This is where zero knowledge federated learning comes in. Unfortunately, this is very much a tomorrow technology (it needs the infrastructure to support it). Why invest in privacy-preserving methods for training machine learning models tomorrow when you can steal users private information today (or even better, bully them into doing so by being the defacto VC that everyone needs to use because of network effects).

It is clearly written to not use the (F)WAIT instruction -- the "dumb" code is there to make sure the previous 80287 instruction has completed.

The first time wasting code is long because it has to be slower than the slowest 287 instruction takes to complete after signaling an error. The other time wasters are shorter because they come after known instructions that are faster (FNSTSW just stores 2 bytes to memory, FNCLEX clears some bits inside the 287). Note also that they are the FNSTSW and FNCLEX -- that means there is no implicit (F)WAIT instruction before the real 287 instruction.

Why two FNCLEX? I don't know.

Why 4 writes to port F0? Probably in case the FNSTSW and FNCLEX instructions lead to errors.

This is a non-sequitur. Sure that’s possible, and sure it’s case by case, and sure it’s nuanced.

What’s especially helpful to such nuanced and detailed debates is data. So my question is why isn’t data being brought out in support of the RTO argument?

Two pretty obvious potential reasons are that they don’t have data or the data doesn’t support the argument they’re making, which reflects rather poorly on management and their decision-making.

I’m personally skeptical of the explanation “they have the data and it supports their argument but they just don’t wanna show it to their employees as they beg them to come back to office.” Just makes a lot less sense than the other explanations IMO.

I've had a similar experience with tax preparers. I once decided to hire two different tax preparers, both of whom had good reviews and strong credentials. I naively assumed that I would spend an hour tops comparing the two returns side-by-side, and examining any small differences between them.

What ended up happening was that both returns were so dramatically different, along many different dimensions. It took me nearly 40 hours to catalog all the different decisions made by each preparer, and which of the two decisions is the better one. Through this exercise, I realized that both preparers had made some major errors - and by reconciling them, I ended up saving more than $10,000, while also making my tax returns more resilient if audited.

I'm convinced that for any non-trivial decision in any field, the best way to make them is to hire multiple independent professionals, and cross-check their independent recommendations. And yes, this applies to software engineers as well.

I just got into Triton station, and there's loads of interesting posts on it about MOND and dark matter.
This post is really just saying errr, no there is no problem:

"That sounds normal for this type of galaxy, but I guess if you disliked MOND without understanding it, you might misinterpret that title to mean there was no mass discrepancy at all, hence a problem for MOND. I guess. I’m an expert on the subject; I don’t know where non-experts get their delusions."

Still fun to read though.

After seeing some gameplay footage, this game seems more like a spiritual successor to Dragon Age: Origins than to Baldur's gate 1 & 2. Of course Dragon Age was intended as a spiritual successor to Baldur's gate back when it was released. Even the hype is very similar to Dragon Age: Origins, and how journalists were surprised that an "old school" RPG like this could be so popular.

Unfortunately I have an anecdote, but is also a concern.

I had a tooth pulled. Could have been a root canal, but whatever. (Insert sob story)

The real problem was that this dentistry was quietly affiliated to the local university's dental school. Many of the students end up here. The problem, is that the dentistry IS NOT UPFRONT this is a teaching business, and not actual professionals.

I found it out when I was digging through unrelated records in GIS, and found they were legally registered as a school. Dug deeper, and they're basically misrepresenting and lying to the public.

So yeah, keep this scam in mind as well. (I call it a scam cause I wasn't getting student rates, and they did their damndest to hide that.)
In my case, it was just discomfort rather than pain, the worst bit was having a metal 'temporary crown' that felt/tasted uncomfortable and wouldn't stay in place over the mostly-drilled-away tooth for a week or more while the crown was being manufactured. And I couldn't stop myself from constantly probing it with my tongue. (This was over a decade ago, maybe the process is quicker, or they have better temporary crowns?)

But the tooth had had a root canal done some years before the crown, so there was no nerve to cause pain when/after much of the tooth was drilled away to prepare for the crown. Not sure what the process is if the tooth is healthier/more sensitive to begin with.

End result is good though. Just not something I'd choose to go through it if was mostly cosmetic rather than to save a tooth.

As my former firearms instructor put it: "If a bad guy ever schedules a meeting on your calendar to mug you.. you should decline and not show up. Otherwise since bad guys don't usually book ahead, always be prepared."

One of the things we train people is that just because you can carry a firearm doesn't mean you should go places you normally wouldn't. If you consider a place too dangerous to go to normally, having a firearm doesn't change that.

I mentioned many other great games in this genre which were lucky to have 1/100th of the success of this game. But okay, those didn't have the multiplayer, or the presentation, or the accessibility.

But Larian's previous game was extremely similar to this one in all respects. It's not even that flippant to say BG3 is DOS2 with the lore and rules swapped for DnD ones which isn't that much of a practical difference (I'd argue a slight downgrade). And yet BG3 is on track to be maybe 4x as successful. It's hard to argue the BG and DnD brands didn't play a big part in this.
JetBrains's IntelliJ and friends do that with language plugins. They detect the language according to keywords and patterns and are able to do highlighting and intellisense for multiple languages in a single file.

Dental implant while costly are wonderful if you have sufficiently dense jawbone, they feel like a real teeth.

My dentist also told me that tooth extraction is a last-ditch effort. But that come sooner than you would like; after one rounds of antibiotics, if the pain come back but there are no apparent mechanical defect in the tooth yet the roots are blurry on the x-rays, the probability that a root canal treatment would be successful is quite small and extraction followed by an implant is your best bet.
> Annotation / Edit / Extend

It's weird — we, the builders of HTTP-based APIs, very well understand the concept of "REpresentational State Transfer" ...but I've never seen a web-app server that actually accepts PUT or PATCH or POST of HTML Content-Type against the baked-out server-rendered HTML views, such that if you were to push a modified version of said representational state (the post-edit HTML), it would get "decompiled" on the backend into a delta of the internal state (e.g. Markdown in a CMS), and that change to the internal state would get persisted, reflecting back as a change in the representational state when the page is fetched.

If anyone would just actually implement that on a web-app backend, then you'd be able to "annotate, edit, and extend" HTML-presented content using freakin' NSCA Mosaic from 1993. Or the "edit in Frontpage" feature of IE4.

(No modern equivalents, though — the features that would generate a "native" browser PUT or PATCH against an HTML page have since shrivelled up and died, after it became clear that no server would ever bother to allow them.)

To dodge the chicken-and-egg problem of browser support, you could do this today, with a Javscript SPA serving the browser role: the frontend app would ensure that it's reflecting all internal state changes in its in-memory client-side internal state into changes to the HTML (even if those changes don't cause any presentation changes on the client side); and then, where a regular SPA would push those changes by calling an API endpoint that accepts a version of its in-memory client-side internal state, this SPA would just push the updated HTML, as a PUT or PATCH to the very same URL that was loaded to deliver the SPA.

I’m not the people you are responding to, but I’ll share my take as a dev who buys some tools and turns my nose at the others.

The difference is - whether it’s a purchase or a subscription.

I’ll happily buy a tool, and happily will buy upgrades every so often.

I will absolutely resist paying for subscriptions unless you are delivering some sort of continuous service and I won’t be fooled by gimmicky cloud integrations just to make that claim.
With respect, your assumption here reads like a line from arrested development: “how much can a banana cost, $10?”

I really don’t think you have any idea of not the costs of these things, every penny counts with hardware products because any amount increases the marginal cost by at least 1.5x, vs software where it is so low it is effectively zero. I can get a very beefy STM32 for sub $10 at low quantities (sub $5 at > 1000) and toss all the passives and connectors needed for an extra $2-$4 the PCB may cost $1-$5, and you might be at $10-$15 depending on volume. You also can pre buy components that are known run out or design the board to accept different MCUs incase of shortages. With the RPi, you are totally SOL if you cannot find them, with your company being at the tail end of a, now, know volatile supply chain with a company you cannot get guaranteed fulfillment contracts with.

Your assumption about power is also very divorced from the reality of the situation, battery performance is not so easily calculated when your battery is not in clean room conditions, these scooters are subjected to extreme conditions and abuse, all of which can affect the battery. Additionally, It is disingenuous to consider only the operating parameters because it does run a full Linux system and software you load into it creates non-deterministic (at least with current models) situations where new software can skyrocket the power consumption. They also ideally have a separate battery from the drive motors so it can call for help and a tech can collect the scooter for maintenance.
Yet it is 3rd largest indeed, if you want to compare per capita levels just divide by population but then completely unexpected countries (as well as a few expected like Switzerland), come out on top.
Seeing that this article ran in 1997 originally, someone ought to build a website that lists this type of information or experiences for the type of care you're looking to get in your area.

I've had similar experiences that make me never want to go to a dentist again because these new practices are so detached from reality. They only care about what is covered by your insurance and will deceive you with non-answers to maximize it.

I've also had experiences where one dentist will tell me I have a cavity and I'll get it checked out by another dentist who cannot confirm. These types of things need some type of tally from the public so others don't let these money-grabbers get off scot free.
You'll quickly discover when you enter the workforce that the reasons we have CI/CD, Docker, and virtualization are because of a similar problem. The dread "it works on my machine" response.

CI/CD forces people to codify exactly how to build and deploy something in order for it to get into a production environment. Docker and VMs are ways around this by giving people a "my machine" that can be copied and shared easily.
"Hybrid" means "you don't even know when you'll be required to come to the office".

> 36-bit PDP-10s, which supported bytes of width 1-36 bits.

I thought they only supported (some) elements of bit sizes that divided 36, but http://www.hakmem.org/pdp-10.html#Byte thought me:

“In the PDP-10 a "byte" is some number of contiguous bits within one word. A byte pointer is a quantity (which occupies a whole word) which describes the location of a byte. There are three parts to the description of a byte: the word (i.e., address) in which the byte occurs, the position of the byte within the word, and the length of the byte”
