I am happy for people who has energy, free time, and will to prove their abilities.

I don't have the will, or energy for that.

I have been working in the area like for the approx. last 2 decades. If anyone wants to validate if I can really code, can put 1 hour of their time and go over my github/gitlab profiles instead of asking 1 hour of my free time to redo what I was doing professionally.

This will be counted against their paid time, but not mine. This is asking some sacrifice on my part for a process everyone knows is highly subjective, and not really doing the expected.

And more to that, while working I solve real problems of the business. I do work with colleagues. I do use as much time as needed to do research. I don't get on a dumb IDE which is not integrated to my workflow, or tooling and do puzzles with illogical limits.
There's a feedback loop, regardless of whether we find the communities virtuous or not. It's not difficult to see how, for instance, the boardgamegeek forums helped turn a very niche strategy hobby into something that has a nice sized shelf at Target, with a market over a hundred times larger than 20 years ago. You still needed people that could enjoy such social pastimes, and different societal changes will have an effect of how many people are even interested in such things, but the meeting ground sure makes a difference, as it reinforces the interest, and makes it easier for people to dive deeper on it. It just happens to be something that we consider harmless, or even positive.

o while there sure are more desperate people that have antisocial tendencies, just for economic issues, whether they consider those tendencies to be socially acceptable, and whether delving more on them is something that they will do, depends on finding social validation, and nowadays, we do that on the internet pretty easily. This kind of thing could still happen in the past: History tells us so, but the level of disengagement, and depth of the economic reasons required to trigger the radicalization of people, in one form or another, is far lower than before. It doesn't matter if it's people finding support and advice on how to kill themselves, bulimics seeing that their behavior is normal, or just a teenager that finds other people that likes music from the 50s, or goes very deep into pinball. Similar shapes, except some have deadly consequences.

The "Google News" search can not be seen as an objective search for "news" as it is biased both by the selection and weighting of sources by Google (staff and algorithms) as well as by the search history profile. If you still want to use Google News make sure to access it using a clean browser profile (not logged in, no Google-related cookies) to avoid the search profile contamination which otherwise colour the result. The source selection and weighting bias can not be avoided as that is part and parcel of the way the thing works.

An evolving set of 9 guidelines for making the most of the human experience
Every language has flaws. Some of the best languages are those that take existing languages and just throw out some of the bad legacy mistakes, making what’s often a slightly different but pretty much objectively “better” language.

For example: Kotlin is a better Java in almost every way.

The problem with almost all such languages is that they aren’t different enough from their “parent” languages, meaning they struggle to gain traction. Both D and Kotlin are here.
Hearing testing for the most part isn't about the patient giving better/worse feedback. It's about determining the quietest levels at which you can hear each frequency, and how much loudness you need to accurately identify sounds and speech. The tester has to assess when the patient's performance is better or not, because it's blind testing. The patient's feedback is in the form of either signalling "I heard that", or repeating the words that were just played.

> The main critic from my point of view is the fact that the country renounced using nuclear power, but that’s what people in Germany were asking for.

Oh really? Germany held a referendum where the majority of "the people" voted against nuclear? I don't think so. There's no reliable way to know what "the people" really want other than a referendum IMO. I don't believe for a second that "we know" that this is what Germans wanted.

As far as I remember Merkel used the (German) emotions during the Fukushima nuclear disaster as an argument to shut down all German Nuclear reactors. The timing: the political campaigns for the next elections about 2 weeks later. The decision to close down Germany's nuclear plants was political. The votes on Merkel (her party) are not equal to German anti-nuclear votes. I don't agree that there is a way to know that "this is what the people wanted". Let's not pretend Germany is a direct democracy...

It's impressive that Germany got to 35 % renewable. It's CO2 emissions however have not gone down sufficiently to reach their 40 % reduction goal[1]. In part because "renewable" doesn't mean "no CO2 emitted". Renewables still emit significantly more CO2 than nuclear plants do per generated unit of energy. Solar panels need to be produced, transported, installed and maintained, they are not recyclable, their lifetime is very limited (25 to 50 years efficient production). A similar thing goes on with wind. Renewables are also more deadly per TWH than nuclear. Even when counting all the disasters [2].

Compare France (a nuclear power generation country) to Germany and this all becomes very clear. France has one of the lowest consumer electricity prices in Europe. Germany has the second highest consumer electricity price in the world. Yet, France has significantly lower CO2 emissions per capita.

Also, the "wasted CO2 cost" of shutting down nuclear plants prematurely is not 0. Significant amounts of CO2 are produced during installing and "uninstalling" of nuclear power plants. If you close such a plant prematurely it means the tons of CO2 per generated TWH go up. Your clean nuclear plant all of a sudden becomes dirtier. I wasn't able to find or calculate how significant this is however.

British colonization of India started in 1612 and was complete around 1750. The first British colony in America was established in 1607.

Resources from the Indian Raj, in particular, played a crucial role in enriching Britain and therefore financing the industrial revolution.
A single query can hit 100s of CPUs. There's over 60k Google search queries per second, according to some random source found on the internet. That would require 600k CPUs. If it's 1000 machines that's being hit it would require 6M CPUs. Also, Internet traffic is bursty, there's maybe 2-3x more queries in peak times.

My experience with working at a FAANG: I remember a service that was easily dealing with >10M QPS (albeit much simpler queries than a Google search), or some other services continuously processing (reading/writing to disks) > 100 GB/s.

There's A LOT you don't see in FAANG frontends. In particular, the Twitter thread owner suggesting https://developers.google.com/speed/ has no idea where is the slowness coming from.

That being said I'd love to be a Google employee to investigate those queries. Perfect bug reports.

Qantas Flight 72 is probably a good demonstration of why using MCAS as a band-aid for the 737 MAX's stability issues is a bad idea. One of the key reasons that fault didn't lead to a crash that killed everyone on board is that Airbus placed much safer limits on the amount of control authority their flight envelope protections had and the altitude at which they could operate.
I provided one example, there are countless other hadith indicating the same thing. Also, Quranism is not a widely held belief, please stop trying to pass off something fringe as if its what most Muslims would be inclined to believe. If we were to discard the hadith we simply could not practice a number of tenants of our religion, since they contain explanations for things like how to perform hajj, janaza and prayer. You shouldn't discard something that's been so well authenticated (as the sahih have been) simply because there are 3 hadith in their entirety over which there is slight doubt (which most have scholars have concluded was unwarranted).
If you're interested in slow queries, try the one below (via [1]):

Last time I checked (~year ago) Docker used different iptables chain(s) than ufw or added itself before ufw rules, so ufw was useless in securing access to ports exposed by containers.
Generally, there isn't an efficient object model for CBOR (three really troublesome features are the use of arbitrary CBOR structures as map keys, 64 bit unsigned negative numbers, and semantic tagging resulting in data being represented in an alternative form e.g. a BigDecimal type rather than a binary array).

As a result, round-tripping through a CBOR implementation still may result in data structure changes. Depending on the type of change and any exploits in say the hashing algorithm, this could be a security issue.

On the flip side, you can just tag a byte array as CBOR data, and sign it. Unlike JSON, you don't need to perform an encoding/escaping to make one document safe to embed into another document.
Bing seems to simply ignore the quotes in your query after the first result (for query "This idea that you need to water down your pricing or offer a free beta period is bogus") and then just displays random results. Even SoundCloud is listed there..
I also think that the landing page should give an indication of what the UI looks like (in addition to the feature list that you currently already have).

> Wouldn't it be easier for them to remain single and enjoy their freedom and wealth?

Men married later then women. That way men got more years of freedom. That was normal.

Women wanted to marry, because economy, because married women had higher social status, to leave parents house, because that was expected of them anyway etc.

Single men were somewhat discriminated against too in employment situations and married men had higher social status.

Nevertheless, stereotype at time was girl trying to force marriage from male afraid of commitment. Perfectly reasonable answer to question about that exactly.
Is saying you are better than Bing and DuckDuckGo saying a lot?
I think one should notice who is in the commercials to then realize what over the air TV has lost and who their now target audience is. You find a lopsided amount of ads for seniors for pain medication and other drugs along with incontinence. And ads targeting women and blacks--often interracial couplings. So this says TV has lost mainstream viewers who are now on cable and the internet.
It's a very interesting technology, especially since it holds the promise to directly realize an almost arbitrary phase-mask (analogous to a lens' shape) that has been found using already existing optical design technologies. The problem, as in the article is size though.

Apart from the optical (especially on-chip) applications, in theory, it's possible to have a freeform surface and cover it with small meta-atoms (subwavelength structures) so that reflected wave-fronts are planar again, like the incoming one. With millimeter waves such structures are way easier to make than on the tens-of-nanometer scale - these will be used in all kinds of aerospace products. And iirc, the first application (according to Frederico Capasso) was laser optics on a satellite that had to be compacted and have their weight reduced.

It is not about ignoring the crashes. But as both crashes were caused by MCAS, you cannot make a safety statement about a 737 without MCAS or rather with a fixed one.

In many cases I don't think social media helps young men OR women at all. To summarise a discussion I had with a friend who has teenager kids recently - when we were growing up we had magazines telling us what was 'cool'. Music, movies, clothes. They appeared once a week or month. Television and film 'cool' was behind real life. The Daily Mail was a paper your parents read - that as odious as it may have been - didn't have to space to point out every young actress/model/instagrammer's beach cellulite. You might have been bullied at school for not wearing Nike sneakers, but you could buy _any_ Nike sneakers and largely escape attention.

Now social media blasts kids with "this is what's cool" on an hourly basis. Not got the latest Off-White? Uncool. Jordan Mids? Uncool. Still wearing [brand here]? Uncool. On top of that, everyone promoted is wealthy, beautiful and photoshopped. And on top of that it's all insanely addictive. So not only are you told over and over you're behind with the latest trends, and not only are you made to feel over and over that you're not pretty/wealthy/happy/cultured/whatever enough, but you're addicted to seeing it. And then everyone has a platform to bully you for it 24 hours a day. It's not even like you have that 12 hour respite where you're not at school.

I can't begin to imagine how as a fragile teenager this sort of thing would have affected me. Props to anyone young that keeps their head together.

Anyway, just my 2c.

I've been working on a general purpose binary and text encoding format for some time now as a personal project. It supports time, decimal floats, binary blobs as first-class citizens, supports comments, and focuses on encoding the most commonly used values more compactly. The binary format [1] is almost done (I've come up with a more compact date representation that I'll be adding this weekend to replace smalltime in the C and go implementations), and the text format isn't far behind.

I almost had a better floating point compression format, but it turned out to be too complicated, and only works well for decimal floating point, so I'll probably not use it in CBE.

>Why go through such an extreme measure in dealing with other countries' natural resources, while internal environmental problems are not properly addressed.

Eu não posso entender: Your proposed solution is that Brasil should carry-on doing whatever it wants with the Amazon Rain Forest and other countries should address their own CO^2 emissions, correct?

What is the argument, then, when you consider that Brasil will surpass those very same countries in CO^2 emissions when it no longer has a sink to counteract the effects of its own emissions?

Essentially, you're saying, "Everyone should look after their own messes and let us do what we want," whilst largely ignoring the fact that Brasil would - based on your proposition - be the resultant Sampson to the environment as a direct byproduct of that very premise.

Why can't it be both that the "world's lungs", as the Amazon Rainforest is oft coined, not be devastated and other countries fix their emissions?

This "muh sovruntee" mentality is precisely why we're stagnating (or even regressing) any progress on the positive feedback loop that we're currently sliding into. For example (if I understand correctly), it's why the states backed out of the Paris Agreements[0].
