I agree I've never worked anywhere with really heavy duty CI, as in I've never worked somewhere that automated rollbacks were either trusted in all cases or business acceptable after something was production live. (Which is to say I haven't worked at places that had really significant scale.) And CI is only as good as your test coverage, which is to say if something esoteric is overlooked in your test suite...

the mission statement for a pop sci author should be to educate the public, this means not dumbing down.

the only avoidable reason it's more familiar to the public is because of all the previous pop sci authors preferring to say 23andMe instead of "genome sequencing" and "genome analysis" etc

if enough pop sci articles stop dumbing down the public would better understand what this is all about...
That little snippet misses the entire point.
EVOO having a "low smoke point" isn't myth, it's a scientifically measurable fact.
The stupidity of that article is yes, their pan didn't go past 180 degrees but its because the moisture content of the item being cooked was removing heat from the pan. The entire problem of smoke point has to do with how you cook.
Noted. It is a bit ironic since a common complaint/frustration among PL people (mostly with PhDs) working at google is that they have to work on ads...
Those very same arguments could be rather used to say why Racket is important.
They should open source their platform and provide a variety of online services and also support on running the platform internally, then offer it to the global market of taxi companies, delivery providers and enterprise level car fleets.

They'd probably survive and it would also likely kill off Uber.
This is doesn't pass the burnt smell test. First of all, anyone's who's done even a little bit of cooking will notice that extra virgin olive oil smokes / burns very quickly.

Secondly, this article claims "the oil and the food did not exceed 180⁰ F" which is well below the point where Maillard reaction occurs. Maybe in their specific "we represent the olive oil industry" environment, it didn't exceed this temperature, but I'd take that with a grain of salt.
Yes. Surprisingly, many naive implementations you might assume would be identified aren't. You are far more likely to write a naive implementation that is not identified than one that is. I've spent a few weekends testing many different implementations to better understand the limitations of the compiler at identifying bit-twiddling instructions and it still doesn't work nearly as well as you might hope.

Also, not every compiler will identify a specific bit-twiddling implementation, Clang seems to identify more of these idiomatic implementations than GCC in my experience, but that is anecdotal. The set of code patterns they can identify is not documented anywhere that I've seen, though it must be in the compiler source code somewhere.
What we could do is attempt to develop (air conditioned) domes or underground dwellings, hydroponics and water sparing farming. (Incl. GMO, to hell with greens on that.) That would cushion the blow a lot.
Catalog and save the species we still can, like corals.

Trying to sequester CO2 and CH4 unfortunately won't work well on big scales.

I deep fry above the temperatures given for evoo. Certainly my stir frying is also above those temperatures, though harder to measure. Certain kinds of shallow frying won't burn evoo but I have burnt it in the past and am not ready to trust the word of an olive oil industry group on this matter.
Compiler comes under PL (if you want to publish a compiler paper, PLDI is the place to do that). PL is actually a very broad designation, and there are plenty of non-theory oriented PL researchers.
It's not a myth.

Searing scallops in EVOO produced consistently burnt-oil tasting results until I switched to avocado oil.

My Italian mother growing up would insist on using EVOO to pop popcorn and it always tasted like burnt olive oil. My results are far better using the exact same process but a higher smoke point oil like avocado oil.

I also prefer the results of seared steaks with a higher smoke point oil than EVOO. Especially when I use the iron skillet outside on an oversized bed of glowing hot coals so hot I can barely stand to be near it. I've used EVOO here in a pinch, but it immediately starts to smoke before I've even put the meat on.

This is the stuff that terrifies me. It's a mistake to think we'll never find ourselves in the middle of a warzone just because we live in a rich country.
In the USSR, not working while being able was a crime that, although rarely enforced, carried huge social stigma; and, if you were an "undesirable" on the level of the subset of the drug addicted homeless in Seattle, neither the police nor the class-conscious workers would treat you like a human being. You'd be in forced treatment or jail (after being beat up, possibly) in a blink. An attempted clear delineation of the working class and the underclass (based on the class consciousness where the "parasites" group isn't only composed of the rich), is one of the few good things about "real leftism"... I wish the American leftists picked it up. In the USSR you could have observed a lot of different people in the same exact circumstances (or as close as the government could get them to be - standard apartments, jobs, education, ...) making completely different life choices, to really appreciate that. There were much fewer oppression/inequality/... excuses, but the result was much the same.

There's no need to have empathy towards the underclass silenced by tech money, or whatever. I never had it to start with and never will; and I feel like lots of the people you are trying to "reach" are like that to a large degree, it's just not a fashionable thing to articulate clearly these days. I personally feel completely fine voting for Sanders and other economic progressives, supporting free healthcare, public education, low-income housing, etc. while simultaneously having negative empathy towards habitual criminals and underclass in general. These are not mutually exclusive, as far as I'm concerned they are mutually reinforcing.
The theory is that flaxseed oil (also known as linseed oil) is a polymerizing oil, which is supposed to help with the quality of the surface. Other polymerizing oils (eg Tung oil) aren't food safe.

I notice from the table that unrefined canola has a similar smoke point to unrefined flaxseed oil, so that would make an interesting comparison

Haven't you heard that increasing the number of lanes makes traffic worse?
Contrary to what some people believe, the “general population” follows rules and decorum and doesn’t like people blaring music on the bus, or aggressive pan handlers, or people talking to themselves any more than OP does. If they had a bit more money they’d be driving instead to get away from the troublemakers just like OP. And they are the ones who suffer most when elitists insist that public transit (and public schools, etc.) should be forced to deal with troubled or anti-social people, be de facto homeless shelters, etc.
No. Doing wrong things can be much worse than doing nothing. If you kill off too much biosphere for example, there goes humanity.

Volcanos tend to throw a lot of sulfur in the air which is deadly.
We could disperse dust in other ways, but the risk is that we'd increase albedo of Earth and cook it even more.
I just don't understand what he would gain from the anonymous donation. Tax deduction? Even for the tax purposes the name of a donor has to be matched with a certain record, right? I probably sounds too naive but I want to know.
SPEC is full of undefined behavior, so as far as I know many compiler engineers dislike it because it “breaks” when compilers get better.
> it's jam packed shoulder to shoulder, can smell like puke and piss, subsidezed homeless travel while the rest of us need to pay a dumb fare, requires exact change in world ruled by tap-to-pay devices

This sounds like every subway I've ridden in the states.

(Although most subways have since upgraded to digital payments, the card-filling stations never seem to work, and the attendants aren't always there, so you can't even use exact change. At the same time, most metropolitan buses now use tap-to-pay)
Isn’t there some (highly impractical) algorithm which dovetails through different Turing machines, in a way that has an asymptotically optimal runtime for a given problem, just with really terrible constants?

I thought we knew an algorithm that, if P=NP, would solve NP problems in P time, (but with absurd constants), and otherwise solves the problems is worse than polytime.

But I could be remembering this totally wrong.
Classes made it easier [for me anyway] to understand how react is setup. I understand Component is a prototype, and it gets instantiated first by calling the constructor method - followed by its life cycle methods, like componentDidMount etc. The new hooks API just looks to replicate alot of these methods to make up for losing classes and its life cycle methods. The API seems quite terse. I dont like having lots of nested functions, it makes readability worse IMHO

I also dont like the idea of 'useState' overwriting the whole state object.
A combination of surgeons and football coaches. What a weird dataset.
I really like that idea, although the dust on vinyl is generally statically charged so i'm not too sure how effective that would be. Also the noise might be an issue.
I have a feeling some of the couple hundred thousand people killed in hiroshima and nagasaki would have preferred the war to last one more day if it could mean killing, say, 100K fewer civilians. If there were such tradeoffs to be made.

But I suppose Maj. Gen. LeMay would have prefered killing yet additionals hundreds of thousand civilians if it could mean saving the life of one American soldier.

Just different perspectives I guess.

The tradeoff of using clarified butter is taste. Butter (or oil) can really bring a dish together, much like how salt is basically essential when cooking, for taste.

Clarified butter is butter without the milk solids. Depending on what you're going for, that can impact the taste.

You can cook with EVOO. I've done breaded chicken breasts on the stove with EVOO. Just gotta keep the heat low (still hot enough for food safety standards) and leave the chicken on a little longer.
Anyone know standard time working per month? I thought these major carriers had pretty cushy hours / benefts - (ie, 80 hrs / month, good flight and other benefits).
Yes, agreed.

It is possible, I suppose, that remnants of other "starts" could have survived somewhere that's totally inhospitable to ours. Or perhaps, so different that they're not even food.

Discovering them would be very difficult, though. I mean, we have a hard enough time with all those "unculturable" bacteria. We only know them now through DNA technology.
The only viable kind of gas is biogas which you have to sequester anyway. Other kinds speed up the catastrophe. There cleaner than some coal and oil but that's about it. They're not even close compared to nuclear or renewables.

Why do you need gas? Can't use the electric vehicle or appliance? If you need trace gases for manufacturing, you can sequester them instead.
Yikes I remember reading that thread on usenet. John Nagle, Rob Warnock and Roger Shepherd. Good times. Roger oddly didn't mention the story about guys in black suits and mirrored sunglasses showing up as the reason the T414 lacked popcount but the T800 added it.
Are you kidding? The left lane is for passing only. Some places even have signs pointing this out to the clueless. Driving slowly in the left lane causes the fast idiots to tailgate at 80mph and swerve in and out of lanes to pass the slow idiot.

I wish US cops would enforce anything but moderate speeding and rolling through stop signs.
IIRC, one of the biggest complaint is about performance. namedtuples are not known to be fast, but I think performance has gotten better in more recent Python versions.

This is just what I recall from reading PEPs, the email lists and release notes. My recollection may not be entirely accurate.
I can’t even get software developers to think I’m terms of teamwork (Mostly I can filter by ones that are sympathetic). Imagine trying to get academics to do so.
I don’t think ARM does, but there might be some NEON thing that you can use to do something equivalent.
The requirement for unconditional surrender prolonged the war, many arguments could be made, but unconditional surrender was also necessary to prevent the Japanese government from planning future wars by restructuring their society.

Grand strategy involves decisions for the welfare of societies for a century into the future.
Well... you can. You just can't make them as loud on the absolute scale. But there's nothing preventing you from compressing your audio to death, then reducing the overall volume before you press it to vinyl. Once people turn up the volume, they still get the compressed audio that was the input of the process.

There's also the well-known effect where the process of recording and playing a vinyl creates dynamic range (as measured by various tools) where there is none. Some vinyls that are known to be from the same master as the CD still get much better scores on http://dr.loudness-war.info/

A very nice technical discussion of this myth is here: http://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Myths_(Vinyl)#Myt...
The question of whether the CPU can identify an implementation of it and perform it quicker in dedicated hardware is more interesting, and leads to the argument for CISC --- if POPCNT was there since early x86 but microcoded, it would only get faster once the microarchitecture provides dedicated hardware, and there would be no need to recompile or detect CPU features. On older CPUs without the hardware, it wouldn't be any slower, since the CPU would internally execute the equivalent of a manual implementation, only without needing to fetch and decode each individual macro-instruction of it.
Not only is the download behind a login but they also force you to receive marketing material.

Other than that, I’m genuinely excited about this.

Why is it so difficult to figure out how to get the software?
If you're building a binary tree incrementally, comparing the length of your stack of partially completed subtrees to the popcnt of the number of leaves so far tells you how many subtrees you need to merge :)
Quantum Computing for Computer Scientists (2018) [video]
Sort of - sometimes there's sub-channel data that is very hard to properly replicate; only certain drives even expose that data to correctly extract. Making perfect audio CD image archives is surprisingly hard.

E: Specifically I'm talking about the P & Q channels, but this can also include R through W which while technically unused, still contain data in some form.
There’s a bunch of articles on this site digging into the chemistry of cooking with EVOO. I haven’t dug into the references but it looks like a thorough look at exactly what heating various oils does to the chemistry of fatty acids.

https://suppversity.blogspot.com/2014/12/the-quest-for-optim...
Don’t make the other guy brake is right. Sadly, this is the first time I’ve heard this said by anyone besides myself.
Even somewhat complicated arithmetic will become a constant if possible.

That's one of the simplest optimisations to implement even in a toy compiler, can be done at the asme time as parsing, and comes practically "for free" --- if all operands of an operator are constant, perform the operation and replace the operator and its operands with the constant result; and repeat this recursively.

Everything else is done based on pattern-matching the AST and performing the appropriate transformations.

As a Jakarta resident I can confirm that the bus transit system (TransJakarta) have massively helped mobility amongst the populace. With a flat fare of 2 cents you can get from one end of the city to the other; it's an amazing system.
Costco has it by the gallon in the us. Also every single grocery store, including tiny stores like Aldi. Also Target and Walmart carry them, them being evoo, extra light tasting, and regular.

I don't know where you live, bit I've lived in many countries and on remote islands and olive oil is ubiquitous.
I think "durable" here means "can be read without physically damaging the media".
> Some developers absolutely do not like the role because of the regular interruptions, I get it, but some people are more than happy to help be a go-to.

I would happy to do it if management acknowledges that managing people as a senior dev will take time away from doing actual coding work.

But somehow, they think you can manage to pull off doing deep coding work and managing people at the same time. This refusal to adjust expectations is just baffling to me.
That's ridiculous; I know many professional musicians who have a decent life.

This guy had a hard time of it the same way any kind of regular schmuck might if he had delusions of grandeur. Yes, life ain't fair: you generally won't excel the rich kids who went to Yale unless you have some crazy hustle. That's just how life is.

> “Organic” had several clear meanings and has not lost any, however it has gained another clear meaning and people who use it don’t seem to see a problem.

Well putting aside the fact that the new meaning is anything but clear, this is just demonstrably untrue. There’s no such thing as an inorganic carrot, but you can not describe a carrot as being organic unless it is certified as such by the USDA (or whatever other certifying body), according to their unique criteria that have no relation at all to the carrots organicness.

> Can you show that consumers are unduly prejudiced by the current system?

Try googling a simple definition of “organic”. Google will tell you “produced or involving production without the use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or other artificial chemicals.” Everything about that definition is false according to any organic certification program (regardless of what you think an “artificial chemical” is...)
Brazilian here.

The Amazon Climate is wet and hot all year round. It rains more in Amazon Forest during the dry season of than in the wet season in most of the country. By the way, Brazil does have dry biomes, such Cerrado and Caatinga, where natural fires are common.

Most people are not aware the Amazon soil is very poor nutrition-wise. The trees depend on the decomposed organic material, the hot and wet climate is perfect to convert fallen leaves into hummus. Because of this, there's isn't much wild life in the forest at ground-level. It isn't a coincident that the pictures from the Amazon is usually from above.

Therefore, the biggest concern with the deforestation is actually the dim balance that keep the forest alive. If it goes beyond a certain point, it will be impossible to revert the end of the forest.

There is a lot of fantasy about the Amazon Forest, likely because it is a vast (almost the size of Continental USA) unexplored land. But from a biodiversity point of view, more efforts should be direct to other richer Brazilian biomes such the Atlantic Forest or Mato de Cocais.

As a curiosity. The country is named after a tree! The Pau Brasil is a tree that was used to make red dye during the Renaissance. It was explored by the portugues almost to extinction. It still endangered despite the efforts to reforest.
Huh, it looks like that only works on 1-byte values? That’s an interesting choice.
I would start looking at MLIR:

https://github.com/tensorflow/mlir

This is a new compiler framework that attempts to bake machine learning computation into the compiler stack. It is spearheaded by Chris Lattner who started LLVM.

I think this project is both early in it's development phase and has a good chance at turning into important compiler infrastructure.

(I worked in compilers at NVIDIA for a few years)
Manifestation Magic
Olive oil is healthy, good to cook with, and not too strongly flavoured. Depending on where you are, it's also generally fairly cheap. As a general purpose cooking oil, it's a solid choice, and EVOO is not a particularly good replacement.

It's like asking why you'd want a screwdriver when you already have a really nice hammer; they're different tools for different purposes.
