If you're interested in what the code is trying to achieve, then `map`, `filter` and the like is clearly more explicit.

If you're interested in what actually gets executed (if you're trying to optimize for performance, say), then the `for` loop is clearly explicit than the abstract counterparts.

It depends on what what you're looking for.
Facebook wasn't removed from apple and google play stores.
The answer is always "what you know". If you don't know something, your choice of stack it won't change the outcome of if you can work with it or not. Make a product, the technology behind it doesn't matter if you make money off it.
>For one thing, this requires us to trust that the gatekeepers who control access are always going to be fair and just and only shut out genuinely bad actors. There's needs to be a process where anyone who wants to can still see and inspect the banned speech to audit whether it was really worth banning or not.

How is this different from what we have today? Who decides what's really worth banning? Why should that person/entity and not another one?

There's no end to this, there's always going to be a something that is just completely arbitrary. IMO the only "solution" is to have a truly decentralized platform.
Why is that worth pointing out?

Did Trump ever call on anyone to riot?
I'm assuming partly inertia, partly the code density not being important enough to do this.
To be clear, while you _can_ go OoO superscalar with a stack machine, it's more work than with an ISA that exposes the dependencies, like VLIW or EDGE.

Don't take my word for it, design, model, simulate, and implement it yourself. It's a small matter of coding.

EDIT: Reduceron is an example of a super-scalar stack machine, though not dynamically scheduled. It's very difficult to write code by hand though.
ISPs can ban it on the consumer end.

Tired brain read this as "there's a great deal in a ruin of a nation." Close enough, I guess?
> I realize that’s splitting hairs, and I don’t think that Trump is so clever as to rely on such a level of plausible deniability

He might not be clever enough to come up with it, but not only does he still have staff, but Secretary of State Pompeo (after the election results were clear but earlier in the attempts to reverse them) actually said on November 10 in response to a question about the transition to the Biden Administration, “There will be a smooth transition to a second Trump administration.”
Similarly some (many?) thought Microsoft was a lost cause due to Ballmer (sales/business development background), but they seem to be doing okay under Nadella (engineering background). That said, only time will tell.
You should be tested for primary immune deficiency, based on the frequency of your colds alone. If you do have primary immunodeficiency, it is treatable with subcutaneous immunoglobulin, in most cases. Either way, it is treatable.

I am personally on subcutaneous immunoglobulin for two rare immune-mediated neurological diseases, and I have not had a cold in over 3 years, when I would get them a couple of times per year. It helps tremendously.

These are the 10 warning signs of primary immune deficiency in adults:

Adults

If you have two or more of these signs, speak to your doctor about a possible Primary Immunodeficiency.

1. Two or more new ear infections within 1 year

2. Two or more new sinus infections within 1 year, in the absence of allergy

3. One pneumonia per year for more than 1 year

4. Chronic diarrhea with weight loss

5. Recurrent viral infections (colds, herpes, warts, condyloma)

6. Recurrent need for intravenous antibiotics to clear infections

7. Recurrent, deep abscesses of the skin or internal organs

8. Persistent thrush or fungal infection on skin or elsewhere

9. Infection with normally harmless tuberculosis-like bacteria

10. A family history of Primary Immunodeficiency
The reason it doesn't work despite being syntactically correct is because the standard goes out of its way to declare that, despite appearances, buf still behaves as if declared as `char *buf`. Thus sizeof just evaluates to the size of a pointer.

I think the original intent of the variably modified parameter syntax was merely to support optimization--a compiler could hypothetically prefetch n elements. Whether or why they didn't care to consider the potential security and robustness benefits of making the semantics behave like automatic storage VLAs, I have no idea. But over the years I've seen multiple proposals to rehabilitate the semantics.

The First USB-C Hub Combined with Electronic Organizer
As a result of what happened last week, the Joint Chiefs of Staff felt they had to remind the troops of their oath to the Constitution this week. Sometimes people need a refresher.
Parler was, at the end of the day, a somewhat amateurish Twitter clone whose essential growth hack was that they decided to serve as a kind of ban evasion mechanism for Twitter. They had virtually no organic growth of their own, they worked by accepting the banned castoffs from another service and promising not to do any moderation.

And then we had a historical incident of political violence perpetrated by the same demographic. Move fast and break things indeed.

But "staying online" isn't the Parler goal. Matze wanted to run an internet giant, not keep a seedy right wing reactionary forum alive. I mean, 4chan and 8kun already fill that market.

He's just going to pack it up, keep his head down, and try not to get sued (or charged).
Yeah there's certainly some differences between countries, but in most of Europe it seems to me healthcare is directly or indirectly largely run by the government. Whereas in US (and also Switzerland, btw, has which US-like model but without most of downsides) it's privately run. This causes difference in incentives to doctors. In the latter systems, doctors are incentivized to spend more time on you, spare no expense, get you the best treatment possible, but it is not cheap. In the former, they are incentivized to do the bare minimum
> You still need to save for a pension in almost every European economy

Uh, no? Pensions are contribution based but that contribution comes from taxes on your salary. Far from me to say that the system is perfect but you basically just need to work.

Welfare is absolutely not contributory in Europe, it wouldn't make sense as those who need public welfare the most are those that can contribute less. Some countries like Austria have a healthcare system based on insurance, but employers are required to pay for it, students have it for free and unemployed as well.

The pipe operator, if you wish to use it, also has the benefit of enforcing consistency when writing functions where the primary data structure being acted on has to be the first argument.

There is, of course, still people asking for a way to specify the argument to pipe into, but I, for one, am very pleased this was never introduced (and there are no signs it ever will be).
That's very strange given that every cheapo ISP router I've had does that. How did you confirm that it doesn't?

Free VR Unity Workshop: Build a VR Bowling Game in Unity
Nice. I see that you did this invite/offer first time in 2017. What is the main reason no one took you on it? What is the result of ttc tagging since then?
That's running qemu which is unnecessary for cross compiling. I'm not seeing any advantage to building on native silicon rather than cross compiling on existing machines AMD64 machines. Even with the power usage of the AMD64 chips being higher, the faster compilation speed will likely net less overall energy used for the builds.

I fully understand wanting native silicon to do development on and to work on some architecture specific branch. It's easy to just recompile your working copy locally. The original poster was talking about "build machines". I'm not seeing the utility as "build machines", especially if they have far less power than AMD64 machines.
One of the things I find fascinating about lasers is their history is an excellent instructional tool for how science copes with things it doesn't understand.

When lasers were invented, we didn't know how they worked. A lot of laypersons don't even understand this as a concept. We knew how to build lasers, we knew they worked (what they did), but we didn't know the mechanism by which they did it. Their adoption as a part of our world came, for awhile, in tandem with our learning about how they function.

This has all sorts of fascinating implications for people who have never been exposed to it before. I think intuitively a lot of people think discovery and adoption goes understanding -> invention -> application, but sometimes it's invention -> application -> understanding. We, as humans, are capable of making use of things we don't fully understand the inner workings of, and we can even build our knowledge on top of what at first glance appears to be a base of ignorance.

I read a book awhile ago that described this approach thusly: Imagine there are aliens who visit earth who can't see objects with white/black patterns on them. Now imagine them at a soccer game: they can easily tell something organized is going on, that there seems to be some object of focus for the players, etc. You could go so far as to figure out many of the rules of the game, all without ever actually being able to see the ball. (the thought exercise is used in the book to also demonstrate the theoretical physics and the scientific method, and concludes with one of the aliens eventually saying, "Let's presume, for a moment, that there's a ball down there they're all chasing..." and trying to prove that hypothesis).

I don't see how it's worse than the ubiquitous data brokers built into our society like the private credit bureaus that charge you to access your own data which has a de facto green light from us and our government.

It would be inconsistent to punish this little app severely when we don't care about much more egregious violations. It's tragic that we're only able to care about small things that fit into our tiny laser beam of public outrage.
Do engineers in Europe get as much of their comp in stock as the do in Silicon Valley? My hypothesis on why salaries have gone up so high here is if you want to hire folks away from successful companies, that success means their stock grant is likely worth loads more than it was when they signed on, which you now have to match to compete.

If hypothetically every engineer at Apple hired in 2017 got $100k/yr (say $70k cash and $30k RSUs) but because the stock has 4x’d in that time, now they’re making $200k ($70k cash, $130k RSUs). To hire them away now you have to offer $200k as a starting package. And that’s for every single Apple employee with significant stock comp. There’s a critical mass of successful companies, so for google to hire from Airbnb, they have to pay that skyrocketing-comp premium. Airbnb has to do the same to hire from Uber. Uber has to do the same to hire from Facebook, and so on.

Stock based comp in an on-average-growing competitive environment means market comp goes up too.
Which of the mobs?
Just as a quick comment—the difference in compile times between Clang and GCC is fairly significant. I regularly see much shorter compile times on macOS development systems and after trying Clang on Linux, the gap narrows significantly.

My most recent experience was with building GCC for cross-compiling. I had been doing work on Linux and spun up a cloud VM instance to do the compiling there with tons of CPU. Later, I wanted a Mac build environment set up, and when I compiled GCC on macOS with Clang, it was much faster to build. I went back to my Linux system and tried compiling GCC using Clang there, and got the same result.

Clang is fast. Just saying.

Counter example: a C64 booted pretty much instantly back in 1983 ;)

You could load and start an entire game on that thing (albeit from a ROM cartridge) in less time than a 2000-era PC took to just POST :D

So PCs were a regression in performance in that regard compared to 1980s home computers and micros.
Correct. FB is far more dangerous than Parler ever was.
> Did Trump ever call on anyone to riot?

Did he explicitly say “Go riot!”, or “Go forth and <enumeration of elements of some crime>.” Probably not.

Did he say things which had the intent and effect of inciting riot and insurrection? I think the answer is pretty clearly yes.
Dropbox probably has the best client sync across platforms (no GDrive, icloud, or onedrive for linux yet) but I find their plans too much for me.

I was using their free plan and used for sync custom config and bash files between OSs and distros, I would love to buy one of their plans, but 2TB it's too much for me. After their 3 devices limitation, I lost trust of investing into their plans, I would hate to pay a company that makes a bait and switch of their main product.

Anyway after the bait and switch, I migrated to a self hosted solution with an old laptop and syncthing, and works great. But I miss some of the dropbox features, but not that much to pay for 90% of storage I will never use.

Yeah, selfhost it's more expensive than their plans, and I'm responsible for the reliability; but I have more control and better features, so not so bad so far.
I graduated with 2 bachelors degrees and a masters degree with no debt through scholarships and grants. I have saved nothing for my children’s education. If they want to attend college, it is on them to pay their way just as it was for me. I’ve told them that I will help a bit during their first year. My company matches my retirement savings up to 5%. I save nothing else for retirement. I should have millions of dollars in my retirement fund by the time I retire (I already have over a million). That plus social security should take take care of my retirement. I have a very comfortable job. I live about a 15 minute leisurely bike ride from campus. I work 20-30 hours a week. My company doesn’t track my hours and as long as I get me assignments done everyone is happy. I can take up to 6 weeks of vacation a year plus 10 more fixed holidays that everyone gets. My health benefits are frankly amazing and cheap. On top of all of that I receive a very healthy six figure salary. There are many hundreds of developers at my company that are similarly blessed. My point is that it is possible to receive a very good salary while still receiving many of the benefits you claim.
Ask HN: Where do you see Bitcoin in the next year? What about in five years?

I once tried web framework after web framework, anything I could find, for Erlang. Many were outdated and I could no longer get them running. I was not an Erlang pro, so perhaps they did still work, but no instructions on how to get them working.

Some offered documentation and I followed every single step, until something did not work any longer, like adding certificates. Simply could not make it accept the certificates I created using openpgp moments earlier and of course no documentation on what the certificates need to look like. I think that was Cowboy. The lack of beginner friendly documentation made me desparate. There must be one good and simply working web framework, I thought. I found a chat for N2O and entered that, asking questions and how to do something minimal with N2O, not a whole chat, which was the starting point of the framework, the only example it came with, which it already created, when you followed the tutorial or some steps I had found. I had seen interesting things in a video about it, particularly and how it handles / creates JS inside Erlang.

When asking for help and mentioning, that no other framework had worked and that I need more documentation, which there is a lack of, I was told to stop "trolling" and to "f* off" ... That was only one person (one contributor of the framework actually), but others did not offer any insight or help either. That was when I stopped looking into Erlang in my free time, trying to get a web project going. I simply gave up at that point.

Erlang itself is a great language. I often mention it as a language, where a lot of things are already there for a looong time. Concepts, which more and more languages now adopt for themselves and hype about. I have to agree with lack of beginner friendly documentation though, which is not "Look at the code!"
You seem to be confused on quite a few points. In case anyone else reads this comment chain, here are a few points to keep in mind.

>Bitcoin isn't legal tender and never will be. The primary reason is that the govt (and its in our best interests) needs to able to execute fiscal and monetary policy. No one wants uncontrollable inflation or deflation -- there's a reason why we use a fiat based money system today.

Outside of speculation, many use Bitcoin to escape the effects of fiscal and monetary policy that they don't agree with (e.g. 35% of all dollars that have ever existed, were printed this year).

>The IRS has classified BitCoin as a commodity. That means whenever you transact in bitcoin (if you do it legally) you have to record the fair market value of the coin in USD so you can report and pay capital gains or losses. It's not practical to use it as a currency for legal transactions.

The law is always slow to catch up with innovation. It's a commidity for now, which makes using it more burdensome than it needs to be, but this can change overnight if it was given the status of a currency.

>Businesses have no interest in a money system that are anonymous because they have to deal with potential audits from the IRS.

Bitcoin is the opposite of anonymous. I'm not sure why people still get this wrong after seeing Bitcoin in use for 11 years. It is a well tracked public ledger of value. Companies can more easily open their books to audits, and the IRS can also verify these books using publicly obtainable information.

>BitCoin similar to gold, except for the fact that gold has intrinsic value as a material input to manufacturing and it has to be acquired at market price.

Bitcoin is digital gold. Its intrinsic value stems from many aspects (in no particular order):

* ease of value transfer

* time of settlement (settlement between banks will take up to 90days)

* divisibility (a dollar only has two decimal points, while Bitcoin has 12 for now, but no real limit otherwise)

* a zero-trust consensus system

* and quite a few other properties. These are all intrinsic to Bitcoin. To claim that it has no value flies in the face of its pratical application for the last 11 years.

>Bitcoin is a system that requires current holders to encourage new people to come in and purchase Bitcoin because that's their only viable exit strategy.

Not sure why you feel this is true. Bitcoin would continue fine as-is with the current participants and activity. Perhaps the speculators would leave the system, but this is true of pretty much any speculative market activity and not the primary purpose of such a financial tool.
>In more recent years, Kolmoisoppi has moved on to fund Njalla, a privacy-centric domain name registration service. One he says was already asked to host Parler, and refused.

>“Of course we wouldn't,” Kolmisoppi said. “We're pro human rights, which includes the right to not be killed by extreme right wing terrorists.”

Why do I see this embarrassing justification so often? It doesn't make sense to equate speech with violence.
The majority of Facebook users are not trying to use it to undermine an election result or throw over a government. That's the difference.
Yes, e.g. here is a discussion that evolutionary adaptation to high altitude in Tibet may have happened in the last ~3000 years: https://evolution.berkeley.edu/evolibrary/news/101001_altitu....
That's true, but Apple & Google can remove or decide not to remove any app for any reason. I don't think their decision to remove parler and leave Facebook is really all that surprising. Parler could have avoided destruction by being web-first and self hosted. They should have recognized the hostile (unfair) environment they were operating in
Apple rejects games using Corona Game Engine
Oh..! Interesting, but I think there are very different outcomes with leaning on either (1) "earnest A or earnest B" vs (2) "bad C" (McDonalds Theory)...

The McDonalds Theory doesn't attempt to control or guide the decision. It maximally liberates others to shape it. It invites serendipity, from the POV of the prompter. It doesn't assume the poser of the question has any special knowledge or expertise with which they wish to shape the choice landscape.

But "A or B" can very easily (and perhaps unintentionally) guide and take control of the choice. Its usage can easily become a "dark pattern" that collapses the possibility space onto one of two known trajectories (from the perspective of the prompter).

If you WANT to take control, then "A or B" is great. But if you want to lazily invite collaborative ideas from the minds of others with the least effort or skill, then McDonalds Theory is much much better imho.

To show my cards, I've realized I air toward the latter in my community organizing and facilitation work. Frankly, I believe we're all more likely to learn more about the world through McDonalds Theory framing, instead of getting stuck in local minima of "only what we can imagine" as leaders/supporters :)

This stuff is all very relevant to facilitation practices! It's neat stuff to think through, so thanks for the opportunity to work through it out loud :)
