I think military spending is a fair comparison topic even if not directly addressing your point, it's often argued that it's military/space progress that trickles down into improvements for 'the rest of us', though I have my doubts about that nonetheless it provides an incentive beyond the obvious subject being addressed. I take issue with 'fantasy projects', that's what science is, to distill fact from fantasy, it the fantasy in the first instance that inspires the research that provides the answer, if you're essentially saying that we have gathered enough contrary evidence and should now abandon the search and focus on home, well, I can certainly see that perspective and have felt that way at times, but to argue that because we don't know something, we should not waste money finding out the details, well, I think the Wright brothers efforts would have been dismissed as fantasy at the time, glad it did not dissuade them.
Tracking isn't a problem if you're just making one single purchase on the dark web (Tor browser etc ...). Find a vendor with high ratings, order a small amount.

Your only worry is LE but since acid is a tiny piece of paper the chance of that getting caught in the mail is negligible. Use a test kit to verify it's actual lsd.
Right. They may be realistic about their circumstances. But they're not realistic about their ability to transform them.
> I have reservations about the explanation that a consistent positive outcome can be chalked up to pure luck.

It's not even necessarily much luck: if the per-day probability of a violent attack while hitchhiking in Mexico were 1 in 50, which would still be extremely dangerous, it would only be slightly better than average results to go a month straight without an attack.

> If you are accessing the content of an array, many languages will add “bound checking”: before accessing the array value, there will be a hidden check to see whether the index is valid. If the index is not valid, then an error is generated, otherwise the code proceeds normally. Bound checks are predictable since all accesses should (normally) be valid. Consequently, most processors should be able to predict the outcome nearly perfectly.

Warning! This is just a stone's throw from the kind of thing that got us Spectre, so keep in mind this sort of optimization can occasionally come back to bite you…

> The rest is chatting and socializing. I like it.

The problem I have with this is that I don't really get to choose who I can chat and socialize with -- I like my work colleagues, but they're not my main social circle and never will be because I find it unhealthy if your colleagues are your core friends since if you ever want or need to leave (or get fired), it makes it all the more painful and makes an already stressful situation even more stressful. I'm a firm believer that you should enjoy the company of the people you work with, but that you should have a strong social life outside of work too so that you don't feel socially trapped in that job.

Adding a pointer and an index yield a pointer no matter which side the pointer is, i.e operator+ is commutative. It would be extremely surprising if switching sides of the sum would implicitly convert an index to a pointer.

You could argue that operator[] should not allow a non pointer on the LHS, and you would probably right, but as it stands now, it is just syntactic sugar for operator+ and just dereferencing the while expression.
The Nobel Peace Prize was part of Alfred Nobel's original will. So how is it an anachronism? Then I agree that the Norwegian Nobel committee hasn't shown particularly good judgement when chosing the winners lately.
Article begins with stating it is bad to have white christian males in a group and the article concludes in the end it is better to have immigrants. Of course it is a praise to migration. Don't be naive.

And your comparison doesn't even make sense, I'm not commenting on every article at the Economist, just this one.
In POSIX, a text file is a file consisting of zero or more lines. A line is a sequence of non-null characters, shorter than a system defined maximum and terminated by a line feed character.

So a file that completely matches the string "one two\nthree" is by POSIX standards not a text file. Of course, wc doesn't necessarily operate on text files so you could interpret the result as a "complete POSIX line count".
It's definitely a feigned retreat in English yeah. What made the Mongols so unreasonably good at it was that no one was better than them on a horse or with a bow (i.e. they could attack from range while retreating; the introduction of guns levelled the playing field because they required much less strength and skill to use). They could pull the feigned retreat off in a way that resulted in few if any casualties, since even a feigned retreat has a high level of danger associated with it (which is what makes it so tough to pull off).

Thanks for doing the digging up on all the names :) It really is interesting how the tactic has been used and adapted over time and place, and how the names necessarily would be different depending on who you ask. I guess calling it any of the above is totally valid XD

Those are two different questions.

In Germany, I have to tell the state where I live and every time I move, I have to tell them again. I can't open a bank account, get health insurance, rent a proper place, I can't do anything, till the local council can be bothered staffing the registration office enough to see me. I certainly live at a certain place, but it's as if I'm staying at that address on holiday.

In Australia, I don't have to register with the state. If I move house, I have enough things on my mind. If a person is born, died, gets married or (sometimes) changes their name in Australia, someone has to report that fact to the government. But a person is a person, or dead, or married, or has a different name while they're waiting for the bureaucracy to do its thing.

In both cases, children have to go to school. Even in the absence of any registration or reporting, there's still an obligation. So what does the registration actually achieve?

The government has the power and ability to find out where a person lives. Why compel me to do something you can make obnoxiously difficult? - and which serves no apparent purpose?
I don't have perfect pitch so I can speak by experience, but there is this video on youtube where the parent of a kid with perfect pitch detunes the keyboard without telling him, and then asks him to identify pitches.

The kid really doesn't care, he notices that the notes are detuned but is not a problem to him, at some point he says that the note he is hearing is a mix between two notes and he is ok with that

Sorry for not linking the actual video, but I can't remember which one is, is the channel of Rick Beato if you want to try to find it

Keep in mind "no hierarchies" in these cultural studies does not mean that there are no authority figures or that there aren't any leaders. In many situation it is more practical to have one decision maker rather than always deferring to a democratic discussion.

But the key difference is that the authority granted to these leaders is conditional and temporary. If the group loses their faith in the leader or the leader is no longer absolutely necessary, they can fall back to the democratic process again.

Likewise in federal communal structures an individual commune or neighborhood can always object and, if its members don't feel adequately represented, secede without threats of violence.

We recognise this level of autonomy in super-national structures like the European Union (hence the discussions around "Brexit" and such), yet we seem to treat them as unthinkable within a nation and any mention of autonomy at the communal level is easily seen as absurd. This is because nationhood has become our widespread cultural norm to the point we can rarely even entertain the notion of an alternative or a time before or after nation states.

There is a system called Paym which lets you send money to (the bank account associated with) a phone number, but you have to sign up for it explicitly to associate your phone number with your account, and I personally have never used it nor heard of anyone I know using it.

Yes! It is called "pide". Wikipedia relates it to the pita - but I would describe it closer to as pizza as well.

This is either lahmadjun or pide. They are close, but don't seem to have common origins, just independent discoveries. Same as flatbreads. And putting some topping on one is hardly a world shattering idea.

Sort of. We already have an interpreter (CTFE!), it's just not up to the task for what I want to do with it.
I am not a computer engineer and I always wondered:

What if we had a modern, pipelined CPU architecture with no branch predictor, which instead unconditionally executed the X instructions immediately following every branch before (possibly) proceeding with the branch's target instruction?

Would compilers and programmers be able to find most of the efficiencies that we currently rely on the branch predictor to find? What would be the common cases where it would be hard to do that?

How much circuitry would we save by leaving out the predictor? Enough to allow a measurable speedup in the CPU clock speed?

Surely you are as capable of determining that as we are.

Some of them are. Some are not, eg, they are links to newspaper articles and government publications.

But the question was "Can you post something to back up your claims from a well respected climate scientist?" That means "at least one", not "all".

walleeee's links includes claims from well-respected climate scientists. Eg, the first author of the Nature paper is https://patricktbrown.org/about/ and the first author of the PNAS paper is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Will_Steffen .

So, I'll ask again: "Can you post something to back up your claims from a well respected climate scientist?"
Nothing in that contradicts what i wrote, it supports it.
This is not black and white. Often we are optimist and we ignore the suffering of the ones closest to us because we simply don't believe they are suffering.
Maybe the problem is you were trying to invalidate their e tire management worldview with those studies. Instead, a more effective strategy might have been convincing management that while their methods were generally fine, for your specific case you might buck the trend. At least, that's how I've had luck with this problem. And also reassuring(and proving through my actions) that they wouldn't need to devote special time just to managing me vs managing the horde.

> Every language has their esoteric quirks.

But most let you avoid them in favor of concepts manageable by an average middle schooler.
that has nothing to do with programing language, but with tools/libraries.

Haskell is one of the simplest programming languages, but judging it by that statement is judging java for spring2 AbstractSingletonProxyFactory bean, ruby for all of rails monkey patching and magic, etc.
>A depressed, pessimistic person is judging the world very accurately.

Absolutely not. I've dealt with a lot of pessimistic, depressed people--I've been clinically depressed, as well, in the past--, and we can be the most closed-minded, whiny, oblivious people out there. I think that's exactly how depression actually works: one is enslaved, kept away from experiencing the world as it is, by their extraordinarily reduced perspective, which is seemingly unescapable to the depressed individual.

I don't think it's reasonable to conflate negativity--which leads to bad outcomes--with a realistic mindset--which takes into account potential bad outcomes. I find the opposite to be true, in my experience: the more positive and proactive a person is, the stronger they can become--and not crushed by a negative turn of events.
That‘s an interesting position. I have recently watched an interview with Yuval Noah Harari and Steven Pinker where they talked about the possibility and danger of algorithms becoming better at understanding us than we do ourselves. It‘s a real danger as the bar to trick humans into believing and doing things is incredibly low.

As an example take a magician who can trick you into believing things which are not true simply by being clever about how certain things are framed. Another example are experimental set ups in which false memories were reliably induced (just google it).

I am not taking a strong position in the case of twitter here, but I want to highlight that your premise: „I don‘t need someone to protect me from its content“, might be a little bit naive or overconfident in your own ability to „see the truth“. We are limited in what we can make sense of and we are easily manipulable. Mindfulness, self-awareness and self-reflection might be able to raise the bar a little bit but in the end, I wouldn‘t even trust too much in that. I am still often enough fooled by a magic trick even when I KNOW how the trick works.

>Old school Unix people have been gatekeeping Unix since the 90s at least.

Well not all of us, but being a sysadmin excited about Unix/Linux on commodity hardware didn't mean much if your boss thought the OS, the hardware or both weren't ready for production workloads.

I showed my boss two floppy Slackware and he dismissed it as not relevant. Years later we were having the same arguments about Solaris on Intel which weren't helped by Sun's on again off again Intel support. My point is sometimes it was the IT management gatekeeping.

That would be a great feature if you could tell gmail what +something suffixes you've used and it blocked all mail to other suffixes and the address without the suffix. As it is, spammers can just strip off the +something part, or change it to +somethingelse, to cover their tracks. I know this is gmail specific - for other providers they'd have to keep +something suffix in case it really goes to a different inbox - but gmail is so big that spammers can afford to make a special case for them.
Huh, isn't that only the case for Android App Bundles?
Strange, but unsurprising after seeing the examples, IMO. Knowing that the memory spike in Haskell is due to the strict form of foldl (as indicated by the tick) only being strict up to "weak head normal form" seems quite a bit more esoteric to me.

But maybe I am biased due to learning more about how computer implementations fundamentally operate (in which case the only surprising thing about a[b] == b[a] is that the C standard allows it) than FP theory and how that abstraction can be baked down into something that the computer can actually execute efficiently.

This is a good point, because of the dynamic nature of python, the incompatibility is not always visible at compile time (parse type?), but can happen at run time and only rarely.

I liked your survey ;) It would be great if you could disclose (in a few days or so) how many visitors took part in it compared to how many people your site visited!

I find your concept a little bit messy though (while your website design is really clean, I love it!).
I think it's because you described so many ideas without a lot of technical explanations. Your scenarios are helpful, but they are also quite superficial - I don't see exactly how your solution might be of help there. I also had difficulties extrapolating how your solution might work technically from you example document.

I think you need a very robust and clear implementation for it to be really useful!

Btw, I spent some significant time on a typed data description language meant to be an alternative to JSON, also with extensive schema support. I had a vision very similar to yours, but I failed to implement it. It just turned out to be too hard to do it so that its usage is always frictionless.

Just a couple of days ago, however, I started to port some of my ideas to a very slim JSON-Schema alternative. As a key difference to your idea, I don't want to include turing complete validators into the schema but rather use globally unique type names so that these validators can be implemented somewhere else in arbitrary programming languages. It also allows for automatic UI generation.

So if Wireguard becomes a proper tax exempt organisation it would be ok.

If you want donations but aren't tax exempt there is basically no way to do it. However you could easily work around it by offering something trivial like a badge (games can use IAP to purchase trivial things like hats). The downside is that Google take their 30% cut.

Yes I think you're right about the pork thing.

I don't know where you're based, chop suey isnt really a Chinese restaurant staple. Growing up I remember a takeaway called Thai Garden advertised it, but I always associated with American films.

For takeaways the format was overwhelmingly headings with the meat, then items with different veg. Eg X with cashew nuts, X with water chestnuts, X with oyster sauce. Then an Egg fried rice section, then a Chow Mein section.

But that could be a regional thing within the UK.
