Even if the called function (call it B) does use the object as an argument for another function it calls (call it C), B could end up having to perform another copy for that call, if B also takes a pointer to the variable at some point and lets it escape. Or a pointer to any part of the variable.

And it’s not limited to mutable pointers. Sure, if the variable itself is marked const, then it’s UB to modify it. But const local variables are rare in most codebases, in my experience. If on the other hand you pass the address of a non-const variable as a function argument, even if the type of the argument is a const pointer, the function can legally cast away the const and write to the pointer.

Still, I agree that this would probably eliminate more copies than it creates. But I don't think it would eliminate or create very many copies. In my experience, approximately nobody writes code that passes structs by value in the first place.

Nope. If the host shows the goat _for any reason_, then the 2/3 chance that the doors you didn't choose contain the car now applies to the one unchosen door remaining -- and you should switch.

Key escrow for the FBI was a cryptographic backdoor during the crypto wars in the 90s, and it is still the same today.

Defaults matter.

Apple had a plan to secure it, and (I understand) a partial implementation. It was killed specifically to aid surveillance capabilities. If that isn't a backdoor, I don't know what is.
Eh, the formulation I like goes:

You pick a door.

The host runs up and knocks on one of the other doors, without opening it or saying anything. He just indicates a door.

Now you have the option to stick with your one original door, or to take both of the other two doors.

Which is better?

And then: how is that scenario different from the one where he opens the special door and reveals a goat?

There may not be any strong correlation but I think it's always best to look at things like these with the intent to learn what you can as opposed to looking for flaws.

Now, that doesn't mean you dismiss what flaws you find, just don't let those get in the way of what might be learned or what deserves more attention.

I've not read the article, just the comments here, but I have grown my own shiitake mushrooms, and a lot of them. So I've eaten a lot of them too.

If the app is JavaScript heavy anyway, and it likely is if something like this is being considered, you have that all loaded into each tab/window instead of just one. Also you no longer have what might be small tightly coupled app elements contained in a simple tab where they can't get confusingly separated and where the app has to work harder if it needs some for control (a modal UI element being the most simple example).

Though I think you misunderstood what I was getting at with the tab/window thing. I was pointing out that the general "why X when you can Y" stated in the parent post isn't a great arguement, on its own, for not X.

I specifically avoid local businesses because I've never had a good experience. Not only are they more expensive, but the quality of the products are usually worse and returns are a hassle. The local businesses usually have a very limited or no return policy. Just because a business is local doesn't make it better.

I personally support the crypto-anarchist take you're espousing, but assuming that most of this stuff isn't a predatory cesspool pushing unsophisticated retail investors off of a cliff by the force of isolation-induced FOMO seems a little naïve.

Ive used a bit of smithy at work. Yes, composable models, projections, and transforms are super common. Think joining multiple microservices in to a single public interface or splitting out different service/client models based on tags or traits. Most of this is handled by build infrastructure so it takes some mental energy to setup but then it “just works.”

Sure!

Our domain is precision oncology. In brief, this is about matching cancer patients with available targeted therapies by examining the genome of their cancer. This is different from how the majority of cancer patients are treated today: surgery and {chemo,radio}therapy.

Here is a problem in our domain where tech is one of the limiting factors.

If you look at the DNA of any cell and compare it against the reference genome, you'll find a lot of differences, aka variants. Typically even more so if you're looking at a sequenced tumour (~1e6 variants). This is your hay stack. And a variant that can be medically targeted to treat the cancer is the needle. The definition of what variant is "clinically relevant" is layered, context-dependent, and (partially) regulated. Software is responsible for automating away the majority of variants, say down to 10-100, in a justifiable, traceable way. It's also responsible for giving tools to the clinician to deal with the remaining ones. This manual step typically involves an informed line of questioning about each variant backed by 100s of supporting data points about it.

Without these two tech pieces, interpreting a single molecular pathology report can and does take many hours of (expensive) expert time, instead of minutes. For a rough sense of scale: human genome has ~3e9 nucleotides (ACTG), has ~3e4 known genes, ~1e6 known gene interactions, and ~1e8 known variants. Typical whole genome sequencing produces > 30GB of raw data (compressed).

This is probably the first problem everyone runs into. There are plenty of other ones, some more challenging and interesting than others. Feel free to send me an e-mail if you'd like to discuss this more! amir[at]streamlinegenomics.com

> The follies of a “first do no harm” approach are redoubled today, when the failure to grapple with inequality, and especially climate change, threatens the stability of the global order.

In one sentence, the idea of cautious changes is abandoned without a single argument, while it simultaneously argues for the kind of conservatism for which the author blames Hume.

That said, I totally do believe that a great philosopher is not a good statesman by definition. Our models, our theories, our thinking are not capable of encompassing the complexity of a single being, let alone a society. To change society's direction only the tiniest bit requires an entirely different skill set.

Regulation does not exist to prevent people from taking risks. It exist to prevent people from buying something with a risk profile that they do not understand.

Spot cryptocurrencies are not a complex product, so very little need to protect retail from it. The risk is first order and easily understandable by retail investor. At least as much as going to a casino.

What requires regation are sophisticated products where the risk/reward is more complex, such as (inverse) futures, which require understanding margining, leverage, liquiditation, etc and would be really deceptive for a retail investor.

AFAIK crypto futures are already forbidden for retail in US & UK and require to be institutional/HNW with KYC.

As for the token themselves, regulation is there too, there are clear distinctions for most regulator on utility, security, commodity tokens, etc.
Do you have support for VIM bindings? Or a plan to add them sometime in the future?
Perhaps the only thing that actually happens is that bubbles pop (as they always have and always will) and all that remains is anything of substance? Many cryptocurrencies and stocks are garbage but quite a number of cryptocurrencies and stocks are backed by solid companies and technology.

A few greedy people get lucky and pull out of the bubble with returns. Most greedy people get burned by their get- rich-quick gambling.

This is not anything new or terrible. Of course, all of this craziness can be used to mask genuine scams or scamish-marketed "investments". Those are what the Feds need to chase and prosecute. There are plenty of cryptocurrencies (and inflated stock evaluations) that are genuine pump and dump scams. These pump and dumps really should be prosecuted harshly.

We really need to get over this idea that we can regulate away losses and negative outcomes of basic stupid human behavior simply because it seems like an ideal that we be able to do so.
What was the lie? Fauci said his honest opinion based on the facts and situation at the time. He didn't comment on whether the masks work.

Fauci said whether people should be wearing them because of covid at the time, when there was a shortage on them and they were yet unproven for use in the general public. On the other hand, it was proven that masks need to be used by health care workers, and that the public has proven options in dealing with viruses: hand washing and social distancing. It makes perfect sense why health officials would advise against an unproven method, especially considering the shortage on PPE. Now that the shortage has passed and new evidence has come to light, of course the stance changes. That's how time and research works.

And what ever you think about Fauci, this is OT because Fauci is not a representative of the media. Unless your argument is that the media shouldn't cover what US top health officials are saying during a pandemic?
And unfortunately, many nutrition studies are garbage as well.

I’ll add, the 14TB WD externals disappeared off the shelves at the local Best Buy in the past month. The data hoarding subreddit was calling those the best price per TB. There were some $140 listings for an 8TB drive on Amazon a week or two ago, but now they’re $165 and out of stock. I think crypto and hoarding are the reasons; of course inflation is a multiplier.

My impression from covid online school was that it is strictly inferior to in person school. The more important and core the concept is, the more you want it taught in person.

I don't even care about exact practical and psychological reasons for it. I know that I would not picked online school for my kids whenever there is choice.

And beyond the cost on kids, the cost on parents, specifically on mothers who took brunt of it is considerable too. In terms of losing jobs and this pushing whole familly into problems, in terms of exhaustion and isolation too.
Not saying I necessarily agree with the decision but I can imagine there is an argument to be made for moderation. Just banning it outright probably saves them a bunch of money and overhead.

Using email for development isn't the 80s. It is very streamlined and built into the Git code itself and mail clients that are actively maintained like Mutt.

The explanation that best helped me 'intuitively' understand things is to rephrase the game as being two separate games: choosing one of three doors, and after that having the option to go for a coin toss instead. Obviously you'd go for the coin toss.

It's absurd to suggest there is only one option.
