Even saying "it's entirely possible" admits the possibility of the alternative. i.e. that a 300 IQ person could invent a way to improve IQs. That seems especially likely if the 300 IQ person came about as a result of efforts led by 100 IQ people. Seems even more plausible to think about like "Could a really smart thing invent computers that are faster/better?"
Here's a list of resources I've used: https://kernel.sh/wiki/rust-learning-resources/
The difficulty is always balancing accessibility to beautiful areas for people who don't have the wherewithal to hike for 2 days in rough terrain, with preserving the wilderness aspect for those who can.

I've found the biggest issue in preserving wilderness is helicopters and planes - they can easily cover large amounts of terrain in short time in a very noisy and intrusive manner.

In NZ, we try to a) ensure the 'front country' has facilities for easy access by day trippers and that b) the 'back country' is not disturbed by commercial operations.

In some parts, the balance tips further in one direction than the other - as an example, while walking the Milford Track[1], hardly a backcountry experience due to the very well developed tracks and facilities to cope with huge numbers of visitors, I still found the very frequent overflights by tourist charters detracted from the overall experience.

It was still gorgeous, but the continual drone of tourist flights for people who didn't want to, or couldn't walk the track, detracted significantly.

In my usual stomping ground national park, no commercial flights or landings are allowed, you can't even lead a guided walk. You still get the occasional private pilot flying through, and of course can't really do anything about the airliners flying to Australia, but the frequency is far lower than you find in the more commercialised areas like Fiordland or Aoraki Mt Cook.

The Department of Conservation has a policy of focusing commercial activity in areas tourists want to be in anyway, so that the rest of the conservation estate is largely preserved for NZ citizens undertaking recreational activities.

Luca is a cash grab, and maybe more sinister. Since the CWA - the official contact tracing app - switched to not collecting a central database that could be misused we have conservative politicians firing against it. "We give too much importance to data privacy", of course without being able to mention a single feature that the privacy protecting app is missing. Now Luca arrived, with some semi-prominent advocates, and you see conservative politicians shoving millions into that abomination of proprietary, data collecting and now evidently copyright infringing garbage.

It is as if a certain political class had this dream scenario of a new location registry of every move of the population. That they did not get via the CWA app, and since then they attack it. But Luca could create it.

Don't forget: This is Germany. Very low corruption at the lower level of society (you will never see a bribe in everyday life) and the basic organisation of the country seems competent. Incredible high amount of corruption and incompetence in the higher spheres - Wirecard, Cum Ex, Kohls schwarze Kassen, the governing party (CDU) currently has a scandal about members gaining millions via corruption when organising FFP2 masks, the country completely failed to contain Covid after the first more or less successful lockdown. Luca fits right in.
You save typing by not having to repeat the class name.
Yeah, it's certainly a joke. Also it's the one single review of that item. Why would you bot a single review of an item?
My dentist friend claims he makes far more money per hour from cleanings than from fillings. This is because most of a cleaning is done by a relatively lowly paid hygienist but still requires him popping in for 5 minutes and a filling requires him to be there the whole time.

>On an unstable aircraft such as the 737 Max, if the trim fails then the nose pitches-up, precipitating a stall, unless the pilot can execute a manual trim.

Please educate yourself on the fundamentals. The 737 MAX is not unstable.
As someone from not America, hahaha.
WTF? how is this comment downvoted

EDIT: Oh got it... surprise surprise guess which company's tech team is hitting refresh every five seconds on this page
MCAS moves the trim wheel itself, so you don't overcome it with trim, you overcome it with your control column. Also, MCAS moves the trim to an extreme position that is nowhere close to how the plane should be trimmed for normal flight. But the pilots were still able to overcome it with their control columns for quite a long time. A situation like that is usually called a "trim runaway" and it can happen for multiple reasons, MCAS being a rather exotic one, but they all have the same solution, a procedure that the pilots unfortunately weren't able to follow.

The other way the trim can fail is that it gets stuck. When that happens, it usually gets stuck in a reasonable position (because the plane was flying normally before it happened), which makes the flight back annoying and renders systems that rely on trim input, like MCAS, autopilot, Speed Trim, inoperable, but it doesn't make the plane unsafe or uncontrollable.
some people might be bothered if you pay them. Those for whom money isn't an issue and/or are too busy won't, so that will skew the results.

Boring circular drivel, and when you're directed somewhere more fruitful, you think it's "dickish". - I'm sorry that I don't have a scientifically current recommendation and I wouldn't presume to offer an outdated one. If you want recommendations list, google or amazon can help you. Whichever way you approach it, if you are really interested in understanding, you're going to have to do some of the work yourself, and you can't expect to be spoon-fed. That would be dickish.
This is purely anecdotal but, please, no more influx of antibiotic and steroid dispensing doctors that don't know anything else. I'm so tired of doctors that give me the distinct impression they're the equivalent of a tier 1 desktop support rep for the human body.

if linux had openbsd's pledge(2) then you could disable filesystem writes, which you don't need for grepping.
I know linux probably has orher mechanisms to achieve the same result but in this situation pledge seems natural.
You're missing (IMO) the fun one: PXE. Micro SD cards go bad frequently, and this turns the RPi into a Line Replaceable Unit. Should one ever have coffee spilled on it, a new one is plug and play, with (excluding hardware availability) relatively little downtime.
It depends how complex you want to get. First, you have tasks and there a few different types, time-bound (do by friday) and ongoing (do every friday), then your tasks have to prioritized, then they have tobe linked to related tasks, often you need to manage dependencies, which can basically be a directed acyclical graph (or worse, a directed cyclical graph). Of course you often also want to be able to get various retrospective views on what tasks have or have not been completed.

A sufficiently complex to do list is more like jira than like a text file.
Perhaps my wording was careless; I can't go back and edit it now.
You are in a teeny tiny minority. I made it clear I'm talking about the mass market. These arguments are made under the false presence (or delusion) that they are in the interests of the broad base of users who would get lower prices. They would not, we can see that clearly from the Android and PC games markets.

These arguments are being made by a tiny minority for the benefit of a small community of techies who already have platforms available to them that work they way you want and take advantage of it, like you do. It's like coupon clippers insisting on a law that all products sold must some with discount coupons.

“/s” stands for search and “/g” for “global” replace.
The pain of unwrapping a result type? What's painful about it? If, rather than automatically bubbling it up with ? operator, you want to handle the possibility of failure inline explicitly, it's a simple case of pattern matching that's no more verbose than the `if err != nil` idiom

match fallible_function() {
Err(e) => // handle error
Ok(val) => // do something with val
}

In this case, you of course don't need to annotate the outer function's type with its possibility of failure. In the case where you use ?, you of course do have to annotate the possibility of failure. However, I think trying to argue that this is more painful as syntactic ceremony than constant nil checks is a non-starter.

It's a strict improvement. You can choose to unwrap on the spot with the same amount of syntactic ceremony as go, except with the compiler checking you've handled the cases. Or, you can do the same thing you were going to do in go anyway, with a single character and a type annotation instead of a stanza.

All this is ignoring the extra power methods like `map`, `map_err`, `map_or_else`, etc, give you.
Anytime someone does something good it works out to be advertising for their brand, whether that brand is a company or just a personal brand. Unless they do it in a way no one ever hears about it. In which case no one will ever be discussing it.

So your comment is less than trivial, unless you’re implying that it’s a bad thing to do something good if you benefit from it even in the slightest.

This is a list of material and conversion tables composed by the National Diet Library on the old calendars. There are clearly well-established method and researches about this. This would be the most basic problem for anyone studying history in Japan. It may be not straightforward (for you), but it certainly would be too generic and elementary for other historians to read in a paper like this.
The article explicitly states this assumption in the same sentence that I quoted a section from.
Pretty interesting topic. I am all for composability. However, I don't necessarily agree with particular benefits of pure data literals. I feel more secure when I wrap even simple types like Strings so that ItemId, UserId is a String but I cannot interchange them.

Similar level of composability with objects and structs can be achieved with generics and traits. I have a code that operates on arrays and matrices however particular implementations depend on the context - it is a DSL embedded into the application. For example I have `lazy matrices` that don't own the matrix or I can have matrices with owned data.
Probably that’s right. But note that sort, for example, may need to write to (temporary) files. So disabling writes entirely is probably not a sufficient solution
Apple agrees, since they’ve stopped pixel-aligning things now.

Not a fan of grabbing into the 'ole anti-communist propaganda box. I'm not saying communism is a great ideology, I'm saying that we are far from bolshevism, and calling people that have gotten used to fighting privilege and have thus become ideological 'bolsheviks' is unoriginal and boring.
I do think that if you were born with privilege, you don't lose it. Can't undo the past. So yes, even if you give your money away, you are still the 'inheritor of privilege'. It's not about trying to lose that title, it's about what you do with the title. If you donate it all, that's great! But gotta acknowledge where it came from, and not pretend like it was only "habits and hard work". Face the fact that you are privileged, it's not shameful.
Another Comment in this thread already explained that it's not about this guy in particular, but the people who pretend like privilege is not a thing.

TLDR: No matter how much you donate, don't deny your privilege if you don't want to be called out for it.
You can achieve the same thing in Linux with seccomp.
But that still requires plenty of costly changes. They will still have to amend the name in every country, every poster/sign, paper templates, stamps, cards. When you create yor company you still have to declare both the legal entity name "XYZ Ltd" and trade name "X".

It means that they have to send teams (outsource most likely) to every building, in every country, measure, create new models for each dimension, replace. Then, one month(?) later after the fun part is done, they will have to go back and redo everything.

Perhaps it won't cost them 100m, but it will cost them 50m. And then another 50m to change it back.
Wow, one twitter thread worth reading.

I think this is one of the reasons that sincerely the browser should be normalised, have a consistent API across all platforms (including performance characteristics, and native things like movement, sound, etc) and continuously improved, it just evens so much the playing field - by extension it would allow people to actually build novel and interesting ways to use a computer instead of figuring out how to build the same goddamned buttons across platforms. You can't just outcompete the deepness of some pockets when you have to juggle turds across so many layers.

I never tried flow, I did use Asana and liked it compared to whatever else was there, I think it's a good product, although they might be a bit overboard on the rainbow confetti scale, but I still think all of these platforms sincerely lack an approach to digital organisation, they all still behave like their paper based flows/ideas.

Millions upon millions of $ plus human hours, spent on making a todo app working across platforms. It's a waste of human and societal potential.
There was also the cambrian explosion and the dawn of eucariotic life before that, and the invention of agriculture after the arrival of humans, just to name a few. The existence of one singularity in the past doesn't preclude future transitions to new regimes.

One more reason to love that extraordinary web server. It is really wonderful, sad that it is not more used.

I work in IT (was a sysadmin for years, still administer my own servers) and I hated the configuration of the web servers (first Apache, then nginx) - mostly because I was too lazy to read the docs from beginning to end.

This changed with caddy. It is simple, fast, reliable, HTTPS first with LE. Great.

Federally, the corporate tax rate is 21%. The top marginal rate (which all these executives pay) is over 30%. Every dollar that goes to execs is MORE highly taxed than if it had stayed in the corporation.

If the goal is to maximize total tax collected, this is an argument for the total elimination of corporate taxes, not an increase.

The first argument on IQ is the weakest of the article. We can't as a human increase IQ inherently outside of something like iodization.

We can, however, create faster computers. This is the second or third argument, and here the author gets something fundamentally wrong. We have, for the past decades, used faster computers to help us make faster computers. Their argument is that it's self-limiting, but that's provably false viz current CPU architectures.

The one thing the author skirts around that DOES seem to be a strike against the singularity is the asymptotic nature of those kinds of improvements. We can spend N amount of resources for a 100 unit improvement in speed/efficiency/whatnot, but spending 10N resources does not give us 1000 unit improvement, but rather 500 or 150.

People did complain about other companies. A decade ago it was Walmart that was the company everyone was talking about how poorly they treated their employees (which they still do in comparison to competitors like Costco). I think the reason why Amazon is getting the focus now is because Bezos went from being merely a very wealthy man to (depending on the stock market) being literally the wealthiest man in the world.
