Of course it's not just accidents we'd need to worry about if we didn't age — there's also murder, warfare, suicide, infectious diseases, etc. I think Aubrey de Grey said the average lifespan would be ~500-1000 years absent age-related diseases.
Alternatively, households stop buying expensive foreign goods and substitute cheaper but potentially inferior domestic goods (eg. baby formula that may be laced with melamine). So domestic manufacturers can still win, even if households don't.
I'm not saying that the Chinese government is a good government. But a slaving government IS better than warlords. And historically speaking, the current government did unify China in 1949, which is a very important thing in Chinese culture.

If we were to overthrow the Chinese government, can we get a better tomorrow for the Chinese people? The west have show us what happened in Middle East. Clearly, wars are not what we want.

I'm saying that we want democracy, we do want that, but blaming it all to "the evil communist party" is not a good way show us how to get a democracy, please provide some practical guidance. Thanks.

I'm not referring to Cloudflare. There are many other FaaS providers, e.g., Zeit's Now. It's true that cold boots are more probable for low-traffic sites. If your function recently ran, it's unlikely for a subsequent execution to be a cold boot.

But it could be luck of the draw that Google's crawler hits your site during a period of low traffic, and your functions have to cold boot. That could impact page rankings, as response times influence those.

I worked on console games for a large company and we were paid bonuses that bracketed larger depending on how well the game sold, so not exactly royalties, but close. For large companies, I think this is pretty standard. It was the same when I worked in CG films as well.

I don’t speak for “most” games though. More games are made by small teams than large ones. For indie and mobile games, the creators/devs might be only getting royalties, and no salary.
"Meme" doesn't mean "false" or "exaggerated" but it seems that's how you took it.

Possibly. You can get motors running 90+% efficiency, but only in a more or less narrow power band. If they can improve the efficiency in the ends of that bell curve, even if it's not an overall efficiency increase across the entire power/torque/rpm/"throttle" range, they might realistically be getting a 50% increase in "real world" use... Especially if they can do that in a way that removes the need for a gearbox (to keep the motor in it's highly efficient range).
I find the obvious propaganda (like this) both amusing and useful (well in this case not very useful).

Agreed. Few people ever read and follow those proofs. Another related issue is proofs by computer e.g. the four coloring problem. No human will ever understand every step the computer is doing in these proofs but they can understand the program doing the proof and why it must be correct. If we insist on proofs like Euclid's proof that there are infinite primes or sqrt(2) is irrational then these computer proofs are clearly different. If we must use a computer is the proof somehow "ugly"? I don't think so but maybe I'm wrong.

Unpopular opinion: the value of a culture is largely in the novelty it can offer to others. (This is explained in the article itself with the "adding sugar to milk" parable.)

Thanks for making it clear the intended workflow is to fork a gist. I might recommend making that actually part of the application suite, even.

I guess I need to look deeper into how SharpScript does things to get the proper terminology going, but, by way of explanation, I use Python in my day job.

As such, I was thinking along the lines of "how do I deploy a SharpScript Gist App with several Gist dependencies?".

In Python-land this would minimally be a Python script in a file and a requirements.txt file.

The requirements.txt file typically is a line-delimited file that has package names (or URLs, importantly) with optional version specifiers.

Since the Python Package Index is immutable, if I specify package "foo==1.2.3", I can be relatively certain that I will retrieve that package and that version, even if there are newer versions or the author deletes their upstream source control repository.

Anyway, I'm basically wondering what the SharpScript Gist Application approach will be to say "This script depends upon these gists with these versions".

I'm advocating for the default method to always specify a particular immutable version of a gist, otherwise, you will run the risk of these "always updated" gists changing in unexpected ways including malicious ones that perhaps check to see if they are on a CI server and steal credentials, etc.

Circling back to the top, I think if the only route to be sure that you have a permanent and immutable copy of a Gist Application is to fork it, then I further advocate that the SharpScript tooling should make this as easy as `sharp fork url-to-gist`.
Go needs to allocate a growing stack on the heap, needs to move it around, etc. It's not as efficient as Rust's async.

"Do they not want promotions or pay increases at their current jobs before leaving? Usually you have to do good quality work to get promoted."

In my experience, algs interviews are far, far more fair than promos. You don't need to do good work to get promoted, just be friends with the boss or lie about how much "impact" you had, at least that's what I've seen in big tech and it's been extremely frustrating. Learning to code well definitely doesn't matter much, the measurements for promotion are gamed by the dishonest and/or subjective enough to let the bosses promote their best friends.

While doing well on interviews isn't the only way to be recognized, it's the only consistent way the market continues to pay you properly if the company decides not to promote you. Suddenly my code was considered amazing once I brought another offer.

I don't get why they don't just slowly ramp up this model to figure out how and if it works. I assume Netflix has troves of data on viewer preferences and what types of shows would work. Apple is just dumping half of Netflix's budget blindly into a bunch of shows.
The current rumors point to Disney+ being fully interoperable with a Apple’s ecosystem (Apple TV channels, launching on Apple’s platforms, etc), and not interoperable with Amazon’s platform or devices.

I’m curious whether Apple has worked out a Disney bundle.

$10/mo seems high for their initial launch.
Stopping innovative hardware to focus on subscription services is a sad day for Apple. Banking on people forgetting to cancel a monthly subscription to keep profit margins up is certainly a way to make a buck but for a company that used to be a world beater this is a whimper.
That version of Rust also did async I/O in the runtime. Async I/O has always been part of Rust. The model changed because there was too much overhead doing it the more ergonomic way and it got booted out of the runtime.

>perhaps the finest soldier of his generation, General David Petraeus...

I thought this article was working its way up to some profound statement, then I read this. Petraeus represents everything wrong with the modern leadership caste of America. He was a brown nosing, social climbing, rat-faced paper pushing apparatchik who never served in combat, screwed up Mosul, screwed up the rest of Iraq, then took credit for our massive "success" there, and proceeded to "lead" the CENTCOM by issuing press releases his lizard overlords told him to. Then he proceeded to "win" in Afghanistan (note sarcasm since we're still bloody there), take over the CIA (overseeing one of the greatest intelligence disasters of a recent US history littered with them: Benghazi), and get caught with his dong in his nitwit hagiographer, exposing classified information while he was at it to boot. He never showed any character or depth of thought, but he was a genius at handling the media, which is pretty much exactly the primary "leadership" characteristic of the modern era. Bleauch. Patton was an American leader. Petraeus will be forgotten as thoroughly as Gideon Pillow, excepting as a cautionary tale of who not to hire to pacify foreign polities when your empire is in the late Brezhnev stage of decomposition.

Anyway, yes, I am pretty sure Napoleon and Alexander the Great took long walks, and thought about things deeply. I'm not sure I want such people around, but I sure as shit don't want to hear about ding dongs like Petraeus being worthy of emulation because the dude might have read a book once.
Has Apple ever really pursued being an ISP? I feel like competing with bundled cable Internet at least in the US is going to be the main thing holding back potential cord cutters sometime soon.

The point of propaganda isn't actually to promulgate a lie that obscures the truth. It's to promulgate a lie that people will repeat. It may eventually reach a scale where it can eclipse the truth, but by then it's generally done its job.

You may not be a weak minded fool, there surely are SOME people who are who will be genuinely moved by the now-banned content. Those people will then repeat credulously an idea, making it easier for folks who know better to repeat an idea. That's generally how propaganda starts. Eventually it becomes unquestionable.

I have an ETI-660 that I built in the early 1980's around here somewhere. Possibly it even still works, though I'd need to find an old CRT TV to try. (probably need to replace the capacitors too). Coding in CHIP-8 was my intro to programming.

Your comment is incorrect as well.

The C specification describes semantics in terms of an abstract machine which is actually quite different from real hardware (most notably in terms of how memory works!). It then goes on to say that the compiler may choose to implement it radically differently, so long as the observable semantics (I/O calls and volatile accesses) are preserved. I'd have to double check whether it was C or C++ that said that the compiler is free to assume that infinite loops do not exist.

> Actually, you promise not to change things from another thread, DMA, interrupt handler, signal, etc, with any non-volatile reference passed, let alone a const!

This is not the case. The C specification requires that you use volatile to indicate that code outside of the C execution model may access the memory location. Of your list, only DMA and interrupt handlers are outside the execution model; signal handlers and threads are both considered inside the memory model. The only way for a signal handler to communicate with code outside the signal handler is with volatile sig_atomic_t; volatile int does not cut it. To communicate between threads, you need to ensure proper synchronization. This may involve the use of locks, fences, or atomics with appropriate orderings chosen.

> The compiler loads things into registers and has no way to know if memory in a passed reference changes underneath the hood

To be pedantic, the compiler relies on undefined behavior here. It is undefined behavior if you cause the value to be changed in a way that violates these rules, so the compiler has absolutely no restrictions on what may happen in such executions.

> If you've ever head about how "double check locking" is an antipattern, this is a big part of why.

This has absolutely nothing to do with why double-checked locking is incorrect. Double-checked locking is problematic in large part because of hardware reordering of loads and stores. In general, you need a store barrier to guarantee that all of the modifications the first thread changed has been made visible to other processors followed by a load barrier to guarantee that all prior modifications from other processors have been made visible to the second thread. Volatile does absolutely nothing to provide these barriers (except if you use MSVC, which documents that they treat volatile variables as equivalent to acquire/release semantics on x86 because regular loads and stores on x86 have those semantics anyways--this is nonportable behavior). The double-checked locking pattern does not provide a load barrier in the second thread, which means the ordering semantics are not guaranteed. If you use atomic loads and stores when implementing double-checked locking, you do get the necessary semantics for correctness.
In the light of recent topics about interviews, I do think this website can be a positive effort towards the right direction.

A lot of the challenges here is really close to what we do as developers.
Encarta was one of the few pieces of software that I actually bought when I was a kid. (Slightly embarrassed to admit that as a kid with no income and parents not willing to buy software for me, piracy was a thing.) That was how important it was to me. I felt a fantastic sense of wonder reading through it and felt that I could really be a better person through all this knowledge on my computer.

Another way to look at it, I get a lower trust score to people holding pro-China view because such disinformation campaign is rampant. It is in a way a social punishment that disincentivize such underhanded technique. Does your good faith measure in a way undermine such natural counter mechanism.
