And how many micro ops or real world CPU cycles does that translate to?

It's pretty good

# Performance.
#
# Given aes(enc|dec) instructions' latency asymptotic performance for
# non-parallelizable modes such as CBC encrypt is 3.75 cycles per byte
# processed with 128-bit key. And given their throughput asymptotic
# performance for parallelizable modes is 1.25 cycles per byte. Being
# asymptotic limit it's not something you commonly achieve in reality,
# but how close does one get? Below are results collected for
# different modes and block sized. Pairs of numbers are for en-/

# 16-byte 64-byte 256-byte 1-KB 8-KB
# ECB 4.25/4.25 1.38/1.38 1.28/1.28 1.26/1.26 1.26/1.26
# CTR 5.42/5.42 1.92/1.92 1.44/1.44 1.28/1.28 1.26/1.26

Compared to the normal, non AES-NI x86-64 implementation which looks pretty good to me it's about 10x better

It makes sense to hardware accelerate something like AES, after all people have being doing it in FPGAs for ages.

Actually, you can. The Linux CPU scheduler is pluggable by design, and several schedulers are available to choose from in the stock kernel. Con Kolivas was an active kernel developer for many years with a vested interest in improving kernel latency. He was one of the prime motivators behind a redesign of the scheduler to make it more suited for desktop use. And even after he stopped working on the main kernel, he maintained a few of his own out-of-tree patches, including the infamous Brain Fuck Scheduler (BFS). You can read about it here,
http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/...

The main argument between CK and the rest of the kernel team was that CK wanted extremely good latency in the linux kernel, and he wanted to set it up in a way to be configurable, so you could purpose a machine for a specific task (desktop or server) with different priorities. The main kernel team (Linus, Alan Cox, Greg Kroah-Hartman, Ingo Molnar, etc) wanted a more elegant solution. They wanted an intelligent CPU scheduler that could scale well depending on the load and hardware capabilities, with the idea being that a sysadmin should not have to think too much about it. A mainframe has very different hardware, but it also is used for a very different purpose, from a desktop machine, so the kernel should be able to realize that and figure out what it needed to prioritize. There were a few tuning variables exposed, but it was not supposed to require an extensive configuration. Also, they specifically had the developer workstation in mind when they were working on the scheduler. That is, they were considering situations where a user likely wanted both interactivity and throughput performance. The best of both worlds as best they could manage. They went back and forth a few times until CK finally got frustrated and left, because he didn't think it was possible.

So, there is BFS, and it probably still can be used to patch the stock kernel, but CK didn't design it to be pluggable. So if you patch your kernel with it, you will lose the other options, like the Completely Fair Scheduler (CFS). However, this thread on Stack Overflow might be a good resource if you are either interested in writing a new scheduler, or you want to modify BFS to be pluggable.
https://stackoverflow.com/ques...

And, I was Googling a bit and found that CK is apparently working on another scheduler (MuQSS) which he is intending to be the successor to BFS,
http://ck-hack.blogspot.pt/201...

In the end, though, while CFS is not as good as BFS at latency, it strikes a pretty good balance. And GKH has been working on soft realtime patches to the kernel for a number of years that are slowly getting incorporated into the main branch. So Linux is pretty good in general; much better than it was when CK first started his work. Here is an old, but nice, comparison of the two schedulers,

Hilarious! My country's life expectancy is around eighty two or so. Recent hunter-gatherer estimate is around fifty five after reaching the age of fifteen (i.e., discounting child mortality). That's actually around thirty years fewer. Be glad that we're not discussing neolithic populations. Clearly YOU suck at paleodemography. I've never NOT filtered out child mortality, it's a GIVEN that you have to do that, but the massive difference is there anyway.

I got my master's degree with this guy, and I had to take a Haskell course, or seminar, every semester. I was, and still am, pretty terrible at Haskell.

However, what I attempted to learn helped my Python out a lot. Map and filter are two of my favorites, and the other functional paradigms are occasionally useful to me as an actually working, productive, programmer. I'm happy I was exposed to those concepts, since they tend to come in handy. Yes, everything is Turing complete, and you can accomplish the same things without functional programming, or without high level language, or without computers, but that doesn't mean they are all equally useful to solving the problem at hand.

I recommend everyone become familiar with functional concepts in some way, if only to make them more well rounded. I don't advocate writing your next web application in Haskell though...

> You're not a science crackpot on sampling (though apparently on Einstein???),

Calling people who are published on arxiv.org as "crackpots" only makes you look like an idiot. Where are your published papers?

Einstein was human. He made mistakes -- he even admitted to one as the biggest blunder of his life. If you would take off your myopic glasses and realize that criticism != crackpot you might actually learn something.

He spent the rest of his life trying to unify the four fundamental forces and come up with a ToE (Theory of Everything.) Newsflash -- he failed. Einstein's Theory of Relatively, by definition, is incomplete; this is a well known fact. Unsolved Problems in Special and General Relativity also attests to that. It specifically point out 21 currently unsolved problems. Scientists have made zero break throughs in the past 50 years as well. Questioning the fundamentals is the _foundation_ of Science. But keep name calling people who question the assumptions as crackpots. I'm sure you have a replacement theory that explains it all.

Gee, if only there was a List of Unsolved Problems in Science. Oh wait, there is. Are you going to call all THOSE scientists who study these things crackpots as well ??

The original Doom games were noteworthy for having big levels that contained lots and lots of enemies. I haven't played Doom 3, but I've heard that it has much more beautiful 3D graphics, and as a result you would be attacked by only a few monsters at a time (because too many would overwhelm the graphics adapters that were current when that game came out).

My favorite thing in the the original Doom games was getting the monsters to fight each other. If you could get an Imp so hit a Cacodemon with a fireball, for example, the two would get into a fight. Frequently I would lure some monster into the line of fire and as soon as it was hit, it would forget about me and go kill whatever monster hit it. This is more fun to me than just shooting everything. I hope the new game has this.

The specific rules: monster special attacks don't hurt other monsters of the exact same type... for example, Imp fireballs don't hurt Imps. But the zombie soldiers shoot bullets and bullets hurt anything, so you could get soldiers to fight each other. And anytime a monster hit a different kind of monster it would do damage.

P.S. Doom modified as a way to control processses on a system. Kill a process with a shotgun! https://www.cs.unm.edu/~dlchao/flake/doom/chi/chi.html

One side-effect of this is that processes on a system can get into a fight with each other. Two processes enter, one leaves. Not recommended for critical systems.

The voltage spike was enough to cause internal arcs in operating tubes, vaporizing electrode material.

That they were operating is the first critical factor. Vacuum arcs between metallic elements that are not boosted by thermionic emission and are just driven by field emission require gradients on the order of gigavolts per meter, so even for small receiver tubes you'd need a difference of several million volts between the electrodes. With the cathode heated when the tube is operating, this is reduced by an order of magnitude. However, an EMP from a nuclear explosion that would generate something like this in an unconnected tube puts the equipment within the blast zone -- never mind worrying about the EMP. Thus, the second critical factor is the circuits the tubes were parts of, because induction into the wiring they were connected to is what it took to create a huge voltage differential between the electrodes -- which also tells you how to avoid the problem: ultrafast spark gaps, which, at least according to this paper can be as quick as picoseconds.

Once upon a time, a BOFH would manage his system with a pistol. If we KILL'ed a process, we'd loot its shotgun and be even more feared. It was brutal, bloody, and cruel. The way system administration is supposed to be. "root, red in tooth and claw."

Now? Minecraft. And not a good PvP server, either. I'll bet they don't even have TNT or skeleton archers, either. "Creative mode". My 9-year-olds sneer at creative mode. No bloodshed. No mayhem. Nothing to lose.

Pretty soon, it'll be VM management by buying outfits for Hello Kitty in Hello Kitty Container Adventure.

DO NOT WAAAANT!

The rail gun was much more fun than typing out kill -TERM.

WHere I live, in-state tuition is officially $6,664 for a resident. But then on the university's page, it also adds in 8700 for room/board, 1072 for books, and essentially 3800 for 'miscellaneous', because you might just occasionally want to go to a movie or drive a car. Granted, those are 'luxuries'. Still, the university recommends you have $20k/year. Which is $80k for a four year degree. Not $100k, but it is pushing towards it in a 'cheap' state. If you happen to have parents that will let you live at home and are nearby the school, you can do it for a lot cheaper. But not all people have that luxury. http://admissions.unm.edu/cost...

So tuition is not the whole story. Show me a UC website that says you realistically need less than $50k to go to school there....

Yeah, psDoom is so old-school. This is clearly an upgrade. ;-)

In 2009 the top 50% of income-tax payers paid 97.75% of the total tax [ntu.org]. Do you suppose, the bottom 50% could pay much less than 2.25% — and would it help them, even if it could be arranged? So, as suspected, you don't have any substantiation to your claim, that the "top 1%" impoverishes everybody else. Class warfare much?

This is the only interesting statement in your post, 1 fact and a false conclusion. Of course the top 50% paid the majority of the taxes. In 1910, the top 10% paid the majority of the taxes. Some stats: there were 305M in the US in 2009, of which roughly 74M were children and 40M were over 65. So excluding people like Buffet (a top 0.001%er over 65 and an outlier) we'll say there were roughly 190M eligible working people, of which 117M reported wages/salaries which gives you a working population of roughly 61%, just to put employment in proper perspective. Average income was $54,265 for those 117M people, yet the average per capita income was more than $38K as total income was $11,852,715,000,000, or roughly $101K per taxpayer. Yet these numbers are somewhat off, as "taxpayer" can be a single individual or married couple, but the back of napkin calculations jibe with the Dept of Labor of a workforce about 60% employed, so I'll call it a wash.

Historically, we have used a stepped tax system. With the first income tax, the first step only included the top 10%, as the income level was set to that level, so only people earning above that mark paid tax. The overly complex graduated system we have now in simple terms is setup so that people that earn more pay more tax, but has devolved to the point that you pay tax even if you're below the median income (say, if you're single with no kids and no mortgage, ie, no deductions)

All I'm promoting is that the tax system gets reset to a simpler system keyed to inflation, so that people making 125% of the median pay no tax, and people above it do. Remove most, if not all deductions, and be done with it. (This is similar to the "flat tax" proposals that have been floating about) If you're concerned that I'm attempting to shift the tax to others, don't be, I'll fall into the "taxed" group. I'd be happier if people above me on the scale weren't paying less than I do however.

To quote a friend of mine: "I'm happy to pay taxes, it means I'm making money".

China doesnt use a handful of pf rules, they use a comprehensive array of filtering, DPI, and firewalling techniques. They've been known to actively probe VPN services to determine whether they are allowable, implement real-time updated keyword content filtering, and forge RST packets for any "undesirable" content.

They are also incredibly proactive about nullifying workarounds; ask the Tor guys how their efforts with e.g. obfsproxy and obfs2 went. Really good at circumventing the GFW for a year or so until it ended up 100% blocked just like stock OpenVPN.

Either way its difficult to defend the idea that China intentionally did this

No, its not, it fits 100% in with their existing (bad) relationship with google.

when google gladly censors their search results and complies with all local regulations.

Your information is about 5 years out of date. Ever since the Aurora hacks in 2010, Google has ceased all cooperation with the Chinese government on that front, and has ceased filtering on their end. They have in fact on a number of occasions worked to alert users when third party tampering has occurred, which has led to a number of confrontations with the Chinese gov't. Notably, in June of this year, China completely blocked Google prior to the TIanenmen Square anniversary.

Google remains a sterling partner of the chinese leadership in their quiet, tacit business participation in what for all intents and purposes amounts to a capitalist dictatorship with a communist logo.

Except for the part where they are the one major internet company NOT cooperating with them, while Microsoft and Yahoo continue to do so. Hope you dont use Skype over there.

• Hard to comment
• Very easy to write bad code (particularly for beginners)
• Version control is awkward
• Clunky to debug because programs are hard to follow.
• Hard to modify existing code
• Coding becomes an exercise in placing the mouse in just the right places and finding the right little block.
• As a beginner you waste lots of time trivialities instead of actually learning to code.
• Hard to learn from a book or even from reading somebody else's code.
• Documentation is crappy.

Graphical languages are still programming. Syntax errors don't go away, they just manifest themselves differently. I don't think graphical languages really solve any problems, they just create new ones. That's why they haven't caught on.

'It seems odd, with America's unemployment problem, to have a shortage of workers for a job that can pay in excess of $20 per hour.

Actually, the average income in the US is $40000 per year, which is about $20 per hour. So, the job is only paying the national average. That's why it's not attracting people from out-of-state, even though the pay is above-average for the state of Oklahoma. See the statistics at http://bber.unm.edu/econ/us-pci.htm.

The American government spends so much money that even if every single income tax payer was paying 100% of their income in tax, there would still be a deficit. Most of that deficit is military spending.

2010 Federal Spending: $3.46 Trillion
2010 Federal Tax Recipts: $2.16 Trillion
2010 DoD, Social Security, and Medicare/Medicaid spending: ~$700-$800 billion apiece
(Sourced from Wikipedia, so take with the usual Wiki grain of salt.)

2010 US Per Capita Income: ~$40k
2010 US Population: ~300 Million
2010 US Income Tax receipts: $900 Billion
(Sourced from here, here, and here, respectively.

Putting on our big boy hats and doing some math, here are some interesting facts we can get from those statistics. First, defense spending is one of only three major pillars of our deficit, and it's project to expand at a far slower rate than Social Security or Medicare/Medicaid. Second, taxpayers rake in ~$12 Trillion in income but only pay $900 Billion currently, so we could easily run a surplus by raising taxes. Third, people with no knowledge of orders of magnitude should not spew FUD that will further confuse a public that has little knowledge of how much money comes into and goes out of government coffers.

Several of the preceding responses have covered much of what you'll need.

If you've not had any exposure to tensor analysis, I'd recommend a gentle introduction called: A Brief on Tensor Analysis by James Simmonds.

If you're still needing a grounding in vector calculus Div, Grad, Curl and All That. is a good overview of it.

At least one has recommended Wald as a text. I'd recommend Gravitation by Misner, Thorne and Wheeler. Which one you prefer will become apparent pretty quickly.

And definitely, you will need a quite solid grounding in Special Relativity.

For doing the tensor manipulations with a computer program, GRtensorII for Maple was one I've used.

My instructor in it, Dan Finley at UNM has a page for the class he teaches on it at: http://panda.unm.edu/Courses/Finley/p570.html

One warning, Dan is not one to "spare the rod" when it comes to the mathematics. (Which to me, is a good thing.)

It's a worthy goal, but one that will take a lot of determination, work and preparation. Unfortunately, I had to drop out of Finley's class due to my full time job boiling over (we lost two other employees, and I had to cover). It's been 15 years, but someday I still intend to get back to it.

I remember seeing this and thinking "YES!!!!!" http://www.cs.unm.edu/~dlchao/flake/doom/

http://www.cs.unm.edu/~dlchao/flake/doom/chi/chi.html

"As it currently exists, if we were to take 100% of the income from every American today, it would not pay off the national debt. "

False. but hey, I don't really except anyone to understand what the national debt actual is.

OTOH, that line did spare me from reading the rest of your post, since It is probably as accurate.

Which part did you think was false about those numbers?
Federal debt (not to mention state debt) is 14 T
Total personal income in 2010 was 12 T

How about this?. I know it's not a "shovel ready plan", but you need a site and a source of money before you can get one of those. I think it's safe to say GE would be happy to start building one for you tomorrow if you could put up the money.

And before you tell me it's just concept art for a pipe-dream, I'd like to point out that it's based on this reactor that was built in 1965 and operated for 30 years. We are not "a long, long way away from having shovel ready plans for building the transmogrifying breeder reactors". We've had the basic technology for a long time.

It was only a real file browser in the sense that it actually existed, not that anyone would actually use it.

Sort of like Doom is a real process manager.

I'm not an economist, but according to Wolfram Alpha the GDP per capita for China is 3290 USD. Figuring 15 hours a day * $.065 per hour* 6 days a week * 52 weeks in a year = $3042 a year, so about 92% of the GDP per capita.

You're comparing GDP per capita to what a factory worker working overtime earns. You do realize that per capita takes into account all women and children and everyone who doesn't even have a job. US income per capita for 2009 was $39,138, so this would be like making $36,006.96 for working 15 hours a day, 6 days a week.

Actually, the workers are only paid $0.52 an hour after company provided food is taken out of their salary. This means their real wage is $2433.60, which is only 80% of GDP. Which means their US equivalent wage is only $31,205.57, or $6.67/hr.

So basically, working 15 hour days, with unpaid bathroom breaks for 10 min. every 4 hours, forced to buy company food and pay for company rent, for the equivalent to less than minimum wage "doesn't seem that bad?"

Seriously, fuck you. This is slave labor, no two ways about it.

It's the same reason why I think GUIs should not borrow too much from "physical metaphors".

For example something like 10GUI might seem cool ( http://10gui.com/video/ )

But it is SLOW. Sliding windows around takes a lot more time than say "alt-tab". Or even a click on the relevant button in the taskbar.

If I'm trying to get work done and I know exactly what I want, for example a particular application window, I want to be able to get to it ASAP. I don't want to have to slide lots of stuff around. I don't want to have to go through zillions of fancy animations and wobbly windows. And I certainly do not want to walk through multiple rooms and corridors till I finally reach the window. And no I do NOT want to battle monsters ( http://www.cs.unm.edu/~dlchao/flake/doom/chi/chi.html ).

All that may be fine if I'm playing a game (subject to gameplay and "is it actually fun?" constraints).

Seriously, when will we realize that the best User Interface is a 3D environment individuals can navigate as easily as the world around us. Just make a quake, darkforces, or HL mod, pull in dynamic data that any web interface can provide, and have the guns change variables in a fun interactive way. Fine fine, use more recent games or engines, but you get my point?

Agreed - Once you've used a tool like psdoom to terminate a runaway browser process, there's no going back. It's only natural that the killing of processes should be represented as killing in the user interface! I'm just waiting for the VR helmet or at least some head tracking. Using a keyboard in the course of system administration is so... artificial.
