Of course he was wrong sometimes, not one or two times. He was wrong thousands of times in the 150 books that wrote. Scientists are wrong and correcting themselves all the time when a better explanation arise.

Lets take in mind that we talk about a man, one single man with not much more than a deductive and logical brain. No fancy lab apparatus or computers here.

This man was hugely influential in logic. Created the sillogisms and developped one of the first logical syntaxes based in the concepts of true and false. "if A is P (is true) and P is C (is true); then A is C". relationships among true and false in double negatives, predicates, etc.

Lay the foundations of economy as a science and economic though. We call it "economy" because one of his disciples coined the term.

Hugely influencial in occidental medicine. Medicine must be evidence-based, deterring magical procedures.

So called the "father of biology". Wrote the first comprehensive treatise about zoology, covering and classifying more than 500 animals. Wrote a similar treatise about botany (mostly lost if i'm not wrong)

Hugely influencial in development of embryology and teratology. Described systematically the development of embryo in chicken and other animals. Developped laws about gestation time and clutch size related with size of animals that are still vigent.

(Most probably) the first cephalopologist or marine biologist. Described the hectocotylus in octopuses and explained his function.

Deducted correctly that all things in the space were moving in closed orbits. Was wrong about putting earth in the center of all universe, and though that orbits were circular; but to be fair the first telescope wouldn't be invented until, dunno, more than 1500 years later or so.

Introduced the phylosophical concept of first motor, "if there is movement in the universe and all that moves is pushed by another moving object, there must be a first cause for the movement of all the planets and things in the universe". The pale ghost of this concept can be still invoked if you repeat "Big bang" six times in front of a telescope's mirror.

Not to mention the thousands of his phylosofical quotes that are fondly repeated still today in lots of powerpoint presentations and motivational posters all around the world.

"It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light" Harvey Dent? not, Aristotle.

All in just a man's life. The man was wrong in many things, but was incredibly smart, influential and prolific.

I don't think they shipped an app for whatsapp yet.

There's a maps app though, but personally I always have my laptop with me anyway, which has considerably more pixels.
You are of course right. I was talking from my perspective. I don’t use Windows but I think Office 365 is the best deal ever, and I appreciate general tools like VSCode, keeping github on track and not changing things, etc.
I wanted to learn a LISP-like language and tried Chicken for a bit and then switched to Racket. Reason: Documentation. I constantly got stuck with Chicken, often because the documentation available is for a previous version. No such problems with Racket and their, imho, excellent guide.

No doubt Chicken is a great language with cool features, it's just not very beginner friendly.
Depends what you were trying to achieve with it; for the various things I've seen it used for a mix of protobuf-in-flat-files, Cassandra, and Spark.
The VSCode plugin supports to "Write queries with IntelliSense". This sounds fantastic. But Ctrl+Space (Trigger Suggest) does not suggest anything useful for me. In what situations does this work?
> The difference is that pilots had been trained and have flown the old one for many years and trained to avoid the unstable conditions for the old 737.

I don't think that's the case. MCAS was added to satisfy a requirement in the airworthiness certifications that requires positive control forces to increase AoA. The lift generated by the engine nacelles caused this to not be the case at high AoA.

None of what has been revealed so far indicates that the pilots had issues related to the symptom, rather they had issues with MCAS. In a way the cure has been worse than the disease.
This is how we got the first working Lisp implementations. John McCarthy specified Lisp in itself, and a graduate student translated it into IBM 704 assembly.

Except for, you know, the part where Rust is actually memory-safe and C++ isn't.
That’s the default semantics, yes.
Yet we have an example of a man practising his religion and living completely ( seemingly ) compatible with the liberal society until he was gunned down. However, you are now saying that it's actually his religion that's the problem.
Having worked w/ apps large & small on Django, Spring boot, and Rails, I'd say that Rails is the easiest framework to be productive in, especially to people new to it. This includes junior devs as well as senior devs - it's just easy to pick up. And it gets easier to use over time to rip out all the cruft, especially with things like Rails API.

Like any language/framework, it has its warts and its weirdness. There are times when it can be very frustrating to deal with it all. But I've felt that feeling working across multiple paradigms, and I'm convinced it's just a reality of software development.

If you're deep into microservices, Rails can be a tough choice, I'll admit. It really depends on your use case. A small-medium sized startup can get a lot done with just a Rails app if your workload is primarily IO based.

Would converting C-- to C/LLVM IR be redundant?
> And yet, Postgres foreign data wrappers exist providing encapsulation to the declarative SQL interface.

I'm not sure what this means. Do you have a reference?

It seems pretty clear that building an efficient query plan depends on having access to the internals of any entities referenced by the query. Encapsulation hides the internal of entities, so the claim seems pretty solid to me.
By the way your article would suggest that car theft is a significantly larger problem in Romania than BG.

Did you try Rails API? It's usually a good replacement for Sinatra apps.
The app updating process in F-Droid is fairly buggy (I can’t tell if I’ve tapped the button or not from the upgrade page and sometimes it just doesn’t work), but in general it is a big improvement.

I’m guessing the “average” person wouldn’t be too happy about losing the Play Store since proprietary apps aren’t available in F-Droid (by design).

>the survey of 2,000 American millennials, commissioned by CBD oil company

It's basically an ad for CBD. "Take this to stop worrying about instagram likes and traffic jams." might shift some units but "Take this to stop giving a shit about climate change." probably wouldn't sit well with the target market.
In the B2B world, nobody pays list. I've seen some incredible discounts off list price, especially when buying in quantity.

One time I was buying some software licenses. List price was $30/seat. We needed 2000 seats. Which would list at $60K. By the time it was all said and done I ended up with 3000 seats for $10K.
>You can't legislate what's obvious and ignore the middle.

That is done successfully all the time. It's nice to have the legal boundary match the line exactly all the time, but if the line isn't known then there's no harm in placing the legal boundary on the conservative side as an interim solution while you work the details out.
Less experience? I mean until now, white supremacist terrorist attacks haven't been at the forefront of counter-terror forces. Why that may be? is another question altogether.

Having a treatment that allows 20 year olds to live healthily to 120 likely helps the contemporary 85 year olds to live a few more years without being dependent on other people. Ageing populations are a huge problem in many first world countries.
>Why would a law be needed to be argued in court?

By the grace of living in a democratic society and not a despotic dictatorship, it is in essentially every western nation the right of any legal person who is accused of breaking a law to request judgement on the matter by the courts.
Heh, from the rise of Rails as the hot new thing to blog posts trying to justify its continued existence, it all went pretty fast.
I'm having flashbacks, I'm not sure I would be able to go the distance on that one.
This is the way most engineering work is certified, actually. A standards bureau creates a standard, the engineering design organization follows it and self-certifies that they did.

Only in case of failure is the self-certification process checked for errors, usually by insurance investigators, because they have the most incentives to do so.

The visible examples of public failures investigated by public agencies are the exception, in my understanding.
I was not aware that existed and it looks like it can improve our situation. Thanks!
To the extent that HTTP/3 is faster/cheaper/better than its predecessors, it should allow ads to be served more cheaply. Combine that with support in the dominant browser (and why wouldn't they, after all they did basically invent it and they have a vested interest in serving ads efficiently) and I'd say HTTP/3 has a pretty good shot at success.

> when creating web applications, starting from scratch or from a minimal base is massively slower

Because every web app is the same CRUD app, right?

Things evolved the last years, I build you any app as fast and create more maintainable code with my stack which consists of small libs than any Rails dev. Don't forget that also a lot of work moved to the front-end, so your daddy's Rails won't help you on that anymore. Web apps are not developed like ten years ago.

Well, this is not always how it works: many factors can lead to a reverse of legislation, such as stonger lobbying, backfire from a government held together by strong opposite ideas, or simply the measure might have solved the problem and a different rule might have been adopted (btw, assuming you are from the US, I think the idea of undoing medicare is a good example).

I have lived in the NL just when the change in squatting legislation was happening (2009-2015). My impression was that more and more parties that were ideologically against it got popular and this changed the agenda of policymakers, given also the pressure estate investors that were hunting for a treasure. But existing squats were definitely well integrated with the cities I lived in (Utrecht, Amsterdam), sign that this law somehow became part of the city identity.
I assumed this history was meticulously reconstructed with a lot of hard work, but apparently Unix was one of the first systems maintained in SCCS.

I guess the part from before SCCS was still meticulously reconstructed?
While you can in theory run CUDA on an Nvidia 1030 GPU (currently around $100) it's really not worth it. The cheapest card actually worth buying for ML is the 1050 Ti, which can be had for around $200.

If your budget is $100 I'd take that money and hunt around for various cloud based solutions. Most have introductory offers and/or cheap/free solutions for hobbyists with modest needs. $100 will go a long way on these services if you're careful. Once you've used up your $100 you'll have a much better idea of what, if anything, you actually need.
> Osama bin Laden never killed anyone. His words were enough to justify his execution by the military of a foreign nation because he engaged in incitement.

Although, I understand your point. However, and I would like to say that I do not know the details of this, OBL was originally charged with the killing of Silvan Becker, a German intelligence agent and his wife Vera in Libya. That was against him specifically. Now, I am not sure if he actually pulled the trigger or was involved in some other way.

> Low meat dishes seem to have a serious branding problem.

I think the way you make this work is using meat for flavor rather than as a centerpiece- a lot of noodle dishes from China do this (e.g. https://thewoksoflife.com/2014/11/dan-dan-noodles/).

Nice to see Kilo LISP pop up here! :)

Yes, it does use images. (SUSPEND 'NAME) creates an image file and KL NAME at the shell prompt will load the image.

The evaluator is basically multiple functions in one, where the variable "m" ("mode") controls which function to apply next. The codes (MHALT, MEXPR, etc) denote the functions. MEXPR means "evaluate any expression", MLIST evaluates the next element of a list, MBETA starts function application, MRETN finishes it, etc. Yes, they implement states on the control stack (mstack).

Yes, I have to agree with this - pgAdmin 3 was a decent tool, whereas pgAdmin 4 is... an abomination.
I administer a medium-sized postgres db, around (now) 110GB of data, and recently had the opportunity to revisit the old .conf file when I redeployed that database to a different server. What I quickly realized was that years of tweaks I had implemented as I learned postgres from various (now outdated) online sources were making it difficult to optimize my new instance.

I decided to start again from scratch. I discovered a handy little utility called pghero and set up it's internal monitoring:

https://github.com/ankane/pghero

I backed up my old .conf replaced it with a default and blew away all my old indices, and fired up the database. Of course, nothing worked well. But step by step, working with postgres' internal tools and pghero, I took a brand new look at every previous assumption and was much more strategic about where and when I created an index and which tuning parameter I tweaked.

Long story short, I was able to knock 30 GB off of the install disk size (based, in large part, on unnecessary duplicate indices), accelerate the most common queries, and everything worked a lot smoother. Plus my postgres installation was no longer fighting old postgres .conf tuning tweaks which were designed for much older versions of postgres.

Just adding my vote for revising your old tuning parameters after your database (and your programmer/administrator) has matured a bit.
Wow, this propaganda is the all over the world. Be very weary of a megacorp pushing its untested products. They are admitting vaccinations dont work because if you are near an unvaccinated you can get sick. So what the fuck does it protect if not from sick people? You shpuld be able to reason a lie like that.
The complexity of a modern economy is more about efficiency than anything else.

If you want a pencil that uses graphite and an eraser, that’s actually fairly easy to construct with the correct raw materials. A single person in the right location and with the right knowledge could have made a single pencil 1,000 years ago, though the pencil would not have been worth the effort. Further, they could not have made 100,000 of them where I could actually buy 100,000 pencils by being part of the modern economy.
I have to admit that living in Europe, the only worry I share with you is the real estate prices.

I recently tried to read a book about depression in Millennials and common treatment options, but had to put it down when it became apparent that I shared none of the very basic fears.

I am much more impacted by the (in my mind) really strong lack of drive to achieve anything my generation is experiencing. Amongst my age group, I know basically two groups - those that have their 2 kids, dog and mortgage to pay off forever, or those actually trying to find some purpose in their work.

IMO, there is a real lack of a healthy middle ground.
Hong Kong's MTR has consistently been the most well run private transport service I have had the privilege of riding. (I could be mistaken, the MTR is privatised, right? I do know all the buses are.)

The only surprise I read was that they consider the CBTC signal system as outdated and in need of replacement. In fact, it might've been here where I read an article about how New York (or perhaps Chicago) should switch to CBTC, but can't for a number of legacy reasons.
No it doesn't. Your mass increases the faster you go, so that more and more energy needs to be expended to accelerate more. At 50% light speed, you're 15% heavier. At 90% light speed, you're 129% heavier. At 99% light speed, you're 608% heavier. Your mass goes to infinity as you approach the speed of light, which is why the speed of light is unattainable for objects that have mass.
I use Grails which is very similar to Rails and a lot easier and productive than Spring Boot. Good defaults makes application building a much smoother experience. Grails is still Spring Boot, and you can still code like it was a pure Spring Boot application.

Grails has its own ORM called GORM, which can use several different backends like Hibernate/MongoDB

Groovy is a great language, with the best from dynamic languages and yet still very similar to Java. I would say there is no learning curve for Java developers with Groovy.

Grails has also been highly optimized the last few years and runs great on systems with 1 vcpu and 256MB RAM. Grails also has a great and friendly community, come and say hello in our Slack channel https://grails-slack.cfapps.io/
I'm really glad to hear that. This lightweight design is great.

Maybe it shouldn't be for the news sites only. I make http://wordsandbuttons.online in this spirit, too. It's not text only, it has interactive plots, and quizzes, and everything. But the core idea: give people only what they come for, - works well for it as well. Since the pages are in tenths of KB, I pay for the cheapest hosting possible and it still holds "slashdot effect".
Aaronharder is right, it is called Kilo LISP, because it's code size is measured in kilo bytes. In fact the code contracted a bit since the first version.

That being said, I like S4M's explanation, too!
Interesting. Can this be addressed by ensuring the API of the encapsulated subsystem is sufficiently rich to provide what is needed by the declarative query planner? That is, the API allows the encapsulated subsystem to describe its contents in a way that supports query planning (e.g. shape of the contained data, supported operators, and general statistics), without having to reveal its exact implementation (columnar v row store, distributed v centralized storage, exact file format used, etc)?

Perhaps the evolving shape of that API as the query planner becomes more capable (and therefore requires more knowledge) is what was meant by “are in tension”.

Tension isn’t a bad thing. My favorite art is all about tension. Life is at its most immediate and palpable in the presence of tension.
Thanks. I didn't see that up front, and was more concerned about the timed aspect of our meeting/review, but I'll keep it in mind. Thanks for the tool!
I suspect that it might have also been considered as a cover up in the style of "carrots improve eyesight" for radar deception. Deliberate vaguely "plausible" bullshit.

Of course given they sent the Loony Toons division after Castro it is possible they are simply a bunch of monsterous incompetents.
But are you sure it is an allowed use of the API?

According to https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answ... an allowed use of the API is "connected device companion apps that enable sending and receiving of SMS or calls".

Did KDE Connect allow sending and receiving SMS from your PC? The only thing I see in the app description is getting "notifications for incoming calls and SMS messages", which might have been insufficient.
Probably war.

Which highlights one of the bigger problems with Rails, your app _is_ Rails. In frameworks like Phoenix your application is a separate entity, completely ignorant of whatever UI framework you're using to talk to users.
It's not necessarily terrible. The software industry obviously has a strong financial interest in avoiding tech debt. Surely any reasonable software company with the long view would invest in a solid architecture, well defined processes..

The insanity is hidden somewhere here. Peekaboo - there it is..
