Because running git blame on code breaks the flow. Because git blame may give you wrong author and date (say someone edited the code around the note, changing its indentation level; EDIT: or rebased it, as 'daemin says). Because git blame is not a grep-friendly solution. Because code sometimes lives longer than version control systems (I've worked with codebases older than git). Because very often code lives longer than the repo it originated in, so you can easily lose history (many new projects get started by copy-pasting pieces of a previous project).
It's mostly a fallacy that a demanded product becomes "developed". Maybe a game that gains cult status and therefore a long tail end of life. But popular web services are in constant churn and in that space it's valid to trade hardware for programmer productivity.
You are missing the point.

The point is this: we do not have a cure for this dieases now.

Therefore, we do not know where to look at all.

Therefore the best approach is to look at everything possible, since we obviously have no idea where to look.

If we knew where to look, we would have atleast a partial cure.

But no cure works now, none.
> human trash

> Being kinder to garbage

See, that's where we probably don't think the same way. I consider few people "human trash". Drug addicts I don't count as "human trash", they're just victims of an addiction and in need of help.

People who are not drug addicts and are just plain evil, those would be "human trash" in my eyes (think Mengele).

The words we choose to frame a situation are important. Your mindset comes from a very aggressive mindset, at least that's how it seems to me.

> Memory and thread safety properties can be achieved in C++ by operating at a higher level than C with mature, well-debugged, well-optimized libraries. No pointers means no pointer errors.

Eh, not to the extent that Rust does. It’s still reasonably easy to get use-after-frees by using a value that has been moved or destroyed.

> Integer overflows are equally possible in Rust and C++. Both offer debug build modes that can watch for those.

In Rust the behavior is defined regardless of signedness.

Google has the resources and brains available to solve world hunger, so they probably could do that.

Unfortunately all those people who work there would rather spend their time and effort thinking of new ways to get people to see ads.

I don't see that as very positive for Google.
Actually, Python is compiled to its bytecode and then interpreted by the Python VM, which is also how Java works. Python is slow because the lack of funds and people's focus, just take look at how fast JavaScript(V8) is nowadays.
Although German language is full of great words, the expressions from the post exist in other languages, even in my native tongue Turkish, which belongs to a completely different language family.

However in Germany these expressions are regularly used on TV,press and literature. They have become and are powerful building blocks of a German speakers thoughts, giving them an advantage to think better.

The main reason I switched to Firefox was an extension where I can see all of my tabs on a sidebar. I don't think it's possible with Chrome until they introduce sidebar pane.

Loyal firefox user here. Never touched chrome unless I had to.

The australis days were rough, but since quantum it's been feeling fast. It doesn't even feel obviously slower than chrome anymore.
if someone has more details: I remember years ago that when I was digging FF source code I saw it was using chromium source code (not everywhere but for the CSS engine and extensions i think),that was the time servo was in consideration, is it still the case? I personally dont mind that I use both chromium + FF with some firewall rules but it always gave me impression that while FF using chromium source it does an advertise like completely different, isolated secure platform. Here is quick search just on "chrome" keyword on source code repo. https://github.com/mozilla/gecko-dev/search?q=chrome&unscope...
What you call "a couple of websites" are actually full-blown applications. Your browser is more a virtual machine than a document reader.

Also, applications tend to use RAM when it's available. Think of all the cache, typically that's why back is snappy (it doesn't re-render the page from scratch). Maybe it would make you feel good to see a lot of unused RAM, but since it's there, it's better to use it than not.
It's certainly a controversial book. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nina_Teicholz

> Teicholz' claims were harshly criticized by the DGAC, the US Department of Health and Human Services, the Center for Science in the Public Interest, and others, including a petition signed by 180 scientists, and they called for the BMJ to retract the article or issue corrections.[11][13][16][19][20] The BMJ issued a correction in October 2015 and another in December 2016, the latter with a statement that after an independent review of the paper, it had decided not to retract it.[21][22][23][24]

> Meanwhile, the Arnold Foundation had been pressing for Congressional hearings about the DGAC report and attempted to block the release of the 2015 Dietary Guidelines for Americans; its lobbying group arranged meetings for Teicholz with members of Congress and White House staff.[11][13] Teicholz and the Foundation were criticized at the time for being allies of the meat and dairy industries in their lobbying and other public relations efforts to maintain high levels of meat and dairy consumption by US consumers.[25][26]
Firefox probably supported profiles before Chrome even existed. It always saved my life back in the days when you reinstalled the OS and you could just backup/copy over the entire directory of the profile.

Personally I edit the Firefox shortcut to add -p at the end of the target to get the profile manager showing up every time I launch.

I also use this when I spend a few weeks on a different machine at work: create a new profile, synchronize it with my account, then when I leave I nuke the entire profile.
there's a distinction between random variables that are assumed to actually be normal and RVs that we conceptually apply the clt to and then treat as normal.

in the case of test scores it could be either. for an individual test it's possible the distribution is roughly normal actually. but if you, for example, look at subsets of all SAT scores and take their means (the mean of the subset) then those averages will be Bell shaped because of the clt.

Just to directly answer your question: the iid random variable is the test score or the iq.

I would say that the latest Alzheimer's drug failure finally broke the camel's back. While NIH will tolerate groupthink indefinitely, biopharma eventually wants a payback.

I suspect biopharma pulling funding and causing the amyloid people to suddenly lose clout is more to blame for the come-to-Jesus party in Alzheimer's land.
The CLI syntax design reflects the N-inputs --> N-outputs capability and no. of options reflects the number of components e.g. there are 300+ demuxers and 400+ filters available.

This is not to say there isn't scope for improvement. A couple of areas for improvement is the consistency of options naming across filters that implement the same feature within those filters, and a clearer syntax to identify the target of an option i.e. protocol, demuxer, decoder..etc

They generate unwind information on the fly as they compile the code which is then stashed to one side, compressed and accessed only if a true language-level stack trace is required. Also they don't expose argument or return values in stack traces.
DNS config different between machines?
This is an extremely important point. Since I was a grad student, there have been at least 5 monumental "findings" in physics:

1. A spinning top weighs less if it spins one way than if it spins the other

2. A "fifth force," IIRC it was linked to baryons

3. The climate is warming, not (as people thought) cooling

4. Superconductivity can be achieved at high (liquid Ln2) temperatures

5. Fusion can be achieved at low (room) temperatures ("cold fusion").

6. Homeopathic properties of water

7. Faster-than-light travel of neutrinos

In each case there was a rush for confirmation- tons of excitement in the field, etc. Some were confirmed; some debunked; some remain controversial. I read somewhere that Google is working on cold fusion?
I may have misunderstood the issue, but you can choose the DoH provider you want to use (Menu > Options > General > Network Seetings > Enable DNS over HTTPS > Custom).

Sure, a default has to be provided, but most of the people who will activate this option knows what they're doing, and which provider they want to use/avoid.
Rate control sounds nearly identical to TCP Vegas then, no?

But out of order delivery and (I'm guessing) out of order retransmits appear to be unique to fasp. What did you mean about these being unique "until recently"? [edit - nevermind, saw below you were referring to sack]

PS. I remember looking at fasp ~10 years ago and it looked like a fantastic tech. Someone's taking things that many people only talked about and putting them into a product that really worked well. Cutting edge stuff. A job like - a dream for many :)
You can rewrite the git history when you squash commits for example.

One case I've heard is that some people no longer have their names on git commits they made to various Google open source projects because their commit went inside, where it was rebased, merged, integrated, squashed, and then what the public sees is a single git commit by a Google insider that is the result of thousands of individual commits.

On the specific topic of IQ and scientific racism, the "centrist" position of "just asking questions" has been a cloak for agendas and not caring about the truth for a while now. Exhibit A: https://mobile.twitter.com/Simon_Whitten/status/117331966332...
Exhibit B, what happens when you actually dig into the science behind the most well known peddler of the IQ is real and important, therefore racism is actually not a problem meme https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UBc7qBS1Ujo

Note that I'm not saying there aren't good faith inquiries to be had, but it is really hard to have these with racist agendas being pushed whole claiming "neutral" questions.

A few observations that I would like people to keep in mind when looking at these fields:

- the people who complain about being "silenced" continue to find funding, public platforms to push their research and in some cases, tenure

- the "hard questions not being raised" seem to cluster around the question of differences between "races" and less around whether the concept of race actually makes sense in humans (AFAIK geneticists generally think no), whether these differences might be socially constructed (yes, that's possible. If there are systemic social biases against groups with genetic genes the impacts of these will be 100% explained by the presence of these genes in data, but 0% genetically determined as in biologically determined). And often they are then raised to dismiss concerns about the systematic problems which might have caused the measured problems

- scientific racism and shoddy science in this field has a long history, and people carry their misconceptions around. Famous examples are "objective" written IQ tests given to barely literal test subjects, or asking trigonometry questions, Both of which test the schooling of the subjects more than the IQ

In an inherently political field of science, denying the political nature and implications of questions being raised and the manner in which they are raised and trying ot claim "objectiveness" is in and of itself a political tactic.

I switched to FF for my daily driver almost a year ago on my Windows machine and haven't looked back. Previously FF had too many performance issues but since each tab is run in a separate process, it's been just as good as Chrome (not so much on OSX however, I still use Chrome there).

The other advantage of FF for me, besides Pocket, is that I can share and send pages with FF on Android which has support for ad-blockers. Last time I checked, Chrome didn't support extensions on Android.

There are a number of attacks that retguard can’t help with.
> If a stranger's inside of your home, there is a significant chance they're going to murder or grievously harm you or others in your house.

Why would you assume this? Do you have any studies that back this up? My default assumption, way more logical I'd say, would be that they want to steal stuff. Stealing is logical and rational, under some circumstances. Attacking someone (so putting yourself at risk as the attacker) or killing someone (again, putting yourself at risk immediately and after) are not rational.

Why would you assume that they want to kill or harm you? I'd say that I have Occam's razor on my side with this one. Stealing stuff makes waaaay more sense and again, can be quite logical in many circumstances.
Suppose you have a school with 30 groups of students. All students are randomly assigned to the groups (so independent of their skill at IQ tests). The distribution of measured IQ within classes can be any distribution. But let’s take the 30 averages of the groups. The mean of these averages of groups (asymptotically) follows the normal distribution according to the CLT.
I’m sorry, that doesn’t sound possible. A clean Windows 10 install (kernel plus userland) can clock in at 6GB and you’re telling me the Bloomberg server CLI was hitting the 4GB wall just because it’s statically linked? No amount of pure code gets that big, it must be something else in the tooling or object format. Perhaps it includes binary assets.
What type of data did you loose ? The addon seems to isolate cookies and storage by container
Searching for "chrome" like that likely gets matches for another kind of chrome. Firefox calls everything that's outside of the web page (navigation controls and so on) for the "browser chrome". So many of those hits are simply for other things.
The military isn't "service" like a normal job. You are thrust into a world where rank has an immense amount of power over your entire life and, depending on your chain of command, you can be subject to abuses of power that are state-sanctioned. If the platoon SGT decided he wants to single you out for any possible reason there isn't a lot you can practically do except suffer.

I served over 10 years in the military and it was a great decision for my life but I'm somewhat against conscription except in dire times.

> there is not even a disease-slowing treatment.

True-ish, but Aricept is generally seen and used as a disease-slowing treatment (even if the data is inconclusive, it is perceived this way by physicians).

> In patients with Alzheimer's Dementia participating in clinical trials, administration of single daily doses of 5 mg or 10 mg of ARICEPT produced steady-state inhibition of acetylcholinesterase activity (measured in erythrocyte membranes) of 63.6% and 77.3%, respectively when measured post dose. The inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in red blood cells by donepezil hydrochloride has been shown to correlate to changes in ADAS-cog, a sensitive scale that examines selected aspects of cognition. The potential for donepezil hydrochloride to alter the course of the underlying neuropathology has not been studied. Thus ARICEPT cannot be considered to have any effect on the progress of the disease.

> Efficacy of treatment of Alzheimer's Dementia with ARICEPT has been investigated in four placebo-controlled trials, 2 trials of 6-month duration and 2 trials of 1-year duration.

> In the 6 months clinical trial, an analysis was done at the conclusion of donepezil treatment using a combination of three efficacy criteria: the ADAS-Cog (a measure of cognitive performance), the Clinician Interview Based Impression of Change with Caregiver Input (a measure of global function) and the Activities of Daily Living Subscale of the Clinical Dementia Rating Scale (a measure of capabilities in community affairs, home and hobbies and personal care).

Aricept does not seem to have much efficacy overall, but it makes a lot of money for the lack of alternatives. (https://www.medicines.org.uk/emc/product/3776/smpc)
Well I have an anecdote that works as a parallel:

During my first few years of surfing, I would try (and buy) lots of different surfboards. Also happened to me that as I earned money, I spent more and more on surfboards.

I moved countries a few years ago and sold all my boards back at home, and just got two boards here (one for small waves, one for larger waves). That turned out to be so much better for me. I don't spend so much time looking at every detail of the surfboard, instead I just go surf. I try new things on the surfboards I have, and it tends to be about techniques and less so about the boards themselves. Occasionally I will try my mate's surfboards and I think that they're nice, but not enough to justify spending more money on another board.

I don't believe it's 100% about proneness to get caught up in that kind of stuff. I guess for me it was more just trying to get the most out of the experience. Ironically enough I wasn't surfing as much before moving to a different country, whereas where I currently live I surf 2-3 times a week. Maybe there's some parallels there? As in the more you actually practice X, the more you're likely to find the subset of tools that actually work for you?

That said, I do still believe (and agree with the link) in a few times a year testing out new languages, frameworks, etc, so see what the fuss is about, and in the process learn new things that I might bring back to my current project or toolset.

This is a false dichotomy. You don't have to choose between 1 C++ developer and 15+ package of Python developers.

Personal productivity is generally going to be slower in C++ than it is in Python. In most situations you would gain more productivity out of a similarly skilled Python dev as you are a C++ dev, so you'd probably need to hire more C++ developers.

Unless your argument is "C++ devs are smart and Python devs are dumb", in which case, let's not start calling people names over the language they use.
Probably significantly fewer memory corruption vulnerabilities.
You are overestimating their actual power and competency by many orders of magnititude, almost as much as you underestimate the problem of "world hunger".
I like Firefox but I'm also a heavy tab user. Usually around 70-100 open with ~10-13GB RAM. Chrome is just better in that aspect, much better performance. Altho I use ungoogled-chromium not retail Chrome

Haha! Yes, totally! No German engineer "overengineers". Ever! It's called "refinement", "evolution" and "sophistication". There is no language to criticise engineers in a nation dominated by engineers (and businesspeople). ;)
I wish Pocket didn't come enabled by default. It's intrusive spyware.
