There is a lot of misinformation being spread out.

Arm changed the business model from requiring the SoC vendor to license every single piece of IP individually up-front (one license for CPU, one license for GPU, one license for interconnect, etc) to a "all you can eat model" and "pay only once you shipped the product":

https://www.arm.com/products/flexible-access

This is very positive because it simplifies the legal paperwork for licensing IP (one license gives you access to an entire portfolio of IP instead of just one) and lowers the bar for prototyping because you won't be required to pay full cost for a license you don't you if you will use. Qualcomm is heavily misrepresenting this to their light.

Arm preventing customers from mixing Arm IP with other IPs is just straight up lie. You can take Mobileye as an example, they just licensed an Arm GPU with a RISC-V CPU:

They are not defacto governments. They are holding themselves out as Common Carriers when it suits them, and therefore to obtain the privileges that pertain to that status they should be required to meet certain criteria that one would expect from a Common Carrier, such as Equal Access (in the sense of what was provided by RBOCs to CLECs after the breakup of Ma Bell/AT&T) and true Network Neutrality. You don't get to be a Common Carrier and be a publisher. It's one or the other. Editorializing means you become a publisher and take responsibility for everything that goes on your site just as a newspaper would. Don't like it? Be a Common Carrier.

We don't need any new law... we just need to apply existing legal principles and stop pussyfooting around it. Either they're Common Carriers or they're not. Either they're deserving of Section 230's protections or they're not. Pick one.
It's incredible to me that this is only a 2.2B merger, when I think about how much space in my house is dedicated to books, and how much of my discretionary spending is for books (plus indirect demand through libraries.)

On the other hand, I doubt whether any of the last 10-20 books I've bought were Penguin Random House...
Paypal got popular because it allowed people to pay for things instantly online. SEPA Überweisung didn't really solve that problem and credit cards used to be rather uncommon - even today many germans don't have one.

P2P payments between friends came later and wer just another thing Paypal could handle but at that point it was already very popular.

An hour commute to work is most definitely not acceptable to most, especially post-pandemic. Median commute in the US is about 26 minutes and many people are now used to working from home some or all of the time. Hour-long commutes are outliers for a relatively small percentage of people in a small number of cities.

Can you show examples of the content that was flagged as misinformation?

Did the post only contain a link to the study and/or snippets? Did the person mispresent the results to push a different opinion?
I'm not saying that happened but I'd like to see a post that was flagged.

EDIT: I also see you posted a link to the study not any censored comment? Why?
same but i dont have a ethernet hat so i just do wifi on pi zero. it works.....

recently i found a strange issue. i can access rustdesk on a device connected at home which goes through pihole. so the pc says no internet connection, triangle on the network icon (win10) and firefox does not work. restarting didn't help either.

it was troubling because i could use rustdesk just fine, only problem was the machine thought it could not access internet.

checked pihole address and it was not responding. sent remote hands to unplug and plug pi-zero to the router usb itself and everything worked.
If this was aiming for the scale of twitter replacement, the realistic answer is: read as much as possible from what was published about the current twitter architecture and try to replicate that while avoiding things they used in the past. If you're thinking in terms of a specific database rather than queues that write into partitions distributed around the world, you've probably already lost. Maybe think really hard about splitting out mostly-readers and pop-stars and whether they need input/output that's architected differently. Find people who design event stream architectures.

Because let's be serious. Apart from youtube comments, I don't think there's anything the scale of twitter for short messages at the moment. (and even that's much simpler problem)

Assuming for the moment this is real, could somebody ELI5 how this would work in practice in the face of the first sale doctrine?

(1) Chip manufacturers can't use ARM IP without appropriate permission/licensing in the first place, so they would _still_ need some ARM contract to even make the things, right?

(2) The first-sale doctrine doesn't grant unlimited rights -- OEMs can't reverse engineer and clone a chip -- but certainly they can attach it unadultered to other components so long as there aren't separate patent issues for that particular combination of underlying technologies? Does ARM perhaps have a patent on stuff that looks like "ARM Core" + "Neural Accelerator" or something like that?

(3) Assuming there aren't any loopholes out of first-sale, is the play that in the contract in (1) ARM prohibits direct sale and requires chip manufacturers to profit via some contract that includes language about OEMs having to pay ARM? Is that sort of law-skirting anti-competitiveness actually allowed here or in other domains?

The sleight of hand is in the definition of 'equivalent'.

Batteries are expensive and motors are dirt cheap, so the only EVs with decent range are super high end, performance, luxury models.

Compared to a 500hp luxury SUV they're great.

Compared to an econobox they use about the same amount of energy per km.

They're up if you compare whole system emissions for the car vs. Emissions at a ff plant.

If you add in the fugitive methane or horror show that is coal mining and ash they're on par again.

One thing I would suggest -- this is cool, but can we move away from Qt and move to NCurses? This is useful because it means I can use this over SSH.
Nvidia does already use RISC-V in their GPUs, too. Those small controller chips aren't comparable with CPUs.
On my laptop, systemd is awesome; I love it. Everything works together nicely.
On my servers, systemd gets in my way, tries to do too many things, and gets in my way more then it helps.

On a laptop things are much more dynamic. From sleep/hibernation/wifi-LAN-wifi (+/- VPN) switching/etc.... these fiddly bits were much harder to manage on Linux for DECADES then they are now. The reboot interval on laptops is huge compared to servers. An init system (plus all the extra plumbing) work well together.

On servers however; I HATE systemd. For logging, networking (and DNS) alone systemd wastes so much more of my time and gets in my way. I think the need for an 'improved' init system was always a red herring. I've never had a service race-condition, or other conflict that didn't take more then 10 minutes to fix in the 30 years I've managed *nix servers.
There was one time where I was stumped why my VPN server kept failing to start at boot but came up fine if I restarted manually. My dyslexic ass inverted the script number (ie. 13 instead of 31 or something like that). That was just a face-palm embarrassment.

I would have no issue paying for a RISC-V + licensed PowerVR core that's well supported in Wayland and Mesa.
It’s likely folks like him and Hofstadter have thought long and hard about it and just haven’t found a viable theory or explanation yet and hence the conjecture. We need more extremely intelligent people thinking about it. Or maybe we don’t! But at least that’s the explanation I see as valid here.
I think it was a good gamble. If old management had budged by even 1% or 2% of the original deal, the savings would have easily paid for all the lawyers Musk and Twitter had to hire. Just a calculated risk that didn’t pay off. That’s how calculated risks go sometimes.
You are of course completely correct. However, I do think numbers like these are more intuitive when people talk about duration (or latency, or time taken; depending on context) rather than speed outside of very narrow situations.

In a car, 60mph has some kind of well-known interpretation; there's an experience to that that people can at least vaguely identify. And it's also related to fairly intrinsic limits, such as legal speed limits, safety, etc.

But even in a car, people tend to care about trip-times, not speeds. And speeds are harder to work with; If you travel 30mph on your commute to work due to traffic; and 60mph on your way home - what was your average speed? Not 45.

Outside of a car and in a computation context, it's even more impractical to talk about "speed" - after all, we're usually dealing with lots of stages; and it's rather easier to simply add up latencies than it is to some reciprocal of reciprocals dance. Even if time is workload dependent, then the time-per-workload framing tends to be more helpful than the workload-per-time framing.

As a corollary, people currently talk about high refresh gaming, and will happily report how some workload went from 300fps to 400fps, without noting that this is the same frametime reduction as going from 48 to 50fps (setting aside perceptual limitations). Workload-per-time is pretty unintuitive.
This is tens of milliseconds that we're talking about here too. It's really dumb to think that would be perceptive in developer experience.
Yeah I get it - it just feels a bit clumsy to use the flipped units when summarising the optimisation. Just a personal taste thing though.

I still think "X times less than" can GTFO though - as in 10,000 is "seven times less than" 70,000 - which is the kind of thing I'm seeing more recently. That wasn't mentioned in the article though, it was maybe a bit unfair to lump them together.
It would have to be an HID interface for some controller I ran into. It was essentially a large switch that used bitwise operations against some magic byte as the cases to determine which button was pressed. Avoided using variables or an enum which I thought was interesting

Insta and WhatsApp of today are not threats to Facebook because they are the same company. Had they not been acquired, their trajectories may have been very different.
Because, if 'they' have a better system in place, that allows for greater control, they would want to move people to that instead. Just like how people are migrated from legacy systems to new ones.

The system we are meant to migrate to is ai-managed technocracy, with global governance (country governments will be adminstrative - they are that now tbh), central Bank digital currency (programmable, temporary credits - no cash) to allow tracking of everything, 'smart/spy' everything (phones, electricity, water) to allow for micro control of each individuals resource use.

Embedded-looking systems usually need an FDT blob for booting Linux, this seems to be the missing piece according to the article. It shouldn't be hard to provide it on the hardware developer's end, while a bit more complicated to infer from the OS developer side.

...the year of the Linux Desktop

I keep wondering about this year of the Linux Desktop. So often I see it used as a snide towards Linux users (not by you). I think it shows naivety.

What does it mean? Is it about having a stable easy to maintain and full featured Linux Desktop. I really do think we have reached that point. Especially now that many workflows have moved to the web I am having a hard time coming up with use cases for which Linux would really not be suited. Even gaming has become very viable.

Or does it mean that Linux for overtake the market share of Windows and macOS. For that I would caution to be careful about what you wish for. Being an underdog brings an added benefit of having more flexibility and the option to think outside of the box. For Linux to overtake Windows it would slowly turn into Windows itself in my opinion.
>One of the things I haven't figured out yet is if traditional logging systems can easily do advanced log filtering like showing only logs from the current boot (like -b in systemd), previous boots (-b -1), and showing logs after a specific date and time (--since).

I manage this with clever usage of grep. You are correct in that there isn't a single --flag that will only show me those specifics.

Probably some ActivityPub-based megasite, federated with smaller (even self hosted) sites everywhere. Mastodon seems to be on the right track here. Personally, I think an updated version of good old NNTP - the protocol underlying Usenet when it was at its largest - would be far better than ActivityPub as it exists, but there seems to be little developer/hoster appetite for that.

As you said in your previous,

> Twitter is a void and trying to fill that void with another one isn't the answer.

You are 100% spot on something here, something that's well known but usually goes undiscussed.

As madeofpalk said,

> Sometimes i just want to take a break from 110% productivity and have some idle, mindless chatter.

That's true - so do I (although I usually opt for a chat with a friend, or for some mindless RealRacing).

But for the majority of Twitterheads, Twitter has become synonymous with the public square, with results that verge on (or fully reach) the toxic.

Here, I'm thinking of Sam Vaknin's position on the question of toxicity:

Pt. 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmXcjvL9VSc

Pt. 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m38W8glySGw

Now, one may say that Vaknin isn't important, or that he's too self-important, or whatever. But his analysis (and he's not unique on that) concludes that such social media platforms have a corrosive effect on the individual and on society.

If nothing else, it's a system that essentially echo chambers you, and preys on vulnerabilities in the standard human psychological make up to maximize profit.

Not to mention that it's a private platform, and very specifically not a 21st century version of the agora/public forum.

I think that on principle private enterprises shouldn't be permitted to usurp the public sphere.

BBC Africa Eye: Death on the Border
>So what's to be done about the actual, real harm being done, while also protecting free speech? I don't want to assume that assaulting people is just the cost of free speech. That just seems so wrong to me.

Free speech has reasonable limits. Slander/Libel is necessary. Death threats, bomb threats, incitement to suicide or genocide. All completely reasonable exceptions nobody will argue against. All of these are IRL physical damages or at least threat of.

So do you go further to amoleriate or prevent psychological damage? This is really the biggest part of the controversy.

So what happens when you create hate speech laws? If you define what isn't allowed to be said. For example N-word isn't allowed tobe said. You actually are going to receive the opposite effect. In order to hurt, people now know what to say; if they don't want to break the law but still hurt you invent new words.

Civilized people who aren't looking to hurt don't care, they simply avoid those words without the law. So you end up with a cat and mouse game where you say you cant use the N word but I sure can invent the same destructive word which isn't the n word. The law is utterly pointless.

So you don't define the words. You just say 'anything that offends' or "anything which incites hatred"

But now even the civilized people are at a loss here. What the law ends up being is a direct method to silence your political opponents. E-word used to be the term for the inuit up in the north. It's now considered a slur. Why? Because it is similar to words that mean snow in other languages that dont matter? But what happened was the inuit used this 'slur' to silence their political opponents. It was orchestrated by the same people who wrote this: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/dear-qallunaat-white-pe...

To anyone you can see the problem with hate speech but better yet that isnt the whole story. We now have compelled speech. Hate speech avoids words, but compelled speech... that's next level. The government under force of law are telling you what you must say. This is to avoid offending people. It's remarkable how bad this has been.

The primary battlefield has been a bunch of overworked doctors have been getting fired from our public healthcare and going into private clinics for more money and less work. All because they were accused of not using the right pronoun. No wonder they don't really try to defend themselves. So what happened? You break your arm or whatever emergency. You'll be in the ER for >15 hours and very likely not be able to see a doctor.

The real argument for free speech is that policing speech is not practical.
Native English speaker here that doesn't know any French and that's a great word! The word reminds me of a horse trot which is a bit faster than walking, so feels like a good description.
