There's nothing special in RME regarding its USB operation.

iPad can emit material with different sampling rate (haven't verified different bit depth, but I guess, there should be no issues), iPad also knows not to meddle with the software mixing and delegates everything to the DAC. It behaves exactly as I'd like it to behave.

No joke intended. My point was, that if iPad has no issues with this device, then it must be able to drive any other USB Audio Class interface.

Aren’t you forgetting the time aspect? If you’re keeping that code in RAM for just a few seconds at most then the probability of a random bit flip is negligible, even if the hourly rate is high.

But I agree this sounds unrealistic.
Bear in mind the default behaviour if there were just two balls and you never added any more. Then the proportion of red picks vs blue picks would tend to 1/2. So there's naturally a tendency for the proportion to concentrate in the middle.

As you say, the way in which new balls are added tends to push the proportion towards the extremes.

The uniform distribution is the result of these two tendencies exactly cancelling out.
I like rust a lot but when you get into errors because some deeply generic trait can't be matched, believe me, the compiler's messages are cryptic :-)
Is it really oversold? Anytime there are Julia threads is much more common to find a reactionary take like the one that started this thread or some dismissal based on a superficial syntax complaint.

There _are_ legitimate complaints about the language (or more exactly, its runtime). Julia 1.9 is a significant milestone on addressing those.

Maybe Julia will not suceed on overtaking anything, but that is not because of a lack of merit.

Thank you for giving me the solution to this problem!

I always wanted devdocs to work (long train journeys especially would suddenly be more fun) but after this happened a couple of times and I couldn't figure it out or stop it I gave up.
I never really experienced that in real life. That is the thing we need to cope with in functional safety or some call it machine safety. There are people working with (mainly) electrical machines and by possible all measures an error cause by interference, bit flip, stuck bit, … needs be detected that the worst case of dead and injured people needs to be prevented. That are things we also need to cope with in automated/self driving cars.

If they'd proposed (or even just implemented) improvements that at least suggested they'd considered existing options and wanted to try to maximise the ability to do interop (even with proxies), I'd have been more sympathetic.

Steam sells games which require third-party launchers to work. For example: Red Dead Redemption 2 requires the Rockstar Launcher to work (many a negative steam review regarding this), and this launcher allows you to buy other Rockstar games (The GTA franchise, LA Noire and more).

So yeah, Steam definitely allows distribution of storefronts.

4 bit flips per GB in a working day, in every GB of my laptop. Let's keep using powers of 2: 256 days when I'm using it it's 1024 bit flips per GB per year. Some will happen in unused memory, some in running programs. It's 1024 * N bit flips in our code editor per year, were N is how many times our editor + language servers are larger than 1 GB.

Some in unused and unsaved data, some in code paths I'm not using. However some will probably crash a program because of a wrong or invalid machine code instruction or visibly alter data.

Times that per the number of people using computers. Those spelling mistakes or wrong figures were not our fault after all?

In a code editor people should see one character git diffs in files that are open in the editor, parked in a long unused tab (if the editor detects the change and saves it or asks to.)
Right now, I am just analyzing. Not working on any new projcts.

There are maintenance advantages and longer time to patch with kitchen-sink ML containers like kaggle/docker-python because it takes work to entirely bump all of the versions in the requirements specification files (and run integration tests to make sure code still runs after upgrading everything or one thing at a time).

What's best practice for including a sizeable dataset in a container (that's been recently re-) built with repo2docker?

This paper is ~15 years old. It was published in 2009, but the data was collected 2006-2008. As densities for things like RAM increase, error rates have to decrease commensurately to hide errors from end users.

Additionally, Google runs hardware in their datacenters in a much more pathological way than most consumers will (e.g. they are more likely to run hardware much hotter than typical consumers).

The point is that the figures in the paper are an interesting starting point for discussion, but they're not necessarily applicable to your laptop.

Yep. I cut my teeth making custom .ocx components. That teenager was part of your dll hell!

VB.net is pretty good, but at that point I just used C#. I go back and make C# guis every now and then with winforms. It always makes me think “how is everything else including QT and WPF and CSS worse decades later?” ;)

And how about that experiment with Electron? That ultimately ended up with me typing `atom foo.py` a few times a month and then being sad (50% of the time because it takes forever to load, the other 50% because it died like 3 years ago and isn’t installed).
Not sure I see the “secure” part of this.
I don't think you've missed any context, it's just the discussion continuing on a tangent I guess. Anyway, the question is: how do you prosecute the people who perpetuate oppressive regimes? Even when Nazi Germany fell, all the people responsible were not prosecuted; there were simply far too many. The top people were, of course, but low-level police or whoever were not. But all those people, collectively, are part of the problem, which is my point. It's not just a few jerks at the top, it's all the other people below them who enable them (especially the police or other security services). Should all the cops be rounded up and shoved into the gas chambers for their crimes of complicity? I don't think the court system can realistically prosecute that many people, and a few of them probably did try in some ways to resist.
Is coincidence plausible here? Anyhow, Ian Fleming's thoughts on such things seem applicable:

Why can’t a trans person “make friends with someone who hold beliefs different than their own”?

Nobody is saying “make friends with someone who hates you”. That’s true of anyone.

But can a trans person make friends with someone who disagrees on that minors should be able to start transition therapy without informing their parents?

Sure, why not?

If you can’t be friends with people who don’t hold 100% of the same political views you do, you’re going to have a very lonely life.

It's easier if you eat meat and know how to kill your chickens, as you can 'rotate' them out every 2-3 years, my mother's chickens have one egg a week max.

As an academic, I don't think this would stick as it makes it hard to refer to papers in a common way (if you're chatting with your team).

Referring to something like the "Lin transformers paper" or the "Vaswani attention paper" is easy to get people onto a common ground. If you randomise the authors, you'd need to fall back to full paper titles, and long paper titles aren't particularly evocative.

Randomisation may be fine for citation (particularly numbered citation formats like[0], where the names are only in the bibliography), but even then, you are breaking the flow of thought. If someone references an article like "blah blah(mayford 2020)", then for those familiar with the field you can more easily continue reading without having to break your chain of thought to jump to the bibliography and figure out what paper that was.

edit ----

a further thought... referring by TEAM might be alright, but falls down when you're multidisciplinary. e.g. you might refer to the "Deepmind" paper, or the "Facebook llm paper"...but my area of research is agritech so we work with animal scientists from a different institution. Do we refer to both teams? 'The google/meta paper'? Again, you're likely to just fall back to whatever is the first author or institution in your mind.

The "Sun-Pluto distance" is colloquially understood as both of those things - a distance in a straight line right now, and the radius of its orbit on average. I think it's far more common for people to assume the latter as I did, but feel free to ask around and find out for yourself. Note that the instantaneous Sun-Pluto distance varies considerably due to the eccentricity of its orbit, and the distance OP quoted is the orbital semi-major axis (what one might refer to as the orbital radius for the sake of brevity), not the present distance.

OP was mathematically correct, just a bit unclear. We really don't need to spend so much time on this.
> I suggest reading more of the type system literature

Like what, in general? I've been working with variously typed languages of various maturity with stuff like structural typing, null-safety, sealed/enum types, inlined and dto/data types, functional types, various implementations of traiting/inheritance/prototyping, etc for years. Do you have a specific point or did you assume that being vague makes you look mysteriously smart?

Honestly, you are acting like all we ever had is JS, C and Rust.
Going where? I wasn't arguing for the existence of a soul.

Although, sure, if we could somehow manage to determine that souls did exist then presumably an AI model as capable as a human would also be eligible for one.

I don’t think it was quite so clear on intel 10yrs ago, hard to believe but Apple introduced the 64 bit A7 in 2013, for me that was the point of no recovery for intel (without major changes like we are seeing since Gelsinger returned). The path to apple silicon was clear then it was just a matter of timing, intel had no cohesive strategy for mobile…

Apple has a long history with the majority of it spent as the underdog, so I think they are less likely to be usurped… in the next few decades they could get to the point where no senior management where there in the dark days and then it all goes to hell, but I think they’ve cemented themselves pretty well into position…

The black market tends to pop up to satisfy demand in violation of controls. Find a high ranking official who can tell the police to back off and cut them in: then you're in business, at least until they're purged. But even then, the next person in the seat will most likely respond to the same incentives and business will resume...

Even in North Korea, this process takes place. It's just that much slower and riskier, and when lots of controls are slapped on people become too destitute to buy product. But the letter of the law is ultimately just a "threat" in your SWOT analysis when you're able to tempt people with personal gain.

What good governance ultimately does is to enable everyone's indifference on these matters: the rules are out in the open, nobody's keeping secrets and blackmailing their rivals, and the result is sufficiently fair that going against it is a position only a tiny minority are inclined to take. Once everyone's in circumlocutions about their actual position because the politics have gotten out of hand, you have the kind of confusing, hysterical mess that would move someone to turn off the Internet rather than let any more rumors spread.

Thus, this kind of tech - anything in the realm of decentralized communications - is easiest to access in the places of the world that need it the least.
Certainly there is a lot of magic going on in very popular Python libraries that implement autodiff or JIT compilation like PyTorch or JAX -- although the maturity of the ecosystem does mean that it is often quite well hidden. For the other languages, well... if you don't think C++'s templates tricks, Haskell's extension potpourri or indeed Rust's own combination of traits and type-level programming techniques can get convoluted, I'm not sure what to say.

Good observation. As someone raised in a Catholic country, I am still weirded out by the Protestant idea to get together after a funeral to mourn, mingle and eat. (I'm not even sure what you call that)

In my mind mourning is a very private and too sad an event to have people around, and there is bound to be cultures where mourning is cause to celebrate, have fun, and enjoy life in all of its beauty.
> This is perhaps one of the few legitimate use cases for a distributed blockchain.

It's incredible how a global propaganda machine has turned one of the most transformative technologies of our time into something that's considered shady and even crime-adjacent by default, and for which "legitimate" use cases are somehow considered special, when in reality there are countless potential applications for distributed ledgers. But the powers that be want to maintain centralized control at all costs, and their pushback has clearly reached even the minds of HN users.

What I want to do is not have to have a unified build system for multiple platforms and ABIs without any problem, but for some reason, to target anything apple, I have to use a physical apple machine.

It's absolutely abusing market position, because it ends up being that in my profession, you end up purchasing mac computers for the whole office, because then you can target all platforms without any fuss. Not because the hardware or software has any merits, but because they artificially restrict these use cases so that's the only option to target a significant market.
I see what you're getting to - while you're not wrong, you're not right either.

They're not carrying hitjobs on rivals or opponents - they're eliminating gang leaders and major criminals. The judiciary is either afraid of giving these gangsters actual sentences, or have been bribed by the gangsters. To solve this, the police has effectively taken the execution of justice into their own hand.

I know it may sound absurd, and the idea of the police taking matters into their own hands would normally scare me, but Uttar Pradesh seems to be an exception. The rule of law has broken down so completely it needs the law to be broken to be brought back, if that makes any sense to you.

The gangsters that were killed were a bit like the mafia in that sense - everyone knew they were crooks, and everyone knew what they did. It seems the tipping point for the ruling party to execute (or 'encounter', as it is called in India) these gangsters is when they kill policemen. Since the judiciary will not punish them, it becomes necessary for the police to inculcate a fear of the police in gangsters' minds in order for their policing activities to actually be effective.
I don't understand your question. If your consulting firm generates double your current income, then even lesser savings taking the leap would be preferable.

Since you claim to be very risk averse, then you need to consider how robust your consulting firm income is and the effects of inflation on your savings. But no job is guaranteed either. Sometimes you have to go with your gut. Analysis paralysis can lead to worse outcomes.
