The justification is that they needed a unique accessor, because:

- attempting to access a non-existent private property using `this.prop` would create a public property "prop" in JS, which they claim would be a source of bugs.

- they also wanted to allow creating a public property on a subclass with the same name as a private property on a parent class—having the accessors the same could be confusing.

That said, they could still have had keywords for definition with an alternative accessor. # is definitely not idiomatic; it's extremely ugly.
Amazing work. What changes are needed in this library to make it benchmark GPUs ?
To anyone knowledgeable with SIPC, what happens in the event that many firms go bankrupt at the same time (e.g. global financial collapse) and SIPC doesn't have enough funds to cover losses across all firms? As far as I'm aware, FDIC (for bona fide bank accounts) is backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government (even though, on its own, it may not have enough funds to cover all liabilities, Congress can and will authorize additional funding to cover said liabilities), but I'm not sure if that's true for SIPC.
True true, although GA batches these pretty smartly from what I remember.
I'm interested because I've mainly used ANSI C (pre-99), so like to know the experiences of those using higher versions of the C standard like 11 and 99.

I know about Rust, D, Zig, Nim, and have used D some.

This question is more about the old C vs. the newer standards, but feel free to talk about those other languages too, if you have any relevant points to make.
The SEC and FINRA (regulatory agencies) don't allow day trading for accounts with balances less than $25,000. If you exceed 3 (?) day trades in the past 5 days, your account is locked from day trading for 90 days (so if you buy a stock you will be unable to sell it that day). All exchanges enforce this rule, not just Robinhood.
I'm really wondering what the Fed's game plan is. Raising rates quickly and launching quantitative tightening in a globally weakening economic environment seems crazy.
I would go to see a movie for $1 without thinking much. If it's a good movie. If it's a bad one, I won't go seeing it even if I'm being paid (unless it's a lot of money). Now how to know if it's good or not is the question. But price is a rather bad signal for this - one has much better ones, like people involved in the production, trailers, reviews, recommendations of people you trust, etc. And it works reasonably well.

Counter-anecdote: I've been running an Arch install for 2+ years with zero problems. Picking hardware that has direct kernel support will save you a bunch of headaches.

Also, a rolling release distro, which you'd think would be less stable, provides better hardware support as the kernel and firmware packages are much more recent (not to mention libraries/build dependencies). Personally, I'd never go back to a fixed-release distro.
Can't we just use a private keyword like other languages? Why the # symbol. Just seems random and confusing.

The stock market is a zero sum game. If HFTs are making money then someone else's is losing it. The other traders who's trades are closest are the most likely losers. HFTs will tell you what a great liquidity service they provide but they are doing nothing more than using the equivalent of insider information to skim the cream off the top.

I think you're onto something. When you formalize math you suddenly see how things summarized to one word or even implied implicitly can require pages of proof. But in this particular case, you're a little off. At least in conventional theorem proving (Coq, HOL, Agda) you mostly need 2 of those ("definition" and "equivalence") and for meta programmatic heuristic purposes (to help the solver) "constraint" too (except this has nothing to do with "proof proper").

Assignment isn't really needed for formal proofs since assignments usually requires a computational context that's not pure and most proofs are done tactics-like or functional style. I also can't see how "comparison" any different than "equivalence".

I would say the notion of "=" isn't the biggest difference here. I think what bugs people about "=" in automated proof systems is because (somehow?) our brain is really good at graph searching mathematical proofs and so typing equality proof in Coq, Agda, HOL is inherently too verbose.

Sorry to nitpick but this is an important topic as equality-reasoning is one of the harder parts of automated proof systems.
I work in information security and basically every IS system does exactly that. Tracks potentially suspicious behavior but doesn't act on it unless it becomes a pattern or something bad happens. As soon as something bad happens, the system has a history of all the suspicious behavior that actor had done before the actual crime.

It doesn't matter if it's an IP address scanning your network then hitting one system, then logging in and scooping up all your data versus a human staring at your house for a few days then walking up while you're not home and stealing your TV. You should know if someone is scoping out your perimeter in preparation for a breach, and post-breach you should know the history of the attack.

I know nothing about Next Door but from reading the comments it seems like the problem is having this information in untrained hands.

Putting people in jail for doing bad things is a signal to future people who want to do those bad things that they will suffer consequences for it. This will make them rethink doing those things. AKA "deterrence"

If people can do these things and get away with it, why wouldn't they? They make billions of dollars doing this and have no chance of suffering any negative consequences. If you were in a room with a billion dollars on the table and you knew you'd be free to take it and no one would ever come after you for it, wouldn't you take it?

> In fact, most of the housing that was built in the late 1800s and early 1900s is still standing.

I don't think that the linked article actually says that.

What it does say is that Buffalo has the oldest housing stock in the country with a median construction year of 1954. I would guess that to be mostly an artifact of the declining population of the area, which peaked between 1960 and 1970.

public and private are already reserved keywords in JavaScript strict mode, so there should be no issue with web compatibility.

https://mathiasbynens.be/notes/reserved-keywords
One important thing to note here is that this goes much further than `private` in TypeScript. The latter is purely a compile-time illusion. If you write `private x`, your objects' x property is still publically accessible and modifiable as far as the JS runtime is concerned. any other. It‘s just the TypeScript compiler that gives you an error if you access x, and only if it happens to have the type information it needs to do so (if the object ends up in an `any` variable, all bets are off).

This means TypeScript's "private" properties also shows up in the return value of Object.keys() etc. So it‘s a pretty leaky abstraction.

This proposal, on the other hand, tries to solve the much harder problem of of bringing true private instance variables to JS. This means making it impossible to access these variables from outside the project. To do this, they had to introduce a complete new "private namespace" that is different from the `this.<name>` one, because the latter is already reserved for the visible-to-everyone properties (messing with that would have serious compatibility implications). Hence the `#foo` syntax.
Some interesting notes here from Matthias of HtDP/Little Schemer author fame, how to do software engineering http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/matthias/4500-f18/lectures.html and it's basically what I do, top down design, then build bottom up, which at some point during this I'll trash the spec and re-do it as now I have a better idea from building what I actually need. Repeat until somewhat satisfied with what been built as you'll never be satisfied.

I also use most of the advice here from the talk 'Effective ML', like creating an interface for everything, making failure obvious, ect https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4l16sYRpfL8
I've seen this attitude in engineering majors who have been required to take humanities and liberal arts classes. Maybe such a requirement helps some people, but I suspect resentment is a more common outcome amongst people already predisposed to devalue the humanities.
It is not mandatory to be in a certain income bracket to get a high score on your SAT or on your AP exams.

How about things like readability and ease of maintenance and modification? To those people making real products (and not just coding for a hobby), enabling collaboration is far more important than whether it lets the programmer feel clever and powerful.

Pickup trucks indeed have their advantages over the vehicles I listed. However, I would disagree somewhat regarding where the advantages are.

I'd say that the vehicles I listed and pickup trucks manage fairly equally in the above transport categories (tools, furniture, kayak, bike). The way to go about it is just different.

But: Pickup trucks outclass all the vehicles I listed as soon as you leave the tarmac. Here in Germany, many people in rural areas who would own a pickup truck in the US also own a "family tractor" for working in the woods or in other off-road locations.

Then again: The vehicles I listed will always be faster on the Autobahn than a pickup truck. I regularly see people in station wagons go 160km/h and above for prolonged distances on the A3 at night.

In the end, I find it extremely fascinating how a different regulatory environment has bred different 'species' of utility vehicles on both sides of the Atlantic.
> This sort of obvious misapplication of law can't be prevented

Sure it can. Complain-and-investigate frameworks are among the more onerous regulatory designs. America features them in its securities regulations, but that's because nothing short of a high-calibre solution was working. Other options include absolute liability, negotiated settlement, reporting & monitoring, subsidized mediation & arbitration and combinations thereof.

If one really wanted a complain-and-investigate model, a single European enforcement body would have been superior to letting each of the EU's members interpret and enforce the regulation to their preferences.

These issues were brought up early, often and loudly. Unfortunately, opposition to the law was repeatedly conflated with opposition to its aims.

Huh - would it be possible for a state that cares (say... California?) to check the trucks when entering the state? Or is that not allowed due to the Interstate Commerce act?

First, like the other commenters, I'm not in love with the perlish # syntax. I'm not sure why it was wise/necessary to add a previously illegal character as a prefix, rather than adding a "private" keyword, but I'm sure there's some reason.

Second, the example affords an opportunity to rant about a pet peeve of mine.

"Now ask yourself, how would you implement this class in JavaScript?"

I wouldn't. Listen folks: unless you're doing some weird/temporary debugging or you need to add some meta-functionality (e.g. logging) to an API that reeallly can't change, don't write getters/setters. If accessing or setting a property needs to do computation or have side effects, refactor so that it's done explicitly by calling a method. Anything that lets you attach invisible effects to normal syntax is an anti-pattern because it makes your code behave differently than it appears to, and therefore it's harder to reason about from the outside.

This is really hard to accurately predict.

The average wood structure with concrete foundation lasts 120 years. We have a good understanding of how much CO2 is costs to build an all-concrete structure today, and we have a good understanding of how much CO2 it costs to build a conventional building today. How much CO2 will it cost to build the replacement building in ~100 years from now? What will the energy requirements of a conventional building built 100 years from now be compared to the energy requirements of our options today? Think about how much different a structure built in 1918 is compared to one build today.

There is no more paranoia in having a camera security feature than locking your door. if people are checking out your house repeatedly then you might have a problem so a precaution is fine.

considering that it is easy to surf news sites and find video captured by home surveillance systems showing people taking packages, trying to get in, or having broke in, it is not unreasonable to install such a device.

the issue is that the data would be available to the police without the homeowners permission. people coming to the door have no expectation of privacy on property they do not own and if need be a simple sign on the property can declare as such.

It's a branch of mathematics which wouldn't be considered a single branch without the practical concerns of programming driving it. You have everything from computability, sure, but you also have queuing theory (networking), formal grammars (parsers, compilers), relational algebra (database queries), and whatever else I'm forgetting, all under one banner, because all of them are useful to the same practical field.
The US economy revolves around housing. You can't unwind that without tanking everything.

Dollars are created via lending. The largest pool of loans in the US is lending for housing. It's worth about 9 trillion dollars.

When housing prices go down, borrowers walk away from houses and mortgages, and banks with single-digit equity (basically all of them) become insolvent. When banks become insolvent, the economy crashes.

When that happens, the Federal Reserve steps in and prints trillions of dollars to prop up asset prices, and houses (and equities) go back up.

I don't see this changing anytime soon.

I haven't really ever worked in a company where they used straight waterfall in practice; it has usually been design and documentation up front with the main aspects discovered, followed by coding and updating some or all of the documents as you go in an itertive sort of manner re-designing as you go. Typically, the documents updated were screen shots and data formats. You can't call that agile perhpas, but I don't think you can call it waterfall, either.

You can still use forward declarations. You can even use them in C++. But you have to be sure to get the signature exactly right (one of my favorite passages from “Design & Evolution of C++” involves Stroustrup’s discovery that a lot of programmers were cavalier about their forward declarations, e.g., using “...” as in any declaration where it would be syntactically valid).
