Rapid prototyping and in the case of Jetson - computer vision and Tensorflow running on the GPU. Both have excellent support for Python.

Sure you can make those things run natively but people using them are used to Python, lot of code is written in Python for it and there is little to no performance penalty of running the code in Python (everything perf. critical is running natively anyway, Python is only used to "glue" those bits seamlessly together).

And once you have RAM in gigabytes even the extra memory overhead of Python becomes a moot point.

What do you mean by that? Can't we clear a list by doing:

L[:] = []

(useful when L is defined in another scope, or when you want to keep a reference to the same list object)

Unfortunately it's not possible to search for "[:]", so pointers appreciated
I would love to pay money for this. It is exactly the case that there's lots of long-form online content I want to read, and would love to read on paper.

> you cannot accept community patches to the GPL software and use them for your closed-source branch.

You can if the community developers give you permission (licenses) to keep offering the whole project under both open and commercial terms. Happens all the time.

Many companies use contributor license agreements for this. Others simply ask that community contributors make their work available under permissive terms like Apache, MIT, or BSD.
Just as an FYI, I've run into browser compatibility issues when using grid. It's been a while since I worked on that project, so hopefully mobile / edge / safari / chrome / firefox are all on the same page now, but it wasn't great a year or two ago. Go here [1] and keep hitting more, there are unfortunately lots of things not working in Safari and partly in Firefox.

The people who were working there were forced discuss or be "activists" by other coworkers. That isn't a position of power, it's others directly encroaching on their space and working conditions.

This is a direct example of what you are denying, that people are somehow not being forced to participate in these politics. They are, and increasingly so, with very few companies taking such an active stance to combat it.

And yes, neutrality is specifically the absence of any single position. It cannot be an endorsement of anything, be definition. Redefining terms to be whatever is politically convenient to create strawman positions and drama is another tactic used by those who want to force politics into every situation.

The people building stuff like that generally need a 6-12 lead time from project proposal to delivery.
The key metric is pixels per degree, which is going to come from both the field of view in VR as well as the monitor resolution.

To put this in Snellen eye chart perspective, in order to read the 20/20 line and distinguish letter details to tell them apart, you have to be able to see details as fine as 1 arc min - 1/60th of a degree.

So basically if your math comes up with less than 60 pixels per degree, you are going to essentially be near sighted inside of the VR environment.

Let's say you have a set of VR goggles with a 140 degree field of view. You need 140 degrees * 60 pixels/degree =8400 pixels to get that same visual acuity as 20/20 vision in real life.

Using HP's new G2 goggles (coming out soon) as an example, they have a screen resolution of 2,160 pixels,and (I've read) about a 100 degree horizontal FOV. That works out to about 22 pixels per degree. Which is about like having 20/55 vision. This is why in VR, you can't read things from a normal distance if drawn to scale. You have to either get closer to them (in VR) or scale them up to make them readable.

You CAN give the user effectively better vision by reducing the field of view. If you don't mind having a 36 degree wide field of view, you'll have 20/20 vision.

Do Teslas (or other cars) phone home and report where they've been? (DriveNow BMWs, which are technically rentals, do that, so they have that capability.) Have you driven anywhere where -- if you were to run for office -- you wouldn't want the public to know? Or, how would you change your behavior and places you visited if you knew you were "being watched"?
That would imply that the balance of power never shifts, which clearly isn't true over the long term.
I don't know about 'want' but it's going to happen.

The branches of the US government are meant as a check against power mongering by the other two branches. We modified other attempts at doing so, and others have done the same with ours.

Normal court cases may not be about politics, but appellate and supreme court cases often are. I can appeal a ruling around a law by putting the law itself on trial, invalidating all or parts of it. If Congress doesn't like it, they can come back and try to change the state or federal constitution to put it back, but that is so difficult that only some very big items make it through.

Where a lower court judge can make a mess is by generating more appeals than we (the People, or the Defendent) can afford to pursue. I think it would be disingenuous to say that isn't also political. I don't see how a judge who favors one side of an unresolved policy dispute can avoid generating extra work for the higher courts. However, they may piss enough people off that the resources are allocated to settle this once and for all, legislatively or judicially.
They already existed for sets and some people want dicts to have analogous behavior.

The MOSE consists of 3 separate installations for 3 different harbor mouths, so in principle it wouldn't have been that much different from the Dutch scenario.
Do we have full subinterpreters support yet? It appears this update impliments seperate schedulers now, but not sure if that means we can run as independent threads or if they're still bound by the main thread.
Have you looked at footage from Tesla cameras at night? They have higher dynamic range than the human eye and they're very sensitive. They can see stars.

The LCD changes its brightness automatically. It also changes from light to dark mode (inverted UI colors) based on the time of day. Still an LCD showing black will leak some light, and as I said those cameras are pretty damn sensitive.
Firefox does a pretty nifty trick to determine whether the computer should use DoH or not. Chrome could do something similar.
Why are there infrastructure costs for a database server? Once you have one it can host all your small databases.
Why not? I made my first Phone OS (RTOS) on 8051 and 256KB ROM in college 20 years ago. Then I worked on several projects and my skills improved. Then I designed a processor architecture, made C-like programming language, created a compiler, an IDE, created a mobile OS and want to build a hardware chip in my startup https://animationcpu.com/
Exactly. I live in the US in a relatively typical suburb and the vast majority of people here don't really have an option on whether or not they drive. Our public transit is lacking, jobs are inflexible with WFH, and the majority of housing located close to where jobs are clustered is exorbitantly expensive.

The issue is also compounded if you work a blue collar job where it's likely that you aren't even commuting to the same place every day and need to haul tools with you.

It's really easy for people to make blanket statements that you shouldn't drive if you have a history of being tired at the wheel, but the reality is that a large portion of our population doesn't have an option.

It's possible to be democratically selected, and still have a life-term so you can be insulated from politics. The arbitrary way that the president can select all federal judges for the entire country (to my understanding) not only skews the judicial system, it adds a whole new dimension the the presidential election which really seems to distort what the job is actually intended to be.

For example, it was the sole reason a lot of people voted for Trump: because at this moment in history there happened, through sheer chance, to be this hugely disproportionate opportunity for a party to grab power that will last a generation. Just because a bunch of people retired around the same time. And this momentous opportunity completely hinged on what would already be the most important single election in the land. That doesn't feel remotely like what the founding fathers intended.

I don’t know what you think I have in my unit tests, but it’s almost certainly not whatever you mentioned.

Using excel as an alternative to CSV is fine. It’s not like anyone was doing anhthing complicated here. Just storing data.
There's nothing to convert, Excel natively supports CSV. It just doesn't read beyond a million lines, it presumably won't warn you about that, and if you save the file again (as CSV), the lines will just be gone.
Excel will also happily screw it up and not tell you, as happened here.
Have you heard the slogan "composition over configuration"? That Linux can disable lots of functionality with configuration options isn't good enough.

Basically if Linux is GCC, we need an LLVM go come along.
Can attest to this. Some of the things I've seen excel spreadsheets contorted to do horrify me.

I once got spreadsheet dumped on me to debug because it wasn't working. A colleague used the spreadsheet to 'generate' interest rates that were then input into a mainframe. Dug into the VBA spaghetti mess, turns out this 15 year old script that took 15 minutes to run originally hit a bunch of Oracle/External APIs and performed calculations was now just copying the rates in from a csv file on a shared drive.

The error was caused by an excel formula ticking over a new year causing it to look for a directory it did not need to access that didn't exist. I thought it was pretty funny until I heard that the entire asset finance business had been unable to write any loans for days because of this.

It never made sense to me why these kinds of 'marketing', 'feedback gathering', 'a/b testing', 'email campaign management' and 'project management' tools seem to always make so much money when clearly they add no value at all to the businesses who use them or their customers. They just keep employees busy and create more jobs.
I blame the Federal Reserve Bank's money printing. One of the Fed's 2 mandates is 'job creation' but people severely underestimate how damn good the Fed is at achieving its targets in that regard.

The Fed will keep printing more and more money and jobs will become increasingly useless. It terrifies me to think that the situation could get worse than this and most people still won't notice.

If it continues down this path, in the future, we'll have people whose entire career will be to sit at a desk and stare at a wall from 9am to 5pm and their employers will seriously believe that this activity adds value to the economy.
We'll have consultancies which specialize in wall staring. Some will specialize in staring at white concrete walls, others at wooden walls, etc...

It might sound like I'm joking, but I'm very serious.
The Maeslantkering is only one of a series of structures to control the water flow, the Delta Works[1].

The Oosterscheldekering[2] is a much bigger structure, about nine kilometers long with four kilometers of openable sluices that were added after protests against closing off the water way. Similarly gigantic is the 5 kilometers long Haringvlietdam[3].

These projects are quite old, though, so some innovation to water control is always welcome. The system used by MOSE seems to be quite easy to hide compared to the massive steel and concrete structures of the Dutch system. If it turns out there is no penalty to longevity and maintenance, a system similar to the Italian project might just show up in the Netherlands as well.

It was a problem only because somehow they decided that type annotations should evaluate to something meaningful at runtime, instead of being a compile-time only construct like in every other language.
Split works at run time, but it could, in principle, evaluate at compile time when it has a constant argument.

For example, the ord() Perl function is evaluated at compile time if the argument is a constant string.

(It's not worth it because split() syntax isn't as clean as qw() for this purpose. split's first arg, if present, is the pattern to split on.)
For most people, the other option is to stop driving to work and then be jobless, make their kids go hungry, or go bankrupt. You guys seriously seem to be completely disconnected from what reality looks like for 80%+ of the population.

You keep writing as if this is a normal problem that everyone faces. If it were, and if everyone or even a moderate proportion of drivers were doing what you seem to be arguing is essential, then population numbers would be falling rapidly due to all the fatal accidents. As far as I can see, however, you haven't actually provided any data to back up your repeated claims about how widespread this problem is and how much damage would be caused if the relevant drivers stopped driving when they were unsafe.

You have no idea how microsleep works.

Susceptibility to microsleep is usually a result of failing to sufficient good quality sleep normally, an underlying medical problem, or both. Common conditions like obstructive sleep apnoea can be tested for. Effective treatments like CPAP machines exist. Given that OSA can have other serious health effects as well as causing the unusual tiredness that becomes a danger if you're doing something like driving or operating heavy machinery, investigation and treatment of potential sleep disorders is definitely recommended.

Of course if you simply don't get enough hours of sleep regularly, if you don't sleep well because you do things like drinking excessive amounts of alcohol in the evening, you can go to bed earlier, cut down on the booze, etc.

You (as in specifically you) could be experiencing microsleep on a regular basis and never even know it.

Given that there are many warning signs of microsleeps, one of which is being very tired all the time, and given that the subject of this thread is people driving when they know they're so tired they might fall asleep and having a history of scares caused by falling asleep at the wheel, I don't see that your attempt to make this personal has any relevance to the debate.
None. My wife and two sons also had it and they did not take anything other than tylenol or ibuprofen. I had about a day and a half of ~100.5 temps and severe aches, although the aches may have been partially due to an autoimmune disease I have. The rest of the time it was less bothersome than the average cold.

> You should never get behind the wheel if there's a chance you'll fall asleep!

So, I should never drive? Not OP, but I experience the same thing. Driving just makes me tired. I've tried running A/C at full cold, caffeine, loud music, audiobooks, etc. Nothing helps. The strange thing is, outside of driving I don't get tired or want to fall asleep except at bedtime. I don't drive when I'm drowsy. Driving make me drowsy. The bad thing about it is I usually don't realize that I'm getting sleepy until after I've dozed off once. Then I've got to keep myself awake long enough to get to the next rest stop. 20 minute nap and I'm good to go for another few hours.
It isn't a binary choice between politicians choosing judges, and elections for judges. Both these approaches have the effect of politicising the matter. In England, the legal system has its own (somewhat arcane) solution for appointing judges.

Personally I strongly favour this approach. Judges should not be overtly political, and the process for their appointment should be closer to the way we certify doctors than to the way we choose politicians.

The English system doesn't provide an ironclad guarantee against political meddling, but there's always a tradeoff there: we want both accountability and independence, and these are opposing. (Also, I'm English, for what that's worth.)

Selectively closing certain stores while leaving others open did nothing for public health. People were still buying the same stuff. They were just forced to do it at big box retailers (who also sold "essential" products) instead of small, independent retailers. In the end the virus exposure risk was there same.

In the long run it would have been better to leave all retailers open. Bad economic conditions literally kill people. They die slowly from deaths of despair (chronic disease, substance abuse, suicide) but in the end they're dead all the same.
Isn't there a better way to do this?
That has almost nothing, if not nothing entirely, to do with why SV is in California. Also, are you stating that no other jurisdictions, at all, have this in place?

I work laying down at least one day per week. Its particularly good for sessions of long project work.
Only a yoga mat, regular small couch cushions, and a small adjustable side table are required for my setup (to suspend my laptop from).
Personally I use a wacom tablet and split, vertically arranged keyboard (koolertron), but I dont think those are really necessary.
Touch typing is a must however, as you cant see the keys.
Each half of the keyboard rests on my upper thigh, with one end on the floor, so my arms are in a very natural position resting by my sides.
This setup alleviates all my back pain/tension, and is also easier on the tendons in my wrists and elbows. Working this way extends my maximum working days per week by at least one.

Sorry, it's in French: starting salary for an assistant professor 1727.49 euros. It's similar for a CNRS/INRIA researcher. In practice it's a little higher. After about 15 years, you'll get 3000 euros. Many people get stuck there but it's possible to get a full professor / director of research position.
