I think you're probably right, but maybe a bit too dismissive of the thought experiment.

> value representation is an abstraction which is determined by the semantics of member functions, not something a linker can easily have access to

This is the real problem. The GP's hypothetical extended linker could work even with semantic changes to the meaning of member variables, like in your sizes to pointers example, so long as all member functions are dynamically obtained from the shared library for that class (and no member variables are publicly exposed for use by application code). That means disabling inlining, which is a problem for templated code. Where does the machine code for std::vector<MyClass>::begin() go when MyClass is by definition unknown at the point when we're compiling the standard library? Even an exhaustive set of implementations for those known at that time isn't feasible (e.g. should the library contain code for vector<vector<int>>::begin()? What about 3 or more levels of nesting?)

One option might be if template class implementations were tailored to this situation by ensuring that any template class is just a thin inlined wrapper around a non-templated class (with non-inlined methods). Early template libraries actually were often a bit like this to avoid "code bloat", or still are to some extent. But to do it fully, the inner class would need to hold the size of the data type at runtime, and need callbacks for copy constructors etc. This is where the concept really starts to break down.
Gratuitously, maybe he has a device that can’t connect to WiFi network with a password. Realistically, probably just laziness. Neither of these are philosophical though…
That's a great idea! How does it work in reality? Also, what guarantees test correctness? How is it different from end-to-end tests?
They way I read it around here, those trusts would love it very much to get a healthcare system similar to the US one. Aren't they already well on the way?
And it will mysteriously _stop_ being able to send mail to Google despite you doing everything right, because of whatever nonsense they use to determine reputation.

My CTO is always talking about Palantir and how they are the future and how we need to figure out how to implement their services into our work.

However, I can't find any examples of what they really do or what kind of product they offer. I've watched multiple videos about Palantir including many interviews with Alex Karp. But I still can't figure out exactly what they do and how their products/services would help us at work.
Honestly, a sticky note on a monitor is more secure than what a lot of people actually do. At least there, physical access is required to obtain your credentials.

But what I do is use an offline password manager on my phone. Yes, I have to actually read and type in the passwords that I don't have memorized, but it's a small inconvenience to get an additional security gain. Plus, it's out of the reach of IT.

sometimes yes. but the blockchain is never in the hot path. it will be used only for what's designed to. align a set of nodes on the same view of the world. so, for notarization of deployments, node configuration, storage replication configuration, etc.
I assume only if you're setting it up to work "offline" with the app.
Issuing a key pair to the hardware and the app from their ecosystem's trusted authority does seem like a secure way to do it.
But surely the Shepherd would be aware of your soul's needs as well, and could pretend that your help is required somewhere in the system.

I think most people wouldn’t be fooled by this. People intuitively understand when their work is superfluous. They see that even if they slack off nothing blows up, no alarm bells sound, no production lines grind to a halt, no one dies.

People forget that a company known as IBM went bankrupt, was sold and reborn as a consulting enterprise like Accenture or McKinsey. The only thing that remained from the olden days are servers, in particularly z-series, which are modern days equivalents of mainframe solutions (and they are pretty awesome).
I trail run and hike in my Chaco sandals. I need the arch support. I also wear socks when I do it because then small stones and rocks don't cause any issues.
It's probably more that they add the online features because some users want them and then think if they already have that they can save some cents on buttons.

Also I seriously doubt the hosting costs are more than a rounding error for a multiple-hundred-dollar appliance.

Zigbee would be even better.
There's always git diff --word-diff, so a website tracking changes in laws in a Git repo could display diffs using that flag by default.
I used to have my policy set to reject, but then I found out some part of an Enterprise Outlook mail filtering chain was rewriting the mail I sent before checking the DKIM signature. I can't fix stupid, especially for other parties, so I changed the policy to quarantine instead.

I doubt Russian spammers will care about the difference to be honest. If they accept that their email will be delivered to spam folders, why would they care that the email gets silently dropped? In neither case anyone is going to fall for them.
Nice PWA. Congratulations
AI for Software Engineering Is Just Another "Paradigm Shift" – Honeycomb
$100 worth of work is not the same as solving $100 of proof of work puzzles. $100 worth of work produces some value to the local community in that you deliver goods or services that somebody else wants. A proof-of-work puzzle takes a resource (electricity/compute cycles), and destroys it. IMO, Proof of work puzzles are only useful as rate limiters. POW doesn't create value like chemical processes producing pharmaceuticals, or smelting iron ore producing steel.
The sentiment is sound in that everyone is vulnerable, but it's not a matter of stupidity. This is about being alert and attentive, not being smart or dumb.
I use C++ since 1993 and still refer to the standard library as STL, as do many WG21 members in many of their conference talks, do they don't know C++ very well?

It is a matter of habit and none of us are going to change, only because some folks think otherwise on the Internet.
we want to make sure that the users pay exactly what they used and that the nodes participating with compute/storage/network resources get rewards for what they contibute and can't spoof fake workload. given that we don't control the nodes that join the network, they can't be trusted so easily.
OK, conceded. I phrased that badly.
Oh this administration does that, too.
The explanation can't be that neat. You can have a stroke and lose language and still retain and form memories. Maybe there's a subtle effect but that's very different.
Ah ok:

> we found results indicating a twist [due to dazzle] of only about 7°, but a much larger “hysteresis” effect (∼19–23°) where perceived direction was drawn to the horizon regardless of dazzle. This effect combined both constructively and destructively with “twist”, depending on the direction of the target ship.

Could have just said that...
Maybe I come from a different perspective. In my case, the technology industry was a gigantic enabler for societal mobility, social ascention, education, and a way to connect to my community, where technology is important for their economic ascent as well.

Of course I am not trying to rationalize their side that is harmful for several societies, but at least for me, TC used to be the place where I could find companies doing something useful for a couple of people.

PersonallyI would pay a service like TC circa 2014-2017 that is a directory of start-ups/scale-ups and bring some great digest about the industry in a more nuanced view in terms of capabilities and new companies.
The SGI documentation for it was quite nice though.
the blockchain will never be in the hot path, during the execution. it will be used for notarization.
Urban Terror. That's a game I haven't heard about in a long time. It must've been somewhere between 1998-2002 I played it. Damn, we even had a clan, and I played it on my Linux PC.

Ive read that the Wright propeller is 80% as efficient as modern light-aircraft propellers. What an amazing achievement.
I know very little about these protocols, except for having to deal with them a bit on those few sad occasions I need to get a server to send email. From those experiences I had a strong sense that Google pushes out all these complicated and difficult procedures on everyone just as a means of discouraging people from using email servers in the first place...."just use google, we control the whole thing anyway".
> The root problem is that we don't actually need to keep track of email server reputation.

We actually do. Is the server allowing anyone to sign up so that it's sending 99% spam, or does it have a lot of anti-spam measures so sign-ups can't be automated and it blocks accounts as soon as it detects them sending spam?
If he didn't think it is a good law he would've said so, he avoided answering and the conversation died out after that because it was clear we couldn't move past that.

Purposely misgendering someone is indeed being an asshole but that's not the issue at hand. If someone calls me stupid or swears at me that makes me uncomfortable but I wouldn't expect he be reprimanded by the law by stripping away his freedoms.

we can easily agree on the problems:

1/ the cloud is riddled with inefficiencies -- whether you’re paying for idle resources, struggling with slow and unpredictable autoscaling, or dealing with the hidden complexities of serverless solutions.

2/ vendor lock-in is inevitable -- and the promise of seamless cloud computing remains unfulfilled.

3/ no matter the approach -- you’re locked into a costly, walled-garden ecosystem designed to maximize profit for providers rather than efficiency for users

but, how can you mitigate being too dependent on others and their whim when building a new network? can you guarantee that you'll have a distributed internal network fabric that ensures fast, reliable communication between compute nodes, while maintaining security and transparency?

godspeed! :-)

It's the F-35 of data now. It wasn't two months ago. Back then, in the before times, it was what your best ally was pushing.
We really need a "Trust on First Use"(TOFU) system for messaging, that can be verifified, or pre-trusted offline, face to face. It'd be awfully nice for your bank to give you some thing that you can later verify that any communication from them (web site, online banking, text message, email, etc) are legit and verified.

Or if we can't trust users to handle TOFU, then some token/unique address/whatever that we can exchange face to face to enable trusted communication.
Spoiler alert - they won't.

Cite me then as far you trust I'm representing my own truth. I don't even know what you are demanding exactly. There's not going to be any universal human truth so its going to be made up of opinionated reporting with arbitrary scientific assignments. You don't believe that the average person has positive feelings about walking on meadow or mud or whatever scientific endpoint? Or you don't think human touch is on average perceived positively? Or you want to see some +X years survival for those in arbitrary group compared to this other arbitrary group. Like I said, I believe what I experience, so very sorry to extrapolate a simple life experience almost universal to all humans since the dawn of time onto my suburban vice lord.
Well, yeah, we should use preexisting standards and OpenPGP would be perfectly fine here and is probably the best choice. That is a wheel we do not need to reinvent. But the actual system used to do the signatures and keep track of the reputation is the last thing we should be thinking about at this point. We should instead concentrate on how to create a system that the majority of people can use and understand. We should be concentrating on standardizing concepts...

I’ve personally been taking 7500 IU daily for many years now. Anecdotally (yes, I know, N=1) I have noticed I get sick less. I just did the math and apparently I’m taking the same dose as the participants in this article. I firmly believe the RDA is wrong, and the “high dose” of this article is closer to what the RDA should be.

I can’t find the article which caused me to originally start my 7500 IU regiment but there are many similar papers out now, such as:

This idea is much more than 8 years old. If my memory serves, achieving this via gene drive was first proposed in the 1980s, by using "transposable elements". If you'd like to learn more check out the following, only 25 years old (I think it cites the earlier work):

James, A. and Handler, A., editors (2000). Insect Transgenesis: Methods and
Applications. CRC Press, Boca Raton, FL. ISBN: 0849320283

Creating the right effector gene, and attaching it to a transposable element (or some other gene drive system) as the Imperial researchers and colleagues have apparently done is only one part of the battle. Getting this to spread in nature from introductions of mass-reared mosquitoes.. well that will be a big challenge also. To say nothing of the permitting as you mention.

The press release is remarkably devoid of any technical information on what they have accomplished.

>and critical methods aren't inlined

aren't inlined explicitly. This does not mean that they are not inlined in practice (depending on build options). Also, LLVM can look inside a noinline available method body for alias analysis :(

This is a big pain whenever one wants to do formally-UB shennenigans. I'm not a rustacean, but in julia a @noinline directive will simply tell LLVM not to inline, but won't hide the method body from LLVM's alias analysis. For that, one needs to do something similar to dynamic linking, with the implied performance impact (the equivalent of non-LTO static linking doesn't exist in julia).
It's incredible how much depth we (I) discount in other professions on knee-jerk reaction. I can see how there's much more than I was thinking in such personalized systems.

Yes, it's normal (should be above 65C, anyway). Yes, even "dishwasher-safe" plastic items often warp or discolor in a normal hot dishwashing cycle. I wouldn't put anything plastic or fragile in the dishwasher, but virtually everything in the kitchen is ceramic, glass, or stainless steel, so.

Yeah, being able to record sounds that the washer makes would probably also enable you to analyze things people say and extract much more information than 'how many people live there' and 'are they home or not'.

Seems like the painful point of sodium-ion is mainly the weight/size (per unit of power)...

Right now it looks like it takes ~75% more space for the equivalent power... after two decades like Lithium-ion has had, can that reach current density/size for the same power, or will it hit a cap?
