> D itself looked and still looks very interesting to me, as it can be […] without having insanely ugly syntax such as c++ or rust (inb4 rUsT iS VeRy ReADaBlE).

I did a quick dive into aforementioned stdlib only to stumble upon something I would rather prefer any Rust/C++ version over: https://github.com/weka-io/mecca/blob/f5dc6d9f71983ea7b852ad...

Some might want to exempt standard library from the "readable code" argument, but I'd argue that readability argument was lost the moment language designers allowed anyone to write things like `whatisthis!"whatever"({t.__ctor(args);})` (regardless of best practices that regular devs might unanimously follow). You can't just say that "A is bad 'cause it allows unreadable code" and follow that with "nobody's doing bad things in B therefore it's much better".
Full retail price in china is 1,999 RMB ($289-300). Wholesale on Alibaba for more than 300 is $153USD per scooter.

Bird probably manages to get a further $25-30 off that, so perhaps as low as $120 per scooter, plus perhaps $10 for the bird brain modification and shipping by container, another $10-15.

So theoretically, a scooter could pay for itself in 10-20 days if used that heavily. I'd say that they are very capable of absorbing the cost of the occasional one going missing

THey didn't write a new compiler. They did have some work to make their codebase work on LDC, the LLVM-backend implementation of D.

Rewriting the standard library for performance is not unique to D. Game developers famously avoid stl/stdc++ (https://github.com/electronicarts/EASTL). The reasons behind that seems to be similar: optimizing memory allocation to their specific use case.
Bargain prices are at the crash. Beginning of the bear market is by definition the time when prices will continue to decline.

Congratulations! But you don't need to do anything, do you? 8 million is not a terribly large fortune - although way more than most will see in their lifetime. If you live 50 years, you can use 100 000 of that per year, and still have something left over after a few surprise expenses. That's still middle class existence - except for the burning need to be employed.

That was interesting. That page took me to the paper, "Keys Under Doormats: Mandating insecurity by requiring government access to all data and communications" (2015) - http://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/97690

From the conclusion:

> This report’s analysis of law enforcement demands for exceptional access to private communications and data shows that such access will open doors through which criminals and malicious nation-states can attack the very individuals law enforcement seeks to defend. The costs would be substantial, the damage to innovation severe, and the consequences to economic growth difficult to predict. The costs to developed countries’ soft power and to our moral authority would also be considerable.

<snip>

> If law enforcement wishes to prioritize exceptional access, we suggest that they need to provide evidence to document their requirements and then develop genuine, detailed specifications for what they expect exceptional access mechanisms to do. As computer scientists and security experts, we are committed to remaining engaged in the dialogue with all parts of our governments, to help discern the best path through
these complex questions.

This is a paper by experts in the field. The Australian government would do well to listen to them and not fantasize that they can legislate away reality.

But that’s also for a car that you need to park, and that stops at traffic lights. Depending on the travel, scooters are a great value proposition.

I’d say shared electric motorbikes (also present in Madrid) pose a more direct threat to scooters: they accompdatr 2 people, speedier, safer (comes with helmet), easily parkeable, not affected by traffic jams (but dependent on traffic lights - in strictness)
My rule of thumb is that if a subject area includes the word "science" in its title, it is less likely to follow the scientific method.

Physicists don't assert that they study "physics science", nor do chemists describe their subject as "chemistry science".

It's only a rule of thumb of course. There are exceptions (computer science, neuroscience, ...) but I think it works in a lot of cases: "social science", "management science", "data science", ...

It's a bit like how if a country includes the word "democratic" in its title, it's less likely to be a real democracy.

Parking minimums exist to fix this.

True, but it's not the only solution.

Other approaches include parking maximums, in particular, not allowing parking (e.g. inside dense city centres) at all, see e.g. [1] for such requirements in London. A hybrid solution would be shared parking only, so no business is allowed to have on-site parking. Various other alternatives exist.

3. As everyone else said, spend more time with the family.

The Creepy Line is written and directed by the filmmakers behind conservative documentary Clinton Cash. It takes its title from Google executive Eric Schmidt, who said in 2010 that Google’s job was to “get right up to the creepy line and not cross it.” Schmidt has gotten no end of flack for that quote, and it’s easy to point out that Google is, in fact, often very creepy. But The Creepy Line makes a more specific, partisan argument. It claims that Google (and Facebook, which the film refers to almost interchangeably) deliberately manipulates its service to suppress conservative users and ideas, and — more ambitiously — that Google tweaked its search algorithm to swing the 2016 election in Hillary Clinton’s favor.

I agree with you about rotation. The main gear is so far forward of that prop that I'm actually wondering if this thing doesn't rotate, like the B-52. As for landing flare, those wings aren't holding any fuel so they are razor thin. I'm having a hard time deciding about when they stall.

But I don't see asymmetrical thrust as being a real problem on this plane. It has far fewer moving parts than the single- or dual- motor props that it aims to replace. This is not an ETOPS aircraft, and even if an outboard motor fails you still have that central pusher to help. Back to those razor-sharp wings: they are quite long and it looks like this plane would have a mighty fine glide ratio.

Unfortunately, some publications use a double-blind review process, where checking whether the authors have published similar content before becomes more difficult: you'd have to figure out who the authors are first, which kind of goes against the idea of a double-blind review process.

But of course, when the double-blind review process is not used, then it makes perfect sense for a reviewer to check the authors' other published work. In journals that require a certain percentage of original work, I don't see any other way.
See above - it was -2 or 65534.

I think -2 is just easier to type and stands out more.
If a function is pure, it is automatically inferred by the compiler and it will be marked for purity (sorry for the lack of words). We don't have to annotate with pure attribute. Also D offers the right balance of functional programming that I can think of. Can you elaborate on what's missing from that point?
D is a work of love by WalterBright and the community. I like to think of D as a true successor to C++ when people compare Go to a C++ alternative. It is between Rust and Go but it doesnt do away with Object Oriented programming or the many paradigmns that exist for different programming approaches. I usually tell people if you can grasp C, C++, C# or Java you are going to understand plenty of Go.

Rust has a larger learning curve, Go gains plenty of traction over this simple fact.

You hear it often enough "I wanted to learn Rust but Go was simpler to get into" but if those same people gave D a shot they might never look back. D is best understood once you start hacking away at D code because you will appreciate the beauty in D. Different people love different things about it. I love that it is compiled and dont get phased by the optional GC, it doesnt stop Java, C#, or Go from being awesome...
Forcing that spot to be parking instead of a home means we're all paying for the externalities your car imposes. It would have been a home for humans but your government insisted it be a home for cars instead.

Don't do anything. The number one difference between needing and having is that when you need, the status quo is your enemy; when you have, it's your friend. If you need to pay rent, you gotta make money. If you need a new job or new clients, you gotta hustle. If you need to keep your bosses or investors happy, you gotta watch those metrics and keep on grindin'.

You pushed because you needed. Now that you have, stop pushing and learn to wait. If life was fine two weeks ago, it'll still be fine two weeks from now – as long as nothing changes. What $6M buys you is as much "nothing changes" as you want. The status quo isn't everyone's friend, but it's yours now and it takes some getting used to. So take your time.
I do never used Tumblr but AFAICT porn is the most common contents, so i bet the major source of revenue...

BTW the neovittorian movement against sex in general (disguised in many form to health things, anti-pornography for pedagogic things, anti-prostitution because of racket, ...) it's a clear sign of our degradation as society.
I'm not sure how this proves the algorithm is doing a poor job. Any NSFW classifier is going to have a non-trivial error rate. Tumblr hosts LOTS of images. So if you have a non-trivial error rate and multiply it by LOTS of images you are going to get LOTS of images being misclassified incorrectly. It's not surprising someone was able to write a story about a bunch of images being misclassified. This doesn't seem to tell us anything about whether the algorithm has a high error rate or not.

> Not to forget, C++ template meta-programming was discovered by accident

That's a bit of an uncharitable reading, no? For others that would like to make up their own mind: https://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/1253...
I went through something similar a few years ago. Briefly, the things that stand out for me now are: depending on your circumstances and where you live, and your goals for the future, this windfall may not be as big a deal as you think at first. Create a spreadsheet and calculate how much you want to set aside for your kids, do you want to at least give them the option of studying at a top US University on full fees? Do you want to get them a foot on the property ladder? Do you want to fund a trust for them and your wife that matures at some point in the future and provides meaningful means for them to live on? What investments do you want to make in order to feel secure? For some people, this only comes through ownership of physical assets like land and buildings in juristictions that are stable and have well developed legal systems.
Once you've got a handle on the long term goals, then make a habit of keeping a budget for your spending, there are lots of tools for this. It keeps you grounded and reminds you that every decision to spend money on something impulsively means you are taking money out of some other category. This doesn't change just because you have "lots" of money.
I've seen many people (working in finance in London) who regularly got annual bonuses in the millions, who are now having to live very modestly because they allowed their lifestyles to expand unfettered and forgot the basics of long term planning and daily budgeting. Don't fall into the trap of thinking you are "rich", you have the means to have funded some of your long term goals but only if you are disciplined in future and continue to be diligent about money.

Best benefit of all is if this helps you spend more time with your family, and doesn't add stress to your life. Having lots of investments can be a lot more stressful than just having an adequate income and living within your means. Be careful of bankers selling your "wealth management" services.
You avoid GC in D in the same way you avoid GC in C++. If you are using D to do rapid prototyping or scripting, at least you have a GC that allows you not to think about it.

If you are on a project where performance is a feature, you already think about your memory management, no matter the language.

TL;DR: The man is obsessed with citing his own work—except on the occasions when he does a cut-and-paste job, in which case he is suddenly shy about mentioning his other publications. And, as editor, he reportedly says he sends out everything for peer review, but then doesn’t.
I love how the term FUD is used, purely ironically after the decade of shit MSFT gave everyone else. It's only fair to treat them with suspicion. The reason for this is even if the current MSFT objectives are good then what is to say that the next set of objectives are? People who don't treat them with suspicion have no expertise dealing with corporate whim over the years.
A Study of Potential Cost Savings from Bernie Sanders Medicare for All Act
Speaking as someone who made a decent pile in cryptocurrency:

1. Don't ride on the stocks forever. You'll feel it as a windfall now, but it's an investment. You invested in the company, and it paid off, so you should probably part ways and start a new chapter, since the company's fortunes can change quickly. Every investment comes with risk and the more you have in one investment, the more you will feel that risk - so get some diversity in the portfolio as you are able to. Assume that you will have to give up a hefty percentage of the $8mm in taxes and fees in the process of doing so. Advisors can help mitigate that, but you want to keep watching the finances while you rearrange your life.

2. Even as a multi-millionaire, you can't afford "big things" like premium real estate or private jets. The numbers do not pencil out. It's healthy to still want a simple lifestyle and use the cash to indulge more modest luxuries. I like being able to order anything I want from Starbucks!

3. It doesn't matter if you succeeded financially, you'll still have plenty of things to struggle with in life - the Stoics say as much. The only difference is that you have room to choose which things you struggle with. You don't have to plan to take on the world, but you can now devote yourself to any altruistic pursuit you wish, any academic study or athletic achievement, or travel wherever you like, for as long as you like. These are things that you mostly can't do if your existence is premised on paying the bills. But you do want to stay hungry in some way, even if a paycheck can't do it.

What do you think "dying" means, or looks like? What signs would such a "dying" awake person display, that a "dying" sleeping person wouldn't?

Choking? Pulse goes up and breathing becomes shallow.

Cardiac arrest? Aneurysm? Torn blood vessel? Shot in the head? Stabbed in the chest? Poisoned? Spider/Snake bite? Fell off bed and broke hip? All these "dyings" are easily detected by pulse and breathing monitors.

Pump as much as you can into your retirement savings, where i live this has the highest return and makes sure whatever happens later, you are covered.
