I wonder how much of the stability is the extreme reluctance to do any upgrades or touch anything related to that mainframe code. In my experience with larger institutions using mainframes, its largely "code freeze, do not mess with it".

I wonder if this is a consequence of the stability, or a cause of it? Modern tech stacks are always upgrading components underneath to remain modern and frequency of changes cause instability no matter how hard you try. Not really any meaningful tooling to get around that yet
I love this project but I really wish there was an alternative in Linux to using webkit. It's just not a particularly compelling browser engine for me.

I'd love a developer centric blog post on the plugin system that leads this roadmap post. Sounds like it's already mature. Having 2-3 examples of it in use, and an example of diy-ing something new (maybe do an ambient light sensor or something) would be rad & mad helpful.
The point here is not mainly focused on athletes ability to make money off of their work, although that is a part of it. The issue in this particular instance is that players are being bribed to switch teams.
Skyscrapers can be beautiful. Personally, I really like seeing more plants incorporated into them. Roofs with lush gardens and scapes, plants growing along the sides.
Agreed, there was a long time when the olympics were for amateurs only.
But they get paid with an education! /s

What I want to see is higher education have their tax free status stripped and their endowments taxed as a total percentage (like property tax).

Both for creating the student loan mess and for having this ridiculous sports system that uses athletes as chattel.

The gold jewellery made from old phones
If you plant a forest where there was no forest before, then while individual trees will die, the entire forest will capture carbon dioxide proportional to its biomass.

Forests will typically grow for years-decades, and absorb carbon dioxide throughout, till their biomass (per km^2) reaches an equilibrium point. At that point the forest will go from a carbon sink to carbon neutral (averaged over several years to account for forest fires and subsequent regrowth).
They really should let folks skip the ‘school’ charade if the athlete wishes like the NBA’s G League (or go straight pro). Some use it for the education, & that scholarship can be great for those without the means otherwise, but a lot of college sports is just a cash grab for universities on the talent & training of its athletes (thankful NIL actually happened for those kids). The halfback market would see the greatest benefit to this too as they are seen as worn tire treads by the age of 24 wasting a lot of the positions most valuable years in college where they are not getting anywhere near the pay they’d see in the NFL as they are just used for their cheap rookie contract, franchise tagged, then often tossed in the trash (see: Jonathon Taylor, Saquon Barkley, Josh Jacobs, et al.).

The big schools make money on football.

Many midsize schools, including state schools, lose money in football. Being a mid tier team in Conference USA or the Mountain West is much much less lucrative than the SEC or ACC.

Because they knew it was that good. They also had first mover advantage. They probably said, "Well, if even 1% of everyone with an iPad buys our app…" and actually knew that would happen. They rock.
Scaling gopls for the growing Go ecosystem
The author does mention that you should probably stop at using Threads and passing data around via channels... but then mentions the C10K problem and says that sometimes you need more... but does not answer the question that I think is begging to be asked: does using Rust async with all the complications (Arc, cloning, Mutex whatever) does actually outperform Threads/channels?? Even if it does, by how much? It would be really interesting to know the answer. I have a feeling that Threads/channels may be more performant in practice, despite the imagined overhead.

The F-22's engine are not as good as the F-35 engine. It gets around that by simply being a larger plane and having a second engine.

Both modern fighter jets and airliners use turbofan engines, the difference is the bypass ratio (hence the size of the bypass blades). For both low and high bypass, Chinese engines are supposedly better than Russian engines. They aren't better than Western engines but they're not that far apart. As far as airliners, the airliner engine is a different design from the WS-20 because of different requirements. It started development far later than the WS-20 and it has been flight tested after only 5 years, which isn't bad at all.
Turns out that "women can work" quickly devolved into "women must work". The curious part is that if you go further back in history, to when most of the population were peasant farmers, it was more the case of "everyone must work" (children too), and house work was nothing like today's. The average 1950's housewife did not have to kill chickens to make soup.

Couple this with the fact that nowadays couples have less children in average and you start to get the picture. If now two people work (vs 1) to have one child (vs 5) that will get the same (vs better) quality of life than their parents then you have on average become poorer.

I can't help but feel we have been duped.
Indeed, I see that Lafont's 1990 paper introduces 'input' and 'output' denominations under Section 2 "Type Discipline".

> The choice of an input/output denomination is purely conventional: it does not matter if you call input what I call output, and conversely, but we must agree on matching. [...] typing ensures local correctness of computations

It seems to me that the input/output convention is really just one particular type system, orthogonal to the essential idea of Interaction nets or Interaction combinators. Indeed if iNet requires such a typing discipline, then nets like Interaction combinators cannot be implemented.
"One X user responded by saying that their small business missed out on more than $2,000 worth of sales due to the outage, during what is the biggest month of the year for the company"

Ouch...that's sad.

And they say cause of outage not yet known...unknown, or not yet reported/shared with the public?
Curious as a non dev, could this equally have been on vercel or netlify or does this type of app lend itself to fly?
MLIR – Using Traits
> With ARC, you know exactly when you will release your last reference and that's when the resource is freed up.

It's more like "you notice when it happens". You don't know in advance when the last reference will be released (if you did, there would be no point in using reference counting).

> In terms of performance, ARC offers massive benefits because the memory that's being dereferenced is already in the cache.

It all depends on your access patterns. When ARC adjusts the reference counter, the object is invalidated in all other threads' caches. If this happens with high frequency, the cache misses absolutely demolish performance. GC simply does not have this problem.

> There's a reason people like ARC and stay away from GC when performance actually begins to matter.

If you're using a language without GC built in, you usually don't have a choice. When performance really begins to matter, people reach for things like hazard pointers.

Obviously the companies should act in a moral fashion, and not violate your right to life, liberty, or the pursuit of happiness. But buying an Android phone isn’t breaking any of the 10 commandments, or these companies aren’t causing you to do that, so all good there.

It's hard to know what to think here. I really don't like or care about college sports at all. Most of the debate tends to focus on how the kids are "exploited" because they're not paid while the coaches, administrators, and schools make a huge amount of money on the unpaid athletes. The general remedy seems to be that people want the athletes to be paid. This seems backwards to me. What does a sports team have to do with a university? Why are they even associated? The athletes get a free ride, and often don't really engage in much education. Why are they even there? And why are the coaches paid well at all? It seems like an enormous waste of money.

It seems like the better solution would be to stop taking in so much money from the sport _and_ keep the athletes unpaid. If this isn't possible, it seems best to wholly separate the teams from the schools.
ueah bur his reason was that allowing the attack would have triggered a russian response with even more deaths. musk thought the response would be nuclear and then ww3 but most likely would have been some rocket attack in a cafe, etc. like few days ago.

College football was once more popular and made more money than the NFL. If it wasn't for the absolute mismanagement by the NCAA, Disney/ESPN, and various big money stakeholders College Football would still be more popular and make more than the NFL.

That shouldn't be surprising, as in some areas the local college team is the only professional sporting event around.

It is a damned shame that they couldn't come up with a better system than the NIL. Yes all the players should be making money, but it should be done in a manner that benefits all players.

There's nothing buggy about a future that never yields because it can always make progress, but people prefer that a runtime doesn't let all other execution get starved by one operation. That makes it a problem that runtimes and schedulers work to solve, but not a bug that needs to be prevented at a language level. A runtime that doesn't solve it isn't buggy, but probably isn't friendly to use, like how Go used to have problems with tight loops and they put in changes to make them cause less starvation.
I don't think React ever pitched view as a function of state actually. Many in the community latched onto that, and some React-inspired projects tried to make that a thing, but I'm positive that was never the pitch from the core team, in fact very certain of this.

Lifecycles existed since the first version, and they were always absolutely critical. Hooks just fixed many of their issues and made them more elegant, composable, and simple to write.
If you get the book thrown at you, you will lose without exception.

It's real, and inspectors are wise to it, but I guess the subtle acknowledgement that perfection is impossible goes a long way. A lot of "lower risk" inspections are very old-timey/human. You won't get away with it in an aerospace inspection, but somebody looking over the job site or kitchen is playing by different rules.
Manufacturing tolerances are a significant factor in power density for the last two battery chemistries. And when manufacturers have gotten ahead of themselves, there have been lawsuits about laptop and cellphone fires.

Big sloppy batteries have wider safety margins and uninspiring performance. The safety margins and avoiding toxicity in manufacturing can eat up gobs of the “potential” for a battery chemistry. For years or indefinitely.
You have completely missed the point. The definition of “tolerance” you quoted uses the word “tolerate”. What does “tolerating a behavior” mean?

“Tolerating a behavior” means taking or not taking some action in response to a behavior. The crux of the “paradox” is that the condition and action are wholly undefined resulting in a nebulous mushy concept battle.

As soon as you define, even vaguely, the conditions and actions you wish to use as “tolerating”, the “paradox” disappears. The examples I provided are there to illustrate the concept using a relatively simple condition/action model.

I am not imposing a definition beyond defining what constitutes a “concrete” description. I literally could not care less what you choose.

You can choose the definition that you want that is infinitely favorable to your perspective and the paradox will still disappear. I do not even need to agree with your definition. The mere act of defining causes the paradox to disappear (or be trivially inconsistent) in your own axiomatic model as far as I can tell.

The paradox of tolerance is just the paradox of being too lazy to define your words so you can move the goalposts.

I think with stackful coroutines you lose low-overhead interoperability with C. Also, it possible to use stackless coroutines without introducing async/await 'colors'.
> Async/await is here to stay and is the right abstraction, git good, and it's not even difficult to use anyway.

It's probably the right abstraction for Haskell, or any other language that works well with functional programming, lambdas and monads. Loom is a better fit for Java. Rust also would have probably been better off with something else. Effect handlers might have been a good choice.
The fact that Bun has taken VC funding [0] (through Oven, the company behind Bun) makes me skeptical. There is also no mention of this on the project's homepage.

315,000 tons of CO2 over 10 years, so 31,500 tons per year.

40 billion tons of CO2 per year will be created globally by 2030.

So Microsoft's deal will remove 0.00007875 percent of globally emitted CO2 on an annual basis.

This process would have to be scaled up by 1,269,841 times to capture all emitted CO2, neglecting the increased CO2 emissions associated with the scaling itself.

That seems like a lot of work just to enable humans to increase our numbers and consumption on a finite planet.

Can someone please remind me why more people consuming more resources is a given?
It's easy to lose sight of the fact that it's been like this for the vast majority of American history. The only change is the mechanism.

Usually they try to obscure this state of affairs. When the veil breaks, their backup plan is enforcement, first through threats and then through laws and then, if necessary, through violence. We appear to be mostly in the "threats" stage.
> This sounds like the rant of a typical Linux fanboy

Hi, it's me the Linux fanboy whose entire personality is making Hackintosh and VM apps for iOS. Just a friendly reminder that attacks on the author's credentials have no baring on the weight of the arguments.

> The reason there is no explicit threat model defined in the TPM specs is because it defines a general-purpose hardware security module

It sounds like you have zero experience in security :)

> it defines a general-purpose hardware security module

No it doesn't. I think you're hinting at HSM which is another beast I may write another fanboy FUD piece about at some point. But no, HSMs are not the same as TPMs. And TPMs are not HSMs. For one thing, and HSM defines something called a trust boundary where keys should never leave. TPMs will happily hand you the keys when you meet a certain condition. HSMs support key migration and provides a secure way to transfer keys from one HSM to another without leaving the trust boundary. I can go on and on...

> TPM's security properties also depend on the rest of the system

The argument isn't TPM versus no security. The argument is TPM versus the existing security you have on Windows. (Passwords, FDE, etc). Of course all this depends on the system. TPM doesn't add anything (* with the exception already listed in the article).

> it at least opens the possibility of making it secure in the future once those vulnerabilities are discovered & fixed

Nope. Architecturally flawed. But I'd just be repeating the argument from the article.

> means a casual attacker can't just pull a drive or reboot the machine and run chntpw or steal sensitive data from discarded drives that haven't been properly wiped

They can with a $80 FPGA. Read the appendix.

> I like the fact that a rogue datacenter employee or intruder can't just pull one of my servers' drives out and get sensitive data.

They can with a $80 FPGA. (Unless your datacenter uses Intel TXT and tboot and other prerequisites that were talked about in the article)

> I like not having to worry about having sensitive keys on the filesystem somewhere

If you use BitLocker, they are always in kernel memory

> derived from the TPM doing remote attestation at boot

That's not what "remote attestation" means :)

> I like not having to worry about unattended reboots or entering LUKS passphrases remotely

If you like that, just disable your password and you'll get the same result
It's dumb if you don't understand it. Most people take it as a knee-jerk literal "take all the money from the police."

In practice most of the common explanations I've seen mean "take a lot of the money from the police and give it to people more qualified to do things that police are filling in for" — so things like social work, for example.

This would also benefit the police, because they could focus on stopping and investigating actual crime.

A common example... if there's a homeless, mentally ill, or otherwise distressed person rambling on the sidewalk in front of your house for an hour... in the US many people would call the police. This is a terrible application of force and innocent people have been shot this way.

With properly staffed and funded social workers, someone could theoretically call them first, and then that person if needed could decide to escalate.

So really "defund the police" in a pithy slogan — "reduce funding to the police so it can be directed to more purpose-fit response teams" doesn't quite roll off the tongue the same way.

This same criticism is levied towards "black lives matter" — some take it as "only black lives matter" (often intentionally despite having it explained to them). So the response is "all lives matter" but the general intent is actually "black lives matter as well." Earlier "vote or die" was sometimes criticized in a warped way of "vote or we'll kill you"

There's this strange insistence that political slogans be perfect or all-encompassing, which seems rather disingenuous.
> it appears to me that Americans do not hate working hard, they just hate working hard on academics

Not much machismo in academics but there's tons in sports and hard physical work. That's why truck/beer and other male oriented commercials never show someone reading a book, they show someone doing hard physical work or competing in a physical activity (edit: or getting laid). That's about all there is to it.

The daily dose of privacyguides forum dissing LibreWolf for unjustified [reason](https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/librewolf-browser-firefo...), while their recommanded "Brave" was delibrately a product to replace annoying ads with their own commercial ads and earn BAT crypto, built-in VPN, built-in Web3, wallet, whatever stuff...

Their opinion TLDR; no auto-updater (community auto-updater exists), no advantage to config Arkenfox.js by yourself (but why do I need to be a json geek to just use a browser?)

Feels like the elephant in the room here is...why can't the US military deploy Starlink capabilities themselves?

I wonder if it's in the US's pro-agrarian, anti-urban roots. Thomas Jefferson famously thought of America as an agrarian democracy, and you see this even today where "Main St", "the real America", "small town America", etc. are all callbacks to the nation's rural roots.
