Not even just that, in CPG store managers typically have a lot of autonomy in what SKUs get carried, how many placements of each, what shelf locations, etc.

It's not easy for a small to mid-sized brand to try to get their product into stores when each physical brick and mortar store is a pitch in and of itself. So what ends up happening is brands partner with Agencies who specialize in building relationships with each of the store managers in a region and advocating for all of the brands in their portfolio.

I realize this is a step removed from Instacart and delivery services, but the whole industry tends to operate in a similar interpersonal/relationship-based way.
The governments role should be to ensure a level playing field between employers and labor. That means the government at a minimum needs to protect those who want to organize.
The trick is to make your projects tiny, not big. Instead of "build an all-encompassing system that does everything" you do "solve this very specific business problem". You could call these little projects sprints or something.
Doing what D does to detect references to expired stack frames would require some restructuring of C++'s semantics, which seems unlikely. For example, D can detect this error:

@safe:

int* f(int* p) { return p; }

int* g() { int i; return f(&i); }

Compile with:

dmd test -dip1000

and the result:

Error: reference to local variable i assigned to non-scope parameter p calling test.f
I agree but the companies also need to manage this risk by making sure people actually use their leave. If you have someone nearing the end of the year, appraisal time, with 6 weeks leave then you may have an issue
What's "current"? Journalism is a much worse business than it was 10 years ago and everyone working in it is less qualified as a result, so I think we need to be raising their revenue.

It shouldn't be. The US has the right idea with public domain, but that concept doesn't really exist anywhere else in the world and, for some reason, doesn't really exist for software at all.

You are very trustful. Those two are a big no-no. Dependencies should be curated.
“RMS is no longer a developer of GCC, the most recent commit I can find regards
SCO in 2003. Prior to that there were commits in 1997, but significantly less
than 1994 and earlier. GCC’s implementation language is now C++, which I
believe RMS neither uses nor likes. When was RMS’ most recent positive input to
the GCC project? Even if it was recent and significant, that doesn’t mean his
toxic behavior should be accepted.“
That is where the storage presumably comes from, you use the excess energy to pump water out of the hole. I think the whole thing would be just as geology dependant as the conventional arrangement but with the added expense of digging down 1000m.

I don’t see how this is particularly difficult. The ship doesn’t seem damaged, isn’t leaking dangerous materials, isn’t listing, doesn’t seem old and rusty, isn’t close to dangerous rocks, ships can easily get there, there’s plenty of room on shore for material, etc.

It’s ‘just’ the pressure of having millions watch and of wanting to solve it fast that complicates things. You don’t want to spend a month digging if a week suffices, but you also don’t want to spend a week and then break the ship if two weeks are needed.

You also want to think hard on what side of the ship you want your tugboats to be. If they’re on the wrong side, it’s a long trip to correct that.

I think there is definitely merit in these kinds of posts.

This developers measure of productivity is "how low level can I go" clearly; they declared zig was clear despite saying this:

> The lack of string handling routines in the stdlib was unexpected, to concatenate strings one has to do everything manually - allocate the buffer, put strings there. Or use formatter and an allocator to print both strings side by side and free the buffer afterwards.

This combined with "strings" being byte buffers like in C are not a good thing. I had a quick look and the author appears to be german; how do you handle an umlaut in zig?

His dismissal of C++ as "not having a build system" seems like considering the language without the ecosystem. Using cmake and llvm solves all of his gripes on C++.

Finally, this post measures the productivity of a single developer, On a 1-3 file project. How these projects work with 2-5 developers, or on projects that support more than the anglosphere are very important.

Another use case is finding words with a common ending. Can be used for finding similar inflections or rhymes (in which case you'd use some form of phonetic alphabet, which fits in normal ASCII, so the problem wouldn't arise there). I also once used it for a (very) quick&dirty spell correction algorithm, which had to run in less than 1s and had to read all data from CD-ROM.
Maybe you still want fine-grained control over code generation and memory allocation. But it's a valid question to ask.

The intermittent problem is the one that worries me the most.

As an engineer, if I think really long term, I would like to couple water storage with energy storage. I think water will itself need to be stored in a better manner. And I would store it in tunnels at different heights. And optimize that height difference for maximum potential energy.

The tunneling tech would advance faster when it serves both of these functions and things like Hyperloop.

Alan Kay? Alan Kay has had the worst to say about OOP as its known ("but there's a different good paradigm, which real-world OOP devs in C++/Java/etc might not use, but Alan Kay had in mind and Smalltalk offers" is not really a rebuttal").

>Though I don't really understand the question. Whether OO is good or not is a different question, and I'd posit the more important one.

And we can't divine the answer to that question.

But we can see what the luminaries have to say about it.

I'd rather follow the good examples/advice (of those that did major practical work in CS) that take some "objective" (how?) answer to the matter as gospel.
It is interesting to consider that the Mongol conquests in Asia, much like the Spanish conquests in America, were facilitated by a weapon they did not know they had.

This sounds like the issue railways had in UK 100 years ago. Solution was to nationalize the infrastructure. If the nation would own the wind-farms and nuclear plants, both can be managed to the benefit pf the nation.

If we privatize essential infrastructure it means -> yea the owner will want to have biggest profit possible and will not be flexible vs rest of the grid.

I've not seen such a design yet, but if you don't need that kind of bandwidth for your WAN link (and I guess you won't - but tell me otherwise, and I will certainly be a wee bit jealous ;)), you can always just attach a switch with 2.5Gbps port speed to one of the 1Gbps ports of such a box. (Just be careful what you buy if you need VLAN support for those ports/that segment). You probably won't need a six-port variant in that case, which makes cheaper and more compact designs an option.

As for 2.5Gbps Ethernet NICs with OpenWrt - I guess it depends on the particular component/NIC. People I know have had rather bad results with 2.5Gbps Realtek NICs on Windows, and I don't know if the Linux drivers fare any better. Unless you really need the additional bandwidth, I'm pretty certain that you will have the all-around better experience when sticking to 1Gbps hardware for now.

by whose definition? Let me explain the purpose of section 230 and it's right in the US Congress bill pre-amble(intro).

section 230 set's up liability protection for communication companies that accept user content IF THEY VOLUNTEER to moderate non private speech.

IE the public speech that occurs in what be called semi-private commons.

Tis is not censorship claimed by title baiting it's protection of the public commons from delving into a huge mess not-safe for anyone to speak into
Social media doesn't have a content problem, it has a design problem. Nobody would care about QAnon if it was just some random chat room somewhere with 100 members, but the problem is that Facebook basically endorses this type of content and puts it in front of your aging relatives' eyeballs.

Censoring specific content doesn't solve the design problem - social media will still be an engine for driving social divisions, aggressive behavior, and a general escalation of the level of alarm in society. All it will accomplish will be to give certain groups an ability to bias the direction the toxic impact on society tilts.

I think there are ways you could try to resolve the design problem, for instance:

1. Anti-trust regulation/interoperability requirements to make it harder for a few players to own so much of the online discourse.

2. Regulation on algorithmically generated content feeds, and the use of ML to drive engagement.

Censorship is bad, no one is doubting that, the majority of chinese people would agree with you (and loathing as before). See the strong backlash from banning yyetss https://www.reuters.com/article/china-video-piracy-idINKBN2A...

However it is like you said it's not so binary. I think there are differences between censoring posts and banning a whole commercial theme. No one is doubting the former but anyone who doesn't understand China would think it's a dystopia if they hear the latter (which is clearly not true in my opinion). It is actually quite logical that Winnie won't be banned because of the popularity and a universal ban is not practical.

I didn't call it "noise" to play down censorship but in relative terms it is still trivial comparing to other concerning issues which are smothered by the amplification of sensationalism (IMHO). Simply ask any chinese person would they care if keywords of winnie are censored, and in comparison if MS word is banned. Such titles are more eye-catching than say 'the subtle difference in the agenda of the chinese congress' e.g

My hope of removing the 'relative noise' is to reveal real issues that affect actual majority of the chinese population and what they really care about. Focusing on sensationalised news just leads to more meaningless us/them argument.

So sorry, there will be no warrantless mass-surveillance/KYC of NFT transactions that unmasks the parties to the transactions.

Partially this is because we have similar views on a lot of the challenges facing a move to renewables. I think sometimes this comes across as being sceptical of the progress of renewables.

In my case, and I suspect in yours, that's not really the case. In fact I'm excited and interested in how we will solve these problems in a variety of different ways.

I think we are in agreement that lithium isn't going to be the answer to energy storage at grid scale. If for no other reason than being in direct competition with the electrification of transportation isn't ideal.

It's an overreaction to a failed coup. The problem is the power itself, who can wield it or foresee the consequences?

Even for private stuff you're under dictation of a 3rd party that decides what you're allowed to say to whom and who eavesdrops. US was once famous how they valued free speech. Tempi passati.

I don't understand this argument at all. Unless you interpret the disclaimer as "you are not allowed to contract support from a third party", in which case you need to fire your legal department.

I suspect the argument usually comes in the form of FUD from consultants like the ones in charge of this project. But I wonder what makes it takes hold. Incompetent lawyers? Bureaucrats who like to play armchair lawyers? Or just outright corruption?
Do we though? There's a couple of government watchdogs that specifically track waste of taxpayer money, and sometimes underlying corruption. Those names (Slöso) are considered by both politicians and certain political leaning citizens as "right wing capitalist propaganda machines/special interest outlets".

I vividly remember how everyone shrugged of some small, local politician spending 50 Million SEK(5 Mil USD) on some project to "Cheer up the town square" ended up with 5 contractors, all friend of the local politician, that produced one 50 page report on how "dancing and talkin street lamps will cheer up the town square" was the final result. The politician denied to answer further question to reporters, insisting the project gave good insights, and no one gave a single crap
That the government is trying to expand censorship and remove things it doesn't like is something I expect, of course, even if the extent of it surprises and deeply appals me.
For me personally, however, it's the members of the cathedral, who are fomenting this wave of censorship and making it their mission to slander and de-platform things they don't like, who I deeply detest and think are the real villains here.
