> It's a waste of time to worry about probabilities with enough zeroes.

what? no. absolutely not.

the "baseline failure rate" of a program with some input values X is zero.

> in the real world even a mathematically perfect system has a baseline failure rate.

what? no. absolutely not.

x = 1
print(x)

this is not a probabilistic program, there is no baseline failure rate above zero, the output must be "1", any other output means the program is incorrect

this line of reasoning is absolutely invalid -- hash(x) != x
A fool and his money are soon parted. There may be people who show up to the casino drunk, and that can enrich quite a number of other patrons, but then they go home bankrupt and have nothing to play with tomorrow. The steady-state number of drunk idiots is bound to be small because they're self-eliminating.
Yes. For more details, google's your friend.
Solution to people with big problems to read
I think the solution is enrich te text with high quelity and very creative images, sound, music...

What do you think? Are there a project like this in production?

May be google cand do it, LOL.

Thanks!

I haven’t used Reddit in years, at least in the active sense. It has become far more useless than useful.
That's how Meta pulls you in, but reddit has always felt less user-focused than subreddit and comment-focused. Read a link, make some smalltalk about it asynchronously for a few hours, move on.

Reddit is probably among the least sticky social media sites because of it.
> Well, California leads the pack on mass school shootings with the toughest gun laws around

If it's not a per-capita statistic, then it's basically just a population map as CA is the most populous state by far. A quick google search shows the top 3 states are CA, TX and FL - ie, the 3 most populous states in the US.
Well, they're not doing every job, just making sure that everyone is doing every job correctly according to their vision.

I wouldn't call that competence. Conformity would be closer to the truth, but that's not exactly right either. Success in corporate world – or in any large organization – requires that you can ignore your preferences and focus on doing what you are supposed to do. While being good at what you do helps, it's more important to prioritize your role above your person.

That conformity can be a personality trait, or it can be a facade. You usually can't tell the difference. Successful people can be petty and immature behind closed doors, while faking conformity in public.
This is a pretty simplistic take tbh.

Reddit makes money from ads having reach and they're hoping that only a small percentage get premium so that they can continue to make money off of ads.

Why would they reduce the reach their ads are having by making it easy for people to opt-out?

Their API pricing probably reflects the money they are losing by not getting the users on their own platform and showing them ads.

Their hope is that people would switch over to the main app so that their advertisers can pay them more.
Sorry, meant leaded. The dangers were known very early-on but it was such a great way to increase octane rating that many including regulatory agencies allowed themselves to be led into wishful thinking.

It's interesting we're still using leaded when it comes to aviation. The FAA has been quite slow in approving alternatives.
All you have to do is do something like sneak in telemetry, add some sort of back door, who knows.

There are near infinite opportunities for a bad actor to sneak bad code in, so when you're dealing with a bad actor you just don't trust anything they do.

Running code from people who are tied to an authoritarian government is not something you should be doing ever.
A critical look at AI-generated software
Early personal computers used a basically passive backplane (eg. S-100 bus). After that, the Apple ][, IBM PC, and later Macintosh models used a motherboard with expansion cards.

Throughout this era (from, say 1974 through until 2022), the elements that were composed to create a personal computer were MSI, LSI, and VLSI integrated circuits mounted onto a PCB, and wired up with traces on the board(s) and expansion card slots.

The M1-based Macs introduced a new era in personal computer architecture: previously used for phones and embedded devices, the SoC, and particularly, the chiplet-based SoC, took over from the motherboard.

The elements composed to make a PC now are chiplets, wired up with silicon interposers, and encapsulated into an SMT chip. The benefits in speed, bandwidth, and power usage of a SoC over VLSI-on-a-PCB are enormous, and reflected in the performance of the M1-based Macs.

Where do expansion cards fit with an SoC-based model? They're slow, narrow bandwidth, and power-hungry devices. A GPU expansion card on an SoC-based computer might as well be accessed over an Ethernet.

Of course, it's disruptive. People legitimately _like_ the ability to compose their own special combination of functions in their PC, and it allows a level of _end-user_ customization that isn't (currently?) possible with SoCs.

But retaining that level of customization means significant performance costs, and the gap is only going to grow as further "3D" chiplet assembly techniques become common.

The cost of creating a SoC from chiplets is sufficiently high that a market of one (ie. end-user customization) isn't possible. Right now, we get base, Pro, Max, and Ultra variants from Apple. It's possible we'll get more in future, but ... it's fundamentally a mass-market technology.

The era of end-user hardware customization is very likely drawing to a close.
Yes, I’d prefer reddit with no mods, maybe some spam stuff, but minimal and automated.
The incredible thing is that this is an "experiment", not a policy. As an experiment they're ready to harass and alien X percentage of their users? Amazing.

Also, the answer theoretically should be right below the question 'cause it's most relevant but I can see how no one could bring themselves to upvote this.
For someone so concerned about being nice to people... you come of as a little... brash. Your perspective seems more defeatist than helpful.
Did you flag their posts?

I think it is a sad reality, but responding to someone you disagree with implicitly upvotes and elevates their status (it's hard not to, it really is). Responding to someone implicitly says "this thing I am responding to is worth my time," even if that is not your intent.

This property could be seen in America's election with trump where his bad behavior got him incredible amounts of attention which implicitly gave him authority and therefore a "dominant" status. It was the moderate media that elevated trumps message and played it in front of people who otherwise wouldn't have experienced so much exposure to it. The end result was the message that many Americans got was not that trump is evil and wrong, but that trump is not part of the establishment. "Trump is an enemy of the establishment" was the idea that ultimately propelled him into the white house and it was his enemies who ultimately put him there.

If I were you I would spend a few hours on you tube with Timothy Snyder and read his book 'On Tyranny: the illustrated version."

Engadget just repackaging a story from Platformer that doesn't provide sources.
When was this written? Isn't this kind of of solved by MPE (which I believe Linn makes use of)?

We're starting to see several MPE-capable instruments hit the market. I have a pre-order out for the Osmose keyboard, which has per-key pressure and per-key (horizontal) pitch bend. If pre-release reviews are to be believed, it does a very good job capturing things like "a guitarist's string bends, [or] a violinist's skillful vibrato".
> You can also set init_on_free=1 in linux cmdline, the kernel will overwrite freed memory.

Does this only work with kernel buffers? I’m wondering how glibc handles freed memory. I feel like there’s a good chance it doesn’t always notify the kernel that the memory has been freed.
Your argument here is circular. There are other viruses from the same family that nearly caused a global pandemic.
They are desperately trying to be TikTok. It will not work and has no chance of working. Look at their hilariously terrible acquisition of Dubsmash for $50 million (they converted it to a subreddit with 1.5k subscribers when they had 200 million users at their peak and touted having 25% of black teens in their acquisition press release. Every post is people saying the Reddit app sucks and asking where Dubsmash went)
I scrubbed and deleted my account. I’m done. They will have to make major changes in their trajectory for me to consider making a new account. It’s even less about the API changes than the way that they treated Christian Selig, a CEO throwing an indie dev in the mud like he did is disgusting and doesn’t give me hope for the site improving for anyone other than investors and advertisers.
> This is slightly wrong.

A perfect representation of my git usage then!
so when I follow the link to the configuration, I don't see an option to change it, so it's possible they have since doubled down.
I work three of those, but this standup starts before my other two jobs and is too short a block to do much of anything anyway.
"they didn't make the research archives disappear intentionally, lee from accounting just dropped some tea on the server"
SO gives me better insight into who provided the information. When an answer is provided by a project’s main developer or a contributor I know I can rely on the info. From what I’ve seen with GPT it’s a popularity contest. Common mistakes and misinformation are regurgitated like facts and the high quality grammar + spelling makes things sound plausible.

Ask it about something you know is a frequently repeated mistake.

It's in China, not America. Come on now.

The CCP might remove the lab from existence, but they're not gonna do it with a lawsuit.

Chip making is the first industry that was automates by computers. Much like how steam engines were first used in coal mines.
Ideas that could work:

1. You could have some kind of community influence over moderator selection for subreddits over a certain size. StackExchange has (had?) elections for moderators.

2. You could have rules preventing anyone from having moderator powers on more than a certain percentage of the site.

3. The best change would one that prevented moderators from sitting in IRC/Discord talking about reddit 24/7. Having so much meta-discussion happen "behind the scenes" is not good. The problem is that normal people who think "lol imagine having drama over an internet forum what a load of nerds" would be the best moderators but are the least interested in doing it.
Why is it the expectation that the specific strain would be noted in the wild before the start of a pandemic? Is there precedent for such a thing?

Even if that is true, it doesn't change the point.
It may just be that they went looking for covid cases there and found them. If they looked around the institute they may have found clusters there too.
My main complaints about MIDI are that:

A) The full protocol seems to be proprietary to some degree. To access the official specs, I believe you need to be a paying member. There are other sources, but this is not an ideal state of affairs.

B) The current protocol seems to be composed of dozens of random accretions on top of the original protocol. Various extensions are only sporadically supported, so in effect you typically don't have any more capability than the simplest version of the protocol anyway.
She wasn't just involved in Ukraine. Was involved in Libya as well

Your basic problem here is that you're confusing "trying to get involved" with "actually being involved and affecting events in a significant way".

In short, the idea that Nuland's shenanigans did anything to move the needle on the ground is utter BS -- fodder for leftwing opinion websites in some Western countries, but not something that anybody in Ukraine takes seriously.
> and knowing you can shrink it if you are wrong

You can’t just shrink it. That’s the problem. They still think of it as a factory where everyone is just a robot.

Most places lack enough documentation and processes that shrinking the teams reduce knowledge. There is never an even distribution of skill sets etc. You kill off team dynamics. It’s not the same.

You can’t just slot people in and out without impact in software.
Most serverside processors will only compile pages once they're hit and cache thz results. As the xkcd goes "there's a lot of caching"
Too much overhead, too little benefit. No one ever really cared about it.
In a sense releasing things like they have is testing. It just doesn't seem like tests because they haven't had to pull anything back. They should have had to though. If people heeded Stallman's warnings, nobody would have continued to support Apple after they launched the iPhone without third party apps (other phones had them) or when they launched third party apps with no sideloading. The world would be much better for it.
I reject any premise that free/reasonable programmatic access is dichotomous to profitability.

Just as Devs are forced to resolve bugs in their code, business people should sort out the bugs in their balance sheet.

These decisions are being made now not due to profitability concerns, they're being made due to the lack of backlash from the tech community and laziness.

"Oh? Elon start charging extortionate rates for the heavily restricted API & Zuck gets away with throwing his legal weight around at OSS Devs and nobody bats an eye? Cool, we'll do the same thing!"
How would it be in userland? You need to communicate directly with devices?
I've set a screen time limit of 1 minute per day. It's enough to be annoying unless I end up there from a Google search.

For the time being I'm just going to reallocate my Reddit time to reading about my hobbies.
My life optimisation tricks:

>I think there's a fundamental conflict, in that these network effect businesses are terrible as for-profit businesses.

Firing the VP isn't the goal, in fact it's detrimental to it. The goal is to make others think that the company is doing "good" by its employees and society, so we ignore the company's mis-steps.
Bills like 5670-d that effectively made the Russian language illegal in most aspects of public life.

Nope, that's not what it does. It really not helpful to post opinion-piece fodder like this -- which you obviously haven't made even minimal effort to fact-check.
Non-GPU PCI cards. A lot are I/O for audio and other scenarios.

I have something similar, albeit maybe not quite as bad as you. Most of my far past is just vague sweeping notions or basic facts of what happened, and a still mental image here and there, and whatever I recorded in my journals and old chat logs and forum posts when I reread them.

Which is what I'd recommend to you, if you'd like to have some of that memory. I go through phases where I'm a lot better about journaling my life as it's happening, and I tend to remember those more easily (or go 'oh yeah!' when I reread them). But I also like taking pictures to help me remember, which it sounds like you explicitly don't.

I've been using the vacation we just got back from yesterday to get back into the habit of writing a journal, and I still need to write up the last few days, and will need to soon because it will fade fast.

I thought that other people had much better memories than I did, because they always were able to tell such great stories. But I rarely tell my own stories, meanwhile some of these people that seem to have great stories I hang out with them and realize they're telling the same stories over and over again, to just about everyone they meet. I suspect the telling of those stories so many times is helping keep those memories alive. If you don't share them somewhere (at least to a journal), the memories wither and die.

Unless you're someone with a photographic memory, of course.
Twitter was a public company in 2019. VCs has nothing to do with it.

What’s a good method for semi real-time, multi process, and multi hardware port synchronization, in user space? All of the real-time kernel code I’ve worked on wasn’t possible 15 years or so. Are there some new user space hooks?
If we think we don't care about Reddit because we don't use the site, we should probably care. The future of Reddit may have a wide-ranging impact on the future of the Internet as a whole. Will content be created and consumed in walled gardens, or easily linked? Will AI-generated content flood forums and stifle meaningful discussion? Will moderation become an AI task instead of a human task?

The Reddit protest does not stand alone and is not caused by u/spez or Reddit management or whatever. There is a vastly broader context here. What will be the lasting effects of a migration away from Reddit, or of a management change, or of a structural change in how this and other websites are administered?

I couldn't care less about Reddit because I don't use it and don't like the posts and discussion on there. At the same time, I do care, because I know many of the Reddit users and moderators are also probably going to end up here, and for the above reasons.
He was grandfathered in at a 95% discount?

Yeah, I don't believe it. Go back and read his posts from 5+ years ago when Imgur went from $25/mo to $250/mo for 7.5 million requests.

You are telling me he is still grandfathered on a plan from over 5 years ago? As one of their heaviest API users? (probably)

That was 5+ years ago, it's only gotten more expensive.

Also, he implemented a caching system that saved some 18 million requests (I think 90%, forget off the top of my head).

But he'll never talk about how even if he's being completely honest, he's getting an INSANE deal from Imgur.

The same plan today would cost $3.3K to Reddit's $12K. But he'd never tell you that.
Even if it didn't damage any equipment (which seems unlikely), it would still likely shut down most of the power grid, which would shut down most of the power plants, since they would have nowhere to sink they're output energy. Cold booting the energy grid could take months, during which most of the country would be without power.
Here's a quick solution if this bothers you:

Open the `/etc/hosts` in your favorite editor (vim).

Enter this line:

A) You just need to sign up with an email address. The docs are free. If you don't want to do that, you probably know someone who has access.

B) There's a new binary protocol and a new pseduo JSON-rpc framework on top. If you read the free documents you would not come away with this conclusion.

We're a long way removed from sending 7-out-of-8 bit messages along 3 feet of cable with optocouplers doing our decoding. It's like a weekend of work to write a MIDI 2.0 decoder for a massive amount of benefit. And it's transport agnostic.

My guess it that is got killed because it sounds like an advertisement. A better format would be "Hi, I am x. I have built a devtool for y. I build it because the current tools sucks at z. The one feature I like the most in my tool is q."

After reading your pitch I am still not sure what technologies and audience your devtool are for and what problem it tries to solve.

Surely you realize that window tint and guns are 2 completely different things, and that tint can't be taken out simply before entering a city when it's embedded in the window glass by the manufacturer right?
Kherson was left as it was right before the retreat just like other cities and towns.

Only because they were routed (and the whole front in that region collapsed, basically) so quickly that they didn't have time to roll out the usual scorched-earth tactic that is their calling card.

Ok that os where the analogy breaks down I guess. In the stock market the “idiots” don’t lose their money, they just get below average returns.

> I prefer websites and the option to open tabs for later browsing

The number of times I lost a post because when I switched app or didn’t use my phone for a while reddit would just reset to the home page… I think they really didn’t realize how much the shitty UX would enrage people against them.
