As much as this may seem like merely an interesting dive into the subject of wear and tear, the broader world of bicycle geometry and design is fascinating. I used to race downhill and the tire path of the bike's design combined with how that path changes as the rig goes through its suspension travel is integral to feeling stable/planted. When you see some of the patents regarding modern bike design, especially in the world of suspension linkage, its mind boggling how much depth is put into these machines. All so I can go fast down a hill, fall on my ass, and get covered in mud.
Whole new vistas open up to possible retaliation for piracy. Imagine how a bootlegged AI could have been set up to not just steal your info but manipulate you into ruining your life as revenge for bootlegging it...
It's also more resource efficient, especially for non-production or non-critical workloads. VMs only come in discrete configurations and many times even the smallest one is too big, wasting a lot of resource. When you run thousands of instances, thanks to the magic of microservices, the costs add up.
I'm not suggesting that it is, but this sounds much more like a firing than a layoff. Pretty shitty way to do a layoff. This is the way you remove a potential problem, i.e., play it cool until the doors are locked, then full lock-out. That's very different from "Hey man sorry, but it's layoff season, as you know, so we're gonna pay you out for the next 4 weeks and you can keep your coursera subscription."
Good questions. I couldn't find much difference. Maybe it's that they can host it for you.
Why would they expect anyone to build on top of their new social networking protocol?

It is owned and will be driven by a private company and it’s desire for profitability, ActivityPub is an open standard that has been around for ~5 years and battle tested and already in use across different platforms.
The more batteries you add the more the cost you add. You also need a bigger enclosure. Someone to put it together, etc. Low power mode for the devices works to a point. But eventually the battery just gives out (age or usage). Which means you have to have someone go out and touch the thing. You need more power to go further with the radio so more batteries. The dudes working the docks probably are not allowed to do it. So you have to send a team out there to fix them up. Oh and that device is 'dead' so good luck finding it in the 20k+ containers in the current yard. You can prevent that to a point with scheduled maintenance. But again you are now pull containers out of service waiting for 'the guy' and your guy waiting for him to show up too, and that is costing money and time.

Malicious abuse is usually found fairly quickly in that industry and usually obvious it is happening. It is accidental and environmental that are the bigger problems. The more you harden for the environment the higher the cost on build, install, and replacement.

There are several key factors that go into making 10,000 of something. I can make 1-2 wickedly hardened items as prototypes. But make 10k of them takes a different set of skills and cost factors. Then you have to pay guys decent rates to go out and install/maintain them. Remember the guys running these companies are very cost sensitive. You can literally wipe out their whole margin on one container if you cost too much.

Endpoint tracking/scanning which they use the majority of the time is shockingly effective. Not perfect but very effective. Tracking the vehicle the item is on is usually more cost effective. For some loads it makes sense to track it that sensitively but most of the time it does not matter. Our cost budget for just materials (no manufacture) was 20-50 dollars a unit. We could not get anywhere near that. Just the radio was most of the budget let alone the cables, board, ics and case and battery. So the project was shelved. There are companies out there that make these sorts of things. But their costs are usually 500-3000 per unit plus install/ongoing costs.
Dense is a subjective term, and solar is without a doubt a dense enough energy source.

Compare the amount of land needed to power the US with solar to the amount we use to brew a small amount of ethanol as a minor energy sourced. We can completely power the US with a fraction of the land that we currently use as a subsidy for corn farmers, who grow more corn than we can eat.
It is a fork of this:

https://people.cs.ksu.edu/~danielwang/BAS/klein-2014-microke...

This is not the kernel that runs on the host CPU. It is the one that handles keys in the security coprocessor. I don’t know of many hacks of that, in practice. There was one where you could guess the pin, and use a timing attack to power down the chip before it persisted the “bad guess” count, which let people brute force pins (with special hardware).

It’s worth noting that the kernel Apple ships is a fork of L4; no idea if they’ve introduced bugs since the paper was written.
Yup, and the fascinating part was, that the US actually admitted doing that (well.. declassified some documents regarding this, 60 years after the fact).

So yeah... who know what they're denying now, and what we'll find out in 60 years
Everyone is subject to slurs. That’s not what I’m referencing.

I’m talking about the use of language where you use the less-dominant group as a negative reference point. For example “retarded”. Or “fag”. You apply those terms to people who are neither as a way of disparaging them.
Adding a few because what I think is the gnarliest and others think may vary.

One was a quirky GBIC on an old Foundry router that would corrupt specific bit patterns and more specifically would cause downloads of Microsoft Word .doc files to get corrupted, specifically from an old Xerox docushare server. It took a while to convince the network team to replace the GIBC. Around the year 2000

Another was a bad NIC. The firmware went offline so to speak and started looping/spraying pieces of VLAN packets at the network at a rate I did not know was even possible. That single NIC took a massive router offline.

Another was a coding bug in an Ericsson mainframe that required me to telnet in from my Nokia 9000 and reload the mainframe, taking northern California off their cell phones for ~40 minutes. late 90's

There was a CIFS bug in RHEL4 that would kernel panic under certain conditions when the NetApp export was in mixed mode meaning the export supported both NFS and CIFS. Emailed the kernel dev and he fixed it when he got home from bicycling with his kids.

Another was a Solaris 8 server in California having slow transfer rates to England. It was a GRE tunnel bug. I had to convince the network team to encapsulate my traffic into a VPN inside that GRE tunnel. They were convinced it would go slower. Went from ~80kbps to 43Mbps and only hit that limit because the England side was a DS3.

Many other fun ones were all the times someone would come up with the idea to shim a proxy usually a web server between services and would not factor in SO/http keep-alives or lack thereof and thusly would not factor in source port depletion, TCP timeouts, etc... Those are more people issues than technical issues.

I could probably keep going for a few hundred pages.
Interesting, I wonder how heavily censored it will be considering it's run by a regime of people formerly attached to old Twitter. My guess is "very to almost completely."
How to print-debug Python comprehensions
I fully agree with the description.

What worries me, though, is that the features that make Python quite good at prototyping make it rather bad at auditing for safety and security. And we live in a world in which production code is prototyping code, which means that Python code that should have remained a quick experiment – and more often than not, written by people who are not that good at Python or don't care about code quality – ends up powering safety/security-critical infrastructures. Cue in the thousands of developer-hours debugging or attempting to scale code that is hostile to the task.

I would claim that the same applies to JavaScript/Node, btw.
Exactly, like all the external influence that keep the mullahs afloat :)
With India also discovering a very large amount of lithium reserves very recently, lithium might end up being abundant and accelerate the EV transition even faster.

I think it's 100% clear that Org could exist in several other places if there was a will to implement it. My first target would probably be Obsidian.
I don't mind developers writing the Gherkhin as long as the SMEs can read and sign off on the Gherkhin. They won't read a unit test for sure.
The author asked why you’d choose this over Mastodon - the answer is that the AT protocol is designed to be a much better solve for decentralized social media that avoids the scalability and centralization problems of mastodon. That’s the entire point, it’s weird you would have access to this without understanding the entire motive for its existence.

Try dealing with your corporate security team, who's detecting out of date Python versions.

For the most part these update without much hassle, but now you've "broken" your researcher's code. It takes them a while to fix this, and then the security guys find out that Python packages also need updated...
Sure but its ride sharing with random strangers.

Uber says the person's name, has their phone number, their car with make & model, license plate number, etc. If something happens there is a way to track down who / what / where / when.

Plus the riders also have a score. You know each other, sort of. Just like the drivers there is an account, a name, a phone number.

With hitching neither side has any idea what they're getting. Probably alright, probably not too weird -- but you have no way of knowing.
I think the creator of The Sims nailed this one x)
It also helped in that past that if a country stopped doing whatever it was that drew US sanctions the US would lift those sanctions.

Take Iran. The US and several others sanctioned them over trying to develop nuclear weapons. Iran stopped the weapons program, agreed to inspections to verify compliance, and the sanctions were lifted.

Then the US put back sanctions for domestic political reasons, and so now when Iran does something the US does not like (such as supplying Russia with weapons to use against Ukraine), the US doesn't really have a way to deal with that because (1) they've already got Iran nearly maximally sanctioned, and (2) even if they could find something else to sanction Iran over there is no reason for Iran to believe that changing their behavior would lead to removal of that sanction.

The difference is time of development and flexibility of tge emacs result using the same universal plain text interface you use in emacs every day for me.
Wow, I did not realize they were in that deep. It is probably good they pulled the plug on this. Better now than later. People need to realize this is messing with emotions in an unknown way.
Azure is generally a pretty terrible cloud (poor UX, very slow for anything, multiple highly critical cross-tenant security issues, etc.) far behind the market leader, AWS, so they have to compensate with pricing (same reason why Oracle Cloud is so reasonably price, they're already so far behind their usual pricing wouldn't make any sense).
Is Spacemacs still in active development?
> Both you, I and the other person replying to your comment were running a bespoke system like this in 2014. That's just 3 people semi-randomly meeting in a thread. If you imagine how much engineering work was saved by Kubernetes since then it's mind boggling.

Not if you're one running the k8s cluster. K8S benefits are wholly on dev deploying apps side, not ops.

Hell, in early versions k8s "automation" to build the cluster was so bad it made clusters that would self-destruct after a year, because there was no proper cert management built in. Even now you have huge amounts of code dedicated purely to "care and feeding" of k8s cluster. Sure, you can deploy one with one command, but if something goes wrong or something needs to be debugged you're jumping into a swamp.

We already had CM-automated CA so implementing K8S wasn't really a problem for us (just a bunch of learning) but it absolutely overcomplicates everything involved because vast majority of apps just isn't big enough to reap the benefits.

Especially when you need to herd a bunch of daemons just to have proper monitoring or logging inside it. Or how many apps now need a "sidecar" just to get some stats in it and you have 20 different apps that only job is "fetch some stats from app that doesn't support <current monitoring fad> and push it into <current monitoring fad>"
So do I understand correctly — those that tell don’t know, and those that know don’t tell?

I had to look up the legality of downloading torrents of copyrighted IP - and let me just say, don’t do it.
I'd like to see this ported to TI graphing calculators
Most people don't care about that as a qualification.
I don't think this is true: Other Python runtimes and compilers (e.g. Nuitka) won't magically speed up your code to the level of C++.

Python is primarily slowed down because of the fact that each attribute and method access results in multiple CALL instructions since it's dictionaries and magic methods all the way down.
Large scale protests like this are frequently externally influenced. I really wouldn't be surprised if in 50 years time when top secret documents are released to archives we don't find that these protests are being financially supported or organised by USA/Israel/the west.

Interoperability can break security properties though. If I send you an iMessage, I can be confident that someone that steals your phone (while it is locked) cannot read that message (ignoring things like state-sponsored attacks).

Sure, but that's because there was a good library available, little to do with Python vs C++.

If there was an equally good C++ image library available then it would have been equally simple in C++.

Of course the thing is that, in general, there may well NOT have been such a C++ library, and this is what makes languages such as Java and Python popular - because of the breadth of libraries available.

For C++ image manipulation I've found libvips to be decent, but the point still stands that for a given problem there may not be decent libraries available.
Emacs tutorial is quite good, IMO. It is interactive and built into Emacs itself.
I don't think that was the one. I'm fairly sure it was based in the UK.

I found this

But that isn't it either.
I'm highly suspicious of these kind of posts. They remind me of the old "Ask Alice" in the magazines, with all kinds of wild and outlandish questions to which there was always a "perfect" response.

I.e. I think they are made up situations for karma.
Maybe this is an intentional leak to damage OpenAI.

A supposedly better model by some accounts that strikes right at the heart of their business plan of selling access for $250k/year. One month of access to their service could buy a machine capable of running this leaked model.

Facebook nerfs a potential upstart competitor to keep current big-tech cartel stable.

Maybe this is a bit conspiratorial, but we live in the age big-tech and big-conspiracy.
Python is really nice.

Easy to learn yet powerful.
Easy to read yet very concise.
Anytime you need something complicated, it's a pip and an import away.

Couple of downsides though:
- slow
- does not handle multiprocessing nicely.

If the python team ever manages to fixes these two (not easy or it would have happened a while ago) to bring it to - say - the level of Go, Python would be the absolute killer language.
OT but if your French is decent and in a few years you get tired of city life maybe keep the French countryside in sight, outside of Paris it's a different country.
Not a direct rebuttal.. but there are several things that need to come together for this to work.

1. The leadership team should trust each other's data. Over a period of time, that has not been true.
2. The group reviewing the data depends on everyone being there long enough to understand and get the feel. That is also hard to achieve and imho, is no longer true.
3. The metrics tend to ignore the cost to the workers. After all, everything looks like numbers and charts.

For me, WBR is a mechanism, but Amazon's focus on just the metrics has hurt its workers, employees, sellers and partners a lot.
Interesting, I quite like the idea of using the benefits of blockchain like architectures on a way more lightweight foundation like git repos.
This architecture uses git remotes as identities, right?
Wouldn't a public-key based infrastructure allow a broader set of uses. I'm specifically thinking of sneaker-net like deployments, or maybe setup in which no reliable DNS exists.
That is interesting. I went in the other direction :)

I am tired of having to refactor shiny new things churned out at 10x the speed and that keep breaking in production. These days, if given a choice, I prefer writing them in Rust code, spending more time writing and less time refactoring everything as soon as it breaks or needs to scale.
I've tried this but compared to ChatGPT... let's just say it's in a different league.

The source code release wasn't actually delayed. It was promised by June 2019, and it was released by June.

I did an early release of the Patreon-only compiler without sources, and that was a mistake.

I work on Ads latency at Google. If we remove our cache, our p95 will definitely suffer. We have experiments to confirm this.

In fact, one of the key projects that is being worked on is to improve caching to reduce latency both at median and at tail.
How is the workaround structured?
While the Matty's inventions may seem silly and frivolous, they signal something huge. He prototyped 350 physical inventions in 3 years. Thats roughly 3 days per item.

When compared to how hard this was a decade ago, the cost to build physical prototypes has effectively fallen to 0. This is both in terms of the money and time. I really believe we'll see a renaissance of physical goods in the next decade.

Previously you'd need to find a factory and contract with them to manufacture a minimum number of items. It would cost several thousand dollars at least and take weeks if not months to get your product.

Once you have the physical item in your hand, you can start the testing process which feeds into the next iteration cycle.
How does it fall apart for non-blocking I/O?

Also splice supports offsets (to me your comment implied it doesn't).
I would also add ztree-diff to that list.
1000000 square meters is one square kilometer, not one thousand. It's also less than half the acreage used by my local nuclear power plant.
Have you mastered 9 finger touch-typing?
Not sure what made you think I was talking about how the US felt about it. They obviously loved it very much. As luck would have it, the US became net exporter just a few years after the conquest
"A lot" might be anecdotal, but my observations of heteros doesn't really seem like the number of a lot. Maybe more than zero, because in an ideal world it would be zero.

There is no conversation, however, on the physical violence regularly suffered by men. Or the tells/behaviours that we adopt to avoid such things happening when we can. Men are the victims of the most crime, but because of a small subset of us we are also the perpetrators of most crime. Everyone focuses on the latter, ignoring the former.

Some of my coworkers violently agree, but at least 20-30% get annoyed when autoupdate removes/ changes some feature (pane splitting recently I think) and they have to adapt their workflow.
