But the real question is why this particular banking service exists? If Bitcoin is the stable currency it was designed to be, then it would be nonsensical for a person already holding it to borrow 30% of its value in USD at 8% APR. The answer of course is that some people are so convinced that BTC will rise in value by more than 8% over the loan duration they're prepared to go into debt to keep large portions of their net worth in it, and some might even fancy buying more BTC with the cash they've borrowed, and maybe borrowing against that too. In this analogy BTC isn't the bank, it's the houses people were taking out the subprime mortgages on (minus the upside of avoiding rental payments)
I think the more obvious answer is that men and women prefer different things on a group basis and there is a lot of science to back this up. In countries that are less free, there are more women in IT than in western countries where people are free to go after whatever interests them. This holds true even when loads of money are poured onto different diversity projects.

I think you are probably right.
Most of your reply isn’t really correct.

> A vaccine is also an attenuated version of the virus so if becoming immune from the virus doesn't last long it won't last long from a vaccine.

A vaccine can be an attenuated virus, or a piece of mRNA or DNA, or a distinctive viral protein. Which type of vaccine you use+the adjuvants that go with it can result in very different immune responses and efficacy over time.

> This is false, immunity is strong and long-lasting.

Immunity to COVID-19 varies a lot person to person and is poorly understood. It does however appear that many people can be reinfected (especially people who had mild symptoms the first time.)
Very bad analogy. Yes, for almost all skills, just doing them improves your proficiency. For example, toddlers learn primarily by mimicking their parents, replicating their behaviour.

The exception to this is skills that will kill you if you get in over your head. But that's a rather small category of skills, and it only calls for supervision, not avoidance.

As for tutoring itself: it increases the skill level of both the teacher and the student. The student gets 1-on-1 directed focus, and the teacher is forced to reflect more deeply on his own skills. Having students teach each other is very beneficial at all levels of education.
Updates are great. An update improving the ECU, fixing a bug, ensuring compliance with emission controls, correcting a cruise control anomaly after tapping the brakes, upgrading maps database, etc etc etc, are all very welcome.

I’d still like my car stereo, climate, beams, indicators and wipers controls to remain physical and be mapped on whatever new software. I will still change station and volume, I will still signal left and right turns (with the possible exception of BMW owners), I will still do a tactile search of my AC, find the big knob, rotate it a notch or 2, without keeping eyes off the road.
Why would anyone loan out money at 0% APR? That only makes sense if you value the ETH far more than the money. There is no way to profit from borrowers who pay the loan back. The only way you could possibly turn a profit is by speculating that ETH is rising in price and getting ETH as collateral when a borrower defaults but if that's your strategy why not buy ETH directly?

I don't know enough about Julia, but the definition of "systems" is different in Go vs. C/C++/Rust. Go is more of a Python, Ruby or Node competitor while Rust is more of a C, C++ or D competitor.

Doesn't mean that there is no overlap, but when you wish to go closer to the metal, picking Rust makes lots of sense.
glibc, Debian package version 2.31-3, without any special defines. Here is the program I used:

https://gist.github.com/comex/58ba394588478bb1d506a998850b94...

If I run the program and press Ctrl-C, it prints "interrupted" but then keeps going. However, if I add `siginterrupt(SIGINT, 1)` after the call to signal(), interrupting the read() produces EINTR as expected.

Interestingly, the glibc manual used to state that the default behavior depended on the presence of _BSD_SOURCE or _GNU_SOURCE, but in 2014 it was changed to state that the default is always to use EINTR:

The Boring company has nothing to do with the Hyperloop concept. The Boring company is about creating cheap tunnels quickly. Current tunneling technology is severely limited by its price. It is really open-ended, which transport system is going to be used inside these tunnels. Hyperloop might be one option, but currently, Elon is not pushing into that direction. Currently, they are using Tesla cars. For higher capacities, special vehicles for those tunnels could be constructed - using the basic Tesla technology, but looking more like normal trains.
I don’t agree.

The C ABI is specified in a spec that Linux adopts (eg the x86-psabi), and it is what allows all software using this abi (from assembly to C to Rust) to eg Interface with each other. Linux could write an ABI spec for Rust on its platform today and add a patch to the Rust compiler (or to a C++ comoiler) to adhere to this ABI.

Nobody has done this, and from many povs this is something that does not make much sense doing, but it’s up to the platform to specify how binary software communicates with each other. Linux only specifies this for C, and that’s what Rust software currently does and has to use on Linux.

> Even then, std::vector has set-like operations through binary_search or std::make_heap in C++, so it really isn't that hard using a sorted (or make_heap'd) std::vector in practice.

Except std::vector does not enforce the sorted or heap constraints when adding or removing elements so eventually someone working on your code will break them.

Why though? It seems like an elaborate technical solution just to avoid someone making a decision on fruitless bike-shedding discussions. It will only work for white space formatting not for other conventions prone to bikeshedding like naming/casing conventions.

Just make decision and get on with your lives. Have some kind of linter check for inconsistencies before any human review.

If an organization cannot make a decision on inconsequential bike-shedding it is dysfunctional.
Reimplementation relying on unsafe ‘C/C++’ code (as most of the core infrastructure is written in them) is done more for marketing especially among language aficionados.

Hope someone from Rust community can write something which can match some of the core software written in Go language, which has already proven its usefulness and quality in writing systems programs in networking and system infrastructure areas.

C/C++ replacement at this time is just a wishful thinking given Rust cannot work without C/C++ today, most useful crates will break if underlying C/C++ code is not maintained or updated.

And it becomes meaningless too in light of TSMC being industry's biggest employer. And Taiwan pulling more than a half of semi engineers globally.

Incident TaskRouter JavaScript SDK Security Incident
Replacing the leadership of a failing company instead of firing the normal employees who had and have no influence on the decisions driving the companies would actually be a really good idea.

Instead they fired a whole bunch of people to better their finances in the short-term while damning the company in the long-term.

CEO what's-her-face and the other C-level parasites most likely are only trying to press as much money as they can from the company before either the company is completely run into the ground or they're fired.

And fired they should be.

It boils down to various kinds of normalization - as in functional programming's normal form. If you can get a normal form of an expression (or canonical form), you can fuse several seemingly different expressions into one and share its computation in several places.

As an example aside from functional programming, consider instruction set architectures.

There are 3-address RISC instructions and "x := y - z" can be encoded in 32^3 different ways. It is not practical to consider all of them as a separate thing and share them.

The situation is less severe in two address ISAs and even less severe in 1 address (accumulator based) ISA (8086 is a blend between 1 and 2 address ISA).

For zero address ISAs it is even better. There's only one way to compute y-z, by issuing "-", which takes two arguments from stack and places subtraction result into it. Situations that lead to that subtraction are less diverse than in RISC 3-address way. And here comes the gist: one can factor same sequences of opcodes into subroutine ("word" in Forth parlance) and replace these sequences with call to that subroutine.

By programming Forth you do LZ compression on programs.

If you can't compress your program more, you have a perfect Forth program, and I am not quite joking here.

The same applies, albeit not that dramatically and visible, to other things in programs. It is possible to determine algorithmic kernels in programs (by matching optimized data and control flow against a pattern) and replace them with different ones - less computation intensive, parallelized, parametrized, etc. There were such works in optimization literature.

Again, in the kernel matching optimization goes first, because optimization makes program more canonical, so to say. And matching on canonical forms is easier.
Bitcoin is not reinventing the banking system.

Bitcoin is being used by a centralized party (Coinbase) to offer banking services. Instead of lending fiat they can lend a digital asset (Bitcoin).

Coinbase is centralized and highly regulated. Their mission is not in line with the original mission for bitcoin to be a global currency. Bitcoin has a volatile value that makes it a poor store of value and/or currency.

I’ll probably get downvoted for this but que sera sera.

Bitcoin is at best a speculative investment akin to trading baseball cards. At worst it’s a decentralized Ponzi scheme.

It will stop the spread and die out if everyone gets a vaccination in short period. The virus can't survive outside a host very long so if everyone is immune even for a short period it has no one to spread to. It can be done country by country. Then only people that get the vaccination are allowed inside a country that is immune.
So what about stims like amphetamine or cocaine? They provide even more impulsive tendencies and hyperactivity than a bad nights sleep.

Again: where is your evidence that he was "pushed out" and that he "received a monetary settlement lol"?

I specifically asked you for evidence, which you failed to provide. "Laughing out loud" is not proof, it just highlights that you don't have any.

So I'll ask you again for proof: provide a link to a reputable source that proves that he was pushed out, that he received a monetary settlement, and that Eich and the FAQ are lying.

Otherwise the only thing you've proven is that homophobes will bend over backwards, twist facts, and lie to rationalize and cover up for each other's bigotry. If you can't prove it, then apologize for spreading misinformation.

You're accusing Eich and the board of lying, but now I've asked you to prove that YOU are not lying, and you've failed.

> (ctrl-f dominant)

First link:

Two hits: "Market-Dominant" and "the dominant role of the market in allocating resources". The second one is obviously about being dominated by the market, not dominating it... and the first one as well: "Follow the rules of the market, remain oriented toward application, ..." It's about investing in AI technologies that already have some success in the market rather than pie-in-the-sky projects without application potential.

Bonus: ctrl-f "dominate": "dominated by the market"

Second link:

Two hits, "give markets the decisive role in allocating resources, strengthen the dominant position of enterprises," and "Strengthen the dominant position of enterprises in the market". While that may sound like the government picking winners, within the context of market reform in China it actually refers to strengthening the position of enterprises as opposed to the government. Repeating this slogan ("强化企业主体地位") signals that the government does not intend to return to a command economy (where the government was in the "dominant position") even when it comes to funding strategic development projects.

Googling for policy documents and then ctrl-f'ing for keywords is a good first step, so props to you for doing your own research, but it doesn't help much if you lack the background knowledge to interpret what you find.
> As for tutoring itself: it increases the skill level of both the teacher and the student.

As someone who was a kid in that position, no it did not increased my skill in thing I was supposed to teach at all. That might happen when you are teaching interested peer at similar level, does not happen when you are teaching someone uninterested and someone who has much lower skills.

> For example, toddlers learn primarily by mimicking their parents, replicating their behaviour.

That body of knowledge wears off after you are like 3. Then explicit teaching by parents and other adults becomes much more prominent. And even toddlers are explicit taught a lot.

> Very bad analogy. Yes, for almost all skills, just doing them improves your proficiency.
