E Ink in white state is white at the top, while transflective LCDs display black and white by blocking or allowing reflections at the other end to go back up layers of polarizers. I'd guess that that difference makes E Ink significantly superior to LCDs. This is totally "old man's why it can't be done" hallucination, though.
It’s important to realize senior government roles are bumped up by years of service and local cost of living.

CTO’s pay varies wildly but the average is only ~175k you can make more than that in government. Yes Google’s CTO makes vastly more, but there’s 1,000 local banks for every Google. https://www.payscale.com/research/US/Job=Chief_Technology_Of...

In Arlington VA you’ll cap out at 33.26% over the GS-15 step 10 so 160k * 1.33 = 212k and someone with 40 years of service is looking at a 212 * 0.011 * 40 = 93k per year pension at 62 which then gets inflation adjustments. There’s people making 3x that but not that many of them.
100% - another for the BGP hijack!
I don’t know anyone who likes having to order through the apps for fast food places, or regards them as a time-saving convenience—rather, they’re an inconvenience the places make you suffer to get what should be normal menu prices under the broader inflation rate, rather than the 300% markup above that all these places have applied to their menu prices.

To those of us with ADHD this firehose of notifications and distractions feels like a deliberate attack on our agency. It does make me feel like I want to die, not because I’m depressed or suicidal generally but because I can’t imagine aging gracefully with this escalating source of entropy.

The key difference being the Cold War is over

But more importantly, from a "realpolitik" International Relations perspective, the biggest problem with the invasion of Ukraine is that Russia couldn't win it as swiftly as it believed it could. If they were not a paper tiger and had in fact succeeded in taking Kyiv shortly after the start of the conflict, the rest of the world would have had to accept it. Because they failed, they get the US and other Western allies supporting a resistance for the stated goal of defending Ukraine's sovereignty but for the true goal of not allowing Russia to grow stronger.
I’m so glad I lived through hard mode. I have a kind of perseverance and resilience in the face of difficult learning challenges that my teenagers are hardly developing (despite my best efforts), and it has made my life so much richer.

They were okay, each eye would receive a slightly different image due to the poor viewing angles of the 2010 tech.

This is well written and reflects my own ideals quite well. Especially the part about all code being a liability.

We should always take a few moments to reflect before we write anything at all. Everything unnecessary we add is just another point of failure or potential security hole.
the editorial bias from management of NYT has always been skeptical of Google and Facebook and perhaps all of big tech because big tech was a threat to their business. Most newspapers in the US have been hollowed out because of social media and the tech industry, NYT ironically has not because they hired a real in house tech team that has kept their paper relevant.

But that doesn't mean they like paying their tech workers any more than any other management. It's just about money. Big tech is a threat to management's profits, just like workers demanding better salaries is a threat to management's profits.
Many of the concerns listed seem to call out jobs that are not part of this union. Stuff like, "Women and people of color are significantly underrepresented in the most highly compensated reporting and editing roles in the newsroom." I agree that is a concern, I'm not clear that "reporting and editing roles" are part of this union's leverage, though.

I think that is the worst of them, so maybe it impacted how I read the rest? And, again, if this is normal for union concerns, so be it.
This seems cool but unlikely something I'd use. There's two types of people who will be building their own e-bike batteries:

1. cheap bastards hoarding broken tool packs to tear down and make a pack with mixed cells. The hard part here isn't welding it's testing and sorting the cells by ir and capacity.(edit: me)

2. People building very high performance bikes at 72-100 volts and very high amperage, likely not using 18650s.

In both cases I'd be curious to know if there's a difference in maximum current between a welded pack and your clamped design.
If the bit twiddling is independent in each u64, then probably. If it's treated as one giant bitstring, probably not.
Our industry does not argue about code style. There were a few distinct subcultures which were appropriated by the industry who used to argue about code style, lisp-1 vs lisp-2, vim vs emacs, amiga vs apple, single pass vs multi pass compilers, Masters of Deception vs Legion of Doom and the list goes on, depending on the subculture.

The industry is profit driven.
Interesting that he thinks the clock would be better with a 32kHz crystal than with monitoring the 60Hz power frequency. The power line frequency is very tightly regulated over the long term, and should have an overall better accuracy.
If you have fatigue from years of reading about all sorts of underhanded spy action and diplomatic choices, one noteworthy thing about this writeup is that it shows multiple US officials who seemed to be acting with integrity and admirable values.

One of the earlier times I was reading about underhandedness, it involved a US ambassador raising red flags about grave human rights abuses by the foreign gov't. For whatever reason, that ambassador was replaced by one who would publicly deny what was going on. At the time I read that (long after it happened), I paid attention to the latter, villain ambassador, but not enough attention to the earlier ambassador, who seemed to be on the right side.

A bit like the saying from Mister Rogers lore, "Look for the helpers."[1]

Yes, but the no-fly zones are too strict because they apply to any altitude - even 5 to 10 meters above the ground. You are not allowed to fly a drone in your own garden or street. You can fly it in your own home. But it is not like a plane or helicoper is going to fly 10 meters above your street.

You opt-in to any of the top byte masking schemes via prctl on Linux. It's fully forward compatible, in that programs that don't enable it will continue to work like normal. Additionally, Linux won't map memory at addresses higher than 2*48 by default either because non-hardware accelerated top bits pointer tagging would have the same problem. I don't think either of your complaints are valid here.
I'm fairly certain that the lower bits are masked away on memory reads by pretty much everything that has an on-board cache anyhow, so they're fair game. Some ISAs even mandate this masking-away for large-than-byte loads.
I would say that TLS/SSL doesn't depend on Internet PKI - browsers (etc) depend on Internet PKI in combination with TLS/SSL.

If the US government made the MPAA/RIAA in charge of law enforcement and had them tackle international drug cartels, illegal arms trade, cybercrime and human trafficking with the same amount of manpower and resources as they do pirated movies and music, we'd be living in a crime free paradise in a matter of months.
I think you're missing my main point: the only users who should need the OSS version would be those competing, because FSS offers the same freedoms as OSS to users who aren't competing.

About: Making software for 35+ years.. Seen quite some things.. and attitudes, bottom to top, wearing many hats, always hands-on. Have my own python course, coding style, some open-sourced stuff, and even opinions on things.

i am Looking for Mentoring a team or 3 - newbies or not. As a playing trainer, within the team and the project/work. And/Or advising about how to do things better, even on chief/company levels. And/Or i can be Principal or Staff engineer, Architect, CTO.. TheTechGuy. And even code somewhat.. But IMO The interesting part of software, is the people, while technicals.. are solvable. i can mentor people how to _think_ _correctly_. While building something good, together.

Probably I will ruin most your illusions.. because in software making, what's doable, sellable, wanted, and needed, rarely overlap.. But when they do, there the dream comes true. Let's find it..

i may relocate anywhere to stay with the team, as IMO "remote" does not work for any knowledge-or-culture -building activities.

Have fun
The fundamental difference between something like Pave or Radford is that, AFAIK, they are simply providing companies with information.

I am not a lawyer, but I believe the fundamental issue with RealPage is that by entering into a service agreement with them, you agree not to violate their price “recommendation” and so you are centralizing actual pricing power into a single entity.

I believe RealPage has some way to negotiate out of this standard deal but it’s not common.

Companies likely insist on staying within certain pay bands for a whole host of legal and HR reasons but they aren’t getting a specific salary from Pave that they are contractually obligated to use in their offer.
Not so.

Google <stores> most of your data. If you have your tax records on gdrive, google so far cannot target ads based on that content (i can't say forsure if you attach your tax form in gmail nowadays)

With SOLID any site can simply say "we need your tax records to prove you're a human or combat fraud whatever".

SOLID and all other not-solutions like it make your consent as useless as android app permissions. Accept a huge list they don't even bother to show anymore or go away.

Remember how android 2.3 you still could deny internet access permission? With SOLID it will be the same. Full ID data will eventually move to expandable list of permissions you will give by default.

I bet benners thought very hard about all the math and network etc. But he's being a buffoon when it comes to understanding applicability.
I mean, the answer is simple. Even if email-based flows use range-diff, which is the correct conceptual model, all the actual details of using email are, I would estimate, about 1,000x shittier in 2024 than using GitHub in 2008 when I signed up for the beta as user #3000-something.

Email flows fucking suck ass. Yes I have used them. No, I won't budge on this, and no, I'm not going to go proselytize on LKML or Sourcehut or whatever about it, in Rome I'll just do as the Romans even if I think it sucks. But I've used every strategy you can think of to submit patches, and I can't really blame anyone for not wading through 500 gallons of horrendous bullshit known as the mailing list experience in order to glean the important things from it (like range-diff), even if I'm willing to do it because I have high pain tolerance or am a hired gun for someone's project.

Also, to be fair, Gerrit was released in 2009, and as the creator of ReviewBoard (in this thread!) also noted it supports interdiffs, and supported them for multiple version control backends, was released in 2006! This was not a totally foreign concept, it's just that for reasons, GitHub won, and the defaults chosen by the most popular software forge in history tend to have downstream cultural consequences, both good and bad, as you note.
Is that what George was trying to say?

Just Launched an App for Custom Slack Notification Sounds – Chirpy
Hi! Daniel here, creator of Chirpy.

As someone who spends a ton of time on Slack, I found it annoying that I can't set different sounds for different channels.

I wish I could have “alert” sound for my #alerts channel, and a different “cha-ching!” sound for my #deals channel, and so on. After some research I realized there was no way to do it, even with external integrations.

That's why I created Chirpy. It lets you upload any audio and assign it to specific channels, so you can easily distinguish between them

We’re still in beta, so any feedback is welcome!

About me: software engineer, remote worker, and indie developer, passionate about building tools that enhance productivity and personalization. Outside of coding, you’ll find me swimming, hiking, or staying updated on the latest tech innovations.
> And I'm not justifying it, I am just explaining how the US sees it.

Yeah, I guess it's a thin line between "providing neutral historical context and reasoning" and "implicitly suggesting that the reasoning makes the actions acceptable or understandable". I'll trust what you're saying though and assume you're not actually trying to justifying it.

> states will always try to maximize their security at the expense of others

I don't think this is true for every single country in the world, especially those more concerned with their own well-being above their "global security status". That's the kind of black and white view that leads to more division and separation rather than humans trying to work together.
I would like to know this also.
I think that's an accurate explanation that many people will take as an excuse or justification.

The short of it is "the US (like all powers which can afford to, but more) will do whatever it needs to do for its benefit while crucifying the same actions from anyone else".

"longest DJ" isn't a compound, it's a noun modified by an adjective, and as such it would be written as two different words in German as well ("längster DJ").
The headline is rather click-baity. As noted in the article, most of the exciting and powerful AI features are not yet available in the beta. So I'm not sure you can review "Apple's new AI" without testing those features.
Kelsey Piper, a journalist at Vox, leaked two years ago that the NYT has had a years-long top-down directive to only write negative stories about tech [1]. Plenty of journalists have confirmed this since. Since you worked at the NYT for seven years, want to explain that particular policy in light of your rebuttal that the NYT had no conflict of interest and wasn't trying to smear tech companies?

I reread it now[0], and while I remembered the premise, I totally forgot about this part at the end, giving them a practical motivation for manual calculations:

"A ship that can navigate space without a computer on board can be constructed
in one-fifth the time and at one-tenth the expense of a computer-laden ship. We could build fleets five time, ten times, as great as Deneb could if we could but eliminate the computer."

But this of course is nonsensical with current technology, same as it would be nonsensical to go back to manual agriculture or manual manufacturing - we can achieve so much more with our tools than without them. And the way I see it, as long as we have an incentive to advance the state of the art, people will have an incentive (and curiosity) to learn how we got where we are, so that they could push the envelope.

Their current CEO, Meredith Kopit Levien, is about as let-them-eat-cake as they come. She was doing a town hall years back when they were forcing everyone to “hotel” desks so they could lease out more floors of their HQ in Times Square, when she mentioned she’s giving up one of her two offices in the building but it’s ok because one was “mostly for shoes, anyway”.
A lot of the data for my area is over a year old. Feels like this needs a refresh.
The "Russia is just defending their geographical sphere of interest" argument for Russia's invasion of Ukraine only comes from Western isolationists and pro-Russia activists.

The actual internal political communication within Russia makes it clear that they don't consider Ukraine and the Ukrainian identity as legitimate. That is why they want to annex Ukraine. Putin launched the invasion in a speech where called Ukraine a fake nation that shouldn't exist.
The most obvious way is to just run a DFS, if you ever come back to a node you’ve seen then you have a cycle (and by storing parent pointers you can get the cycle back). That’s like CS 101 level.

However in the article it’s actually a graph being modified. If you don’t want to run a full dfs every time, there are better ways. This problem is called “online cycle detection” and you can google some other algorithms.
Ok. You added OEMs to the list, but then just named the same three dominant players as clouds. Last I checked, every device on the planet supports IPv6, if not those other protocols. Everything from the cheapest home WiFi router, to every Layer 3 switch sold in the last 20-years.

I think this is a 20-year old argument, and it’s largely irrelevant in 2024.
If I was in a position where a decision impacted me directly, I would, of course, be willing to act on what information I have. As a non-impacted person, I'm afforded the luxury of seeking more information.

I am not, despite the tone from this discussion, specifically anti-union.

In the spirit of your post, though; I have grown rather suspicious of any cause that is so against getting more information. Putting the question back to you, if you saw data showing that going into a potential bad market was not the time to play extra hardball when you already lack a contract, would you consider it? I would hope the answer in both directions would be yes. (That is, if it shows this is a great time to do so, then they, of course, should!)

Way before that. Recall comic books showing a future where criminals mug people on the street and remove their "money chip" from the victims torso. It's a common dystopian trope.

But so far, stolen phones are already enough to pay your rent. Wonder when it won't, but the wallet inside would buy you something even nicer.
As in it would act as a seed to the network and interop their issues/patches into the network too (probably a big ask).

Henry Kissinger is a war criminal in the same club as Adolf Eichmann and Pol Pot. He is responsible for the deaths of millions.

The US, at least since WW2, are the bad guys. Look at what happened to the perpetrators of Unit 731. Or all the Nazis that ended up in positions of power in the West. I mean, look at the resume of Adolf Heusinger [1]. The US were the bad guys in the Cuban missile crisis, almost precipitating WW3. The USSR putting missiles in Cuba was a direct response to the US putting Jupiter MRBMs in Turkey. It's for the restraint of one man (Vasili Arkhopov [2]) that we didn't have a nuclear war.

In the 1950s, we started overthrowing governments at the behest of the interests of Western companies (eg Guatemala [3], Iran [4]).

Anytime any country has even hinted that they'd nationalize extraction industries of someone who was left-leaning won an election, that country would have a coup and the CIA's fingerprints would be all over it. Pinochet is just one of dozens of examples.

Now we largely exact vengeance for defying US interests by starving people to death (aka "economic sanctions"), a policy that has also killed millions.

None of this is principled. People may point to the Monroe doctrine or the Truman doctrine or defending democracy but we've overthrown too many democracies for that claim to have any credibility.

If this were Star Wars, we we would be the Empire.
