Because they are proposals. Are you claiming that a design can't be bad if better alternatives haven't been implemented yet? That is clear nonsense.
Easy, there! This colour scheme is only for a couple or three days out of the year. Anyway, it's not like the world is ending because of it ...
I've worked with NCRI before. I worked on a paper about DAOs, blockchain, memecoins and market manipulation. While it may not be intended to pass peer review, they do bring to light novel concepts and trends and do so in an intellectually honest way... fwiw.
If Microsoft could backport some of the ARM64 work they did for their Azure platform into Windows 12, it should be a wonderful transition.

Is it necessary to build and link windows games with msvc? Pretend I know nothing about the subject.

Large code bases built and linked with open source toolchains have solved this with, for example, thinlto. And by "large" I mean orders of magnitude larger than the mentioned game.

Thank you so much! I always wondered about that. The relevant bit, since it's near the bottom:

> The final step was to bring it all together with Periodic Intra Refresh. Periodic Intra Refresh completely eliminates the concept of keyframes: instead of periodic keyframes, a column of intra blocks moves across the video from one side to the other, “refreshing” the image. In effect, instead of a big keyframe, the keyframe is “spread” over many frames. The video is still seekable: a special header, called the SEI Recovery Point, tells the decoder to “start here, decode X frames, and then start displaying the video”–this hides the “refresh” effect from the user while the frame loads. Motion vectors are restricted so that blocks on one side of the refresh column don’t reference blocks on the other side, effectively creating a demarcation line in each frame.

> Immediately the previous steps become relevant. Without keyframes, it’s feasible to make every frame capped to the same size. With each frame split into packet-sized slices and the image constantly being refreshed by the magic intra refresh column, packet loss resilience skyrocketed, with a videoconference being “watchable” at losses as absurd as 25%.
Unless those “double digits” are 98+%, ruby is still going to be quadruple digit percentage points behind strong competitors in terms of performance.

If I’m going to give it even a second glance, I can’t be seeing “ruby 10,000% slower than Java” for measured use cases.
As it stands right now, this instant, AI isn't good enough to do that in a sufficiently automated fashion so as to replace entire swaths of OS code, making that infeasible. I say right now this instant because the state of the art (SOTA) is rapidly evolving, and so it's entirely possible that will be possible by the end of 2024, given how fast things have moved in the 13 months since ChatGPT was released.
Downvotes for a genuine question? Are we only supposed to say "social media bad"? Come on.
In the past few months, after doing a ton of research I ended up going with Z-Wave for a new home build. Z-Wave isn't not going away anytime soon.

Zigbee is also pretty cool, between these and an odd Wi-Fi only device here and there, it seems more than adequate.

I would suggest just getting a concierge general practitioner instead of a "consultant". My father has one and I believe by paying a rate slightly above what the insurance companies are paying through the concierge system you can get amazing and wonderful care.

Like health care and anything, you get what you pay for.

This is absurd, it’s obvious to blame the “prankster” or the attacker, but the real blame is on those medical devices with ancient software and firmware that barely gets updated or abide by any cybersecurity compliance and requires you to replace the whole device to get a “better and secure” one, it’s like blaming an attacker for leaked credit cards information, obviously the attacker has the malicious intent, but the blame both legally and technically are on who didn’t patch their software or say stored it in a plain-text. So it’s good that these attacks are happening, hopefully they will bring some standardization into medical devices software, just like automation/industrial ones, SCADA systems were (and still sometimes) extremely vulnerable to basic attacks.
When I studied computer science (which, at my university in the United States was still a part of the mathematics faculty), we were required to study one of German, French, or Russian, as those were historical languages of math.

Seems a bit quaint now - but at least it got me to learn German and even spend six months studying at the University of Heidelberg.

None of the competitors needed anything like decades. Companies like PayPal, Venmo, Square, etc. had far more usage with a year or two of launch, and nothing like the high percentage of companies who started using them and removed the option because the fraud / benefit ratio was dismal.
Even on Zigbee, there are slight incompatibilities between vendors.
Definitely more NT, but he’ll hopefully make better use of the “personalities” than Microsoft ever did.

Also, NT is mostly just VMS. So much so, that DEC threatened litigation which resulted in Microsoft supporting Alpha for longer than they’d otherwise have cared for.

I also have a Model 3 and don't feel that way. The only issue I've ever had with it was a door sensor that went bad. Someone showed up at my house and replaced it in under 5 minutes at no cost.

All in all, not a terrible experience.

My last Nissan shut off (including the power steering) in the middle of the road while I was driving; I don't recall the exact problem but it was related to the motor. My BMW blew a headgasket. My Subaru was recalled for a faulty transmission. None of those flaws are even possible with an all electric drivetrain.
I've never used the Index so can't personally compare them. vr-compare.com shows it as having about 30% less pixel density, which is substantial; the pancake lenses of the Pico 4 also offer a large sweet spot. (The Reverb G2 is perhaps the most popular headset for Il-2, and sacrifices a little FoV for a little more pixel density than the Pico 4). The only annoyance with the Pico is that it's not really intended for PCVR, so you'll need to pay $10 for Virtual Desktop. But once set up I've found it to work well.
DVDs have the optical layer sandwiched between two layers of plastic, while a CD is only one layer of plastic with the optical layer coating the other side.. So a sharpie should be fine on a DVD, but might be problematic on a CD

It still works at that point - websites can send you ads and you can choose not to view those websites. No one is forcing you to go to Youtube or whatever.
Regarding the sales tax “hijinks”, B&H actually won that lawsuit because the judge agreed that the law did not require them to pay sales tax on those payments as the NY AG claimed. It’s not hijinks if they are interpreting the law more correctly than the government.

There's a lot that rings true here, but the article keeps noting that the IBM PC won partially because it was cheap. That's only true versus the examples the authors cite. In the business space, it was pretty expensive when compared to, for example, business oriented Z80/CPM platforms. And it was very expensive compared to the variety of home 8-bit choices. There were a lot of different markets/niches at the time, and things changed quickly, so it's hard to distill the history into soundbites about what happened and why.
that's surprising considering `pry`[1] is such an amazing debugger IMO.

The better question is

“Why would I pointlessly accept this clear case of massive technical debt for literally no reason what-so-ever?”

Rails does not present any sort of promise that go does not also present, so just saying “yeah, I’ll handcuff my app like this cause I feel like using Ruby” is, frankly, absurd.

When you ask the right questions, you never land on Ruby, and that’s why Ruby continues to decline.
LISP fetishism must be resisted every time it appears.

Programmers who learn LISP and think they have become enlightened are no different than drunks who ramble on about how it is impossible to know if the colors they see are the same as the colors you see.

I understand how compelling the marketing hype seems at first, but a quick investigation reveals this to be yet another mafia shakedown and effort to lock down and prevent any meaningful competition.

They have a 16-bit Vendor ID. That's 65,535 vendors supported. Globally. Ever. One must pay the CSA ([0] $2,500 per PRODUCT or $7,000 per YEAR) for one of these artificially scarce identifiers.

In order to download specs, you're expected to accept TOS, authenticate and then you're emailed a (presumably authenticated) link to the PDF [1].

You need to wait for the consortium to define every single application layer detail for each and every type of thing [2].

Of course, the decision makers are unable to make high quality decisions since their own businesses depend on trapping customers in their respective walled gardens. The goal is to prevent any small or medium sized businesses from competing with the small handful of multinational megacorps.

From what I can tell, it's all of the worst parts of USB, without HID and Serial to fall back on for things they didn't think to define.

I came to the same conclusion and it has been fine.
I live in NorCal and do some culinary foraging for fun. There's plenty, I mean people lived here before Europeans colonized. There's all kinds of native berries, blackberry, salmon berry, service berry, elderberry huckleberry. There are plenty of nuts, beaked hazelnuts, black walnut and the most plentiful are acorns.

And there's plenty of small game to hunt and trap. I don't see that Petrov did this, but I imagine if he was comfortable catching and eating a neighbors duck, he probably took a squirrel or two in his life. The natives would obviously fish, take all kinds of small game, even including rat.
Being known for filing IPRs makes you a "hard target." The trolls will avoid targeting you until they've built up a war chest by settling with all the soft targets.
There just aren’t any other games like it. At first you’re like, oh, okay, this is kind of fun but I don’t see what’s so- and then OH

you really just need to make it though the first thirty minutes, maybe an hour or so, before you crack the game open and realize what it is you’re playing - and then it only gets better from there.
It's true that the trend in the industry definitely goes towards subscriptions and closed eco systems.

We at AirGradient see that very well that more and more companies force their users into the cloud and some monitors even refuse to show current air quality when not registered to the cloud. Imagine you would need to register your fever thermometer with an app in the cloud before you could measure your temperature...

Part of the problem is not only the investors in Matter but also VC funded smart home equipment manufacturers that are pressured to go down the recurring revenue business model.

At AirGradient [1] we want to demonstrate a counter example. Our fully certified air quality monitors are open source hardware and thus we provide the firmware code and they can be easily re-flashed with whatever software you like to use. With this openness a great community has emerged that maintains integrations to various systems like Home Assistant via ESPHome.

The approach by ssh-mitm differs quite significantly as already mentioned by Manfred Kaiser in the issue linked above. Most significantly, ssh-mitm basically establishes two connections (one as a server, one as a client) and forwards messages between the two. This however requires the client to accept the hostkey from the MitM (or the MitM to get a hold on the private key of the server's hostkey). In comparison, our attack manipulates a single connection, without the attacker knowing the hostkey or a client accepting a malicious hostkey. For more details, see the issue here: https://github.com/ssh-mitm/ssh-mitm/issues/165
There are lots of tricky things in English language, but the adjective order doesn't nearly carry the potential for embarrassment as gender-related mistakes.
Public key authentication is actually a Must Implement for SSHv2. Since SSHv1 is long obsolete, any gear that doesn't have pubkey doesn't actually have a de jure SSH implementation.

There are some smart home hubs that support self hosting. Home Assistant and Hubitat are both really good solutions.
Japan's SLIM 'moon sniper' lander arrives in lunar orbit for Christmas
I'm not sure it is difficult to see why variable length SIMD makes sense. If you want to process 15 elements with a width of 8, you will need the function twice, once with SIMD processing whole batches of 8 elements and a scalar version of the same function to process the last 7 elements. This makes it inherently difficult to write SIMD code even in the simple and happy case of data parallelism. With RISC-V all you do is set vlen to 7 in the last iteration.

>what do you even pass to vsetvl in this case as you don’t know your string length.

I'm not sure what you are trying to say here. You must know the length of the buffer, if you don't know the length of the buffer, then processing the string is inherently sequential, just like reading from a linked list, since accessing even a single byte beyond the null terminator risks a buffer overflow. Why pick an example that can't be vectorized by definition?

Well there's two arguments to be made. They 100% gave him the source code in a grab bag of goodies. That's a pretty simple case of he has a right to the disc itself, so he could have just kept it (or resold it) and not published. Them giving him "stuff" was them "buying" the item back, not just them being nice (as you put it).

There's also an argument to be made that the code itself does not infringe on their IP, as this was the lost source code from the old edition of StarCraft (from how I'm reading it in the news). Losing this code specifically made Blizzard restart the project, so it's not even the same project nor a commercially released product.

The former argument is pretty black and white. The latter very tenuous.
I’m going to try it this week so maybe we have a follow up thread??
I am using z-wave as well. It has been rock solid, and using the z-wave association capability I don’t even need the hub (using Hubitat) unless I want to do more complex automations. The only downside is the ecosystem has fewer options (but have been high quality IMO) and the cost is higher than the ubiquitous WiFi smart home devices that require their own apps and internet connection.

Yeah I assumed that's what you were doing, since you mentioned Github blocked specifically. If you need to proxy through a protocol other than SSH, likely need to keep using ProxyCommand.
Ad blocking is no more theft than is blocking crypto miners or a virus turning your computer into a botnet member. This particular form of malware is common, but it's still malware attempting to hijack my computer to do things I did not authorize.

Would you support websites using your GPU to mine crypto coins? It's a more direct form of payment that doesn't create editorial conflicts or involve spying. Even if you're on battery, energy is just the price being charged. Or would you see it as them using your computer without your consent and taking advantage of the horrible security model of the web?

Ad- and spyware should be recognized as what they are: malware. Distributing malware and using someone else's computer for unauthorized purposes is a crime. Doing it to 10 or more computers is a felony. It also gets used to destroy markets by dumping free products onto them. The whole model should be illegal.
I would also say good old small.. but the rest of the adjectives flow as I would expect to hear and say.

I’m not going to shut you down. I’m just going to say that when things are truly bad, you need something to cling onto. When hope is crushed, over and over; when the light at the end of the tunnel is in fact an oncoming train that will also kill you if you fail to dodge; when your view on life turns to thoughts like “is it even worth it ?”, in these sorts of situation, realizing that life could in fact be worse, that you have something to be grateful for can be a crucial life-line to someone who thought they had none left.

Is it healthy for a person living under normal circumstance ? Probably not. Is it useful for someone in extremis? From personal anecdote only, I would say so. YMMV.

This is a dangerous suggestion. Using advice of counsel as a defense to willful infringement is not always successful, and this would be especially true if counsel’s advice is that the patent should be invalidated (rather than your technology not infringing).
Is there any solid research published on that? The anecdotal evidence I’ve heard from people at pretty large companies was that it only helped with a modest reduction the lowest-skill phishing, whereas actually securing their systems had far more impact.

Netflix does not offer 1080p+ content to people watching on a Linux desktop. There is no technical reason for this, Linux browsers are capable of playing 1080p+ content of course. So why do you think Netflix does this?

Rather than deal with hypotheticals let's focus on reality, a lot of people have put a lot of effort into ensuring that web browsers can run the same content on every platform. This is already a solved problem, even if imperfect.

The only genuine reason a device might not be able to play a browser supported 4k video is because it's too resource expensive (rare) and this is simply an immutable property of computers that isn't going to change unless you are expecting all users to use the exact same hardware forever.
