Mutation without concurrency is still a problem for pattern matching. To return to your earlier example, suppose you've matched Point(3, y) and you're now in some code that assumes that the x-value of the Point is 3. Now, you call some method that has some reference to the point you're working on, and it mutates the x-value to 4. The assumption in that code after the match is now broken.
My understanding is that The Silmarilion was originally conceived as wrapped in Bilbo's Translations ftom the Elvish*. Christopher Tolkien said that he regretted not having that in the published version.

But there was never any talk of a new edition.
To build on this, I found this New Yorker article interesting in explaining the underlying mechanism of why divestment is arguably not as useful unless certain other conditions are met: https://www.newyorker.com/business/currency/does-divestment-...
I don’t know but I think a lot of people (no dependents) could live off $1M in invested savings for the rest of their life.

5-10 years in a managerial class role nets many that much.
You are probably looking for an aggregator like AllSides.com . You can get articles from "left" "center" and "right" related to a given topic, like "campaign finance." However, if you are looking for coverage of specific events, you may find that only one or two sides cover that event. Each side basically has selective attention; they will cover an event that interests their primary audience and ignore events that don't interest their audience. For example, you will find many articles on impeachment from left and center sources, but the same developments in impeachment may not even be covered by the sources on the right. That's why I find the "look at articles from all perspectives" approach to be flawed. The sides aren't directly comparable. And there's no guarantee that the two sides will be equally trustworthy or equally verifiable. Instead, I choose to go to a handful of trusted sources that don't express much obvious bias in their news articles, but might have biased opinion sections. Washington Post, AP, NYT, Reuters, WSJ, etc. may all have faults and make some mistakes, but they are more reliable and more likely to employ ethics in their journalism than biased sources further on the left or right. Just make sure whether you are reading a news article or an opinion article.
Anti astrology people are so prevalent in tech and also so silly to me. They all are so obsessed with reason and science that they can't understand that astrology is fun and a platform for introspection. It's not some societal ill ruining everything.

I get it though - I felt the same way when I was like 15 ;)

And what if they can't agree? Maybe apple make a device so thin that even USB-C won't fit and other manufacturers explicitly decide to hobble them by not supporting a thinner connector.

This law would be great for anti-competitive practices. Lowest common denominator wins by default.
Hopefully universal income will kick in before that happens, as most of the dull work gets automated.
Is that a bad thing? You can still write in Chinese with an IME, and most uses are on some sort of phone or computer anyways. 27 year old me learned how to text in Chinese but skipped learning the muscle memory to write characters, first I'm left handed so stroke order was bizarrely awkward anyways, but also...it just didn't feel important anymore.
That’s a very good summarization of the problems we face in dealing with aging. No drug can fix the damage that is caused by it. We have very early therapies that try to jumpstart or uplift existing biological machinery like the various immunotherapies currently being targeted towards cancers, but that’s still just taking advantage of what is inherent to our bodies. Over time these processes inevitably begin to fail.

You have to engineer new machinery to replace/repair the failing processes for any chance at real longevity. The kind of things that will be capable of doing something like that will be extraordinarily complex, and to compare the drugs we have available today is akin to comparing an abacus to a modern supercomputer.
I think you should broaden your categorization logic. One app idea I've never had time to start was to make (basically your project) but with also the intent to help filter by specific attributes like:

- offline play

- ads

- ads removable by IAP

- no gambling via IAP

- multiplayer

- 2 player online (1v1)

- 2 player online (co op)

- 2 player same device

- asynchronous multiplayer (like modern play by email, e.g. words with friends)

- not a farmville clone (almost all games trying to catch simcity SEO on android are actually farmville clone shitware).

- no paywalls

- no pay to win

- native of html5

- turn based

- real time

- board game

- 2d

- 3d

The problem is it's really hard to find good games in the android store because every search result is littered with child gambling addiction shitware, or the specific detail isn't isn't indexed at all anywhere.
If you want to build subways in less time for less money, the from-first-principles conclusion is that cut-and-cover is stupendously cheaper and quicker than tunneling.

But nobody wants to be the one who signs off on "long sections of major roads closed for months at a time over a period of several years".
I'm aware of the order of the planets, what I mean to say is Venus's climate has much less to do with its distance from the sun than its atmospheric composition. It'd be cooler if you moved it to Mar's orbit, but still much hotter than Earth, even although solar radiation is dropping off proportionally with r squared.
It has a demo page, "hidden" in the repo's description but not in README.md:

>Also, as someone who knows some instructors who stand to benefit from this decision: almost no one is happy about it. No one gains except these instructors--the department, future students, and future would-be instructors are all getting screwed (unless the department gets much more funding as a result of this).

This is just nonsense and is applicable to anything that takes money from the department. No, the department and future students wont be screwed because they have to pay back money.
It was flagged before I started typing the "Britannica" bit.
"That being said it should be noted US Naval strategy has never particularly relied on subs or been that great at it."

In WW2, the US used sub warfare to strangle Japan. It's arguable that this blockade was the most effective tactic pound for pound in the entire war.

And the US has relied upon subs to be the most survivable and effective nuclear deterrent in the Triad.

"This has always fallen to the Eurasian powers such as Germany, Russia, and China/Japan."

China? Seriously? Japan? No. And for all the fear we had of Soviet submarines during the Cold War, they definitely weren't great at it. They simply never had the resources for a blue-water fleet.

Basically nothing you've written is factually correct.

And in most cases a broader community of people working jobs! Huh, turns out those jobs ARE useful. (Sorry in advance for sarcasm.)
I wish Musk could provide a clearer vision for why this is important (cheap subways for any city that wants one!). Instead we get weird tiny bumpy tunnels and car elevators.
That was my thought too. I wonder if they're just dressing up their findings in environmental speak for points. What other industries do they plan to drop in the name of the environment?
> But does developing your spelling actually matter?

I don't think it does. I think it's similar to how people used to lament the loss of the bard who'd memorize songs/stories as reading became increasingly popular. I was just responding on how it changes how we think.

I do think mental math matters, but most people disagree so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
> Nobody has credible data enabling reproducible comparison of programming languages.

Right, so as "better" and "best" are unknown, we should stop using those terms. I like Java and I like ML, but I don't know that one of them is better than the other, and if so which.

> I find the evolution of all successful programming languages eventually to evolve into an ML-like core fascinating.

Some of the successful typed languages, sure: Java, C++, C#, but the three heavily influence one another, and at least Java's and C#'s designers were aware of ML. So I don't think that, to the extent this is true, it's some "natural" draw, but rather a direct or indirect influence. On the other hand, you have Go, which is also quite successful (admittedly in a lower tier of success), and it doesn't seem to be converging on something ML-like, though (although it is influenced by another Milner idea), and neither is C.

I wonder about this also. In most districts you don't have a choice, and it is those kids with October-December birthdays that are delayed a year because of the cut off date. Maybe they are using fake birth certificates?

do you think that would even remotely matter in a scenario where the effective comp rate is a buck 45???? machines wear out. the cost of even a oil change is typically 50-60 bucks. and don't even start with the electric thing which is decades away from broad applicability.

Wages can't drop to zero unless there's an infinite supply of labor. As time has gone by fewer and fewer of the gig economy drivers I see speak English, and fewer of them are the person whose name/face is on the account, so I suspect the pseudo-infinite labor supply is working as intended.

Yes? That depends on the device, of course.

I think another good argument for phones is that it's surely much easier to clean lint out of a lightning port than a USB C port.

Edit: But probably, I'd guess, right now the main reason Apple has stuck to lightning to whatever extent it is is because it's more convenient for its customers. USB C is already the standard, and Apple would benefit from switching to USB C across its product line if its customers would like that more.

Startpage recently got acquired, and is now (at least partially) owned by an advertising company. As a privacy advocate, I don't trust them. I use DuckDuckGo, I don't use Startpage.

However, you have to think of privacy and consumer hostile behavior as a continuum. Even though I don't trust Startpage as a private search engine, I also don't trust Google as a private search engine. The question is, "is Startpage still better than Google?"

I think it is. I think if you're in the position of saying, "I can't use DDG, I get the privacy issues, I get the monopoly issues, but I just don't like their results", then Startpage is still going to be a pretty big step up in privacy over Google search. Startpage is still going to be a good way to fragment your data so one company doesn't know everything about you. It's still going to be a good way of getting around the worst user-hostile UI changes to blend ads into search results.

If you disable Javascript and run a Google search, every single link you click on gets wrapped in a Google URL to record that click -- there is no way around that without some kind of browser extension. If you disable Javascript and run a Startpage search, you get direct links to the website.

So I heavily encourage people in your position to use Startpage if the alternative is continuing to use Google Search directly.

Along with the tunnelling speed improvements from what I'm gathering they are using model X chassis vehicles within the tunnels. The benefit of this is that you don't need rails, just line following sensors. There's no brake replacement because of regen etc. The main takeaway is that the carriage system will be able to be maintained by car mechanics and not locomotion engineers. What the stations will look like will be interesting to see because each "carriage" will be able to depart once full instead of waiting for an entire train to fill up.
This article is profoundly unconvincing, and its thesis rather idiotic (I use this sharp term only to honor the fallen warriors of many Just wars).

TSMC is "in China" it's just that ROC fabs are a few process nodes ahead of anything in the PRC.

Various US military and government orgs prefer to buy chips entirely sourced within the US, this isn't as much about pointing fingers at China, but it is presumably harder to suborn domestic workers than foreign workers.

Personally, my take on things is that the major world powers should use silicon entirely manufactured and assembled within their borders for critical and military/government hardware. It is too damn hard to verify chips after they are manufactured, because potential backdoors and vulnerabilities are too small to see these days. It is always an arms race between attackers and security, and whichever side is "winning" in a particular domain will shift back and forth, and the cost-effective tradeoffs will shift in position. Same thing happens in physical warfare over the course of history.

The argument that PRC "could probably find a way to interfere" is not germane, because perfect security was never on the table in the first place. We are just comparing different relative levels of security on a probabilistic basis comparing cost of attack and cost of defense.

At least for China, they've never done a country-wide sample, they've only done their richest city (Shanghai) and richest provinces. For the article cited, it is 2012 when they did just Shanghai (likewise Singapore is a city state and Estonia/Finland have less population than either).
This is the most important factor - the amount of people such a tunnel can move is borderline insignificant, compared to a proper subway with a train.
Note to self: in this article, “ERP” means “Enterprise a Resource Planning” but uses it as a synonym for “SAP”. There was no Erotic Role Play involved.

if you lay them down on the table and look from up top, they would be roughly similar. In terms of height (if you orient both of them directly towards your face, like you are about to plug them into your eyeballs, and measure the y-axis), I believe that lightning cable is about half the size of usb-c. Lightning also feels much lighter (no pun intended).

But rails were invented for a reason - they're drastically more efficient. So doesn't this just trade lower upfront costs for much higher operational costs (in energy consumption per mile travelled)?
From my personal experience, there are two camps: people who are working hard, and people who are on cruise control.

Because so many are on cruise control, anyone who wants to make something happen has to work to make up for the lethargy all around him/her.

I don't think it has ever not been this way except for short stints where entire tribes felt a sense of urgency. Most people's idea of an ideal life is sipping cocktails by the beach and gossiping about who said what. There is some wisdom in that :)

> Increasing lifespan more than that requires an entirely new paradigm or class of therapeutics. Like you said, we'll need entirely new biological/genetic technology to address the system-wide mutation and degradation of the body that inevitably occurs through the progression of time.

That's exactly what the drugs being discussed in this thread purportedly do. For instance, NMN allegedly repairs epigenetic factors that repair DNA damage, but which degrade as we age.

So digital giants have more lobbyist potential (in financial terms only, they cannot compete in massive 'job creation' in a districts all around the US, especially blue collar jobs) than the whole MIC, and the incentives to use it to counter lobbyist potential of warmongers. Why don't they use it for actual lobbying-for-global-piece?
This has been proved with Syria and Russia. The U.S. didn't try to stop or go to war with Russia for losing Syria to them, they accepted the loss of Russia "keeping" Syria and moved on.

People can be wrong, and in fact it is necessary for people to be able to be wrong and state their case and sometimes emotion without tonal arguments to dismiss the hardest of questions.

The root of the comment, the curious part, is: are VCs somehow causing undesirable pathology that leads to their "tiredness"? The moderator happens to work for a VC. I don't think the parent of this thread makes a compelling case, but the sentiment is rooted in reality and can be used to start a useful if uncomfortable discussion.

Perhaps this is not a true intellectual community and I should just leave.
Why would you tip before getting service anyways? that never made sense to me
While you may be technically right in many of these points, what you say misses or purposefully deflects points from the parent. For example:

> [Google] Sells ads for a living

>> Microsoft, Amazon and Apple also sell ads.

Parent is not stating that the companies do not sell ads, parent is stating that Google primarily makes its money by selling ads. Microsoft, Amazon, and Apple do not.

> [Google] Kills products randomly

> [Google] Kills platforms randomly (leaving developers high and dry)

>> Apple, Amazon and Microsoft all routinely deprecate products.

There is a difference between deprecating and "killing" as the parent puts it, and unlike Apple, Amazon, and Microsoft, Google has a website dedicated to its many killed products [1], primarily because Google has a pretty bad reputation for killing a product randomly without much notice.

Beyond those, you're being disingenuous with at least these two points:

> Microsoft censors their products in China, Google does not.

> Amazon sells counterfeit products, Google does not.

You're technically correct but that's because 1) Google products aren't accessible in China, and 2) Google doesn't really sell physical products like Amazon does (if you don't count some devices like phones). That's like saying, assuming Elmer's Glue isn't in China, that "Microsoft censors their products in China, Elmer's Glue does not."

I'm curious who will take the other side(s) of this trade. If you can invest capital in large chuncks (aka. PE/HF) why not just go long? If you can provide enough capital to manage down the business better than where it's priced now... that's an opportunity.
Drivers would refuse to accept a low priced order, or one without tip, presumably.
