodynamics play a bigger role in the windscreen index reduction than ecological destruction does.

Interesting! In De Filippo et al., they mention that Bacteroidetes sp are absent in urban Europeans, but present in rural Africans; in the OP they mention a similar sounding Bacteroides being present in chimps but not in humans. Is there any similarity between these apart from their similar spelling?
Frozen veg is usually healthier and fresher than "fresh". The only reason to avoid it is because the texture changes. If you're making a casserole or anything where "crunch" doesn't matter then there's no reason not to use frozen.
Something I believe is that persistent satire and sincere belief are indistinguishable in many settings, and that persistent application of satire tends to cultivate sincere belief in the same thing as the idea spreads around. Not that I think Italians look down on Hawaiian pizza as a result of satire, that's more that Italians often see a national dish that's been heavily evolved overseas in a negative light, and Hawaiian pizza is the shining example of it to be seized upon. Chicago Deep Dish being another.
But online it's definitely an issue - Ironic shit-posting of dumb things eventually leads to areas chock full of people with those exact beliefs for real. That's how meme magic works. Meme something, no matter how dumb, persistently enough, and it'll enter the collective conscious as a sincerely held belief.
I'd love to hear the history of it, because my understanding was that the 2.4 GHz band would be useless for long-distance communication even without microwave ovens, due to atmospheric attenuation. That is, 2.4 GHz is useful for microwave ovens and useless for long-distance radio for the same reason, because they are easily absorbed by water.
Things in the realm of anti abortion and pro death penalty break down when you get down to the root of things, which is free will and innocence of the unborn soul

From my understanding that's what is behind both of these ideologies, and both of those things are 100% made up fiction

There is literally no evidence for an immaterial soul and there is actually evidence that free will is an illusion, but the people who believe things things have their beliefs rooted in religion
Yes, because language developed at a time where people didn't know about zero.

Great piece. I personally distinguish a difference between audiences and customers: the former is/should be when your ideal (performance) self is aligned with the attention of others; the latter is when you shape your self/offer to the expectations of others.

The culinary arts are second only to the world of audiophiles in being seriously in need of some double-blind tests to dispell long-standing myths.

The trouble is some myths are true. I have a strong hunch about a few that aren't but I'd love to see a TV show that tested some pundits to actually tell the difference.
That actually makes a lot of sense. To be honest just as an idea that also means that "early adopters" could also mean "first customers at a super low price".
Probably less people wants to try something untried, yet, then people want to try something super cheap that they actually need. Also then you can go to your real market and not the market of "beta testers" which will not necessarily give you the correct audience.
So one way to gain your first 100 people is probably to actually SELL IT, but at an extreme discount to your real future audience.
I even offered a lifetime free licence for the first 100 sign-ups who starts using it. (You loose little as they don't necessarily use it later but they do jump to the free business.)

> Regarding the symbolics, that seems highly unlikely as lisp is not an object oriented language

The Symbolics Genera operating system is largely written in object-oriented style using the Flavors OO-extension. Since the early machines had a micro-programmable CPU, there were with new operating system releases also new CPU extensions to support new Lisp, OOP or logic language (Prolog) features.

Beyond that: Lisp originally used 'generic operations' in a non-OO sense. For example the + operation works for all the kinds of numbers (integer + integer, float + float, integer + float, integer + complex, ... and so on). The CPU determines at runtime which operation runs. Thus there is only one generic ADD instruction and not per-type instructions.
