Apple is not going to make a hardware change like your suggestion, but they would be much more likely use the software concept from TFA. I'm assuming that Googs, Samsung, CCPhardware would be similar. They need to do something compelling with all of the specific compute they are including in their devices.
For what it's worth, 1Password Passkeys works fine in this use case. I suspect it may be a subtlety in how BitWarden works.

In my opinion, he did win. The document clearly favours Jon as the other side admitted they have no evidence and made baseless claims - stuck their nose where they shouldn’t have.

Make no mistake that this was a serious character assassination based on zero proof or involvement from authorities.

This was not a bunch of IRC friends doing a prank for the lolz but an open letter with signatures from prominent community members.

I can understand why someone would feel inclined to do something like that, but you ought to consider the repercussions of your actions when it comes to attacking a person based on “word of mouth” evidence.

A lot of the stuff he mentions he wants I kept thinking "Oh, you want common lisp!"

I dabbled in some game dev in CL and loved it. I think the ideal would be low level engine, lisp on top driving it. If you could do it without the FFI barrier slowing things down a crazy amount, it would be the killer combo.

I don't think so, because there isn't a performance drawback compared to threads when using async. In fact there's literally nothing preventing you from using a thread per task as your future runtime and just blocking on `.await` (and implementing something like that is a common introduction to how async executors run under the hood so it's not particularly convoluted).

Sure there's no reason to do that, because non-blocking syscalls are just better, but you can…

Much of the dysfunction would be tamed if every site had sensible filters (the more powerful the better). That wide-eyed influencer spouting nonsense through their title and thumbnail? Gone.

When the common space gets too polluted, users must be empowered to moderate it for their own use. People are the best curators. And there's potential value in this curation for discovery too.

Then there's the issue of durability. The only safe place is your local storage. We need a standard to make web sites and content into proper self-contained objects. Content-addressed, versioned, resharable. No more brokenness like on archive.org (I adore it btw), just one click to get you an article or an entire interactive blog or wiki that you can archive and redistribute through a(n overlay) network of your choice. Many of the necessary components exist and there's no technical reasons for this not to work.

Maybe you could also host distributed forums or services this way. This together with the ability to self-moderate might help us back on track.

There's a lot more to envision about this new web (or internet in general), but I'll leave it at that. It's gonna be a basket of measures. As long as we nerds still have it in us we can rebuild from the ashes. Take a deep breath; I think things can become like they were, if we make it through this valley.

There's a psychological aspect to this as well. Are we still the same that we used to be? Can we become them again and do we want to? That, everyone will have to answer for themselves.

Note that this board runs RK1's (which use the RK3588 SoC), not Raspberry Pis.

It burns 18.5W with CPU cores maxed out, producing 224 Gflops of compute (see: https://github.com/geerlingguy/top500-benchmark/issues/27). Efficiency-wise, it's a little more power efficient than at least last-gen AMD/Intel chips, and a little less than Ampere CPUs and Apple's M1. I haven't had a chance to compare to M2/M3 for power efficiency yet.

The Turing Pi 2 has a BMC that allows out-of-band management, and the firmware is fairly stable at this point, and the community helped build a nice CLI for it so IMO it's even nicer (from automation/remote sysadmin aspect) than IPMI for some things. There's no remote VNC/display, but these aren't meant to have displays (even though node 1 has HDMI routed to a connector on the back).

The most crippling thing for my use cases is the single 1 Gbps connection externally, and the internal 1 Gbps Ethernet switching. It'd be nice if it did at least 2.5 Gbps.

Totally agree. I have used fido2 and webauthn before and I liked it. Particularly with a hardware key the mental model is quite straightforward. Now with that Microsoft, Google and syncing business I am left totally confused. Why the hell should alI store a private key in some cloud?? What happens if that provider decides to terminate my account, if it gets pressured to release the key? Also how does this all work with Windows Hello and other things in between???

1) I’ve had a career in tech for—holy shit, way too long. I’ve never had an interview that was terribly close to a FAANG-type one. I’ve also never had a hiring process take more than a week from interview to offer.

2) I don’t make FAANG money but I’ve consistently earned 2.5x+ median for a person my age in my area (I’m in like a 3rd tier US city, couple million people, several tech headquarters, a couple of which are household names)

3) FAANG interviews are a game. The point of how awful it is and how prep-necessary is to selection-bias the pool so the vast majority of candidates are suitable, to select for only those who want it bad enough (and/or have lots of free time), to make jumping to peer companies difficult to keep wages down (if that last weren’t the case, they’d find a way to stop doing it for people who’d already passed it one or more times—the process is expensive) and finally to build esprit de corps via hazing (hazing is very effective at that). Don’t take it personally.

Yes, that is why once regulatory exclusivity is removed, the market price tends to be based more or less on the manufacturing cost.
The squares of primes become memorable if you've ever tried searching for primes in your head. That's because 7*7 is the smallest product of prime factors that are all larger than or equal to 7: in other words, you can check for the primality of numbers smaller than that by testing for division by 2, 3, or 5 only, because they must divide by one of those or be prime.

Because of this pointless mental exercise it also sticks in my mind that 11 squared is 121 and 13 squared is 169 (though the presence of 69 helps with that one).

Strong disagree, art direction is about how the game looks. For example this is their choices for how to render the scene and how they achieved that technically: https://x.com/glecollinet/status/1783805898428715070

I honestly don't understand how you could look at something with that strong a visual style and think there was no intention.
So lets zoom in on point 5 on your list:

> There are root causes to the disproportionate incarceration of African Americans that do not boil down to "the system is racist."

To claim that there are other root causes then systematic racism behind mass incarceration of black people, is placing a lot of heavy lifting on the other. It is reasonable to assume that a person holding this belief means “cultural” or, worse, “biological”. In either case, it is a racist view to hold. A conservative democrat can hold this belief, and many indeed do, however, they cannot claim to be leftists at that point, and most actually don’t. They may call them selves “moderate democrats” but I’ve never heard them call them selves “moderately left” (I’m willing to admit I’m wrong here if shown otherwise).

The leftist belief here is that systematic racism exists, and is the reason black people are disproportionately incarcerated. To reject this belief, isn’t a moderate version of the traditional leftist belief. It is counter to it. Therefor, if you reject the existence of systematic racism, you are not a moderate leftist, you simply aren’t a leftist.

Sure. The drug companies should be able to recoup their initial investment and also make a healthy profit as well. Nobody expects them to develop and manufacture something for free.

However, this must be based on their actual cost and not an arbitrary figure, which in the article was revealed to be roughly $34M real cost compared to $3B as it was advertised for lobbying purposes.

What is the best way to protect private ventures but also prevent them from sucking the public funds and the entire population dry? Transparency. Let's see where the money is being spent and compare it with other companies to see what's really happening here. The society doesn't allow vital resources like water, and recently internet be priced at extraordinary numbers, and control how much profit you can make. Maybe there should be even a cap at 100% profit, or 300%, or let's say 500%. But once a company starts selling a life saving drug at 17 thousand times the cost of developing AND manufacturing it, then there's something definitely wrong in that industry and the market must be investigated.

most of the leetcode problems are based on material that a new grad CS major would have learned recently from taking a class that uses CLRS as the textbook. if this background is assumed then the key to success becomes building problem solving skills.

if you haven't very recently taken a class that uses CLRS as the textbook, then it makes sense you would have to do more memorization and practice with those concepts.

> My impression is that this is due to their non-robust programming style.

It's been 50+ years. I don't think that it's worthwhile just telling the programmer to do a better job.

> They do not add fallback behavior when e.g. receiving a null object. It would still be a bug, but could be a log entry instead of crash.

This is a pretty big feedback loop:

* The programmer puts the null into the code
* The code is released
* The right conditions occur and the player triggers it
* IF DONE SKILLFULLY AND CORRECTLY the game is able to recover from the null-dereference, write it out to a log, and get that log back to the developers.
* The programmer takes the null out of the code.

If you don't do the first step, you don't get stuck doing the others either.

The fact that intro math classes don't do proofs (Type B) is because of the same pressure from people who only want to do Type A.

Due to internal changes in my uni, for the first time, my freshmen year, the math department taught proper proof-based Calculus 101 (from Apostle of all books) to all majors. Then the engineers and biologists complained so much, they had to cut out a lot of proofs from Calculus 102. There were even more complaints, so by second year, there were hardly any proofs in the core math courses. In a few years, the calculus courses had become devoid of proofs.

Some unis have separate intro courses for math majors, but it's very difficult to offer them in the current economic climate.

If the Flint water crisis is one of the largest in state government, state governments are doing an exceedingly good job:

"Even at the height of the crisis, testing in children showed blood lead levels that were essentially the same as the Michigan average and far lower than Detroit, which had a safe water supply the entire time. During the whole of the crisis (which encompassed 18 months in 2014-15), the number of Flint children with elevated lead levels was 3.9%. In Detroit it was 8.1%."

> What exactly is the problem and how can it be rectified?

California has a smaller water budget than before. Use has to be cut from somewhere, and to date, those cuts have been disproportionately borne by the 10% that goes to urban users.

There should be a fixed amount of water every farm and household gets for free, and after that, a market rate for it. (This is complicated by the history of Western water rights.)

> will also massively cut production because local farm can't compete with overseas crop prices

The world doesn't have that much arable land [1]. America has most of it (and somewhat uniquley, a growing share), and moreover, it's bang next to the world's largest consumers. Those are difficult built-in advantages to fuck up. (I'm not even counting the various federal agricultural subisides and trade protections.)

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arable_land
In my case, it is the latter.

I very intentionally figured that I want to "retain" my problem so that I could test with my own product whether it at least addresses my original problem.

That being said, I am a bit nuts! I can go into decision paralyses if I don't know all the variables.
In Star Trek, there's still scarcity of Galaxy Class Starships, as well as great scarcity of commisions for captains of Galaxy Class Starships.

Once one thing becomes abundant, other things start to feel more scarce.

Where I live in California, we have an abundance of food, wealth, and materials for building homes. What is scarce is permission to actually build. Which sends housing prices through the roof, which then causes labor prices to go through the roof, which makes building itself more expensive.

The politics will always be challenging, and I think most examples in the real world point to the politics of distribution to be more challenging than the act of production.
IDK about your philosophy, but any death that is 100% unavoidable invalidates the entire system of business that has been built.

Cutting all ties to China (in escalating trade wars) surely will hurt local development, too. You think there will be much practical education without cheap Chinese electronics?

Chinese economic influence is rapidly expanding all over the globe. In the long run, losing the US market will become less of a threat.

It’s always the last place you look, because you’d need to have lost your mind to keep looking after you’d found it.

This is true even if you find it the first place you look.

A big part of the issue is too readily discounting or assuming where it isn’t too early. It’s often better to methodically search sections and areas at a time in a thorough process of elimination even of places you know it isn’t, just as a matter of practicality, and so the process of elimination is actually fully eliminating possibilities, and not just confirming biases.
