>Running from 0 to -6 is 7 iterations.

I guess it depends on your definition of an iteration. I view an iteration as including the iteration expression (i-- in this case) at the end. So during 7 iterations, i-- has executed 7 times, so the value of i is -7. You seem to be saying the iteration expression belongs to the next iteration as opposed to belonging to the currently ending iteration.

I think my view is the widely accepted view. Check out how cppreference rewrites a for loop:

{
init_statement
while ( condition ) {
statement
iteration_expression ;
}
}

In our specific case:

{
i = 0;
while (i < 6) {
printf(".");
i--;
}
}

https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/for

Also the article doesn't say "running |INT_MIN| + 1 iterations" it says "after |INT_MIN| + 1 iterations". I think in that case, even if you don't consider the final i-- to be part of the "n + 1 iterations", you would still consider the final i-- to be done "after |INT_MIN| + 1 iterations".
The problem isn’t that they allow bad people to communicate. It’s that they give bad people a giant megaphone and tools to point it at the people most susceptible to their horrible messages. If they limited this then the actual content wouldn’t be as much of a problem.
This is already happening.

Uber is making you pay more when your phone is low on battery (because they know you don't have too much time to think about how you're getting back home).

Airline companies are showing you higher prices if they believe you can afford it, from the information they're getting about you (like your user agent).
Right, we are in agreement here; the person I replied to insinuated it was unethical for them to disable anyone, as it would be a violation of free speech. As you have just explained, it is not.
Every time a thread like this comes up, I feel that I would like to read some comments that are not assertions on why JavaScript (or Python for that matter) is a bad idea to put on "everything".

If nothing else, it seems like a good idea to make microcontroller programming more accessible using one of the most used languages.

I'm not sure arguments regarding performance, or how readily available learning resources are for lower-level programming languages, are relevant here because those are likely not the concerns for anyone who wish to take advantage of frameworks like the one in question.

To many people the programming part is just a means to an end: for example, making LEDs blink for costumes. So why not celebrate when there are more accessible solutions available to them?
Let us know how it went!

I just counted "a sufficiently stable life that it's still there when you return" as part of "safety" and "comfort". If traveling is a priority for you, you can live the life of a wandering monk, with the associated downsides.
Good points, thank you for explaining!

I can see an argument for wrapping it in a macro so you can turn off nulling in debug builds (ASan might even have hooks so you can automate this, I know Valgrind does). But use-after-free is worse than just double-frees, and if you read a dangling pointer in production there's no real way to catch it AFAIK. Last I heard (admittedly been a few years since I checked), you're not supposed to deploy ASan builds because they actually increase the attack surface.

So, your program's memory is full of these dangling pointers, and at some point you will have a bug you didn't catch and use one. And you can't even write an assertion to check that it's valid. What do you propose?

And again to clarify, I'm not trying to advocate for hiding bugs. I want to catch them early (e.g. with assertions), but I also want to avoid reading garbage at runtime at all costs, because that's how programs get pwn'd.
I fully agree with your last sentence. But I think that nobody is seriously arguing that the US or European countries should become autarchies and produce _everything_ themselves again. (That whole "decoupling from China" is considered unfeasible and highly disruptive/dangerous at least by EU officials that I have personally heard from.) Instead, certain products and production capacities should be preserved at a minimum level. This is economically unprofitable but can save your country's collective butt in an emergency if it's properly managed and production can be ramped up quickly by getting a network of companies to switch their production (eg masks). I would expect my government to think about these long-odds, high risk events and take measures to prevent them or at least mitigate them. More traditional examples of this kind of thinking are strategic stockpiles of oil, food etc. If the covid-19 pandemic has shown one thing, it's that just in time manufacturing and globalized highly-optimized supply chains can fail spectacularly.
are you asking that if I am snowden or assange and have managed to uncover the work of 3 letter organisations. No, just like people speculate about why Tether is still alive. I speculate that they might have cut a deal with the various 3 letter agencies to provide data on USD -> USDT flows which will help deanonymize huge branches of the transaction graph. In that way 3 letter agencies can keep an eye on the flows. In return all cases against them will be held up and will not move fast.

In the case of secretive 3 letter organisations you can only observe their actions by second-order effects. In this case the lack of significant prosecution against Tether.
We stopped news and newspapers around 2010-2011. Neighbors, friends, and relatives are surprised when we have no newspapers at home (Newspapers are still an in-thing in India). My wife started subscribing to Newspaper now just so she can wrap her wet-garbage in it. I’m still looking for a bio-degradable solution to store wet-garbage for at-least 24-hours.

I stopped all unscheduled phone calls except from a “!DND” group for the past many years and I love it. In-fact, when iOS 14 changed the interface for phone calls, I was dumb-founded few times before I realize the tiny notification like thing on the top is the phone reject/accept interface. Anyone can lead a distraction free phone life[1].

I disabled almost all forms of notifications a while back and I’m super happy with that decision. My default when adding any new App/Program to my toolset is to start by turning off notifications[2].

Good point. But it seems like it would require usage like this:

int* p = malloc(sizeof(int));
FREE(&p);

What if we instead define the macro like this:

#define FREE(ptr) do { \
__typeof__(ptr)* const __x = &(ptr); \
free(*__x); *__x = NULL; \
} while(0)

Then make usage slightly shorter, as well as more similar to free():

int* p = malloc(sizeof(int));
FREE(p);
I have showdead turned on so see shadow banned comments.

What you're claiming is wrong and misleading. It's rare and almost always justified.

For the times it isn't, which I haven't seen for a few years, I've emailed those people where they've shown an email.

They usually say thanks, that other people have also emailed them and they'll contact the mod team.

i.e. there are plenty of long-term members of this site that keep an eye on shadow bans and we generally thintk it's working as intended.

I checked one out a couple of days ago, and literally 4 comments earlier dang had warned them that if they kept it up with the short, low-quality comments they'd probably end up shadow-banned.

I believe standard co-founder agreements have a "without cause" termination or "resign for Good Reason" agreement which accelerates the co-founder's vesting cycle in event of death or disability. The transfer of shares by will or intestacy to immediate family members may or may not be subject to a repurchase option by the Company.

Tl;dr it depends entirely on the specific wordings of stock purchase the agreement.

I'm a former homemaker with a serious medical condition. I also worked at an insurance company for over five years processing accident claims. This involved training in medical terminology and involved reading medical records daily.

But I am generally looking for something more "plain English"/layman's terms than the titles on that page. And a guy with a PhD in Chemistry once told me, essentially, "Never read the abstract. It often says something different from the study. Read the study or skip it altogether as a waste of your time."

So I would like to live in a world where every research foundation has a page that says something like this (made up example):

"We are the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and our research helped develop Hypertonic Saline, a non-drug lung treatment. We were founded in X year and since then life expectancy for CF has gone from about 18 years of age to about 36 years of age. Although a cure is still far off, our work has tremendously improved both survival and quality of life in CF patients (insert more metrics supporting that last statement)."
I really don’t get the point of averaging two different dose regimens when only one of the two will be used in practice. The real news here is 90% efficacy, plus it will get even easier to mass produce because it will only require a half dose the first time.
From my point of view, this is all very encouraging and actually lets me find redeeming qualities in this whole Corona crisis. While the SARS-COV-2 virus is certainly not to be trifled with, it's easy to imagine more serious virus outbreaks and I think after this pandemic is over, we will be capable of developing effective vaccines for many viruses in 6 months which would make us much more resilient in the future.
I can never understand why these are the only two sides of the triangle.

This issue seems to solve itself. When the risk is higher/more unknown in the early stage, groups that have high/known risk with Covid can take the vaccine. As time passes, more and more data will be gathered on the vaccine risk so the group that can make the correct statistical call to take the vaccine grows. Whether healthy children will take it in 1, 2, 5 or 10 years deepends on what the statistics turn out to be and whether it's required to protect others.
You can absolutely call into OS APIs, as that's what the Go implementation does to interact with the OS in the first place.

This vaccine isn't mRNA though.
Except it does - whatever 'hate speech' is supposed to be.
However, mRNA vaccines require low temperature storage and are in general harder to handle. This translates to additional cost in production, throughout the logistics chain and delivery.

FWIW I'm inferring from the post you replied to that they think 'drugs are bad' so saying that Fox did drugs in his youth is a condemnation when you have that mindset.
There's a plausible alternative interpretation.. many many people in public sector enjoy not being pressured, not because they're lazy or sad, but because they'd rather respect themselves first. In the private sector, your job is on the line, the burden is on you and you'll have to bend over to avoid being fired.. it may not necessarily be sane motivation driving people to enter the building.
Vinyl is a bit soft for long term archival; harder materials are better!

The Long Now Foundation has something very like this with the Rosetta Disk - it's a language archive on encased metal disk, and designed to be read optically; the first parts with the naked eye and the rest with a microscope.

> Compiling expressive syntax through a powerful optimizing compiler to produce binaries run by microcontrollers is really sweet. Definitely the way to go, if you want to get the most functionality from limited hardware, without going all the way to assembly.

I highlight that. In fact, Rust is another kid on the block that is very promising for embedding.

In the other hand, sorry but I simply don't get why JS for interactions on such highly constrained devices. Probably as you said, it's intended to do very simple things with less effort as possible.
We can't. If everybody turns into superheros in 10 years, we wouldnt know; or maybe this is actually the backstory of 'children of men'; we can't know. RNA vaccines are researched in animals for about a decade, but long term effects are usually not beeing found in such studies (disection usually cuts that short). There is though no theoretical nor experiental evidence for that.
If there are lot of potential people with willingness to train and a market to pay for trained people a market for training them with deferred loans etc. would be there?

Yes it does. What you can have, and usually do, is free speech with limitations, and this can vary greatly. What you have in the US is limitations, for example, regarding content that includes minors. In my country, racist speech falls under anti-racism laws, so our free speech has even more limitations, or, to put it another way, our speech is 'less' free.
People who can't afford to settle down, who are spending significant amounts of their income on rent, and who don't see much reward for their effort tend not to have children. In the long term that leads to an aging population, which can cripple the productivity and growth of entire regions. That can be combatted to an extent through immigration policies, but only if people actually want to move to a region that needs more people.

These are not just first world problems. These are problems that could, potentially, destroy entire economies.
Better that than to be seen to overstate its effectiveness. The worst case scenario is people refuse to take it because they think they're being lied too or manipulated in some way.
While for now just speculation and without a doubt Machiavellian, it could be that this price difference ends up a significant factor for major economies in their choice for an expensive vaccine. I guess we will know, if/when/once examples of individual discrimination based on what vaccine people received start emerging (hopefully, never).

Regretfully, it would be not the first example of major economies using the current reality as an excuse/cover to conveniently push political policies/agendas that would otherwise have been impossible to implement (at least not without violating laws/treaties and maybe even basic human rights). I have no intention to fear monger, but I believe way too many are too naive about some of the things that are currently happening. That is, mostly people within those major economies, for people in less fortunate countries already learned the hard way how double-faced those major economies turned out.

How all this will eventually turn out ... anyone's guess is as good as mine. I guess we will all learn, when the immediate emergency of the current situation is over. I would prefer to be/remain optimistic, but thus far there appear to be more reasons for caution and skepticism (at best).

Nope - ps5 is same as last generation GPU in terms of both performance and features (e.g. Nvidia Turing). The 1050ti is the generation before that (Pascal).

M1 has "variable rate shading", and "streaming memory compression" (since, at least, A12) - in addition to many, many more features both before and since. I don't understand why you would think otherwise. Go read the docs.

We can't just talk about "faster memory", as the architecture is so completely different. But lets just start by saying that it is DDR4 in the M1 vs DDR3 (GDDR5) in the 1050ti. i.e. its MUCH lower latency, and has a higher bandwidth per module. It is also utilises a unified memory pool. i.e. the CPU can GPU access the same memory - so there is no "transfer" involved. This isn't your "shared memory integrated GPU" of old.

As I said, there is no fair benchmark to compare theses two. Based on openGL, the m1 wins. You think the 1050ti features would make it more performant - I'm saying the m1 has those same features (and more), that also wouldn't be utilised up by a simple openGL benchmark.

By all means enjoy your ps5. It is a great console (I want one myself), and it isn't being threatened by the m1.

But don't deceive yourself into thinking it is something magical, or cutting edge - or that a trillion-dollar computer hardware designer and manufacturer doesn't have the know-how to create something as performant.

For me, it's not quite so simple as that. I will vaccinate my children, partly to protect them (though the risk to them is low, as you say), but mostly to protect me and my wife, and more importantly our elderly parents. None of the vaccines are 100% effective, and if I can reduce the chances of my kids bringing Covid into the family, I will.

By the time the vaccine is available for my kids, hundreds of millions of people will have already been vaccinated, and there will be very extensive safety data. Part of the requirements for emergency use authorization is extensive monitoring of safety, so if there's any problem with one particular vaccine, it will be known by then.
>So the amount shed is too low to infect anyone beyond 9-10 days (I think, I am not a virologist, etc.)

I don't think it is that much of a stretch. As it is, most employees in the US barely have enough time to take a day off to vote, although that is getting easier with mail-in ballots.
