It had a variant "Windows 3.11 for Workgroups" (1993-11), which was the second Microsoft OS with built-in networking, after "Windows 3.1 for Workgroups" (1992-10).

I have actually used "Windows 3.11 for Workgroups" with some coaxial-cable Ethernet NE2000 cards, but I do not remember what network protocols were used.

With all earlier MS-DOS or Windows versions third party networking solutions had to be used.

I didn’t say it’s true of all European countries. To my knowledge, France or Italy for example isn’t nearly as reliant on seasonal farm labor. The Netherlands has always been more in the neoliberal side of the line for Europe.

Bit they don't. The most of the ssh attacks come from the same 10 addresses from China Telecom. Sometimes they don't change for.months. Maybe it is some country sponsored attack organisation or maybe just carrier grade nat.
If playing with a bunch of buttons to see what happens is frowned upon, we have the worst possible denial of service attack on entire humanity by dumbing everyone down. It was not a given that toilet would get disabled and now the problem can be reported to manufacturer and fixed. If someone made it a habit to keep disabling toilets in every train deliberately, different story. Although fixing the flaw is still the most practical solution.
The correlation is most likely that, power lines are unsightly and people don't want to live near them, so it's actually measuring socioeconomic status.

Some sort of electrostatic attraction of pollutants is another idea that gets floated.
Well, I think the issue isn't the research exactly, it's the motivations behind doing the research.

Like, if it was determined tomorrow, with a huge article in nature or another journal that's suitably popular/prestigious that intelligence (and rewards for the sake of this thread) is totally inherited or even 80% inherited, what material changes would you want/expect to see in society in relation to that news.

>Windows 3.11 had any built in networking anyway

*Update:* Yes, looks like it uses the networking stuff provides by MS-DOS.

MS-DOS has NETSTART.BAT and PROTOCOL.INI that initializes TCP/IP with IP address and subnet mask.

When you look how a passenger information system in the trains boots up you can see how it shows BIOS information (floppy drive connected, serial and parallel port available, no harddisks) then it boots MS-DOS, initializes a XMS RAM disk, initializes parallel port, loads Crystal ENDS2ISA ethernet drivers, microsoft DOS TCP/IP protocol driver, and TCP/P MEMM driver, and calls NETBIND.COM.
The plan for Germany was to give out climate money to everyone. E.g. all additional funds acquired through increased carbon taxes where supposed to be equally returned to the population on a per head basis. Turns out even Germany does not have a Government process for that. And parts of the current coalition, which happen to be tasked with creating that process, are more interested in stalling implementation as long as possible.
Many people accuse Isreal in apartheid without realising at all what it means.

Do you for example know why Isreal built fenced borders in Gaza and West Bank?

In period between 2000-2005 over 700 Jewish civilians were killed in terrorist attacks coming from these territories.

Attacks basically stopped after the fences were built.
That happened way before. RFID cards for disposable public transportation tickets or those music greeting cards.
The battery life is closer to two days, definitely not less than a day.
It might be a myth, but I seem to remember the ASICs used to flicker older LED designs were often repurposed from audio greeting cards. The light was actually just Happy Birthday playing through an LED or bulb rather than a speaker.
>"When computers revealed all those smaller copies of the Mandelbrot set within itself, Douady and Hubbard wanted to explain their presence. They ended up turning to what’s known as renormalization theory, a technique that physicists use to tame infinities in the study of quantum field theories, and to connect different scales in the study of phase transitions."

I suspect most early Windows 3 machines were networked via Novell Netware.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novell

Oddly enough my MS-DOS machine while in grad school was networked via a product made by Apple that allowed it to connect to a Mac network. My only use was accessing the department laser printer, but that was huge.
Does anyone else have the experience that almost every single one of the 'attacks' is using HTTP and not following a 301 redirect to HTTPS? I have my internet-facing web server set up to redirect all HTTP -> HTTPS and this thwarts almost every 'attack'. I have to say, they're not very smart about it.

Yeah, maybe. Money is not the only issue. Battle-hardened troops simply take a long time to be replaced. The early 5th century saw lots of infighting between eastern and western emperors and ambitious provincial rulers, which predictably depleted the army and emptied the coffers of the empire. The Eastern Empire fared better because it was more affluent and more densely settled than the western half.

The fall of the western empire is more accurately described as a fragmentation, after which live mostly went on like it did before. The true downfall of Roman civilization in Italy happened during the decades-long unsuccessful attempt by the Eastern Empire to recover the peninsula.

Didn't know that, but yeah I could totally see that making Lewis more sympathetic.

I've never particularly liked SBF even before he imploded, but I don't want him spending the rest of his life in jail for a non-violent crime. I'd rather see him banned from finance and banking and sentenced to a million or so hours of teaching programming and computer science to underserved poor children, or something similarly constructive. He has these amazing skills that could be put work benefitting society, and instead we lock him away so the prison-industrial complex can profit. Such a waste, let's rethink that.
To start, no decelerator should take the commission to $0, period. :)

Most companies don't do decelerators but require reps to get permission from their manager for anything out of the ordinary. Examples are deals that require non-trivial engineering time, annual deals with quarterly payments, or 3-year deals that allow the customer to exit at year one. If you want to avoid that permission step, I can't think of many ways to do it without decelerators -- but maybe others can.
You think you know better how to spend Derek Siver's son's time than he does?

A core of the 4770 (curl is single threaded) can't even manage a full order of magnitude more plain AES encryption throughput - ignoring it also has to be done into small packets and decrypted on the same machine.
I read a quote once that said something like.

"The main issue with modern psychology is that we have reams and reams of data and experiments on rich, white, college age people but nothing else. This data is the foundation of most psychology teachings."

Another meaningless study of rich white people is what this sounds like. Yeah of course a bunch of rich college people have been taught to value climbing the social ladder right in front of them the few remaining rungs to the top. When you are poor and realize you have to climb a mountain first to even get to the ladder the incremental rewards are not as important as the resilience to getting knocked back down again and again.

Highest tier Netflix. Apple TV 4K / older Samsung Plasma 1080p in perfect shape. All the other apps video quality is fine. On Netflix it’s just dreadful most of the time, only sometimes is it ok/acceptable.

I’m currently in a temporary place— but it was the same crap quality a few months ago on the other side of the country, with a different internet provider, and an LG C1, native TV app or Apple TV, made no difference— utter crap (HD or 4K didn’t matter- the 4K HDR/DV was just a different flavor of badness) whilst all the other apps were perfectly OK.

This is "law" from an European (EU) perspective. The foundations differ in English and US law. I've always thought it would be interesting to compare them in the same way computer scientists compare the design choices in different operating systems. At the top level the same outcomes are desirable, but the lower levels and choices of abstractions are different.
Hmm thanks for the detailed response. It does sound interesting if Google Maps and WhatsApp can be had in an Android OS, but trustable locked down such that they cannot read location, files(other than the ones explicitly allowed to), microphone etc. It sounds truly compromise free if it also works with Android Auto.

I’ll ask a colleague who posted his Pixel 6a for sale to loan it for a few days and try it out.
You bank switch then. A common use would be to e.g. be able to use the ROM to load code into the RAM under the ROM and then bank switch, but also e.g. for extensions where you might want to first copy the ROM into the underlying ROM, and then patch whatever changes you wanted into before bank switching.
Unfortunately the site in general has gotten increasingly unhinged lately. One of those is a literal "well, actually" defending torture!

when you use someone else's software that you haven't written nor audited to see what all it actually does, yes, it's hard.

if you write your own code to do specifically what is necessary and nothing else, no, it's quite easy.
> I'm regularly seeing bit flips.

How?
While I am not concerned with memorising every IP address I use, I do type and search IP addresses quite frequently; I work with addresses at the command prompt as parameters to command line utilties and in files, such as /etc/hosts and much larger files that contain hundreds of thousands of IP addresses, often using an editor such as ed, sed, vi or custom filters I have written in C. Needless to say, IPv4 addresses are easier to work with.

When I check weather I use an IP address not a domain name. This can be quite useful on a smartphone where I generally cannot control DNS. This is an IPv4 address. As one might imagine, I have memorised it. Often this will work on public wifi without having to "sign in".

I like IPv4.

The recognition of emergent properties can exist even in materialism. Reducing to a sum-of-parts with "bag of electric meat" is essentially a strawman ad hominem.
Presumably, this was supposed to show how parent's arguments can equally well argue for the opposite or for something nonsensical. However, it seems incoherent to me (in a way that parent does not).

I think stickyness in the three "bad" quadrants is what makes something a friendship. A transactional view can't survive difficult times and survival of difficult times is what makes a friendship a friendship. YMMV.
Unfortunately the field of observational statistics called "psychometrics" which has "proved" this using "twin studies" is largely bunk.

The premise of those studies is linear additive effects from each causal factor, which is almost certainly false; and in general, there is no way of establishing causation without interventional experiments. If the effects were plausibly non-linear, we would need 1 trillion+ data points even to establish statistically significant differences.

These fields are all cargo-cult stats, putting data into GUIs and printing pro-forma reports. The people involved are in way over their heads, to the degree that there isnt anything to "reproduce" let alone try to reproduce the experiments: they dont have any.

The whole thing is little more than principle component analysis on astrological star data.
Oh man… PDP-11. It’s scary to ponder how much critical infrastructure runs on obsolete systems that a vanishingly small number of people understand.
No. But nearly all larger meetings are online (Hangout, it used to be) and sometimes they're recorded. So IF they've recorded it, presumably they have to preserve it now.

Ah, that would have made DOS game piracy so much easier.
Actually the benchmarks just measure the first part (cpu efficiency) since it’s a localhost benchmark. The gap will be most likely due to missing GSO if it’s not implemented. Its such a huge difference, and pretty much the only thing which can prevent QUIC from being totally inefficient.
I've heard on panspermia in relation to Earth.

Might not be as dumb as it sounds. It doesn't sound like it's their current product, and it's not unreasonable for a customer to want a guarantee that a train is going to keep working the same way for 30 years, and not need completely retesting from scratch just because Microsoft made a new release. If it's not networked, there's no security issue.

It's a bit sad that our initial expectation, that software would be like mathematics, where you can keep building on previous results no matter if they were from last year or last millennia, didn't work out.
Ethics aren't binary nor are they black and white. I chose to draw my line where I did, you may draw yours wherever you like. I'm not here to judge, simply answering a question.

With the right conditions underneath AC power lines, you can light (dimly) a standard fluorescent tube by, literally, grounding one end of it.

Gets turned into an art project now and then: https://www.bbc.co.uk/bristol/content/madeinbristol/2004/02/...

If the current is indeed enough to cause the tube to glow, touching the air-end of the tube with your finger will increase the coupling with the overhead lines (you're salt water - good conductor) and the brightness will increase. Personally, I don't like to walk under HV power lines. I know it's safe. And yet, so very unsettling to think of the sea of power being waded through.

Did you bother reading it?

“Historically, many studies have involved the easiest people to recruit, who tend to be people who come from advantaged environments. If we don’t make efforts to recruit diverse pools of participants, we almost always end up with children and adults who come from high-income, high-education environments,” Gabrieli says. “Until recently, we did not realize that principles of brain development vary in relation to the environment in which one grows up, and there was very little evidence about the influence of SES.”

Without this very type of study one could mistakenly do exactly what you’re accusing them of doing. I also didn’t see race mentioned. I’d assume the opposite of your presumption i.e. that this finding would stand regardless of race.

> About 1000 cards now. We do it daily. It's often just a few cards per day, so it takes 1-5 minutes.

1000 cards over 5-6 years is 160-200 per year, so on average less than one a day. Did you start out slow and increased the pace as he grew, or is it more of chunking (e.g. add a few cards per day for some days, then just review for days before adding more)?

I'm sure whatever approach you did was organic and not planned the way I'm writing it, but am curious how it actually evolved.

> Recognizing countries on the map is not trivial. On the playground, he met a kid from Syria. He asked the boy if he lived closer to Turkey, Iraq, Jordan, or Lebanon.

OK, this is beyond simply recognizing the country from its shape. How did he encode what the neighboring countries are?

When learning the countries, does the card show only the outline of that country, or is it more like a map with all countries, and the one under review is highlighted? If the latter, then it makes sense.

At a certain point it's more about the semantics of what a "computer" is. I don't know if I'd count an ASIC from a musical greeting card, though; and even within general purpose devices, microcontrollers vs microprocessors are typically delineated by the presence of an MMU.
