High dimensional GAs are a relatively hot topic of research but something we haven't aimed to target with this library (mostly because its not our main research area). My personal preference for working with high d algebras would be Stéphane Breuils and Vincent Nozick's GARAMON library (https://github.com/vincentnozick/garamon) (https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00006-019-0987-7), it is efficient and easy to use, and the authors are very friendly and helpful. You could also try out TbGAL (https://github.com/Prograf-UFF/TbGAL), I haven't used it myself but the work of the Leandro Fernandes is typically high quality.

Happened to me as well, on several occasions.

My dad passed away just before New Year a few months ago. At the time I thought him going to hospital was going to be yet another scare, and he should just get his act together and eat properly and exercise. Never got around to it, and his last words were some gibberish.

I felt like maybe there should have been proper last words, but looking back there were. His terminal stage had actually started a few years before, at a bypass surgery. At the time he told me that if the surgery didn't work, he'd be happy to die. Life had treated him just fine, no big issues with anyone to report. Happy with having three kids and a couple of grandchildren. Nothing left to do.

And so the next three years passed with him not doing anything the doctors had told him to do, and we got used to periodic ambulance calls (heart attacks, blood sugar incidents). Somehow he made his life summary come true, nothing more to do.

On another occasion, one of my high school classmates passed away from cancer at 29. I knew he'd had it before, but then it seemed to pass, and being young I thought it wasn't a huge problem because he seemed chipper and full of zest. He had a girlfriend and a career. When it came back I figured I'd drop by to see him, but in a few weeks on my holiday. Ended up being sooner, for his funeral.

I have used Asyncio for an API I built for https://www.abstractapi.com/ in order to be able to manage high load and avoid being locked by network latency.

It has been painful and I almost thought about migrating to Amazon Lambda to distribute the load but it feels like a bad use case for Lambda when you're actually only want to perform async stuff and not lock a full thread.

SCan't believe we still don't have a proper async lib for Python in 2020. Still have to test Curio but the whole thing makes me seriously reconsider which language I'll use for my next project. Async is something I need to handle more and more.

True fairness is justice: Everybody involved agrees that everybody involved has the best possible material outcome for themselves, even under permutations of perspective.

Concretely, imagine some judge Judy who is judging some dispute between some Alice and Bob. The article explores how we can evaluate Judy for fairness. However, justice is when Judy, Alice, and Bob all agree on an outcome which none of the three would change, even if they were to be forced to swap bodies in some unrelated way after the outcome is assigned.

I got voted into the floor for saying "you're a better elixir programmer if you also learn erlang," which is a simple fact.

I do think this. I think that most micro-language communities are bizarrely intolerant of criticism, and unwilling to cope with the idea that every language has problems and that you can only get good at a language if you face them with open eyes.

Imagine a C programmer getting offended if you warned someone learning C "by the way, if you're doing string parsing, you're gonna have a bad time."

Why focus so much on the word? People reach for one of the few common words we have for “badly-behaved corporation” to express their criticism of Amazon practices, not by hawkishly watching market share graphs until one line gets too high. Maybe there is a better word, but the problems people experience are still there and are still real.
You're taking what the media already does for the powerful in aggregate, and predicting it will be applied to particular parties as well. I think that the dynamic is different there, and the amount of polarization in the media will depend strongly on the polarization between the parties.

I agree that it is another layer of complexity, but when it works well it's a really good layer of abstraction for user space programs to interact with the kernel. It's only when issues arise that the extra layer brings in more complexity. And like GP stated, that's mostly an issue of time needed to eliminate the most serious bugs and for edge cases to be well understood and documented.

there were plenty of growing pains at first, but the transition period for any project looking to replace the old init system was going to be a headache no matter what. It does take some time to grok, and it feels monolithic at first, but I actually think that's a good thing. It's composed of many separate binaries that individually conform to the unix philosophy, but they're all distributed, maintained, and released together. You still have tons of configurations options, but you can be confident that standard systemd components are always going to play nicely with each other.

The only issue I've really had are the binary logs. If the indexes get messed up it's a pain to access the logs even if though the actual files rarely have issues with corruption. But it's fairly easy to forward messages to syslog if you need.
So what you're saying is you think 1984 is the ideal outcome?

Tailwind comes with a default color palette. Each color has a 9 shades (100, 200,... 900) and the colors can be used for various elements, such as background, border, font, etc. For example, you can set a border to the 500 shade indigo using the class "border-indigo-500".

https://tailwindcss.com/docs/customizing-colors#default-colo...

You can also create your own custom colors with whatever names you want, whether color names or something like "primary" as the primary color of your theme. For each you can set shades as well.
From my experience with C99: if the struct size is 16 bytes or less, the values will be packed into registers. But true as soon as the struct grows bigger, the entire content will be passed on the stack.

IMHO this sort of named arguments "easter egg" is fine for big "option bag structs" passed to functions that are not performance critical (or for small struct <= 16 bytes). For other cases, regular args are better.

OTH it seems like passing normal args also spills over into the stack very soon (only 4 registers used?):

https://www.godbolt.org/z/Mz9MTG

The main difference seems to be that normals arguments "spill over", while passing structs by value puts everything on the stack once the threshold size is passed.

B2B consultant here for 30 years weighing in with broad truths:

* If you are waiting on leads, you die. You create leads -- every day, as your top business priority -- by working to inform and educate people. You deliver value now (information, education) to capture value (a sale) later.

* This is going to mean talking to strangers. It's going to mean experimenting with ads, native advertising, figuring out which channels your buyers frequent, etc. The failure-to-success ratio will be high and that, as painful as it is, is fine. It's part of the process.

* As others have indicated: Don't assume you can just hire someone to do sales or marketing. If the founders don't fully understand the value proposition and the pain points of potential clients, it's very hard to succeed.

* You're new and that means you're likely small. You're also specialized. Consider throwing effort at partnering with larger players who have cracked the code, have a steady stream of clients but don't have your expertise. Subconsulting is profitable and a way to keep the doors open while you figure out how to hunt and kill your own work.

* Your rates have to be high enough to support you with 50%+ of your time unsold/unbooked. During that unsold/unbooked time? You are marketing. With the possible exception of sending out invoices, nothing else is as important.

We didn’t have much money when I was a kid and we used the hell out of the deep freeze any time things were on sale. 3 for 2 offer on bread? Half a dozen loaves would come home with us and all but one went in the freezer.

Now that we rarely go to the grocery store/order a delivery, I’m using the same trick. We almost got rid of in in the move but I kept it despite it being a temporary pain to deal with.
Having programmed in languages with named parameters (Smalltalk, ObjC and Commonlisp) I’ve found them cumbersome.

Also they can lead to a poor pattern which is functions/methods that take too many parameters.

They also tend to make generics harder to understand as the possible parameters can vary. Of course you can make the same problem in C++ via, say, `auto multiply(int x, int y)` and `auto multiply(double x, double y, enum rounding rp = rounding::nearest)`

In general they impose the verbosity (in keyboarding and reading) in the routine cases but don’t free you from having to look up the argument semantics of lesser-used functions.

Side point: I used “keyboarding” because the obvious word, “typing” has a homonym which made the sentence confusing!
I'd expect scalar replacement of aggregates (SROA) would eliminate the use of a struct like this in some cases, but there are definitely limits, especially if not compiling with LTO enabled, since optimizations across compilation units will be limited. Honestly doesn't seem worth the cost.

Journalism is not as important as journalist want us to think. Reporting is important. Clear, unbaised reporting gives us what we need to be informed. Nobody asks for story driven reporting, that is a fabrication.

A journalist is a reporter who wants to be Real Writer. Which is to say that they want to do more than give us the facts, they want us to know it via the filter of their experience and analysis. It is a self important profession, all the moereso because universities degree it. Who gets a degree in mere reporting?
> When was the last time you read a news article about a topic where you are an expert, and walked away from it thinking that it would help laymen better understand the topic?

You don't even need to be an expert. I recall reading about someone who was on trial for downloading terrorism related material, or something like that. The article talked about him using "encryption so powerful that even experts from GCHQ couldn't crack it". I know very little about cryptography, but I do understand the whole point is that nobody can crack it.

I think this kind of low-level misinformation is particularly damaging. It's not even an incorrect statement, technically. But it has the effect of making the guy seem like much more of a mastermind than he really was, and spreading fear about this terrifying "encryption" thing that we all use every day, whether we realise it or not.

And then we all turn the page and read the next story...

It's always desirable to apply all security updates regardless of the official rating. Many security issues initially thought to be "just denial-of-service bugs" have been discovered to be exploitable and dangerous in non-obvious ways, it has occurred many times in many different programs. DoS bugs are also famously used intentionally as a camouflage to hide deeper security problems before the embargo expires.

Of course it's not always practical on production systems, but always desirable.
Would keeping Autopilot 'dumb' be a good way to keep users engaged and continue training the network? While Tesla keeps and improves a far more capable version of autopilot internally? I think autopilot is a huge legal burden for Tesla, and I would imagine being careful is a high priority. Once Tesla starts marketing full self driving capability, it will open a gateway of legal troubles that they'll need to deal with once the system is fully capable and can no longer hide behind the 'beta' word. They've put out videos showing autopilot doing complex things and I think that's a pre-release version of autopilot they were using. IDK though, just wondering.
