what do the people who make and manage money learn, and could clever people be taught this skill too? maybe instead of spending their afternoons on the golf course like wealth managers they could pursue research and teach. how difficult could it be?
Still in principle in places like say the arab states where you could stick a lot of solar in the desert, and there's a need for desalination it could work in principle. Though I think they still tend to use oil.
To be fair though: printing also will likely impact timing and can change concurrent behaviour as well.

Still agree that print debugging is more useful in such situations (and I prefer it in general).
LoL is owned by Tencent and under Chinese jurisdiction so I think she works for

and is in a different hierarchy though the CCP probably thinks Xi is the boss of him.

Tamamo-no-Mae was the most famous 9 tailed fox in Japan, her incarnations in Fate usually have 1 tail so far as I know, I think they have a story that she got split into nine entities (Tamamo JK, Tamamo Cat, …) but Type Moon hasn’t finished the job and there not that many in Grand Order.

My wife told me nine tails was absurd, how would you draw that? Well they do it in

Which has several forms of Tamamo-no-Mae also known as Da Ji in China hat really have nine tails. All I can say is it would be pretty fluffy to spoon with such a beast.

If the system is backdoored, do none of these things. Boot from rescue media. Save only non-executable files and wipe the rest.

Do not trust key material, sensitive data or remote logins that the backdoored system have had control over. Repeat the same operation for them.

To check for backdoors, again boot from rescue media and do a full integrity check. Do not limit the check to open files.
I thought about it about 20 years ago, found you could actually get a lot of crap for publishing on the subject, and decided I’d rather build systems than take them apart.
Working on it https://ont.fyi

The approach is not to capture all pages you view, rather you can add the pages etc you want in order to reduce the amount of noise/rubbish. It constructs a knowledge graph from these documents, and then a graph rag approach ontop to enable chat.

The core graph is based on wikidata, you can have your graphs either private or public if so they are published like those you can see on the site now.

Lots to do, but making ing good progress, if this sounds like something you might want to use please sign up.
I routinely ship 50mbit media streams over the internet, and sometimes streams up in the 200mbit range. In campus streams are up in the 10gbit range.

Over bonded networks bitrate are typically under 40mbit, and usually under 20

Of course none of this uses tcp.
Don't browsers have some of the best dev tools out there? For example, you can use the `debugger`[0] statement in your JS code to trigger the in-browser debugger when that statement is hit (its basically setting a breakpoint).

Multithreading and locking are the areas where print/blinking LED on microcontroller based stuff and some other trickery are useful. Otherwise I prefer "normal" debuggers like with powerful IDE
What'd be funny is to take a bunch of teens who have never attended a church service and have them sit through the different denominations' services to get their reaction.

The only thing funnier than witnessing a Catholic mass while having no idea of what it's like beforehand is the idea that some people still fervently argue for the masses to be exclusively in Latin. Because if there's one thing better than medieval LARPing, it's medieval LARPing in a dead language.
Your calculations are incorrect. Use common sense, models, and first principles. Light point source irradiance is E = P/4πr², so inverse square law. It's 1361 W/m² at Earth's distance of 1.5e11 m. Solar Orbiter dips down to 4.2e10 m. ¼ the distance,

Total solar power output = 4 * π * (1.5e11 [m])² * 1361 [W] = 3.85e26 W/m²

Sun's "surface" irradiance = TSPO / (4 * π * (6.96e8 [m])²) = 6.32e9 W/m²

At Solar Orbiter's perihelion, assuming the distance from the Sun's point center rather than the Sun's surface = TSPO / (4 * π * (4.2e10 [m])²) = 1.74e4 W/m².

^ Except for Earth's irradiance and the distances, these are theoretical rough values rather than observed ones because reality is messier than simplified models.
It's an adoption barrier.

I don't recall the ZX80 being particularly popular though it was the first computer for under £100. It wasn't until the following year that the ZX81 was released (£70) which could support moving graphics that opened the door to gaming even though it was severely limited and the display was only in black and white.

I remember being mightily impressed by 3D Monster Maze on the ZX81

I think that Wayland actually has some steps in the right direction, but overall I don't think it's actually a very good alternative. It's way more low-level than X11 and a lot of higher level features, like window decorations, are not even officially supported.
It's not. It's a scheme that arose out of behavioral economics.

I still use a debugger for much of my print debugging needs by setting non-suspending breakpoints. This is useful because it allows me to change the printing dynamically, set breakpoints in library code, attach to running processes, and more.

> Please hold off on replying further on this thread until you have read OP's linked paper.

This continues the holier-than-thou attitude, but also violates this site's rules.

Not only I have read the entire court transcript, I was following it with interest as it happened. My point still stands. It is sleazy, to say the least, to misquote the whistleblower. It is even more sleazy to base such quote on "something the defendant claimed that the plaintiff claimed in a civil lawsuit".

This is point #1 on this "critique" and already rings all alarm bells, which is what my comment was about.

Google also did many, many evils during the entire trial (e.g. through the entire SLAPP thing) that no wonder they did not want to expose to the public. But that's another story.

> How large do you imagine the conspiracy is here?

Not large. Google continuously publishes papers where the results cannot be reproduced, at least by the time the paper is published, and barely gets a slap on the wrist from Nature, which is supposed to enforce these things.

> The method is secretly bad, but the TPU team uses it in production anyway? MediaTek built on it anyway? The TF-Agents team claimed to reproduce it, but they're actually lying?

Neither Tensor nor Mediatek are examples of really high-stages design; Tensor is not know for beating any records and Mediatek specializes in value.

While my area is frontend rather than backend, I have a passing familiarity with automatic macro placement (due to the fact that the barriers between flow steps keep getting thinner every day). Almost every other chip house of large-enough size has a macro placer. Almost every PhD student has implemented one. It's an easy problem, and with minimal knowledge about your design style you can likely do a better job than the generic ones from major vendors. However, it doesn't matter if you have the best macro placement engine in the world, your results would still not be ground-breaking overall. You can in fact ALSO do a terrible job and still get a pretty decent result since the flow will compensate. This was already my informed opinion even before the Nature article, but for Google's method, which _requires_ another placement tool to refine its work, would be even more true. And Google's method even requires a GPU farm for something that is, while important, still a relatively short step in the entire placement flow (and for not very push-through performance designs like Google's or MediaTek's , which are like the bread and butter of the world, the entire flow would not have required GPUs before). It's no wonder than the whistleblower thought the entire point of this Nature article was for Google to sell more Google Cloud GPU time. They may have convinced Mediatek, but not the academic community.
What do you mean "accused of"? This has been the official and government-wanted policy for years in some countries, so much so that there are specific laws that ensure young academics by default cannot expect a long-term career in academia.
From the article
"I agree that a toxicological investigation of this anion would be useful now that we know its identity, but I am not overly worried about my tap water,” says Oliver Jones, Professor of Chemistry at RMIT. “The compound in question is not newly discovered, just newly defined. Its presence in some (not all) drinking waters has been known for over 30 years."

Chloramine has been in broad use for over a hundred years and this breakdown byproduct was well documented over 50 years ago and detectable in water over 30 years ago. What the article is claiming as new, or a "Phantom" is that someone imaged its particular molecular structure and is now requesting funding to run toxicology studies on it. There is no current reason to believe that it is harmful since tens of millions of exposures have not indicated any reactions to it over the past hundred years.
Don’t forget Steven Vickers. The user manual he wrote for ZX Spectrum was my first programming book. It was really well written!

Interestingly, Vickers co-created another interesting machine from the 80s - Jupiter Ace which used Forth instead of Basic.
Sure, but none of these are true alternatives because they are missing a lot of features that libraries like GLFW or RGFW have.

(They may be good alternatives for certain use-cases)
Surely you'd also support the death penalty for developers that cause multi-million dollar bugs?

Can you clarify what do you mean please?
Looking at API providers like Together that host open source models like Llama 70b and running these models in production myself, they have healthy margins (and their inference stack is much better optimized).
I just have the Makefile do the code generation, it would be annoying for the user, but they can complain to Wayland if they don't like it.
If I understand the use case correctly, then, in Swift, Tasks provide exactly what you have described. You can use the Task object in multiple places to await the result.
Just don't forget to remove your print statements in the end ...
I have very good reason to believe otherwise, but I do prefer your view of the world if given a choice. It’s a happier path to stay on until you find it no longer fits your experience.

Kinda like the billions of dollars that the DOD “can’t” account for.

You ever try to get the DOD to hand you a few million dollars? There’s a bit of paperwork involved.

Accounting is not hit or miss, and it’s not exactly an unexplored frontier. Its a pretty safe bet that when a well funded, fully staffed organization “can’t” account for some amount of money, it’s because someone along that path wanted it to be that way, or was negligent in such a way that it is equivalent to intent.

To clarify, I’m not maligning the DOD here. It’s just their way of saying “you don’t need to know.” Overall, the DOD is a great business partner, and I would recommend anyone with relevant high quality services to look into contracting with them. Aside from the relatively stringent paperwork requirements, they are responsive, diligent, and pleasant to work with.
While print-type debugging has a place, the reason there are a lot of articles dissuading the practice is the observed reality that people who lean on print debugging often have incomplete knowledge of the immense power of modern debugging tools.

This isn't just an assumption I'm making: years of being in developer leadership roles, and then watching a couple of my own sons learning the practice, has shown me in hundreds of cases that if print-type debugging is seen, a session demonstrating how to use the debugger to its fullest will be a very rewarding effort. Even experienced developers from great CS programs sometimes are shocked to see what a debugger can do.

Walk the call stack! See the parameters and values, add watches, set conditional breakpoints to catch that infrequent situation? What! It remains eye opening again and again for people.

Not far behind is finding a peer trying to eyeball complexity to optimize, to show them the magic of profilers...
Was about to say the same. Haven't PhD students usually done tutorials and supervised labs to undergraduates for the extra cash. Certainly was the case in my electronics undergrad course a few decades ago.

> in 2023-24 one in five tutorials (20%) were taught by hourly-paid tutors – typically PhD students or academics at the start of their career.

It feels like the author is making the opposite point when they distinguish between logging and print debugging. Logging being the permanent bits of code, that either ship with the program or are disabled when the code is built for release. Print debugging are temporary bits of code that are manually added and removed as needed and is never intended to ship. If that is the distinction being made, then print debugging is problematic since the developer has to be diligent about removing it once it is not longer needed.

That said, I use print debugging all of the time. It is simply more practical in many cases.
You clearly do not know a single real thing about America. America itself is a con job from to back, to to bottom, left to right. Between the reserve currency global fraud, the inflation money printing, the scam startups, the deficit spending and national debt fraud, the various banking and financial frauds, even our children are raised with fraudulent schemes with things like the “fundraising” through selling Girl Scout cookies and circulate bars. All the scamming online, in our professional lives, personal lives, or fake religious groups and political entities, is all just snake oil heritage and the rich plundering the country through a fraud based economy.

It’s something that most Europeans that come to America either are shocked by or fall prey to, because not only are laws tighter in Europe regarding fraudulent activities, but in many places of Western Europe, society is still relatively high trust and of good morals and ethics with little of the overt and blatant open scamming and lies you see in America on a daily basis to such a degree that most Americans cannot even see it.

A more apparent example of that is our stores in America that are always having a BIG BIG SALE of up to 80% OFF. When it’s just the same market prices claiming to be 80% discounted from some made up price.
Even then, that's what GLFW is designed to do, and it's entire source code is still far larger than RGFW's.

Even sex isn't fully binary; there are people with other sex chromosome combinations than XX or XY. And people who, due apparently entirely to biology (endocrinology stuff, how their bodies react to hormones etc), develop different sexual characteristics than their XX or XY chromosome combo typically leads to.

So even "there are only two biological sexes" -- while less untrue than "there are only two genders" -- is apparently not an entirely 100% "true biological fact".
I think a lot of people struggle with decision-making in their lives. For me personally, I tend to take time to go through all my options, think about them for a while, and make what I think is the most logical choice given the facts at hand. If I have to make a rushed decision, because we are not always given the luxury of time, I trust my gut with the facts as they are presented to me in the moment.

Do I make mistakes, sometimes? I also beat myself up over them more than I should. The important thing though is to learn from the mistake to be better prepared next time. Here are a few tips that may be suitable for you.

1. Always view your problem from different perspectives instead of sticking with your initial solution. ...
2. Do not make a decision just because it is the most comfortable. ...
3. If you already have your mind made up, do not just seek information that supports what you want to do. ...
4. Focus on the decision that is in front of you and your present situation.

To each their own. I've read books in my second language that were translations of English books I'd already read. To be fair, that had been mostly pedagogical. I've also read multiple translations of the Illiad, for example, and don't know any ancient Greek. I've also read modernizations of Shakespeare.

Art is a complex thing, and doesn't really respect the commodity form. The same "work" can be totally different to people with different experiences, skills, neuroses, etc. You can read the same book twice and enjoy it, or not, differently each time. People enjoy live music exactly because each performance is different. Ultimately we're all trying to wring meaning from our lives, and art is a tool to give you some leverage in that work.

I view Swift‘s Tasks as a thread-like abstraction that does what the author is asking for. Not every Task is providing structured concurrency in the strict sense, because cancellation has to be managed explicitly for the default Task constructor. But Tasks have a defined runtime, cancellation, and error propagation, if one chooses to use a TaskGroup, async let, or adds some glue code. The tools to achieve this are all there.
Is this a solution they rolled on their own? Cause it's abysmal. I've seen Leaflet being used for gigapixel images and it's great, even if it seems unorthodox.
My point was, that in the js/node universe - the extreme stances seem to be the default already.

In a world with UBI (or in a world where creators are aristocracy who don’t have to worry about money) I would agree. In a world of precarity, obviously many people are going to desire to limit reuse of their creations unless they get rewarded for it somehow.
