Any prosecutor not savvy enough to realize charging these women is tantamount to handing them public office does not deserve their job. Pushing back on tedious traffic enforcement has national bipartisan appeal.

FWIW, I think resistance, as hinted at in Disciplined Minds, is a weak basis for an identity. A "truth to power" speaker is only good for certain kinds of truths and certain kinds of power. Its a role that doesn't mean much outside of that; it doesn't hold up in the long run.

Chrome (to include the original Chromium and forks like Edge and Brave) holds 80~90% of the browser market share, and the vast majority of those installations will either autoupdate or be manually updated on a regular basis.

The logical conclusion thus is that whatever feature(s) introduced by Chrome will be widely available for common use in a short period of time.

This is the positive side to a monopolized browser market: Whatever Chrome supports is what the commons can support.
Maybe it's a fad, but one that could subsidize your operation with a VC- and AI-backed offering "that scales" :)

Note that ram init in VisionFive 2 is done within u-boot SPL, which is loaded into cache-as-ram from the selected (microswitches on the board) boot device.

The non-rewritable ROM inside the SoC does just take care of reading the microswitches and fetching u-boot SPL (or oreboot, an alternative early bootloader in the works).

Remarkably, the boot selection can be UART. This small ROM has an XMODEM implementation for receiving the early bootloader.

u-boot SPL does then check the microswitches again for where to fetch the next stage, which is usually opensbi with u-boot as bundled payload.
Years before this guy got started, I was working in C. Then I moved onto more C, C++, then back to C. Today I'm working in a C++ codebase that compiles to C.

Lisp on the side, plus the Unix cruft that goes with build systems: shell, awk, make, ...

I went through the language churn as a kid. BASIC, assembly languages, Pascal, Modula-2. Studying CS pulled me into C world; all the upper level coursework at that time was systems programming in C on Unix, whether it be compilers, networking, distributed systems, operating systems or computer graphics or what have you.

I didn't think I'd be cranking out C for another 30 years after that, but I also didn't think of any reasons I wouldn't be.

Not everything I worked on is around; but the skills left behind are entirely relevant. There is hardly any technique I ever used that is inapplicable.

You have good taste in tables.

For random trivia: Medieval Madness has Tina Fey as a voice actor. Monster Bash has a voice that sounds like Katey Sagal (Peggy Bundy, Leela/Futurama), but I have only seen others speculating the same on Pinside. Do you have any idea?

You rarely see Junkyard (or ToM-- a top 5 IMO) mentioned, but it is a unique table. High Speed 2: The Getaway is another I would lump in top tier. Maybe toss in Hurricane as a throwback DMD table?

Space Station is the most infuriatingly "easy" table I have encountered.

> We also wonder about how Personal Safety will be able to do this type of always-on recording without generating excess heat, especially if your phone needs to be mounted in a position that’s likely to see a lot of direct sunlight.

That's what I immediately thought of. I can't see this working too well unless they solve the overheating issues.

I had my Google Pixel 7 Pro shut down due to overheating, on a reasonably hot day (~35C) where I was walking around and taking a bunch of photos.

I had to use my hands to absorb the heat, to cool it down enough to turn back on so I could call a Taxi and get somewhere cool.

Almost every Diesel vehicle Volkswagen produced for many years was fraud. The company designed those vehicles, with criminal intent, to deceive regulators (and customers!) into believing the product was something that it actually wasn't.

How is that different from what Theranos did? Theranos fraudulently claimed their blood test was capable of quantifying various factors. It wasn't. Volkswagen fraudulently claimed their cars were capable of meeting emissions standards. They weren't.

Yet Volkswagen is still allowed to operate, even though their business ran on fraud for a long time.

Madison, WI recently had changes to make them more feasible ( https://www.cityofmadison.com/news/mayor-and-alders-propose-... and https://www.cityofmadison.com/development-services-center/1-... )

And regarding your space looking at 500 sq ft and 1000 sq ft with the Madison zoning:

Size
Up to 900 square feet of living space.
At most, two bedrooms.

So yes, that is the approximate size limit of an ADU.

Maybe it's been too long and things have changed, but that's not how H1B visas work. I have a smallish S-corp and brought in some a long time ago.

We filed, got the paperwork submitted, it got approved, they eventually came to work for me stateside. This took 14 months from filing to arrival. No one filing for a visa in February is having someone come over in March. No company is firing someone and filling that spot with an H1B the next day, unless that H1B is a contractor, and another company he already works for holds his visa.

So the major missing thing here is (unless the process radically changed), is the article is blatantly lying.

Martin Scorsese and others have complained about this, but tend to get shouted down by Marvel enthusiasts, but yes: the mid-range films from studios have largely evaporated; as they run more like any other business, the focus is entirely on ROI and not at all on art, whereas studios (for most of their history) tended to balance out ruthless financials around their money-makers with a desire to set aside some of the profit for low-return, mid-budget works that skew more to the art side of things.

Air gaps are the smart way yep.
>CS seems to be very weird in a lot of these respects. In a standard engineering job (e.g. Aerospace, electrical, mechanical) you generally send in your resume, talk with a few people (2-3 interviews) where a few technical questions will be asked, and that's about it. Resume -> phone screen (~30 minutes) -> In person interview (30min - 90 min). No whiteboard problems/puzzles. No take home tests/projects.

One distinction is that traditional engineering jobs are usually advertised as requiring a Bachelors of Engineering degree from an accredited institution. In the software development world I don't think there is such a hard requirement on the types of qualifications the applicant needs.

It's not impossible but it would be relatively hard to fake your way through a 4 year Engineering degree.

Part of the requirements to get my Engineering degree was that I had to complete 12 weeks (60 days) of industrial experience (this was done through internship over the summer break between 3rd and 4th year of the degree) - I don't think software world has the same requirements for practical hands on experience to get certified etc. in the way traditional engineering does.

In my final year I also had to submit an independent 70 page undergraduate thesis and pass an oral defense of the thesis given by 4 professors which was way more intense than any job interview I've had since. It would be very hard to BS your way past the professors without a solid technical understanding.

Essentially I think that in Engineering obtaining the undergraduate degree is the technical screening.
>>Starting with Ubuntu 23.10, PPA archives will be stored as .sources files formatted with the DEB822 source format, which embeds the GPG keys directly into the file’s Signed-By field.

When the PPA archive is removed the associated GPG key will be removed as well and that the GPG key is dedicated to the specific PPA archive and can’t be used for other PPAs and other GPG keys can’t be used to sign the PPA.

You’ll find this change interesting enough to upgrade to Ubuntu 23.10, which will also ship with the upcoming GNOME 45 desktop environment, and the upcoming Linux 6.5 kernel series.

AI can't do hiring because it knows the best hire is the one you don't do: why bother with a pesky human when it can do the job itself cheaper/faster/soonish better.

Aside: having LinkedIn is a red flag in my book. I understand that one's desperation could lead to try getting a job using that cesspool of anti-patterns glued together with pure spite for the user, nevertheless, a red flag. Or to put it otherwise, if having a LinkedIn is a requirement for you to get hired, your job will disappear in 5 to 7 years (due to AI or other corporate movements).
>if you've seen Windows Phone, and the later Win10 Mobile, those were actually designed from grounds up for small screens, and didn't have the problems you describe.

Indeed. The flipside of Windows 8 Metro being fucking horrible on desktop is that it's awesome on actual tablets and other mobile devices.

>The problem that still remained, and ultimately killed the platform, is the lack of third party apps also optimized for small screen and touch. These days, it doesn't matter how good the base UX is if the OS doesn't have a good YouTube app, for example.

Windows's value lies with the Win32+x86 ecosystem, and every single iteration of Windows that failed to practically implement them (I'm looking at you Windows RT and Windows XP 64-bit Edition) has failed miserably to the surprise of noone except for Microsoft themselves.

Win32 has singlehandedly slain and foiled every single one of Microsoft's plans for expansion.

Everyone buys and runs Windows because we want to use our favorite Win32 programs from today to thirty years ago.
Med-PaLM 2 reaches a score of 86.5% on MEDQA (USMLE)
IMHO x86 has better existing facilities for different operating modes and virtualisation --- going back to the 286 protected mode descriptor types --- that make it a good fit for being the "host" of an ARM or other architecture. Also, the x86/PC boot process is far better understood and open than those of the widely differing ARM SoCs.
My favorite thing about Elizabeth Holmes is what she said to NYT reporter Amy Chozick when Amy mentioned that Jennifer Lawrence had declined to play Holmes in The Dropout:

> I believed it would be how I would be good at business and taken seriously and not taken as a little girl or a girl who didn’t have good technical ideas. Maybe people picked up on that not being authentic, since it wasn’t.

This bitch is as pure and distilled a psychopath as we are ever likely to see.
You're defending an argument that is blatantly self contradictory within the space of two sentences.

A) "anything he suggests should be categorically rejected because he’s just not in a position to be trusted."

B) "If what he suggests are good ideas then hopefully we can arrive at them in some other way with a clean chain of custody."

These sentences directly follow each other and directly contradict each other. Logically you can't categorically (the categorical is important here. Categorical means something like "treat as a universal law") reject a conclusion because it is espoused by someone you dislike, while at the same time saying you will accept that conclusion if arrived at by some other route.

"I will reject P if X proposes P, but will accept P if Y proposes P." is just poor reasoning.

> If a type is "pinned" (wrapped in a Pin), it is a guarantee that the memory location of the value inside will not change.

Pin is a wrapper around a pointer type and disallows moving the value that that pointer points at. You don’t pin a value, you pin a reference to a value. IMHO this sentence is unclear about that.

You sorta get the right vibes from the rest of the post, but there’s a major important concept in here it explains decently but also just wrong enough that you may internalize the incorrect thing.

If you have $3M in the bank then you are already a millionaire and the choice as framed above doesn't make sense anymore. It's not a 70% chance of being a millionaire—it's a 100% chance of being one already with a 70% chance of making another million which, as you say, looks a lot different to somebody who already has $3M than to somebody who has < $1M.

Those are the necessary pre and post processing steps that you need to compute outside of the FRACTRAN system for the fibonacci example from the article.

If you could do those steps the entire process would be self contained, which you should be able to if the claim of yielding all possible computations is correct.

(actually, it is log2(x) that would need to be implemented and not 2^x, but my point remains).

FWIW, most Octopus cards do expire eventually. If you don’t use it for three years, it’ll be deactivated and they’ll deduct a $15-per-year admin fee until either your balance is gone or you reactivate the card.

The only way to avoid this is to have a special concession card (seniors, kids, etc) or to buy an Octopus outright[1], which most people don’t do. The tourist Octopus, notably, can only be bought outright.
