Arguably you can download SDK Platform tools much the same on Windows/Mac.

How are you so sure the videos are at the top of Google results because they're artificially pushing YouTube and not just because that's where the relevant/popular videos are?

Actually I find Google video search is still the best place to find non-YouTube videos. Of course YouTube dominates if the content is there, but when it's not, Google is still great at returning relevant results on tons of other sites.

Linus Tech Tips is essentially the "Top Gear of Tech" - it's over the top, hammed up, but eminently watchable and there are plenty of nuggets of useful information.
Clearly the Revolution and the Party serve the workers, so by challenging them you are threatening the glorious future of the Worker. In exactly the same way, the modern left uses "tolerance" and disadvantaged classes as a weapon against people they don't like.

Political correctness has always been about strengthening your hold on power.
I think you're making exactly the same point.

It's not a model to follow because it was a way of working that fit their requirements at that point in time. Given a different company, project, team, ecosystem, etc, the decision may well be different.

Thus, you shouldn't follow their model unless you are identical in every way.

What you should follow is the way they arrived at a decision, not the decision itself.

> Android is a mess

Compare apples to apples - Samsung and their Android version are a mess. Most vendors do the same because they can and to differentiate themselves and earn extra money ( like having Facebook crap preinstalled). Android would have never worked if it weren't so open in the first place, and at least the workarounds are well documented and you can usually flash with LineageOS or something; it doesn't help your average Joe, but each manufacturer having their own custom OS with the same crap wouldn't have helped him either.
The threading aspect is one thing yes, but I think programmers forgetting or never realizing that these functions will magically behave differently for some of their users is a bigger problem.

I don't think having to pass a locale arguments would be that big of a problem - you could always have wrapper functions for the C locale, although they should be implemented directly for performance.

> What you want is for the locale stuff to be broken out into a complete separate library: a whole separate set of loc_* functions: loc_strtod, loc_printf, and so on.*

Yes, that would be ideal.

I’d argue that getting performance in a coupled unstructured mess (I’m not saying that’s what SO made) is going to be more difficult.

The title of this thread changed, didn’t it? Pretty sure it was the same as the article (“Everyone is beautiful and no one is horny”). I mean, insomnia had me reading it at 3am so I may be wrong but if so that’s a hilarious commentary on the state of things...

I wonder if there's a businessmodel for selling self-hosted video streaming solutions for this kind of content creators. Would be a fun product to build if nothing else.

Putting the "you" in YouTube
When seeing products like this, and people who find it useful, it strikes me how there are apparently many types of 'data users' in Python. This seems the polar opposite of what I would find useful with data. The point-and-click is very much what I'm trying to avoid.

Not questioning the need for this, rather being continually surprised how diverse the Python userspace is, even within a "field", like "data science".
The epilogue of the show makes it very clear that the three survived and at the time of broadcast two were still alive.

Also, I believe the Soviet authorities at the time may have incorrectly believed that a large explosion was possible - in that respect the show may be correctly repeating a mistake that was made at the time.
A tracker is a tracker. Doesn't matter if it is privacy friendly or not. If I can block it, you bet I will.
Incomprehensible scheiße code. I looked around and I like this one because it has "meta-level" definition of movements and liitle bit of strategy.

I think that the “we can go quicker by not testing” is a fallacy. If you do TDD right it will make you quicker, not slower in the short term. Not just the long term...
Hell yes they did, the Drogo sex scene would be hilariously uncomfortably outrageous if they even hinted at her being underage.

Game of Thrones was lauded for it's gritty shocking approach to sex and death, at least in the first couple seasons, but I don't think a TV show could ever touch the harshness of the world as described in books.
Perhaps the difference is important. Maybe not. Certainly the boundaries between "cinema" and "tv" are blurred with many people consuming most material via streaming. But maybe "series" can take more risk with the material than a "movie" just because the unit cost of a single "failure" can be amortized through the season if the the majority of episodes shine.
On a more positive note there are ways to get this done if you are really interested.

Learn a specific in demand skill set that will last a long time ex: Salesforce programing for SFCC is highly in demand and under supplied, if you pass the certifications you are going to get your start for sure no matter the age.

Find industry specific respected qualifications and get one to get started, once you are in the ecosystem you will be fine. If you want to go work at x startup that may be harder but you can get started in the enterprise space if you want.

Once you are out of the silicon valley bubble you will be just fine in the other major cities or in places that need it but are not attractive to the younger folks.

If its your dream go for it and avoid the problems by getting respected certs to get you started.
It's almost like we are blackmailed into doing the wrong things all the time (on different levels of "importance").

The fact is that this is a distinct feature of our society, we have to "earn our living" or be left behind.

Do we really want to keep such a negative incentive in place?
It isn't "arbitrary code." It is strictly less arbitrary and ad-hoc than Rust's macros. You can think of it more as a programmable type system, although that, too, is not very precise. As to maintenance of large codebases, it is far too early to tell, of course, but note that no low-level programming language has a great record on that front. I think it is because components in such languages are much more sensitive to the implementation details of others (i.e. all those languages have very low abstraction, i.e. the ability to hide and isolate internal implementation details), but low-level programmers know this comes with the territory, and is part of the price you pay for a high-level of control over low-level details.

Russian oil is quite a ways West, around Kazakhstan, and China's population density is to the East. The trip would be around 5000km, and take a week on good roads. Perhaps double or triple this depending on the season, and maybe with a "Russia" multiplier.

So multiply that 43,000 by 14 to 42, or more, and you're within a factor of ten of all (~16M according to Google) commercial trucks in the world, of which only some fraction are tanker trucks.
Let's assume for the sake of argument that the 600000 copies is accurate, the next question then becomes how many other books was it competing against? I mean if there was just this book and the bible for sale, that might explain it (obviously there was more competition, but not quite as much as there is today)

After that is answered we should probably also note that Paine was a celebrity of sorts at the time.
In backward Wallis, I've been receiving a single folded A3 page for at least 5 years. And since last year, I could even snapshot the substantiating documents with my mobile and attach them to my digital tax form if I wanted to.
For predictions, the Kalman Filter has it's drawbacks. They are clearly visible when you try to use it in conjunction with other algorithms based on state prediction such as Model Predictive Control. The main problem is that the KF does not have integral action.

One quick fix is to add a disturbance model to the KF, for example an integating disturbance. But then you have one more tuning parameter (the disturbance model). Which along the other KF tuning parameters increase complexity and becomes more difficult to implement and understand.

Personally, I have had more success with other types of filters, which have a similar structure as the KF, but include mechanisms for improved predictions, for example this one:

Any plans for supporting Linux? Half of our team (30 ppl) is Linux-based and I think it's often the case for software engineering teams.
The goal of SPID (the authentication system) is to let more citizens access to government services without going physically going to a place, and this goal is kinda working right now. During Covid, many italians asked for social welfare from their mobile phones, among other bonuses.

For how it is designed, there are a dozen companies that offer this service. The citizen can choose the one they trust more (there are some small differences between them; some require to pay a small fee; others require you to physically go to an office to be recognized; others offer you an app to login through a QR code...) BUT they are all required to implement industry-standard security. At one of my past jobs, many years ago, I had to implement this login system in a public portal. It was a mess (the technical specification was on a PDF written in bureocratic language) but shortly after a new team overtook the project and created a proper website with SDKs etc.
To this day, the only known attacks to SPID were Phishing attacks, that require the user to do some dumb action on their side.
Somewhere down the line, developers will start to realize that single applications running in the same server memory and CPU cache will run much faster than Micro services applications that makes api calls over the network.

Depending on your organization scale of course, but for many smaller shops, there is a significant performance overhead of going over the network.

Ie a Single binary running Rust/Go/Java/NodeJs vs distributed Microservices applications.
This believe got shattered when I learned Rust out of fun. Not only was the resulting code faster, it was is also incredible resistant against stupid changes. If you go in 6 months after and make a change where you forget a tiny little implementation detail, the thing fails, reminds you of that and once you fixed it, just works.

Coming from a dynamic programming language I thought Rust was going to be my "if it must be fast, and is allowed to take longer"-language, but instead it is my "if my life would depend on it I would choose this"-language.

> The fact that people think of it is a documentary despite that is also concerning.

That's why I don't like entertainment that stylizes itself as factual. For general audience, there are only two modes of understanding: either something is obviously fiction, or obviously reporting. There's no middle line.

From the shows that try to blend the two, you get things like people believing fictionalizations in HBO's Chernobyl and then becoming opinionated on nuclear energy; people learning history from docudramas; people thinking Top Gear is factual and not staged; people thinking all those performers on talent shows are actually doing these things for real...
Your English may not be fine.

"Feelgood" posts like this want to pretend that your English skills don't matter. Oh, but they probably do. We all should work on our English.

I frequently tell people who apologize for their English that their English is fine-- because that's usually the truth. It's good enough. But I also tell them they should continue working to improve it if they want to excel in the technical world.

And if someone is very hard to understand, I don't want it to be a surprise and mystery when people don't want to work with them. It's my duty to say that I'm struggling to understand. I also hope my co-workers will tell me when my polemical custom of hyper-terminologizing induces a palpitating thorax. [this post edited to remove typos!]
SK Hynix announces mass production of 18GB LPDDR5 mobile DRAM
The only "soviet" factor was, IMHO, the reactor design and the fact that the behaviour during shut down was kept secret. All other decisions can happen exactly like that in any other environment. Upper management ignoring risks for promotion? Yep. Bad risk management and safety culture? Check. Ignoring procedure to meet deadlines? Check. That emphasis on the "soviet" angle is the one criticism I have against the HBO series. Small things like getting the evacuation of Pripyat wrong (they evacuated before the west knew what happened, not after), and especially during the final episode which completely ignored the international reaction, or non-reaction. Also the over dramatic death toll, nobody knows how many people died because nobody wanted to know, not the Soviets nor the West.
I mean that in low-level languages the name of the game is how to work with low-level details, and Zig's design makes it exceptionally pleasant as it uses the same language for those details as it does for the logic. There is no magic here, just very clever and careful design.
The puzzle of Europe
Nope, in France Bouygues Telecom required only a 10euro payment ( cash accepted too) to issue a new SIM card, which wasn't even in my name.
I really hate this concept of preinstalling apps on the phone that cannot be uninstalled/disabled. Especially crap apps like Facebook and Instagram. Why o why I cannot remove Facebook or Instagram when I don't even use it anymore.

And this is even worse with brands like Oppo. They have good hardware but so much crap wasting battery and cpu running on by default which cannot be disabled or uninstalled.

I was able to disable/uninstall with adb a lot of it but with every "Security update" it gets right back on the phone and then I have to do it all over again (SOs phone). Also it's getting more and more restrictive and even adb fails on half of these apps like Game center, etc nowadays :/
> This article is BS

Not completely BS for me. I have actually learned something:

> The size of a mosquito can vary from 1 mm to 5 mm, this is the main criterion for the method of detection and retrieval of mosquito coordinates. When monitoring the position of the mosquito with ultrasound, it is necessary to use several sensors in different places and processing their information to calculate the location, which theoretically is suitable only for detecting one mosquito, but if there are several mosquitoes, the device will not work correctly. The temperature of the body of a mosquito due to its cold blood is like the temperature of the environment. With a very high resolution of the thermal imager, the mosquito temperature will differ insignificantly against the background - on the order of 0.1 C. The use of sonar has several difficulties when working in open areas where it is necessary to use sonar with a narrow beam and a narrow radiation pattern.

tl;dr, ultrasonic/infra-red/sonar don't work either.
I'll add to that that you do need to have a relatively low body-fat percentage to look much fitter. Relatively as compared to the majority of the population, but higher than most fitness models, of course.

I've been lifting weights for a few years, but losing a bunch of weight gave me a far better look, including looking more muscular.
3rd party browser on iOS with web notifications (like android) would translate into a huge profit loss in app sales.
>Why does that matter at all?

Because we cannot move forward as a society, together, if we are not willing to confront and make effort to repair the wrongs of our past.

>Shall we treat individuals on the basis of generalizations?

No, but public policy usually requires some generalizations.

>Shall we use identity groups and biased historical lenses in order to justify specific narratives?

No, we should use actual, factual history and follow a correct narrative and we can use identity groups where necessary and justified and in keeping with actual historical fact.

I am not a heavy user, I charge it maybe once/twice a week. I personally don't find battery life something you should worry about on these devices to be honest (unless you go to forests regularly). I do have a kindle, I guess if I am going on a trip, I will bring kindle. It is cheaper and waterproof.

The reason I bought Nova 3 is that there are so many things I want to read in browser, and also I have scribd subscription I thought I could use :) I only use it at home and in office.

They live in an Apple world / ecosystem. Which means they will need the best they can get. If their workflow has strategic advantage or a need for CUDA, they should not be on the Mac platform in the first place.

You can switch a Camera brand without much issue, switching OS platform and software is going to be an order of magnitude more expensive.

Now that Apple will be using their own silicon, I wonder how those Pro Tools market will react.
> I'm 6' and I've weighted 135-145 pounds for my entire adult life and I'm 50+. Being a guy, I never restricted my calorie intake. I'd expect there are women with a similar metabolism.

I don't think you're contradicting the article. You're simply "naturally" eating a low enough amount of calories to keep the same weight, relative to how many calories you expend in exercise/regular life.

At the end of the day, if you were eating more than maintenance calories for your metabolism, over time, you'd be gaining weight.

Climate change was behind the decline of previous civilizations, are we capable?
Climate Change, Nature's Wrath can be seen as a direct or indirect factor for the decline of civilizations, and it seems like we too are moving to a climate change phase, considering the irregular and unprecedented climate conditions.. How capable are we to face this.
I'm not an expert, a honest question to know about facts and your opinion.
No mention of the previous Google Pay fuck-up, which graced us with two apps: "Google Pay" and "Google Pay Send."

I still haven't figured that one out, and I'm not going to bother with whatever the hell this is.
It has the feel of being machine translated. A short time ago I saw an example of three different verbs in one language being translated into the same verb in English ... I'll see if I can find it. I suspect in the author's first language the first "devices" was something specific that got a generic label in English.
I must admit I was just thinking out loud, not bothered by any relevant knowledge.

Thank you for your thoughtful explanation.
I mean I don't disagree with you on principle, but you're almost asking to remove money altogether or any important limited resource.

That's what ultimately makes our society turn. If we could get to a true StarTrek replicator, then I think we're off to a good start!
My hope is that the same realization will eventually come to web developers as well. A well written desktop application is much faster, and typically more stable, than a web app that's hosted ... well who can tell where. This isn't to say that web applications don't offer tremendous value, but it is definitely a trade-off worth considering sometimes.
Utility from Microsoft to check what autoruns (Windows 10)
Google Pay was a great way to send money to my kid in college. Since we both had debit cards, it was instantaneous and free. It was easy to use from the web interface. Now they're doing away with the web interface. They don't say why, so the reason has to be pretty shady.

There was some bad UI with the web. It would pop up a window to warn you to only send money to people you know, but it was a window you couldn't move to see who you were sending money to, in case you clicked the wrong person!

But that's better than the experience I had with the app when I paid at a McDonald's recently. I was expecting a screen which said something like "You are about to pay $9.72 to McDonald's Corporation. CONTINUE/Cancel.

Instead, when I put my thumb on my phone's fingerprint sensor, here's the feedback I got: (vibrate)

No information on who I was about to pay or how much I was about to pay. And afterward, absolutely no information about who I just paid or how much I paid them.

I went into the payment history screen and they payment wasn't there either, although it showed up about a minute later.

How is that acceptable?

I would NEVER use the app unless I lost my wallet!

Using the Google Pay app at a point of sale was a terrifying experience.
