Don't almost all chemical carcinogens basically raise the probability you will get cancer while the carcinogen is present in you, with higher concentrations raising the probability more? And so your cancer chances are roughly the integral over time of the concentration of the carcinogen within you?

For either of these vaccines even if some part of the delivery/packaging mechanism, such as the lipid enclosure, is carcinogenic, you are only getting a small amount and only getting two short exposures. It seems like that would make the cancer rate from them so low as to be almost impossible to detect.
Wrapping around the array, you just need for your position to be i%len

All the artifacts should be installed to the .Julia folder IIRC. At least I've never seen anything outside that. Seems quite easy to clean up.
A Review of Skeb.jp Artwork Commissioning Website
Yeah really well written and researched piece. This is the first I had heard of Newcomer, it might be worth subscribing to.
I did some contracting work a few years ago, and one of our clients was a small entertainment news site. They used cloudinary for image hosting and were paying some insane amount for image hosting. I think their cloudinary bill was $8000/month or something. The client didn't even know that was expensive. They just saw it as a cost of doing business, alongside their cloudflare bill and so on. (And what they were paying us.)

It took work over several weeks to convince them that that was a ripoff. I think their business people eventually called up cloudinary and negotiated a better rate, but by that point I was annoyed by the whole situation. The site used cloudinary's HTTP based API from the browser. I configured cloudflare to redirect any request hitting example.com/images/... to act as a caching proxy to cloudinary's actual servers. Unsurprisingly, that one configuration change made their cloudinary bill drop to about 1/20th what it was. When the client was billed we got a panicked phone call asking why it was so low, and if something was broken on their site.

Anyway, tldr; lots of folks out there have no idea what a service like cloudinary should cost. Apparently more than enough to make cloudinary a profitable business.
Libraries, documentation, tooling--all fixable and all being worked on. Without mega-corp support, of course, so it will take more time. But even today it's absolutely usable for many scenarios.

Multicore--Node, Ruby, Python etc. all seem to be doing fine without it. Nevertheless, it's coming with OCaml 5--this year.

Windows--support has gotten better over the last few years but still being worked on.

Hostility--don't know what to tell you about that one--it's not my everyday experience. Sounds like a one-off.

Syntax and style guidelines--they are the way they are for a reason (no pun intended), and after a while when you understand the reason for each quirk, it just falls into place.

Table stakes features--many other languages out there, but IMHO the really table stakes features are being able to actually model your domain properly in a language. Which IMHO very few languages outside of OCaml get right. E.g. here's someone trying to propose abstract data types for Go without much luck: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/43123

Tesla: Making Batteries
Care to elaborate? I am fairly familiar with the “story” in terms of packaging binary dependencies for Julia, but I am struggling to put my finger on the problem you describe.

BinDeps [1] which was the first stab at it was very much akin to what you describe in that it would attempt to build or install binary dependencies which would potentially affect the state of your system beyond Julia itself. While favoured by operating system package managers, it puts an enormous burden on package creators as you need to be aware of the state (also across versions) and inner working of each operating system, their package managers, and which dependencies that they pull in.

[1]: https://github.com/JuliaPackaging/BinDeps.jl

This lead to the current approach, BinaryBuilder [2], where binary dependencies are described, cross-compiled, and then distributed and managed in a read-only “story” by the latest iteration of the Julia package manager. While I admit that this comes with drawbacks such as security updates to dependencies falling upon the Julia package maintainers, it more than makes up for it in terms of usability and reproducibility for the end user.

Oh, I see :) thank you!
This type of bikeshedding behavior is a sign of technical immaturity. The more technical experience one gains, one usually becomes a lot more disinterested about small syntactic technical details of programming languages and more interested about larger abstract concepts (e.g. discussions on Monads, type theory, "everything is an expr" etc...)
It runs quite well in docker. I still feed my instance by hand but eventually need to write a firefox extension to push history semi-live.

Maybe that was only on the public side and he knew something was going to happen before it did, hence the speech. Maybe we have cause and effect backwards here.
My wife is Taiwanese and over time I've heard some anti-black racist stuff from some members of her family, almost all from older members of the family (people who are in their 70s and 80s). I'm not sure exactly where it comes from, though my instinct is to blame American media. I'm white myself, so this doesn't come up much with me. I mostly noticed it when some of her family visited us in the US.

I would expect much less of this from younger people, as Taiwan is probably the most socially progressive country in East Asia. That said, Taiwan is pretty homogeneous, so a foreigner of any color will be a rarity, and I suspect Africans are relatively uncommon among foreigners. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Taiwan#Foreign... for an actual demographic breakdown.

This is FUD. The worst case for GPL software is that you're not complying with the license and you're liable for statutory damages for copyright infringement. Not coincidentally that's also the worst case for every other license, including BSD/MIT, commercial proprietary licenses, and everything in between.

You're sadly right that many big enterprises purport to believe there's some special extra risk unique to the GPL, but you're wrong to say it's a "very real legal risk"; there's no reasonable basis for believing that at all.
I'd love to see this done with English text, since it's the only language I know.

If I had to take a stab, I would say 2008, but I could be wrong. I'd have to see if I could get into some "still closed to the public" places to ask for more specifics and go from there, because this was less than a minute of conversation over a decade back.

You're right in that it was once ubiquitous but it has grown steadily less so.

I could see GraalVM being a part of whatever replaces Docker.
I think we can at least agree that despite his double-speak, the fact that he has been stirring his crowd to act on the 'steal' is not inconsequential.

It seems unlikely that he would not have been briefed on the plots that were being organised and the dangers of feeding this crowd that rhetoric.

He has a large responsibility in inciting the level of denial that have led to his supporters to intimidate or threaten officials, many from his own party no less.
Allowing this to go for weeks without disavowing or distancing himself publicly has only embolden a crowd that believed in the legitimacy of their actions because the president would not say otherwise.

Maybe we can be generous and say that things got out of hand but that would only show some lack of responsible judgement on his part and I'm not sure it's not somehow even worse.
Has anyone done this with English text?
"That same year, John Carreyrou revealed that Theranos had "struggled with its blood testing technology." Theranos had mostly raised money outside of Silicon Valley. But some venture capitalists tied their reputations to defending the company anyway. Marc Andreessen, who tweeted prolifically at the time, appeared to develop an affinity for blocking people who tweeted negatively about Theranos."
Gamestop has a significant retail presence, Microsoft has none. It's quite tempting to just go to the local shopping center, pick up a system and a handful of games (with a decent return policy that's more reasonable than the one at big box stores) rather than ordering it online and waiting for it to arrive.
FWIW: Browsing through this, I was surprised by how many of these we read or that professors referred to during my undergrad years, twenty years ago. While it certainly wouldn’t be a complete CS curriculum, there’s plenty of good meat here.
This is wonderful news, but Graal is sadly behind the times there.

Android had AOT compilation of Java bytecode (well, technically Dalvik bytecode) since 2013. It was upgraded to hybrid AOT/JIT mode in 2016. All of it was open-sourced, unlike Graal, where many key optimizations (such as auto-vectorization) remained proprietary.

Unlike GraalVM's AOT mode, Android VM can run existing Java libraries without any code changes — you don't have to painstakingly look for static variables and mark them for late loading, and reflection just works.
I'm still impressed by the amount of crazy-impressive tooling the Java ecosystem has compared to other languages.

Authorship style identification in natural language has good intuition that one can work with. However, such notion in binary executive sounds totally nonsense. The only possibility that makes it work might originate from code reuse in a single organization, which is a classical feature to look into for malware detection.

A cutting torch for steel is really just an oxy-acetylene torch. Once the flame gets the steel hot enough, you cut back the acetylene, and the pure oxygen burns the steel away. It's a surprisingly effect method of cutting.

None, because digital storefronts are constructed in such a way as to deny the right of first sale. There's no reason this has to be the case; Steam for instance could just revoke your license, turn the game into a giftable copy like any other, and let it be listed on the marketplace.

(On the phone so forgive the possible typos)

I am not sure (1) is a very convincing argument. The subtraction of 1 internally is not necessarily gonna be there once the code gets compiled.

I will personally concede with you on (2), but it's still not very convincing considering that Fortran (a 1-index language) is still (arguably) the most popular language for linear algebra.

Personally, I feel "The Index Wars" are the same as the "Text Editor Wars": a matter for personal opinion.
`bash set -e`. Your examples don't work (if you have an answer please paste it in https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/3415 )

Set-PSBreakpoint -Command Write-Error -Action { break; }
cmd.exe /c "exit 1"
echo "if this->($LASTEXITCODE) is 1 I shouldn't be here"

Your stack trace code is wrong. What your code is doing is essentially saying throw an exception when you encounter an error. All I am asking is when exception hits the top, dump the stack trace.

$script:ErrorActionPreference = 'Stop'
function bar() {
throw "oops"
}
function foo() {
$a = 123
bar
}

foo

PS C:\tmp> .\a.ps1

Exception: C:\tmp\a.ps1:6:5
Line |
6 | throw "oops"
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~
| oops

I use `trap{$_.ScriptStackTrace; break}` but unfortunately I cannot hide this code into a helper script that I can dot source... because of scoping rules! Even though I am dot sourcing a file which I would think would load it into my current scope according to dot sourcing link you sent.

Why this is not the default behavior when leaking an exception and aborting I have no clue

enforcing things are arrays

yes you can wrap stuff in arrays, but that is making the callsite look ugly for a function definition problem. The solution "return ,$array" is just weird

Honestly I prefer the bash way of $yaml | yaml2json(.exe) | convert-fromjson. Easier to find cross platform converters which your example is not. Takes me like 5 seconds to write, however then I have to teach others to do it as well, I want it in the platform. Also why they are at it, add toml support as well.

for documentation

# .SYNOPSIS
# Why do I need to type .SYNOPSIS above here, and yes that extra line is too many
function foo(
# but here its just obviously a comment for a parameter
[string] $param=""
) {
$param
}

Also didn't mention this before I wish there was a version of powershell that was static checked like typescript for javascript.

You are right but the blunt truth is, no one—as is evident even here—wants to hear this bitter truth.

If you eliminate all kinds of friction that will prevent current and future customers from paying you, you’ll have a well oiled growth machine on your hands.

Instead of seeing this as a learning opportunity, some prefer to cry uncle. Only very well-run tech companies like Stripe [0] and others in its class understand this.

0: Stripe’s Patrick Collison correctly characterizes the issue of friction that plagues products that start out as B2D (business to developer) but grow into becoming a B2B:

“So many B2B companies end up with homepages for which the only CTAs are annoying variants of "read case study", "download whitepaper", and "request a call". All stock photography; no product imagery.
Stripe's growth thus far has been fueled by individual developers and founders signing up and growing with us to billions of revenue. As we scale, the "impatient developer" will remain the focus of our product development.
Over time, however, we've been increasingly finding that large organizations (like Zoom/Atlassian/Maersk) want to adopt Stripe -- Stripe now has a lot of functionality that they can't get elsewhere. So, we're very eager to continue to grow this side of our business with Mike.“

True. And most companies would decide it wasn't economical to run such a controversial site at scale.

But this is being painted as "monopolies against free speech", and it's not. There's hundreds, maybe thousands of hosting companies. At least dozens of ways to take payments. Thousands of law firms.

I think everyone is in agreement that big tech has too much influence. But big tech isn't what's keeping Parler off the web. It's not "leftists" either. It's legal liability for things like the capital riots.

Legal liability, aka the threat of government is what's keeping Parker offline. Not big tech. All the US companies are just falling in line, protecting themselves from lawsuits and expensive court cases
Yes! Thank you! I got it!
That wasn't something that they outright did, it just kind of happened.

I would also be _shocked_ if that team had any relation to the team doing their current ad work.
Not at all. It is based on the Web engine of the most used browser. Firefox is still Firefox, the big difference for me with the 2000s being the decline of its market share and that it doesn't compete with a browser with a non standard-compliant browser. Instead, it competes with a browser that defines the standards.

The biggest thing about index 0 or 1 is the inclusive and exclusive slicing. When the index is 0 and the slicing is [inclusive:exclusive], I find it a bit easier to write code with array manipulation.

I suppose gamestop would then take the position of trying to sell Xbox consoles instead of PlayStation. They can even offer discounts based on their future expected earnings from the digital purchases on the console.
Very impressive, good news for programming language research.

On the other hand, it seems to me that these efforts and its resources would be better used developing a Webasm JVM implementation. Or at least kick-start the project.

We are missing a major platform in the JVM ecosystem and nobody seems to care.

I was using data in the abstract.

AskHistorians is still a niche sub for history nerds, and is well run, like most of the niche subs. I don't disagree, reddit is my goto for niche topics.

But if you look at all major country subs, or major subs such as politics, news, world news, etc., all are badly run, with a hard bent to the left.

> It sounds a lot like your actual complaint here is that you don't like perceived persecution of your personal politics, and if moderation doesn't touch that then you have no problem with it at all.

Ah, how nice to toss baseless allegations at me. For one, I do stand aligned with most subs' political views. But I also stand for letting the other side state their views politely without demagoguery. I do not agree with subs brigading users who come from a different political shade, and have even taken the hammer from the mods for pointing out their hypocrisy in implementing the same. It doesn't take an idiot to see how neutral country subs have been taken over by a lot of far-left or far-right premium accounts, presumably paid for by party funds (I know a bunch of r/uk mods who are part of Momentum, the far-left branch within Labour, for instance). There isn't a place for centrist leaning folks on reddit anywhere on the main subs.

Not to mention the effective dictatorships that mods run, regardless of political leaning: you call out a mod for partiality and/or bias or bad behavior, instaban.
WeWork, Valient and many others should dispel any notion of market sanity. There’s an insane amount of hype to the point of it being difficulty sometimes to discern who the bullshitter is (especially since everyone, including the “successful” gamblers, is bullshitting to some degree since there’s a lot of negotiation).
I would not be impressed. After reading this, everything is possible:

Besides what other people have said, consider also that just because they’re asking about having an alarm doesn’t mean they actually care about whether there’s an alarm directly. It just means there’s some statistical correlation between alarm presence and risk.

It could be a case of “people who add aftermarket alarms are more likely to be conscientious about not leaving their vehicle where it’s likely to be broken into in the first place” or “people who go through the expense of adding aftermarket alarms tend to do so because if multiple prior break-ins, and may be doing something (e.g., leaving things in the car) that increase the risk”.
I don't know if it relies on C so much but what C is an abstraction over. An array in C is a set of data that exists in consecutive locations in memory. Memory addresses start at 0. Technically, a C array located at the start of addressable memory, by the nature of the way we've decided computers work in general, would start at 0. Plus as many extra zeros as your architecture can represent. This is generally the way computers are assumed to work.

Higher level general purpose programming languages exist primarily to serve as an abstraction over the fundamental architecture of computers. C is technically a higher level language than machine code and assembly code, both of which use the 'lowest address is zero' abstraction. Every other abstraction, including C exists over top of that.

My point is mostly, if you're trying to remain relatively close to abstracting over general computing keeping arrays and their index based on what they are fundamentally abstracting over makes sense.

In domain specific applications, it may make less sense.
They are not loosing money....
What is the magic behind Lisp anyways?

Is it that the Lisp language exposes the Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) of the code, so that you can reformulate it into your domain-specific macros, thereby helping you encapsulate complex logic into more succinct constructs?

Is this why they say that Lisp is fantastic for small groups of programmers, that share similar groupthink, and uses all the same macros, but it becomes a horrendous mess when multiple teams are involved.

There seems to be a trend last few years where many of even the most traditional CLIs are getting questioned by modern replacements that provide a richer experience without compromising on the old values of simplicity. For example ripgrep, bat or exa instead of grep, cat and ls.
