This and the Nike article make me wonder about the possible emergence of higher-standards news media like the NYT into even more of a science & research-fostering-performing role. The possible benefits, the opportunities, the risks. Journalistic standards are very closely related to what we expect of science in many ways. Could "vetted media organization" be used in addition to "professional peer" in formal publishing guidelines, because things already seem to benefit from the additional filtering.
It’s a blend of Hindi and English (Hinglish). Here’s a wiki you may find interesting.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinglish

> Hinglish, a portmanteau of Hindi and English,[1] is the macaronic hybrid use of English and South Asian languages from across the Indian subcontinent, involving code-switching between these languages whereby they are freely interchanged within a sentence or between sentences.[2] While the name is based on the Hindi language, it does not refer exclusively to Hindi, but "is used in India, with English words blending with Punjabi, and Hindi, and also in British Asian families to enliven standard English".
I've often felt limited by the current state of note-making/todo/spreadsheet tools (ideally, they're all grouped into one app with cross platform sync), and this looks like a great step in the quick notemaking aspect. Glad to see it's open source as well.

Purges are being applied in a way that disproportionately impacts demographics likely to vote for Democrats, by Republican state legislatures.

There is absolutely no evidence to support the premise that voter fraud is anywhere near the order of magnitude needed to make a difference in elections. It is a non-problem.

Any kind of blade material and sand will cut through most rocks with time and effort. I seen an old stone cutting mechanism that used a small water wheel, metal blades, and they just kept dumping sand under the blade as it got pushed back and forth by the water wheel. The metal caught sand bits which ground through similiar to diamond cutting blades today, just with sand. That example had multiple blades but I imagine a single blade would be faster although requiring extra attention in replacing the sand. I don't think egyptions used water wheels but it can also by done by hand albeit with a lot of effort, but they did have a lot of spare time in agricultural off seasons.
Data structures and their relationship cannot express everything.
SQL is not Turing complete if you don’t use CTE to introduce recursion.
And I think that we all agree that SQL is perfect to work on data structures and their relationship.
Third is to introduce new concepts into your language as if they were part of that language from the get-go. Which can entail both eliminating repetitive code patterns and doing computation at compile time.
All state is a problem; it's something you need to keep in mind when analyzing code, because it may be used in a given computation. You need to keep it all in your head in order to comprehend what is happening.

Local state here is better than global state, especially if you consider the advice to write shorter functions - if your functions are small, so are the scopes in them, and the local state is easy to trace and memorize. Global state is not bounded, there could be hundreds of constants, enums and global objects to keep in mind.

Immutable data structures are easier to comprehend than mutable ones, because there's less points where state is modified. If you take Redux as an example, you still need to know what is in the "immutable store" at any point in order to understand how the code uses it; Redux tries to minimize the pain by limiting changes to the store in actions/reducers and by giving you access only to part of the store(local state vs global). However, you still need to understand what changes a sequence of actions perform on the store, so that's still state you need to be concerned with.

Minority View Warning!!

In a small rural village, when one person misbehaves, everyone knows and punishes the offender with collective actions. That serves as a major deterrent against bad behaviors. This mechanism is weakened by the size of community. Reputational information cannot always travel as far as a person could. The social credit system is a reimplementation of this mechanism from the old days.

It can be abused the same way. A village peon who angers the powerful become an outcast regardless of who is in the right.

>"How do you know all this stuff?"

I've sometimes been asked this from friends and colleagues, when I've talked about some subject that I happen to know something about, be it electronics or plumbing or bicycle repair or baking or sound mixing.

I absolutely do not claim to be an expert or master in any field, but I do have reasonable knowledge and familiarity, as well as an unceasing desire to learn more.

Being a "knowledge sponge" and constantly curious about the world is a hallmark of geekdom to me. As is the willingness to try, fail and try again, and learn from it.

My parents made sure to instill these values, so I was naturally helped into the geek mindset.

My mom is a teacher and naturally curious about everything, she's a popular science enthusiast, if such a thing exists.

My dad is what used to be called a "radio mechanic", and has never been afraid to take on DIY tasks of any kind, and involve me in them.

In general hobbies have always been important in my family. My uncle assembles his own racing bikes and has hand-built several wooden kayaks, just as an example.

Maybe not everyone has taken the same way into greatly expanded general knowledge, but I like to think a lot of us have this desire to learn new things.

The real trick is to know the limits of your knowledge, and to admit when you hit them ;-)

I do this kind of woodworking as a hobby. A lot of the material I use has been riven or split from firewood or yard trees. I mostly use dry or half dry wood, but sometimes also green stuff.

It is a bit time consuming, but not that much when I take into account that I don't need to be transporting stuff to a sawyer and back home, then to a shop with jointers and planers and whatnot. I can do it all in my home shop with a handful of tools whenever I want.

Sorry but if the error gives you the right command to run first time then it should just run it first time by default. Sane defaults for new users is good UX. Not an error telling you exactly what command to run instead. It already knows what you intended, for Christ sakes, because it's telling you what you should copy and paste instead!

For many you either need to do it in the issuing country or at an embassy. Example: https://ottawa.mfa.gov.hu/eng/page/utlevel-igenylese

I live in vancouver so my choices include a 4.5 hrs flight to Toronto, paying very close attention when they travel to Vancouver (which is effin rare, see https://ottawa.mfa.gov.hu/eng/page/kihelyezett-uegyfelfogada... -- right now if you try to get an appointment you simply get a 'no appointments available' error) or just renew my passport in Hungary. For me, that's relatively easy since I am back there at least twice a year so that's OK. But the bastards just changed the procedures so the valid date is your last birthday so when I recently renewed I got 9 years and 1.5 months instead of ten years. And, if all goes by plan in a few years I won't travel to Hungary ever again so this will become a major hassle but as long as the idiot government doesn't pull a Huxit it's still worth it because it gives me free movement in the EU.

That's a useful article. The easy parts include

- The halting problem is decidable for systems with finite memory. That's simple enough; a deterministic program with finite memory must either halt or repeat a previous state. Now the question is, is there a faster way to determine the outcome than running the program? That's a complexity problem. One of those where the average case is much easier than the worse case. Many NP-hard problems are like that.

- The same scaling issue applies to the "Chinese room", which is an extremely inefficient solution to the problem. The question is how much can you improve on exhaustive enumeration.

Then it gets hard. I thought it was established that quantum computing is not going to allow brute-force search (using multiple universes?) on problems like factoring. Is that wrong?
Not the OP but I started with cookie based auth and Spring Security and then moved to OAuth 2 - it’s extremely painless to setup (100 lines of code at most) but it did take a while to understand it all.

The Baeldung Spring Security course helped a lot.

If in a hurry though you can always use an external service like Auth0. I had that setup in an afternoon whereas understanding OAuth 2 and Spring Security took a week.

Reputation is very abstract concept and in the eyes of the beholder. There is no universal reputation metric.

In the US there is credit rating system, which everyone used prior to 2008 to determine who is credit worthy. After economy collapsed majority of businesses just completely ignored it because huge chunk of population who still had good jobs just defaulted on their obligations, because their assets were so much underwater.It just made total economic sense to default.
That is what I meant. It is true holding accountable. It is very legitimate action. So is reporting false advertisement etc. Or lobbying for bigger window when you can return game or whatever regulations would make it easier to get money back next time.
No just don't switch on a new kludgy ad hoc argument:

//bad:

int countlines(file afile, bool hasfuckeduplineendings, bool needtobusywaituntilreadswillsucceed)

My preferred solution, and I don't claim that this is correct, is just to put a global variable

bool nexthasfuckeduplineendings = false; //set to true before counting lines in a file that needs preprocessing for fucked up line endings

bool needtobusywaituntilreadswillsucceed = false; // this is a hack. Certain specific files will just fail to read for an unspecified period of time, they will fail and fail and fail and then succeed. For cases that we know this will happen, set this to true.

See how awful and fucked up this is?

It is "obvious" that this hack is just so wrong.

But is it really? It's clear, gets shit done, and is super transparent about how wrong it is.

Should every reader hang in a busy loop?

Should every reader preprocess line endings?

Maybe "no" and "no".

I noticed a big boost in quality of life when I dropped down to 4 day weeks.

Working a full time job, I had gone from my usual "doctor visit every 10 years" to "doctor visit at least once a year", with an added flu or something each year on top of that. So when kid #2 came along, I used the excuse to drop down to 4 day weeks, and once the family was ticking away on all cylinders again I started using that extra day for climbing, cycling, and other "selfish" things. The idea being that this was "my day" and not just an extra day to do errands.

Boy what a difference it made. I haven't had more than a case of the sniffles since. I'm healthier, happier, and get to spend more time with the family.

I've since packed in the job entirely (to live off my business stuff full time) but if I do ever take another full time job, I'll be sure to negotiate 4 (or even 3) day weeks in to the contract. It's just night and day.

Modern Urdu on the Pakistan side of the border is quite similar. The amount of English that is worked into Urdu in a higher budget TV or movie production is increasing. Or watch any of the major Pakistani TV news channels (Geo, etc) for an example.
There were studies on that, will simplify it a bit. Long term, 30 hours per week produced less then 40. 40-50 makes no difference in how much you produce, anymore then that lowers product.

Original studies were done with factory work. It is harder to evaluate mental work.
I'm mostly comfortable with designing not-the-worst REST-inspired APIs when it comes to paths, query params and post/put/returned bodies.

Where I do have trouble is specifically with error codes. There never seems to be the right one. Returning any frequency of 5xx error codes could give any load-balancer a reason to remove the instance and replace it. Returning far too many 400 codes makes many errors difficult to distinguish and often the cause is shared between the client and server and could succeed later, so would be inappropriate.

The main source of difficulty is where codes describe conditions rather than subsequent actions. It's better to think of 429 as the client shouldn't reissue the same request without backoff. This handles both rate-limited requests as well as a server being overloaded. In this case all is well. Status 400 tells the client not to reissue the same query--it's not clear if that only refers to the lexical structure of the query/body or also the server state, in which case 409 may make more sense. I don't have a clear understanding of what other codes mean to clients or servers.

When should one use 410 Gone:

"The 410 response is primarily intended to assist the task of web maintenance by notifying the recipient that the resource is intentionally unavailable and that the server owners desire that remote links to that resource be removed."

These codes were created for HTML and not REST in mind so we'll have to make do, but don't think they're complete or perfect as-is. New status codes keep getting created with varying adoption.

I think if Netflix is smart and continues on this path then they can really cause a disruption in movie production houses in India.

The current Indian movie production houses are family or driven by an individual's vision (whether Karan Johar's, Salman Khan's, Yash Chopra's..). The new age creatives don't have sponsors who can relate to the way they want to a tell story or the theme of the stories that they want to tell.

It is not very unlike tech funding situation.

The Indian movie industry is perhaps where tech industry and funding was half century ago. The VCs of that era probably had very specific non-risky areas that they wanted to invest in and there was no way to get funding if you had an idea which was way beyond their comprehension or comfort zone.

Netflix with their war-chest, openness and brand equity has a true opportunity to steamroll the existing archaic business practices which probably hasn't evolved over last 100 years.
