I think it is the opposite. Even without TypeScript Babel has grown to be overly complex.

If you’re talking about front end libraries like React you’re better off ditching Babel altogether and going with something like Parcel. It just works.

The TS developer experience ya sim proved working with JS enormously for me when I have to do it, and nudged me toward simpler, smarter development environment setups.

I can’t speak for you or anyone else. Just adding my two cents.
We apparently had vastly different experiences within the same denomination. Prayers were almost always for healing. Repentence almost never came into it as the subject of the prayers was usually "saved". Nor were the prayers for being reunited in heaven because that was assumed to be a given. Feeding into all of this were the half-baked stories from the pulpit of healing. Of some miraculous last minute renewal of health. Always the result of praying, fasting, etc.

Once the death happened, they were accepting of it. But they fought like hell until that moment.

This was my experience. There is (or used to be) some variance between SBC churches, so I don't doubt your experience was different.
The information I'm aware of so far is that the Lion Air flight crew did repeatedly attempt to adjust the trim, but it's not known if they used the cutout switches. A previous flight with the same aircraft did experience runaway trim,and the cutouts were used before the problem became unrecoverable.

I find the design of this system shockingly ill-considered. At the very least, it should require input from both sensors and not activate if the sensors disagree. It seems to me a better system would be to automatically add some nose-down trim if the pilot applies full forward pressure on the stick since the primary underlying concern is insufficient elevator authority in certain impending stall conditions for that standard pilot response to be effective.

I've met or worked with programmers with 3 years of experience who demonstrated competence, but never proficiency.

Some programmers have a strong natural intuition, and a competent programmer with a strong natural intuition may appear proficient. It's a tricky distinction, but important to recognize (especially for the programmers themselves and anyone mentoring them).

However, I think most people with 3 years of professional experience programming are advanced beginners reaching competence in a few specific areas.

The whole thing certainly is not equivalent, but I’m picking out this particular paragraph because it describes something that many of us do as if it were nefarious.

Having that taxonomy is definitely a great starting point for the field, but just to build a model to extract patient data from the text of a medical record you'd need to:

* Procure patient medical files. This rabbit hole includes things like HIPPA compliance and sufficiently anonymizing the files. Also, hospitals consider 3 years of information on 100 patients to be a lot of data.

* Have trained medical professionals annotate the files. Good luck convincing doctors to do this. Also good luck in determining what to do if the handful of doctors you're granted a few hours with a week can't agree on annotations.

* Actually produce a model that is reasonably good at pulling information out of patient charts,

Even after all the above, you still only have a solution that is giving you structured data, which is something that other EMRs can provide w/o the problems of accuracy & completeness of NLP process. There is still the process of diagnosis and treatment and also the fact that this is all a loop ('active learning').

> Breakfast cereals are about one of the worst things you can actually eat for breakfast. At best it's just a bowl of wholegrain carbs (e.g. oatmeal, muesli)

What's the problem with that? They are not supposed to be your sole source of macro-nutrients. If you get your protein and fats in other meals during the day it's perfectly fine.

You can't end up malnourished from eating cereals, you can only end up malnourished from not eating anything else. And no one is eating only cereals. Anyway, since you yourself said they are fortified with vitamins and minerals, it sounds like they are just fine after all.

Should Therapy Be This Hard?
My Dad had a cardiac arrest at 70. And consequently deprived of oxygen for 10+ minutes. My Mom did all she could with chest pumps waiting for paramedics. This kept him alive so he made it to hospital. When I saw my Dad, a few hours later, his eyes were glazed over, pupils dilated, unable to make sort of recognizable sound, just soft nightmarish screams, and stretching out his arms like he wanted to get away.

I thought surely his brain is gone, and that he will be in some sort of vegetative state for the rest of his life, if he lives at all. I was already convinced that was it for him. If at that point doctor asked me weather to "pull the plug", I probably would have agreed.

I couldn't be more wrong. Not only did he live. No brain damage at all. 4 years later he's still around. Today he went on a bike ride.

I'm not sure what the odds were for him. The Nurse did tell us that with every hour he is alive his chances kept improving. Brain damage was still a very large risk. But they lowered his temperature, with an ice blanker, to help with this.

Just keep in mind sometimes people can have remarkable recoveries too, especially with modern technology.

CPR circulates blood to the oxygen and brain, keeping it going long enough for the heart to (maybe) be restarted.

For the first few minutes after someone's heart stops beating, it probably hasn't actually stopped, it is just beating in a chaotic way that isn't actually moving any blood (this is known as "ventricular fibrillation, hence the "defibrillator"). The electrical discharge of the defibrillator is like someone standing up in a loud room and blowing an air horn. It shuts everyone up for a second, and hopefully the heart's normal "pacemaker" can take back over.

There are some medications that can be given to "strengthen" that pacemaker, and to make the rest of the heart a bit less "twitchy" (and therefore less likely to go back into a lethal arrhythmia).

There is a related arrhythmia known as ventricular tachycardia where the heart is beating too quickly to move any blood (and the beating is being triggered by random cells in the heart, not be the heart's intrinsic pacemaker).

If someone is unresponsive and doesn't appear to be breathing, high quality CPR and early defibrillation are what will help them. If you have an AED, put it on them and follow the prompts it gives. And AED will not do anything that would make the patient's condition worse (to hurt someone with a defibrillator, you need to be using a manually controlled one).

Locomotives do that because they need to power many wheels, and because they need huge torque at zero speed to get started. Trying to do that with a very large clutch is painful. (There are locomotive-sized clutches for some smaller locomotives, and British Rail was once into that approach, but it's obsolete.)
Modern locomotives run the motors as synchronous AC servomotors, locking all the wheels together in software.

There seems to be constant repetition of the idea that simple == outdated and complex == modern.

Many of those classic games may not have depth in complex mechanics or breadth of story narratives, but that does not mean they do not contain deep or significant meaning or underlying narrative constructs. At a minimum it does not mean that they lack strong and compelling game design.

I tend to view those (sorry, generalising a little) that dismiss 'classic' games by declaring them 'out of date' as projecting how clever they are by defining complexity == intelligent, regardless of the quality of design, depth of meaning or coherence in narrative.

> They are confusing (as in, the answer to question: how many bits are there in your int, long, short depends on both arch and compiler) and since 70s we discovered it the hard way that they're non-extensible (multiple times, actually!).

Did we though? The original design, as it was in ALGOL 68, was very much extensible - it specifically said that SHORT and LONG are 1) prefixes, not types, and 2) any amount of them is valid, but the implementation only has to provide SHORT INT, INT and LONG INT, and then the rest are there for shorter and longer implementation-defined types.

What broke it in C mainly that instead of the obvious sequence of short-int-long being 16/32/64 from the get go, they have reused int to mean "most common type". So the original 16-bit architectures had short and int being basically the same, making short redundant. Then on 32-bit, int was changed, but again in a broken way where it was now mapped to long, making that redundant (but still heavily used!). Which set up the 64-bit disaster, where Windows wouldn't make long 64-bit because too much code was out there assuming that it was 32-bit.

If we kept short/int/long separate all along, and didn't try to redefine them afterwards, we wouldn't even need long long today.

This is a great run-down of the realizations that a lot of the engineering team came to and what I was trying to touch on in my reply above. There is just so much information & context within a doctor's head and so much that is going on during an examination that looks simple to our eyes. Even in the idealized case of having accurate, structured patient data and focusing only on a simple disease, it's a challenge to diagnose and prescribe a correct treatment. Even a system that can accept the text of a patient's medical record and successfully pull out relevant details would be challenge.
If Apple took that app down, they'd disappear in the blink of an eye. Doesn't make it right to keep it up but they have no power whatsoever.

This was no where close to how the Xi app is forced on the students. This was a single event where the PM talked about exams and stress which is an issue many students ans parents face, this was not a political event. Whereas ths Xi app is forced on ths students continously, shaming them if they object. And the app is filled with Xi and communist propaganda.

> None of the points presented in that blog have been invented by Christians as most of the Christian philosphy was copied from Greek philosophy and then adapted to scriptures.

The point of the essay is explaining how those ideas were a result of specific Christian theological commitments in contrast to pre-Christian pagan notions: things like linear time, non-animism, the rational mind coming from the Imago Dei, belief that the world is not an illusion, etc.

The article cites Alfred North Whitehead, who said:

"I do not think that I have even yet brought out the greatest contribution of medievalism to the formation of the scientific movement. I mean the inexpungable belief that every detailed occurrence can be correlated with its antecedents in a perfectly definite manner, exemplifying general principles. Without this belief the incredible labours of scientists would be without hope. It is this instinctive conviction, vividly poised before the imagination, which is the motive power of research: -- that there is a secret, a secret which can be unveiled."

> And let’s be honest - a blog is not a source. Give me a book that is you have read and it gave you the historical knowledge about where Christian philosophical basis came from.

That's some rather bizarre special pleading. The post is well-argued and well-sourced. There's nothing inherently more authoritative about printing something in a book, and here I can actually provide you with my source, for free, over the internet.
The problem of course is when position is actually important in a problem, you need to integrate velocities instead of rapidity. The reason velocity addition trips people up is because adding velocities inherently means "seeing velocity as measured by another frame," which then requires Lorentz transform. For many problems, you confine yourself to a single inertial frame, you can still do physics comfortably and you never have to worry about adding velocities.

For a low-level language like this, I think you have to pretty much assume from the get go that anything that has runtime overhead needs an escape hatch, because somebody somewhere might need it. For example, the ability to explicitly request variables or allocated memory to not be zero-initialized can come in handy.

I agree that it's better to default to well-defined, though. That's one thing that I found somewhat questionable about Zig arithmetic operators - why is the shortest and the most obvious one UB on overflow? Sure, it's like C, but in this case that's exactly the problem. IMO, doing things in the most obvious way should always emphasize correctness over speed.
