I wonder if their backend systems are also ancient and it's hard to bring that to the web.
Protobuf was the first major project I was aware of that uses zigzag encoding for integers. They then encode those integers using the typical 7 bit encoding scheme where the msb indicates there's another byte following. I'm sure they weren't the first by any means though.

I'm currently using this in a binary format for serializing dynamic JSON-like values that I invented and am implementing in Rust. I will release it as open source sometime next year.
that's not my point. tp says "just accept the mess and go on with your life, but do your best". I'm saying this is an oxymoron.

Usually hiring managers are a bit compassionate about hiring workers laid off by other companies. But in this case, when an application of someone recently at Google comes up, the first question is going to be if they were fired due to performance reasons. Whatever happened to the do no evil.
Why is this even needed? It is easy to look at the market and also to just look at CPI numbers and boost your rent.
> It would not be surprising if cloud providers (major power users) are being asked to not increase (or even decrease) power usage.

I doubt it. It will be easier - and probably safer - to ask citizens and physical industry (eg, factories) to bear the brunt than to risk having problems in critical IT infrastructure. Ask people and factories to turn the heat 3 degrees down and the effects will be more or less predictable. Asking to shut compute power down at random will have unpredictable consequences.

Thanks for posting this. I’m Australian and I have never heard of Ibis being reviled and I thought I’d missed something. I mean isn’t there even a hotel chain called Ibis? (I seem to recall being stuck in the elevator with my then-ex girlfriend one night…)

The article really doubled down on the “reviled” nature of the birds that I figured they must know something. Do they really steal food from our of peoples hands? I’ve had a miner do that but the Ibis near me seem to stay away from people.

But then again, this is the BBC. I don’t know if there exists a worse news organisation that regards itself more highly.

Not the case here tho is it
> People get so upset about Toot and Coq and Gimp, but Gore seems totally OK.

For me (a native American English speaker) the context matters. When used in a name or as part of a longer name (e.g. Gore-TEX), it's totally okay. Actual gore can be upsetting, but the word itself is commonly used in content warnings and guides.

"Gimp" is different than "Coq" or "Cox" (a popular cable provider in the U.S.) in that it's considered offensive to the disabled (if the person saying it is not disabled), where homonyms for naughty bits are generally not taken super-seriously.
It is a theory alleging a conspiracy. What part of that needs further explanation?

Chardin took the concept directly from Vernadsky, I think he meet him in a french conference. See also Olaf Stapledon "Star Maker" for a fictional treatment. Is also interesting his influence on Bogdanov.
I'm not sure why this was downvoted. I did leave out one thing - I think the Ghana government is making a statement that they don't want to transact in dollars. That is an important difference, but it is not related to the monetary dynamics.
I would not apply sanctions, and not do anything until the opportunity arose to do something that is effective.

The idea that we must perform an ineffective and self-destructive measure just because it's the only one we can think of doing is not good statecraft.

also sometimes what's in robots.txt becomes invisible to the corporation as well and abviously bugs creep in
You're joking of course, but that likely won't do anything useful.

If it's tracked, then ignore has no effect. If it's not tracked, then you might as well use .git/info/excludes which is pretty much the same thing but not tracked, or you can use a global excludes file, like ~/.gitignore is common (you have to configure git to point at it, iirc).

It _could_ make sense to ignore the .gitignore if some other tool is parsing and using that file, but that pattern is...troublesome so I hope not.
"de nile" is a play on words.

"In denial" is basically a pop psychology term, meaning that we are not admitting something that is true and obvious[0].

Like, if our spouse is cheating on us, and they come home at 1AM, smelling of booze and perfume, with lipstick all over their collar, but we say "I'm sure he was just working late."

The "Vegas Fountain" bit is a joke, as they have a pyramid-shaped building, for the Luxor casino[1].

Serviceability is improved (though still not amazing) in all the machines with chassises redesigned during the "M" era — the "notched" MBP 14/16 and Air have easily accessible bottom screws (no need to remove rubber feet first) and don't have batteries glued in. Keyboards can be changed independently from the top case too. Notably, many Windows laptops fail on both of those counts (like the LG Gram which hides screws under adhesive-attached feet).

But yes, it's difficult to find laptops as well-rounded as MacBooks are. Generally laptops will require you to make significant sacrifices in multiple categories to be good at one or two things, which is less true of MacBooks (particularly the 14"/16" Pro models), especially if you want good performance without the laptop being huge and bulky and/or have horrible battery life with constantly-screaming fans. The 14"/16" models get you performance in the ballpark of a desktop Ryzen 5800X while unplugged and still getting great battery life while also being silent and still reasonably portable, along with a killer screen, great speakers, decent keyboard and great trackpad.

The opposite is the case.

Commercial software has a higher risk of becoming unavailable, because of missing licenses, acquisitions, insolvencies and other things that simply do not affect FOSS.

I have been using Audacity, Gimp, OpenOffice / LibreOffice, Thunderbird and Firefox for many years now and I don't see them disappearing anytime soon.

The reasons are not FOSS or privacy, but underinvestment and incompetence.
Well, we don't really know. Maybe there's some easy-to-guess text file in /misc/ that contains a password for something. We don't know what we don't know. We do know that there's considerably more information exposed here than zero - the question is whether any of that information could lead to sensitive information, not whether or not it constitutes sensitive information by itself.
crypto is a ponzi scheme because liquidity in it only comes from the next sucker buying in. it’s not connected to anything that generates or has value, you can only get out of your position if you can convince some one else to hold the bag. in a sense this is true of all markets but only in a very weak sense. assets linked to governments or value generating corporations will have value for the foreseeable future, you don’t have to race to find a sucker to liquidate your position

> I've noticed this trend following very "busy" 1800s signs/newspapers/etc up to now. People back then weren't addicted to fast and easy dopamine and had the mental space to parse something with detail on it.

I've recently been reading Amusing Ourselves to Death (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amusing_Ourselves_to_Death), and it noted that in the 1800s America has a "literate" culture: people read a lot and had correspondingly longer attention spans. Apparently attending debates and lectures were a fairly common activity, and those went on for hours, with each side having plenty of time to express complete and complex thoughts, e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lincoln%E2%80%93Douglas_debate...:

> Each debate lasted about three hours; one candidate spoke for 60 minutes, followed by a 90-minute response and a final 30-minute rejoinder by the first candidate. The candidates alternated speaking first. As the incumbent, Douglas spoke first in four of the debates....

> The debates took place between August and October 1858. Newspapers reported 12,000 in attendance at Ottawa,[7] 16,000 to 18,000 in Galesburg,[4] 15,000 in Freeport,[8] 12,000 in Quincy, and at the last one, in Alton, 5,000 to 10,000.[6] The debates near Illinois's borders (Freeport, Quincy, and Alton) drew large numbers of people from neighboring states.[9][full citation needed][10] A number travelled within Illinois to follow the debates.[7]

I completely agree, but we are talking about two different things. If my colleagues, customers, people from other departments say I'm not doing my job well, I should be fired - but immediately, without waiting for any global layoffs.

However, yearly performance reviews are a joke. At least in all places I worked at, and in spite of various efforts by the management to rationalize them. And I'm saying this in spite of getting great reviews all the time.
I really don't see this as a problem, humans are using resources at an unsustainable rate, we need fewer people, not more.

Yes. While I have not seen it happen yet, there is plenty of precedent in cyber warfare tactics in general to have trojaned devices act in this way. The likelihood may be low, but it also very possible, and Hikivsion has already shown they cannot be trusted, so why risk it?

I absolutely agree that different people are triggered by different things, and in my opinion it's good that we recognize and respect that.

On the other hand I'm convinced there are things that are universally NSFL for everyone and I believe that the parent comment is geared in that direction.

The meta-analysis seems to include only papers that deal with the first kind of trigger:

" The warning, as conceptualized by the authors of the relevant publication, was
intended to notify participants that forthcoming content may trigger memories or emotions relevant to past experiences."
Where can I get the FSD (Fake Self Driving) source code?
Nonsense.

Everyone uses git for source control, of course you check out a site with git.

All you are telling people with a .gitingore is what is _not_ available.

It means exactly that people can not access them if your site is a checkout, because they aren't there.
If one is willing to be that vague in drawing connections, one can reduce nearly every problem to any other one. But Turing was a mathematician, and very precise with his definitions (albeit not quite as pedantic as some successors such as Aho/Ullman decades later).

The interesting bit about Turing's result is that it can be adapted to a wide class of mathematical and real objects. Physical systems? Yep. Time and/or space bounded machines? You bet. Actually, at its core Turing's result is itself an adaptation of Gödel's, who more broadly talks about the context of first-order mathematical theories.

If one want to bring these concepts to practice (where by practice I mean the realm of proving results in theoretical cs), it's a lot more effort than comparing claims to a simple sequence with an easy to derive limit. For an introductory example of the subtlety involved, while the two series (1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + ...) and (2 - 1/2 - 1/4 - 1/8 - ...) both approach 1 in opposite directions, most uncomputable numbers cannot be approached from both sides simultaneously (by a computably enumerable process, anyway). For example, while Chaitin's number is a definite number, you cannot write down any program whose sequence of outputs converges to it from above. They're all wrong. Comparing that to probably the most basic convergent infinite series in mathematics (that doesn't end in all zeros) is quite a disservice to the complexity and beauty of the field.
Okay. I seemed to have not noticed anything particularly new starting around then. But I take your word for it.

If everyone is saying you’re not doing your job well then they might have a point. The issue is that’s it’s often just a PM or EM saying it and no one else. Firings are often made based upon how the manager feels and that’s all it takes.

People who ruffle feathers of PMs and EMs are often the best performers but get axed for questioning authority. But are they fired for asking questions? No - they’ll be axed for “performance” when in reality it’s more due to not wanting anyone to undermine their authority/job security.

I’ve worked in SV for a while - it’s extremely political and not based upon meritocracy at all. People who get promoted are most often the biggest boot lickers and average performers.

Most firings I’ve seen are pure bullshit and are only due to someone in an authoritarian position wanting slaves and not engineers.

It's 3.9% (which rounds up to 4%, not to 3%) this year and 5.6% next year.

This forecast is based on figures kindly provided by Russian authorities, which in times of war have strong incentives to be creative.
To me this is the clear downside of having a competitive, efficient society: it is so competitive, and so efficient, that people correctly calculate that by bypassing kids, they can save more & lose less time.

That's where the the economic pressure (which societies seem to want, lest people become 'lazy') pushes the next generation. When that's what you incentivize, that's what you get - not just in Korea but all over the modern world.

Most often it's a hardware limitation because the cables/adapters use the MCDP2900 converter chip inside, even when they advertise HDMI2.1 support. That's the same chip inside the built-in HDMI port of the new MacBook Pro and its datasheet [0] says it only supports up to 60hz

That chip is also the reason for a lot of support emails I'm getting on Lunar (https://lunar.fyi/) because it seems to break DDC/CI and hardware brightness control stops working through cables and ports that use it.

As I understand it, there are two phases in meditation that should be clearly distinguished to avoid confusion.

- Phase 1. When you engage in it, you indeed need to "abandon any intentions or goals" and “do nothing on purpose" because your goal is that emptiness.

- Phase 2. Once you attain that state of "emptiness", you are now (and only now) able to very sharply focus the mind on a particular object, thought, or activity.

Active dreaming could be seen as one of those activities. You need at least a minimum degree of that meditative "emptiness" for unlocking the process you called "Active dreaming".

I think "Active imagination" [0] is a term Jung used for a similar technique.

Not to defend the Twitter situation, which is foolhardy by almost any measure, but it's extremely uncommon for any company's main landing page to relate in any way to their software engineering team.

Usually these marketing sites are running a CMS (this one looks like Drupal) which is owned and operated by either an internal team who report to the CIO / IT department (vs the Product/Engineering group) or a totally external third-party marketing firm.

As long as the "real" product uses different subdomains, certificates, proper HSTS, cross-origin protection, and secure cookies (a tall order, yes, but something that would be an issue no matter what the marketing site is doing), security issues in the "marketing" site aren't as bad. Of course a marketing site takeover is still worrying, as it's a prime entry point for spearphishing and horizontal movement through social engineering, but these usually aren't the same engineers or security team at all.
