>> Or, how is it that the local manages to be clairvoyant enough to choose the same windows?

Yes! In content defined chunking, the chunk boundaries depend on the content, in our case a 64 byte window. If the local and the remote files have the same 64 byte sequence anywhere, and that 64 byte sequence has some magic pattern of 0s and 1s, they will both have chunk boundaries there. A chunk is the range of data between two chunk boundaries, so if N consecutive chunk boundaries match, then N-1 consecutive chunks match.

You'd have us thinking that eating meat helps save water.

https://ourworldindata.org/land-use

We globally dedicate 75% of agri land to the animal agriculture, btw it's larger area than all forests together.

https://waterfootprint.org/en/water-footprint/product-water-...

"Per ton of product, animal products generally have a larger water footprint than crop products. The same is true when we look at the water footprint per calorie. The average water footprint per calorie for beef is twenty times larger than for cereals and starchy roots. When we look at the water requirements for protein, it has been found that the water footprint per gram of protein for milk, eggs and chicken meat is about 1.5 times larger than for pulses. For beef, the water footprint per gram of protein is 6 times larger than for pulses."

https://www.cowspiracy.com/facts

"Agriculture is responsible for 80-90% of US water consumption.

5% of water consumed in the US is by private homes. 55% of water consumed in the US is for animal agriculture.

Animal Agriculture is responsible for 20%-33% of all fresh water consumption in the world today."

Because my ssh agent confirms each key use, I enable agent forwarding on every ssh connection without fear.

I suspect its the way text is normalized to tokens does funny things with sequences of dashes and dots.

It does text to Morse well, it explains its interpretations of Morse as text quite well, but consistently, even though it repeats the entered Morse sequence correctly, the series of dots and dashes it uses in the explanation don’t match what was entered. (I suppose its also possible it normalizes write and its training set has too little Morse-to-text so the input-output relationship is not captured in the model strongly enough.

So the argument here is that if you have few followers or loads of followers then the ratio of views to likes don't matter, or 1% is fine, but if you're in the middle with 480k it's very important and shows that you're out of touch if you only get 1%?

That doesn't seem particularly reasonable. If only 1% of users at any level are really engaging with the platform then its fair to say the platform has a problem.
The problem is who are you listening to.

If you talk about anything in a public place, say in a pub, it won't take long to hear a differing opinion.

We've worked so hard to create closed communities on the Internet, that you're not exposed to opposite ideas unless you work hard at looking outside your bubble. Social media with its very smart recommendation algos will try to keep you firmly in your echo chamber.

Hey Ritchie. Re legacy I'm thinking about wider teams in large organisations (eg SWEng system support teams) and IT mandating library upgrade frequency - switching to new libraries can have widespread impacts and the cost can be high.

I followed the PRs around numpy data sharing but I wasn't sure on the end result. Is the data sharing copy-free (always?)? I wasn't sure what the impact was if Rust and NumPy are utilising the same bytes (or even if that was possible). Can you share some detail?

In the 80s/90s era that these ideas are rooted in, an "object" means both code and data fused together. In this worldview JSON is not a way to send objects despite the name, it's a way to send structs. In the sense Kay means, sending an object implies receiving a thing that implements one or more interfaces, on which you call methods/send messages, and then stuff happens. The data held by the object is encapsulated.

What Java was trying to do with RMI, classloaders, etc was a lot closer to this vision because in that mechanism you could actually receive over the network a full object with both code and data, in which the actual underlying data structure was something you'd never seen before but it didn't matter as long as it implemented an interface you recognized, because the code to process the data came with it. This vision hit a number of practical engineering problems, most obviously security and less obviously the pervasive assumption of flat fast LAN-like networks that the CORBA/RMI/DCOM/etc people kept making.

The web won out over this vision partly because it was simple enough to reimplement. When Tim Berners-Lee didn't have the resources to take it to the full potential (not even having proper inline images) NCSA Mosaic took over, then Netscape took over from them, then Microsoft from Netscape, then Chrome/Safari from Microsoft. The history of the web is basically a history of failed business models up until Google decides to just subsidize the whole thing in order to drive search traffic.

If discussing European and American discourse, that is certainly not the case. In particular, if you replace it with Islam, you will find virtually no agreement. If you replace it with Christianity, it will only be true for how (devout) Christians view it - secular philosophy mostly sees Christianity as a major source of suffering.

Not to mention, neither Islam, Christianity nor Judaism even purport to address human suffering (in this world). The first two do at least promise that suffering will stop after death if you follow their tenets - Judaism doesn't even do that (this is not a criticism of Judaism, just an observation of how it doesn't fit with the quote).

Also, I don't think that Hinduism receives any significant respect from European or American scholars, especially in the many-gods forms. Zoroastrianism, Jainism, Sikhism, and Shinto are too obscure for most to even have an opinion.

So no, I think Buddhism is the only one that really fits in that sentence, if we're talking from a mainstream secular European and American discourse point of view.

Very thought provoking read.

One question I do wonder at times, and is probably applicable here is: "what if I removed all the constraints, what would I do differently and how would things change?". Eg: Suppose nuclear fusion is successful, and you can actually power whole of earth for 800 years with 1 cup of hydrogen. That is, you don't have to worry about energy anymore. How would that change the human behavior both in short and long term? Or to go to a more individual level, "If time wasn't a constraint for me, would I ship it differently?" and so on.

I tried it on the you.com chatbot, which has access to search results of your query. Even though it was already spoiled by receiving a link to this thread in which the correct answer is literally listed, it still managed to come up with nonsense:

> The numbers appear to be arranged in an exponential pattern [1], where each number is approximately 2.3 times larger than the previous number. This pattern can be expressed as: n = 2.3^x, where n is the number and x is the index of the number. So for the numbers you provided, the pattern would be: 925 = 2.3^0 8642 = 2.3^2 37654 = 2.3^3 627418 = 2.3^4

"Adding extra capacity to a network when the moving entities selfishly choose their route can in some cases reduce overall performance. That is because the Nash equilibrium of such a system is not necessarily optimal. The network change induces a new game structure which leads to a (multiplayer) prisoner's dilemma. In a Nash equilibrium, drivers have no incentive to change their routes. While the system is not in a Nash equilibrium, individual drivers are able to improve their respective travel times by changing the routes they take. In the case of Braess's paradox, drivers will continue to switch until they reach Nash equilibrium despite the reduction in overall performance."

Typically the obfuscation is done with a special compiler as it allows easily to add or alter obfuscation layers. This also allows to serve different obfuscation blobs to different clients to slow down reverse-engineering even further.

This is a nice project, but I scrolled this site in hope of finding a download link to the "offline content". I hope this project's goals include creating it.

I wonder how big that offline DB will be. PB range?

Also having potentially hundreds servers trying to download entire Internet archive again and again is a recipe for destroying the very resource we so want to preserve. Internet Archive already runs like crap for the majority of time. Imagine how bad it'll get if everyone starts leeching their whole DB.

So in absence of offline archive data this project should have the following features:
- P2p downloading (based on bitorrent perhaps) to avoid redownload ing from the source what can be fetched from online peers.
- ability to mirror live sites and present them (dated) via P2p network where possible.
- ability to buy a hdd with a physical copy of the data.

There is absolutely no data to confirm this, simply because no matter what equations or variables you throw around, we have no way of knowing the probability of life. We have only earth, and we still don't fully understand how that all worked out. We do not know what (or if!) any filter is present that prevents complex life.

I'm not a farmer but harvest time can be pretty intense. You might only have a narrow window to get certain crops in where the crops are ready and the weather has been right and your onward destination can accept them physically and contractually. So have all the other farms. And that crop represents your yearly income. So you have all this demand in this time window and you have equipment sitting there cause computer says no. Very frustrating.

3. This is targeted at Windows to Linux, but given the speed advantages that it has over rsync couldn’t this be Linux to Linux? That said, I’d be afraid to use this over rsync just from the body of experience and knowledge that exists about rsync.
It's sad how much human effort is spend in creating obfuscation schemes, and then in analyzing them. Or creating proprietary things and then reverse engineering them.

Sometimes I wonder if we could just make everything open. No obfuscation, no captchas, just a neat API for everything. Of course that wouldn't work ceteris paribus, everything else unchanged, due to bad actors, spam, or just competitors who want to take your work. But if you'd change the incentives - make society non-adversarial, non-profit oriented - then all that gating and obfuscation would become unneccessary.
