The language doesn't know that there's any relationship between those two strings, so the method would probably need to be fallible, and be more convoluted than this.

I assume, then, that your definition of "jumping" includes whatever it is the rook and king are doing when the player castles.
You also lose tested versions from OS. You will either have to do your own QA of working dependency versions and manually keep them updated over time (e.g. security fixes, or stick with what you freeze forever), or just get dump of last versions every time you deploy the virtualenv.

FWIW, we ALREADY have a pay-per-use system in the US (even if it isn't fully 1:1):

Petrol/Gas taxes are paid at both the federal and state levels as a proxy to usage.

Commercial trucks must pay for a Heavy Vehicle Use Tax, which again has both a federal and state component.

And of course, there are many new highways and a bridges that are financed with tolls.

And in the places like the UK there are congestion taxes for city centers.
You can also use a Pi-hole to block the ads or malicious sites while investigating the cause or to prevent going to the sites of a similar issue re-occurs.
I was always a strong reader as a kid and have never had issues with spelling, or anything that would hint at dyslexia, but the spoken letter things is one of (in my opinion) my greatest weaknesses. I'm super visual and consider myself to have a really strong "minds eye", but for some reason the moment people start spelling something out loud, it's just mush. I've thought about it so much in recent years that I've considered just practicing with videos or a writing a program to do it to see if it's something I can eradicate.
Many countries have Vitamin D deficient populations, including Italy: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5986426/

In Italy, it gets worse the older the population gets.

It is also an issue in Germany:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4499202/

I make no claims other than: 1) there is a very strong correlation between vitamin D insufficiency/deficiency and poor outcomes for COVID-19, and 2) many populations, including those in sunny countries, suffer from widespread vitamin D insufficiency.

I for one have been taking 1,000 IUs of vitamin D every day since March, and trying to get sun exposure mid-day whenever I can.
I support data based evidence. But it seems self-evident that a virus that spreads by air and particularly one with some ability to persist is going to love people in close proximity in an enclosed space and it's not like you can consistently be well masked and eat. I have to think that the virus would also love the warm moist environment of fresh food.

Further, it is very difficult to take an infection case and trace back to when and where it occurred. I don't think we can take bare statistics on this at face value.

I heard emacs did that but went one step further, they dump the memory of the interpreter post-init* and just load it into memory when starting.

Without any details about "your area" it's impossible to say. We'd need the raw data, not your anecdotal "things are better".

It seems like in these cases often at least in frame-based systems like games it makes sense to sort your data in a parent->child partial order, then visit in that (or reverse depending on which algo) order propagating changes, then do another pass later and so on. It's just nice that you can think about these things once you're in DoD-land.
I looked at the specs of 3080 and I cannot understand, why it such a hype?

What games do not work on 2080Ti or even 1080Ti?

And from a Deep Learning perspective 3080 does not look that great. 10Gb of GPU ram is a big problem.

I see people are responding about performance considerations, but the other aspect is support. It may just be that NVIDIA does not believe supporting RTX Voice on GTX cards is worth the time and resources. Because even if they put in a disclaimer about "We haven't tested this on every GTX card, so you may notice poor performance or bugs and we won't support that", they'll get plenty of people complaining to them about poor performance or bugs. It happens all the time, and it's often a big concern in choosing which products to support.

Yes, I agree that initially choosing not to support GTX cards was a money-based decision, but sometimes there are additional (somewhat more reasonable) factors that contribute to that money-based decision, which people often seem to leave out.
Short answer: Their software will lose mind share, and therefore market share in the long run.
In the 70s, when dyslexia had a jump in 'popularity' (according to google ngram too), an education psychologist I knew had a curious experience.

There was a television program about this thing called dyslexia. In the following weeks and months, many parents came to him to announce that their child had dyslexia and must be treated specially.

I guess this is not actually that curious. In the sense that conditions seem to be contracted via mass media ... and now social media.
Which gets balanced out greatly with policy proposals like Andrew Yang's Democracy Dollars, where every eligible voter gets allocated $100/year to contribute to the politician(s) of their choosing.

So your OOP version creates many layers which impedes understanding and extension as well.

DRY is also not a law which must always be followed. You often don't even know when you're repeating yourself until you do, and the first time you see a repetition is not when you should eliminate it (in most cases). You often see people reference the rule of three here.

The first repetition should make you pay attention. The second lets you know that it's probably (not necessarily) time to refactor. Premature DRY is as bad as premature optimization.
At 3 paragraphs (131 words), that was a really short article. However, I agree with the subheading: "Mark Zuckerberg says employees shouldn’t have to confront social issues in their day-to-day work unless they want to"

That sounds good to me. I've never had to talk about these kind of things at work. Are there work places where this is unavoidable?

DOD has simple solutions for this, too.

A popular one is to group your entities by "archetype"- you have two arrays of Point2Ds, one for those without a Z coordinate and one for those with a Z coordinate. Now if you want all Point2Ds, you loop over both arrays; if you want all Point3Ds, you just loop over one. (This generalizes cleanly to larger numbers of "components.")

In some ways, this is actually quite a bit easier to use than OOP composition+inheritance. You don't need to build your compositions up front as classes or types- you just build them directly as values, throw them all into your archetype system that manages the arrays, and query them however you like. It feels similar to a relational database.
I had this happen a couple of years back too. At least I think this is exactly what happened. It was an obscure'ish name too, and it seemed like within 30 minutes it was gone and registered by GoDaddy.

I know this is statistically possible as just coincidence and bad luck, and I thought about it that time and concluded they must have just nabbed it (wrote an angry message to support that went nowhere).

Otherwise we'll be in some sad dystopia where the only way to get VR is to hand over all of your private data.

> One "CUDA core" is indeed one GPU thread.

This is not true, just like a shader core with AMD was not a GPU thread.

For example, the 2900 XT had 320 shader cores, but since it used VILW-5 ISA, that corresponds to 64 GPU threads.

Similarly, an RTX 3080 has 8704 CUDA cores, but there are 2 FP32 ALUs per thread, resulting in 4252 threads, and 68 SMs since, just like Turing, there are 64 threads per SM.

Now if you want all Point2Ds, you loop over both arrays; if you want all Point3Ds, you just loop over one. (This generalizes cleanly to larger numbers of "components.")

But now your Point2D code needs to be aware of the Point3D code. Violating the open-closed principle (which is an OOP principle, but one that's extremely useful in software engineering).

You NEVER want to change working code. That's the fundamental basis of the open-closed principle. Figuring out how to extend the code to new functionality ("open to extension"), WITHOUT risking any breaks on old code ("closed to modification"), is core to software engineering principles.

Any "solution" that relies upon changing Point2D is null-and-void to my software engineering brain. You cannot build libraries or reusable code if your solution is "rewrite the old code to support new functionality".

This isn't remotely an example of corruption unless there is a direct conflict of interest.

If she hired her son directly, or as part of the team, if he was lobbying her, then it's a problem.

But if her son worked at IBM and she, as Defence Minister hired IBM for some defence contract, then it's irrelevant.

Edit: I should be clear, among the elite, specifically if there are central groups which exist especially within EU nations, and also 'bubbles' in the US i.e. Valley, Hollywood, NY Finance etc. it's very common for 'big contracts' to go to so-and-so, and as a 'favour' the so-and-so takes on 'sufficiently credentialed son/daughter'. For example, if you're the top Defence bureaucrat and you hire 'Bain & Co.' to do a procurement analysis ... well ... you're son with a newly minted MBA might find it much easier to get hired there. While this kind of 'soft nepotism' is arguably problematic, it's also not so bad. It's when the 'wife, niece and grandson of the French President' have 'fully paid positions in the bureaucracy' for which they literally do nothing, or when the PM hires his college buddy's law firm for a $100M boondoggle that it gets worse.
This is basically what I do and it's great :)
Your parent's incorrect assumption is an enlightening one. You were correct to read my comment as one on the dangers presented to other road users.
Likewise the focus on ECS architecture as being the one true DoD pattern when it’s not necessarily data oriented at all and the unfounded assumption it’s used everywhere in game development when it isn’t . And somehow the idea that DoD is a replacement for OOP when it’s really an orthogonal concern.

DoD is about recognising data use patterns in your software and organising your software architecture around them in a way that suits the constraints of modern hardware. That’s all.

well-specified also requires that the functional relationships are actually linear, if you're using linear models, right?

this is a common critique of linear SEMs -- some ML researchers refer to a broader class of "structural causal models (SCMs)", which are basically SEMs where the relationships may be drawn from broader function classes.
Why do you think this is (avoiding any anti-refugee sentiment in other comments on the thread)?

Those are all fixed costs, the cost of development is the same, regardless of whether you have 5 or 500 users.

Download bandwidth, sure (though that can mostly be mitigated with BitTorrent). The rest, well, that's on you for building in dependencies on cloud bullshit.

If I ever do it again, it will be a free service, that has premium offers you can pay for (domain masking, email, etc)
For the US, if the creator did the work without initial payment or the promise of payment on delivery then the copyright is theirs. If they are hired before it exists, it is work for hire.
Since you're here answering questions, what do you have to say about your policy of selling certain unregistered domains as premium offerings for a higher price simply because their names are considered more marketable? I know that this is far from unique to namecheap and at least you disclose it as a practice (albeit in a somewhat roundabout manner) but it seems to me as a sort of abuse of registrar privilege. In other words, if a domain is not yet registered to any buyer, should it not be available for a standard price like other unclaimed offerings?
That's a litmus test for me when working with other technicians. If they need to transfer a file to me across a shared LAN and they offer to pipe the file over Netcat (and they just expect that I know what they mean) then they "rate". If I suggest Netcat and they understand they "rate". If they have no idea what I'm talking about or, worse, suggest a "cloud" service, then I file them appropriately.

Edit: Just to be clear, I'm talking about transient situations-- like when I'm working with another contractor on a day-long gig, etc. Obviously, for an established LAN piping files to each other over isn't a sensible or secure file transfer method.

I'm somewhat surprised AlibabaCloud wouldn't act on it. The others, not so much - nor do I think namecheap has an obligation to do so.
I've heard of this technique way back in the 00s. Just as I heard about GoDaddy being crappy registrar and crappy hoster. Namecheap and Gandi essentially rose as alternatives to GoDaddy that don't suck. So the surprising things here are that someone still uses that scam and that someone still uses GoDaddy.

BTW, I now remembered that this isn't even the main reason why GD sucks. IIRC perhaps the main reason is that their support is susceptible to all kinds of social attacks and transfer domains left and right. Basically, account security is rendered poof by support people who don't care. So probably don't want to use GD if you like to at least keep your purchases after paying.
It's good to remember the following maxim, no matter what you're building:

Not that you shouldn't build anything, but it's better to threat model the abuse cases early on in design so that you have a chance.

I'm not sure about all the providers but Amazon's CloudFront CDN product has additional costs, so it's "bundled" but not in the sense that it's free, only that it's integrated.

And one of Cloudflare's selling points imo is the multi-cloud customers. Use AWS all the way but Cloudflare as your CDN and you could swtich to GCP seamlessly. Or route traffic based on pricing etc. I think you're right they will/have absolutely branch out from CDN but I think their CDN product is actually compelling especially to bigger companies that are more afraid of Amazon that they are of Cloudflare.

(Other interesting point - it's worth noting that IBM's CDN is essentially white labeled Cloudflare).
