While completely unrelated to the new fuzz feature, one library I'd love to see added to the standard library is one for more standard units besides time, such as a distance library. It would be awesome to be able to do something like `foo := 100 * distance.Meters` which returns a distance.Distance type.

At the company I work at we do a lot of stuff with distances and time and with the time library it's a lot easy to have strong time typing throughout the codebase, but without a standard distance library, I've seen things in meters, kilometers, miles, etc.

With every new version they can introduce new unit libraries until there are ones for velocity, acceleration, area, volume, mass, temperature, etc. This would make golang a great option for many business uses and scientific uses.

The other thing golang should standardize in it's stdlib that is testing related is a clock libary like facebookgo/clock library for time control. It's already standard practice to have the rand library be injected with a seed so you can have determinism for tests. The same is need for controlling time for many use cases if you want determinism in tests involving time. Making this part of the stdlib and making it best practice to always dependency inject a clock instead of using a global like time.Now() would go a long way to improving more complex unit/integration testing where time is involved.

> What will the EU do?

They'll be gravely concerned. What did they do about the Karabah conflict? Not much. President Macron tried to talk them out of it when everybody else sat and watched helplessly, but it was already too late and Russia had to step in creating yet another Transnistria type of region. Germany has a conflict of interest in dealing with China because their economy depends on selling cars to the Chinese. And all of them already got their hands full with the pandemic. This is arguably the best time in the last 60 years for China to roll over Taiwan. The US will get involved, sure. Maybe Japan too but I'm not so sure about that now that Mr. Abe has resigned.
Executing a trade and then shouting from the rooftops to drive up the price is an age-old trick.

I believe the problem is that apple has stuck with LPDDR memory for performance (33% more memory bandwidth keeps integrated GPUs happy) and to hit power/efficiency targets (variable frequency).

Instead of a DIMM, LPDDR basically puts an entire DIMM on one chip soldered to the board (or package on the M1). LPDDR topologies tend to be limited in how many ranks of memory you can have, which limits the total capacity.

I think if Apple really wanted to mac a "HEDT SoC", they would switch to "quad channel" (256bit wide) memory, which along with the jump to LPDDR5 would let them sell 64GB/128GB machines. The only existing SoCs with wide memory controllers is the Tegra Xavier though.
munmap is often a remarkably slow operation, if your process is multi-threaded, because of TLB shootdowns; on each munmap, all the other threads get paused and their page map caches get trashed, each time.

It is usually much better to have multiple regular processes, instead of threads, that only share chosen mappings, if you want to use munmap. Or, you can terminate and join all your threads before you start munmapping.
You clearly aren't out to have a productive conversation. You have an axe to grind on this issue.

I'll take your bait though, see how hard you believe these falsehoods.

Yeah, Police in the US (in some states at least) are racist, now I don't mean individuals necessarily, though I'm sure some are, but institutional (dare I say systemic) racism exists in the system. Incarceration rates are a good correlative bit of evidence, arrest rates, court dismissals for whites at a higher rate than blacks... like take your pick. No evidence (or fact) supports your position at all. Happy for your to bring the data to prove me wrong here.

You can hide behind economics if you like and try to argue "poor people commit more crime" - but then how do you explain incarceration rates of blacks given there are more poor white people than poor black people in the US?

You haven't illustrated any point. Just that you have opinions, with little fact, and seem triggered by people referencing white male privilege.
Software support is less than 10 years so in 16 years you'd be very far behind on security patches.
Trump's unwillingness to roll over for the CCP might be the only thing about him that I supported, though even then he executed on it in about the most hamfisted ways possible. He just butted heads with Xi, and honestly, China has more raw economic momentum than we do, and I don't really think a sanctions-war is a winning strategy right now.

What Biden's doing is much smarter; he's patching up one of our biggest actual weaknesses which made the sanctions stalemate extra painful. It sounds like he's also prioritizing getting the rest of our allies in on it (instead of fracturing our ties with them), which is a great thing to be doing. In some ways I think Europe/Japan/Korea/Australia are going to decide which of us will be the next superpower. If we go all isolationist, and Europe gets cozy with China as a result, the contest is over.

Strategy and preparation are better than bluster and Twitter-insults.

For the moment, I just settle for the opposite bias: there are people who I want to read what I say, but I don't let them. Instead I just settle for a group that most of the time also feels that way.
I’ll say that it’s a lot easier to avoid contentious terms when they don’t affect you personally. For example, if you are a middle-class heterosexual white man living in the US, then it’s a low-stakes choice to avoid talking about patriarchy, institutional racism, heteronormativity, sexism, etc.

The terms are partly contentious due to their connotations but these are contentious topics to talk about in the first place. If you’re going to dance around the most obvious and natural term for a concept that you’re talking about, it ends up sounding suspicious.
> The exceptions to the first two on this list were already delivery pre-'gig jobs'

IME just about everything that wasn't awful when delivered was already being delivered decades before gig jobs existed. Indian and pizza work well with delivery but things like burgers or anything with a hot component and a salad component just become a soggy luke warm mess. A gourmet salad place is about the only exception I've come across.

The other big advantages of restaurants is that they get to "hide" the calories, if you make the same thing at home you're aware of everything that goes into it and half the time the restaurant version is only better because the amount of fat/sugar they put in things.

Since it's not happening to everyone (check the original twitter thread), I'm 100% sure it's third party apps writing in small 4kb chunks with O_DIRECT file opened, therefore creating write amplification effect where 4kb write becomes SSD block size write (for example 4mb), therefore one 4kb write per second, instead of being 0.3GB/day, becomes 345.6GB/day.
C++ of course can have better results because of constructors and templates, my code is for C and I honestly was sure, and for many years until yesterday, that this kind of sugar is basically impossible to achieve in C.

Power consumption is not the only thing going for e-ink. The major win for e-ink IMO is readability in direct sunlight. If it's a nice day outside I have to stay indoors (or at least in shade) in order to do work. The only reason is that I can't see my display well.

As noted, we already have e-ink phones that can do both colour and video[1], while there is some ghosting it's getting to the point of usable. Just need a big display to match it.

I know some closed source projects that suffered from that kind of getter. Sadly the coders complaining most about it also were the ones who committed the most crimes against common sense on it.
There's an existing inspection period of every 6,500 takeoffs and landings[1]. The expectation is that it would take sufficiently long for a detectable flaw to turn into a dangerous fracture that this would be sufficient to notice it. But, given this failure (and presumably also because of the 2018 one), that assumption appears to be untrue. Checking all of them now and comparing any discovered defects to the number of cycles since they were last checked should allow a recalibration of how frequent checks should be (or, if there's an indication that flaw propagation is significantly faster than anyone expected, potentially stronger measures)

[1] My understanding is that it's based on cycles rather than flight time because takeoff is the part of flying that puts the most stress on the blades - spending 10 hours in cruise isn't much worse than spending 2.
Griddy has an app that shows the price, and they were sending out email alerts at least, maybe more -- I am not a customer of theirs.

The price system could have actually led to a better outcome here. If all the electric customers in Texas knew about the huge price spike, and actionable information like "You have electric heat, so if you heat normally, it will cost you $3000/day", many would have turned down their thermostats to the absolute minimum tolerable level, some would have fired up generators, and some would have shut things down and stayed with someone else. If everyone had been faced with that choice, there probably would not have been a need for the blackouts at all, and the price would have come down to a high, but less outrageous level. As it was, the supply was constrained, and the demand was essentially inelastic, because people didn't have any real incentive to radically conserve, since they weren't paying the wholesale rates.

Now that said, I'm not sure this is really a good idea after all. There are so many things that I'm supposed to be optimizing these days, I just don't have the bandwidth to think about all of them. I really am not interested in planning when I do the laundry or set the thermostat based on what is happening with the electrical grid. I'd much rather just pay somewhat of a premium for the grid to be overprovisioned like it used to be and not have to worry about any of this crap.
And that’s all open source software. The benefits claimed by open source activists are overstated and illusory. You didn’t have control of your OSS software stack when it mattered.
Thanks! I tend to go a little overboard with prompts. I should tweak the base colors.

The number is the number of revisions. Helps me track how "old" different copies of the same repo is. The star next to it denotes changes (in this case the a.out)

The only other things this prompt does right now is show an error code if a command exits with one, and changes to "can't miss it" red when run as root. For me, this is a minimal prompt, I oscillate between a lot more detail, and something closer to a standard installation.

> "crook" [...] Better to just not say anything if you're only parroting buzzwords.

The buzzword of 2020/2021 appears to be "grifter" and its variations.

On topic with the article and related to this is the word "dogwhistle". (The funny thing is that "dogwhistle" can itself be a dogwhistle.) It doesn't get used as much in my experience as "grifter", though, which is so wantonly thrown about nowadays that it may as well have no meaning.

I avoid using both of these words. There are better ways to say it.

That's not what I meant. I meant tracking down is ok, but not public search. I think it is a privacy invasion, but famous/very noteworthy person have to bear with it (at least that's normally what society agreed about), but normal people at least shd be protected from that.

So in the end, yes you are changing the goalpost to more specific forms of harassment. Women are more likely to receive explicit photos of have harassment sexual in nature. Men are more likely to receive physical threats. If you're exclusively talking about sexual harassment online you'd have a point, but this was never stated.

> However, I've never had anyone persistently follow me around, even after I've taken explicit actions to evade them. The only people I know to which that has happened are women. That comports with the article I cited.

No, it does not. Men and women experience stalking at nearly equal rates. The difference was only 1% (6 vs 7%) in 2014 and 2% (6 vs 8%) in 2017. And men actually experience slightly more "sustained harassment" (7 vs 6% in '14, 8 vs 7% in '17). And a large disparity in physical threats (12% vs 8%). The only category of serious harassment where there's a large disparity between men and women is sexual harassment, 4% vs 6% in '14, 4% vs 8% in '17.

Even when we break down the type of harassment by severity, there isn't much of a gendered disparity.

> Kind of like saying "more people each year get paper cuts than die in car crashes, so we should prioritize paper cut protection over auto safety."

If you think a man receiving a threat of physical violence versus a woman receiving an unwanted dick-pic has the same level of disparity between a paper cut and a fatal car crash, then sure.

Ultimately I don't have that much stake in whether or not you choose to believe in anecdotes or data. Just know that when you tell people to "just ask women" be prepared to encounter people who have done so and gotten different answers than you. Just because you've encountered a stark disparity between your experience online and the women you've talked to doesn't mean everyone else's anecdotal experience is the same. For that reason empirical observations make a much better foundation for any claim - but sometimes they don't always comport with your personal experiences.
If you follow the original twitter thread - https://twitter.com/marcan42/status/1364409829788250113 - you'll find that it's not affecting all M1 macs, and affects many intel macs, therefore it's almost guaranteed to be third party app's behaviour (writing 4kb chunks with O_DIRECT will lead to SSD write amplification)

So I see that this comment and a few others make the point that a great number of people are too lazy/poor/busy to make the distinction between good food and ghost kitchen drivel. I think this is an interesting argument, but in food the cheap end of the spectrum is not some unclaimed territory. There are fast food chains and cheap eats galore. These fast food chains survive by franchising and rabid supply chain optimization. But just because something is cheap and easy does not make it a winner. To build an audience, ghost kitchens have to become trustworthy brands, which they can never do by definition.

In your comment on Amazon, I think the difference is that often times, the white label goods are actually pretty good. So while it’s not branded, the reputation is overall positive, and sometimes these goods come from the exact same factories as the branded goods. While some ghost kitchens are derived from real, high quality restaurants, most of the time it is a distressed business that needs to rebrand or a new entrant of questionable quality.
"Illegal immigrant" is quite plainly an anti-refugee phrase that was invented to criminalise people seeking refugee status. It's never been used otherwise.

"Undocumented immigrant" does technically describe a person's status but it's only used in relation to certain types of foreign visitor. Across the white English speaking world we'll almost universally use "undocumented immigrant" to refer to brown-skinned people, while we use "visa overstayers" to refer to white-skinned people.

Some guy from India comes to work for a cousin's business on a sponsored work visa and stays a week too long? Undocumented immigrant.

Some white woman from the UK comes to work for a major tech company and stays a few years too long? She just overstayed her visa.

Then to round of the discussions about words changing in meaning over time, remember when holding thumb and forefinger together in a circle was just "the game" and you'd do things to get your friends to look — at which point they'd lose "the game"? But these days, it's only a white power symbol, thanks to some anonymous idiot on 4chan.

It's a crazy world that changes so quickly. I can understand why some people want the world to stay just the same for a decade or two. But that can't be done. We have to adapt or die.
