I agree, and don't believe your explanation is all that different from mine. Market driven medicine implicitly favors people who for whatever reason find themselves in the position to pay for care, and slowly but surely culls those who aren't.

People with the power to regulate health care "markets", to shape the incentive structures and make them less overtly biased in favor of wealthy people, sometimes they do this and sometimes they don't. Currently, at least in the US, in the midst of this unfolding crisis, the power balance seems skewed toward the "let's take a violent trek toward 'herd immunity' as soon as possible" decision makers, many of whom are more or less blatantly eugenic.
> over the history of mathematics, analysis has been used to refer to just about everything that isn’t geometry

Actually, at the start (2500 years ago) the word “analysis” in mathematics was only about geometry.

See e.g. https://www.jstor.org/stable/2250061
I'm saying that if you think of IO as being a state monad then you will be surprised by the behaviour of async exceptions (and likely introduce bugs in your program). I'm not taking a view on what Haskell should do, just saying that it's something people using the current IO type need to be aware of.
I disagree with most of this review. Yes a lot of the add-ons are not working anymore, but to be fair a lot of them were only ever useful for the desktop anyway.
I have been a Firefox user on android pretty much since it first came out and fenix is the best firefox on android by quite a margin and IMO the best browser on mobile. It's much faster than previous versions and subjectively faster than chrome. The major privacy and adblock extensions already are ported and the ui overhaul is a much needed improvement in particular the bottom bar and tab management.
> How did he get so numb in life in general?

You laden them with paralysing amounts of debt in their late teens, force them into capitalistic servitude for the rest of the life. Make sure they earn only just enough to survive. Make sure they work until they are totally exhausted and you can’t squeeze another dollar of productivity out of them.

Make sure they think the only alternative to this is homelessness/total destitution.

Then don’t give them a legal or ethical option that shows them any future other than the above until they are dead, while their bosses boss gets rich.

Then wonder why they act unethically
How to use KGR technique?
You can't use external motviation to create a passion in people. You can spark motivation by having it 'rub off' from your own passion, you can give people freedom of expression and choice, and you can use authority to keep them doing something when they are in a slump.

It can be a bit frustrating because love from small kids feels very unconditional, although they just learn that if they please you, they get food, shelter and (hopefully) positive emotions. And if you get very excited for them coding, it might motivate them to do more (since it feeds them to please you). This sounds more harmful than it is, just something to bear in mind.

Now there are various ways to appeal to intrinsic interests in kids to have them pick up something, but if it just doesn't ring with them, you can't force it.

The cool thing about computer science/engineering is, that your kids will most likely have lots of contact points in their life with CS fields. Health is getting more and more high-tech, and art is using arduinos, microcontrollers, ... for installations and various effects, depending on the direction the artist goes. So don't give up hope yet, you might be doing a project together before you know it :)
"If you don't like the working conditions, you can leave."

Why does that only apply when people are trying to dismiss the value of unions or discourage their colleagues from forming a union with their coworkers? Surely if you didn't want to work in a union shop, but a majority of your coworkers did, it'd be on you to just find a new employer.

Heck, what’s wrong with them doing good solely for the credit? As long as doing good is the side effect, good is done

Is it because you don’t enjoy it as much, knowing who did it? Bit selfish. Or maybe it makes your own anonymous charitable works (or lack thereof) feel not as good? It’s a lot of money but this isn’t a race!

"Blizzard Workers Share Salaries in Revolt Over Wage Disparities"

I agree with one of the commentators on the blizzard page - this feels like propaganda, and I'm saying this AS a long-term WoW player.
I honestly have no idea where you got the idea that namespace conflicts are a problem in C# or Java. Both have solved this problem (C# with aliasing and Java with packages).
Why would people even use NoSQL when they really know how to use postgresql. It has JSON native build in.

Postgresql and NodeJS is the best! being using it for years. Of course you got learn SQL or some kind of ORM to make it worth you while.

It is great marketing to list 40%. But we need to know 40% of what. If it was 1ms, than 0.4ms faster isn't much of a performance.
So it takes the computing power equivalent of a 300W PC running for 10 hours to serve a thousand page views? At 50 req/page view, that server is handling ~1.5 requests per second.

That kind of throughput can be handled by a RaspberryPi, so are we seriously wasting 95%+ of the power budget routing packets and idling servers?
What is the current scientific consensus on how to take Vitamin D? Daily doses? Single very large doses spaced every fortnight?

I've tried searching the internet before about Vitamin D and it's surprisingly confusing, both about dosage as about intake routine. Also confusing that daily requirements are contested to be way off to our real needs, it's just a lot of misinformation lingering around that I, as a layman, can't really parse it.
Is going to be?

Instagram already lost me a while ago. It started to hamfist Snapchat stories in there. I also believe they tried to force in Facebook Messenger features at some point.

It also totally ruined any proper disoverability. You like one Comic Book post and suddenly you only get stupid text only posts about superhero facts. With no way to manually configure your interests.

And to make things worse, my personal feed got messed up because they thought it was best to no longer show the feed chronologically. Because hiding new posts lower in the feed, and keep showing me week-old posts on top was obviously a good idea.

All I want is sharing pictures I took with my friends, while also looking at photography from random people.
I've used it a fair bit, but it's too exotic to show up on enough machines to really focus on. It's not just a trick to make benchmarks run faster; that's an idiotic conspiracy theory. It's just that the release of AVX-512 happens to coincide with the 10nm disaster.

Probably the biggest problem is that new Intel ISAs often are associated with downclocking (this isn't new with AVX-512 - AVX2 had it as well). Usually these problems were short-lived, but with 10nm getting stalled, they've stuck around longer. This is pure poison if like me, you generally write libraries. It's scary to look at some 60% speedup you might get from some neat rewrite for your bit of the task, but then wonder whether you're going to make the rest of the task several percent slower due to a downclock in what might only be 20% of the time. So it's hard to make the call to use AVX-512 in its early stages unless you control the whole core.

Linus thinks that everything is either a kernel or a gcc execution, and happily disregards anything that doesn't fit his own workloads. AVX-512 can do Good Things for a disparate range of stuff - in-memory databases, regex/string matching, bioinformatics, CPU intensive network workloads, parsing and lexing as well as the usual scientific computing and AI workloads (many of the latter are also pretty good on GPGPU).
Yeah, I guess at least part of the problem is that we're using a version of Vue that's not natively designed around Typescript. There is a patch for it, but it's not that thorough. Half-hearted typescript doesn't work. A version of Vue that assumes you're using typescript and has interfaces defined for everything, would probably make a massive difference, and I think that's what Vue 3 does, but we're not in a position to migrate at this moment.

Basically, any use of `any` should be avoided. Once you tolerate one `any`, you're on the way down.

One thing that I really, really do like about typescript is that you need to be explicit about whether a value can be null. Java lacks that, but the difference between `foo: string` and `foo: string|null` is stark.
I strongly disagree with this. Getting the schema right, reduces code writing and code maintenance.
Ah problem solved then, we just need to document very clear that C code should not corrupt memory, how did I never thought of it.
Please note that this is not about personal filter bubbles, but rather professional ones. I find this interesting and disturbing, as it would no doubt improve reporting if journalists were more aware of all viewpoints across the political (or otherwise) spectrum and what issues seem to matter in different circles, not just their own.

What they do during their spare time is of course up to them. But their professional ability to report on the news would surely benefit from a wider range of perspectives.
Bending backwards is a synonym to code quality delivered by consulting/offshoring projects across most big corporations.
Oh, I should note that an interest in large SIMD is not confined to Intel - the ARM world is (slowly) heading towards SVE (or so my friends from that quarter assure me). So it's not just a partisan pro-Intel or pro-x86 thing on my part.

If the numbers are to be believed, the comparison would be more like one human life for every coffee you buy(<$4 to save a human life).
Because there is more poor ppl than rich ppl, and poor ppl can buy stonks at 1$, but they can’t buy stonks at 1000$.

So if some idiot says that stonk X is hot at 1$, the amount of money that is available to buy that stonk and pump it’s price up is much higher than for a stonk that’s at 1000$ and that only 1% of the population can put money in.
Being unionized is like growing chest hair for an industry. The best ones always do it, and it’s better than you think it will be.
What can be learned is that pay and employment is stratified by ethic group. However, UK not as strongly as US or South Africa, and very differently.

Still haven't found data for France, probably have to look for it in French.

For UK, my suspicion is that type of employment for Bangladeshi/Pakistani/Chinese workers is higher vs lower paying jobs.

This probably does not quite fit the employment structure for blacks in the USA at all. But if it does, the question is then: why blacks are denied access to well paying professional jobs?

In British case, the racial differences are mostly caused due to first generation immigrant biases, such as language barrier or cultural fit. (Esp. see salaries of older Indian descent.) This should not matter for USA. If it does, then why is US black culture, extant for many generations, being biased against?
The average human breathes out 1g of CO2 every minute and a half.

By comparison, average UK cars put out 124.5g for every km driven.

It's not nothing, but it's not a lot either. It probably is worth evaluating the electrical efficiency of the tech industry as a whole, both in terms of highly executed code hotspots and entire pieces of business of questionable utility (ad javascript, cryptocurrency proof-of-waste), but individual web pages are the plastic straws of the industry compared to the giant flare stacks of real problems.

KTF – Kernel Test Framework
It is a simple kernel test framework, that can be used for hardware testing (e.g. CPU), hypervisor testing or security research.

Depends on the compiler. Gcc compiles to the lowest common denominator while icc offers "Processor dispatch technology performs a check at execution time to determine which processor the application is running on and use the most suitable code path for that processor. Compatible, non-Intel processors will take the default optimized code path."

For HPC they will always compile to use the full set of instructions and see how it performs. For some software there will be explicit checks and loading the right compiled code(compression, video effects etc). On a desktop most things are compiled for the minimum processor though. The CPU might still be able to use its new features like wide registers of the instructions are in just the right order.

If you run something with instructions your processor doesn't have it will crash.
That the experience of war made people take more drugs does actually tell something, but I doubt it is favorable towards the argument for stricter enforcement.
Another option is to always delete cookies and site data when you close Firefox and set exceptions for the few sites you care about. If you are like me and only start Firefox once or twice a day this prevents too much annoyance while limiting cookie based tracking.

Also, Mozilla should really think about what is wrong with the statement "Since we enabled ETP by default, we’ve blocked 3.4 trillion tracking cookies." I imagine most people who care about tracking would like to not be tracked by anyone, not just anyone other than Mozilla.

Makes me wonder just how much power/carbon waste goes in to ads vs content on the modern web.
To me it doesn't look bad on paper. I mean, living in an extreme climate, it makes sense on paper to have everyone in a single building so there's no need to go out for everyday activities like shopping, taking kids to school and so on. And heating of a single building is much more efficient.

How it works in practice is a different beast, of course... if you have some extra time to kill, could you describe why it turned a dystopia?

Everything old is new again. This challenge is basically why monads exist, because the monad allows you to cleanly separate between the state in which the algorithm is running and the algorithm itself. Reminds me of: https://philipnilsson.github.io/Badness10k/posts/2017-05-07-...

US forces tend to do their shooting and running over in Central/South America and the Middle East. Many countries in those areas are less impressed by US benevolence.

The US is an empire. So was the USSR. So are China and modern Russia. Some provinces are treated better than others, but empires are empires, and propaganda, political manipulation, corruption, violence, and torture are how they roll - together with resource capture, labour management, and various levels of market development.

Europe had a notable level of propaganda and political manipulation, and still does, and not so much of the overt violence. But just because the corruption, violence and torture were happening elsewhere doesn't mean they weren't happening at all.

It's not clear from this article how the trimaran works, but you can see in the photos that there is a gap at the top of the outboard hulls. So I suspect it's the relative motion between the outboard hulls and the inboard one which is converted to hydraulic power - makes sense, it will be a short movement with a huge force behind it. That is then fed to a generator, electrical storage and propulsion unit.

It knows it’s elbow. Not it’s ass
Ahhh, nevermind. I was under the impression that when you grabbed a pointer to member function, it was grabbing a specific implementation. I actually did not know it supported virtual dispatch.

Now I think I finally understand why MSVC pointer to member functions are 16 bytes wide; I knew about the multi-inheritance this pointer adjustment, but I actually had no idea about virtual dispatch through member pointers. Frankly, I never used them in a way that would’ve mattered for this.
