> The MSVC linker is apparently much more lax in this regard.

No, you are incorrect. The function in question was tagged as inline. Having multiple instances of it is legal. If a Unix linker gave an error on multiple copies of an inline function then that would be a serious bug that would prevent them from linking any non-trivial C++ program.

For inline functions it is only an ODR violation if the two instances are different in an ODR relevant way. The language spec doesn't discuss compiler switches but it is logically clear that /arch:AVX versus not is an ODR violation, whereas /O1 versus /O2 is not. So therefore, even having two different instances of a non-inlined inline function is not necessarily illegal, and must be accepted by a conforming linker.

> Use inline without explicit extern.

I'm not sure why you think that this is a solution. An explicit 'extern' is not needed when defining an inline function. If it is not inlined then the compiler generates a copy that can be referenced. I have worked with gcc, clang, and VC++ and I have never had to explicitly mark an inline function as extern.

You are correct that static inline solves the problem, although I think that this is an ugly solution. And, it is a standard library solution, rather than a toolchain solution, so it doesn't automatically help developers who write their own inline functions.

The best suggestion I heard (on twitter) was name mangling (for non-inlined inline functions) that added an architecture suffix, thus making accidentally calling the wrong architecture function impossible. Much cleaner and more efficient than static inline.

The reason why you notice the difference is because of the low DPI for the screen size on your Z35. Windows fonts render badly on those screens at small point sizes. If your same screen was, say, 4K and you were running with text scaling, the fonts would look -way- better.
Okay Ed. I'll take what you said, with no citations, under consideration. As opposed to all of the citations with data above.
Nuance is impossible on twitter, so I afford them some lack of brevity in that medium. But beyond that I haven't noticed them editorialize. They release the docs and people can look at them to come to their own conclusions.

Can you show me any examples where they "... continually misrepresented, lied, and obfuscated the truth."
Out of curiousity, have there been any other forks that have focused on editing the content? I mean, I know there's a bajillion wikipedia mirrors that are just trying to get page views for cheap, but have there been any other forks that are actually trying to bootstrap from Wikipedia and make changes to the underlying content?

As I sometimes mention, informally studying the effects of code structure on community creation is a bit of a long-running hobby of mine, and I'd be intrigued to see any other extant examples of a wikipedia fork.

I am a Surface convert after Apple discontinued OS support and updates for my still powerful, healthy, relatively new Macbook.

Surface is much more flexible and provides a greater degree of customization. It is the perfect hybrid between and tablet and a laptop device. I'm just as comfortable using it as a consumption device on the couch as I am using it as a production device on a desk.

It really feels like Apple has become more and more hostile to the "production" crowd as a means of catering to the consumption crowd. I love their hardware but the company and it's attitude towards customers can take a hike.

The Anatomy of Determination
You are correct. It's not cheap to have 24 hour breaking news coverage globally. They did a great job on weeding out hoaxes too, it was a pretty remarkable service.
For my part, I just can't work on a smaller screen. I certainly get what you mean regarding getting away with smaller screens with a higher quality and/or higher resolution screen - I'll never go back to less than full HD for my phones, for example, - but the distance of my laptop screen is largely dictated by the attachment to the keyboard (if someone offers a hinged display that can be lifted up closer to the face, perhaps) and I've found not being forced to lean in towards the screen while working is essential to my physical comfort, but I want to be able to largely fill my field of view.

My current laptop "only" has a full hd screen, but it was well over half the cost of my not-at-all-cheap custom build laptop when I bought it, and I expect to spend a similar proportion of the cost of my next laptop on an above average screen (edit: which will mean at a "4K" 17" screen, most likely)

I'm all for a single computing device, but not a single screen size. I don't think we'll ever settle on a single screen-type until/unless we have good enough head mountable screen replacements.
Yay! My favorite new feature is "vibrancy" using the modern OS X API for that. Terminal.app still uses Quartz filters for the blur effect, which while more flexible offers way slower performance whenever there's something animated on the background, like a video playing.
I've been saying this about Apple for years. It's amazing how the tables have turned.
Yes, it still uses them on (certain types of) external drives (in certain types of folders) and in folders that already have them from a previous version of Windows (sometimes), but nowhere to the extent that it used to use them (because there now is a central cache for most of them), and nowhere near the extent that macOS uses .DS_Store.

ETA: All of which is why my first post said "most drives"...
Intro to Ethereum:Is this the internet's new government?
I think it's a mistake to think that developer ability is static, "quality" isn't a constant thing, by any means. Certainly we're supposed to keep learning and progressing. But there are plateaus. For example, I don't think myself or the person I championed for the raise/promotion were exceptional, it was simply a situation where what we were doing really "clicked" with both of us.

Later on, I had a member assigned to the team. They were going to fire this person, but asked me if he could have a chance on our team. I said sure. Turned out that this person needed a bit more guidance than they had received before, and when they got it, really began to shine. This person went from almost being fired to being a really valuable contributor on our team.

Myself, I left that company long ago, looking back I think it was a high point of my career. Never before or since have I had that level engagement with the domain or company.
Sorry most of it is off the cuff. I always localize it to who they are and what they are working on in that instance. Since my audience is non technical, almost no one decides to just buckle down and 'learn excel'. Commonly this means demonstrating filters and if statements. Pivot tables for the more advanced users.

I tried to make this switch because I bought into all the online criticism of the new MBP.

The build quality was very lacking compared to the new MBP.

The screen wobbled like crazy even when just typing on it.

The model I was using had a really horrible display with active ghosting (not sure if that's the correct term -- it appeared that the refresh rate was just very low, so moving the cursor around or dragging a window would leave a sort of "ghost trail" behind). It's possible this was just a defective display.

The trackpad was nowhere near as good as I was led to believe from online comments. It wasn't horrible, but multitouch gesture recognition felt years behind Apple's. Leaving a finger resting on the trackpad would break all kinds of gestures, but Apple's trackpads handle that just fine. I also didn't realize how nice the Force Touch trackpads are until I went back to a hinge-based trackpad where you can't even click everywhere.

Windows 10 is a big advance over previous versions, and I use it extensively on my desktop at home. However, the experience with a touchpad didn't feel anywhere nearly as polished as on my MacBook. Using trackpad gestures to slide between virtual desktops for instance had a very janky and obviously buggy animation.

Windows now has the Ubuntu subsystem, but I immediately ran into serious dealbreaker issues. I couldn't get Haskell or Elm to run on it because a core system call hadn't been implemented yet. The team is aware of it and I'm sure it's slated to be fixed soon, but I still couldn't do my work on the laptop without firing up a VM or dual booting.

I never used the touch screen and never felt the need to detach the screen and use it as a tablet. The aspect ratio of the screen also bothered me.

I'm now using the much hated 2016 MBP with Touch Bar and am extremely happy with the purchase.
That is what Wikipedia actually was in the early 2000s.
The good news is that unlike a manned taxi, a robocab does have much fixed per-hour cost. Basically, when a community can afford to have a considerable number of personal vehicles on passive standby, it could be enough of a market to support a somewhat similar number of robocabs on passive standby. Remote areas will certainly not be where commercial robocabs will start, but there is no reason to assume that it would be generally impossible our necessarily more inconvenient.

Not-so-commercial robot car pools might even start getting viable in rural areas, because some countries mandate a minimum level of public transport coverage and basing a few robocabs in remote villages could be many orders of magnitude cheaper (and certainly more useful) than repeatedly driving an empty bus around just to fulfill a schedule so sparse that only the most desperate will ever bother using it. Another angle that might lead to pockets of rural adoption much earlier than expected: many rural populations already have a lot of experience with pooling agricultural vehicles, this could occasionally be a seed for adopting local pool e.g. to support the elderly and doubling as a fallback for personal vehicles.
The Case for Optimism
I think you hit the nail here.

For the last half a decade I've tried most things in both nutrition and training. While I'm back to a moderate regiment now, both diet and training, not abstaining from anything I think the key takeaway is not of one diet to rule them all, but merely what insights each brings.

From doing LCHF I realized how hunger is altered by carbs.

From doing IF I realized how hunger is altered by ghrelin, and how it's very much trainable (in the span of about two weeks). Also how "real" hunger feels versus "fake" hunger, and that the feeling of hunger is completely harmless and can really sharpen your focus.

How neither is particularily easy on your social life.

Etc, etc. Even if I'm back to a "regular" diet now, I have a much better understanding of the things I eat, and can make more informed decisions, both on content, portion size, and meal times.

Everyone should try everything (if time permits). Never be afraid of exploring outside your comfort zone.

More or less. Sometimes, as the minutes tick, musing that I was enjoying become a distraction and then a source of irritation, and I urge to turn it off.

That's why I think the ideal solution is just to work from a quiet ambient, including your house. Everybody sitting near to each other and making noise is just good when you need to exchange ideas, discuss something. But being inside your own silent bubble is better.

> I probably do that only a few times per week.

Look at Mr. Popular over here.
You seem to have a practical outlook on the subject and I probably concur. I also think of, for example, the ascetic who self-immolates and does not succumb to the pain, but chars under the fire despite. Or the one who fasts for long durations enduring hunger and psychological torment but also atrophy and malnutrition. Or the putatively successful surgery substituting hypnosis for anesthesia. Certainly stress can weather a body or mind, and a salubrious head can fortify them. Perhaps there's an oxymoron or semantic trickster behind "drug. induced. psychosis.", and it could be referred to as "toxic state" instead. Regardless, not every individual is prepared for taking a Mind Over Matter approach to health, especially in terminal conditions. I think it might be a wiser approach to tout the possible benefits of applied psychology rather than indict the mind as the culprit of most illness. Also, thanks for the replies/comments.

Well, we did have a modem (Dad had bought the computer used from a guy at work and it came with a load of cracked software on floppies and a modem) but I think my folks were worried about me getting into trouble so they kept it stashed away somewhere I couldn't access.

Looking back it was probably a good move. No "hacking" the DOD or anything but I'm sure I'd have at least ran up some phone charges once I discovered BBSes.

Going one step further, I think 99% of the facts are irrelevant. It's the COVERAGE of the facts that matters. The presidential debates were a perfect example. WHAT was said was of absolutely no consequence. HOW it was said was equally inconsequential. What was important was all the chatter ABOUT what was said, and how it was said. The handful of media conglomerates TELL the vast majority of the population how to feel and what to think about what happened, and THAT'S the only important part to understand.

> In a nutshell, I'm arguing that I will win at the biological imperative because of my drive to work and succeed.

No, you are just using the same flawed reasoning over and over again. The way it can also work is that a bigger and more aggressive man comes along, kills you, and takes your woman.

Even the words you use come from Social Darwinism: "success" and "imperative" at some goal. The innate drive you talk about has nothing to do with reproduction - it is a set of instincts that makes mate finding and mating pleasurable. Goals and even establishing the causal connection between mating and reproduction requires reasoning faculties that not even most apes are capable of.

> Those people that don't want to work and succeed would contribute to their species by going off somewhere quiet, and avoiding consumption of the resources needed by their fellow species members that are grinding away at "life" in the evolutionary sense

And these people would listen to you tell them where to go and what to do because ...?

It is quite obvious that you are trying to use a single evolutionary psychology argument without having any knowledge of the field. Human mating strategies are incredibly diverse: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mating_system#In_humans. You have some kind of Puritan mental hangup about work that you are trying to justify with flawed reasoning.

This looks interesting, but I'm a bit iffy on a few things.

First of all is the perspectives filtering by relativity rating, which, while not yet implemented, is on the roadmap and seems to be an important future part of this encyclopedia. This idea seems to be an attempt to be more inclusive of people with various political views. This looks like a pretty big gamble to me, because it's not at all clear that this solution won't cause its own set of problems, or even work at solving the problem it purports to solve. The relativity ratings being on a one-dimensional political Left to political Right scale doesn't help my perspective on this, either.

There also seems to be some stuff about advertising in the info pages I read, which does not sound like a good thing. And the "Corelords" being corporate sponsors who oversee the editing of pages in their industry sounds pretty dangerous for an encyclopedia. But it's not clear how all this will work from what I've read, so it might be innocuous. Does anyone know more about this?

Then there are more cosmetic things, like the name being "Infogalactic", and the non-standard names for editors and admins, who are called "Galaxians" and "Starlords" respectively. These are harder to remember, and it's geeky in a sci-fi sort of way that's a bit off-putting to those of us who aren't big fans of sci-fi.

I do like that it's gamified a bit with a level system, though.

Anyone care to share their own perspective on this?

Going to local Chamber of Commerce style events, sponsoring/participating in parades, events, youth leagues and so on.
