How are the church and state coupled? A corporation can bribe politicians with money, but what can a religious institution do?

People vote based on their opinions. Their opinions can be influenced by many things. Sometimes their opinions are influenced by their religious affiliation. Sometimes their opinions are influenced by comments on HN. But HN has no actual leverage over the state and neither does the church.
> So you say that users pirate the music and then buy the same music they illegally downloaded?

Yes? That is really not as far fetched as you make it sound. I have no problem paying a creator for something that I enjoy. But I do want to know that its worth the money. In older times we would use the radio to help make that decision. Nowadays there is so much more available than what is played radio, but I still want to make an informed decision. Youtube works well for that too.
I think you can legalize things and still discourage the use of. Look at tobacco as an example. Or even alcohol. I'd argue that it's actually easier to discourage with legalization that without, but this is debatable. My position is that if it's legal that makes it easier to seek treatment. Seeking out treatment isn't going to get you fired or put in jail while you're trying to turn your life around.
It has been a few years since I poked at it last, but there is some light obfuscation and inline comments on how to remove it. They fully expect people to peak under the hood but at least make it difficult for someone who has no idea what they are doing to break things.

Because of COVID or just the state of the prison system in general? Personally, I would say either case, but the system itself is not going to agree with it. There have been reports of some people allowed to stay in house arrest rather than reporting to jail.
You can spin it also that ie weed makes tastes go to overdrive, so you can do quality sweet/salty 'food pairing' with same intentions and results as wine pairing - things taste better. In fact, ridiculously way better.

Munchies ritual became part of my trips when I used to smoke, since such an experience in regard of taste can't be provided by any michelin star restaurant, no matter how hard they try (although they do provide great experience in other forms). Its unhealthy, its practically impossible to just nibble, rather devour a metric ton and some more.

Let's stop pretending people do drugs for anything but drug's effect on them. Wine is no different, plenty of folks who are alcoholics run purely on wine, albeit on different quantities than small glass of red.

cautionary tale from my CS desk - first dozen papers, just what was described above.. next, complete actual work using the knowledge - hey! I belong here! .. next, read a few more and decide "I can do this" and collect three or six dozen additional papers from the reference notes, new discoveries, and latest pubs, mix them all in the same collection of PDF (!)

now you have sixty+ complex papers, at least a third of which are not actually very important, useful or thorough.. and where are those original, carefully chosen ten you started with ?

side note - the "focus on the figures" reading advice does not scale, since most search is first and foremost with text. Which of the now-eighty papers (and growing, the field is hot) are the ones you cared about and understand.. ? "piled higher and deeper - PhD" indeed!

> Sure, a button function that returns a boolean can be used as a simple parameter to an if statement, but you would would need a switch statement to test for all the different events that a text editor could send. That's a terrible clumsy API!

Yes indeed, it would be stupid for a text editor to force you to react on one million events or state changes. But this not how text editors are used. To use text editor in most case you only care about the text contents. Any other information is opt-in.

> And where do you store the complex state of the attributed text, or parsed source code in a code editor? Do you just pass the entire string in every frame and re-parse html each time?

You store it wherever you'd store it normally. Many of your question are assuming - and it's a misunderstanding - that IMGUI means that everything HAS to be recomputed every frame. What matters if the interface presented to the UI programmer. Of course the non-trivial text editor requiring a heavy parser, is going to store data if it needs to do so. What's the problem? Did you expect that IMGUI used zero-byte of memory and never store anything?

Text editor:

> You can't just store that state in the actual objects you're showing in the outline, because that mixes your user interface layer with your data modeling layer.

Ever heard of data structures? You can associate data to an object given its ID without storing data inside the object.. This is what practically any advanced widgets in IMGUI land work. If you need 1 piece of data, use a dumb containers, if you need N pieces of data, use a map.

> And how do you implement efficient scrolling lists or tables or spreadsheets containing thousands or even hundreds of thousands of items? Do you have to pass every single item through the API every frame, instead of implementing callbacks to only pass and cache the items that fit on the screen?

You use a function call helping you to submit only items that fit on the screen. There's literally a helper for that in dear imgui.
At this point I'm assuming you have never used what you are criticizing.

> And how do you implement graphics editors?

I've wondered for a while now how various funding and other constraints affect fields of science. In math, CS, or SWE it's easy to pick up a new topic, but in biology and chemistry people seem to have overwhelming tendency to work for decades at a time on singular problem areas. CS papers likely go over history because it tends to be more useful, with chemistry, all interested readers may have 5+ years in that field already.

10 cents is likely closer to being the raw cost of the tag itself; the actual costs including tooling and tracking would likely make this closer to 15-20 cents per unit at scale.

This is a little tricky. A church cannot voice a political opinion, if they want to keep their 501 tax exemption. They can voice their opinions (1st amendment) but they'd give up those specific tax exemptions and would need to move to a different charity type. (This is why the ACLU has two organizations, one you can donate to with tax exemption and the other you cannot because they lobby the government).
That doesn’t seem to work in the context of MLAT, although I imagine that it depends a little on the country and the case, even though it shouldn’t.

I think it's important to be clear, the "rights" of corporations are the rights of their owners/shareholders. It's jaded, but it's best to assume that a "corporation's best interest" equates to what makes them the most money; nothing more, nothing less. And of course, it's to make more money for ownership that already has money.

I don't think that the point of corporate vs public best interest is "unconditional", but we skew way too far to the corporate side than is good for our society
Is he over 55? If not his chance of dying or even contracting COVID is incredibly small. It might be a valid argument to delay extradition until after the WHO declares an end to the pandemic, but not to prevent it entirely.

I think there has existed Erlang to C compilers in the past and there are new one popping up every now and then. In general though AOT is in many ways considered a dead end for many unless you have a certain application for it (even if that was my uni thesis subject).

You can look back all the way to a 1995 paper (1) (with people that then worked on early Java JIT's) that did a comparison of JIT vs AOT compilation for Self, while good AOT is kind of feasible in many ways there is always situations in languages not initially designed for AOT where a JIT won't be forced to go with conservative estimates that hampers performance.

> I do not agree with decriminalising the trade in drugs.

Why not? Do you support criminal cartels making lots of money off of them or do you think that the War on Drugs will actually get rid of that criminal element which profits from them at some point?

I don't see a problem with anyone putting anything they want into their own body. Arrest them when they commit an actual victim-ful crime like stealing but not before that.

To that end, I say sell them with regulation just like Alcohol. Keeping sales illegal means questionable sources, questionable quality and enormous profits for criminal gangs.

Interesting. Here is also a podcast about the topic: https://thinkingelixir.com/podcast-episodes/017-jit-compiler...

Had a brief look at asmjit; as it seems it only supports x86 and x86_64 and is not really an abstraction (i.e. a platform independent IR). I will try to find out why they didn't use e.g. LLVM or sljit.

EDIT: according to this article (https://www.erlang-solutions.com/blog/performance-testing-th...) the speed-up factor caused by the JIT is about 1.3 to 2.3 (as a comparison the speed-up between the PUC Lua 5.1 interpreter and LuaJIT 2.0 is about factor 15 in geometric mean over all benchmarks, see http://luajit.org/performance_x86.html).
yes. aneutreonic, a reaction with "less" neutrons would be cleaner. either you have less/no neutrons, or you absorb the neutrons you have. they make the structure radioactive and/or change it chemically (embrittlement) or, you absorb them into other things to make them radioactive, and useful.

A jet engine that needs forward motion to compress air is called a "ram jet" which is only used in a few applications even though it is so simple.

Airplanes normally use either "turbo jets" or "turbo fans". These use the exhaust to spin a turbine at the back of the engine which in turn spins a compressor at the front (and also a larger "fan" in the case of a turbo fan). So the airplane can be completely stopped at the end of the runway and rev up the engine to full power to start the takeoff.

A normal plane only needs its engines to have enough thrust that is a fraction of the craft's weight to overcome drag enough to keep it flying at cruise speed. So pointing it down would not lift the plane off the ground. But there have been designs with powerful enough jet engines:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryan_X-13_Vertijet

An alternative is to rotate just the engine instead of the whole plane, and even more practical is to simply divert the exhaust of a horizontal engine downwards when needed:
