I don't think harming all Iranians via sanctions for the actions of the regime is the right way to deal with this, especially because the sanctions do nothing to stop persecution of LGBT.
Onne important point of startups that pay less than established companies is that it is the best way to get into the industry by outsiders. Sure, if you can choose a FAANG or similarly sized company, startups are not a great bet at all.

But FAANG big as they are are a small fraction of the action.
Actions defined in options are the killer for me at the minute (and guards, but actions are more important generally). I've had to resort to using enums (+ type guards + coercions) for everything. Have you any idea on if/when can get these in the model API? At the minute the API is nice, but not particularly useful with only context & events. The type gen library seems to be a sticking plaster more than anything else: it's clever, but building an NPM package on the fly seems super fiddly (and flat out doesn't work with newer Yarn setups), so movement forward on inference without it would be great
You can use a boolean ref for this in the useEffect to keep track whether it was the first render or not.

I don't think that's his point.

The US doesn't embargo Iran because of that. Otherwise they'd probably have to embargo a bunch of their closest allies for half a century or more.

It's all realpolitik, morals don't influence this issue much.
1. C does not have only indirection.

2. Message passing is an ideal, an ethos, the implementation (or the interface) can get in the way of that. That the messages are implemented as dynamically dispatched function calls… would be an implementation detail. Though with far ranging implications of course (especially in that the response is direct and synchronous rather than an other message as it would be in, say, Erlang).

The mention of Self was not innocent, though it does use synchronously dynamic dispatch, a message might invoke a block, or just set or retrieve a value. If you’re asserting that it’s all « calling a function » then you’re basically just reductio at absurdum-ing everything to calling functions which… sure? You can model and reduce everything to lambda calculus.
Like it was always done before DNA testing, I guess...
Cloudflare, that is 1.1.1.1 or one.one.one.one if DNS lookup is needed.
That's unfortunate, but does 1 monitor/lid closing make a difference?
As I said, I did not see this particular exhibit.

I have seen MOMA exhibits--and indeed a lot of their permanent design collection--that exists at the intersection of form and function. And, in general, I find that a useful lens for design. I don't find chairs that look "cool" but are horribly uncomfortable especially interesting. And I'd feel similarly about a unique computer design that overheated.
I think that's a huge part of the problem though - we've made it so the only way we can get research done is by training a new researcher - even though there's already plenty of trained researchers who are struggling to find a decent job.

I'm suggesting that we re-direct some of the funding for training PhD students into funding for postdoctoral positions (via either fellowships or research grants). Professors would still get their research team, but rather than consisting mostly of untrained PhD students, they'd have a smaller, but more effective team of trained researchers.
I misread the article. Never mind earlier comment.
Apple AirPods Max Wired Playback 'Will Not Be Completely Lossless'
Very useful - thanks!
I just don't click on Medium posts, but I wholeheartedly agree. Medium (as well as Substack, for that matter) is one of the largest SAAS failures in the past decade IMO.
I mean, that would essentially be a law that makes executions illegal. Which is a law that most civilized countries have.
You should study linguistics. Your're flat-out incorrect.

I speak two languages fluently and they really are two different modes of thinking. That's why translation is an art, not a science, and for literary stuff it's quite difficult.
I have been following my dreams for... perhaps the past 16 years, since late adolescence. It's always been a part of my makeup to chase after what seems most desirable while being somewhat risk averse. It's been a tumultuous ride. I've made plenty of mistakes, of poor decisions, I've tried many ways of living, I've been lucky and unlucky, I've learned a lot, I've suffered a lot, I've changed a lot. I've sacrificed health and relationships, spent resources aplenty... for mixed results. I can confidently say what make me happiest are my partner of eight years and my two daughters. I feel like I (we) built something nice to continue living carefully with passion.

E.g. I decided about two years ago to transition from Education (I was a special ed teacher in the private sector), where I hoped to develop useful tech for learning, to the world of Tech with the same goal in mind. I have always had an affinity for programming-- I have fond memories of making games (e.g. snake), bots, harmless trojans, etc. with the mIRC scripting language--, and an interest in solving problems related to the contents of our minds. I completed a few contracts in web development related to Wordpress (html, css, js, php, mysql) to get myself going, before deciding to learn a stack that would enable me to find better work opportunities or develop a learning product. I settled on React/Apollo/Express/Prisma/Postgres and have been working part-time on a flashcard web app eversince. I'm inspired by the likes of Duolingo, Anki and Quizlet, though I have a special appreciation for Lichess, among others. I wish to make it easier to choose/manage/share what one knows. I would like to generate revenue with this enterprise, but I'm unsure whether I will succeed. If I don't, I wonder how difficult it would be to find work related to what I've learned.

Why only 30 Hz? I hear 60 Hz solves a different class of issues.
_Having_ to work (instead of the privilege of working if you want on whatever you want) is the root of evils.

Startup life isn’t working on what I want, it’s agile firefight every sprint. Corporate life wasn’t working when I wanted, it was plowing through the day unproductive and unmotivated.
>If quantified the performance gap between me (unfit, untrained) and Bolt will be smaller than the gap between me (practised programmer) and Bellard.

This is quite the assumption. Bolt is the fastest man we've ever seen. You actually think you're more closely competitive to him than Bellard???
All those things were already illegal (worse yet, immoral) whether you pay for them in fiat or in Bitcoin. That's a false equivalence.
Amiga had a help key.

Seems to be a tiny wrapper around VNRecognizeTextRequest which is available on iOS, macOS etc. It's a dozen lines of code to do this - I think someone should build this into a menu item app, perhaps?
Especially when the current result is based on eyewitness testimony, which is known to be crap.
Yet the principle of pursuing knowledge is not for pecuniary interests. So your judgment demonstrates the temporal shift of the Western University towards rubber stamping people’s vocational aptitude. This leads to corruption, of course.
UBI is not about working on any hobby you want. It’s about redistributing wealth so that people can negotiate for more of the pie since the current system relies on using the cumulative wealth of one’s ancestors to determine their bargaining power.
All the talk about a lab leak is bullshit, anti-chinese propaganda. It is not a lab leak, but if it was, it's more likely to be a lab leak in Anerica.

Discussions like these seem to miss the critical difference between individually and socially rational incentives and behaviors. Surely, given you at least live in a place that is sufficiently secure and stable with liberal markets and access to capital, anyone can get rich by following in the footsteps of the investor class. It is definitely not the case that everyone can get rich this way. If all 8 billion people on the planet did nothing but shuffle around paper ownership claims, there would be nothing to actually own. For an economy to produce anything at all, the vast majority of participants need to be on the ground making stuff, with only a tiny vanishing few shuffling paper at the top to decide who gets to own the inputs and outputs.

Maybe we'll actually reach some future where all production and maintenance labor is fully automated and most participants in an economy won't be human and we can just ethically enslave them for the benefit of human owners, but we're nowhere near that point.

I'm living right now in a hotbed of construction, a rapid growth metro, and I'm in the middle of it. Three lots I can see from my bedroom window are being leveled and turned into townhouses. That work is being done by people. They certainly have machine work multipliers. Nobody is carrying lumber and stone by hand from quarries to job site. Nobody is leveling the earth with shovels and trowels. But the bobcats and trucks are still operated by humans. Pipe is laid by humans. Walls are erected by humans. If all those people tried to do my job instead and became coders, or worse, tried to become investors, I and all the investors would be left with nowhere to live because no one would be building houses. We'd have no water or electricity if no one was laying the pipes and lines.

At some point, we should realize this and attempt to have an economy that recognizes most people in the economy have to be doing basic labor for there to be an economy at all, and figure out a way to accomplish this without these people needing to live paycheck to paycheck with the looming threat of a medical emergency able to wipe them out permanently. We can't just tell them to all change their focus from doing work to building wealth, because if they actually all do that, there will no longer be any wealth.
We statically linked it, and didn't use the system/steam provided version at all. I guess if a user tried to use SDL_DYNAMIC_API, it would break in strange and unexpected ways. TBH I didn't know that option existed until just now. We never had any problems with our approach, afaik.
I dislike our alliance with Saudi Arabia. What is your point?
opengl was definitely my gateway into being better with 3D math. I ended up writing a couple xscreensavers based on my knowledge (glplant and pulsar).
But there are many generations of cruft. Table-based layouts is just one thing, how about font-tags, quirks-mode-triggering doctypes, frames, float-based layouts, <!--[if IE]> and so on. Each of these might by necessary to understand in some very specific cases of legacy code.

I'm just saying: Don't put this up front in a tutorial.

Don't explain GOTO before explaining if-else blocks.
It's easier to just get rid of the death sentence all together.
Ask HN: If I travel to China, does China have all of my iCloud data?
I understand that Apple has built data centers in China. I notice I have access to my icloud photos and notes in China. Therefore If I travel to China, will the icloud data centers sync giving China access to all of my information?
Okay...but on /r/personalfinance, people show up all the time with a litany of complaints and a litany of awful, awful budget mistakes they have no interest in fixing. 120/month cellphone, 400/month doordash, Dodge Charger with a 600/month note. And so on.

each case was a frustrating puzzle

What puzzled you? The necessities should never be a puzzle. If the rent, the food, the utilities, the insurance, and the day care add up to less than the income, then everything else could be saved if you dispense with luxuries. If the necessities are more than the income, you either have to cut back on something important or work a second job. That's not fun, but it's also no puzzle.
I think it's probably close to the time the market closes, so they give away food cheaper that they would have to throw away otherwise.
I took fullscreen screenshots to get the statistics, then cropped via another screenshot. The first one was 2560x1440. The 2nd one was 5220x2880. So noticeably sharper.

On your page, could you add links to the various national chess federations? They maintain lists of chess clubs. For the U.S. there is the United States Chess Federation https://new.uschess.org/ . States of the U.S. have their own affiliated organizations, for example MACA http://www.masschess.org/ for Massachusetts.
In this case, the rationale was that there is no DNA evidence that would outweigh the eye witness testimony.
1. XSS != SQL injection

2. Adding a bunch of bogus escaping routines isn't an excuse for an incredibly poorly conceived off language, or continuing using it in production in the presence of superior solutions.

In fact, I'd go so far as to say if you're selling PHP solutions/consulting in this century for apps managing ecommerce or any other kind of PII, you should demand your customer signs a liability waiver. If you can even disclaim liability for gross negligence in your jurisdiction, that is.
I had an appendectomy just before the final first-year Modern Physics lab and had to come back in to do a make-up lab. Sure enough it was the slightly-messed-up lab where the results should in theory look exponential but come out linear. I, naturally, drew an exponential curve through the points. Lab instructor decided to grade it right there before I left and tore a strip off me.

Very valuable lesson, although it sure did suck at the time.
It would still allow them to go after notorious people caught in the act where there really is no risk of confusion.

I mean, better to just ban it entirely, but I’d take culpability as a half measure.
If you're selling to engineers, it would be an easy transition. In fact, I could probably pretty easily find a job with one of my clients since they see me as an expert in the field. If you're selling to non-engineers it might be trickier. Just like with engineering, the next job you get can depend a lot on what you were doing previously. If you're coding or architecting as a sales engineer, you are set up well to do that in your next position. If you're selling a less technical product and are never really coding or architecting, then you will have to climb your way back if you want to return to SWE.
Added a note that I was drawing 20W even when lid was closed. Thanks for feedback.
I imagine it's when a market closes and they often give away food or sell it for cheap. I used to do it all the time and it was amazing how much free food I'd get!
O/T - How many side mirror rims were in each cycle? If it were just one, then your shifts must have been over a day long, which doesn't make much sense.
The article is an exaggeration. Once most of the people is vaccinated and the pandemic is over, it will be safe to open again.

Perhaps with some intermediate steps, like requiring vaccination certificates, of even some quarantine for arrivals. But this was already used for other illness like malaria, so it's not new or unimaginable.
I think you missed my point. It’s not about party governance.

The more reactionary elements are, to put it politely, bullies. Stefanik went to school a few blocks away from me and her evolution/devolution has been well publicized even before she hit the national spotlight. It makes her the perfect patsy.

She has been “rewarded” for loyalty, but has to double down on whatever. The problem is you have to do what the bullies want or you’re in the cold.

The issue for the public at large is you have a coalition of reactionaries, losers (the Colorado bartender with a gun fetish turned Representative) and compromised people whose only path forward is double down on extremism. There’s a non-zero probability that someone like Rep. Greene will accuse POTUS of being a alien lizard-person. It’s exactly the same as McCarthy.
It'll be life changing but a bit like flowers for Algernon in that the effect fades over the years with tolerance.
Awesome! Note that there are better writeups for learning the specific implementation details for any given technique, and this article was mainly written to give people a rough “mental model” when assessing a whitepaper or siggraph talk or something. If I have time I’ll go back and add a section with references to the core techniques I see in use today.
Makes sense, it just removes a huge amount of stress, burning of fuel, getting stuck in traffic jams and arbitrary office politics.
this was exactly my experience and I remember the paper that I read that finally convinced me. It turns out the author had intentionally omitted a key step that made it impossible to reproduce the results, and only extremely careful reading and some clever guessing found the right step.

There are several levels of peer review. I've definitely been a reviwer on papers where the reviewers requested everything required and reproduced the experiment. That's extremely rare.
No, fast food is actually just disgusting lab-made pseudo-food, if you’re accustomed to fresh, whole, real food.

I loved fast food growing up, but after a couple year stint eating only fresh foods, I went back and literally couldn’t stomach it anymore. It tastes good going down. (At the time) I had no conditioning or preconceived beliefs that it was disgusting, but within an hour my stomach felt queasy and I threw it up. After half a dozen times experiencing that, I gave up on fast food entirely.
If the country in question has a good track record of punishing judges, prosecutors, and LEA, then it would be abolishing the death penalty _de facto_, as no-one would take that sort of risk over just imprisoning the person for life.

If the country does not have a good track record, it doesn't really change anything.
I think this is an excellent comment. What makes me very sad is that during the past 14 months the divide between those who own assets and those who don't has reached gargantuan proportions.

I mean, in my raging inferno of a housing market, over the past couple of years home prices have easily doubled. So a 400k house from 2018 now sells for 800k. Yes, if I want to move to another house in my area I'll pay similarly astronomical prices, but that just means it's about a wash for me, and of course I have many more options like moving to a cheaper locale or a cash out refi.

But if I (or my parents) don't already own a home, it means my chances of ever owning a home in my area just went to about zero. People made vastly more money just sitting around in their houses in the past couple years than I made in my job as an "essential" worker over the past decade.

I just don't see how this ends well.
Doesn’t the US use it’s money and influence to further its interests? many heinous and hurtful outcomes are facilitated by such funding around the world. That would include overturning a democracy in Iran and putting it on a course for the governance it has today.

Sapphire Rapids is not a product name, it is a code name for a family of processors, so the more appropriate comparison is
"Sicilian with Firestorm and Icestorm cores" rather than "iPhone 12."
There's a context implied, but not explicitly stated here.

Being "blind to race" means that the context in which the other person exists is being ignored. Seeing things like race and gender mean that you are keeping context in mind when interacting with people.

Systemic racism isn't necessarily about your personal intent, but it is about the results of your actions. Being blind to race effectively results in supporting the racist status quo. Being blind to sexism effectively results in supporting the sexist status quo.

The current default for American society is white. PoC have a different lived experience, and white people don't often know what it is like to have that lived experience. Similarly, richer people lack an understanding of what poverty implies about the lack of choices.

There are a number of axes where discrimination exists, and being blind to those axes means that you support the discriminatory position in practice.

I fail to see how an economic sanction towards an authoritarian regime that ends up having a greater impact upon its people than on the regime itself will somehow fix said regime's mistreatment of minorities.

I come from Venezuela, I have family in Cuba. I know what economic sanctions look like and what they do against dictatorships. Hint: they do nothing, because they're not going to abide by your rules or meet you in the middle.
Here is a WASM build you can try in the browser with the smaller models:

You don't work in IT, I suppose?
I agree with you, though it is still a little soul crushing. Obviously making big bucks and providing for your family is more important than debating some cancel culture social justice warrior at work who’ll never be convinced anyway, but listening to some eye rolling inducing faff every day and feeling like if you just told the truth you’d be fired makes you feel weak after a long time. Especially if you vehemently disagree just as strongly as they think what they think.

Being honest and disagreeing would not be as heroic as refusing to “just go along with the nazis”, but just ignoring them is also a little harder than ignoring some crazy preacher on the street. It’s an awkward middle ground that just slowly erodes your soul and I find myself looking for friends as outlets to moan to when I hear something particularly ridiculous. But I absolutely hate feeling weak that I need to remain silent, or feeling like I’m in the damn French resistance or something when I actually have pretty moderate views. Worst of all? I say what I think to people who I respect enough as adults to be able to take it. But when I remain silent it’s basically because I think they’re emotionally too immature to take it.
This is near to his point. Salary is trading ‘wealth’ for ‘money’. You could literally build that house to achieve ‘wealth’ faster than you can earn it by saving money from salary.

This essay helped me understand how I made this mistake over well more than that decade you fear. The 80-90% saved from two decades of engineering salary did absolutely nothing to get me closer to debt-free housing security. Money is amazing when you see it for the first time, but it ends up being worthless. Investments too - risk of unmitigated loss for an individual investor is structurally greater than the potential for post-tax gain.

So he’s saying to build wealth, not money, and definitely avoid status games. (But we’re here posting, so, failing that last one spectacularly.)
Maybe research that cannot be replicated ought not be pursued? Aren’t there better directions for a society’s calorie outputs?

The death penalty should be abolished, end of discussion. If even a single innocent person is murdered, then an obscene and heinous crime has been committed by the state.
No that’s money. You need to read the article. He freely admits you can’t win that game.
