You’re flip flopping all over the place with your descriptions of tests. Broadly speaking, There are two types of tests being discussed here. Those are positive tests and negative tests.

Positive being that the code does what you expect under normal operation. Those you’d obviously need in any language

Negative tests are, amongst other things, checking that your functions behave correctly when you put garbage in. If your compiler flat out refuses to send a string type to a function that is designed to accept an integer then you’re already covering a whole class of bugs without needing to write specific tests for it.
I think these illustrations are very nice, but they might have too much "identity" to be generally applicable.
Yeah to me Kirkland on the label just means that Costco had a hand in selecting and vetting the product, and since they typically focus on carrying one kind of a certain product, I can assume the quality standards are high enough.

I don't care who actually made it, as long as it does what it says it does
“It’s easy to do it if you build your own dependency management system” doesn’t sound like it’s easy to do it.
Define „so many”. I personally know of only one such person, and his low tech idea (diving school in Egypt) failed so that he had to go back to tech.
No photos?!
I have far more trust in Kirkland Signature products, and Costco in general, than Amazon Basics. Costco has a long history of treating customers and it’s employees well, and they seem less shady to me.
I'm not sure what you're suggesting - that we only award patents in cases where clear evidence of hard work can be provided?
I actually have a different concern then "screen time" which is just "play space".

High density living in cities is dreadful for providing enough outdoors / free activity space for kids to be kids - too much noise (or a risk of them making too much noise), too much communal property they shouldn't damage or can't work on.

Growing up, I have memories of my dad building things around the house (including our cubby house), having a sandpit etc. How do you do any of that in an apartment in the city? How do you even have reasonable transit distances to places you can do those things?
I've been doing some Java lately, and it seems to me like Java libraries are often doing (and making the programmer do) a lot of work just to get back the dynamism that Python has by default. Many kinds of errors are only detectable at runtime:

* dependency injection errors,

* template errors,

* magic annotation malfunctions, etc.

The last one in particular actually seems less safe than Python's decorator mechanism. Java splits it in two parts, so that the annotation classes used at compile time are separate from the library that will process them to actually do something. If the latter part is somehow broken, the code will just do nothing, so you don't even get a runtime error.

In Python, decorators are just functions that serve as annotations as well as doing the actual work. There is usually no separate processing part that can go missing. I've never encountered similar problems in Python.
The thing is, there are two possible extremes:

1. Our design is complete, error-free and designed to stand the tests of time. It will be in common use, largely unchanged, in 40 years time. The TCP of the 2010s. There is widespread industry support. We want to move to the application layer to ease the initial roll-out.

2. Our design will need to change every few years, even we authors don't think it's finished. This is a Google-only project and most vendors are refusing to support it as they think it's badly designed crap. The ActiveX of the 2010s. We want to move to the application layer so we can force it through without anyone else's support.

Where are we on the spectrum between those two options? I don't know.
My SO uses 5000K lights for drawing, otherwise the colors are off in sunlight and in photos.

I also prefer outdoor lighting to be on the hotter side - low temperature lights to me look too much like sodium lamps.
I know Google cloud storage does, https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/access-control/signed-....

I wouldn't be surprised if azure had a similar feature.
No, it's really more about the ecosystem and tooling being very stable. Code you've written 6 years ago will most probably work with the current version of Go + updated libraries.
I’m working in a team of 5 people who has never used go prior to 9 months ago and had no training in it and we’ve just been unbelievably productive in it. We came to it from a combination of python and javascript backgrounds and have no problems collaborating or jumping into each other’s code.

To me the main advantage of it is that the small number of primitives and simple syntax forces people to in general be very explicit about what you’re doing. The code almost doesn’t need comments.
Actual w t f reading those.

Wonder if any of the people commenting there have kids of their own.

Well people in all of the free world have been largely living in cities for 2-3 generations now, what's new here?
This article strongly evokes the Primer in Neal Stephenson's The Diamond Age. I wonder to what extent the Element Care folks think about that when designing their avatars and their interaction policies.

It's stunning how prescient Neal Stephenson's writings have been, both in terms of technological progression and also our human responses to those progressions.
Use aXe for automated tests and test everything manually with JAWS + Firefox (most popular screen reader Desktop combination) and iOS VoiceOver (most troubling mobile issues in my experience).

If you can afford in your project, use a external service that tests with people with different disabilities.

Can this do recording, too? I'm wondering how to record and process rodent vocalizations in ultrasound (around 20khz) using the cheapest way possible, akin to the "Deep Squeak" project. There are some interesting applications in lab animal welfare, psychology and even training for land mine or TBC detection.

High frequency measurement microphones are very expensive. If there was a way to churn a high sampling rate ADC through an FFT inside an FPGA, that would help a lot and it may be simpler or cheaper than for more sophisticated measurements. But beyond basic things like Nyquist frequency I don't really know what I'd need in a microphone and the analog/digital backend...
The original comment that is evidently so objectionable mentioned keeping a language (and by implication its libraries) in one's head. It's a known fact that this type of knowledge is use-it-or-lose-it. So drawing on it only occasionally is terribly suboptimal.
try java.
no, seriously.
java and a good IDE (netbeans or eclipse, not some editors like vscode) are a godsend to handle "bigger" project.
It's absolutely fast to compile and insanely on-the-fly static checks all over the place.
On the Example Script page (https://iterm2.com/python-api/tutorial/example.html) it says that the script communicates with the application using websockets ("The underlying implementation uses Google protobuf and websockets"). This makes me think that it could support other languages and ways of scripting it in the future.
There is a city playground 3 minutes walk from my apartment with a sandpit, swings, and climbing structures. Almost always, there is another kid there for mine to play with. We go every day it is warm enough.

This is not unusual in Manhattan. Pick any apartment and walk five minutes in every direction. You'll find a playground.

In the winter we take the subway 20 minutes to a large indoor complex with better equipment and hundreds of other children. They are not quiet!

Of all the places we go, his favorite is the subway, where he gets to say Hi! and Bye! to lots of people.

I dread the loneliness of the burbs.
It is not necessarily bad. Moving complex stuff to user space can be good sometimes. There are things this would break like splice but also allows much tighter integration with applications because you can get and set state without system calls. As you layer on more complex app level adaptations to connection failures having it in user space means the client has the same capabilities irregardless of platform which is important so that both client and server can make mutual complimentary adaptations to the same conditions. This stuff is not really needed for web, it is mostly video conferencing type stuff that gets the biggest benefit. Googs new game service for instance.
My favourite language is guile scheme which makes me all too familiar with your feelings.

Not only that: embedding python is a shitty experience compared to embedding lua or guile, and you have to work around the fact that python has no threads and that it is borderline impossible to run multiple independent interpreters in the same process.
I believe that we will see ossification of QUIC eventually too. TCP has been around for decades, anything around that long is going to have issues rolling out new changes in a backwards compatible way. TLS 1.3 and the lengths it had to go to with backwards compatibility with middleboxes is another good example.

I hope that QUIC has used these lessons from TCP and TLS to make changes in the future as easy and effective as possible, but I’m sure it’ll still have its limits.
That was only example from my life. Other episodes with the same outcome were too much partying in college, sleep deprivation because cool when a teen. I guess we all have examples where we are totally outside a normal balanced state of mind with detrimental effects to our mental well-being!

My point was more generally that in person IQ is constant but life factors and choices can lead to sub-optimal outcomes intelligence wise.
> I began to think that a strong type system

You’re confusing static/dynamic and strong/weak. Python is a strongly typed language, but also is dynamicly typed language.

Need proof? Try doing this:

a = 3

b = “3”

c = a + b

> having to use lots of assert(isinstance(arg, type))

Python has type hinting now, try using a current version of Python and this isn’t needed.
> The ability for PJPEGs to offer low-resolution ‘previews’ of an image as it loads improves perceived performance – users can feel like the image is loading faster compared to adaptive images.

My understanding was that progressive JPEG actually feels slower, since users are less sure when the image has finished loading, and are thus best avoided in most cases.

Yes; this is why the feature is the Cloudimage server, not the JS lib.
Building permanent fixtures is right out if you don’t have a yard, this is true. However the urban environment offers a lot of other beneficial things that kids in the suburbs rarely experience (as one who grew up there): regular interaction with people from different racial and socioeconomic backgrounds, lots of walking and use of shared transportation resources, and a shot at earlier independence, since you don’t have to drive to get where you’re going. Also, we do have parks, they just aren’t as big as the ones in the burbs. On the other hand, I take my kids to the park far more often than I was taken as a child, since it’s less than a five minute walk away.

Anyway, it’s fine to worry but personally I’d try to hold off until there’s some empirical evidence that there is a problem. If there is (“study shows kids raised in city are maladjusted” — after controlling for all other variables), I’m not aware of it.
The way I understand it is that you can do a lot of DSP related work in the FPGA such that a Microcontroller board can do more sophisticated stuff than otherwise.

For makers and hobbyists, the power efficiency is less of an issue, in general. But FPGAs may enable a battery powered application where it wouldn't be possible otherwise.

Also, for learning advanced FPGA programming, audio and DSP seem to be a fruitful playground.
The media is just entertainment now if you're in taking that crud you're literally being entertained that's not news. James traficant was right the American Media is under the control of foreign entities they should be the ones being investigated who owns these media outlets why do they seem to all have an agenda why are they so biased? Keep up the work because you just handed Trump another 4 years.
> The fact you're expressing it here is a more an attempt to step-around the reality that the US refuses to confront it's fear of having a strong government.

This presumes that strong governments don't deserve a critical eye. It's not hard to find contemporary examples worldwide and historical examples in any country.
True, but a yaw dampener is sort of like a steady cam, it isn't going to over-rule a pilot's rudder input.

No, but a rudder hardover might ;). The 747 and 767 were sometimes equipped with stick pushers as well.

Perhaps Firefox should finally get around to not being a destroyer of performance, stability and battery life on a large subset of MacBooks, so people such as myself can use it.
Depends where you go. Some cities are very social while others are not. Equally some suburbs are social and others are not.
I don't think giving them money should be about "getting people back on track" or anything similar. It's just to give them money for a beer, a burger or something to ease their day. Personally, I think there will always be people who doesn't fit into society. It's easier if we don't expect them to open a savings account with the 20 bucks we gave them, and just realize that it goes towards getting drunk/getting something to eat to numb the absolute mess their lives might be.
> So, what Amazon did was aid and abet tax fraud...

I don't see how Amazon can be held responsible for its customers' failing to pay use tax. It wasn't Amazon's obligation to ensure it was paid or even to inform their customers of the requirement to pay it.
It makes you feel like you are the person about to stay in the place, only to find out that it's not allowed.
It's nowhere near the capabilities of a good Java IDE; being Python, it's very heuristic based rather than definitive. I know that searching for a variable in Java would get me all instances, no ifs no buts. Not so with Pycharm (or any Python IDE).

I support the notion that Python is unsuitable for larger codebases with all my heart.
Exercise is good, but that article annoyed me. It noted various exercise induced changes in the brain and behavior--increased sensitivity to stimuli, increased neurogenesis, more connectivity, etc-- without actually saying why those things are good. increased connectivity between brain regions doesn't have to be good, and you can be too sensitive and alert to stimuli
> Rust is developed by a community, and was started by Mozilla. Go development seems to be de facto controlled by Google, who originated the language. I'd rather bet my non-work future on a language that isn't controlled by a huge corporation, especially one of the main players in today's surveillance economy.

Anyone else agree with this view ? Programming languages should be choosen based on technical merits, rather than who is behind it. Is there a lesson from history that I am missing ?
I used to work for a hotel company. When I moved to NYC, I had the option of getting the employee rate for my rooms while I was getting settled. For the same price, I got an Airbnb that was walking distance from the office.

The host had soft partitioned her apartment and was renting out the bedroom. Because it was “owner occupied” I don’t believe it is illegal. By being present, she could ensure I kept to the social norms of the building.

Airbnb in NYC isn’t just tourists having raves in quiet apartments. There are socially acceptable use cases that don’t result in housing shortages or significant downsides to current residents. I wish more people could accept nuance in the debate.
...and nothing of value would be lost. A minor sacrifice to do good.
> Is there a god-given “just” price

Incidentally, you can give up on God without giving up on justice. This is in fact the basis of the law in countries without state-sanctioned religions: coming up with shared axioms of just behavior and reasoning from there. So yes, there are means by which one can define just and unjust prices. If someone is hanging from a precipice by a thread he may agree that the price of his life is all his wealth and the value of his future labor. This does not mean that this is a just price for saving him. Maybe it is, but that depends on your axioms of justice.
What kind of audio output exactly? How many? A hardwired headphone jack (of which there are various type) would take up space and be useless to many users.

Microcontroller-based audio projects often use i2s for audio. Some don't output anything and just listen.
They are editable, so you can fix that. I do think they hit an odd middle ground of being too complex to use in apps, yet too simple to use in content. But they are free, so I'm appreciative of the work that went into it, even if I don't personally have a use for them.

People have been living in cities for centuries. Along with people, they tend to have the highest density of places like libraries, parks and museums. Those all seem like great places for kids to learn and explore.

Also, not everyone in a city lives in an apartment. Condos and single-family-homes typically include an outdoor space.
The point is that your example will not break anything until run time, unless some static analysis tools are deployed (which are much more limited compared to what a compiler can achieve).
I would expect making a pro-ISIS video/tweet to leave me without additional molestation from the government, yes

If you made pro-ISIS materials, you can expect the US government to closely monitor you, and quite likely attempt to entrap you.[1]

If you made large numbers of pro-ISIS videos, even if you were a US citizen, there would be a strong possibility that you would be killed [2]

Perceived lower prices is good for Amazon.com.

If customers think amazon.com has great value, they will buy more at amazon.com without thinking which allows them to sell their marketplace to vendors because if you're selling something you want to be where the buyers are.

If Amazon.com can convert those merchants to use Amazon.com ware houses and prime shipping, it can help create a self-sustaining ecosystem (sorry I hate this word as well but I can't think of a better one).

I guess I define sexuality in the proper literal sense as "Who you have sex with" vs "Who you find attractive. Because when framed that way, attractive becomes subjectively defined.

Sexually attractive? Well yes, if you're humping it you find it sexually attractive.

Psychologically attractive? Only if you have some kind of complex against being labeled 'homosexual' or 'bisexual' while still engaging in coutius with other people of the same sex.

Emotionally/Intellectually attractive? Well, personally I don't find myself sexually attracted to people (and in effect, things) whom I can't satisfactorily engage with on an intellectual and emotional level. I know some people are different and will fuck anything that moves. I've had people tell me so themselves. But I don't think the "Men Who Have Sex With Men" label discusses intellectual stimulation as a stipulation.

From https://www.inc.com/yazin-akkawi/what-science-fiction-has-ta...

"Shortly thereafter, in 1992, just as Berners-Lee's World Wide Web had come to fruition, Neal Stephenson was inspired by the recent invention, which led to him publishing Snow Crash, a science-fiction novel that illustrated much of today's online life, including a virtual reality where people meet, do business, and play.

Even today, many of today's greatest innovators reference Snow Crash as inspiration for their work. Google co-founder Sergey Brin named the book as one of his favorite novels. Google Earth designer Avi Bar-Zeev has said he was inspired by Stephenson's ideas. At Facebook, the book, alongside Ernest Cline's Ready Player One, is also given to anyone who starts a job at the virtual-reality company Oculus.

What's funny, Stephenson, who is now the Chief Futurist at the VR startup Magic Leap, told Vanity Fair that he was just "making shit up" when he wrote the novel.
