The other problem is that consistency of use matters a lot but is hard to capture in surveys. People say “I always wore a mask” and sometimes that meant “I wore a well-fitted N95 every time I was indoors” and other times it meant “I wore a loose surgical mask when grocery shopping and work but also ate out 5 nights a week”.

This kind of work is like trying to find effective strategies for reducing alcoholism or obesity rates when you know that many people will fill out a questionnaire with the answers shifted out of optimism or shame. Simple random controlled trials are challenging in those situations.
Can you just simulate that coordination with sleep timers?

Test box A:

===================

- Start chat

- Wait 60 seconds

- Send message "Blah blah ID123"

- Wait 60 seconds for DOM element "Acknowledging receipt of ID123" or fail

Test box B:

===================

- Start chat

- Wait 10 minutes for DOM element containing "ID123"

- Send message "Acknowledging receipt of ID123"

As for setting up the tests, I found Datadog's GUI to be pretty easy to use: https://docs.datadoghq.com/synthetics/browser_tests/?tab=req... (it's like a homebrewed DOM selector and logic engine GUI, no coding required, but CSS and Xpath selectors are helpful).

Check the Car and Driver link. They are very thorough, scientific, and realistic with their testing. https://www.caranddriver.com/features/a44676201/ev-range-epa...

I wish EVs would prominently also publish their efficiency (miles/kw). MPGe isn't a useful value for an EV. My Bolt has a 60kw battery, depending on my driving I get between 3.5 to 4.5 miles per KW - 210-270 miles.

This notion that your car gets 240 miles, even if the conditions are adverse, is silly. Gas cars are impacted by cold weather too. My car got 20% worse gas mileage in the winter when I lived in the Midwest. If you drive really fast you won't get as good of range out of tank as if you drive slower.

Sharing a list of subjective symptoms to “watch out for” so people can “protect their health” isn’t helping anyone.

There’s a difference between telling people to talk to their doctor if they have concerns and posting a list of symptoms which is likely to create concern where none of existed. Most of the mentioned symptoms are highly correlated with stress and anxiety. Listing them and encouraging people to pay attention to them is almost certainly doing more harm than good.

There is also no widely recognized evidence based treatment for any of this. Advising people to seek treatment is likely going to be completely unhelpful, or worse encourage people to go down some quack rabbit hole and start mega dosing vitamins.

Also I’d appreciate if you didn’t imply that cautioning people against posting this kind of medical advice was somehow anti-minority. I can guarantee you that no serious medical professional or minority health advocates are happy to see people posting these symptom lists on forums.

The FPGA world rarely cares about RAM limits on MCU cores unless they are trying to make something that benchmarks really well. When they have to be tiny, most of those MCUs run fairly short programs out of a single block RAM (which is a few kB), and actually care more about the LUT count than the BRAM count, making the C instructions actively bad.

(This mostly applies to the high end, but designers on low-end devices may be more SRAM-constrained)

How do you even use all those registers? Serious question. I've toyed with a couple of 256-register ISAs, and the moment you hit function calls/parameter passing you realize that to utilize those efficiently, you really need some way to indirectly refer to registers, be it register windows, or MMIX's register slide, or Am29k's IPA/IPB/IPC registers; the only other option seems to be to perform global register allocation but that hardly works in scenarios with separate compilation/dynamic code loading.
Every P-256 or X25519 ECDH operation uses a new ephemeral single-use key breaking which is about as hard as brute forcing AES-128. Global bitcoin hash rate is something like 90 bits per year. People think NSA doesn't have more hardware than all the bitcoin miners together. If they can break 128 bit security, they can't break it for every roundtrip in a Signal chat. I don't know what they would even use the capability to do. I don't think they need brute force to forge a Microsoft or Apple signature - easier to steal it. But it would be something high value that would be broadly useful, not a single message.

You are definitely reinventing something that already exists: Consulting. I worked as a consultant on projects in a model similar to the one you describe in the early 2000's.

This does work. It just requires a sales staff. And usually a 'bench' (the ability to pay developers in-between jobs).

And to be clear: it's only one way of approaching the current set of problems caused by well-intentioned management consultants.

FYI: The cult-classic movie "Office space" actually dealt with what the fallout from management consultants looks like (specifically with software development)
Gotta love the language there. "Very bothersome" sounds so much less problematic than other potential phrasings. Like, "oh dear, I get brain zaps, feel like a zombie, and am having persistent intrusive thoughts that interfere with my ability to think and perform during the day. Gee golly, what a nuisance."

A quarter of patients reporting very troubling side effects is not great for a class of drugs with an effect size around 0.3, or about 10% more reduction in depression symptom scores compared to placebo. If you have run out of options and are desperate for relief, it may be an appealing risk/reward equation for some people. But the notion that 100% of patients believe they need these meds, rather than had the drug recommended by a doctor/psychiatrist (who maybe didn't go into great detail about the potential risks vs tempering expectations about how likely they are to help), is absurd. It totally ignores how our medical system operates in most cases. Many times, the doctors prescribing will be informed by drug company PR literature moreso than careful reading of scientific research.
Biggest problems are getting it and affording it.

So there are medical prescribers of various types that will offer you a prescription.

And then there are the discount providers making injections from semaglutide salts for cheap.

An unsolved problem is reliable supply.

Beyond that, the value is in not having to think about it. Ozempic works for weight loss as it doesn't require anything but your weekly injection.
I was thinking of operating systems I use aside from the Unices or Windows, such as VMS, z/OS, etc. But now that I consider it, I don't know for a fact that Ctrl-l doesn't work with standard terminal programs in other OSes. I just assumed it generally won't. So, grain of salt and all that.

State of DevOps 2023 [pdf]
Thanks for posting the official position of the UK state. I was curious how many far right, non-Islamic organisations are listed as proscribed organisations so I counted them:

* Atomwaffen Division (AWD)

* Feuerkrieg Division (FKD)

* Sonnenkrieg Division (SKD)

* National Action

* The Base

Out of all these, I’d only heard of National Action.

It’s not clear (to me) that all the proscribed groups are actually active in the UK though, with the Internet, I guess they can be recruiting people to their cause.

I also wasn’t too surprised to see that the most recent addition to the list is the Wagner Group (proscribed in September 2023).

On the other hand, I was surprised to see that Basque separatists, ETA (Euskadi Ta Askatasuna) are still listed – despite the fact that they renounced the armed struggle over a decade ago and dissolved their organisation five years ago.

Curiously, their “List of proscribed groups linked to Northern Ireland related terrorism” is even more out-of-date. Since the second-wave of feminism, Cumann na mBan is essentially an historical relic. Some of the organisations (e.g. Saor Éire) haven’t been active since the 70s. The IPLO were (violently) eliminated in the early 90s. The Irish Republican Army is listed but there’s no distinction made between the multiple different groups that refer to themselves as the “Irish Republican Army”; the largest of these (by far), the Provisional IRA abandoned the armed struggle two decades ago and committed themselves to constitutional means of achieving their political aims (as per the 1998 Belfast Agreement aka the Good Friday Agreement) – though splinter IRAs remain opposed to the Peace Process.

Correct. It's brutally hard to measure with precision, in part because the work we do is so multi-dimensional. But it's not too difficult to divide people into at least three groups, of low, high, everyone-else.

I didn't take the GP seriously because of this. Papyrus and clay and stone carvings do not equal operating a network of brittle, bespoke devices across the scale of a solar system. The existence of language, or writing, or even cathedrals or pyramids, do not eclipse this accomplishment. The odds of losing control of a system is proportional to both time and complexity of the system, and the GP ignores the latter factor.
I don't think there are any announced plans for an 3/4 or 1 ton electric trucks, so these will be competing with the "overgrown passenger car" class of pickups, not the "miniature big rig" class.

Edwards Deming, who in terms of process optimization, is (in my carefully considered opinion) head and shoulder above everyone I’ve ever encountered pushing related ideas in software development, challenges the idea of “you can’t manage what you can’t measure”. His belief was it’s far more important to understand the system in which a worker operates, after which you can absolutely make improvements affecting global output without a local measure.

RISC-V, I'm pretty sure, enforces 16 bit alignment and is self synchronizing so it doesn't suffer from this despite being variable length. But if it allowed the PC to be pointed at an instruction with a 1 byte offset then it might be.

As far as I'm aware every RISC ISA that's had any commercial succss does this. HP RISC, SPARC, POWER, MIPS, Arm, RISC-V, etc.
I'm pleased to announce my new SecurityComplianceLLM which will read and analyze every security report, checking off any paperwork your enterprise requires!

It won't actually do anything or take meaningful actions but it will book a weekly sync meeting on everyone's calendar so you can talk about what actions you might take in the future, one day, when the stars align.

For an extra $50/mo, the LLM will even email out a weekly report of what you talked about but with more charts and gifs.

On a related note, starting from a circular orbit, it takes

1/(2sqrt(2) - 3) ~ 5.83

times more energy to throw an object to the center of a gravity well than it does to throw it out of orbit.

It doesn’t matter how close your initial orbit it, or whether you’re orbiting around the Sun or Sagittarius A*. The ratio is always the same, though gravitational assistance from other bodies often affects the calculations in practice.

I expect we’d send a satellite outside the Milky Way long before we get one anywhere near the center of the galaxy. Not that either mission seems particularly feasible with current technology.
Big data work on healthcare is stymied not only by inconsistent collection, but also healthcare privacy laws and a lack of standardization across the industry.

Slow metabolic rate triggers a flight or fight response, just like a panic disorder, so no wonder there is an intersection of symptoms.

But there is a big difference: slow metabolic rate leads to eventual cell death (metabolic encephalopathy), while panic disorder is physiologically harmless in comparison. It's hard to distinguish between the two, and not every doctor is able to do that.

As an interesting observation, a metabolic disorder is not responsive to antidepressants alone.

Oh I'm sure this particular lawsuit will be the one that solve these problems once and for all. Hint: it won't. This is performative politicking.
