Feels that if anything, the author is describing computational abstractions, not data structures per se. They mention the term in the text, but then continue to say "data structure" while talking about everything except data structures. For example:

"a local cafe is no longer a community hangout but a data structure containing a menu, a list of reservation options, and a hundred 5-star ratings"

This description is focusing on the "not data structure" parts like what is there, what it means, and what can be done with it; the data structure part would be, how it's arranged and what the impact of that is.

It's still clear what the author means, and they are using the relevant terminology, just the irony is in details being named opposite to what they should be.
Not sure I follow your logic…
Also, apparently low end (mobile?) Arrow Lake CPUs will use 20A while higher end will use 3nm.

Always this stuff... Seriously, let's look at Germany. Do I feel less safe than before because of some refugees which cannot behave? Yes. Has there been more crimes than before committed by refugees? Yes. Do we have increased gang activity related to immigrants and refugees? Yes. Am I a bit racist? Sadly, yes (I did several scientific tests which prove that I am).

Not for the world would I close the border to not let refugees in. You simply cannot judge anyone for their birthplace. The message is absolutely correct, no human being can (should) be illegal, especially when in need.
Cox has a responsible disclosure program: https://www.cox.com/aboutus/policies/cox-security-responsibl....

In my opinion (as a security engineer) the biggest benefit of such programs is not amoral "hackers will always sell exploits to the highest bidder so companies must provide a high bounty for bugs in their software"[1] but "having a responsible disclosure process makes it totally clear that it's ok to report vulnerabilities without being sued".

Looking at the timeline below the post I can't see anything problematic. The author even waited the usual[2] 90 days before disclosure, even though the vulnerability was hotpatched a day after report (congrats to Cox btw). They also shared a draft blog post with them a month ago.

Résumé/CV: https://mattcrmx.github.io/cv/
Email (obfuscated): https://veilmail.io/matthias

I’m currently working as a Software Engineer, with a focus on performance and speed for deep learning models in production. I'm one of the maintainers of https://github.com/mindee/tawazi, and I'm heavily interested in low level, reverse engineering as well as open source. Two of my current projects are a cython header generator written in python based on Lex/Yacc (https://github.com/MattCrmx/cyheadgen/) and a file descriptor leak monitoring (https://github.com/MattCrmx/fd-watcher/)

If your company matches one or more of these interests, I'll be happy to hear about it !
> This is not nihilism, it is hedonism

No, hedonism is seeking pleasure. That is not what I said.

What you feel like doing is the stuff that makes you tick. The stuff that makes you get out of bed in the morning. For some, it's pleasure, for others, it's work, painting, surfing, seal-clubbing, whatever.

> what if I feel like robbing a bank, or doing heroin?

Then do that. People that feel like robbing banks, already are doing it, so what is the problem? Reminds me of the misconception from religious people that atheism means having no morals whatsoever, that it means murdering babies all day long. It won't be "philosophy" nor "religion" that stops you from doing harm, if that's what drives you.

I much prefer to believe that the vast majority of people have good intentions, and have loftier goals for themselves than pursuing hedonism.
What can actually be usefully run on this?
this is why everything gets logged to an S3 bucket under an AWS account that has only write permissions and three people are required to break into the account that can do anything else with that bucket. I don't know if that's what Cox has, but that's how it's architect it to be able to claim there's no history of abuse.
Completely agree. These kind of articles are always an inspiration. It’s nowhere near wholesome like the original post but I’ve tried to write in similar style before. Shameless self plug: https://blog.aydindogm.us/posts/superbox-hacks-v1/
You don't actually need mod to do fizzbuzz, even if that's the most obvious way for people who know what mod is.

But without any "real" math at all you can do it with, eg, two counters and some if statements. Or if you recognise that there's a repeating pattern you can work out that pattern manually and just write code to emit it over and over.

It's a fair set of questions, posed fairly directly, without any sugarcoating. If you read it as a ruthless critique, it stings. If you read it as constructive feedback, it can bring the author a lot of value.

If the author can clearly show the value proposition of their library, it will get more adoption, and the community and the author will get value.

If the author realizes they coded something that is already a well-solved problem, or a poorly-constructed alternative, the author and Nike could gain by throwing this away and going with a better alternative.

Personally, I wasted too many hours of my life creating a solution that did not solve any problems. Had I done some thinking and/or market research ahead of time, it would have saved me ton's of time to work on more worthwhile endeavors.

Good feedback is worth its weight in gold, even if it hurts a bit to hear it.

> things you do once in your life, or maybe once a year at most

I don't think that's the case. Analytics [1] for the top web pages in the US Federal government are:

* GSA advantage - a search tool
* Visa instructions - static?
* USPS tracking - a search tool
* ESTA application - a form
* NWS Radar - weather radar
* Sex offender registry - search tool

Checking the weather or shipping a package are much more common than yearly activities.

Of course anything that is static will be behind some sort of cache, but the DevOps team is focused on scaling the dynamic parts.

Oh, and for screen sharing for support, I use the built-in Remote Desktop functionality (RDP). I have set up a Wireguard connection from the laptop to my home network which makes it possible for me to jump at any time in without 'grandma' having to do anything. Such an improvement over TeamViewer (which also had trouble with Wayland for a long time, maybe still does?).

Remote support is a breeze now, and we save the usual 30 minutes of guiding an update of TeamViewer over the phone (because of an old and incompatible version) etc.

It would be great if the article gives more information about the scheme. EDIT: great that breden has added the actual case.

Crypto just sounds a a little clickbait because fraud is fraud no matters the means except if crypto has something different in this case.

I think it is more interesting that the Epoch Times was a beneficiary from this scheme so I don't see as a normal case where the CFO enrich himself. In almost all frauds, specially in crypto, the enriched party is an individual, group, or another company that use their position against a company or community for himself. For example, FTX and Three Arrows Capital [1].

BTW, I am the plaintiff in an ongoing crypto lawsuit [2].

The fix for that is to establish a subsidiary.
I would also add that the 'New Space' scene is going to be much more willing to accept autonomous manufacturing methods. People like ESA are much much more resistant to change, and will take a lot of convincing that it is as good as the slow manual method.

Honestly, as things are looking, I am likely to be leaving the space sector in the near future, so I am not too worried about protecting my job or future on that front. The more accessible space is the better, even if that means people like me become less common.
The world runs on mediocrity. To demand otherwise is a mistake of perfectionism.

> But no matter how you slice it, nihilism is a declaration of war on values themselves.

No and no. I've replied to you elsewhere, but you seem to confuse "having no meaning" with "war against meaning". It's a common, and tiring, fallacy.

The former is neutral, the latter is negative. The point of nihilism is that there is NO meaning, so the subtext is "make your own", not the ignorant cliche of "nothing matters, we might just off ourselves."
I wrote about this at https://dotat.at/@/2022-04-20-really-divisionless.html

You don’t need to worry about this for mapping hashes to buckets, because a hash has a limited width, whereas unbiased random numbers are based on an unbounded stream of random bits.

In this article they are working with 128 bit hashes so they already have plenty of bits for bias not to be a problem. A single straightforward multiplication is fine.

To be fair, Germany is unusually harsh on security researchers. As far as I know (but German law is not my forte) there's no exclusion for "ethical hacking". I remember reading about many German cases that went like:

* A security researcher discovers that the main database of some service is available publicly with default password
* They notify the company
* They get sued for unauthorized access to the company's data

This wouldn't happen in my (also European) jurisdiction, because as long as your intention is to fix the vulnerability you found, and you notify the company about the problem, you're in the clear.

> It's one of the reasons why subtitles are so prevalent in Chinese media

I'd love to hear other people's take on this. I heard this many times when I lived in China, however living in Taiwan - people still always use subtitles. In Taiwan there are vanishingly few people that don't speak Mandarin, so it's not inserted for people that are bad at Mandarin. You will see that both in China and Taiwan people that are fluent in Mandarin watching a Mandarin movie will never turn off the subtitles.

Talking to native-speaking friends I've pieced together that it seems Chinese is actively hard to make out (compared to English). Without the subtitles they will miss sections of dialogue in movies/tv-shows. Maybe because it's so tonal and contextual? I've asked people "Okay, but when you talk to people day-to-day, you don't have subtitles - so how are you dealing with it?" and the responses seem to boil down to "often we have to guess what the other person is saying"

I'd love to hear some thoughts from someone who is 100% biligual and able to make the comparison
I think the argument about the taxes is that, being a wholesome person is largely orthogonal to being a good king, like it is being good with a sword doesn't make you a good monarch. For example, letting Grima leave edoras because 'enough blood has been spilled' is really cool, but dubious and questionable.

Though I don't know much about ME and maybe in that world, the challenges present in the real world don't exist there.
Now that the floating point vector units have gotten large enough to engage in mitosis, I wonder if there will be room in the future for little SIMD units stuck on the integer side. Bring back SSE, haha.

> It's a lot easier to open up a site than it is for an average guy to get laid.

Well, yes, absolutely. It's quite difficult actually. Especially if your only goal is "to get laid" and don't want any other commitment. There's apps like tinder of course but even then it's quite difficult to stand out for men. I certainly don't manage that.

Personally I think it's more fair on the lady in question to just pay for it in those cases. Where both parties know what to expect and there is no pretense of more. No messing with hearts.

When it comes to that it's not like it difficult (though I suppose in the US it's illegal in some states, where I'm from it's quite normal).
Totally agree. Don't feel bad if you skip days when you don't feeling it.

What's problematic about depending on Jira this way is:

When Jira is down, you can't go to your supplies stash and get another Jira.

Programmers can work when the office Internet or GitHub is down, because git is decentralised.

Hillel Wayne did a good "study" on this by speaking to a bunch of engineers who moved into software, engineers who stayed in software, and engineers who only worked in software (yes, you can be a chartered engineer in most Western countries including the US and UK purely from software).

The strong consensus was that software is an engineering discipline, and the nitpicking you can have on any particular topic that is/isn't engineering-y can be applied across the board.

But this conversation is totally moot IMO because if you have a bachelors in computer science or software engineering, and a masters in the same discipline, and several years experience, you can apply and become the same chartered engineer from the same association that does "real" engineering.

The thing is, old ways didn't have to be contraptions at all.
If we had to run many services on a system, we instead ran BSD with jails, or if we have to run Linux, with chroots.

These solutions, abstracted the convoluted solutions away. Who didn't want to form these solutions themselves (which is fair, because it needs intricate knowledge about close-to-OS stuff) built "contraptions" instead.

The core solutions to core problems didn't change at all. We sometimes use the more modern approaches, because we feel lazy sometimes.
Thanks for the suggestions! The compression is an interesting idea. It's been a while since I touched the FPGA RTL but I think there might be space to fit something like that.

Related to compression -- a dirty little Photon secret is that currently, the 12-bit RAW pixels are written as 16-bit words, so 25% of the SD card (the high 4 bits of every pixel) is actually zeroes. So an easy compression win is to compact those pixels, and we'll go from being able to store 20k photos to 27k photos, and spend less time writing the photos (like you said) which should translate to longer battery life.

It would be interesting to quantify what the biggest consumer of power is while capturing a photo. I'm honestly not sure what the power breakdown would look like (image sensor vs SDRAM vs SD card vs ICE40).
Well, it's entirely optional. I understand why people wouldn't want this, but for those who do see the benefit of accessing this additional layer of memory we want to give them complete control over their data (screenshots, OCR'd text, embeddings) and auditability of the software.
