I really loved Frankl's book as a teenager. I only learnt about his dark side, that the book was full of lies, recently. I didn't just read the wikipedia page, followed up the references, reading into several books that go into detail about it. The more you learn, the more disturbing and weird it gets. Yes in fact they do sound like disturbing Mengele-like experiments on people. His massive-bestseller book makes it sound like he was in Auschwitz for a long period, which is a total lie. (Did you read it? I can't imagine anyone who loved the book thinking it "irrelevant" whether he actually was at Auschwitz!)

edit: Gee, you're right about the wikpedia page! The controversy section has been entirely erased since I last looked! Very weird. Sorry about that. e.g. in April last year it looked like

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Viktor_Frankl&typ...

I guess all the references to things have been removed too. I'm not sure why. The books and papers it led me to seemed believable.

> But once you've got "//go:generate", adding "//go:embed" isn't really any worse.

There's way more than that: https://golang.org/src/cmd/compile/internal/gc/lex.go#L53

And I would argue that it's bull. Once they realised that they were introducing pragmas / attributes into the language, they should have bitten the bullet and actually introduced a clean way to annotate language items.

The first and second ones are excusable as "we'll only need one" and "well it's not worth the hassle" but at the third one it's not a special case it's a pattern. Especially as the excuse that "other implementations can ignore those" gets less and less true: a compiler which ignores go:embed can not be considered working.

That’s actually exactly what I was going to say. Of course you should update your priors continuously and thus evolve your model. A model is never perfect but it’s the best approximation to reality we have. In the end, Fat Tony has a model in his head, too.
I think purpose. It's easy to take it as a perk that you can ride your bike for 30 min and get "free" exercise while you go to work. It's a bit different mindset to ride your bike just for the sake of exercising and not having a bigger goal behind it.

It's easy to make the switch though, I did it :)
I'm of the opinion it's better that they go, but reasonable people disagree. There are certainly potential economic benefits to the students at A&T at the time, but it could be argued that longer-term cultural progress is hindered by such token displays.

So `true` would be 0xFFFFFFFF (assuming 32 bit)? Can you explain the advantage of that? Presumably 0 through 0xFFFFFFFE would be considered false?
The problem is, people used to have non-gender, non-racial terms for people. For example, a person might be called an 'asshole' or 'bonehead', and this could be a person of any colour, any sex, age, etc.

Yet now, it seems all sorts are labeling people based upon sex, colour, ethnic background, etc. It is, quite literally, the definition of sexual, racial, age discrimination. It is linking "external characteristic" with "way a person acts".

I don't care what anyone's political stance is, but if you are using terms like 'Karen', you are 100% contributing to sexism, racism, etc.

Just call someone what they are. "Asshole" has worked fine for millennia.
What I want is that if you work from home, you get a stipend to your wage equivalent to the cost they would normally spend on your office space.

I did a quick google which said that in SF, office space is $80 / sq. foot, I presume per month? Assuming you need idk, 15 - 30 sq. foot per employee (not even counting shared spaces), that's $1200 - $2400 / month to be added to your wage, plus a bit for expenses like desks, coffee or lunch that are normally offered by the employer.

I read another post or article that made the statement that if you work from home, you should be earning enough to have a bigger house with dedicated office space. Of course, working remotely would also mean you can move around the state or country where housing prices are lower.

For me, I bought a two bedroom house a few years ago; it works for me, I have my desk set up in my bedroom, quite comfortable but I would still like a dedicated work / hobby space, so if this work from home keeps up, long-term I'm looking at moving back to where I grew up in the north part of the country (NL), where houses are bigger and cheaper than they are over here.
Teenager threatened with gang rape and murder, takes Facebook Inc to Court
Having worked in the FAANG / startup offices you describe, they always felt like they were designed to appeal to someone in their early 20s who was irritated that they didn’t have the benefits of living at home with parents who take care of “adult” responsibilities. Instead of calling it immaturity, we tech folks give it a more digestible name and call it “time optimization”. Some of us like the autonomy of maintaining our lives without some parent-like figure - you know, actually growing up? It was funny - when I worked there and described the benefits, one of my non-tech friends just stared at me and said - “so... they give you that so you never leave work? That sounds miserable.” Changed my outlook forever on the benefits.
Why does Rails 6 include both Webpacker and Sprockets?
Yes and no - mostly the market is a game, like foxes and rabbits where the "rabbits" are forced into behaviours that the foxes can exploit. The dominant strategy for the rabbits is created by policy and regulation and also business success - all that money has to go somewhere. The foxes know that Mr. Rabbit will come back from the veg garden at 6pm and so wait at the hole. All is well as the rabbits grow in number, fatten and prosper, and so do the foxes. So in this situation its all games and you can get rich if you play well.

Good examples are carry trades and insurance market punts - people know that the central bank of Japan has to do X, they know that people are getting old in the developed world... betting on this happening is mostly a clever thing to do.

Every so often at random along comes an event that throws all this into the air - this might be something massive or something small but when it happens people go bust. For example, well look around.

There is a lot of talk that "oh we will know when we are in trouble and we will just change strategy" but sometimes that just proves not to be so. The point is that getting to play the game well for long enough to prosper is just luck, getting out at the right time is just luck. You can be stupid and get taken to the cleaners at any time, and you can play well and just be "the fat rabbit" at any time as well. So, be lucky and play well.
I mean that there are two groups of people involved.

The first is the person or people who is/are potentially the first of a particular ethnic group to achieve a position. If you are that person or people, you will need courage to not let that dissuade you. I don’t see any discrimination there. If you are dissuaded because there is no one before you, then you need more determination because for most people bad things happen in life and you need to deal with it.

The second is everyone else. It would be discriminatory if others defined the first by their race in that situation. But that discrimination doesn’t necessarily happen.
There aren’t “two main sides” in US politics. There are two parties and choosing either comes with a metric fuck-ton of positions. Generally supporting Democrats just because they support one position you agree with is dumber than not supporting either side.

This is also the reason why they use grammatical errors. To further fish out the too wary. You are left with desperate (people in dire financial situation), or 'high level of trust' as you put it.

Right - "assume at the start that the coin is fair - you are free to update the assumption as you go" is a different thing than they said. Usually "assume that" assumptions are meant to hold throughout the question.

Many companies in NL have already said that the new 'normal' will be a maximum of 2 days per week in office, the rest remote.

So I agree with you there's no substitute for physically meeting. But I personally welcome this new normal with more remote work.

Only having to commute to the office 2 days a week already saves me 6 hours of time.

as a side note for things that use the 'uvc' webcam video driver, there's $20-25 microscopes now that are standard usb webcams. Cheap things with plastic lenses.

I did the thing. I’m still in the race. Am I winning? I know I am because I never raced you. Or maybe I am right now? If I lost, would I even notice? Should I care to win? At what cost?

The post was factual, as are all of my posts, in my own overwrought efforts to be satirical, witty, clever, or argumentative, in the spirit of debate of course.

My point is, I guess if I could even find a common thread, is this. Don’t stop racing. It’s what makes you want to be who you’re not. If that doesn’t inspire you, go meet your heroes and their friends and associates and nearby hackers, and get back to me.

I really like the prospect of "pluggable" formula parsers. I've thought many times about the possibilities of custom formula languages.

Imagine populating the table using a graphql query to the backend for example. Not sure if that would make sense as a formula by itself but I can see that there are many nice possibilities here.
> practically no violence,atleast when to what you see in French or the US.

To be frank, i don't know about the US, but violence in French protest used to be well-contained and limited to a few buildings (often a mcdonald, a bank or two and sometime a Tesla, nothing an assurance wouldn't cover, and free time for a dozen employee during the repairs) until recently when lawkeeping doctrine were changed to avoid making our government looking like they lost.

Violence from protesters used to be limited to black blocks, and black blocks are organized and carefull, attached to symbols. You could predict which batiment could be targeted ahaed of time, take preventive mesure for those batiments. They never put fire in commercial building if there were occupied appartement nearby.

Then, because of a macdonald destruction that looked bad on a camera (despite looking really, really good for anybody aware of what lawkeeping really is about: 3 minor injuries, 90 BB arrested for a quarter of a million of property damage), police were asked to start protecting batiment.

That made mobile brigade and CRS immobile and unable to follow and limit property destruction, so a minister door was fractured.

Easy solution, just had more police. even if the ones we add are not trained in lawkeeping at all and are used to anti-drugs operation and are a bit trigger-happy. And also, change the doctrine, instead of letting black blocks destroying property to scare protesters off and nest BB more easely, meet them earlier. If "normals" protester don't want to be hurt, they shouldn't be near these black blocks!

We are two deaths, three hands, around twenty eyes, battered poicemen and a dropping confidence in the police after those "clever" decisions.

Violence call for violence, and now the protester are really violent. Their rights.

How to Build Smart Irrigation System Based on Lora
I'm old enough to remember when there was a lot of ISA competition. Trouble was each ISA had no longevity, you were dependent on one vendor typically and choosing an ISA was pot luck.

I don't think it's reasonable to expect compiler writers to solve any fragmentation issues.

As I said I like RISC-V and think it's laudable. We just need to recognise the downsides and not get too carried away.

> NC A&T has a 46% graduation rate vs Duke's 95%.

I'm not sure that's a useful measure in the direction you think it is.

I have a few friends in academia here in .au - where the higher education system has been systematically defunded by a series of governments on both sides to the extent they're pretty much totally reliant of foreign students paying "full fees". I've heard stories of teachers being told they will be fired if they do not pass foreign student - even if their course attendance makes it blatantly obvious they can barely speak/write english and their handed in course work is blatantly plagiarised and/or ghostwritten. "Not failing" enough students looks a lot like poor academic standards and/or practice from where I sit.

(And it's quite likely a signal of endemic institutional racism as well. Duke don't enroll "the sort of student" who doesn't get private tutoring or who needs to, for example, work a part time job to support themselves through college. Which is why they're not a "HBCU"...)

Chengdu consulate is a very peculiar place. It shows very well the schizophrenia of a communist state.

You could walk past it and not even notice there's anything special about that place. Yes it has tall, well protected walls around it, but so do many schools in Chengdu (apparently kidnapping is/was a huge concern).
The place also has guards around it, but so do many office complexes. There's even one or two armed policemen -- a normal view around any bigger transport hub as well.

At least 3 years ago, when I went there, there was not a single US flag installed visible from the street. It's like CCP doesn't want (their own) people to see, "US is there".

The giveaway for me was the private via consultancy/advisory offices on the other side of the street. They all had USA flags in their windows.
Americans can be proud that they are the only country that actually stands up against tyrants like the CCP.

Compare that to what we do here in Europe: not only don't we do anything after China took control of Hongkong. We finance Putin by building yet another gas pipeline. And we finance Erdogan via the "refugee pact".

I grew up in a Texas town of 100,000, and it didn't have a single bus route until I was 14. The closest shop was a small bakery six blocks away, which was a godsend since that was the only shop within five miles. When half the usable space is parking, it's low-density. When you have houses plopped in the middle of a hundred-foot-to-a-side rectangle, it's low-density.

I acknowledge that it is, indeed, a gradient. But lots of points on that gradient are huge negatives to the people living there.
