I use Linux distributions since Slackware 2.0, it is hardly my definition, rather something that I have read somewhere on Usenet or while reading Linux Journal.

Goinng back to Android and ChromeOS.

On Android, NDK states very clerarly what are the APIs available to userspace applications written in C and C++, and none of them are Linux syscalls. Additionally everything outside of the application's installation directory is forbidden.

Starting with Android 7, Google has started to introduce security measures that kill applications that try to work around the rules.

Likewise on ChromeOS, applications are written with the Web stack, ART running on its container and same access rules, with Crostini running on top of a container, using its own kernel and talking to the ChromeOS in a way similar to WSL2 on Windows.

Hence why applications like Termux have several limitations and workarounds to fake being on Linux, and going forward they may not even work anymore, because they refuse to use Java to access the features that Google forbids direct access to the NDK.

So hardly a Linux distribuition.
If you're going to do Windows specific GUI development, why would you go to the hassle of using DirectX/WSL at all? Why not just do native Windows development?

If you're not doing native development on Windows 'cause you want cross-platform support, you won't use DirectX specific pieces...
True, but big SUVs are more and more common (and also the bitching about it).
>(New York in particular ran into this problem; they actually abolished bail in 2019, but brought it back immediately in response to preliminary suggestions the reform might have increased crime.)

The only part of your statement that's factual is that there were premature complaints that it increased crime. That has yet to be validated.

As for the rest, cash bail was not completely eliminated. Rather it was eliminated for most non-violent and some violent offenses.

The changes made by the NYS legislature made more (not all) violent crimes eligible for bail, and gave judges more discretion as to whether to set bail or not[0].

As such, in New York State most offenses are not bailable. Which is a huge improvement over the prior regimen.

Many people would languish in jail for months or years, while they lost their jobs and their homes.

Even more cruelly, prosecutors would use this to essentially force people to accept plea bargains which required them to plead guilty to crimes they may not have committed, just to get out of jail and try to salvage some semblance of their lives.

That just creates a group of people who are now homeless, jobless and have a criminal conviction -- just because they couldn't afford to pay for bail.

That's a great way to create more folks who have no means, a big red 'X' anytime they apply for a job and little respect for the law -- given how the "justice" system destroyed their lives with cash bail.

You might think "Well, they were put in jail for a reason." But this wasn't a sentence after conviction, it was criminalizing poverty. And that's just wrong.

I think cash bail is horrible. If you are so dangerous that you need to be kept away from the general public before trial, then you shouldn't have the option of bail at all.

And that should be proven via actual evidence before a judge, not any sort of ML model.

Many here seem to see this as a technical issue to be solved, with better training data, more refined models and clearer definitions of the problem/search space.

It's not. People's lives are often ruined by cash bail. Prosecutors should be required to prove, with actual evidence that each defendant is a real flight risk, or is likely to harm others before being remanded to custody without bail.

Everyone else should be required to respond appropriately to court orders WRT contact with prosecutors, appearance at hearings/trials, etc. but should not be required to post bail.

Speed limits are quite effective at improving crash outcomes.
If you have remote work, you could re-roll the dice until the constraints hold up in terms of passport and living costs. Although, people manage to travel the world with very low amounts of money, so the real deciding factor would be your tolerance of "bad" living conditions.
Not sure if the same applies, given that BSDs don't even share the same kernel code or overall architecture, and they are created as old style UNIX, meaning each BSD caters for everything across all stack.
Supporting Wine would cost Microsoft money and not make them much/any money, why would they do that?

On the other hand, supporting VS Code, Terminal, WSL2 makes them money by helping boost their cloud services, so it makes sense to spend money in those areas.

That doesn't feel nefarious to me, just business.
That's an interesting perspective. If I think about it this way, it seems obvious that doing random bullshit when you can do anything is like... quintessence of stupid.

On the other hand, if this is obviously stupid, there must be something obviously correct. But it's actually a rare individual who knows exactly what he wants to do in life. Talking about investment you implicitly assumed that it's a given that the only meaningful thing to do with spare money is looking for how to multiply it, one just needs to think about how to do it effectively. But there's no such assumption about what you should do with your life. I guess almost nobody actually makes such decisions, they just... live? This way, it's all good and there's no real difference between copying your parents' life, killing yourself immediately, becoming a doctor to find a way to cure cancer, or throwing a dice to chose where do you spend the next month. There isn't any universally accepted answer to "what's the purpose of life". That is, most people probably will be able to answer something, but it doesn't mean much.
Thanks. Good to know
> 'Cancel culture' isn't force, it's culture. That's why they call it 'cancel culture', and not 'cancel force.' Funny, it turns out a lot of people would rather not do business with racists, misogynists, homophobes, neo-Nazis, and assorted religious bigots, whodathunkit.

Don't do business, sure, but harassing your political opponent's family and getting them fired still is culture and not force? And it can't even be both? And the best argument you can come up with is that it's not literally called "cancel force"? That seems reasonable.

> Someone from the government showing up with a gun and telling me I can't marry a consenting adult of my choice

Show me just one example of this happening today. Just one.

You're grasping at straws here arguing based on arbitrarily defined semantics, things that never happened and randomly accusing me of trolling (that one's especially low), while ignoring the central point.

To quote you, sounds like you've made up your mind on this issue.
The landing page is kind of slick and vacuous, with cute little images. That feels like marketing did it, not engineers. Perhaps that's unfair but it's a bad sign for me.

"Dark-Mode first / because your eyes are worth it" That's not based on any evidence, just what you want to give. It's not a selling point for me. I guess you allow it to be changed so I guess it's not a problem either.

https://trueq.io/create-question, well literally you can't even fill in fields - as in, type in text - without javascript enabled. That alone will kill it for me.

Also how does it compare to SO?

Just some feedback - good luck!
We need new theory and social contract about how to reconcile individual agency and statistical markers. Until it is in place all algorithms will be unfair and whatever the worst ism of the day on social media is.

Unfortunately thinking on the subject usually leads to despair and pouring a quadruple bourbon
I'm out of my depth here (I know a few things about computers but - biology? Not so much) but I suspect that once life gets going it kind of hogs all of the resources necessary for life to begin again.

So perhaps abiogenesis hasn't happened again on Earth because it's already happened and there's no space for it to happen again until the current batch of living things has been extinguished.

If that holds any water, then life could have started any nymber of times in the past and ended soon after, without leaving any trace we can detect.
It depends on how the C functions are called. CPython extension modules either don't work or have high overhead.

CFFI-based modules should work without a big penalty, but these are generally slower than extension modules.
"I'm curious: what is your example of a small European village with a train line?"

Huh?
We have lots and lots of train lines, also passing through very small villages. But sure, not at all to every village, so there are also enough villages, where only a bus goes. And in some only sometimes. Maybe only on the weekend, maybe only weekdays.

So you also need a car in rural germany.
Great progress, one day this will be the main reference implementation.
Oh no, not another engagement metric! Just think of how (a)social media works ... I guess we would have apps crying for our attention even more than usual.
Only if you render at 60Hz/120Hz/etc. like games do.

If you have a static UI, you can skip rendering frames until "something" happens. That's going to burn no more power than a retained-mode UI.

Sure, the immediate mode UI may redraw 100,000 triangles vs the retained-mode 100 triangles. However, that's just not a bottleneck on practically every device nowadays. And I doubt that the difference is that stark as rendering scaled text properly is still just egregiously expensive in terms of computation.

However, everybody nowadays has to "ANIMATE! <jazzhands>" so you're rendering 60Hz anyway irrespective of type of UI.

And if animation is required by application (film editor, digital audio workstation, etc.) it's not clear that you really can do anything other than immediate mode. Do note how many of those kinds of programs wrote their own GUI over the years--that says something.

One thing that people don't mention is that immediate-mode UI's tend not to suffer from as many synchronization issues and retained glitches as retained-mode UI's do. Even if you don't get the update correct in an immediate-mode UI, the next frame the error goes away. In a "retained-mode" UI your widget needs to "refresh", which may not happen except in very rare circumstances. I have had to grab the corner and adjust a window size a couple of pixels innumerable times in order to clear UI glitches over the years.

I should probably comment about threading and the "UI Master Thread", but I don't think I've seen a good example of an immediate-mode UI running multi-threaded, yet. You probably need Vulkan to even have a hope of pulling that off (OpenGL is notoriously multi-thread hostile).
Gonna take a gander and guess the developer might have an Indian origin! Or at least studied for the GRE!
Agreed, otherwise there is always Julia or a Common Lisp to choose from, and they can easily have bindings for the same C++ and Fortran libraries.

A thing I usually find lacking in others’ “automate-all-the-things” scripts/apps/pipelines/etc is documentation. Without good documentation you only temporarily kept time-consuming chaos/manual-labor at bay at the cost of more complexity/entropy in the future. In my opinion, without docs, it eventually becomes a burden on (future) colleagues instead of a nicely consistent automated-away process. Don’t automate (just) for yourself, automate for others, where docs empower others to be autonomous and able to manage said automation without your head around.

The DirectX extensions to WSL aren't intended for GUI development, they're intended for ML workloads.
There are a lot of different things to be interested in. At one end visual/graphic design is interesting because, like engineering, it's seeking optimum performance among constraints. Neue Hass Grotesk might technically "outperform" other specific fonts in specific contexts, enabling you to find, say, a restroom at the airport faster and with less effort than if the sign were in Fraktur.

On another end of it, there's the recognition that what often starts off as efficient or economical in one context will form a cultural symbiosis with that context, carrying it around for decades or centuries to follow. That's why Cooper Black might remind you of cheerful commercialism from the 70s, but it also explains how seeing Eurostyle on a fried chicken menu will give you a very specific idea about how much you'll be paying and what the condiments will be like.

On the contrary, Julia might be the kick on the Python world to finally start discussing about having something like PyPy as standard.
When my family started calling me paranoid, I started telling them to stop asking about such things if they didn't want to hear my opinion. It's simple - they either trust your opinion when they need assistance, or they shouldn't ask for input.

It's rather close to blackmail, but refusing to set up that insecure IP camera for someone and explaining that their "brand-new" camera has vulnerabilities that have been known, but remained unpatched for years, is somewhay effective. It's also kinda amusing to help them return such crap to the store because it was sold with defects that are known by the manufacturer.

As someone who tried to follow it somewhat closely in the early days, the entirety of the lockdown debates were based on the early case fatality rate data which people were unable to properly contextualize, and then later the treatment protocols changed and probably the virus itself changed, and the death rates started to plummet. So ultimately we aren't dealing with the same threat that we were. People were going off the best available data at the time, and coming up with solutions of varying quality.

China may have propagandized their response as the best, in a way that was reacting to events, not orchestrating them from the beginning. This seems true even if the lab origin hypothesis is true
> The tabs do not alter the original song in any way, they are merely a derivative work.

If the tabs do not alter the original song in any way, then they are more like a literal copy than a derivative work. A literal copy, even one that took a long time to make, will not contain any separately copyrightable elements. A derivative work, however, may contain its own separately copyrightable elements, even if it was made without permission. For example, Fifty Shades of Grey started out as a Twilight fanfiction by E. L. James called Master of the Universe. James could not publish Master of the Universe without infringing the Twilight elements owned by Stephanie Meyer. But nor could Meyer publish Master of the Universe without infringing E. L. James's copyright in the elements that didn't come from Twilight.

> the transferal of rights over the tabs to the copyright holders may be granted by a judge

It is unlikely that a court would ever transfer title from an infringer to a copyright owner because (1) it's not necessary, and (2) in the case of a derivative work it may be unjust. To continue my prior example, if Stephanie Meyer had sued E. L. James for publishing Master of the Universe, it would have been unjust for a court to transfer title to her because the infringing derivative work contained copyrightable elements separate from those created by Stephanie Meyer. Usually a court will just order payment of damages (money), except where damages alone would be unjust. In the case of a settlement, however, the parties may agree to whatever terms they want.

Here, as I understand it, the tabs do not contain copyrightable elements separable from those owned by the composer. If a tab contained an adaptation of one instrument to a different instrument or an adaptation of several instruments to a solo instrument, then there may be some separate copyrightable elements in that adaptation. However, if the tabs are merely one-to-one transcriptions of the guitar part of the original composition, then once you take away the original composition there is nothing left that is separately copyrightable. If that is the case, then the tab creators have no rights, even though they spent time and effort in the transcription.

> if I were to trespass onto your land and paint a beautiful painting of your landscape

This example is easy to answer. I wouldn't own the painting because it was merely left on my property (technically, I would be called an involuntary bailee). I wouldn't own the copyright to the painting because I didn't paint it. If the landscape is natural, then I don't own any copyright in it because I didn't create it (in copyright terms, I'm not the author). The landscape might include something copyrightable, however, perhaps a sculpture that I created. In that case the painting may infringe on that copyright, but I would have to make the usual arguments (literal copying, substantial similarity, etc.) and you would make the usual defenses (fair use, etc.).
I thought it was discovered by Descartes? My Phil is a bit rusty so go easy on me.
If I sing a song copyright belongs to author. If I play a music copyright belongs to author. If I read book copyright belongs to author. If I draw a character copyright belongs to author. If I play a scene copyright belongs to author.

Obviously there is a difference between copyright and infringement. Or DMCA should take down playgrounds.

Can one make a business by printing copyrighted music score/tabs? No.

Can one educate playing music with copyrighted tabs? Yes, fair use allows with limitations [1], somewhat similar to libraries not ready for digital age.

> As another comment added, I will never put my self in a position where anyone can smell my body odour but why shower so frequently if your body isn't telling you, "it's a bit dirty over here, I could do with a rinse?".

There is so much of our culture ingrained in this sentence that any conclusions we draw from it risk being warped. I don't know what's really going on but I put forward this theory:

1. We are probably supposed to put ourselves in positions where someone else can smell us. It's very, very, common in the animal kingdom.

2. Given 1 your body is probably not asking for a rinse. The message that your body is trying to convey might not be intended for you all.

3. Humans are intelligent enough to realize this and have the capability to alter the way they smell. This has led to an elaborate competition for social status based upon artificial fragrances.

4. Humans are intelligent enough to realize even this so from there it might very well be the case that your body is asking you for a rinse. But it's all meta at this point. ;-)
Amazon restricts how rival device makers buy ads on its site
Thanks for the reply. I think you understand my comment as making a point about the "naturalness" of eating animals (I certainly did not use the expression "natural order"). I'm rather making a point about universality. As far as I can tell, all animals eat other living things- be it plants or other animals. Humans eat both plants and other animals. This is not my choice, so I don't feel morally responsible for it. It's how I found things when I came into this world.

I would rather things were different. I would rather not have to kill anything in order to feed. However, this is what we do. We kill other animals and eat them. We kill plants and eat them. Well, at least we usually eat them (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surplus_killing). Note that I find killing for sport morally unjustifiable.

Rape and murder are not universals. That is, some animals rape and murder their own and some cannibalise their own, but not all animals do. In any case, I personally have never felt a compelling need to rape or murder anyone, so I can attest to the fact that it's not a universal experience for humans to rape and murder (assuming I'm actually human and not some weird mutation eh).

Edit: As a summary of my views, I recommend "that's how it works" over "it's the natural order", which has connotations of a moral imperative that I don't recognise.
One of the goals of Panama is to replace JNI, actually.
Sorry for the tangential drift but it's ubiquitous now. I guess those boring grammar pedants should finally give up. The totally meaningless and incorrect apostrophe in it's (unless it indicates an abbreviation) has gone viral. You can even find it in headlines in newspapers. Odd really that many of us go to the trouble of adding a pointless character intent as we are on writing correct English. I think we should keep on trying though.

Status flags are a bit of a nightmare if you're building a massively superscalar implementation, every instruction has an explicit dependency on the one before - there have been a bunch of different solutions which often cost instruction decode space. RISC-V says "usually we don't care, let's only take the cost when we really need it" which is a very RISCish sort of thing to do.

For those who haven't dabbled RISC-V has compare-and-branch instructions rather than branch on condition instructions
