I think the "raw" requirement is the real gotcha here.

You can get plenty of calories from rice and beans. For millenia, the bulk of humanity has lived on really plain foods with little meat (though in some places like europe, north africa, and the middle east, quite a bit of cheese).

Extracting nutrients from uncooked foods is a lot less biochemically efficient for our digestive system, though, and it's going to be the rate-limiting step. If you rule out rice, oatmeal, porridges, bread, tofu, etc... you are likely to be in a mode of basically permanent caloric defect.

A great example is maize. Raw corn is not going to keep you alive for very long. Masa, though, sustains entire civilizations, and it only works because you cook off the meal in high-pH water.
As devil's advocate, think of how many women have sex tapes out there, and think of how many of them built a billion dollar empire on it. What is being one more pop star in comparison?

There are types of great effort which produce zero value and are only judged subjectively. I really respect the guy putting Doom on his microwave, but to most people that is a completely pointless exercise. I suspect popularity is like that. I laugh at the girls taking 400 selfies standing in front of a bridge, to post just one on Instagram, but I can't deny there is some effort and skill going on there.

Could be. But it's not "that hashtag". It's any and all hashtags used on the post.

That's what I was thinking at first, but it's not just my wife's posts. It looks like lots of others have this issue, too.

I've only reached out to one "influencer" (a photographer) with 60k+ followers and he didn't care and said he doesn't ever check on these things. And one bikini brand (55k+ followers) who did notice; their own brand's hashtag often won't "work".

> A single-page application (SPA) is a web application or web site that interacts with the user by dynamically rewriting the current page rather than loading entire new pages from a server.

I guess the definition of an SPA is not as strict as Wikipedia says? But what makes such a web app (like you mention with actual page navigation) an SPA? That's just a ... normal web app/site.

I guess the point was that a perfect SPA has a fallback mode that works without JS? I'm just not sure that exists at the moment. If you invest in an SPA and its (perceived) advantages aren't you choosing it precisely because you want it to be more than a traditional web app with individual pages? Hence all the JS and reactiveness in the browser. Building a degraded fallback mode would be admirable but it's a whole lot of added complexity (have to find alternative UX to accomplish those JS interactive pieces).

If your SPA isn't actually an SPA maybe just stick with a traditional setup. That's why I don't understand the drift in that original comment.

> You can't call that a C "bool" though.

In hardware, C _Bool is just an scalar integer type (1 byte wide almost everywhere these days).

If you define 0 for false, and true otherwise, you can emit much better machine code for all scalar comparisons. For example, when doing scalar == 0 or scalar != 0 (e.g. in null pointer checks) the result is always the scalar itself. The test is a nop, and with "branch on non-zero" instruction, you can just directly branch.

If you define true to some value, you need to actually test whether the scalar is zero, and give it some other value otherwise. That goes from zero instructions to often two instructions (e.g. if the hardware comparison returns 0xffff and you need to convert that to 1).

Ice cream was popular in the 18th century, particularly known to be favorites of George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.

Rossman has earned his grumpy and acerbic attitude in an old fashioned and honest way: routinely repairing expensive devices that were not meant to be repaired. Having to salvage working components from salvaged boards because the manufacturer decided not to supply them. His board working technique is first rate and he goes to great lengths to show you every step of the process. You learn things even if you were to mute the audio and play "Endless Sax Man" instead! How many other Youtube channels would survive that treatment?

Apple engineers are first rate also, but they've been dis-incentivized to do anything that would make affordable component level repair part of the life cycle, its parts distributed widely enough to be accessible, and technicians (factory trained or otherwise) capable, Unless this corporate approach FAILS spectacularly in the end, the human race is heading into a cul de sac of evolution by having its most essential technologies hanging by tiny threads. Some day Apple will decline and their newer technology will all be in the landfill... and Rossman will still be repairing last-generation boards.

But... by failing to make things repairable and removing whole customer care layers from their business plan, Apple has managed to bring prices down! That's a joke BTW
I think a lot of incidental tools are generated by focusing on your core business. For example, I work at an ISP. Something we do is generate Letters of Agreement for cross-connect at shared sites. This involves making a nice-looking PDF from some HTML that the customer's information is substituted into. So I wrote something to use Chrome to generate the PDF, and we couldn't get the page to look nice by using wkhtmltopdf's antiquated rendering engine. Is that our core business? Nope. But it's something we had to do because people want a PDF they can print out and give to their datacenter. No PDF, they can't give us their money. Incorrect PDF, and they get fed up and switch to a competitor. So I think it was worth the day or whatever I spent on it.

I would love to sell access to this API as a service. Sure, you can write your own. Sure, you can buy your own EC2 instance with a gig of RAM to run Chrome. It's easy! I did it myself! Or you could pay us, say, $0.01 per PDF generated and not spend $30/month on that EC2 instance and $200/hour on writing the service and maintaining it.

I think it's a great idea to outsource as much as possible. Some stuff isn't written yet, however, or it's bad. So you have no choice but to do it yourself. The people that have done it themselves and then charge money for it are how outsourcing is possible in the first place. (In fact, that's how EC2 got its start. I feel like that "not focusing on their core business" of selling books over the Internet turned out pretty great for Amazon.)

Justice Department Launches API for Foreign Lobbyist Data
That's not the point - the point is that this is a loophole that effectively says, third-parties can do whatever they want with respect to your private information through our website and app and we're not at all responsible. This more or less renders the privacy policy entirely moot. It's like a vegan restaurant coming up with a "vegan guarantee" agreement that is supposed to guarantee that the dining experience is vegan, but excludes "third-party" ingredients from the guarantee. And it more or less says, you're subject to Google's privacy policy, when you visit the New York Times site, which means everything bad about Google's privacy policy is included in the New York Times privacy policy.

From a technical standpoint, what's happening is that New York Times is running arbitrary code that it doesn't know anything about on the browsers of people that visit their site. And they are claiming that they are not responsible for what it does, despite the fact it's delivered through New York Times.
How does the situation in Zimbabwe or Venezuela fit into your argument? Seriously.
I've been having this thought, however strange it may seem, it seems to me that the vegan movement, rightly justified by the cruelty that industrialization brings towards animals, is probably achieving the opposite effect of its original goal, that is, to stop killing animals for food.

The ideal solution, in my opinion, would be to brew tissue in a factory, sans brains, just the muscular system of animals. Seems plausible, right?

The problem is to reach that state, we require research. Research needs funding, and the only ones with an incentive to do that are companies that deal with meat. I imagine it is way more expensive to take care of animals than it would be to just grow muscles. But now that veganism is eating the world, that creates an impediment to that incentive, as the demand is now reduced and so the companies can just sustain their current production levels instead of finding ways to optimize them and therefore funding the research necessary.

So, in effect, veganism is causing more animals to die in the macro-process of us reaching the technological state of growing tissue in the lab.

What do you think?
Of course it is. Don't be tedious.

France passes tax on tech giants despite US threats
It's important to note that most of the advanced technology that Germany gets credit for in WWII was designed, built and destroyed all in a matter of a decade or two.

The Bismarck is another good example. It was the largest, heaviest, strongest, most advanced battleship of it's time. There was no single allied ship that could match it's performance or firepower or withstand combat against it for very long.

And the Bismarck was sunk 9 months after she was commissioned. Not by a toilet, not by inexperience; but because the entire British navy identified the gargantuan risk and superflous symbology of destroying the pinnacle of German tech. That, and it sunk the symbolic HMS Hood (arguably second best warship at the time) battleship in an almost comedic display that lasted mere minutes. The Titanic took hours to sink but the Hood, a ship of similar size and weight, was gone in mere seconds after being hit by the Bismarck's deck guns. After that the Bismarck was the only thing Britain cared about.

The reason German tech didn't last wasn't because the tech was inferior. It was because for every one unit Germany built, there were 5 allied units with crosshairs trained on it. The hunting was simply better for the allies than it was for Germany towards the end of the war, after Germany had been crippled by allied carpet bombing.

Just point at the data. The extra layer of attitude doesn't sell your argument, but just distracts from it.

Sort the first table by rank US - 87 UK -109 France - 117 Germany - 148. When we talk about the West who else is anyone referring to? Denmark - 144. Norway - 146.

My comment is in response to someone separating the US from the west, not US compared to the rest of the world. So don't be in such a hurry to react.

The data shows the US is more diverse than other western countries.

Population is another important factor. What happens in a city of 10 million people and what happens in a country of 10 million people is very different. I come from India and have lived in both the US and Europe. My city has a population somewhere between Ireland and Norway but it's impossible to handle social issues the way those countries do or use them as models precisely because of the population density and diversity.

One editor setup cannot satisfy all of the diverse preferences of all "religious" editor users. You have to support significant customisation to "convert" us.

Maybe the editor should be customisable via Dark itself?

Alternatively, allow us to use our editor-of-choice and provide a language server to facilitate the creation of structured editing plugins for Dark.

I would add that most applications, including most non-vi-or-emacs editors and web browsers, do not allow much customisation of how their input is mapped to actions in the software. For someone like me, a person that is a vi die-hard because of its ergonomics, this is absolutely critical. Post-input customisation, no matter how advanced, cannot satisfy this need.
That really seems like a solution to a problem that no one has/cares about.
> Hack Clang to emit ~0 for true, recompile your kernel and userspace, and see how much of it breaks.

The ABI of your platform might require special values for true and false, e.g., the SysV64 ABI explicitly requires 0 for false, and 1 for true.

So you would need to define a new platform for doing these tests, and then to test some code, you would need to port it to this new platform. AFAICT, if you port that code correctly, everything would work, and if something doesn't work, then you didn't port that code correctly.

So this experiment feels moot.

Clang can't compile the Linux kernel, so I hope you mean some other kernel. Otherwise, without a kernel, the system won't even boot :P
