Larry Peterson and Bruce Davie have open-sourced their book - Computer Networks: A Systems Approach (https://github.com/SystemsApproach/book).

I am curious, what is everyone's preferred book on CN? The only one I have read is Computer Networking: A Top-Down Approach by Kurose and Ross. When learning CN for the first time, I like their approach of beginning with the application layer and moving towards the physical layer. Their figures are also quite intuitive.

If you violate the license that allows you to use some code, and the license says that any violation terminates the license, then you are technically stealing the code by using it (basic copyright infringement). So you could be sued for that, in the same way you could be sued for using any code you aren't allowed to use. There would be damages awarded in fines, and maybe even prison time in theory.

As an extreme example, if I wrote a software license that makes you my lifelong slave for using my software, and you use it without becoming my slave, then no judge is going to enforce slavery upon you. But they might fine you for stealing my software.
Let's take the CommonCrawl bot, "CCbot", as an example. There are no images, CSS, or JS files in the CommonCrawl archive. Is the CCbot running Javascript. Is it equivalent to a graphical web browser with all the same features.

GPT-3 was trained on a filtered version of CommonCrawl.

IMO, this is text-only web use. No (fingerprint-friendly) graphical web browser needed. Others may have different opinions. Perhaps I am biased as I use the web this way seven days a week.
As far as I was aware, it had. Everything I've seen in the last 5 years points to that. Is that not the case?

Granted, I didn't go directly to the regulatory site because who can sit down and analyze multiple legalese documents that have thousands of pages with crossreferencing requirements.

Rust is enforcing safety while C++ does not. C++ can be safe if you need it to be. Just use safe constructs.

I'd argue that some people might not find Rust nicer.
In this case, I was referring to personal use (or development) machines. High uptime could indeed mean that someone has neglecting important updates, but it can also mean a stable system where updates do not require reboots.

Step 1 seems to use any branding other than union (association or guild doesn't have the negative connotations)
Yeah that was my impression too. Or are all these open source licenses essentially toilet paper?
They may be forced to pay a fine to the authors / court / customers and release a version without the infringement for example.
Bumping the major version for fun is actually a pain, since configure scripts set upperbounds on major versions to be future-proof, anticipating breaking changes. Now it's just another edge case to deal with, and old versions of curl-dependents to patch.
Speaking as a dude who has solo traveled a bit, the differences between countries are incredibly exaggerated. Especially if you're a tourist going to touristy places. Safety namely being from violent crime. Soft crimes like pickpocketing or getting scammed are common in most of the world.

Literally all of Europe is safe. Caveat being Ukraine.

E/SE Asia is slightly more chaotic for a beginner but safe. You're incredibly unlikely to encounter violent crime. Would skip Burma for obvious reasons. I wouldn't trust this list considering it doesn't include Tokyo as a safe place. Or Singapore.. or South Korea..

Oceania / Micronesia is very tourist oriented. If you're traveling in Australia don't fall for some farm work stay bullshit.

Africa and South America are the most variable, look up by country. Don't get caught in an ethnic conflict...

Solaris tried something like this for a while. While their competitors were releasing versions 4, 5 and 6 of their OS, Solaris was releasing version 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6. This made it look like they were just doing minor updates to Solaris, when they were in fact major new versions. Eventually they gave up and renamed solaris 2.7 to Solaris 7 just to keep up with the version numbering.

To be fair, this goes for a lot of optimizations. A hand-optimized assembly routine might become slower than the compiler-generated one as CPUs and compilers advance, for example.

Do you have the ability to precisely predict supply and demand?

Suppose you do have the ability to precisely predict supply and demand. What would you do if demand is predicted to increase for 5 years and then, decline for the following 5 years? Would you hire people to meet the increased demand? Would you keep them on payroll indefinitely after the 5th year?
This seems to be inference side.

Could you give some examples of what you mean by "He cares mostly about masses and scale"?

I mean, CEOs and other higher-ups at every big company focus on scale far more than on a single user of their products, so I assume you mean something particularly notable concerning Musk that isn't true of, say, Tim Cook, Jeff Bezos, and the like.

And, isn't it a bit narrow-focused to describe this as "harm to one person"? The linked-to piece at https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-64804007 which Musk commented on claims that Twitter

> ... is no longer able to protect users from trolling, state-co-ordinated disinformation and child sexual exploitation, following lay-offs and changes under owner Elon Musk.

> Exclusive academic data plus testimony from Twitter users backs up their allegations, suggesting hate is thriving under Mr Musk's leadership, with trolls emboldened, harassment intensifying and a spike in accounts following misogynistic and abusive profiles.

That's a "mass" of people affected, yes?
I used PagedJS to print many abstract books for conferences — it's worked brilliantly!
Realistic constraints too, since the original UI was designed to work with specific devices at specific screen sizes, not as responsive.
The short answer is no you can't block it because that identifies to the site owner that you are blocking it (as a negative match).

You'd have to mask every informational API with a suitable corrupted alternative that is plausible.
It's quite noticeable actually, and it adds up, it's not just an extra 20ms.

For casual gamers and turn based games maybe it could work, as a niche. For FPS, multiplayer, ARPG, and so on, it's a dealbreaker, anything over 100ms feels too sluggish.

We should be happy we have so much autonomy with our own hardware, I don't want some big cloud company to be able to tell me what I can play and render, unless we want the "you will own nothing and be happy" meme to become reality.
One thing is not clear from the post is how multi-tenancy is handled. Suppose Clickhouse has 10K customers and a data plane cluster has 1K only nodes then it can not cater all the customers in a single cluster, right?

This essentially means they must be running multiple dataplane clusters however they might have just a single control plane.

Thoughts?
Pretty much only 3 things can happen if you violate someone's software copyright and are sued for it.

- You could have to stop violating the person's copyright.

- You could have to pay damages

- You could have to go to jail

Example: Lets say Lindows is a piece of software whose license only lets you distribute it in Louisiana. If you start distributing it in California and get sued you don't have to do something like transport all your clients to Louisiana and distribute the software to them a second time. You just will be prevented from doing any further distribution in California.

Definition of "junior" missing.

A qualified junior is someone who can take a well-specified, narrowly-scoped, low-risk task and execute it in a reasonable, not record-breaking, amount of time. They fundamentally need someone to hold their hand, if only to ensure that the task is truly well-specified and narrowly-scoped.

If someone has any experience, and they're interviewing for junior roles, that should raise eyebrows. It's not an automatic disqualification - shit happens, people find themselves working for abusive bosses, whatever - but having any experience whatsoever should come with it a lessening of hand-holding (and its bureaucratic expressions in workflow).
Being able to learn X doesn't imply they must learn X. Maybe they don't like X and its way of doing things, which is a perfectly valid reason not to. They can be using Y and enjoy what they are doing.
Nope, nawh, no thank you. Not every tool gets to live rent-free in my head.

Correlation, not causation:

> Laboratory studies revealed elevated creatinine kinase level indicative of rhabdomyolysis.

Rhabdomyolysis is associated with a range of medications, drugs and toxins.

Many medications increase the risk of rhabdomyolysis.[12] The most important ones are:[4][9][11]

Statins and fibrates, both used for elevated cholesterol, especially in combination; cerivastatin (Baycol) was withdrawn in 2001 after numerous reports of rhabdomyolysis.[13] Other statins have a small risk of 0.44 cases per 10,000 person-years.[8] Previous chronic kidney disease and hypothyroidism increase the risk of myopathy due to statins. It is also more common in the elderly, those who are severely disabled, and when statins are used in combination with particular other medicines, such as ciclosporin.[13][8]
Antipsychotic medications may cause neuroleptic malignant syndrome, which can cause severe muscle rigidity with rhabdomyolysis and hyperpyrexia
Neuromuscular blocking agents used in anesthesia may result in malignant hyperthermia, also associated with rhabdomyolysis
Medications that cause serotonin syndrome, such as SSRIs
Medications that interfere with potassium levels, such as diuretics

Poisons linked to rhabdomyolysis are heavy metals and venom from insects or snakes.[4] Hemlock may cause rhabdomyolysis, either directly or after eating quail that have fed on it.[4][11] Fungi such as Russula subnigricans and Tricholoma equestre are known to cause rhabdomyolysis.[14] Haff disease is rhabdomyolysis after consuming fish; a toxic cause is suspected but has not been proven.[15]

Drugs of recreational use, including: alcohol, amphetamine, cocaine, heroin, ketamine and MDMA (ecstasy)[4][11]

It also breaks page zoom. The user's preferred zoom level for a domain isn't preserved between new-tab page loads, but resets itself every time.

(I'm guessing it was too much implementation work to separate out this feature: to preserve normal, expected UI behavior client-side, while presenting a fake pagezoom value to scripts. That would degrade only a handful of (poorly-designed, script-layout) websites, rather than the whole accessible browser experience).
I'll put just one tip here: a 'maybe' is a 'no'.

In my experience most bad hires that don't work out in the end were a 'strong maybe' and for whatever reason I convinced myself to still go ahead. One common reason is hiring fatigue, when you interviewed a lot of people and just want to close the position.

If it's a 'maybe', identify why it's a 'maybe', and schedule an additional round where you get signal on those specific topics. If at the end it's still a 'maybe', then it's a 'no'. Doing an additional round may suck, but it's less of a suck (for both sides) than firing the person after they left their previous job, started working, completed onboarding, and it's their last week of probation in your team.

Good luck!

I also agree with this. Have to use all three OSes and Apple is a disaster. KDE Plasma on Linux is years ahead and only getting better, while the closed source OSes are just getting worse. Really too bad that KDE and Linux communities don't have the same marketing powers.

> Yeah what a lot of people don't understand is that if there was a garbage collected version of Rust that kept the same guarantees around mutable data, with the same good type system, good ecosystem, and good tooling, I'd still write a lot of it. Those benefits are way more important to me than the borrow checker.
Basically, Rust fulfills the dream of a functional language with pragmatic semantics, syntax, and developer experience. That's why I write it.

You might want to take a look at F#.
It spreads risk throughout the system. In a maximally-resilient scenario, everyone would have a small deposit at every possible bank -- then when any bank fails, it's "no big deal", and you won't panic and withdraw your money from the rest. This is similar -- any particular failure is going to be for half (or less!) of your money, instead of all of it, reducing the urgency and spreading out the risk.
You are easily tracked without JS. It is much easier than tracking a default settings browser.
Aside from a few skids spamming for fun, the dominant forms of online spam by far are (1) content mills farming impressions for AdSense $$$; (2) user-generated content on third party platforms pushing something for economic or, to a lesser extent, political gain, whether it's SEO backlinks, fake product reviews, crypto shilling, or whatever.

(1) getting better is bad because you can enter the two words into Bing Chat or whatever to generate the same shit yourself, so you won't need them anyway, they only get in the way when you want to look for actual human-generated/curated content.

(2) getting better is obviously bad. Imagine most user-generated content turning into Quora-style ads or Amazon fake reviews, except with eloquence and bullshit knobs turned to 120%. Everything you read is coherent, convincing prose, you just don't know whether they're 100% false.

You cannot solve a puzzle by picking out one piece. You solve a puzzle by looking at all the pieces and not stylising yourself as the moral hero and assuming that everyone else will follow. That is short-sighted thinking.

A per capita figure may play a role in politics in negotiations, but it is not relevant for solving the problem.

It is like accusing a Norwegian living in a fjord of wasting water. For example, it is completely irrelevant how high the per capita consumption of an Icelander is. Or a Greenlander. Because it doesn't solve the problem.

Yes, the US has a higher consumption. But it's just 334 million inhabitants vs 1,440 million in China (which still puts America in the top five, but far behind China).

If you really want to solve the problem then you need to develop a practical solution for China.

But let me ask you a question: Let's imagine that everything is suddenly perfect in your country. The economy has suffered brutally because of all the changes, but you are now the world leader in CO2 per capita consumption. What do you think happens then?
>> When you ask yourself a question, that's recursion (...)

I don't know if any of that makes sense. I think you're misapplying some handy
metaphors: you're anthropomorphising a computer and mechanomorphising a human.
I have "localchost"? What, do I also have Perl scripts? Now I'm starting to
feel like a character in a P. K. Dick story.

But all this doesn't matter because we're not talking about a person, asking
questions of themself. We're talking about someone doing things with a
computer. And we know exactly what "recursion" means in the context of a
computer.

On a computer, then, if anyone wants to show "recursion" in LLMs, they better
be able to show how to implement a push-down stack with the bot's conversation
window. Then they can show how to calculate a factorial recursively, and how
their calculation behaves differently when it's computed in a tail-recursive
manner, and when it is not.

Yeah, I can see what the author doing, and it's not recursion. But I'm trying
to be kind so I won't say what it is.
CF blocks you hard simply for enabling "do not track" in settings. The discussion about how awful they are needs to be had.
Target and the model that found the pregnant girl (bad counter argument here: https://medium.com/@colin.fraser/target-didnt-figure-out-a-t...

There are three options:

1. Prevent/Stop it: This ship sailed long ago. Not to be grim about it but pandoras box got opened.

2. Fight it: Tool up, change your print, your behavior, your place. Build focused VM's that you use per topic. Simply do a WHOLE lot less. In the grand scheme, its a lot of work for low return. Note: there are exceptions.

3. Increase Noise: The whole point of most data collection is to sell more to you. Because most people are sheep, a fairly simple model can be surprisingly accurate (over targeting is an issue). Don't be a sheep, diversify, make more noise in the system, search out side your comfort zone and change it up often.
> Rust was intended for the layer of the stack where these things do matter.

Good point. If those things don't matter, then maybe you are better off using another language.
Ads & tracker-forward?
So much of coding is a simple SQL -> HTML string but its mind-blowing how far abstracted we are from this today. Give some credit to PHP for simplicity here.

Something I noticed too that when there is simplicity, there is so many abstracted layers beneath that makes things slow, impossible to debug, and god help you if you if it doesn't do what you need. Things like React + Next.js. If you tried to follow the actual stack traces of what is going on underneath you would die.
"break the law" means nothing when you're a large corporation that makes more money from breaking it than you spend on fines.

Tech companies routinely get fined for what may seem like massive amounts to us.

https://www.businessinsider.com/the-7-biggest-fines-the-eu-h...

If "breaking the law" meant something they would try to avoid doing it so often.

Microsoft in the 90s was recognized guilty of abusing their monopoly. What were the consequences? nothing. This sort of thing used to mean something, see: Standard Oil v United States. But the current world is a world that belongs to megacorporations.

Tracking people against their will is a drop in the ocean of what corporations get away with.

This, in many ways, is like a billionaire getting a ticket that doesn't amount to more than the hundreds of dollars for bad parking. The billionaire doesn't care.

Law only has meaning when the punishment is coercive.
This is what Bing already does, and probably chatGPT when it generates some long text and then finally decides to remove it showing a banner of error occurred. This is trivial to do, I mean you can add this to Alpaca easily.
the very idea of fixing anything with taxes is wrong
primary role of land is to not have any civilized role, just supporting nature and thanks to nature humans (as they are naturally part of it),

land under cities and any density populated areas is area of human civilization, but usually not humane civilization,
people tend to fix human artificially created problems with artificially created solutions usually creating new problems later

land shouldn't be hoarded
if every national has his own piece of it guaranteed (only inheritable) then there is no legitimisation for hoarding more

but the piece should be big enough to let person feed himself from it

then the rest can be city land for lending by nation to companies
and all the rest is the shared coowned land like forests for mushroom collecting, limited hunting or fishing

If no corporation or foreigner can hoard your land you fixed most of the problem already

we decide our health and lifespan with everyday choices at shop and choosing place of living, working and it's water, air and soil quality

ofc some of us get born with a better starting point but that's what maintaining common standards is for

saving in inflative currency is irrational itself

retirement system is a lottery game to keep people focused on working and paying taxes only, schooling to make obedient workers and alimentary system is a divorce maker to break society into individual atoms

it's to block any need to group spontaneously, plan own future yourself, organise organically and oppose actual system

people use their things best for themselves never for societal benefit especially that there is no one universal definition of societal benefit

if every person has own idea about it it means you would give big share to some individual(s) who would build their idea of societal benefit that could contradict majority's sense of their benefit and common benefit

btw if you make it uncommon it by definition becomes non common

but I still like your sense of need of meritocracy and helping those more capable - still most important part lacking here is keeping them bound with bottom of pyramid they come from and serve, sharing fruits if their skills so the bottom would proliferate yielding new exceptional units lifting everything up continuously.
