Access optimization or interleaving at a lower level than linearly mapping DIMMs and channels. x86 cache lane size is 64 bytes, so it must be a multiple. Probably 64*2^n bytes.

Turn this into linkedin-speak, how you inevitably are promoted to power and a leadership position. This is not a tactic, it is a long-term strategy. #softskills #success

I've had the same question above: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47706122

Haha. The wording's equal too!


> about democratic societies

You imply representative democracy, where political parties are forced to be formed not to solve issues, but to win a popular vote. To win the vote, you have to dilute your policy enough to encompass the masses by providing many common denominators. There, consensus is impossible by design, we no longer live in a Greek metropolis, where the dimensionality of problems is low. Todays societies are complex and have many dimensions, yet the representative democracies group all of the similar and dissimilar issues under 2-3-4-5 different parties.

I see exactly two (one) solutions:

- people go beyond party boundaries and cooperate on issues they feel important (doesn't work, it's already possible on paper, but in the best case this ability is traded for negotiational power)

- direct voting on issues, parties only serve a directional and educational role


> Macron tried to do pension reform > they're your countries, but i do not think it's your leaders letting you down.

What fanfic am I reading here? The protests had no impact on the course of the pension reform.


they did not manage to stop the law. what i am saying is that the leaders were trying to pass a necessary law and the population was against it, so you can't pass off blame for the dysfunction on them

I see. Agreed.

> 65000 USD in donations > enough for infrastructure for the next 90 days

20k per month in infrastructure. Excuse me, what?


They're taking about paying for full time developers.

Where am I reading this wrongly?

> approximately $65,000 in donations. This is enough to maintain critical Session infrastructure for the next 90 days. We are extremely grateful for the support Session has received from the community, but unfortunately this is not sufficient to retain full-time developers. As a result, all paid staff and developers will have their final working day on April 9, 2026. After this date, some team members will continue on a primarily volunteer basis to help maintain Session until July 8, 2026.


This forewarning is underestimated. Russia had begun it's path to Internet censorship through "think of the children" and to fight piracy. Started off as simple DNS and IP blocks, mandatory for all B2C ISPs. Now every egress international connection is being analyzed by DPI, VPNs, SSH are broken: the traffic inspection and interception (TCP RST among other things) has to be circumvented. Major messenger apps are blocked: WhatsApp, Telegram (intermittent connectivity), Viber etc. to force people to use the unencrypted local app (an FB Messenger equivalent, called "Max" by VK).

There are now plans to expand the traffic analysis systems' aggregate bandwidth to nearly 1 petabits/s (sic) by 2030 with the expected total budget of 59B Roubles (470M USD).


I remember people complaining about how some can't write out a full "thanks" instead of "thx"


You are right, the article is about:

> She said at the point Homeland Security ended her abuse she had been "praying actively for it to end".

You can provide your plausible suggestions as to what the family relationship looked like that the girl could neither ask her own mother for help nor was her father there for her.


My heart breaks for parents who learn that their children found themselves unable to confide in them about rape.


I doubt the mother didn't know.


From Maternal Perceptions Of And Responses To Child Sexual Abuse https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4845772/ :

> But it was estimated that from 30% to even 80% of victims do not purposefully disclose their misuse before adulthood.

[...]

> Arata found an inverse relationship between the disclosure and severity of abuse. Subjects reporting contact sexual abuse were significantly less likely to disclose it than those reporting non-contact sexual abuse.

> The duration of sexual abuse has a significant impact on its disclosure – the longer children are abused, the more hesitant they may be to disclose their abuse.


Follow-up questions: Do you test manually? Why? Do you debug manually? Why?

You wanted examples: https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/tree/master/test/jdk/java/uti...


I do test manually in salesforce. Mainly its because you do not control everything and I find the best test is to log in as the user and go through the screens as they do. I built up some selenium scripts to do testing.

In old days, for the kinds of things I had to work on, I would test manually. Usually it is a piece of code that acts as glue to transform multiple data sources in different formats into a database to be used by another piece of code.

Or a aws lambda that had to ingest a json and make a determination about what to do, send an email, change a flag, that sort of thing.

Not saying mock testing is bad. Just seems like overkill for the kinds of things I worked on.
