Old artists certainly do that kind of thing.

Let’s take somebody I actually really respect, the Pet Shop Boys. (They’re practically a one-hit wonder in America but had numerous hit records in Europe.)

Within the past month, PSB has released a new album “Nonetheless” to favorable reviews, but they also released an EP called “Furthermore” with completely new recordings of some of their best-known hits. Recently they also collaborated with British post-punk group Sleaford Mods on a cover and remix of “West End Girls.”

There’s an audience who enjoys all this. Why shouldn’t they both put out new material and work with others to rejuvenate the old? For someone who never liked their brand of melancholy synthpop, it’s beating a dead horse. For the fans, it’s keeping alive something that deserves it.

I’m wondering that too. I don’t usually have issues finding good sources in my usual studies, but I am definitely struggling with this academic cybersecurity stuff! In psychology (my usual discipline at the moment) I have journals, authors/academics, and books I know of and trust.

Here’s an example of a sentence from an article I’ve read today about the Eternal Blue Vulnerability used in the WannaCry Ransomware attack:
“Since the discovery of the vulnerability, the cybersecurity industry has taken a number of steps to try the issue from the negative.”

- I can’t understand if that is specific lingo to the cybersecurity industry, or just bad English.

Ummm like what? Tell me what are there problems that we need to worry about where a battle over “economic resources” is you know… not a part of the solution or problem.

Also if we are talking democracy and representation- it’s quite obvious you are mistaken. We have the European Parliament elections so… you know democratically elected representatives.

What consistently impresses me is Racket seems to be one of the most professionally developed open source software (or lisp implementation) I aware of.

Solid releases, well tested, four times a year, and on all major platforms.

The Racket compiler too. So quick it is used in the REPL, and the compiled code is damn fast too.

There can't be many projects that achieve that?
that sounds great, if they're inexpensive to buy, the only land i'd really need is the land the house is on. my hope is one day we'll have enough money to consider such a thing, probably once we make 150k+ a year, but that doesn't seem so far out of reach at the moment, could happen some time in the next 6 months

there are other constraints of course (such as isp), but right now the biggest one is that we don't have millions to spend on a single bedroom.

The only "problem" with sagemath is that it is based on Python. The rationale is that Python is easy to start using and widely known. This is the usual "make it easy for newcomers" trap.

For the mathematical constructs we care about in symbolic programming, I have found Python's syntax and Sage's menagerie of objects awful to use. Initially you feel comfortable, but when you want to do some real work, it gets horribly in the way. The Wolfram language, a LISP variant, is less familiar and harder for a newbie to learn but it is vastly superior for actual work.
Most people asked would be unaware that lobotomy is still practiced in todays psychiatry.

They would think that it was something that only happened in mental asylums and mental hospitals in England a few hundred years ago.

It is a requirement of psychotherapy training that you spend time in psychiatric wards.

I was so shocked to learn that brain surgery (NMD, Neurosurgery for mental disorder ) and electric shock treatement (ECT, Electroconvulsive therapy) were so prevalent.

We still use these horrific treatment to manage those with psychiatric disorders.

Do we really want to praise some frankenstein scientist for leading the way to remove parts of someone's brain.

I saw people who had endured these treatments.

Hey Antonio. let me pop round your house and give you some ECT to see how you like it.

It just goes to prove that psychiatry still has no real understanding of the brain even after hundreds of years.

Quack muppets!
I think of threats that are unknown and/or can't be adequately defended against:

* Asteroid impacts like Chicxulub.

* The Sun eventually inflating into a red giant and eating Earth, though this assumes we're both still around and haven't become spaceborne en masse.

* Pandemics such as The Black Death and, indeed, covid for a recent example.

* Social, political, or commercial intrigue.

* Cancer.

"AI" is a known threat that can be adequately defended against, so I agree with the sentiment that it's stupid to call it a "gravest of dangers".
It's multiple dispatch though, not virtual dispatch. If I understand correctly, virtual dispatch means the method is picked at runtime. In Julia, the compiler is able to pick the correct method at compile time, even when dispatching on all arguments of the function.

> though probably no more problematic than introducing unity builds.

A "Unity build" really just means typing #include "foo.cpp" a few times. It's trivial.

Meanwhile, neither Clang nor GCC support standard library modules. They have only partial support for modules themselves. C++ module support is non-existent in almost all build systems. https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/compiler_support

The idea of C++ modules is great. It's badly needed. In practice I'm not sure if they're ever going to be genuinely functional and widespread. Which makes me sad. Toy projects don't count.
I know they made newer games, I played Obduction in person in their offices before it was released :)

But you're on the same page as me, there was a time and place for these FANTASTIC games, but that's in the past. And it feels kind of silly to watch them push the same games onto new platforms in a futile attempt to stay relevant (and cash the nostalgia checks, even when players end up NOT feeling the same things as the OG release).

Part of why I didn't like D2 again is exactly what you said, I'm not a teenager with endless time to spend online gaming. But another huge part is that I've been there and done that, and a nicer, newer version of that fun just doesn't hold a candle to the fun I had years ago when it was fresh. I'm saying the same holds true for Myst/Riven, release it on my smart fridge for all I care, it's not the same :D

..and people like you... easily swayed by sycophantic idealism, and irrational greed.

Have a wonderful day, and please refrain from resorting to straw-man arguments and slander if you are feeling upset by facts. =3
The “computers are replacing our jobs” line is very emotive and I feel both sides of the argument are looking at the problem too binary.

Yes some jobs are menial but they are still some people’s literal livelihoods. And yes, industries need to evolve and job preservation shouldn’t be the #1 criteria for holding back change.

The real question we should be asking ourselves isn’t either of those two former points but actually this:

Is the pace of change too quick, or is there any support to allow those economically affected by change to be able to retrain?

Removing jobs doesn’t help society because it just leads to unemployment and thus more people dependent on the state. But retraining people is absolutely a benefit. For example, if call centres replaced the first line support with AI, that could lead to shorter call waiting times. But the existing call centre staff could become 2nd line support, account managers for business accounts, install engineers, or even AI supervisors that review a subset of AI interactions to ensure customer satisfaction is maintained.

I mean that's the basic flaw of democracy; what alternative are you suggesting? Dissolution of the EU and back to how it was? Have a look at the UK nowadays to see how that worked out.

The EU's biggest money maker is enacting laws that can be used to sue American tech companies.
While this is true, the idea behind this was not merely to collaborate on coal and steel production. The intention from the very beginning was that such tight economic coupling would make war impossible.

Germany has the idea of "Wandel durch Handel" (change through trade)[1], which is essentially that you can prevent and make war non-viable and eventually even change countries to follow democratic norms. The EU is the most extreme version of this.

I am also skeptical of any overly pessimistic alien interaction theories, but I don't think this analogy applies here. We already have open communication channels and centuries of trust between the British and French, and we certainly did pillage each other before we figured out how to speak to each other.

Definitely not. If the entire issue is these companies creating closed ecosystems, then what point does it serve to make the EU a closed ecosystem? That would become like North Korea or the USSR technologically, your choice would be government EuroPhone or nothing.
> They can't, Apple management have a responsibility to its shareholders and pull out of the EU or even threatening to do so would hurt the stock price.

This isn't how "responsibility to its shareholders" works.

While it's true activist shareholders often launch lawsuits over issues they don't like in the US, they are rarely successful and more often looking for a settlement involving a secondary, less significant issue.

US Courts have repeatedly given a large amount of freedom to management to do whatever they want in terms of "delivering shareholder value". They allow management so consider long term goals against next quarter (as they should).

Additionally there's an excellent precedent for this: Google withdrawing from the Chinese market. There are other precedents for threats like this: Both Facebook and Google threatened to withdraw from Australia in various forms during negotiations over payments for news.

(Not arguing this is a good idea, just that it's completely within the realm of what Apple could do).
For me, the whole thing is an impressive flex, but I know next to nothing about electronics. Can you elaborate what’s interesting about using 555 timers in particular?
I think backdooring the RAM would be easier. Modern DRAM has lots of complicated features (e.g. link training, targeted refresh, on-die ECC). I don't know exactly how it's implemented, but that's plenty of complexity to provide cover for backdoors.

It should be possible to add something that watches for specific memory access patterns and provides arbitrary read/write capabilities when the correct pattern is detected. This could be used for privilege escalation from untrusted but sandboxed code, e.g. JavaScript. It could work with any CPU architecture or OS, because the arbitrary memory reads could be used to detect the correct place to write.

This would be less effective with DIMMs or other multi-chip memory modules, but RISC-V computers are usually small single-board computers that only have a single DRAM chip.

> it is still right to say that money is created when a mortgage is issued if that mortgage is backed by large investors.

Is it? Since the house seller wants to have cold, hard cash (or, these days, an incoming wire transfer, which still counts as M1), the large investors need to cough up that much money to make the transaction happen.
Switching yourself is easy, but you can't expect everyone you interact with to switch too when they don't have a reason for it (and they have the same problem of getting all of their contacts to switch).

If there's interop between the chat applications - and be honest, do any of them have a unique selling point that makes them significantly better to the average user? - then that restriction is lifted.

It improves competition, which is healthy in a free economy (something corporate liberals really push for), forcing the chat apps to innovate instead of benefit off of critical mass / first mover advantage.
You can also profile the execution in a less trusted environment and use that to define the sandbox, like running Linux in NSA SEL learning mode. This allows a black box approach to systems monitoring which works well with secret, forgotten and proprietary systems and is good engineering practice for most systems anyway, whether hardware or software, as anomalies are often highly detectable.

As a fanboy what I want to see is not this message because this means fragmentation. I’d like to be able to manage my subscriptions from the settings menu. Honestly the most important part I feel DMA should have tackled and not just forced stuff on big tech. Yeah they are gatekeepers but they also provide value as gatekeepers. Force everyone to use an API for subscriptions management and if they don’t participate allow me to chargeback and not have any legal repercussions and I would NEVER have a problem with any alternative stores.

Also don’t want apps which are saying: visit this to get cheaper rates or completely not offer me to buy in-app as it is a waste of time to go their random website power by Y platform. You establish this go to website to subscribe and it will increase overall fraud.

These are my problems with the above. Very easily solved I think but I’m just worried that every greedy developer will try to get every single % they can (same as Apple) and I don’t believe this will create a “safer” world.

> considering an RTX 4080 has 320W alone

> having to buy a 1300€ GPU, that one would have to replace every year

Feels like gamers are quite the demanding audience, instead of getting something like Intel Arc A380 (or something that supports AV1), upscaling from 720p/1080p using framegen and running games on medium settings. That might make the equation work out better, though perhaps not if the industry pushes for more and more complex graphics all the darn time, while the engines themselves are capable of scaling back all the way to mobile devices.

I probably have lower standards in that regard, I wouldn't expect to max out graphics when trying to play games on a MacBook or a netbook or something, due to the smaller screen anyways, it feels like modern game graphics are so noisy you can hardly make things out well. Nowadays I mostly play indie games that aren't super graphically complex, yet still are lovely experiences.

That said, my current GPU is actually an Arc A580 (replaced my old RX 580) and it's been pretty good since I got ReBAR working, and 1080p at 60 fps is the sweet spot for me (except slightly higher framerates like 72 fps feel better in VR).

For early versions I’ve had a much easier time building with subscription model (used a third party, set up in one day). Unless it was a key differentiator for a customer choosing me, usage based was more complicated to set up for shipping quickly early on.

Your comment suggests this was some time ago, since traveling to Ukraine after the invasion doesn't seem to be something most people would do.

2. Martial Law helps a country at war

It's logical that governments take decisions that some people don't like. Martial Law is there to take quick, hard and possibly unpopular decisions. Ukraine as a country is trying to survive right now. Their martial law doesn't even allow elections!
