I'd say the tension between your first paragraph and your last gives us the grey area that I was talking about.

Ultimately, the big difference between whiteboard and reality in the "A or B" scenarios is that the rates of return are not known. You can represent the scenario such that an investor has some working risk-weighted estimate but... Idk. I think a rocket company just doesn't lend to that type analysis, in practice.

The long term comes down to belief in one way or another.

Personally, I suspect that the reason for these arrangements in the face of traditional economic rationale is kinda meta.

We already have a lot of large companies under traditional, often institutional shareholder control. This tends to yield a uniformity and leaves certain opportunities on the table, whichever strategies get reliably vetoed by a generic, institutional shareholder elected board.
I appreciate the effort you put into your work, and it certainly looks complete. Thanks for sharing it. But I hope you formatted the book so it's easier to read than your landing page. Center alignment is hard on the eyes.
> But it is the electorate's responsibility to keep themselves informed.

Is it? Surely this is why we have people we delegate to because most people aren't going to be spending their time trying to keep up with the finer points of macroeconomics within a multicountry trading block as it pertains to tariffs, etc.

Much like I delegate to a doctor when I'm ill - if he gave me the wrong treatment and said "it's your fault, you should be better informed", that would seem a little harsh, no?

YouTube's definition of copyright infringement is "someone claims it is". That's literally it, they are not actually checking the potential infringement (neither claim to do it for that matter).

There are repercussions for failing to take action after a valid claim but none for taking action after a bogus claim. So there is an incentive to take material down fast after any claim but no incentive for due diligence and claim validation before or after the takedown.
You don't stop seeing but your visual attention typically goes hand in hand with what you focus on, except in a few surprise cases of change picked up by your periphery, or your conscious effort to look straight ahead but focus on something peripheral.

It is weird that you consider frontend frameworks programming but CMS frameworks might not be. You could fudge your way through a React tutorial just as much as someone could a Magento tutorial. It's the person not the tools that make you a programmer.

Magento is a fairly complex platform too. It uses lots of very formal software engineering paradigms joined together in a well thought out framework. I would consider it a bit more traditional programming than Vue or React, and if I had a general programming role to fill I would sooner hire a Magento only backend dev than a React only dev. React/Vue are very specialized frontend tools and working with themm doesn't translate all that well to general programming.
It depends on the type of monk. There are certainly plenty of groups which don't contribute back to society.
I would have thought the value of a vehicle in the situations shown in the article would depend on how cleverly it can avoid or respond to things shifting or falling underneath its wheels. After all, when a person walks over rubble and suchlike, one of the most important things after keeping their balance is knowing whether that thing they're about to put their weight on is going to move when they do.

I assume if they had a really solid solution for that, this would have been a video demo rather than a set of 3D renderings.

Still cool, of course - if they're able to make this a reality it'd be really neat.

Bit elitist - the trouble with 1 is they can produce pretty one page sites which then suck when crawled by search engines and 90% of websites out there depend on search.
That agrees with my experience: everything within a cacheline is just as fast, it's only accesses which cross one that are slower; and unless those odd ones are the only accesses that occur, it's better for memory bandwidth to pack everything together.

which particularly x86 is very good at

That's largely because x86 never had aligned instructions, and whose sizes are simply multiples of bytes, so quite early in its development it already ahd efficient ways of extracting the needed set of bytes from memory regardless of alignment.
#2 is still in demand and there are a ton of boutqiue-type firms that make good money by keeping some old Typo3 CMS site alive. However, from a developer perspective, you should aim for #1. It pays more and in worst case you can downgrade to #2 rather easily .
A very tangible reason to care if a degree is regionally accredited is that your degree will transfer to just about any other school. If my bachelors wasn’t regionally accredited I wouldn’t have gotten into my current masters program for example.

[Interview] How Neural Networks and ML Are Making Games More Interesting
As a full-time linux user and occasional gamer, I have been using the AMD open drivers since circa 2010. The improvements have been massive, both in stability and performance. Since the availability of steam, I have been doing all my gaming exclusively on linux, logging a probably unhealthy number of hours on various games (Dota, various iterations of Civilization, City Skylines, Stellaris, etc.).

Not to say the situation is perfect by any means, but the difference from 2012/2014 is night and day.
In the UK which hospital you would go to is nearly 100% based on ease of getting there and the facilities they have on hand.

Sometimes I get to use constraint programming (CP) at $DAYJOB.

For prototying solutions, the MiniZinc language is nice to use, since it is a language for modelling combinatorial optimization problems.

To use a CP solution in an actual product, I prefer to use a solver library in C++ or Java. Typical examples would be Gecode (C++), Choco (Java), or or_tools (C++ with Java bindings). If I had the money to buy an expensive product, IBM CP Optimizer seems to be a really good system with awesome automated search heuristics.

In addition, the ideas and techniques in CP systems are useful for all kinds of optimization tasks, so even if there is not actual CP-system used, I think it is worthwhile to use as a way to think about problems.
When I go to hospital, on the assumption I'm conscious, the last thing on my mind is deciding which doctor I want

Software development is and will be a good career choice for the foreseeable future (until software starts writing itself, which is not likely to happen any time soon). Web development is just a facet of it. If you spend time understanding fundamentals of software development you will not have wasted your time.

Two more interesting questions you should be asking yourself are: 1. Do you love writing sofware, and 2. Are you good at it?

If the answer is yes to both then you're on the right track. If not, you could have a problem down the road.

lol, it takes YEARS to be a good developer. It depends of where you live and what are your expenses and local job market among many other things.

Yeah, but C-style "for" loops are nice, right ? Still, they really are a syntactic sugar for a "while".

The problem is more with a language having fady bits and people using them when they don't make the code clearer, than with syntactic sugar.
It’s a tricky problem. It might be nice if Github tried a bit harder here, but I can’t agree that they should.
Then, you should be targeting lobbyists and politicians. Front line workers (including doctors) are a very poor target for pressure if you want to achieve the same level of care for a cheaper price (including cheaper docs). The only result of your conspirationistic views will be worse care for a higher price.

But, I suppose no one will be able to sway you from your current opinion...
I'm sure that a well-architected Electron app can have perfectly good separation of model and view (and potentially contoller, whatever you mean by that). It's an orthogonal discussion compared to what graphical toolkit to use. As for reinventing the wheel: MVC predates Electron by at least 40 years.
Being able to see my doctor for a health problem on short notice improves my quality of life but it probably doesn’t change outcomes as there is a very low likelihood that my problem is both life threatening and urgent.

Yes, I get that the extension operates within the user's auth realm. But still it should not be able to access data you as a user cannot access. Maybe this is already enough to do damage though.
"Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself. They come through you but not from you, And though they are with you they belong not to you. You may give them your love but not your thoughts, for they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you. For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday. You are the bow from which your children as living arrows are sent forth. The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might that His arrow may go swift and far. Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness; For even as He loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable."

I was in a band for a while, and there can be tension without it needing to derive from egos. I would say all of us were ego-free and I can't remember us ever having any interpersonal conflicts. But we did have different musical inspirations. The lead singer/songwriter/rhythm guitarist loved folk rock, like Bob Dylan. I was more into metal and electronic music. The drummer was a devout punk. Our bassist swore by classic rock.

In addition, I've always been of a very analytical mind, whereas our songwriter has always had a very artistic temperament. We philosophically disagreed about whether music was primarily art or science. But he had the spark of artistic inspiration to write the songs, and I had the music theory backing to write the accompaniment, so that philosophical tension actually made the whole thing work. Then we split to pursue our respective goals and neither of us have done much musically since then.

Yes, your intuition is correct. The way it works in Dart VM is like so:

Each loop has an interruption point somewhere (e.g. in the header). If a very hot loop is found VM would enter runtime at that interruption point, where it would synchronously initiate compilation of an optimized version of the function for OSR at this particular interruption point.

After unoptimized IL is contsructed it is "shaken": a matching interruption point is found in the graph and everything not reachable from it is shaken (which drops all code before the loop).

After then the graph is transformed a bit - for each local variable alive at the interrupt point we introduce artificial parameter - so that we could simply treat OSR substitution kinda like a call.

Then graph is optimized and compiled.

Finally when we return back to the original unoptimized code we would do a tail call to the new optimized version.

(I will cover this in the "Introduction to Dart VM" in more details and with some drawings, when I reach this).
> One example is first patenting the left version of a molecule then patenting the right version (mirror image).

Just a small correction for accuracy; they actually patent the 50/50 mixture of both versions first. And then they patent the purified version that only contains the active enantiomer ("mirror image").

Because of how biology works, turns out that the "wrong" mirror image (that is absent from the new version of the drug) was in fact really inactive, doesn't do anything, and thus offers no advantage over the old version, except being covered by a new patent to milk.

These are the kind of drug research "advances" that the rest of the world is supposedly freeloading off of.

It's not freeloading, it's being dominated by a multi-billion dollar global marketing budget.
Changing the name of the extension resources and any extra elements they add to the page would be enough to stop this.
