This logic only holds if you assume that the US military are merciless killing machines that unquestioningly follow orders. There are plenty of examples of much weaker revolutionary forces prevailing over modern well-funded militaries.[1] Heck, there are many examples of civilian areas that are so persistently violent that the state simply refuses to enforce laws there.[2]

No leader has unilateral control to unleash the full force of the military on their own citizenry. Imagine what would happen if POTUS tried to order a nuclear strike, or even aerial bombing, on an American city? The Joint Chiefs would almost certainly arrest him immediately. Ordering soldiers to fire on their fellow citizens drastically raises the probability of outright mutiny. This is true even in the most oppressive regimes. Even the Nazis were genuinely scared of average German citizens turning on them for perceived abuses.[3]

Totally agree. I love his lectures on writing which you can find on YouTube. He's a great teacher with excellent content. But great teachers aren't always the best writers.

I decided to try the Mistborn trilogy. The first book was great - a nice tight and satisfying story. But the second and third books got progressively messier and I found myself totally disconnected and eventually just slogging through to the end. I wish I would have stopped after the first book.

Sanderson admits loving to write write write and hating to rewrite and edit, which I think really showed in the latter books of the trilogy.

In English, the equivalent is often expressed as "The Road not Taken", from Robert Frost's poem of the same name.

The two, though contemporaries, could not be more different in my mind, and that is represented in the clarity of the short statement vs short poem. Yet the underlying loss expressed’ is the same.

(I don't intend to get into lit crit: the last line of the poem heads in an additional direction, but that's the difference between three words and a few hundred)
Teenage Years Frivolously Spent
If a civilization has sufficiently advanced technology, then I would imagine they would be scouring the cosmos for more resources.

Ultimately, every species is biologically trained to propagate itself, consuming resources and expanding presence, unless there are other external factors governing (for example, long gestation periods, limited offspring, etc)

So, advanced civilizations might put communication mechanisms in convenient places to contact inferior species.
I’ve had incredible experiences pairing.

There were whiteboards, snacks, rating each other’s themes, and jokes.

What worked very well was to pair for conceptional problems, like architecture and defining modules and their interfaces. Commit some types and pseudo-code.

We’d then break away and work at our own speed and in our own style using the common foundation.

Come together to integrate and discuss.

Pairing is also worth it’s weight in gold for debugging. It’s like a rubber duck, but doesn’t feel wrong.

It is of course of utmost importance that both parties enjoy it. Else it’s pain and a waste of everybody’s time. I had a colleague who hated it like the plague. In which case short code/review cycles worked best.

A good tool, if employed correctly. Like most things, really. And fuck management if they force it down on me.

How many nines will managed RonDB provide when running in public clouds?
Well, of course there are other subtleties involved, but even the money that I pay for a given stock doesn't just go to the company unless it's an IPO. It might indirectly benefit the company because I'm adding to the demand and driving the stock price up, which helps all holders of the stock, including the company that issued the stock originally.

However, my point is that people are not buying stocks to own OR to benefit the company. They're buying stock so that a "bigger sucker" will come around later and buy it from them and they can make a profit.

So I guess it depends on who we're talking about when we say "primary purpose", but for anyone who is purchasing stocks, the primary purpose is NOT to be an owner of a company. The primary purpose is to speculate.
100% of democracies with widespread civilian firearm ownership remained democracies during the entirety of the past century. Less than one in ten democracies without widespread firearm ownership did. How is that a negative effect?
Especially egregious given that, since it was voluntary on the bank's part, they could simply (haha) have transitioned different people at different times. Start with transitioning a single customer, make sure it goes well, then a few dozen, etc. Spend a little money on incentives for people to volunteer to go early, it wouldn't take that much money to get a few dozen volunteers.

It's one thing if it goes poorly in a disaster-response kind of situation, where you could not practice beforehand. But this is a self-imposed transition, with at least some control over the timeline, so they should have been able to find these kinds of issues in beta testing.
Bootstrap vs. React: A Comparison of 12 Principal Components
Bootstrap is often referred to as an open-source frontend toolkit, while Reactjs is a JavaScript library for building UI. With the building popularity and an emerging market share of Bootstrap, it has proved to be a good competition against React. With distinct qualities, characteristics, and features in each of these frameworks, the question that comes to our mind is, “Which one is the optimal framework for our project?”

As far as I can tell, yes, it is.

Showing a universal Turing machine is a proof of the fact that when you write stuff like the smn theorem or anything that uses universal functions you aren't writing nonsense.

There is no "contract" between the universal machine and the hypothetical user. One could certainly ensure that, say, the input TM is properly formatted, or that "the runtime" will only use a certain set of cells, and so on. The difficulties and problems one would find in trying to do so are the same one would face when writing an operating system and a compiler.
I don't understand why you are combining tx and RX. PCI, fiber, and the switch/nic are all full duplex, so you don't need to add the two directions together. A dual port nic, even with pcie4, is unlikely to be able to hit 200G ( single direction) unless it's using very large packet sizes.

Since you're limited by the 100G negotiated speed, you nic will never send more than 100G with iperf on a single port.

Believe it or not, massive governments that employ hundreds of thousands of people are capable of doing multiple things simultaneously.

It's funny how movies always show a telescope operator falling asleep listening to deep space as if that's what he does every day and every night....

> it's a bit funny that you see the world "good enough", considering the current pandemic if nothing else.

Pandemics will inevitably occur, however rarely, as long as humans exist. Similarly computers will be exploited, no matter how secure they are. That’s just the reality of complex systems. Natural market forces have already deployed people toward decreasing the probability of future pandemics, which were already rare. Seems good enough to me, if not ideal. What else can be done?

Toyota (for example) doesn't get the chips directly, this is about visibility/planning/management of your vendor's vendor's vendor's. Those chips (Tier 3+) become boards (Tier 2) become center consoles (Tier 1) that an OEM installs.

The question isn't how stock is tracked or risked, its who is responsible for it.
Sorry you had to go through that, but standards bodies are literally political bodies. That's why the commercial representatives are not devs. They are there to advocate for their own constituents, not help others. The Cisco/Microsoft guys just wanted to make sure nobody would break their products, and that their products would work with other things. That generally means changing as little as possible, which can definitely look like "not working".
> that means it will be all ours to play with

That also means we need to survive here on Earth, and perhaps change as a species in various aspects in order to even make a small step of becoming an interplanetary and then, in long the run maybe even interstellar species.

Awesome-Vector-Search: Vector search libraries, services, and papers
Even just making software for those things can be interesting. You need to know how the memory is laid out. You need to know if an interrupt happens at the wrong spot you are broken. I had one where the data was bumping through a 485 bus and the data was coming out wonky on the other side. Meaning I had 0 control over the software or hw on the other side as it was a vendor product. But I could at least read the chips numbers and guess what the dev did with the memory segments on the other side. Turns out I was telling the thing to read over a memory boundary which caused odd results. Which lead me to breaking the command into 2 parts.

Sometimes being an embedded dev is dead easy. Other times you are dealing with a GCC chain from 2003. 2 layers of some 3rd party of libs that someone bought in 2005 because the VP was good friends with a buddy in some other company that made something similar (which you may may not have the code for). With 64k of flash and RAM. And the vendor ground off the chip numbers and put their own sticker in place. Playing detective, historian, and making good guesses as you may not even have access to the firmware anymore. Then on top of that sometimes you are really lucky and have a debug port and can play the printf logging game to see what is going wrong.

Are you suggesting that a few extra light weapons floating around in the 1930s would have stopped the Nazis and Soviets steam rolling across the Europe?

Are you suggesting civilian firearm ownership somehow prevented the Nazis from skipping over the Atlantic and taking over America? Why did America waste all that money on submarines and aircraft carriers, when they had such deep reserves of plucky gun enthusiasts at the ready?

I'm so confused by your comment.

Bodyweight fitness is also a great way to start. Until you're pretty far along, it's about as effective for gaining strength as weights, and has other benefits (balance, flexibility, coordination, etc).

Lots of good info on the sidebar here: https://www.reddit.com/r/bodyweightfitness/
I can confirm. Simple’s app was beautiful, elegant, fast, easy to use, didn’t flash unnecessary or ugly (Account numbers, innocuous warnings, Bad UI elements, Broken transitions, switching between the app and the web interface); things Chase, US bank, city, Bank of America are all guilty of. I loved being able to set aside money with the simple account.

Now I have first hand experience with BBVA as well. I’ll give it to them their app is pretty good. It’s clean, fast, and the transitions are good. Logging in is fast and easy. But boy the app experience is not anything I would call elegant. It was clearly designed by very square people with lawyers and accountants as their inspiration.
> Me, and the animal I live inside.

This dualism is unhelpful. You are the animal. You aren't a thing inside of yourself. Yes, sometimes your mind can be sharp and your body tired, but at the end of the day, you are the unity created by the synthesis, not some disembodied force.

The worst thing about dualism is that people who think of themselves as not religious do it unreflectively, whereas when religious people do it, at least it's on the table as something up for debate.
First.

If getPrice fails, the stack trace will start there. If it returns null (which it should not) and trigger a npe, then the line:

map(e -> e.getKey().getPrice().multiply(new BigDecimal(e.getValue()))).

Is just as dense as the original:

sum = sum.add(entry.getKey().getPrice().multiply(new BigInteger(entry.getValue())

And the stack trace would be just as confusing.

Second.

The key thing with streams is to borrow from the functional programming paradigm: Split data and functions, avoid or isolate side-effects.

Do this correctly and there is a quite real plus in productivity.
Companies aren't going to voluntarily make it easy to switch to the competition.
> Which of my facts are made up?

All of them. You said wages were "falling behind" and I showed that was not the case. Now you say wages are "falling behind asset price growth" which is a meaningless statement because there will always be some asset prices that have increased more that wages have, just like there will always be some asset prices that have increased less than wages.
Somebody could make a GDPR request to find out.
True. Though, if that management is measuring the right things, they will perceive it. But "the right things" is very broad and hard to define; and probably dynamic over the years event.
Financial exchanges need to prove to you that trades really do happen with real money at the prices they say it happens, and that the order book isn't cooked. If I were to open an exchange for shitcoin, and show you pretty graphs and fake orders to buy shitcoin, would you believe me when I tell you that's what shitcoin is worth? no. Trades with tether are exactly that: trades with make belief dollars. Bitfinex prints tethers and shows you orders for trades in tether, while most of these trades are probably bitfinex trading it's make belief currency with itself. You should be the one requiring evidence that the trades are real.

I had so many negative experience pair programming that I started to find ways to avoid it.

There were the pairs the insisted on using vim[1]. There were the pairs that hogged the keyboard. I'm sure there were other things that frustrated me about it (it's been a long time since this was an every day thing now). In the end though, I opted out of pairing, first by taking a devops role at the same company that didn't require it, and later by not applying to any company that had that as a requirement.

To be clear, I'm not against pairing occasionally, but overall I prefer to be alone with my thoughts while programming -- not having to negotiate every little thing with a new pair.

If that doesn't suit the company, then so be it.

[1] I have nothing against vim, and I even know how to use it's basic functionality, but it's a huge barrier to being involved and efficient on someone's computer.

Lecture on Comsec, 1954 [pdf]
Yeah, this is a well-known controversial aspect of PNAS publishing. However, not all uses of this track of publication is necessarily nefarious. See this for instance -- https://www.nature.com/news/scientific-publishing-the-inside... . I was also told that use of this track is some times for very mundane reasons too --- like a professor trying to help a struggling grad student satisfy PhD requirements such as needing X number of papers to graduate. More often than not, good ideas do get held up in other journals for all kinds of non-scientific reasons. I've certainly not seen too many examples of overly-erroneous science in this track either, at least in genomics.

I do thoroughly understand your concerns and distaste here that this allows prominent academics to push their (possibly incorrect) views/results on something far outside their expertise. I would love if PNAS publishes the peer reviews for papers such as these that pertain to ongoing health crises (eLife makes peer reviews public, but keeps the reviewers' identity anonymous).
Unfortunately some dead links, e.g. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6512288

Would be cool if HN had its own web archive after 100 comments or so.
You can make that point better if you cut the "inside" part and have the big reveal at the end be that you are the animal. Having the big reveal be that you're in the animal sets up a false distinction which doesn't help make the point.
I don't really enjoy programming. But I love having new ideas, and enjoy being able to validate them by programming.

So I'm obviously not a monk but I've known some and that doesn't surprise me too much.

Outside of some orders that highly value education, I think monastic life generally discourages knowing things for the sake of knowing them.

The political origins of a monastic order are not spiritually or theologically significant to a monk in that order really. Like sure they should know but I can imagine how it would come about that one would not.

My guess is that there are many factors.

- More infrastructure than ever has some exposure to the internet
- Outsourcing at massive scale (probably) makes consistent security screening harder
- There are more programmers in the world than ever and so (probably) there are more black hats, malicious hackers, etc
- As time goes on, there are more and more aging computer systems, thus (probably) there are more and more vulnerabilities in the wild
- As time goes on, systems accrete complexity, thus (probably) there are more and more vulnerabilities in the wild

But yes, I do think cryptocurrency is an important change. Cash is still king when it comes to crime, but crypto does make crossing borders much easier.
During my (as said before ! =) short search on "beslissen etymologie" I found [1]. Which seems to list lemmas from several dictionaries, that span a time period of almost a century, and that do not always arrive at the same conclusion.

>There may very well be people who work well in pairs, but rest assured that there are those who aren't built that way. Don't disparage them, don't discriminate against them, and don't play the moral superiority game with them. Accept their diversity and be a better team for it.

The most progressive view I've seen so far in the "official" dogma of pairing says to accept people who work better outside of pairing, but to exclude them from important projects. I'm at a loss as to how this is a good thing, and to me is a sign of pairing becoming a religion of extreme bigotry.

Thank you for saying something that should be common sense! Don't expect everyone to work and think in the exact same way!
