This is a perfectly reasonable solution. You might be leaving performance on the table but

1) if perfomance isn't a measurable problem for you, then there's on point on eking the last bit of performance from these allocations

2) it simplifies the code itself

3) sometimes clones are actually efficient, people forget to make their small ADTs Copy

4) if you're learning the language this lets you delay the moment when you have to fully understand the way lifetimes actually behave in complex cases, which means that when you do do that you will have a better grasp of the rest of the language and will be able to form a better mental model of how it fits with other features

It's not exactly the same, but the claim was that it's "much" less bad, and in the presence of microtargeting I don't think that holds up. It's not all the information but it's a lot of important parts. Combine several ad outputs and it's way too much.
I was on the fence about this but the clunky zooming when reading PDFs made me decide not to get it. I think a tablet is better for browsing PDFs.
I'd also like to point out that Einstein was humble, and the myth of Einstein that developed was not his doing. It was the common man, the everyday people and the press of the time that said, incorrectly, "wow! He is so smart, no one can understand what he is doing!" Which is patently false. Non-physicists could not be expected to understand Relativity. But the physicist peers of Einstein didn't have much trouble with it, contrary to Arthur Eddington's famous quote in response to the statement that only 3 people in the world understood Einstein, "I am trying to think who the third would be." False. Physicists of the day that looked at his work understood his work.

To Einstein's credit, one of the hallmarks of his genius, he had an ability to take complex ideas and describe them very simply, so that any might understand.

It is General Relativity that is Einstein's really only major contribution worth noting. And that is enough! Though he was first to describe Special Relativity, had he not, someone else would have within a few years of his publication. But had Einstein not given us General Relativity, it might have taken another 50 or 75 years for that to appear. But it also absolutely would have come from someone else had Einstein never existed.

Einstein is amazing, he is just not at all the myth that everyone thinks he was. He was just a humble theoretical physicist.
Like I said. "I returned a TV that was broken after a bad upgrade" does not count as an amazing feat if that is followed by "and then I got another TV that still updates itself at the mercy of the manufacturer"

Yes, channel list, user list, lots of white space next to the usernames, for my taste there's also excessive spacing between the single message lines, the channel topic line could take up half of the space, and so on.

I know that many modern apps follow this pattern and it may have to do with making things responsive and work well across many different devices and platforms, but I simply cannot be happy with low information density.

Would anyone here be interested in a eink phone running something like WebOS optimized for eink displays? I really feel WebOS was too early and PWAs make the barrier to entry much lower for a WebOS-like device.

> There is a reason economists are scolded left and right, and it's because of ludicrous claims like this.

Ludicrous? Not at all. With evidence of people re-infecting themselves with different strains of coronavirus appearing (https://www.dw.com/en/coronavirus-reinfections-confirmed-in-...), we are looking at years of dealing with a deadly pandemic - which means that anything regarding travel and major events is out of the question for a long time, and that assumes that people religiously vaccine themselves (a bold assumption given the rise of conspiracy myths about "vaccines being used to implant mind control chips" and further absurd).

That in turn has many effects: economies like Croatia which are dependant on foreign tourism will be straight fucked, they will not survive without massive aid - while the EU may prop up at least their governments, the situation for other primarily tourist economies is even worse. The effect will also hit many industries and their supply chains - most obviously plane makers and car makers, both of which are huge cash cows and mega employers, as demand from industry (airplanes) and private consumers falls to rock bottom (people will hoard all money they can).

To make it worse, Chinese demand of its rising middle class has been the thing that propped both their and our economy - in fact, depending on manufacturer, anything from 24-40% of cars sold in 2018 went to China. And that's just cars. With the trade war looming to escalate (which is one of the few things of Trump that were an actually good idea) and that no matter if Biden or Trump wins, China won't prop up the world economy again, Europe is too busy to save its own butts, the US is too much in debt plus its social construct is falling apart left and right...
Economics is much worse than other disciplines as far as endemic conflicts of interest. The problem has more to do with companies writing up claims that serve their interests and getting economists to rubber stamp them without disclosures. Economists were hotly debating among themselves whether to adopt any kind of code of ethics less than 10 years ago. The insularity of other academic fields has its drawbacks, but the kind of behavior economists have broadly engaged in is much more representative of the business world than academia, and a result of their close ties to those interests.

Not justifying mass surveillance but this is where the argument for mass surveillance comes in. Though I would argue about its effectiveness. I remember the recent British incidents claiming the suspect was under watch, but they failed to prevent those. Maybe they are not talking about the ones they prevented, but there are certainly examples where they failed even with info about it.
Is the desktop app available on Linux or does the Windows version work under Wine?
I sympathize with your view a lot and it is, in some way, also the way I (degree in mathematical & theoretical physics) think about it.

Do note, however, that the wavefunction and its collapse are at odds with special relativity and thus cannot be an object of reality. (Provided you're interested in realism to begin with.) Take two entangled electrons, for instance, which get sent out from the origin 0 in opposite directions towards detectors A and B, respectively, which are placed at equal distance from 0.

Now take two observers, one moving in the direction from 0 to B and one moving in the opposite direction. Then, depending on which observer's POV you take, it is either detector A might makes the wavefunction of the two electrons collapse (because the electron 1 reaches detector A and interacts with it before electron 2 reaches detector B) in which case interaction of electron 2 and detector B doesn't do anything. Or, vice versa, it is detector B which makes the wavefunction collapse but then detector A doesn't do anything special.

Either way, if the collapse were actually something physical, both observers would have to agree on the causality chain of events. But they can't. In fact, varying the above setup a bit, they won't even in general agree on whether the wave function of a given system has or has not yet collapsed.

It's funny how when the world ran at 640x480 we had scroll bars, separators and buttons with 3D effects, but nowadays with higher resolutions and bigger screens designers strive for the ultimate clean design. Hidden elements that appear when certain gestures are performed, flat buttons that are indistinguishable from labels/text with a colored background, borders and separators get removed or turned into barely visible thin lines.

I suppose your right. Sometimes I feel like we're living the 30's right now.
When you drop off a package at the post office, you can either wait in line for an agent at the counter to scan your package (only during business hours) and give you a receipt or you can place them in a drop box (open 24/7). The drop box usually has a last pickup time on the label (3pm, 5pm, etc) for when someone actually collects the contents and then scan in the packages to get them into the sorting/tracking system. The problem is that sometimes these bins of packages might sit for a while until someone scans them for the first time. There is a bin behind the wall for the drop box and if it gets full, they pull up a new bin for the drop box so there could be multiple bins of packages that need to be scanned.

You would need to search the tracking number and see when the first scan occurs. Shippo is only looking at shipping label creation date which could be offset quite some time from when the package gets scanned. Large businesses might have enough employees to where they can pack, label, and ship out an order that day but small businesses might have someone hand delivering packages to the post office every other day.

Point of correction on Bell Labs. There was a war going on not a shooting shooty war, but a cold war that was motivating a lot of the research.

In war time the reason there is so much focus and emphasis is because a country is fighting for its survival, it forces efficiency and results in a brutal manner, because if you don't succeeded and out think and out maneuver the enemy people die.

In the Cold War the same tension and feeling of fighting for survival was present.
Ah, from that perspective - vulnerability to exploitation on societal scale by bad actors - both are a severe problem.

Part of the problem is the technical/feature sets of each platform, and a lot of it is the corp management or failure of management.

While the bot/troll hordes on Twitter are a serious problem disrupting many conversations, I'm almost thinking FB is more of a problem because the desinformatsiya can be more specifically targeted, and spread with less visibility outside the particular set of connections.

So, I fully agree, from the POV of preserving democracy, I'd have zero hesitation in fully & finally terminating either/both today, if there were remotely more responsible replacements.

False dichotomy, and a gross misrepresentation of the problem. Homelessness is not caused by low purchasing power, and there are also other factors at play such as mental health issues. You don't fix homelessness even if you start to give away apartments like confetti.

The question is how long the actual problem is going to last, not how long we'll see reverberations from it. We still see reverberations from the Cold War, but that doesn't mean it's wrong to say the Cold War ended in 1991.

This this this a thousand times. And it's not just the missing education - it is graduating into a recession that has really fucked up follow-up effects. The generation that graduated in 2008 ff has still not recovered from the wage cuts.

IMO activist professional athletes have discovered a powerful (but not novel) form of protest: spot strikes.

If they threaten the fundamental revenues of professional sports, it will diminish their political platform. But temporary disruption will produce more attention and drama, which is really all modern broadcast media feeds upon.

I imagine this will get tested in a far more potent market: college and professional football, which has a far more conservative audience.

While the NFL has shown willingness for replacement players for a season with labor strikes, what it cannot get away with is using replacement players for individual games.

It seems like a theoretically correct box filter might not actually be the best filter to use? By approximating it you get a different filter, and whether it's a better filter is something you need to judge by looking at the result.

It looks like the sinc version is still adding a little bit of some higher frequencies (the dampened sine wave), and the approximation doesn't. Maybe those higher frequencies don't actually make things look better?
Interesting feature set but I don't see much value getting it if you already have iPad with Apple Pencil. There are several apps including Apple Notes that convert handwritten text to digital text. Also it doesn't replace a Tablet so will be another gadget taking space. I would rather wait for iPad or another full fledged Tablet to get some of these features.

The main problem is that people need some simple thumb rule. Two meters are better than one. Probably three meters are even better. But at some point it is too inconvenient and people will just ignore a ten meters recommendation.

The Rise of Loom, Roam, & Iterative Design
That is a gross misrepresentation of Jefferson's view

The modern "living document" is nothing like what Jefferson called for, which was all laws, even the constitution be sunsetted after 19 years allowing for the current generation to pass new laws and a new constitution

This is a far cry from "these words mean something else now because we 9 people say they do" which is what the living document of today comes down to.

Jefferson wanted robust debate and the consent of the governed to deiced the rules of their society not 9 people redefining words to fit their personal world view, in fact Jefferson wrote extensively about the problem the power the Supreme court held would have on society
This must be scary reading for Intel, still battling to make anything decent at 10nm (which I know is more like 7nm TSMC, but still, this is another 2 steps on from their 7).

It's a bit worrying how all this innovation, with the possibility (perhaps even likelihood) of completely cornering the market, is all in one country, that is very close to another country, that doesn't want it to be its own country.
This has been done for years, eg with Chelsio NICs, and indeed it can speed things up quite a bit.
