Brilliant. Reminded me of our machineroom where we planned to deploy a cray-1 to use the space vacated by an IBM 3300 (The cray was a freebie from Boeing, a mandatory investment in R&D offsetting a huge defence contract)

Unbeknownst to us, the building wasn't adequately earthed and we had a 48v ground potential across data frames either end of the building which must have existed day #1 from the 1960s, but with limited cabling and inter machineroom comms never been noticed. Amongst other remediation we had to bury a huge ground plane spike in the garden and tie the all the raised floor tiles into a functional groundplane with wire to fix things.

The keyboard sends a scancode, and something, either the text input of the OS, or the app themselves, translates that to an ö. Second, it is possible that the system just does not load the correct keyboard layout and defaults to US, so you loose your familiar keyboard layout precisely when you already have other problems.
Static typing isn't bad, but it's only as good as the type system is strong and detailed. Haskell's QuickCheck doesn't understand biases or infinite-typed values. The Hypothesis strategy of Strategies (the design pattern) is far more useful for producing serious test suites, as less time has to be spent fretting about which invariants can be hoisted to the type system.

I agree. Memory safety is a problem solved 60 years ago and adopted by most mainstream languages, or rather most languages period. Rust doesn't solve memory safety, it just lets you do it in a more performant way.

But the compiler does quite a bit more than just allow for performant memory safety. It enforces rules around mutability and handling errors which are usually only seen in functional languages.

None of these things are special about Rust. The special thing is that Rust can do these things with less computer resources while asking more of the programmer.

And this is a general truth. Type systems add friction and force programmers to deal with details from the very beginning. In the long term this might often be a good thing, but it certainly isn't ergonomic.

I do not know how usable Multiplayer is. I sometimes had that if i had one browser window open and opened another that i had two sessions in Figma, which was slightly annoying. But for me the dealbreaker with Figma as a tool is it sometimes has issues with exporting content to png. Meaning I had to import it in GIMP before re-exporting it. The idea is really neat, but it needs some work before I can really recommend it over more traditional tools.

I appreciate that you are more well versed in your field than I am. That doesn't mean that you're not making a misstep here. I've known some PhDs and while they often have good points to make in their fields I've also seen some of them eat crow more than once. We're all human.

> But this isnʼt what you were talking about here, which is the hypothetical existence of a biological mechanism enacting differential, directional selection.

It should be noted that I never said directional -- I actually made it explicitly clear in my first post that I was not arguing for a direction, only for modified rates of change: "Note that I haven't suggested that a directional bias exists, just a set of mechanisms for changing variability of different traits." So, I think this is what I've been talking about from the beginning. Perhaps it's due to my lack of familiarity with domain specific language, but I'm not sure that you're understanding what I've been arguing for. Please don't get bogged down in the specifics of this example (it's the pointing finger, not the moon), but I'm not suggesting that cheetahs evolved a tendency to evolve faster running, I'm suggesting that they might have had a period of evolution where a variety of genes related to running were more likely to change in both beneficial and non-beneficial ways, but because faster running was such a beneficial trait it actually made sense for some portion of the population to have offspring who were more likely to have both beneficial and harmful changes happen over the relevant sections of genetic code. In times of less rapid environmental/adversarial change, where stagnation is good enough and the reward for beneficial deviation is more outweighed by the risk of harmful deviation, the rate of change can be toggled back down (again through normal evolution).

1) Do we agree that random mutations of the germline can result in differing rates of change across subsets of the genome?

2) Do we agree that this can affect the viability of offspring?

3) If yes to both of the above, is any component missing for evolution to select for different rates of variability in different subsets of the genome?
I would love to have an example of what exactly he is writing about. I spend most my time at the moment to rewrite some code from JS to Rust and still fight with invariants. I would like to know how to achieve the 100% safety. I know that I get most of the null pointer exception etc handled with Option and Result structs. But if you need to deal with string values etc the compiler can’t really help out when the value is not the one you’re expecting. And I also moved most of these to enums.
Defining structures is one of the worst parts of Ghidra for me! But maybe I'm missing something.

- When I first tried Ghidra I couldn't set the size of a struct by editing the size field, so I had to go through an awkward process of creating an undefined byte and then duplicating it. However, that seems to have been fixed, so it's now better than IDA (where I always have to create a dummy field and move it to the end)...

- The structure editor displays offsets and sizes as decimal by default (!?); there is a menu option to display as hex but it's per-structure and not persistent. ...Oh, I looked in Tool Options and I guess you can change the default there. That's nice to learn. But that's dumb UI design; it should just remember whether you clicked the menu option, and the default should be hex anyway.

- Changes in the structure editor window don't take effect until you press the little save button, which doesn't even have a key binding by default. If you forget to save, and then you modify the same structure from elsewhere (e.g. from rename/retype field in the decompiler), the structure editor 'helpfully' asks you whether to keep its version (in which case you lose the change you just made) or discard edits and reload (in which case you lose the changes you had forgotten to save).

- Can't jump to a specific offset in a structure. Well, you can sort of do it using the search field that does a textual search across all columns, since offset is one of the columns. But then you can type 0x3e and potentially be taken to 0x3e0 because that starts with "0x3e". Also, unlike a true "jump to offset", you can't enter the offset in a different form, like decimal instead of hex, or a mathematical expression (0x10+0x20).

- Can't jump from a field reference in the decompiler to the corresponding field in the structure editor. There is a way to open the struct in the structure editor (without jumping to the field), but even that requires a right click.

- If you have a structure consisting mostly of undefined bytes (e.g. I know there are fields at offset 0x50 and 0x100 but don't know anything else about the struct), the fields list shows each undefined byte as its own row, making it hard to see what actually matters – the defined fields. However, IDA has the same problem.

- The type list view is awkward. Why do I have to right click and go through a submenu just to create a new structure?

- It's annoying that the structure editor is a pop-up window rather than being integrated into the main window.

And some of my other Ghidra complaints are more generally related to structures:

- Can't mark struct field references in the disassembly, as far as I can tell, only in the decompiler.

- Searching for references to struct fields requires waiting for Ghidra to re-decompile every function that references the field (though it does seem to have some smarts to determine which functions to look at).

- Struct constants in the listing view are handled awkwardly. (Also awkward in IDA though.)
It does make sense, considering:

1) "30 years ago" is not some ancient time (as some people in the 20s might think). There are tons of people impacted from then, and tons of children and relatives of said people.

2) The "30 years ago" thing didn't stop "30 years ago". 30 years ago was just when it broke out...

This has absolutely been the trend in India. Majority of male names from my generation and my parents' generation end in consonants, and ending with a vowel was indicative of a feminine name.

So I doubt Indian immigration at least impacted this trend in the direction suggested.

"they do have a lot of production issues" means they still sell every single processor they make.

New computers are about 80% Intel and 20% AMD. Until this is reversed Intel will still be the kings.

I remember fondly the age of Athlon 64 processors. AMD was a winner. On paper. Intel still beat them in the long run.

And I say this as an AMD fanboy.

Have you checked with your dentist to see whether your jaw joints (where your jaw meets your skull under your ear lobe) are equally strong?

My dentist found that one side wasn't working as well as the other and made me a custom splint (a mouthguard I wear at night) which trains the weaker side to work properly. It looks like the one on the right in this picture [0]. Since then, all of the pains on that side of my neck and upper back have disappeared.

The way you've described your pain seems similar to what I was experiencing, so maybe this information gives you something to go on.

One caveat though: my dentist said that the mouthguard approach doesn't work for everyone (about 30% of people get a result similar to mine) as it relies on fooling your brain in your sleep to train one jaw muscle to be stronger than the other.

I'd support this but moneyed interests would not. Advertisers wouldn't have an excuse to build the digital panopticon anymore, and a lot of the effort to build it would be wasted. That'd be too much justice for this world.
I've been using this a lot recently in an electron app I'm making. Because it's electron I know the target browser and so don't really have to care about compatibility, and man the ignorance is bliss. This value makes grid layouts a million times easier since you can effectively flatten (for styling purposes) even a very deeply nested tree of elements, without ever touching the DOM.

Widespread support for this value can't come soon enough!

You trust corporations all the time to make products, construct buildings, etc. to not kill you when used more or less correctly in accordance with what most people would consider common sense because said companies know they will be sued, fined, etc. if they don’t make safe things.

> Motor vehicle related deaths don't even rate in the top 20 causes of death.

According to [1] in the US road traffic accidents are the 17th-most-common cause of death across all age ranges.

But among 15-24 year olds? Number 1 cause of death. In fact you have to reach age 45 before road traffic accidents are even outside the top five.

If you really want to ramp up the rhetoric, compare road deaths to mass shootings and September 11th. Where's the trillion-dollar invasion of Detroit to overthrow the Drivetrain Of Evil?

The OP is simply stating the base case: cars without drivers shouldn't be safer than cars with drivers. The industry claims that their cars are safer without drivers because AI. The industry must provide the evidence for its very strong claim.

The fact that a majority of the public think it's the opposite way around, that skeptical opinions about self-driving cars must provide evidence, is the industry's succes- the triumph of marketing over reason.

Of course the industry has no such data. Research has shown that this data would take many decades to obtain:

Batteries have to be maintained and that would be a very counter productive use of a lot of money.

A better solution is to require cell phone manufactures with over one million installed units in a given region to include an AM radio feature, even if it only enables when there is no cell service for a while. I know that some AM stations were taken out along with cell towers, but AM signals travel far and there is no doubt that many with an AM receiver in those areas could at least receive a broadcast from out of the area, especially if the local stations are not broadcasting interference. For extra credit, include auto Morse code detection (for even longer range broadcasts and also hearing impaired).
I see a lot of talk about how society will not accept machines that might make mistakes, but I don't think society has actually had a chance to make its opinions known yet.

I expect you will find the same worries about them too if you trawl the newspaper archives.

My takeaway from the article is these last senior resources have earned the right to work on longer term projects. This is vital for organizations to both innovate and clean up technical debt.
I've wondered about that on several sites.

So it's true that it still requires:

a) a user who should have the URL give it to them

or

b) person 1 guessed the URL, like a password since it's usually a long url with a GUID of some type.

But is that acceptable for some reason? Easier development?

Because otherwise you need to:

a) issue one time/short lived token for accessing an image on S3 for instance, for all the images that will be shown on a
page when a page loads for an authenticated user.

or

b) proxy the image requests by making an api endpoint for image names, authenticate those requests, fetch the image from a place only the server has access to and stream the image data back.

Don't worry it sucks as a user as well. Curiosity pushed me to use Google SSO to circumvent their crap one time, and they allowed themselves to subsequently spam my inbox with a flurry of emails. I proceeded to click the "unsubscribe" link in one of them, but to my surprise the spam kept coming. Turns out they have more than a dozen mailing settings and you have to painfully disable each one of them individually. Of course the simpler option is to mark all emails from pinterest.com as spam in the email client.

Especially as a site that specializes in hosting nearly exclusively non-original content, it's so ethically wrong for them to use such tactics.

Pinterest, Quora, Instagram, I never understood why people keep using these clearly unethical websites. Stop using them and other better alternatives will pop out, it's not like you depend on them like you depend on grocery shops or clothing stores. Voting with your attention is easy and cheap.
