The design doc doesn't say "simple", it says "efficient".

I think "simpler" would have been a stronger argument. While using <> would make the parser more complex, I have a hard time seeing that making a meaningful performance difference in a compilation context. Maybe if you're parsing a lot of Go without actually compiling it, but that doesn't seem like a use case to optimize for.
That doesn't sound like much of a discount, what, 5%?

Without moving, I got 40% off my rent for six months in the middle of London. I'd encourage tenants who haven't asked for a discount yet to do so.
Yeah. I work for a company that's pretty remote-friendly and I've been effectively remote for a while even though I'm officially in an office (though without a desk). So most of us wouldn't really worry too much about moving to a location that wasn't commute-friendly any longer.

But I see concern if you're with someone that hasn't really made any statements or really provided any indications beyond "for the duration of the emergency."
Would you consider adding a feature to clear past metrics from the charts on /updates? I signed up for the SUS 2018 course with a startup that looked very different from my current project, so my metrics these days look like a bunch of primary-colored snakes chasing some dots.
You have to have fully internalized those concepts already for that explanation to be useful. So it's good for people who already have a somewhat solid mathematical foundation and working knowledge.

For it to be useful to a layperson, you'll need to provide concrete examples and more of an explanation of each concept. Or, if you want to help people who are visual learners, something like a triangle.
I think I agree with you, but this argument seems like a pretty arbitrary line.

How is saying "yes we can scale" when you're not sure if you can, aren't you essentially implying that you have the infrastructure to deliver on that promise? And if you don't actually have that infrastructure yet/built/proven, then you're essentially selling a feature that doesn't exist.

It's shades of grey from lying about E2EE, but seems pretty similar imo
> Tons of kids look up to legitimate, wealthy people who say "investing is the best thing for your future"

This is fair, but if you continue to listen to those same people, you'll hear them say "put your money in VTSAX and forget about it for 30 years", not "go trade options".
This has ethical reprecussions on the news ecosystem because whichever keywords/mentions that Facebook dictates as political will be targeted by news organizations to avoid.

These organizations will strip normal news of any political connotations which is frightening because the news, although mostly a pile of noise today, is supposed to have signals to keep democracies in line by design.
France is widely offering 1 Gbps symmetric fiber in major cities. The 3 major ISP offer the same unique package for 35e a month with internet and phone and TV, not negotiable. That's gigabit fiber if your home is in a area covered by fiber.

Objective-C zero-initializes ivars, and it's common to rely on this. The big problem is that you still need to test that code is doing the right thing when it encounters a nil state.

If you define away the zero states completely with sum types, code flow is completely accounted for at compile time, and entire categories of "oops, that shouldn't be nil right now" bugs simply don't exist. On Apple platforms, this is a major reason to use Swift instead of Objective-C.

I haven't used Go, only read some code occasionally; perhaps there's some other difference here that makes this a nonissue. But it sure looks like it has the same set of problems.
> Every single bad thing we've dealt with since 2010 has been started or exacerbated

I think this is a difficult to argue claim because exacerbated could be defined so broadly as to fit any post on social media.

> 4chan is bad, but go to Twitter's company page and look at the organizations they are working with on their policies. Every single one is a progressive, special interest group.

And yet Twitter has struggled with whether to ban actual, self-avowed neo-Nazis. No, not the ones that users call Nazis, but the folks who call themselves that. If Twitter and other social media are too alike to 4chan, it seems to me they have a lot further to go than just put some "progressive special interest groups" on their policy boards.

JK Rowling is welcome to air her views on the platform and users are able to express their disdain. That's just culture, y'know?

The idea that "conservative" voices are being censored when the largest news station on the planet is a mouthpiece for "conservatives" and the 9 out 10 of the most shared articles on Facebook come from "conservative" sources is the most laughable argument. I seriously can not wrap my head around any argument being made about "free speech" and platforms like YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter.

We learned forever ago from that allowing forums to go unmoderated leads to the absolute worst people taking over that forum. There is no proof, and there has never been any proof that the only thing needed to make abhorrent ideas go away is to expose the people that have those ideas and shame them. It is an idealist trope that humanity is overwhelmingly good and willing to do good things when reality has told us time and again that is not the truth.
I'm surprised we haven't seen more plug-in hybrids.

A plug-in hybrid is essentially an EV for most people's daily commute, but still has an ICE to relieve range anxiety on road trips. And since the batteries are small, they can be recharged overnight easily without installing a charging port. You can charge from a standard household 120v outlet.

Now if only more manufacturers making EVs and hybrids would stop putting the batteries in the @#$%ing trunk and follow Tesla's lead in putting them in the floor of the car.

If you really believe that, why did you feel the need to hide your identity behind the anonymity of a throwaway account before you were comfortable expressing that opinion? Could it be that you know that it's not actually true, that in your heart of hearts you know that "Democrat party" is a Republican dog whistle? That it is offensive? Because it is.

>Coming from a pure math background, I have to respectfully disagree.

Coming from an engineering background, I have to respectfully disagree.

What matters to me most with Math is its predictive power

When a theorem is proven, it is something I can build on: it won't crumble, and any edifice resting on that foundation is guaranteed to be stable.

Whether I am convinced at a gut level that the proposition is true is basically poetry and matters very little.

If the four color theorem was proven by machines, it actually is better than if a bunch of humans feel good about the proof, the likelihood of it delivering predictable behavior is all that matters, and for this I trust the machine way more that a bunch of poets feeling good about themselves.

UK Health minister says app should roll out by winter
It is, except there seems to be a sweet spot in medium sized towns where commutes/groceries/activities are all close so no/less driving. If you get too small though you go back to everything being 45 min drive away again like being in the suburbs of a city which is not at all sustainable.
The median US household income is $63k/year. $5k/month would take the entirety of the pre-tax median income.

It's a very interesting time in the real estate market. NYC has seen a lot of development over a fairly long amount of time, a lot of it higher end. The city has seen growth for 30 years in terms of population growth, tax base growth, etc. Can something continue to go up forever?

My anecdotal experience lately has been there is a general mood among people (especially people who make a good living) that it's time to get out; that it has been for awhile due to unrealistic prices and now the civil unrest and potential for a longer term increase in crime as police forces are gutted, similar to the 70's and 80's - "the good ol' bad days".

It's hard to tell if it's pure emotion and frustration right now or the beginnings of a larger trend, like in the mid-60's when many well-to-do people started to abandon cities. A couple real estate agents I know outside the city have said this has been the busiest they've ever been with clients moving out of the city. However, because they were more or less shut down for 2 months it could be just a backlog. Difficult to assess right now.

In my personal opinion, the prices for NYC got to absurd levels. It's not why I moved out (wanted space and less density and wasn't using the parts of the city that make living in it worth it) but it certainly wasn't an argument to stay. A correction is needed. I'm sure policing will change dramatically but I don't believe that means more crime has to happen. Reallocating funds for other ways of deterring and avoiding crime are possible. However, NYC's political history makes me skeptic.

My biggest fear for that city is that over the next few years, a lot of their tax base (the people that actually pay taxes) will leave. And because they'll work from home they won't have to pay taxes to NY like a lot of people in Connecticut and New Jersey have. It's not just the rents in NYC that are insane, the taxes are too. The value was you were paying to live in the most culturally relevant city on Earth that had decent services and was extremely safe.

> She and her roommate signed a lease on a two-bedroom apartment in the West Village for $4,995 a month.

I struggle to believe that there are two bedroom apartments that have that kind of demand/value outside of an inflated circumstance.

I agree with what you're saying, but I'd like to note, I'm not a professional trader or anything. All the other platforms that I'm using mentioned (Tastyworks, Schwab) are available to retail investors and are targeting the same non-broker segment.

Could the UI be better? Probably. My point isn't to absolve them here, it's just to point out that this same issue exists across most of the platforms. That leads me to believe that, while the UI may have contributed, it's not the root cause of the issue.
My point was that a lot of those trendy bars, restaurants, etc. may no longer exist if a lot of people who can afford to move away. A lot of the elements of city life in say NYC or Boston in the 1990s were a lot different from today.

But, to your point, yeah a return to a more gritty and bohemian version of urban life would be appealing to some.
Just a word of caution as someone who has went from D.C. to small town: It can also be not so good if you come with your previous political beliefs. Big coastal city politics are _very_ unpopular in smaller towns (not here to discuss the merits, just stating the reality). You won't make very many friends. Smaller towns don't have the same issues big cities do, so naturally it will require a different approach and way of thinking.
> Maybe not so good for those who were especially attached to either the vibrant city life or busy office life.

I don't understand this reasoning. Was city life not vibrant when rents were 1/3rd the price?

If anything, "hypergentrification" tends to have a sterilizing effect on city life.

To be honest I'm kinda looking forward to it. Nothing against HENRYs (High earners, not rich yet)... but their "cultural tastes" are both expensive and not for everyone.
Not gigabit upload, but I got close at 700Mbps, and some cable providers offer gigabit upload speeds in some regions, cogeco for example offers gigabit symmetrical cable in Trois-Rivières.

How do they handle the server load when they have so many concurrent connections
One benefit I've found with error-enums is just being aware of all the possible errors that can occur. You're right: 95% of the time you can't do anything except log/retry. But that 5% of the time become runtime bugs which are a massive pain. It's really nice when that is automatically surfaced for you at development time.
Apple does a much better job in keeping devices alive for longer than Android OEMs in general. Having full control over hardware and software and focusing on few devices helps there.

In Android land, this is unfortunately different. Longevity stands and falls (mostly the latter) with the (lack of) support of the chipset vendors such as Qualcomm and Mediatek. If they stop supporting a chipset, all devices built on them can not be properly supported anymore.

Just think of all of the unreported and unfixed hardware and software vulnerabilities in proprietary components. It is impossible to maintain a device without the chipset vendor's involvement. Apple, on the other hand, is its own chipset vendor.

The Android supply chain needs a drastic make-over to come anywhere near that.
LOL say's California! I have seen steady rent prices and decreasing housing prices.
An array is a variable that is declared to contain sequential data (using square brackets and the desired number of elements). It is immutable. A pointer is a mutable variable that can be made to point to anything, and it can be used to reference an array or any of its elements. These are different concepts, although the language allows a lot of operations in common between them.
I don't really care about the companies here, just on what is effective. Would you rather have a handful of companies put a moratorium on selling to facial recognition tech to governments or state and local ordinances banning their use no matter what company the tech is from?
> Model 3 SR+ goes 250 miles.

I can't speak for the Bolt or Leaf, but I can tell you that the stated range of my Model 3 Performance (299 miles) is not accurate.

Sure, I can probably go 299 miles on a full charge if I'm going 55 mph with the climate controls off, but if I'm going 75 mph with the heat running because it's 35F outside, the actual range is closer to 230 miles.

I imagine the Model 3 SR+ is the same way. Probably only really ~200-220 miles in real-world conditions.

This is interesting, immediately before Covid-19 hit NYC I moved to mid-town Manhattan in early March.

Compared to Boston (where I'd previously lived for about 7 years) I was stunned how affordable (with roommates) luxury housing was, at least during "off-season".

For the master suite in a unit with a clear view of the Hudson and the USS Intrepid (I actually had a great view of the USS Comfort while it was in port) I only pay $1900/mo. with free gym perks, laundry in unit, AC, with brand new construction standards (building was constructed in 2018). It's not cheap, but by NYC standards when correcting for the quality of the building / building's I've lived in around Boston it's unparalleled.

Even if I moved to Austin TX, I'd essentially only be saving about $400/mo. to have a decent apt to myself but also be getting paid substantially less. It's going to be very interesting in a year whether I negotiate my rent down, or look for a new place to live and bargain HARD.

That said, I'm an NYC rental noob, very open to what kind of luxury rents people are seeing now in a post-covid rental environment?
Someone else answered, but literally the OK sign with your hand (index and thumb touching) is supposed to represent the letter W (the three fingers splayed make a sort of W I guess) and the letter P (I don't see it either). Which is supposed to mean "white power."

This is a meme completely generated by online pranksters, but some/many left leaning activist types take it EXTREMELY seriously. For examples [1] [2] [3]. There are tons of things like this (I mentioned hawaiian shirts being one of the latest); they're mostly generated as pranks on imageboards, and as far as I can tell, they're designed to discredit humorless leftists, rather than actually transmit high frequency right wing brainwashing messages. Imagine being a normal person who makes the OK sign, or wonders out loud why it isn't OK to be white and is condemned as an evil nazi by .... "activists" for the full effect. I mean, the OK sign has been used for assent for ... what? 2500 years?

I'll let you figure out lolcow on your own.

One thing I've been having trouble with as I'm learning math is to coalesce new concepts into a broader context. When learning things I usually assume there's a tree of knowledge that I can travel back up, but with math it seems like a tangled graph of concepts which can be grouped into many different permutations to form different theories, also it's not entirely clear at what level of abstraction one should stop digging.
I'm beyond lost.

> In most languages and societies in Europe and Asia people don't use words like "fight", "war", "kill" so easily or as euphemisms.

Not sure about Asia, but over here in Europe some politicians leaning far right often use the above military words. But that comes to no surprise given the mindset.
Zoom’s engineering team is based in the PRC. This opens them up to pressure from the dictatorship which has made large scale industrial espionage a public policy goal. Somebody is listening, and likely transcribing, every call at organizations of interest. The source code, public statements, etc are irrelevant; if the PLA wants a Chinese national in China to do something, they will. The penalties for noncompliance are terrifying.

American gun manufacturers, like pretty much any other manufacturer, can indeed be sued if their product is defective. For example: Remington has caught a lot of heat for defective triggers in their Model 700 series rifles.

When people say American gun manufacturers can't be sued, they're talking about the PLCAA, which shields gun manufacturers from lawsuits concerning guns they made being used in crimes. The PLCAA does not prevent them from being sued for defective products.

C++ and Rust require extra disambiguating syntax in some contexts (C++ the `foo.template bar<T>()` syntax, Rust the "superfish operator" `foo.bar::<T>()`. Java works around the problem by awkwardly putting the generic argument list in front of the method name (`foo.<T>bar()`). I don't know about C#.
I understand. If you don't like it, buy puts.
The PLAs on the Z80 and 6502 aren't user programmable, but had their functions fixed in the mask just like regular logic or a mask ROM would be.

Talking about the PLAs in these processors versus ucode ROM, the big difference is that in a PLA, typically several lines are enabled at a time. In contrast a ROM will only have one line active at a time with an address decoder sitting in front of it.

You absolutely could use a microcode ROM in the place of how these chips use their PLAs, it'd just take more die area.

You can see this logic/data equivalence in other places of hardware design too. For instance how FPGAs are a sea of SRAM, but are equivalent to standard cell chips. FPGAs are just slower, larger, and easier to modify.
> Under the agreement, all articles with a UC corresponding author published in more than 2,700 of Springer Nature’s journals will be open access by default, with the UC Libraries paying a portion of the open access fee on behalf of all authors.

So, only the most widely-distributed papers will be "open access", and then only if the authors cough up an "open access fee"? Doesn't sound very open to me.
