Your last comment brings this quote to mind: > It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it. No one is suggesting encouraging or tolerating theft of intellectual property. Peo

Would you mind expanding on what this automated lighting system is?

You'd use a BCD to 7 segment display circuit [0]. At least that's what we did in my digital systems design course. Depending on what number you're trying to display you light up different parts of the segmented display. [0]:

ln(5) * 10 / 2 ~= 8.047 ln(5 * 10 / 2) ~= 3.219 So it does matter.

Absolutely, not disputing that. I just took offense to the "Calling yourself an engineer when you studied Computer Science is a bit odd to me" statement. I don't think the degree makes the difference, the licensing does.

I'm fully OK with the distinction because of the licensing process and strict requirements on engineer-certified work, but as someone with a CS degree from a Canadian university I can tell you with confidence that my friends in the sof

Surely routine ZFS scrubs would mitigate this?

If you're referring to Algo, you're correct, but it's intended to only setup a server, not a client. Having an Ubuntu VM or VPS available to host a VPN is a reasonable assumption to make.

If anyone is interested in setting up a VPN with wireguard [0], I'd like to whole-heartedly recommend Algo [1]. It's a set of Ansible scripts that sets up a dual IPSec/wireguard VPN on a VM or other machine. Wireguard itself

Slightly off-topic, but boy you weren't kidding. That topic is ungoogleable if you don't know the specific term for it. I spent 20 minutes or so trying various combinations of words trying to get it.

I wouldn't go so far as to say that there's no federal agencies in the DC Stingray soup, but how can you say it's more likely to be federal agencies in DC of all places? If there was a single city in the US that foreign age

I can't find the link on mobile right now, but there was an article I read a while back (on HN, actually, I think) where someone did statistical analysis on the speech patterns of Trumps tweets and correlated those with times he was kn

One particularly expensive component of stuxnet is deniability . Although the commonly accepted theory for stuxnet's invention is "a state actor", specifically the United States, there's no proof of that at all. And con

Your comment reminded me of an interesting video I saw a while back. The video is a talk [0] by a programmer explaining and demonstrating how he developed and used a voice recognition system to program in emacs, after a significant RSI inju

Can I use rust as my higher level language of choice? :) In all seriousness though, I wonder if once Moore's law really stops we'll see a surge of innovation in compiler and language paradigms, born out of necessity. It seems to m

Surely it'd be much easier for them to open a new test site than to finally open denuclearization talks? I think this is only a contributing factor to their decision, at best.

So just start measuring in bits of SRAM per unit of volume?

Exactly. Why aren't all websites run in containers by default (personally I'm envisioning per-domain containers)? What benefit do we get from full-coverage containerization not being the default?

If you think human judgement is going to deliver truly good content, then you either haven't been introduced to the concepts of "clickbait" and "the reddit frontpage".

To be fair, these realizations are a commonly reported effect of psychoactive drugs. They are common, and the realizations are strong enough that the participants occasionally internalize those ideas. Whether or not they're true object

At least at the moment, downloading the file once removes it from Mozilla's servers. So in the event typer.in used the URL you provided to download the file, you would know as the file would no longer be accessible.

You'd probably want it as a subdomain instead of requiring people to register 2 domains to support a thin version.

On a similar note, I wonder how much money the Chinese government could make if they used the method they used to DDoS Github [0], but instead to load crypto-coin mining JavaScript onto every Baidu user's computer? Then again, that see

I think the problem here is that you are still the one that needs to develop the equations of motion that will be tested for compression. What this describes is a method for testing theories, not generating them. You still need to stu
