I'll add to my reply:

Depending on where you live, copyright is a part of civil law, not criminal law. Which makes all the difference.

It means that the act of copying itself isn't outlawed. You won't be prosecuted by public authorities for owning a device that makes copies, or having made copies of a work of art to which you don't own the intellectual rights.

Think about it, if you decide to record an episode of Friends on your PVR, didn't you just make a copy? And does that mean that law enforcement could search your house because there's a suspicion you committed a criminal offence?

The Berne convention is literally what it says: the author owns the exclusive right to authorize reproduction. Copyright is about discerning who holds the authority to sanction reproduction. It's not about prohibiting the act of reproduction.

It means that you're free to make a copy of a copyrighted work, and ask permission after the fact. Public authorities don't come into this, unless the rights holder feels that their exclusive rights were violated, and decides to sue you in civil court.
Can and "well supported and reliable enough that apple does not advise against it" are two different things tho, when it comes to day to day production use at a company.
Mostly stuff you see in other modern BASIC variants. Like line numbers removed. Labels for GOSUB. Multiline scope for things like IF THEN ELSE, etc... GOTO should be removed as well. And I'd like to see a BASIC specifically developed for making games and also working for iOS, Android, ... Perhaps such a BASIC language already exists by the way, I haven't done a whole lot of research on this.
Finally Confirmed Vitamin D Nearly Abolishes ICU Risk in Covid-19
I've heard American universities do a lot more hand holding than their European counterparts (not sure how this manifests). When I went to uni (and left home) it definitely helped me mature - I had to worry about cleaning, buying groceries, feeding myself, doing laundry, etc.

I also had the freedom of nobody knowing or caring where I went and how late I came home (=greater responsibility for planning my time).

But I understand what you mean - i had a childhood friend who went to a 2 years vocational school after highschool (during which he lived at home) and then enlisted in the army for 4-5 years (in a non-combat technical role). I suspect the army basically takes care of you when you live on base because afterwards he moved back home & I got the feeling he pretty much stayed stuck in a child role for years later (may be complicated by mental health issues).

I think never having had to really be completely responsible for himself held him back.
Thinking about it, it obviously makes sense. These are people who want to be approached by anyone and everyone and will sell to the highest bidder.
Home maintenance alone is complex enough to require an exobrain; might as well be a software one.

Same goes for keeping more than a handful of healthy, positive friendships.
I believe the argument goes like this: assume that conscious agents can be simulated (that is, consciousness is computable). What is computation? If sudden wind arranges leaves on the ground into a pattern that looks like “2 + 2 = 4”, was there a computation? We would usually answer “no”, as computation, like many other things, requires causal connection. But Greg Egan states that “there is nothing more to causality than the correlations between states”.

Now, a deterministic simulation can be represented as a series of states recorded on a medium. Then you, an observer, can rewind and inspect what’s going on there, similar to reading a book or watching a movie. But the inhabitants of the simulation couldn’t care less about you observing their states. They already “exist”. In that case, why do we need the states of the simulation be recorded on the “film” in the order that makes sense for an outside observer? Surely a random arrangement would not affect the “simulation”. The same goes for the encoding.

Now, if the arrangement doesn’t matter, and the encoding doesn’t matter, why there needs to be a specific physical medium at all? Surely somewhere in the Universe you can find arrangements of “dust” that “encode” the same states (in no particular order).
Anarchists (as opposed to thugs and hooligans who riot in the streets) are simply people who think that violence (or threats of violence) towards people who did nothing wrong to anyone is not morally permissible.

This immediately makes State impossible because it fundamentally relies on taxation. Taxes are, of course, are collected under the threat of violence.

Now, how to exactly organize society which doesn't rely on violence towards innocent people to operate is a matter of much debate. The most logically sound (in fact much sounder than any existing current State laws) legal theory for such society was advanced by Murray Newton Rothbard. His "The Ethics of Liberty" is absolute must read to anyone who wants to claim any familiarity with modern political thought.
sounds like a paid advertisement.. but then again, competition is good. don't want libreoffice to get stagnant.
Try not be blinded by political scheming, China is not trying to conquer the world and US is also not trying to bring peace, the game is not as black and white as you would believe and the "good guys" will be shown as less good in 50 years when the secrets will be reveled and propaganda will switch to something else.

Not cooperating in space related topics is as stupid as US demanding not to use mathematics or physics developed by China. Science should not care about the politics of the current dudes in power.

UK civil service users third party identity confirmation for jobs, companiess like Experian and the Post Office - you know companies that leak personal data like a sieve.

Anyway, one of the verifiers is past addresses, so this sort of thing could prove a problem when applying for jobs in the UK.

Tories gotta tory - put a private firm between people and job applications, demand they give all their ID data to that firm. Oh, and the firms all have recent mass data leaks.

It's a core part of several gov departments (passports, drivers licensing, benefits, taxes) to be able to ID people and the gov have all the data with which to do it. Crazy.

Yeah there are obviously iPhones in Europe but they all have WhatsApp on them.

iMessage defaults to SMS on Android- and SMS is legacy technology in Europe. Thats what stopped iMessage gaining traction.

Are you saying void is not a type?
I can see how solving for perfect cooperation can leave people irritated. That's why most algorithms used in OSs takes latency, fairness etc. into account.

Algorithms in between might work better in real life, e.g. people routes can be adjusted slightly to make paths better overall, but no adjustment (away from greedy) is made that the average pilot would find overly unfair or unpractical.

Resolve.conf is a blessing and a curse. On the one hand, you've got a file that nearly every flavour of Linux will use for DNS resolution with a standardised format. On the other hand, you've got four hundred network managing programs that all need to be told separately that you don't want to use them to manage the file for you because you want to set it up yourself.

Makes me wonder if the file options should be extended contain a config option to indicate what program manages the file so that others know to keep their hands off. Right now there's comments in there, but those comments are often hardly machine readable.

As a Mac user who has not fully bought into their ecosystem this is an important productivity tool for me. Also I find it sad how such basics are missing from OSX.
So just the opposite of what the comment you replied to suggested:

'void' is a type, but in C values of the type void are not first class. Ie a function can return a value of type void, but you can't assign it to a variable.
But the problem stems from their use of iMessage and Apple not doing an Android app.

Increased productivity is not just useful for consumerism. It might allow us to retire earlier or have shorter work weeks, for example.
So what this does is introduce a (configurable) buffer between chained async generators. So this does not introduce any kind of multi processor parallelism, just makes an async generator easily be able to wait on multiple iterations in parallel. So basically the need for queues is abstracted away, looks quite nice if your use case requires something like this
Fun short fiction story on how predictive systems whose predictions influence what they might predict might evolve: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/SwcyMEgLyd4C3Dern/the-parabl...

In this very theoretical scenario, left to its own (with its objective function "minimizing prediction error") Google Maps could end up making predictions that make traffic more predictable, without anybody being able to notice anything is going wrong.

A similar concept could be applied to the infamous "Youtube algorithm" for predicting user interests, might end up just showing videos that make users more predictable
I agree, I think your parent is confusing symptoms for causes.
Check out steermouse.jp. Solves the same problem. Been using it for many years. Replaced crappy Razer software on my Mac.

As a programmer, I would agree. So much so that I find it easier to remember the concept than the name.

But so it goes. People like their own name on things for masturbatory purposes and are willing to tolerate other people's masturbation to do it. At great cost to us all.

Well, I guess I know what I’m doing the next time I’m in Europe (or even just their airspace?).
One way to attack this in a larger scale is to get the responsible politicians somehow outed in media by any of these databases. For example one media article that got good spread here was when the newspaper bought the GPS-tracking information for a politician and wrote about it (they did not publish it, no need to).

Funny, I actually have some fib benchmarks for my RISC-V emulator! It uses fib(40), but I added one for 20. Interestingly, that is the one benchmark that LuaJIT crushes my emulator in, so I'm still working on beating it, but i don't really have any plan. :)

libriscv: fib(20) median 317ns lowest: 310ns highest: 356ns
luajit: fib(20) median 146ns lowest: 145ns highest: 170ns
lua5.4: fib(20) median 631ns lowest: 598ns highest: 694ns

The point isn’t that anyone would want to write code like this. It’s to define rules that establish what the language implementation is allowed to assume about pointers when performing optimisations, and consequently, what operations code is allowed to perform without running into UB. The best way to study such rules is with edge cases like this.

It’s like a trolley problem in a way. The situation may be unlikely, but better have an answer for it ready instead of replying ‘how dare you ask such questions’.

I think there are people who may be unable to act rationally in any situation, but I don't think force will solve their problems and I do think situations could arise where I end up as one of them. I think humans are largely a product of their environment, and most of the "bad" ones had experiences that made them act that way. They are still capable of acting rationally.

Superior to others is "special," even if you consider the majority to be superior.

> China doesn’t cooperate with other agencies largely because they have no desire to.

Which nation refuses to sign more international treaties than any other and is actively working to retroactively disengage and absolve themselves of the responsibility they signed up for? Hint: It's not China. [1]

China was explicitly banned from the ISS program[2], you'll let the Saudis who stone adulterers to death in the streets but for some reason China can't possibly participate in the only hope for humanity to unite as one.

China's space program is offering a lot to the scientific world and they keep pushing forward despite US efforts to stop everyone on Earth collaborating with them. Their lunar base and farside radio telescope plans have some in the interantional community willing to give a big fu to those from overseas who demand we ignore what they are doing.

That stands out as a red flag in this day and age, really. Having a simple account with your real name that has a few dog pics is far more stealthy than claiming you really don't interact with social media at all.
Are you sure you haven’t?

I’m in Canada which has about 35 civilian guns per hundred people and thanks to the licensing system we know it works out to about 7.5% of the country having licenses here. A lot of the people that own guns would probably surprise you too—for instance, my 65 year old gray haired aunt that works as a nurse in a care home for old people has a cabinet at home with 6 or 8 guns in it.

And obviously the ownership rates among Americans are, uh, quite high as well. Given the heavy North American audience here you’ve almost certainly gotten into a conversation with at least a few gun owners.

Firearms ownership is a way of life or a core part of the identity of some people, but for the vast majority of owners it is not. For those people, it’s rarely something you’d find out about unless there was a reason to. I do tend to bring it up when the conversation steers anywhere towards that direction because I like to try and be an ambassador for the normal, responsible people that own firearms as a contrast to certain vocal minorities, but most people seem to prefer to just fly under the radar.

I’ve got an old (1955) Russian military surplus SKS, a Czech bolt action .22 (CZ455) and a Turkish (ATA Arms) Remington 870 12 gauge pump shotgun clone with a tube magazine and a 14 inch barrel sitting around the house. If it interests you at all, feel free to ask anything you want to know.
I like to use Linux network namespaces for fun and profit. You can for example run a program with it's own IP/network.
Network namespaces doesn't however work with network managers, systemd-resolv et.al. because network namespaces create separate unique mounts for /etc/resolv.conf

I'm a non-native English speaker, and I struggle to remember that Bloom filters are named after a person. I have at times, when coming across the term, ended up wondering how they're supposed to relate to whatever "bloom" the name refers to.

I don't think it really "proves the point", though, except for the point that sometimes names are confusing. So maybe it would be nicer if someone had happened to consider whether a specific naming might be confusing, but that's not the same as "names that aren't directly descriptive are automatically bad".
Better yet, one that sends paper opt-outs by registered mail to maximize removal cost and receipt confirmation. It’s not expensive when there’s 100 names in 8pt font in each envelope.

He seems to have moved on a bit from startup stuff. Looking at his essays the most recent startup one seems to be "default alive or default dead" Oct 2015 which is fine in itself but a while ago.
Yep, these apps require you to put in effort to use them. Ironically, you've got to make a habit of using the app in the first place...
I know exactly how you feel since I'm in a similar boat. I'd suggest targeting other English speaking app stores (It's not in my country's app store though my language is English). Other countries are dealing with this very differently, for example, we can gather here but you can only have so many guests in your house at a time.

I would ignore the US app store, just because of the polarization and politicization of the virus.

> In 2013, officials at NASA Ames prohibited Chinese nationals from attending Kepler Science Conference II.

> China has been barred from the ISS since 2011, when Congress passed a law prohibiting official American contact with the Chinese space program due to concerns about national security. “National security,” of course, is the lingua franca excuse for any country to do anything it jolly well wants to do even if it has nothing to do with, you know, the security of the nation.

The truth is that China is willing and has been actively cooperating with other space agencies.

I'm still not sure if it's a bad thing but it's definitely different. When I use a journal/list/daily routine, I feel like I'm in control but when I use an app I feel like I'm giving that up to someone/something else. When I miss a goal that I wrote in a journal then I'm only letting myself down but when I'm using an app I feel worse about messing up.

I don't know how justified those feelings are but at a certain point I think it's worth sitting down and asking whether the app makes you feel worse about the mistakes than the mistakes themselves.
