A few interesting things : The sum of all mission-detailed satellites is lower than the total (even thought there’s a « no recorded » line There’s a grand total of 58 surveillance satellites around the earth today ? Yeah... I think there’s

On my iphone, I can’t jump to the links, and if I try to select a URL, it switches to edit mode and I can’t even switch tabs because the keyboard is constantly taking over. I was interested by the title but will skip the article because of

for those who want to know about who's impacted : "Intel. We notified Intel about our findings, including a preliminary writeup and proof-of-concept code, on January 31st, 2019. Intel had acknowledged the issue and requested an em

That's a very interesting take. I feel like they're all very urgent to tackle. People are losing faith in the political system and I fear they are also losing faith in the judicial system. Do you think the people would be OK with

I love the idea and the interface. I think the stories are a bit convoluted and confusing. Such problems are inherently hard to understand, convey and fix, and this is an example. The "finding the issue" aspect is interesting but

I think it's impressive, but maybe not for the same reasons as the OP : that means that keyword lookup accounted for at least 20% of total SQL parsing time. That's a surprise to me !

This is beyond idiotic. Any company that's about to release this in their production server will want to benchmark the effect of the fix. And some of them will have to provide the results to their customers.

That makes sense. I completely misunderstood the release note. Thanks for the clarification. The insight is very interesting. I always thought there would be 2 separate binary searches...

The query optimizer improvements are pretty cool too. Even though, I don't really understand that one : "The IN-early-out optimization: When doing a look-up on a multi-column index and an IN operator is used on a column other than

For sure, the result is a good news, but it highlight what I believe is a major flaw in the modern court systems : the tax payer and the defender ends up footing the bill for what is essentially abuse of the system and pure incompetency. Is

I'm clear. That didn't prevent the authors from using that term anyway. And in their title, just to make sure not to confuse anyone. EDIT : the author(s) of the press release used the word "upload". That term is nowhere

It’ll become interesting when we can teach the worm before “uploading”it, and the resulting NN already knows how to balance that pole without any further training. As is, The article sounds underwhelming

I think Spectre and the JS PoC are actually the ones applicable to any modern processors (including AMDs, ARMs and probably most other chip vendors). Looks like the mitigations for these will be directly included in the browser. EDIT : I do

As someone who's been told my several people my debugging skills are impressive, I reflected on this a little bit and here what seems to work for me : 1) know your debugging tools. IMO this is imperative, as you're going to set pr

If you don't already have professional help (therapy), seek some. I've experience the hour long crying showers first hand, and I don't wish it to anyone. Don't minimize how you feel, and don't blame/shame yours

When I see anything related to splitting water into hydrogen, I'm worried that we're going to use water for energy on top of using to hydrate people. Still today, over 10% of the world population don't have access to clean wa

"Given that the unemployment rate for college graduates sits at 2.5%, it is fair to say that most native workers displaced by H-1Bs land on their feet." That's completely ignoring the fact that if you have cheaper workers, yo

I personally doubt that. No matter what, the fuel will still cost in the $100k, plus the marginal cost of the vehicle, launch authorization, coordination on the ground and having an emergency team ready to dispatch at a moment's notice

I wish I had the power to turn that into a competition, but I don't think they need me for that :) Jocking aside, I don't think there can only be one. I am comparing BO and SpaceX the same way I'd compare google and apple. In
