The actually confusing part is that && has two different meanings:

Rvalue reference, the passed value either has no memory location yet or has a memory location that won't be accessed anymore (e.g. Marked with std::move)

void foo(int&& a)

Universal reference. `a` is inferred as an rvalue reference if it is initialized with an rvalue and a normal reference otherwise:

template <class T> void foo(T&& a)

So && with type deduction tries to forward rvalue-ness. It does a terrible job, though, which is why std::forward exists.
There was also a functional reason to eliminate the eject button: a somewhat common problem 'back in the day' was that users would remove/eject floppy discs before they were done being written to. This could cause corruption since there could be several seconds of writing after they clicked the save button or copied a file. Even more fun were when applications or the OS would write for a bit, stop for a couple seconds (and at this point some users would see the disc light turn off and eject the disc) to do some other processing then start writing again. Having the computer control when a disc could be ejected did serve a purpose.

Scripts are definitely not configuration file.

I would say the line is Turing-completeness.

For me, DSL are half way between configuration files and scripts. If they are not Turing complete they are configuration languages. If they are, then they are programming language (with a specific use case).

And I think that it is usually a bad idea to have configuration files in Turing complete languages (with exceptions, it can certainly be done well).

At least in my country, two years ago (presumably when avs733 was buying his car) if you wanted an all-electric vehicle with >150 mile range, you had to spend £90,000 on a Tesla Model S.

All the other manufacturers' cars (Renault Zoe, BMW i3, Nissan Leaf, VW e-Golf) were 145 mile range or less.

It's only recently that EVs like the Hyundai Kona (£30k for 245 miles) and the Jaguar I-Pace (£61k for 235 miles) have come on the market.
I think you would see electric cars take off if those without garages or driveways had a way to charge them nightly. I know I would have one on my list. Perhaps use the government buyers incentive to instead give a write down to developers to install charging stations in their parking lots.

Cons:

- Startups are disorganized

- Most startups fail because they make a stupid product no one wants and the team is awful

- Startups pay below what a large company can afford and often pay below market rate

- Startups will try to low ball you on equity. Don't start with me about negotiating. If they refuse to negotiate, you have your choice of no meaningful equity or working somewhere else. This is often the case.

- Insane sociopath founders who also are terrible at their jobs

- Startups are full of startup bros who are fucking insane sociopath assholes in general. Why the fuck would you want to play ping pong during normal business hours, you stupid fucking asshole? We're trying to build a business here.

- Startups idolize hustle porn

- Startups are increasingly choosing to not even exit which defeats the entire fucking purpose of working there

Pros

- Things are so disorganized that you if you accidentally fuck up, no one might even notice

- If you win the lottery, you'll almost make up for the money you could have made working at Google or some other big company

Corn, wheat, rye, oats, beans and soy are staple foods for humans and are what is often fed to the animals we intensively farm.

What a world we live in
I don't dispute any comparison with Germany in particular as I have been there only for brief periods, and not for at least a decade. But I just can't see any country I've visited or lived in, whether in Western Europe or North America, getting anywhere close to the combined levels of public safety, quality affordable healthcare, excellent ubiquitous transportation, education, technology, extremely reasonable cost of living ( much as economists fear and malign deflation, much as foreigners keep falsely claiming Tokyo is expensive.. ), lack of social unrest, lack of inequality, lack of terrorism, lack of unemployment, etc.

Japan is not perfect, and has massive social problems, for sure. Pervasive and severe alcoholism, karoshi, women are second-class citizens, et al. A quake, a typhoon, or a volcano might wreck lives every so often. Not everything is cheerful and rosy.

But leave the economy and aging society out of it. For thirty years I've been listening to the aging problem and the stagnating economy. And every single year I see our lives and the lives of those around us not getting worse at the very least, and mostly improving, if ever so slightly.

I can't say the same for anyone I know in the States or Europe, especially from 2008 until now.

> Demand for the Bolt is substantially outstripping supply in Europe, because high fuel costs mean that pure EVs already have a lower TCO than ICE vehicles; It's likely that GM can achieve profitability simply by ramping up production, assuming that their battery suppliers can keep up with demand.

GM does not sell the Bolt in Europe at all. It was originally sold as the Opel Ampera, but GM sold their interest in Opel. So demand in Europe is higher than the non-existent supply.

The Bolts battery and power train come from LG and apparently they contracted for 30,000 units or less annually. This may not be a problem for GM as US Bolt sales have not been great, 23,279 units in 2017, dropping to 18,019 in 2018. I think they have also sold several hundred units in Korea.

Currently Autotrader.com shows several new Bolts near me (California Bay Area) being offered at discounts of more than $4,000 from MSRP. So it looks like demand is soft even with the full Federal tax credit and the California EV rebate. Unfortunately for the Bolt, GM will lose the full Federal tax credit on April 1 raising the price of the Bolt by $3,750.

Personally, I'm disappointed by GM's failure to promote the Bolt and by it's low sales. I love my Chevy Spark EV and I like my Honda Fit, but it seems an overpriced weirder looking Honda Fit with a Chevy badge is not the way forward even if it is electric. I wanted to like the Bolt, it's not a bad car, I really prefer small but tall hatches, and am committed to electric vehicles and like to live frugally. After five great years with the Spark EV I'm not even afraid to buy a GM car. In other words, I'm probably the ideal Bolt customer. Which should make GM very concerned by the fact that I recently bought a Model 3 instead and am selling the Honda.

> overwhelming majority of scientists claim that consuming meat in quantities we do in North America is not good for health

Does your skepticism (which by the way does not really disprove anything what the scientist who wrote this article says, and rather simply tries to discredit it) also extend to these "overwhelming majority of scientists"? Because if it did you will understand that nutrition epidemiology studies are not scientific experiments; they are wildly inaccurate, questionnaire-based guesses (hypotheses) about the possible connections between foods and diseases. This approach has been widely criticized as scientifically invalid [see here(1) and here(2)], yet continues to be used by influential researchers at prestigious institutions.
Even if you think epidemiological methods are sound, at best they can only generate hypotheses that then need to be tested in clinical trials. Instead, these hypotheses are often prematurely trumpeted to the public as implicit fact in the form of media headlines, dietary guidelines, and well-placed commission reports like this one.

Tragically, more than 80%(3) of these guesses are later proved wrong in clinical trials. With a failure rate this high, nutrition epidemiologists would be better off flipping a coin to decide which foods cause human disease.

They promised Mac Pro successors in 2019, and Mac to ARM transition in 2020.?

I still think all these are negotiating tactics. The Mac is now primarily a prosumer and pro devices only. Apple should milk it for as long as possible with spec update now and then. The message to Intel's new CEO if you don't give us better pricing, we will move to ARM ( along with our own 5G Modem ). My guess is that since Intel's new CEO is a Finance Guy, lowering prices isn't something he will do. And 5G Modem is also one of those business that makes little to no margin from Intel's perspective. Intel's ex CSO Aicha Evans, the person responsible for getting the Modem business moving despite internal pressure against it, has also left Intel.

Or may be Apple really do have a Grand plan. Apple is one of the largest buyer of servers. May be the ARM N1 allows them to go top to bottom ARM. From Devices to Servers. ( And the return of XServe... I can only dream of it )

It’s really not that programmers are more “valued” and everyone who isn’t paying them enough money to buy a new house yearly isn’t properly appreciating them. It’s that one country can afford to pay more, and it’s partly enabled by a massive wealth disparity.

Being surprised is strange. It’s like being surprised that people get paid less in Poland and that companies won’t pay as much for a programmer there. Nobody has the money to pay for $300000/year programmers in Poland. It’s the same virtually everywhere except incredibly expensive corners of the world, like parts of America and Switzerland.

Genetic pollution has always existed - humans have a bunch of dead viral code fragments in their DNA. Trying to remain "unpolluted" is more an OCD ideology than anything actually possible. And given all of the things out there which lead to mutations. It is just one od many which is how adaptations happen - the few beneficial ones catching on.

Not to mention complex systems are basically impossible to /not/ meddle with. Fish have accidentally been bred smaller because of practices to prevent depletion by giving immature ones a chance to grow to adulthood. Heck there is evidence that fear of humans is bred in animals.

As your parent comment suggested, the human generation cycle is not measured in days and it would need hundreds of years to manifest such a trait in the population. Also, this impacts testing as well, so development cycles will be slow too. What you are probably thinking of is a virus infection that proliferates a certain trait. However within 2 or 3 virus generations, evolution will discover that the virus is better off without that trait and will get rid of it. So your mad engineer will not achieve much.

> Could we undo it? Since CRISPR modifications have side effects, would we feel safe trying to undo it? Where would we draw the line?

We do not even know how to do what you are proposing, so why should we know how to undo it? The only answer here I can give you is that we do not seem to see gene drives in nature a lot. If such a powerful tool would exist, evolution (aka selfish genes) would certainly want to use it but at the same time become very inventive to find strategies against it. For example, endogenous retroviruses are a thing, but we still do not see them in action much.

At some point in the past few years, KitchenAid products replaced steel internals with plastic ones. You still have a big honkin' powerful-looking mixer or blender, but it breaks just around when the warranty expires.

On the other hand, they still have a reputation for products which last forever, as their products did until a few years ago. That allows for obscene markups and short-term profits.

I'm not sure when the change happened. You can see it in Amazon reviews, though (and my own products; I have a broken mixer and, stupidly, two broken blenders, both with powerful-looking steel or cast-iron externals).
