You and I both like Rust. Concrete performance is one key reason why I choose to use Rust for various things, and all Lisps I know of are just generally slower and use more resources; I’m not aware of any Lisp attempting to address this problem, and from what I do understand of Lisps (though I’ve never seriously coded in one) they seem at least somewhat incompatible with such performance. I’m interested in whether you have any remarks on this apparent conflict of goals.

(I’d love to be credibly told I’m completely wrong, because syntax aside, which I could get used to eventually, I rather like the model of Lisps and some of the features that supports.)
Strongly authoritarian regimes can (and already do) easily give up a lot of the well being and livelihood of their citizens. It's not even remotely close to a symmetric dependency, market forces simply don't apply the same way to China as they apply to Apple or to the US in general. Which is another reason why getting into an already pointless trade war is such a bad idea.
The inverse chirp z-transform in that second paper is described as follows:

Let us now focus on the computation of the inverse chirp transform. The
idea is to use the Newton basis for intermediate computations: first perform
a Newton interpolation, then perform a conversion from the Newton basis to
the monomial basis. Both steps have complexities M(n) + O(n), which gives
the estimate of 2M(n) + O(n)

The function M(n)

denotes the cost of multiplying univariate polynomials of degree less
than n. Using FFT-based multiplication algorithms, M(n) can be taken in
O(n log(n) log(log(n)))

So they did not reach O(n log n).
Hey! We faced a similar issue. We wanted to use Headless chrome in Cloud Functions, but with python, not go.

In the end, we ended up going with Cloud Run instead. It allows you to use an arbitrary docker image, so you can just bundle chrome in there.

One interesting tidbit that this article doesn’t mention is that fiber orientation of cartilage is fundamental to the functionality of different cartilaginous tissues. It’s similar to how fiber orientation in carbon fiber parts will be adjusted to provide strength and durability in specific directions. Articular cartilages likely is somewhat more evenly oriented, but tendons are highly aligned to length and meniscus aligned in a hoop like direction. New or repaired cartilage in different tissues need exercise and other forms of mechanical agitation to align properly. Even if we could repair all cartilage readily we’d still need lots of physical therapy and to regrow damaged tissue at a slow pace. So no miracle sir on the couch cures even if this works.

On another the meniscus (and vertebrae discs?) loose blood flow after mid-30 or thereabouts and might make effective delivery or healing more difficult. It’ll be interesting to see what happens in the next decade or two!

“Nimrod” is a funny case. In the Bible, Nimrod is a king and a mighty hunter. In Looney Toons, Elmer Fudd, a decidedly not-mighty hunter, is sarcastically dubbed “Nimrod”, and so the connotation is reversed for those of us who are first exposed to the name as a sarcastic jibe from Bugs Bunny rather than the name of a Biblical figure.

Reads like relatively random sentences fearmongering about broad subjects like "1 million cyberattacks", government-backed attacks and 5G security. The author's short bio attributes them with being CEO of some surveillance tech solution so this might be predictable but I don't see what this article is trying to say. 1M "attacks" on networks the size of Huawei without any technical definition is certainly neither newsworthy, nor particularly meaningful.
E(nd to end)ncryption is off by default, that's not an opinion. Gmail (afaik) doesn't have that at all, so saying it's off in Gmail by default is weird. It's not the same thing. (It's like saying a car's radio is off by default versus a bicycle's (non-existent) radio.)

Anyway, I guess that's just semantics. We both understand what is the case, whether you like calling it a default setting or "just not encrypted". I do fully agree that Telegram is shady because it's just a money sink, and that WhatsApp had a great profit model (pre-Facebook of course). I did the math once (though that was just messages, not media) and a euro a year (times a few hundred million users, back then) was plenty to support a chat system with only a few developers as employees. If Telegram would adopt the same profit model, that would be great.

I think you're unable to answer those questions as the language does not seem to aim to try to offer any answer to those questions. Bel seems to be an experiment, and maybe once the "specification" phase has been done, some of those questions could be answered.

Here is the relevant parts from the language document:

> Bel is an attempt to answer the question: what happens if, instead of switching from the formal to the implementation phase as soon as possible, you try to delay that switch for as long as possible? If you keep using the axiomatic approach till you have something close to a complete programming language, what axioms do you need, and what does the resulting language look like?

> I want to be clear about what Bel is and isn't. Although it has a lot more features than McCarthy's 1960 Lisp, it's still only the product of the formal phase. This is not a language you can use to program computers, just as the Lisp in the 1960 paper wasn't. Mainly because, like McCarthy's Lisp, it is not at all concerned with efficiency. When I define append in Bel, I'm saying what append means, not trying to provide an efficient implementation of it.

No, because there are other factors mixed in, such as requiring a minimum number of upvotes by contributors not recognised as being in a voting ring, and beating the "gravity" factor. There are also penalties applied for certain types of posts and sources, boosts applied for certain types of posts, and penalties for some conditions. For example, when a post hits 40 posts, if the number of comments exceeds the number of points, a "probable flame war" penalty is applied.

So it's not the case that posts from the new page "get mixed in" to the Front Page, they get there on merit based on getting enough votes in a short enough time. To say they get "mixed in" implies that they are simply plucked from the "Newest" page and put on the Front Page regardless of votes. And that's not the case.

Usually.

> lack of a proper manual QA team at Apple

Yeah, I think so.

Apple's apps have always been terrible, and it seems weird because their Mac OS (though of course buggy in absolute terms) has, for almost 20 years, far outshined any other desktop computing OS of similar complexity (meaning, basically, Windows and Ubuntu and equivalent Linux-plus-all-basic-apps type distros).

I think this is a side effect of their silo culture. App teams are tiny, often one person, and they work in permanent stealth mode. Then they finally release a developer preview, which includes the core OS plus like a hundred app releases.

Suddenly, they have thousands of beta testers: Mac developers paying Apple for the privilege. I've been one for the past 20 years or so. But we don't have time to file bugs (especially through their shitty, rude Radar system, although it's recently finally gotten... um, marginally less shitty). We spend our bug-filing time on the OS deficiencies that are fucking up our own applications.

So the OS itself gets stress tested by thousands of developers, whereas none of us really gives a shit about the app collection that will ship alongside the OS.

E.g., relevant to this issue: thousands and thousands of developers install every OS release and beat on it, but almost none of us would expose our actual email accounts to some developer preview release of Mail.app. We'd just use a different machine, or use webmail for a while while working with the new OS.

So the apps themselves actually get released with pretty minimal real user testing.

> Violate an arbitrary rule in crypto and... oh wait, crypto doesn't have rules and doesn't judge your morality. (Neither does cash or gold, so be careful about using this as an argument against it.)

The argument goes through just the same? Cash, gold, cryptocurrencies and bearer bonds are all popular with criminals and crazies.
gonna take a wild guess at this coz yeah it's a good question, but basically my guess is if there's a security problem the community, depending on the OS or distro, probably puts that out in the open, then the community fixes it. say there is a 'driver problem' with xyz chipset, same deal, enough folks bring attention to it through the community someone with too much coffee in them probably starts fixing it then releases it for review etc. if you look at say some of the builds from Arch Linux User Repository or "AUR" feedback on their site often brings attention to the maintainer, but again it all depends on who all is maintaining xyz MAKEPKG where it pulls from say github, who is behind xyz software say at github. my own opinion on this is well just my own, and yeah as they say 'could be wrong' but one scenario that i think has hurt companies configd like microsoft is the simple fact their business model put them in a bad position to not use the biggest resource they actually had: their customers. but remember that company came up in a time where the average joe on the street wasn't a geek, didn't have the world wide web in his/her pocket. today, that's not the case, the kid down the street might find a 'hole' or 'problem' with say linux and report it to whoever runs the distro he or she was goofing with. the other thing is it's almost impossible to ask any one single company, a small group of programmers hired by xyz company to find stuff wrong with software that goes around the world. what i'm getting at is for example the way you may look at, use, or implement your distro even if we both were on the same distro could be completely different than the way i use it. the other problem is again the business model, when you find a problem with linux well no stock prices go down, meaning a 'company' doesn't lose money, if anything it adds value to the release of the software. i'm not a guru and one of the reasons i love linux is because well, i'm not a guru. if i have a problem or fix something till i break it, either google, irc or any number of the forums online, social media, i got a 'tech' usually a message away. all the help i've had over the years with linux, even if i won the lottery no way i'd be able to pay everyone back with all the help they gave to me for free. i'm not anti microsoft or anti proprietary software or even anti make money but yeah at times sometimes the business models need changed for a company so their products can keep up with their customers. windows 98 second edition and windows 2000 plus windows 7 was some good software, lots of talented folks at microsoft.

You don't compete with cats for resources, and you interact with them entirely on your terms. Once an animal enters your life without asking, and reduces the resources available to you, they become 'vermin', and people will do extraordinarily cruel things to them without feeling the slightest pang of guilt on the basis of that same 'superiority' which you feel towards cats.

A run on the currency just becomes a run on the underlying currencies, which, as a basket of global currencies, cannot all be run at once since each one is inherently relative to the others.

Besides, he already has the official world record anyway. This was an experiment to see if it was possible to shave a couple dozen seconds off the marathon time of the greatest marathon runner of all time. Doing it again in race conditions—whether it’s by Kipchoge or another runner—will be a historic milestone but there is greater confidence that it will happen now.

Besides, I know you can’t control for adrenaline and elation, but the fact that he picked up 10 seconds of pace at the end—when he was running only 10 seconds shy of 2 hours for the whole marathon—and then spent a good half hour running around and celebrating after he crossed the finish line might be a hint that we haven’t even found the real limits yet.

Don't let the name "macro" fool you, Macros in Lisp is completely different than the macros you do in other languages.

In other languages, you're basically just outputting source code.

In Lisp, since the source code is actually the program, you can program the program.
