They (South Korea, Taiwan, etc.) did not need lockdown because testing and tracing were successful! Of course there's no success stories with lockdown and successful tracing - the early successes didn't need full lockdown (unless you count China), and the ones going through lockdown now will need weeks or months to contain it.

Sigh.
Frankly, fairness is irrelevant. There's nothing fair about the distribution of wealth. There is a natural tendancy for the wealthy to grow more wealthy, and the poor to grow more poor. Hence the power-law distribution of wealth observed in every society throughout the history of man, not to mention in the other natural systems.
I assume by DB you mean the Deutsche Burschenschaft, which still includes the majority of fraternities not just the ones that duel. You are correct that many left, but that was not because the DB moved to the right it was more that generally society became more and more critical. The same fraternities did not have any issues for many years that several of the prominent members fraternities of DB had Neonazis in key roles.
To give a taste of the views held by many fraternities. Most (90%) do not allow women members, many do not allow members from migrant backgrounds (and the ones that changed only did so in the last 10 years or so). When Germany still had military service (technically it's just "paused"), most fraternities did not allow members who had done "Zivildienst" which is the substitute where you work in hospitals, retirement homes...
I have long maintained that suburban sprawl has be America's worst problem and also worst export.
Everything about the American suburban dream and low-density housing is unsustainable.

High density pockets with shared public spaces is not only more efficient, but IMO, also a lot more effective at building community and giving character to an area.

The worst part is the wealthy in developing nations also gravitate towards US style urban plans, because that is what is sold as 'high class', often with hilariously depressing effects. On the other hand, every single peer that works in urban design has found consensus in a collective dislike for US suburbs as both inefficient and lifeless.

"No, it's not GCC's fault / doing something weird." :)

But, yes. Edited to clarify.

FWIW this isn't a new problem either. If you wrote some C code in the 90ies using misaligned pointers, and then tried porting it to, say, a DEC Alpha, you'd get a SIGBUS in your face on first dereferencing such a pointer.
Yeah, I understood what we were talking about – sorry for not being more clear in my reply earlier.

When you said that putting the closing bracket on the same line wouldn't work because of the "lack of Paredit-style editor support" for C-like languages, I thought you meant that the Paredit-style plugins wouldn't work well with/support C-like languages. That struck me as odd, because I use Smartparens when writing Rust, and it works just as well as it does when I write a lisp/scheme. In particular, it handles parens, square brackets, curly braces, and angle brackets just fine (and it even distinguishes between a single quote that's used to start a character literal (which should be paired) and a single quote that indicates a lifetime label (which should not))[0]. I could easily use it to write Rust with closing braces on the same line; the only reason I don't is because it's not the common style in that community.

Based on your last comment, I now understand that you're not saying Paredit-style plugins don't _work_ with C-like languages. You're saying that most programmers who write in those languages don't use those plugins. Is that right? If so, I agree that they aren't widely used and that it'd be hard for anyone to use the formatting style above without adopting a plugin.

[0]: The only thing Smartparens fails to handle is that it does not recognize that a pipe character is a pair when delimiting the arguments for a closure. I'm sure I could fix either Smartparens or rust-mode to fix that issue but so far I haven't been annoyed enough to bother.

[Edited to add a missing close-paren, fittingly enough.]
Okay, that’s a much smaller concern.
It literally cannot. The function in the linked article, that takes two pointers, must be compiled in isolation. If it needs to depend on alignment or overlapping, it needs to emit code to check it. And the standard does not require it to, nor do typical users want that.

It's true that fancy tricks like LTO can make that kind of behavior visible to the optimizer, but the standard predates that kind of magic by several decades.
Aimbots work in LoL too, there are champs that are balanced around lots of skill shots (Xerath) who you’d see hitting every single shot all game. There’s also a lot of scripting, both for account leveling or just to automate boring parts of the game.

Aspects of human nature are not evenly distributed throughout the population. For example, psychopaths have a very different value system compared to other people. Societies with psychopaths in charge of things reflect the values of the psychopath (a pathocracy). We can put people in charge who have a more even distribution of human emotions.
It's yet another problem that relies on each individual to make decisions that benefit the whole.
Which is why counties should tie property taxes to infrastructure costs.

You want to live in a sprawled out suburb where there's a low ratio of taxpayer/mile of infrastructure? You're free to do so, but expect to pay a higher share of the infrastructure costs to do so.

Also, the budget set aside for infrastructure projects should do a much better job of allocating future tax revenue towards maintaining it over time. Right now, the cost analysis of these projects is way too focused on what it'll cost to build it, and then maintaining it is left up to future planners to figure out.

Every project must have a guaranteed tax revenue percentage exclusively set aside towards maintaining it going forward.
This site/magazine/think-tank/whatever has told the same story for years ... certainly there are case studies that they would cite as following their ideas if those were succeeding somewhere? Barring evidence and scientific trials, aren't these ravings from a group of malcontents?

Don't know why people downvoted you. The intended interpretation was "if gcc, must be 5.1+", but I can see how it might be misunderstood as it was written.

The readme was updated and now reads

> folly supports gcc (5.1+), clang, or MSVC. It should run on Linux (x86-32, x86-64, and ARM), iOS, macOS, and Windows (x86-64). The CMake build is only tested on some of these platforms; at a minimum, we aim to support macOS and Linux (on the latest Ubuntu LTS release or newer.)

folly is used in FB opensource projects on Windows, macOS, and Linux (e.g. watchman) and Android and iOS (React Native, though that might not include the whole library.)
Um, no, the deaths-per-capita can't decrease unless people are being resurrected. The rate of increase can slow, but the Johns Hopkins data doesn't even show that happening (looking at new deaths/wk). Although it does show the acceleration declining, and it's possible the rate of increase is flattening out this week. If so, then Sweden's per-capita death rate will be increasing by 6%/day.

The chart you linked to bears that out. As itself says, it's excluding estimated delays from the last 7 days, so the last really solid numbers are up to April 10th. Everything before that is increasing exponentially. Even if we assume the backlog has stopped increasing (blue bars getting bigger), which is what the grey estimates are based upon, then Sweden is still getting another 70 or so deaths per day, which means the per-capita death rate is going up by 7/million every day.
I love that you released a fully functional free version, I think you can release a separate [pro] version now that would somehow replace your lock screen with these awesome visuals.

Except filesystems like ZFS are having issues on these SMR Reds during resilvers (rebuilds) because SMR slows down so much.
There is also generally less traffic and buried utilities under suburban and rural roads, which decreases maintenance costs.
> pro and enterprise territory

This doesn't change the fact that enterprise customers are equally screwed by DMSMR drives.

Adding insult to injury is that those disguised SMR (DMSMR) drives were made with very intention to sell "unsalable" SMR drives to Windows users.
To be fair, rural roads are almost always heavily subsidized from higher levels of government. The sparsely used road users aren’t bearing the full cost.

> Really?

The programming language industry, yes. There was a marked shift towards simplicity away from silly whimsy. The extreme example is Go.
For the stuff I'm doing (image processing), indirect GL is not an option.
> Are the disk vendors publishing performance metrics that are being violated by the use of SMR technology?

Not really, no. SMR drives overlays data on top of each other, like "shingles" on a typical American roof.

As such, whenever an SMR drive writes data, it must read the data "underneath" the current spot, rewrite the "underneath" data, and then lay the new data on top of it.

SMR drives are great for archives (write once, read many). But they're pretty much useless to the typical consumer. SMR drives should be avoided if you're building your own computer.

I think this makes the mistake of thinking there is such a thing as a global infection rate. There are instead a couple of hundred separate epidemics, each with its own R0 and trajectory.

It’s also dangerously wrong, but human nature, to look at the current state of epidemics and project their future state. Epidemics that have been suppressed rather than extinguished resemble unstable explosives. Just because they’re sitting there nicely today doesn’t mean they won’t explode 3 seconds from now.
This is not true in Raku: whichever way you leave a subroutine, the returned value will be checked against the return constraint. And throw if that fails.

More generally, you can specify KEEP and UNDO phasers in a block, that will fire whether the block is left successfully or not. So a typical usage would be `UNDO $dbh.rollback`.

>This seems mostly useful for laptops with both integrated and discrete GPUs but no extra monitor output and for non-fullscreen 3D on desktops, since for fullscreen 3D on desktop you can just run a second cable to the monitor, which will be faster and allows the guest to drive monitor sync.

i've been doing it for years (albeit with qemu), even with additional monitors available.

It's nice to keep your workflow where you want it. I use a unix-alike OS nearly always, but work will inevitably pull me into a windows software that'll bitch about GPU acceleration (say.. autodesk fusion) even if it doesn't need it for the task.

It's nice to keep that window where I want it. Sure, I loses sync/cec stuff, but I can drag that window across my entire workspace of monitors, and that's pretty powerful when you're stuck in a VM for a single piece of software.

When I use a VM for gaming, that's when I run the GPU by itself to a separate monitor. Gaming VMs are ran weirdly anyway -- it'd probably have access to an entire block device rather than some VDI equivalent, PCI access, etc. That's more like just running two computers off of one mainboard at that point; not much to keep isolation sanitary.
I think Strongtowns would argue that cities are taking on infrastructure debt — that Seattle should be spending far more than $150-200m. The cost could be somewhat visible in the short term with more potholes or whatever, but probably becomes most striking when there are major infrastructure failures like the I-35W bridge or the Genoa Bridge.

If you take your assumptions on face (and I think some might be off, but I'm not expert), we're saying that homeowners should think of the cost of repaving roads as on par with replacing a roof. I don't think most people think this way.
> Living through the coronavirus pandemic might be changing that due to heightened isolation and stress, influencing the content of dreams and allowing some dreamers to remember more of them.

A related issue: insomnia. About once per week in the past month I get up around 3 or 4 (often after a vivid dream) and can't get back to sleep as my mind starts racing, not specifically about COVID but about other things going on that have been impacted by COVID, such as kids and work. After about an hour I give up, get my laptop, and start to do some work.

The dreams that I am able to remember are more vivid, and go beyond the reoccurring dreams that I've had for years. One recent dream: I am in a British manor house, being guided by the owner or host to look at some displays of art or very old, ornate machines. At one point he started singing in an almost operatic voice, but I can't remember the song. While I haven't ever been to such a place, I was reading about such a house in Wikipedia the day before (Apethorpe, the favored retreat of Charles I) but I did not know what the contents of that house were, or where my dream brain came up with displays of art or ornate machinery.

Seattle is urban and has 50% higher population than KC in 25% of the area. Strongtowns (despite its ironic name), is pro-city and anti-town. The OP article is quite clear about this, as it argues against KC spreading into suburban sprawl.

You'd need an example of a suburb or exurb to prove your point.
No, it's not a fact!

We don't run massive test and trace programs against cold viruses because they are relatively less harmful. We easily have the resources to run a massive test, trace, isolate and support program against COVID-19, and we can eradicate it using those methods.

And if a vaccine comes out before suppression is complete, so much the better.

The fact that we have only ever eradicated a pandemic by using vaccines is no reason to not try doing it without one. It's very hard to understand why people aren't screaming to spend a few hundred billion dollars to start doing this right now, as the payoff is essentially incalculable.

No, you’re still shifting the goalposts.

The point of “flattening the curve” is not — and was never — to reduce the area under the curve. This is a contagious respiratory virus, and it’s going to spread until there is herd immunity. Maybe there will be a vaccine in 12-18 months. Maybe not. But regardless, we can’t go on for that long with over 30% of society out of work.

Most people are going to get this virus. If you don’t understand that, you are scientifically illiterate. You are pushing on the ocean to prevent the tide.

Trying to forestall the inevitable by keeping us all locked in our homes will inflict such massive economic and social collateral damage that it’s simply unthinkable. We won’t stop the virus, and we’ll burn down our society trying.

Split online radios into mp3s and listen online (.NET)
I wrote this website in my free time to "rip" online radios. It basically listens to online radios (user provides the URL), if the metadata has changed, it knows song has changed and it yields the mp3 audio file right to 1) the user browser or 2) FTPs to their FTP server. It can also remove advertisements using a simple regex against metadata.

It does not store the audio internally and it's all open source

I wrote this website to be able to listen to my few of my favorite online radio simultaneously without an advertisement.

I was wondering if I can some feedback. This is my weekend project.
