When I was an intern, I was working for a big company on a project to optimize some call center management. Basically put mainframe reports on an intranet.

The company had made a change of some sort where whatever EDI connection between the telco and the company stopped working. I learned this when and angry facilities guy came up looking for my boss’s boss to sign for a delivery. I was the only person there, so I did. 15 minutes later, two pallets of bankers boxes came up - thousands of single sided pages of itemized call details.
In theory you could make the system refuse to start moving when the battery is less than 8%, and demand to come to a safe stop when under 4% or something like that. For all I know, that's already what it does.

The basic problem with the "you guys are too negative" mindset is that abusers are very common. I'm sure { manager, HR }-you-can-be-friends-with exists. I've at least got very solid friendships with multiple management chains (note the plural, as i think it matters), so I know it is _possible_, the problem is it is _rare_.

To quote one of the HR people I worked with, when I said I was having trouble putting someone just diagnosed with brain cancer on a PIP, "What's the big deal? I just fired someone who just had a heart attack."

The people attracted to the HR career path are basically not good people, either because they aren't particularly bright or driven or because the ones that succeed are basically machiavellian.

ClickHouse will throw an exception in case of not enough memory and continue to serve other queries. Under certain configurations it can OOM as well.

> How confident are you that your chosen dataset is neutral?

I have no idea if it is "neutral", I picked it randomly.

I test ClickHouse on every interesting dataset, see here: https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues?q=is%3Aissue...

The reason - I love working with data :) If I see a dataset, I load it into ClickHouse - this is the first thing I do. This is not a kind of marketing or promotion of ClickHouse - you know, if it were some directed task, it would be uninteresting for me.

<< If I used it and found it useful, does that make me a criminal? >>
Probably whoever's on the other side of the transaction is. If you bought your BTC on localbitcoins you probably got them from a money launderer for instance. Nootropic companies are the most legal crypto users I'm aware of.

I did buy mine from Paypal so you might be onto something.

<< Criminals aren't very smart. If they were, they wouldn't be criminals, which is a very low-paying career.

Um. I would maybe call it a reverse survivor bias. As for the low paying claim, I suppose it depends on other factors, but we are currently commenting on an article, which discusses sums upwards of millions of dollars. Reality is refuting that claim unless you want to include everyone with a felony in that circle ( technically accurate, but I personally think financial fraud is its own world that lives outside petty criminal circles ). I am open to rebuttal.

<< The regular financial system doesn't need to be 100% immune to hacking because it can undo transactions.

Hmm. It technically can, but, for example, as some people in fraud cases unfortunately found out, once wire is sent out, getting it back is not as simple as pressing a button even for institutions within the same jurisdiction. You are not exactly wrong, but you are not right about it either.

I will admit that this is a first time I see that stated this way and I am a little confused. In a very practical sense, nothing is 100% immune if history is any indicator. If my router is hacked, the fact that I revert it to its prior state makes ok? The original issue remains in place. I am sorry, it is just an odd argument to make. Can you elaborate on what you meant?

Crocs became fashionable shortly after they released a $1200 collaboration with fashion house Balenciaga, but there is also high correlation with the popularity of crocs and the proliferation of chunky sneakers and silhouettes. Fashion is cyclical and Crocs were able to create an iconic and affordable product and lasted long enough for the fashion cycle to reach them.

Interestingly, Balenciaga released a collaboration with Vibram Five-Fingers and to little surprise toe shoes are still unfashionable (although more acceptable now than when I wore a pair a decade ago I think).

That's what Ada does, yes. You'd let the array (or whatever collection) do the work for you:

for I in A'Range loop
A(I) = A(I) + A(I);
end loop;

Whatever the range is, this will work. If you really need the first and last elements or want to be explicit:

Start := A'First;
End := A'Last;

And if the type of the range (since any discrete type can be used) doesn't support simple incrementing with +1 or similar, you can use 'Succ to step through:

Index := A'First;
Index := Whatever_Type'Succ(Index);

Also 'Pred to work backwards. Those can be wrapped up in a simpler function if desired.
No need to "look forward" to something they've already published. You can read numerous examples of it for yourself on their site.
Here is what we were told repeatedly and constantly throughout middle and high school (mid to late 90s):

* You should go to college.

* You should do what you love.

* Sure some jobs pay more that others, but that doesn't matter if you are doing what you love.

What was completely left out of the discussion was that some degrees won't actually enable you to do what you love. They'll just load you with tons of debt, making it harder to even get by let alone do what you love as a side gig. I never once heard a guidance councilor or other adult tell that to me or my peers. The "it is rare to get that sort of job" speech was reserved for people who wanted to play sports or be rock-stars, not those thinking about an academic degree. Maybe it was because I was from an underprivileged community, and any students who showed a desire to go to college were encouraged, not stifled.
Something tells me you've been defending your foot fashion choices for a long while now ;)

I don't see throughput information on Intel's AMX, but their VNNI has information: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/intrinsics-guid...

0.5 cycles per instruction max, 3.7GHz clock, that's 7.4e9 instructions per second. If I'm reading it right, that instruction does 16 4-wide dot products, which is ~128 ops. So ~950Gops peak in int8 precision on a server class Xeon assuming no clock throttling.

(edit: flops -> ops)

second order effects of this preference for video is how poorly video content gets indexed.

With text, searching of obscure things is cumbersome but possible. With video its impossible.

Meaning I, as a user cannot take the shortest path to my target content simply because of the medium.

I now default to looking for really old books on my topic of interest, or authoritative sources like textbooks and official documentation and then skim and weed through them to get to a broader understanding. Very often this has led to me on to better questions on that topic.

Online I prefer to look at search results from focussed communities, reddit, HN, StackOverflow, car forums, etc. I just never go to video for anything beyond recipes , quick fixes to broken appliances and kids videos.

It would be nice to prioritize videos which are deemed at "high risk" of being deleted, with bayes statistics or machine learning or something like that.
It seems like it would be pretty easy to stand near one of these with a frequency counter, or even a handheld Yeasu FT-60 and find out what frequency it's using. It would be very clear if it was relaying data or voice as well. From there you could take that frequency and figure who would be using it and what for.
You've done some of the work, but do you know many middle-aged or older tradespeople? Their joints are shot and they have aches all over and they fuck up their back on the regular.

I have a couple of questions...

- So LiteFS turns sqlite into a client server database. But SQLite being embedded is what gives it its low latency in the first place. So, I kind of have to ask - what's point? Just prefering the way sqlite does SQL over postgres?

- What language is that database model under "Evaluating the existing data"?
Yeah, so a CS degree was positioned as more valuable and it was obviously so than English in 2000.
This is awesome, thanks for sharing! Will you share the source so we can run this locally?
A multiparty system also has long-term coalitions that don't realign very often. The UK has prominent parties aside from the top two, but they are nearly all in permanent alignments with one party or the other.

They do provide a mechanism for those realignments when they do happen. The Tories only needed to convince LibDem leadership to join a coalition with them in 2007, rather than pulling members individually. That realignment was not successful, and it nearly wiped out the party.

As you note, parties and coalitions-of-parties tend to reach ideological coherence and stay there. They all depend on long-term horse-trades that last between legislative sessions. Anybody who jumps parties (either individually or as a group) will be regarded with suspicion for a long time: they don't have a history of deals, and in fact are known to be untrustworthy.

Any realignment usually starts with a deadweight loss. In the LibDem's case, it was voting for a new Prime Minister in exchange for a referendum -- one which received little support and failed badly. They were taken advantage of, and they should have known they were being taken advantage of.

(The architect of that is now Vice-President for Global Affairs and Communications at Facebook, for what that's worth)

So a multi-party system does present opportunities, for realignments, but in a mature system they still don't happen all that often. The network of deals is self-reinforcing and hard to restructure.

This case is a little unusual in that there is a set of people who are effectively un-aligned. They don't really have any goals except the disruption of government. They're elected in alignment with a party who uses a lot of anti-government rhetoric, but they don't have any real goals in governing. They're perfectly content to let the Speaker's chair be empty, and there's not much you can offer them.
The problem is not finding where the constants are defined, it's about finding what the code does based on a hardware datasheet, the constants could be in a file, or could be scattered throughout, it doesn't matter at all.

You can also use the magic of base 16 to search for lexical subsets of a value to find where code uses things with the same mask, which are probably related. Extremely effective in reverse engineering a hardware device.
With the rise of cheap 4k cameras, it goes faster than you think.
I download guitar training videos where a 25 minute tutorial can be 2-3gbs. I believe those are “only” 2k resolution. If you do not download them in a space conscious format or recompress (using mildly aggressive settings can drop them to 100mb), a handful of videos can quickly fill a hard drive.
IA does seems to archive YT video content, at least last time I tried to watch a deleted but popular video.

That warning actually depends on the “carrier profile”, a configuration file the phone silently fetches (or has cached in firmware builds) based on certain attributes of the SIM like the ICCID or MCC/MNC.

Interesting article covering the nitty gritty details of production deployments. I can’t help but think something is wrong with anonymous users though?

Loading the site was noticeably slow in MEL despite a SYD deployment. Took ~8s to load the page on a fast home fibre connection, abnormally slow for local sites, typical for US-only deployments.

I wonder if anonymous users are unnecessarily being given a session for tracking purposes, and that is causing the slowness. Cycling session IDs for authenticated users makes sense for the UX benefit of not having to log in again, but that speed issue is terrible for low intent anonymous users landing on the site for the first time.

Oh, I was thinking something far more mundane, like "People in your life stop choosing to associate with you once they learn how you spend your free time" or "Your employer considers you a liability for corporate image / discipline / legal entanglement (because if it's actually illegal content and you used their network, they can be liable if they look the other way)."
If your try hard enough, you can always find a plausible sounding reason why it's impossible to improve your life. It's best not to take any risks, and always blame others for your problems. You can earn a lot of upvotes that way.

When I was doing bare metal programming I was doing this all then time, depending on what I was doing maybe even tens of times an hour. And it's not just source code either, these days even debugging tools print values in this way making it a total PITA to reverse engineer things because you can't easily match values coming in from different tools, or from the tool and source code, etc.

rqlite author here -- happy to answer any questions. While rqlite[1] does replicate a SQLite database, it's not simply a replication system (just to be clear). It's a distributed database that uses SQLite as its database engine, and replicates for fault tolerance. That said, it mostly exposes SQLite via its HTTP API, so can work for many SQLite applications[2].
