Interesting. I never noticed that because I've always used List or Icons as the default view in Finder (Command+1 and Command+2).

Personally, I'd recommend just not using the Column view. It seems pretty janky compared to the other options.

For what it's worth, Command+[ and Command+] will move back/forward between folders, just like Safari and elsewhere.

Holding down Shift with those commands will move between tabs in Finder.
Couldn't have summed it up better if I tried. Rust is an awesome language but at the end of the day it's a systems language. As such it's not particularly suitable for writing just any type of application. Seems it shares one of my many problems with javascript: The fact that everything is being written and re-written in javascript(even if there are different reasons for both). As I've said a million times, "just because you can, doesn't mean you should". The endless Arc<Mutex<_>> is a symptom of it. In larger application this turns into an endless hell of read/write locks and sooner rather than later it blows up straight into your face. Which is further amplified by the somewhat recently introduced async/await. And let's not overlook the many incompatible tokio versions and the fact that tons and tons of crates use different versions of tokio: Just as everything looks buttery smooth, BOOM: thread 'main' panicked at 'not currently running on the Tokio runtime.' Damn it... Awesome... Which one is it this time...

On the subject of python, I think Rust has a very powerful niche it could take: slightly modifying an old Google philosophy(which they can't stick to anymore for a million and one reasons of course): "Python where we can, Rust where we must". To my mind it could be a very pleasant recipe for a large number of startups.
It's acting "correctly", it just turns out that I tend to move my mouse around the center of the card while I'm reading it, which makes it super obnoxious.

The Chia network is heavily pre-mined. The Chia organization controls much of the currency. They plan to share the pre-mined coins with investors in exchange for real dollars.

This isn't a secret. It's part of their "business whitepaper": https://www.chia.net/assets/Chia-Business-Whitepaper-2021-02...

Investors trading their brand recognition for discounted pre-mined coins that they can flip into the exchanges is a quick and easy way to make money on these projects.

>That means to the extent you believe the "prop them up" part of the theory, you must also believe that most wealth concentrations arise more from things like theft, and less from things like value creation. My experience has been that this seems untrue today and almost certainly becomes more untrue every year (but I do understand that reasonable observers may disagree).

It is pretty well demonstrated and accepted that both IQ and talent (in anything, business, sports, art, whatever) have a Gaussian (normal) distribution, but wealth does not. It has a Pareto (power) distribution.

So there is something more than just offering value (ie. the results of talent or IQ or even work) that contributes to the accumulation of wealth.

Some of this has to do with the "Snowball Effect" where it is easier to make more money at a faster rate, the more money you have.

But even that doesn't really get to the heart of the issue.

There is another surprising effect at play!

In a non-sophisticated version (ie. the version everyone is taught in the beginning economics classes) of economics, there is an assumption that someone pays money that they believe is equal to value of some thing that they want. And if this is true, no wealth actually changes hands. You paid $X for something that is worth $X to you ... and maybe others and the person that sold it to you got $X of value which is what they thought it was worth selling it at. The seller is richer by $X but you are richer by something worth $X, so it is really a wash.

But we have to pretend in this case that both sides know the worth of the item in question. And this is almost never the case!

If we allow for whoever "misjudges" the value to be the "loser" and the other to be the "winner" in the exchange as measured by one or the other getting a little more value out of the deal than the other, then something magical happens.

If you play out this scenario (and you can model it yourself in your favorite software) with many "agents" doing these deals, and if you give every single transaction a completely blind and fair chance of 50/50 of being the winner and loser in the transaction, and you do this many, many times ... one agent will always end up with ALL the money in the end!

And this is without theft (as the gp comment insinuated) and is also without there necessarily being any "real value" created (as you suggested).

There is very interesting and recent research in this area[1].

BTW, I used to think more like you than the GP comment (and I still don't really agree with the GP comment) but if you take the time to look into the research and understand the math behind what is going on, it is a real eye-opener and a different perspective on why wealth inequality seems to show up in basically every type of economy and society given enough time.

Agree, I think the same thing happened when Disney acquired Fox film studios. Disney is notorious for low pay and alot of the fox execs/creatives were extremely worried after the acquisition, same thing going on with with Amazon/MGM.

I know amazon paid a fortune for Tolkien's Silmarillion TV rights and we haven't seen a single thing about that situation. My big worry is amazon screws around with the Bond franchise and ruins it, it seems to be doing extremely well with top directors and large blockbuster returns.
They are the dominant player in only a few of those, and even in those dominant markets, they are far from a monopoly.

Now, if they use a dominant position in one industry to gain advantage in another, that is a different story, but also a harder thing to show.
They can enter new industries well below market cost and destroy all of the existing businesses. They then soak up everything. In the end, everything becomes Amazon.

They did it to open source, bookstores, retail.

Maybe you don't see the end goal, where every restaurant is Amazon and you rent your home from Jeff Bezos?

Maybe you're not worried and you trust these people?

Maybe you don't want to compete and you just want to be an employee?

I don't know. But this is wrong. You can't compete with this, you're forced to work with it. It decreases degrees of freedom and angle of attack for everyone else.

From Amazon's perspective, their moat becomes an ocean. That's hard to swim in.
If they do make a new series, I think I care more about Walter getting a cameo than literally anyone else from the original show
How does that work if you want to grow your hobby or group?

While I am by no means an expert user, and I have a lot to learn on how to properly use inkscape, I used it for creating some figures for my thesis and it really came in handy. Congratulations on the release!
If you want to have a discussion about bicyclists and road safety, that's perfectly fine. If you want to pass laws, that's political, of course.

But many people - myself included - don't like it when authors drag in disparate references to hot button topics from the national discourse. For example....

>> First, a thesis: Americans driving cars kill Americans riding bikes for the same reason that Americans in pandemics refuse to wear masks, and Americans who love assault rifles get panicky at the mention of gun control, and Blue Lives Matter types freak at any suggestion that cops should try to kill fewer Black people.

For an article about that's supposed to advance the cause of bicyclist safety, it's not only inflammatory, it's also outlandish and hurts the credibility of the author.
I'm planning on sending this link over to our warehouse guys. We sell containers of many small things.

And... I could probably build something like this. Not as nice. And not in four hours. It'd take more than four hours of meetings to get it started. The app's price is well worth it, if we can work it into our processes.
They don't want to close the loopholes, because the loopholes give American companies an advantage over foreign companies.
Map/filter closures almost always never actually enclose variables, instead just acting on the elements from the iterator. They’re basically a one-off nameless function. On the other hand, closures used for spawning threads almost always enclose variables from the outer context. That’s an important distinction that makes them seem quite different even if they’re the same underneath.

When I started with Rust, I actually thought that the common

spawn(|| …)

syntax was something special, not just a closure with no variables.
I don't know if the change I just made to the title makes it better or not, but I think it at least captures my intent better.

That's an interesting case. This won't solve your whole problem, but you should be able to make the key the hash of the string and then have a HashMap<u64, Weak<String>>. I feel like there's a pretty solution where you stick the whole map in a Rc and stick that in every interned string. Then strings can remove/lookup themselves. To make that work you'll want some sort of concurrent hash map.
Then you could just implement your own client. There are already dozens of not hundreds of FTP clients for any device you could imagine, if you don't like the ux take an open source one and clean it up a bit.
I’m of the opinion that all you should validate is that there is an @, the text to the right side (of the final @) is a well-formed dotted DNS domain, and that there exists at least one (non-whitespace) character to the left of the (final) @.

Yes, I can craft garbage emails that pass this quite easily, but who cares? If I’m crafting fake emails I can make valid ones too. This rule ensures I typed the @ and the dot in my domain (we really don’t need to support dotless email domains and it’s better to catch “foo@gmailcom”) and it won’t reject all the weird random emails people might have.
Inheritance was invented for performance reasons [1]. It was not conceived for pure code organization, so in way it is arbitrary as any other solution that could have brought performance gains for the original garbage collector. Inheritance is an "intellectual accomplishment" as other accomplishments, that will incur into issues if applied blindly, so not having it is not an issue per se. On the contrary, today's widely accepted view of inheritance is to rather use composition instead of it [2].

R does have inheritance by the way, not as you will see frequently on "general purpose" programming languages, thing R is not.

> This is a terrible idea put forward by people with no grasp of either economics or history.

Thanks for the compliment. I guess you must know better than Picketty (he doesn't exactly say what i said, but does promote very aggressive taxation of capital, which is the same goal more gently said). Go study for yourselve before insulting right and left. I know i did, i'm reading monthly issues of "le monde diplomatique".

> First off you can't buy a home in some parts with that kind of money.

Perhaps instead of 1M$ you'd prefer if i say "the equivalent of 100K ton of wheat at retail price"? Obviously i'm talking from the perspective of my local living standard which is west-european 500M people city.

> No offense, but I've never been interested in living in the US

None taken, me neither.

> So if you chase away everyone with wealth you'll be left paying 100% of the taxes instead of 60% and with no jobs to pay them with. Good luck with that!

Ok so that's the only argument of your comment. It has been debunked time and time again that for individuals, fleeing a country because of taxes is minimal. Corporations do that. And it can be fought by taxing international transactions (which every sane economy but the EU does anyway). Yes, in the end, it becomes a frontal fight between the financial and industrial establishment and your local economy, which obviously will need some negotiation because they can hurt you, but let it be clear that without them, it would work quite well (and in reverse, in my economy, it would be quite hard to practically be capitalistic). I don't even want to eradicate capitalism, i'd just want to not mainly depend on it for living and tip the balance to a much more reasonable state.

> Look to Soviet Russia, Cuba, Venezuela for examples of how that plays out.

You realize that my arguments were communist-ish? You're not gonna scare me off pointing at these countries! Obviously things went bad because the liberals virtually control the world, so these countries had to fight for everything, which breaks at some point. And obviously i'm not defending dictatorship (and please note i'm not using this strawman of the numereous capitalistic dictatorship against you).
No. This is a problem in a lot of places.

See: Every video game ever made with audio settings locked behind a 2 minute unskippable cutscene.
Competition is great(for innovation, pay, creativity) anything that interferes with competition, is a bad net for society and good for a very small number of incumbent players.
I can guarantee you that the sandbox can be circumvented if you can just run an IPA on the device. iOS has a humongous set of APIs and that attack surface is impossible to protect properly.

Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to have an iPhone I can install anything on - but there is _no_ way I would ever install anything from the open internet on the same device use to read my email or log in to my bank.
Fair enough. I could be over-extrapolating.
That would just entice other states especially states who side is being banned to enforce it too. I couldn't imagine this going over well.
I use this all the time (I call it $EXEC instead), and have gotten into the habit of starting all my scripts with EXEC=echo and put it on every command that does any file changes. It has saved my bacon many times.

It doesn't work all the time as the previous poster noted, but it is very low friction which is especially important when writing quick throw-away scripts.
Caps are a mandatory safety part. That thing could have cored you.
Looks like some nice improvements.

I'd be great if they supported direct use of CMYK in addition to the default screen-space RGB mode.

And yes, I understand Inkscape is more illustration than Desktop Publishing, but still...

Until then there's Scribus.
This starts to become a little bit repetitive, so I'll keep it short: no share modal, no Android/iOS, not self-hosted
I agree overall. In my particular case, my employer won't let me have Python for fear I will do things with it. But it is perfectly ok for me to RStudio with 2 million useful extensions that will do similar things. For better or worse, sometimes the tools we use are the tools we are left with.

And I am saying this as a recent RStudio convert. I love how easy it makes some otherwise hard things. I hate the sheer amount of hoops you have to jump through to make some stuff work.

But it works and I am definitely not an engineer.
Iterators? Nope. You can happily live in "for x in foo" land without ever touching map/filter/collect.

> might be my bias coming from a more functional background before learning Rust

This is exactly the problem. The people I'm dealing with are coming from "imperative land" and haven't had a functional background. Someone stepping up to Rust as "C with memory safety" does not have any of that functional background.

Please do remember that a "closure" is built on a lot of prior abstractions. What is a "scope"? What is "variable capture"? What is "heap" and "stack"? Why does that matter here and not normally?

No programming language is only used by experts, and Rust is no exception.

The issue is that "spawn" smacks you with a bunch of that baggage all at once.
Stargate is actually on the brink of returning. And that's super exciting. Amazon may give it that extra disposable money push needed.

Some newer developments you may have missed:

* Stargate Origins aired in 2018 [1]

* Brad Wright/Joseph Mallozzi are actively working to get a new project off the ground [2] and are looking to tap original cast members (to bootstrap)

* A new Stargate 4X strategy game was just announced [3]

Actually, I just played with it some more, and you know what it is? My brain knows the mouse is controlling it, so while reading, I'm unconsciously trying to find a middle spot to put the mouse in a vain attempt to make it sit flat, which has the effect of causing nonstop wobbling.

Oh.. yeah, malicious actors will definitely have easy pickings with the outdated iBook I connected to a firewalled internet-only wifi AP for an hour or so, and haven't powered on in close to a year. Perfect opportunity for the elite hackers that were just chomping at the bit for me to connect an outdated device to the internet, that doesn't have access to my LAN or anything else of mine.

You understand anyone, anywhere is great target for a malicious actor, right? Unless every single piece of software on every piece of hardware on their network is fully patched and up to date, and doesn't contain any zero-day vulnerabilities, of course.

What point do you think I apparently helped prove? Are you referring to software entropy? The Wikipedia article you adjacently linked suggests that software bugs will only increase with every change, unless specifically mitigated - "as a system is modified, its disorder, or entropy, tends to increase".
You can also drag and drop files/folders from Finder into a Terminal/iTerm window. That'll expand to the full path in the terminal.

>Apple were forced to make their parts accessible and available in the aftermarket?Vs the carbon footprint of the extra manufacturing effort and having to set up distribution channels for these parts?

This is not accurate. Apple doesn't make the parts. Apple doesn't "set up distribution channels" for parts. These already exist. Apple buys it on the market. What Apple then does is force the parts suppliers to only sell to them via exclusivity arrangements. We would like for repair shops to also purchase be able to purchase these parts so they can extend the life-time of these devices.

>I just don’t see the sustainability argument. I don’t think any large number of people would suddenly say they want to keep their slow, heat-generating Intel MBPs if they were more repairable. The upgrade cycle will always be the upgrade cycle.

Phones, like other consumer electronics get dropped, bumped, damaged. This can happen in the first week of ownership, in the second week, or at anytime after that. The idea that you should just scrap it and buy the next model is ridiculous.

This is nowhere even close to what most people are talking about in this thread. I hate to have to say it, but you really seem to be arguing in bad-faith here.

Lower marriage rate correlate with poorer results. If you change that. Half expenses and double incomes they could fix this but I doubt we will fix that trend.
The tractor example is great, and many cyclists make brazen moves as a result of this right away.

Interestingly, I feel more brazen when riding a bicycle than my (very slow, non-freeway) motorcycle. Maybe the satisfaction that I’m legally in the right when it comes to such things as right-of-way gives me a false sense of confidence?

In any case, I wish the US would do more to create safe, adequate options for bike travel.
Can someone port this amazing free design app to the iPad and make it work with Apple Pencil please? It will free us from Adobe's bubble.
It's a really annoying proxy to determine the default configuration :(. There's plenty devices with multiple channels that benefits from the increased merging possible with a scheduler - particularly around writes, where a lot of consumer SSDs are weak. And conversely, there's plenty workloads on single queue devices that are hurt by the scheduler and some of the other heuristics that trigger for single queue devices...
In what branch of maths or science is (1,0) + (1,2,3,4,5,6) even defined? That operation shouldn't make sense to anyone; it is adding vectors of different dimensions.

The result should probably be vector promotion then (2,2,3,4,5,6). (2,2,4,4,6,6) is not a good answer.
Whether or not the scientists fell ill seems unimportant compared to the recently leaked document "The Unnatural Origin of SARS and New Species of Man-Made Viruses as Genetic Bioweapons." It's like someone wants us discussing something else.

Out of curiosity, would you draw a large distinction between using the word "politics" or "culture" to describe the connection? I suspect that what some are describing as "political" may thought of by others as a disconnect and disagreement between cycling culture and driving culture. Solving this disconnect through political force may indeed be one solution, but it is far from the only solution. Just speculation on my part.
I've lived in Fort Lauderdale which is sometimes called the world's yachting capitol. After seeing my first boat show I was actually kind of shocked by the number of people in the "own a large yacht" wealth bracket.
I'm proud of my gayness insomuch as it's adversity I've overcome and it's given me a perspective on the world as a minority that had a not been gay I might not have had.

I'm proud of the things being gay has brought me, the accomplishments from it, the journey - that's what pride is actually about, celebrating that journey, those accomplishments, the community we formed to overcome adversity.

There is something valuable in being different than the norm, because of the perspective it does indeed bring you, and it's okay in my book to feel pride about that.

My hope is one day, there won't be a need for pride anymore, we're not there yet, but maybe in my lifetime.
