Never had 200ms lag on stock Windows. I'd suspect 3rd party antivirus or data loss prevention software to slow down everything except WSL console. Many AVs/DLPs still can't look into WSL. They are all piece of crap rendering even powerful PCs completely unusable, eating lots of processor cycles and disk throughput in kernel, thus not visible to Task Manager.
AFAIK GTK-2 stopped being officially supported as soon as GTK was released. Though there does still seem to be activity in the git repo https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/tree/gtk-2-24

In any case MATE migrated to GTK-3 some time ago, as of MATE 1.18 https://mate-desktop.org/blog/2017-03-13-mate-1-18-released/

Oh, and GTK-4 is coming soon...

Same here. I've never owned an automatic and I don't think I ever will.

And when I do drive an automatic, I end up driving it like a manual anyway. I can't resist downshifting when slowing down.
> The article author’s point about using additional limbs making it harder to text and drive is well taken

That point is nonsense. Changing gear is almost completely automatic and takes very little time. Also completely inapplicable on motorways where you're basically always in 5th .
A process that corrects for biases against autistics - such as lack of eye contact - would be more accurate only for assessing autistics.

Ok but we agree. There’s a surface modularity in terms of syntax but anything introducing nonlinear covariance among variables is a death sentence absent reparametrization. The latter strategy is often formulaic and could be automated but the antimodularity remains
I agree with your first sentence, but that's about it. What I see on HN and Reddit when "C word" comes up is endless bashing (some of which are perfectly legitimate criticism btw) and ignorance. Anyone who dares ask for evidence, proof, or even just basic objecticity commonly observed in discussions of other topics, are met with personal attacks and shill accusations. Attempts at pointing out the hypocrisy and double standards are almost always silenced by yelling "this is whataboutism" ad nauseam.
I’d prefer to waste the resources of an airline or Boeing, rather than the kind of “waste of resources” in losing whole plane loads of human beings. Turning off MCAS solves one problem and trades it in for another, it is not a waste of resources to solve all of the relevant problems.

What is a waste is pretending that wasted resources is the worst thing that can happen here when we have two fatal crashes being investigated.
"maintain ragged edge, lost half my readership"

Uhhh, really? Love to see the A-B test. Or anyone who is so "disturbed" by ragged edges that they'll stop reading and is willing to speak up about it. Sorry, but I think you are making that up. That is an absurd claim.

Given that there was a second crash , similar to the first, I don't think this argument holds.
It may just be a limitation of the slides rather than the full presentation, but this is almost entirely about the audio synthesis side. There is nearly nothing specific to GPUs or shaders that I can see.

So fair warning: if, like me, you already know the fundamentals of audio and synthesis (and it starts with "what's a sine" and "how does 440Hz map to a piano), but were interested in the shader part, there's not much here for you.
My company, which is small, gets these forged invoices from time to time.

Some of them are pretty good but we're smaller so we're able to see that we're not actually doing business with these companies.
Yes, forgive me for using logic. I should stick to writing snarky comments like yours...

Rust is a compiler. It needs to make machine language somehow. No one suggested writing assembly or machine language directly, but at least if they did, then they wouldn't be able to play a shell game and point their fingers at everything but the actual problem.
I'm currently working with HTTP/2 (more specifically HAS with HTTP/2 Server Push) and it's just a huge pain to find a high-level library that can help with this. I fear that it'll take even longer for HTTP/3 to be adopted or HTTP/2 might just be skipped altogether. Why are there so many server-side implementations available for a variety of languages though many still lack some features or a client-side implementation altogether?

I drove stick shifts, by choice, for 30 years. in December, I traded one in for an electric car that can be set to have significant regenerative braking upon throttle lift. I don't miss a thing about the stick, and it's 100x better than the lack of throttle responsiveness that I experience whenever I rent a car with an automatic (in the US, it's nearly impossible to rent a car with a manual transmission at a "normal" rental place.)

Right, that's what I was saying. Python does do something with annotations, so you don't get the mysterious magic malfunction that you can get in Java.
It's not clear to me that ancient smiths making blades out of meteoric iron were aware of the connection between streak of light in the sky phenomena and the iron/nickel stones they found on the ground and discovered to be suitable for making blades.

Most meteoric iron probably fell long before it was used. For instance the Cape York meteorite used by the Inuit for making blades fell 10,000 years ago. That's many thousands of years before the Inuit are believed to be in Greenland.

I believe the slowdown is due to the clink prompt running external programs in order to find git status etc. I run clink without ConEmu (cmdr is a pack of both with some config) and recently redid the prompt to make it less functional but MUCH faster.

I basically changed the config.lua file to use clink.get_cwd() instead of pwd(), and to

local HEADfile = io.open(git_dir.."/HEAD")
if not HEADfile then return false end
local git_branch = HEADfile:read():match('ref: refs/heads/(.*)')
HEADfile:close()
return colors.git_dirty .. " (" .. git_branch .. ")"

to find the current git branch if any. Less functional and more potential for errors (detached heads or such) but for my case it's very worth it.
I'm not an expert coder by any stretch of the imagination, but the linter built into Pycharm does a decent job of identifying the most egregious typing errors, IMHO.

I think a lot of it really comes down to how much domain knowledge you have with respect to the problem you're trying to solve. I tend to have to process a lot of data from unknown sources, with unknown and inconsistent encoding.

Most errors either show up immediately in Pycharm when I'm coding, within the first few moments of running the program, or two weeks later when it encounters a bizarre batch of records in the 15 millionth row of the database I'm processing or some strange network error that I neglected to foresee.

I personally don't see how compile time typechecking would make any difference to that latter set of errors (which are solely due to my lack of foresight on all the weird ways people find to handle data), and the first two sets of errors are usually resolved in the testing phase of initial program debugging.
Oh I know what it is, I just think it’s completely wrong to apply to Europe pre WWI. How a culture that explored and conquered almost the entire world had a “slave morality” because of the beatitudes or something was always baffling. What would be interesting is applying it to today’s secular Europe.
>I'm not sure there's a way out of this without society as a whole moving away from money as the value of all things.

The reason we do not already live in the dystopia you describe is that money is not actually believed to be the value of all things. People do not usually act as if it is.

This is the opinion of a psychiatrist who loves driving stick shift. I'd much rather hear from an actuary or an automotive engineer on this topic.

> I realized I wasn’t watching the backup camera, nor was I looking out of the rear window. I was only listening for those “audible proximity alerts”

Ah, so this person, in addition to not being an expert on the topic, is a terrible driver. Maybe instead of giving them space for an opinion piece, we should be looking into whether they should have a driver's license.

Lack of attention is a real problem. So maybe the right answer is a heavy investment in buses and trains where most people don't have to be wasting their lives paying attention to driving.

Plus it doesn't matter if stick shift makes drivers safer. They're going away. Transmissions are a way of working around the inadequacies of internal combustion engines. Electric motors don't need them.
So, I discovered this the other day: apparently, there's a guy on YouTube who's reconstructing the DKC tracks using the original synthesizer and music instruction data ripped from the game. [It sounds really good!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5rAjOjTGtc)

I run uBlock on Firefox on latest Android. This has happened occasionally in my memory for quite a while. It seems to only be on news sites, though memory may be unreliable there.

Not at all. I'm saying that those annoying processes are intended to provide enough information to match up legitimate purchase orders to goods/services receipt to invoices.

Whether AP uses that information is a related but distinct matter. The processes are a necessary, but not sufficient, condition.

Bitmapped images should be full size. Extracting proper vector graphics is a work in progress: https://github.com/arxiv-vanity/engrafo/issues/247

If you want to extract figures/images from PDFs, the best way to do it is to use Adobe Illustrator (or equivalent... Inkscape maybe?). That’ll let you extract full sized bitmapped graphics or arbitrary parts of the PDF as SVG vector images.

> it's not the state's role to raise our children

Why not? "It takes a village to raise a child", they say. The state is the embodiment of communal action.

> It's only role should be to make sure the kids are not abused

Where is the line between abuse (where the state should intervene) and simply neglectful or poor parenting (which can be very damaging)?
What killed me more is how Unity was basically just a rrally bad clone of Gnome 3 and I find it so unecessary. Gnome 3 is extendable in ways Unity never achieved. I wish they had spent their efforts just making Gnome 3 extendable for future releases not just fork it immediately.

I dont mind Unity but I can get a similar enough experience just using Gnome 3.

I do have to agree though Gnome 3 is a whole other DE than Gnome 2. You either have to use XFCE or Mate to get back that old feel from Mate.

At least with KDE4 it was just unstable but it was still a familiar enough DE. I do miss the first time use wizard KDE used to have though where it asked what OS you were most accustomed to and adjusted shortcuts and file manager behaviors to those experiences.
> And again, assuming people are spending their entire income is completely ridiculous.

Indeed. This only applies to low income households. If you are a software engeneer, COL no longer matters that much, because you only spend maybe a third of your income locally. Thus the net income matters much more.

This is also why people usually move from low to high COL areas and not the other way around.
Gnome 3 isn't for people with low end and legacy hardware, or for those with neurological conditions that inhibit recollection of words.

If you don't have a relatively new and powerful machine and cannot easily recall the names of the Gnome software suite, well, it's not going to work well for you.

Isn’t the whole point of a compiler to automatically build models from input? I get your point about need for a design guideline though.
This is the paper about Jump Hashing. A must read on this is Damian Gryski’s post comparing a bunch of consistent hashing algorithms, all with their own sets of trade offs related to speed, balancing, and memory usage.

I’ve done all of that. I guess it depends on the codebase, but transitioning to Python 3 wasn’t so difficult, I suppose it should only be easier now than it was in 2016/17.

Coming back to Python in 2019, it seems almost mandatory to be on Python 3.4+. I can not imagine someone still using Python 2.7. Except for this one place I worked that was stuck in the last century, God bless their little souls.

Autism is a developmental disorder, so any case severe enough to need large amounts of social support will generally get diagnosed before people start trying to rig the system (Munchausen by Proxy cases excepted, of course). You can get an adult diagnosis of autism spectrum, and they'll ask about your childhood, but it's not currently worthwhile to verify via interviewing your parents.

Also, social security disability benefits for autism are difficult to obtain without a childhood diagnosis. Basically the thinking is that if you weren't disabled enough for your parents to need help getting you through school, you're not disabled enough to be unable to work. This really sucks for the edge cases that fall through the gap, but does have anti-fraud advantages.
That happens in TeX as well, the width of “efficient” does not necessarily equal to the width of “ef” + “ficient” due to the presence of ligatures, and TeX deals with it by storing the width of the full ligature as well as the pre and post-line break widths (for all possible line breaks in the middle of paragraphs) and takes them into consideration when calculating line breaks. This can be generalized to any situation where line breaking changes the width of a chunk of the text.
On the flip side, I often hit it accidentally when hitting cmd-w, and I don't think I ever intentionally hit it. Choosing good defaults is hard.
As with everything, depends on the audience. If working on something web-related or has an obvious need for javascript, then yeah, node can be an assumed dependency (actually probably preferred because I'd imagine you get better integration with the rest of your project than with unittest/pytest). But if it's a pure-python library that has nothing to do with javascript/typescript I think it's too much to ask someone to be sure to install proper versions of node+npm+typescript+whatever-else so your `python setup.py test` runs correctly. The same would apply to a javascript project that had dependency on python3.6 for their type checker.

Many projects need node, but not all; I don't know any which require docker.

I want to be clear: with pyright, it's not bad! I think it's the right way to do the LSP plugin: no dependency on the current python version (am I using the python in the venv? or ~/.local/bin? or /usr/bin/?) and great integration with the editor.

If it's a large project that will benefit from "5x faster" typechecking than mypy, then yeah, it's probably worth the dependencies.

If you have a 5-file python package I found on pypi that I want to contribute to, but there's nonstandard hoops to jump through to get `python setup.py test` working properly, I would have preferred you made a different call in this regard.

I'm glad we have choices and it's not mono-culture.

This isn’t a bad suggestion. I make silly spelling mistakes all of the time. Especially if there are other things going on in the office.

When I have to work with large JavaScript codebases I always move for TypeScript for that very reason.

It won’t compile if I’ve done something like that and will happily shout the line at me that (paraphrased example):

545: someArray.srt((a: number, b: number) => a-b) - ‘srt’ does not exist on type Array

Etc, etc.

And good integration with an editor or IDE will produce these errors without needing to run the compile step which saves a lot of time and frustration.

Would this even be a benefit for someone without autism? It appears to just be an alternate interview process. Unless you are failing the standard interview for the specific reasons that the alternate process is designed to avoid, you would be better off with the less time consuming standard process.
Electron is just one way to package it. https://gitpod.io has nothing to do with electron for example.
If we assume that the private-mode is "secure", then I suspect there's probably not a huge difference in practice.
