Less commonly with a pickup truck but plenty of people will refer to their SUV, especially if it's a crossover as most are these days, as their "car." I suppose a large car, in the strict sense of the word, these days would be something like a Lincoln Town Car.
Yes, i is neither rational nor irrational. I just edited to correct/remove that.

It’s possible that I cannot define an irrational number as an real number member in a sometimes unknown location within a result set of a function, where the size of the set being exactly one results in the possibility of the number being known exactly.

But it has a lot in common with irrational numbers, aside from it looking to meet the qualifications of being irrational.

If you assume total omniscience, then the result of the function would always result in a real, rational number, and that is the number I’m trying to define as irrational, because the answer as defined is always an integer, but depending on the values of the parameters to the function, which number it is would be unknown, and that cannot be defined as a fraction.
And if 28% population growth over 25 years results in insane housing affordability for younger generations, why are you still fine with that? I really don't understand this argument. You value total population growth and total economic growth over standard of living? Because with current trends it should be obscenely obvious that this approach isn't working.

Population growth (at a much lower more sustainable rate) can be incentivized by literally paying people more money to have Children. And did it occur to you that perhaps our low birthrate has something to do with the increasing lack of opportunity to improve in this country?

Finally, I am actually against the concept that the country must have constant population growth. Population growth comes in natural waves where some decades it will be high, and in others it will be low. The drop in birthrates many believe will cause a "sky to fall" scenario, which simply isn't true. It is parasitic to expect and demand constant population growth, especially at the cost of people's standard of living.
> It looks like the point of the limescale filter in the picture is for keeping the limescale IN the kettle, and preventing chunks of limescale from pouring out of the kettle and into your teacups.

That's the point, yes. You have tea with lime flakes otherwise.

As for filters I actually prefer the taste of hard water (and the tap water is good to drink where I live, just inconvenient).

As for kettles - most people where I live use the ones you put on your gas stove as electricity is more expansive.
> ... but it's hard to convert an established ecosystem with idiosyncratic nullability rules.

Dart has just done that, though admitedly, it did not have an ecosystem as large as C#'s.
The article talks way too high level and is written like a marketing people even the title sounds technical, for example:

"Rust enforces thread-safety of all code and data, even in 3rd party libraries, even if authors of that code didn't pay attention to thread safety. Everything either upholds specific thread-safety guarantees, or won't be allowed to be used across threads."
Yes, miners can turn off the bomb, but that requires that they coordinate and determine a schedule for the hardfork that turns off the bomb (you need a hardfork to turn it off).

This scenario is definitely possible, but it requires a little more work than "one guy keeps running an old eth1 node".
Ehhh, inheritance hiearchies are the well-worn grooves of OO, the paradigm encourages them even if it doesn't strictly require them. I don't buy this argument.

Typeclasses are a much better way to do polymorphism.
Lisp users pointers because of the realization that the entities in a computerized implementation of symbolic processing can be adequately represented by tiny index tokens that fit into machine registers, whose properties are implemented elsewhere, and these tokens can be whipped around inside the program very quickly.
Yes, that’s the most likely way to scale up electric car use. It would take 30 more years to get rid of gas cars.

Why do you think Tesla won’t have self driving cars in the next 5 years?
I'm not saying it will be an exact peg. I am saying that colored coins can represent specific batches of a real world asset. For example gold mined from a specific mine by a specific company from date x to date y. That company would also create the colored coins that represent a claim to the gold mined. They could even mint the coins ahead of time and they would act as futures on the output of the mine during that time.
> Don't trust Microsoft!

The fact that people might consider trusting ANY corporation is sad.
Some people are too young to remember. I recently worked with new grads in a startup, and for these 20-somethings Microsoft has always been somewhat cool, and Bill Gates has always been this benevolent old guy that cures diseases. They were very surprised where I shared the articles where they were saying literally LINUX IS CANCER.

With a mixture of time passing and billions of dollars, it looks like they've successfully "cleaned" their image :(
This story would make a great culture test! "Would you hire this candidate?"

You only want to work with team leads who agree with your answer, whatever that might be.

Personally, I love working with folks who enjoy playing with technology, so I'm a Hell Yes. I don't see a lot of risk that this candidate would actually try to ship that regex to production.
Ask who? When?
are these typos?

> you faild with your habbit.
This misunderstanding is because I'm old and when I grew up there were cars, pickup trucks, and Trucks. The language has mutated and I didn't notice.

SUVs in the US are out of hand, I totally agree with that. I thought you were saying that our Sedans are huge.
You could do this with an extension method, no inheritance required.
Modern Treasury (YC S18) is hiring a product manager to lead banks and payments
I think the point of the name Nephele (from Greek mythology) is that the candidate was sent to test the interviewer.

> Obviously the interviewer should have provided more direction on the expected solution and the candidate should have focused on the simplest solution not the most unusual.

The quote "The company does not need thinkers, they need doers. Mathematicians just examine made-up problems. But at this company, the engineers build real products for real people." from the interviewer suggests that the interviewer only wants to hire a devops person with a standard bag of tricks. The candidate has a bag of tricks in the relevant domain, but what a bag of tricks.

Loom is easy to find, you can get it on GOG, is on reduced price several times a year. And then use SCUMMVM and you can even play it on your phone.
Microsoft loves Linux in a very specific context—on servers, and as a development environment, in the latter case preferably running as a container or virtual machine inside of... well, you know.
Chrome was beating Firefox way before any bundling because it was just so much faster at browsing the web.

Please don't rewrite history with things that aren't true - Chrome was significantly better browser for a long time with significantly better developer tools which made tech people prefer it early.
Right, you can't please everyone, all of the time, you can only please some people, some of the time.

We can come up with pro and con examples for any set of ideas.

I remain of the mindset that monetary transactions within a community are a net negative, largely because I think human dignity should not be something you can purchase, sell or bargain for.

If we provide human dignity for every member and let money be something we use for nice-to-have items/services, that strikes me as a significant improvement.
Some problems:

a has a larger aperture than c, s, C, S, e, etc.

f, t have unusually sharp overhangs but that's the style you're going for. I am not a fan of IBM's Plex's sharp corners either because it ruins the texture of the font. Either make all corners tight or not. Their argument is "Machine + Humans" or "Tight corners + Soft curves" but your eyes don't give a shit about those things.

a's tail is too long

A, V have a massive opened corners (usually done for small size readability) but Z, X, Y's crotch doesn't. You need consistency here.

Double-story g is hard to justify in a font based on drafting templates and generally doesn't feel like it fits into this type of a typeface. However, its ok to take some liberty here.

Fitting needs work first. S's side bearings need to be cut down by a lot. o, c, e's fitting is much larger than it should be.

There is a lot of work to be done here. I am pretty grumpy generally so don't take this too seriously. Have fun and hope you're enjoying the process!
I believe in rehabilitation and forgiveness because bearing a grudge weighs on me, not on the begrudged party. There’s already too much negativity in the world for me to want to add more. Plus he’s in prison for cutting into the TLA drug monopoly more than for anything he actually did imo
I was just thinking the other day about how best to manage third party containers that write various logs, preventing them from filling up disk space over time and crashing. This is a perfect solution, assuming the third party container is good about telling you every volume it needs write access to, etc.
Q: Is there any kind of open market in moorings?

If a normal restaurant gets threatened with a big rent hike, they can close at one location and open up somewhere else.

Does that approach work if you're effectively renting your location from the Port Authority?
I used to think running sucked until I took up soccer, apparently the 2 hours a week every summer and winter (not that I played the whole time, I was overweight and out of shape, maybe 20-30 minutes total) plus practices caused my form to improve. Shinsplints disappeared, and as I lost weight my knee pain disappeared. It's not for everyone, but working on form can make it a much more tolerable exercise if not enjoyable.

Rowing requires you to focus on form as well. If you can get the form down (legs, hips, arms, reverse) the motion becomes very smooth and the pain that remains isn't pain, just soreness and discomfort from the effort. It's still damned exhausting, but it's a great cardio and full body workout. Back pain is still possible, I have sciatica and it's occasionally triggered/made worse by my rowing, but on days when I let my form slack or when I've upped the difficulty for myself (changed resistance, added time, added intensity). But the strengthening of core muscles has overall reduced the frequency of my sciatica problems. Like with lifting (which I need to get back into) it builds up a good bit of muscle and helps raise the base metabolic rate, though not as dramatically. I also don't think I've ever had a more significant improvement in my cardio endurance than when using rowing as a frequent/key part of my routine (other than swimming, but shoulder issues have forced me to avoid that as a regular exercise, I can go 1-2 times a week for moderate distance and pace with breaks, but not the 3+ times of continuous swimming for 30-45 minutes I used to do; take care of your shoulders people).

You didn't mention cycling, but it's another good exercise that's very unlikely to cause issues for most people. Also nice if you can find a good cycling route/trail near your home or office, or find a cycling group in your area. Riding as a pack can help with safety and discovering routes (this is my plan for the spring this year, once I get my bike tuned up, since I'm still new-ish to this area). Cost is an issue, but there are a lot of people that buy nice bikes that never get ridden and sell them a couple years later. Clean it, tune it, and you've got a great bike at a discount. Keep it clean and tuned and it'll last you years. A good indoor trainer isn't expensive (though not cheap either) and can turn it into a nice year piece of exercise equipment (if you live in an area where winter riding is untenable for you, or with frequent summer rains).
There are multiple occurances of that. They do that when they fail to identify the actual offender or they ban for a non-existent reason ("just to ban it"). If they find the actual offender, things differ and actual offender gets banned.
Let's see. A 2011 diesel sedan can go about 900km before refueling. There's maybe 2 charging stations within 50 km of my central European location. So, the best experience I can have with an electric car right now is to spend a 100k on a car that doesn't work unless I live next to the charging station, or takes a day to charge. Oh and the car that I already have is not designed by Californians, so there's no stupid shit like a trunk full of snow every time you open it.

I think I'll still go with the autism causing, dinosaur burning dumpster fire on wheels for now.

Why Does Anything Exist?
multiple inheritance.

c++ : both sides can bring state. has diamond issues.
Java : one side can bring state. other just signatures. too restrictive.

What you want is: both sides should be able to bring behaviour, but only side can bring state.

"Nephele was a nymph moulded out of clouds by Zeus in the shape of the goddess Hera."

/facepalm That's hilarious
The entire concept of "affordable" housing makes no sense when even people with average incomes struggle to afford a decent quality of life. The government acts like people who only make 50-60k or less are middle class, but they don't even make enough to rent without roommates right now. Charity prices for minimum wage workers should be the last thing on their mind.

The Canadian government is working as hard as they can to divide the country into owners who have homes that make more money than they do, and a permanent underclass of renters that can't possibly catch up with the price increases no matter how much of their money they save. Canada (or at least Southern Ontario and BC) is at a point where being born 5-10 years earlier is a bigger quality of life difference than the difference choosing to be a customer service worker or a lawyer.

Toronto homes were up 30% through 2020. They doubled in the 5 years before that. Being born 5 years earlier is the difference between renting with roommates forever, and being a home owning real estate millionaire. It's going to start creating really weird social dynamics soon.
The interviewer identified ego and arrogance very quickly, that’s why the interview ended in his mind early.

On a sufficiently relevant problem with reasonable difficulty and depth, I think these human elements would disappear as the problem set requires too much concentration.

The interviewer wanted to end it because the question he asked was ‘Are you too good for this?’, and the interviewer replied ‘Yes’.

Which oddly, is an honest answer. I feel sad, if the candidate did the fizzbuzz as asked, they wouldn’t stand out on any level compared to all the other people that did fizzbuzz as asked. God knows what the other evaluation criteria is. Clearly the resume and a background check is not enough, because they still fizzbuzzed her.
I often wonder without having a pickup truck and a car, how do Europeans haul heavy hardware stuff like MDF boards, 3x4 wood plank, steel pipes to their place.

When I was in US I drove to nearest big box store, loaded my pickup and drove to my place. Easy, unfortunately no other country I've found such convenience and this makes me wanna go back to US.
I'm fine with implementing another static Object-Oriented language, but please learn from some of the best non-static Object Oriented languages out there like Ruby and to a lesser extent Erlang/Elixir.

No thanks. I'll just keep my handmade websites to myself and let people find them by surfing.
This is a popular sentiment. However, there's Checked-C and Cyclone, and they have very little traction.

To make static analysis robust in C you need to start reliably tracking ownership and forbid type-erasing constructs. This typically means adding smart pointers, some kind of borrow checking or garbage collection, generics to replace void*, maybe tagged unions, and a new standard library that embraces these features.

It's going to bring most of Rust's complexity and require major code changes anyway, but you won't even get benefits of a newer language.
How often did you use commercial fonts in your client work? Almost every major foundry has had terms along similar lines for a long time. I've never seen one offer a completely unlimited licence for their fonts, other than for private commissions. Well, not openly and at a price they're willing to advertise in public, at least.
For parallelism, Modern tooling like TSAN can close the gap somewhat. If you are planning to introduce threads, not testing it with TSAN is silly at best.
Maybe. A competitor, however, can’t make people pay more for a kettle that’s insufficiently marginally better.

Considering these are multinational companies doing at least tens of millions in business every year, I presume they have the expertise to do obvious market research and come to the correct conclusions about what and how much people are willing to pay for, and that is reflected in the choices you see in the marketplace.

Canada is crazily underpopulated compared to the UK for example - which is about the geographic size of.. what, Ontario alone maybe, but has double the population of all of Canada.

So immigration is actively encouraged, which is perhaps unique among developed nations (depending only on our definition of 'actively encouraged' I suppose) which is probably 'correct' and could be massive for GDP, but.. shouldn't there also be deliberate attempts to build new cities? My outsider's limited perspective is that it seems to be mostly left to natural progress, which means.. immigrants gravitate towards Vancouver & Toronto, and everywhere that exists just gets slightly bigger and much more expensive.

Why isn't there massive intentional city building to go along with it?
That doesn't sound too high level to me. Maybe a small quibble is the definition of "thread safety," but a reasonable one would be, "no undefined behavior in the presence of simultaneous access." In other words, no data races. And that's absolutely true and consistent with Rust's definition of safety. Another small quibble might be that, "even if the authors of that code didn't pay attention to thread safety and didn't use 'unsafe'" would be more precise.

It's not marketing speak.
I try not to complain when proper competition causes improved behavior.

I’m a fan of “the new MS”. Do I trust them? Not any more than a massive company.

But do I love all the open source software they’re producing now? Yes! Do I pretend that it’s because MS has seen the light and become penitent? No!

But at least this time when MS turns its back on their users, we can fork .net, edge, and vscode and go on with our lives. MS can’t unmerge their contributions to the Linux kernel or other open source projects they’re selfishly contributing to.
I did wonder if you can create some type of laptop terminal KVM (keyboard video mouse) for a Mac Mini or small PC box.

This way, it becomes a sort of portable desktop/laptop hybrid.

Maybe someone can mill an exoframe box and sell it on Etsy, that allows you to plug in a monitor, keyboard, and the magic Apple trackpad for such an idea?
In the times of 50cc road races you could get 10hp out of it, at maybe 17.000 rpm :) No idea how fast these cars would go with such an engine, they are not made to go 150km/h :) The way you tune a 2-stroke is by polishing the ports of the cylinder to have an almost perfect airflow. In the Netherlands this happened a lot in the sixties and seventies to ride at illegal speeds with your moped, it was considered a craft. In the eighties people just bought a replacement cylinder to go at illegal speeds.

If I understand correctly, the audiophile review is claiming to recommend a network switch based on the difference of a few pico seconds of jitter!? Surely that is outside the range of human perceptibly right?

The main issue here is mixing up a statistically significant effect and that effect being significant. With a very high powered experiment you can detect very small effects but that doesn’t mean they have a significant effect on the outcome.

I really think the simple hearing test is best but should incorporate common tools of measurement science such as repeated tests and multiple, varied listeners. Audio “quality” is very subjective and can come down to preferences driven by culture, age, experiences, etc. Some sort of consensus rating over all reviewers should be done.

Edit: also the rule of 3s! Never measure twice, always 1 or 3 times, is particularly relevant to this article :)

Yes, it reads off the WAL then compresses the frames using LZ4 and then uploads to S3.

One in a small case, tied to a RasPi, it's an I/O buffer for the pi and has temp etc sensors, some switches, and a few display LED strings; the Pi has a little webserver and shows that data and mediates what the blinkies do in relation to switches etc. Couple years of accreted code and knotted wires and needs to be redone with an actual design.

When the weather warms enough I can use my hands again; I'm going to use one as the controller for a large dehydrator that will need several fan circuits, a heating element, vent open/close actions, as well as timers and a couple types of temp and humidity sensors.

Do the two serving in 3d printers count, even if the printers aren't currently operational and its someone else's design?

I've given away at least a dozen, with kits including a small breadboard and some LED's and so on, to kids as a "here make lights blink" set. Dunno if it did any good but I'll count it as a use.
