Actually it should be USB4 Gen4x2, because the lane speed is 40 Gbit/s and there are two lanes, but the specification was also updated significantly, which makes USB4 Gen2 and Gen3 USB4 Version 1.0, and the ones after it USB4 Version 2.0.

The good news is that it is backward compatible with USB4 Version 1.0, USB 3.2, USB 2.0 and Thunderbolt 3.
Speedbumps help a bit, but many drivers break down just before the bump and then speed to the next one. Better solution is to design the street for slower traffic. Narrow it down, expand the sidewalks and/or add a bike path, Make speeding uncomfortable and the average speeds will go down.

No leetcode, no whiteboarding, no nonsense. Just a 5 minute recruiter screen, and then two nice ~90 minutes each conversations about the technologies I've used, projects I've contributed to, opinions/approaches, asking me to explain how the stuff I use actually works, etc.

Ended up not working out due to a hiring freeze, but their interviews were refreshing, and I think they got all the information they needed without having to do any of the usual annoying stuff.
Getting kicked off social media is essentially having your ability to engage in public discourse removed, or at least severely restricted.
Well, this backfired. Please, for the love of christ, just read the fucking article before commenting. Also, the New Humanitarian has a lot of interesting articles.
You are wrong. That's exactly the point he is making. That we have to take action against intolerance before it gets to the point of physical violence.

> But we should claim the right to suppress them if necessary even by force; for it may easily turn out that they are not prepared to meet us on the level of rational argument, but begin by denouncing all argument; they may forbid their followers to listen to rational argument, because it is deceptive, and teach them to answer arguments by the use of their fists or pistols.

The thing he wants suppressed here is the act of 'denouncing all argument' and of 'forbidding their followers to listen to rational argument' and of 'teaching them to answer arguments by the use of (force)'. Any of these Quips remind you of anything in modern discourse? They should.

Because he's not interested in seeing if their grab for power is actually going to work or not, before suppressing it.

To continue quoting Popper:

> We should claim that any movement preaching intolerance places itself outside the law and we should consider incitement to intolerance and persecution as criminal, in the same way as we should consider incitement to murder, or to kidnapping, or to the revival of the slave trade, as criminal.

And a lot of the shit on Twitter today is ranges from skirting those lines to stepping right over them. He views this behavior on a spectrum of borderline-to-actual criminal.

If what he was preaching was 'wait for fascists to start beating people/doing the Beer Hall Putsch/invading Poland before doing anything about them', it wouldn't be called The Paradox of Tolerance. There's nothing paradoxical about stopping intolerant violent action after it starts. What's paradoxical is that you have to stop intolerant violent action before it starts, by stopping intolerant non-violent action.
I think you misspelled “unknown” and it came out as “overwhelming”.

All jokes aside, the only benefit of this booster was seen in wildly inconsistent antibody levels of 8 mice. It has never been tested on humans.
I had a decent gaming machine in 2007-2008, and, in particular I remember that Battlefield 2 sounded a LOT better with a soundcard. The difference was night and day.

In particular, EAX (environmental audio extensions), which was a feature of the X-Fi cards, were definitely EOL'd due to Vista's changes around the DirectSound3D APIs.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_Audio_Extensions
Soundcard-like devices called "audio interfaces"[1] -- now usually USB breakout boxes -- are alive and well in the professional audio segment, targeted at musicians, recording studios, video editing shops, and similar applications.

They're not necessary for consumer apps. Consumer audio applications got "good enough" with mass produced builtin motherboard "soundcard on a chips" that basically replicated the function of the old soundcards at a much lower price point.

If you want to, say, connect 16 microphones at once and record to 16 seperate tracks, or you plan to apply a bunch of digital effects and therefore want a much higher sample rate than what your consumer audio chip can do, you can buy an audio interface.

You're engaging in the same sort of "fearmongering" though, by lumping everything together as if they all have the same incentives and goals.

Depending on which part of "the media" you look at, you'll get very different takes on various issues, some with significantly more substance behind them than others.
There already is a 2.0! I've been using it for 20 years.
No. It's not wrong at all. THIS is the obstacle to free expression.

If you want to police actions according to societal laws, that is moral. Policing speech you don't like IS fascist.
Exactly. There should be a tax on vacancy. We've made the 1) mistake of turning a very special need like shelter into a commodity or security vehicle, and 2) this commodity the owner can "hold-out" on in that makes it violate the principles of economics that we all supposedly agreed upon from above that the market is the most fair and best solution for people.

I'm sorry to put this so bluntly, but if you are trying to get this down to "truly 0 risk of kidnapping", there is a very high chance that you are depriving your kid of developmental opportunities in the pursuit of unrealistic risk analysis.
There's a line though. It's called the paradox of intolerance. If we are tolerant of intolerance, then we risk intolerance winning.

So we need to be tolerant of different ways of thinking - EXCEPT - for those ways of thinking that seek to take power to oppress others.

And that, of course, is where things can get sticky. Because we often differ on what constitutes oppression. There are those who believe that any form of taxation is oppression, while most would agree it is necessary for society to function.

There are certain things that we really should all be able to agree constitute oppression however - and top among them is wanting to kill, enslave, or restrict people for nothing more than being who they were born as.

Today, many people seem to equate those who are being intolerant of intolerance with those who are actually being intolerant.
Is there a proper term to encapsulate M1/M2 Macs now that we have the M2? IE Apple Silicon Macs works but is a bit long. MX Macs? M-Series? ARM Macs?
Pretty weak on background. The introduction of LSD to America was mostly thanks to the CIA's search for a 'truth serum' which involved farming out their collection of powerful hallucinogens and other substances to a variety of institutions, from prisons to army bases to prostitution brothels to universities (along with research into things like sleep deprivation, electroshock, sensory isolation, etc.). While it's unlikely the CIA wanted to help kickstart a socially disruptive psychedelic movement (which was notably anti-authoritarian in nature), that was the consequence. The closest the article comes to mentioning this is:

> "In Berkeley, as well as across the bay in Palo Alto, young people seeking a new way to live had begun using LSD to break down conventional social barriers. Until then, the drug had been available in America only to those conducting serious medical research. In 1959, the poet Allen Ginsberg took LSD for the first time, at the Mental Research Institute in Palo Alto. A year later, the novelist Ken Kesey was given acid at the Veterans Hospital in Menlo Park as part of a federally funded program in which volunteers were paid twenty dollars a session to ingest hallucinogens."

As far as the psychedelic movement in general, LSD was only one of several substances, such as mescaline and psilocybin, that came to popular attention via a variety of routes, such as Aldous Huxley's "The Doors of Perception" (1954), and R Gordon Wasson's 1950s-era research into traditional psychedelic mushroom use in Mexico (a research program also secretly funded by the CIA's MK-ULTRA program).

Apparently the members of the CIA's hallucinogen program used to dose each other all the time in the 1950s, until they found it would cause unpredictable behavior in some people - like a sudden attack of psychedelic-inspired moral conscience, see the Frank Olson incident for example. Sort of a 'while tripping my brains out I suddenly realized that manufacturing biological weapons was wrong!' type of story:

> Unless you've worked at a place where you've had access to something like GPFS(or whatever IBM calls it now), where you can put hooks into everything, and programme how you want to mirror/cache/copy namespaces, it all seems impossible.

Do I understand correctly that this would be one possible interpretation of this sentence: If you've only used UNIX, and not something IBM made decades ago, then it seems impossible.

That's hilarious.

We're teaching adults to fear the world.

I think we need to start with everyone.
Your first sentence started out being a very valid point (the West is certainly portrayed in a biased favourable fashion by this article).

But then your 2nd paragraph descends into nonsense... those are not good examples.
I’m genuinely curious why yc would fund this. They already have fivestars in their portfolio that does the same thing from the yc11’ batch.
Should employers be required to retain employees who say things that damage their business?

Are algorithms free speech? Who gets to determine which algorithms I'm allowed to implement to promote or demote comments on my private media platform?

How do you propose altering media incentives without restricting people's freedom of expression? Passing laws?
There is some flexible encoding of terms to images there, too, that would take up some space.

Though I’m not really sure you could decompress the weights in some way to regenerate the 400 million images and metadata.

Students don’t fully grasp concepts at the early stages and they never will. Very few students who master the quadratic formula understand that this formula allows you to factor second degree polynomials. Many students will correctly solve x^2+x+1 = 0 while simultaneously believing that this polynomial doesn’t factor. Here’s a simple problem that tests understanding,

A second degree polynomial with leading coefficient 3 has zeros of -1 and 2. Find all the terms of the polynomial.

Most students can’t do this. Even most calculus students can’t do it.

We teach algorithms like long division and the quadratic formula because they are relatively easy computations to learn but they don’t in any way lead students to fully grasping a concept. It’s only with a certain level of mathematical maturity that one is able to understand the full import of even basic concepts.

I can walk into pretty much any first semester calculus class and ask students to write down an example of an equation with no solution. A large majority will fail to do so. It doesn’t occur to them that 0=1 is such an example. They’ll play around with x’s in various complicated looking expressions. Even something as basic and fundamental as the meaning of an equation eludes people at this level even though they have been dealing with equations for years.

Well, such is my experience teaching math at a community college for over 20 years.
SEEKING WORK | The Netherlands | Remote

Software engineer with a focus on but not limited to backend development.

I have worked on long-running applications with a large codebase and have started projects from scratch. Besides developing software, I have experience with managing and implementing customer software projects, CI/CD, designing software system components, and leading a development team of 7 people. While I am happy to take on projects in any problem domain, I have some domain knowledge in the Dutch healthcare and Dutch pension industry. I work as part of a team most of the time, but am open to solo projects.

Most of my experience lies in Java, C# and Node.js development, but have worked with others and any technology stack is negotiable. On the front end, I have most recently worked with Vue.js, but other frameworks are not uncommon to me. I also have a Master's degree in Artificial Intelligence.

Currently available for ±10hrs/wk. Please contact me for my rate and upcoming availability, or if you simply want to connect or have a chat that's also fine :)

The actual announcement from USB.org [1], I had to go to official source just to make sure this wasn't a joke or prank.

Why didn't they just include it with USB4? It wasn't that long ago. But then I checked on Wiki, [2] turns out it has been three years since the release of USB4 spec 1.0.

I am not even sure if there are that many USB4 motherboard / laptop on the market. I still mostly see USB3.x labels.

And USB4 v2, at 80Gbps will be faster than Thunderbolt 4. This reminded me of Anadntech's [3] discovery of "Thunderbolt 5" and "USB 80G". So will the next version be called Thunderbolt 4 v2? If not, why not just call this new 80Gbps USB ( likely many changes in PHY ) USB5?

Definitely not in these circumstances but the cost is irrelevant to this discussion.

Should employers be able to fire cancer patients who go on sick leave for months or years?

Should employers be able to fire a green man if their clients hate green people?

What matters is where you set the bar for someone losing their means of survival, in what circumstances would you like your neighbour to go homeless: Because he has cancer, because he is green, or because he said something controversial in public.

I don't want any of these, and I believe a healthy society should have strong enough labour laws to put the employee before the employer in these circumstances.
Might they be black swan events because most people are very weary about letting their kids walk around unsupervised?

> Don't worry. I, an engineer, have the solution

I'm ready for the sarcasm

> auto-blocked if you didn't make it past the filter

This, if it could be made people-friendly, would be perfect. Block based on non-real and mis-spelled words to stay a step ahead of anyone trying to evade the filter with "dik", as well as filtering based on phrase, and down to the word. Then just auto-prioritize a list of words on a per-person basis, and let the rest be left as-is.

It may not scale perfectly, but it'll be fun until Match group apes your product, makes it pay-to-play, and puts you out of business.

We need a new conscientious objection.

After the fighting starts, it doesn't matter why the fighting started. It doesn't matter if the fight started over something important. After the fighting starts, whatever you are fighting about seems important.

In wartime objectors may still have had a 'side', they just didn't want to kill people on 'the other side'.

We need to be able to have conversations where 1. we don't intentionally try to shame 'the other side' and 2. 'the other side' does not feel like we are trying to shame them.

A new conscientious objection would mean not participating in conversations about duelling moralities. Don't insult someone else's righteousness, don't try to make them feel shame about political or religious beliefs. You can certainly still feel your own morality, but you don't need to use it like a weapon.

I don't know if this is possible in large groups on the internet. I don't know if it's worth trying in large groups on the internet. It might be worth trying with people you care about on an individual basis and who also have beliefs on 'the other side'

---

"Both sides" is an utterly poisoned phrase. Just because there is a fight with two sides does not imply that either side is righteous, and it certainly does not imply that both sides have points of view worthy of consideration. Sometimes one side is just wrong and the debate is settled.

"Both sides" has been used to justify a lot of hateful speech, and a lot of speech that cannot be scientifically supported. I think people have a limited right to use hateful speech, and non-scientific speech, but not an absolute right to use that in every venue.
