Free-as-in-libre is different from free-as-in-beer.

However, I do agree when the majority of FOSS consumers speak of it the F stands for free-as-in-beer, not free-as-in-libre, and tar and feather anyone who would dare pay or take money.

Maybe, although I wonder if the guy having the surname "Jaile" contributed to unconscious bias. People do like the idea of nominative determinism...

I have used EVT quite a lot in my work as SRE.

It's a pity it is not well known among SRE or production engineers, unless you have a personal interest or math background.
It is a psychological thing. Some people find it really hard to assert themselves when faced with dominant personalities. Differences in culture, gender, etc, can be a factor. The article mentions that at the time her English skills were still developing, and that may have also played a role.

That's not to say any of this entirely excuses what she did, but it helps put it in perspective. It was also the fault of other members of the jury, who were more concerned with obtaining superficial agreement than convinced agreement.

None. So we inherently distrust their testimony.

But now take a system that works in 99% of cases, and that system said you are guilty.

I guarantee most judges will find this enough evidence to convict. Look at the post master scandal.

They won’t even audit the systems.
Yes thats true, but the end goal is to remove all value from that system that it no longer has any support. It's the long game that nobody wants to play. I think Gandhi had the right idea.

Apple is big in sub-contracting manufacturing for all there products. And there are thise shops for cars as well, e.g. Magna. And those are really good at that. Same goes forbdesign and development, if you want.

Still surprised Apple is really doing it so, the automotive market is cut throat, mostly low margin. But we will see.
Something about this doesn’t add up for me.

Article states that “…. the message triggered alarm bells after being picked up via Gatwick's Wi-Fi network”.

This doesn’t make sense. Snapchat doesn’t use E2E encryption for chats, but they do use TLS. So unless they got him to install a root CA onto his device (which I also don’t think would make a difference due to SSL pinning) I don’t believe this to be true.

Feels to me like he was either already being monitored by UK security services via a compromised device / the cooperation of Snapchat, or someone reported him.

Also, was this a bad idea and a tasteless joke, yes. But if all he did was send a bad joke to a private group of friends, I feel this is an overreaction and proof as to why we need E2E encryption widely.

My favorite insights:

- Most software design should focus on information graphic design, not interaction design

- The case study of Amazon’s book listings drives that point home

- Try using sentences to describe settings rather than have a list of toggles (illustrated with his BART widget)

- Instead of requiring interaction, make decisions for the user based on context
The harddisks were too loud? So he wants to turn it off, when not in use?

The harddisks should be spinning down when not in use. If they're not spinning down, that's the problem he should go after.

Plus, if they're actually loud, then he has crappy mounts and a crappier case.
This only work if it's a leaf function that will throw away the result. If you feed the result of your --fast-math function into other working code you risk breaking it.
Not to truck in stereotypes, but many of the British men I have known take “banter” to extremes and then say “just joking, mate.” I’d expect a pretty different distribution of responses in rural Thailand or South Compton or Rio.
If you have them, but don't want them, you can throw them out. If you don't have them, but want them (as does anyone who doesn't build in release mode when developing), you're out of luck.

Sure, you can rebuild the standard library, but it's a lot simpler to strip the output than set things up so the first time you want debug symbols, it has to rebuild std, cache it somewhere, not rebuild it again on the next build, but be sure to invalidate that cache the next time std gets updated.

And in general, not wanting debug symbols is the last step in development, before making your first release. Before then, you pretty much always want those debug symbols, except for when you're benchmarking binary size or something.

So if they were going to ship std without debug symbols, they'd probably just be better off not shipping a prebuilt std at all, as pretty much everyone would end up having to build it on first run of 'cargo build' anyway. (Which is maybe fine, actually?)

So basically it confirms again that the role of the police and the justice system is not to find the guilty, but to find someone to make everyone feel comfortable with the system working. A type of a sacrificial lamb for the civilized world. Of course we know who the predominantly white police force will consider for the role. Puts into perspective why there are over 2 million black Americans in prison.

I asked Carlos who he thought bore the brunt of the blame for DNA evidence not showing up in his trial: the police, the DA, or his own attorney, Gibson. “Straight-up crooked cops,” he said. “That’s all it was. Plain and simple.”
Followup: I just tested OpenWrt 23.05.2 + luci-app-sqm + cake with https://speed.cloudflare.com/

With the limit set to 1 Mbps (1000/1000), my upload latency dropped from 80ms to 25ms, but speed was hard-limited to 1000/1000. With the limit rasied to 1G/1G, cake stopped working and my upload latency returned to 80ms.

So I stand by my original comment. You still have to configure the speed limits manually.
There is a massive time Vs money tradeoff with boats.

You can do it for almost zero money (perhaps $100/month) if you put many hours per day into maintaining the boat yourself and making everything you need yourself.

Or you can pay for good gear and get all maintenance done by a professional and your canal boat will be costing more like $3000/month - and when you do that, it becomes a rich persons hobby.
I'm not trying to be rude, but what does your comment have to do with the actual article linked. I suspect you're commenting based solely on the title? If you read the article it mentions 90% reduction if you remove the debug symbols from the rust std lib that get bundled in the final hello world binary. A conversation about Java's size and abstraction is quite irrelevant to the article.
This post feels taken straight out of my mind. I've never been good at being just another cog. My value as an engineer comes not from the things that I'm told to do, but from the things I choose to do because I think they're important or worthwhile.

I've frustrated just about every manager I've had because of this. On the flip side, my spirit has allowed me to pursue paths others had dismissed. This has led to many situations where I've accomplished something that was thought to be impossible, or made significant improvements that compound and would not have been prioritized otherwise.
Stripped via -s or via strip?
Recently I re-wrote my personal homepage (which was previously written in Vue.js) and the homepage for my discord bot in PHP (w/ smarty, and some CSS copied from Bootstrap).

For one of my other projects, my discord bot dashboard (which uses MongoDB and lots of boilerplate stuff for interacting with MongoDB), I'm using ASP.NET Core and Boostrap. It does the job, and it does it quite well.
well that’s arbitrary.
That's the point of what I called "the necessary refinement". If there is more stuff, stuff gets cheaper without a matching decrease in your salary. If there is less money, stuff gets cheaper and there is also a matching decrease in your salary.

But in either case, the problems associated with deflation come from the actions people take to prepare for it, not from the consequences of it having already happened.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38634298
The article talks about how "hello world" binary size can be part of the first impression someone new to your language has. Java is a nice illustration of that. Rust probably isn't, because many of Rust's abstractions are zero-cost, so it's not as obvious a comparison.
Identify what it is you hate, then validate whether it's actually warranted by writing a toy application that addresses the issues. If successful, call it "Therapeutic coding" and write a pretentious medium/substack article on it

Close tab.
At a high level, most distributed data systems look something like MapReduce, and that's really just fancy divide-and-conquer. It's hard to reason about, and most data at this size is tabular, so you're usually better off using something where you can write a SQL query and let the query engine do the low-level map-reduce work.
I never understood why strip's "--strip-unneeded" flag wasn't the default. Leaving that out can often enough give you a binary that just doesn't work.

Safe Deposit Boxes Aren’t Safe (NYT, 2019)

> There are an estimated 25 million safe deposit boxes in America, and they operate in a legal gray zone within the highly regulated banking industry. There are no federal laws governing the boxes; no rules require banks to compensate customers if their property is stolen or destroyed.

> Every year, a few hundred customers report to the authorities that valuable items — art, memorabilia, diamonds, jewelry, rare coins, stacks of cash — have disappeared from their safe deposit boxes. Sometimes the fault lies with the customer. People remove items and then forget having done so. Others allow children or spouses access to their boxes, and don’t realize that they have been removing things. But even when a bank is clearly at fault, customers rarely recover more than a small fraction of what they’ve lost — if they recover anything at all. The combination of lax regulations and customers not paying attention to the fine print of their box-leasing agreements allows many banks to deflect responsibility when valuables are damaged or go missing...

> Wells Fargo’s safe-deposit-box contract caps the bank’s liability at $500. Citigroup limits it to 500 times the box’s annual rent, while JPMorgan Chase has a $25,000 ceiling on its liability. Banks typically argue — and courts have in many cases agreed — that customers are bound by the bank’s most-current terms, even if they leased their box years or even decades earlier.

The console itself is practically a loss leader, it's buying the games that's sketchy :P

Broadly anti-nintendo (good games, sketchy company), extremely pro- modding and homebrew, mostly pro-piracy, but firmly against the commercialization of piracy.

Making things available for free is good, taking things just so you can profit from them yourself is bad - and that's how I see MigSwitch et al.

The why is kind of incredibly important though in law.
The concept is quite alive, and the fancy deep learning have it: jax.lax.map, jax.lax.reduce.

It's going to stay because it is useful:

Any operation that you can express with an associative behavior is automatically parallelizeable. And both in Spark and Torch/Jax this means scalable to a cluster, with the code going to the data. This is the unfair advantage of solving bigger problems.

If you were talking about the Hadoop ecosystem, then yes Spark pretty much nailed it and is dominant (no need to have another implementation)
Oh, rad, I didn't know accents worked like that! So if I speak to my kids in English, and my wife speaks to them in Finnish, they'll get to grow up with a disconcerting mix of newscaster English and northern Finnish drawl.

Ignore anything about “locking” your credit, because this made up term is not the one that has been defined by Congress. “Freezing” your credit is the real action, and it also must be free of charge. The direct links are useful, because the CRAs definitely want to mislead you into purchasing unnecessary services.

The problem with measuring the accuracy of juries, is what do you measure them against? Whether the person is really guilty? In the general case, you can't actually know that.

Even for people who are wrongfully convicted, we can't always say the jury made the wrong call. In many of those cases, the conviction is overturned due to new evidence being discovered, or because the police or prosecution wrongly hid exculpatory evidence from the jury, or because the defendant's lawyer was grossly incompetent – in those cases, it is entirely possible the jury made the right call given the evidence actually presented to them, even if it turned out ultimately to be the wrong one.
SF is suing CPUC ( California Public Utilities Commission) that allowed Google and General Motors’ autonomous car companies to expand here this summer, despite causing a pattern of “serious problems” on the streets.

The lawsuit essentially asks the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to review whether its August decision, which allowed Waymo to operate 24/7 paid taxi service around the city, was compliant with the law. This legal action does not impact Cruise, as it already lost its permits to operate in California last year after one of its cars struck a jaywalking pedestrian and dragged her for about 20 feet.

Some negative feedback on the PUC:

CPUC shows its inbred corruption
It guards company profits, fleeces consumers

I suppose it is for discussing, but does the discussion actually promote justice? Afterall, that's why we have juries. I am not sure whether the deliberation actually increases or decreases false verdicts.
Noise is relative to the environmental noise.

I have a Synology NAS that was silent, but recently upgraded the HDDs to Toshiba NAS drives as they're very well regarded by backblaze and reviews. But they are noisy, the chunking sounds of seeks is audible almost throughout my apartment, the case and mounting is just fine thank you, sometimes the drive models are just very noisy and the environment is just very quiet.

For me it's fine, it's just a new sound in the background along with the hum of the fridge and gentle clicking of the boiler coming on and off, and yes my drivers stop spinning when not in use (but I share my Plex with my partner who listens to our music at her work).
Yep. And if staying in business means keeping your website secure, well, isn’t that the goal?

I think part of the problem is that hacker movies make people think hacking is inevitable. Like you can’t actually protect your site and your data from the average punk on roller skates, so why bother? But that’s not true at all. Gmail has - as far as we know - never been breached by anything short of a nation state attacker. And I’m sure a lot of people have tried. You just need to actually care about security and follow best practices (like doing audits / red team and keep up to date with security patches). But most companies only seem interested in properly investing in security if it’s an existential threat.

I am also starting to learn, and I don't know if it can be applied to my real problems.

I chose the Lamport learning path. I love that guy and how he thinks and writes. I am reading the book (I bought it in paper, but there is a free version online), watching the video courses, and reading the PlusCal tutorial online.

I enjoy the path and the enlightenment when describing a system with math. Human language has too many ambiguities, very little precision, and is verbose to express some ideas.
As a non American, I don't understand how juries are compatible with the entire idea of a fair justice system. I'm very very glad they don't exist where I live. The whole idea of "being judged by your peers" is lovely on paper but cases like this show how stupid this is.

You need to minimise the debating. Especially if it shows to be based on assumptions.

Debating is also used as a human interaction tool for "feeling part of" or "being good enough" and it's especially clear in a startup and early company setting where everyone kind of tries to show their own merits to the rest of the group.

It's unhealthy to debate a lot and it's a clear sign that there is either too much uncertainty, too much ego, too little subjective evidence or simply too shallow leadership.

Debating should be very surgical and not attempt to either look into the future or favor the most outspoken.
I see. I still feel this must be carefully thought out, because although exercises are being discussed online, this platform could potentially outright distribute them all at once in a centralised manner. And it can be a source of tension, specially without attribution (I've grown a bit more sensitive to this issue after realising how much effort goes into producing good exercises, like Advent of Code for programmers).

I think there would be value in knowing a given exercise comes from chapter X of book Y; it might even help track knowledge dependencies, so to say (to solve exercise Z, student probably needs exposure to all chapters between X-3 and X). And it could also be possible to build thorough different levels of exercises in different areas: a set of basic computation exercises (invert this matrix; solve this simple integral) - and these exercises, as you probably know, can be generated easily; some intermediate exercises of theorem applications; and then groups of higher difficulty material (which are probably somewhat more creative exercises).

Anyway, this is really an inspiring project and I hope it brings you lots of joy! and, in case it helps anyone, I've found a good trove of mathematics resources over at https://math.libretexts.org/Bookshelves.
