What you're looking at though in lisp is an unambiguous syntax tree.

It's what helps you find your way around in the forest, especially with editor support that can automagically apply operations to discrete chunks of your code.

That can include doing things like re-defining a function or value on the fly, which is one of the lovely things you can do in many lisps.
one look at the users comment history tells you they are probably perma-banned and occasionally get vouched by users - which you could have done instead of reposting the comment.
I really love the 3bp minus the last 100 pages. Even more troublesome than the disappointing ending to the book is CL's warm stance towards the CCP and it's authoritarianism. Of course it doesn't rest on me to decide for others to sacrifice their lives for principles, but given the text there's no way to interpret it but cynical self-preservation. If nothing else it ruins the book for me.

Does everyone else see a 404 page at the archive.org link? That's the same thing you get today when you try to access /index.cfm so I don't see how this is any evidence of Facebook using Coldfusion.
I still don't think this is a good idea, after having worked a lot with Golang and Rust doc, the documentation generated from comments is targeted to users of the library, not contributors.

(And Rust/Golang have the best documentation system out there of any language I have ever seen).

For example, documentation in Golang does not follow your file structure, it just pulls up any public API comment and displays it. It makes sense, why would I care about how these functionalities are implemented and architected as a user?

Second point: a system has different types of languages and ways to organize things, so it’s not always clear where to look for doc. Whereas a README is always obvious.
Of course Smaug does get referenced (in Fellowship, Frodo actually meets Glòin, i.e. Gimli's dad and one of Bilbo's fellow adventurers in The Hobbit). But still, it's fair to say that there are no actual dragons anywhere in LOTR.
Tar files are human readable - file names, sizes, mtime and so on are all in ASCII text numerals, immediately preceding each file's content.

Maybe not human writable, there are some \x00 bytes used for padding.
yea because is only the URL API base path. Take look agli API doc here https://github.com/davidesantangelo/dato.rss/wiki
The difference between private citizens violating administrative laws and government entities violating humanitarian laws of their own constitutions should be immediately obvious to you.
Regardless of whether one chooses to use ADRs or not, recording the factors that went into a major decision is a great practice which can help counter the tendency to use Resulting. That is, we have a tendency to judge whether or not a decision was sound based on the outcome, rather than all the factors and conditions that made up the decision at the time we were making it.
Your comment falls for the same trap the parent describes. London has loads of #2 style dance focused club nights which aren't usually particulary touristy (unless they're famous - eg ministry of sound, maybe fabric) and basically have no stag dos. Tickets tend to sell out weeks in advance, which limits the "get drunk and decide to go out" crowd. People tend to be there for the music - a specific genre or DJ usually. The pull is the organisers rather than the venue, so they sometimes move around.
I only mentioned Accra because it was the first mentioned in the post that I linked. Feel free to replace it with "Berlin" or "Chandigarh".
there would be no bodybuilding without steroids, at least not in the way it is commonly understood. The physical transformation the body undergoes by taking anabolic steroids at high doses is like night and day. Without steroids, all the physiques would appear flat or emaciated, without the 'wow' factor.

I don't see how your facts disagree with the assertion. The US manufactures more in terms of dollars, but in terms of volume of goods the US falls behind significantly.

These goods require efficient labour - that is, labour that is efficiently reproduced, and therefore cost-effective housing, healthcare, and so on, to be made effectively, as well as high-volume, low cost, logistics.

Because of this, the US cannot do the kind of manufacturing China can do systematically, whereas China simply needs better technology to be able to manufacture the very high value goods that are dominant in the US

This inevitably leads to a weakening of the US manufacturing sector assuming competitive markets.

Also, if you're taking into account goods that cannot be imported or exported for structural reasons and whose components are of negligible price, you should do some adjustment for purchasing power parity, as the exact same goods in another economy would be sold at a much lower price
That's a really good point. I've also done what you mentioned in your first paragraph but stopped digging deeper once I hit the "now I have to understand physics to actually understand why electricity behaves the way it does in order to flow through transistors/logic gates" barrier. My reasoning at the time was a combination of asking myself how much time I actually had to dive into that as well, plus how much of a potential return I thought I could get from having resolved those questions.
The distinction between sports and games is less well-defined than you seem to believe it is. Some sports trend towards a more pure physical competition form (running, cycling), others towards a game-like competition (soccer, football). It's not all raw physical ability, which generally shows up in purer athletic competitions like track and field, but also skill (wrestling being a combination of athleticism and skill).
Every once in a while I wonder how the SOCKS5 stuff works at the protocol level, I would like to be able to SSH out without running a proxy process locally, just talk to the ssh deamon on the relay server directly. The OpenSSH code is a bit dense but it looks like it creates dynamic tunnels that are torn down when the connection closes. Anyone confirm that is what happens behind the scenes?

The best advise about security you will ever get: Don't take security advise from software developers.

I cannot stress that enough.

I worked in the security domain from the military for about 10 years as an Army Reservist while simultaneously launching my career as a software developer in the corporate world. I have the rare experience of working in both worlds simultaneously yet separately. I have passed the Security+, CISSP, and CASP exams each on the first attempt without taking boot camps.

Taking security advise from software developers is like taking marriage advise from some guy at the bar who is looking for his fourth wife.
As well, I would say: the effects on social interactions
The article goes to great lengths to explain that. Tldr; competition look is not sustainable and also is not healthy. So they time it for competition.

Like with any other sport, peak performance is timed for competition and the rest is time for after.
You write an ahead of time compiler to machine code for your language. You write a program that is then compiled to native code. You do a bit of assembler glue to set up an execution environment that your language runtime needs. You link them together, do a bit more glue to turn the result into a bootable disk image. Done. You start out in kernel mode and will have to do a lot of work to bring online a conventional OS-like environment, but from that point on there's nothing really C-like required.
Yes, my point is that I don’t care about the performance impact. Positive or negative I’m prepared to eat it (whatever it is) to avoid ads.
For partially historic and partially current reasons, detailed satellite catalogs are considered militarily sensitive to some degree... not to a huge extent, but to such an extent that it's prevented the formation of an open, international coordinating system for satellites, keeping most of the coordination work done behind closed doors. The closest thing to an "official" international satellite catalog would probably be that maintained by USSTRATCOM but it's post-facto. UN Space Affairs facilitates coordination and has a catalog but it does not pretend to be complete and has only limited information.

A good source of downlink information is the FCC International Bureau records of satellite ground stations in the US.
Seeing as you are someone who is interested in constructive dialogue, I encourage you to read Capital, so you can form an even stronger dialogue about the pros and cons of modern capitalism.
Article 14 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states that "Everyone has the right to seek and to enjoy in other countries asylum from persecution."
More powerful in what sense? For corporations to be more powerful than a standing government there would need to be a bunch of private armies roaming around. Although mercenaries can be found it isn't on the scale where it could threaten a government.
From what I've read, the US got complacent and flew the same air routes at the same time daily, and in this case the pilot did a climb. The Serb battery commander studied the above and just waited until the right moment.

Basically, the compiler isn't smart enough to realize that the loop in the factorial function couldn't possibly execute more than a few iterations before returning. Basically, it tries to do this:

int a = 1;

int b = 2;

int c = 3;

int d = 4;

for (int i = 5; i < x; i += 4) {

a *= i;

b *= i + 1;

c *= i + 2;

d *= i + 3;

}

// handwave a bunch of crap about edge cases

return a * b * c * d;
I’m not vegetarian and it’s not about feeling superior.

I just happen to think fake meat and fake sweeteners are some of the most absurd things in modern society. I prefer food to be natural and unprocessed.
I did vouch, and I've been doing that a lot. But I look back after vouching and it's never resurrected.
> Americans depend on a safe, functional and resilient food system at least as much as they depend on their social media networks or ability to search the internet.

Shouldn't this say "far more" rather than "at least as much as." We simply don't need search engines and social networks. We do need food systems

South Africa Halts Use of AstraZeneca Vaccine
The page contains a "This content is currently unavailable" notice but the fact that it's been archived as index.cfm suggests there was once a Coldfusion page containing content. One complicating factor is that, although I don't know Coldfusion intimately, I understand index.cfm often operates the way index.php does in older PHP frameworks, ie. as the root of a query string for all the routes in the site.
Here is an example from my career: I once found a SQL injection at a large internet company (I won't say which one) that dumped user accounts including hashed passwords, email addresses, comment history, and a ton of even more sensitive data. The management of this company did the math and said the risk of someone maybe finding it vs the cost of the dev team missing a feature deadline made the vulnerability less important to fix. The sad part is that they were proved correct. The dev team finished the feature and then merged in my fix for the injection (it was a relatively large fix involving a large constructed SQL statement and I wrote it in my off hours because I couldn't just leave it). No one found the issue and the feature landed them new business. In the end they got what they wanted, the fix and the new business, because I gave up extra hours. That's when I decided that app development better suited me.
You're right of course. Unfortunately sports where the opinion of a judge figures strongly, like figure skating, suffer from inconsistent judging. You see this even in power lifting when a high squat gets white lighted. Power lifting could really benefit from some rule tweaks as well: being super flexible lets you crank the hell out of your back arch and minimize range of motion to comically small amounts at times [0].

From the top of my head using a hatch that folds up into an empty space seems like could reduce the radar signature significantly. I guess better yet a sliding door if avoiding empty space is paramount. I'm no expert but it just seems odd to expose several right angles when it seems it could be easily avoided?
Do they get to pick and choose where to flee?

This is way too broad to be useful
my apologies, i was confusing/misremembering mass shooting deaths, which are tiny, with gang/homicide gun deaths. indeed, refreshing myself on the stats indicates that homicides are about 1/3 of (american) gun deaths and suicides are ~2/3, while unintentional deaths are estimated at 1-7% (depending on year).

with that said, most people who own guns are still very unlikely to encounter gang violence (because most people with guns are not in a gang), and even less likely to defend themselves successfully with a gun when encountering gun violence of any sort. guns escalate injury and death rather than having a preventative effect. we really should stop glorifying guns as a culture (particularly for self-defense) and soberly understand them as the specialized and limited tools that they are.
In other words: not every slippery slope is a fallacy?
It is. The watershed publicity moment was in 2010, when the research paper came out.[0] It took another 6-7 years before the news percolated high enough in the political chain, and now both NIST and NCSC recommend against the outdated practices. And the infosec community had been arguing against the stupidity for what, 20+ years?

Now, there is a place for rotation - when the so called password is in reality a shared secret. (Eg. the secrets in payment gateways.) Such things need to be rotated, because the basic assumption is that they will be compromised. No matter what you do, someone will copy-paste a long-lived secret to the wrong place at some point.

In principle, you are right and this should at least be done in cooperation with African states. But it isn't about being a savior or missionary, it is about not being a bully.

Simply letting advanced industries compete with local farmers isn't going to work out. In Europe, twelve people can run six farms with hundreds of cows each. In Africa twelve people work with two cows. In addition, European farmers receive subsidies, so that they work with lower cost and can compete with Chinese factories.

I am not sure how much African politicians can do alone about such dynamics. And as the migration problem shows us, we have shared interests here.
> They've been saying that since 2018

Nonsense.

Tesla only announced an interest in a low end car at their "Mega super battery event". Even there it was without a timeline. My 4 years was a WAG. Prior to that, the Model 3 was their budget car.
Who said anything about 'morality'? The evidence of disaster of letting people with excess wealth make loans they don't suffer consequences for is everywhere. To be a reductionist and say 'risk management is just x, what's the problem?' is lazy.

Oh, and I was talking about the government, not banks. They caused the student loan crisis. It doesn't matter though, since my point is about any entity with excess wealth. I don't care about banks in particular.

There is so much gold in here. The human race would do well to explore how it's possible to turn hatred into love. It clearly happened here, and I've witnessed it on a smaller scale as a 16 year old in Vienna. As an immigrant, it was easy to find yourself in the wrong place at a wrong time. That finally happened one night, and the only thing that saved me was seeing a sign on one of the guys' jackets that belonged to a soccer club where I played in a young division (these guys were lifelong supporters, so my small achievement was enough to view me in a completely different light).

Deeply embedded in our evolutionary story is the urge to protect people you have something in common with (and I suppose this works the other way around as well). How easy would it be to hack this trait and increase the chances of world peace by consciously exploiting it on a global scale? Think of it as next-gen UN, but instead of focusing on top-down conflict resolution, we would work from the bottom up and search for things we're passionate about and can connect with people from across the world to collaborate on. Rule #1: teams should not be divided on a country by country basis.

I think the sibling comment to yours is a better explanation.
Debt (or more generally, an economy based on promises) is what carries essentially all of modern civilization.

Going back to silver and gold coins takes us back to Ancient Greece. It works, but it is very inefficient and very little gets done by comparison.

And even so, metal coins aren't actually the goods they're traded for, so you're still relying on a promise of sorts.

A gift economy would be the truly promise-free way of life. There's a reason we have very little knowledge of how those work: they don't produce much worth remembering for future generations.
Some may call it self preservation, I would consider it to be a good business move. It is also possible that he was pressured by his publisher to include the postscript to alleviate potential pressure from governmental stakeholders.

You can only reduce the window that the aircraft is vulnerable, or deploy some kind of countermeasure to provide additional cover.

Only in the worst kind of situation is it acceptable to lose an aircraft like this, especially when you have control of the airspace. In most cases, stealth aircraft should be detected so late that you can't mount an initial defense, or an effective counter attack while the aircraft is returning to base.
This is my main issue. The minimum wage in Greece, where I a from, is less than 10k/year, some people who I know (including me) donated to them a few years back in hopes of helping because they make themselves seem like they are in the brick of collapse every time they fund-raise, only to learn that they give huge wages to their higher ups and waste the donations on things irrelevant to Wikipedia.
What exactly does this incident have to do with counterintelligence? I think you are using that word incorrectly. I also don't understand what those linked incidents have in common. Sure, the US military isn't invulnerable and there is always risk associated with combat.
Around 1988 - (I was approx 8) me and some other children in my class were tasked with making a school paper. I remember that image being on the front cover - where there was a crudely drawn picture of a school wall, with some graffiti on it, (one of which was that image). I'd never seen it at school before (I don't think there was any graffiti at all at school) and I remember it really sticking in my mind. Not sure if it had the slogan written. I enjoyed sketching it on bits of paper for a while but it always had to be on a brick wall when I did it, to denote it was graffiti.
This is my exact experience also as a app security engineer and the reason I now longer work in that field. If you are good, then most of the time you are the boy who cried wolf or people forget you exist. If you are bad or learning and something happens you are the fall guy for everything. It's not a job that I'd jump back into unless I had a rock solid personal reference for a company that cared about security deeply.
It is very frustrating.

New York State funded an effort to scan, but not digitize historical newspapers, and while the microfilm is stored in the state archives, the online versions are hosted by an eccentric guy who digitizes the microfilm as a hobby.

I’m not a vegetarian, I don’t think it’s wrong to eat meat. I think animal welfare in meat plants is horrendous but I don’t have the slightest issue with eating game.

I’m not encouraging people to eat more meat, in fact I think people eat way more meat than is healthy or reasonable.

The thing I have against fake meat is that it’s fake. And of course that it’s ultra processed. I prefer authentic, natural things, especially food.
Yeah I get that point of view, "I'm here just following orders, no hard feelings". And that is part of what is weird to me in these stories from wars, that people are so malleable and empty and later talk big about respecting the other side. Well respect them and don't bomb/shoot missiles at them then. Also, the article sounds very artistic and fake, I'm not totally buying it.
Not only not every, but in fact “slippery slope” rarely is a fallacy.
