I don't see this. The original post was just extraordinary naive.

"Germany already produces enough renewable energy to sustain all residential use."
Maybe, a short look at the numbers look inconclusive. Besides that Germany relies on its neighbors to stabilize the net (speak nuclear!), it is unclear for me what the numbers mean. "Residential" use. Including heating? Basically everybody heats with oil or gas in Germany. You would also to take into account production costs (energy) of solar and wind energy harvesting systems. Please also see: "The institute’s Energy Charts project does not include data on the amount of power the generating facilities consume themselves to operate, or the power German industry produces and consumes without it being fed into the public grid."

The is an incredibly stupid publication from an MIT professor, claiming that energy efficiency is increasing (we produce more with less), based on statistical data. I think he did not understand the numbers. The US, like Germany is just exporting energy hungry productions to China. Consequently the numbers show exactly this. I emailed him the data an ask for an explanation based on his thesis but he did not reply.

"There is no real physical limitation to achieving 100% renewables despite your “argument”.

Either you did not read, or did not understand the link I posted. For the sake of the argument, lets assume that Germany CAN produce 100% of the required energy by renewable energy. What you don't take into account (besides exporting energy hungry productions): German does not only have to produce 100% of the energy, she has also to compensate for the GROWTH of energy consumption. Please read the article again. And this is something that is likely physically impossible.

"These are both very shallow articles."

Weird. I don’t know why one would accept those then given that work is going to be on average more dull, with worse work life balance. The companies I’m talking about are Two Sigma, Citadel, and similar.
You're not wrong. This state is getting worse all the time. A little kid was shot an killed because his mom flipped someone off for cutting her off. The kid's last words were something like. "mommy. my tummy hurts."

Last I checked, they still hadn't caught him. This is not a state where more guns us going to make things better. It's a state that very clearly represents the temperature of the country: financially strong liberal strongholds arm wrestling with the government around them. (Abbott and Patrick don't hold back on how much they hate Austin.) We're just going to shoot at each more and scream Castle Doctrine about it.

The deliverable here isn't the code, it's the output. If "check expected outputs" is a subjective step anyway, why not just check that the output of the code when run on the data is as expected and skip the test altogether?

This has nothing to do with censorship. He knows it won't survive a courtroom. This is just DeSantis doing the equivalent of virtue-signaling to his base.
This meshes well with some advice my audiologist gave me, too. I had suggested using earplugs to muffle the sounds that bother me, because they tend to be rather quiet. She advised against, over concerns that I would lose the ability to cope without earplugs, and that this could be a bigger problem in the long run than just working on developing more coping strategies.
CMake as a library with bindings for various scripting languages (e.g. Python) would make a lot of sense to me. Have the power of a proper scripting language and let the CMake library deal with generating the build system.

I once looked into extracting the CMake build system generation code and make it into a standalone library. But I soon realized that it’s not exactly a weekend project.

A small note on your LaTeX use: If you use \sin, the sin will be upright (instead of italics), which is considered standard use for math operators (other operators of the top of my had that also use this: tan, cos, log, dim, deg).

\DeclareMathOperator{\operator}{operator}

Vague bills that are sure to be challenged in court are pretty standard partisan fare. They're essentially win-win.

If you pass it, and it's upheld, you get to trumpet your victory.

If you pass it, and it gets struck down by the courts, you get to rally your base with how the courts are thwarting your agenda.

Bonus points if it's on an ephemeral enough topic that it would be impossible for it to "fail" post-implementation.
It seems to me online platforms need to be addressed by modern laws rather than shoehorn laws that applied to different (old) media.

It’s hard to say what the right balance would be. But just imagine if instead of the US, we were in Belarus. Or any other country with autocratic tendencies. Would we want the media to be one sided even if it’s controlled by oligarchs who would have clear selfish agendas?

What do we want when the pendulum swings the other way? The same top down private decision on permissibility?

I think there is a reason the likes of Roger Daltrey, John Cleese and others are weary of tech censorship. If these tools had been available in the 70s and 80s the world would be a different place.

My overall point is your examples were not as simple as we see them today.

As for what I believe the paper commits, is it adjusts the definition of a problem to fit their research and conclusion. That's not something I've done.
I don’t disagree with the overall message or choice of examples behind this post, but one paragraph stuck out to me:

> Martin says that it should be possible to read a single source file from top to bottom as narrative, with the level of abstraction in each function descending as we read on, each function calling out to others further down. This is far from universally relevant. Many source files, I would even say most source files, cannot be neatly hierarchised in this way.

The relevance is a fair criticism but most programs in most languages can in fact be hierarchized this way, with the small number of mutually interdependent code safely separated. Many functional languages actually enforce this.

As an F# developer it can be very painful to read C# programs even though I often find C# files very elegant and readable: it just seems like a book, presented out of order, and without page numbers. Whereas an .fsproj file provides a robust reading order.
It's not really true for Android either because the graphics drivers are mostly userspace and end up coupled with a lot of the vendor provided stuff.

Fuchsia has no GPL so it's unlikely any of the driver source will be available to you.
I've always found it funny how the most vocal detractors of deplatforming are generally right-learning politicians and pundits, some of whom have publicly stated how much they like Ayn Rand.

The irony here is that Rand pretty explicitly supports the right to deplatform people in The Virtue of Selfishness. Up until recently it was a common attitude in conservative political circles that forcing someone to publish content they disagreed with was itself the violation of a right. See below:

"The right of free speech means that a man has the right to express his ideas without danger of suppression, interference or punitive action by the government. It does not mean that others must provide him with a lecture hall, a radio station or a printing press through which to express his ideas. Any undertaking that involves more than one man, requires the voluntary consent of every participant. Every one of them has the right to make his own decision, but none has the right to force his decision on the others."

I struggle to find a single source that the American right likes to cite which would go in the opposite direction, given that more right-leaning conceptualizations of rights tends to be a freedom from as opposed to a freedom to right. Given this framework, social media companies have a freedom from providing a platform for ideas they find objectionable.
Nice Disney carve-out. I bet there was a specific phone call about he received to insert that provision.

On a slightly-related note: I do feel that the rules for platform moderation should be different between platforms that are geared towards children vs adults.

I wonder if the future holds an internet that's heavily segregated between the two groups? Maybe everyone will auto-graduate from kidFacebook to adultFacebook when they turn 18?
What I wish to happen is for the big companies to tell you what exactly you did wrong and give you the opportunity to appeal.

Also giants like Google should not break all your stuff if they consider you did something wrong on youtube.

A lot of managers seem to have an unshakeable convention that as soon as workers are no longer cattle-penned into an office that they'll turn into lazy slobs. As if the only thing stopping them from vegging out on the couch, eating ice cream and watching Jerry Springer during the work day is the watchful and benevolent gaze of their adult supervisors from across the open office floor plan.

Believe it or not, most professionals are actually still productive outside the panopticon. If anything, substantially more productive because of being in a pleasant environment of their choosing. The only reason I can think why so many refuse to accept this evidence is because a lot of middle managers add little value beyond daycare supervisor. Not all, but a lot.

Hmmm, well the first generation of a cloud providers offerings has to be the bare necessities (EC2, VPC, IAM RDS etc). Then you can start providing a second gen of services that use the first gen, like AWS's ECS, and then a third gen like Fargate.
One important thing to note which may be lost in the headline, this is for concealed carrying and not open carry. That said, as someone who in the past 5 years went through the process of getting licensed to carry in my state I think the mandatory "firearm safety" course was something interesting and honestly vital. While I want to avoid getting too far into the muddy waters of high profile "dumb civilian" incidents involving firearms, they all could have been avoided if people had paid more attention to this.

If you are considering carrying in a state with constitutional carry, please research the following. Civil liability in a situation where firearms are used, for instance if you discharge your weapon and damage a car, you are probably on the hook for that. There is no situation ever where your weapon should not be concealed and you aren't shooting someone directly. You should only fire your weapon if you can argue before court that your firing of that weapon was necessary to prevent you or someone else being killed or gravely injured. Don't be an idiot, avoid creating dangerous situations, even if you survive and stay out of prison they'll ruin your life. You pay your own legal fees regardless of if you were in the right.

No warning shots or fancy attempts to hit somebody in the legs rather than the center of mass, those could hit bystanders instead or result in a jam. Brandishing a weapon means someone else (including police) could assume you are an active shooter and shoot you. Ever showing your weapon or signalling you have a weapon means that should a bad situation arise, an active shooter would shoot you first likely before you could respond. Do not ever display you have a firearm in the form of bumper stickers on your car, your car will get robbed and now criminals have your guns. The same goes for your house.

In summary, keep the gun in your pants. Only remove it while firing into someone else's chest if there is no other option to prevent someone from dying or getting killed.

With all that said, while I theoretically agree with the idea of "constitutional carry", I'm not sure if I would have learned all of this if my state had this.

Python doesn't seem like a huge barrier to entry to me. CMake might be great in many ways, but the syntax is truly awful. It's just not intuitive to many people. I think due to how spacing works in CMake you can have incorrect things run and not fail. That's a huge issue, especially when onboarding people who aren't familiar with CMake.

Meson has some warts, especially around documentation but it's just easier and is just generally predictable. I've converted some CMake projects internally to meson and people were able to contribute and make changes with minimal learning and training, because the structure is intuitive. That means a lot.
> Until, of course you have to actually maintain this and has to chase down 3 or 4 levels of functions deep what is it that the code is actually doing.

The art is to chain your short functions like a paragraph, not to nest them a mile deep, where the "shortness" is purely an illusion and the outer ones are doing tons of things by calling the inner ones.

That's a lot harder, though.

But it fits much better with the spirit of "don't have a lot of args for your functions" - if you're making deeply nested calls, you're gonna have to pass all the arguments the inner ones need through the outer ones. Or else do something to obfuscate how much you're passing around (global deps/state, crazy amounts of deep DI, etc...) which doesn't make testing any easier.

They could have solved this with porting from single-threaded Emacs Lisp to Guile[1] or a proper Common Lisp[2]. Sadly, both initiatives didn't get enough steam. Someone, though, started to rewrite Climacs in SBCL from scratch[3].

I wouldn't call that unequivocal. Snopes re-wrote the original claim to say it was referring to the Ukrainian Government, and then said it was false. (The tweet did make some other claims, but they were discussed in a separate article).

As someone who uses both verbal alerts e.g. "passing on your left!" and bell dings, I've found that the human brain is quicker to process the "ding" than the verbal cue. At the relative speed of pedestrian vs. cyclist this matters. I think it's simply that "ding ding" is a standard alert with a preprogrammed response, whereas spoken stuff needs to be interpreted first.

My personal optimization is also to not make noise at all, if I can clearly and safely pass without warning i.e. the pedestrian is not moving erratically and there are no small children. On rare occasion this elicits anger from (usually elderly) pedestrians though.

Good question. Who knows, all I know is that it is time to really de-escalate relations between the big power blocks. At the same time Western democracies have to put limits on what totalitarian regimes, true and wannabe ones, are allowed to get away with. These things seem to be mutually exclusive so. I always thought the Putin is the most dangerous and cunning leader the world currently has. I also thought that this cunning would prevent him from doing anything stupid. Not so sure anymore about the last bit anymore, given with what he got away with so far.

Don't ask me what Western powers should do so. Given the loss in soft power in the last decade, throwing out human rights by the EU during the refugee crisis and ever since, the new alliance between Israel and Saudi Arabia, Trumps foreign policy, options seem to be limited.
