I feel this is very very wrong and damaging, I'd like to make sure anyone reading this comment has a balancing comment to read against it, mainly about the pitch thing. The kind of thing I wish I'd been able to read 10 years ago.

First, you're probably not tone deaf. If you can differentiate between one note and a note a semitone away, you've got enough pitch to sing. If you can watch two youtube videos, think one sounds good and one sounds bad, you've got enough pitch to sing.

I spent a long time worrying about this because I struggled with pitch a lot, and then even though I could eventually (with a lot of adjustment) get my voice to make a sound at the same pitch as a piano key, it didn't sound "right" or "good". Even though the tuner told me i was right on it. Also the pitch always seemed different inside my head to listening back to it.

In the end it turns out it's all about frequencies. Your voice is making a whole bunch of them when you vocalise, it's not just a simple sine wave, and these resonate at different places, and sound different inside your head (to you) and outside (to everyone else). When I had the pitch issues, I actually mainly had placement issues. Good placement feels like cutting off the lower half of my voice, but is pretty much just you making the right frequencies and more importantly avoiding making the wrong ones. To a natural singer this probably sounds like crazy talk, but to someone who always sounded bad, this is life-changing.

So yeah, ignore the parent comment, find a good teacher who started from nothing and can teach you placement (I still recommend https://bohemianvocalstudio.com/), and practise like crazy. You'll never look back.
As I suspected, all points that somebody is luring people to go out and get infected or being "culled" by other means.

The only chance to be reelected in November would be to avoid having a big second wave in winter, and the only way to avoid this is either to find a cure or to accelerate the process so people will lose the sense of danger, take more risks and will start dying more faster or recovering more faster, so the second wave never happens.

Those options you gave are GCC-specific.

I don't know of a mature Z80 compiler that supports LTO.

The thread at this point is on the topic of "so your compiler doesn't support LTO, how can we 80/20 our way to the same semantics"
> Why don't you think the 2A belongs in a modern world?

The forgotten premise of the 2A is that it would prevent tyranny by providing the tools so that the citizenry could demand that the government not form permanent external or internal security services beyond what was necessary for a minimal tripwire and training cadre force that would form the nucleus of an at-need force that would be sized up as situations presented with the militia and it's privately-owned arms. Liberty wasn't guaranteed by permitting the general citizeney arms to fight the central government at need, but by providing the tools so that the citizens could use the government to meet their security needs while keeping the general citizenry and not a distinct and separate peofessional warrior group as the necessary and essential component of the government providing that function.

The development of standing armies scaled to fight major wars rather than serve as tripwire and cadre forces, professional paramilitary law enforcement services, the professionalization of not just standing military forces but even the ready reserves, culminating in the all-volunteer force, have all rendered that design outdated.

The 2A might conceivably serve it's function in a modern world, but not in a country where the citizenry has accepted the changes the US has since roughly the second quarter of the 19th Century which have completely eradicated it's fundamental premise.
Also there's the adaptability aspect. For manual controls you'd need a ton of physical controls and you need the astronauts to know them by heart. With a screen that has an adaptable interface it's much easier UX on the astronaut as the controls increase. Also I'm sure ground control can push an emergency update if need be where you wouldn't quite have that luxury with manual controls.
A friend of mine recently pointed out that until this point, we didn’t generally or commonly understand pandemic as a real possibility (even if we did historically & scientifically). The same is true for nuclear weapons.

If you were to issue certs for short durations, and also maintain a calendar of cert expiry, those certs could be renewed in a timely manner.

In other scenarios where one would want to issue fresh certificates (receiving Ops control from other orgs, credentials refresh for what ever reason), one can still do so without waiting for the current certificates to expire.
Fantastic Skydiving vehicle.. If you can get 9 people (+ gear) 12'000ft on a 30 minutes flight, then you can glide all the way down for the next load. at $6 worth of fuel it would be a game changer.
I read those two links. If I ignore some of the points that were valid 10 years ago but not anymore (e.g., there's now stack), and if I ignore some of the personal anecdotes, I come away feeling like much of what is said is not necessarily wrong but is nevertheless an exceptionally negative take. I think you can make almost any tool sound broken and unusable if you use nasty enough and strong enough language about a few examples.

Also, there really is very little substance behind the actual language criticism. It's hard to make a blanket statement that typeclasses are "overkill"; they seem to be showing up all over the place in new languages. Similarly, type annotations are incredibly useful and are also showing up all over the place these days outside of Haskell-land. The point on non-strict evaluation is by far the strongest and most legitimate.

Did Congress make a respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof?

These rules may ultimately be ruled unconstitutional but there’s nothing pretty clear about the incorporation doctrine.
Yeah, it's a newer concept for the compiler space (it relies on having a lot of compiler host memory, more than you might think), and I'm not sure that the more niche compilers have had time to get this feature yet.

Has anyone squared the circle on why food prices are rising in spite of collapsed restaurant demand? I understand the constraints around meat packing (although given the monopolies in meat production, I’m still a little skeptical that it’s all based in reality), but why other goods?

I thought they were both designed by Hamilton Standard. If not, my bad. I don't think I'd want to stick up for any of the older suits as being aesthetically, or much more importantly, functionally, being as good as they should have been.

Of all the possible critiques of SpaceX, an attack on the new space suits is a genuinely weird one.
Depends on how your terminal is set up. Often times folks remap those keys and that prevents `fzf` from receiving them. If that’s the case, try a new terminal emulator as an experiment.
I don't understand how SpaceX is "commercial." As I understand it, they exist because the US Government wants to have a space program. Yes, they can launch satellites, but how many for-profit non-state entities can use these things?
It seems like SpaceX is possible because there are governments out there with money to burn.
I get the sense that a lot of the distinction is that at SpaceX he has a by-all-accounts extremely competent lieutenant in Gwynne Shotwell running the day-to-day operations and probably, to some extent, helping keep him grounded, whereas it has always seemed like there's been a bit of a non-Elon leadership vacuum at the top at Tesla. To the extent that there has been other top management, they don't seem to last that long, and seem to have trouble earning his trust, which I imagine makes challenging his nuttier ideas harder to do.
Nope, way less than that. A single expendable rocket may have that margin, although I'd expect even better. Accounting for 5 flight of a si glen booster and capsule, that cost drops precipitously to at least 60-70% percent savings.
> All that stuff about types and categories and monads and so on is maths too.

I think the question he's asking is: What papers have been published in math journals where the work was done in Haskell? Which mathematicians use Haskell to do mathematics work?
You NEED to find a vocal coach. At least for the first few months. If you try and learn through online courses, you will never learn what you're doing wrong.

Worse, without the feedback of a teacher, you can easily neglect a major weakness, develop a bad habit without knowing it, or even destroy your vocal chords.

Quit seeing the vocal coach if it's too expensive and you're confident you can do the exercises on your own

I also encourage everyone reading this to try and learn singing. It's surprising what even a month of practice can do to your voice.

I truly believe that "bad singers" don't exist.
As a general rule, I am all for defining specific aliases of fundamental types, type-safely if possible. I don't think this changes my argument materially, though. Real world applications of programming always come down to processing data of known, concrete types at some point. And at that point, all the power you get from saying things like there's only one possible implementation of a function f :: a -> a immediately go out of the window, because you don't have a value of type a, you have a value of type SomeConcreteTypeThatIKnowThingsAbout.

In my experience, though of course yours may differ, there are very often still many plausibly correct implementations of functions working with those types and many ways to combine them that might make sense and that would satisfy the type checker. The idea that specifying the types alone is a viable substitute for proper documentation of the real meaning of the functions just falls apart at that point.
SpaceX is selling Crew Dragon to others. There are already bought flights brokered for space tourists, and Tom Cruise is going to be filming a movie in space too.
VMware now supports Hyper-V mode
Timsort is not in place, and is essentially similar to mergesort. Most libraries use quicksort for sorting primatives, so it's the right thing to compare to.
Your logic is thus

1. 80% of fatal dog attacks are by pit bulls.

This is complete nonsense from dogsbite.org actually nobody tracks this. This "statistic" is at best comprised by trying to compile news articles that notoriously misidentify any large breed mutt responsible for attacks as pit bulls.

2. If 80% of fatal are attacks are caused by pit bulls and negligent owners were the cause of attacks then 80% of owners must be negligent.

3. 80% of owners being negligent is an absurd conclusion thus the conclusion that bites are largely caused by negligent owners must be false.

Premise 2 is the result of what I like to call number gluing. To explicate people have 2 entities which they can attach a numerical identity to that seem related so people just mentally stick them together instead of doing the mathematical reasoning to figure out how the 2 relate. It's not that they don't "exactly" relate how you said they do they don't relate AT ALL. With no other numbers its entirely impossible to reason about which portion of owners are negligent or even how their average negligence relates to owners of say rottweilers and dobermans. There are 3.6 million pit bulls in the US and 40 people are killed annually. Even if every fatality was caused by a pit bull we could conclude from that fact that 1 in a million pit bull owners are negligent. The prior poster wasn't distracting from your argument he demolished it like a bulldozer.

Is coffee bad for you, And what real research has to say
> This sounds like inflation.

General inflation would, by definition, extend beyond food prices.

Of course, it is, by definition, inflation in that specific sector.

> Didn't the economics say there wouldn't be any/much as a result of printing so much money?

And there isn't much sign of general inflation, which is what you'd expect if the key driver were money supply.
Yes. We are violently agreeing
That's a different efficiency comparison.

You are correct that for a given type of plane, efficiency is worse for father distances. When comparing battery vs. hydrocarbon-fueled planes, however, hydrocarbon does relatively better the longer the distance, for the reasons discussed above. Battery-powered planes may soon be practical for regional short-haul flights but they're not going to be competing on transatlantic routes anytime soon.

Well, I was there, and I say it wasn't. "Double digit inflation" seems like a giveaway that you at best have skimmed the history. Inflation was ultra high very briefly very early in the 80s. Do you know the name Volcker?

Japanese cars became mainstream. People started to become interested in anime. Nobody remembers or noticed what Reagan said, unless the hivemind/AI decides to resurrect it now and pound cherry picked things into our heads until we assent that Eurasia was always at war with Eastasia.

You can debate until you turn blue, but it's lazy revisionism.
It's such a missed opportunity, though.

I think that a big problem with SCOTUS as it stands today, is that a simple majority of judges is sufficient to decide profound matters of constitutionality. But if the decision is 5:4, or even 6:3 - if there are so many dissenters - shouldn't this be taken as prima facie evidence that the constitution is ambiguous on the issue, and needs to be disambiguated?

Imagine for a moment that any Supreme Court decision that causes such a split, automatically triggers the constitutional amendment process. And for every substantially different court opinion, the judges should come up with verbiage for an amendment that, if ratified, would result in them all joining that opinion. Whichever one passes, you have both your decision, and the constitution is actually updated to reflect it. If no amendment passes, then simple majority still decides, as today - but it doesn't set a binding precedent on the question of constitutionality.
What program was used to create the dependency diagrams? And is there some more general introduction for using this sort of dependency analysis for low level optimizations?
Flying is a fully regulated industry worldwide. Modular industry standard swappable batteries are achingly simple but so is regulated seat pitch and look how likely that is.

That's unrelated (Starship, not Crewed Dragon).

There are 4 unnamed tourists set to fly next year. Tom Cruise is also in negotiations to film in space using Crewed Dragon, which would presumably involve at minimum Mr. Cruise plus a cameraman.
I've been researching this a lot and I've read that taking D3 without Magnesium can do this. That is, taking the D3 might have tipped you into a Mg defficency. That's why D3 is taken with Mg, Ca, K and Vitamin K2. They all work together.

Did the supplement you took include those, or at least Mg?
The people demonstrating aren’t the same as the people looting. Do you truly believe they are?
One reason is that the food supply system is comprised of retail and commercial sectors. The commercial demand collapsed as restaurants & institutions closed, while the demand at the retail level skyrocketed when people panic-shopped.

The packaging needs of the two sectors are different - retail packaging must have the nutrition & ingredients panels on it, while commercial packaging would typically only have it on the carton.
True, when I think of loan I was thinking more along the lines of "let a friend take it home", not loans that require colocation. Definitely agree with you on the complexity— some of my personal favorites are how CA and the Feds measure the lengths of guns completely differently, leading to much confusion. And of course there's 3 or 4 different definitions of what it means to "possess" a gun, which depend a lot on the context

While a good idea in theory, I feel like this would be pointless in practice, because none of the amendments would ever end up getting the supermajority of approval they'd need to pass.
Good thinking, but if I understand correctly, the javascript running the scan is running on your browser. So the scan is coming from the browser process, and both sides of the connection have IP address 127.0.0.1.

That javascript can then report back, or take other actions in your web session.

It's not a port scan in the sense of them opening a socket from their server to your computer.
That makes sense.

Seems little too obvious to exist, but people make mistakes.

It’s just that with JWT/JSE/JOSE already questionable security options that you would be extra super careful if you are using it. (Biggest flaw off the top of my head is it literally says what encryption is used with a NONE option meaning you can just switch to “none” and forge jwts to anyone that didn’t know not to accept those, second would be that they mix symmetric and asymmetric encryption options)

Kennedy Space Center is a full-day event and one of my favorites. Oh, what an awesome site they put together for all ages. And you very well might get to meet an astronaut.

It is obviously not purely a function of danger. It is a cost-benefit of danger/importance. Clearly importance is relevant to this discussion. Supermarkets are open everywhere because they are very important (vital), even though they might be a ripe vector for transmission. I would agree that on the graph of danger against importance, supermarkets are obviously going to be less dangerous and more important than church. But my point was that it's not clear where to draw the line on this graph, and even if you do have a clear line, I think church is going to be higher on the cultural importance scale than concerts or sporting events, so it could make the cut even if they do not.
You can also use an anti-fatigue mat.
Church services often involve singing and speaking loudly in confined spaces. Yet there's no evidence doing so is necessary to survive.

Proven mitigations against real threats are more important than the unprovable 'benefits' of religion. No matter how old, popular, or eloquent the source of the religion.
how about '`fzf` + `git` to melt your face'?
Yeah, it's hard to describe accurately, because it runs in the browser locally, but is delivered from whatever URL is being referenced on their site.
There's so much more demand for groceries, dairy and poultry because people aren't eating out.

There is now more pressure to produce and supply goods that are meant for in-house eating.

All the packaging and supply chain optimized for eating out has become useless and needs to be reoriented towards home eating. Until this is done on a massive scale, prices will remain high.

Also, as demand is rising for home foods, producers have a newly gained pricing power and they sure are fully utilizing it.

Also, production is low in general because of massive layoffs of farm work. Farm hands are not getting visas to come and actually harvest what farmers have been cultivating.

Altogether, the prices are rising fast and nobody knows where it'll go.
cant explain why this is happening but can confirm meat industry workers are getting boned hard. Family in indiana working at tyson plant, my family and co-workers are getting sick but still have to work.

Basically it's a choice they have to make. Go to work, risk getting sick, but make $$$ and feed family. Or you can be safe, not go out to work , but family will have no food. It's an easy choice to make because your family needs to eat.
Elon is synonymous with Tesla. Its not so obvious to me that they could survive without him, it is a consumer product after all.
