Dry answer: In practice, you try to not mutate values you receive unless you know you own them. Usually it's clear from the type signature. If ints are sent over the channel, or structs each containing an int and string, you know you can do whatever you want with them. If it's ambiguous, the sender should document whether the receiver has ownership.

I think with 1 sender and 1 receiver the common solution in Rust is the same, to copy (or maybe move) the values sent... the type system provides some safety guarantees but I doubt it would be much different for performance. You wouldn't be able to send an immutable reference over a channel in Rust, since the compiler wouldn't know where the reference's lifetime ends. You could resort to refcounting, but you would probably only put in the effort if the data structure was large enough that copying was prohibitively expensive.
That's called the "Matlab Hangover"

I see this position somewhat often, almost unavoidably accompanied by a reference to Feynman. The position is, of course, pure nonsense if you take a few moments to think it through.

Not only has the world moved on drastically from when Feynman, a non-expert in the area, wrote that essay, but it is also ludicrous to claim that a part of existence is unamenable to scientific study. If it exists and has an effect, it can be studied. There is no reason to believe human behaviour and thought is beyond this.

Yes, I also paired my new bluetooth Thinkpad keyboard with my phone on the day it arrived, just to see how it worked. I laughed pushing the newly appearing mouse cursor across the screen with the trackpoint (pointy stick) on the keyboard.

It was comical to be using an input device so much larger than the phone, but also enlightening. Suddenly, the Slack app felt just like a shrunken version of the desktop app and I could type fluently. I can now appreciate the two separate compromises of the phone as completely independent issues: the small screen that makes browsing and reading less efficient than on a 27 inch monitor, and the touch-based UX making me feel like a frustrated aphasic.
I get a mild disgust/nausea/skin-crawl reaction. I lean towards evolutionary theory: your lizard brain is telling you "don't touch/eat this parasite-infested item". The worst trigger for me was an image was a (photoshopped) picture of skin with holes, and some had maggots in them.
Hey everyone -- we’re Steve & Kyle, founders at Out Of Office. This might seem obvious, but we believe different work requires different space. And lots of companies waste a ton of money on their offices (especially in San Francisco!). So we scouted hundreds of free & private workspaces around town, and you can browse all 500+ locations in our app.

It all starts with the type of work you have to do. Then, based on your location (or where you’re heading), we show you the best coffee shops, hotels, coworking spaces, museums, and public parklets. Verified WiFi when you need it, fresh air & people watching when you don’t :)

Most of the locations are free, but we just launched a marketplace with premium bookable spots starting at $2.50/hour for coworking day passes. Plus fancy conference rooms if you’re hosting a client or a team offsite.

Reach out if you have questions, and thanks for taking a look!
Slavery was a Constitutional policy. Article 1, Section 9 contains:

"The Migration or Importation of such Persons as any of the States now existing shall think proper to admit, shall not be prohibited by the Congress prior to the Year one thousand eight hundred and eight, but a Tax or duty may be imposed on such Importation, not exceeding ten dollars for each Person."

It had nothing to do with the Democratic party or the Republican party.

If your linking of slavery with the Democratic party is somehow connected to Lincoln being a Republican, so of course the Republicans freed the slaves, then I'd suggest reading about the presidencies of FDR, LBJ, a bit regarding Nicon's "Southern Strategy", and Clinton. The geographic south of the U.S. was conservative Democratic prior to them, and shifted to conservative Republican. The parties changed. The people in place (for the most part) didn't.
They are definitely not efficient for large computing needs. You can a much better dollar per mip ratio in a faster system.

That does not match how I think of the semantic web at all. For example:

> make your own custom tags that describe the intent of the document

If you make up your own tags for everything then to a visitor (human, bot, indexer or otherwise) it describes nothing, since those tags only have that meaning on your site (and worse, they have different meanings on other sites). Semantic web or RDF or Linked Data or whatever you want to call it is not about describing your document within the context of your document, it's about making sure your document is understood in relation to all the documents that link to it and all the documents that it links to.

So you're not concerned about it if it doesn't target you personally. Fair enough, not everyone has empathy for their fellow human beings.

As far as I know, authors can't attempt to incite real violence in books, either. But imminence is a relevant factor you're ignoring. A book may take weeks, months or years to publish, whereas a death threat on the internet can be acted upon almost immediately.

For those interested in the source, the admin logs show that the Reddit Corporate Admins only needed to remove on average one comment per few days going back 30 days. Then they removed 9 comments on one day on a post about Oregon - a somewhat anomalous casus belli. Apparently that was enough to quarantine a subreddit of 750k subscribers.

There is a difference between bad science and "not being a science" ( aka pseudoscience ).

The difference is that in one you can formulate replicable science. In the other, by its nature, you can't. Because on deals with "natural law" and the other with society.

There is no "replicable scientific test" to determine whether capitalism or socialism is the best economic system. There is no "replicable scientific test" to determine whether to have the death penalty or not. So on and so forth. Much of it is pretty much a "religious" endeavor. Pretty much those with power decide and social "science" is used to justify whereas in the past religion was the justification.
Developers don't always come up with dark patterns or fraud, but they implement them. It's possible to say no on ethical grounds, isn't it?

Even for anyone else who is developing a serious enough business, owning your own traffic metric data is important to build this in-house. Today's open-source tech and public clouds make this really easy - it's 2-4 people full-time job to run a very large scale traffic analysis system that can rival whatever functionality you can get from GA (without being fully self-serve and multi-tenant, which is a ton of work you can avoid).

Google's paper on Percolator from 2010 says there are more than 1T web pages. 9 years later there is surely way more than that.

https://ai.google/research/pubs/pub36726

The real issue would be crawling and indexing all those pages. How long would it take for an average user's computer with a 10Mb internet connection to crawl the entire web? It's not as easy a problem as you make it seem.

One of the things the Go community has encountered is chaining together too many "if err != nil { return err }" basically returns you to the exceptions problem of having no context around the error anymore, except now you don't even have a stack trace to help you out. (This is what I meant by the bare "if err != nil { return err }" being "exception-y", only, if you like, unambiguously worse if the code base is full of that literal block.)

"Handling" an error includes further annotating it with information about why the code in question couldn't fix it, and this is probably the most common case. (I hedge only because we humans are actually really bad at judging such things, with our availability heuristic bias and other biases. I'm fairly confident this would indeed be the #1 case, but I've been wrong about this sort of thing in the past when I actually went to check.) We don't mean "fix" the error, just... "handle". Ideally you end up with a composite error object (as I said, in conjunction with a few other library-level things that are likely to get pulled up to official support and culture) that contains much more information about the error, and that if you do end up flinging it up to higher level code, you're leaving it with more options for understanding the resulting problems and dealing with them.
We're at the point that it might make sense to map languages to a digital format rather than map an extensible digital format to myriad different languages. I mean, it will never happen, but if we had a much simpler format than Unicode that just supported a number of characters, but no combining characters, no accents (and perhaps even no case), and let each language decide how they wanted to represent themselves within that medium (are accents important enough to require a separate character, or is leaving it off or just using two characters next to each other sufficient?).

That isn't to say we wouldn't want accurate representations of languages (as Unicode makes an attempt to do), but there's a difference between trying to represent a language, and trying to represent the data within a language. In some cases, the former is important, in others, the latter vastly outweighs the former, and making that easily accessible, categorized, compared, etc has value.

I think it's only even conceivable at this point because of how much communication is done online, and in abridged form. We've already adopted pidgin languages for ad-hoc communication (as in IMs, SMS, and tweets), so I don't think people would find this that hard to grapple with at this point.

This is to broad a question to answer. There are really to many different uses of the Internet to try and fashion a solution that works in all areas. Not to mention the fact that it's to academic to begin with. How do you get such a large group of people to change a behavior that works for them already? And very generally most people are not bothered by the privacy aspect as much as tech people (always whining about things) are or even the media. People very generally like they can get things at no cost and don't (en masse) care anywhere near as much about being tracked as you have been led to believe. And that's when tracking is not even benefiting them which it is often. This is not 'how can we eliminate robo calls'. It's not even 'how can we eliminate spam'.

> Offset tax-burden incurred by their incarceration.

I don't agree that this is a valid justification. I pay taxes that go to funding the department of education despite never "participating" in any direct department of education activity. We don't make parents "offset" that cost when they send kids to public school (no, we make the teachers do that by forcing them to use their own money to buy chalk), why should we make a prisoner suddenly be more responsible for a tax burden carried by all of society? This is creating a "separate tax class," in my mind, which defeats the purpose entirely. We all pay in, we all benefit, we all use what we can/need/want of the system (minus the glaring deficiencies).

> They're prisoners. Society has already devalued them.

We agree. I think that it's bad to devalue them.

RISC-V wants to go beyond AVX, on several dimensions (parameterized hardware, generic code base, low-end to high-end hardware, symmetry with scalar RISC-V instructions).

I think it's going to be fine.

It doesn't encourage skipping error handling, it just allows skipping annotation where it doesn't add much. Sometimes in a chain of several calls, a function in the middle can't really add much context, and is better just to bubble the error up one level without annotation - that is what try is for.

Unfortunately there's not very much actual evidence yet that e-cigarettes help people quit smoking, and according to the actual ordinance under discussion, there's some evidence that it can actually increase smoking.

I’d argue the biases of major news institutions are generally more scrutable and predictable than average private individuals on Twitter.

You can (should) do this at a lower level by having the physical layer electrically detect that both ends of a cable are plugged in (bonus points for detecting the type of thing on the other end). Can be done as simply as testing for varying resistance levels between pairs of pins. USB does this for detecting OTG master/slave relationships for example. I think DVI also does this in some way. I remember having to do something to the plugs to get Linux to enable the GPUs in my mining days.
