I'm getting a bit of deja vu from this recebt rediscovery of ajax but i really like it. Back when js was obscure and jQuery became ubiquitous, that practice was a go to and sites started to feel, albeit sluggish, like more and more like todays spa centric ecosystem.

Seeing projects spawn that the default that ssr was and making those early, simple optimisation tools much more streamlined, understandable, accessible and purely functional is great!
It's alas unlikely but oh how grand it would be to not need HDMI.

USB4 ports mandatorily have DisplayPort output, on each port. HDMI is not going to catch up. It is an expensive proprietary system & won't ever match the availability.
It's relevant because the display just needs an HDMI port. You can plug a HDMI-to-USC-C cable into a computer and a TV or projector and it'll work using this. If your device doesn't do displayport then displayport support is moot.
The attacks are mostly directed at sailboats, not motorboats.
It's also super frustrating as the copyright holder. IIRC the Software Freedom Conservancy is still fighting against Vizio's GPL violations in court. I have no idea if the case will ultimately go anywhere, and hiring laywers is expensive.

Likewise, for this case of copyright infringement, I am anything but optimistic at the sheer amount of legal expenses and time needed to address this.
So...your concern is for branding continuity?
I feel like we have all lost sight of what Dijkstra noted: it is all about the computation (paraphrasing).

Also what is missing from much of today's programming training is a problem solving attitude. The focus seems to be overwhelmingly on tools and arguments about tools, not about how to solve problems.
At first I thought this was going to be one of the early VentureStar demonstrators. No, that was the X33 program. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_Martin_X-33

Also, Andy Bechtolsheim:

> Bechtolsheim and Cheriton were two of the first investors in Google, investing US$100,000 each in September 1998. When he gave the check to Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Google's founders, the company had not yet been legally incorporated. Claims that Bechtolsheim coined the name "Google" are untrue. However, he did motivate the founders to officially organize the company under that name.[14][15]

HDMI Alt Mode was basically dead on arrival.

The computer world pretty much standardized on DisplayPort already, so USB-C devices would already have to support DisplayPort Alt Mode anyways. Why add support for yet another Alt Mode when DP-to-HDMI converter chips are dirt cheap, and pretty much all USB-C-to-HDMI cables will be using those anyways due to the aforementioned DP ubiquity.

One thing which really bothers me is that all those Alt Mode specifications are proprietary. USB-C itself is a completely open spec and anyone can download the PDFs from their website - but the Alt Modes require you to join the VESA / HDMI consortium, with an associated member fee and NDA.
Clinically, what causes the urge to have an addiction? Like in your statement, replacing food with gambling. I would assume that these are fundamentally two different reward systems for the brain, or maybe not?
We definitely profile "dev startup" a lot, it directly impacts team speed and ability to work on the codebase. Dev startup usually includes a majority of "user startup" too, so it helps -- but it's also really easy to overlook stuff like "massive mods/mod dirs" and the like.

Speaking from experience... Once, I was so annoyed at a "startup UI"-related dialog taking way (wayyyy) too long to load. I dropped an expletive into Slack and, not much later, I was guided toward fixing my own ~2 year old mistake. We were scanning some "user-generated files" in a way that worked fine but scaled horribly -- the operation went from multiple seconds down to milliseconds. Ugh.
I mean, I would unironically be fine with people saying systemd/Linux when that's what they're talking about; it's a subset of GNU/Linux and points at what we're talking about pretty easily and specifically...
And when people start drying like with Tesla FSD then they might come to their senses. Or they might first attempt to ignore it like many people tried to downplay Covid deaths.
Virtually all USB-C-to-HDMI cables use DisplayPort Alt Mode and internally convert from DP to HDMI.
Let's deconstruct your statement:

>> Who was born in Canada in 1951 near one of the best engineering universities in the world,

He was born in Vancouver; Waterloo, ON is more than 4000 kms away, so not really close. Waterloo was also not the globally recognized institution we talk about today. It was a relatively new school.

>> perfectly suited to benefit from economic liberalization

He graduated from UBC in 1973, in the middle of a recession with economic stagnation and high unemployment. With a degree in mathematics he likely had no choice but to go on to grad school.

>> lucky enough to be interested in computers at a time when almost nobody was and as a result was able to be around the best computer science people.

I'm not sure how you're "lucky" to be interested in a subject deep enough to pursue a graduate degree, but regardless, in the 70's computer science was still not held in the same regard as mathematics and other pure sciences in most of academia. He was obviously driven by a deep desire to explore an emerging field despite this.

No one is saying he earned $10B through hard work, but discounting the luck he helped generate is really petty and unfair.
> Cheriton stands as one of the luckiest and wealthiest educators of all time

Ugh. Repeated in this thread too.

> VMware, where he was an early investor;[4] and Arista, where he was cofounder and chief scientist. He has funded at least 20 companies.[5]

> He campaigned against Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) that was favored by telephone carriers, preferring Ethernet, which he saw as a simpler, proven option. Ethernet gradually superseded alternatives

Sure he's lucky with the 10B, but this guy is very clearly someone who knows what makes a successful company and understands which technological advances have a good likelihood of winning. It would be interesting to see the returns of his investments aside from Google but:

* VMWare: Early investor, the company would go on to be acquired for 625M by EMC before being spun out into IPO.

* Kealia: Founder of a company that got acquired by Sun. Deal undisclosed but probably $10-20M.

* Arista: Founder of a company that IPO'd at ~8B and is worth 44B now.

* Aster Data Systems: Investor & advisory board member acquired for $263M in 2011

* Tintri: Early investor, company IPO'ed at $220M before going bankrupt a year later & getting acquired for 60M (still would be a healthy exit for him)

At whatever point repeated luck is a signal of skill, this guy has heartily hurdled it as far as I'm concerned. Sure, maybe he wouldn't be a billionaire, but he'd still be fabulously wealthy and he keeps taking so many successful shots that if it wasn't Google it would probably be something else (not to mention someone like him was probably already getting well-compensated by Stanford).

I ran a similar off-grid system for 10 years (starting in 2003), but mine was of a somewhat larger scale. The server consumed about 400W and I had 1280W of solar panels. I started with lead-acid deep-cycle marine batteries, but later switched to sealed AGM because they did not vent hydrogen while charging. Admittedly, it was not 100% off-grid. I had a 50A 12V DC power supply on-grid that could power and/or charge the system if needed.

I switched the marine batteries out after about four years of operation.

I took down the solar panels in 2013 because the roof needed repair.

If I were doing it today, I would probably give Lithium-Iron a try. They weigh less, have higher power density, and last longer.

I got an email from a recruiter for Eric Schmidt's startup incubator. Two things it was working on was programmable money (think CBDCs with all sorts of power to fuck with how you can spend your money) and "turning human capital into an alternative investable asset class." He's also well known as an outspoken advocate of converting Western militaries into fully amoral murder drones.
At first I misunderstood the title, thinking that for your hobby OS you targeted gameboy hardware. Makes me wonder what would be the first game console you could really make a usable GUI OS on.
You probably haven't been using it for ages, because virtually nobody bothered to implement it. Everyone is using DisplayPort Alt Mode instead - even for C-to-HDMI adapters.

Exercise is free and the side effects are you get stronger, more energetic, and better looking.

Ozempic costs money and its side effects include cancer, kidney failure, and ruining your eyes.

edit: many point out calorie intake is the real problem, it's true: buy a kitchen scale, weigh your food, count your calories, and you will lose weight. Exercise is optional compared to that. Still, both are free and have more benefits.

As someone who worked on a smaller, but still millions-of-users live-service game, profiling of average resource usage and the loading screens was done periodically even if there were no code changes to the area of the game in question.

Given that our team was over an order of magnitude smaller than Rockstar, I would be very surprised if they did not have anyone even casually browsing a profiler every 3 months or something, though I think at their scale (LinkedIn claims 5k employees) they can probably have a team or two where everyone's entire job description be performance maintenance.

I don't get your timeline; he pursued a field that was not very popular, specifically in academia, in the 70's. That was definitely against the grain.
It depends on the line! Many lines of C will translate to a single instruction.

Arithmetic expressions generally need one instruction per C operator. Each array access might need one or two extra instructions. A function call will need one instruction to move each argument into place (unless the argument is the result of arithmetic or array/pointer dereference in which case that part is for free), plus one or two instructions to jump to the function being called.

I've been working on a little project that uses D1 and have been hoping that is how D1 will evolve. A db per customer in my case.

No. The additional costs to the healthcare system due to people being overweight probably exceed 12000/person/year, but if not exceed it, they certainly come close. Moreover, it's not unheard of to mandate cheaper drug prices, and now that we understand how these drugs work, there will be more of them in the pipeline.

VW has been using capacitative buttons which combine all of touchscreens’ flaws with all of buttons’ limitations. They really nailed having the worst of both worlds.

Their faux buttons activate on mere touch, so you can’t safely locate the buttons by feel, and you still have to look! It’s also possible to activate them by accident from brushing your hand. They tried to prevent this by rejecting quick presses, but it only made the buttons feel slower and less responsive and sometimes ignore intentional presses.

On top of that instead of tactile feel and satisfying clicks, the buttons are plasticky and creak if you actually press them. They make ID. interior feel cheap. I’m flabbergasted why VW keeps using them. Do they think these are cool? Do they save $0.10 per car on a few tiny springs?

"There are eight basic directions: North, south, east, west, northeast, southeast, southwest, and northwest. One switch for each in the weather vane, but only two wires for all of them. But how?"

One of the first projects that I took on did a similar thing where there were 4 buttons all connected to one pin on an Arduino. Having next to 0 official EE schooling, this technique impressed me with its simplicity. Just need to ensure that the resistance of each one allows for space between the +/- tolerances of an analog signal. It's also one of those little "tricks" that makes me want to keep finding other new things and keep going.
It would be so much cheaper to do it today, especially if you're comfortable with DIY and don't mind buying some used panels. Easier too, there are so many turnkey and DIY friendly solutions on the market now.
I talked to a fair share of late stage VCs and they like to think of themselves as “category king makers” - the term itself reflects the general sense of humbleness in the VC community. Besides the “venture predation” described in the paper “category king making” also entails cutting off potential competitors from funding. The theory is that once a Softbank or Sequoia have chosen their horse other VCs will be discouraged to invest in the same category as it “is taken”. And many times the VCs actually act behind the scenes and actively discourage their peers to seek an investment in a competitor of their “category king”. It truly is a disgusting game to watch once you have been close enough. VCs for better or worse are the essence of the tech ecosystem. Make the world a better place. my a* :)
Less trivial than just shooting them out of the sky or jamming gps signals? They are only using them because they are cheap. They don't have much choice in this war.
USB Type-C is such a mistake for video connectivity. It just doesn’t work most of the time and when it works, any tiny move of the USB Type-C cable breaks it down.
What they're getting rid of is all of the extra fun memory management modes the x86 processor has, condensing everything down into just the paging mode with extremely gimped segment support that's all that's available in x86-64. That suggests to me that someone within Intel is thinking about basically rewriting the memory subsystem, where having to support all the fun things like real mode or virtual 8086 mode is much more painful. The 16-bit data operations are still around, with the 0x66 prefix, and even the ability to default a segment to not needing the 0x66 prefix to get 16-bit registers may still be around, though I'm not savvy enough on the retained features to say for certain.

To be honest, there are two legacy x86 features which I suspect do have a noticeable tax on the support in the execution units: the x87 FPU stuff (due to the 80-bit floating-point types, and a variety of hardware-implemented transcendental instructions that need to be supported), and the legacy addressing modes.
I had the thought years back to layer a Wayland-like surface rendering protocol over X using an HTTP UPGRADE like primitive and XIE extended event IDs.

Basically it would transform the socket to this new protocol which keeps X atoms under a binary ID prefix.

This would keep backwards compatibility, with Xorg DIX replaced with a modern server implementation.

This could be modified to a heavy client approach where direct rendering can bypass the server. Or a client can takeover chrome rendering through an extension.
It's not the real deal, but https://www.quantumdata.com/assets/essentials_displayport_us... looks to be quite useful for understanding DP Alt Mode. I've used their DP regular protocol PDFs, though because this is a transcript of an animated webinar, there are images covering text which you'll need to remove in a PDF editor or LibreOffice Draw (which can import PDFs).
That would be a pretty considerable malinvestment considering the divisions of power and how lobbyist/special interests/ultrawealthy influences shape the American political discourse and outcomes. The whole process is a sham. It's all a very public sham, and has been, and I'm sure it's very salient to our geopolitical "opponents", and particularly those seated in the highest echelons.

However, what would make sense is sewing discord amongst the plebs and fraying the few little ties that bind which would drastically shift the US stranglehold because it would invariably lead to schismogenesis and a legitimately fractured nation with dramatic reallocation of power and character. This may be affected to some extent by bitter rivalries in the body politic, but that would be secondary to breaking the nation.

But really it just reads like the Red Scare banter all over again.
very neat! definitely will come in handy.

Exercise does nothing for weight loss if you're eating too much. Exercise has health benefits, but weight loss is not one of them for the vast majority of people. People wildly overestimate how many calories they're burning.

It’s just like intermittent fasting. Nearly everyone can afford it, but only a few people are willing to pay.

While aerobic exercise is more for a healthy circulatory system, anaerobic exercise has proven effective in weight loss.

Exercise has many side effects too, including a risk of injury.

Meanwhile GLP-1 protects and even improves the function of brain, lungs, heart, muscles, bones, and kidneys, it improves sleep quality and reduces sleep duration, it definitely decreases addictive behavior, and even seems to help with some immune issues (anecdotally, but the effect is so strong it’s remarkable).

In the end, person A disproportionately benefited on the backs of persons B and C for the amount of work they did in the entirety of the outcome.

Yeah, person A is arguably merited a ROI, but the insane amount is what some people find is unmerited here.
