Too bad we didn't get the techno-socialism modeled after Allende's Chile that was at the end of the book.

I tried it once. You had to wait like 3 weeks for Overdrive to let you download one of the few books in their collection (mostly kids books and just pop garbage).

Going to libgen is a much better experience.

Great. Now just make an automatic transmission that's not a pile of junk.

This is the reason 90% of their budget goes to comic book franchise movies. I guess it also helps that the simple-formulaic plots translate easy and rarely delve into any social issues that foreign (e.g., PRC) censors would find objectionable.

This is like saying that a spreadsheet with 26 columns and 1000 rows is big data, because it's larger than the budget of a city.

It's really not big until you have to worry about memory mapping parts of it from disk just to view it.

5MB isn't big.

A lot of stupid rules.

The basis of western thought and canonical English literature versus 'You've Got Mail'. Yes there is a difference.

The infamous rucas. ~~

yes. it generally won't have a closed form however.

The answer is yes.

You can do all that from log files.

Solution: null route *.oracle.com.

Now the plots will just have to revolve around subtlety nicking the battery and turning in to a giant bomb.

Not divine.

ok.

It's impossible to 'anonymize' telemetry data. It's meaningless since it can be 'de-anonymized' usually within a few queries. Claiming that it's 'anonymized' is just a marketing word used by tech companies.

Nope. Specht v. Netscape Communications Corp. dealt exactly with this sort of click through 'telemetry'. Doesn't matter if it's in a shrinkwrap license.

Click through EULAs are not legal documents. This has been established.

It's also unlawful under the GDPR.

How is telemetry not a privacy violation?

It's sending back arbitrary data to someone else without explicit authorization. This data can contain anything including information about the running environment, the contents of files on the computer, other running programs.

It doesn't matter that it's Microsoft instead of an Estonian teenager doing it. You own your computer. You explicitly decide what data comes from it. NO EXCEPTIONS.

Someone should make a high end smart phone geared toward audiophiles that has a 1/2" jack and an interface to plug in a tube amp.

I wouldn't know. I disable all custom typefaces.

They don't need a Farday cage. They can remove the SIM.

State and local governments who submitted proposals and who were rejected should charge them with quid pro quo bribery in each jurisdiction.

Ok. Then this will introduce significant truncation errors and it's not a general GEMM. That's like claiming you've made the fastest FEM routine in the world by doing everything in half-precision.

If they're showing something higher than a 'theoretical peak' then it's a fantastic result that must be investigated carefully for any error in data collection.

Also, that doesn't stop them from showing an apples-to-apples comparison against other libraries that provide GEMM. If other libraries are reporting the same 'beyond theoretical peak' then it most certainly is a data collection error.

The threat of divesting Apple from their app store should be a threat hanging over their heads, if they choose to engage in anti-competitive activities.
