Native ORC generation from GCC or LLVM or userspace tooling like objtool would be nifty.

FWIW, ORC was specifically designed to be efficient, but it was not designed to be future-proof against complex toolchain changes. Since all the ORC tooling is in the kernel, it can evolve together if needed.

(I was a bit involved in the design — I helped optimize the format to reduce cache misses on lookup.)
You'd also have to consider threat models that include attackers other than Tesla owners trying to get free charges. Eg, Tesla competitors looking to cost them money, people that have twitter beef with Elon, ransom/extortion attacks, teens in it for the lulz, etc.
You're missing the point, it's not a case of "we've identified zirgs as someone we want to punish so let's go through their browser history to find a reason to do it" a tyrannical government hardly needs to go to such lengths as you point out. The nightmare scenario is you get people in power who say "we can make the world a better place if we just eliminate all the people who do X" and they have the digital tools to simply filter all citizens by X and get a nice big list they can hand out to the secret police.

I love this story, and despite only being inside a snowcat twice I often browse for-sale listings and such, even though I have no practical use for one. They are just such neat vehicles.
To be fair I think I've seen a £50 note in the wild perhaps twice or three times. They're really uncommon in practice and most public-facing businesses are loathe to accept them because they're often fake.

I know somebody who set up a cafe having outright rejected cash from the beginning but he was forced to start accepting it because of customer demand.
Interesting outlook this: seek reward, but internal, as opposed to don't seek reward at all.

> Using the rules of food packaging… 958 / 1000 * 16GB = 15.76GB.

The figure was 985g, not 958g, but that's what you seem to have used in your calculation anyway. (Amusingly, when I pulled out bc to test which way you computed it, I immediately made exactly the same typo.)
> what about the rest?

I'm not an introverted misanthrope, I like to combine times of very deep work and reflection and social interaction. Office environments offer plenty of the latter, and very little of the former, so WFH suits a lot of us average people who love to do at least a part of deep intellectual work.

> mental health get's a problem because routine, excercise, experiencing new things and stimulation, and socializing are missing because everybody is staying at home

1. All kinds of mental health issues were shooting up before the pandemic

2. I see the exercise thing repeated by all proponents of working in offices. It completely befuddles me... I go to crossfit 4x a week and golf 3-4x a week, going to the office would only get in the way of this. There are no two ways about this: you have severe imagination, discipline, or motivation problems if the only thing making you move your ass is going to a physical office.

3. I don't know what kind of office you go to "experience new things", but I worked in a large video games company where the culture was dope and we'd play Mario Kart after lunch, and "new things" faded as quickly as anything else. I think this applies to pretty much any office setting.

4. I physically interact with people at crossfit and golf, with my family and friends, and with small business owners (ex: my coffee dude) every day... Again, if your idea of WFH is not talking to anyone for days on end, there may be a conceptualization problem here.

> you are replaceable, transactional human resource

You think the shareholders ever cared whether you go to the office, other than how it affects their EPS? I'll grant that being in an office could make a marginal difference in a round of layoffs if you're particularly ingratiated with some superiors thanks to regular physical interaction, but other than that, we were all just numbers well before WFH.

> I'm really worried about our ability to socialize here.

You should possibly have more faith in the agency of human beings.

> But fun fact: I have no feeling nor connection towards those remote employees.

I employ remote people in my business, from Colombia to Ukraine. I care about them. I empathize if they tell me they have a problem. I otherwise meet customers, potential partners, and all kinds of people through video chat every week. As with anything, the mileage varies: some people leave me indifferent, some people I really connect with, a few irk me.

But if you have no feelings whatsoever towards any people you work with remotely, I don't know what to tell you.

Mount Everest is full of trash and bodies too iirc. There's a couple spots where you pass bodies on the way up that no one will recover.
Social media as support is very effective, but generally it's when the person is right. If a payment gateway flags you as fraudulent, then you post on social media on it, don't be surprised if they also dump evidence of your past history of fraud.

Bigger companies (e.g. Stripe, Google) also have more users and the number of false negatives is also extremely high - if they make something like 0.01% false negatives, that's a lot of mistakes every day.

The bigger companies are likely to have dealt with the far end of malicious users and may have some convoluted SOPs or detection systems in place. That's why you get weird rules like Google Play banning all free games with the word "free" in the title.

But like a CEO of one such company told me when I complained, the official support routes are usually even faster.
Your Brilliant App Idea
I work extensively with non-profits outside the US and I've never come across grants requiring PayPal - in fact, I've never come across grant funding that even uses PayPal for exactly this kind of reason. No grant funder I've ever worked with would touch it with a bargepole, so something sounds fishy about this. And if it sounds fishy to a rando on the internet, you can bet it sounds fishy to a compliance bod at PayPal.

This was my reaction as well. I enjoyed watching Rogan on YouTube.

That’s a totally mistaken understanding of lawyers’ roles. We are highly trusted components of a system for resolving disputes and governing society. That system isn’t for us. It’s for everyone else. Our only job is to ensure that the system operates according to the specification.

It’s not our job to leverage our trusted position in the system to advance our personal view of morality or ethics. Society doesn’t need us to be its conscience. Indeed, that destroys the very system we are supposed to serve.
CET’s shadow stacks, on the other hand, will solve this entire problem, both exactly and extremely efficiently.
I believe there should be a law that if a companies makes money from their users, be it by showing ads, selling data, subs or sales, they should offer mandatory human support. If they don’t, hardcore fines. It will kill ads and data sales (they are hampered by every increasing privacy demands), which suck anyway. If your business cannot survive by treating people like people, then you have no business in my view.

And meta (etc) make more than enough profit to not be this bad. It’s just that view ‘if I don’t pay, I deserve nothing’; that really should only be true if the company makes nothing from the service (aka a charity).
Audio is one of the most real time applications. Most real time applications have much lesser time controls. If you are running a motor the inertia of the whole system means that you really only need to adjust the speed every few seconds. If you are running a stepper motor you need much better time controls on the steps, but that is typically done by a dedicated CPU, leaving the logic of what speed to go to something else.

Note, audio is about latency. Other real time applications need much more CPU power, but they can accept more jitter and latency.
...until someone breaks into LastPass and steals all vaults and you have to hope that your vault used the newer iteration settings. And those are just the cases we hear about because the attackers were careless. Cloud based password managers are simply an unimaginably attractive target for all kinds of threat actors, from individuals to groups all the way to nation states. I'd not be surprised if all the major ones already have backdoors installed - either on purpose with a gag order or even without the company's knowledge. Ironically, a simple text file on a well encrypted USB is probably one of the more secure ways to do this nowadays.
Well we have a thing that passes a Google interview and a bar exam.

You're telling me that because I think this is evidence that it's more then a statistical word generator that I'm biased?

Who's the one that has to concoct a convoluted story to dismiss the previous paragraph? Stop yourself when you find out that's what you're doing when crafting a response to this reply.
There's hi tech options here, which also split the large vessels into many smaller vessels.

The benefits include being able to deliver to smaller ports that are close to the final destination and smaller batches for continual delivery and faster end to end time when something is an expedited.

The large size is partly a factor of fuel costs so cheap future fuels might rebalance away from that design aspect.

Automation is another force that works towards smaller vessels.
I just finished reading “Alone” by Richard Byrd [0]. It’s about a man who wintered alone in Antarctica during the dark night in 1934. I found it very captivating and I think a lot of those on HN would find it interesting; especially those who find this blog interesting.

I did say that this school of thought has roots in Stoicism so what you say does indeed make sense. But I guess there's more to it which can only be found if you follow it. There are some things that just can't be described/told and have to be felt.

We could also get rid of a lot of global logistics by going back to local manufacturing. There's absolutely nothing that dictates that iPhones can be built only in China, or that every grocery store needs to keep strawberries or other agricultural products all year round (which have to be sometimes flown around the world [1]).

The key problem is that CO2 emissions still aren't priced anywhere near to true externality cost, and so no one has incentives for local, low emissions production - instead, everyone goes to the lowest bidder by employment costs (and sometimes, environmental regulations as well).

I haven’t looked at the TOS, but users are likely required to engage in binding arbitration. That’s not necessarily bad though.
This is what happens when compliance rules force sites to have specific policies. Especially when you have more than one set of rule combined.

With that said, a lot of these seem pretty reasonable. The one that I really don't get that keeps appearing is max length though. I get that they may not want to allow you to have a 10MB password but I think a reasonable max like 500 characters would be better. A max length of 8 makes me think they are storing the unhashed password in a VARCHAR.

Also, from a UX perspective some of these rules may be best to only tell the user about if they actually trigger it. Like "most not contain username" is uncommon enough they can probably only show it if it actually happens. Same with "cannot reuse last 4"
The fuller process is described as:

Under Article 258 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the EU (TFEU), if the Member State concerned does not comply with the reasoned opinion within the period laid down by the Commission, the latter may bring the matter before the Court of Justice of the European Union. Additionally, under Article 260(3) TFEU, the Commission can call on the Court of Justice of the EU to impose financial sanctions on the Member States that failed to fulfil their obligation to notify measures transposing a legislative directive
Everything. Dual-channel RAM has essentially double the memory bandwidth of single-channel.
Sure, it will eventually be a requirement for staying current, just like learning how to use Google was crucial two decades ago. Prompt engineering seems even easier to me than Google search ever was. But for the rest of us, I’ve asked ChatGPT to write up a business plan for selling Prompt Engineer Certifications. Those will be all the rage.
This is all-or-nothing security fallacy. Having physical cash makes such transition harder for the country, because the dissidents can stay anonymous easier.
As a society, we allow these particular laborers to be forced to labor, even when it is unsafe for them. We are complicit. It will happen to us too, and we will have nobody to complain to.
Your interpretation is not very different to the journalists:

> The subsequent letters were a bit more enigmatic: could it mean "bears cwærtern" – the Old English word for "prison"? The Latin passage it accompanies describes the imprisonment of the Apostles, so Eadburg might have been drawing a parallel with her own situation.

I agree with the journalist though-- it seems more plausible to me that Eadburg was the doodler. It was very common when I was at school to scratch something like "SW was here" into a table.

Eadburg was here in nun prison.
On Android Firefox the url and title change, but the page content doesn't. I'm not exactly sold on this.

Twice.

The first time around I got unbanned after several days, sending them my selfie etc.

But I don’t receive the code. After several tries the page says „too many requests, wait 24h”.

I obviously have 2FA using authenticator. Got no other email than „you got 30 days to take action”.

The only reason I’m even trying is messenger and a few sad groups that are funny from time to time. Meh.
> Problem has past: Around 2000, manufacturers started using GB (10e9) instead of GiB (2e30) that gives them some margin (7%) for chip defects

It actually started somewhere around 1995 -- with mechanical disk makers all choosing to advertise GB drives using the power of ten instead of the power of two, while maintaining the same labeling on the outer box.

And the reason was not to account for "chip defects" -- it allowed them to ship slightly less capacity, but print on the box a number that appeared larger to those who did not read the 4 point type fine print on the back.
Always wondered if at least one-way resupply was possible (containers airdropped and guided by GPS to land at precise point)?
Sounds like a good way to go broke. Good luck with that!
I've seem that. Thats not news thats commentary, its a big distinction that not enough people are aware of. My sources are pretty broad.

News is original reporting and going to the primary sources of a given story. Commentary sources usually function as secondary or tertiary sources and typically lack the resources to hound government officials, wait outside their office, spend tons of time digging up FOIAs for issues that may or may not pan out, etc.

Figuring out whats happening with a hazardous derailment is not the job of a Tucker or Watters, thats the job of an inquisitive on the ground journalist. Which every news agency employs but very selectively uses.
Well, AZ could perform above Stockfish by using much simpler principles. A lot of tinkering was required to get Stockfish to where it was, and AZ pretty much rediscovered and improved on some of these refined fine-tuned principles, such as board evaluation, opening books or endgames, from its own training. I think that's very impressive.
They do, especially outside of the United States, but there’s also a ton of corporate money spent to promote libertarian ideology so a non-trivial number of voters believe that regulation is inherently harmful.
A random example I realized the other day: your Android phone has a record of exactly what app was active at what time. Even if you delete both the app and whatever documents you were working on, the log of you using it still persists. And that bit is user-accessible in the UI (at least on modern Android) - system logs probably have much more.

And then, the app use information is also independently stored on your Google account. For your convenience. So even if you flush your phone down the toilet and get a new one, the information remains. Even if you wipe your Google account, organizations with enough pull (e.g. governments) could get at it.

And don't get me started on battery level / charging status or what WiFi networks were seen when.

Insanity. How is a system like that remotely acceptable?
I've had troubles socializing and making meaningful connections even before WFH, just something I've been struggling with my whole life. WFH didn't change anything in that regard but at least I don't have to be forced into a weird artificial relationships anymore.

I think people with healthy EQ and socialization skills will be able to find meaningful connections one way or another. Sure, certain types of work cultures are going to die but they are going to be replaced by smth else. For example, people are big into sports and all sorts of outdoors activities where I live and tend to find a lot of friendships through gyms/clubs/hiking groups/competition teams, etc.

If you're like me though, office is just another torture and won't actually fix the problem. (Like decades of forced socialization at school and university didn't fix it for me).
Oh, I definitely don't worry about audit insurance, and operate on the assumption that the IRS will be non-antagonistic towards me if I make a mistake. I want to pay the correct amount in taxes, and the IRS wants me to pay the correct amount in taxes. We're on the same side, and my understanding is that they'll act as if we're on the same side unless there's clear reason to believe otherwise.

What I'm objecting to is the idea that I'm not going to get my taxes wrong using TurboTax. They fucked up badly.

I'm certainly not arguing that the solution is to buy audit insurance from the same company that told me to overpay by several thousand dollars. Every penny I pay to Intuit is a moral failing on my part, and on the part of the legislature that succumbed to their lobbying.
It's not a myth. The distinction here isn't general body odor, which everyone has, but a specific gene (ABCC11, the same that controls for wet or dry earwax). Those with the gene have a chemical in their underarms and groins that bacteria feeds on, producing a stinkier odor.

Also, I've ridden plenty of crowded buses and subways in China and haven't noticed as much body odor as Westerners. So our anecdotes cancel out there.
> So there it is, a complete trifecta of business resources destroyed. Messenger chat history is gone, friends and contacts that I don’t even have phone numbers for are gone, and don’t even have a way to know that I’m alive until I hopefully run into them at work functions this year.

I would expect governments to step in when a flaw like this is detected. It could ruin thousands of lives.
Because someone couldn't be bothered to parameterise their queries, and, as such, is explicitly rejecting characters which are used by some underlying language they're working with (or Windows environment variables, I suppose).

Same reason you'll see dollar signs and quotes often disallowed.
There seem to be two styles of city from scratch: extravagant and monumental, as St. Petersburg, Washington, or Versailles; suburban, homogenous, and bland, as in the Levittowns or whatever Disney called its development in Florida.
