Metal spatulas are also just better. Plastic or silicone ones are like safety scissors, so of course you need non-stick pans. I don't run into sticking with cast iron and a metal spatula.

I think the scenario that security through obscurity fails is when the end user is reliant on guarantees that don't exist.

For example Intel's Management Engine, it was obscured very well. It wasn't found for years. Eventually people did find it, and you can't help but wonder how long it took for bad actors with deep pockets to find it. Its this obscured cubby hole in your CPU, but if someone could exploit it, it would be really difficult to find out because of intel's secrecy on top of the feature.

Don’t you need to season carbon steel cookware?

Or do you perform a quick season on the cooktop right before frying / searing? In that case, you could also use stainless steel cookware, which is even less maintenance than carbon steel.
They were aware. The reasons it works the way it works are due to higher priority decisions regarding reliability in face of hardware or software corruption.

i had hoped for a cool looking freelancer. I backed about 30 USD initially and 60 more to get 2 more licenses for friends for SC and SQ42 - have not sent some money since then, so if it ever drops, it might be a nice surprise that did not cost too much.

The frog levitation experiment required 16 Tesla. To levitate a Human is going to require hundreds of Tesla. We're talking the kind of magnetism you'll find around stars. Expensive might not even be the right word, I think you have to dedicate a portion of society to the task of building and powering the machine that can levitate one person at a time. Realistically, we learn quickly that the machine kills people instantly.
Its amazing how far they have come, but it still lacks so much.
I am a founder of a company managing 500k endpoints of different kind of tracking hardwares. It is funny how a thing that less likely to happen than once a month or year, like a bogus sample of data or an event lost gains significance when you have a client of just 200 endpoints who actually is interested in the service.

They just find mistakes, people come that their report for this guy was missing this and that and the commissions are not precise etc. Or they just get a bogus alert sometimes.

We could just shrug, but this erodes the trust about the whole service and the system itself. So we worked a lot to never have these. We have like 25 people on customer service and I can tell you it could have been easily 50 people otherwise.

The interesting part is how we had to kind of break people's common sense about what is significant problem and what is not. The "this is almost never happens I can assure you" from new colleagues were a good source of laughter after some time.

Until the obviously detectable cheaters like spinbots get INSTANTLY banned, I don't believe for a second they've "tried everything".

If hackers have to limit themselves to behaviour that looks like real skill, it's kind of unimportant to the games community if they're cheating. Cheaters only ruin the experience if they're obvious to the player.

Finally, something like Overwatch in CS, together with paid employees and PUBLIC bans of high paying cheater accounts (including hardware bans) would create a chilling effect, further forcing cheaters into hiding.
I once played some Hunt (difficult, highly competitive game, a little like CS) with people on ex professional level. They obviously had gaming PCs, but they ALL had super expensive 7? Channels headphones. It's apparently a thing among ex pro (or high level) Counter-Strike players to have these super headphones that let you know where people are before regular people can hear them.

They hushed me all the time because "someone's coming". Still a fun experience - to win for a change. Don't have to add that my role was more as a decoy then anything else.

It's important to understand that coloring plastics change their characteristics, though (I'll add the link if I can find it again).

Also, plastics have quality grades from "that's good stuff" to "this thing smells funny in a bad way". We have some IKEA food tweezers which use black plastic molded on steel prongs. It's stamped with "+150 degrees C" and the black is hazy, like it's colored with a dye or pigment, and plastic is hard like bakelite.

OTOH, I have used other "black" spatulas which are uniform in color, but neither as sturdy, nor smell neutral.

We have silicone counterparts to these items too. They're more rubbery, but they have hard plastic spines inside so, they don't flex.
Yup, I second this. The only thing I use Edge for.

This feels like a philosophical question at this point.

If the default object Kernel is always the same, then isn't it a global read variable? You can overwrite it, but it's globally accessible.

Also, the only true 'global' variables, are ones that you can access via Internet Protocol, everything you do in ruby, if you are not doing inter process communication, is going to be englobed by the process object.

Even if you write a variable to a file, it's still not 'global', it's encapsulated by the (physical) server object.

By reading or writing to a server through TCP to an open port public IP, the variable is then encapsulated only by the Earth object, so it's then and only then truly 'global'

No, wrong. The approval of that target of the parody (Amish, McDonalds, CIA etc) are not legally required.

Case law suggests that he is required to (and he does), license artist's music.

He's not parodying Miley Cyrus in 'Party in the CIA'. He's parodying the CIA. Because the lyrics and track aren't the subject, licensing of the track is required.

Similarly, If Repaer used a licensed font on the site, they'd have to license it.

Really? I fry eggs in a cast iron pan almost every day, with just a little cooking spray or wipe of oil (like, put a little oil in, wipe it out with a paper towel, painting the whole surface with oil in the process). I mean, it's not no oil, but it's far from copious amounts.

I agree that profit driven companies will never ever care about the morality or the safety or the social impacts of their choices.

I don't think, however, that "publishers would use disabled children slave labor if they could" is really an argument you ought to make.
The issue there is that that info is what Nvidia chooses to port out from the on-chip execution. Most of what we can do for observation is in the kernel driver space and not really on-chip or even low level transit to the chip. One of the other commenters pointed out that you can get huge benefits from avoiding busy waiting on the returned data from the chip, which makes total sense, but also increases latency, which didn't work for my near-realtime use case when I was investigating. Other than those types of low hanging fruit where you can accept a little latency for better power state management, it's hard to find low level optimizations specifically for Nvidia through the closed source parts of the CUDA stack or through the driver transit to chip when those are intentionally hidden.

A while ago, I read a paper on dissecting the Nvidia architecture using very specifically tuned microbenchmarking to understand things like cache structure on chip and the like [0]. Unfortunately, no one has done this for seriously in use, recent architectures, so it's hard to use this info today. Similarly, there isn't an eBPF VM running on the chip to summarize all of this and the Nvidia tools aren't intended to make this kind of info easy to get, probably specifically because of this paper...

In Hong Kong and Mainland China, the sidewalks are railed off everywhere except the crosswalk, presumably to prevent the anarchy that occurs when pedestrians are allowed to freely cross the road anywhere.

A little jaywalking is good, a lot of jaywalking renders the road unusable to cars. You don't have to be pro-car or anti-transit to recognize the inefficiency in having roads that are uselessly congested with erratic foot traffic.

Actually.... most likely no, unless you fudge the system clock. Root CAs will expire, chains of trust will break and your app most likely won't run unless you very carefully design it to not have any such dependency, not even indirectly through any of the imported libraries you use. Or your browser will throw an error and refuse to start for the same reason.

But hey, maybe you won't even be able to login if you do so through a Google/Microsoft/Apple ID.

They can’t afford a rainy day fund so they should buy a house?

I have a “cushy white collar job” and I can’t afford a house. Prices are absurd. I can make mortgage payments but it would destroy any other savings. Buying a house when poor isn’t a smart financial move.

I wish everyone could afford a house but that’s not the world we live in. Nothing will change until people wake up and stop killing themselves to inflate home prices.
The problem is that CUDA already does that, and they're not incentivized to really improve from that baseline, given the capability and ease of use of the ROCM or Intel solutions.
> They responded that they wouldn't fix it because barcodes aren't supposed to contain zero bytes.

Sad. What a poor understanding of our field.

The number one rule of them all is: "Never trust (user) input".

A slightly more powerful variation being: "assume all input is malicious until proven otherwise".

I mean: on one hand there are people who fuzz, who test, who think about edge cases, who think about security, who think about uptime, etc. And OTOH you have people saying "such input shouldn't happen". It's just really pathetic.

This is what I've been noticing. For C++ and Swift, it makes pretty unhelpful suggestions. For Python, its suggestions are fine.

Swift is especially frustrating because it will hallucinate the method name and/or the argument names (since you often have to specify the argument names when calling a method).

But that's why the government had to regulate it. If companies have financial incentive to do something they're going to do it, to make them stop that incentive must be removed. I don't think that comment was intending to justify the situation.
"goal" in this case meaning not "good for the economy, most businesses, and everyday people" - I think the implicit goal being "give asymmetrical power to larger and more entrenched organizations, at the detriment of literally everyone else, to help maintain and consolidate power."

I have.

There are situations where sorting by "number of positive ratings" works, but there are many (I'd say most?) where the downsides are impactful enough to make it a non-option.

The issues are creating a first-mover advantage and a feedback loop. This makes the ranking very... stable, but that's usually not desirable.

The first-mover advantage comes because you're using the absolute number, so things that have been around longer will tend to be ranked higher. Even in a system with positive and negative ratings, sorting by `positive - negative` only reduces the problem... not removes it. Something that's been around for a couple years getting 40% negative ratings is still going up by 20% of the total amount which will quickly be a big number to try and catch up to.

That alone is usually disqualifying, but to make it worse usually the ranking system is creating a positive feedback loop because it's what's driving exposure of the options. People will tend to look at / try / buy / etc the top ranked item before the lowest ranked. So you're driving most new ratings towards the existing top-ranked item and continuing to reinforce its place at the top.

You're basically ranking by "the oldest product that doesn't have net-negative ratings". That may be what you want, but usually it isn't.

(I've never seen it, but I guess if you had only _bad_ options, you'd actually get the opposite effect... the least worst product at the top, getting exposure, and being beaten down until a new least worst product takes center stage and your ranking system just oscillates like crazy.)

Where the simple ranking like this could work a little better would be where all the options are known up-front. There's nothing to "catch up" to since everyone started by the same starter pistol. If you have a positive feedback loop though, you are going to end up weighting earlier ratings heaver than later ratings.

The other case I can think of would be where the options you're ranking are few enough (such that position in the ranking doesn't really create much difference in exposure, reducing the positive feedback loop) and you're collecting few enough votes (further reducing it) and the items are fixed up front (removing the first-mover advantage) that none of this would really have a chance to have any outsized impact. I can't see an issue using this on a poll sent to a dozen people asking them which of 5 places they preferred for lunch.

I've used the "correct solution" from the article in the past. It worked well enough I didn't have to come back to it.

Yes, but the polynomial form generalizes to coefficients of an arbitrary field, not just naturals. If your vector were, say, [1.3, 2.197656, pi, -1/2, 3*2i] then there wouldn’t be a reasonable base you could pick for a place-value representation.

You're linking to literally the lowest end builder grade piece of crap* non flat range, you even picked the one that doesn't have the oven window! I've even had near slumlords at least spring for the windowed glass top GE special when it was on sale. (I say crap, but that is unfair, having used these growing up, they are simple and basically won't break down and exceptionally easy to get parts for and repair [because it doesn't have any, not even a timer], and if the tenants destroy it, who cares). But Ikea doesn't even cater to that market at all, so it's disingenous to use that as a counter example.

As I have gotten older, I have learned that "It Depends" is really a mantra for life.

I know of some folks that are dealing with mental health challenges. They are all dirt poor, on SSI/Medicaid, and terrified of losing these.

As a result, they don't try to get jobs, or advance themselves, socially. They don't take risks. Their therapists tend to encourage this stance.

I can't, with sincerity, say that they are all wrong, but I'll bet some of them are. If they pushed themselves, they could probably break free of their chains. But some of the others, would just break. I am not qualified to know which is which. I do my best to support them, and keep my opinions to myself. One thing I know for sure: I have no idea what other people can take, in their edges. Just because I can do something, doesn't mean that someone else can.

We advance, by pushing into our discomfort zone. There's a saying: "Winners do what they need to do. Losers do what they want to do."

It seems like people are really talking about different things with obscurity. Some are referring to badly designed weak systems, where secrecy and marketing hype is used to attempt to conceal the flaws. Others, like my comment above, are talking about systems carefully engineered to have no predictable or identifiable attack surfaces- things like OpenBSDs memory allocation randomization, or the ancient method of simply hiding physical valuable things well and never mentioning them to anyone. I’ve found when it is impossible for an external bad actor to even tell what OS and services my server is running- or in some cases to even positively confirm that it really exists- they can’t really even begin to form a plan to compromise it.
you're only focusing on the immediate, literal replacement cost though; what if (and there are as credible papers as this one, stating so) using a metal spatula on my teflon pan causes it to get into my food and that's what will kill me? Or various metals are an even bigger health risk?
