A solid majority of US evangelicals believe Christ will return to Earth by 2050 (ie, the Rapture): 60%. In 2020 over 80% of US evangelicals plan to vote for the Republican candidate. They are a quarter of the US population.

It is a solidly mainstream Republican belief.

At least on the toolchains I'm familiar with, the linker will insert crt0.o, a very basic part of the C runtime, which contains a _start implementation that pulls argc, argv, and envp from the stack:

So it's not really part of the "compiler" itself, it's usually an object file the linker includes in the linking job on your behalf.

I'm learning Rust now, I don't have anything particularly against it other than the obvious, big static binaries and such, and maybe those will be fixed eventually.

I've been able to compile and run C and C++ code from 20 years ago a truly amazing number of times. It's really surprising at how easy it is to work with well written code even if it's decades old.

Will Rust and Go age that way? Maybe. Too soon to tell.

Streamlit is awesome but solves a different use case. There's definitely similarities but also a few core differences. 1. Comet Panels reads the experimentation data from our API/Database. Streamlit is much more like Jupyter notebooks where you'd have to setup your own data store and implement logic to update it with new experiment data.
This also means that if you pull a visualization from the gallery it should work out of the box as the API is standard among everyone!
2. Comet Panels is freely hosted so no need to setup a webserver
3. Comet Panels is natively written in JS/HTML/CSS so you can use any JS library out of the box. Streamlit is written in Python and you might be limited to the built in UI components (or you can build a custom on which is also in JS/HTML/CSS)

Some people and corporations are getting obscenely, criminally wealthy by profiting from education, healthcare, and housing. I'm theorizing that if taxes were high enough such that it was impossible to accumulate obscene amounts of wealth in these sectors (and others) we could focus our efforts to provide these things to members of our society without interference by profiteers.
FANMAG is also the infrastructure that most of these companies are running on, so in a way, they are delivering it bit by bit to most companies. Especially as companies move from doing things like 'running their own exchange server' to 'buying a microsoft 365 subscription'.

Chromebook + google apps is what most companies need, and really good security for the most part.
Huge, complicated companies like Apple don't see the world as you or I do. They see the world through whatever sensors they're equipped with, and they respond to what those sensors are fed by other parts of the company. They are fed a collection of proxy metric for reality.

That's why they behave in funny, distorted ways, like pissing off their developer community and acting baffled that the community is getting irritated.
This is 100% the answer, and one thing I've never understood about many, many aspects of American life.

If you want people to act a certain way, you incentivize that thing, not punish the opposite of the thing.

You want people to stop doing drugs? Make programs designed to support them during the withdrawal process, provide counseling and other necessary supports, and make it free. You want people off of welfare? Provide career training and education, and assistance in the job search process, and make it free.

Punishment doesn't give you what you want, it gives you the appearance of getting what you want, while the people you punish spend their time trying to figure out how to lie their way around you.
I think there are valid reasons for a language spec to have Undefined behavior. But many UB in C would be much better if the where defined as platform specific. Like integer overflow, its very well defined on x86, ARM and every other CPU architecture in use, but not only does compilers act as if its unknowable, even when they clearly know it because they are implementing a known instruction set, they even make it hard to detect overflows since they optimize away tests since they cant happen.

I find that claim rather ironic, because I feel like the primary reason that PDFs are "unfit for human consumption" is a formatting issue, not as much a technical or practical issue. The reason they are unfit to read on line is that they are formatted using past formatting standards that are meant for print … not inline reading.

There are of course some technical limitations to PDF that would prevent them from being mad "digital first", but even just changing page layout and adjusting margins and spacing and font for horizontal display (as most of our screens are) vs vertical layout as one would read a printed sheet of paper, would make huge differences.

I for one actually compensate for that in that I have a dedicated monitor that is vertically oriented in order to read PDF documents. Better yet if you can do it on a very high dpi screen. But even that is not ideal because although I actually like print formats, standards, and conventions (like margins, spacing, and structure), it's simply not relevant or applicable in digital until we get A4/Letter formatted tablets or desktop screens that emulate physical paper … albeit even that, inadequately. Nothing can really replace the advantages of paper, at least not until we get paper thin displays that have zero measurable response times on pen inputs … i.e., likely never.

It's a matter of tense. I think we're all agreeing in this sub-thread.

I am focusing (perhaps too much) on the tense issues. Without tense, "no password reset mechanism", to continue using the same example, represents a problem state.

If something is a problem, it exists in the present.

If something will be a problem, with any contingency or timeline, then by definition it is not yet a problem.

Even in your own phrasing, the tense issue becomes clear:

> Yes, he doesn't have the problem now, because he's got no users, so indeed, having to reset the passwords of existing users would be a "nice to have" problem.

Specifically "... would be a "nice to have" problem." This indicates that it is not a problem, rather that it can become a problem.
MIT actually does not give an explicit patent grant. So if "any way you like" is your goal, you should choose something different like Apache License 2.0
Yeah: I get this prompt over and over again for the Tile application, and it is ridiculously annoying; if/when Apple launches their own Tile competitor, obviously their app will not be subject to the same handicap, and people might very well choose Apple's version simply because they won't get nagged constantly "are you sure you like Tile?!". That's clear anti-competitive behavior, in the same space as "tying" and "bundling": when Apple builds products that can be built using their platform, they need to be forced to not take advantage of the fact that they are the developer of the platform to give themself preferential treatment vs. the products, as if you allow that then you essentially always annoint the platform providers as the winners in any battle they are want to enter... the result of which being that you always end up with an oligopoly of giant companies owning every important market (and if you want to compete you have to take them on as network effect platforms) instead of separate oligopolies (let's face it: economy of scale effects pretty much always cause oligopolies in free markets :/ the only time that doesn't happen is if you hold a market space no one considers important) for every major market built on that platform (and then as a cross-cutting concern of said platforms; like, the market for bluetooth location dongles and voice assistants and browsers shouldn't be exactly the same game as the market for mobile phones and computers).
It is not the case that Brazil (at a state level) is doing nothing. It is the case that Brazil and France did things to very different degrees, and as a result have seen stunningly different results, as evidenced by those graphs. (And contradicting the assertion of the GP poster.)

> The NSA used to have a defensive mission.

The NSA still has a defensive mission, and it hasn't changed. It just might not be the defensive mission you assumed it was. IIRC, it's mainly to defend US Government systems and communications from adversaries. To the extent they help with the defense of civilian systems, their goal seems to be to give them adequate security, not absolute security.

For instance, take this episode from the development of DES during the 70s:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Encryption_Standard#NSA's...

> NSA worked closely with IBM to strengthen the algorithm against all except brute-force attacks and to strengthen substitution tables, called S-boxes. Conversely, NSA tried to convince IBM to reduce the length of the key from 64 to 48 bits. Ultimately they compromised on a 56-bit key.
| Am I living in a bubble when it comes to electricity?

Your electricity service may not be as reliable as you think - some utility power can be quite "dirty" with high levels of distortion. There's a lot of infrastructure between you and the power company that can cause problems. A good UPS will not only protect against outages, but will filter/condition utility power.

I live in Chicago, in an older apartment building. I haven't had a full on outage in the past few years, but during major storms I have seen some flickering and other issues. I just looked at the readout on the UPS, and so far it's kicked in 5 times this year. I have a pretty sizable NAS (40TB) and a beefy workstation - the $200 I spent on an APC BR1500MS is well worth the protection.

Safety is another consideration. My parents live on their hobby farm a few hours away - they are the only house at the end of a mile long road with older power lines. I put a similar UPS to keep their alarm/phone/network online. If there's a medical alarm, fire, carbon monoxide, water leak, etc the alarm can still alert the monitoring company, their internet/VoIP landline can fail over to cellular, and we can get alerted that something is up. Again, the peace of mind alone is well worth the $200 (plus $100 for a battery every few years).

The Trump administration has already decided to surrender to this pandemic. They're just betting that enough voters in key swing states are on board with their alternative reality that they won't notice or care about their grandparents and elderly neighbours dying.
Not trying to make a political statement here but more about people and what they care about in general. Its amazing to me that trump's support is still at 40-45% in the country.

The people living in the same country can see things unfolding in front of their eyes and make completely different decisions on them is fascinating to me.

When I talk to my friends who are staunch trump supporters, they give me some fox news platitudes about him and Biden. But when I talk about individual issues and the things he has done all of them agree that its bad or really bad. I went down the list about 20-25 of them and did not get a single pushback. However they still vote for him. The human mind is a fascinating and complicated thing.
Intellimize | Senior Back-end / Machine Learning Engineer | ONSITE San Mateo, CA or REMOTE (US or Canada only) | FULL-TIME | https://www.intellimize.com/careers/mle/

Intellimize optimizes websites to generate more revenue. We use machine learning to automatically optimize each buyer’s path to drive more web conversions.

Our unique solution enables experimentation and personalization at an unparalleled scale, and it replaces traditional approaches to optimization such as A/B testing and rules-based personalization. These methods are too slow, require daily attention, and don’t automatically adapt to changes in behavior over time.

This role: senior level, back-end and some ML engineering. The exact blend is flexible, and we'd be happy to have a great back-end engineer join us even without any ML background.

Primary technologies: Java, Python, Tensorflow, Spark, Airflow, AWS.

Our team is positive, low ego, and customer focused. Strong communication skills are a must.

We plan to re-open our San Mateo office once it is safe to do so, and the company will continue embrace remote work (it's going great for us!). This team in particular is remote-first.

You can apply via email to careers@, or to alex@ if you want to contact me directly. I'm the hiring manager for this position.

Sure, but oil companies have the narrow view. External costs to society: they care not. Any cost they can pass on to you, they will.
Actually it's quite easy to understand.

It all comes down to their ideology, which in a nutshell comes down to: maximizing profits and (perceived) short-term gains for its core constituency (i.e. business elites) - and where that's not quite possible, at least keep the illusion of an every-expanding, anything goes "free market" system chugging along for another year or two -- at the expense of everyone and everything else -- and all common sense to boot.
Same rough usecase but not the same output. The SIFT stereoscopy approach would build a 3D model while this learns a field.

Meaning that this deals properly with things like reflection and transparency. Also it is resistant to partial occlusion that appears randomly in the training data (people in the photographs).

The huge downside is that you have to train a neural network every time you want a model: that is very slow, ressource intensive and fragile.

Agreed that the experience when trying to native-enable existing libs isn't the greatest. Altough those things are rather reported by the GraalVM compiler rather than Quarkus. The working model and assumption is that somebody goes through this once and then either contributes changes to the library in question back upstream or provides a Quarkus extension for that library, sparing others from that hassle.

That RAM consumption sounds definitely over the top; if you still have the context, logging an issue would be very welcomed. That said, there's many libraries enabled by Quarkus (see quarkus.io/guides/), so every essential functionality should be covered by now. Still a question of course whether your specific library in a given space (like FreeMarker vs. Quarkus Qute) already is supported. In any case, thanks for checking back in regularly, things might look better next time already, as the framework evolves rapidly.
Here are the things I would need to migrate from C/C++/Rust to a new language:

Automatic memory management, with optional manual control,
no garbage collection.

A universal or widely accepted build system (Cargo, CMake)

A public package registry and dependency resolver, designed
for deterministic builds, multiple versions of the same
package on one machine, etc, and support for private/proprietary
registries (Cargo, Conan)

A modern query-oriented/reactive/responsive (non-batch) compiler,
that supports static analysis, linting, language server features,
AST traversals/queries, etc.

Support for debugging with GDB/LLDB.

A (substantial) subset of the language with a stable ABI.

Fast debug builds, fast release binaries.

Syntax/semantics of the language are significantly less important to me than all of the above.
If healthcare was provided by the state, Mom and Pop stores wouldn’t be able to easily afford to operate. In France, it’s extremely expensive for small businesses to hire workers and the advantages go to the large companies who can afford to pay those “social charges.” If you pay a worker €20,000 in France, it costs the employer €40,000 for that worker. Then the €20,000 wage is also taxed at a high percentage. The result is. That France has very low per capita disposable income than does the US. Anytime government “runs” something, there is a non-trivial deadweight loss incurred. We need to find ways to increase efficiency, not hamper it.

Even when you turn off all that stuff, shit like iBeacon still makes you locally trackable. Try installing the apple store app for example, turning off everything and walking into a physical apple store, you'll still get an iBeacon induced notification on your phone from that app.

There is no way to turn off iBeacon tracking on iPhones.

At this point you need to walk around with a faraday cage evidence bag to not have your phone stop fucking transmitting & receiving radio waves.
