Subtle, but important, difference.
I've developed a fascination with astrophotography, one day hope to have a camera that can manage more than pinpoints/streaks/black noise, and while I always liked to go look at the stars on clear nights the technical aspects of it have reawakened the interest in space. Seeing the Milky Way across the sky at night with the naked eye is amazing and makes it hard to forget your smallness. You can get lost thinking stars are just pinpoints of light because they all generally look the same, but larger masses of them and seeing galaxies, clusters etc in binoculars etc just juices me up. Imaging that I can SEE Jupiter but the light is taking 45min to reach me is mind-blowing. Forget the larger distances to stars...it's inconceivable at times. Sometimes I have gotten vertigo seeing how our Solar system is tilted and imagining us swirling through the arm.

One thing that seems to have changed is visible satellites. Or maybe I am just missing them. I recall as a child watching the sky with my grandfather and you'd regularly see a "star" moving across the sky and he'd excitedly point it out as a satellite.

I'm not missing arbitrary frequency components; please reread the penultimate paragraph, where I mention them explicitly. As I said there, you can extend my argument about a single frequency to include all multiples of that base frequency, and since you can set the coefficient for each frequency arbitrarily based on your ordering, you can set the fourier coefficients arbitrarily and in so doing recover any waveform you want.

Also, your point about commutativity is more subtle than you think; it fails for an infinite sum because you have an infinite space in which to rearrange things. Sure, the terms cancel eventually, but you can keep sticking the negative terms farther and farther back in a pattern so that by the time they've cancelled earlier positive terms, there's already a bunch of new positive terms to take their place. The subtlety comes from the fact that you can keep doing this forever, and you can do it in a way where the sum eventually converges to a specific value.

But don't take my word for it. This is an extremely well-known and basic result in mathematical analysis (the fancy math term for calculus and related topics). Again, see links above, or go straight to a proof [0]. If you want a deeper understanding, check out Rudin's Principle's of Mathematical Analysis [1], which explains this and other fun math stuff very well.

[edit] Just to be crystal clear, the Riemann series theorem does not apply to partial sums, which is what you are saying; if you do an infinite sum on a conditionally convergent series (like the alternating harmonic sum, a variation on which I used in my example), then your final result can literally be any number you want based on how you order the terms in the series. You can set it up so that the infinite sum keeps getting closer an closer to an arbitrary value. If this sounds nonintuitive, it's because infinite phenomena are subtle and nonintuitive!! This is a very cool example of how weird things get once you start dealing with the infinite.

I think the Baltimore Sun probably likes Europe just fine - what they don't like are self-contradictory rule sets that can cost them $20,000,000+ on top of the cost of achieving "compliance."

'Sarah Toporoff, a Massachusetts native who works in Paris for the Global Editors Network, which promotes newsroom innovation, raised similar questions. She said U.S. newsrooms “are a benchmark for digital innovation” — and it’s important that their content be available in Europe.'

'It is naive and wholly irresponsible to think that U.S. news holds no relevance beyond U.S. borders...'

Perhaps, then, Europe should've had some international discussion about their hyper-aggressive legislation, to try and prevent this situation. I am dumbfounded that anyone thinks the U.S. corporations are to blame for not spending millions to comply with a foreign law from countries where they have no legal representation.

Preventing that sort of 'taxation without representation' is something of a popular idea over here.

I don't have time to go insane today, so I have tried not to look at the code directly. But, "hundreds of distinct cases" would cause me to reach for a data-directed method using a lookup table or other decision-tree data structure.
I didn't take your question as bad faith, I appreciate it actually, but I didn't have time during the work day to cite sources. The one posted is the most scientific one I know of. I have seen self reported surveys of transgender communities that hit numbers that high, but that's obviously not scientifically rigorous. Food for thought tho.

I keep myself informed on transgender issues because I have transgender people near and dear to me and I have transgender colleagues at work. In my personal life many of the transgender women I know identify as on the spectrum, some more intensely than others. 1 in 4 sounds right anecdotally as well.

Anecdotally, I think it might be true that younger people in general are more receptive to identifying as autistic while people my age or older might be averse to it even with the same experiences.
I meant respectfully blame, fwiw. If your plugin crashes my browser and I like the plugin, I'll fix it / send a bug report. If I don't like it, or it's beyond repair, I'll uninstall it.

Well, I'm not really an expert, but room correction seems like an imperfect solution to an annoying problem in situations where you don't feel so crafty. I'd agree that obsessive room treatment is the way to go if you can plan a space for audio with the time, resources and dedication needed.

It obviously makes sense to turn room correction on and off and check the difference over the range of seating being used in any given situation. Do no harm, etc.

The run-ins I've had with room correction, with my own cheap hi-fi gear, as well as the and higher end stuff my cool friends have, indicate that room correction can be very handy.

Even the room correction built into the 2018-model EUR 400 Yamaha amp I have at home does more good than harm, with the little Genelec sub and Polk satellites. That is, in a regular residential setting, where everything doesn't happen on the terms of audio reproduction, to put it politely towards other concerned parties.

Similarly, this cottage thing revolves around my synesthetic friend's family owning and keeping up the place in a multi-generational social dance of compromise, which this very stylish friend finds annoying and moderately embarrassing.

There's not exactly the tasteful minimalist decor my friend would prefer, but a type of deliberately shabby, cartoonishly frugal kitsch you'd typically find in Finnish summer homes, where people just want to feel freed of suburban respectability norms. More to the point, my friend's mom wouldn't take kindly to acoustic treatment interfering with her live-laugh-love game.

I on the other hand have done the political hand wringing required to have my living room seating arranged for audio in the small apartment I share with my SO. And the sub is placed behind my couch where there happens to be a sharp, little corner that nicely traps bass resonance elsewhere than the couch, so DSP makes smaller adjustments.

Likewise, my Yamaha amp's room correction saved me that hour-or-so of annoyance of flipping DIP switches back and forth on the bottom of the Genelec sub to manually listen for the correct phase setting, or whatever it's called.
Please let me know 1 month before that starts to snowball. Thx.

I agree with you, or, I did, until they switched to the metal renderer. Now iTerm is as fast as terminal.app (provided you use the same settings)
The accompaniment hand is practiced to the point where it's automated, so not truly.
The iPhone has been the most expensive, premium product since the day it was launched (see the incredulous Balmer video about the $599 subsidized price). It was also the primary engine that drove Apple to being one of the richest companies on earth, ever. For years people have said it was doomed to failure because it was overpriced, but here we are, with an iPhone that is more expensive than ever, probably even adjusted for inflation.
It's about damn time.
And it was snowing in Denver on Memorial day.

Weather is not climate, yada yada.

What is it going to take to get a global consensus that we'd like to have unadjusted temperature data, not controlled by adjusters that have a funding agenda?

What would it take to get a little raw data up in the house?
That probably explains why their model has the driver taking on the liability then.
Interesting... so let's assume everyone can compute it in about the same amount of time, how does the "lottery" work?

OK, I found this fairly informative [1]. It's designed to be an entropy source feeding into a proof-of-stake algorithm.

If you can't run it "that much" faster than everyone else, it's more likely your result is not manipulated to steer an unfair portion of the block reward your way.

I haven't read much about any of this. The point that seems to stick out most is the idea that "everyone" submits some amount of data, versus just the first to reach the difficulty target submitting.

Once you have that concept, then you need time gates to control how quickly the rounds happen, and VDF can be used to dictate the clock rate.

A conceptual piece I must still be missing is how all the submissions are aggregated, and why many/most can't just be ignored. Ah, fucking blockchain catnip.

Contrary to what the moderator said, I don't see this as flaming, offensive, or even hyperbolic. I'm an American and this horrified me. And you could argue that some of our mass shootings are a form of people hunting others for sport.

In fact, instead of being "nationalistic flame war" fodder, your comment seems like reasonable political commentary about the context of a specific type of human rights violation that only occurs in one major developed nation.

Never ceases to amaze me how this site's mods bend over backwards to prevent even the hint of a civility-fracturing flame war while the archives fill with more and more upvoted comments dehumanizing the homeless and the poverty-stricken.
Yes, this kind of "naive coding technique" occasionally pops up, and I think it's a good discussion topic, because its mere existence demonstrates that you can get extremely far in terms of delivering features with a minimal amount of abstraction: "sometimes all you need is a function."

Further, that the code probably would not really be hideously miserable for a more experienced coder to refactor(it's just very duplicated) shows that copy-paste is reasonable for deferring some kinds of architectural decisions. It's not what you would bias towards if you have a whole team pounding away at the same file and rapidly evolving it, but as a solo practitioner who wants to get the feature out and put it away for the day, this style is convenient for letting the code as a whole develop some maturity and functionality before it gets refactored with abstraction.
As an extension developer who recently got one of these offers, your analysis is a good verbalization of my gut feeling on the matter. I turned it down, of course.

While users may feel bad about extension developers not being compensated, I feel like the larger story here is that:

- Companies are buying extensions for nefarious purposes, which presents a huge security risk.

- Evidently, app stores are sufficiently bad at detecting this that it remains profitable.
I work with worse code than this on a daily basis. In fact, it's worse code than this I'm currently hiding from.
Well, your point overlooks the points I was aiming for.

1. Any of those scraps of data have negligible value by themselves, but when they're aggregated and traded their value is vastly increased.

2. I don't have any choice in how those scraps of data were originally gathered and shared. Should I not to have an address? Pay my taxes? Register my vehicles?

I was a Caviar courier in a past life, it paid very well for someone with just a bike ($20-$25/hr before taxes).

That courier was full of shit. You get paid regardless of customer status, and you also get paid per minute over a certain delay threshold. Sounds like you just got a bad actor.
The lacing isn't plastic, it's (as the article mentions) typically waxed linen or some other type of fiber/rope. Zip ties have to be made of a more solid material like plastic, since you need to mold in all those tiny teeth that cause the zip tie to ratchet closed. It's neat that a lot of these plastics are apparently tasty for rodents and other pests to eat though; I wonder if you could add a bitterant to combat this. But zipties will still have other issues caused by the plastic material: brittleness from UV exposure, and cracks due to freeze/thaw cycles and thermal expansion. There's other (non-plastic) alternatives to cable ties though, for example metal hose clamps. Although that might be too harsh on the cables, not to mention being conductive. It seems lacing is by far the gentlest option on the cables, and longer lasting than zip ties, at the cost of requiring more time to set up correctly.
You def shouldn't trust Google, Amazon is somewhat transparent but not great, Apple has said they won't cooperate with the US government in a few cases and MSFT powers most of the business world so you either use them or your business doesn't work.
Witch can be an appropriate word, here, to denote a person of exceptionally low status. "John was a victim of witch-hunting for his political views" is

We tend to use more precise words in these cases, such as doxxing or cyber-bullying, or gang-stalking, etc.
I agree, OpenBSD has excellent security oriented APIs for writing programs in C. However I wouldn't rely too heavily on it if I were trying to make my software as portable as possible. Some security functions like malloc/calloc_conceal, pledge() and unveil() will appear in their man-pages but not on FreeBSD, Linux or Mac man-pages since they are not part of POSIX, so I would have to place #if defined(__OpenBSD__) on it.

For secure POSIX guidelines, I'd prefer OpenBSD's version over the Open Groups documentation [0].
