Amen to that! It's really frustrating when a date is not put there, especially on tech topics. If no tech version is written explicitly either, you are left wondering "will this still apply to my case or is it something super-old?"

But beside selfish use-cases like looking for an answer to a problem, it is something that was already solved in the previous form of knowledge distribution: books. Why do we always take one step back when moving forward?

Or imagine for the code analysis they replaced phyton running on kubernetes with wasm engines. would need a small wast to wasm compiler and interfaces for simple io and plotting, but many analytics tasks could probably run much faster.
Yes unfortunately "model craft" is not defined anywhere in Part 97 that I can find.

I can't say I understand the rest of the first paragraph - Part 97 doesn't actually ban encryption, just "codes or ciphers intended to obscure the meaning of the communication", from which "telecommand of model craft" is specifically exempted.

I'm not as familiar with the Part 15 rules - do they allow high gain antennas? Since this case is about stationary command and control, I wonder if lower power + high gain wifi antennas at both ends would close the link.

> I don't know about Gmail, but Google Translate won't let me use speech functionality in Firefox.

Speech output works fine here (Firefox, Ubuntu 23.04). I remember needing to install some kind of system speech synthesis feature on my OS to get web speech to work, though, because Firefox doesn't have one of their own like Chrome.

As for speech input: Firefox doesn't implement the recognition part of the Web Speech API (demo here https://mdn.github.io/dom-examples/web-speech-api/speech-col...). In fact, every implementation is one with a browser prefix (https://caniuse.com/speech-recognition) so it's no wonder Firefox isn't supported yet.

As for Teams: Microsoft doesn't care about the 3% Firefox users they get and they simply don't test, that's my conclusion. Back when Teams simply threw up a "your browser is not supported" the whole thing worked 95% if you spoofed the user agent and the modifications to fix the rest weren't all that hard (Firefox has some audio input/output implementation differences).
You're wrong, and so is the first comment. Sorry (and to @KayEss).

You're thinking of the 486.

The 80386DX was the first x86 CPU to be 32-bit and have an on-chip MMU. And nothing else: no cache, no FPU.

The FPU was a discrete part, the 80387DX.

Because OS/2 1.x didn't support the 80386, and so couldn't run DOS apps well, and so flopped, the 16-bit 80286 kept selling well. It ran DOS fast and it could run Windows 2/286 and Windows 3 in Standard Mode which was good enough. It could only address 16MB of RAM but that was fantastically expensive and it was more than enough for DOS and Windows 3.

So, because DOS still ruled, Intel made a cost-reduced version of the 80386DX, the 80386SX. This had a 16-bit data bus, so it could use cheaper 16-bit motherboards and 16-bit wide RAM, still limited to a max of 16MB. Still enough.

That needed a maths copro for hardware floating point, too: a different part, the 80387SX.

Then Windows 3 came along, which was also good enough, and started a move in PC apps to GUIs. Windows 3.1 (1992) was better still.

So Intel had a 2nd go at the 32-bit chip market with the 80486, marketed as the "486". This integrated a better 386DX-compatible CPU core with a few extra instructions, complete with MMU, plus a 387-style FPU, plus a small amount of L1 cache, all onto one die.

But it was expensive, and didn't sell well.

Also, all the 3rd party x86 makers leapt on the bandwagon and integrated the extra instructions into 16-bit bus 386SX compatible chips and branded them as 486s: the Cyrix and IBM "486slc" for instance. This ate into sales of the real 486.

So Intel came up with an ethically very dodgy borderline scam: it shipped 486s with the FPU disabled, calling them the "486DX" to reuse the branding that distinguished the 32-bit-bus models of 386 from the 16-bit-bus.

People don't understand stuff like bus widths or part numbers, as your post demonstrates, and I mean no offense. They don't.

So now there was a new model of 486, the 486SX with a disabled FPU, and the 486DX with it still turned on.

The "SX" model needed a new motherboard with a 2nd CPU socket that accepted a "floating point co-processor", called the "487", which was nothing of the kind. The "SX" was a lie and so was the "487 copro". The 487 was a 2nd complete 486 chip that disabled the original and took over.

But it reused the older branding, which is what you've remembered.

Later, briefly, Intel made a cheaper cost-reduced 486SX with a smaller die with no FPU present, but not many of them. The clock-doubled 486DX2 took over quite quickly and killed the 486DX and 486SX market.

Some commentators speculated that the 486DX vs 486SX marketing thing allowed Intel to sell defective 486s in which the FPU didn't work but if it did that was a tiny tiny number: a rounding error.

For as long as I can remember, there has been a trend to shift responsibilities from various OSI layers up, all the way into the application layer. My professor explained that that was primarily due to improvements in the physical layer — like being able to send (vastly) more than 8 bits at a time reliably over fiber. As bandwidth increases, the shape of congestion changes, but latency sticks.

Other factors are probably that "novel" concerns like security weren't properly understood at the time OSI model conjured.

Again, you'll need to provide some evidence if you're going to try to dispute the findings of an entire field of science.

You do come across as some kind of denier as you're just throwing around statements with no evidence and to be honest, there's always people like you popping up when there's discussion of climate change and it's annoying because invariably those people are not even scientists themselves, but feel that just reading conspiracy websites makes them into an expert.

This was one of the ideas in the General Semantics philisophy. You don't much hear about it nowadays, it's a pre-war thing. One of the tenants was that you should date expressions. For example, if referring to a person, you'd write "Roosevelt, 1930" because a year later, Roosevelt may behave like a different person altogether.

I don't agree with this categorization and it leaves out other important considerations:

- Data structure and algorithm are of the same "algorithm" topic

- Some programming languages like Rust do not have tail-call optimization and so do not perform recursion well. You need to use the strengths of the language and avoid its weaknesses.

- IO Optimization is another kind of optimization. Minimizing copies of data in memory, sharing whatever possible

- Cache Optimization - design according to how CPU caches work with the operating system

I don't use Unix time. If someone gives you a Unix time timestamp x, it doesn't mean much unless you check it against a list of leap seconds. By default, your fancy unix time timestamp X doesn't point to a unique second in history, for dozens of times, it pointed to some pretty random 2 seconds intervals. TAI is the only sane choice if you do understand what you are doing.

Btw, if you already know that leap second is dead and wondering what happens next, well, they are going to implement leap minute, the good news is you are unlikely to see one in your life time. They are meeting next week to decide on this leap minute proposal.

The real items on it are almost all ceremonial calendars and everyone (who isn't a priest) uses the Gregorian calendar, or at least most people know it.

Notably, the newest entry on that list is "Unix time". Just because there's already more than one entry on the list doesn't mean a small group of people should add another. That's not even "there are now 14 standards" that's just deliberately adding to the pile.

I'd put my money on most research that wouldn't be replicated successfully if eventually tested being industry propaganda, psychology, and sociology. There's likely a lot of unchallenged complete garbage that goes back many many years.

The cool cutting edge scientific research that's just too new (or too difficult) to have been replicated yet is always going to be somewhat of an issue, but it's the wrong stuff that's been around for ages that worries me most. Not only because of what it's influenced in all this time, but because when something believed to be true for a long time is invalidated it can cause problems for a lot of other research that was built off those lies, not to mention huge amounts of wasted time/effort/money.
The world isn't a binary choice between either left or right.

Still not convinced the generatorness is worthwhile; I’d split out the Promise/setTimeout dance into a `sleep(ms)` or `sleepUntil(date)` function before replacing a simple while loop that logs with a infinite generator and for loop that logs. But certainly if you were scaling it up further you’d want to head in this general direction.

I think the inferencing is using many orders of magnitude more compute than the occasional analytics tasks. But I assume the containers do need some significant resources.

> (and I love English for how you can just verb or noun anything - it's like Lisp of natural languages!)

This is an odd observation. All languages have derivation. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morphological_derivation )

English has zero-derivation of verbs [that is, the form of the derived verb is identical to the form of the word from which the verb was derived], and this construction is highly productive; many people have remarked on it. But there's nothing similar for nouns in English, so I don't see why you're listing nouns as parallel to verbs.

The meme expression "I accidentally [missing verb] [something]" does not obey the rules of English, as you can easily tell by the responses saying "you accidentally did what?"

If you really meant that parenthetical, you might be interested in Chinese, where academics sometimes get into arguments over what part of speech a given example of a word should be considered to belong to. There is very little inflection, which makes the confusion possible.
Does modding a game that uses a bespoke Lispish scripting language count?

I think what you mean is what we have implemented a side channel DBMS which holds a copy which you use for the transactionality. It's a terrible approach I would not do this at all you don't get any benefit from using s3 here.

This is not to say you can't use s3 to pull large blob storage off the DB and reference it in the DB I'm talking about the entire DB as s3.

There’s some unexpected behaviour with MMM as a formatter, which is that it’s not always 3 characters long and differ subtle by locale.

Notably on the JVM if your locale is en-GB every month is 3 chars: Jan, Feb, Mar, etc. until you get to September which is Sept.

In en-US it’s just Sep.

Of course, if you don’t specify the locale in code, it will choose the system default leading to lovely region specific exceptions for your servers in Ireland and England.

In order to establish an equivalence you have to develop a function that takes a modern situation and perfectly transposes it to a past situation. This way a person that believes that the past situation was bad will have to admit the present situation is also bad.

Problem 2: it’s difficult to communicate
