Rust is a language in active development, continually getting improvements and new features. Using Rustup is the best way of managing up to date toolchains (and multiple toolchain versions if you have to).

It's no harder than apt-get install, and sets the best practice early on so that someone doesn't get confused and have to switch later.

"curl | sh" is only an anti-pattern in the sense that you have to trust the source (and therefore "curl | sh" without https is bad). It gives exactly the same ability to execute arbitrary code on your machine as downloading an RPM/DEB does, or adding a vendor specific repo (e.g. Docker). Distro package repos probably have broader scrutiny of the contents of packages, but there are a lot of packages so how sure can you be?

You can download the rustup bootstrapper if you don’t like curl to bash. I would recommend against using the debian packages.
This always amuses me, because I'm very quiet and introvert until I get to know people, and people who don't know me sometimes assume this means I'll be anxious in crowds.

But in fact, while I don't particularly like crowds, I learned very young that if you don't particularly want to interact with people, crowds are great. I can sit down in the middle of a party and spent 3 hours just observing people mindfully and be content, and most of the time people will ignore it.

But you can also act totally outrageous in a crowd, and people will tend to try to ignore you, not pay attention to you until/unless what you do personally affects them.

A useful exercise in that respect is to go a day and try to keep a mental count of how often you notice yourself thinking about your own actions vs. how often you notice yourself paying attention to someone elses action, and then at the end of it, try to recall those other peoples actions. Not only will most people find they spend far more time worrying about their own appearance or actions, but that they will have forgotten most of the interactions the noticed with other people even when trying to keep mental tabs of them.

Most things that most people do simply isn't that interesting to other people. Heck, most things that most people do isn't that interesting to themselves other than in the moment.
It's a lot closer to facebook than a game. It's basically a building game.

I would rather focus on what they do, not what they say.

e.g:

- Microsoft <3 Linux (what they say) https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/windowsserver/2015/05/06...

- Microsoft makes 2 billion USD collecting patent money from Android manufacturers (what they do)

Elon Musk has a decade of track record. Model 3 will eventually be delivered. My point of contention with TSLA is that the stock price does not match the up-side, but sooner or later Tesla always delivered. They will learn and deliver, I have seen reviews of Model 3, the average delivered vehicle will cost around 50K no doubt, but its worth every penny of it. Model 3 is not every man's car, but again a used Model 3 can be.

I am really impressed by Elon, even if fails spectacularly he has set things in motion his impact will be there in the fields he touched. In my opinion, he is better than Steve Jobs both in vision and execution.
In the presentation they suggest they are targetting customers who can get from A-B in one charge, and then charge while they are unloading/reloading the truck. Those customers actually save time on fueling.
Reading these studies nowadays feels like reading horoscopes. Chatty, interesting topics but strictly meaningless without an associated prediction or set of predictions of what will be found. (Predictions derived from theoretical explanations.) Hopefully predictive coding will correct this as we learn that AGIs literally can't see things without learning how to see them first, and therefore neither can we.

Reddit did that with Robin, their April's Fools Day experiment two years ago. It randomly connected small groups of the participating redditors in chatrooms, and would gradually merge the chatrooms if the majority of the users voted to do so. It was a lot of fun while it lasted, but I don't think anyone managed to successfully replicate it since.

Speaking of Hollywood, did someone notice that nearly every Hollywood movie made the 50s contained at least one scene in which the male star forces the female star to kiss him until she surrenders?

I guess that is the genius of Elon Musk.

First: I love the idea behind IPFS and decentralized storage and I'm sure there will be some valid use cases.

But: There's already tech available enabling these very use cases (see https://webtorrent.io/) and the adoption is pretty low. Plus IPFS doesn't solve the problem of disappearing peers at all. If no one's willing to mirror your awesome IPFS page, it will be gone the same way as with centralized hosting.

Fun Fact: IPFS is not BlockChain tech.

I think SL is sabotaging the popularity of metaverse with its pricing. They place the bulk of the cost on virtual land, which is super expensive, while their market is not very profitable and few ppl can make actual money.

Another problem is underpowered laptops with intel HD graphics and tablets.

I don't think the idea of metaverse is going away per se, it's a freeing and creative experience . I do think the focus on VR has held it back for 2 years now.
They're not pronounced at all the same, no. Naming your child Soren after Sören makes about as much sense as naming a child Ålän after Alan. You do realize that the "o" and "ö" are different letters representing different sounds, right?

Edit: As a dane you should realize how stupid it sounds for you to argue that Soren and Sören are the same, both with swedish and danish pronunciation. It's not at all being pedantic. Do you also think that ч is a 4 and н is a h? The only thing that "ö" and "o" have in common is that they're vowels.

Yes, they conflict with one another because they require very different mindsets. Ideation thrives in boredom, which is the opposite of focus. It's best spurred by getting away from your desk and taking a walk or a shower or going to the gym or doing something else that will keep your body but not your brain busy.

Both do require similar time management skills, though, because they require solid blocks of time without interruption.

You can write very efficient Cython code but it's true that in this case, you tend to adopt a lower level code style that is very close to C/C++. Basically, you need to think about the C/C++ code that will be generated by Cython.

C/C++ compilers might be able to generate more optimized native code than what rutsc does though. Actually, this is a question: how good is rustc with numerical / math intensive code? For instance, does it implements loop unrolling and SIMD vectorization?

So just like any other browser and JS-runtime. Exactly like v8 actually.

Node chakra is something you can knowingly opt in to use. And they've made efforts trying to get it merged back into mainline, just like any other good open-source citizen.

So how is that a problem again?

That's brilliant. With phones getting thinner this would feel even more natural. It would probably allow for better tactile feedback technologies as well, and even thinner devices.
yes, but the English spoken by most non-natives is actually something like an Esperanto. the pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar is almost normalized and an artificial dialect. i think English is a very good compromise. the only problem are French people and other communities who disdain English for patriotical, historical, or political reasons.
A comparable English expression is “the perfect is the enemy of the good”, which I think every software engineer should have engraved on to their monitors as a reminder.
If anything, CRISPR is continuously improving, it is not at fault for the other problem of "what to do with it".

Panics can be caught and handled by parent callers and thus behave a little bit like exceptions (not as pretty I'll grant you, but still better than the "no way out other than aborting the process" approach it seems at first glance). However you generally you don't want to catch panics except under rare conditions because panics are intended to be used in "the world is ending" kind of scenarios (it doesn't always work out this way but that is the theory).

For general error handling there is an error object that gets returned by functions. It leads to the often moaned about syntax below:

if err != nil {
return err
}

Yeah it's ugly. Yeah other languages have try / etc. But for all of it's sins I've found it still gets the job done.

The original design was no exceptions ever. Then panic was added in later for last resort cleanup. At least that's my understanding.

Maybe it's the snake handler in me but i feel that exception handling is a valid part of control flow.
fputs(stdout, string) avoids the newline too, although you'd now have to teach two functions (printf, fputs) as well as saying what "stdout" means. In a teaching context, printf("%s", string) is probably best as printf is being used in other lines in the same file already.
Oh no, they're doing what all the other carmakers do and reuse the same name for completely different cars whose only thing in common is to target the same market segment. We'll have to call this the 2020 Roadster.
The Commodore Amiga. Used it from release in 1985 through to 1993, at which point I had to admit defeat and defect. Much has been written, including a great retrospective on Ars, but its failure wasn't due to engineering. Way ahead of its time.

Minidisc. This was generally popular in Hong Kong and Japan, perhaps other parts of the world, but in the US I gather it was marketed as a CD alternative instead of a mix-tape alternative. Digital copy protection hobbled the latter immediately, of course. I still used a pair of them ten years after getting my first player as a poor man's two-track recorder.

They're not just announcing the Tesla Roadster here, they're opening up pre-orders for it too, with a substantial up-front deposit of either the entire price of the car or a fifth of it depending on how early in the queue you want to be. While they're having major problems delivering on their big current product they took in a fairly substantial amount of money in reservation fees for.

Kind of sad how rare it is to see applications actually honor the OS's user-chosen color and font preferences--especially on the web. Ideally you shouldn't even have to "set this up." We had OS-wide color themes as far back as Windows 3.1, probably even earlier. Remember "Hot Dog Stand?" You just tell the OS what set of colors and fonts you wanted all the windows to use, and all but a handful of badly-behaving applications would automatically conform. For whatever reason, this automatic behavior is getting less and less common--the badly behaving applications that hard-code their color scheme or require an application-specific theme system are becoming the norm. The concept never seemed to make it over to the web, either. I can set up my preferences to be "light blue backgrounds, dark blue title bars, and purple serif fonts" yet HN still shows up black-on-beige with an orange header. I'm not a web developer, so maybe this is a Hard Problem but it's always kind of irked me.
Yeah, me too. It's an interesting thing. The C syntax and imperative mindset is hard for a lot of people to get. Especially if they're not motivated by the effort.
I feel like that technology needs more time. Give it a few more decades, a couple of breakthroughs and lots of small incremental advances and we might yet see something resembling the Feed from Diamond Age.
So your body experiences 1.44 g horizontal plus 1 g vertical, giving total 1.75 g. Is that right?

Small nit. you are showing Visual Studio Code on your site. The larger Visual Studio editions at least 2012-2017 also support dark mode.
I am very skeptical of Microsoft's claims of node-chakracore interoperability.

For R for instance, the interoperability is one-way only. Microsoft R Open can fetch libraries from CRAN, but regular R software cannot use libraries from MRAN.

It's a superset of features, and once you depend on the extended features you cannot go back. In this way you are driven away from the project.

After the "extended" product gains the largest market share, then comes the "extinguish" phase (the end of collaboration), which has been their final goal all along: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embrace,_extend,_and_extinguis...

The "vm neutrality" claim on node is very specific to Chakra. I don't see them trying to integrate other VMs as well. Then, node's NAPI team are almost all Microsoft employees: https://github.com/nodejs/abi-stable-node
Steam engines have a distinctive sound too, one which I quite enjoy when one goes past, despite being too young to have any actual nostalgia. People will get over the sound thing, and ICE cars will be a historical curiosity/enthusiast hobby.
Graph Search always surfaced relevant information that explained why they matched a search. For example “Friends who visited London” might say “Checked in at Tower Bridge” below a result.

You’re right that people didn’t understand Facebook’s privacy model. People assume that privacy by obscurity is a guarantee. Never mind that anyone could write a bot that did what Graph Search did. Graph Search was actually more conservative than it needed to be to avoid surprises.

In the end that all mattered less than the fact that it wasn’t solving a problem people had.
I've always wondered about this. Do they have their own fuel tank and engine to run the compressor for refrigeration?
I agree with your main point, but would like to add that apt does have additional signature verification with gpg, so it's a bit more secure than just https (e.g. anyone with access to a trusted CA and your network can mount an active attack against you).
Basically because most "Exceptions" aren't very exceptional so errors should be handled as an ordinary part of your control flow.

Elon Musk said it himself with the Model 3:

> Assume the worst [0]

So sure we should be skeptical about the actual deadlines. But they're trying to compete against BMW & Mercedes (plus numerous other brands, but it seems like those two are their main competition). It's not like those are terrible companies, they've produced cars and engineering discipline of the highest quality for nearly a century.

I'd be more worried if there's some major flaw in the car, like if it's got the reliability of an 80s Jaguar (of which the stories about breakdowns in the gizmodo article are the biggest concern). The issues coming out about panel misalignment are bad (but I noted that my VW Golf I'm just buying wasn't perfect either), but not end of the world.

Still though my inner child doesn't care, it still gets very excited when car manufacturers show unrealistic made up cars [1]. But it seems like the Roadster might actually happen and it's nice to see the Roadster getting some love after being the car that started it all.
