A higher powered SoC might help make it lag-free... But the real solution is simply to put in the requirements that 90% of taps must be fully responded to within 100ms. Animations must complete within 350ms and be 60 fps. Dragging must have a glass to glass latency of under 50 ms. Booting from door open to usable must be done in 5000 ms.

While we're there, lets put in the requirement that a random joe from the street, with no training, when given the UI and asked to complete a task (eg. Play me some coldplay, turn on the window defroster, pair a bluetooth phone, get directions to the nearest gas station), must be able to figure it out within 20 seconds and 6 taps on average.

>A work of art is never finished, only abandoned.—Paul Valéry
There is some embellishment in that statement, but people coming from Pascal/Oberon would likely feel much more comfortable using Go, than other C family languages. This would also include Vlang, and to an extent, Odin as well. These two have both been heavily influenced by Go and Pascal.
I'm sort of offended by this because I do actually think about gift cards when I give them. I deeply consider the value and likelihood that the recipient will patronize the business and appreciate the card. If I do not know their preferences, then I will instead obtain a Visa gift card that spends anywhere, like cash.

I don't think it's a crime to give a gas-station card to someone who drives a lot, or a popular restaurant to someone who enjoys eating out, or a Google Play card to someone who owns an Android phone.
Doesn't help that "Lager" is not used as much for beer in Germany, at least in the regions I know.

Such beer is instead often classified as "Untergärig", from "untergärige Hefe" => "bottom-fermenting yeast"
I am sorry but I have to inform you that you are a forced assumption.
E2EE telemetry ;)
This is the third or fourth time I've heard this sentiment lately and I don't understand it. Why would the ability to sideload apps impact the ability of Apple to curate app quality in their app store?

Given that I can sideload Android apps, why can I still download Instagram from the Play store?
> Well, in fairness web-based applications (including Electron ones running locally) break most of the inspectability benefits that came before, at least on the Windows platform.

eg. I used to be able to programmatically grab hWnd's (like Spy++ does), and manipulate the forms of an app. Apps used to show up as one (or two) simple processes with rich instrumentation metrics in tools like Resource Monitor.

I disagree pretty hard with this sentiment. Yes, it's harder to programmatically interact with some of the browser features from outside of the browser. Programmatic interaction with basically any application that isn't yours is getting harder across every operating system as security becomes more important.

That doesn't really change that introspection of the source that makes up a displayed site was easy and approachable. I can look at the css/html/js. Further, all of those resources are contained in files intended to be opened and looked at by humans (they're human readable text).

This is my biggest issue with WASM. You're literally back at reading assembly again. And while that's possible, and there is tooling that can help - it's just not the same as being able to right-click on something, alter a couple of attributes in human readable words, hit enter and see that change.
Did anyone ever make a claim that master —> main was going to have a significant, direct impact on the fight against racism? Obviously, it's a step, but it seemed like an entirely positive thing to me (shorter, more semantic) with essentially zero downside.
>The US would drag all of the rest of the civilised world to war with it, as they kinda did with the proxy war of Ukraine.

Many countries were more than willing to be involved and didn't need any dragging at all, e.g. the Baltics, Poland and the UK who are by now sick of all the poisonings on their territory the KGB has been blatantly carrying out over the years.
Nice! Is there a github repo?
AMD has notably cornered the console market with the Xbox One and Series X|S, PS4 and PS5. With the Steam Deck and now the Asus ROG Ally, they're starting to get themselves a position in the handheld market too.
> Almost everything else is secondary.

For any app more complex than a demo "todolist", handling "business logic" is - by far - the most important. Hundreds of widgets that don't do anything, or do it wrong and buggy, are worthless.

"handling business logic" is difficult and, ironically, perpendicular to many frameworks (as in: frameworks make dev/testing/evolving/refactoring of business-logic harder, not easier). A perfect example was (is? IDK) Visual Basic: tons of widgets, a neat builder, but terrible in managing even simple state and handling business-logic. Or React, which is a perfect framework (and paradigm/architecture) for small, or flat apps, but terrible for complex or convoluted apps.

What I see in Rust, is a focus on the stuff beyond mere "providing lots of stuff that can be drawn to screen": how to manage state, react to changes, manage events etc. Which is, the way I see it, why there also are so many frameworks emerging: what architecture and paradigms work best, very much depends on your use-case.
If a man doesn't find modern machinery beautiful and inspiring then he really doesn't understand human condition for the most of human history. These machines brought us from poverty and misery unimaginable today.
> Crime in America is literally defined to be when colored people do it, so obviously.

I hope your comment is a joke, or a deliberate trolling attempt.
A brown person blowing up something as retaliation for US foreign policy (and typically funded and organised by some other state) is definitely different from an alienated boy who shoots up a school. Therefore there should be different categorisations.

I don't even know why I am replying, your reasoning is clearly blinded by rage
Also, the route forward the greens wanted were green energies - solar, wind, biomass. This was blocked as much as possible by the last coalition of CDU and SPD, including a complete construction stop of new wind energy in Bavaria (caused by the CSU, a fundamentalist conservative sister of the CDU)
SWEs in those camps are mostly "just following orders" I've heard.
Those MP5's they (some German cops) carry are loaded.

This isn't entirely make sense to me, I thought AMD was very far behind on GPGPU. Do these supercomputer and data center projects use things like ROCm and OpenCL, and solve the software issues on their side? Does AMD compete on price there?
> it is a regulatory requirement to disclose the fact that you are collecting data

Not if the data isn't PII, no. Not in any way shape or form.

> The few exceptions that exist are only applicable in cases where there is no potentially identifiable data collected at all

The whole point of collecting "anonymous usage data" (which is what telemetry usually does) is that it shouldn't be possible to attribute to a physical person, and thus not be PII. As an extreme example, you could take the most typical form of telemetry: a feature usage count. When a feature is used, the telemetry collects a (+1) for that feature. The only long term stored data is the total count N for each feature across the entire user base. Of course there is no PII stored.

> which is obviously not the case here.

Why do you say that it's "obviously" not the case, when there is no indication about what data it is, other than the Dropbox representative saying precisely that there is no PII collected so the GDPR isn't relevant? There may be PII (in which case they are both at fault for not disclosing, and complete asshats for lying in the support forum). But it would be a pretty uninteresting discussion once one assumes that...

Obligatory "I'm not a lawyer either but I've implemented telemetry in software and had those implementations thuroughly analyzed by lawyers a couple of times"
Language barrier in both cases. Since moving to Berlin I've picked up tourist-grade Spanish — without looking at Google Translate, "Hola, una mesa para dos personas, por favor. Un hamburgar vegetario y un café. Graciás." — but not enough to function outside a holiday.

If I even know a single word of Swedish that's not a loan-word, I'll be surprised.
I was thinking about this the other day. One thing I wondered—are there any examples of “regressions” that occurred in human history because the change in culture leaned too progressive? And by progressive/conservative, I mean in the sense of the directionality of culture, not necessarily their modern political connotations.

For example, Prohibition was a “conservative” movement because alcohol was originally permitted and then became disallowed. Later, it was restored. What is an example of something that was previously disallowed, became allowed and widely acceptable for a period of time, and then became disallowed again such that it is still disallowed or considered immoral today?
Wouldn't you need pipes anyway for regular plumbing? That would have lead to issues anyway, right? Also I doubt somewhat the tech was new 15 years ago, it's quite common in germany to use district heating, especially if there's a source nearby you can use or it's a bigger city. So I am pretty sure district heating is very old-tech, just geothermal source is new. German wikipedia says:

> About 9 % of the total heat demand in Germany is covered by heat grids today and 14 % of the demand for residential buildings.
I don't have a problem with Rust syntax. Actually I can't imagine any developer with more than a year or two's experience has much trouble with any language syntax (unless it's something truly weird like APL). After a few days use you barely notice surface details anyway - it's just one possible representation of an AST.

My problem with using Rust is the way its complexity creeps into everything. There are large numbers of stdlib utility traits whose idiomatic use you have to remember to read almost any real world code. There's hardly a Rust library in common use that isn't a huge sprawling mass of over abstracted generics and macros. Even command line parsing is made to be a vastly complex endeavour. There are admittedly sugary niceties (eg derive attributes) that can make use of many of these libraries tractable for easy cases. But overall any substantial Rust program makes cognitive and memory demands on the programmer far in excess of what most languages require for the equivalent in my experience.
Nearly everything automotive now has a GPU. When you have a GPU, even a very low power one, graphics get far easier. simple operations like "fade from this screen into that screen at 60 fps" become easy. They would be impossible with CPU graphics, simply because a slow CPU can't update every pixel on the screen at 60 fps anyway.

Despite that, automotive graphics ramain laggy because they normally build something barely gpu accelerated using java or QT or something else laggy by nature...
IPv6 is less complex than IPv4.

So you are a network engineer, but you just don’t want to move with the times?
I don't think OP is wrong, but it more of a rambling comment than an article.

To understand what's going on, we need equivalent of table of 5G spec features, with columns for:

* what use case the feature enables for users
* how widely the feature is implemented, * what extra cost it would could incur to include the feature in a device or connection.

The article says that "extra speed is wasted" but also says that it "enables watching video" (and I presume sending video too).

That's a huge win, isn't it?

OP also forgot to mention, in the complaint about 8G, that we already have Fake G in "4G LTE" which isn't full 4G.

Wouldn’t a data science curriculum be more multi-disciplinary than a ‘statistics’ course?

Visualization, scripting, data collection, models, simulation. EDx had a great course by Guttag and Grimson. Add to this Scott E Page’s Model Thinking. Add EDx Data Analytics and Learning From UT Arlington. And some Tufte.

I say these because i work in the accounting field and brought scripting to my firm from my own self-study. It’s been a super power for me, and solved several problems which my colleagues had tackled using Excel alone.

I’ve also studied statistics, but found it less generally useful.

I also think the Dahl books shouldn't have been altered, but everything I've read about that suggests it was the publisher's decision, not government-mandated censorship. The issue here is more about authors' right and IP ownership.

The Social Media War (from Latin bellum sociale mediorum, properly 'war of the allies of the middle'), also called the Labor War or the Temporary War, was fought from 2023 AD to 2027 AD between the Alphabet Company and several of its autonomous allies (contractors) in America. The contractors wanted Google citizenship, not only for the status and influence that came with it, but also for the right to participate in Google promotions and forming policies. They believed that they should be treated equally to the Googlers, given that they had formed cultural and linguistic connections with the Google corporation, and had been their loyal allies for over two decades. The Googlers strongly opposed their demands, and refused to grant them citizenship, thus leaving the contractors with fewer rights and privileges.

The situation escalated in 2024 AD, leading to the outbreak of a devastating conflict, in which many of the contractors staged a two-year revolt against Google. In order to end the conflict, and to avoid future conflict of the same kind, Google decreed several laws by which the contractors who remained loyal or surrendered to the company would be awarded full employee status. By 2027 AD, Google's victory was complete, and full employee status had been extended to all of its contractors.

The Social Media War led to a complete integration of the contractors into Google. The contractors quickly integrated themselves into the company after gaining full employee status. Their own professional identities became merged with that of Google, and the term "Google employee" came to refer to all contractors.
I've looked into this abandoned gcc port a while ago, and try to resurrect it, esp. after they added modula2. Didn't get far.

It produces of course far better code than free pascal/lazarus. It could even beat all other gcc backends. As you see in some gcc benchmarks, the modula2 part produces the smallest and fastest code of all backends, esp. C++ and C.

Which would be nice for safer system languages, since we have only ADA/Spark. And ADA is lost in commercial/military hell, even with Spark.

But we would really need a Concurrent Pascal or Oberon dialect, similar to Go.
Nowadays I would just add dialects on top of modula2, like the different C standards.

That assumes there's intrinsic value in preserving history. One of my favorite works of art is Dropping a Han Dynasty Urn by Ai Weiwei. To me it symbolizes breaking with the past and not being held prisoner by tradition. Spielberg doesn't want his own art to be changed because it's his and he wants the original artist's intent to be preserved. I don't think future generations are under any obligation to honor artist's intent.
That is a valid question to ask. I have kids around that age and restricted Insta/TikTok/etc to <30 min per day. Yet from 13yo most platforms see kids as adults.

The healthcare is not "free" - health insurance is mandatory, and its quality varies massively depending on your insurer, the hospital/doctor you go to, etc.
I'd hazard a guess that a lot of America's soft power is through the giant companies it created. Big Pharma, Big Banks, Big Tech...

If CIA wants to tap a foreign dictator, I'm sure they can make a friendly call to some office software maker and ask for a one-off. Embargoes carry so much more pressure if there is no alternative to Made in USA. And so on.

Other countries are generally not in a position to wield this power but totally want to, or recognise the risk and pay through the nose to mitigate it. Look at France, which has built a complete domestic defense industry just to be independent of the USA.

You may argue this power is misused, and that's probably true, but in principle it is a nice-to-have for states, and thus societies, and probably the thing that keeps America birthing decacorns despite the costs.

Good job leaving out some important details to blame the greens.

1. Coal was turned on because France messed up their nuclear fleet

2. They were meant to be turned off. But due to Russia's boyscout army having a field day, they were put on ready, in case the gas goes low. Which didn't happen, but ironically they had to be turned on to keep France from going dark.

3. It was conservatives who messed up the renewable thing and did a back and forth with nuclear

4. It was conservatives who stopped or slowed down the shutdown of fossil power plants, because of the "but muh job" gang

5. It was conservatives, once again, who put ridiculous rules in place to prevent wind power from being built in sufficient amount (Bavaria)

6. Greens weren't in power for 16 years, but still get the blame. Once again it was conservatives in the majority, who did their best to make fossil fuel lobbyists happy the entire time.

7. The majority of households heat with fossil fuels (mostly gas nowadays). No amount of nuclear can change that overnight. Millions of homes need to switch their entire heating systems. This should have been done long ago, but guess who prevented it?

So if you want to blame someone, blame the CDU/CSU for their lobbyism and the SPD for their lack of a spine.
they have been trying for years, but Tropic Thunder remains.
It's still a (de-facto) monopoly practice.
It’s not about the speed, it’s about data limits. LTE had fairly restrictive data caps due to congestion constraints whereas more mature 5G deployment will allow for reasonable data caps and still acceptable service for enough people.
My 22 Ford has problems with the volume. Sometimes it just keeps pumping to max and you have to fight with it for up to 30 seconds as it's blasting your ears out.

That's kinda the problem; these 'Infotainment' systems keep getting upgraded/etc for marketing purposes but don't have enough care put in the upgrades to make sure stuff works right.

"Move Fast and Break things" is not a good motto for anything that does in a car IMO.
I've tried it with a prompt that matches my taste: "Write a short analysis in the style of a celebrated movie critique about the allusion to the moon landing that could be seen in Kubrick's movie 'The Shining'.

I got one subtle reference. I think it's safe to assume that if your prompt only mentions the moon hoax and Shining concepts with equal weight it doesn't know which one you are more interested in. So if one has some misconception in it, then it makes sense to correct you more strongly. Also, LLM-s aren't manipulating you, that requires intention which they don't have.
..if not all. And they certainly knew it then too.

Maybe they didn't really care, and had a similar view to us about the matter. I don't think anyone believes the Vatican is sending actual true cross relics for the coronation. Still, the fact that the artefact has been a fake relic for 1000 years, has a history, is being sent by the pope... those are enough for it to function as a symbol.

I think it's always ironically hard, with history, to know if the mindset was different or similar to ours. Ancient economies sometimes seem to work in ways that ours wouldn't for mindset reasons. Other times things are more similar to our times than we suppose.

I think we're bad at recognising which parts of our own culture are unique and novel, and which are relatively trivial, common, or even inherent.

If you do use IPFS, then be aware that it has loads of traps you wouldn't expect.

1. A unique computer key identity is created on startup.

2. It announces every network adapter you have to the dHT, including localhost, docker virtual network adapters, everything.

3. If someone is sharing a specific hash content, you can query the network for their machine key and all their network interfaces, and everything else they're sharing.

4. I have early IRC communications that the ipfs.io gateway also quietly watches for 'bad hashes' and reports them to authorities. This was initially the decision they made to hunt down child porn predators, but this can be easily pivoted to copyright violators.

5. I also caught early on (in the 0.34 version) that google was already crawling computers, and all their shared hashes'. I had a few files I created that were very unique, and a curious search showed them to me, along with my machine's key.

For completely legal bulk data, IPFS is a terrific solution. But for anything that is illegal or might be illegal in the future, well, I have to question that usage for those aforementioned reasons.
