If you want to live in SC or FL, Philly was never the right place for you. The city exemplifies all classic east coast metropolii; it's vertical, industrial, impatient, no-nonsense and in-your-face. Having lived here for 15 years I've seen Philly offer a little bit of everything, from cultured worldliness to provincial naval gazing. And all of it happens at an urban breakneck speed the east coast is rightly famous for.

Philly, Boston, and NYC are kith and kin (esp. politically), and have much more in common with SF than do SC or non-urban FL. There the tempo of life is slower and more formal, like their danse de rigueur, the gavotte.
Those are exciting news. Both for Rust and for the project -- I think that's a really cool direction. The web becomes more and more a commodity to execute code remotely, and I think this step will help leverage Website-as-Interface as the default GUI for our programs, and empower us to commoditize it even more. And the Linux Foundation is a very lovely home -- they're dedicated to open standards and great stewards. However, complete lack of talk about funding and "every bit helps" makes it sound like this is actually the death of commercial support for this project. And I think it's super sad that Mozilla can't fund it anymore and would've hoped someone else would have picked up the banner monetarily. Does anyone know if the project has a good chance of survival (Rust is a great dev community, but might alienate broader adoption) -- can this survive purely within the open source community?

How do you get a job? It has been 11 years since I left college and I still haven't been able to get a job. I have seen skilless people given countless opportunities to grow with a company.

Qualcomm chips don't have on-chip DRAM at the highest clock rate possible. If they did the same things Apple is doing in that way, the performance advantage of M1 shrinks. There's no real "magic" in the M1 or Apple, it's a reality distortion field that is hitting everyone right now. It's entirely possible to outperform the M1, there just hasn't been a need to do that until now - no major OS would have benefitted from an ARM on steroids before now so there wasn't even a need for it.

Right, as you noticed in your second comment, I'm talking about the inner -1, which should never be hit. The issue is broader than just the specific issue of binary search; it's a question of, which language design features lead you to writing more reliable software, more easily?

I'm unconvinced about array access returning Maybe being a good idea, because it's generally a bug, not actual uncertainty. The fact that the usage of the returned maybe value just serves to obscure possible bugs in the implemenatation of binary search is one example of that.

At the broadest level, running a program can be thought of as the combination of two things:

1. The program itself

2. The input to the program

Now there are two ways your program can encounter an "error". It can be because there is a bug in (1), or it can be because there is bad input in (2).

I think as a general rule, to handle (1) you just need to crash gracefully. The program itself has become confused; there is nothing you can do to recover. For (2), the program itself is not confused, and it should handle the data it has been given in the best possible way.

Thus, things like sum-types are appropriate for type 2 errors, but not for type 1 errors.

(That's my argument, anyway.)

Seems to be getting hugged to death.

From the brief amount of time playing with it, it seems to be rather basic in it's outfit generation.

For example I picked an orange tennis sweater. And it recommended black full zip jacket (to go over the orange tennis sweater? so basically they recommend you not wear a orange tennis sweater?), hot pink trousers and white espadrilles.

So it seems to match color with a random item (hot pink trousers and a black top? and white shoes?). The shoes are also summer shoes, and if you are wearing a sweater with a zip up jacket over top you probably need more then a single ply fabric shoe with rope soles.

Second time it picked a brown fleece jacket to go over your orange sweater, with khaki pants, and light blue tennis sneakers. First why would you ever wear a fleece jacket over top of a tennis sweater, usually tennis sweaters are knit so you are wearing sheep on top of sheep, unless you are playing in -20c probably a bit excessive.

Moral of the story is it seems to be more of a random clothing articles mixed with colour combinations then an actual outfit generator.

"The state" refers to the governing apparatus, not a particular state within the union. I understand there may be some confusion if you are not familiar with the US government and typical ways of talking about it.
The one thing that I don't think either has tackled is that things like OOM can leave synchronized blocks in a bad state. There are certain errors which should kill the whole process which is why they have the flag that lets you do that. But for more mundane errors, you have an escape hatch.
Can someone help me understand something?

Back in March, we had ~40k new cases per day, and were seeing ~3k deaths per day.

Today, we have ~140k new cases per day, but our deaths seem to be ~1k per day, and haven't risen much with rise in cases since September.

What explains this? Were we not testing as much in March, and really our cases were ~200k per day? Or were the populations that got sick in March somehow different than today?
Competitive forces in the health care market in the US don't function (pretty much at all) because of government induced market distortions and regulatory capture. FDA certification enormously drives up the cost of medicines and medical devices; government bureaucrats have no incentive to balance safety with time to market, price, availability, supply, or diversity of sources; most of these represent risk to the people making the decisions. Most US consumers don't pay for their own medical care, they pay for insurance that pays for their medical care. Often their employer pays some of the costs of insurance. Insurance usually fixes the cost that the consumer has to pay, e.g. a $10 copay. So there's little incentive for consumers to shop around for medical care, meaning that consumers can't drive prices down with normal market decisions. States and the federal government put enormous restrictions on insurance, driving up the cost of insurance. Health insurance doesn't function as in other sectors, where payouts are rare- most insurance is a bet - I'll bet you $3000 a year my house burns down - I'll bet you $400000 it doesn't. Health insurance is more like a discount plan, kind of like a CostCo membership. AMA and insurance companies lobby for limiting supply of doctors and hospitals, respectively, which drives costs up. They do this under state licensure laws purporting to improve quality or safety. Bottom line is that almost every single aspect of the US health care market has had government intervention effectively disable any market based control. The situation would fix itself quickly if we deregulated EVERYTHING regarding healthcare, and restricted insurance to catastrophic event coverage. Businesses would quickly come up with ways to serve the market in a market-friendly fashion. Worried about pre-existing conditions? We'd see businesses like "diabetes maintenance organzations" where you pay a monthly fee and you get all the treatment you need related to that condition. Accidents would still be covered by insurance. You'd pay privately for things like doctor visits for the flu, etc., but supply and consumer choice would drive those costs down, e.g. if I have a sprained ankle I could just use an app on my phone to summon a military vet who was a battlefield medic to treat it, rather than pay for 15-30min of time of someone with 24 years and half a million dollars worth of education. What about quacks/frauds? We know how to deal with them - reputation (AngiesList, Consumer Reports, Google Reviews) on the front-end, courts on the back-end.
This is a wonderful tool, thanks for making this available.
PhD involves years of thinking very specifically about an extremely narrow set of problems, not building a robust set of reliable heuristics about how the world outside of that field works.

I know plenty of brilliant PhDs and Physicians who couldn't real-world their way out of a paper bag. They're dumb as a rock when it comes to anything outside of their field, because their field has vacuumed up all of their mental energy over the decades.

By comparison, I'm pretty mediocre at what I do because I read widely, follow the news, and have elaborate political discussions for fun. By their standard, I'm dumb as a rock because I'm up late reading about the Soviets in Afghanistan, instead of yet another journal article.

Time is finite, and it's all a big compromise.

Seems to me, off chip RAM becomes a new sort of cache.

If Apple sizes the on chip RAM large enough for most tasks to fly, bigger system RAM can get paged in and performance overall would be great, until a user requires concurrent performance exceeding on chip RAM.

Yes, ARM is one piece of many. (Commented about this above)

Though I suspect if Qualcomm were able to source a TSMC 5nm chip, it would be more competitive with Apple than Intel is at this point though.

Technically in Italy if you bought a license and the manufacturer won't support it anymore, you can use it on another platform even downloading an illegal copy.

As long as you have the original license.

That's the same reason why you can listen to mp3s if you own the original record, you have the right to keep a copy and the right to use it even if the manufacturer stop supporting it, because you bought it in perpetuity when you bought the product

That's why I stay away from the new licenses that give you none of those rights

> Apple have screwed themselves over a bit here by sticking ARM-based Apple silicon in their lower-end/entry level devices first

This is the Innovator's Dilemma [1] Apple built its success on avoiding.

> if they'd started at the high end

They'd have to R&D through the M1 to something more advanced. It would go to market later to be bought in smaller volumes by pickier customers.

Usually, this is a good strategy. Scaling is expensive. Starting small at the highest unit volumes subsidises scaling. But Apple is uniquely unconstrained here. Starting with the most technically forgiving makes sense.

You may not buy an Apple product now. But you will wonder "what will Apple's high end product be" when weighing a competitor's offerings.

Don't rely on politicians to do direct questioning of witnesses. Politicians have the wrong incentives, and generally lack the skills, to do anything other than grandstand in public meetings.

I still consider K&R to be "the" book to learn and appreciate C. Over two decades, I have seen/read several books, but keep coming back to K&R. It isn't just about the language that makes K&R great -- along with the ride also comes valuable (programming) life lessons, experience with terse language (minimum words to express maximum thought), and a lot of historical perspective that most modern books omit.

I would also recommend using the Steve Summit's "C Programming Notes" as you work your way through K&R. Pay attention to the "deep sentences". https://www.eskimo.com/~scs/cclass/krnotes/top.html

And don't skip the exercises at the end of each chapter. The discover of solving the exercises on your own is a revelation that far surpasses any benefit obtained by being told how to do it! :-)

This is hands down one of my favorite tools.

When advising people on content/blogging/marketing this is the one I always recommend. In building up a content engine the first piece is always around velocity... just practice getting more out there. Get used to publishing two posts a week, and over time it'll come faster. The next step is quality, but using hemingway early on is a good shortcut to level up the quality. I generally recommend a grade level not above 8 for a blog post, and 6 is ideal.

Even beyond blog posts I find it is useful for any communication that goes out to some set of people. If you're spending time drafting an email to your internal team, asking a favor of someone, just about anything where you really want to level up the quality hemingway is a huge positive impact for not much effort.
I strongly disagree. “Some misguided old people in the Midwest” are not like heroin addicts quietly overdosing and dying out of sight, they are drunk drivers careening down the highway in a twenty ton truck.
For most people CI matching production should be enough. Even if there are issues with dev machines on a different architecture, I don't think that will be enough to stop people from grabbing the latest MBP when their next upgrade cycle appears.
