The point is that if your demand-side of the market is actually sensitized to real-time availability concerns, you would see a much better outcome in constrained generation scenarios.

Certainly, additional incentives should be considered to encourage more robust maintenance schedules around generation-side as well. I am absolutely for multiple options here.

I don't think this is a situation where one simple decision solves all of the problems all at once.
Not very well apparently. I tried dropping a simple Json file (10 KV pairs per document) that was an array of about 15K documents. It either took an incredibly long time to render it (waited several minutes) or it rejected the file without telling the user anything!

I also tried it with a small (300 lines) Json Lines file and it doesn't seem to support this format.
Right, that makes sense. I honestly wasn't aware of the Back to the Future inspiration, I watched it as a kid and it was never really my type of movie.

"Ewwww, unions are for dumb rich people and are also corrupt" lmao

Unions are a way for workers to have more bargaining power in their workplace. When one employee sits at a table with their boss, exactly one person is in charge, and exactly one person is at risk of being fired. When multiple workers stand together, they can withhold their valuable labor from their employer. The tables are much more even, and more fruitful bargaining process can take place.

That's just two parties haggling, classic market stuff.
Yes, but that’s not relevant to my point. More profit per employee means more capital for new initiatives means more employees.

This is actually how all gps devices still work, including the latest smartphones and watches. It's just that now, devices can pre-download the almanac over your data connection, mostly eliminating that delay.
Ok, random internet person. Having read a few words, you surely know better than me what happened among hundreds of people half a decade ago.

Call me a cynic, but this reads like the US military-industrial complex is looking for a new "enemy" that needs vast amounts of money to "contain"?

While the "war on terror" seems to be dying down, what about the good old standby enemies (Russia and China)?

They just sold 1.2 billion dollars in military hardware to Taiwan, they can milk this for another 5 years at a minimum.

> This is one of the most exclusive banks in the world

Not particularly exclusive, bought by NatWest in 2000 and then taken over by Ernst & Cie. So its little more than a brand-name these days, you can effectively buy your way in.

If you want truly exclusive, you have to cross the road and walk a bit further down the Strand to Fleet Street.

Regarding Private Banks and the online world, yes they tend to be a bit further behind the bleeding edge. But then if one can call up one's relationship manager who recognises one by voice without the need for tiresome security questions, then one might understand why expenditure on one's bank's online services is a secondary priority.

I'm not sure batteries are the answer on a grid scale. From the grid/market perspective, they're incredibly expensive energy time machines. They also come with their own environmental issues. Batteries make sense if you need to make small islanded systems, or need black start capabilities. If you just want to teleport energy/inertia around I think the answer is old school flywheels, pumped hydro, and synchronous condensers.

The real lowest hanging fruit is industrial demand-side response. I'm actively working on this from the grid side, implementing partial control room scada control of heavy industry for real-time grid balancing. Costs a few engineers some grey hairs, which is a lot cheaper than building grid scale batteries to provide the same end result.

I wonder why so many folks care about owning a fast computer. I guess it's the only objective reason to justify dropping thousands of dollars on a new computer (and ruining the planet) to do the same things they could do on their old hardware, if not for software becoming progressively less efficient.
First, you can't "prosecute" someone for defamation, because it isn't a crime.

Second, "society and justice" can't do anything. To sue someone for defamation, you have to have standing: you have to be able to demonstrate harm to yourself.

Third, it won't be "hard"; it will be impossible. Most of what the students said isn't defamatory (contrary to widely held opinion on these threads, calling the Gibson family "racist" is not defamatory, as it is a statement of opinion), and what defamatory things were said probably didn't cause any actual damage on a student-by-student basis.

Later

I updated this comment to change "very probably not defamatory" to simply "not defamatory" after doing some reading and learning that, lol-no, you cannot sue someone for calling you racist; courts do in fact hold that to be a statement of opinion.
It's not just blurry photos. There are also military pilot sightings corroborated with radar and FLIR, and the vehicles move in ways not possible with currently available human technology and science.

Does anyone have personal experience of how dual-frequency improves GPS? As I'm not really using GPS a lot, I'm not sure I noticed a difference from my previous devices (I live in EU, so also no high rise skyscrapers here)
> “While three UAP videos were released in the past, the facts specific to those three videos are unique in that those videos were initially released via unofficial channels before official release,”

As a fan of M*A*S*H and its usage of satire to depict the military, this line has me in stitches. It's sounds so much like something Henry Blake or even Colonel Flagg would say.
No, but I wouldn't be surprised if they did. If you're referring to the Alaska Air crash, the design of the jackscrew assembly was much older. The accident wasn't caused by a manufacturing fault in it. The design had problems, the maintenance on it was difficult, and pilot should have stopped trying to move it when it showed signs of trouble.

The other crash involving jackscrew failure (on a 747) was when an unsecured armored personnel carrier slid back and fell on it, snapping it. You can't really blame the jackscrew for that. No airplane is designed to handle heavy iron cargo flopping about in the hold.
Most webhosting services barely managed to offer encrypted FTP/SFTP before containers existed, most went with plain text FTP. When I worked in the sector back 2011 we had a customer with a hacked/stolen FTP password every other week.

As far as features are concerned, yes, you can make a git server you can push to, but allowing users to get a full shell and pull from their git server is a whole other comfort level. More modern alternatives would include on-server development with VS Code, which we aim to support in the next version with port forwarding supported.

As far as container security is concerned, if properly configured, these are still a sight more secure than trying to give users shell access without them. The UNIX permission mechanism is woefully inadequate for keeping users from messing with each other's stuff. This is obviously not a problem if you don't want to provide a shell service to users, but some services, like the LX Plus service at CERN mentioned in the other thread [1] is specifically that: a shell service for users to access.

One of the problems containers (or more accurately, network namespaces) solve are the language or development servers users may start for their development needs. These often don't contain any extra security beyond binding to 127.0.0.1. However, on a shared server this is obviously not enough.

The other problem with using purely UNIX permissions to isolate users in the webhosting sector is users messing up their permissions. Back in the day this was also a constant problem, so nowadays all webhosters run the webserver / PHP-FPM instance with the same user ID as the user uses to upload their code, often having multiple websites for the same user using the same user ID. This lends itself to cross-contamination between sites if one is breached. If the sites run on a different user ID, however, it becomes more difficult for a user to move data between them.

This is the best theory I've heard but doesn't explain how they spoofed the pilots' eyes.
GPS assumes* light travels in a straight line, which it doesn't due to atmospheric effects and reflections off buildings. L5 is a second frequency from the same satellites, which is affected by these problems differently, so the chip can compare the differences between the two signals and guess what's up with the atmosphere and buildings / throw out the dumber looking signal. It's also mostly independent so it's more data. L5 is also a bit less affected by atmosphere inherently.

The upshot is much better accuracy in urban canyons, and a small improvement where GPS was already good.

* Obviously people making chips and apps know this and try to mitigate it.
> I was thinking that the vast majority of those topics should be pretty much standard knowledge for a mathematically trained computer scientist

Yes, which is exactly why PoS is censorship resistant and PoW isn't. Taking over PoW is just a matter of acquiring resources - can be via regulation, or outright buying. The cost of mining hardware isn't very big.

It's impossible to mine anonymously with any non-negligible hashrate due to power differences and required specialized hardware - all trivial to track.

Taking over PoS is much harder because there's no way for governments to print tokens. It's easy to stake anonymously. A closed stable state in which only non-censoring validators control the network is always possible to achieve.
The overhead of the TLB and page walks have been increasing over time as memory gets larger - 4kb pages made sense in some contexts but not others so page sizes are now increasing, and this is complicating APIs and kernels. The complexities of huge pages on Linux being a case in point.

I suspect he may also be thinking of the prevalence of one virtual machine:one app in the cloud, where you can argue (and the Seastar guys do) that the process abstraction just slows you down because the unit of isolation is the VM anyway.

i have a designer friend who, after years of me prodding him to try blender recently said "i should give blender a try". this is the same guy who lives on adobe, and all that shizz...

"industry tools" he calls them. "why should i invest my time to learn a software when no one else in the industry is using them"...

glad the industry is changing behind the scenes to a point people like my friend would have to put blender in their workflow and maybe, just maybe one day work entirely off of FOSS tools.

It should be mandatory reading for anyone leading a team of any size. The book is from 1987 and the insights into building efficient teams and team spaces is still perfectly valid - like we haven't learned anything during the last 3 to 4 decades.
I said misleading as the author mentions JavaScript preventing rendering which isn't the case for anybody who is looking to optimize their site for speed. There are other such assumptions. Performance engineer is most times going against the default way and standards which the author is aware which is why I am surprised with this post.

I have not run into layout janks when I have used critical path CSS. I'd look into other tools/settings while extracting the critical path CSS if this would happen to me.
I worked on a iOS product and Apple breaks things across versions pretty constantly. A lot of them are undocumented (things like UI components just not rendering correctly or breaking) and it requires a pretty big sprint every year when betas arrive (which is a pain because you don't know which of the bugs will be fixed by release).

Android isn't much different.
Also cost. It's about EUR200 to (illegally) remove it, and quite a bit more to change it every 100k or so (numbers are not exact, been a while since I researched).
I haven't read a ton of modern SF, but my favorites from the last 5 years are:

* All Systems Red by Martha Wells. It's about a very introspective AI security droid who is trying to disguise the fact that he's become self-aware and has free will. It's very short, but I almost missed a flight because once I picked it up, I just kept reading it until it was done.

* Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir. This is by the author of The Martian, but I think I liked this one even more than that. It's still got that very procedural, engineering-porn style, but the scope is grander, a bit more Arthur C. Clarke and a bit less MacGuyver.

* Piranesi by Susanna Clarke. A lot of people may call this fantasy, but I don't think the distinction is meaningful in this case. It's about someone who gets stuck in a strange world that's sort of The Library of Babel meets The School of Athens.

* Recursion by Blake Crouch. False memory syndrome (e.g. The Mandela Effect) becomes a global existential crisis. All Blake Crouch books are incredibly fast page turners with fun SF ideas: Dark Matter, Wayward Pines, also good.

* Agency by William Gibson. I actually thought this book was just okay, but I am adding it to this list because it's the sequel to The Peripheral, which was amazing (but is older than 5 years). The premise is that people in the future can send information into the past, creating a parallel world. Like most William Gibson novels, it seemed like gibberish at first, but then when it clicked I really liked it, though it was sort of terrifying to think about.

"Best Approximation in Inner Product Spaces" by Frank Deutsch.

This book is about the following problem,

"Given a point P and a set S in a vector space, find the point in S closest to P."

(The most common example of a vector space is the Cartesian Coordinate Plane which is also called R^2 because every point is of the form (x,y) where x and y are real numbers.)

This book is very simply written. All the details of the proofs are provided. Also, Professor Deutsch covers the history of many of the theorems in the book. Applications to Linear Regression, Interpolation, and Control Systems are given. The main prerequisite for reading the book is a course in mathematical analysis (Rudin or Royden) and a course in matrices or linear algebra. The book is based on the graduate level Approximation Theory course which Dr. Deutsch taught for several years.
That would make sense if the US military-industrial complex had any problems whatsoever with funding. As far as I can see, the military and black-budget initiatives in the US already have an infinite, no questions asked credit line from the taxpayers and Congress. They don't need to resort to something this ridiculous, and even if they did, as you mentioned Russia and China are already effective boogeymen.
I think there's a spectrum of democracy from minimal (with peaceful transitions of power, but with other trappings of democracy largely ineffective or absent) to full (exemplifying Ernest Naville's words: "in a democratic government, the right of decision belongs to the majority, but the right of representation belongs to all"). I think full democracy requires minority rights and the rule of law, but maybe that's implied by the Naville quote.

Notably, majority rule isn't sufficient for full democracy, and isn't necessary or sufficient for minimal democracy.
I'm not sure where this specific key is (in Apple's implementation), but WebAuthn doesn't care where the key lives. Mine is in a Yubikey, I think/hope that will work, if the implementation is "plain" WebAuthn.
I wouldn't put too much stock in politicians' quotes. Based on some of the congressional hearings, it's clear these folks don't understand even basic smartphone operations, I suspect most modern technology is unidentified phenomena for them. And looking foolish has never stopped them either.

What exactly are you thinking of? Git manages files after all.

If you mean the underlying data structures, that's basically what modern filesystems are. XFS, APFS, BTRFS etc are all copy-on-write file systems that use git-like structures underneath. In the same way that git branches are "instant" because no data is actually copied, so too can these file systems clone files or whole trees instantly without copying any real data. You can easily "branch" a directory tree, rsync the results to a remote machine, etc.
I disagree.

First of all, there exists physical entertainment. For example, my family loves to play cards after a big family dinner.

Second of all, it's just not as important. Lack of entertainment will cause a society to break down over time, while a lack of food will destroy society overnight.

Some dude though about some basic concept of decentralization and that's it.

This was not some mastermind who created the perfect money system.

There are massive amounts of issues with Bitcoin in particular.

Alone one reason why Ethereum was trying to be ASIC resistent was to make GPUs stronger and allowing for more / better decentralization.

Plenty of people who are no longer able to recover their wallets (I know two friends having lost 150k$\initial investment of 10k$).

Fraud issues like you see in El Salvador.

The huge changes in value (no Bitcoin is apparently not stable and independent from the economic market).

And it doesn't even solve the trust issue. As soon as you wanna spend Bitcoin you need other systems like smart contract (which also doesn't solve the problem) or trusting third party.

The only advantage of Bitcoin is that's unregulated and everyone is taking a bit of it who is fast enough, rich enough or smart enough from everyone else who is not.
blackjack seems like a great (initial version of a) tool for doing procedural modelling, just like geometry nodes in Blender.

However, it seems the similarities with Houdini stops there. While Houdini might be famous for the procedural nature of the tool, where it really shines is the physics, simulation and effects department. Which blackjack seems to not have any features about at all.
