There is a chance that this fork could be similar to egcs, following the same trajectory as "Nim done better" evolving into "the current Nim variant/implementation".

Conservative improvements like specifying some dark corners better can attract users (more than flamboyant novel features), and correction of bugs can retain them.
That's a very accurate statement for what it was like 5 to 10 years ago. But nowadays with resets, saner modern browser APIs, polyfills, build steps, and frameworks, compiled into starter projects, it's much more systematic.
as you might know, it's also about bandwidth and latency. LEO satellites can be an enabler for a lot of remote operation, IF (and this is a big IF) latency remain small also with intersatellite links, and connection reliability is comparable to GEO
Here's more details about it: https://mlexmarketinsight.com/news-hub/editors-picks/area-of... - some of the EU antitrust questions:

"It is also querying companies on AV1's compatibility with other video codec standards, such as whether a smartphone or a browser can support both AV1/VP9 and competing codecs HEVC and VVC simultaneously."

"And if AV1 were to turn into a new market standard, the commission asked, what would be the impact on companies’ ability to compete with AV1’s AOM licensing conditions, and their incentives to work on alternative video codec technology that may be non-royalty free?"

"Brussels is trying to understand the rationale of companies that didn't choose AOM and instead have chosen to license the AV1 and VP9 standard-essential patents through Sisvel's pool."

One very simple feature that most job boards seem to lack is to filter out companies; if, after checking out one position, someone decides they don't want to work for a specific company, it makes little sense to still show them all the other positions.

> And it's worth noting that addition of pointers is only really a trivial op in non-segmented architectures without any kind of pointer tagging anyways. The window on that assumption opened with 32bit archs and will probably close soon as CPU security primitives evolve.

It was trivial on char* in the 16 bit segmented days (artihmetic was only applied to the offset part of the pointer, if you had a far pointer at all), unless you absolutely needed the huge memory model, which was discouraged anyway because of its slowness. What it did mean though, was that code and data lived in something akin to separate address spaces. But portable modern C code usually doesn't use performance tricks like self-modifying code anymore anyway, because even if it wasn't problematic it wouldn't really be needed anymore.

It may be a non-issue for some developer folks out on here.

However, navigating the scary BIOS menus, in a foreign language, with technical jargon even I can't always understand (and I do assemble my desktops from parts). Even keeping running Ubuntu (or Fedora or whatever) on a new laptop would probably not happen for many non-technical folks, if this sort of 1990s level dark arts boot time shenanigans were encountered.

At least that's my experience with relatives and friends who need computers for non-technical work or entertainment. Not all, but most have found Linux overall nicer user experience than Windows, so this would be a net negative development. Defaults matter, so this is definitely an issue in my opinion!
That's a false dichotomy if I ever saw one.
Changing the setting and booting an OS signed with the 3rd party signing key will result in a different PCR 7 measurement, which will result in the TPM refusing to release any secrets that would be required for the system to boot.

I'm curious to understand if and when inter-satellite links can reduce the latency of a starlink connection
People have been warning this for a decade and nobody listened.

But I am shocked to know Lennart "Systemd" Poettering is working for Microsoft.

To be fair with Microsoft, they are only following Red Hat's playbook.

Red Hat has been doing this for 3 decades: they pay for conferences, they donate for projects and they hire developers working in such projects.

This was how Red Hat took influence over almost the entire Linux desktop stack: GTK, Gnome, Flatpack, Wayland, Systemd, Pulseaudio and many others fundamental pieces of software have their development process controlled by Red Hat employees.

Microsoft is just following what already worked.
> That is a problem readily solved by serial testing. False positive rate is reduced exponentially by the number of tests.

This depends. There are two ways a test might deliver the wrong result:

(A) It should have delivered the right result, but somewhere along the line something happened the wrong way.

(B) The test correctly assessed the instrumental variable, but -- in this subject -- the instrumental variable did not reflect the variable of interest in the manner that it usually does.

That is, many medical tests are not actually testing for the outcome we care about. They're testing for something that is usually related to the outcome we care about, because we don't know how to test for the real thing, or we do know how but the reliable test is far more invasive, or some such. There is a very accessible example of this kind of thing right now - you can take a sample from someone and test for the presence of covid. Or you can test for the presence of covid antibodies. Those variables are related, but different, and we care about the presence of the virus a lot more than we care about the presence of antibodies.

If the test is failing in way (B), retests will not reduce the false positive rate, because it's actually a true positive that is being misinterpreted. Retesting will only solve failures of type (A). For type (B), you'd have to apply a different kind of test, and that might not be worth it if the first test is unreliable enough. Imagine an unreliable test where the reliable followup requires a bone marrow sample.

Terrible.
I think it is usually accompanied by an implication that your replacement may have fewer reservations than you do, constructing a moral dilemma.

It's like when a political figure resigns for ethical reasons. Does the message of the resignation really have more impact than having someone inside the organisation working for what they believe in, however futile it may be? There's never a shortage of sycophants.

From the wikipedia link:

>The Bangladeshi Declaration of Independence was broadcast from Chittagong by members of the Mukti Bahini—the national liberation army formed by Bengali military, paramilitary and civilians. The East Bengal Regiment and the East Pakistan Rifles played a crucial role in the resistance. Led by General M. A. G. Osmani and eleven sector commanders, the Bangladesh Forces waged a mass guerrilla war against the Pakistani military.

The Bangladeshi military organized the resistance. It was not a simple civilians-with-guns-rising-against-tyranny scenario.
Is AI generation the next platform shift?
Tesla has never used LIDAR. New Tesla's don't have radar either. But pre 2021 Tesla's use radar to measure the distance to moving objects. But the radar is fairly wide angle and for that reason items that are not moving are excluded from consideration because they can be billboards or buildings beside the road. This limitation also applies to radar use by other manufacturers for emergency braking sensors.

The old ones (ivy bridge) are fine (for that generation). Current ones have regressed on several axes (worse keyboards, trackpads, soldered components), and have not really improved in any meaningful way. They still use poor screens, poor webcams (which are slowly being upgraded now due to macs), no ecc memory etc. Thinkpads are doing the bare minimum, nothing else.

This is great :-)
Excited to try this out!
I found the book's tones to be insufferably annoying.
E.g. I rarely abstract http calls or endpoints, because APIs tend to have nuances and to account for them I have to add more parameters than is worth. So I have a full-blown snippet from which I delete irrelevant parts.

Another example is little utilities like a promise as a semaphore (by lifting resolve() to the scope). It could go as a utility function without parameters, but then I’d have to maintain that utility module across projects, which makes it extremely fragile, and force other people to deal with it.
Booting via Shim will result in different PCR 7 values, which mean you can ensure that the OS won't boot if an attacker has subverted a signed version of Shim to execute Windows rather than the expected OS.
> Disabling UEFI Secure Boot has been step 1 for installing Linux for as long as UEFI had existed, hasn't it?

Do you also log in to a desktop shell as root? Use "hunter2" as your SSH password? Run every random thing you download from the Internet?

Almost every sensible distro has been supporting secure boot for ages, and on things like Ubuntu it should just work out of the box, without the user ever noticing unless they dug. This is what TFA is complaining about - Lenovo broke it.
Surely, being the party of law and order, the tories have had time enough to sort all this out?

This is defense-in-depth level stuff.
Our front end devs were drawing diagrams of react components with arrows everywhere. All the app is doing are some fairly basic forms with a bit of validation. NPM install to get the thing running on a development machine, and it seems to download half of the internet. What an absolute shitshow "full stack" development is these days.
Why would we make that assumption? It isn't mentioned anywhere in the article and FSD Tesla's, despite the hype and publicity, are a tiny fraction of the Model S's on the road.
The board will be like: "Let's invest money into that 1% of customers who like to refund purchases!".
Microsoft absolutely still sign the binaries, and do not issue certs. Everything signed with the 3rd Party UEFI CA was signed by Microsoft, not any third party.
While there is not a whole lot of substance in the article, it's not unreasonable to assume that insects are capable of nociception. Even single-celled organisms like amoebas can show an injury response, because it makes sense evolutionarily to be able to react to harmful environments. That insects produce some of the same neurochemicals as higher animals is also not surprising - these pathways have been evolving for a long time. Of course, they tend to grow in complexity with the rest of the organism.

What the article gets wrong, I believe, is the ethical dimension. I would make the argument that for an organism having nociceptors and pain responses is not enough to assume capacity for suffering as we know it (which granted is always a big caveat). I could write a program for a simple robot that shows a pain response. That's not enough.

The missing component here is a brain capable of suffering in a meaningful way. Personally, I suspect there is no convenient limit value for this as you go up the ladder of brain complexity. It's just one big muddy gradient. Where a person draws these lines is almost arbitrary: for example, I don't really care about the well-being of a moskito, but starting with spiders I feel increasingly guilty for not helping them when they're in trouble.
Depends on what you mean by language design. The interesting parts of modern language design, imo, is around type systems, invariants that the compiler manages, concurrency models, verification, memory models, etc.

The 30 lines or so just demonstrates on a very high level how you walk a tree. Sure, it's a good demonstration, but if you handed those 30 lines and their accompanying explanation to an intro undergrad class they would still have very little idea about how to go about building interpreters beyond a high-level idea of recursively evaluating subtrees, which I would argue is probably the least interesting part about building interpreters. It's a foundational concept, yes, but not much beyond that.

In my mind a good springboard for language design would be a fast tour through a bunch of interesting languages, of which scheme would be one of many. Haskell, Rust, C, Scheme, Erlang, Smalltalk, OCaml, etc all combined would be a wonderful exploration of both the history and major debates around how programmers write and think about code.

A good springboard around the implementation of languages would be to actually go through and build an interpreter for scheme in C. This can cover lexing, a simple recursive descent parser, tree-walking interpreter, mark-and-sweep GC, TCO detection, CPS transformations, etc.

The natural follow-up is then building the mid-backend targeting a bytecode VM. This will also include the major code analysis areas like tree-shaking, data-flow analysis, dependency analysis, etc. Targeting a real ISA is less interesting imo because at that point you're dealing more with the peculiarities with x64/ARM/whatever than with general code analysis techniques, but there's still valuable lessons to be learnt here.

Anyways, all the long tangent to say that tree-walking interpreters are such a small part of language design and implementation that I personally don't see the value in talking about it too much. Yes, it's elegant, yes, it's fundamental, but the concept is simple and not really that interesting imo.

this stuff is freaky. at college when the hk protests were at their height, some taiwanese students put up a public art display to raise awareness about the protests and the chinese government. the very next day, it was gone, apparently torn down overnight by a group of chinese students.

With a few exceptions, yes, it will likely hurt your long term prospects.

The reason is pretty straightforward. If I, as a manager, see that you have a history of 1-2 year tenures, It's sensible for me to assume that that's what you'll do at my company too. The more senior the position, the longer term the work usually is. So, if you're making decisions for 5-10 years but are only going to be around for 2, what's the likelihood you'll be making good long term decisions rather than good (for your resume) short term decisions?

There are, of course, exceptions to this. If, say, you specialise in turning around failed departments then serial short tenures may well make perfect sense. But, in general, the shorter the expected tenure, the lower the expected benefit vs cost.

Of course, that's not to say that hiring someone who has 10 years at a previous company means that they'll stay forever. But, as a hiring manager, you're taking plenty of risks as it is. It's usually safer to hire someone with a few reasonably long tenures all things considered. And that's really the point. If the rest of your resume is outstanding for the role, then I may just accept that I have you for 2 years tops. But if it's on a par with the market then I have little incentive to hire you versus someone less risky.

Source, am reasonably senior manager at a large company and have hired a lot of people over the years.
>“ many of these folks won’t be able to sell the shares they earned.

i don't see any problem here. Just do a short sell. Not being an employee anymore makes you not a subject to the short-selling prohibition for employees, doesn't it? When you get access to your long shares you can close your short simultaneously with selling the same amount of the long.
Has there been a trojan found in the Debian, Ubuntu or RedHat repositories? If so, I haven't heard about it, and neither did Google -- and I've been using these one way or another for 27 years now.

I suppose Arch/AUR might have had one. But there's a huge difference between a Windows store, which publishes author-provided executable files as-is, and Debian / Ubuntu / RedHat repositories which are all built from source.

> If the schools progressiveness is that exceptional, it wouldn't be a surprise if other parents did the same.

Then there's another possibility - how many parents sent their kids to this school specifically because their kids already at age 5 were questioning their assigned gender-normative identity, and the parents wanted the kids to be in a safe place to explore that identity?

We don't have a clue, because all of these details are missing from the essay except for the conclusion.

> Scenarios like this, even if it's made up, can teach us a lot.

I would rather spend my time understanding real case histories rather than made up ones.

Even according to this essay, there's no need to teach kids "how to distinguish between transgenderism and puberty", only to teach kids that puberty makes some people feel uncomfortable with their body as certain parts are growing and changing shape.

Which is already what competent sex education does.

That knowledge would have been enough that if a kid hears someone say "if you feel uncomfortable in your body, it means you are transgender" then they can see the conflicting statements.

And, honestly, do you think kids would hear a statement like that and believe it? Repeated lessons on "Don't do drugs" and "Don't have sex outside of marriage" didn't work, yet this one somehow does?
> the inherent absence of some patents required for the standard/implementation to function in initial patent pool

I guess this is the disconnect; AOMedia worked very hard during standardization to avoid infringing existing patents held by non-members. There is a very strong belief that Sisvel’s claims on AV1 are fundamentally invalid, and while that would be nice to prove in court, Sisvel’s members arent stupid enough to directly sue anyone that can seriously fight back. Thus, the terms to license the actually essential patents to at least limit the damage Sisvel can do.

Anyway VVC is already technologically superior for anyone that wants a competing standard. If it fails, that’s 100% on the behavior of HEVC patent holders, not because of AOMedia.

Key quote here; a good practice is to never trust e.g. USB sticks.
It could also be that open source/free software has become so successful that Microsoft can't avoid bumping up against it anymore. The issue to fear, in my view, is legislation that would potentially eviscerate open source licensing models.

Microsoft, Red Hat, others providing money to open source initiatives is a double edged sword with good and potentially bad side effects.

I think you're letting perfect be the enemy of good, which is how the OP got into this mess.

Obviously it's best to meet when the woman is 28 and the man is 32. Then have kids when she is 31-35. The OP didn't do this and is now a bit stuck.

The OP is no longer able to attract the men she used to so she has to find a compromise she can live with. Older men are an option, ugly men are an option broke men are an option. The men she wants are choosing women exactly like her, but 10-15 years younger

Probably she's going to pick the default which is no kids or use a sperm donor.
