That's more than just slightly facetious. In a modern x86 CPU, the bulk of instructions are translated to micro-ops by fixed-function logic, and the micro-ops are executed directly. That's very far from interpretation.

Some instructions (legacy or more complex instructions, especially the ones you'd find in OS code) are implemented by microcode, and that microcode can be patched.

Microcode also plays a role during CPU initialization, which is when configuration registers are set (which may disable some functionality that turns out to be buggy). Or, as in this case, in power management.

Incumbency is a huge thumb on the scales. A functional system needs to have certain checks on those in power that balance the playing field, otherwise democracy is a sham.

> SV startups are probably the least efficient way of finding solutions that work

On what metric? By any objective measure, barring the tail end of ZIRP, it’s been remarkably more efficient than many national projects.

The point is a VC ecosystem working properly should have a high failure rate. Lots of failures just tells you risk isn’t too low. To measure efficacy and efficiency you have to look at the output. And again, barring the pandemic vintages, it’s a pretty clear record of success.
Maybe ethically but legally no. When the language is stricken the rest of the contract stands as agreed. What I would give for a law that makes it a punishable offense to put illegal terms in your contracts. I see

I would draw an analogy to map projections.

Or, take an image of a soccer ball (the kind with pentagons and hexagons), you can see all of one hemisphere. But it’s a “fisheye” view. If you take the half soccer ball and cut up the shapes and rearrange them on a flat surface, you are adjusting the projection

Poker has a rake and the amount of wealth in the system is the money people put on the table (not even factoring in that gambling winnings are taxed). Meaning the total wealth decreases for every hand played in a raked game. Economic transactions and increasing efficiency are positive sum. You can combine pieces of metal into new alloys and machinery which are more valuable than the sum of their parts. This is positive sum. If two people trade they only engage in trade if the transaction is mutually beneficial.

Yes you are right but “pros” are playing with rake typically.

In a way you can consider poker 0 sum or positive sum depending on the utility you derive from the enjoyment of gambling. But that should also factor in the negative utility from gamblers that lose

Well the first part about who is likely to be an abuser I can see how one would argue that. But why focus on the mother about what she should be doing in a divorce? Responsibility for the children rests with both parents! Even if in the end it's often the mother actually stepping up.

I find that's a central part of the article, that societal pressire for men to look after their children is lacking. And they don't on their own measure up. There's no easy answer, and telling the mothers they are responsible for absentee fathers is too easy a take.

Sure, to an extent you can buy freedom with money, but I think you'd need a lot of money to really be free. Even in the scenario in your comment, you're presumably still the one driving them around between these activities. Unless you have money to pay someone else to do that for you, which would require quite a bit of money. I don't think that's what most people have in mind when they bring up money concerns -- they're likely much more concerned about affording housing, medical care, clothing, etc for a child.

I think the thing with 'freedom' is that they don't want to take on another big responsibility, at the expense of what they already have in their life.

I believe System Restore takes a registry backup and can recover from a bad driver install but it's been years since I used it last. I think just about anything System Restore does can be replicated by "just fixing it" in Safe Mode but I think System Restore is geared for less technical folks.

Newer versions of Windows have File History to backup user data (I don't think they have an integrated system/file solution quite like Time Machine though).

However it makes some sense to keep system/user data separate. You don't want to lose your doc edits because you happened to have a bad driver upgrade at the same time. Likewise, you don't want to roll your entire system back to get an old version of a doc.

Time Machine is trivial to implement (without the UI) with disk snapshots (that's what it does--store disk snapshots to an external disk)
Well... they are investing to make money, not to hold shares in a company forever. If they wanted to do the later they'd buy index funds and sit on them. Most (I'd bet nearly all) capital sources for VCs do both actually.

Also:

1) IPO is one of those exit strategies. Tons of startups are aiming to become long lived independent companies.

2) M&A makes sense for lots of businesses, as you get to take advantage of better economies of scale as part of a larger org. Saying it's your exit plan doesn't make you a scammer.

I think the article must have ignored drag, which makes their estimate of 35-40 mpg unrealistic. Tour de France sprinters can reach 45mph speed, but the average Tour speed is more like 25-30 mph. Running is less efficient, and less aerodynamic, than cycling.
I'm not doubting, but can you give a few examples of Microsoft trouncing others?

I also think of Amazon (which the creator of the Elm programming language describes as having "the Jeff problem" because they steal smaller people's/team's ideas), although that's a different problem.

I can't say anything comes to mind right now about MS, though, which is most likely a failure of my memory/knowledge. So I'd appreciate some examples.

You then pivoted to the non sequitur that I “like Deel.” I pointed out that isn’t true, and never needed to be—this was never a discussion about which start-ups we want to put a sticker on. It’s a bit rich to complain about logical fallacies after throwing one out.

In C, it is not like that. From the 2023 draft:

6.8.7.5 The return statement

Constraints

1 A return statement with an expression shall not appear in a function whose return type is void.

It's a constraint violation. It doesn't matter what the type of the expression is.

It looks as if C++ made a small improvement here.

Yes, the bottom type is at the bottom of the type derivation hierarchy. That's why the word bottom is there; that's what it's at the bottom of. It's also why it can't have any instances. Since every other type is a supertype, then if the bottom type contained some value V, that value would be imposed into every other type! V would be a valid String, Widget, Integer, Stream, Array ... what have you.

What do you think two poker players still in a hand raising each other are doing? They both still think it’s mutually beneficial. The maths if you have full visibility show it isn’t, but I’d argue that’s the same of the “real” economy too.

I very much disagree with this take-- and the more I've experienced throughout my career the more I'm sure of it.

Companies spend an IMMENSE amount of time and effort adapting sometimes subpar off the shelf solutions to fit their infra and pay an ongoing tax w/ increasing tech debt trying to support them. Often something bespoke and smaller + more tailored would unlock significantly more productivity if the investment is made consciously.

Any code that is written has both assets and liabilities. But to claim it is a distraction and resource sink is a very, very bad take. Every decision to build something in-house needs to be done thoughtfully and deliberately.

> It's not clear to me they are so different but maybe I am not "sufficiently smart".

They're different because linux promises "eBPF are safe and cannot crash the kernel", and failed to deliver on that, while Microsoft says "drivers are all-powerful and as such must be written with care", and CrowdStrike did not heed this warning.

> Yes "the wrong people were trusted" but I don't see how we can completely solve this with engineering.

I mean, we could solve the "third party software fucks the kernel up" problem easily with engineering: providing userspace APIs to do stuff that currently need kernelspace access. There's no inherent reason security products (or, really, any products) needs to live in the kernel, it's just that there are no APIs to do this job, so security products have to go there. If Microsoft provided a good API doing what the custom drivers currently do, most security products would drop their driver in a heartbeat.

For instance, macOS fixed this exact issue a couple years ago by introducing Endpoint Security Framework, a userspace API that allows watching a bunch of events, and authorizing whether they should be allowed or blocked. It's a well-designed API that should obsolete the need for kernelspace access in security products.

There’s been recent discussions on TV news about ’dupe’ specific sites for fashion and home goods. The big fear is that the popularity of dupes will harm the original designers. However, the idea of fashion copyright is only a modern concept. In woodworking if you saw a chair you liked, you may pay for a plan, but then make it yourself as many times as you wanted. A cobbler would look at a shoe and know how to make it for their customer. A tailor can change a collar or stitch to match what anyone wants.There was no demand that every worker have a unique design - everyone understood it was made to order. When it becomes possible to scale a design to worldwide sales, then the claims of uniqueness seem to us to become more important - but should they?

Outdated certificates are actually fine with regards to SAML, oddly enough; the logic being that the trust is handled out of band at metadata level, and the certificate is just a public-key distribution method. (That applies to Shibboleth at least; other implementations may disagree.) This does of course assume that you have a means of safely keeping metadata for the other end of the trust relationship up to date. In an eduGAIN/local federation setting, that's easy enough to do with signed XML metadata feeds and daily fetches, but far less so for bilateral trust.

The XMLDSig stuff is definitely a mess though. There were definitely issues with comments in signed content allowing values to be truncated to the start of the comment, along with some similar weirdness with XML entities. And that's before any of your (entirely valid!) complaints...
