For the moment.

New Zealand doesn't have cheques any more. Banks here totally phased them out a couple of years back.

The USA will also make checks obsolete over time.

Plus cash is disliked at many retailers and cash is not acceptable at some locations (e.g. my skifield only accepts cards - I was told it is because the nearest small-town bank won't accept cash deposits from the skifield). I suspect our government will slowly discourage cash 1. to prevent tax evasion (cash jobs), and 2. to prevent illegal purchases (e.g. weed). Those are the main uses for cash that I personally see others use cash for (I use cash because I like using it and I like privacy).
Anti-vaxxer is an extremely ill-defined label that you apply to people
because you judge them.

Then you seem to think that everyone else should accept and agree with your judgement.

Because if people do not agree with your judgement, then everything is
ultimately arbitrary and if fully realized, would annihilate society.

Now I can tell you that I do not care about how you judge a person.
I will make up my own mind.
So there you are, by your own definition society is annihilated.

Yet here we still are.

[You picked some bad examples on which to argue your point.
You should though spend time to figure out good examples]
I'm actually surprised that they didn't mention that the patterns output from the loom were encoded by what we now recognize as the first programming language. The language is still in use, too.

The comparison between cams and vinyl records was very interesting, and it was all bordering on and some fully implementing programmability.
raised independent bible church/southern baptist, probably 80% fundamentalist.

Now I guess you could consider me a deist, since I think if we are going to define God as some kind of infinite extension of some aspect of humanity then God would have to be a hyper turing machine then in my estimation.

Seems like such a thing could not exist in this universe, but I do actually choose to, loosely, believe something along that line exists, but we couldn't actually interact with or understand an entity like that... on like a mathematical level we couldn't.

So I explicitly disbelieve in a personal god of any kind. There could be a demiurge but I see no reason why it would have moral authority or anything, maybe it could torture you endlessly I guess XD.
I also couldn’t get shows on demand on my phone, on a TV when I’m not at home by either logging into apps on the TV or by booking up a $35 dongle.
MacKay's entire analysis is posed using KWh (and multiples) as a standard unit for energy. Why? From memory he stated it was because everything would otherwise need to be converted to Joules (or multiples) and KWh were at least a common enough energy unit that people "think" in them for resource estimates.

Then vote and/or report? They aren't trying to further their understanding, that much is clear when their dialogue started by saying anyone who holds a different ideological position is a grifter. They're trying to start a fight with a bystander who supported the "other".
I also mean in a legal sense. And yes the dictionary meaning too.

It’s just openly and obviously collusion.

Antitrust enforcement in this country has completely collapsed for a generation and the plain meaning of laws has been ignored a lot. It’s pretty clear that’s what they’ve been counting on here.

Might work we’ll see.

“Human drivers are the status quo”

And I have REAMS of data showing how the status quo is unacceptable. Humans are impetuous, impatient, emotional, inconsistent and terribly distracted. Just a slow rolling, ongoing, widespread disaster on the road.

I have zero data (not anecdotes) to show that particular autonomous companies are somehow worse. They have object permanence btw (occluded object tracking is a thing), just not for their undercarriage (for now).

So either let’s come up with an objective set of metrics on a set timeline for them to meet and get legalized or let them back on the road so we can figure out what those metrics could be.

When automobiles with human drivers were growing we just let them grow, default accept.

I will vehemently oppose any suggestion that now we must be default reject.
She could but courts aren’t going to hear it. They almost always make decisions on the narrowest criteria and this case (and others like it) are about old fashioned collusion. The fact that participation in Real Page requires you to use their pricing is the thing that will decide this case. The algorithm won’t really be at issue at all.

> You seem to be arguing against what you argue for? I wholeheartedly agree with you that we need to create rules to democratize smartphones, and that is because I'm against a free market. And Capitalism.

I am against having the worst of two worlds. There's effectively a government supported monopoly of iOS and Android, when you need one of them to do your taxes and governments mandate 2FA apps. If there was a free market, in the sense that competitors can... well, compete that would be a different story. But unlike when those companies became big today you cannot even hack compatible solutions due to copyright laws. So even there you have the government acting anti free market.

You could also go on tight regulation, maybe even force let's say APIs, heck even create a government competitor just to have a solution not built around purely squeezing out money and data of customers. You could make sure/mandate that this works for all banking, tax filing, every day stuff, and leave the rest to Apple and Google if you must. Just have that digital (maybe super secure, because specialized and minimal) way to interact with the basic stuff you need every day.

Just like every house needs to have water, waster water and electricity whether it's some government supported living or some luxury villa. The basics should be possible.

Of course these are by far not the only two ways to go, but like I said my point is that right now the worst parts are taken and that's what I meant with capitalism without free market. Google and Apple can go for maximizing profit, but without real fear of competition.
It's pretty unlikely. A source code license is negotiated with the sales team directly and costs at least USD100k last I heard (the price is not publicly disclosed). They're also reluctant to give source code licenses at all.

I don’t think individual show subscriptions don’t make financial sense. For Netflix the costs when everyone is subscribed to all their shows, or everyone is subscribed to one show, are basically the same.
I’m picking examples that I believe will resonate with most people on this forum, simply because all of them tend to get the most vitriol. My personal views are a bit different.

That's what I'm wondering -- how significant are its irritant properties?

When gasoline spills the fumes aren't pleasant (to most people) but they seem fairly tolerable even at close distances.

Fine, I clicked and read a couple of those. I like the 3rd one that defines a ponzi scheme:

"A Ponzi scheme, or "ponzi" for short, is a type of investment fraud with these five features:

1 People invest into it because they expect good profits, and

2. that expectation is sustained by such profits being paid to those who choose to cash out. However,

3. there is no external source of revenue for those payoffs. Instead,

4. the payoffs come entirely from new investment money, while

5. the operators take away a large portion of this money."

This is great because points 3 and 5 are trivially proved false for Bitcoin and shows that is no more a ponzi scheme than stocks or real estate or any other common investment.

Thank you for the insight.

This is proposing to incentivize homeowners to vote against parks or even actively dismantle them to get a tax break. That seems pretty silly.

The most tragic thing about this is that most of the legislators are exactly the same. There's no problem until it happens to them. It's acceptable for "others" to be thought of as drug dealers and other miscreants who don't deserve to have bank accounts.
Interesting distinction.

How they get you is by "deeming".

Deem is such a very interesting word. To unilaterally suppose,
consider or judge something to be. Appears a lot in arrogant, forceful
and abusive legalese.

"You are deemed to have accepted..." and so on.

In the "forced trust" society people will be "deemed to trust". Of
course asymmetrically, for them (the abusers) it will be seen as a
"zero trust" system. For "security" (not yours).
Because of that management style, it has been bitrotting for FOUR YEARS and has even gotten forked by a couple people involved so at least some progress could continue.

> I think when Einstein or Newton make statements they are making statements about reality and not just sense impressions.

Einstein in particular made huge strides by thinking in terms of sense impressions, e.g. by using his imagination to take on the perspective of an observer falling off a roof:

> I got the happiest thought of my life in the following form:…for an observer in free-fall from the roof of a house there is…no gravitational field. Namely, if the observer lets go of any bodies, they remain relative to him, in a state of rest or uniform motion, independent of their special chemical or physical nature. The observer, therefore, is justified in interpreting his state as being "at rest."

The emphasis on sense impressions over an appeal to an external reality is something he owes to Mach: https://blog.superb-owl.link/p/church-of-reality-ernst-mach-...
If you're going more than a month without updating a server, then you should allow for the possibililty of a bit of downtime (or delay to read the docs) when you do get around to updating it. And since it wasn't clear in the article: removing a package from the portage repo doesn't cause the package to be automatically uninstalled from your system, and it doesn't cause the package to be ignored during dependency resolution.
In specialised applications, you'd definitely miss AVX and SSE. Beyond that, I'm not sure.
The Thomas Cook European Rail Timetable uses 00:00 for a train departing at midnight, and 24:00 for a train arriving at midnight.
That defeats the purpose of a bank, which is to give businesses loans. SSA has no one to give loans to.
You could spend your entire life improving test infrastructure. There's clearly a cut off point where the investment stops making sense but it's hard to know when.

The investment calculation is quite complex and many of the variables require guesses. A lot of returns on automation work are not positive.
It has lots of comments inside the regexes. How would this better comment support look like?
unreal absolutely does have support for this type of game. It is really a smattering of different loosely coupled tools that you can bring into the project, or roll your own. The star is absolutely the rendering engine and visual programming tools IMO.

Unreal really excels at action games, but you can absolutely implement custom camera RTS controls and such. Batteries included but replaceable.

The question "does X engine support this kind of game" is a bit.. off. You would be amazed at how many features these engines pack in. However: You would also be amazed at how NOT "plug and play" they are. It still takes a TON of effort and custom code to make a sophisticated game.
How are iso timestamps a problem? You need a time zone of course. Usually people stick to UTC. But it's trivial to convert iso timestamps to unixtime so it's hard to imagine how one would have more bugs.
Totally. Yeah the comparison was extreme and not meant to equate things.

>"It's true we shouldn't judge what works for someone without knowing them well, and even then, we can only offer suggestions."

Very well said. I have had great success with psychedelics and other mind-altering substances but doesn't mean the next person will. I have yet to reap a great benefit from therapy but perhaps I just haven't found the right therapist either. To each their own.
Dude, it was a general statement, not specific to the authors comments.

But if you think internet is bad wait until you have the case where a working mother can't heat her babies bottle but the rich ceo down the road is charging his Tesla.

I know this is coming because I sat in a talk at YOW last year which went over how great it will be to have smart transmission networks. I imagine the presenter (some ex head from Google's Borg project) was so privileged she can't even imagine someone being unable to compete with the ceo for transmission capacity.
It's just a config generator but you can share the configs. You bring your own cloud.

Check the generated examples once you log in, but for a hub and spoke network let's say, the idea is this:

- Create your network.

- Add a device. Name it hub. Label it hub. Do not assign the device to your self, but create a guest invite. Name the invite hub.

- Add more devices, one for each server or enduser device. Label them as you wish. For servers, create guest invites. For enduser, create guests or members. Guests don't need to create an account to get their configs.

- In connections, add two rules. all to hub, and hub to all.

Now the network is defined, but there are no associated private/public keys with these devices. You need to create Interfaces for that.

For your servers, for which you created guest members, create an interface for each device. Either generate the keys in browser, or just provide the public key if you already have one.

For the hub interface, you need an endpoint url, that's where all other devices will connect to. No endpoint is needed for the other interfaces.

For the devices belonging to end users, just copy and share their invite url. They will be able to generate their own Interfaces and keys.

During all these changes , all configs are kept in sync.

Going back to your server devices, you can just curl their respective interface url (including the invite code) and you'll get your config. Add a cron and a fallback in case of a botched change, and you're set. (in theory at least)
Bitcoin absolutely does not have the privacy of cash!

Price fixing is problematic only because it allows producers to collude and force above-market price and restrict supply. That is problematic in markets with elastic supply, where price competition could change supply of individual market participants, but not in inelastic/fixed-supply market like rental market.

One could verify if this price discovery caused above-market price by comparing vacant rental rate. If it is higher than would be expected, then one could argue price discovery algorithms caused price fixing of above-market rate. If it is not, then it is just an efficient way to discover true market rate and there is no damage by using it.
Here is some actionable advice: give your existing employees an opportunity to become the sort of developer you wish you had. Convince your bosses to allocate time during working hours to allow them to learn new things and write experimental code. As they grow into the employees you wish you had, give them more responsibility for their deliverables. That is how you encourage them care and how you scale as a boss.
They were in big trouble then. The entire company was riding on it being great.

It could have easily gone awry as it did for Data General, Honeywell, CDC, AST, Tandy, Olivetti, Xerox, DEC Rainbow, AT&T Hobbit, Wang 2200 and Unisys. Strong survivorship bias on this one. Most of the once Titans are in or near the dustbin now, such as SDS, SDC and Fairchild.

Intel's history was primarily as a memory manufacturer. They're arguably near a similar fucked position now - effectively 0% of the mobile and home appliance market and getting slaughtered in their only remaining stronghold by NVIDIA, AMD and ARM pillaging their castle. Hopefully they'll squeeze out of this one.

Vector instructions are the obvious thing and being massive gains to media, cryptography, math, AI, graphics, and signal processing.

Beyond that there have been a few additions like CMOV (conditional move) that would be missed, though instruction fusion in pipelines can sometimes achieve the same speed up.

Lastly you would have to add some atomic instructions to support SMP.

This is a bit of an apples-to-oranges comparison. If you consider the energetic content of the gas burned in a car, then you need to measure the same thing for the EV - large power plants are a bit more efficient than car engines, but unavoidably far from 100%; in order to get 10kwh of electricity to an EV the current grid would burn gas or coal with an energetic content of probably 25kwh or so.

So electrification alone can't bring so large reductions in total energy consumption - it is simply one of the prerequisites for that, and it also needs to be accompanied with large scale build-up of non-fossil electricity, of renewables or nuclear.

I have taken LSD and Shrooms countless times. I take MDMA multiple times a month as well. I guess the point though, for that example, was more along the lines of: take whatever substance floats your boat as much as you desire to remain in a happy state.

>"In my experience, these drugs don't mask your problems, they surface/amplify them."

MDMA will defiantly mask your problems. As will heroin, GBH, and a number of others. But yeah LSD/shrooms not so much.

Floating wind is production ready and in production in the UK. The flagship example was Hywind in Scotland which has been in production since 2017.

There are several other offshore projects using floating wind, more being converted and a lot more planned for conversion or development. There is quite a lot of investment and encouragement from government. See https://www.great.gov.uk/international/content/investment/se... for a reasonable overview.

At the end of the day, government agencies are just another customer, no different than a private sector customers. It's not that tech companies have some nefarious intent to spy on Americans, all they want to do is sell more of whatever it is that they make.
Context matters. In the context of a single thread, ordinary variable reads and writes happen as if they were in program order. So in that context, they are extremely natural. When shared across threads, reading and writing ordinary variables happens under a lock, so everything still appears as if in program order.

Atomics are used in a context of being shared across threads without locks. In that context, reasoning about them makes you actually think about memory ordering in a way that wasn't there with ordinary variables.

Sequentially consistent atomics are the easiest to reason about because all seq_cst atomic operations within a thread happen in program order (and are visible to other threads in that order). Relaxing that to acquire/release/relaxed loosens that, so it requires more thinking about what needs to be visible and in what order. It's only complicated because seq_cst has a performance cost, so you typically want to think about whether it's necessary or not for the particular use case. But reasoning about what is happening with an algorithm when using seq_cst atomics is always at least as easy as when using looser ordering.
I find it bemusing that this is presented as somehow suprising and clashing with formerly held SV ideals. As if a lot of these companies don't already have mass user survellance as their primary business model.
