from my experience digging through Cython output: unless you type-annotate EVERYTHING C-style, Cython just uses the CPython C-API (PyObject_New, PY_INCREF, etc). so you'd have to ship all of CPython anyway... as mentioned elsewhere in the thread, that's too big for most websites

Yes. The headline was changed for that reason, making it better in at least one respect (namely less confusing for people that do not know the distinction between unemployment rate and employment population ratio), and worse in at least one respect (replacing the specific "U.S. population" with the less precise "Americans"). As I said.
> Popular Screen resolutions

Is completely wrong; Even today the most popular desktop screen resolution by a country mile is 1366x768. All the budget laptops sold in supermarkets etc. still use that resolution and most people simply can't afford to drop ~1,000 GBP/USD on the 'family computer'.

Fun fact... 1366x768 exists because it was trivial for far-east manufacturers to switch from 1024x768 4:3 to 1366x768 16:9, as the latter could still use 90% of existing LCD controller design, thus making it really cheap to switch their fabrication over.

I don't know much about Oculus - Is in not possible to use alt-app-stores?

TBH, this thing happens. look at gog vs steam vs <shall not be named>; this strategy doesn't always pay off though, consider the Nintendo console lineup (curated, small but higher quality) compared to Sony PlayStation - in the end Sony won that one, and my own belief is the reason that less curation led to some indie (not developed by Sony) gems.
first of all, if you think you are right, why not use your real github account, then discuss publicly what is your problem with disposable emails? (there are some problems definitely, but it really depends on how company is going to handle that issues, that's another topic)

it really feels you are trying to offend them by creating new github account and making commit to fight against Hey email.

secondly, he is a co-founder of company, so he is trying in anyway to keep their email reputation, why he should not? some companies might be fetching that lists automatically every week and marking as a spam every email coming from that providers, which hurts company.

regarding, disposable emails, I do think they might be used for spam or other purposes, but there could be a ways to prevent these issues, why not give a chance to company? maybe they will setup limits for disposable emails, you can create 100 for read-only (for signing up in some phishing web-sites), 10 for sending emails up to 10 per month? they will figure out. But as a community we should give them a chance.

Just show your public face, make open public discussion, so that people will decide at the end.
But, of course, what is solvable changes and/or is implementation dependent. Modelica doesn't say much on the topic of impulses. In theory, a vendor could support variable index systems along with the ability to resolve impulses. It is a conscious decision not to codify contemporary constraints on solvers/methods into the language. Of course, Sebastien Furic did quite a bit of work along the lines you are describing but he was unable to persuade the group to accept such constraints.

This is exactly what Pyodide (mentioned in the article) does, and it works great for some use cases. The problem is that downloading and wasm-compiling the entirety of CPython and all its native modules is big and slow.

A colleague of mine collected and compared a few Python-in-the-browser implementations - including Skulpt and Pyodide - with code samples and a description of the trade-offs.

You might find the write-up interesting: https://anvil.works/blog/python-in-the-browser-talk
FYI, it is by the same people who initiated the Modelica effort (Hilding Elmqvist and Martin Otter). I think part of the goal was to shed having to maintain a whole language (and the need to specify all the semantics details of such) and simply leverage a language that had macros.

I haven't really heard many updates on this in some time. I don't think it is necessarily a bad idea. But any effort along these lines takes a lot of dedicated people quite a while to make progress (as was the case with Modelica).
That's a damn shame, I visited MuDa in 2018 and found it to be a very interesting museum.

Do you have an authoritative reference for that, stating unambiguously that the plane without MCAS would fulfil all the regulatory requirements for manoeuvring stability in terms of stick force curve slope, for example during a wind-up turn?

(I agree, FWIW, that the plane would by flyable, easily in nearly all flight regimes, and carefully in some flight regimes, without MCAS. But that is not the issue at hand.)

There are practical applications for this.

Perhaps most importantly for regexp compilation, as it is a fairly common use case [1].

Some other examples I can think of: JIT compiling an eval-statement. Constructing a filter for example for a database scan. CPU based pixel shader. Etc.

A lot of code is JIT compiled, but executed only once. So this was a pretty interesting article with practical performance implications in some scenarios.

IMO, it is the news agency's responsibility to make it absolutely clear to the user what they are reading. If a majority of people come away with the wrong understanding after visiting a website, that is the website's fault. It's a clear UX problem.

Old paper newspapers accomplished this by physically having a separate section for opinion pieces. It's a harder problem when people share direct links to an article.

That said, news agencies don't try very hard. I think it's easy to argue they intentionally make it hard to differentiate. If WSJ really cared about making it clear to the user what this article was, they would have done more than hiding the word "A-hed" in a small font in the top corner.

> Today it would be considered unethical to exhibit premature babies and charge fairgoers to see them [...] have to think back to that time [...] Nowadays when new technology comes out we do randomised controlled trials. [...] the shows were a way of demonstrating the benefit of using incubators

I'll leave aside ongoing issues of wealth affecting access to trials, of pipeline latency, of high variance in quality of care, and of anticipated financials determining which innovations are pursued or not so much.

The shows were also about paying for treatment. How many people in the US today, would be eager for quality care from an "unethical" side-show clinic, rather than delaying their own care, or being bankrupted by it? What elements of your care would you opt-in to being livestreamed, if it meant you didn't have to pay for them? Free quality dental care at the mall... shown live on the big screen, with the dentist's running critique of your brushing.

There seems a recurring pattern of tuning regulatory and structural costs for some market segment, tolerating a low-profile gray or black market to serve those completely excluded, and not acknowledging the life impact on those inbetween.
> A charger is considered an accessory But because it is merely a utility for a device

Yes I understand the reasoning behind it, but I don't understand why it's not seen as a much more important feature to be able to load from anything anywhere so long as the +5V and GND pins are working, regardless of what power source and cable it is.

That there is complexity when the lightning cable and connector is used as a data transfer cable I understand. I don't understand why the charger mode isn't dumb as rocks.

ePub in general doesn't work on a Kindle (you have to convert them to mobi), but you can create your own "Kindle magazines" (don't know their exact name) using calibre.

One use case of that is that you can feed RSS feeds to your calibre's news feature and schedule them to be sent to your @kindle.com email address at a specified day / time of the week. Essentially DYI magazine filled with whatever blogs you want.
WebAssembly is compiled and executed by JavaScript though. You can create a runtime with no JS on the other hand probably for mobile. The beauty of WASM is eventually you could have it on all platforms as a way to make apps and expose API libraries to said runtime and now anyone can make apps in any language to run on WASM. So long as said language can be compiled to WASM.

You also need JS to interop back from WASM.

Forbes falls to cancel culture as it erases environmentalist's mea culpa
Facebook aren't infallible. Nearly every social media went parabolic growth so far. It's inherent to social media. It growths while the network effect encourages people to talk about it and join it, it wanes when interest fades and people you don't want to see end up there, and you grow tired of seeing them, and as people who you joined to socialize with leave, you leave too.

Facebook will eventually fall. They will desperately try to buy their competition. But the inherently parabolic behavior of social networks will catch up with them and eventually one competition will not agree to be bought.

The most interesting part is that those networks don't realize their inherently parablic growth and usually ending up behaving like they are still growing exponentially at the peak of their growth, quickening the decline.
TBH though, you link seems to describe situations where people leverage the confusion to win arguments, but point taken (thanks for the link btw, interesting article, I added my own comment).

It seems it might be a useful distinction though; I always took AR to be a distinction of interface: reality plus augmentation; but it might also be a tech type too: augmentiong normal vision versus "virtual" AR, or AR in VR..

That said, I don't understand your comment "use the full power of human vision"; If VR headsets improve to the point VR environments are as detailed (wrt human perception) ad reality, then virtualised AR shouldn't differ either.

TBH my own concerns are how hard VR is to use while is block you from your surroundings: noticing when people approach, handling headset/controllers/keyboard etc. I can't replace my monitors with VR b/c I cannot see my keyboard in VR, I see my coffee mug, or notice when people approach in order to not jump every time someone taps my shoulder; VR needs to be partially augmented with my true surroundings just to operate within a normal space.
I think some people are just more meticulous with their stuff than others. I mean by this that it could be considered as going out of their way to make sure there are no tight bends, not pulling on cables, not shoving the cable in a purse whichever way you can, etc. My original iphone cable I bought more than 3 years ago still has its rounded shape as when it was new.

This, combined with poor quality products explains the difference in my opinion.

The only cable that frayed on me was a MagSafe 2, next to the computer connector. The cable is ridiculously thin. It was the adapter for my 15 MBP. In comparison, I'm still using the original adapter of my 2008 MBP and apart from being scratched and dirty, it's still as good as new, cable and all.

What I think happens often is that the cable will be under some kind of rotational stress. I've noticed I have a tendency to always turn the phone the same way, so the cable has a tendency to turn around its axis. It's something I see especially often on corded office phones. Also, cables are often at very tight angles close to the connector, so there beign next to no relief ends up tearing the housing.

I've also seen many people pull on the cable instead of the connector to uplug it. That can't be to good for longevity either.

I think the use of stored procedures is underrated. Create a stored procedure to verify the password and only grant permission for the web application-user to run this procedure, nothing more. No one but the database itself needs, or can ever access the hash-column this way. This way you still keep the application separate from the data. I would even argue that we need to get back to the time where there was a DBA handling the data. The dev-ops thinking of mixing application logic and data has introduced a lot of unnecessary security issues.

> But a REPL is essentially a single line editor from which you can evaluate expressions/statements.

It is not always single line, look at IDLE or even Firefox supports multiline REPL capabilities although it still needs some improvements (like not rerunning var declaration statements).
You don't have to remove negotiation and complexity from the system when it's used for data. My question isn't why those systems are there so much as why they are needed for the charging use case. E.g.: why do chargers even need more pins wired than +5V and ground? Is there really such a large benefit from making chargers "smart"?

Now they can't do that any more. It's a dilemma that British intelligence faced a lot during the world wars: if they acted on information gleaned from secret channel it would reveal to the enemy that the channel was compromised. Makes me wonder how long they were monitoring and possibly letting crime take place before deciding that now was the time to strike.
Why don’t /e/ smartphones ship (yet) to the USA?
It’ll be a means for the rich to lessen their pain. Nothing more. Let’s be honest.

No hospital would take you in on slight symptoms. The drug alone costs $3,000+, it’s basically US-only and thus needs to be administered there, which will end up costing about as much again.

See the top 0.01% hold some remdesivir in their mansions for their private physician to administer.

Stack allocation and value allocation are different. In C#, value types can be allocated on the stack, but reference types are always allocated on the heap. The OP describes an approach where reference types are stored on the stack.
Tesla’s Elon Musk teams up with Covid-19 player CureVac for 'RNA microfactories'
I can tell you one bit from my own experience.

I joined a new team on a new stack about a month before we had to start WFH. I did ok for the first 2-3 weeks WFH and felt like I was still making progress. Now after a couple months, I feel like I'm not producing value and I'm slow. I'm very demoralized.

The reasons for this are: I feel the subject matter is boring, the business doesn't give us good requirements because they either don't know or can't explain their complete process, the program-level technical leadership didn't do a good job of guiding the business so the system is a bit of a mess, and most importantly I don't feel like I am a value-producing respected member of the team. I miss having a say in how things are done. I was the acting tech lead on a previous team and later an ASC who was allowed to prioritize, manage, architect, and perform or delegate security work on an application covering six teams over two departments (still an ASC but not much to do on the current system).
