Hi Mickey, ah no -- you've done WAY more than me in this area! I had been meaning to try your combobulate package.

FWIW: after 20 years of Emacs I personally switched to VSCode a couple of years ago because I felt that in Emacs I was missing out on the LSP experience that VSCode provided in Rust, Typescript, Scala, etc. (I was using Eglot). In any case, there's a very nice Emacs emulation mode in VSCode

which includes some paredit functionality courtesy of

and I'm working on porting my favorite paredit function, paredit-kill. Unfortunately that's the one where the paredit author left this comment in the code:

;;; Please do not try to understand this code unless you have a VERY

Yes, indeed. What you just quoted is in fact the language of crude conspiracy theory, not even of the most cursory thinking about real-world systems and structures of oppression.
This definitely won't be abused.

Since this thread is the most relevant - my partner has been struggling for a long time to get going into the field as a Data Analyst/BI analyst doing SQL, Tableau, Excel and (beginner) Python/Pandas. She has been hunting for junior positions or even internships with no luck so far.

Here in the EU, either her career gap (due to covid + country change + taking time to upskill herself) gets in the way, or C-level German language does, and if nothing else, they're hiring Seniors.

Same for me, the closest match is 0.36. But I expected that because I don't speak english very well so the pool of candidates is small.
There was a good ‘Programming Languages’ MOOC on Coursera from University of Washington. It used 3 languages in this order: Standard ML, Racket and Ruby.
Hang in there, it's only been one week?
> Whatever floats your boat, but iSCSI is limited to 1500 MTU (9k? Are you sure you can boot with 9k enabled?) and while you can have 10Gbit throughput that doesn't mean what you will get it always, eg 100 IO operations would generate 100 packets and it doesn't matter if it was 1500B each or only 100B.

Ugh, ISCSI does have queueing so you can have many operations in flight, and one operation doesn't really translate to one packet in the first place, kernel will happily pack few smaller operations to TCP socket into one packet when there is load.

The single queue is the problem here but dumb admin trick is just to up more than one IP on the server and connect all of them via multipath
The Supreme Court has made many awful rulings with respect to the first amendment.

Chaplinsky v. New Hampshire is another one.

Just astoundingly awful
> doesn't take into account the information you would need to learn anything about which candidate equivalency relation is better

OK, no one said it did that. Its purely comparing characters, which is and always was what I said it was doing. And somehow it took 5 comments before you even decided to actually read the answer. Maybe next time you should start by actually reviewing and understanding what you are commenting on, before making multiple comments.
I think people are sort of confused at what this tool is supposed to be which I will concede is partially my fault. The results of this tool are by themselves not indicative of having an alternative account. It generates the 20 most similar users for every single user on the site, regardless of whether they have an alt or not (there's obviously no way for me to know that for every single user). In your case further investigation would reveal that none of those accounts are yours.
Orion spacecraft breaks Apollo 13 flight record
Personally, I'd guess that I wouldn't consider it "stealing" an identity if it were evenly trained off a couple of individuals. But it is a weird case ethically. Can I just train a model off of my favourite bloggers' works and tweets, and release a tweetbot replying to stuff I think would be topical? I've basically done that, but not hooked it up to Twitter, and I think that might be fine as long as the model is private. But this is certainly thorny ground.
Any chance that this is an accounting game to create losses that offset profits elsewhere? Like Hollywood productions that make everyone very well paid but lose money officially.
I think the person you're replying to is confusing IOPS with latency. If you add enough parallelism, then NAND flash random-read IOPS will eventually reach DRAM performance.

But it's not going to be easy - for a sense of scale I just tested a 7950x at stock speeds with stock JEDEC DDR5 timings. I inserted a bunch of numbers in an 8GB block of memory, and with a deterministic random seed randomly pick 4kb pages, computing their sum and eventually reporting that (to avoid overly clever dead-code analysis, and make sure the data is fully read).

With an SSD-friendly 4K page size that resulted in 2.8 million iops of QD1 random read. By comparison, a web search for intel's 5800x optane's QD1 results shows 0.11 million iops, and that's the fastest random read SSD there is at those queue depths, AFAIK.

If you add parallelism, then ddr5 reaches 11.6 million iops at QD16 (via 16 threads), fast SSDs reach around 1 million, the optane reaches 1.5 million. An Epyc Genoa server chip has 6 times as many DDR5 memory channels as this client system does; and I'm not sure how well that scales, but 60 million 4kb random read iops sounds reasonable, I assume. Intel's memory controllers are supposedly even better (at least for clients). Turning on XMP and PBO improves results by 15-20%; and even tighter secondary/tertiary timings are likely possible.

I don't think you're going to reach those numbers not even with 24 fast NVMe drives.

And then there's the fact that I picked the ssd-friendly 4kb size; 64-byte random reads reach 260 million iops - that's not quite as much bandwidth as @ 4kb, but the scaling is pretty decent. Good luck reaching those kind of numbers on SSDs, let alone the kind of numbers a 12-channel server might reach...

We're getting close enough that the loss in performance at highly parallel workloads is perhaps acceptable enough for some applications. But it's still going to be a serious engineering challenge to even get there, and you're only going to come close under ideal (for the NAND) circumstances - lower parallelism or smaller pages and it's pretty much hopeless to arrive at even the same order of magnitude.
does it use the most used words or least used?
3-6. But I try to line up the next one in the last 3, or right away if it’s a 3 month gig.

Lately I’ve been “specialized” in cloud ops mentorship. Lots of businesses still run monoliths, have no CICD or secops. I don’t automatically nudge them to break the monolith up; some are well organized and documented and work for the biz. Mostly I help them establish a smoother “idea to deployment” pipeline.

Though after 4 years it’s become pretty repetitive. I’ve been tinkering with the Linux kernel internals again, thinking about looking for lower level gigs.
0.6 isn't much. I have 3 matches above 0.6, and they're not me. 20 or so over 0.5.

I would recommend calling your project something else. ie, not LuaJIT.

Holy shit, it works really, really good. It found all of my older accounts.
You can also only receive this for up to 12 months - afterwards you go into the much lower, somewhat notorious program nicknamed "Hartz 4". You receive funds around the poverty threshold, and they get withheld if you e.g. travel out of state unannounced of fail to attend interviews or seminars they book you for. If they think your apartment is too large for you, even if it's cheap enough, you are forced to move. Any savings you have, you are forced to spend. Unemployment life in Germany isn't as rosy as this post makes it sound. That said, the system is being replaced by a less controversial one called "citizen money" soon.

Personally, if I get laid off, I would probably also not jump on the _very_ first offer I get desperately, but try to land something good. That's what the higher amount you get for up to 12 months is quite useful for.
Procrastination is an emotional response to the task you need to complete. So think about why you aren't engaging with the task. It is almost always based on some kind of fear, i.e. fear of failure, fear of judgement etc...

If you have ADHD or are otherwise distracted easily then block hacker news at the DNS level. This will suck for 2 weeks but it works.
Since I graduated college, I have always:

- encouraged people and myself to hold on to about 6 months of runway because the future is unknown.

- encouraged myself and others to never have a single source of income.

- always be sharpening your skills. They get dull, redundant, and obsolete within ~5 years.

Live by these mantras, if one has the luxury to do so, and being laid off is nothing more than a disappointment.
For companies that do on-campus recruiting it is the busiest hiring time of year. But for experienced devs it might be a weird time to look.
These articles come out with some regularity, and yet no one ever says, "Yep! That's totally me! I'm a non contributing zero but I've made a living at making others think I add to the team!" Everyone knows people like this, but no one is one.

I’m a bit puzzled by the author’s statement that they’re building a method-at-a-time JIT here.

Sure, that’s an interesting thing you can do and get a Lua JIT, but I don’t see how that is going to be close to the original, tracing LuaJIT, where much of the simplicity (AFAICT) comes from how it creatively punts on several hard backend problems: optimizing in the presence of complex control flow (an linear sequence possibly followed by a loop, that’s all you get on the lowest level), tricky monomorphization decisions (the types you traced are the types you codegen for), eliminating allocations (exiled to trace exits as much as possible), etc.
I knew an old guy at my previous employer who, when he needed to make a presentation, would do it in Notepad. Text was separated by the exact number of lines that a PgDn would get you, so it was all just one big txt document he could very easily jump through. Clever and hilarious.
> It is past time to embargo them.

Easier said than done when they are the dominant or at least major supplier of many strategic materials. It will take time to find economically viable alternative suppliers. Globalism is rapidly collapsing and China won’t for long be able to remain a reliable trading partner even if they desperately wanted to be, so we ought to be urgently securing sufficient alternative suppliers anyway.
> I see the parent comment clearly stating small blogs lifting content from SO and SEO-optimising it.

Are we talking about the same comment?

> when a small site posts something and then that content gets stolen and posted verbatim as an answer on stackoverflow.

This is about SO answers stolen from small blogs, not SO answers stolen and copied to SEO optimized pages.
Unless we’re not reading the sentence the same way somehow?
I don't think banks need a correspondent bank in the US to work with US dollars. There are clearing houses, such as USD-CHATS in Hong Kong, that will settle transactions in US dollars.

Insightful that your personal experience and impact on you personally affects your decision. I invite you to think about the impact of the products you build in your CS career by putting yourself in the shoes of other people as well.

Some products should not be built, even though it's easy to build them.

>This figure is lower than the $370 per install that was negotiated earlier. However, the expert witness believes that this is warranted due to the large volume of the deal and the fact that the software company’s cash position was rather low at the time.

Interesting how the court is using the business' past financials to reconstruct what would have been negotiated if the infringement hadn't happened.
Exact opposite thing happened with me while being on estrogens. Right after couple of months I started my HRT I started to become extroverted. I was a very introverted kid that hated interacting with other people. After starting on estrogens I was kinda worried that I'd become more introverted over time. But nope. The exact opposite happened. I suddenly started liking the outside world more than before. I'd go to shopping with my friends, go to events, cons. stuff that I wouldn't even imagine doing before.
I guess everyone responds to hormones differently.
the video surveillance bans all seem to target billion dollar companies, so its safe to say this is just your friendly lobbyists at ring, nest, and amazon getting an early christmas gift. the security argument is pretty flimsy considering how many american companies are just as bad (looking at you nest)

the usual suspect, huawei, has been on americas shitlist ever since they beat US telcos to market with 5g. their cellphones all meet or exceed the build quality of a samsung or iphone and to date america has failed to produce any real evidence of a security issue except 'china scary.'

toward the end of the presser its refreshing to see an octogrnarian made sure to remind us all these companies are to some extent "government funded" as if americas subsidies to auto and airlines are somehow any different. "government owned" also gets condescendingly asserted as if the reader isnt familiar with how a planned economy under post soviet marxist theory works.

ever since the net neutrality fiasco ive lost a lot of faith in the fcc. largely a toothless organization of corporate business interests.
The problem is there are times when minutiae is important. The skill is knowing when it is important and when it isn't.
Im not sure why you are getting so many negative comments. For those that are interested in open source, and would be contributing to projects regardless, I think this is a great idea. Also, it sounds like a good way to distract oneself from the normal expectations/disappointment cycle of interviewing

"Doing work for free", as some others have pointed out in a negative light, is fundamental to how modern software works. If you're not contributing then you're profiting off of the minority that does...

The lack of usage is not a use. Preservation means changing the legal status of the land permanently, and it also prevents the land owner from using the land for other purposes in the future.

Exactly.

We have interviewed a fake cybersecurity specialist some time ago. And I still use this experience as the main evidence that a pure compliance role, without technical expertise in system administration, does not make any sense. "He will make sure that there is a firewall everywhere, but will not make sure that your database is only accessible from the EC2 instance that runs your web app".
and that's fine in the scheme of things. Random one-off imports by researchers or hobbyists via AliExpress? NBD.

Deployments at-scale where vendor support engineers could theoretically use cellular gear for passive collection? Major concern.

Hytera being used for commercial 2-way radio? Similar concerns on the repeater side, not to mention questions about encryption quality if they are used by governments.

You have to name the vendor for commercial 2-way radio licenses, for USDA RUS funding, etc. Lying on those forms brings far worse penalties than what a random individual buying a Hytera DMR for ham use off Amazon would face.

Hikvision is the odd name here. AFAIK they do not make cellular handsets or base stations and were already prohibited from being used on government contracts.

> But that change alone would not change any meaningful properties of bitcoin.

Sure it would, it would change that resource cost per transaction.

> You think bitcoin is a total waste, I get it. But that statistic doesn't help your argument.

I disagree, if 97% of servers at AWS were there for some hand-wavey notion of 'providing security' without quantification I think Amazon would be roundly mocked.

> You are right, and this isn't how bitcoin works.

Yes it is. You just re-stated my position with slightly different wording.

I said the security model was "as much as you can afford." You can afford block reward plus fees times price. The security model is "spend as much of that as you can without regard for what you need to achieve security." The issue is that block reward plus fees times price is not a function of how much security is required.

> Where in that tweet does Hal characterize bitcoin as ridiculous or unsustainable?

I never said 'ridiculous' - obviously I don't think Hal would make that claim, so let's stick to what I did say :) I think it is not unreasonable to extrapolate from his tweet that he believe that at the limit CO2 would be an issue. CO2 itself is an issue of sustainability. You can disagree with that interpretation, but I do not think that an average unbiased observer would find my reading unreasonable.

You seem to be trying to win an argument at all costs, putting words into my mouth, running with uncharitable interpretations and arguing in bad faith - in this thread and the other. If you read carefully you'll find I paid close attention not to move goalposts. I'm going to cut it off here. It's particularly silly because you've already admitted you agree to my premise that it is not carbon neutral.

It's different because you're removing all barriers to access and making it easy and convenient to stalk/dox people.

Imagine you get the urge to track someone, but in order to do that you have to spend a week writing some new software. That's a barrier. And because of it you may change your mind because it's a lot of work with little payoff.

But if that info is just one click away, it's a whole different ballgame.

Thank you! I was trying to find the original essay I learned it from. I’m now pretty sure it was by Poe, but all I can remember is the main advice: avoid common metaphors.

I vaguely remember one of the metaphors in the essay was about a chicken coop melting, or something like that. It was vivid enough to leave a big impression.
I find it interesting how democrats fell into a pit that I used to think was something only Trump and his ilk followed.

The two parties really are the same at the core. One may pretend to be conservative and the other screech in woke language but they always converge on the parts that actually matter like geopolitics.

When Trump duked it out against China, democrats pretended to be offended. Now, democrats are in power, and they're pushing even harder to ban China.

The US is such a sham democracy.

You will not hear anything from the brainwashed apart from "things coming from China are bad because it's China !111!" when in reality those bans exist because American companies simply are not competitive and are looking for America to become a captive market for American corpos.
