Elon mentioned on the Q2 conference call yesterday that specific demo is easily doable.

He also added that it would be sort of cheating, because that's a very defined route and he prefers it to be able to be much more dynamic. i.e. pick any two US cites and the car will drive you there.
Maybe the federal government should get out of the loan business and make it legal to declare bankruptcy to escape student loan debt. Colleges have every incentive to enroll as many students as possible and charge whatever they want because the loans are guaranteed by wage garnishment.

This draws parallels to the easy credit that was extended in the last housing collapse to people that shouldn't had mortgages for houses they can't afford in the first place.
At what cost might he earn more money? He loses socioeconomic status by being a landscaper, so his value in the dating market drops. He sacrifices health by being out in the sun all the time, inhaling fuel, increased risk of injury from driving around everywhere. Maybe he can have his own business someday, and have others do the work, but is he wise to play those odds if he also has a decent chance at becoming a doctor/lawyer/engineer/trader/banker?
There's definitely another level of wealth there for the very few. Weird thought one day while dreaming, if I somehow managed to get a job where I cleared $1 million a week, it would still take me over 1500 years to attain the net worth of Warren Buffet. If I managed to up that and clear $1 million a day, I still wouldn't manage in my lifetime (224 years). That to me put in perspective the insanity of the wealth of the very rich.
Your mileage may vary. Sometimes I like to write everything down, number by number, symbol by symbol, but oftentimes I prefer to talk to the teacher about what he's writing to understand it better but keep it for future reference.

Writing down aids memory, but not understanding in my experience.

In complex topics like discrete mathematics it's been a lifesaver to me.
Everyone talks about Apple as the best possible investment, but an investment in XEM or XRP (Nem or Ripple or Stellar Lumens) in early 2017 surpassed all of Apple in its 30 year history.

My money is on Google, Facebook or Amazon eventually surpassing Apple though
It's legal to find ways to reduce your tax burden.
If the local government is subsidizing them, then if they move to a different place, they lose the subsidy.
The VOC basically owned the entirety of trade in SEA. It's not hard to imagine a valuation of 7 trillion when they had a monopoly of an entire continent's worth of trade (spices!) for two centuries.
NT has a lot of VMS roots.
Saying that someone should lose all support, as the person I was responding to suggested, just for doing one of the normal human acts is entirely unreasonable.
>I wonder, why is it NonZeroU8, NonZeroU16, etc instead of something like NonZero<u8>, NonZero<u16>, etc?

The RFC covers this. https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/2307-conc... Also see the RFC discussion at https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2307

Basically the generic NonZero already existed, but it's hard to express safely when used with arbitrary user types.

>In theory, in the future, when Rust supports constants as template arguments, one might even add a const argument, the value that should be used as "null". E.g. if my u8 never reaches 255, I could use something like Never<u8, 255>.

This requires const generics, so it could happen when they're implemented. (This is also mentioned in the RFC discussion.)

I suppose that's probably just a consequence of a good economy right? What's interesting is how fast the drop is, when you don't even see a drop between 2000 and 2008 where I would expect one.
I live in Europe. In Poland specifically.

I do not mean a final note, just a standard one. Like you may get for a test or homework.
So in your classifications the "I don’t care what stuff costs in restaurants" and " I don’t care what a vacation costs" would fall into the same category? To me being able to afford living expenses with a little left over would likely qualify as middle, not having to care about restaurant cost would qualify as upper-middle, and not caring about vacation cost would be upper. There's a pretty huge gap between being able to drop $1000 at a restaurant, and people able to spend tens, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars on a vacation.
The news can do better, I'm sure we can all agree, but let's not go over the top on either side. I doubt GP is QAnon and doubt all news media makes brain juice drip out of your ears.
I appreciate how you state that investing has become an internal part of personal finance. I agree with you, but unfortunately nobody taught us this where I am from.
Charge more for the electricity. Take the profit and cut a check to the productive companies. Problem solved.
LoopBack Adopts Module LTS Policy
Sometimes it is a network error, or a hardware error, but at the end of the day, you can't just point at that and blame it, you've got to try to work around it, or at least fail in a way that looks like you tried and point out what the source of the issue is. It feels like playing whackamole sometimes though.
I'm working on a web portal for free live music events in my city, and recording a gig guide each week for broadcast on a local internet radio station.
I don't know how old you are, but my bet is: its an age thing.

Actually I miss the web from 1999-2004 for the exact same reasons you do, and 2008 was already way downhill for me. But when I think about it a bit more carefully... How old was I at the time? 14-19... An age where almost everything is exciting and new: music, parties, friends, philosophy, technology you name it. I can easily apply this sentiment to most categories of interest during this time period.

I wonder if in 15 years from now, the people around 30 will rumble about how wonderful it was back then, when it was all the rage to be on Instagram etc. and how easy it was to connect to people, and how quickly you could organize events via social media.
Dave Cutler and his team of OS designers from DEC integrated with Microsoft software engineers to create the NT kernel. Cutler was a crucial figure in DEC, but was waysided by management so he jumped ship, and built the design he wanted to build at DEC (but never got management buy-in for) at Microsoft. All outlined in the book Show Stopper! THE BREAKNECK RACE TO CREATE WINDOWS NT AND THE NEXT GENERATION AT MICROSOFT

Also, if you took a peek at his wikipedia entry, the guy is behind almost every large MSFT OS related initiative in the last few decades: NT, Azure, XBox hypervisor.

We used to have NonZero<T>, but changed it https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/b728bf68703f681ef0e42...

The real motivation is

> With NonNull covering pointers, the remaining use cases for NonZero are integers.

It's unclear how extensible we truly want this to be, and so we decided to go with the concrete types. In the worst case, we'd eventually re-introduce some sort of NonZero<T>, and deprecate these types. This was deemed worth it to let people use this important feature on stable, rather than waiting and seeing if we ever decide to do otherwise.

> For the intelligent & motivated, there will be unnecessary boredom during downtime/study hall, potential hatred for learning/school, and other negative effects.

Boredom is a fact of life, and learning to accept it without forcing yourself to depend on a smartphone is an underrated skill.

> Any widespread banning of freedoms or ignorance of new technologies will have outsized negative consequences.

This argument does not really apply completely to children. And it is not ignorance; they're free to use their phones as they please, after class is done.

I agree with many posters here: phones have been designed explicitly to rob you of your attention span. The amount of willpower and self understanding to deal with that healthily is far more than what most children can muster.
Good for it. Becoming a trillion dollar company selling quality products people love. Not data mining everything about your life and using it for advertising (Google), ruthlessly destroying competition (Microsoft), or destroying the environment (Exxon). How old fashioned.
Agreed, I spend about 95% of my earnings every month and dont worry about any of these. I live a privileged life yet I have only accumulated $80,000 in assets over the years which puts me in the lowest 40 to 59th percentile and below the average americans net worth of 100k.
> you are comparing now not 1 iteration with 16 iteration

GCC made code with zero iterations, it unrolled the complete inner loop and produced 16 scalar add instructions.

MSVC made code with two iterations, each iteration containing two paddd SSE2 instructions, which stand for _mm_add_epi32.

> Turn off vectorization of code in msvc

I can’t. When I try, the compiler says “Command line warning D9002: ignoring unknown option '/arch:IA32'”

SSE2 is a requirement for AMD64 CPUs, that’s why the MS compiler doesn’t support scalar code anymore. And the data size is too large for 32 bit builds, it’s not enough address space for a 8GB vector.
If climate skeptics are right, we will have only hastened the inevitable transition away from fossil fuels - there's only enough coal, oil and gas in the ground to last us another century, give or take.

If climate skeptics are wrong, millions of people will die due to avoidable natural disasters and hundreds of millions will become climate refugees.

Those are our choices - do the thing we need to do anyway, or put it off until later and risk catastrophe.

Asking whether or not climate change is "real" is entirely the wrong question. It's always the wrong question. We need to ask what the probability is, how wide the error bars are and what the effect size will be across the range of possible outcomes. Even if our predictions are wrong by a couple of orders of magnitude, reducing our carbon emissions is +EV. Doing something now is obviously the best course of action, because you avert a high-probability and high-magnitude loss at a relatively low marginal cost.
Collision aside, our insurance costs for liability / injury are lower for our 2017 Tesla than our 2014 Toyota.
"It's scary when a company with chronic implementation issues decides to take on a hard problem that is way outside its core competency."

This seems like the biography of Elon Musk's companies. He gets a crazy hard problem that people say he and his companies can not do, then he tries to implement it, often falling well behind and well short of the goalposts due to lack of foresight and overambitious scheduling. There were naysayers the whole way, including just as loud as there are now if not louder, and yet his companies' achievements and networth continue to climb.
I'd like to mention that along those lines specifically, a lot of people have talked about NLL in terms of "the borrow checker accepts more of my code", but it also produces way better errors. See the "Diagnostics" section of http://smallcultfollowing.com/babysteps/blog/2018/06/15/mir-... for an example that I ran into in real code. (It's niko's blog but I supplied him with this example)
When was that? The stock has split 4 times so a bit hard to calculate his return
>“Apple’s $1 trillion cap is equal to about 5 percent of the total gross domestic product of the United States in 2018,” said David Kass, professor of finance at the University of Maryland. “That puts this company in perspective.”

The comparison would be Apple net income (~$50B) vs. GDP, not market cap (which has units of USD) vs. GDP (which has units of USD per year).
This is what I tell everyone when they kick themselves for not buying BTC when it was $0.25.

You would have sold them the second they hit $1.00. The only people I know who got rich off BTC are those who found an old wallet on an old drive in their garage.
What is the amount of money transferred per TW/h for each system?
I fully share that opinion. I loved Keybase for its simplicity: It was a way to verify keys based on social media accounts and thus a more practical alternative to the web of trust. The client was optional, I could track someone by using bash and curl, and I kind of managed to understand how it works.

Nowadays unfortunately it's a complex system of key management, account authentication, chat, file encryption, and more. I have no way to fully understand that system.

Simplicity is an under-appreciated feature.
This is petty and time-consuming.
Can CPU and memory limits be enforced? If so, how is it done?
I got the impression that Hy is stagnating. They removed 'let' in the recent releases (it's hard to imagine Lisp without 'let'). Also there is no support for async, which is pretty important for modern Python IMO.
Meet a scientist whose songs bring comfort
It’s interesting the categories the author chose, as I had a similar tone with my mother when I finally started making good money.

I grew up in a divorced household. On one side I had a father and step mother who made large amounts of cash in a relatively inexpensive area. They vacationed regularly to Hawaii and Las Vegas, and prioritized spending money on themselves.

My mother and step father combined to earn around $30k, were hyper frugal, and stressed about every expense. Any expense whatsoever was agony, and they made sure my sister and I understood their inability to buy things on a whim.

So, as I bounced between houses each week, I yo-yo’d between borderline poverty (although they made it work) and quite high wealth.

When I hit my mid to late 20s, my wife and I hit a point where we had no debt. Could go out anytime. Could rent any reasonable home in our area (couldn’t buy because we didn’t have that kind of down payment money), and traveled a few times a year throughout the world. When I contrasted this against how I felt after undergrad, while in grad school, where I was heavy in debt, had no car, and felt constant financial stress, it’s remarkable.

As I’ve continued to grow older, I’ve now come to realize it wasn’t the travel, eating out, or the things I could buy that helped me to be less stressed, it was the lack of burden of worrying about how I would pay for X, Y, or Z. I make way less money now as I run my own startup, don’t go out that much as I do all the cooking, don’t travel that much because we can’t afford it, yet I carry the same lack of stress and worry as I did years back.

Part of why I’d like to see universal, free at the point of delivery, health care in the United States is for this very reason. I’ve first hand experienced and witnessed the choice of not going to get needed medical care because of the financial burden. UBI is still highly experimental, and many other wealth normalization techniques have severe downsides that potentially outweigh the benefits; however, universal health care has enough clear data points of success in the rest of the world, from my vantage point, that maybe that can be the “level 0” of wealth in the United States.

It’s sad that dang believes Jobs’ daughter’s voice doesn’t matter and doesn’t contain “actual information”. I guess women’s speech isn’t welcome.
Ok, but proof of stake is a security model. So what you're claiming is not just that markets are irrational, but that thieves can steal all this money, and are just choosing not to. Since people are constantly stealing money in the crypto world, I find that pretty hard to believe.
This is my favorite example of this overreach...

In hand-wavy terms... in this case the commerce clause was used to prevent a farmer from growing wheat on his own land for use in feeding his own livestock. The federal government had established limits on wheat production at the time as part of the "New Deal".
Apple has become the world's first public company to be worth $1 trillion
Those are all unmaintained projects. pyxl4/pyxl4 and Dropbox/pyxl haven't been in a long time and pyxl4 says gvanrossum/pyxl3 is unmaintained and while gvanrossum/pyxl3 was updated a month ago, it was just the README. The code hasn't been updated in over two years.
I ordered a Tesla Model 3 yesterday. When I see the "Full Self-Driving Capability" checkbox at checkout time (it's an option you can pay $3,000 for right now) I just have zero confidence that they can deliver on this. Almost every other aspect of the car is fantastic. But Tesla's delusions about achieving full self-driving with their current approach just make me lose some respect for them. It makes me worried that they might be deluded about other things too.

I use the word "deluded" above realizing that I might be completely wrong. If they pull it off I'll eat crow and give them props. But I just don't see it happening.
Let's put it this way. According to Maddison,

https://www.rug.nl/ggdc/historicaldevelopment/maddison/relea...

The entire world's GDP in 1700 was $371 Billion (1990 International Dollars). That would mean the VOC's value then was ~10x the global GDP, which I find hard to believe.

Or if that doesn't convince you, consider the world population in 1700 was 700 million people. That would mean the Dutch Indies Company's value per person is $10,000!
the tax system should be made simpler... no loopholes (I know it is probably not easy to accomplish, but worth a try) ... because middle class can't afford to avoid taxes like the rich does it.
There is also not caring about the cost of a restaurant on the odd occasion and not caring about the cost of a restaurant for breakfast lunch and dinner every day.
That's tax they might generate, but most of that is not tax paid by Apple. Consumers pay sales tax and duties go right into the price of the products, employees pay income tax...

> Apple Inc., which is based in California, set up two companies in Ireland: Apple Sales International and Apple Operations Europe. According to the European Commission, these companies had no employees or real offices but still realized large profits. Apple paid virtually no tax to Ireland, or to any country, on these profits because of a former law in Ireland. In the last year that the law was in effect, 2015, Apple Sales International paid just 0.005% tax, according to the commission.

> When Apple sold iPhones, iPads, and Macs in an EU single-market nation, such as France, the commission said Apple would funnel the profits from France to Ireland and would not pay tax in either country.
That has been accounted for already. Before the buyback, the stock would have had to reach $203, after the buyback, the stock needs to reach $207.

I think his point is that you aren't backing up the statement that the chips are unverified. Nor does your statement that they are built for approximate workloads imply that the chips are unverified or cutting corners.
these minority viewpoints don't need to be given prominence, but I think they should certainly be given the right to exist and to be documented. From my perspective, even the most egregious views should be aired against their subject of interest, for numerous reasons:

- if they are badly argued ideas they will stand in stark contrast to well supported ideas, naturally diffusing the benefit that conspiracy theories often gain from being "banned" in the style of "what they don't want you to know"-type arguments.

- The best way to critique an idea into the ground is to understand it better than its advocates.

- Even a bad idea can raise questions of good ideas, in the same vein as getting to the right answer through the wrong reasoning. Poking holes in our best ideas forces innovation.

- More awareness of the kind of ideas that exist in the world is, in my opinion, never a bad thing.

- An outlier opinion can still be right. Obviously theories like flat earth don't fall into this category, but quantum mechanics and heliocentrism once did.
If you made $52M a year, with 5% growth per year in some super conservative investment, you'd have Warren Buffet's wealth in 87 years

If you got 10% it would be 50 years

Warren Buffet is definitely impressive, but compounding capital is a huge benefit

(Ok ok I ignored taxes, inflation blah blah)

Edit: just because this is fun: at $365M a year, you get WB wealth in 50 years at 5% and 32 years at 10%

Edit2: if you take Berkshire Hathaway's historical annualized return (20.8%), compounded quarterly, starting with $52M and no additional capital after that, you get WB wealth in 36 years.

Now that users can switch out the global allocator, the next step may be to change the default allocator for Rust programs from jemalloc (which, note, is only the default on some platforms) to the system allocator. This has been blocked on stable global allocator support in order to make sure that users who find that jemalloc is superior for their program have a recourse to avoid performance regressions; ideally switching to jemalloc (or tcmalloc, etc.) should be well-facilitated by Crates.io.

As for the rationale behind moving away from jemalloc as a default, the tracking issue is here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/36963 (TL;DR: lower maintenance burden, easier cross-compilation, smaller binaries, better system integration (including packaging), and the ability to use Valgrind).
I wish there were data that distinguished between top 1% by income and top 1% by wealth. Income inequality may be worth targeting in itself, but if the turnover of top-1% income earners is high it doesn't matter as much as if it's fixed. Similarly, if wealth is not being maintained generation after generation then concentration is not as important either.
