Without actually looking at the docs, I would guess these map directly to cpu intrisics that can be used to guide the cpu branch prediction algorithms.

I salute you for having the humbleness to see it. There is horrific pain and suffering out there, one has only to hang out a bit with people outside the tech bubble to see it. Talk to your mechanic, the waiter, the landscape guy, the aging

We never had it and we have never been this unhappy. Read "Coming apart". It focuses on whites, but the lessons there apply to any demographic. The economy has come to value one thing above all others: intellectual aptitude. Intel

Wait, so you think white men are not killing themselves out of despair? Or maybe that if they are they are pussies unable to see how privileged they are even in their despair? Or maybe that they have reasons to despair, but that every singl

That is a brilliant synthesis of the crux of the issue. Our community is powerful and full of their own virtue while simultaneously largely disconnected from issues they so protest about. No actual skin in the game, so much power, so much c

I was assuming that this was a solved problem, given how prevalent drone warfare is now.

Would it be a lot simpler to have a remote pilot access the controls? Why go through all this ?

OK, that is a much more defensible thing to say. What do you think is a more efficient form of exercise then?

Bullshit. There isn't anything fake about it. You will get stronger, faster, and have far better cardio. But yes, you will likely also get injured.

Don't forget the file system and how locking by a rogue program can stop your build (and your workflow) until you figure out which program has a handle to the file you want to rebuild. The lack of scriptability of most tools. The perpe

I use a XPS 13 as well, KUbuntu with i3 as the window manager. Works great and the newest XPS I believe fixed the camera placement.

Yes, have you? And more importantly do you read the news? If so then perhaps we have different ideas of what authoritarian means.

It is sad indeed, that we lost the ability to discuss difficult issues. But it is true nonetheless, it is impossible to discuss politics unless we all pretend to be on the same page, and yes, in tech for the most part that is the left page.

by zarkov99 7y ago
Because tech culture has skewed so insanely towards the authoritarian left that any challenge to the orthodoxy your post suggests is immediately weaponized. There is simply no way to honestly discuss the points you bring up without putting

Exactly.

One could also argue a policy of always forget/always forgive creates its own set of moral hazards by reducing the deterrence against bad behaviours.

Nobody "deserves" anything. The market is not just for products.

I don't get why people who have a choice keep taking this abuse. Stockholm Syndrome perhaps? I switched from Windows to Linux about 6 years ago and my computing experience went from having to deal with soul crushing bullshit every day,

Like it or not, different racial groups have significantly differential SAT mean scores. And the US has a growing number of minorities that do not do well on said tests.

It changes. When you don't understand the problem, yes, simplicity is your best bet. Keep the code clean, clear, because you are going to have to change it a lot. As the understanding of the problem increases, and this does not always

Yes, and that is what one would expect when most people are white in the first place.

If a mutation occurred in an individual such that it would not age, while everything else remained the same, that individual would have more reproductive opportunities and so would its offspring, but there would still be differential succes

why white and dude? aren't there other kinds of rich people? and wouldn't they also pay?

What an hilariously honest comment. Have an upvote.

I would not say more evolved, if by evolved one means complex. Plants actually have more complex genomes than humans because they had to develop defense mechanisms that work even if they cannot move away from the threat . I would say human

I am sorry, I cannot help there, I would love a resource like that as well. Please post if you ever find something that fits that bill.

Doesn't Khan academy work for you? It's the best thing I have found for my kids.

Which school? Do you think the inner city kid goes to school with the Palo Alto kid? The Appalachian kid? The son of illegal alliens? We live in bubbles and we wonder why we can't make sense of each others realities.

You do not think a truly random selection process could be implemented with integrity?

How widespread were those sort of shenanigans back when the draft was on, do you know?
