This is a favorite of mine and got me through some tough days in undergrad. I'm no longer a young man and I don't really pursue mathematics anymore, but it was a good reminder of a good days.

Thanks for posting :)
That's an absurd statement. There are plenty of "real artists" that want to make a living with their work. You can't pay your bills with exposure.
Luxury and Soviet Era went together very well indeed for Party VIPs. This would have been a prime example when it was new.
The old Terminal is really small, but the new terminal is not that much bigger. Having flowed out of both I don't think the size is the problem. The problem is lack of desire to invest (probably justifird financially) in presercing the building.
Why wouldn't writing an allocator class be enough for mmap?
I've heard similar reports. Hoovers (vacuum cleaners) mean fitted carpets rather than a rug you take out and shake off, or mopped floors, so time savings get eaten up. But "luxury" levels increase.

I lived in Santa Fe when Meow Wolf started becoming an mass attraction. It is, without a doubt, the most fun I've had at an art venue. The story and experience is so thoughtfully and creatively presented, that you feel like you're in some kind of warped interactive Disney space exhibit. There's endless little touches and Knick-knacks to keep you saying "oh wow, what _is_ this exactly?"

Concerts are held there too, which can be incredibly wild. I saw an underground rap show there once. At the end of the show, the rapper encouraged a mosh-pit, ripped off his shirt, dumped an entire jar of honey on himself, then jumped into the crowd to join the mosh, which absolutely erupted.

The Meow Wolf team uses many microcontrollers, arduinos, RPis, etc. to control various lights, doors, action/reaction events. On the second floor of the "House", there's an office computer setup with a version of Ubuntu, which is delightful every time I see it.
I haven't found any videos online that successfully conveys the beauty of this place.

Santa Fe is largely white, Spanish and Mexican, with a heavy emphasis on artistic attractions for seasonal tourists. It also features a large older population, and lacks very many fun and affordable things for young people to do. Albuquerque is a fairly undesirable City, and although the Sandia mountains and northern New Mexico are very beautiful and peaceful, there's still a lack in activity. On the other hand, the desert EDM rave scene is alive and well.

I highly recommend both Meow Wolf and Santa Fe, for someone traveling through.
But offset of UTC for TAI is like 37 seconds or something poxy like that. Nobody cares about this, the sun moves too slowly for that to make any difference.

There's been talk of setting UTC=TAI for quite a long time and I think it'd make sense. It'd take so long for TAI to drift from the actual rising and setting of the sun that we'd probably all have standardised on Swatch Beats by then anyway.

The Warsaw Pact was an alliance of nominally-independent states. They all relied on the USSR in one way or another, but they had their internal dynamics and cultural differences. Their architectural efforts were often manneristic towards Soviet styles, rather than original.
For those interested, there is an excellent Youtube playlist by sentdex that covers building a Python AI to play StarCraft II. He's up to 17 videos so far and it's a fun way to learn/practice neural networks.

I would say both, to some extent. It appears that climate change is driving more extreme weather events such as hurricanes. And when natural disasters do occur, it's a lot easier to report on them when people almost anywhere on the planet can provide a video of it.

I suspect the effect of natural disasters is also greater because of more people. A larger global population means more people are likely to be in the vicinity of natural phenomena, and higher population density means more people can potentially get into trouble at one time.
Or a runtime equivalent, e.g. the java.time package gets this stuff right.
It is technically still part of the airport, so it's private property and you can't enter there.

Not everyone gets to write new things :) There's a ton of existing codebases where there's no appetite for a rewrite from scratch, but some incremental improvements can be tolerated.

Edtech Startups That Are Changing the Education Game
> Left-wing politics is about liberalism and equality, yes?

No. Not in either of the sensed “liberalism” is currently used. Equality, yes, in a manner particularly opposed to the structural inequities of capitalism, but not liberalism, which is either about capitalism or a viewpoint which seeks to maintain capitalism a while moderating certain inequities within it, depending on which of th current usages of “liberalism” you refer to.

> I believe what you meant was as a radical progressive

“Radical progressive” is a phrase used in US politics go refer to a certain range of left-wing positions.

> That liberalism is associated with progressivism

It's not, though one of the senses of liberalism is adjacent to progressivism.

> seems to take away from progressive right-wingers

While the term “progressive right-wingers” may not be
nonsensical in some historical usages of “progressive”, it is simply oxymoronic in the current usage.

> which may believe in the inherent inequality of certain inevitable social structures, but work to abolish or reform broken regulation.

You seem to be using “progressive” as simply anyone who seeks change from the status quo to realize their political values, which is a novel use.

The grandparent used “radical leftist” correctly.
> LoL on the other hand has about 500 champions (give or take)

LoL has 141 champions.
Still significantly higher than Dota's 116.

A common note I hear when people discuss open AI playing dota is that it uses pre-made matchups, which reduces the number of matchups considerably.

Would it be that difficult to have the AI play the picking stage?
Compared to the complexity of the decisions you have to make during the game, the picks are straightforward - especially if you have performance data on matchups.

The number of practice games the AI would have to play to learn to handle all the heroes goes up drastically, but that's only a matter of time.
Allowing for variable angular resolution, and holding the device closer than 300mm, seems to allow plenty of room where you _would_ notice the different. Further, 1080p scaled to 720p is probably going to look better than bit-starved 720p, even if the resolution isn't directly a factor.
One of my friend pretend that we - software engineers - should work as mechanical engineers. They have a documented, standardized, and limited set of screws, nuts, ... and they build anything with it. This allow to develop CAD tool to assemble, verify, simulate, ...
On our side, we have thousands of implementations of basic SW blocks (fifo, mutex, ...), or even "bigger" concepts (server, reader/writer, state-machine ...).
What do you think ?
I think I mostly accept anything that comes my way, except for ones that have obvious, non-blocking fixes.

People tell me to be more critical, but there’s no point in holding everything up because someone wrote a triple nested ternary operator.

It’s icky, but they, or someone else, will fix it the next time they come across that piece of code. That’s why we have tests.

I am sure there is a lot of great science, data, and tons of work by a lot of people behind this video. But I am having a hard time shaking the thought "How could they possibly know that".

Just mind blowing that it could recreate all that movement. Imperfect as to the details, sure.

Thank you for sharing.
> I don’t think they qualify as memes to be honest. For a lot of people “meme” is synonymous with just “funny picture” it seems, but a real meme is something more than just a funny picture.

Agreed.

> it needs to be adopted and adapted by

I don't think you get to target your pedantism quite so tightly.

A meme before about 2005 was "an idea, behavior, style, or usage that spreads from person to person within a culture" (m-w.com).

The "image macro" meaning (meme-ing?) with adaptation is a very recent interpretation (lolcats and icanhazcheezburger?), and as you said above, "a lot of people" don't necessarily even think of "meme" that way.
PyLisp: Lisp in Just Over 100 Lines of Python
I think the point is: the problem might be more deep-seated than capitalism. If it were not possible to find this problem in any other societal system, then you could make a convincing argument that it might be exclusive to capitalism. But this is not the case. Other systems have been tried. Regardless of how you feel about these alternative systems, they were considerably different from capitalism and the problem occured there as well.
Just to clarify, I wasn't criticising sqlite, I was criticising the idea of judging their code quality "for this reason alone!" - ie that they have so much test code vs implementation.

I am not sure about Rust causing this. I think the safety has long been a goal of any C++ developer, particularly with large projects.

I mean, I've touched or looked at rust yet safe C++ is very very high on my list of "important things" and amongst my C++ developer colleagues, none of which have looked at Rust either.
SQlite is very high quality software, but they use DO-178b "inspired" testing process. As far as I know they don't have version of software that is or can be used in safety critical parts despite their boasting.

They say in their site that:

> Airbus confirms that SQLite is being used in the flight software for the A350 XWB family of aircraft.

Flight software does not imply safety critical parts of avionics. It can be the entertainment system or some logging that is not critical.
It’s at least somewhat scalable because he can simply split up the hashes to n different machines. So if one client blocked then he would just add more clients that each correspond to different hashes.
What do you think about the GHC sources in comparison?
That was an incredibly simple and effective explanation:

>Imagine a plate of fruit-filled gelatin dessert. Tunnels are like the pieces of fruit at the base of the gelatin, while above-ground structures are like the fruit toward the top. If you shake the plate, the movement becomes more exaggerated as it flows up from the base of the gelatin. In an earthquake, this translates to tunnel movement measured in inches, while the movement above ground might be measured in feet.

Just to complement my comment on Qt's event system, one place where it does play a central role in Qt's mental model is in Qt's concurrency framework. When covering that subject, the event loop and the different connection types are fundamental to understand how QObjects automagically communicate between themselves with Qt's signal-slots framework even when residing in different threads, or how Qt supports concurrency without requiring stuff to run on a separate thread.
>Arbitrarily assigning a number to a transaction and having everyone to agree to pick the smallest in the case of conflict is easier and works fine if your members are all trusted to not maliciously abuse that facet of the code.

This would be like a traditional eventually consistent distributed database (using total order to resolve conflicts).

And we might ask "why did those deploying private blockchains not just use that kind of thing?".

I'm not sure, but potential reasons are:

1. That kind of thing doesn't actually exist in a form that they can easily use, so they re-purposed existing, reasonably proven blockchain technology to achieve an equivalent functionality.

2. The parties don't completely trust each other so in fact malicious transactions can be crafted.

3. They don't trust their software to not craft malicious trasnsactions and the blockchain provides a neat way to filter them out.
> If you looked at their backgrounds, at least the CEO (OP) had previously started a fairly successful apparel company.

It was not successful. It was an unknown flop.

It was Bob, a professor of literature, who tried writing a tetris clone in college got to drawing pieces, who tried starting a video game company

This is not about diversity. It is about a vegan starting a butcher shop and getting accolades for waxing about reasons for a failure.

You are reading cleaned up source code that only compiles and runs on Linux. That's why it looks nice.

Many thanks to Bernd Kreimeier for taking the time to clean up the

deal with it again.
I was always surprised how little people care in Armenia about the old airport. Imagine you land in an airport that is nothing like all the other "conventional" airports with high ceilings and huge open areas. Wouldn't you want to just fly to Armenia if your experience starts in a museum like airport? Probably Armenians would not care too much to frequent in the old terminal, but it could be a nice turist attraction, no?
To add to this, there are a few other reasons why session/auth management is often a place where bespoke/home-rolled solutions are undesirable even at an early or low-volume stage. Not only are those areas tied to security (pretty hard to get a startup off the ground if a home-rolled session/auth system lets users access other users' data), but they're also among the first to break when subjected to unexpected traffic volume, and the hardest to replace.

That's not a "what if your startup becomes the next Facebook?!?!" suggestion of premature optimization; these types of breakages happen early. If you went from 10s of MB in your store and 100s of hits per second to 100s and 1000s respectively, it's possible that previously unexpected conditions would occur. I've seen cache and auth systems buckle under 10x load long before the real heavy lifters (RDBMS and backend communication points with other webservices) felt any strain at all--but only in places with esoteric or hand-built cache and auth systems.

Now, none of these may be problems for you, and I hope they're not. You may have coded with that type of growth in mind (and your mention of possible future sharding indicates you've thought about it--good on you). But the sheer ease with which Redis/Memcached/pick-a-KVS can be deployed and scaled, coupled with the difficulty of replacing all call-points to a session store (easy on a disciplined, low-developer-head-count stack; much harder on a stack that had to grow in traffic/LoC/engineers in a hurry--hooking into session management to track request state all over the place is something of a siren song), is, I suspect, an additional motivation besides "we have huge amounts of data/traffic" for the widespread popularizations of off-the-shelf key/value stores.
If by "in a few years" you mean "in a few decades at the earliest" then, maybe. But it's really hard to beat the capacity of a subway. Subways can transport north of thirty thousand people per hour. That's a lot of cars, even if you increase the occupancy from ~1 to four or five.
I said it because he does cryptography implementation professionally, if perhaps for insufficient reward. I'm sorry that's used to cast aspersions about him by attacking something I didn't say. Why exactly is Koch not qualified to consult on applications of OpenPGP as the main author of GnuPG (which I guess Purism are actually using)?
You may be underestimating how effective this type of knowledge sharing is. Knowing where to look is half the battle.

Good point. The video I linked to merely says that he was contacted by someone in the aviation space about the standard, which I took to mean that it was used in avionics.

Honestly, I'm not sure it's be all that much help. Each space is unique, with different challenges and requirements so I recommend you work with what you've got and what you want. In our case, we had a room with multiple entryways, a peninsula that was cutting off the space unnecessarily, and some specific appliance wants. By identifying those problems and design requirements, it helped us come up with the solution that was a huge improvement.

It is almost trivially obvious that the average person, even in a polarized climate like America during the 2016 election cycle, is more likely to be interested in a reasonably balanced set of results on any given topic than they are to be interested in a set of results that exclusively favor one fairly extreme position.

(Unfortunately, I would say this is even likely to be true of topics for which there is, in fact, an objectively true answer, like climate change, which many of the results will be opposing.)

Bitcoin Core: CVE-2018-17144 Full Disclosure
Well, not really:

> When I clicked "show actions" it revealed the "actions" that make up the shortcut and I could finally see the JGuitar.com link in the URL section.

I mean, that's not exactly a proper attribution notice, I'll give you that... but it's not just straight hot-linking without any visible attribution at all.

(edit2: I mean, they are sending thousands of visitors to the OP's image service, it is hot-linking, which is legal but very improper without notice; you'd think these were some teenage hackers that never heard of "netiquette" before – it would have been pretty stand-up of them to give him a heads-up so he could be sure he had some proper CDNs set up in front of them, rather than sending his bandwidth bills through the ceiling with no notice... that's not really cool, and it puts them at risk too.

If I was the author and I wasn't happy about this, my next step would be to update my website and then replace all of the hot-linked image URLs with something like a big FU to Apple, and it would take Apple some time to react to that and get the egg off their faces after their customers started calling to ask why the Shortcuts app is giving them the middle-finger. It would also ensure that they don't do this again, at least not with JGuitar.com – and I don't think the author wants that.)
