This reminds me of an exercise in 5th grade: write detailed instructions to be followed _exactly_ to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. The teacher would then follow the instructions exactly and hilarity ensues, teaching something about expectations, assumptions, instructions, etc. "I didn't know I had to tell them to _open_ the bread bag!"

It is a reason why I like to teach by asking questions so I can learn where they have gaps and help them see their own gaps. "How does the teacher actually access the bread?" "oh, we have to open the bag first!"

the only time I saw this in real life was a twenty-something guy with a high powered street motorcycle. It was not stock and had odd parts (which makes other mods less obvious). I believe he had a kill switch for all lights on the bike, which made reading the plate at night more difficult, but the immediate use was to run from a hiway patrol when challenged. No idea how that worked out for him over time.
I used a CRT for the first time in a long time a few months ago (embedded in a PowerMac 7200 all-in-one), and I forgot how stunning the picture looked compared to LCD/LED screens throughout the 2000s.

Big problem though, I forgot how much they made my eyes _hurt_. I couldn't handle using it for more than 30 minutes. Increasing the refresh rate to 75hz helped a little bit, but wasn't enough to get me to stop causing a headache. I'm all for nostalgia but I think in the end it is good that we moved away from CRT technology (for many reasons).
For me, this is almost like one of those trolley problems, when it comes to passing judgement.

I think what the US was doing was wrong (I am a US citizen). I think that kind of stuff should be made transparent. And it frustrates me that the situation became that way and that he (felt he) had to take those steps to redress it.

On the flip, Russia just seems to keep "leveling up" in being a really bad bit of action. And I like that far less. And yet now they are bedfellows.

In reality, they're independent things, but my brain with its "halo effect" wants to "co judge" these things one way or the other. I wish Switzerland or some place like that had granted him asylum.

Do you remember when Garmin made phones? Maybe not, because it was only for a year. They released their flagship Nuvifone with much fanfare (to T-Mobile customers, anyway) in June of 2010. They announced that they were withdrawing from the phone market that October. To be fair, they did release one update after that.

Those riches were made by being the captain of a plane which had an incredible luck to have a once in a lifetime 250mph tailwind. And now people who are idiots think the captain is a God, whereas it's just blind luck and once in a lifetime tailwind.

If you had any other person piloting the plane it would have been the same. That's unjust enrichement and society has always punished that, and it's exemplified by the PowerBall lotter where the Govt. takes half or even more.

Just the other day I wanted to compute viewing angle and did it by hand even though there are plenty of calculators like this out there:

This area of law is usually a bit more nuanced than "what you wrote is the contract". If both parties thought the contract said $800 when it was signed (and if that could be proven...) then that might well be enough for a court to either read the contract as if it said $800, or to void it entirely.

this is the essence of the interest rate swap (which is what you're actually buying when you "fix")

this is the fee for exiting the swap early, which has to exist otherwise person who bought the other side would never be able to make a profit on it (and hence no-one would ever write one)

Still, the discussion is only about convenience. For example, e^ix = cos x + i sin x (with sin/cos taking an argument in radians) would become e^ix = cos 2pi x + i sin 2pi x (with sin/cos taking an argument in turns). It's more cumbersome than the radian-based definitions, but it's not strictly different.

I can definitely get behind this, being tracked is a solid disincentive to flying, this could work the same way for driving to promote more public transit/walkable cities. If this goes to facial tracking that's a whole different concern though.

I think the argument being made here is more that it's non-consensual data collection which seems solid. By owning a plane you're consenting to it being tracked and same for a car, but I don't think a person just using the plane/car/train/street should be allowed to be tracked - just the vehicle

Assuming good faith is necessary and good for any kind of productive debate but it's not necessarily or need be accompanied by the trust necessary to answer personal questions. That kind of trust is developed over time with many people. Perhaps you are more trusting by default, all power to you, but it's naive to assume everyone ought to react the same way you do.

Very interesting read. The author notes that double pumping the 512 bit instructions to 256 bit execution units appears to be a good trade-off.

As far as I understood ARMs new SIMD instruction set is able to map to execution units of arbitrary width. So it sounds to me like ARM is ahead of x86 in flexibility here and might be able to profit in the future.

Maybe somebody with more in-depth knowledge could respond whether my understanding is correct.
index = angle1 + angle2 | 0

I am also paranoiac about such things, but the part with avoiding the connection to the Internet is easy for a desktop computer, if it also does not run Windows, where you never know what services might be active and with which external servers they might try to communicate.

I have a small computer that is used as the router for the Internet connection and on which I have complete control over the firewall and over the proxies used for connecting to the Internet, so there are no chances for an unwanted connection to the Internet.

For additional protection, one could run the Internet browsers in a Virtual Machine, to be absolutely certain that there is no way for a script run by the browser to access the physical hardware, assuming that you do not trust the sandboxing capabilities of the browser.

Russia: Man shoots officer drafting residents for war in Ukraine
Yes, no shit books that teach and advocate queer theory should be available for teenagers.

The reason nobody is saying that is that it doesn't have to be said. This isn't Afghanistan, this is a free country that values education and freedom of information. If someone of any age wants to read a book, that is their right regardless of the topic. Nobody is being forced to read it.

It boggles my mind that there are Americans who think otherwise. What possible reason could there be for banning a book from a school library? Especially an educational book that talks about something that's been studied in academia for 30 years.

"Girls Who Code" is about introducing girls to coding. What else would it be about? If you do some searching it's not hard to find a pdf if you want to check.

But it's banned for the same reason Queer Theory is banned: it empowers people to defy traditional gender roles. Traditionally, women aren't supposed to have high powered tech careers that pay six figures. Traditionally, women are expected to have children, to be financially dependent on men and to put family before career. Learning to code isn't part of the script. Women are already more educated than men, they vote more than men and if they get into computer science they might start earning more than men too.

I think Huang does not want to draw investors’ attention to crypto because he doesn’t want people to equate Nvidia’s performance as a company with crypto performance. He doesn’t want Nvidia to just be a crypto company.

At the same time, he also definitely wants to cash in on any future crypto booms, because they are lucrative.

It is best for him to take a position that mostly ignores crypto. I think he legitimately doesn’t want crypto to be the future of Nvidia and doesn’t want to build for that use case, nor does he want to be financially reliant on it, but there is also no point in him talking shit or spreading doom about crypto when he can just shut up and still sell gpus.

I've hit problems where YAML generated by one implementation will hit parsing quirks in another implementation. Now my advice is: If you have something that consumes YAML, generate JSON and feed it that instead. YAML is defined to be a superset of JSON, and every implementation should be able to handle it fine.

For those interested, the problem was with the string "08". At least at the time, the pyYAML generator I was using would render it as 08 (without quotes), which is not parsable as a number because the leading 0 indicates the number is in octal, but 8 isn't a valid octal digit. Since it wasn't parsable as a number, it should default to being treated as a string. However the golang parser disagreed and instead raised an error because "8" was not a valid octal digit.
Because it's ridiculous to do so when you have a bomber fleet larger than the entire rest of the world's combined, and because it's far more expensive to build and maintain than just sending a carrier group to wherever you need to strike.
