I've been living in North Thailand for almost 3 years now and littering is still weird here for me. You'd go to the this pristine clean temple where everyone is barefeet and it's so cosy welcoming there then you go back to the parking lot that has a mountain of trash just rolling down hill.

The tourist blame is a bit silly too as foreigners are often charged 10 times the price for entering national parks (1$ for thai, 10$ for a foreigner) to the point where whole #2pricethailand movement started.
For this entry fee a whole platoon of park maintainers could be hired but I've never seen more than 3 people present even in big parks and the trash cans are often missing or badly maintained, so it seems money is definitely being pocketed at some stage.

Generally tourists that go to these parks are quite tidy here and this headline seems like a click-bait.

If the vote represented a majority of the Hawaiian citizenship, and they had a plausible plan to stay a sovereignty. I'd be fine with it.

Not to be snarky, but this is just a oft-repeated platitude by the "Management" types who do not understand the psychology behind programming. Given the synergy between language and thought expression, mastery of a language is what will help you solve a problem and add value. If you just have a cursory knowledge of the language you will never get anything done.

> Visual Mind summary report for http://usecastup.com - 72% of users are expected to like your site. Your site is visually awesome. You can further improve it by using better images and considering little denser layout.

Well, although I'm happy with the comment, that "72%" seems made up entirely.
Better location filtering aside, I don't think a suggestion to register to vote or to make sure to vote is really setting any bad precedent. More votes should be preferred by everyone in democracy.

Although, most other mature democracies, one doesn't actually need to register to vote but that's beside the point.
These were exactly the emails I mean. Anyone who reads them can clearly see there is not even a slight suggestion that reaching herd immunity is somehow a possible “strategy”.
I think it lacks animated gifs.
This is one of those things it feels like all the content addressable initiatives should be able to solve somehow. With near ubiquitous internet access, why can't a program ship with a list of standard library hashes it'll link against and my distro go fetch them from IPFS or whatever if they're not local.
This is not racial discrimination, it's a bug with a piece of software. There are many bugs with software, because behind it are human beings that are being pressured in many ways to ship said software.

Behind all of this is a pretty badly tested library that someone took off GitHub and dumped into Zoom. There is no ill-intent.

If we consider every little thing as racism, we remove the weight of the word and what it actually should be used for. The end of that road being that everyone cries racism for everything and we all become indifferent to hearing the term.
probably impossible to do with great precision, but you can at least estimate the direct impact. it's important to do this, because there are always many more projects that would be nice to do than the government can actually pay for. above all, the project has to at least be better than simply distributing the money as cash to the citizens, or just not having taxed them so much in the first place.

I wouldn't think roads are quite so tricky. there are a few potential benefits of a new road: land on either side of the road is made viable for homes/businesses, more people can get from A to B, people can get from A to B faster. you can probably make a decent prediction here based on current building and traffic trends. potential downsides of a new road: future obligation to maintain it, increased emissions, other environmental impacts. a government ought to have a pretty good idea how much it costs to maintain a certain type of road, considering it is already doing that. a decent estimate for emissions should be obtainable from extrapolating current traffic patterns. other environmental impacts (floodplain, watershed, roadkill, etc.) are probably the hardest to quantify.

in any case, the estimate doesn't have to be perfect. you just need the low end of the error bar to be comfortably above breaking even on the investment.
> Those who object to this barbarism, inflicted upon millions of girls every year, are actually, somehow, called “racists” for doing so.

P/E is still relevant, but you also got to consider future growth.

My experience is that 1/3 of the time they fail to get my order right. It is clear that attention to detail is not the highest priority of hiring managers at restaurants. So what happens when my PII gets plastered on someone else's eventual litter? Contesting fines is not an option -- is too often a losing proposition.

Been using my Pi 4 8GB with K3s and found it to already be quite enjoyable. I’ve seen some odd things being new to the Pi. I started off with the full desktop raspberry os and saw my usb storage devices weren’t mounted when I did not connect my a monitor or set a default resolution in rasp config.

Most likely, what this shows is just that people with strong immune systems that can fight off the corona-virus also tend to not have vitamin D deficiency (in part because frail people tend to spend less time outside in the sun).

> firefighting tech is stuck in the past

Utterly not my experience. I was heavily involved on the tech side of firefighting in Victoria, Australia for several years almost two decades ago. It was possibly the most tech-forward set of projects I’ve ever been involved in.

It was also probably the most interesting stuff I’ve worked on in my career.
I misread GP's comment as saying getting more people to vote somehow sets a bad precedent.
Welcome to a world where the market power is solely at the corporation level. The customer is no longer always right. They’re the product.
No, I was talking about type constructors.

Haskell's Functor class sets typechecking constraints on something that can contain different types but not a realisable type in itself:

class Functor f where fmap :: (a -> b) -> f a -> f b

Here, "f a" is a type, for example, list or maybe or "Map key a". But constraint is on "f", a type constructor variable (an application of type "a" to a type constructor "f" gives you a type "f a": Int is a type, List is a type constructor and List Int is a list of integers).

The same goes to monads - they are type constructors (can hold different types) with a class constraint (must implement two or three functions).

I think you cannot write something like that in Rust:

f :: Monad m => m Int -> m Int -> M String
f getA getB = do { a <- getA; b <- getB; return (show (a+b))}

this code will work over Result, Maybe, List, IO, STM and many other things.
Good point, but C++ exceptions are expensive because they allow you to jump back multiple stack frames at once. If in Rust you're going to check every return value, then isn't that more expensive on average?

Maybe they didn't know there is a difference? I'm from Europe and I didn't. You register to be able to vote? Why isn't every citizen automatically allowed to vote?
It's a very optimistic view, and may be true in some limited domains and individuals but generally speaking groundbreaking creativity (as opposed to the natural creativity within us all which declines gradually but doesn't necessarily completely disappear as we age) is a property of the young, though it may vary from field to field.

e.g. pop music, maths, poetry, physics, etc; you're done by 30. Writers/composers maybe another 10 years or so.

I say that not to be negative, but to urge any young readers who feel they have a talent to not be complacent and assume they will be an exception, or that its related to family/financial/work commitments when you see the decline in your heroes and you will just avoid all that.

Use it before you lose it!

With the complexity of GPU driver stacks, what you are asking for is not firmware, but a multi GHz+ set of CPUs just for that purpose.

It'd also be not tinkerable at all unlike what we have today, it's exactly advocating for the opposite of open.
Windows Server 2016 and 2019 is the same OS as Windows 10 LSTB/LSTC.

That said, I'm running the non-LTSB/LTSC builds of Windows but I think I've gotten all of the underdocumented group policy settings set to disable all of the unwanted Bing/ads/web integration. The only thing I'm dreading now is the next unexpected and unwanted feature-update that will trash all of my files on-disk.

I'd be fine with automatic major OS updates if Windows had its own partition or physical volume to go-crazy in while my own silo'd programs, configuration data, and personal files were on a physically separate drive with a hardware interlock to prevent the OS from writing to it unless I gave it permission.

(Yes, I lost 2 years worth of files in the October 2018 Windows feature update because I was using folder redirection)
I guess someone else accused you of racism, but I don't think your hypothesis is racist, but your wording leaves a lot to be desired.

You refer to blacks and whites as if you are talking about chess pieces. There is no binary option that clear cut with people and I am sure if you wanted to you could cut it down into more specific ethnicities that are, or are not, affected by this.

Hang in there!

I’ve had a long career in technology, and for most of it I was doing project and product management, with some light coding on my own time as a hobby. Five years ago I’d finally had it with all that and went to a great coding boot camp. I did end up landing a job after that, but it was a grueling experience to go back to zero in finding jobs.

Comparing yourself to others can be incredibly draining. Not only are many of these people at different stages in their careers than you are, but you’re seeing the best faces they can put forward when you look at LinkedIn.

My advice is - own who and where you are right now. You have done a hell of a lot of work to get where you are now, and you can be proud of that. And if a company isn’t looking for someone like you - if 20 companies aren’t - that’s not on you. Keep working on your craft, keep following what networking angles you can in this crazy year, and keep the faith.
This is a excellent project, you should also make support via github possible for those who don't want to use patreon.
Would you agree that over 1k seems a bit high?
No one in the thread has mentioned it yet, but NBD is also an option, either NBD root or NBD for particular filesystems. I've used it for managing Pis and a couple of SiFive boards. It has different trade-offs from NFS (not necessarily faster/slower/better/worse, depends on what you're doing).

For what I'm doing which is software builds I was able to write a specific NBD driver[1] for this task which has quite large performance gains, although there are trade-offs that only make sense for temporary build directories. I don't believe this is possible with NFS at all, or at least not without far more effort.

Every citizen is automatically allowed to vote. Registering basically tells your local county that ‘I live and vote here’ so they’ll send you ballot information and have your name on the correct checklist at your polling place.
> Does any major software vendor support older versions of the ABI or machine code?

Yes, this is extraordinarily common. The ABI is an interface, a promise that new versions of the machine code for a library can both be used by binaries compiled against the old one. There's new machine code, but there's no "by definition" of whether they make this promise or not.

glibc (and the other common libraries) on basically all the GNU/Linux distros does this: that's why it's called "libc.so.6" after all these years. New functions can be introduced (and possibly new versions of functions, using symbol versioning), but old binaries compiled against a "libc.so.6" from 10 years ago will still run today. (This is how it's possible to distribute precompiled code for GNU/Linux, whether NumPy or Firefox or Steam, and have it run on more than a single version of a single distro.)

Apple does the same thing; code linked against an old libSystem will still run today. Android does the same thing; code written to an older SDK version will still run today, even though the runtime environment is different.

Oracle Java does the same thing: JARs built with an older version of the JDK can load in newer versions.

Microsoft does this at the OS level, but - notably - the Visual C++ runtime does not make this promise, and they follow a similar pattern to what Nvidia is suggesting. You need to include a copy of the "redistributable" runtime of whatever version (e.g. MSVCR71.DLL) along with your program; you can't necessarily use a newer version. However, old DLLs continue to work on new OSes, and they take great pains to ensure compatibility.

"Xerox was a multinational corporation, with shareholders, a huge sales force, and a vast corporate customer base, and it needed to consider every new idea within the context of what it already had."

I am not a particular fan of Gladwell, but this in particular is the unvarnished truth, and the article in general, very good.
If you want to do around 1000 IU per day, it may be worth looking at multivitamins. For example, Flintstones Complete [1] chewable children's multivitamins are 800 IU per tablet. One or two tablets a day of those should have you covered.

If you want to take much larger doses of some vitamin, say 5000 IU a day of D, it would probably not be a good idea to do it via multivitamins because you would then be getting large doses of many other vitamins and minerals. At the very least you'd have to do a lot more research to make sure all of them are safe in larger doses.

[1] Just because you an adult doesn't mean you have to settle for the bland or worse taste of "adult" multivitamins. We are allowed to take flavorful children's vitamins too.

I don't have a great handle on the exact details, but my suspicion is that this kind of analysis is hard to do, because it can play out differently in the micro vs macro. That is, in a naive implementation, yes, but after the compiler is done inlining and DCE-ing and yadda yadda yadda things end up looking differently in real codebases than one might assume.

I do believe there's been some discussions in C++ land about the relative performance of these approaches, though I can't find good references right this second.

The single most supportive thing you could do for them is to hook them up with like-minded peers.

If they have friends the same age interested in the same thing, there's no limit for what they can accomplish, with or without the other material.

Not only because peers can help out in finding and recommending "teaching" material, but also because as humans we tend to want to do what our friends do.

I think these peers can be people they interact with only online, and not in person, but that is my own conjecture. The rest is supported by evidence.

Can you elaborate on what you mean? This is an open source library for developers to write code that can compile without changes on both CPU and GPU.
