You nailed it. Is the same material.

The same that killed hundred thousands of people in a second in our recent past. Is unsafe stuff by nature. The stupidity of people at charge to see the problem or to invest serious money into fixing weak points, makes it even more dangerous, but the main problem remains: They never were able to fix their s*t, and "but, but, more people die by cars" and "we destined one whole page to our emergency plan" are still the wrong answers.

IIRC search engines also use the text of the incoming link and surrounding prose. So it is quite possible that enough people on Reddit (or any other discussion site) said "The person in this episode looks like Jim Carrey $link" the the search engine picked up on it.

What empirical evidence is supposed to sway me in favour of genocide?
Kind of... but, to quote the grandposter, I don't "have to give up my editor, my SCM, my code review practises, my deployment strategies, my whole way of working." It's just JavaScript, I get to bring my React/Vue/Vanilla.js workflow and the kajillion (for better or worse) npm libraries.

And, I get a double-clickable app that runs on Windows, MacOS, and Linux. Last I looked there wasn't an open-source way to do this with smalltalk.

I don't think it should bother you. It makes perfect sense for Wikipedia to focus on collecting established knowledge. I want my Wikipedia articles to contain the known facts, with citations and proven sources. I do not want theories or research of some individuals interspersed with the established facts.
Can those numbers be trusted?

Do you know how they would hash a recursive function? Or where I can learn about this? Thanks!

EDIT: I am asking more about the hashing function than about the language. Because if there is a recursive function, that means that one would need the hash of itself in order to compute its own hash. One can probably try to compute a hash iteratively until a fixed-point is achieved.

EDIT2: but... it is probably a bad idea to do that.
When I ask why something isn't working with typescript in vscode at work people recommend restarting the language server with a keybind.

I'd send them a table flip emoji but im pretty sure they wouldn't get it, they legitimately think they're giving me good helpful advice.

They simply don't understand that if you need to restart something, said something is fucking broken.
It turns out that the thou is a great division for metal working. The even metric are just a little too course, or a little too fine for most metal work. Either way though machinists do great work in either system, to the same fine standards.

Disclaimer: I do not (yet) have my Pinephone.

> 1) Is a Pinephone a viable alternative either iOS or Android?

A Pinephone will never support all the proprietary apps (Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, Fortnite, etc). In order to be viable, I would say a phone needs to support phone calls, SMS, MMS, camera, GPS/Navigation, and have a fast and snappy web browser. Currently the Pinephone supports everything except MMS (which is necessary for "texting" pictures and groups). Because you will not have access to FB Messenger, Whatsapp, Instagram, Snapchat, etc on a Pinephone, you will have to you SMS/MMS for communication if you want to interoperate with people from the mainstream.

2) For T-Mobile based carriers in the US, you just stick in the simcard.
That's what I'm wondering myself. I've been taking more time to adequately prepare for faang, because as you said why not work for the company that pays more if the interview is nearly the same?
> We should fix our schools, not translate programming languages. The technology sector speaks English. You can’t escape this language.

Seconded. Additionally I never met anyone who could learn the concepts of programming, but who would be stopped by 20 keywords because they're in English. Half of the words when Italians discuss IT are already in English (Internet, Router, Switch, Server, Wireless/Wifi, Smartphone), or some bastardized mix ("formattare", "reboottare", "debuggare").

And honestly, despite how it might disgust the purists of the language (who will even insist on using "Instradatore" for router, "Servente" for server, etc), I believe this is a good thing. It reduces the barrier to communication and collaboration, and you are ALREADY learning "the language" of IT, may as well have it nearly universal and get more out of your effort.

Writing code in a language other than English (I mean translating the actual code keywords, not the strings and comments) also reduces the chances someone will help you on StackOverflow by a good 95%. And many excellent books or tutorials will be less accessible to you until someone translates them.
The primary advantage of metric is that everyone else uses it. The decimal is useful, but fractions have their place as well, so there isn't a clear win.
Countries can be divided into two groups:

* Those with the metric system

* Those who used German scientists and engineers to get to the moon.
Learning how to code is trivial next to the years it takes to learn a natural language. Tiny unambiguous vocabulary and syntax. Objectively, a programming language is a much smaller thing to learn that's simple by design.

If you polled people who learning programming and a second language in adulthood, I'd wager the vast majority of them would say learning the natural language was harder.

Of course "learning to program" is extremely imprecise. Learning enough of a language to use its control flow constructs is a much different bar than learning enough to write an Emacs plugin or whatever you might have in mind here.
Making Navigation Work (2017)
I think this is fairly simple answer to this question, but yes, I think it'll always be subjective.

Every language has trade offs, they prioritize certain features over others. This is naturally going to make some languages better than others for particular tasks.

Sorry, really basic answer here but I'm definitely curious what others think on this as well. Perhaps the above is my pessimist view on it :)
Cyber Threats and E-Commerce Websites
This is all true. But also the numerous copyright holders of the Linux kernel could also choose to sue.
The problem is that without strong evidence you should assume that all information you read can't be trusted. This seems to be the root cause of all of the election meddling, fake news and similar social issues that are "popular" these days. The only real solution is to teach critical thinking. However teaching critical thinking to the masses is a very hard problem.

So instead of funding schools we just spend money passing laws that verge on censorship.

> In the past when I see people using Ubuntu, I always wondered why?

Because I don't have a wired internet connection, and my wifi adapter requires proprietary drivers. If I could just download and install from an ISO like I can with Ubuntu, I'd switch to Debian in a heartbeat, but I don't feel like having to do manual workarounds just to get a running Linux distro.
> Seems like a better testing suite is in order

The cry of every neuroscientist! The trick is how to make an ex vivo brain simalog at all.

Currently we use the brains of other animals. It gets you somewhere. I mean, you can deal with how the heart moves the brain about, how grooming and eating move the brain, you can even get seizures and ischemic events working with the tech. But, those last few percent is where all of it matters. Kinda like viewing an eclipse: the difference between 99.99% and 100% totality is everything.

And that's kinda the problem. Figuring out all the edge cases is really hard and time consuming. And making a faux-brain simalog is probably harder than just going slowly.
Measuring distance by walking is pretty common, but I don't think making strides of 1 m is common, lol. Usual stride is about 0.7-0.8 m, 1 m is pretty huge and uncomfortable unless you are really tall with long legs. You just know what is your average stride and do the calculations. I've never seen any country folks do distance measurement by placing their feet one in front of the other. So, yeah, I guess only people who do that must be huge fans of imperial system with (quite uncommon) foot length of 1 imperial foot.

Metric system? In 1600? Would be great; sadly, about 200 years off.
Just to clarify one of your points regarding Google's involvement: XLnet, and the underlying TransformerXL technology, did have Google researchers involved:

* https://ai.googleblog.com/2019/01/transformer-xl-unleashing-...

* https://arxiv.org/pdf/1901.02860.pdf

* https://arxiv.org/pdf/1906.08237.pdf

My understanding is that a CMU student interned at Google and developed most of the pieces of TransformerXL, which formed the basis of XLNet. The student and the Google researcher further collaborated with CMU researchers to finalize the work.

(For the record, I think the remainder of your points do not match my understanding of NLP, which I do research in, but I just really wanted to clarify the XLNet story a bit).

MDN vs. a random resource on the net...

Honestly, the article that you link to has a few h1s and only one of them is for the article itself, while the rest seem like ads and not equally important content. I can continue pointing contradictions in what the author says, but the article is rather long.

It exists in the web UI too. You need to select the precise time and day, not just the general time of the year, but you can tell it when you want to depart or arrive. See my screenshot below. By default, the dark blue section will have "Leave now" selected.

Regarding the results, I feel like I'm better at finding things when I have no idea what I'm actually looking for. However, when I know what I'm looking for, it seems more difficult at times, I can't say it was easier before, though.
But what if the scientist feels pressured to provide results and cuts corners to get those results. That may be something intagible but still have an effect on the decisions he/she makes. It would be next to impossible to prove that and in term protect the person, so the only way would be to outright ban such tests.
The entirety of your comment shows what's wrong with fractional reserve banking and centralized banking. It's a system predicted on debt which can never be paid back.
Smalltalk enthusiast for twenty years here. I jumped out of the balloon almost ten years ago now and sold my soul to the mediocrity of pragmatic polyglotism.

I miss Smalltalk. I miss it's clean syntax. Were there times when keyword syntax got odd, yes. But less so than list base call syntax (and even weirder with the hybrid list(keyword) keyword messages.

Was everything's done via messages all the way down always the bees knees. There were some edge cases (zip?) were it was difficult to figure out where the behavior really should be bound. But the trade off was simplicity and consistency. None of this why is len() a function and upper() a method nonsense.

I miss the simple syntax and pervasive use of Smalltalk closures.

I miss the tooling. The RefactoringBrowser was one of the most amazing code environments out there. I found code faster. I authored code faster. I changed code faster.

What have I appreciated as I've wandered through the wreckage of modern in use systems?

Namespaces. There were some Smalltalk experiments here, but they were late and varied. My favorite was probably that of Smalltalk/X. I mostly like pythons namespaces: "we should do more of those". Not a fan of pythons shadowing rules though and have never decided whether it's namespaces and shadowing are codependent or independent.

I kind of like typing. I remember I was skeptical of Strongtalk typing at first, but I've come to appreciate that style of annotation. Where typing always seems to break down for me is containers. I am just not a fan of generics. They are to typing what preprocessers end up becoming, a sort of "deep state Illuminati" of the program. Gilad hinted at a proposed solution to this a while back, but I never saw a follow up.

And of course cheep tooling. I don't mind paying for things. But Smalltalk business model was about platform entrapment. There was no incremental. No choice. You had to choose the whole party up front.

Well, I think they're trying to stimulate mucosal immunity, rather than trigger MHC presentation. But yes, more research is needed to determine effectiveness.

KDE's browser engine wasn't called WebKit, but you're correct that WebKit began by forking it. That doesn't contradict my point, though.
In retrospect I should have read it first, I just ran a quick search on standard lingo i.e. "air gap", to see if that was the case, and I assumed it wasn't when the search yielded no results.
That's a fun bit. Someone did this with sentiment analysis on texts and clustering. They looked at how sentiment changed during the book (the curve) and then they clustered them to identify 6-12 archetypical story "curves".
Surprisingly light on version control best practices.

1. Big commits make it easier to evade code reviews, submit pull requests close to the deadline

2. Commit messages should be generic and misleading

3. Logical units of change should be split up between many non consecutive commits, big commits should contain multiple different features and bugfixes

4. Have bots commit to version control frequently

5. Keep multiple copies of the same files for backup

6. Rename and move around files frequently

7. Reuse filenames liberally
The cheapest candy bar phones available started having 3rd gen (WCDMA) network support around 2010, so GSM-only handsets should be out of active use. Of course the classic monochrome Nokia phones will cease working once GSM is shut down.

On the other hand there must be quite a lot of embedded devices using only GSM. For example, this year the elevator maintenance company offered our housing company GSM emergency phone units to replace landline-based ones. WCDMA-supported units would have cost a few thousand euros more.
Which is more likely, asteroid mining or governments printing money
If you don't like that situation then look around for another device without this limitation. Besides, you can always get a developer account and run whatever you want on it.
This comment makes me feel a little bit sad.

It doesn't take too much breadth of knowledge to recognize those all as different kinds of literal syntax, even if you don't know the exact details. #(...) for some sort of collection, probably a list or vector, $a and #a for different kinds of atomic value, even if it's hard to guess whether any one of them represents a symbol, a character literal, a perl-style variable reference, or something else.

If such prosaic syntax is really so unfamiliar-looking nowadays, it really speaks to a major gap in how people are taught about programming. Comparable to if it were common for younger mechanical engineers to not even recognize a slide rule when they see one.
Except that C-style syntax existed before C.
5 vs 8000 is quite a leap to make.
This article misrepresents just how much of the economy it's made up of these IOUs. If you deposit $100 and there's a 10% reserve requirement, that doesn't mean the bank can loan out $90. Rather, they can loan out $1000 since the $100 is 10% of that.
I’d say “one eighty-four” but of course the problem is that in german we mix up the order of the tens and ones.

And in fact so does English — it’s twenty-four but fif-teen (five ten, not ten five). In german we do that until 99 (nine and ninety).
Agreed. MDN is very dependable as a reliable reference.

But W3Schools is more likely to have the exact example or easy to use little tool I need in the moment.
I can't answer the question, but I find it exciting that we're in this age where we can have these discussions. Maybe in the future programming languages will consolidate, and people will fondly look back at these times of experimentation as a "golden age", as when Ritchie and Thompson were creating Linux, or Xerox PARC / Apple were inventing the computer mouse UX.
During a salvia trip I once saw the universe like this. I had been sitting on this conveyor-belt-like structure my entire life, which was the 4th component(time) in that 4-Vector. The conveyor belt moved me along perpindicular to space, which I have been observing my entire life from the constant speed of time. Only on this trip was I able to look "down" and realize that I was riding on time.

The interesting thing was that I had this feeling that the other elements of the vectors were all also conveyor belts, moving in a single direction. X, Y, Z(and an infinite of other more subtle scalars) were each their own belts, with entities of a very different hyperdimensional sort riding along them. Essentially, they were each moving at a constant non-changing rate along a single dimension(X, Y, or Z) and because of this, they used time as we do a spatial dimension.

Think about it like this.

Imagine that a trillion years ago you were stationary, and time didn't exist. SUDDENLY you and all the stuff nearby you got pushed in space along the X axis at a speed of 100000000000 km/hr.

You kept moving along the X axis at a relatively constant rate with the stuff around you, such that the X-axis became a constant for you, while the other spatial dimensions were your degrees of freedom.

In this scenario, time is the X axis for you.

I noticed that there were entities moving perpendicular to our concept of time, treating our X-axis as their conveyor belt moving them along at a constant rate.

All a drug trip of course, and I don't know much about physics, however, this experience has shaped how I concieve of time and space.

I agree. While i love love love MDN, i can not deny that W3School caters to either beginners, or - in my case - someone looking for the quick answer; and they do a decent job in that regard. If i need to dive deep into a topic, yes, MDN is the better destination. But, sometimes it takes a little extra effort to get the quick answer from MDN. This is not the same for every single page on MDN of course. There were a few that i encountered that DID provide that quick, helpful answer...but just not as much as w3School.

Before folks start to hate, i actually (happily) donate yearly to Mozilla, partly because i 100% believe in all that they do, but also because if there are gaps in Mozilla's offerings, i want to pay to help resolve them. I pay nothing to w3school - except indirectly when they serve up ads of course...but absolutely want MDN to be around for the long term, hence my constant donations to Mozilla.
In a vacuum, it should be 5040, which has a uniquely abundant collection of factors. Still, natural evolution of units via surveyor's units did pretty well to turn the Roman mile of 5000 feet into 5280, which has a pretty solid collection of factors.
