When the data is read-only, sparse linear filters get up to an O(ln 2)-factor smaller storage space at the cost of slower construction and inability to add items on the fly. These include xor-sat filters, xor/xor+ filters, smashed/bumped ribbon filters, frayed ribbon filters, binary fuse filters, probably a few other options.

The basic idea is that instead of table[hash1(x)] & table[hash2(x)] & ..., you calculate table[hash1(x)] ^ table[hash2(x)] ^ ... basically substituting XOR instead of AND. To construct the table, you need to solve a big system of linear equations. The various filter types change the parameters (mostly load factor of the filter) and indexing function (turning the hash into something where the bits you look up have correlated positions) in order to make structured equations that are easier to solve.
ah, we could definitely do better in communicating that. Most of the work is ahead of us but we currently help ai devs in a few ways:
- designing with sessions as the atomic unit -- we wanted them to be spun up and discarded in a serverless way w quick boot times. That way you would have these quick or long-running sessions that agents can just jump in and out of or as a building block for custom tools. We also expose debug urls so you can embed viewable sessions into you app in a Devin-esque UI.
- In the Open-source API, we expose some features that allow you to turn webpages into more LLM-friendly formats for consumption like: markdown, readability, screenshots, and pdfs.

It does just so happen that it ends up being useful for non AI apps as well

Just look into cement, steel, mining, medicine &c. we're not even remotely close to replace fossil fuel, not even a tiny bit, no one even pretends that it's around the corner.

> would not avoid eventual massive global warming

Well nothing will because in a couple of hundred millions years the sun will be too warm anyways

Meanwhile 70% of the wildlife disappeared since 1970, 50% of insects, and we're debating about some shitty tech that would sequester 0.1% of the co2 we emit each day. CO2 isn't even our biggest problem, rain water isn't even safe to drink anywhere on the planet anymore, PFAS, microplastics, chemicals in rivers/lake/aquifers

People who think co2 capture and that replacing 1.4b of ICE by 1.4B of 3000kg EVs are the future are delusional or straight up cognitively impaired
Haha, would love to write one. Will get started on a draft once I get the time. :)
I'm even less sure what to make of this article after developments over the past two weeks and especially this past weekend: It seems to be mostly Rust FUD wrapped in a screed against RAII, implying that somehow Rust will harm the kernel, maybe. But in the past two weeks...

16 Nov, Linux 6.13 Introducing New Rust File Abstractions, https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.13-Rust-File-Abstract

26 Nov, 3K Lines Of New Rust Infrastructure Code Head Into Linux 6.13, https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.13-Rust

30 Nov, Linux 6.13 Hits A "Tipping Point" With More Rust Drivers Expected Soon, https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.13-char-misc-More-Rust

That last one is particularly interesting, with the following quote from Greg K-H: "rust misc driver bindings and other rust changes to make misc drivers actually possible. I think this is the tipping point, expect to see way more rust drivers going forward now that these bindings are present. Next merge window hopefully we will have pci and platform drivers working, which will fully enable almost all driver subsystems to start accepting (or at least getting) rust drivers. This is the end result of a lot of work from a lot of people, congrats to all of them for getting this far, you've proved many of us wrong in the best way possible, working code :)"

If one is really hard pressed to use a windows box, I have found WSL to be a godsend. (eg at work, which is luckily at a relatively small company where IT isn't as locked down as other places I've worked.)

On the other hand, I tried to use powershell the other day for some simple admin tasks and ooooh wow I sure don't have anything nice to say.

Also my living is made on the Windows side, and not the Linux side, so I guess I don't know the pain points of WSL.
X86 cores remain pretty good at branchy, lightly threaded codes, right?

Email sw@seanw.org with a short description of 1) your project 2) how you think I can help 3) the business outcome you’re looking for and 4) any deadlines. I can get back to you in one working day to arrange a call to discuss a quote and how we can work together!
A chronological list of all the commits that affected a line of code. I've often gone and looked at a line, looked at the blame for that line, and then had to traverse backwards through history to find where the change I'm interested in happened. Using the GitHub UI, this takes a considerable amount of clicks.

1) Click on a file
2) Click blame
3) Click the parent commit SHA
4) Click View File
5) Click blame

Repeat as you traverse back in history.
>systemd for example commonly runs services under separate users

Doesn't this have to be manually setup. Can i make systemd to run a service under a temporary user automatically.
I guess so. As a business owner/administrator it’s easy to see how your interests align in this way. As a worker your priority should be the opposite of course.
Well, it at least assumes the cost to setup the AWS way is sunken. What is a given for anybody that may hire them.

But if you are starting from scratch instead of looking for someone to help you migrate, then yeah, the AWS way has probably higher setup costs than making it portable.
Degrowth doesn't work either, it's not a solution and nobody will ever go for it. From the abstract of Reviewing studies of degrowth: Are claims matched by data, methods and policy analysis?:

> (2) the large majority (almost 90%) of studies are opinions rather than analysis;

> (3) few studies use quantitative or qualitative data, and even fewer ones use formal modelling;

> (4) the first and second type tend to include small samples or focus on non-representative cases;

> (5) most studies offer ad hoc and subjective policy advice, lacking policy evaluation and integration with insights from the literature on environmental/climate policies;

> (6) of the few studies on public support, a majority concludes that degrowth strategies and policies are socially-politically infeasible;

That isn't the right analogy.

To start, royalties have nothing to do with copyright. They are simply an agreement between an author and a publisher. I give you the exclusive right to publish my book, and I get a cut of every sale.

Royalties extend far beyond creative fields. Any deal where someone gets a percentage share of the sale of a product or service on an ongoing basis is a "royalty". E.g. in manufacturing or even software.
All US parking garages have exactly that and it's so weird. Nobody reads them (what, from your car before paying and entering? LOL, nobody even reads the smaller notices attached to the payment machines, nor half the text the displays print during an interaction) so all the work at writing, printing, and posting them is just a kind of weird secular-religion ritual.
Well, in the UK, sometimes you can!
There’s a very clear bias and idolization in this comment of yours which is based on a misunderstanding of the case at hand.

ARM aren’t trying to force Qualcomm to use ARMs cores. They’re trying to force them to update the licensing royalties to make up for the (as ARM sees it) licensing term violations of Nuvia who had a design license for specific use cases.

The part you reference (using ARM designs) is the fallback if Qualcomm lose their design license.

The destruction of the chips is standard practice to request in cases of license and IP infringement .

I would love to prove my point by actually becoming a billionaire, but my point is that the system is stacked against folks like me. Gotta have a nature paper to get a job in Genentech fresh out of PhD. Who gets nature papers? People who join labs that already publish nature papers. Who gets to join there? Valedictorian Who undergrad in top schools. Apparently the odds are stacked the moment you slack off in eigth grade lol.

I have done my PhD, I need to take a break to actually take care of my family and immigration. I hope to get back to this field at some point, in my own terms, and see if I can succeed. If it works, it works! If not Who cares right! Let's see.
RDA for Iodine is kind of low. The upper limit is actually quite high and the Wolff-Chaikoff effect seems to be either temporary or not even real. But have your thyroid checked if you're going to supplement Iodine just to be sure.
Something is off with your source references. Chatterjee's amended complaint is a legal document filed under penalty of perjury, accepted by a US judge, available publicly, apparently not "thrown out". How does an earlier document figure into this? How do we know it was "thrown out" and for what reason? Obviously, a later document is what matters.

Also, you are using an unreviewed document from Google not published in any conference to counter published papers with specific results, primarily the Cheng et al paper. Jeff Dean did like that paper, so he can take it up with the conference and convince them to unpublish it. If he can't, maybe he is wrong.

Perhaps, you are biased toward Google, but why do think we should trust a document that was neither peer-reviewed nor published at a conference?
How do they know it's tasteless???

Or maybe they mean that it's tasteless (as in uncultured or gauche) to kill your enemies with nerve gas instead of a more elegant weapon.

Somehow I suspect HEVC suddenly became a thing in the past few years precisely because AVC patents are expiring.
Monetary inflation happens when the money supply grows too fast. To reduce inflation, the government pulls money out of circulation. Taxes are one way to do this, but not the only way. Interest rates are another way, and increasingly are the primary way.
One of my favorite series in the last few years. The tech side of things are believable enough (at least compared to the usual handwavy nature of sci-fi books) and now I understand why, as it seems Wells has a history in IT!

I'm struggling to not gush about this book and trying to avoid spoilers, but if you like a good sci-fi action/adventure book with a strong lean towards a journey of self discover it's really worth a read.

In reality, those kinds of names are generally not intended as some kind of trophy in the first place.

It's more organic. They just grow out of colleagues, speaking amongst themselves, referring to a fellow colleague's particular idea or elaboration. They all share a common base understanding of their field, many know of the colleague directly, and all know how to look something up if they know the colleagues name and gist of the idea. And so that's how they refer to it.

Once in a while, these so-named insights prove really important or lasting -- after the fact -- and the name continues to stick because it's the one everybody was using. Meanwhile, most of the time, the insights just kind of fade back into the baseline body of knowledge and either don't break out at all or evolve through some collaborative work that earns a more formal name.
An undergraduate text like Pugh's Real Mathematical Analysis can have over 500 exercises. Trying to do them all on top of your regular workload seems excessive, unless maybe it's an area you really want to specialise in. I also tend to find certain kinds of exercises boring because they appear terribly unmotivated.

On the other hand, I second the suggestion to engage more deeply with the subject material itself: Modify assumptions and see what happens. Can certain proofs be simplified? Try to reconstruct proofs by only memorising certain key details. Try to draw a mental map of a subject and how the different theorems and definitions relate together. Try to implement some proofs in an automated theorem prover, if that's your thing.
Not just at runtime.
These types of messages largely stem from NIST 800-171 (and related standards). Specifically NIST 800-171 has the control "Display a system use notification message with privacy and security notices consistent with applicable CUI [controlled unclassified information] rules before granting access to the system." So it is very common when dealing with companies that are government contractors or subcontractors. 800-171 also sometimes gets used as a security framework even when not dealing with the government so these requirements sometimes end up outside those contexts as well.
Has anyone done this sort of test on people?

But it seems unnecessary given the existence of its laws. For example, CFAA makes unauthorized use of a computer system illegal regardless of whether the system communicates it. Perhaps these messages originated prior to the CFAA, in which case perhaps they were necessary back then, and nobody has dared to remove them.

This is unlike trespassing in the US, however, which does require informing the person (written in a conspicuous location, or direct verbal conversation) they are unwelcome on whatever land they began accessing, and allowing them to promptly retreat, before any violation is committed. Access is generally permitted (e.g., to allow for unsolicited deliveries) prior to such communication.
It is strategically important for the US to be ahead in technology; however Intel is no longer ahead and is not really the strategic asset it used to be.

One of my tenants (Roo) had run a chain of hobby stores but got into an accident and had TBI problems and lost his business.

He wanted to start a new hobby store but could only get half of the bank loan he needed to get started. I asked him if he'd ever considered equity financing and said I'd be interested in investing. The next day he asked me if I was serious, I told him yes, but I could only invest a few thousand dollars and he'd have to find other investors to do the rest.

So we got it started and the store ran for about ten years with ups and down until it went out of business. I certainly got more rent out of those tenants (who I particularly liked) than I invested in the store. Got plenty of things on store discount too. Roo's TBI problems did cause problems for the business because he did not keep up with the paperwork which led us into a near death experience which we were able to get out of because of the loyalty of our consumers.

Today in our area we have a few stores who sell some of the stuff we were selling but not all of it. I don't think there is a model train store in town but there are a few places that have a back room where you can play D&D so we were pioneering in some sense.
QNAP has the QSW-M2116P-2T2S-US. Has 16 ports of 2.5G, 2x10G (copper), and 2x10G SFP+. The 10G ports support 10G/5G/2.5G unlike the older 10G chipsets.

Also has 280 watts of PoE. Goes for $700 or so.
The Post Office scandal at its core was a political/legal problem, not an engineering one.

Software needs to be transparent, a human expert worker needs to be able to verify the result a software generates within reasonable time.

There is no expertise for software that you could delegate to aside from an entity using some form of integration test.
Theoretically yes. Practically no, unless you're 1 in a million genius/savant (but in that case you would not ask this question).

You need some example, some role models to look up to.

And it's usually not about some tech details (you can google it), but about some important style of work, ways of thinking, approaches to engineering, attitudes etc.

Something that you can't find in books, yet it is very real and important for hi quality engineering work.

At the same time it is not necessary for a relatively successfull career. Most of the companies are fine with mediocre software products (you can see this around you lol) and would not pay more for higher quality work.

So the ultimate answer depends on your definition of "grow as an engineer" :)
Yeah because back then the tech stack was:

php
apache
mysql
linux

it was so small we could put it into an acronym.

Meanwhile in 2024 you could barely begin to even describe any individual layer of the stack with so few words. You'd be out of breath before even beginning to finish describing React.

Optimization adventures: making a parallel Rust workload even faster with data
For the context Ripple (XRP) has skyrocketed in price over last few weeks. This is because it is expected the US will finally 1) have sane cryptocurrencies regulation 2) it is going to friendly for Ripple 3) most buyers come from Upbit South Korea where XRP has had a long fan base.

Even among cryptocurrency fanatics Ripple enjoys somehow spotty reputation, due to not being executing and delivering many of its promises over the last decade. Some consider it as "boomer coin" or "scam".
I never said that I disapproved of it. In fact, I think the ambitious goals of Star Citizen are great. On the other hand, Roblox bothers me a lot. However, I know I also make purchases that others don't understand. I don't think there are any clear lines to be drawn; the gaming industry is generally exploitative. I wish it were easy to find solid games without all the cruft.

Yeah but this is basically about countable and uncountable sets. It's rather counter-intuitive that the rational numbers are countable. So it's possible to create even a bijective mapping between rational numbers and natural numbers. On the other hand real numbers (which number types in programming languages try to approximate) are uncountable

You might have noticed that TFA was discussing a programming language, Pony, that uses floating point. The behavior of the reals isn't relevant.
