Indeed, if you allow randomness, you can get all the other desired attributes listed in Arrow’s impossibility theorem. Random ballot voting, for instance, has nearly every desirable property. There’s no reason to vote strategically (dishonestly). The race between candidates A and B can’t be affected by the presence or absence of any third candidate (there are no spoiler candidates). At least one voter is guaranteed to be happy with the election results (ok, that one is sort of a joke).

But of course, random ballot has just one pesky undesirable property: the fact that it’s random.
Sure, but current techniques are a long ways from that.

These conclusions are only yours. One could argue that although the ceiling could be pretty low, it's not something that is set in stone.

Besides, it's not like your alternative is any more appealing anyway. I'm not so sure about the absolutism of saying "oh, it's not perfect, so let's just abolish it completely to make sure countries get even less to subsidize healthcare and education".

If the environmentalists had concentrated their efforts into educating people about CO2 as a pollutant that causes the acidification of the oceans, I think increases in CO2 emissions could have been slowed and reversed a long time ago. The chemistry is very straight forward and the damage to the oceans very easy to show and explain.

Unfortunately, instead of trying to find replacements for the energy produced by fossil fuel(nuclear was just sitting their, ready), it seems to me the most vocal environmentalists were basically anti-technology and anti-human and hoped the the huge fear of global warming would be enough to get a huge range of policies they had been pushing of decades passed. No such luck and the other side has now politicize global warming to their benefit.

assume fixed width characters

Python strings are not iterables of characters. They're iterables of Unicode code points. This is why leaking the internal storage up to the programmer is problematic; prior to 3.3, you'd routinely see artifacts of the internal storage (like surrogate pairs) which broke the "strings are iterables of code points" abstraction.

e.g. functions to obtain substrings rather than array indexes

Strings are iterables of code points. Indexing into a string yields the code point at the requested index. While I'd like to have an abstraction for sequences of graphemes, strings-as-code-points is not the worst thing that a language could do. And all the "just use this thing that does exactly the same thing with a different name because I want indexing/length but also want to insist people don't call them that" is frankly pointless.
> unsigned char * is better for both raw binary buffers and dealing w/ buffers of UTF-8 data.

Or, even better, uint8_t. Fundamental types don’t have guarantee fixed sizes, only minimum. Explicitly asking for 8 bits only can save sanity in edge cases in a long running code base where no one is sure what other people is doing anymore.

One exception to the otherwise solid design principles:

"If an error requires particularly subtle error-handling, prefer panicking or aborting the process. When cryptographic operations fail in a way that would require reporting an error to the user (in other words, there's no valid non-error interpretation like in the case of signature verification), and handling that failure is particularly error-prone, it may be justified to make the function's API infallible, and instead panic or abort the process on error. BoringSSL famously does this when failing to read randomness (e.g., from /dev/urandom), as this has historically been a source of vulnerabilities."

It is almost never okay for a library to abort the process. The only exception I can think of is when discovering e.g. memory corruption or other UB, or when continuing would result in the above.
Functional of course.

How do you think economies grow? Job creation at this scale has to be funded out of tax receipts and bonds. The problem is managing the corruption (note: one must assume there are corrupt actors. The trick is managing them).

The problem is free up to 128GB is not 95% of problems you would run on an in memory database.

What difference does it make how one calls it if I have to program the same way I'd have to program if I were using object oriented paradigm? Or even worse, if I'm forced to debug and understand code written in object-oriented style, how does that help debug and understand the program?

It's a travesty this syntax or anything resembling object-oriented programming is allowed.

By the by, the best programming languages aren't ones where there is more than one way to do it, but ones where there is one and exactly one way to do any given thing and the reason is simple: the code is easier to understand and therefore enhance or debug for anyone proficient in that language; in addition, it reduces the total number of mistakes in software written in such a language. AWK is one example of such a language.

> It is almost never okay for a library to abort the process.

Using Joe Duffy's distinction [1], bugs aren't recoverable errors. Error handling admits the necessity of error recovery, but you generally don't have such a fine-grained policy for bugs. A dual-use of exceptions as a means to signal bug conditions is unfortunate, and I believe Mundane's policy is clearly following this distinction.

Also, panicking in Rust can be caught in the same thread [2]. So it is actually much more flexible than process abort---if you need a general, umbrella protection against bugs, here you have a way.

The points are a pretty accurate metric of how much someone contributes to the community. And a contribution is simply a new perspective or piece of information to add. Some specific ways to contribute are:

- Ask questions about submissions

- Assess the merit of a submission

- Describe something related that others might not know.

- Link to related and supporting evidence.

One thing I would like to see is the commitment to keep it free till X years at least. OK, MemSQL has "decided" to give it for free up to 128GB of RAM usage now. But they can "decide" 2 years later that they want to charge for any MemSQL usage. Then what options the "small" businesses, who have adopted MemSQL, have?

When it comes to commercial products, it is generally good to check if you can afford their paid offering, then only make the tool core part of your infrastructure. For databases, it's better to stick with fully open source popular options from a long-term perspective.
What about solar? Change an area of land that previously reflected most of the light back into space to absorb it instead.
The issue comes down to cost. As he mentions in the article, the goal is to get to 5 cents a day. Just a basic calculation, a “standard” septic system costs between $1500-4000 to install, and lasts roughly 25 years. Just doing the math on the low end costs brings you to about $0.16 cents a day, 3X the goal Bill Gates is advocating.

Note: this isn’t even taking into account the cost of the toilet itself or any plumbing needed.

Researchers “see” through walls using ambient Wi-Fi signals and a smartphone
I had this idea back in my undergrad when my professor first told me about neutrinos (which was his forte). The harder I looked the more infeasible it seemed. The big problem, is creating a detector. The reason this is a big problem is because neutrinos are so small and so neutral. How small? An electron is 511keV. A neutrino is <= 0.21eV. That's 7 orders of magnitude! And on top of that, they have a neutral charge. There is no electric dipole moment either. So how does it interact? Basically by striking another particle. And remember that atoms are basically empty space. So chances of that are slim.

So to place a detector in orbit we'd need one of two things. Space travel to become cheap enough where putting a massive body up is cost feasible, or a radically different understanding of how to detect neutrinos. (First is more likely)

The former also comes with some problems. You'll find more about this by asking why detectors are so far underground. And there's a big connection there to generating the resolution you'd need to map the interior of the Earth.

The introvert/extrovert dimension is as predictive as the identical dimension in the Big 5. I've made great use of knowing when a colleague, friend, etc. is introvert or extrovert regardless of which test told used. Even if MBTI didn't quite hit the mark historically, I don't see why there are so many haters. It's part of working towards better models. It's a worthwhile pursuit to try to characterize stuff like personality. MBTI is strictly more useful than Astrology just as BIg5 is strictly more useful than MBTI. Future models will surpass these with things like hybrid self-report + neuro-imaging approaches. People really seem to feel threatened by being characterized though. It's a bummer.

If you're into unikernels, rumpkernels[0] are the least-modification-required approach I've seen.

Basically, if you compile your program with a minimally (as minimal as is possible) modified compiler, you get "rumprunnable" output. there's a list of popular packages built to run on rump kernels[1] (Rust is supported[2]). I haven't tried to use the toolchain yet, but it's pretty appealing to me.

The biggest issue is that rumpkernels seem to not be in developed anymore. I can't tell if the entire is just off somewhere being productive with their rumpkernels and are happy or if no one is around at all. The Github organization[3]'s repos all seem to not have been changed in a while either.

Outside of rumpkernels, Nabla containers[4] also look interesting to me. They're built on Solo5[5], but the only microkernels on there are currently MirageOS (for OCaml) and IncludeOS (C++?). Nabla looks amazing (containers look like a great fit and they seemed to have improved ergonomics massively), but the limitations[6] are intense.

I feel that if that law was to pass, the affected companies would simply add that 3% tax to the prices European consumers pay, especially since this is a tax on the revenue and not on profit.

It's not like US tech giants have much competition to fear from European companies anyway. A 3% price increase isn't going to get anyone to switch to another service (except maybe in the case of Amazon's physical sales).

In the end, consumers would pay and this would add to the already large price difference between the EU and the US, due to the much higher applicable VAT in the EU, as well as other similar taxes applied in some EU countries (private copying levy [0], eco-participation [1]...).
