My understanding is that these come from private agreements, not legislation. Are you saying that there are a handful of industries where there is actual legislation?
Huh? Your post makes no sense. CV1 literally means "consumer version 1".

Another annoying aspect of LSD is that it's impossible to say anything bad about LSD without being jumped on by people who have made LSD part of their own identity, the same way being a Democrat is part of their identity. Try saying anything bad about either one, and you're in for a bad time.

It's possible that the silent majority simply feel that spending a bunch of time in an altered LSD state is a crazy thing to do. People claim they are profoundly different after tripping, but if you look at what they do, not what they say, they don't seem much different. They seem like pretty much the same person, if you look at their accomplishments before and after.

That's not to discount the therapeutic properties. If LSD can help someone in pain, whether physical or emotional, then it's a great tool. But that's a very different situation from what most LSD proponents seem to imply: that everyone should do it for no particular reason except curiosity. And curiosity is nice, but we should at least be willing to admit what it is: an interesting experience, the same way taking a vacation to a remote tropical island is an interesting experience. But you'll still be pretty much the same person before and after your vacation, though more relaxed afterwards.
The other thing you can do is close your eyes and put gentle pressure on you eyeballs. You'll start to see moving patterns emerging in the dark.

>Are you proud to be an LSD user in the context of everyday society?

Not really a fair question, given the taboo still surrounding the drug. Imagine asking a homosexual in the 1950's "Are you proud to be gay in the context of everyday society?" Of course the answer is going to be "No." But in certain circles - namely those that don't give in to the notion that such experiences are unspeakable - the answer is surely "Yes."

That said, I agree with zafka that being "proud" to have taken LSD is effectively a category error.
I wonder how much crypto they mined? Probably $1 worth but still worth it for them!
Stupid question: what’s up with trucks in urban areas? I understand the utility of a truck in rural/farm setting but never figured why folks want to lug around that pointless empty half while living in cities. Two of the folks I know who owns trucks have used empty halfs probably twice in a year when bringing home some furniture but that too could have delivered free by the store. Again, as I said, stupid question.
Not OP, but: not per se, no. Only in the pursuit of some specific task which requires them to do that. Just like a citizen can run a red light if they have to rush someone to a hospital.

Or at least I’d hope they can.
The Fry's general store was owned by the father of the founders of Fry's electronics. He sold the market to a big grocery conglomerate and then gave the money to his kids, who used it to found the electronics store because they didn't want to run a supermarket.

However, they liked the idea of a supermarket since they knew how to run one, so they set up Fry's like a market. The first Fry's electronics actually had groceries and even fresh produce. But they cut back on actual food and just started stocking chips and other "grocery items for men".
Since you’re ok with limited routes and impressed by that, Tesla also doesn’t need a driver on limited routes. Doesn’t even need a passenger. I don’t know how you call it driver assistance when there is no human anywhere near the car, inside or out.

Thanks Gyonka. Does my 3 year timeline (comment above) change your recommendation?
I think we can all agree that APUs have come a ways since first coming out. The poster you replied to was more lamenting how the inclusion of a GPU into my CPU didn't create something bigger than the sum of its parts.

What we have is still a CPU and a GPU. Separate. Discrete. The inclusion changed nothing about what kind of software we can write or problems we can solve. Back when APUs were still just a slide in a powerpoint deck, there was a lot of talk about how this could "change everything" because of the radically different type of compute you could do on a GPU.

The closest thing to this is the coin mining craze, but everyone is gravitating towards the fastest hardware for that. And that's not your APU.

Even worse than that, moving a lot of small files in WSL reliably BSODs my work machine due to some sort of interaction with the mandated antivirus on-access scanning, making WSL totally unusable for development on that machine.

I have no proof obviously, but I somehow think that those 3000 new GCE instances have not been registered according to the TOS of Google, most importantly in regard to real name and accountability policies.
Fair point on the question of why it matters. On the question of what should be encouraged, I think "good answers to novel questions" is only one of many possibilities. In my opinion, what should be encouraged is simply "people quickly and easily finding good answers to their questions", and I think copy-pasting (or linking to) the relevant section from documentation serves that goal just fine, and that voting is a good system for indicating what answers are useful, regardless of the form they take.

Travelling to (e.g.) Mars isn't in the realm of fantasy. Maybe you should say:

In the big picture, mutually beneficial cooperation works. That's what civilization is, and why we still have it. What we consider sociopathic is often highly cooperative, in an absolute sense. It's just that our standards have risen so high that that basic level of cooperativeness isn't enough.

Illustrative example: hooligans riding loud motorbikes stopping at red lights.
Why isn't there an Amazon but with local fulfillment? Local merchants can flag that they're selling certain items on said marketplace, but to users they're transparently browsing a single cohesive marketplace a la Amazon.

I think that a fully localized Amazon would keep much of the convenience that customers love, but would remove the capitalist bottleneck in Seattle.
That seems like it would be a trivial thing to do in an early compilation step... why is the workaround necessary?
This looks promising. Are there supports for native file system access, databases (SQLite?), and network access?
3 years here, still working great - though I put in a bigger, 7200rpm HDD a year ago. It hurts on AAA modern games, but I don't play them anyway - indie stuff usually runs flawlessly.

The only thing I use my DVD drive for is movies (but I recently got Netflix), and a recent troubleshooting round on a 1st gen MBA. And I made an install USB stick, so I don't need the drive any more anyway.

This has easily been the longest-lasting computer I've purchased, especially in the laptop realm. I'm thrilled with what it cost me.

I do this with our bins in San Francisco - partly for the compost bin which gets gross compost slime in it and partly because we have a dog and tons of poop bags make it into our trash bin. Typically just tilt them over onto the street, get the hose on a high-pressure nozzle and give them a good rinse. Maybe once per year take a broom and give them a scrub with some lemon Ajax to get the crusties off. I'll do ours and our neighbors in order to have the garage smell a little better.

So is the logo a big deal or not? If it’s not a big deal, that raises the question of why this much time and effort is being spent on it.

Slightly related, but can someone clear up for me (a person who occasionally administers a headless Fedora box but doesn't venture into desktop Linux land) how different WMs and distros work when I want to install a particular piece of software? Does a desktop application have to be specifically written to run in KDE or Gnome or Unity? Or does it just look funny if I try to run a K* application in Gnome?
Man I'm so cynical. As soon as I see "I landed a great job a few months ago," my thought is just wait a few more months. I hope the job stays great for you.
Every state, city and neighborhood has its own routines and rules for daily life: where to go, where not to go, etc. So take your cues from the school and the people you are closest to.

It is a big country—enjoy as much of it as you can. When you do, you will see what I am suggesting. For example, people from the state of Virginia can be just as out of place in Los Angeles as you might be.

In general, Americans are friendly and helpful when asked, but don’t be surprised to see people moving fast, with heads down, and minding their own business.

Productivity, competitiveness and independence are primary drivers in the US culture. You might see this at school, as well. But generally, college kids are having fun.

As adults, I wouldn’t characterize us as fun-loving people. We are pretty serious about everything, including playtime.

I will be curious to see how others might respond...

>Go's CLI tooling literally doesn't provide any way to search for packages at all. You may think it's a requirement, but it's really not!

You're still misunderstanding the level of abstraction I'm emphasizing for what a "package manager" means to many people.

Let's dissect the following command from the Javascript ecosystem:

npm install react

Notice that the end user does not need to know whether React is hosted on GitHub or GitLab or Facebook's own servers. He doesn't even have to do a google search. The npm command just "magically" gets the React library.

Exactly _how_ does npm do that? From _where_ does npm fetch? The _how_ & _where_ is what the majority of my comment is about. All your explanations of Go not working that way does not address that mental model at all.

So you have 2 concepts in a "package manager":

(1) npm, the client command line tool

(2) the canonical default repo that npm tool points to -- and it's a virtuous cycle of easy use and trust because almost everybody publishes to it. It has grabbed mindshare.

You keep saying Go doesn't need (2) but I'm saying that doesn't change the fact that many mentally include (2) of what a comprehensive package manager _is_.

And is (2) really that unreasonable? Consider the Go documentation example of "adding a dependency" from https://blog.golang.org/using-go-modules#TOC_3 -- it has this example output:

go: finding rsc.io/quote v1.5.2
go: downloading rsc.io/quote v1.5.2

... exactly _where_ is it downloading the "rsc.io/quote" package if the user does not manually specify Github/Gitlab/PrivateEnterpriseRepo ?
This is a fascinating claim (and video), but I can't find a ton of corroborating evidence for it: searches for "digital camera cosmic rays" bring up (1) considerations for cameras in space (much higher background radiation levels than a commercial flight), and (2) consumer photography forums where people are discussing that 2011 talk. Some of the latter seem to think that Kodak has/had a vested interest in spreading fear around digital photography, since their analog division was imploding at the time.

I think once you get used to a tiling window manager, like force yourself to use it for over a couple weeks, it's very difficult to go back. Somewhat similar to vim.

Personally, I have 2-3 external 32" 4k monitors and I want to maximize the real estate that's used, tiling wm (specifically i3 in this case) makes it very easy to move windows around, to switch between different screens, to move screens between different monitors quickly. Dragging a mouse across that relatively high screen real estate is a huge pita without i3.

I'm sorta blown away at the complexity and overhead of making a native call in Java. Looks like this was one if the areas Microsoft was improving in Java, with J/Direct? In comparison, calling native code from the CLR is a one-line affair. Even two-way; you just pass a delegate and the runtime creates a thunk on the fly.
Now gangs are bigger and their members wear badges. Sort of like the ending of A Clockwork Orange...
> The tools for updating security fixes should be applicable for the applications just as easily as the libraries...

I don't think anybody would disagree, but you can't dismiss out-of-hand this required effort. The point is there are pros and cons. Its arguable that one really ought to have a build-server to mitigate the effect/work. For an OS/distribution, this would be a repository of binaries that are maintained, and you could do an (eg) apt-get update and have the proper software fixed (for your "enterprise" or similar software, a similar in-house mechanism) -- if everything is static, the act of replacing the binaries on the end-machine ought to be relatively simple for binary replacement, with the effort for library maintenance moved to maintaining an "out of band" record of what libs ea. app is using, so that when you have a flaw in libxyz that client-a, client-b, and client-c are using, you _know_ you need to update the source for client-[a-c] one way or another -- it boils down to a case of responsibility -- are you going to build safeguards into the link/run mechanism (dynamic libs) and have it adopt a certain amount of responsibility or move the cost upfront to build/maintenance and manage the responsibility yourself (with some other appropriate tooling)...

Envy is a form of flattery, when I am envious of someone I tell them so! It seems to get it off my chest. Everyone I've ever said it to takes it as a compliment.
Excuse me I may not know all the inner workings and skills of a developer. I respect the hard work and hours coding that they do. However, I have discovered that a lot of them are rouge. They have access to SDK’s, data bases and programs all free of charge.Hidden alone working on different programs for big companies. I have caught one and did not just wipe my machine. I believe I deserve an explanation for my computers being breached and hacking all my imac’s, ipad and iphones. And they work remotely. I have documented proof of the new technologies the public is not aware of. I am responsible enough not to act like a nut blabbing like a paranoid freak. Once I expose the big companies that are being used as well, it will be up to them to find him. It is not a russian, it is not North Korea. Wake up! The computer was invented here and the ones that are masters are baby bombers here in America. Steve jobs and Bill Gates age.There is no protocal for when you catch a programmer remote managing your phone or computer.Or when you find them accessing audio and video.. oooppps. I will not stop my resolve until either some convictions happen or some laws but in place. There are more ethical developers than these animals. And I respect them very much. BUt to screw with my phone bill, phone calls, computer , and even managed to damage my credit report. So on a personal note I am on a mission. Also the ideal of someone discovering what I have and go through what I have been. I cant just walk away. One part of me says to leave it alone. But that is not an option now. Its too late. I have lost my job and now they are still playing games like sick ego trip sore looser rejects corporate drop outs.May be Guido can get on his computer and spank all those fools and have the python draw them all in to face the music like Men and not cowards. Secretive Cowards of the night.

Viral marketing for The Interview, nothing more
Keep in mind that I did not say anything like 'terrible' or 'worst ever'. I said 'iffy'. I also obviously know where to find the state, because I mentioned it in my original comment.

In return I got that it was 'exceptionally clear' (which it clearly isn't, given there's a few people in this thread that missed it); that UI doesn't matter for developers; a possible insinuation that I don't know the kind of tools devs use; and a follow-up comment that tells me I need to know my tools but then proceeds to completely ignore the use-case it explicitly quoted when telling me what I should do. I don't know how that second one can be seen as anything but patronising.

Continuing on with the theme, your point still doesn't answer any of the issues I had in my downmodded comment regarding what is 'exceptionally clear'. Can you tell at a glance from a meter away? My point isn't about the existence of a field, but its presentation.

If you don't think the UI is iffy, that's fine, we disagree. But let's not make up nonsense about things like devs not benefiting from good UI or offering solutions that don't match the quoted use-case.

There are a bunch of demographic reasons why we should expect America's dominance to end. If all citizens were equally productive, we'd expect the U.S. to be no more than 5% of the global economy, and China and India to be roughly 4x as large. Plus the population pyramid in the U.S. is about to invert, with more dependent seniors than productive wage-earners.

Corporate profits, economic data, geopolitical stability can all flip quite quickly (just look at Germany in 1914, per grandparent poster) - demographics is the one factor that is relatively stable.
My dude, there aren’t any “extra knobs” you can just turn and expect to maintain the security and integrity of a cryptographic solution. This isn’t some Node/React website we’re talking about. If you move one assembly opcode out of place you may end up disclosing your private key via side-channel attack — and that’s a best case outcome. The fact you’re so cavalier about this tells me you have no idea what you’re talking about. Ask an infosec person, then report back lol

This has nothing; and I do mean nothing to do with your Rubik’s cube analogy. One small tweak and the whole thing may be utterly worthless. It’s like if you were tweaking the starting position of the Rubik’s cube with a nuclear warhead.

Do you mean the problem gave him a formula and asked him to describe the graph? There's no educational value in using a calculator to generate that graph compared to the graph just being printed alongside the formula. You don't learn by being given the answers before you try to do it yourself. Instead, you need to come up with an answer yourself then check if it's right. The calculator could be useful for checking, but only if the student doesn't use it while they're doing it themselves, otherwise it's no better than copying answers out of the answer book.

The value I can imagine with generating graphs on a calculator would be trying a large number of graphs that are too numerous to print in the text book or to organize in some big table of graphs. That's also the value of a scientific calculator which is faster than looking up trig functions in tables, or a basic calculator that's faster than doing arithmetic by hand.
