This somehow reminds me of an interesting tidbit in an old paper about the architecture of natural multi-agent systems such as ant colonies. Basically the resilience and reliability of the overall system is a result of agents not being "afraid" to fail. When ants look out for food, there is a chance a number of ants gets lost and starves; on the other hand, when a single ant finds a food source, the whole colony benefits from it. [1] Some VC firms operate in a similar way, if you think about it.

Yes, they are. i would be the unitary vector in the horizontal direction, x, and j in the vertical one, y.

In fact, geometric algebras are very general, and the one I briefly sketched is not the only possible interpretation. If you are interested, you can find many good introductions online, directed at different audiences. You can also search for the term "Clifford algebras" if you are interested in a more formal approach.
Sure, JavaScript uses floats for everything. But the article seems to be actually mostly about real numbers: "The real numbers, along with our conventional notion of addition and multiplication, form a field." (Ignoring the fact that there are finite fields that are properly closed under all operations)

I would like to add that a true libertarian would be aghast at the thought of a state bailing out private ventures, especially without assimilating them, no matter how big or small.

Most people don’t dive deep into ideologies. They stay in the surface and end up believing whatever the media outlet expresses as a “truth widely acknowledged”.

It is. You lose the 'works anywhere' aspect of a web application, and the reasonable security policies of a modern browser executing the code in question.

One of the strengths of a static site generator is that the content part is (usually) just flat files - you can edit them in basically anything.

I find these modern artifacts fascinating, and a great example of how poorly we communicate {in,about} code. Not that either Wikipedia or RC is a reliable source of quality, but there's plenty a critical eye could object to in both pages :-).

Also a great example of how pseudocode can muddy the waters: that given by WP (and quoted by RC) strongly suggests that the list must be reversed as a distinct step, which seems to have coloured some of the RC examples. Of course, in some languages doing so would be idiomatic .. while in others traversing the list in reverse would be, and in others constructing it tail-first. Same with mapping the function and then filtering for overflow, which seems at odds with the pseudocode.

Also, specifics of the output are entirely lost along the way.

law reaches businesses that collect personal information from 50,000-plus consumers per year, regardless of revenue

As it should. Why are they collecting it in the first place? The requirement is not onerous; simply refrain from actively collecting data that you don’t actually need. That’s it.

Just think of data as a liability rather than an asset and everything else comes naturally.
“go mod why” sounds shockingly close to “Oh god why”. I’d assume this is intentional, but it still strikes me as odd.
The guy goes on holiday from Russia to Greece and then after being arrested and extradition sought to the USA he's suddenly also wanted back in Russia on a minor charge.

How suspicious is that?
I like Hayek's "planning" tool for distinguishing socialism. That is, does the ideology position the state as the planner of its citizens lives in one way or another? Socialism is the intervention of the state in its citizens lives be it healthcare, industry, moral rules, etc. From this view fascism is indeed socialism.

The alternative is liberalism or the absence of planning.
I think it’s this article, which I remember seeing here a few times: https://www.theguardian.com/science/2003/jul/03/research.sci...
It's weird that Wikipedia redirects mobiles from the non mobile version to the mobile version, but doesn't redirect the other way around.
Ideologies are not geometric proofs. Whatever you believe, whether it's socialism, communism, or in the Great Pumpkin, you have to live and work with other people. So you gotta compromise it. And it's not like the "pure" version is so awesome and every compromise is a failure. No. No pure version of anything has ever worked, so it's all hacks to one degree or another.

It's also fair that no country controls the world currency, has military supremacy, intervenes politicaly, economicaly and militarily all around the world, and basicaly bullies the rest of the world.

A more balanced world would be a better place. As it stands, I am of the impression that the weakness of the US regarding trade is the only factor that can balance the power ratios in the world.

It is extremely unfair to pick on the one matter were you are "losing" and pretend that it is morally imperative to fix it, without taking into account the whole picture.
A lot of the litter I see is thrown from cars. I can't imagine the people who throw cigarette butts and trash out of their car windows driving around to find a bin for a nugget.
It didn't take much to get on the list back then just checking out a copy of the Communist Manifesto from the public library was all it took to get on the list. A lot of writers who were simply voracious readers with no organizational connections to communists landed on the lists for their reading habits alone.
Yes, they were using bones of dead people to construct ritual objects. You do realize that actually killing someone for that purpose would be considered an insanely stupid act causing a rebirth in hell? And how on Earth this custom can explain the Chinese invasion and the atrocities committed until this day?

You know what life is in Tibet for Tibetans? The horrors are so great that once a while they prefer to publicly kill themselves, suffering a terrible death rather than going on like this. That's the sad reality of living under the Chinese rule. There were many things wrong in ancient Tibet, such as feudal fights, the abuse of power by the central government and so on, but nothing of this justifies the invasion and the current treatment of Tibetans by the Chinese.
One core idea of fascism is that in unity lies strength. The main symbol of this is the faces, where the rods are made stronger by being made together. This idea is not incompatible with socialism, on the contrary. Now of course there's the flip side, which excludes everyone who are not in the group. Stuff like Jews are not true Germans or something. That side I would say is indeed incompatible with socialism.

But try for a moment to see it from a fascist's perspective. Who they care about, really? It's easy to only see one's peers, and not so hard to feel contempt towards outsiders. I bet that from the inside, fascism can easily feel socialist. A current example I think would be some anti-fascist groups, which despite their stated goals can be pretty fascist.
In the US, the word “socialism” seems to be confused with ”communism” like they were exchangeable

Marx and Engels used them interchangeably too, so you can see where the confusion would arise.

You might be surprised, if you read them, just how little they had to say about how it would all actually work. There’s no detailed blueprint for a communist utopia anywhere in their writing. Mainly they just critique the class system - and you can see that the observations they made were often quite accurate even in today’s world of zero-hours contracts and the gig economy. I’m pretty capitalist myself, but some of this is taking it too far.
ABQ.

It's Denver with better weather and far lower levels of congestion and cost of living.

Someone was crowing about a mortgage of $2000/mo. for a 2000sf condo. That'd be about $1200/mo. here, plus it would be freestanding and come with a yard.

Airport is surprisingly versatile, with daily nonstops to all your favorites.

The mountains are every bit as impressive as Denver's, but half as far away a drive, half as crowded, and we have great river trails too. You will not find a more impressive array of history, culture, and food in this country.

You can breathe here, with zero mold allergens, and thin dry air that takes a weight off your spirit. Since the cost of living here is so low, you can be poor here and feel rich. In Silicon Valley, you have to be very rich to not feel very poor. Even then, I'm not convinced even a multibillionaire out there feels as rich as I do here.

There's a reason they call it a sunny disposition, and while other areas in the mountain west tie ABQ for sunny days, nobody really beats it.

We have two Intel fabs, AFRL, two other national labs, plus a number of smaller commercial companies, but our industrial base is stagnating and slightly shrinking. Some talent is here, they work for peanuts, and ready to come on board without breaking six figures.

To an extent beyond most of the others on this list, NM is willing to shell out in terms of leases, build-to-suit, training, and tax incentives, especially for good-quality high-paying jobs. And 30-50 new jobs is not too small for us to notice or care.

It's also a very controversial theme park that promotes an extremely religious version of history (cf. in French, the French Wikipedia article https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puy_du_Fou#Controverses - and this blog post about the bizarre revisionism of every attaction https://culturespub.wordpress.com/2010/09/02/le-puy-du-fou-c...).

The owners of the park are also working with ultraorthodox oligarch Konstantin Malofeev to create similar parks in Russia and Crimea (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konstantin_Malofeev).

>He has teamed with a French developer to build two “Tsargrad” theme parks in Crimea that will present a family-friendly recounting of Russian history. He’s also developing Tsargrad TV, a cable network—for now it’s just a YouTube channel—that will provide a conservative Orthodox perspective on the news. “We want to build up [a network based on] Orthodox principles the way Fox News was built,” he says. “We want to show the news in the way that Orthodox people, who are 70 to 80 percent of the population, see it.” (Jack Hanick, a former Fox News employee, will be a producer for the network.) I ask if Russia’s existing TV networks aren’t conservative enough. “Aren’t Orthodox enough,” he counters.

>But his goals go beyond making Russia a more religious society. A self-described monarchist, he favors a full return of the Russian Empire, including the restoration of the czar. “Monarchies have been alive in history for thousands of years,” he says. “Republics, just for several centuries, yet we assume that monarchies belong to the past and republics to the future.” He points out that seven of the 10 wealthiest countries in the world are monarchies.

I absolutely _love_ Reshift. I've used it for years now, ever since I really strained my eyes with working in terrible lighting for too long in a strange situation awhile back... It helps reduce my eye strain dramatically-- I set it at 4000k and also have a smart bulb also set at 4000k for when I work at night. Absolutely awesome program; eye-saver; I'd love to personally thank the author some day.
By that definition, many monarchies would be "socialist" (E.g. the German Empire, which created many of the social security systems in Germany, specifically to avoid socialism rising). That sounds like a pretty massive re-definition of the term to allow pushing it into a one-dimensional scale, especially in the context of the time where the Nazis choose their label.
This is one of those reasons why I hope Wayland doesn't take over too fast. I know it is awesome, and new, and has tons of benefits, but there are a few things that I couldn't live without that it doesn't have :(

Under the “US empire” the world has had more progress and less conflict than ever before.
That's not true. C++ does define an implicit conversion from bool to int:

And C has a boolean type as of C99.
As someone who was born in Soviet Union, I am not surprised at all. A former world super-power will do whatever in can to prevent its citizen from getting into the hands of USA authorities. Especially, if the citizen in question has been working for Russian mafia, which has been known to have close ties to country's government officials. It's very likely he would be released soon after reaching Russia and then killed by something staged as a suicide, because the risk of him opening his mouth is too high.
Interesting that this happens after Monsanto has been acquired by an EU company. How long have cases like this one been dismissed?

Are there any examples of US court rulings against big American companies with comparable foreign competitors? I mean, rulings affecting only the American company? (putting it at a disadvantage)

The US is becoming a risky market for foreign enterprises, since it has become extremely politicized, like so many corrupt countries around the world.
Or you could read the books, which explain the design and implementation in detail. (-:
Central banks can never be held accountable for anything. In most cases, they cannot even be audited.
From communist viewpoint socialism is an intermediate stage before achieving communism. And in Soviet Union propaganda both terms were used interchangeably to describe their side in the Cold War. And many self-described socialists in the West sympathised strongly with Soviets (even not being friendly with hardcore Stalinism), believing the USSR, and its satellites are the counterweight and alternative to the capitalist alliance united around the US.

So there's no mistake, it's just a historical practice.
I am only a hobby programmer, but have some observations based on the developers who I have met at various meetups and other gatherings.

1 There is probably a wider range of ability in software developing than in many other fields.

2 Other fields have better methods of filtering the good performers to the good employers.

Hence the problem of mismatched employers and developers.
Unique Bathroom Pedestal Sinks Reviews: The Today’s Best Designs
A pure metal is never 100% simply because that's practically impossible. Yet the term is perfectly correct when used in the right context. Now that you know it's context dependent you can maybe stop insisting it's wrong.

Pure or ultrapure simply mean different and very clearly defined levels of purity for every field they are used in. Including some that stretch your concept of pure, like pure quantum states. Please don't try to redefine it.

You're going into deeper and deeper mud while trying to walk out clean from this.

How do you justify that despite the blockchain being decentralized - that at any time, a dozen different people could immediately or long term ruin or muck with bitcoin’s policies and directions?

I’ll also at this time point out it’s a commodity in effect, not a currency really, but different topic.

Your argument seems to be the idealized “it’s open and no one owns it man” and not the reality that the only part that’s “free” is the mathy database part.
Je viens de lire la partie de l’article cité et ça a surtout l’air d’être une controverse lancée par des universitaires de gauche qui voient du politique partout et qui ne supportent pas qu’on puisse proposer une vision différente de la leur. En outre, il ne faut pas oublier que c’est assez courant en France que quand quelque chose a du succès, il faut le critiquer...

Je me rappelle y avoir été quand j’étais gosse, et les spectacles étaient fantastiques. Et en tant qu’enfant ce qui intéresse ce sont les épées et les combats, pas un hypothétique sous-texte cryto-contre-révolutionnaire. Les adultes eux peuvent (et devraient) se renseigner eux même sur la période, l’histoire de France et même du monde, qui est d’ailleurs traitée de façon de plus en plus partiale à l’école (de la république).

I guess no one told the soviet union about their antisemitism being incompatible with their ideology.

Edit: heck, ask that to the Americans. Inequality in your homeland is rampant. What you call American Empire is known also by Globalization, and it seems that is not very popular in the US right now.

Anyway, that decission is not for the US to make, and I reckon the whole world would prefer a more balanced situation.

> These things are conventions, exactly the same as announcing that x^-n = 1/x^n and that x^0 = 0.

The convention that x^0 = 1 (including 0^0 = 1) is genuinely useful because it removes a case distinction from lots of combinatorial formulas. Hence this: http://tinyurl.com/zeropowerzero

x^0 = 0 seems to me to be - I won't say "wrong" because you're free to define things the way you like - in general less useful than x^0 = 1.

For similar reasons, (0 * log 0) = 0 makes sense when computing entropies and stuff in certain machine learning applications. This one can also be justified as the limit of x * log(x) as x -> 0 is 0, but I've seen at least one person just trying to define "log 0 = 0" which I consider less elegant; in the kind of application where this convention is useful, you'll rarely if ever see a log 0 that's not multiplied by a plain 0.

Where it gets really weird is when you do KL divergence and can end up with 0 * log (0/0), but again you can save a case distinction by just declaring this to be 0. The elegant way to do this is to define d(p, q) = p * log(p/q) when p, q != 0 and 0 otherwise. In this particular application, just going with 1/0 = 0 seems to work fine in practice as in a term q * log(q/0) you can rewrite the whole thing by flipping the sign to get 0 * log(0/q) in that term, which we have already declared to be 0 (whether or not q is 0 itself).

In this case it's not a bug in the code, it's being able to handle probability distributions with mass 0 on some points at the level of arithmetic rather than as a special case in the formula.

Far from ideal, but if you really want to give it a try you can use the accessibility features on your OS. If you're using a Mac you can go to preferences, accessibility, display, and tick invert colors. Grayscale is also good.

I recently used this feature in a flight for the opposite situation. I was trying to learn go in the go playground but their editor only offers a light theme. After a couple of hours my eyes got tired and I was able to continue thanks to this accessibility feature.

> Onlookers reading these comments probably think those of us harping on this point are anal pedants with a mathematical stick up our ass. But this thread is increasingly illustrating my central point, which is that the author shouldn't have tried to justify numerical operation definitions in a programming language using field axioms of all things.

You can't use your own stubbornness to justify itself.

I'm waiting for you to justify your claim that this extension to division breaks any of the field axioms. pron even made you a nice list of them.

Just name one equation/theorem that the new axiom would break.

I'm completely open to being convinced! But so far you've only given arguments about giving a multiplicative inverse to zero. Everyone agrees on that. It's the wrong argument.
