This means there's quite a lot of solutions. Running the entire 2^56 would take over 770 core-days if one core can achieve an impossible 1 giga-iterations per second.

How did he piss him off exactly? All I see here is a mentally sick (but mostly functional) manager/partner. It is a good story to remind ourselves how deranged some individuals are. And yeah, knowing how to handle the crazies is useful

Inspecting library calls has been automated in `ltrace`. It works like ptrace, but tracks all dynamic symbol calls instead of all syscalls. Making your own LD_PRELOAD takes more time. Though it is more flexible. LD_PRELOAD can also be used

I lol'ed pretty hard when I read the appendix. What an amateur job. All this time I was sure someone thought of the possibility of attaching a logic analyzer, or an $80 FPGA, to one of the pins.

It may look good in recruiter's papers. I.e. it looks like he did his job just right, but the candidate was dissatisfied with the package at the end. What can he do about it?

This is true, but then you have to also socially shame a large part of the US military, for invading Iraq. At least those that didn't resign as soon as it became clear that there are no WMDs there, and the large amount of Iraqis were k

Much of this stuff is classified as a weapon, and thus really sold by the Israeli government, not by the company. It's no different from a MANPADS that sometimes is used to destroy a Ka-52 over Ukraine, and sometimes is used to shoot d

It can bounce off of meteor trails or the moon. It's been done many times in the ham community. Signals do bounce off of aircraft too, there are even passive military radars that track airborne objects using DVB-T or other strong signa

You must have never heard of intelligence agencies, and spying in general. People vastly underappreciate the value that intelligence gives and the lengths to which they'll go just to get access to information. This is as old as humanit

You can also go to Cyrillic and then use the standard English transliteration: Hodów -> Ходув -> Khoduv. Though it might also have been Годов -> Hodov, with the Г pronounced in the Ukrainian / Belarusian / Ruthenian way,

You can't address the problem if you can't talk about it. Also it's not a maths problem that somehow some people got wrong, it's a problem with entire neighborhoods where it's dangerous to go to.

Clever Hans is just a proxy. ChatGPT and other LLMs obviously can process information on their own. These two have nothing in common, even GPT-3 would have noticed this.

The sad thing about it is that log loss is optimal when gambling (mental shortcut - see Kelly Criterion). This partly explains why such a large proportion of people lose much more than they win. Not only the bets are suboptimal, the ruin is

It's also a good reminder of how absolutely terrible most people are at gambling (judged by log-loss, like in the Kelly criterion). At the end you find out that almost 80% of people did worse than leaving the guess at 50%.

It's personal for everyone who cannot eat because the land that feeds them is turning into a desert. Being indigenous has nothing to do with it. At some point someone will run out of water, and we will de-carbonize in about 20 minutes.

Can you (or someone else) write more about the advantages of DC/DC voltage conversion? If I understand correctly this was the main advantage of AC, and the reason why was it chosen.
