Did you know about the Jackson State massacre or the Orangeburg massacre, in both of which the police killed college and high-school students? Or the 1985 police bombing of a residential neighborhood in Philadelphia that killed six adults and five children and destroyed 65 houses?

The US doesn't need to suppress people from talking. There's enough social control that people don't talk in the first place. The information is all out there and technically public, which against the US populace is more effective in making sure people don't think of the police as they should.

what hobby might i like to pick up that i can get my kids interested in

i'd actually like to rephrase that a bit. kids are naturally interested in everything their parents do. so the question is not whether i can get the kids interested, but rather, whether is is something that is interesting for me, yet suitable for kids.
I tend to prefer Qt as an end user, are there similar tutorials for Qt+Rust?

The whole point of the "docudrama" was pointing this out, but failing to point out the next level of this error.

And most of you are regurgitating the same shit over and over again, in blissfull ignorance.
Replacing "I don't know" with "this is undefined in the spec" or "this is implementation specific" would probably increase the pass rates.

And one can use overlapping synergies. Like hiking/running to let your brain creates solutions on the go :D
You presume that by believing in a God you're not living life in the best way you can, but is there really an objective (non-religious) "best way" to live life? I would assume that for the average religious person, the way they live their life feels just about right (barring any intrinsic human shortcomings).
Definitely still viable.

It depicts in a game to help autistic children better communicate, a simple order-independent language representation, which is isomorphic to graphs.

If you do the math, you see that some triplets query like (queen, subclass, ?) is just a point-wise multiplication with the knowledge database sparse tensor in this sparse boolean tensor representation (the ? is a column of 1). Then it's just chaining requests.

A graph of triplet is isomorphic to a boolean tensor of dimension (nbSubjects, nbRelations, nbObjects).
Ah, cool. However, you’re example seems a bit Eurocentric. Not to mention that the parent, as well as the rest of the thread, was talking about how this compares to the USA. So I have no clue how bringing Turkey into the discussion would make much sense.
I stand corrected, you have proven that it is impossible for some people to grasp even basic concepts when determined to do so. I yield that my front line support for end users of over 13 years provides me no insights into the average, or even below average user and that your experience setting up a website at 17 trumps everything. There's just no possible way with good support some people could set up their own website, blog, or otherwise despite the fact that so many actually do it every single day.

Actually reactivity in GUI (maybe declarative GUI programming is a more accurate form?) is also "the old way" in the GUI development. I mean it is already done a decade ago, even before react. Try QML. The view is automatically updated when a signal is triggered or its state changes.

You will notice that it is surprisingly simpler than React.

React got so popular because React implemented it very nicely in the web browsers, not because it brought new concepts.

JavaFX actually has a lot of reactive elements in its design. Basically every attribute of any GUI element are an “observable” type which allow you to register handlers for doing stuff when the internal value changes.
But a code based on several standards, not only on C standard. For example we know, that basic source character sets should contain space (C11 5.2.1), we know that character constants has type "int" and that character constants represent value equal to the code of a symbol (C11 5.4.4). We know used source character set and we know code of the space character. We can configure specific source character set on the POSIX compatible systems. We know that return statement in the main function equivalent to the call to exit function (C11 5.1.2.2.3), we know that only 8 least significant bits will be used from returned value (POSIX.1-2001 definition of "exit"), we know that INT_MAX should be at least 32767 (C11 5.2.4.2.1) so we sure that the result that we got from "return" statement in the "main" function is positive integer from 0 to 512. Finally if we configure source character set to be sure that ' ' has code 32 we know for sure that we got value 416 in the specified example. So we know for sure answer on question 3 based on the C11, POSIX.1-2017, and ISO 646 standards.
I recently did a small setup on my Synology consisting of a simple script that:

- Encrypts using GnuPG

- Uploads encrypted files to S3 (Glacier).

Simple and cheap cloud backup for me + nothing had to be installed on my NAS except for docker to run GnuPG and AWS CLI in containers.

Yet, citizens of China have enjoyed a steady increase in the quality of life across the board, while the opposite has been happening in US. Meanwhile, US is an oligarchy and not a democracy. A long term study from Princeton shows that the main predictor of any law being passed is whether it's favorable to the rich. The public opinion does not matter:

>What do our findings say about democracy in America? They certainly constitute troubling news for advocates of “populistic” democracy, who want governments to respond primarily or exclusively to the policy preferences of their citizens. In the United States, our findings indicate, the majority does not rule—at least not in the causal sense of actually determining policy outcomes. When a majority of citizens disagrees with economic elites or with organized interests, they generally lose. Moreover, because of the strong status quo bias built into the U.S. political system, even when fairly large majorities of Americans favor policy change, they generally do not get it.

In my experience, there are a lot more than two sliders but the general idea seems right. By choosing the right program, television can help fulfill all sorts of emotional needs: social, excitement, creativity, escapism, curiosity, etc.

The problem is that it’s effective for such a large range of needs, it promotes the illusion that, if you only found the right thing to watch, it can fix anything. So you end up channel surfing, wondering why you can’t find anything you’re interested in, when what you really need is a stroll outside.

> Common Lisp still has some activity, mainly coming from SBCL, but is a bit stagnant. It has a fantastic literature and many mature implementations.

There are a number of improvements I’d like to see to the core language, but in general I think Common Lisp is more ‘complete’ than it is ‘stagnant.’ I.e., it enables one to write software which is performant, dynamic, able to handle errors as they occur &c.

I recommend it over Scheme in large part because it is so complete, over Racket because it has multiple implementations and over Clojure because I like that it’s multi-paradigm. But tastes differ, and that’s okay.

I like that Common Lisp isn’t afflicted with flavour-of-the-month syndrome. There are libraries for Lisp which have been around, essentially untouched, for years and which still work correctly. Done right, the first time — what a concept!
This reminds me of an incredible dialogue from a remarkable Seinfeld episode (S02E02):

> GEORGE: They always make me take stock of my life and how I’ve pretty much wasted all of it, and how I plan to continue wasting it.

> JERRY: I know, and then you say to yourself, “From this moment on, I’m not going to waste any more of it.” But then you go, “How? What can I do that’s not wasting it?”
> Is it "disrespectful" to say that one of the reasons there are fewer women in engineering is because engineering simply doesn't interest women?

No, some women finding engineering fields not to be a fitting career choice, in and of itself, is not controversial. But such arguments never exist in a vacuum, or without context. They typically lean into the premise that women are uninterested in engineering due to "innate differences between gender," claiming that women can't grasp mathematics or logical thought as well as men, or else implying that the women who are in these fields are only there due to gender politics. The conclusion we're meant to reach being that not only is the gender imbalance in engineering fields justified, it should be even greater than it is.

The "inconvenient truths" people claim PC culture won't let them express are usually pseudo-scientific or naturalistic arguments that attempt to defend and justify existing forms of prejudice, and that's what becomes disrespectful. There are no such "truths" that don't diminish, harm or dehumanize some group.

The best way to live your life is highly subjective and personal. By allowing people to instruct you on how to live your life based not on knowledge but on centuries old guesses almost inevitably prevents you from having best possible life regardless of what it might mean for you.

Relying on old guesses instead of knowledge gives you objectively worse results in any kind of activity. It's not a stretch to assume it also has the same effect on your life as a whole.

There's also the point that to play a cynical game with religious belief in order to maximise your outcome, would probably annoy most so-far posited gods a lot more than an honest skeptic.

edit - there would be much variation in approach however. The Greek gods would tend towards maximising poetic irony and unusual animal husbandry practices, whereas Jehova would probably just smite Pascal with boils.
So foreign spying should be encouraged if you are doing domestic spying? I don’t see how that computes as far as domestic policy goes.

GTK is a C toolkit and Qt is C++, it is easier for other languages to use GTK if those languages have a way to interact with C library. There are a lot of bindings to GTK and very few to Qt.
This is a ridiculous suggestion. There is never a huge amount of posts that criticize the US gov, so it doesn't get enough viewing time even though there are a huge amount of horrendous actions the US are doing and elsewhere (UK etc).

Banning comments about whataboutism? LMAO. Censorship because people comment about how bad the US are? And youre bothered about Chinese ruling?
I understand your claim. But I've gotta say this claim is maybe a little too aggressive. I know for a fact that on a Sun-3 (68020 SunOS Desktop Pizza Box) using either gcc or the bundled cc, all of them would have been the same answer, and the answer would have been known to the coder, before running that code (unless you unleashed one of the gcc command line dogs). Except maybe #5, because who does this?

the problem is that QT is write on C++. It makes harder to make bindings to any other language.

The smaller any given piece of debris is, the greater it's surface area:mass ratio is, and therefore the faster it deorbits due to drag.

Project Kuiper and Starlink both put the very large, thousands-of-satellites constellations low enough that trash gets cleared quickly enough that even a set of multiple catastrophic collisions is very unlikely to threaten most of the network, and even if they all just blow up, the pieces will fall down shortly and clear the orbit for reuse. For Starlink, drag is actually so high that they are using the solar array as a sail for attitude control.

Without medication I suffer from around 31 migraines in 31 days. Opioids wouldn’t hardly touch the pain. They’d just make it so I didn’t care I was in so much pain.

That’s absolutely what we should all be doing for each other - meaningful, supportive connections for one another.

I don't pay for labor. Amusingly, an MBA student interviewed me about my tiny business, and could not wrap his head around the fact that I don't count labor in my cost of goods. I do have a rough estimate of profit, and of how many hours I work. The closest thing I could offer him was a ratio of these numbers, which is typically around $100 per hour. I make my widgets in my basement, and am usually able to take care of everything in one evening per week. It's the closest thing to passive income that I've been able to come up with so far.

I follow a rule that's common among micro-businesses, which is to waste zero time on disputes. I always offer a full refund right away, along with a boilerplate list of troubleshooting suggestions. In virtually every case, the customer comes back in a few days and agrees that my product works. But because of this, I consider a dispute to be an immediate loss, and not a dollar amount hanging in limbo.
> I don't think China is any more evil than the US. So if I'm okay with using infrastructure from AT&T and its Room 641A, Verizon and its Quantico circuit, and the various PRISM companies, I have no logical reason to object to infrastructure that may be similarly compromised by the Chinese government.

One big problem is that there is no recourse against China. Unless you have some long term plans of joining their politburo and making changes 25 years from now, there's no way to way to apply direct pressure for change.

Say what you want about the USA's intelligence organizations but at the end of the day there's a path for change. We elect a new top of the house every four years and all our intelligence agencies (are supposed to...) report to our civilian leaders. China's is a black box that's only getting darker over time.
Social clubs of various forms have been a part of society for a long time. You could get a long way if sports clubs were a welcoming place to go hang out and socialize instead of just rentable facilities where you have to book a time and provide your own opponents.

The amount of parentheses is dizzying.
I think the major benefit of a native/compiled language like C or Rust over interpreted/JIT ones like Python or Javascript for desktop applications is the overhead in terms of distribution size and memory consumption.

Speed doesn't come into it that much. Current desktop systems are fast enough such that most GUI manipulation just isn't a speed bottleneck, except for things like realtime graphics or something.
Oh, I see - I take my comment back then :-)
> This is only really the case where the prototype was fundamentally solving the right problem in the right way to begin with and the subsequent changes are incremental in nature. If the design of, say, a microcomponent is flawed from the outset or it did the wrong thing and you have to re-do it, those "stiff" tools slow you down.

This. So, so, so, so much this.

I absolutely agree that getting the contours of the tool right (nice analogy there) is (one of) the hardest parts. The main issue I find when using strict, type-driven FP langs for "first draft" style implementations is that I waste time with the unavoidable ceremony that most of these languages require, when what I really want to be doing is probing around to discover the rough edges. The "my last name is Curry" style of FP almost requires you to declare these edges up front as you code.

I actually find that TDD is even more useful in FP contexts than in procedural - mainly because a) it's a good way to help think about the shape of the tool before building it, and b) the FP implementations are often more mentally complex with recursion, pattern matching, and other such things that (IMO) require more brainpower to grok than simple procedures, and to be honest I just find myself needing the tests so I don't go mad trying to be a human compiler. I think even the most staunch TDD fanatics wouldn't try to argue that it's a fast way to prototype.

These days I find myself reaching for dynamic languages with gradual typing for prototypes that might hit production (JS+TS, Python, even PHP). When I'm satisfied with the general shape, I'll add a few type hints here and there to make my IDE friendlier. After a while, usually at the point where there are large additions to requirements, I'll find myself rewriting at least a chunk of the original in a completely different manner, usually in a more type-driven manner, usually with a more FP slant, and often in a different language with more strictness.

I would like to see more mainstream languages support both type-driven FP and simple procedural code without using Haskell-inspired syntaxes or turning into the incomprehensible mess that is Scala. Java is slowly morphing that way, but it still lacks some of the FP fundamentals for when you do want to go full-zealot.
Use Electron, then everyone on all OSes will hate your application. /s

I did not see people asking for GTK apps to be ported to Qt (if it happens is much lower then the rewrite it in rust phenomenon) , there were a number of projects that switched from GTK2 to Qt instead of GTK3 because they re-evaluated the toolkits and decided Qt was better for those projects.
In the movie you are certain that this is not happening. In the roulette your mind actually thinks that you won. When you win $500 in the roulette you think you have won whereas you actually lost money by playing and you are riding some random fluctuations. Few people can intuitively understand the concept that when you win money at the roulette you actually lost $0.2 per spin in a $1 roulette multiplied by the times you spinned.
Good old PEBKAC
> television can help fulfill all sorts of emotional needs: social, excitement, creativity, escapism, curiosity, etc.

Yes. I totalle agree. I think social was most important for me. The problem with TV is that it fulfills those needs but very inefficiently. It takes a lot of time of lying inert in front of TV to get any significant fulfillment. And the insidious part is that because people are lying down they think they are resting. But that's rarely true. Lying down especially for hours tires you even more.

So TV provides you with versatile fulfillment but at very slow rate and at a significant cost that's not easy to notice.
I don't know if POSIX specifies CHAR_MAX, but on most systems, storing the value into a char will change the value, making it everything but 416: https://tio.run/##S0oszvifnFiiYFeSWlyil6xgY@Pq7/Y/M69EITcxM0...
