It would certainly be easier if Fenn is still alive. The last line of the poem says...If you are brave and in the wood, I give you title to the gold.
This is making me wonder if Kim Jong Il has been executing officials and family so rapidly not because they were for peace, but rather because they were pushing a hard line agenda and he is the one who wanted to make peace with the south. It would be very interesting if it turns out that all of his previous public speech was actually forced, and he had to remove a lot of people before he could push through this agenda. Unlikely I'm sure but not impossible.

I don't think this is the case. I think it's the difference between say sociology of philosophers, and philosophy. One approaches the field from the outside, one approaches it from within. Neither are particularly more rational than the other, but they instead focus differently. Or maybe anthropology and history is a better comparision.

I normally use IMDB. Quick tip: Never check the average rating of a movie. Instead immediately go to User Reviews and check the spread of ratings given there.

You'll find that many 'blockbuster' movies with high average rating have reviews with lotsa insanely high 10's and lotsa 1's on the other hand. I've found the 1's are more trustworthy overall (plus, if you don't mind spoilers, there are hilarious plot analyses to be found).

Depends what you're competing on. IIRC (can't view your link) OCaml/Haskell performance is much closer to Rust than it is to Python (runtime tends to like x for rust, 2x-5x for OCaml/Haskell, and 70x or more for Python) - if IshKebab's starting point was "my Python script is too slow, I need something an order of magnitude faster" then OCaml/Haskell would be competitive with Rust in that space.
Trump has already achieved plenty domestically (tax bill, successful supreme court appointment, disrupting regulation efforts at the EPA and FCC etc) but I can't say I see much evidence that this development can be attributed to Trump. Of course, nothing happens on the geopolitical stage without some influence from the U.S, but the evidence I do see suggests that this is mostly a combination of factors having to do with South Korean leadership and other recent positive developments between SK and NK during the Olympics. If it comes out that Trump had a specific role in these negotiations then I think he deserves recognition for that, but as of now I haven't seen any indication of that.

In North America, honey bees aren't wildlife, they're livestock. Banning substances to protect them would be a little bit like banning substances to protect beef steers. You could imagine it being reasonable, but the bar for harm would be set pretty high --- especially since the people applying the pesticide are also in large part the people bearing the brunt of its impact on bees.
I fucking love Redis. We use it inside a large scale email sending platform to do all manner of rate limiting and real time analysis of streaming data to make routing decisions. Could not live without Redis.
Neither it has been mine. I have written C and C++ only in college, so my impression might be very wrong, but I think that programmers who are proficient in low level languages are the ones that learn Rust the fastest due to the low level concepts Rust's compiler puts upfront such as sane memory management.

Debatable.
So yes, this was a TSR, except that it resided in unaccounted for memory. Also, since you put it into the MBR, it would get loaded into ram automatically with every boot, and no fiddling with autoexec.bat or anything where it could be easily discovered. All this of course, in trying to understand the fascinating world of viruses.
Skimming through that link, it sounds like the GIMP developer ran out patience with you, and became more snarky than necessary. However, it's hard to blame him. You come across as ridiculous in that thread, and now even more so digging it back up a month later in a completely separate thread.

Biblical studies

Religion and religions (Contemporary Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam and Hinduism)

Within my choice of words, I would call this religious studies. I'm reserving theology for when you focus on a specific religion, and the idea is that that religion is actually true (as opposed to studying many religions like you'd read many authors in an English degree.) Still, if Oxford disagrees with me about the dictionary then it is probably me who is abusing language. ;)

"CTM"?
Frankly this strikes me as really hacky. A million operations a second isn't even that much. Something like Chronicle [1] can do millions of atomic operations a second. A cluster of 10 nodes for what are basic in-memory counters? And the wackiness of Lua scripts to read from the cache?

It all seems a bit much. I've solved similar problems in the trading space (processing raw market data feeds) with much less.

It's interesting how different communities have their hammers and nails. Redis seems to have really taken over certain consumer-web-oriented communities. In other more enterprise communities I've seen people lean heavily on distributed cache products like Hazelcast etc. And in trading this sort of thing is so bread and butter and common that everybody has internal solutions.

This right here is the big one, to be honest. Yes, clocks, latency between parts of the die, etc are all problems - but they can be worked around with some effort.

Thermals and also power delivery are huge problems with large chips, just compare the massive 471 mm2 die of the GP102 (1080 Ti/Titan X) to the 150 mm2 die of the Coffee Lake hexacore chips. GP102 can draw 250-300W depending on boost clock, the Core i7-8700K can also draw upwards of 200W depending on how high you push the clocks and vCore (to keep said clocks stable).

There's a reason why board-partner GPU's always have huge coolers attached to them, and why people pushing CPU clocks are often using at least a giant air cooler like the Hyper 212 EVO or an AIO liquid cooler with a 240mm+ radiator.

Hell, let's skip thermals and just talk electricity - getting 200W+ of stable power to the cores on these dies is no easy task as-is, that's why you have people like buildzoid doing reviews of power delivery on motherboards and GPU boards to see if VRM's are going to blow up trying to power your expensive hardware if you're overclocking (or sometimes even if you aren't).

All in all, we have thermal and power scaling issues at current chip sizes - making them bigger isn't particularly feasible unless everybody is going to start installing 360mm radiators in their system and even that might not be enough depending on clock speeds and the vCore required to maintain them.
False dichotomy. It's a fair to say that Obama did nothing to deserve a peace award, but obviously Trump and Kim don't deserve one either.
> Imagine I could read your mind by reading someone else mind. are you ok with me having access to your private thoughts just because someone gave me access to their mind?

Even if you and I were parent and child, I don't think there's a reasonable philosophy of ownership on which you could hinge the notion that I can't donate the DNA in my cells to a cause because the pattern of half of the (physically completely independent) DNA in your body has a relationship to my own.

I do think you're touching upon possibly an interesting wrinkle in the way our current philosophy of ownership treats data about groups vs. data about an individual. Similar lines of thought underpin the question of whether your friends are culpable for sending data about themselves to Cambridge Analytica if it allows CA to extrapolate information about you.

However, I currently know of no philosophy of ownership that makes the described scenario bad apart from the general "it's a dick move if you do it on purpose to screw someone else over" (but that hinges on the general category of "Don't screw people over on purpose," not on any concept of joint ownership of data).

To pull another analogy: imagine I had dated a rapist and although I didn't have enough evidence to get him convicted of a crime, I told all my friends he was dangerous and now they won't date him. Is this bad? Quite the opposite; it's the system that is already of necessity in place to protect people from bad actors that the legal system fails to handle.

Yes, it was amazing (to those kids) the number of things that I could do for them just using basic commands like DIR and FIND and such under Windows. And when I started using Powershell for the more complex stuff, I got "Powershell? I think I'd heard of that." These were folks in their 20s and 30s, so you'd have thought maybe they would have been a little more on top of such things. But in reality if it wasn't "click, click, drag, drop" then it was generally quite alien to them.

BTW, I think I remember a couple more of those resume flags. Back in the day I was taught to list things out like this, this, and this - that last comma being known variously as the Oxford, Harvard, serial, or series comma. (See what I did there?) But the "modern" way of doing it is this, this and this - with no Oxford comma.

Another had to do with email addresses. Dare you ever list something like an aol.com email address (which my wife still has, for example) lest it flag you as "old school"?

Interesting aside here as to things like Facebook: a few years back there was a notion being promoted among hiring folks (no doubt being pushed by Zuck himself) that if you weren't on Facebook then there must be something seriously wrong with you - that you were probably socially or technologically inept, and you were likely then not a good fit for hiring purposes. Today, of course, "Delete Facebook!" is all the rage.

The Irish diaspora and its effects are also a valuable though horribly neglected bit of history, which has a direct bearing on the immigration and civil rights crises of today.

Irish immigrant slums in New York and London were once so problematic that police wouldn't go there unless in numbers. There were criminal/terrorist gangs who enacted their own law. The filth was quite notable. In the history, you can find parallels to many of today's issues. Also relevant: In the early 1800's, the typical Irish peasant had only 1/2 to 1/4th the wealth of the contemporaneous US slave!

It's not the borrow checker that the author considers a problem. It's move semantics and futures. The borrow checker was a huge breakthrough in language design. Some of the other new stuff is marginal. Trying to hammer Rust into a functional language via the template system was probably a mistake.

This does put egg smack on the face of a lot of people though so I fully expect Trump’s role to be downplayed as much as possible. I’m already hearing and reading Trump had little/nothing to do with it but that’s ok, peace is more important than credit, and the American people can judge for themselves what happened.

It is really, really hard to do i18n really well. Most developers think it is easy because they don't consider all the little details that you need to get right. It's everything from input fields using comma or period as the decimal separator, Sunday or Monday as the start of the week, to currencies, different line lengths, time formats and much more.

IMHO, unless you plan to support more than half a dozen locales, it is less work to do one website (or frontend) for each locale than it is to build one website that adapts to multiple locales.

Good enough i18n is much easier. Just keep all strings in an associative array: {("greet", "en") : "Hello", ("greet", "ru") : "Здравствуйте!"} then each time a message is to be printed, have a function that looks up the correct translation: i18n_lookup(string_key, language).
The original HN title didn't include the "in Rust" part.

Philosophers are not expected to believe any one specific theory of metaphysics, nor are historians expected to think anything specific happened except for what's directly supported by evidence. Sociology of religion would belong in a university on account of having plenty of material evidence, along with anthropology and sociology of philosophy as they study there respective subjects. Theology, if it were taken as a study of religion as a phenomenon, would fit in universities. Theology, taken as a study of any specific religion that was supposed to be true, wouldn't.

It's abandoned property, where the only person with a colorable claim obviously, publicly, notoriously, and intentionally relinquished it. It will depend a little bit on the laws of the state where it is found, but in general, if you find it, it is yours.

When you attempt to sell bits of it, dealers in e.g. gold coins might ask you the provenance, and then you say "It was the Fenn horde", and you probably show the photo you took on your camera phone because you're presumably smart enough to do that, and that's the end of that conundrum.
This event is certainly a fascinating study in cognitive dissonance.

I'd say so. Esoteric personal definitions for established terms, even if they make a lot of sense to you, don't typically lead to productive discussions. It's probably best not to wade into one, correcting people, unless you actually understand the vocabulary.
