which is a parser combinator library, and it was way easier

I like parser combinators but a word of warning.

A lot of parser combinators (not all) have problems with recursive grammar such as Json and SQL [1].

For instance, a JSON map can contain a JSON map and this can lead to stack overflows when defining the grammar.

Also worth noting he claimed they will do first fly of Falcon 9 in 2007, but happened in 2010. Same with Model3 production rates etc. Also worth noting that others just don't provide any time frames in fear of failing those. Musk is just more open with plans and often too optimistic, but they still have most advanced self driving capabilities that are actually mass selling now.

Hi,

I had a quick look and here are my remarks:

- with the [six] library, there's no need to maintain two versions

- parsing script args yourself isn't necessary either thanks to tools like, [argparse] (in the stdlib), [click], [docopt]

- not quite sure why you use the RawCongigParser, but it seems like you're modifying the behavior thereof. It might be advisable to subclass it instead

- a little documentation wouldn't hurt

- it's not entirely clear why the code is doing what it's doing

- not sure what the goal of this is

Haven't run it through a linter, but I like the descriptive variable names and methods and the spacing. The lack of a argument parser has led you to convoluted code however: 5 levels of ifs aren't easy to read.

That is utterly nonsense. There is no safe and clean nuclear reactor, there never will be.
Okay really weird to see this come up because just a few days ago I saw a video about reductionism in science and free will, I think it was a John Searle lecture.

I find the idea of life as an organizing force that locally reduces entropy and 'offloads' disorder on the environment deeply compelling, and what I wondered was, does this not put a pretty big nail into reductionist scientific worldviews that argue purely in terms of bottom-up physical explanations?

Is there some account of life at the level of particles that could ever give a reasonable description of the behavior we observe, or is the existence of living organisms evidence of some sort of genuine top-down causality?

The reason why I was looking into this was the TV show Devs that toys with the idea of determinism and the idea that even though someone could look at a prediction of their future, they could not change it, and to me this made sense if the world could be purely explained in terms of bottom-up physics, but I started to scratch my head if decision making could actually go top-down.

Anyway slightly rambly post but if someone has a book, or essay or some other reading recommendation on this I'd appreciate it.

I'm kinda confused.

The author berates Debian for patching many upstream software packages to conform to "the Debian way", and then says:

> The kernel and base system is completely separated from the third party applications and base system configuration goes into /etc while all third party configuration goes into /usr/local/etc.

Doesn't that mean that FreeBSD has to patch all third-party software to look for its configuration in /usr/local/etc, creating a "FreeBSD way" that is just as much at risk as breaking upstream software, making its documentation not apply etc. as the Debian software?

Or is there a real, technical difference that makes one kind of modification less intrusive than the other?
That is not quite correct. There was a lot of discussion about the coal plant in question (Datteln 4). It is ready built, but might not have gotten into the operation at all. In the end, it seems it goes into production replacing some very old east german coal plants which get shut down early. Supposedly, the new plant is cleaner and more efficient than the aged cold plants it replaces. Usage of coal in Germany is in a strong decline, as CO2 certificates and the carbon tax are making it less and less attractive for the power companies.

Closing the nuclear power plants certainly increases the challenges in becinung CO2 neutral, but we are talking about aging power plants which would have to be closed pretty soon anyway.

Which is an even bigger problem for France, its fleet of reactors is approaching the end of the life time and there are not enough new reactors being built to replace the aging reactors. So the reduction of nuclear energie is the direct consequence of that, independant of ecological concerns.

That sounds similar to what I arrived to when I became somewhat obsessed with the topic yet admittedly lacking much knowledge about it. Lookup hormesis (basically life needing some amount of chaos to keep it strong) or 10th man rule, there's some interesting correlates that I wrote about here [0]. It's all pretty interesting but being stubborn as I am, it took me a while to realize I'm better off leaving it to smarter people more versed in those topics. I eagerly await some very intelligent person who doesn't mind risking being seen as a quack to try to marry thermodynamic principles with human behavior and the like, even though it's more descriptive than prescriptive and may not tell us as much as we'd like to know. It also may be kind of existentially defeating to some as it'd necessarily prescribe deterministic views to life but some say quantum mechanics still leaves some philosophical wiggle-room for us there.

It comes down to the hardware you choose.

I'm using a 7th Gen Lenovo X1 Carbon. When I got it everything worked out of the box with Fedora.

Of course if you buy a machine with exotic hardware (cough Broadcom) then it'll be a pain.

I switched form VSCode to PHPStorm half a year ago, and while it feels a bit slower, the improvements are so unbelievable worth it for me. It does have a taste for memory, but then again, it easily saves me a lot of time each month, so just throwing RAM at it was a no-brainer for me.

In a perfect world I'd probably use FreeBSD in all the places I currently use Linux. I however don't live in a perfect world so I haven't used FreeBSD for anything significant in over a decade.

My number one problem with FreeBSD (and OpenBSD) has been hardware support. I got an HPE Microserver to use as a compact centralized storage. No matter what I could not get FreeBSD even booting on the machine. It's got an AMD APU and apparently FreeBSD has zero support for it. With Ubuntu I had zero installation issues and still got to use ZFS for storage.

Similarly I have a SFF AMD box to use as a router. While FreeBSD would boot on it, every few weeks it would kernel panic and need to be power cycled because FreeBSD shit the bed with the Ethernet cards in it. Ubuntu with the same exact usage patterns has given me absolutely no trouble.

I've never been able to get FreeBSD fully working on a laptop. Something is always broken (usually WiFi) and power management sucks. It's also entirely inconvenient to have to power down the laptop because it won't wake up when opening the lid.

My second major problem has been a lot of seemingly advanced features in FreeBSD are very experimental or simply difficult to use properly. While FreeBSD's Jails are very sophisticated they are a pain in the ass to manage and there's multiple management tools available with wildly different levels of functionality.

I want FreeBSD to exist and keep pushing forward but I've given up on using it. None of its technical features can make up for the fact it won't run or run well on hardware I actually own. Advanced features don't mean much to me if I can't use them effectively.

I'm not developing FreeBSD (or Linux), my interest in them extends about as far as launching other pieces of software I want to use or that I'm writing. I'm not typically pushing the limits of the systems so interesting optimizations around edge cases don't mean much to me. I don't get paid to support myself or my personal projects so I'm just going to go with the system offering the least hassle. That hasn't been FreeBSD since the 4.x days (compared to contemporary Linux distros).
That is fucking rad.
> I curmudgeonly have yet to come to terms with the blatant layering violation of ZFS being a combined block-device-manager and filesystem

It has both advantages and disadvantages. It’s a trade-off. ZFS decided it was worth it, and so did btrfs.

We've had a great experience building a mid-size app with re-frame. Sure, writing subscription and event handlers and wiring it all together seems like a lot of boilerplate when you could just fetch().then(), but in the long run the architecture really pays off.

It's not perfect, I do lament the boilerplateyness myself, but I have not seen anything better in my decade of web dev.
bash/shell knowledge helped me automate a lot of stuff with the 80/20 approach. I can't stress enough how often a simple 10 lines bash script automated hours of manual work for me.

Also, `vim -` (stdin buffer edit mode) is absurdly awesome. It starts with `ls -la | vim -` and ends up with `cat * | sed ... | vim -` and saves a ton of time.

These bashrc aliases rescued my stupidness a lot of times:

> alias cls="clear; printf '\033[3J'"; # clear screen and scroll buffer

> alias cp="cp -i"; # confirm before overwrite

> alias df="df -h"; # human-readable sizes

> alias mv="mv -i"; # confirm before overwrite

> alias ns="netstat -tup --wide"; # show active program sockets

If I would have to choose, it's definitely VIM that automated the most. Switched to VIM around 2004 and didn't regret it eversince.

Remotely debugging on an ssh server to figure out what's going on - with the same editor configuration and setup as on your desktop computer - comes in very handy in emergency situations when you have almost no tolerance for mistakes.

Most software can be compiled with --prefix=/usr/local, and then it will store stuff in /usr/local/share, /usr/local/etc, and so forth.

In fact, /usr/local is actually the default for a lot of programs; you manually have to specifically --prefix=/usr if you want to use that.

I used to maintain a bunch of FreeBSD ports, and whenever this wasn't supported I'd send a patch upstream, which was pretty much always accepted. In a few cases: yeah, you'll have to patch the paths, which is not ideal, but it's a lot less patching than what Debian does, which often has more changes and backports security fixes etc.
This is not the first educational project I've seen that insists on manually writing the parser.

Call me contrarian but I find the article's approach poor (at least, as it is now).

If one looks at the overall content of the two articles of the series, 70%/80% of the content (or possibly more) is parsing, which is arguably the least interesting, or at least, the most boilerplate, part of a database system.

I'm not sure the original paper has enough substance to precisely pin down the author's preferred axioms. In practice, the adjectives "intuitionistic" and "constructive" are used with enough author-specific meanings that you just need to read their definition each time.

FWIW, the term "intuitionistic mathematics" sounds a bit odd to my ear. Usually you hear about "intuitionistic logic" or "constructive logic" which are both part of the larger program of "constructive mathematics."

Anyway, the "Five Stages" paper I link does a good job of introducing the broader ideas of constructive mathematics and, perhaps, gives a taste of what Gisin is excited about.

> The equations of physical models and their solution stays exactly the same in constructive mathematics as in classical one.

I'm not a cosmologist, but AFAIU the Hilbert formalism of QM relies on Hilbert spaces always having a basis, which is famously equivalent to the Axiom of Choice. I'm not sure you can formulate the concept of self-adjoint operators without that, at least for arbitrary Hilbert spaces.

My suspicion is that AoC simply broadens the class of phase spaces to include pathological ones that "don't actually matter," so your point probably stands in all practical applications. However, it would take (hard) work to carefully extricate AoC from the current formalisms.
There already are laws, regulations and courts that rule on the exceptions to free speech. This should never be in the hands of a private company to decide.

I don't disagree with the proclamation here but can't say I agree with the result. The economy is tied to productivity and without productivity we're doomed to be stuck on an earth that will eventually stop existing, no matter how long we try to keep it habitable. I don't know what the best answer is but I don't think it should be to decrease productivity, at least not in the STEM sector.

Cool article, but it does go through a lot of effort (copying a string many times and then executing it) in order to get a loop on one line. In modern APL we'd just use the Power operator (⍣), which repeats a function. The dfn {⎕←Life ⍵} gets the next iteration and displays it, so {{⎕←Life⍵}⍣⍺⊢⍵} does this ⍺ times, where ⍺ is the left argument (the ⊢ is the identity function: all it does it to prevent ⍺ and ⍵ from being stranded together into one array). If we want space between the iterations, we can print an empty line first, with {{⎕←''⋄⎕←Life⍵}⍣⍺⊢⍵}. Substituting in the definition of Life, we have

RepLife ← {{⎕←''⋄⎕←↑1 ⍵∨.∧3 4=+/,¯1 0 1∘.⊖¯1 0 1∘.⌽⊂⍵}⍣⍺⊢⍵}

Try it with

10 RepLife ¯10 ¯10↑3 3⍴1 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 0

Another old paper on the Game of Life is Eugene McDonnell's "Life: Nasty, Brutish, and Short" (https://www.jsoftware.com/papers/eem/life.htm). This was where John Scholes got the idea of doing three rotations along each dimension. Interestingly, McDonnell attributes the idea to an implementation by Don Knuth in METAFONT!
