The function itself cannot be removed from the standard library (and likewise the symbol can never be reclaimed for a different use), but there's no reason that future editions couldn't report a compiler error when attempting to use the function. The function would only be inaccessible at the source level, not at the linking level, thereby completely preserving cross-edition compatibility while also mandating that crates remove references to it when migrating to a newer edition. Think of it like an edition-specific deprecation lint being turned from warn to deny.

Thank you for a very insightful reply that has made me reflect on my position.

I am still concerned by the ethical ramifications of forcing people to testify against their friends and loved ones. I don't think it would necessarily result in a failed state if the prosecution were forced to rely on only willing witnesses and physical evidence.

I am curious if you have any insight regarding the crime of making false statements to federal agents [1]. This actually is a law passed by congress that seems to interfere with free speech.

Spain seems to be an exception to this theory.
Right, VRBO focused on vacation rentals, i.e. places where short-term stays are welcome, customary, and legal. AirBnB decided to apply the same model in cities were the practice is unwelcome, novel, and unlawful.
I still believe that's wrong, but a re-do now would be pointless. I doubt anyone within the next few decades will put someone for the people, rather than for the rich people and corporations, on the supreme court. There's a lot of corruption (money/influence) everywhere that needs to be cleaned up first.

I find them very useful for testing codes, as a sort of rapid-response travis. I run a script that pulls any new modification into each of my five "pets" (openbsd, slackware, freebsd, voidlinux+musl, dragonflybsd) and runs the tests. Since the systems are so different, it is very easy to break something. Since you notice it immediately (and not after waiting 1 minute for the travis answer) you develop a sense for avoiding non-portable things.

It looks like they want to panic if the variant is not what they expect. Basically implement their own unwrap() for their own enum, since the above logic is basically what Option::unwrap() does for Option::Some.

Assuming there's not some wider design issue, I'd probably implement an unwrap_qux() method on the Bar enum
I think they mean something like abstract base classes.

It's tempting to design a class hierarchy from first principles: everything in the game is an entity, from which players and NPCs are derived. The NPC base class has several derived versions (allies, monsters); the monster class is specialized into animals and dragons, which in turn....

You can often paint yourself into a corner this way, where you suddenly don't want the dragon class to reuse part of the MonsterBase. They're suggesting making the classes stand-alone with duplicated code, at least until you figure out what these classes actually have in common and what is incidental overlap.

I wish we would get single payer out of this, but the plague of greed in medicine is way too deep to be excised in a few months from a regular old viral plague.

Edit: I'm assuming we're talking about in the reality scenario where we don't have the testing capacity to test everyone. If you're not just testing the symptomatic, you're testing everyone who isn't already in the infected set, I don't think the US/Canada is prepared for that.

It's not really an improvement on many of the others out there. It has some of the same problems as well, such as oddly smooth skin tone, deformed or blurry ears, and the face looking like a morph with the original rather than completely different.

The TSA has been proven many times over to be totally ineffectual security theater - theres this popular report from a few years back that the TSA has a 95% failure rate when their measures are tested[1].

It doesn't go anywhere because there is now a lot of private industry in it for contract money to supply the spectacle whom have the lobbying power to keep it in place, but it is a total waste of money and gross violation of privacy for no positive benefit to society.

Yeah but the parent comments point is that “life and death for a company” is categorically different from life and death for human beings, ie actual life and death.
I think most people would agree that 'a:f g h x' is easier to read than 'x h g f:a'. This may be an artifact from familiarity from math or something else, but I think the point still stands. I've personally never found RPN languages easy to read.

Yes, it was real. While in college, I was working as a programmer (Perl mostly) for a book publishing company and several database systems wouldn't boot up after the new year. It turned out they didn't bother upgrading their software. This was common, but by then, most software companies had patches available - probably because of the hype. In this case, I believe the fear provided by the media actually helped avoid a much bigger crisis.
Agree completely with this. This is what I’m trying to understand, and perhaps put some extra effort on creating something that can debunk the fallacy of SEO.

As a developer I feel we have reached a point where this shouldn’t be considered a service anymore.

But the “why” remains
The official stats are throttled by the availability of testing.
Writing rust since ~2016, doing a lot of async/await and multithreaded stuff and using explicit lifetimes quite often.

At the beginning it was a case of write the code, then see how the borrow checker complains and fix it. Now that I understand the semantics intuitively, for the last year or so, it's very rare for the compiler to complain about anything. I guess I've internalised the semantics -- they're not exactly arbitrary, mostly the lifetime rules just follow from what you should be doing anyway.

One thing I would encourage (and this applies in general) is trying to understand _why_ the compiler is complaining about some code you wrote before attempting to "make the error go away". Don't just hammer away until you make it work; that's not how you learn. I've seen a lot of Rust code that's full of unnecessary use of Cell, Rc, etc because people didn't take the time to understand the semantics and just reached for ways to "make the errors go away".

"The implications of superdeterminism, if it is true, would bring into question the value of science itself by destroying falsifiability, as Anton Zeilinger has commented" [1]

If you're elderly, immune-compromised, have cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory diseases, or cancer then call a doctor or call/go to an ER. These are hi-risk groups and require close monitoring.

You most likely won't NEED to see a doctor simply because you have a coronavirus symptom - you may have something else entirely or only a mild case of coronavirus. After all, most people recover quickly from coronavirus.

Don't hesitate to ask your hotel for help. Do they have a nurse or doctor on call whom you can speak to? Let them know you're ill and how ill. Many hotels will support your own self-management by periodically checking on you (calling and checking on you every 4-6 hours, etc.), providing over-the-counter medications or, if necessary, calling 911 to dispatch emergency personnel to transport you to the ER.

However should you develop respiratory distress or fever over 100 degrees Fahrenheit (coughing and sneezing optional) then get thee to the Emergency Room as soon as possible. Don't wait and don't worry about insurance.

Best of luck!
By then, we should have enough testing kits, and authorities should be better prepared to handle it.
There's two schools of thought to civil disobedience. The first holds that one must surrender oneself to the authorities to distinguish civil disobedience from pure criminality. But the other holds that one should not surrender or plead guilty so as not to legitimize an unjust system.
>even when people are dying in the streets

And this is happening where, exactly? Are you talking about heroin addicts or something?

>military spending

You are talking about <19% of all Federal spending, most of which ends up in the hands of American citizens employed by the DoD and private Defense contractors. Medicare and medicaid combined equal this expense, then you still have SS and the rest of the welfare system.

>the wall

Less than $5B was appropriated for the border wall and border security, which represents an aspect of national defense which is about as basic and fundamental as the concept of an independent nation itself.

So, clearly, the vast majority of the rest of that $1.5 trillion budget is going to other "dumb shit" that is even less important than the most foundational purpose of state government but you haven't bothered to mention what, for some reason...

>Even when it would likely reduce healthcare spending.

For who? How likely? How much would it be reduced? What do we have to give up in exchange? You do know that giving full control of your personal healthcare and a larger portion of your hard-earned income over to a bloated and corrupt bureaucratic state (that has proven time and time again to put the interests of the state over and above that of the nation/people it is mandated to serve, to the extent that the idea of replacing American citizens with a completely foreign population is seen as a viable avenue in pursuit of its own expansion and preservation) isn't the only way to reduce the price of healthcare, right?

Universal healthcare in a country where people like you wish to basically dismantle our national defense and allow open borders is just about the fastest way to national ruin I could ever imagine. Just stone cold stupid.
The judge’s distinction between punitive and coercive is important. Contempt of court is closer to police use of force than to criminal punishment. Faced with a hostile suspect, cops can do some nasty stuff. Electric shocks, beating with sticks, painful chemicals. But suppose they’re ordering you to stand up, and you’re deaf or paralyzed. The baton keeps landing and you keep not doing what they ask. Resisting arrest is a punishable crime! But they can’t just beat you to death on the side of the road for it. They’d have to actually get a conviction, and even then, beating isn’t a sentencing option.

Contempt of court is the nightstick. Obstruction of justice is the resisting arrest charge. That may be on the table for her. But you can’t just keep holding someone in contempt until they do the thing they’ll never do, or once you no longer need it. She’s not asking for special treatment, that is just how contempt works.

I haven’t done it yet so I’m not bragging. And how am I gonna take a street drug that’s dirty, tainted with other drugs and also there’s no way to know what dose you are taking which is critical to the treatment? And I’m not getting anything off the dark web because I don’t want to go to prison and also want know what I’m taking. Making single dose quantities is harmless and it’s pretty much impossible to be caught. And nobody cares anyway because I’m not distributing it or even using it in public. The number of people who do this are in the double digits and offer no threat to society. What the fuck is wrong with you.
Cool. You know a lot about this topic. I didn't connect self-help with philosophy turning super analytical in the early 1900s, that's interesting.

My opinion is more from just my experience with self-help, and others who were also really into it. Self-help, and people engaged in it, have an undercurrent of anxiety. But that's just my experiential knowledge of it (I would say the same for psychology and philosophy majors).

Also I wouldn't place Marcus Aurelius or Aristotle or some of my favorite philosophers under the umbrella of 'self-help'. If you really wanted to take it out there, then self-help is really everything. What is the purpose of anything but to improve the set standard with which you measure the experience of a human being, a society, or a civilization? You could extend the umbrella forever, and include psychology, etc., with diminishing definitiveness.

The main gripes I have with growth-mindset is the rigidity of it. It is hard to think a positive thought while you are 'negative'. But also, it is hard to think a negative thought while you are 'positive'. To the mind, negative and positive sentiments do not matter because they are simply the responses that were generated by one's beliefs.

Now growth mindset proposes that you could magically make negative beliefs positive. This is poor psychological advice. There is a reason why those beliefs are negative. While direct examination of those beliefs (an interrogation of sorts) might not be the best way to re-form those beliefs, just plain forcing positivity on a negative belief is just as harmful as forcing negativity on a positive belief.

Forced hope is just as violent as forced hopelessness. It's one thing to encourage someone, and another to say that 'the reason for your failure is that you are not positive enough'. Or to say 'if you just change your mindset, you can succeed'. It really a) cheapens how difficult it is to change yourself and b) takes the person away from actually understanding themselves on a deeper level.

I really started changing when I stopped trying to change myself so much. Self-help (and basically zero Western philosophy) doesn't understand that.

You could take the route from modern clinical psychology (memory reconsolidation, etc.) and get there, or find a good martial arts master and learn taoism.

Yeah, thinking back on it, self-help sucks.

No, I think experimenting with explosives on public streets should be illegal. But experimenting them on your private property or that of someone else who has let you do so should be legal. I also think car racing should be legal on private property.
Haha, sadly not a Scientologist so I must admit ignorance.
The math says so (and the math is right¹), but how we interpret it is another story entirely.

To get back on the example of dices: we might be building a whole storytelling around "probabilistic dices" because we haven't formalized the concept of the hand behind, yet.

I've always pictured entanglement as totally acceptable if you postulate an extra dimension. Then you simply have to picture a link in that extra dimension between the particles, like a 'U' crossing flatland in two 'dots' (particles) would manifest as 'entanglement' for the flatlanders.

But I've really grown skeptical of all such interpretations now (mine very much included), I'd tell you honestly that I probably favor the one that seems most beautiful to me within the space of possibilities (which is what I care about and investigate, the pure science). Interpretation is belief, basically, even if your name is Schrödinger.

Looking at the leveraged trading, which is generally controlling the price of the market in crypto… you see the large majority of people went long and lost big on it. Very few went short.

To me it seems much more likely the large exchanges just dumped in order to make a killing off the leveraged longs.

So in short people did actually believe in it as a shore of wealth and exchanges manipulated this belief in order to selfishly profit.

This isn’t something that was easy to predict, my comment is obviously a reflection of what happened today but I think it’s the most logical explanation.

Is Airbnb a fad? Or may be it provides a value in remote under served areas only. For the most part if it worth setting up a hotel in the area, I found hotels are usually better both in terms of options and price. I also seem to be uncomfortable using another persons house and so walk and use stuff rather gingerly always worried about breaking their stuff or spoiling it. In a hotel I am somehow much freer. I don’t see the allure of Airbnb. I am only wondering how big or small the set of people like me is.
