Here's the abstract:

The deluge of sensors and data generating devices has driven a paradigm shift in modern computing from arithmetic-logic centric to data centric processing. At a hardware level, this presents an urgent need to integrate dense, high-performance and low-power memory units with Si logic-processor units. However, data-heavy problems such as search and pattern matching also require paradigm changing innovations at the circuit and architecture level to enable compute in memory (CIM) operations. CIM architectures that combine data storage yet concurrently offer low-delay and small footprint are highly sought after but have not been realized. Here, we present Aluminum Scandium Nitride (AlScN) ferroelectric diode (FeD) memristor devices that allow for storage, search and neural network-based pattern recognition in a transistor-free architecture. Our devices can be directly integrated on top of Si processors in a scalable, back-end-of-line process. We leverage the field-programmability, non-volatility and non-linearity of FeDs to demonstrated circuit blocks that can support search operations in-situ memory with search delay times < 0.1 ns and a cell footprint < 0.12 μm2. In addition, we demonstrate matrix multiplication operations with 4-bit operation of the FeDs. Our results highlight FeDs as promising candidates for fast, efficient, and multifunctional CIM platforms.
* You don't have the density of sensors to see even at a meter resolution, to say nothing of femtometer. Actually in oceans you don't have many sensors at all, and most data come from satellite observations that give rather indirect information. Even if you had a capability to compute a model at femtometer resolution, I don't see how much of it would you be able to fit to observations.

* It's pretty hard to predict weather for 100 days, because you would also need to predict many other events in the future: forest fires, volcano eruptions, and many kinds of human activity that also affect weather. However great are your fluid dynamic models, and however well were they able to predict the future state from today's state, they wont help that.

The thing with writing is that the smallest distraction can make you not want to write. Like, sure, I could go and set up a blog right now on my domain, but I'd have to find a blogging service (GitHub pages? I don't necessarily want to fiddle with markup though), log into my domain, potentially fiddle with HTTPS, and after all that I won't want to write my blog post anymore. And after I've written my blog post, I'm not going to fiddle with setting up my own blog because I don't have anything to write anymore. And next time I have something to write, I'm not going to want to fiddle with setting up a blog.
is fixed resolution really the way to go? I'd imagine big patches of the ocean and deserts being modeled as single nodes being way more efficient without compromising fidelity.
Why is this good/better compared to date-fns?
My hypothesis is that Open Source Software (Linux, OpenOffice, etc.) is a great gift because there isn't enough money to buy commercial software. However, open source libraries can be seen as a problem because today you can't easily build and sell libraries as everybody expects and uses open-source libraries.

Today, you have to build a bigger useful library, start a company around it, advertise, and sell it as a product - which is a big monetary investment. Starting with a small useful library and slowly receiving some money could help developers to get more interested in developing libraries - especially when young or living in low-wage countries.
If you don't have speakers you can still have the airtags and they wouldn't be able to tell if they are on or off.

In their default state, they make annoying sounds every time the bag is moved, so they would be able to tell.
I’m not a lawyer. My wife is, but she’s my lawyer. Get your own damn lawyer ;)

However, I could see:

- Bad person A is convicted of kiddy porn, as part of a plea deal, he gives up his sources etc
- Turns out A has been sending stuff to B via iCloud
- B does something nasty to C’s kid and gets caught
- C sues Apple (who has money and certainly doesn’t want to be defending this in court) for making no attempt to stop this from happening to C’s kid, or worse assigns culpability due to being the medium of transport.

Would this have merit ? Probably not, but it’s not something Apple want splashed all over the interwebs. The court that matters is public opinion, in this instance, and mega-corp vs parents-of-abused-kid doesn’t play well whatever the merits of the case.

So Apple (and everyone else) scan, in part for self-interest, and also because I’m sure people at Apple/whoever have kids too, and have just as visceral a reaction as other people when confronted with hard evidence that this shit really happens. It’s easy to play the “think of the children is all bollocks” card - it’s harder when there’s a real abused kid that is front and center.
BESM-6 had indicator of kernel registers - http://www.mailcom.com/besm6/ . Using economic font, one could provide more information directly to the user than if the font takes too many pixels.

In other words, we may have situations where the font size is at premium.
Yup. That was my lament.
Sure. You can prove termination, bounded runtime space, and bounded runtime performance.

What’s the deal with scylla? Everytime I google something cassandra related I get only scylla ads claiming it’s much better
This and /etc/motd are really the only communication channel Canonical has with some of their users. If nothing else, they need to use them to inform people when they are out of support. It would be unethical to not do that when they could. Actually telling people what to do about it, ideally before the deadlines pass, even better.
Smaller bundle size, similarity to moment.js

As a dev who’s used all three, is there a massive difference? Not really. Stick with what you like (though moment is no longer maintained so maybe not that)
sometimes you know you're doing something dumb before you do it, but you do it anyway.
This is a very strange thing to say to a complete stranger.
I think it's the latter. I've never seen anything resembling an RFID chip, even a flexible one, on a Delta bag tag.

It's easier than ever to set up a blog. If you aren't interested in figuring out how to host your own, there are paid solutions like Ghost and Wordpress. You can always use one of those and migrate to a self-hosted one in the future if desired.
I didn't say lithium ion, I said lithium - they indeed use a different lithium-based chemistry.

Note that lithium itself is a very volatile metal (it starts burning in contact with water, for example).
> how many people (including on client teams) does it take to manage this much sprawl?

Being remotely familiar something with similar complexity, I say "very few". Automation is not one time, it is ongoing. You start with something small, and you build, and build, and build. I saw a presentation from maybe 5-6 years back talking about Apple Cassandra, and have talked to some engineers too when they used to have DataStax Cassandra summits. Their automation has probably scaled up from those days.

Maybe their infrastructure grows by X% every year (X probably being a double digit number) and their automation increases their productivity / reduces their overhead by X/2%, it allows them to still retain a huge growth trajectory at a smaller increase in people costs. Improve productivity by X% or more (with new automation), and you have hit a home run.

And they should not be asking "by what percentage should I optimize", but simply "where do we spend effort today and how can we reduce it" ... which any business or group should be doing it anyways.

The biggest challenges with such things come when management changes strategy for various reasons because then you lose a year or 2, and then you fall really behind and need to do so much catch up just to catch breath.
I should also add that people who advocate for simplicity primarily do so because they want to solve bigger / more complicated problems, but the complexity level gets in their way.

People who don't see the existing solutions as overly complex are content to stay at their current level and have no vision of solving bigger more difficult problems. They think they are already working at or near the peak of human possibility.
"Chinese gang kidnapped people, forced them to commit cyberfraud" seems like a pretty obvious rephrase.
Congrats on shipping, looks quite fun :)
People who investigated the claims of the article this one is replying to have found that the original source of this claim was a German article where someone called Lufthansa and asked this question. The answer they got from the Lufthansa representative was essentially citing an ICAO rule about devices with lithium batteries - which got twisted in this "Lufthansa doesn't allow AirTags" narrative.

That's dreadful. That's the kind of confidence drop like a cliff buying into a product / company.

If they can't ensure a solid shipping line then they surely can't make good on replacements and/or warranty issues.
All airline I've been travel, disable WiFi during takeoff and landing.
I wonder if you could use free space optics or mm wave radio (above the absorption spectrum of water) to do this without the environmental externalities. Dispersion is still a problem underwater with these high frequency EM waves, but presumably a researcher could deploy some relays along with the cameras.

Passive sound absorption for power could also work without any sort of active sonar pinging.

It would still be significantly better if mobos ran coreboot (or some open source firmware) with some binary blobs for WiFi/Bluetooth. It's not out of the ordinary to have this arrangement; the newer Nvidia GPUs support open source kernel modules because they use encrypted binary blobs to lock down actual functionality. The WiFi/Bluetooth chips could even have open source firmware but require a signed hash of that firmware binary.
But isn't this a little bit perverted system? We build a software app or library that has great value for other people and companies and we do not get paid for this but have to find ways around it to get something back. Imagine that would be the case with normal jobs - we go to work at Google without a salary and then have to find ways to pay the bills with helping other with SEO.

Maybe I'm in a different bubble, but most of the writers I see on Substack are individuals, not people writing on behalf of companies. If anything, companies using Medium is still more popular. Substack is also quite popular in the literary and arts circles, not just tech.
The five free machines remind me of Portainer.
For personal dev machines, I would actually prefer Arch over Ubuntu.
I wonder how long people would switch off Ubuntu because of these; now, I hope the sooner, the better.
Very awesome to see Moment JS have a legacy. What a great api
Do you mean Corsair?
It's embarrassing we never evolved the date api which comes with the browser.

That said, I tend to err on writing a custom function / importing only a custom function over importing an entire library just to run a 2 lines function.
What the heck do you even mean? What even is a water-caused death? I suppose humidity/heat related deaths might count, although those are tens or maybe hundreds of thousands and hydrogen combustion would have a negligible contribution to the weather. Perhaps you mean overhydration? That's probably only a few dozen or so people unless you count deaths from MDMA-related overhydration, and even then it is still very few deaths overall.

There are specific biological reasons that lead scientists to attribute certain deaths to air pollution. For instance, we know that PM2.5 can be absorbed through the lungs and we've seen that it forms masses in the veins and arteries that can cause heart attacks.
I am Medium’s new CEO and was a major publisher there before that. I’m reading a lot of “go the way of Medium” type comments. Completely fair.

Medium was going in a good direction and then made a wrong turn. Call it a lesson learned maybe. But there isn’t anything preventing us from reversing back to that decision point and going down the right path.

The right path is making sure we surface the good stuff. It’s there. We just made incentive and distribution decisions that swamped a lot of expert level writing with derivative content mill stuff.

We like being an open platform and that means plenty of less good stuff. But we have plenty of tools to select the posts that actually provide value. Turning those on is most of my focus.

In practice we overlap competitively with all the publishing options. That’s Substack and ConvertKit, Wordpress, Ghost, LinkedIn. Others.

The biggest philosophical difference is that I want to hear from people that don’t have time to build an audience. You don’t learn programming, design, marketing or entrepreneurship from a journalist. You want to learn those things from other experts. At least I do. By definition, experts are too busy being experts to be full time writers and audience builders.

A person with one great thing to say should be able to show up on Medium with no following and get that thing read by thousands of readers.

Nobody has to tell me we aren’t delivering. But I know the system well enough to know we can reverse course. And I know the results so far well enough to know that being useful is enough to overcome our history.

So that’s the state of Medium.
Glad to see people are making coarse-grained UI controls like this. Mouses (fine-grained ‘analog’ alternative) under-serves high-efficiency workflows. Like so much innovation has gone into smartphone gestures (even the keyboards have them), that classic desktop drag to point interfaces genuinely seem archaic. Can’t believe we don’t have commercially popular eye tracking yet, or gesture oriented mouse navigation.
> where is the proof that we can afford to tax ourselves to pay ourselves

US military expenditures are approx 800 billion per year, right now, which equates to something like $200 per month UBI per living American or something like $1600 per month UBI to every American living in poverty right now.

Not answering your question, but putting some numbers in context
Similar reaction; it was a plug to sell the book.
Good thinking. Yes, it's not quite accurate, but that's not because Codex failed, it's because the author's graph is made up nonsense that doesn't actually represent any concrete properties/data.
It's also covered from cloud dev server + local editor.
I have not used moment.js or other date libraries in a long while.
But how does this compare to Luxon? (https://moment.github.io/luxon/#/why)
Writing well is a way to distill what you've learned into a concentrated form that makes it worth reading.

Therefore, unless it's basically a diary, writing one "article" per day will necessarily either stop or turn to blogspam over time.
I’ve been forced to learn how to deal with “DAAAAAAADDY!” whatever I’m doing, so now I try to do as little loading of state into my head as possible.

Part of that is meticulous notes on what I’m currently doing and planning to do, lots of “todo” comments and comments in general, etc.

The other part is just learning to live with interruptions through experience.

Some people might not have the same success, your mileage may vary.

Here [0] is the FAA site about lithium battery powered devices in checked-in baggage. The ICAO has the same rule, but I haven't found a similarly concise statement.

> Devices containing lithium metal batteries or lithium ion batteries, including – but not limited to – smartphones, tablets, cameras and laptops, should be kept in carry-on baggage. If these devices are packed in checked baggage, they should be turned completely off, protected from accidental activation and packed so they are protected from damage. [emphasis mine]

It's like Duke Nukem Forever, except not shipping.
3 different times I've used a product, either via freeware or sales lead and when I went to go buy the spent so long getting back to us on a price we had written around it on the engineering team. One small team had not sold a copy before and so they took 3 weeks to settle on a price (but they had a sales staff), in which time I had learned enough 3d math to just re-write the system.
There is no distinction between the two in terms of regulations (all the ones I've seen are explicitly calling both lithium ion and lithium metal batteries).
the most often overlooked aspect of "the present" is that it has a size or length.

so the "present" may be a second, zero seconds (with lots of math), or even 1000 years.
If we're thinking of the same video, that was an OG Hololens I think.
> But an ad for a pro service in the motd does it?

Nit: The motd has had ad's for a long time. This is about ad's in apt's output.
Yes, thats my observation too. While sometime you find libraries that can be bought (e.g. ExtJS), there is no real market for libraries as everybody is used to use open-source, pay nothing, and adapt it to their needs.
Use disjoint-set/union-find for connected components, instead of breadth-first search:

Why I avoid medium is because of the free post limit. I don’t pay for a subscription and don’t particularly want to- so if the link I clicked on is a low quality article, it just used one of my credits, and I’m SOL.

Maybe I’m misusing or misunderstanding the product somehow?

Is it a real pension where my money is invested and returned to me in 20 years or is it like pensions in Europe, where you pay taxes that pay out current pensions and then you hope the government will give you X money in 20 years (which will inevitably become 30 years and X/2 by the time of your pension age)?
If he's still in control, how does being the CEO work? Isn't he still basically the chief executive decision maker at the end of the day even though you are named CEO?
Care to explain from a psychiatric perspective why you characterize that as nuts?
the problem of writer pay is if you don't pay writers the supply of writers who can afford to put in the time to produce quality writing without pay dwindles down to those who have some other source of free money.

But not everyone who has access to the free money can produce quality writing, the supply goes even further down.
Lithium batteries of any kind have the same regulations in aviation. Here[0] is a link from the US FAA, but you'll find similar at ICAO or any other civil aviation authorities.

well, some (or all?) have laser links now, so as another sat gets covisibility with a ground station and user terminal, it can just instantly pass the traffic off

without laser link, it's looks to me that most of the time in populated latitudes, there will be more than one sat's beams covering a cell, and if not then there would be interruption in coverage

the terminal should handle transmitting to multiple sats that are close by, but i dunno how omnidirectional the dishy is

Right, but OP said Steam "doesn't enforce DRM". Saying they don't require developers to implement it is different than saying they don't enforce it.
Funny people think Starlink is mainly a commercial enterprise. Since Teledesic in the 90s, these low earth orbit constellation projects have always been about stepping towards the real goal, which started with Strategic Defense Initiative and now embodied in the Space Development Agency
If we want to put up a metered paywall, and we do, then we need to deliver. That’s how I see the problem. You are using the product just fine.

Common advice is to find where two of your interests or talents cross. Programming is one here, so now just build something that's useful in another of your hobbies or interests.

Another idea is just cloning an existing idea. I think there are probably many niches where it would be relatively easy to build the best product, and other niches where the number of customers is so large that it's not too difficult to capture a small part of the market, even if it's saturated. 12k/yr is a tiny amount of revenue.
This is still a horrible communication medium. If you’re an enterprise you’ll have someone managing this contract and will know months prior and renew. You also shouldn’t be SSHing to production hosts so the only people that will see these adverts are hobbyists and those creating images.
Starting to work at 15 was the best thing I could have done for my developer career.

My grades were trash and I didn't have much of a social life but by the time I was out of university I had already plenty of paying clients and a passive revenue stream (websites with ads)
I think there is a huge gap between "substantial revenue" and unicorn. I have no doubt that these platform can be great businesses, bringing in tens of millions of revenue or profit per year. But when you take on $100M in investor money you are forced to either go big or go home. And going BIG seems really hard with a newsletter or Medium-like business that has little defensibility. Of course, for the founders this may still end up being a great deal and the right choice, even if the company eventually fails.
Why would you deal with any of that when there’s Debian?
Sunshine, water, a pinch of nutrients, and time.

In return you get hydrogen and blue algaea are edible to boot!

Economies of scale are helpful; every house participating, with windows lined with the little things, would increase efficiency.
You're comparing the advertisement strategies of a TRACKING device with a weapon capable of killing a human... I do not think it is a good idea to make a false equivalency between the two.
It is not - it is in fact a nothing burger. The original claim was based on a German article where someone called Lufthansa and asked if they can put AirTags in their checked-in luggage, and the Lufthansa representative answered with the existing regulation about Lithium (metal or ion) battery devices, which says they are accepted if they are completely powered off.

That's it - no one is enforcing this regulation in practice, especially not for AirTags or other small devices.
