Are you fucking kidding me? This is among the most established facts in the whole conflict and you think people are too stupid to do a Google search?

>Israel has imposed movement restrictions on the Gaza Strip since the early 1990’s. Restrictions intensified in June 2007, following the takeover of that part of the occupied Palestinian territory (oPt) by Hamas, when Israel imposed a land, sea and air blockade on Gaza, citing security concerns. Despite relaxation of some blockade-related restrictions in recent years, 1.8 million Palestinians in Gaza remain ‘locked in’, denied free access to the remainder of the territory and the outside world.

By the way, when I traveled to Israel in 2010 I tried to visit the Gaza strip, boy little did I know. It's literally impossible to go there unless you're there for humanitarian reasons.
This is just you not being familiar with the language

Also proprietary blobs seem like a whole separate thing that companies would do to protect IP.
We are training our employees. Learning the ropes of a new language/framework enough to make easy changes is trivial, so why wouldn't we? Much better than crippling our choices in software stacks we can use.
I developed a pattern in typescript (I'm sure it's not original) where I have an interface describing an API entity and a class of the same name with only static methods, one of which is Foo.fromApi() that validates and parses.

I haven't seen any need to bring a library in to handle this. Though it would be nice to marry the worlds of TS, API, and Json Schema.
IIRC, empathy isnt fully developed until the early twenties. Even if you are capable of having sophisticated trains of thoughts you might not realize the scope of consequences from your actions.

Life without parole seems like it should be reserved for those who are beyond saving. Not sure a 15 year old boy would classify as such. It all depends on your view of retribution vs rehabilitation though.
Well, it hasn’t worked yet for that, while taking care of elders has.

Where I live, optometry and dental medicine are carved out of socialized healthcare. Hard to reconcile that with the purely utilitarian theory.

I think the “few people” aspect is important in practice. If the prevalence is too great, it could stop feeling like an accidental curse of fate. Just theorizing.
The most short and elegant example I could come up with that actually worked (since the example above really shouldn't work in Rust in the first place):

fn main() {
let mut v = vec![1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
let new_size = v.len()*2;
v = v.into_iter().cycle().take(new_size).collect();

println!("{:?}", v);
}

Generally you'd start with the common, easier problem before you delve into the abnormal cases.
There are probably better ways to do that, like looking at bloodwork.

Oh, yes it does.

Built-in method and class naming is wildly inconsistent. OO is bolted on, typing is bolted on. While not "the language," the GIL and what it means for parallelism (multiprocessing is a shit show) was a mistake.
When you want the performance of a low level compiled language with the ease of use and powerful constructs of a high level language - and don't want all the bondage and discipline of rust.

It would still be a rip-off for purchasers, but it would have reduced their legal liability to nothing in the various countries involved. Then they could just squirm around securities laws based on how they marketed it, like everyone else.
Although I don't doubt the traumatic nature of your experience and I am genuinely sorry. Surely it would make more sense to diagnose why we have bad actors and seek to rehabilitate them as opposed to dehumanising them and tossing them into a dank cell.
Quite a contrast in reactions between the guy who made millions of dollars from the OneCoin scam and bought a big fancy house:

> After Dr Ruja's non-appearance in Lisbon, a point came when Igor Alberts, like Jen McAdam, asked to see evidence of the blockchain. He didn't get it, and in December 2017 he quit.

> I ask if he felt guilty, for having sold so many people a coin that didn't exist, and for having made so much money in the process.

> "I felt responsibility. Not guilt," he replies. "You can never be blamed for believing in something. I had no clue that it could be false. I didn't even know what is a blockchain… What doubt can I have?"

Versus the woman who lost a lot of money and convinced her friends/family to also throw away their money:

> By contrast, Jen McAdam says she bears a heavy burden of guilt. I ask her how much she earned from selling OneCoin and she says it was €3,000 - €1,800 of which she received in cash, and which she used to buy more OneCoin.

The line about “you can never be blamed for believing in something” is of course self-evidently ridiculous and not something Mr. Roberts would pretend to believe in any other context. But “I’m not a bad person, I was a hapless victim like everyone else” has a compelling logic when you’re profiting from a bad system.
Lol so you think because they didn’t immediately bomb a school they must be lying? Basically no matter what they do you will condemn them, thats pretty illogical not to mention conspiratorial

I'm extremely skeptical of the claim that male aggression is purely environmental. Higher aggression in males is seen in many species of animals, and it is seen even in mouse models where they are kept in an extremely controlled environment with little socialization. There are plenty of mouse studies out there showing significant differences in brain development between the mouse sexes as well.

This article is clearly presenting a single sided perspective on a complicated issue. It is also not a simple "do less harm" sort of thing - in order to one day understand issues like Fibromyalgia it will be critical to study diseases from a female perspective. If one can't acknowledge biological differences (which I have seen in some circles of scientists even), it will only hurt clinical research.
sorry for my ignorance regarding scale of damage causing rockets which I mentioned as "toy rockets". I didn't mean to belittle damage either, I used toy like compared to Israel rockets which are highly accurate and as you mentioned Palestinians have no defense line.

Looks like in Texas the gas tax is $0.20/gallon. A sedan might get 33 miles per gallon, drive 10,000 miles a year, consuming 300 gallons of gas: $60 paid in taxes each year.

Is that right?

The US average looks like 25 mpg and 14,000 miles driven, 560 gallons: $112 or with federal taxes $215.

There would be no point in having two ways to do the exact same thing if function-style declaration and arrow-style declaration implementations were identical. Why would they add a new feature to the language if it was purely syntactic sugar?
Mainly it has to do with teams. In most orgs there is something analogous to "a backend team" and "a frontend team", because the concerns and expertise are quite different.

Oftentimes, however, a frontend dev may need some small extra bit of data or functionality from the backend, and vice versa. If the ecosystems are very different, then the amount of time it takes to set up that separate ecosystem, remind yourself of the relatively minor syntax difference e.g. between TS and Python, update your dependencies, etc. can be a big barrier, so often the answer is to just throw a ticket over to the team on the other side and wait.

If, on the other hand, you can just quickly get into the other codebase, make a small PR and get it reviewed quickly, it can drastically improve the team's overall productivity.
Does the article you linked necessarily contradicts Drew points (C's portability, spec, implementations, stable ABI, and safety isn't always needed)? Yes, Rust may be a better choice for some (many) use cases but you cannot say it's "like C" or "better C". Like how you wouldn't (I guess) refer to Go as like or better Python although many Go devs are former Pythonistas.

Very weak report, Lawrence Summers statement was based on variance, not average. Even if male and female have exactly the same brains on average, it doesn't mean the variances are exactly the same. "Meaningful difference" on average, is not the same as meaningful difference on the tails.

Also, evolution is not a woke algorithm, it doesn't just stop working on sex.
They should make a separate road tax instead of mixing up all sorts of taxes in fuel. Actually there is one for national roads or highways but they'd have to tax by distance, so taxing fuel is an easy one. In Europe we pay more taxes than what the fuel actually costs so obviously people are quite incentivized getting an EV. Which is good news because: no fumes.

> The idea that skepticism is somehow "confrontational"

Your example of skepticism isn't confrontational, in the way that I intended it to mean (as a modifier), because you're reasonably skeptical about what is being directly claimed.

i.e. when someone claims to be able to predict a future solar eclipse, you don't get them to prove their predictive powers by asking them to predict the colour of your new carpet. That would be confrontational. You'd be ghosted, also by the scientist.
More specifically, a proc macro is a Rust function that is compiled and run inside the compiler at build time. With IDEs, LSP and other protocols for having your editor query the compiler (or language runtime, like SLIME/SWANK), the compiler now runs whenever you open your editor.

It’s just not a new problem. Bash does auto–completion on Makefiles, which requires running make and asking it what the make targets are. IDEs can and will run ./configure for you, so that it can find the right include paths. Etc, etc.

Personally, I thought everyone already knew about this. I knew that proc macros would be a risk when I first heard about rls, years ago.

Certainly editors need to confirm with the user that they are ok with starting the compiler when they load a new project, but also we need to use fine–grained security systems like SELinux that can and do prevent programs from accessing things that they’re not supposed to access.
I agree completely - some people deserve cages. My Dad was a police officer and one of his good friends was heavily involved in Victim Services - I grew up hearing about the need for reform in that area and am in complete agreement with you.

It gets tough when you look at entire systems. On one hand, you've got some brave dedicated people who work with asshole criminals. We need a carrot of freedom and parole to keep those people somewhat safe. On the other, if prisons make people worse, that carrot of freedom is dangerous to everyone else. When I look at recidivism rates, I don't think that North American prisons make people better so what the heck do we do??
Cheaters are (for the most part) not a problem on games using the more "modern" kernel mode cheats. There are always going to be some cheaters on PC games, but for games using solutions like EAC, the majority are banned incredibly quickly. Its always a game of cat and mouse. The _only_ solution to cheating is hardware control (see consoles of game streaming), everything else is a sliding scale.

The Nim compiler can detect cycles and warn you. And --gc:orc collects them successfully at runtime. Orc is going to be the default.

There are a couple of options:

- Repeating the vector using the built-in method `Vec::repeat`. This allocates a new vector, but `reserve` is likely to do the same, just implicitly.

https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&editio...

- Using a traditional for loop. There are no lifetime issues, because a new reference is acquired on each iteration. The reserve is not required, but I included it to match your C++ version. https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&editio...

- Creating an array of slices and then concatenating them into a new Vec using the concat method on slices: https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&editio...
I expect that they'll simply have a road tax and a gas tax.
How does an amateur safely do this? I’ve never heard much about amateur chemists…
Not a complex fix. Send in your mileage when renewing the licensing. With the monitoring of new vehicles, you could probably have the manufacturer send it in. Pay a per mile roads tax.

Unfortunately too many proposals want to overcharge and or use Orwellian gps surveillance to determine something simple like mileage.
A more interesting question would be: "How long will it stay fine?"

What made me pick Go over Nim is a bigger standard library. For my use Nim is missing a good http server package/module and templating.

If those two things had been present I would pick Nim over Go, it’s just a nice language for some like me, who have mostly done Python.

I’m not sure if this was a bug in a third party module, but I also struggled a little with unicode support.
Do gasoline taxes go towards providing filling stations at convenient places? I thought they were - at least in theory - supposed to go towards highway maintenance. In which case it seems only right that you should pay some kind of fee or tax towards this; after all, your Tesla uses the same roads as any other car.
Are you serious?? You doubt that the "average citizen" lost out from having their resources plundered / dissidents murdered / genocides committed / food siphoned out during famines / outstandingly successful land reforms overturned because US companies wanted to hoard land ...

It's staggering how insulting your comment is. How would you feel if somebody invaded your country, dismantled your government, decided who got to rule you, and told you it was all for the best and you probably didn't even lose out. Would you like it?

That's not the region where they come from. They are primarily collected from their locations of origin which is in Yunnan. This is not to say that there are not horseshoe bats in Wuhan although they don't like urban areas and live in the outskirts. It's simply to state that the concentration of viruses that have escaped into animal populations and then humans are all concentrated in Yunnan.

I assure you this is very uncomfortable information for me and I was horrified while reading it because I didn't want to believe it. It's especially alarming to me because I'm concerned about the geopolitical implications of people in nations like India gradually realizing this.

I am not foolish enough to make conclusions yet because I do believe it's too early but as of now the likelihood of origin has shifted strongly in favor of an accidental lab escape. The animal transmission model via nature simply requires numerous highly improbable events for it to be the culprit. This doesn't rule it out it's simply makes it a lower probability of occurrence.
I am going to drop a thought here to see what happens.

WA has similar fees for electric vehicles and the main problem is the fact that it's a flat fee. With gas taxes you inherently pay more if you drive more, whereas EV owners pay the same regardless of how much they drive. Moreover, it's a $225 fee which is what a 30mpg gas car would pay for driving ~15k miles or so.

This TX bill seems to have a flat fee + another fee based on mileage, which sounds more reasonable.
Yeah, I am just starting to see 1 star reviews on my repost app (https://github.com/sschueller/easyrepost) . It's totally broken now. Good thing I open sourced it and gave up on monetization in part to HN horror stories of people building business on top of other services like Facebook.
