Because the resolution is theoretically unbounded but decays exponentially if you don't do something stupid.

Two flip-flops in series is almost always enough to resolve the uncertainty.

However, I'm extremely skeptical of all the "metastability" fixes applied here. You only care about synchronizers when you change between unrelated clock domains.

Yes, the PDP-11 is before the advent of widespread knowledge about metastability. However, open-collector busses were not unusual at the time. Glitches were also understood. You set your logic transitions to cross boxes of your Karnaugh map correctly to avoid them. None of the given circuits seem to fix that at first glance, but I'd need to look at it in more detail.

I suspect the issue is that he is using flops instead of latches. Latches are level sensitive while flops are edge sensitive.

A lot of open-collector arbitration is more of something gets yanked down, you see something got yanked down so you also yank something down (this need to happen fast and is in hardware), then you release something if you don't have anything to say (this can happen slowly in software since you already yanked things and locked it), after everybody but one releases the bus arbitration is over and the winner can now proceed to use the bus.
When I was traveling abroad, I placed an order on Walmart, shipping to my home address, so that it would be there for me when I got back home. Walmart cancelled the order, "due to location restrictions on placing and shipping orders", even though the delivery address was in the US! I have no idea why the physical location of the computer placing the order should matter to Walmart. Eventually I just had to get my friend order for me.
There's plenty of land here in Wyoming. Houses, not so much. Finding someone to build a house or to do any work on anything is not easy. For that reason I don't think 400k could move here if they wanted to, at least not all at once. Some may not like the snow, cold weather half of the year and the wind east of the Rockies. Some of the people from the mountainous region of northern California may like it. Anyone moving here should be self sufficient and able to fix most things themselves. Some of this can be offset by getting to know all your neighbors and local community.

As a side note Netflix to my surprise released a decent albeit violent movie that shows some of this state called Wind River staring Jeremy Renner, Elizabeth Olsen, Jon Bernthal. (2017) Most of the mountain scenes were filmed in Utah. [1] I think it would be incredibly challenging to film the whole thing in the Wind River National Forest

Seems like the difference is in PPP vs Nominal. Numbers are hard. Matching the numbers:

US / EU / Europe:
Nominal [1]: 27.0 / 18.4 / 25
PPP [2]: 15.5 / 14.6 / 21

My point was that EU is higher than #6, as well as Germany, whatever the metric.

But, as I was corrected below, they meant "sixth" as share, not as rank.

You’d be surprised how little exemptions exist, but since I can’t prove a negative I’ll take whatever you have w/r/t these exemptions by western nations.

That said, as far as I know, martial law has only been declared at the federal level once, in 1863 during the Civil War, so I’m not sure what that has the do with anything.
Something that drives me absolutely bonkers is how laptops, phones, tablets, all treat brightness as a first class feature. But if you want to quickly adjust brightness on your desktop monitors, it’s intensely tedious or requires you to be tech savvy and install software.

Why programming languages matter [video]
Overhauling an engine every 2000 hours does not change that it is a 1960s design which relies on a very rich mixture and stupidly high octane fuels to not blow itself up to make what would today be very mediocre performance figures.

Rotax has some newer designs that are fuel injected, have modern piston head designs, and sometimes have turbochargers, and those represent what a "new" aircraft engine looks like.
Reading a review on booking.com today I have come across a strange thing: something that when translated by machine, says the opposite of what it says in the original language.

The phrase was: we didn't sleep too well; it was strange because it was the first sentence of a top-rated review. Why would someone give a top score to a place where they didn't sleep well?

But it was an (automatic) translation from French. The original French version was: on n'a super bien dormi.

That's incorrect: it should read on a super bien dormi, which means "we slept really well". But when said out loud it should sound like on na super bien dormi because the n at the end of "on" is supposed to create a "liaison" with the following "a" so that it's more fluid.

Yet, when written as "on n'a super bien dormi" then the extra "n'" could be construed as a negative -- most French native speakers will intuitively understand that it's not, it's just a spelling mistake; but the automatic translation machine doesn't (at least on booking.com: I just checked on Google Translate and it doesn't fall for it!)

This got me thinking: would it be possible to craft special texts that would mean one thing in one language, and a totally different thing when machine-translated in another language? That would be quite funny -- or terrifying, depending on the context.

By the word "conscious" we usually mean how most people would think about it as their subjective experience of being conscious, as opposed to being unconscious.

Personally I would say "being conscious" means that you are conscious of being conscious. Not just 'reacting" in some way to external stimuli.

You (or your sub-consciousness) can be "aware of" external stimuli. But being conscious (in my view) should refer to the internal experience of being aware that you are aware of something.

But back to the argument:

I loved the Radio Shack "kits" when I was young, built all kinds of things from radios to home security systems. It doesn't follow, for me, that radios and home security systems must be all made from kits.

Similarly, most consoles start as dev kits.

I think there's a place for kits, and a place for products.
That was interesting and not always what I’d have expected. Thanks! :-)
The point is if something looks too polished people assume that polish is all the way. You look at a polished chart different from a sketch. If I show you a napkin sketch of some new idea I have you understand it is new and not well thought out, thus you ask is the big picture idea correct. If instead the same idea is well polished in full color you think the big picture is correct and start looking at details that might need some adjustment. Depending on what sort of feedback you want, you need different types of drawing.
Sorry, what I ment to say was like an iron. Ironous is, like, iron.
It's more likely the other way around. For most grants I'm aware off universities can't charge overheads on equipment so a theoretician with lots of phd students brings in more overhead than an experimentalist that needs lots of equipment. Obviously the reality is much more complex, depending on country it's easier or more difficult to get funding as a theoretician (in the US it's supposedly much more difficult), theory groups are typically smaller, experimental research often results in more publicity... And all this really depends on the field.

I think pitting theory against experiments does not address the issues. The big problem IMO is that the funding systems are so competitive and at the same time (initially) have a large luck component, that it incentives short term, low risk research.
I modded an 80gb iPod Video / 5G with the same iFlash quad (400gb+ right now with two slots free)

I felt like I never had to charge the thing, so I just let it run. It went for just over 60hrs and still had 5% to go.
Both, I think. However I would also add that my understanding is second-hand, reading and watching what others have to say rather than any deep academic research of my own.

Every source I've read or watched all agree the sample sizes used when creating the tests in the first place just aren't large enough to be all that confident beyond 2σ.

There's also the problem that training on tests is effective, which limits the ability of a test to be validated on those taking it fairly soon after it gets published.

A further other issue is that most IQ tests pre-suppose the existence of a G-factor and treat differences between types of intelligence as noise rather than a signal for the existence of any multi-factor variation. I don't know which hypothesis is correct (I lean towards thinking it's mostly a G-factor, but there are clearly some things which can only be explained by multi-factor models, e.g. where a skill is entirely absent such as in the case of dyscalculia).

I have pretty much the same mental image, though with the 40's and 50's having some color probably mostly from period movies about that time.

What I really wonder is whether the photos and videos we're taking in the present will have some kind of subjective effect on how people remember our current time. It feels like we're finally at a point where most media has the fidelity to capture an objective image of the world, but that could just be that since we have the reference point of living through these times our minds can fill in the blanks.

Maybe the original comment I replied to's grandkid will want to borrow their old iPhone 12 to take retro pictures with someday.
And what is its purpose? It is clearly 100% punitive as there is no rehabilitative part to time in solitary.

The first time I did 10 days for a non-crime. I had my trial on day 9, was found not guilty and released the next day back to population. That's some Alice in Wonderland shit right there -- do the time, then maybe do the crime?
I'm being a little more devil's advocate here and playing fast with some of the practical realities than I might personally hold as an actual opinion so keep that in mind, but:

A business should always be subservient to the general citizens who will make up said business. Following that, consumer rights (citizen rights) should always be promoted over the rights of a business. So I don't know that I take your point about balancing those two things. They seem like separate classes of rights with one that is more important. I guess that's technically still balancing, but in a way that business always loses.

As to writing a law to stand up to scrutiny. I don't know that I have to care about that. That's not my problem to deal with, that's our legislators problem. In fact that should be one of their primary problems, writing laws that stand up to scrutiny that protect abuse of general citizens.

It seems more like a lack of will, which I could speculate on.

Edit: I'll say this, as something reflecting my actual opinion. I tend to agree that this has a high degree of complexity and applying a flippant indiscriminate legislation to ban this won't work and won't stand up to legal scrutiny, though I get the sense you know a lot more about why than I do. That said, I do think we can do better, and if you work backwards from an impossibly high ideal, with a lot of time and effort someone can land on a solution that's better than nothing. I don't think that's impossible. I don't think legislation is necessarily the right way to go about it. I was hesitant to add that part to my initial post but went with it anyway. It isn't aligned entirely with my own beliefs about competition, even though I think the practice of pay for play is kind of gross, and imbalanced and doesn't reflect a superior product.
When I worked at a bank, I heard that the travel notifications weren't actually used by the fraud department at all and were just there as window dressing to make the customer feel better.
That's all well and good, but I never had an iPod during its heyday. I had a Creative Zen Touch circa 2005/2006, and then the aforementioned Sansa's around 2009-2010. And, of course, my Android phones. I don't aim to change that now--it's a matter of pride.
Stores are not payment processors and don’t want to be due to compliance reasons. You’d have to ask who is processing their payments and contact those people and have the store also contact them most likely and that still doesn’t mean you’ll get anything done.

> What is the difference between "newsworthy" and "clickbait"

Good question. It's important to know that "reliable" sources can push clickbait, and the headline and framing contributes to turning an ordinary story into clickbait. For example, in a science context, reporting on new research findings about aging can be kind of dry, but give that same research to a content farm and it could turn into "Scientists Find Weird Diet That STOPS AGING"

> now just read like a curated version of Twitter

That's a problem, and there are whole "news" outlets dedicated to grabbing a few tweets, writing some words around it, and calling it a story. That said, there is still a great deal of deep-dive long form journalism out there, but guess what: It doesn't show up as well in SEO, and isn't promoted by Meta/Google/Twitter, so of course the stuff that tends towards clickbait and social media summaries is going to easy to find.

Often the major media at the national/international level becomes a conversation with itself and with the in-group journalists doing the reporting. My theory about why more media haven't dropped twitter is because they are wedded it as the medium for which that instant conversation happens.

Newspapers, for example, used to have a Copy Desk, where the final editing and composing of the paper happened. Within the computers system where reporters filed stories and editors gathered and refined them for publication, most newsrooms had a file or section for internal talk and discussion. Think of it like an internal Slack channel, except it wasn't instant. I happened to have worked at a newspaper at one point, as a programmer, and the stuff that lived in that system was wild, especially when big breaking news happened. Now, I believe, Twitter plays that role, but across organizations.
Interesting, thanks for the info. So as it seems the fact that no type checking/conversion is necessary as in dynamic languages has a positive influence on performance; but I would expect significantly less than factor two. The special AST therefore means that the interpreter is closer to a bytecode than an AST interpreter and doesn't suffer from the drawbacks of an AST interpreter, but then assumingly is not repsonsible for the measured speed-up (but instead avoiding a speed-down). The mentioned optimizations must then be responsible for the speedup, but actually also LuaJIT has many optimizations.

I believe that is indeed a good guide for when it makes sense to have a SRE team supporting a service or product (with the caveat that the number probably isn't $1MM).

There are also good patterns for ensuring you actually have adequate SRE coverage for what the business needs. 2 x 6ppl teams geo-graphically dispersed doing 7x12 shifts works pretty well (not cheap). You can do it with less but you run into more challenges when individuals leave / get burnt out / etc.

That's odd, Android's line-level management seemed very sure that their relentless focus on quality since 2021 was going great.

On the line-level, we'd grumble that "quality! focus!" was instead empowering a new middle management layer to continue burning themselves out and wasting ICs by failing to delegate.

Not to mention the kissing up and punching down it took to sustain that, leveraging a company happy to fire people.

>They burn a lot of gas per hour, but they also go faster than a car and so per distance efficiency is about the same as a gas car.

A cessna 172 burns 8 gallons an hour in cruise at 125 mph. A generic sedan at 30mpg burns 2 gallons an hour at 60mph on the highway.

The calculations do not work for small planes. The energy to go double the speed is not double the energy.
I'm of two minds about the processing... if adding lots of artificial color, sharpening, and contrast brings out the detail(s) the researcher is looking for without actually altering them, then it seems like fair game.

Uber has four office buildings in SF mission bay. One was never used, the other 3 were underutilized, so employees are going to be moved/consolidated into 2. These buildings also have street-front retail lease spaces, so presumably by having more people coming into the area, that increases foot traffic for those spaces as well.

As someone who is a die-hard vim user, I agree with the article.

The amount of time over the last nearly 40 years of using vi, which I've spent messing around with vim configs and plugins, trying to get a smarter editor, has been amazing.

Over the last year I've switched to LunarVim, which is a pre-packaged vim setup with all the plugins and configs, and an LSP and TreeSitter, and it's been amazing. All the "IDE-like" setups I had done in the past either were half-baked or ended up breaking in obtuse ways fairly quickly.

LunarVim is giving me great code suggestions from the LSP and really is a game changer from my various older vim setups. I catch so many errors I would have run into at runtime now that I'm getting python type annotation messages right in my editor.
