I know these is controversial, but this is what I personally think: (and even though a lot of this continued during Obama) Every American that voted for Bush' second term is partly responsible. It is evidently clear where the most political pressure to act like this has come from. Don't forget the NSADP was democratically elected. Every vote for the GOP is one to further legitimise these practices, and every voter is personally responsible for the way your country has headed as the writing was clearly on the wall. Just as ever member of the NSDAP has some responsibility for the holocaust, it should have been very clear to anyone paying attention that that party had some pretty extreme and objectionable view

That's around five times slower than a PDP-8/S, which was possibly the slowest mini around at the time - already obsolete by 1970.

So it's doubtful it would have been successful as a computing product, although it might have had some applications at the more undemanding end of process control.

It would have been more interesting to use the skills, techniques, and marketing contacts collected during the 8008 project to jump-start an 8080 project as soon as the new CPU appeared.

But the S100 era happened because the Altair had a standard bus that made the system trivially expandable.

Corporate/industrial/academic systems had expensive and relatively complicated proprietary bus and backplane systems, which limited the market and kept prices high.

So... an alternative 8080 system wouldn't have been a game changer unless it was sold with the same open hardware model. At best it would have been an expensive micromini for a niche academic and industrial market.
> given eviction/rent moratoriums.

But this is much more of a short-term band-aid than a real solution isn't it? As I understood the eviction moratorium is just a block preventing people from being removed from their homes. It's not rent forgiveness. So when it expires, those renters will still be on the hook for months worth of back rent, and assuming a lot of them are unable to pay because they are unemployed, this just seems like we're inflating a debt bubble to be dealt with later.

That's also ignoring the financial obligations of landlords - they might also be running into trouble due to lost revenue and for now I suppose they are just supposed to bear it.
Sure, though you can make an argument about the relative merits; it is possible that the heavyweight ISO process would have strangled Rust had we started there too early. I do agree that this is why "maturity" is a decent framing for this criticism, after all, C did not have a spec at this point in it's life.

Correct me if I'm wrong but that graph they show compares averaged numbers over hundreds of years or even thousands of years, with year over year numbers once we started measuring this regularly the last +100 years.

I saw only 1 open letter signed by lots of researchers which contained many problems with the experiment: the main one for me was that the results that were supposed to be from independent experiments were extremely highly correlated. The reason behind that correlation can be not enough original data (cheating) or bad processing, but the western researchers asked for the original data to find it out.

That's because you are American. As a foreigner, I find the idea that you can label a group as "black" and imagine it to be both descriptive and homegenous enough to see meaningful genetic variations relative to another group labeled as "white" somewhat funny and verging on racism (but then again I have been conditioned from childhood to see the word race applied to humans as something deeply racist whereas it is seen as completely innocuous in an American cultural context).

I agree with what you said, yet can't help but think that everyone who knows about this kind of thing and still doesn't think twice about which party to vote for, is responsible in some way.

Every american is given a voice, to vote for the best party, the best candidate, based on what they know and believe. Voting is anonymous. You dont have to tell anyone what you voted for. Vote for a third party, or for whatever you think is best.

But don't ever vote out of habit.
The last time I got rejected was after the final interview. The recruiter scheduled a call to talk with me without letting me know they had an offer. I could only have imagined they'd be making an offer. He thanked me for the time and told me why they decided to reject me, and that they'd likely reconsider me in six months. I'd rather receive an email telling upfront I was rejected instead (still would be happy to schedule a call).
The problem I have with him is that his massive leaks were politically motivated.

The helicopter who shot journalists, that movie was genuine, and a proper leak. All the diplomatic cables being leaked? Clinton's e-mails? I don't believe all of that was in the public interest. He fell in the trap of making it political, us vs them (why he went in bed with the Russians), and disregarding operational safety.
The equilibrium is wherever “the market” decides it is. With the Fed pumping trillions of dollars into the market and dropping rates to 0% for extended periods of time, that’s not “the market”, that’s just the Fed.

And I’m not just talking about now, at this moment. It goes all the way back to 2008, when rates dropped to near-zero and didn’t even break 3% before they had to drop to near-zero again for the next recession (right now). The Fed gave up almost all their normal tools and never asked for them back, and now they’re gone. Which means if the economy gets worse (and staying the same as right now for an extended period of time is the same as “getting worse”), there’s not a whole lot anyone can do about it.

Basically, if the Fed is out of tools already, the only thing the Fed can do is cash injections. Which they’ve already done this year, trillions of dollars worth. And that might keep the market afloat for another year or two or ten... all while the stock market keeps going up. Not because investors think these businesses are worth that much, but because they know there will never be a decline in the market overall.

And what happens when the market becomes completely decoupled from the value of the businesses they’re trading? And better question... what happens when the Fed changes their mind?

Even if that was true (I don't think it is) there is no point in reminding people that time is running out.

I was the most productive in music and painting during my 20s but I lived with the constant angst that I was running out of time and needed to get results as soon as possible. This was totally counterproductive. I understand now to produce better art you need to be totally focused in the process, and not the end result, or even worse, the consequences of the end result (fame, criticism, etc).

It's probably not Buffett who made that decision but rather one of the two other investors tasked with putting berkshire's cash to work: todd Combs and ted weschler.

The investment in barrick gold is tiny in relation to brk's other investments. About $500m in a $210bn+ portfolio of public stocks (which in turn are smaller than their privately owned firms).

Additionally, Berkshire's holds about $147bn in cash so let's please not get carried away with the gold comments.

Look if you think this is a good deal, people do the exact same deal in the US. They sell them, generally, to people in trailor parks. It's called "buy and lease back". Go ahead, it's certainly not hard to do.

A lot of states are working to outlaw these deals, because for these reasons and others they are considered abusive.
You gotta do:

Then do a restart and the bootloader should be updated, if that doesn't work you also need to do a:

You say that Haskell is not suited for the kind of work Rust focuses on. I would like to ask you for exactly what reasons is Haskell not suited for that kind of work?

I think you did not think about embedding language into Haskell. Most of, if not all, machinery in Rust can be embedded into Haskell and used from there.

But I think you will not go that path. That's okay, I see that you prefer to design languages instead of writing libraries. Fair choice, I concur.

There is a whole body of research around the ways that vitamin D modulates inflammation, helps regulate calcium homeostasis and strengthens circadian rhythm. Here is some relevant research:

- vitamin D is directly involved in regulating the renin-angiotensin system, including ACE2 expression. ( https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3999581/ )

- vitamin D has been shown to have anti-inflammatory activity with respect to cytokines specifically involved in advanced COVID-19 cases ( https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6164284/ )

- vitamin D and magnesium insufficiency both cause hypocalcemia, which has been connected to COVID-19 severity: ( https://www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-17575/v1 )

- magnesium and vitamin K2 also modulate calcium homeostasis ( you can look this one up yourself I need to get off this phone )

No real argument about this, seems to be essentially true. I just have never cared about anything in this article while writing Rust. The maturity I care far more about is "if I want a library is it available, documented, api stable, and relatively bug free", which Rust does okay at.
Sure platform specific things can be useful. But that's exactly what `syscall()` is. As far as I'm aware, other platforms don't have any real equivalent. On other platforms syscalls must be made via libraries (as Go rather famously found out the hard way).

> I mean, should we try to use euphemisms for China's control of chipmaking? Or the German emission cheating scandal?

When that extends to Chinese people or Germans that is racist.
And Germany has the most expensive electricity on the planet (for a firstworld nation and adjusted to cost of living). Funding is drying up because renewable subsidies make power unaffordable and thus politically unviable. Germany should be a big warning to everyone claiming renewables would be cheap or cheaper, the market here is gravely distorted by subsidies and yet, people point to Germany as an example...
German here - I absolutely agree. I think the way Hitler rose to power is such an important piece of history.

Nazi germany wasnt the first country to act like that. They didnt invent torture or mass killings, genocide, etc. It had happened before, everyone knew it, everyone knew that it can happen.

And yet they voted blindly and thought "ah, well, it wont happen here". And low and behold, a few years later it does.

I cannot feel sorry for people who vote out of habit and are then surprised that the government they voted for doesn't do what they silently hoped for.
> I find the idea that you can label a group as "black" and imagine it to be both descriptive and homegenous enough...

No, the whole distinction of black is dark skin colour, which is a proxy for skin melanin, which is (far as I'm aware) the primary factor determining vitamin D production from sun exposure (which is not directly useful in the body, but is the form that is often measured).

Also, because of the effect on vitamin D production from sun exposure, there is some evidence that other aspects of how vitamin D is handled by the body are different for people with darker skin, maybe because their ancestors got more than enough of it.

This isn't even about social categories “Black” and “White”, it is literally about the direct correlates of skin colour.

My point is that you can't compare rent payment rates from when you would get evicted if you didn't pay rent to rent payment rates from an eviction moratorium where there is no penalty for not paying rent.

> they might also be running into trouble due to lost revenue and for now I suppose they are just supposed to bear it.

The reason that landlords make the profits they do is because they're taking on this kind of risk. They are the party to bear it, and have hopefully hedged in some way. If they are overexposed, then yes, they will fail. Hopefully we don't make the same too big to fail mistake we made last time.

I'm not claiming that everything is great with our economy. It's obviously not. But suggesting the Fed stop doing what it is doing would be perhaps the single worst thing you could do to the entire economy. It is good that equity prices remain high and it is good that personal income has risen. We should capitalize on those trends so that people can soon go back to work.
The p/e ratio is extremely crude and should be avoided at all costs.

The metric completely disregards capital structure (debt to equity) and uses earnings at a single point in time. Earnings can easily be manipulated.

Ah, the suckless philosophy - making everything as terse, austere and featureless as possible in the name of 'simplicity'. It's a wonder so few people want to adopt it.

There also used to be some more ahem 'controversial' content which I assume was removed to get with the current times.
You can use this library to write code that runs on both risc-v and a GPU! You seem to be pretty confused about what this library is. It’s not exerting any control. It’s open source! It’s strictly optional, and it only allows developers to do something they actually want, to write code that will compile for any type of processor that a modern c++ compiler can target.
How we could design Kanye's “Y Combinator for Music”
The code embedded in Haskell need not managed runtime. It can be used for hard realtime tasks including garbage trucks with hybrid power train [1] and, from my experience, to control FPGA-based network switches for all kinds of analytics on 160G of Ethernet traffic in 2013.

After embedding something in Haskell you can have your hard real time code with all kinds of runtimes seamlessly integrated with other code in typical Haskell with its RTS.
