During the past years of coding in C++ in the context of tensor networks in condensed matter physics, I have never encountered the case where a programming error which would have been caught in Rust or Go lead to incorrect results. Yes, there were plenty of crashes and plenty of hard to debug issues, but it was always obvious that something was wrong way before any results were calculated/printed/output.

.. what? It's discrimination against a group of people by religion-inferred-from-ethnic-origin-or-skin-colour. That's exactly what racism is. It's not "waving it off" at all.

Here's my rule of thumb on fundraising.

1)You are an expert in building companies (you've done it before, can do it again) - this would typically be the case of repeat founders who've raised funds before

2) you are a domain expert, or have an idea which you think you are the right person to execute

For 1) as most people have pointed out things are a lot easier (relatively)

For 2) either you:
a) have shown you are on the right track with customers (traction)
b) prove you are the right team for the job

Again, a) makes it a bit easier to go to institutional investors.
If b) the people who can be convinced of this would be the ones who know you and therefore trust you to do it (hence Friends and Family)
Other option is people in the relevant industry who believe you know what you are doing (uncharitably, the Fools portion of FFFs)

From what you've told us so far, you are not seed stage. You are pre-seed as they like calling it in Europe. Institutional investors are a bad fit for this stage.
Hence FFFs would be your best bet.

I would recommend accelerators, but very VERY few of them are actually worth it. But that does give you a leg up in the ecosystyem, by allowing your network to expand rapidly

Is the code in gravity_calculate_acceleration correct?
I think 'j' will always be 0 in the inner-loop, which seems to defeat the purpose of having a j variable.

void gravity_calculate_acceleration(int n_particles, double m[], double x[][3], double a[][3]) {
double G = 6.6742367e-11; // m^3.kg^-1.s^-2
for (int i=0; i<n_particles; i++){
a[i][0] = 0;
a[i][1] = 0;
a[i][2] = 0;
for (int j=0; i<n_particles; i++){
if (j == i) {
continue;
}
double dx = x[i][0] - x[j][0];
double dy = x[i][0] - x[j][0];
double dz = x[i][0] - x[j][0];
double r = sqrt(dx*dx + dy*dy + dz*dz);
double prefact = -G/(r*r*r) * m[j];
a[i][0] += prefact * dx;
a[i][1] += prefact * dy;
a[i][2] += prefact * dz;
}
}
}

>how much money does this capitalist make if consumers do not find his products valuable and don't purchase them?

None, but I have little sympathy or wish for the success of those who exploit others, especially if that profit derives from the exploitation itself. A society without exploitation is possible and even in this society one need not exploit.

>I'm glad you favor a zero taxation society where all social programs are funded entirely by charitable contributions by uncoerced individuals.

I have a feeling you are being facetious here, but you are essentially correct. But we must also take into account the unjustness of private property too, and that it is indeed coercive to give someone or class only a choice between forcing to sell their labour or to rely upon the charity of others or death.
This "why an investor is going to put money in you if your family and friends don't do it" question has been around for long in the startup 'hype' lingo, but I'm very curious if this has actually ever worked for founders that don't come from wealthy backgrounds, or from families with sizable savings (something that is a mirage for middle class families).

If you need 50-75K, perhaps it's better to just go for 100K€ (because things will not go as planned, as some investors will tell you) and, if you can build a solid case based on your business' performance, then reach out to angel investors, as 100K€ is an investment exactly in their ball park (unless your granny is sitting on 1M€ and can spare you 100K€).

PS: these things need proper planning, fundraising is a long process based on trust and personal impressions...so, contrary to what you read around the web, it's unlikely you'll have a lot of success (in Europe, at least) if you just show up of the blue to pitch your case and leave a business card behind, unless your revenue/orders are already solid and you have a realistic plan to multiply their volume/value.
I'll take that bet.
Thanks for info, that's helpful. It seems especially bad with virtualenv, since you have the possibility that different Python environments on the same computer have different certificate sets, depending on when you created the virtualenv or whether you updated certifi in that environment.

I think the changes should have been a lot more obvious. The OSX installer should have popped up a big box saying "Warning: This version of Python does not have any SSL certificates and will not be able to connect to secure HTTP connections. Without certificates these connections will fail to work. Please click this button to install the 'certifi' package, and read these VERY IMPORTANT notes to understand the implications of this change"

dberlow, I am finding this really interesting (as well as your essay[0] on the work-in-progress that is Amstelvar[1]).

What tools are you using for the design process? Anything like Metapolator[2]?

Personally, I feel that the critiques here concerning "ugliness" are overblown, as will most who recall the work of designers such as David Carson[3] and publications like Emigre[4]. It actually isn't that hard to find combinations that "work" as a display typeface, although I would probably want to tweak them manually a bit before use.

BTW, if David Jonathan Ross and Alexandre Saumier Demers are taking feature requests for the Decovar demo page, it would be nice if the URL reflected the skeleton/terminal combination currently on the screen (and it was bookmark-able).

The problem is that unless you perfectly specify your tests to provide a complete and formal definition of the interface, GP can produce results that might appear correct but is actually subtly (or grossly) broken.

That's an extremely difficult task for any but the most trivial problems. It shares many of the same issues with formal verification, which has also failed to catch on beyond the odd niche project.
Social media is a made word and concept to talk about online services designed to capture and collect and exploit private personal data that the users willingly give them, the "if you're not paying for it, then you're the product being sold". so email does not fall into this IMHO.

Not having social media account is the obvious answer, there is little that this will be implemented ever but having a multiple password account could be a workaround. a master password give access to all while another you could give to border guard would transparently limit the access to a sanitized version of the account. The other obvious answer to force the government and lawmakers to remove this policy.
At the cost of poor performance on the client [1], so you're just pushing any time saved in development onto your user.

The only way around the poor performance of table layouts is to use table-layout: fixed, which then means you lose all responsive layout so you'd need to create a new version for every screen size you wanted to support (and implicitly, not be able to support every size of mobile screen since percentages don't play well with fixed layout. In this case, you haven't saved any time and in fact have created more work for yourself along with a worse version of your site since fewer people will be able to view it properly.

I've watched Binney speak before and I sense very little personal remorse about his own involvement. Maybe it was just the times I caught his speeches, but he seemed to be a geek who never really stopped to think about what he was doing until it was too late.

He was one of the principal forces behind the "Five Eyes" agreement that "allows" for the end-run around our Constitutional protections, for example.

Still, I find 'purity' useless in the real world and it's important to have folks like Binney speaking out.

Why Europe Is Warning of Pax Americana's End
>> Is that done by the Gmail web client or is it something done by their SMTP server?

> The web client. Whether or not SMTP does this isn't the point here

If I happen to be using a mail client that doesn't modify the content of the patch and configure it to use Gmail's SMTP server, then it certainly renders that point moot. On the other hand, if it was the SMTP server then it would not be possible to send patches in that fashion regardless of what MUA was used (and would be a bigger problem in terms of contributing to projects that require inline patch submission via email).

>> One thing that I think would be an improvement to git format-patch and git send-email is having it default to setting the Message-Id header in the email it generates rather than relying on the SMTP server to generate it.

> That doesn't make sense, it doesn't know what message id to set.

It could use the value like <commit-sha1>@localdomain. Basically the message-id value should be a relatively unique value.

> It needs to hook in to a mail client to know that.

I think we may not be on the same page here. I was referring to the Message-Id header of the message itself (when it's written to disk by git format-patch), not the value of the In-Reply-To header or the last value in the References header.

So if git format-patch set that header when generating the message (rather than relying on the SMTP server to set that header), then you could easily have it refer to the file generated by the previous invocation by name, via a command option, to retrieve the message-id value and use it to populate the In-Reply-To and References headers (instead of having to retrieve the message from some remote server and copying its message-id value to specify as a command line option).

> there isn't an alternative organization that is working to protect second amendment rights that I'm aware of

There are a few others: Gun Owners of America (GOA), Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA), etc., but perhaps the biggest and most effective (though not nearly as large as the NRA) is the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) - who effects most of the change they desire through lawsuit.

The two largest gun rights cases of our era (to date) are DC v Heller and Chicago v McDonald. Both of those cases were the result of a suit initiated by the Second Amendment Foundation. They're also better about keeping themselves single-issue than the NRA, which is good for me personally because outside of gun rights and safety, I disagree with the NRA on very little.
I think there's also a very reasonable fear of making a false accusation - what if you're wrong, and it ruins the life of someone you're likely quite close to? Especially if an arrest is done very publicly, as it might be in the US, with SWAT kicking down their door, and a story in the news. Sure, the person might be released without charges, but that never gets the same attention as the initial arrest. When the persons name comes up in conversation there'll always be "isn't that the guy they arrested for maybe planning terrorism?". Who wants that guy for a colleague or neighbor?
My point was that the distribution of the material, especially free of charge does not necessarily encourage further abuse, nor does its possession. I do not know, though I admit that I suspect that the abuse would be encouraged because it is being paid for.

Edit: In my opinion, the following offences ought to exist with relation to child pornography and abuse:

(1) Child abuse is an offence as it currently stands, or with revised ages of consent to better reflect philosophical, scientific and psychological evidence
(2) The act of recording of abuse with majority or express intention of furnishing the material for charge or otherwise in order finance or encourage continuing abuse is an offence

I think the second part needs some elaboration. I don't think that recording a certain act taking place ought to be illegal, nor I do I think it ought to be illegal to share that material with others. However this presents a dilemma: the abuse may be encouraged by the fact that the material is being sold or even enjoyed. If this encouragement to continue abuse can indeed be proven in a court of law, by some standard deemed appropriate (either the standard 'beyond a reasonable doubt' or the more strict 'balance of probabilities') then the act of making the recording and the act of furnishing the recording, I believe, ought to be an offence.

On the other hand, if the recordings are made merely to provide the enjoyment of others, and not for the purpose of encouraging abuse, I do not think there should be an offence.

At the risk of over-emphasising the point:
A child abuser may be encouraged by (i) money (ii) the thought that people are watching the recording (there may be further motivations).

If it can be proven that abuse continued and the abuse was contingent on one or more of these factors, there is sufficient reason to believe that the intent of the recordings aided another crime, which I think may be sufficient to culminate in an offence.

Cost per passenger per mile is cheaper by rail than by road. It is just much more efficient.

If we then start to take into account the other costs such as pollution, land wasted on parking and wider roads, the increased area of municipal services that have to be covered because of the much lower density require for cars, and the massively increased health costs associated with a car lifestyle and trains not only are more cost efficient than cars they're an order of magnitude more cost efficient.

Trains are wildly efficient, they only use energy to overcome air and rolling resistances as energy used to accelerate is put back into the system during deceleration. They can pack many more people with much higher throughput. For example Crossrail in London is designed to have 24 1500 person trains an hour on a single track.

This was the basis of an excellent entry [0] in the 2007 Underhanded C Contest. It had a correct implementation of the RC4 encryption algorithm, except it used the XOR swap, so on average one byte of the pseudorandom state was zeroed every 256 iterations. Eventually, the state is all zeroes, and the encryption just outputs pure plaintext. Best of all, the first few kilobytes of output looks random at first glance.
