Lets call it - almost successful landing.

Starship appeared to go down too fast and landed hard which may have caused fuel leak that lead to the explosion. Looks like the explosion started from a side, causing the rocket to twist along it's axis. Also, it seems to me that unburned fuel has been causing fires after engine shutoff since very first test that maybe causing some damage around the thrust puck.

Nonetheless, congratulations to SpaceX on great progress!
Yes, Strings are immutable, so they only calculate their hashCode once, then cache it. However, you need to explicitly intern them with String.intern() if you want to avoid multiple copies of the same String.
Coz Chinese people have been conditioned by a level censorship and media control unseen elsewhere, the resulting susceptibility to yummy and palatble disinformation is quite deep and prevalent, you may have read news about strong reaction about strange things from the west, you guessed it right there's alway legions of "self-media" behind it, it’s unfettered and state sanctioned algorithm-driven circlejerk machine, and the reason ByteDance's platforms make so much money.

Why do I need to point out it being "Chinese"? Coz these self-media platforms are the predominant way of getting information there, nobody but old people watch TVs and read newspapers, even stated-owned news orgs have to get on it to make money.

> 'WhatsApp cannot see your personal messages or hear your calls' vs 'WhatsApp does not keep logs of who everyone is messaging or calling'.

This is definitely suspicious because it is so awkward. You would never say that sentence in that way. It could have easily been "WhatsApp does not keep logs of who you are messaging or calling" and that would have flowed much better.

> Also, what about video calls?

They have stated earlier that video calls are end-to-end encrypted in a similar way to voice and chat.
SBCL 2.1.2 supports ARM64 (M1)
Ah, I think I have a maybe simpler way to describe my anger about this:

Consider the difference between these two reported pieces of information:

1. Senator McSenatorface has, anonymously via a shell company, accepted donations from Boeing in a quid pro quo to adjust the regulations to require less oversight.

2. Senator McSenatorface has, anonymously, booked three holiday tickets for himself and his family at the Isolated Mountain Lodge in Canada, where he will be out of phone contact for the coming four weeks.

Both are true information, that the person prefers to keep hidden, that some readers would find informative or useful, and both can be used to harm their interests. But I hope we are in agreement that one is valid and important journalism and the other is three inches away from incitement of violence. So by what criterion do we divide them? To me, the distinguishing factor is whether the information is more useful to moral or immoral action. In my opinion, revealing Scott's name is primarily of benefit to not just immoral action, but action that is near-universally acknowledged as immoral. If it has a redeeming moral justification, I don't see it.

Many times I've found myself wanting to write a function that I only need to use once. APIs for example, when they require a function argument. Or even just when making a "list comprehension", maybe I need more than a 1-liner lambda. I really miss this in Python.
Having said that, I won't use the implementation given in this post because it just looks overly complex.
Performance is one of the hardest things in programming. Separates the folks who deeply know the craft from those who don’t.

Is it possible buyers don’t value the ability to use a machine for 20 years at the cost it takes to make a machine that can be warrantied for 20 years?

There are multiple manufacturers of washers, surely they would have done the market research to know what will sell.

I recently purchased a washer and dryer from Costco for $1,600 with a 4 year warranty. There were no options for a longer warranty at Costco, but suppose a machine with a 20 year warranty costs $3k. I might still choose the 4 year warranty option and gamble on it lasting 10 years and then getting new ones when it breaks.

The longest warranty on a consumer washer, Speed Queen, is 5 years I think. Their commercial options are similar (for hotels), I didn’t see any 5+ year options last I checked. And their commercial versions are pretty repairable.

I’m guessing the economics just don’t line up where the washers and dryers are so cheap with a few years of warranty that it can’t offset labor costs and other costs of longer warranties. No one is stopping a company from coming in and offering a 20 year warranty washer dryer, except that consumers won’t buy it at the price it would have to sell at.

As for tackling pollution due to excess waste, I think the more efficient, easier, better way to tackle that is to increase taxes on fossil fuels and other sources of pollution. That will cause increases in prices of goods, which will force consumers to value longevity and repairability, which will then cause manufacturers to also value those aspects.

As an anarchist i don't believe in choosing our masters (elections) as a viable strategy for anything, really. People in power have only ever been compelled to do good by popular pressure.

But arguably a lot of people would support candidates/measures that introduced actual environmental/social regulations for products (driving prices upwards) if it were counter-balanced by a public program providing free repairs to all your utilities for decades. A such public program would certainly cost a lot less than repeated public funding of new technology.

Take cars for example. Most cars/trucks from the past century could be repaired given public support for that. That would be a strong ecological measure. However, governments around the world have invested billions of euros in "buy new cars" programs in the name of environment protection.. bringing even more ecological damage in the process.

For most products, the bulk of pollution and energy usage is related to production, not daily usage.

"Pfizer asked for additional indemnity from civil cases, meaning that the company would not be held liable [...] for its own acts of negligence, fraud or malice. This includes [...] if Pfizer sent the wrong vaccine or made errors during manufacturing."

The part in italics is the one I take offense at.
My stance: You start writing some piece of code and introduce e.g. a variable or a function. Then, half a minute later, you want to actually use it. You probably forgot which exact name you gave that thing. Instead of looking it up, try to come up with the name again (this time you're in the "user" perspective, not the "creator" one).

If you came up with the same name: Congratulations, you probably picked a good name!

If not: Think about how the two names you picked differ. What made you sway towards one or the other in the respective contexts? Is there some subtlety that you were not aware of earlier? Is the intention still the same? Maybe you even realize that what you wrote earlier doesn't fully do what you needed.

This also works on longer time scales and in reverse, of course. Occasionally I look at some older code I wrote and realize that, with a shifted frame of mind, I read/understand a function name the wrong way, even though it technically means the right thing too. Try to learn from these experiences as you make them and consider them when you're coming up with a name ("can this be misunderstood from the perspective of a user that is trying to do something that's only tangentially related?").
Facebook Ends Ban on Political Advertising
We saw what happens when employees are right leaning in the US. Their CEO gets kicked out and has his stock options stripped.

In the US if you have a non left leaning company that’s a bad thing because in the US the center is so far right that the majority of left leaning people look wildly right wing from a European perspective (which is where the right left view of politics comes from), and the majority of the people on the right are either delusional or scamming.

> Facebook will always have access to that business chat.

yes, this is similar to any other business chat system. This would then allow Facebook to provide chat logs to businesses, something that would otherwise require a third party addon (and consequently a large eula before the chat starts)

As with any other chat system, it requires users to trust the people hosting it.

Personally I think its safer to talk about account details in whatsapp compared to the dodgy popups that are hacked into people's websites....
This had me burst out laughing. Thanks for that perspective. I guess that's one way to solve the naming problem: just make all your names super obscure as a warning to any would-be students of the dark arts.
Well that's another topic. I'm strongly opposed to Bitcoin for many reasons (buyer's privacy is not one of those), but i don't place it on the same level: Bitcoin did not undergo any planned obsolescence (which was my initial point), it just did not take ecological matters into consideration at all.

Negligence is in my view not the same as hostility.

Also, Bitcoin is only a problem because our worldwide economic system is so fucked up noone can trust a government/bank with their money. We need to fix the actual problem (not the symptom), either by getting rid of money entirely, or by building a fair economic system.

It's not, and can't be. There's literally no implementation of DOM that can be fast. There's literally no conceivable implementation of the current Web that can do, for example, fast animation on a list of elements without horrible hacks (like cloning elements, taking them out of the layout, hiding the original elements and then animating the new elements).

Except the law does nothing to restrict social media companies and everything to restrict people on social media.

Someone upstream made a ridiculous comparison to Donald Trump, whose Twitter was shut down because he had just incited violence.

Well that was the extent of what was or could be done to him.

With this law, and the way the current Indian government acts, your Twitter shutting down would be the least of your worries. The government would send its goons in uniform to arrest you, probably illegally (the way the 20 year old activist was illegally arrested, then illegally transported to a different state by the police so she could be denied bail in a friendlier jurisdiction), denied bail for months at end, unless they are the lucky few whose bail application reaches a higher court, which hasn’t been as ridiculous as the lower courts yet, beaten up, have the internet cut off, etc.

The current Indian government deserves absolutely no benefit of doubt because they continue to enact anti democratic measures, while destroying the economy, even though they were lectured solely on promises of improving the economy (their destruction of the economy began well before the pandemic...Dec 2016 to be precise...just look at a GDP growth chart and it peaks in Dec 2016 and makes an abrupt turn going from increasing growth to decreasing growth right then. Anyone with a passing knowledge of India knows which disastrous, and completely politically motivated decision ruined the futures of hundreds of millions of people).
My argument is that roguelites are fundamentally using a psychological trick via RNG-gating content to make people play the game for a longer amount of time. That's built into the genre. And that this trick is the same as the one used by lootboxes. People have a problem with one and not with the other for very complicated reasons, but they're fundamentally the same, and thus it's a mistake to single out one and not the other.

The Problem of CryptoArt: The Impact of Energy Consumption
"I spent the past 15 years flying to festivals, galleries, events, art fairs to exhibit and distribute my work while building my art practice. Most of these projects are unsustainable, so when I decided to lower my impact and cut plane travel, I started looking at alternatives.

The CryptoArt market is a new way for artists to distribute digital works to collectors: often digital images and video files. The blockchain technology provides secure ownership, traceability, artist commission on second market sales and a thriving market place, with platforms emerging quickly: Nifty Gateway, SuperRare, MakersPlace.. It’s a vibrant and welcoming community, a place to discuss the works with collectors, and it brings a lot of benefits that the Art market fails to provide.

With no travel involved, and a mostly digital distribution, this new model looks like it has the potential to become a sustainable practice for artists. That’s until you understand the magnitude of the environmental impacts of the current blockchain: It is a DISASTER."
Myths about how the brain works
I bring it up because the majority of people who have a problem with mobile games do not have a problem with roguelites. Either you have a problem with both or with none. I'm firmly in the none camp, it seems like you're in the both camp. Either way, singling out mobile games like the text in Godot's documentation did is a mistake.

Lazy HN: Is emplace_back new? I was a C++ dev for over a decade and never came across it. But I got out of serious gamedev in 2014 or so (sadly).

(Is this what it feels like to become a dinosaur?)

There is some confusion on this issue: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4303513/push-back-vs-emp...

The function void emplace_back(Type&& _Val) provided by MSCV10 is non conforming and redundant, because as you noted it is strictly equivalent to push_back(Type&& _Val).

Looks like (as usual) MSVC's lackluster implementation drives real-world usage. Is there a rule of thumb?
Agreed on linked lists in Haskell if you’re doing forward iteration. You can have lazy byte strings under the bonnet while providing a ‘pure’ linked list interface. No worries about explicit iteration.
I doubt it is that hard to implement. They can set up some sort of key sharing between the mobile and desktop client. Then the desktop client becomes a full-fledged participant. Ask the user to hold the phone screen in front of the webcam and show a QR code with the private key.

They do have group video calls with e2e on mobile, no reason they can't do it on desktop/tablet.
Humans as a whole obviously has nothing to fear from small groups of mammoths roaming the Siberian tundra.

Small groups of people encountering said groups of mammoths in the wild, on the other hand, could quickly end up dead if a bull has a bad day and goes on a rampage.

I like the idea of fixing some of the damage our ancestors did. Especially given that it seems to have beneficial effects for the climate, and that giving the mammoths a new chance feels like the right thing to do.

Intentions alone don't make things end up like you originally intended, though. There's a LOT of things that need to be taken into account before such a beast can be released into the wild.

As someone who has done plenty of physical jobs over the years, I found the physical jobs much more satisfying. This is for someone who is not even in that great a shape.

Sure I was very tired afterwards, but at least it was a nice kind of tired. The mental tiredness/stress from coding is much worse in my opinion. If I could earn the same doing a physical job, I would probably switch now.

I do want to acknowledge that some of these physical jobs will destroy your body long term.

Re 1. (memory fragmentation): I'm sort of on board with this (although you probably make it worse for the next person if you use linked lists). But it'll be a very special case where the performance hit from working with a huge list will be acceptable.

Re 2. (threading): What happens when the list becomes empty? How do you keep track of the size to determine whether the list is empty? How do you know the size is still up-to-date when you go on to make a modification? I don't think this is as easy (even "in theory") as you make it sound.

Re 3. (merging overhead): You say "takes no extra memory", but you use significant extra memory already: You incur an additional two pointers of (and possibly per-allocation) overhead. For the entire lifetime of the list, not just when you do some operations.

If your elements are small, then your list might have double memory consumption the entire time instead of only when merging. And if they are large, you could store unique_ptrs to those elements in a vector. In which case the total memory overhead of merging two vectors (2 x total number of elements x pointer size) is exactly the same as a linked list has the entire time. And all the operations then turn into shuffling around pointers too, but probably fewer: You just have to move the unique_ptrs around, which is one pointer each instead of constantly unlinking and relinking lists.

Sure, sometimes iterator invalidation is a thing, and maybe keeping pointers to (separately allocated) elements doesn't cut it. But even then you wouldn't want to use a list if performance is even remotely a concern.
