No, at least not in Standard Polish.

There are three voiced sibilant affricates in Polish: d͡z, (alveolar)	d͡ʐ, (retroflex) and	d͡ʑ (palatal.)

The sound of rz and ż is indeed always a voiced (laminar) retroflex sibilant, but and here's the important distinction, following a consonant, ż forms an affricate (the middle one above) but rz does not; instead they remain as 2 separate phonemes (again, dialectal variations may apply.)

The other affricates are dz (alveolar) and dzi and dź respectively (palatal.)

I recommend the Polish phonology Wikipedia page, it seems to me to be relatively well sourced, though maybe a bit difficult to read for beginners: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_phonology#Consonants

EDIT: I think I wasn't clear: there is no difference between ż and rz, except when they follow a consonant. Then Xż is pronounced "in tandem" as an affricate, and Xrz is pronounced as two separate phonemes.
You can't find and hire geniuses for every component. Systems should scale with the average engineer in mind (so should code). We have all smelt the coffee and it smells even better when your team is efficient and well rested.
Perhaps you take the basic features for granted. For example, it works well on a wide variety of devices, especially those with low specs. What about audio quality, which has gradually improved to the point where people I know don't make "normal" calls anymore. What about latency on awful connections. Often when I'm in a place with poor reception, Whatsapp works when other apps don't. All of these aren't build-and-you're-done kind of features. You need to invest continuously to make sure you don't regress.

And the flipside is that people will look at your app and say "what have you done for me lately? What features have you added?"

On the one hand modernizing such things is really, really good initiative. On the other hand JavaScript/CSS frameworks tend to be very actively developed, thus changing the API or even deprecating the whole framework. This might be the problem for mission critical software.
First of all, you didn't originally pose a specific set of questions. You just outlined a nightmare scenario with rhetorical questions.

To your point here, "then why not" isn't an example of a logical deduction.

You're also intentionally ignoring that the discussion here is the banning of a subset of products that we know for certain cause many incredibly serious health problems and is one of the leading causes of premature death in many countries around the world. Smoking is bad for everyone, so making decisions on a "divers[sic] set of individuals" is completely reasonable -- unless you're arguing that smoking is good for some peoples' health?

I agree that if the government (for instance) started banning high-fat foods that there would be reason to say that this is overstepping the mark. But that's not what's happening.

> and that it is appropriate to compel individuals into healthy choices

That's not what's happening.

> If we accept that two parallel lines will never intersect, then why should air traffic controllers worry?

Not only is this a non-sequitur, it's also an awful example of a logical deduction and actually undermines your other examples of "reasonable" questions.
Although the additional regulation in states like California may invite comparison with the likewise highly regulated Chinese system, the paths taken to enact those regulations are very different and that difference matters doesn't it?

In California, we put these regulations onto ourselves through the vote because a majority of us think they will lead to better living (sometimes we are wrong). Because those regulations usually do not materially abrogate the rights of others as enshrined in the US and CA constitutions they often stand the test of time.

And the regulations exist at our pleasure -- if at some point they become too onerous, we can fairly easily elect leaders to dissolve them. You have seen this with our drug laws, which are more lax than most states because stricter laws served us poorly. Government for and by the governed.

In contrast the Chinese system is not realistically a government for and by the governed, but rather a government for the purpose of maintaining control, harmony, and the peace in that order.
Lots of wisdom in this comment
As a government or large enterprise, you should get a support contract with the provider and have a dedicated support to contact.

I kind of miss being able to SSH into my iPhone and run scripts, or just poke around the filesystem. It was fun to have a terminal app and editor where I could edit some code, and then deploy changes to a server. That was about 8 years ago.

I might do that again sometime. It's not urgent though, and I wouldn't switch to Android just for that. But I keep an eye on the jailbreak community.

I also really like the idea of having a portable keyboard and screen to turn my phone into a little development machine. I think the CPU is actually more powerful than my old 2012 MacBook, although it doesn't have as much RAM.
Genuine question: why not SCTP then?
It's a strained metaphor which casts no light on actual NFA implementation or the true distinction of NFAs and DFAs.

In this case, instead of the distinction between "virtual" and "physical" we have, considerably less pretentiously, an "state id" vs a "set of state ids" (in case of actual NFA implementation, said set might well be represented by a bit-vector whether a general purpose register or a SIMD register).

Making tortured analogies to JVMs and virtual machines doesn't actually help explain anything about what's going on. It certainly fails to provide the insight that you might get from comparing the whole "id vs set-of-ids" (one can instantly intuit the risk of an exponential blowout in NFA->DFA conversion, which does in fact exist).

What are the limitations? The blog mentions that transformations are pushed to the leaves of the tree. Is this always possible? Are there operations that can not be implemented using slices?
Sprints are often misused and misinterpreted. They are not hard deadlines. A deadline is when there's going to be a real problem when you don't make it. When a new campaign, shop, whatever opens, the corresponding website needs to be there. That's a deadline.

A sprint goal is meant to provide focus. You've got something to work towards, but if you don't make it, you don't make it. Presumably there was a good reason you didn't make it. It's good to examine that reason to see if that reason can be taken away, or otherwise it can be taken into account in planning. But it's not the end of the world if you don't complete a sprint on time, and you should certainly not work late to complete the sprint.

I've worked in very successful teams that never finished a sprint on time. I think that's totally fine. It's not about the deadline, it's about the focus.
> does "differentiation" have any applications in implementing more complete programming languages?

I'm not sure about implementing per se, but you can extend some notion of differentiation to richer programming languages: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S030439750...

The differential of a term does give you some information about how a term behaves under reduction, so I guess the answer is "maybe" - sounds like a fun project to work on. :)

More generally, there are models of linear logic built on a notion of differentiation (mentioned in the same paper as above), which might translate to a compilation of linear lambda calculus/classical processes/pi calculus/etc.

I worked at a company that was highly dependent on us-east at the time. We survived. This is very different
Yes, I think this is because despite simply recounting the justifications for levelling a city that US forces put forth, it gives the misleading impression of having some suggestion on how to improve things.

I do think that the US military is reporting their objectives honestly. Armies are very much task focused organisations, and it really doesn't work if you are unclear about the task.

What does tend to be questionable is the metrics reported towards completion of the task: a military tends to solve tasks given to it no matter how it must misreport things on the ground. Ground reports are usually unreliable anyway.
Your price is absolutely ridiculous for what it does.

As other people mentioned, the only correct way to approach wars is to not have them in the first place.

But since we do have them...

The article failed to convince me that flamethrowers would be in any way less destructive than artillery and/or bombardment. As a Pole, we have had experience of our cities being systematically burned to the ground by Germans during WWII. Notable examples would be Warsaw Ghetto Uprising and Warsaw Uprising. In both cases Germans used flamethrowers to deliberately burn the place to the ground, building by building.

"Almost all Warsaw is a sea of flames. To set houses afire is the surest way to deprive the insurgents of their hiding places. When we crush the uprising, Warsaw will get what it deserves – complete annihilation." - Hans Frank, German Governor-General

On the other hand tear gas seems like quite civilized way to force an enemy out of a building. I don't see why it should be banned in close range combat.

There is something incredibly worrying about the fact that choosing to not have a Google account means a large portion of the web is walled off from you.

Choosing to not have a Google account means you are co-opted into doing labor for free (helping their image classifiers recognize cars, shop signs, etc.) for Google. Have a browser with tracker blocking built in? Aah, too bad. Please "solve" these 5-10 pages of work for our algorithm. Don't want to? Too bad, you can't use this site.

And yet, if clients come to me looking for a good solution to determine who is a bot and who isn't, I don't know what else to recommend. Other Captcha solutions seem completely inferior.

On pasture land I see the opposite problem - the animals eat the 'best' stuff (clover, grass) and leave the weeds (thistles, nettles, buttercups, ragwort etc). (Although partly this is because on pasture land, weeds are 'what animals do not eat' :)
This comment is bad in many ways. FB is a people company and seeks to employ those who support its mission and beliefs.

Ex. If a person is publicly known to believe in eugenics and they are in a position where the company could be adversely affected by the continued employment of that person then it is more than in the interest to remove association with said person.

I'd be surprised if you've never had to stop associating with people who beliefs you did not share at all.

That really isn't how fully functional adults act. You should be perfectly fine knowing someone who disagrees with you. In fact, that exposes you to variety of opinions (which is good good your critical thinking abilities). Why else talk to anyone at all, if you've just surrounded yourself with only yes men, who just agree with you on everything?

You can disagree with someone and still be friends, enjoy a conversation, or have other things in common. Even about politics. Even about everything.

Although it's great being able so see the image on your desktop the experience of seeing the actual artwork is very often much better.

On screen you'll miss out on much of the subtly of texture, surface finishes, scale, framing, the ability to look at it from different angles and distances and more. These all add a lot to the viewing experience.

Paper: A Generic Framework for Privacy Preserving Deep Learning (NIPS 2018)
Not to mention the unholy alliance between the contemporary elite "left" and capital, called globalism.

The only real counterforce to global capitalism has historically been the people of a nation, and the populist nationalism of a few nation states has been the only example ever known of an economic system that has upheld basic human dignity (whether it has been called social democracy, christian democracy or something else). This is now going down the drain.
You are making a distinction that this clause went far out of its way to keep you from making :/. When Apple says "scripts" and "code" they are absolutely and clearly talking about the code that is being interpeted, not the interpreter itself (which they call "interpreters").

Pythonista, which is "borderline", might actually be possible to claim is an educational app: the person who wrote it seems to discuss it like that, and that is often how it is used. Apple seems to want to allow apps that are able to be used for teaching people to program. That is not the stated purpose of iSH nor is it how most people seem to want to use iSH.

You just really really seem to want to believe that this is OK based on this clause, but you are past the point of "stretching" and are now just seemingly purposefully refusing to understand Apple's restriction and also seem to not understand that this isn't some black and white "letter of the law" sort of thing but a massive grey area of "what is Apple's intention here" (which includes wanting to avoid creating a little app ecosystem inside of another app, which the binary package manager here clearly does).

Eleven years on, this remains one of my favorite papers!

There's a pretty variant of this idea introduced in 1995 by Valentin Antimirov called partial derivatives of regular expressions. His idea was to replace the single derivative with a set of partial derivatives that add up to the whole derivative. This simplifies the derivative algorithm quite a bit, and makes it possible to write amazingly concise and efficient regular expression matchers.

E.g., here's an implementation of a regular expression compiler that uses Antimirov derivatives to take a regexp and build a table-driven matcher in about 50 lines of code:

There's nothing Agile about that. Estimates should come from the people who do the work, not from above. If a stakeholder absolutely wants something in 3 weeks, they can only get what can be made in those 3 weeks. If the dev team says it can't be done, it can't be done.

Don't blame bad managers and bad companies on Agile. Agile needs to empower the people doing the actual work, or it's not Agile. Managers need to facilitate, not bang their fists.

I wonder how you can manage without WA in the Netherlands. For me, all group events, sports, kids' activities, trips, vacations, family things, etc are managed in a whatsapp group. To "App" has entered daily Dutch vocabulary as a verb (meaning sending a whatsapp message). I'm in dozens of groups (none of them created by me) and participating in anything without it would be very unpractical.

Why you should pick strong consistency, whenever possible
Another World was 1991 and Amiga/Ataris ST, though. That was already around the end of the C64 era, and a dramatically different world.

And one of the reasons Another World did well was that it was obviously an entirely different beast, with it's rotoscoped vector graphics. It was something entirely new, and on platforms where there was much more tolerance for artistic vision vs. how to fit more enemies on screen.

While Limbo as presented here, would have been at risk of ending up as "yet another side-scroller" on the C64 at it's height, when side-scrollers of every variation was everywhere.
