Infiniband and coherent fabric.


Also big notice that it is unmaintained


And that the corporations using their work should donate if they actually want it maintained.


Donating is for individuals. If a corporation wants something done, they can hire or contract someone to do that thing.


Getting small details right is something everyone thinks is obvious. But how to achieve it without becoming mired in processes and keeping work going is a skill that is very difficult to cultivate and a very difficult problem to solve. Requiring a lot of clever people skills. Warms my heart to hear stuff like this.


720p using widevine. I play it. It works. Even if I disable DRM in my main browser. And only isolate it to my Netflix account.


You can get 1080p on Linux with Opera https://help.netflix.com/en/node/30081


Weird, why just on opera? It uses the same engine (chromium) as many other browsers.


I'm guessing because of a higher widevine certification level or a server-side policy?

You can also spoof Opera's user agent and get 1080p on FF so guessing it's a server-side thing; since Linux has L3 widevine certification because no kernel level TEE


I have no issues on Firefox FWIW. I haven't needed to spoof the user agent, though this is something I needed to back in the day when they literally blocked FF's user agent.


Is that through a dedicated Netflix profile or is there a way to enable DRM per site?


The real test would be to see how much of generated code is similar to the old code. Because then it is still a copyright. Just becsuse you drew mickey mouse from memory doesnt above you if it looks close enough to original hickey mouse.

I have looked at the project earlier today there is effectively no resemblance other than the public API.


That’s I believe woefully inadequate. There are some levels of code similarity:

Level 0: the code is just copied

Level 1: the code only has white space altered so the AST is the same

Level 2: the code has minor refactoring such as changing variables names and function names (in a compiled language the object code would be highly similar; and this can easily be detected by tools like https://github.com/jplag/JPlag)

Level 3: the code has had significant refactoring such as moving functionality around, manually extracting code to new functions and manually inlining functions

Level 4: the code does the same conceptual steps as the old code but with different internal architecture

At least in the United States you have to reach Level 4 because only concepts are not copyrightable. And I believe chardet has indeed reached level 4 in this rewrite.


Huge number of people use DB for regional transport for commute. They get affected by 10 mins delay since connections are missed


The free choice of train does take this into account. You just need a (single!) ticket that, overall, will expectedly suffer from a delay long enough.


As someone who is in a group who regularly trashes DB at will, no one blames the line employees, but definitely blame people in upper levels of management


Betting on local circle is okay since balance of power is generally okay


The author of the blog post has missed the point that Robbie Williams is trying to make in the movie. Its not about math. Math part of the movie is irrelevant. Also its not about someone hiding a talent and getting found, that's a prop too.

Its actually about a person who has been abused all his life finally allowing himself to love himself and allowing others to love him.


It's not about trauma.

It's apples. "How do you like them apples" That's the whole movie.

Will likes apples. Sean likes apples. That connection is the whole movie. Two guys who finally found someone else who gets it, who really gets apples. I cried.


Passkeys IMO will only work with dedicated U2F/FIFO keys like Yubikeys.


Beware that Passkey storage is limited though and I don't think you can reuse one for multiple sites. My Yubikey 5 NFC stores up to 32 and you should have some redundancy if you ever lose it. You also can't export them. I only use passkeys (in Bitwarden) for things I don't care about.


As someone who's looking into possibly getting a YubiKey 5 NFC actually, I would like to ask: if you can't export the entries, if you make a backup of the YubiKey (perhaps with the magic of buying two of them), then how would one ensure redundancy?
