Linux could be a good choice for some medical devices, but certainly not those where any malfunction could result in the death of a patient. Linux isn't intended to be used for fault-tolerant computer systems, as such systems use specially designed hardware and operating systems.

The problem is that medical devices can literally kill when they malfunction (The Therac-25 is a great example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Therac-25)

I can’t tell whether you don’t understand how it works, or you are criticizing security guarantees which are not at all given. The hardness of the discrete logarithm problem is the guarantee for transaction integrity. The various other protocol mechanisms are the protections against double-spending.

No legal system has any relevance at all to discrete log, and very little to do with chain integrity. It may have something to do with availability or censorship, but not remotely as much as any other security or deposit. You may be talking about the markets that give it value denominated in fiat currency. This can also be done entirely securely without legal protection. The only relevant thing here for the legal system is the framework giving value to the fiat currency itself. The physical protection of mining equipment is relevant, but minimal in comparison to any other form of property. The supply of electricity, however, is extremely vulnerable, and requires a lot of physical protection. Yet, I don’t see anybody calling for removal of electricity tariffs for Bitcoin mining, so I can’t see the contradiction here. It would also be wonderful if the government would provide any asset protection or civil recourse for theft, loss, or fraud in cryptocurrency like they do for any other security. Crypto holders and speculators would love to pay for that. Sadly, no such protection is offered.

This is actually the biggest point. They don’t have any of the investor protections of legal instruments. All the politicians and courts and judges and lawyers and police and armies and aircraft carriers and nuclear warheads on earth can’t do anything for a crypto holder when something bad happens. Absolute zero.

I can’t see what your angle is. Where is this ‘regulatory capture’ coming from? Which bureaucrat is benefiting from this, and who is bearing the cost? Naively, we can assume that El Salvador believes they get more benefit by mere presence of Bitcoin holders than it costs them. Further, they believe that the benefit is so great, and the cost so little, that they should actually spend money trying to get them there instead of taxing them at whatever rate they could get out of them. I would love to see any facts that show how wrong they are, and how right you are, specifically how much it costs El Salvador to host Bitcoin holders in their country, versus the economic benefit from their spending.

But yeah, I get it, you don’t like crypto. I too have criticisms.

I won't buy Seagate hard drives unless I really can't avoid it. I missed this 3GB drive, but a while back I bought a Seagate 8TB SMR drive (ST8000AS0002) to store my backups on.

I was storing large files on it (just what it was designed for), each one with a par2 error correction file. Every now and again I would run the error correction, and it would usually find a few sectors that just returned the wrong data.

Small Business owner here in the service industry. Why am I on hacker news? I have a lot of friends who work in tech. I don't have time to put my thoughts into organized paragraphs but let me just make some bullet points of random thoughts:

1)Lots of workers in this industry suck as people: You pay them well, you treat them well, and they still back talk you and not follow the rules. Is it their upbringing, failed education system, drugs? Not sure - but this is the end result

2)Stop talking about this problem as if every company is the size of Amazon. Most small businesses in my industry make less than 1 million in sales.

3)People in this industry ARE milking unemployment. I asked the owners of nearby liquor and convenience stores: they cannot keep alcohol and lottery tickets in stock!

4)Especially in smaller towns: anyone with their head on their shoulder is got out of dodge. Before people were born, grew up, lived, worked, and died in their town. More and more so they leave now.

None of what you say is incompatible with GPT being able to understand these concepts a few generations down the line.

I mean, your central point is that GPT could not possibly understand these concepts because it only perceived them from text, not real life, but... that's kind of true of people too?

I can make observations and guesses about New York, even though I've never been in the US in my life. I can try to understand the hardships faced by minorities, even though I have never suffered from race or gender-based discrimination.

A huge part of everything we know about the world around us comes from information we got from Wikipedia, or TV shows, or Youtube. It's information GPT could be trained on.

You can always make a philosophical argument that even GPT-6 won't "really" what it's saying, but we have yet to see what the upper bound of GPT is given enough computing power. I'd expect most non-philosophical predictions about it can't do to be falsified within a few years.

I find it very easy to ignore the distinction between defending one's speech, and defending one's freedom-of-speech. ACLU's historical defense of freedom-of-speech is now regarded, very regrettably, as defense of the particular utterances being facilitated under that freedom.

It's not unambiguously true that freedom-of-speech itself is substantially responsible for anyone's loss of other rights. We can't even have a public conversation about this without freedom-of-speech, where all relevant ideas and evidence can be openly evaluated, unless there is essentially no gatekeeper (committee, policy, "filter", etc.) deciding on what is relevant or permissible speech. We will only have biased answers if we bias the discussion.

Further, even mere perception about the bias in the discussion (caused by censorship etc.) causes some people to disengage from the discussion altogether, and facilitates the "silo-ing" of groups of people who have little contact with each other. That is not a recipe for a functioning pluralistic society, and ultimately for peace itself.

If you change it slightly you can make it more readable:

def is_unique(elements):
unique_elements = set(elements)

has_only_unique_elements = len(unique_elements) == len(elements)
return has_only_unique_elements

The problem was using identifiers like "l", and trying to make everything a one-liner.

Adding a docstring or comment can help too.

Is that still "clever code" after these few changes? I would say no.

They can, but it's not necessary. There are lots of private hospitals in France and it works just fine

There are always going to be middlemen. Too few and resources are allocated inefficiently due to a lack of management. Too many and it's a waste of resources. The trick is to find the right balance

In my dialect of Brazilian Portuguese (Carioca) one would seldom hear "a outra sexta-feira" in an unqualified statement.

One would indeed say simply "sexta-feira" for Friday, and optionally "sexta-feira agora" (Friday now) if more precision is required, but for the Friday in the next week we'd use the set phrase "sexta-feira, sem ser essa, a outra" (Friday, not this one, the next), pretty much spoken as a single word ([sẽj̃se̯ˌɛsɐ̯ˈotrɐ̥])
Instead of using special tags to convey meaning, couldn't we just use special attributes? say, a div tag with an 'aria-role' attribute set to menu would indicate a menu, a div tag with an 'aria-role' attribute set to 'checkbox' would indicate a checkbox etc.

That would make creation of visual elements more versatile, keep the number of hacks to minimum (like the hidden input trick for checkboxes), and also make ARIA possible.
It’s interesting to me that this works for you. The way I understand English, the “simply” makes the question rhetorical and implies that you’re about to enlighten the person you’re talking to with something obvious that they’ve missed, which generally gets people’s hackles up and provides adversarial answers

I’d imagine the context you use it in matters a lot, especially if you follow it up with another question or a clarification (e.g. “I’m genuinely asking”/“I’m really not sure”), but if I wanted to express the meaning you’re using it for, I might just leave out the simply, or if I wanted to it come across less confrontationally, phrase it sans the “not”, as it’s a little negative
I've never used chrome, but have had a linux desktop for the past 20+ years and have run firefox for at least the past five years (whenever that full-page advert about firefox in the new york times came out, that's when I switched. I remember paying for my name to be included).

I've never ever thought "Firefox is slow", instead I think sometimes "the network is slow", or "this wifi is terrible". I imagine if people are using heavy web-applications maybe this is visible, but using gmail, slack, and similar sites everything works just fine. Sure it might be nicer if things were even faster, but the speed of my browser is not something I've ever thought about.

I often wonder why people have some different opinions of their browsers..

We’re All Paying for Someone Else’s 4-Hour Work Week, Not Ours
Because we get payed based on perceived value on the market and not based on utility, importance and certainly not based on positive impact. All of these things are incredibly hard to measure and I don't think there is a reasonable objective way to evaluate them.

The more people are willing and able to do a job, the less is the perceived marked value, especially if they are not organized in unions to assert their interests.

Now from what I know unions are generally frowned upon in the US for some reason or another (perhaps because of their obsession with capitalist ideology), and reports say that large corporations are actively oppressing the formation of unions.

So what is left is simply trying to avoid work and perhaps hoping that some companies will come around and provide reasonable working conditions and pay or to start businesses themselves, while trying to survive the bullying tactics of said companies.

Identities are the basis of social communities. The idea of "The more labels you have for yourself, the dumber they make you" is correct. But it ignores the fact that there is a minimum number of labels that all socially adapted humans must use to identify themselves. These labels can be religious, political, hobbies, character traits, etc.

You may label yourself as an "intelligent person" or a "hacker". Other people might choose to label themselves as a "dog person". It doesn't matter what the labels are. Everybody has to choose some number of labels and stick to them, at least for a while. The labels are what allow people to accomplish social tasks and form societies built on trust.

Keeping your identity small by using few labels is good advice. But it's important to recognize that the labels are like an oil that keeps the machine of society running

Is there any stable application for this? I do have an application with varying very high and very low incoming data packets I need to save. They can be really small json documents or have larger files attached (up to 10mb). Kafka would be a perfect fit, but the file size is too big, and saving every attachment first to a cloud storage bucket will cost a lot because of many STORE commands (i would like to merge the files before storing to reduce the cost).

Unfortunately, in most areas, low-wage workers get no contract whatsoever: YOu can pretty much be fired at any time for almost any reason except for a few federally protected ones. Those are easy to work around.

I'm not sure if going over one month does anything, and it most certainly doesn't do anything in a week: Some places will schedule folks around 40 hours for a couple weeks and then nearly nothing for a week to get the average down.
This suggests you don't commit transactions individually, but buffer them for some time and then write them to disk at once. There are plenty scenarios where you don't need all ACID properties, but in many cases what makes databases slow is adhering stringently to those ACID constraints.
Yes, but that wasn't really the point. The 65xx series was a result of Chuck Peddle initially proposing a drastically cost-cut design similar to the 68xx series from Motorola. When Motorola didn't want to do it, Peddle and other Motorola staff left for MOS Technologies to realise the design. So the simplicity of the 65xx had less to do with when it was released than with an explicit design goal to be extremely simple and cheap.
Fabulous, inspired by https://http.cat/ of course
For last Friday, we would probably use either "sexta-feira passada" (past Friday), which is more 'portable' among dialects, or "sexta-feira agora" qualified with a verb in past tense, or a time phrase. "sexta-feira agora" would mean this (next) Friday if unqualified.

1)
– Vocês vão se encontrar quando? (When will you meet?)

– Sexta-feira (Friday, this Friday)

2)
– Vocês vão se encontrar sexta-feira dia 15? (Will you meet on Friday the 15th?)

– Não, sexta-feira agora (No, this Friday)

3)
– Quando que você se encontrou com ele? (When did you meet him?)

– Sexta-feira (Last Friday)

4)
– Quando que você se encontrou com ele?

– Sexta-feira agora (Last Friday)

5)
– Quando que você se encontrou com ele?

– Sexta-feira passada (Last Friday)
My dad is also a farmer, and im impressed about the large range of knowlegde of all farmers, from nature to mechanic.
I think this problem is already for a long time, and there are many farmers that dont buy new tractors anymore for this reason, that they cannot repair the tractor anymore, and it can cost a lot of money because they cannot harvest, and are waiting for the tractor dealer.

But i think the same problem is for cars, you cannot e.g. repair your Tesla everywhere, this is also very closed.

Being drunk as a human is also not a good idea from a survival point of view given how often drunk people kill themselves doing stupid things.

> By your definition, even Python is concatenative, as is any language whose “main” is implicit and allows shadowing.

Not that it's worth arguing over a definition that's specifically marked as non-rigorous, but your statement is wrong, and Python is not concatenative under the definition presented above.

The definition is fairly clear: a language is concatenative if the concatenation of two programs p and q represents the program that computes the composite of the functions that p and q compute. We can turn this into a formal definition: if we let concat(-,-)denote concatenation, o denote function composition, and [x] denote the function that the program x represents, the requirement is that the equation

[concat(p,q)] = [q] o [p]

should hold for all programs p,q.

One would struggle to define the meaning of [-] for Python programs, much less prove that the equation above holds for some reasonable definition of the brackets [-]. (And if you could, then Python would be considered concatenative under your definition too)
