The “Dark Ages” does not mean what most laypeople think it means. Most historians don’t use the term anymore, because it’s too difficult to shake off the misleading connotations it has to the public.
is mastery a new word that's come up in education? i can't help but (red) flag that word in the context of teaching children these days, maybe before the wrong people have said it.
A line of great rhetorical effect but not necessarily great logical worth.

First of all if he is correct that the Swiss had 500 years of democracy and peace then it follows that they produced a working democratic model which at the time was pretty remarkable. However being Harry Lime it is no surprise that he is not correct https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Switzerland

Second of all I don't know what population size of Switzerland and Italy was during the Renaissance but nowadays Italy is about 7 times bigger, so let's assume they had approximately the same difference. Italy of course also has more land area etc. etc. Given these differences I might expect some more impressive people to be drawn from the larger, richer population. And there is of course another differentiator of wealth which is that Italy at the time was the center of European religion, meaning that a lot of wealth was naturally drawn there.

Finally Switzerland, although small, has like every nation had notable personalities as well https://www.houseofswitzerland.org/swissstories/history/7-sw...

on edit: when I say Harry Lime is not correct I mean that Switzerland did not have 500 years of peace and democracy.
Oh thanks. Honestly I've always confused the two so thanks for clarifying which one was made by them. I've only seen that one to be honest.

I also know one of the two also did a paid interview with Billy McFaland so it was another instance of him profiting off this. The other declining to have him due to principle. I again forget which.

Agreed, I was disappointed that I watched the one supporting that media company.

I'm pretty sure I saw evidence or at least rumor that fuckjerry knew it was going to be a colossal fuck up and continued along with it just for money and the making of movie.

That's how it works in Japan. All the major train companies own the land around the major train stations and that's why you see all these department stores named after a train company.

Couldn't the capacity issue be somewhat mitigated by stacking tubes vertically and/or increasing the tube diameter?

As for the curvature issue, there seem to be a couple ways around that. One is to straighten the route to the maximum extent possible (not trivial but not impossible for some routes). The other is to build massive curves and decelerate into them. Again, there are tradeoffs (cost,speed) but it's not impossible. There are just so many variables. A hyperloop could end up being great for some areas and unworkable in others.

Lastly, right of way/land clearance should never be a key constraint. That won't stop us if we really want to build a hyperloop.

I gave Amethyst a serious try about a year ago. I even joined the Gitter intending to contribute, as I needed some more dynamic rendering features, and read the foundational research on the wiki that seemed to inspire the project.

I found the application of the research -- the execution -- too early in development for my needs. I have the feeling it will grow into something more flexible with time, but at least back then, I wasn't able to render to a texture being applied to a mesh. Not being able to get around the deeply integrated ECS was hard, as well.

People are missing the point here. Stealing recycling from the curbside is not a victimless crime. Municipal waste hauling contracts are based on a balance between the cost to dispose of trash and less-valuable recyclables like mixed paper and the profit from high-value recyclables like aluminum and cardboard. If people start skimming all the valuable materials out of the bins, then the net cost to the city goes up, and they’ll have to either raise rates or make it up by cutting costs somewhere else.

The quote is nice but anachronistic. The Swiss were feared mercenaries during the Renaissance and worked for the papal forces. The Swiss Guards at the Vatican are a legacy of this history that is visible today. It seems they were first hired by Julius II, who was successor to Alexander VI aka the Borgia Pope.

This video shows a slime mold doing exploration/discovery and then exploitation: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GwKuFREOgmo

Relating it to the article, it seems we function in a similar way to the mold, but our balance between exploration and exploitation changes as we grow up.

Also reading other comments, it seems like different people have different balances or proportions between the exploration/exploitation modes. I personally am very imbalanced towards exploration; exploitation makes me demotivate and stop doing very quickly.

> That sounds quite dysfunctional.

No,it doesn't. It sounds like the expected outcome of not enforcing an established style with automated tools.

All it takes is someone posting a merge request with a bracket out of place, or tabs instead of spaces which screws layout because yes IDEs have custom definitions and a dude happened to have opened a source file with an editor that wasn't properly configured.

Boom, merge request receives two comments pointing out the bracket and how indentation is off.

Congrats, about 20 minutes of your team's day are wasted because that's the time it takes to receive feedback from the merge request, be briefed on the remarks, go through the code and fix whitespaces, commit your change, push those changes, update the merge request, and wait for a team member to review your update.

No drama. No dysfunctional team. No disagreement, even. But those 20 minutes of your life are lost forever.
Jesus Christ dude. Be nice.

Why not try being encouraging instead of.. whatever that was.
In essence these projects live and die with funding. Donations just aren’t enough to pay the bills for full time developers there isn’t any real alternative.

I wish there was more corporate giving to foundations that could handle this sort of thing but we never built that culture in software unfortunately.

I don’t think it’s fair to frame this negatively at all, really misses the nuance of these situations
From the perspective of a person that has never used Riot nor Element, and didn't mention any name in any conversation ever, I'd say that the excitement and non-dullness come from your preference, not from the name itself.

Do any of these names have excitement? WhatsApp, WeChat, Jabber, Signal? I think not ;)
I often see criticism of the school system like yours. I think it comes from a perspective of a fairly intelligent, self-motivated individual, probably from a family that valued education. However many children lack one or more of those factors. For them the intrinsic motivation is to play video games all day, or talk to their friends, or smoke weed. There is no intrinsic motivation for most children to learn all the subjects taught in school. I think the school system is fairly good at forcing all children to learn at least a little about all subjects. This comes at the price of not optimally supporting students who would do much better in a different kind of system.

Tunnel boring is actually not that expensive, for some projects the raw tunnelling isn’t a big portion of the overall cost. I think for crossrail in London (which includes a fair amount of tunneling ), the tunneling is 10-20% of the total Prüfer cost.

A large amount of cost is in the stations.

In the us, a large amount of cost is inefficiency, projects cost much more than elsewhere, even considering purchasing power parities. Alon levy has written and talked about it extensively, e.g. https://pedestrianobservations.com/2019/03/03/why-american-c...

I regularly try to go read the specs.

They are not built for consumption by end users and it shows. They are mostly legal documents describing all the edge cases. They have ton of fluff. Near no usable example. Are super hard to know which browser has what.

Unfortunately California doesn't have regular property tax thanks to Prop 13: even if values rise, taxes don't.

So high speed rail in California is always going to be a boondoggle.
Yup, if you’ve spent time in Japan, you can see how stores, hotels and attractions are laid out to drive train passenger traffic.

The same was true for streetcars in the USA, many streetcar companies built amusement parks in the countryside at the end of their lines to encourage weekend trips.

Or hook into some wrist heart rate monitors / accelerometers (Garmin, Apple, etc) and correlate heart rate and movement with REM cycles. Wouldn't be surprised if this was already done too but no reason not to try it for a hobby endeavor. Gotta be tons of public research on the correlational methods available on Google Scholar.

What an irrational stretch of logic to conflate natural respiration with deliberately intending to harm someone. Breathing freely doesn't harm you, get over yourself or maybe get a therapist because this is an unhealthy degree of neuroticism and little science. And none of the solutions proposed come close to achieving the supremely simplistic view of a radical ideologue.

Writing to a file should be transactional. It either succeeds, or gets rolled back. Journaling filesystems implement it as a crash protection mechanism, but an API where you can commit changes without closing, and can roll back explicitly, would be nice.

Writing to a socket is unlike writing to a local file, and cannot offer such guarantees.
I found Ada Palmer's post on the Renaissance a couple months ago to be a good read, though it's a bit long for one sitting and there are a few tangents: https://www.exurbe.com/black-death-covid-and-why-we-keep-tel...

A taste of what you might get out of it, from the preface:

> This post is for you if you’ve been wondering whether Black Death => Renaissance means COVID => Golden Age, and you want a more robust answer than, “No no no no no!”

> This post is for you if you’re tired of screaming The Middle Ages weren’t dark and bad! and want somewhere to link people to, to show them how the myth began.

> This post is for you if you want to understand how an age whose relics make it look golden in retrospect can also be a terrible age to live in.

> And this post is for you if want to ask what history can tell us about 2020 and come away with hope. Because comparing 2020 to the Renaissance does give me hope, but it’s not the hope of sitting back expecting the gears of history to grind on toward prosperity, and it’s not the hope for something like the Renaissance—it’s hope for something much, much better, but a thing we have to work for, all of us, and hard.
> an enclosed space like a carriage, you have no escape route

You make it sound like she was cornered and in mortal danger. The carriage was crowded with people. Yes, he was (likely) a creepy dirtbag who deserved to be punished. STABBING SOMEONE WITH A FOOT OF SHARP STEEL IS NOT "MELLOW"! It's nuclear. You either have a frightfully diminished understanding of the potential lethality of stabbing someone, or you have a psychotically draconian image of justice.
Don't you think the data from Tesla's computers on wheels could be more accurate than the second hand data (accident occurs, is written down, then provided to the government agency) used by the NHTSA and other researchers. Surely there is some loss here in unreported incidents that Tesla would not lose, making the NHTSA reports actually better than the reality potentially.

This happens with cans and bottles here in San Francisco as well because they can be redeemed for the CRV. People rifle through the blue bins on my street every week. I assume maybe recycling pickup would be cheaper without this. Meanwhile turning in these bottles myself for the deposit would be a huge nightmare because the centers are only in far-flung parts of the city without easy access to transit.
That’s gotta be one of my favourite movies of all time. This and the printer killing scene are hilarious.
Right. I thought the whole expectation of a company coming and taking a bunch of waste and recyclables from you for either free or low-cost was that they were profiting from your waste.
I wonder if EINTR can also happen on macOS? macOS is certified UNIX, and the post talks about Unix in general, that's why I wonder.

I've inspected the family of fopen() functions (fread, fwrite), and they don't handle EINTR. Do they delegate this task to the caller? Or that EINTR doesn't exist there? I mean, the error code itself is used, and by quickly skimming XNU sources I can see it's used in some NFS code, but can it happen when reading from or writing to local storage (hard disk)?

Edit: some minutes later, I can see that e.g. libstdcxx supports EINTR, so maybe it can happen on macOS as well (the xwrite() function):

I think that could have been worded much more nicely, but I get the OPs objection - it's sad kids are getting taught "this is the way to do things" and have no idea there was a better cleaner way.
