If you do "for (int i = 0; i < len; i++) data[i] = 0;" and len happens to be above 2^31, is your intent to write 2 billion zeroes, and then write 2 billion zeroes behind the data pointer, and repeatedly do that forever (never mind other UB that that results in)? Probably not.

While two's complement signed rollover can be pretty useful, in 99% of cases you don't need it, and casting to unsigned for the 1% is a worthwhile sacrifice for the better optimizations for the common case, and it'll be pretty clear when you want wrapping or not (and sanitizers will be able to keep reporting signed overflow as errors without false positives).
I am pretty sure this happens to me too.

It’s not that I feel the watch causing pain _directly_, like a lot of replies here seem to assume, it’s that if I wear one regularly for more than a couple of weeks, it aggravates my existing tendency to develop pain in my wrists.

There's no public insurance for it, but if there were no regulations against doing what FTX did I'm not sure why their executives are fleeing the country
Are you miss (one time) programmable resistors? They appear in 2000s and where available to by, but expensive.

I have not tried myself, just don't found case to use them.

And I have few high precision resistors, and even microwave resistors, they very different from cheap film resistors.

Fuzzers can already do this. When you set up a fuzzer you set up what functions it's going to call and how it should generate inputs to the function. So you can fuzz the X.509 parsing code and hope it hits punycode parsing paths, but you can also fuzz the punycode parsing routines directly.
> compiler developers back port it in to older versions of C where it was simply unclear

You cannot rely on that. If you're maintaining C90 code, with a C90 compiler or compilation mode, you should go by what is written ISO 9899:1990, plus whatever the platform itself documents.

We actually don't want compiler writers mucking with the support for older dialects to try to modernize it. It's a backward-compatibility feature; if you muck with backward compatibility features, you risk breaking ... backward compatibility!
It's fair to say that according to your own sources that the average commuter according to census.gov loses between 250-520 hours per year commuting if we don't count the 125 they spent getting ready for work. I think pointing out that most people are closer to 250 is quibbling over less than meaningful details.

It's a huge waste.

Think about this from a business finance perspective. Companies have since the early 1900's built an economy around working in offices. Car manufacturers, car service and maintenance businesses, food service companies, commercial real-estate companies and oil and gas companies and many other sectors all have a stake in this game.

Then you have internal forces at play too. HR managers, and department managers don't look so useful when the majority of people never interact in real life. No matter how optimistic we look at the human condition, people have the desire to exercise power and control over others. With people working remote exercising power and control is harder. Additionally, you still have gen-x and boomers working, especially in management who have a different idea of work culture than millennials and gen-z. To the older generations working on-site is the only justifiable way to work. To them the notion of being at home for work is not real work.

There also appears to be a camp of management types who have seen evidence confirming that remote work doesn't work. They are going to stick to their position because they have evidence to support. I recently heard similar sentiments to Musk's take on remote work from Tim Pool, and a manager at my job. They are convinced that meaningful work can only happen in person.

So between those three main factors: Money, power, and bias of evidence the pitch for remote work being an environmental initiative gets drowned out. Really, makes you wonder if environmentalism is really that important for the business leadership class.

I personally believe work from home can be an amazing option for white collar work and for the right person. As a UI developer I love it. I don't get distracted by office stuff and get good flow often. I'm and expert at using online communication tools and desktop publishing tools so I can communicate my ideas and thoughts coherently remotely. However, I've seen some people not be able to manage themselves or have the skills to work from home.
Brilliant synthesis of the problem and why it was difficult.

My feeling is that Carmack is really good at speeding up important parts of video game performance to achieve qualitatively different gaming experience.

Sometimes I wonder if Carmack was born 30 years later, when computing resources make such advances less needed, he would still be as successful? Perhaps he would go on to improve performance of other problems eg virtual reality and deep learning…..
You can be pretty confident without a comprehensive database. If you're unsure about a name then don't pick that one.

For someone with 20:20 (6:6) vision SD means your screen should fill 20 degrees of your viewing angle, HD 30, and UHD 40.

Recommendations for most viewing is 30 degrees, but for the fully immersive THX/Theatre style viewing you want 40 degeres.

That means for watching your 70" TV you should be about 8' away. If you are watching UHD then that's great, you won't see any resolution artifacts, but with HD you will see a difference.

However if you're 9' away from your screen you won't get any uhd resolution benefits.

(That's setting aside other UHD features, especially HDR)

Of course maybe you have better than 20:20 eyesight.
Do they have enough logs to reach out to people that were affected? As far as vulnerabilities go, this set is one is one of the worst ones I've seen this decade, and they seem rather straightforward.

Would be nice to get a blog post from them that goes a bit into impact, not just a report that tells you to update. It's nice that they responded quickly, but I feel like this shouldn't have happened in the first place for a network security company and it makes the Windows client feel like a bit of an afterthought. Looks like they have a PR open to switch it to named pipes, I hope that is properly reviewed by someone that knows Windows APIs before it's merged.
I really appreciate you taking the time to share! The inclusion of the Appsmith name and license on the code used is a great example of how we can be more transparent and ensure proper attribution. Clearly, your team has given careful thought to this topic as well.

There are always so many ways to solve problems, and lots of approaches that are optimized for specific users, tech stacks, industries, etc. Personally, I find so much more value in the exploration of new ideas and different decisions (as you have done) than simply being a "clone" of another tool.

As we move more into this new space, the ability to share libraries and integration patterns could be super useful for us all. I'll be sure to highlight that internally!

Judging by how the gaming industry is going, I'm afraid the subscription model will only expand more in the movie industry as well, until all physical media is considered a legacy format. There will likely never be a successor to current Bluray media.

Studios will love this as they can cut costs on manufacturing and distribution, while forcing consumers into their subscription service.

At that point piracy will be the only way to consume content without any restrictions.
And just because it's manipulation doesn't mean it's bad (in my opinion) - it does what it intends to do and if it dies in second chance, it rots away.

Pioneer drives work out of the box with no firmware update.
When else are you supposed to run errands? Here's my anecdotal driving activity after taking a remote position:

I used to drive every day of the week. Now, it's 3 days, on average. If I could walk or cycle to the gym (roads are 0% accessible for pedestrians), I could easily drop that to one or two days.

In terms of running errands, I've moved that to a "before work" activity. It's honestly amazing how smooth it all goes at 8:00am vs 5:30pm. Plus, I consider this a net positive for the community since I'm one less person clogging up the grocery store at their busiest time.
I tried out VSCode a year ago coming from emacs, but I couldn't bring myself to get started because I missed Emacs' helm-find-files too much. VSCode needing to have directories 'added' before it can navigate to them, and not really showing you the directory tree structure was already a dealbreaker for me.
Are they doing collectory things like alphabetizing them and putting them in special preservation cases, going online to seek out mint copies of special editions, etc?

Not to discount your observations, but I'm curious to differentiate between an active, intentional, curated collection effort, vs hoarding or just not having gotten around to tossing them all out yet despite that none have been touched in 10 years. Most people I know who still have a shelf or two of physical discs in their media/living rooms look a lot more like the second case than the first one.
No. It was to facilitate detecting parasites.
You don't even need a database with immutable records. You just need to make the contents of the database public, so that people can archive a copy and thus easily tell when the data has been altered.

"In some aristocratic households, the Herzog or Fürst would appoint a physician whose sole duty was to inspect the stools of the family members daily, making detailed notes on consistency, form and appearance. He would recommend adjustments to the nobile diet accordingly. The specially shaped receptacles for the material to be inspected thus became intricately associated with nobility and wealth, and during the rapid industrialisation of the late 19th Century, middle class urban households adopted them in vast numbers"

I always wonder with these things: what is the deadline after which you are allowed to say "There is no value".

It has been almost 14 years since the inception of Bitcoin. There is nuance to this timeline that's why I usually use the launch of Ethereum as a starting point (~7 years If I recall correctly). Nevertheless so far nothing substantial running in production has come out of it Blockchain technology.

The typical response then is "well it takes time there is a lot of potential". I mean yeah but if you compare it to something like contactless payments or ride sharing apps these products have moved a lot faster and now have high user adoption.

So again: At what point can we just ignore all these Blockchain prophets that say "just wait the innovation is around the corner". 10 years, 20 years?
Wikipedia handles “New York City” and “NYC” as intended. “NY” and “New York” are ambiguous to both machines and humans (are you referring to the city or the state?) and if you have a resolution strategy for this then Wikipedia gives you the options to disambiguate. I’ve never seen “NYCity” used by anybody.

It's been a while since I've done a class diagram, but I still use sequence diagrams to coordinate non-trivial component interactions. Occasionally, I'll use a state diagram to describe workflow.

I'm always amazed at these datasets.

They tend to ignore things like the laws of physics.

When you live 40 miles away from your destination, there's no way that you'll get there in 37.7 minutes, unless you can do over the state speed limit, the entire time. And that doesn't even count things like congestion, traffic lights, and whatnot.

Frankly, I'm kind of amazed at the nasty reception that my post got. I do apologize for my choice of words, questioning where the person lives, but folks seem to have some kind of stake, in commutes being unnaturally short.

People live in the suburbs, so they can do things like raise families, send their kids to good schools, and enjoy the kinds of leisure pursuits that are only available to wealthy people, close to the city.

There's a lot of people, living out here. I know of several people that live in Wading River, and commute daily, to Manhattan.

The goal of advertising can vary. Sometimes it's just brand recognition, since the average consumer is more likely to buy from a brand they know and trust. Other times it's about pushing an idea or feeling, for example Ford is really pushing their EV pickup trucks because they want people to associate that with Ford. Otherwise, many advertising platforms are actually pretty dumb and just aren't very good at showing relevant ads.

In no way am I advocating or supporting any of this. I hate and loathe advertising and wish we could be rid of it altogether.

This is exactly the mind-set which prevents projects like Minetest from becoming "real" games. Mods are great, but the core game has to be good by itself to attract people. And if Minetest doesn't want to be a "real" game which is good out of the box, that's fine, being a game engine playground is perfectly fine, but that means it's not even trying to be a Minecraft alternative.

Recently purchased a PineTime and have been very impressed. It's more comfortable than my Casio F-91W.

The battery life also seems significantly better than advertised. I unboxed and charged to 100% on 13th November, and now on 21st November it's sitting at 43%. I wake the display up maybe a dozen times per day to check the time, read notifications, or pick up a phone call.

Updating the firmware was a breeze, the thing just works. Only snag I've noticed is that the pedometer is too sensitive, with no obvious way to adjust sensitivity.

I haven't risked showering with it yet, but it's supposed to be waterproof up to 1 meter. I suppose this implies it wouldn't survive a swimming session though.
While it's fair to point out so many of the similarities between the people at the top and the bottom ... there are also differences. Notably, Musk is an outlier in many ways. The vast, vast majority of CEO's are highly conscientious at least in civil terms. They are 'restrained' if anything.

Agreed that you shouldn't design for changes that aren't extremely likely to happen. Ends up overcomplicating things with abstractions on top of abstractions.

And then when a change does come it often isn't even expected and doesn't fit into the abstractions. But because everything is so convoluted, you either need to make a large code change to fit the new feature or you need to put a hack on top that completely invalidates the abstractions.
While I think it is important to share new projects and even brag a bit about our own, I'm not clear on how this adds to the conversation? Illa has been mentioned multiple times here, so at this point it feels a bit spammy. As a developer, I feel like a little bit of self-promotion goes a long way. Hope this helps.
This isn't what Arrow's theorem says. It's not just that there is always someone whose vote happens to match the result (like a fixed-point theorem would). It says that there is a ballot that determines the result.

In other words, the quantifiers are reversed. Instead of "for every list of votes, there is a voter where the outcome is the same as his vote", it is "there is a voter such that for every list of votes, the outcome is the same as his vote."

Now, this doesn't have to be the same person every time you take a vote. The voting systems described in Arrow's theorem just take an ordered list of votes and return a result, and the dictator corresponds to an index in this list. So you can order the votes differently each time if you want, but at the end of the day, it's just a process for deciding how to pick a dictator.
nice work, thanks!
The VAXstation itself doesn't take much power and therefore doesn't generate too much heat. The power supply moves a small amount of air by virtue of its fans, but not much.

It was tested and runs fine in a room at ambient temperature (72º), fully closed, with no external airflow. Because of this, it should never have issues where it's colocated because the datacenter has positive pressure cooling.

Umm, i disagree.

Bad/good faith is about whether you are being misleading or dishonest in asking the question.

You can intend to go attack a project in good faith as long as you are not being misleading in your intentions.

For example, a movie critic who pans a film is not acting in bad faith since they aren't being misleading in their intentions.

A VNA is a vector network analyzer, a device which can make fairly precise measurements of radio frequency electronics networks. These devices used to sell for $10,000 and up, recently someone figured out how to make a reasonably good one for hobby use, and they can be had for $100 or less.

You can use them to test antennas, tune filters, find the frequency of crystals, and other things.
