But typescript fake sense of security does cut it.


Does this board allow for cloud-to-device communication as well? I can only find this line on the product page which idicates that the answer is no: "The Notecard is a device-to-cloud data pump"


Isn't insurance also paying for other people's health care?


That's what I find most wild about this argument. Not only is insurance paying for other people's healthcare, you're also paying to enrich a bunch of shareholders.


Profits in the healthcare industry account for a single digit percentage of costs. Health insurers made $35 billion in profits in 2019: https://www.fiercehealthcare.com/payer/big-name-payers-earne.... Americans spent $3.8 trillion on healthcare that year. Okay, get rid of insurer profits. Your costs have gone down less than 1%.


With single payer healthcare, that money goes to the government, which is bad.

In the current US system, that money goes to private companies, which is good.

Don't bother questioning this because it's axiomatic. It has ceased to be merely political theory; it's now core to many people's identity. Any threat to that status quo is a personal, existential threat.


I've had this exact argument with someone! Saying that you do know that by paying for private insurance you are paying for other people's treatments, right?? And they said that yeah, but at least they are choosing to pay, instead of being "robbed" through taxes and being forced to pay for other people's treatment.


Commits I pushed were not showing up on my pull-request in the UI, was wondering what was going on. This explains it.


How does data synhchronization and conflict resolution work in CondensationDB? I expected to see something about OT or CRDT since it says it can be used for building collaborative applications such as Google docs (something like Docs is not possible without OT or CRDT).


Exactly, look my reply to Fiahil a bit below.


And people got around the patent by using the marching tetrahedra algorithm, which uses tetrahedrons instead of cubes.


What templating library do you use that provides components? And no, partials are not a substitution.


You can do server-side JSX I believe. Almost all front-end frameworks (eg Vue, Svelte, Riot) support SSR but you have to use JS on the server. Why PHP/Python haven't caught on and reworked their template syntax to look like nestable tag components with props is beyond me. Maybe an idea for a new open-source lib, JSX for PHP?


Why aren't partials a substitution in the context of Tailwind? The only goal is to keep classes DRY.


Stencil to build WebComponents ?


>unlike Rowhammer, RAMBleed does not require persistent bit flips, and is thus effective against ECC memory commonly used by server computers.

Seems like mitigations for Rowhammer is not enough for RAMBleed.


SEV is a completely different thing than ECC. It encrypts the memory. RAMBleed reads raw physical bits which are encrypted and thus useless when SEV is enabled.

The paper even specifically says that SEV and other similar technologies protect against this.


ECC isn't effective mitigation against Rowhammer either.

https://www.vusec.net/projects/eccploit/

tl;dr ECC logic can't cope with 'single' errors involving > 2 bits.


It has to cause a huge amount of single-bit errors to find a spot suitable for a three-bit error.

If these errors are actually treated as errors, then chips will be disabled or processes will get blacklisted long before they can be used to exploit.

So this is really "ECC is often configured wrong", not "ECC isn't effective".


>A couple of years ago, when the dart team failed at getting their runtime embedded into the browsers, they started searching for a problem to solve.

I thought that flutter was started outside of Google.


Dart is based on js and flutter is based on react. Going from js+react to dart+flutter will not be that difficult. Learn both.
