Teddy is a SIMD accelerated multiple substring matching algorithm. There's a nice description of Teddy here: https://github.com/BurntSushi/aho-corasick/tree/f9d633f970bb...

It's used in the aho-corasick and regex crates. It now supports SIMD acceleration on aarch64 (including Apple's M1 and M2). There are some nice benchmarks included in the PR demonstrating 2-10x speedups for some searches!
Hopefully it was just a mistake.

Like maybe the roll out was mucked up by some middle-managers and didn't get a proper review?

Or some newbies in management didn't understand 'install' versus 'purchase'.
I'd be concerned if that process involves anything like grinding or cutting to shape. Particularly with alpha-emitter nuclides, things that otherwise are harmless and inert might become less so when there's inhalable dust involved.

> It's hard to look at America and not draw the conclusion that federalism is a major mistake. So many problems downstream from fickle localities.

The "fickle localities" that share sovereignty with the federal government is a tradeoff between efficiency and resilience. Totalitarian places can ignore localities and push huge national projects. China now has the world's longest high-speed rail system; but the same country lost 40-80 million people not even a century ago due to huge national projects that didn't pan out so well, under Mao.

The US has one of the highest median incomes in the world; among the top 5, by any measure. It's hard to understand why anyone would look at the system of governance in the US and call it a major mistake.

You could save quite a bit on the motherboard and CPU/cooler if you want to cripple that part of the system.
What I meant was, almost all server operators on the internet have to support either IPv4-only or dual stack. It is still economic suicide to run an IPv6-only server, at least in most areas of the world. As long as you have to run IPv4 software as well and lease an IPv4 address, I would say you are not fully migrated to IPv6.
Yes. Other/smaller cities, college towns, etc. I'm sure some have taken the opportunity to move somewhere that looks more like rural--but I have to believe the lifestyle shift would be a bridge too far for most.
This is an interesting result, even though it seems to have arrived at the (edit: not!) same place sports nutritionists have been at for decades when it comes to the general population edit: 1g per kg. The things it says that I mostly hadn’t thought about or didn’t know:

1) older people are less efficient converting dietary protein into muscle, so they need 1.25g/kg

2) pregnant and lactating women obviously have higher needs, so they should eat up to 2g/kg!

3) children are doing a lot of growing, so they need 1.55g/kg

Americans get a lot of protein already in their diet (edit: for a sedentary lifestyle).

For the non-sedentary, I can say from experience (160lb, 5’10”, somewhat lean male) that eating 160g of protein spaced out in 4 meals (sports nutritionists also recommend spacing your protein intake out so that it’s consistently available) is actually pretty hard. You end up needing to eat a lot of chicken and eggs, unless you’re willing to go full-on body builder and start eating supplement shakes. Of course that’s while trying to keep a small calorie surplus — a lot of Americans are very overweight, and likely do eat more protein than they need because they eat more than they need of all the macronutrients.
I had never heard of this particular aspect of demanufacturing, that's fascinating. Do you know of any products where this was a deciding factor, or at least a major consideration? (I recognize you probably can't easily cite internal corporate documents)

It's interesting that you bring up Pennsylvania - nearly every regulation, law, whatever that affects cities is either only enforced for "cities of the first class" or cities of the first class are specifically excluded. There's only one first class city in PA and I'll give you three guesses which one it is. So essentially you end up with three sets of laws - 1) applies to all Pennsylvanians and typically have nothing to do with cities or how they work 2) applies only to Philadelphia 3) doesn't apply to Philadelphia but applies everywhere else.

You're actually making a good argument in favor of jdasdf's point. Just try to get a concealed carry permit in Potter County, and one in Philadelphia County, and see how different they are. Both completely legal because there's totally different laws in play for the same process.

The quality of search results I get from Google has seriously degraded over the past several years (I think about the time they decided to start interpreting my searches rather than just search for what I asked for). From my point of view, verbatim searches are more necessary now than ever before, to work around that issue.

I tried using verbatim searches to make Google decent for me again, but Google defines "verbatim" rather differently than I do.

My school had 30k students, including grad and doctoral students. When they gave students shell accounts, they tried to put them all onto a single Sequent box. They got my incoming class, the following, and anyone previous who asked for one onto that box. I’m pretty sure it had an /etc/password file, and would have had about 8-10k people on it.

After that they gave up. Even with aggressive ulimits it was too hard, and each new class was apportioned to a separate Sparc. Which was a shame because we learned an awful lot about Unix administration from users pranking each other, figuring out what they did and how they did it, protecting yourself and retaliating (some people would prank others without first protecting themselves).

Made it a lot harder chatting with people from other classes as well. For electives and humanities you weren’t always in classes with people your exact age. They could be ahead of you or behind.
> You would have to lock the file, or guarantee consistency in some other way.

I think the standard approach to atomicity is to copy, change the copy, then move that copy overwriting the original (edit: file moves are sorta atomic). Not perfect but generally works.

I agree that this approach is not good for a users directory, I'm just disagreeing that the reason it's not good is performance-related.

TV and radio stations can be used for passive radar. Passive radar is when you use existing radio sources as you illumination source and your radar system is listen-only. Stealth aircraft tend to be more visible on passive radar since passive is usually a longer wavelength that the aircraft was not designed for. You can even DIY a passive radar.

Lucas started digital effects with the original SW trilogy, changing the industry.

He then started digital capture and exhibition in the prequel SW trilogy, changing the industry.

He also built his own studio (Lucasfilm) which was the dream of all the 1970s New Hollywood filmmakers. He did it by himself, on the basis of pretty much original IP.

George Lucas is absolutely a visionary.

Also, the namesake of this mountain was forced to resign over the incident:

> Evans was forced to resign the governorship in 1865 for his role in instigating the Sand Creek massacre (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Evans_(Colorado_governor))

I'm kinda of surprised the mountain was named for him, given that. It looks like he only took office in 1862, but it looks like his daughter was married to a later governor, so maybe that had something to do with it.

Though I'm still generally opposed to changing long-established names, because of the annoyance and confusion it causes (and will forever cause). Very, very few people even know or care about the person anything was named after.

> Does it matter if psychologists have an incorrect understanding of neural evolution? One answer to this question is simple: We are scientists. We are supposed to care about true states of the world even in the absence of practical consequences. If psychologists have an incorrect understanding of neural evolution, they should be motivated to correct the misconception even if this incorrect belief does not impact their research programs.

The hallmark of an incorrect model in science is that it makes incorrect predictions about the natural world (experiment). What incorrect predictions has psychology made based on the incorrect triune-brain theory?

I'm going to guess zero, not because the model works, but because psychology has made no experimentally testable predictions based on it.

Red meat isn't "bad for you".

Love this, here are my lessons from Tiberian Dawn:

Invest in your economy early rather than on an early defense. Just survive the first wave.

I take out harvesters (vehicles) first which disrupts my enemies ability to purchase military equipment.

Artillery is a game changer but needs support from small arms and scouts to increase the "sight" or range which will trigger a response.

I target power plants second, which disrupts radar, slows production and most importantly disables air defenses.

Troops / units are most effective when micro-managed.

A fighting force with diversity almost always wins out over a force dominated by one unit type.

Knowing what direction your enemy will attack from is critical.

By the time you've built very advanced weaponry, you should have already won a conventional war.

Probe your enemy for base weaknesses before attacking.

Don't waste your time repairing, just build new.
Being single parent can also file for the deduction. Receiving supposal and child support after tax also encourages divorce, which also encourages the benefiting party not to go to work or do works that doesn't pay taxes. I'd say the current policy is more encouraging of divorce than two-parent household.

My wife and I just rewatched WarGames for the millionth time a few nights ago.

The level of cybersecurity incompetency in the early 80's makes sense; computers (and in particular networked computers) were still relatively new, and there weren't that many external users to begin with, so while the potential impact of a mistake was huge (which of course was the plot of the movie), the likelihood of a horrible thing happening was fairly low just because computers were an expensive, somewhat niche thing.

Fast forward to 2023, and now everyone owns bunches of computers, all of which are connected to a network, and all of which are oodles more powerful than anything in the 80s. Cybersecurity protocols are of course much more mature now, but there's also several orders of magnitude more potential attackers than there were in the 80s.
Shahed drones are big, slow, and have a notable radar signature. A lot of smaller drones are mostly cardboard and are hard to spot, both in terms of radar as well as Mk1 eyeball.

Smaller drones are a perfect use case for older systems like the Zhilka -- no need for a rocket.

Do you still call is Mt Rosalie, since that was its original name? 20 years from now it'll be an obscure trivia question.

There are no U.S. tax credits per se for married vs. unmarried taxpayers. Depending on the relative incomes of two spouses, there can be a so-called "marriage penalty" or "marriage reward" from combining two incomes on a joint return, but that alone probably has very little impact on whether people choose to get or remain married.

In fact, a large chunk of existing tax law deals with all the possible combinations of households with children and parents, where the parents may or may not be living together, and may or may not be married to each other. It is designed to fairly accomodate unmarried people, not to encourage marriage.

How do drones get around the issue of communications jamming? I suppose they have some way (autonomous would be one way), but it seems to me that if communications are cut off, having a pilot with human judgement to respond to changing conditions will almost always have some advantage. Although, you could get a pretty advanced autonomous system that responded to changes from a pre-programmed attack plan.
WRT to Ukraine, it's a mistake to think that competence at EW and incompetence at land warfare balance each other out when the fight is primarily land warfare. And you need to be better at the land warfare to win.

Also, the B21 is reported to be designed for remote control. And that's the sort of thing you put the really big weapons on. I understand the idea behind reducing attack surface. But the JSF is a hub of interconnected technology it's not unreasonable to think they don't have a software package for all sorts of remote options.

Part of me thought "this is fine as very few could actually download 38TB".

But that's not true as it's just so cheap to spin up a machine and some storage on a Cloud provider and deal with it later.

It's also not true as I've got a 1Gbps internet connection and 112TB usable in my local NAS.

All of a sudden (over a decade) all the numbers got big and massive data exfiltration just looks to be trivial.

I mean, obviously that's the sales pitch... you need this vendor's monitoring and security, but that's not a bad sales pitch as you need to be able to imagine and think of the risk to monitor for it and most engineers aren't thinking that way.

You could use a focused receiver to look for TV signals being emitted from an object thousands of feet in the air over (say) the ocean off the coast of California. Since you know there is no TV station antenna floating in the sky out there you know you are getting reflected rf from a plane.

Your receiver is "passive" - it doesn't emit a signal - so the attacking enemy has to find it visually. If the enemy bomb all the TV antennas then you need to emit your own signal to generate the reflection.
> You can have a cellar by/under a modern house just fine

The ease of that depends on where you live. I live in the southern US, so we don't have a frost line in the soil. Accordingly, most homes are built on post-tensioned slabs (newer) or conventional (older) foundations. There's also shrink-swell soil, so a poured concrete basement would crack (the slab floats on this, but walls would be harder to do). Just because of the topography of my lot, it would be hard to have an external cellar (and it definitely would not be as cool as those found in more northern climates).
I see another plausible explanation: The NSA is concerned with maintaining security of its own / the government's infrastructure / is interested in finding breaches in infrastructures of others.

Exactly. You really need experts in entity relationship data modeling (typically in Oracle DBMS), data hygiene, and codifying business rules. This isn't something web developers should generally take on. Software involving money should consider approximating the formality of engineering approaches: waterfall development model, formal verification, and extensive unit and integration testing. There are hidden costs that edge up TCO for DIY. It's possible COTS maybe very expensive or incapable of being customized sufficiently to meet the needs of the particular application, but DIY should generally be the last resort when no other viable solution exists.
