True.

It comes, however, from this:

> The final part of Fedimint is the use of two powerful technologies, federations and chaumian e-cash mints, to remove any single weak point and to maintain complete privacy for all users, and is the reason behind Fedimint’s unusual name. A federation is a mechanism that shares custody of the group’s bitcoin amongst all guardians. This ensures that a majority of guardians need to act to perform a transaction and that a failure of a minority of guardians can be tolerated by the system without affecting its operation. Chaumian e-cash mints are a cryptographic tool to allow the federation guardians to process transactions on behalf of any member of the group without knowing who it is or how much they have. This ensures financial privacy even though group members have delegated the complicated task of managing their bitcoin holdings to the guardians.

The whole Apache license isn't very long but this is mostly the extent of your obligations: "You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and attribution notices from the Source form of the Work, excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of the Derivative Work."

Apache is a non-copyleft license. Copyleft licenses like the GPL also require that any code changes, derivative works code, etc. needs to be made available if the software is distributed.

However, you can absolutely charge for support, etc. (But I can't assert copyright over code I didn't actually write.)

>Is there any kind of license that protects the interest of opensource developers

If by "protects the interest" you mean forces consumers of the code to pay them or allows them to restrict who uses their code, then pretty much no. The Open Source Definition as it stands pretty much excludes those kind of restrictions. The developers could of course just choose a proprietary license instead if they want to control how their code is used.
That is unbelievable, and people wonder why the trust in the media is at all time low.
That's actually substantially higher than I would have imagined. Bootstrapping a business by yourself (and especially doing it like most of those people where it is not something you aren't usually committing full time to) to that mark is incredibly impressive.
Those machines with like a 100 cores were miserable, they were all super slow. So it’s only useful if you have c code or something fast. Any kind of webserving code ran faster on a dual core amd machine
My aunt owned a cyber about that time. Instead of spending my free time playing in the (dangerous) streets of Brazil, I spent it playing Warcraft III, CS and surfing the web. Yes, I don't remember exactly when but I think I was, at most, 5 years old?
This isn't really a good comparison. We have the same number of Disneylands and MLB teams that we did in 1960 with double the population. Not to mention increased international tourism to a place like Disneyland. And a box of candy, tub of popcorn, and sodas have gotten significantly bigger than 1960.

A lot of places like LA are significantly worse than they used to be. But flyover country still has pretty cheap living. My local Six Flags + Water Park season pass including parking was $80 per head this year as an example. That's a lot cheaper than $1k for a single visit to Disneyland.
> benefit of suburbia

I'll be moving soon, it's starting to get a little hairy around here. There have been a few incidents in the past few years involving drug addicts. One crashed into a utility pole on my property, another crashed into mine and several cars parked on the street and was arrested screaming on my neighbors lawn. The convenience store across the street has overdoses happening on a regular basis that EMS responds to. We often get accosted by people for money when we walk over there. Point being it's nothing like Stranger Things my kid can't ride a bike around town here.

That said I can move about an hour or two into the middle of Pennsylvania close to the area I grew up in and it's like what you picture. It's also about half the price in terms of home values and that's not factoring in the larger minimum lot sizes. This is a great starter home for a young family, but once my daughter is older I want her to live in a place were she won't have to deal with this crap.
It's the same bunch of crappy incentives wherein poorly designed welfare and safety nets incentivize people to work under the table and live crappy lives. Nobody wants to work harder to better their life when a huge fraction of the fruit of such labor gets taken from them.

Pick up any sociology book from the 1970s and it'll explain it in detail.

All these statistics suffer from the inequality in the US. I guess that if you take total disposable income the number 1 is correct. But if you go look at the reality, it is a minority that controls that total disposable income, while most of the population lives paycheck to paycheck and increasingly don't have money even to buy food.

The US price increased 20% (999->1199). The change in exchange rate between USD and EUR adds another 10 percentage points. So the new price in EUR should* be about 30% more. The old price was €1229. Add 30% to €1229 and you end up at €1598.

So yes, Apple stiffed us for one Euro on the M2.

*Assuming the old EUR price was "correct" in some sense.

wdym cave in, it's not like Intel integrated technologies pushed on them. Intel developed HDCP and co-developed AACS (the Blu-ray encryption scheme). I dunno how much they had their hand in AACS 2, but considering it's literally built on SGX I'm going to claim without evidence that Intel played a significant role in creating AACS 2.
I quite like the way it sounds. Randomness is difficult, indeed. If you ever want to look at something less random: 1/f noise generates more interesting sequences than white or pink noise.
Interesting. I wonder if this distinction applies within software as well. For example, systems programmers getting paid less than application programmers because the latter makes software "closer" to the user, and backend programmers getting paid less than frontend programmers for the same reason.
I'm all for seeing gender as separate from sex, but this is ridiculous.
SGX is only dropped from consumer SKUs for product segmentation purposes.
Miners cannot use expensive electricity and therefore cannot expand unless they find really really cheap electricity rates.....which are apparently unavailable? lol.

US-based miners use the absolute cheapest they can find, as doing otherwise would make them globally non-competitive, as e.g. miners in Paraguay have access to lots of excess hydroelectricity, or miners in Kazakhstan have access to cheap coal. Since hashing units are more or less the same, it all boils down to electricity costs.

Miners even go as far as using methane from animal waste to find absolute cheapest fuel: https://financefeeds.com/unusual-way-power-crypto-mining-ani...

Burning animal waste methane is actually carbon negative, wonder if anyone on this board will finally acknowledge that mining can be good for the Earth, if done properly.

Come to the Java and .NET world, still used a lot.
Back when Usenet was popular I met a group of people from rec.autos.sport.f1 a couple of times, once for a karting day and once attending the Montreal GP.

I assume similar things still happen these days in Reddit and Facebook groups but I seem to have drifted away from that kind of online activity.

You don’t need famine; a wealthy societal elder is better positioned to marry his or her children and grandchildren into situations where they will have more children and their children will be better provided for. An elder male could continue reproducing by finding additional mates. There is good evidence that male genetic diversity is much lower than we would expect if most of our ancestors were monogamous.

Bugs might reproduce primarily constrained by their LDL uptake but humans are far more complex.

Yeah? And? So? Keep in mind now, that for the most recent CPUs are no longer 8-bit (20 years?), yet 8 bit microcontrollers are all the fad. Not really sure what your point is? We're not allowed to be fascinated with old tech that still works and has merit in demonstrating how/why it worked?
IMHO, it’s very important for papers to lay out the idea lineage and contextualize their incremental progress (analogous to a codebase commit history). For whatever reason, ML seems to prefer the practice of framing each paper as a shiny nugget uniquely disconnected from the ecosystem of ideas, and with is own fancy name (as if it was born a fully developed rockstar).

Imagine isolated code dumps without the shared history leading to nightmare merge conflicts…

I think this makes its really hard for anyone not steeped in experience to parse through the outputs of the spraying firehouse, and organize their thinking rigorously — thereby fragilizing the field’s intellectual output in a vicious cycle.
> But where fans are really getting taken for a ride is in the parking lot.

Parking isn't necessary to see a baseball game at 90% of these venues, and shouldn't be included. Including parking in these comparisons at all demonstrates a lack of understanding of population density and transportation trends over the past 50 years in any city large enough to support a major league baseball franchise. We need to lose this expectation that you just drive your mini-van within 200 feet of any venue with something you want to see.

I relate 100%. Everyone at my current job is sick of the soul-crushing work as a software developer that people just accept as part of the job. The side projects are so fun, we just want to do that for our real job.

Going by the numbers from https://lwn.net/Articles/895800/

Intel is the top documented contributor to the overall kernel (as opposed to the "core" of the kernel, which is defined here has non-driver, non-architecture dependent code) with 11.4%, whereas Oracle has 2.2%.

7.7% are attributed to "unknown", 5.5% as "none", and 2.4% as "consultant". Almost 2/3 of that combined quantity would need to be attributed to Oracle in order to make up the gap, which seems unlikely.

So the definition of "core" seems to be the key factor here. Intel, AMD, IBM, Huawei, Linaro and Red Hat contribute substantial amounts of architecture-dependent code and/or driver code which isn't counted in this metric.

I think in the original analogy, the actual robbery is just used as an event which may occur without our knowledge. Your analogy is better, the mapping makes more sense.

Something like: The locksmith has made a copy of your keys without notifying you. They could hypothetically use those keys to enable a robbery, but you won't know definitively either way until you find something stolen. But it is a pretty weird thing for them to do, right?

> Except there are already POC UEFI level rootkits that can't be detected by the host OS.

I don't see how that changes anything? There are also HDD firmware hacks which can't be detected by the OS. Does that mean we should do away with filesystem security and permissions?

You still have to hack the UEFI to get a rootkit in there. And yes, everything can get hacked. But that's not an excuse not to have security, is it?

> Thus, such systems would appear to function normally to the common users,

Secure boot changes nothing in that scenario. You can also hack the UEFI and install a root kit without the UEFI even supporting secure boot.

> Again, one wrongly assumes a supplier hardware comes into a facility clean in the first place,

If you find supply chain security important, then you should choose your supplier accordingly. That has nothing to do with secure boot.

They were designed to be front end machines, and XML parsers. They were meant to handle the incoming workload and handle a lot of light threads. DB and other CRUD stuff was meant to be offloaded to backend servers with beefier processors.

They had shared FPUs, so anything ALU oriented fell flat on them, even Sun openly admitted that.

So they were not meant to be SMP supercomputer nodes, but to reduce number of front end server counts and allowed datacenter floor to be available for more backend servers and storage.

What problem does this solve: Poor playlists / context switching when you get given something distracting in an ambient music recommendation algorithm. Also, hopefully, it's just nice music to listen to.

You are listening to the music of other people - mine. I made the generators, which were not trained on anyone else's music. It does not 'process tracks that were made by real people'. The paid element of this service goes to me, without X streaming service taking any cuts.

Computer-made generative music has been around since at least the 70's. Outstanding human-made ambient works have been made since then, which people love and continue to listen to. If this draws some attention away from 'actual musicians', then I'm sure they will survive.
Unless you live there, there is nothing you can do about it. Nothing to hack, no news.

This is actually an amazing opportunity for Glassdoor.

Just put a "badge" next to companies known to sue employees who post reviews on Glassdoor.

No reviews are even needed from that point on to signify a shitty company; for all anyone knows all negative reviews may have been taken down through legal action, but the badge stays, signifying that there was at least one review so damaging that they had to get lawyers involved (or that the company climate is of that toxic kind that sues its own disgruntled employees more generally).

In the end suing will end up acting as the ultimate bad review for that company on the site.

After using both Azure and AWS extensively for the last 10 years or so, I'm honestly confused at how some people fall so heavily on the AWS side. Azure UX is clearly superior and far more user friendly as the AWS console is a travesty. The services are much better integrated in Azure and Azure has substantially better PaaS services. It seems people prefer the cloud provider they cut their teeth on and anything else feels awkward and unwieldy. Throw the anti-MS bias prevalent in tech on top, and I guess here we are.

The wildly different allocation of resources and population (on a country border basis) suggests some country will always have the means to be hegemonic (especially if other contenders all decide not to be).

Which in practice means there will always be a hegemony.

If the US ceded its role tomorrow, China would step into it. If China ceded it the day after, Russia or the EU would step into it. (I'm skipping over India and Japan, as both seem to have cultural aversions to strongly projecting power overseas)

All of those, yes.

Networkd is a pain to configure and operate, and interferes with the lower level subsystems. Resolved is a mess that only causes headaches. It might be ok-ish on desktops but honestly I never had an issue with regular /etc/resolv.conf on any of my laptops and desktops. Journald is a (terrible) solution looking for a problem and makes everything more opaque and harder to troubleshoot.

Containerisation and namespacing is a big mess and lacking on basic features. It also doesn't play nice with the core tooling (ip netns, etc).

I like the service units but honestly we could all have done without it. There were already other perfectly usable solutions in that space. I used runit for a while before nearly every distro out there caved to systemd.
Not necessarily to crowd out, but its possible role in the extinction of the Neanderthals would be a good case in point.
