And that's exactly why I agree with the author: science is about finding what's true not about finding what's exciting.

It's not like the choice about what to spend money on is between "true" and "exciting". The choice is between "true and exciting" and "true and not exciting". We have to use something to choose what to invest in, so why not choose based on how exciting the potential discoveries are?

> The existing standard for constitutional review of treaties is that the things called for by a treaty are allowed unless the Constitution specifically forbids them.

That's a risible standard, though: it renders the Tenth Amendment a dead letter. It doesn't make any sense for the Constitution to explicitly reserve all powers not granted to the United States to the several states or people, and at the same time grant the United States the ability to collude with foreign powers in taking those powers from the states and/or people.

Yes, treaties are the supreme law of the land, but only if they are constitutional. The President & Senate could not enter a treaty which restores slavery, for example.
The commercially viable part will be the most difficult; even if they manage to get more power out of fusion than they put in, and do so in a stable fashion (e.g. always on), even then a reactor will cost in the order of tens of billions to build, and much more to maintain. I'll believe we'll have fusion power within 30-50 years, I can't yet believe it'll be economically viable in that period. It'll have to compete with relatively straightforward means of generating power, like solar. I expect it to be cheaper to just clad every roof in a country with solar panels - and it'll generate more power - than build a fusion reactor.

> This is antithetical to science. If you're promising a breakthrough discovery, you're approaching the experiment with bias.

You're mixing two uses of the word promise here.

One is like a guarantee. I promise to deliver a breakthrough.

Another is an expectation. There is the promise of a breakthrough.

https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/promise

The statement here means simply that there could be a breakthrough discovery and that the chances are at least relatively high.
You're totally correct. We (jClarity) will likely ditch our proprietary, hand rolled metrics gathering (which we built at great pain wince) in favour of FR. I'd be pretty surprised if all of the other vendors don't do something similar (Why NIH).

SMBs work that way, but it's an interesting way into the enterprise through "dark procurement" (essentially teams going rogue, buying a service without IT's knowledge, IT finds out, a business case is made... and boom... 2000 paying users instead of 1, having managed to subvert the usual pitching processes).

I agree, it's not right for a lot of products (some of which are better charged at a flat fee, or a per "thing" basis), but it's not a stupid decision for a lot of businesses.

Because building future science upon unverified discoveries is dangerous. Better to prove and measure the higs now rather than have some later and even more monumental experiment to discover a super-higs fail because the underlying theory was off by a few percentage points.
The LHC was a project of unprecedented magnitude and complexity. During the planning stages, CERN devoted some resources to developing better ways for teams on LHC and other projects to communicate with each other and share documentation.

That is the reason why the address in your browser's URL line starts with "http(s):" followed by "www." It's not an exaggeration to say that the work of Tim Berners-Lee at CERN led directly to the creation of trillions of dollars of economic value.

The article blames scientist for using catching names, but the title use "is in our DNA" that is clearly some kind of catchy metaphor [1] that doesn't have a catchy name at all. The main problem is that many areas reuse scientific terms to try to sound reliable.

> But yeah, experiments, especially nowadays, are to prove theories, not to push breakthroughs - in fact, given the higgs boson was already theorized, science could already use it. Not sure what the LHC added to that besides proving it exists.

Theory verification is a very important part of physics. For example lots of people who work in string theory write down lots of crazy theories of how physics looks beyond the standard model. Perhaps they are all wrong, but we currenly have nothing better. So we would really love to have any currently experimentally viable way with which we were able to check these theories. Thanks to LHC we could do this at least for the Higgs boson. Before this experiment the Higgs boson was also "just a crazy theory that was able to resolve a hole in the standard model".
And the problem is?

They have to lobby to start charging for the services they will do in the future. If they don't do that, they will soon have to lobby to get free money from people, and that last one can only end badly.
> use the type system to have the compiler statically check the pointers are live

It doesn't explain how it would statically ensure that a moved-from unique_ptr (or equivalent) can not be used. In fact the only mentions of moves are that owning pointers can only be moved and soft pointers can be moved or copied, but C++'s move does not remove any access, it just moves the content leaving the moved-from object in a "valid but unspecified state".

Note that valid != safe. Dereferencing a moved-from unique_ptr is unsafe for instance.

Rust's affine types solve this issue, a moved-from type (Box included) simply can't be used, its scope ends when it's moved.

> Looking online, I see that people implement all the same primitives in rust, with exactly the same safety caveats.

Rust's (safe) pointers and references don't throw exceptions on explicit use after free because such code doesn't compile at all, and its equivalent to dynamic_cast has to be very specifically opted in: https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.19.0/std/any/trait.Any.html#meth...
Isn't the cheap solar power already being developed as a solution? The prices go down, the processes are in place, there are no problems with legislation (like with nuclear power etc) - it looks like a perfect solution and the western world is rolling it out as we speak.
Incomplete quote: '...dimensionless ratios between free parameters or physical constants appearing in a physical theory should take values "of order 1" and that free parameters are not fine-tuned.'

It just means that theorists are suspicious of theories where the parameters have to be adjusted to high precision to match reality. That's reasonable grounds for suspicion, but it's not natural law.
How to launch a successful ICO?
For me I'd say it more that I hate doing all 3 things. Shopping, cooking, and cleaning. Shopping is probably the worst because it involves the most decisions. So if I can cut that out of what I need to do, it makes cooking and cleaning that much easier.

I mostly use instacart, but my parents have gotten me food delivery services as gifts and it is pretty nice. The thing I find frustrating about it however are the portions.

I'm probably outside of the norm, but I don't mind eating the same thing all the time. I would love to cook a bunch all at once and eat it all week. With the portions offered, I can usually eat 2 of the meals as a single meal.
Future proofing isn't all about providing a service today for a possible need tomorrow. Plenty of fiber is sitting in walls unused because people thought in-home fiber networks were going to be a thing. Don't provide the cables. Provide the conduit for future cables. Leave the accessible passages and pull-throughs and let future generations decide exactly which cables to install.
I lived then and these pictures are very shallow and only show a little of what things were like. They should show things like Fishkill, NY, and how we would dump trash out in the sea, how every area had an impromptu dump down by the river where old mattresses and wash machines ended up and took decades to clean up, where people thought it was OK to dump their auto oil directly onto the ground, massive exposed unlined dumps where auto and household chemicals would leak eventually into aquifers, companies dumping things like chrome plating, benzene enough it floated on drinking aquifer (see Love Canal, etc.), where a guy thought it OK to buy medical waste and bury hundreds of the barrels in his back yard "because it was his land", or along Lake Erie where you could not even get near it from stink of dead Alewives(arguably man-made). The environment was worse than they portray in this pictorial.
That proof of existence alone is what now holds up decades of work that was done by theorists based on the (then) assumption that the Higgs mechanism is real. The observation is a major puzzle piece in that picture. Without the experiment, all that theory would be worthless.

> I'd argue that use cases for 'soft pointers' are about the same as that of Rust's RC<T>, which also incurs runtime costs (very briefly - there is no magic here, neither with Rust).

The article's "soft" pointer does not own its contents and depends on an owning pointer, so the semantics are much closer to Rust's references. In fact, the article draws an analogy between soft pointers and weak_ptr. And of course dereferencing "soft" pointers can fault.

> Whether C++ or Rust or whatever-else, mutexes at app-level are evil ;-) (it can lead to a very long discussion, but long story short - finally, by 2017, most of the opinion leaders started to converge to this IMO-very-obvious observation: ASYNC RULEZZ! <wink />).

Async does jack shit for concurrent safety. You can have either shared-memory concurrency or isolated concurrency.

And explicit asynchronous API (à la JS or C#) are dreadful.
They are also not very honest about "Cherry copied our backlighting idea" - all the MX I ever saw have a hole for a 3mm LED, and I'm sure I saw other vendors selling backlit keyboards with MX switches even if Cherry itself was late to this game. I think it's all retarded, and it's not very innovative by itself to replace blue diodes or whatever with multicolor diodes. Whatever will sell to kids eh?

I'm definitely late to the party, but I've used Markdown, CSS, and Weasyprint to make some attractive PDF files (including my resumé, so I put my money where my mouth is). It lets me style things as I like without much extra work, and since Markdown produces simple, predictable HTML, I can keep a library of styles that I can apply to any document.

No. They're completely different things. Genes are a cookbook. Gene expression ("activity levels") is cooking. You don't need to rewrite the cookbook every time you want to cook something different, you just pick a different recipe from the book. Gene expression changes all the time. That's how you can have different types of cells even though they all share the same DNA. And that's how your cells can adapt to changing conditions. Including changing your diet. Or spending a year in space.
This straw-mans common conservative views, though.

It frames the argument as either "the EPA, as it exists today and has been running" or "no EPA at all." There are plenty of legitimate criticisms of a lot of the EPA's activities and very few of those activities directly prevent what's shown in the photos.

Not sure if this is a good comment, it is just two questions:

Are there good quality articles like this about the quran? (would they give a background to attitudes in places were islam is common)

Also, does this sort of article feed a personal interest in the subject or do they explain something about the psyche of modern people? (i assume not many people are influenced by these ideas in the north america/europe today)
I think theoretical physics might be in need of a short dose of internal reflection and debate coupled with some side reading of contemporary philosophy, metaphysics, and philosophy of science. These sorts of debates around concepts like "naturalness" and "laws of nature" are philosophical bread and butter.

This isn't to say that modern philosophers aren't susceptible to alluring desert landscapes like "naturalness", but at least philosophers are trained to think about and critique these kinds of things. Physics needs to be capable of having this debating itself and recognise assumptions with wobbly metaphysical underpinnings.

They aren't as great as often claimed. Since they rely upon potentially slight differences in diameter, any layering of cable on either side radically alters things. You have to be religious about policing the rope as it rolls onto the cylinder. This also limits the amount of cable that can be used to whatever can wind on without layering. So ya, it can raise an extremely heavy bit of bridge a few feet, but it isn't suitable for anything resembling a crane or hoist. It is great for lifting an engine block off its mounts, but not for lifting lumber up the side of a building.
Has there been any documented rise yet or is it supposed to start later?
An obvious solution to me would be hiking grid connection fees to the point where that part of the business doesn't operate at a loss, then.

> Once you've entered the realm of undefined behavior, the compiler can really do whatever it likes. Before then all it can do is assume you're not doing anything undefined.

In practice there is very little difference and you're effectively entering the realm of UB as soon as the program starts, because through inlining and propagation a possible UB may be leveraged before the UB is sequentially hit.

Am I to understand from this article that the LHC is over? That the global community of particle physicists can't come up with anything interesting to do with the world's most powerful particle collider? I do hope I'm misinterpreting the article, because that would be a huge disappointment.
That's unfortunate, and why we should have chip + PIN, not just chip.
I'll take a stab (I Am Not A Physicist (in fact I couldn't handle the math and moved to CS ;-) ). Parameters or constants in a theory generally have units (i.e. speeds, density, whatever). But lots of things (usually ratios) have no units because they all cancel out. Those are called "dimensionless". Pi is dimensionless, as is e.

What the naturalness property seems to be saying is that these dimensionless parameters (which you have to stick into the equations to make the math work out) should all be around the same order of magnitude and not require too much precision. If there is such a parameter that is super huge or super small (in relation to the others) or requires a lot of precision, it's an indication that the theory is incomplete. There should be an observable reason for that difference/precision.

If I've gotten that right, then I can see why people would be sceptical of naturalness. If naturalness was correct, I would actually be curious of why it was correct.

(x) Don't use public DNS such as google (or the DNS provided by your ISP such as Vodafone). Look for an anonymous non-logging service preferably outside Turkey

(x) Tor is is one of many layers for anonymity to circumvent blocking. Don't "just" install the tor-browser or tor-proxy on your system but run tails from a clean machine. If you know what you're doing you might want to help others by isolating whole networks using PORTALofPi to guarantee no DNS-leaks. Pro-Tip: build a LEDE based device and share your design with the community so others can benefit and give you input (because you will make mistakes).

(x) Don't use mobile internet if you don't know what you're doing (those who know what they're doing don't use mobile phones for critical comms)

(x) Use burner phones with anonymous SIM cards and aggressive hardware based compartmentalization. Check this article for good OpSec/compartmentalization tips (second half of the article after the discussion on browsers that looks dated).

(x) Despite popular claim VPNs don't give you anonymity. They shift the trust from your ISP to the VPN. If you pay for a VPN service by credit card consider what the payment provider knows about you.

On the other hand, does the EPA really require 8 billion dollars per year when the protection laws have already been passed and improvements have already been made?

In a software project, you allocate $x per month during development, and only $(x/10) for maintenance after it has shipped. Is there a point where the EPA can say "mission accomplished" and downsize to maintenance/enforcement mode, or is this just a typical government organization that will happily consume as many tax dollars as it can get as long as it can?
There was a huge rise around 12,800-11,600 years ago after the last ice age came to an abrupt end. As far as I'm aware ocean levels have been mostly stable ever since.
The thing that gets me is that they are simultaneously making claims that some of those vulnerabilities can't just be fixed with a quick firmware update and that they would allow for a backdoor that could never be removed. If the flaw that allows the attacker to overwrite the firmware with their own version can't be fixed in software then how exactly is the malicious firmware supposed to prevent its own removal?

One of those claims has to be false. If an attacker can shut the door behind them so to speak then it has to be possible for AMD to do the same.
> My point was more that your compiler is not hitting a line of code and saying "I know this is or is not UB" because it can not do that in the general case

I think it's still a (cause of) misunderstanding. For the compiler, UBs are situations which axiomatically can not occur. "This is UB" is not a concept, because the compiler assumes at all point that UBs can not occur.

The compiler doesn't go "oh you're dereferencing a pointer which may be null, fuck you", it goes "you're dereferencing a pointer so it can't be null, and thus I can remove anything assuming possible nullability".
