If you only look at the US (which a US court should) - it's really between Chrome and Safari Mobile, and it's a pretty even split to be honest - a bit in the favor of safari for mobile traffic, which is telling.
But the bigger issue is that they have undue influence in technical decisions to the detriment of consumers because they have a vertically integrated business.
From what I understood, the radar systems were incompatible and that's why despite it being on the table it wasn't sold to the Ukrainians. That and the requirement to gather accurate surveys of the areas to be protected.
Most AIs are trained on older poster art like this - they're well labelled, have consistent style, and because they're older there are likely to be a bunch of duplicates in the training set.
None built in from what I recall. That was from back in 2011, so it's possible things changed since.
Reading through, it looks like retries do exist, but remember that duplicate packets are treated as a window reset, so it's possible that transmission succeeded but the ack was lost.
I remember the project demos from the course though - one team implemented some form of fast retry on two laptops and had one guy walk out and away. With regular wifi he didn't even make it to the end of the hall before the video dropped out. With their custom stack he made it out of the building before it went.
I'll need to dig through to find the name of what they did.
Small strikes against any IRGC personnel stationed outside Iran - they're fair game and on the table. We're already seeing this with the strikes on Damascus and throughout Lebanon.
Also - based on the saber rattling and talking heads, it sounds like there are likely to be three potential targets: the dams, which would cause massive domestic economic damage to Iran; the oil facilities, which would cause massive economic damage to the Iranian regime; finally, known nuclear sites, which are in line with Israeli rhetoric about preventing Iranian nuclear ambitions.
I think cooler heads will prevail and the dams won't be targeted, and without a regional coalition committed to a ground invasion with a goal of regime change, attacking the nuclear facilities won't have the strategic impact that's desired. Which leaves the oil refineries - there's a natural bottleneck for Iranian oil production/export so there's a short list of physical areas that need to be attacked for it to be effective.
Thinking on it further, IRGC headquarters should also be on the table. I don't think it's likely, but if it succeeds (and it's likely to succeed - especially with direct US support) then it's a huge win. But even if it does succeed I don't see it leading to real regime change in Iran, so without that strategic impact it's far less likely.
To be fair, because of window size management it only takes 1% packet loss to cause a catastrophic drop in speed.
Packet loss in TCP is only ever handled as a signal of extreme network congestion. It was never intended to go over a lossy link like wifi.
Anything using Blind as a "verified industry source" is going to be skewed to the type of person who uses Blind. Beyond that, it's low sample size, and there are suspiciously round fractions for some of the larger companies. Worse, because Blind is blind - this doesn't represent current employees, but merely people who worked at some point in the past at those companies.
Not saying it's not good - just saying not to get overly excited over a badly done survey
Typical intercept opinion piece - one sided with self-contradictory citations. For example - claiming that the only complaint was based on an Instagram story that way posted after the professor was informed of the complaint. It's like they started from the headline and just wrote whatever supported that conclusion.
I honestly wish I hadn't wasted my time reading this
Not just Nasrallah - basically everyone in the top two or three layers of Hezbollah's military leadership have all been killed in the last few weeks.
The actual auction site: https://360assetadvisors.com/events/fssmh/
Looks like they're only breaking it down into three parts: Infowars the media company, Infowars the supplement store, and a pile of domain names. Production equipment might get sold as part of a separate auction.
I'm not loving the NDA though - open auctions should get more value.

Much as everyone is laughing at this, there are several European countries that recently purchased Israeli missile defense systems. This could potentially be Russia attempting to show them that it won't work (or probe for weaknesses - depends how far along they are in their anti-anti-missile program).
Either way, it does put Russia on the spot as knowingly providing weapons that will likely be used against Israel. Which hopefully will mean greater support of Ukraine by Israel, who have up until now been avoiding that to maintain security ties with Russia in order to counter Iranian operations in Syria.
That sounds like a great way to write a grant request for travel money to Malta. This man isn't insane - he's a genius.
Horrible, obviously wrong science, but I at least applaud the semi-transparent attempt to get most-expenses paid for vacation to Malta.
That makes a lot of sense - I wonder if they also do the SIGSEGV trick like HotSpot to know when they need to JIT the next chunk of instructions
But does it run Doom? Using CMOV instructions only?
I thought FAT binaries don't work like that - they included multiple instruction sets with a header pointing to the sections (68k, PPC, and x86)
Rosetta to the best of my understanding did something similar - but relied on some custom microcode support that isn't rooted in ARM instructions. Do you have a link that explains a bit more in depth on how they did that?
From what I've understood of this - it's transpiling the x86 code to ARM on the fly. I honestly would have thought it wasn't possible but hearing that they're doing it - it will be a monumental effort, but very feasible. The best part is that once they've gotten CRT and cdecl instructions working - actual application support won't be far behind. The biggest challenge will likely be inserting memory barriers correctly - a spinlock implemented in x86 assembly is highly unlikely to work correctly without a lot of effort to recognize and transpile that specific structure as a whole.
Some rockets landed near the city of Haifa, as Israel and Hezbollah appeared to be spiraling toward all-out war following months of escalating tensions.
> Hezbollah’s deputy leader Naim Kassem said Sunday that his group is now in an open-ended battle with Israel and he threatened more displacement for people in Israel’s north.
Tens of thousands of grieving and angry Israelis surged into the streets as they demanded that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reach a cease-fire with Hamas.
> The family of Israeli-American hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin announced the young man’s death early Sunday, ending a relentless campaign by his parents to rescue him that included meetings with world leaders and an address to the Democratic convention last month. > > Goldberg-Polin, 23, was seized by militants at a music festival in southern Israel on Oct. 7. The native of Berkeley, California, lost part of his left arm to a grenade in the attack. In April, a Hamas-issued video showed him, his left hand missing and clearly speaking under duress, sparking new protests in Israel urging the government to do more to secure his and others’ freedom.
> 103 of the 251 hostages abducted by Hamas on October 7 remain in Gaza, including the bodies of 33 confirmed dead by the IDF.
> Hamas is also holding two Israeli civilians who entered the Strip in 2014 and 2015, as well as the bodies of two IDF soldiers who were killed in 2014.
The game was first suspended due to weather on June 26th, and Danny Jansen was traded back in July. The game resumed on August 26th - with him now playing for the other team.
The Israeli military said that Qaid Farhan Alkadi, 52, was rescued “in a complex operation in the southern Gaza Strip.”
> The 52-year-old is from Israel’s Arab Bedouin minority and was working as a guard at a packing factory in Kibbutz Magen, one of several farming communities that were attacked on Oct. 7.
The strikes threaten to trigger a broader regionwide war that could torpedo efforts to forge a cease-fire in Gaza.
Hezbollah has launched 320 rockets at Israel in the last two hours, alongside at least dozens of drones, but no exact number on the drones. Those numbers are based on a single source, so please take the number with a grain of salt - this source is generally correct, but it is a single source publishing those numbers.
2 injured so far, and extensive damage to civilian homes and infrastructure.

At least 11 people have been injured after projectiles were reportedly fired from Lebanon into Majdal Shams, Golan Heights, on Saturday, according to Israel.
From the photos on twitter, it looks like it hit the only soccer field in town, landing between the field and the playground next to it. Hezbollah first claimed the attack, but now that there are 10 kids dead, and another several dozen kids injured they've backpedaled on it.
UPDATE: 10 dead, 6 in critical, 3 moderate, 4 light, and several dozen unadmitted injured people
Yemen’s Houthi rebels have blamed Israel after a series of strikes hit
> “A short while ago, IDF fighter jets struck military targets of the Houthi terrorist regime in the area of the Al Hudaydah (Hodeidah) Port in Yemen in response to the hundreds of attacks carried out against the state of Israel in recent months,” the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) said in a statement.
> The strikes on Hodeidah came a day after a drone attack in Tel Aviv killed one man and injured at least 10 others.
It was not immediately clear how the strike evaded Israel’s air defenses or how Israel might respond.
> injuring at least 10 people and leaving one dead
> Yemen’s Houthis have repeatedly launched drones and missiles toward Israel throughout the nine-month-long war, in sympathy with Hamas. But until Friday, all were intercepted by either Israel or Western allies with forces stationed in the region.
AP for what ever reason have decided that noone has claimed responsibility, yet include several paragraphs about the Houthis.
> The military spokesman of Yemen's Houthi militants, which like Hezbollah are backed by Iran, said on the X social media website that the group would reveal details about a military operation that targeted Tel Aviv.
Israel says it has rescued four hostages who were kidnapped in a Hamas-led attack on Oct. 7. The army said it rescued Noa Argamani, 25, Almog Meir Jan 21, Andrey Kozlov 27, and Shlomi Ziv (40), in a complex special daytime operation in Nuseirat.

> Iran already has enough uranium enriched to up to 60%, if enriched further, to make three nuclear bombs, according to the International Atomic Energy Agency's theoretical definition, and more at lower enrichment levels. Iran denies seeking nuclear weapons. > > Iran is enriching to up to 60%, close to the roughly 90% that is weapons grade, at its Pilot Fuel Enrichment Plant (PFEP) in its sprawling Natanz complex and at its Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant (FFEP), which is dug into a mountain. > > "The Agency confirms that, since the end of November 2023, the rate at which Iran has been producing uranium enriched up to 60% U-235 at these two facilities combined has increased to approximately 9 kg per month," the report to member states said.
Critical mass for [U-235 is 56kg][wiki-u235], and fuel grade Uranium is between 3-5%.
There are no legitimate non-weapons applications of [Uranium enriched][wiki-enriched] above 20%.

As a result, algorithms based on dancing links have become the method of choice for exploring the set of solutions to a huge variety of combinatorial problems. > > The dancing cells idea, similarly, is a simple modification of a 30-year-old method (sparse-set representation), and it provides efficient support for that same wide class of applications. Indeed, programs based on dancing cells often turn out to be significantly faster than the analogous programs based on dancing links. And again, there is exquisite choreography!
