Well, the answer depends on what kind of system it is.

If its federated, by being split into such small pieces that the regulations don't really affect any particular one of them, since they're either unaffected or can remove content easily while washing their hands of what other people/communities say.

If it's decentralised, by being literally impossible to shut down, block or go after users for using. That's always been the end goal for many of these systems.
It says O(1) for lookup. Average case is the one that matters here.

Worst case is for people who've intentionally written bad hash functions. (https://xkcd.com/221/) Python has put significant effort into good default hashes[1] so you won't be vulnerable to attackers feeding in maliciously colliding hashes, nor will you have performance degradation from biased bits in the hashes if you've written an insufficiently uniform hash function.[2]

[1] https://python-security.readthedocs.io/vuln/cve-2012-1150_ha...

[2] For instance, pointers are usually aligned to cache line boundaries, and are biased toward page boundaries, and in C++, the hash function of an integer/pointer is the identity function. So in C++, a std::unordered_set of pointers will have ridiculously high collision rates. If you have 1024 pointers in a set of size 2048, you will only have only 32 buckets that have values in them, and each of those buckets will have roughly 32 elements, and the zero bucket will even more. Python doesn't let you shoot yourself in the foot, and whitens your hashes before going to the dictionary. C++ "solves" this problem by providing an API which allows you to override the hash function.

It's, as I said, that programs should use line terminators, but we cannot mandate that all programs do use line terminators, so it's still the responsibility of the shell to deal with this. Specifically, it's a reaction to

> First of all, that's a hack zsh really shouldn't have to do.

In an ideal world, zsh wouldn't need a hack, but it would still need to send a signal to the terminal emulator to say "please ensure the cursor is at the beginning of a line; if it's not, mark this somehow so the user understands". Slightly less ideally, a simple way to say "am I at the beginning of a line?" (this is less ideal only in that now the terminal can't be smart about copying program output). But either way, it's still the responsibility of the shell to ensure its prompt ends up starting at column 0 without overwriting the previous program's output. Because no matter what conventions you establish, there will be programs that exit without printing a line terminator (even the best-behaved of programs can still do this if they use unbuffered output and you send a signal to kill the process in the middle of a line).

How do you determine the value of any candidate you interview? You have a job req. Do they match that req? Yes, good, you make them an offer. What level of pay do you negotiate? What is market. If they're otherwise happy going toward the bottom of market is feasible, esp. if it's a large bump.

If this person goes out the door, you're going to be paying their replacement roughly the same as what they'll negotiate elsewhere... and on top of that, you have to deal with the cost of turnover. You basically just lost a ton of $$ by letting them walk. This is not hard. Just run the thought experiment of what it would cost to find a suitable replacement.
> Since apparently I'm Wrong(TM) does anyone want to tell me why?

I think because some devices are designed such that incidental contact with neutral (before the load) is possible under normal circumstances, which means (if the internal circuit in the device is not complete) you could get shocked if hot and neutral are swapped.

An example of such a device is a plug-in light fixture with a screw-in bulb. You might easily touch the edge or side of the socket while there is no bulb in there. You are much less likely to touch the contact deep within the socket. So the fixture is wired to make the socket neutral and the contact hot.

How can a socialist (https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/socialism) system have a market?

The point I was making is that in my experience, many socialists (as defined above, type of socialists) do not believe or understand how behaviour emerges from markets and how this is efficient where competition is possible: It's all government this, government that.

Ex-Soviet states didn't choose a "political association" as you say, they were invaded and brutally occupied in an attempt to erase their existence.

Nazis get the proper context in 20th century history, the Soviet union sadly doesn't. If you were here defending Hitler's invasion of Poland i'd image the response would be different.

It shouldn't be.
Not just YouTube algorithms either. Almost all social media site algorithms and search engine ones (like say, Google's) seem to put a heavy emphasis on regular content rather than quality content.

And it's the main cause behind both journalism going through a massive decline in quality and so much low effort content showing up everywhere online.
There's also the odd trend I've noticed of trying to attribute the gender imbalance and the lack of women in technical and scientific fields to genetic factors, implying (sometimes stating outright) that women are simply incapable of comprehending logic, complex mathematics, keeping attention to detail, etc.

Some (or many, judging by the threads here) people seem to assume that a woman in a position of any prestige in such a field must be there due to some feminist agenda giving seats to unqualified women in the name of gender equality, or the leftist press giving women undeserved credit.

It's particularly odd because I suspect many of the proponents of these views are too young to remember the 1960s or 1950s, yet their views on women seem regressive even by that standard, and far more vicious.

> I really don't see any way to justify working 996 without some sort of absurdly high pay,

Many people don't just work for the immediate monetary benefit. Some like the company or see some value in working there or in that industry specifically, some want to prove themselves in a competitive environment to raise in ranks and see better chances even if the starting position is bad etc. ... Some might even like the rough working conditions because they appeal to their work ethic. Slavery would mean they have no choice but they do and they choose 996.

He hasn't been charged with publishing classified information. Journalists do that all the time and aren't charged. What he's charged with in the US (so far) is actively taking part in the extraction of classified information. Specifically, he didn't just accept and release what Manning supplied; he encouraged and quite possibly materially aided in the act. He'll get a trial for that, and can state his case.

I'm not saying the US doesn't have it in for him. I'm not even saying that I trust the US to present a fair case. I'm saying that what he's charged with here matters, and is far different than the persecution of a neutral party that he and others are trying to paint it as.

It's more evidence that he may never have been the white knight that he claimed to be and has possibly always had an agenda.

The Federal Reserve manages inflation through credit. Inflation is used to reduce the value of fiat. Reducing the value of fiat requires you be able to invest to overcome inflation, or work more to recoup what's been artificially devalued.

Ergo, the Federal Reserve is economically coercing people to work who might otherwise not need to, or who might prefer to work less. "Maximizing employment". This would be fine with sane labor protections (a reasonable living minimum wage, minimum PTO/vacation/sick days, maternity/paternity leave, etc), but is disastrous without them. This is what happens when you maximize for employment and GDP versus quality of life.
"The babies don't sleep in it during the night."

Yeah I get a feeling people were using these to kind of get out of soothing the baby at night. People were putting their baby in it and like walking away or going back to bed.

The Snoo I think is what most people want, but it's pretty expensive. But you can put the baby down, restrain them properly and then walk away or go to bed.
Gah, I see the confusion, in one sentence I was talking about single element access, and in the next about full copy, and I was just assuming the jump was clear to the reader but clearly it wasn't.

So just to be fully explicit:

Single element access in a hash table is only ~O(1) when it's amortized over many accesses of a table that assumes few collisions (due to size and a good hash function). But the real worst-case performance, in case of incessent collisions, is going to be the performance of whatever data structure hides behind each bucket: O(n) if it's a naive list, O(log_x n) if it's a simple tree, etc.

So copying a full list into a hash table is not O(n), it's O(n^2) if the buckets are backed by naive lists, O(n log_x n) if the buckets are backed by simple trees, or another superlinear bound for another backing data structure.

How about it?

And personally I would still prefer to de-dupe an array by dumping into a hashtable and back, but the OP is right, you have to be careful about implementation details of both the hashtable and the hashing function. The simple hashtable-and-back can produce much worse perf than sort-and-dedupe if stars don't align.
Except that PHP does have a REPL, and using PHP_EOL is hardly a big deal. PHP induces an undeserved gag-reflex for most Ruby / Python / JS devs because they read some "why php sucks" post on someone's blog ten years ago, but really the language is quite modern now (not to mention faster).

This is an interesting perspective I had never considered. Are there similar implications for other levers of adjusting low-wage bargaining power like when a neighboring city raises its minimum wage?
Greenspam was associated with Rand at least through 1977 when he was chairman of Ford's Council of Economic Advisors, a position that Rand explicitly approved. She died in 1982 and Greenspam was appointed to the Fed in 1987 so she never had a chance to comment on that position.

However, based on Rand's writings on ethics and capitalism it would be immoral to accept the Fed chairmanship unless you had an explicit charter to shut it down which was obviously not the case for Greenspam. Rand would have denounced Greenspam in no uncertain terms but she was dead.

Accepting the Fed position was an explicit repudiation of Rand's philosophy and views on capitalism regardless of Greenspam's prior association with Rand. It was also an implicit repudiation of the articles (especially the article on gold) that he wrote in Rand's anthology "Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal" in which Greenspam authored three articles; "Antitrust", "Gold and Economic Freedom", and "The Assault on Integrity". He is no more a "randian" than my mom, though he is dotty and old.

Greenspam would have been wise to read and heed an article written also in Rand's book on capitalism; "The Anatomy of Compromise" in which she explains the principle of Sanction. Rand wrote;

> In any collaboration between two men (or two groups) who hold different basic principles, it is the more evil or irrational one who wins.

Greenspan chose to collaborate with dishonest bankers, currency cranks (in the Fed) and bureaucrats (in the bank regulators) who wanted make it possible to "somehow" inflate the currency, give loans to the unqualified and to back quasi-private debt (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac) with govt guarantees all without consequences. He thus set the stage for the 2008 mortgage banking crisis.
More that it requires active and time dependent history to know the state of the device, making it not fundamental in the sense that the resistance doesn't depend on history.

It's a fair point I'd say, and they're clear that this isn't something that diminishes utility of any practical device. Just that it isn't fundamental. This seems clear if you define fundamental things as not requiring history or energy to be defined. If you don't define it that way I'm sure you can come to a different conclusion.
The Chinese are the americans of the american continent, or the dutch of europe: they're everywhere and they have the money.

And Western food is not always known for its quality: the west gave the world burgers, fries or pizzas.

In the end, I'm sure Asia is doing so well because the West thinks poorly of them and leaves them alone.

It's a shame we have to assume the worst. What would be better is for Microsoft to be more transparent about the telemetry and to enable more granular control. That said, I wouldn't bother checking as I don't really care. I rub shoulders with infosec issues daily, as most IT folk do these days. When I think about the perceived risk of telemetry from VSCode, now and in the future it's a negligible risk that I accept.

You're right. A requirement that non-competes come with a "garden leave" type arrangement would straighten this right out.
This position only really holds up if you don't know either language well.

For example, I guess you didn't know there are PHP and Perl REPLs? And robust OO code is not only possible in Perl, but there's tens of thousands of very reusable Perl modules that have stood up over time much better than Python or Node modules have.

People get around that by splitting pay into salary and bonus. Then they just pay salary during the non-compete.

Other fun things are enforcing the noncompete at the employer's discretion. You never know if you're out for a month or a year and they can change their mind mid way through.
Then the company clearly isn't paying him his full value. If the client base is loyal to him rather than the company then the company is just stealing value from him.

> It says O(1) for lookup. Average case is the one that matters here.

No, it's actually not. Everyone else and the article were using the worst case asymptotic, so you'reswitching to this vernacular and suggesting, "Oh we mean the asymptotic of the average."

Redefining the entire conversation to your notational convenience is not a very fair call, and doesn't speak well of your intentions.

And what's more, it's typical to use big-theta notation to discuss average performance anyways. So even if we WERE using that, we'd be using different notation to be more consistent with the literature and less confusing.

> Worst case is for people who've intentionally written bad hash functions.

No. It's for people who do not know what kind of input they're going to receive or what kind of hardware they're going to execute on.
Reducing biodiversity is a bad thing. Even if you concentrate on things that strictly benefit human beings, there can be unknown benefits ages from now. One example would be finding that the native Florida snake creates some sort of chemical (maybe in its venom or from one of its glands of organs) that can be used to treat some kind of human illness.
Apple's value isn't just dividends. They have literally hundreds of billions in cash, about 25% of their market cap. They have vast other assets, both material and otherwise (the brand alone is worth real money). Their revenue is over $300B per year, and net profit is nearly $100B. And they post numbers like this year after year. Apple's value is real and obvious, and given the liquidity and sustained numbers, it's also correct. There's no bubble component at all.

It's unclear to me what the definition of "solicited" is.
Typically, you can tell the order between two strings early, after you read just the starting few characters. So for comparison you would usually read maybe 10 bytes per file on average, or 3 x 1000 x 10 bytes = 30KB in total. Or maybe 30MB if the strings have long common prefixes.

Of course, in a highly specialized distribution, all the strings could be identical except for the last few characters, and then sorting would be horrible.

Ultimately you have to have some idea about the distribution of your data to say anything about average complexity.
It's more about the degree than practical reasons in many cases.
