How do I study operating systems(CS subject) as a Linux systems administrator?
As I said I've my FE license coming up as well as I'm a Linux Systems Administrator. Now, I want to learn operating systems(a cs subject) from the depth of it.

I'm following 3 different books (I hate tanenbaum)

- William Stallings

- Deitel et al

- Galvin et al

Out of them deitel is best. But my goal is to learn each line written in the book and I'm not satisfied with myself. I want to gain a lot of knowledge. But it's not happening. Please guide me a bit.

Arguably, Unity could survive without the game engine -- they just need to survive the consolidation of the mobile ad business. Many companies already used Unity Ads without using Unity engine, even moreso after the acquisition / near merger with Ironsource. That acquisition was entirely about staying a step ahead of the consolidation wave, and nothing to do with the engine.

Of course, while that idea may be arguable it's also absolutely idiotic. But I won't be at all surprised if Unity continues to steer in that direction, especially now that the Ironsource people comprise a large part of the company.
Fed it into bing-ai and basically said either Day After Tomorrow or Interstellar, or a bit of both. I mean, its definitely NOT good.

My biggest concern is the AMOC collapsing, everything I've read about that says its gonna be a rough weekend when that happens.

From Bing Chat:

A warmer and lighter Gulf Stream could affect the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, which is a large-scale system of ocean currents that transports heat and nutrients around the globe. A slowdown or collapse of this circulation could have drastic effects on regional and global climate, such as cooling Europe, altering rainfall patterns, and changing ocean productivity2.

A closer Gulf Stream could alter the coastal ocean dynamics and ecosystems along the East Coast of the United States. It could increase coastal erosion, flooding, and storm surges by raising sea level and intensifying waves3. It could also affect marine life by changing water temperature, salinity, and nutrient availability. Some species could benefit from warmer waters, while others could face habitat loss or competition from invasive species4.

A changing Gulf Stream could also influence the weather and climate of both North America and Europe. It could modify the jet stream, which is a band of fast-moving air that steers weather systems across the continents. A weaker or more variable jet stream could lead to more extreme weather events, such as heat waves, droughts, floods, and storms2. It could also affect the paths and intensity of hurricanes, which draw energy from the warm water of the Gulf Stream5.

This does seem like a really neat trick I have not heard of before. I am still confused about moving the gap in the line-tracking buffer. It seems to me the only way you could make look-up O(1) is if you updated all the line indexes you passed over when you moved the gap. Because they are pointing to absolute positions (right?). So moving the line-tracking gap would technically be O(n), but you couldn't use memmove, and instead would need to iterate over one and add or subtract the gap size. Am I misunderstanding?

"Data" isn't the plural of "anecdote" -- you can systematically test things, as the authors of the study the article reports did, or you can say "I tried something and got result ~X, therefore LLMs cannot X", which is my honest understanding of what I've heard people say repeatedly.

I have to say that this is one of the most frustrating things about the institution of criminal law. Knowledge of Bayes’ theorem, and statistics more broadly, already exists within our culture. Yet this fallacy continues to be applied in court, leading to horrific miscarriages of justice.

Why can’t we just solve this problem? Educate judges in basic statistics, appoint court statisticians for more complex cases, and allow judges to hold people in contempt of court for trying to make these kinds of statistically fallacious arguments.

Hot take, but I think it would have been fine financially. Would the online consumers and even media drag it through the mud? Definitely. But I reckon console gamers have less than a 10% chance in correctly predicting some f2p model would crash and burn.

Now I can't say if it'd be more profitable than selling as premium, because it didn't target mobile and that is the real market for that monetization. But I doubt it would have crashed.

I just moved away from a similar situation in SE Tennessee: multiple properties share "the same address" along the same road because this state highway passes through a city, then county, then a different city.

My former property (a duplex) had the same repeat addresses as a financial advisor, health spa, and post office. Many people showed up over the years, looking for such services from a decrepit 100 year old cabin located miles away from their intended destination.

yes, queries and also planning.

For instance, given the user "ask" (which could be any generic message in a copilot), decide how to query one or multiple storages. Ultimately, companies and users have different storages, and a few can be indexed with vectors (and additional fine tuned models). But there's a lot of "legacy" structured data accessible only with SQL and similar languages, so a "planner" (in the SK sense of planners) could be useful to query vector indexes, text indexes and knowledge graphs, combining the result.

The issue isn't knowing which way a connector goes; the problem is that some people act like gorillas and try to use brute force to force connectors into place, and then don't understand why it's broken.

Normal people will try to push a plug in with a normal amount of force, find it doesn't fit, then realize they're doing it wrong and try something different. (Or in the case of USB-A, turn it over and try again, find that's wrong too, then turn it over yet again and find it fits perfectly.) But there's some sector of the populace that just doesn't seem to understand how much force is appropriate for things like delicate electronic connectors. I'll bet that if you took a tour of their homes, you'd find many other broken and beat-up things too.
The PS/2 connector was just a mini version of DIN connectors from the mid 1900s. They were sometimes used for printers and floppy drives in place of wider parallel connectors. In general, once you knew where ‘up’ was you could figure out the orientation in a way that is still more intuitive than USB. XLR cables are similar and still widely used, but have more external cues as to their orientation.

That's not true. I would guess the vast majority of consumers would at least slightly prefer that the tax be included in the display price. The problem is those consumers aren't an organized interest group, whereas retailers are. It's not a "cultural preference"--it's just the inability of the political system to address large but diffuse problems.

> However one group proposes something that benefits marginalized people

Do they? A lot of the benefits of DEI policies are simply more quotas for people who were already well off and capable of gainful employment, where it's more inter-elite competition than anything.

But what of the actually underprivileged? I can't fathom a way in which forbidding teachers from keeping order in class (because discipline problems are unevenly distributed, and thus racist - I wish I was kidding) helps actual minority kids from genuinely underprivileged situations. Instead, the teachers are mandated to aid and abet the very dysfunctions that keep them down.

Or what's shown in this tweet? https://twitter.com/FreeBlckThought/status/17085822241767754...

Active recommendation that "Schools should NOT 'encourage students to change their behavior or families to do more things that were like white families do, like reading to their children or adopting a growth mindset'"

These are upper class ideologues adopting nice-sounding, feelgood ideas, inflicting them on genuinely underprivileged people, and won't themselves have to pay for the consequences of these beliefs. The poor black kids will pick up the tab.

A friend of mine commented on the video that: "People who really, actually hate minorities and want to destroy their children's futures must feel so frustrated that teachers' unions, Ed schools, and school bureaucracies have left them with nothing more to do. Clearly, the point of education is to keep kids doing what they were already doing that was working so well."

These very same education people will, if asked, swear that poverty causes dysfunctions and bad outcomes, but we should never ever try to drag people out of those dysfunctions.

This is what I meant above: The politics are the point, and this shit is a disaster, as far as I can tell. I couldn't imagine better policies to tear people down if I tried. And the teaching establishment gets lauded for it.

And this is just the stuff disguised as kindness, or born of misplaced kindness. It's not getting into the actively hateful side of their culture, because they have carte blanche to spread hate, if the target is right.
I can't think of any situations where a roundabout isn't preferable to a two way stop, if space allows for the installation. In my opinion they're often safer than traffic lights too, due to drivers feeling less need to beat the light changes.
I think usefulness is a different question than capabilities. "LLMs can't do X" is an interesting claim, and it takes some level of systematic work to make it. If the capability exists at all, this is interesting, even if it's not useful. That being said, it doesn't mean such an existing capability will not prove useful. If something is fallible, it might be above a threshold worth using, it might be improved by doing the same techniques that are already being used, or it might be improved by adding on some sort of system to filter or refine responses.

> you can only know that an answer is correct when you already know it, and that's not very useful at all.
