That seems to be a different process, occurring at a different stage of expression - the link describes different ways eukaryotic mRNA can be spliced prior to translation; grandparent comment refers to a detail of how the translation process itself works with viral mRNA.

Specifically, that reference appears to be to one of apparently several mechanisms of non-canonical translation in viral RNA [1]:

> The focus is on the different translational strategies that RNA viruses employ for accessing multiple ORFs in mRNAs.

An "ORF", or "open reading frame", is a translatable sequence of bases, usually understood to begin immediately after a common "header" sequence at the start of an RNA strand. But viral genomes appear to have not even just one trick, but a whole bag of them, for getting host ribosomes to translate the same genome in multiple ways, as grandparent commenter describes. Which is really neat!

Also, it looks like I should've done some literature review before my own prior comment. Per [2], ribosome profiling - a technique which may be newer than my own experience in the field [3], and of which I was in any case unaware - has been used to show that eukaryotic RNAs likewise can and perhaps frequently do encode multiple ORFs which are routinely translated. Which is also really neat!

i love notepad2-mod: https://xhmikosr.github.io/notepad2-mod/
Querying is in pure JS, easy to do stuff programmatically. But if starting new, with a team that did not know Mongo well already, not a real advantage. I still prefer querying something nested in mongo to querying something nested in JSONB, but I can work with either.

And back when I started with it, JSONb did not exist. I would say JSONB was also a godsend though as our roadmaps now have a clear path to something we may prefer later. People up the chain are often terrified when they hear the word "mongo" so the existence of JSONB makes it easier to swap out your layer that handles database interactions.

But the speed advantage really lies in the early-stage prototype development. If I have to do it in postgres, the amount of code necessary up front, when inevitable schema changes happen, etc. makes mongo preferable until things settle down.

But again, it all depends on how well you know the thing up front. If you can anticipate a lot of iteration on the data model as you learn how people use your product, mongo is handy early. If I am given a spec for something where all of the things are known and foreseen, I am going with postgresql.

I assume that the hardest thing to do is making something people want to use. If I can achieve that with whatever I use, I have some good (and fun) problems on my hands. And it is all about structuring the work so that I am not tied to any database product. I am no longer working on startups with little-to-no funding, so right now I assume AWS or Azure will manage a database better than I can. And I assume new things are always coming.
I fully agree. I think it's a really interesting concept but it's missing a bit of game design skill so far.

I had the same experience when I tried it yesterday. There doesn't seem to be any good "starting point", like there is on a traditional crossword puzzle or sudoku.

I think from a game design perspective it is really interesting though: Like sudoku, this kind of puzzle gives you a wide range of options to archive different player experiences and difficulty levels: You can make easy levels by mostly using constant-width regexes and non-conditional letters and you can slowly increase the difficulty level by making regexes less constrained and more ambiguous. A designer could even craft specific "paths" through the puzzle by combining easy and hard regexes.

Finally, a designer could gradually introduce more complex regex features (or other patterns, like multiple constraints) over successive leves.
Batteries in a good number of modern laptops are inside the device. Not that easy to replace - I’ve found some that are harder to replace than memory, drives and keyboards. Plus that’s beside the point - my point is that in my experience screens don’t fail that often - replaceable or not.

Eh, with Arc you can share ownership easily, and there are probably a lot of cleverer concurrent data structures or entity component kinda things that'd just work too. But maybe you can arrange things so that one thread owns the scene but the other thread can still do useful work?

You are definitely right. The slightly, almost out-of-balance feeling is an integral part of the design. The white areas within letters are not of equal weight, and this creates the internal dynamism that I’m referring to. B is a good example. The lower mass of white is bigger than the upper one and this gives the feeling that is pushing upwards, while the upper mass of white is contrasting it. There is not a perfect equilibrium between the two areas, and this creates a tension that I was looking for.The overall stems construction holds in place the two forces.I still find the font utilitarian in its nature. It is quite easy to use, and flexible; I would define it as a workhorse, but with its personality. Its features become more relevant at bigger sizes, but they are toned down enough to work well at smaller sizes. I have to say that possibly the N is one of the more border-line cases, and I’m considering keeping the more traditional one as default, and use this as stylistic alternate. It’s been a while since I’m thinking about it, and some comments here confirm it might be a good idea.
Thanks for feedback, we are working hard for that
> I am not the best teach that can lay so much foundations.

To echo a point from my other comment, if there is so much in terms of foundations that is missing, do you think maybe you should be reconsidering whether this person is the right cofounder for you?
You are absolutely right but it gets even worse. The KYC bullshit is on the brink to spill over to non financial services, like messaging apps, hosting, email, and what not.
Not it’s not. UK has a lot of small islands colonized here and there and the US is an aggregate of colonies itself with its original inhabitants still robbed of most of their land.
Bangladesh? (160 mln actually)

I completely agree with the points made here, it matches my experience as a C coder who went all-in on Rust.

>"Clever" memory use is frowned upon in Rust. In C, anything goes. For example, in C I'd be tempted to reuse a buffer allocated for one purpose for another purpose later (a technique known as HEARTBLEED).

Ha!

>It's convenient to have fixed-size buffers for variable-size data (e.g. PATH_MAX) to avoid (re)allocation of growing buffers. Idiomatic Rust still gives a lot control over memory allocation, and can do basics like memory pools, combining multiple allocations into one, preallocating space, etc., but in general it steers users towards "boring" use or memory.

Since I write a lot of memory-constrained embedded code this actually annoyed me a bit with Rust, but then I discovered the smallvec crate: https://docs.rs/smallvec/1.5.0/smallvec/

Basically with it you can give your vectors a static (not on the heap) size, and it will automatically reallocate on the heap if it grows beyond that bound. It's the best of both world in my opinion: it lets you remove a whole lot of small useless allocs but you still have all the convenience and API of a normal Vec. It might also help slightly with performance by removing useless indirections.

Unfortunately this doesn't help with Strings since they're a distinct type. There is a smallstring crate which uses the same optimization technique but it hasn't been updated in 4 years so I haven't dared use it.
The breville toaster ovens work fairly well. If you have it set to "6" and toast some bread, and put more bread in immediately afterwards, it correctly reduces the toasting time, since it is already warm.
1. You are not a founder. A founder is there at the beginning...when the company is founded. You are a business partner. It's a very different dynamic. The business is a machine in your eyes and a child in your partner's.

2. Are you sure your partner actually wants the business the grow? Sounds to me like you are treating a lifestyle business like a corporation. You are swimming against the tide.

I would hire somebody else who can deliver in the way you expect them to and let your partner keep doing what he's doing at his pace. Build the business around him.

Or...you know...stop wasting your time trying to scale a lifestyle business.

If you stop paying, the only thing that happens is you lose the ability to use certain features (e.g. password protected public shares) - data / file access is all the same across plans. Also, since the files are actually all resident on systems you own/control, you have a second layer of assurance there.

We'll give some thought about how to support a perpetual license path - it may be sustainable given certain assumptions.

Thanks for the great perspectives...

Rust has the expressive power to design an API that explicitly makes it impossible if you so desire though. For instance by using an API similar to mutexes where you have to lock to access the contents.

There are a lot of great libraries for sure, but they aren't in the stdlib and C doesn't make it as easy to use external libraries as languages with modern tooling. Everybody gets grumpy about dependencies and a lot of people probably figure it's easier to maintain their own container code in their application than to deal with that.

I assume the two confounding factors are (a) the satellite should be moving relative to the ISS at the speed it was launched, so it is going to take a while to come back around and (b) when it does come back around, it should only be going as fast as you launched it, so it shouldn't be nearly as dangerous as the typical orbital collision.

[Huh, if the cubesats are launched at 90 mph from the ISS (the speed of a fastball), it only takes ~12 days for them to come back around; that's quite a bit faster than I would have guessed, but still probably long enough for orbital decay and ISS adjustments to put them out of line.]
If you can afford it, I recommend hiring people to help. Seeing a personal trainer just once a week has been life changing for me. I just have to show up. Just being accountable to someone else has been huge.
This looks really interesting, I really like the metadata idea. Readme could do with some more info about delivery guarantees, error handling, the query language, and overall a bit more information on how the routing works when multiple clients match or no client matches etc.

The protocol doc answers some of these questions I think but generally not the place to go.

I’m not a fan of the mongodb like query language being used as it gives too much freedom to the developer using singyeong, something thay might result in unintended consequences.

I’ll definitely give it a shot, might try hacking a go client together.

Thank you for building and sharing this with everyone!

One aspect of present-day counterculture that differentiates it from the past is the lack of focus on individualism. Individualism as culture has been sold back to us so often its relevance is necessarily less important now.
Which may be another reason why it is difficult to find.
It's also genuinely more scary than a loner in a leather jacket, in front of his car, selling rock and roll, hamburgers and Coke.
In the past it was easier because the the counterculture was easy to find - follow the well-worn path of individualism to the last corners of censored culture. Now that those paths are almost entirely explored, finding a different, more inspired counterculture is much more difficult.
If a big government seized control of a coin's development, it would surely lose most of its value and users would likely just create a fork which is not under that government's control.

I guess people mostly take source compatibility to mean that you can write the headers for your C library so that it can be used from C++. That's not the same thing as C being a proper subset of C++ or whatever, but it's still a vast enough advantage of C++ over most competitors that it might as well be.

It is not at all. That's like someone looking at perfect weather, blowing up an air mattress on the beach and wondering why anyone would need a house.

You are only on the 'fast path' when a single allocation of an array would have been much faster anyway. It isn't difficult to be 'fast' when accomplishing something trivial that would be even faster if done directly.

Why do you keeping saying the same thing while ignoring freeing memory, different lifetimes and wildly different sizes of allocations (which are why memory allocators actually exist)?

This idea that memory allocation is cheap is a blight on performance. Are you really allocating memory inside your hot loops and having it not show up when you profile?

Wow, I remember this remaster… I definitely had a feeling of the magic being gone in the CD-ROM version. I blamed the C-list voiceovers and overly lush production of the music… the old “sound blaster” score had this delicate and deliberate (what we would later call “chiptune”) sound, whereas the CD was just _wrong_. But yes, the graphics were inferior too.

I would have expected the EGA and soundblaster approach to work great for a cartoonish game like Monkey Island, but Loom was more like a Rankin-Bass or a gothic Disney movie (think Black Cauldron). Everything about the themes indicate that lush visual canvases and a live orchestra would be the way to go.

Doom: An irrational number that is finite and conditionally constant
I define “Doom” as an irrational number that is finite and conditionally constant.

An example of a Doom would be the number of variations of code that could be used with any computing language in existence that could produce the behavior of the game Doom including the game’s initial creation, but none prior.

Would such an irrational number be of practical use?
