But Twitter's board has to fight, no? Elon is essentially accusing them providing fraudulent statements. If they admit as-is, it can open a massive door for other lawsuits.

Binary dump / prewarmed up Python interpreter would be amazing even today. Could enable a lot use cases with Python.

Agreed. But unfortunately, nobody takes climate change (and related cost) seriously. You need a strong Federal government to enforce that cost structure (and hopefully globally, if strong enough), and the United States won't have a str

We had COVID-19 for 2 years. The U.S. is surging back with unique challenge of spending transition from goods back to services. It is a challenge. "A war causing a massive energy crisis" seems to be a good time to increase energy

The cause of this round is not some sudden bubble burst. Fed raise rates because they want to signal that they are serious about taming the inflation. That caused sharp sentiment change in capital market. The cause of this round of inflatio

That's why it is extremely frustrating to watch this unfold. The easiest way to kill inflation is to kill growth. But that won't help people in need anyway. An empty shelf of baby formulas are not a sign of "economy is too ho

I see. Yes, that makes sense. Unless the application do write / rename trick, otherwise the backup process will see torn write.

I think we need to be a bit more concrete than analogies for my brain to process. So here we go: If your application relies on multi-file collaborated persisted states (for example, an append-only log and a database snapshot), application c

Actually, I have a hard time to understand this. While snapshot reduces file corruptions, it is not a guarantee the best I understand. A corrupted file can manifest itself in many ways. But ultimately, it has to manifest itself as a busines

Other than sibling comments, I want to provide another counter-point (in this case, I have limited knowledge to say whether trusting European inspectors right or wrong): EASA heavily rely on FAA for 737-Max's initial certification ( ht

For a).1). you basically argued in favor of scalability. We don't know if we are on a training set more or less than a typical human at this point. If I would guess, I think high-bandwidth networked computers can be much more efficient

Repost from somewhere else: --- What bothers me in the past few days is to make sense of what’s happening in Shanghai. There are quite a bit of rumors, but nothing makes sense. However, now I think that I have arrived at a reasonable explan

Exactly. This is a never ending mouse-and-cat game. 2016 is when jailbreak mods still somewhat functional.

Snapchat has been more proactive on fighting bot than other competitors. You can easily copy the cookie from instagram.com and write a bot with puppeteer. You cannot just sniff the traffic from Snapchat app and hope to write a bot with that

Snapchat has been more aggressive at push notifications (such as @xxx friend posted a new story!) to move more MAUs / WAUs into DAUs category. These strategies have been employed by other competitors as aggressive as well though. So it

China exuberates when private sector exuberates. It is equally naive on both the West (like your comment) and the CCP side to think that being supported by the government and government-sponsored industrial espionage is / was the why o

Beyond and Impossible is doing well. Like solar, replacement would be harder sale. Focus on uniqueness, specific use cases probably better.

We all hope this to happen, as it is the best outcome. However, from what I can find, the support for this invasion, and Putin, is strong within Russia.

There are stances and desires. Our desire is to avoid WW3. But our stance cannot be "to avoid WW3 at any cost". The latter gives aggressor free pass for future invasions, possibly to a NATO ally, that would be a very undesirable s

It is a likely scenario. Rather than avoiding escalation (thus, given Russia a free pass as it is now), we should prepare for the worse and feel more comfortable for Russia's (almost) inevitable escalation to nukes. For one, the Cold W

There are a lot of noises. But probably not really felt in Russia for every day lives. At least for food and staple goods, the prices are not changed from what I can gather. Given time though, not sure. Especially China / India.

Lack of compression (or at the mercy of the file system) tends to be an issue. That is why people choose to use squashfs and then have a writable overlayfs on top of it.

It is a risky bet (and unlikely the next one after Putin would be any better). But it is also a deterrance. Anyone who would want to initiate a war in EU needs to think twice (if EU is successful this time) after this.

The problem is about the structure, not the math operations. We know for a fact how Turning-Completeness is enough for artificial intelligent machines (as these machines are mechanical, not quantum). Deep-learning is about the structure to

Not only that. A vdev with 15 disks each around 16 (or 18?) TiB with RAID-Z2 just asking for troubles ( https://www.zdnet.com/article/why-raid-6-stops-working-in-20... ). Even with 1% disk failures annually (based on Bac
