Sometimes an obvious thing needs to be brought up as context for a future statement. His reasoning there is blatantly wrong.

And omitting the word "obvious" wouldn't make the statement any less obvious. Wouldn't his explanation demand he cross out any basic true statements, no matter how you worded them?

There are good arguments for avoiding the word "obviously" in many circumstances... but I don't buy that argument.
Fully agree that impact x likelihood = risk, although I'd extend it beyond dollars. Impact can include reputation, health, etc. Certainly these could be measured using cash-value as a proxy, but this risks chasing the wrong metric.

I also recognise that "when a measure becomes a target it ceases to be a good measure", and cash as the bottom line risks increasing this tendency.

Too idealistic, probably :)

I'm calculating it on part time hours because that's what this thread is about - how employers keep people as part time in order to avoid giving them health care benefits.
Don't get me started with the (non-English) usage of "half-seven" to indicate either half past six or half past seven, depending on some non-obvious cultural factor.
Yeah, completely agree on all your points. It's a crowded, crowded space.

I'm playing with a design using some decks of cards; Twine seems like it has the right amount of functionality to manage a few different decks without having to print them out. The Twine app is then just a few buttons to draw from different decks, and is really easy to hand off to players. (not that I actually have playtesters at this point, or anything worth playtesting beyond my housemates. :P )
"not" is an adverb. I don't know how you'd go about avoiding it.

Huh, I was told growing up (in the USA) that it was called this because it was the duration of a soldier's tenure at a fort, so literally a fort-night. Searching online now, I can find literally nothing to back up this (clearly incorrect) etymology anywhere, every single source says fourteen nights. Did anyone else learn this?

Of course, something using C as a target language can be a substantial compiler. But not everything that outputs C is in the special category of taking "C with classes" to "C without classes".

My root comment is strictly about the initial impetus and proof-of-concept implementation, not ISO C++20.

Oh look, here is a quote from Stroustrup's HOPL paper about the history of C++:

In October of 1979 I had a pre−processor, called Cpre, that added Simula−like classes to C running and in March of 1980 this pre−processor had been refined to the point where it supported one real project and several experiments.

I think, if it's okay for Stroustrup to say "preprocessor" (and even put "pre" in the thing's name), it's okay for me.

Thanks for the details! I just came here to post them, because I found them interesting. I certainly didn't realize that the image was just added nor that I would have the chance to thank the contributor.
And here I was thinking that undesirable jobs have to pay more to attract employees.

Instead, because the power relationship between companies and employees is imbalanced towards companies, who can afford to not hire a few employees while individual employees can't afford to starve, these employees have to accept suffering for a pittance because hey, there's a slight risk of inflation (while companies have been bailed out to the tune of a few trillion).
It also adds information. Specifically, that it wasn’t the lack of awareness that led to this situation repeating. This, we should focus our efforts not just on whistleblowing, but on figuring out the gap between the whistle and effective action.
That one has English usage too! "Half seven" is common in British English to mean half past seven. But yes, as you allude, it's a source of confusion for Danish, German, and other foreigners in the UK, some of whom speak a language where "half seven" means 6:30 instead.
> Please don’t generalize to all poor people because you know at least 10 poor people. It’s not your place to speak on their behalf.

We all have a right to speak. I also suggest you have an open mind as these are topics I've experienced and then further researched. How is it your place? I've shared my experience being poor and what I have seen. I try to share what personal research and experience has taught me.

> Why should I expect that hospitals will drop their bill 80-90% after I go in? My expectation is that bill collectors will try to get reimbursed for as much of the bill as they can. This article mentions about half a million went bankrupt in 2019 due to medical bills.

I used to work at a medical billing service, they managed tens of millions in monthly billing (with millions of accounts annually). I personally used to reduce bills for hospitals by 80-90%, typically for hundreds of people a day (I was one of many). If you speak with a hospital and are below a certain income, they will reduce your bill. It's subsidized by those with insurance, hence the high medical costs nationally. Typically, insurance is paying 3-20x the medical procedure cost; medicare/medicaid pays around 20-50% of what insurance will pay.

> You mention America being a land of opportunity, but now that I’m self employed, I’m looking at places outside of the US to persue entrepreneurship. This is partly due to the sky high medical costs here.

I mean, do what suits you. But I find this interesting, I spend ~$9k a year for some really great health insurance (my family included in this), with potentially $5k out of pocket. I can also tune it (unlike taxes) and could really only spend $1-2k a year with a potential for $20k out of pocket. I did that for many years, because I was healthier.

Currently, I receive far better treatment than the nationalized healthcare in the EU for instance (particularly the UK or Ireland, where I was considering moving). I also have the potential to make 5x what I would for my profession in the EU. That more than makes up for the differential.

and I don't think that's even been sidelined to the degree that people argue (as the article points out the ACLU did take up numerous free speech issues including the NRA or even Trump's social media ban), but one thing ought to be recognized I think.

There is a big difference however between the traditional old American left largely coming out of an academic, fairly elite milieu, and the much more diverse left today.

For people like Chomsky who used to defend the right to Holocaust denial say, it's a very abstract, intellectual debate. For a lot of Asian working class people, proliferation of hate-speech is a very real threat today. I don't think this tension is new either. Even during the civil rights era, there were marked differences between black activists (or even militant groups) and the public left-wing intellectuals.

Equality is not offensive and a left-wing value but today it is more obvious that there is a tension between formal equality in front of the law and genuine equality in the real world. And because there is now more voices in politics, the left is changing.And so is the right by the way, whose elite values are very, very far removed from the ordinary voter.

The use of volatile is typical here. It allows the ring buffer to be used from interrupts, as long as you have one reader and one writer at a time.

I haven't checked the code for correctness, but in a typical ring buffer implementation intended to be used in interrupts, you would make the read and write pos volatile.

To write, you put the value in the array, and then advance the write position. To read, you copy a value out, and then advance the read position. Volatile ensures that if a read is interrupted by a write or vice versa, the entire operation is still atomic. Without volatile, the compiler has more freedom to reorder memory access.
I’ve just read it; now I’m curious: are you still using your original solution?

Investment income rolls over into total income tax, it is not possible to add those separately.

They address that with a bit of a hack.

> One of the problems of patching code using ast package of Python is that it loses all the formatting and comments of the original source code. This can be solved by making the patch script a little smarter. Instead of having it unparse the entire patched AST and write that to disk, we can make it unparse only the nodes it modified and insert the modified code at the corresponding line number in the file. The ast nodes have lineno attribute that can be used to retrieve the line number of the file to be injected the patched code with.

Because you can imagine the incentives if a company had to pay for health insurance for a part-time worker who works 10 hr per week?

All those part time jobs would disappear since what kind of employer pay $5-10k per year in insurance premium for an employee who earns $600 per month before taxes?

And you might say “great! Who cares about part time work?” and you’d be wrong, plenty of people don’t need or can do full time work.

The authors mentions completed transformation on a 150,000 line codebase. When you ask about scale, what concerns do you have in mind?

The author mentions that transformation back to source from ast, of course, doesn't include format information. However, python's ast include source line numbers, which they use to only rewrite the portions of the file affected by their rewrite.
It's just you. Assuming there is a "render a view" mechanism, neither of those statements is clear about whether mailers are a way to use it or an alternative to it. And it's not clear from this text whether there even is a single "render a view" mechanism to begin with!

It needs clear wording, perhaps like "this is a wrapper around" or "this is an alternative to" or "this is one of the" followed by more detail.
MediaWiki (the software running wikipedia) has this queuing feature already, it's called pending changes (edits from IPs/new users require review before going live): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Pending_changes

It is often used in non-english Wikipedias as default for all articles, on enwiki however only a very limited number of articles are protected in this way.

However review guidelines usually don't ask for a check of correctness, but against spam and other obviously inappropriate content.

It’s not. Rather, it’s release notes for a new version (“v8”) that mention a new dark mode theme.

It is easy to produce very brittle code by assuming a premise that allows one to rationalize being clever.

I don't think it's messy. Year-Month based version scheme is most recognizable one. What's bad for Windows (or Microsoft) is that they think the version shouldn't duplicated to previous product (like Windows Embedded POSReady 2009 or Office 2010) so they changed to 20H2. Such duplication should be expected from the beginning.
I think so, too.
I don't think it's at all peculiar to American English. Fortnight solves only one of the six situations spoken of in the article (twice a week/month/year, once every two weeks/months/years).

It's good for that, but we're in the same position Americans are if we're trying to talk about something happening every two years.
Here's a gift to you: the opposite of "here in Australia we do something" isn't "only Americans don't do it".

> The ACLU exists to defend civil rights regardless of how those rights might be used. They do not (or at least did not previously) exist in order to further a political agenda.

Again, what if a party or politician is a significant threat to civil rights, and necessary to the defense of those rights is the defeat of that party? I think the ACLU would be abandoning its duties if they stood helpless on principle. Probably they should make clear their reasoning.

> Your freedoms should _never_ be contingent on the expression (or lack thereof) of a particular political ideology.

I'm not sure how that is relevant to the question. Also, there are exceptions to everything, including free speech and political ideologies. First, anything can be called a 'political ideology'; those words are not a shield. Second, if your political ideology is to seize power and end civil rights, you don't have unlimited right to promote it (especially if you are a threat to succeed); my tolerance for your rights doesn't extend to you taking away my rights.

Scientists have a hard time figuring out the cause, maybe because the slow vague onset of the disease?

When I first had my symptoms which made diadnosis possible I already had a couple of demyelinated lesions. Did they show up the days before? Or years ago? Who knows.

You cannot do daily mri scans of a large enough population to catch even 1 patient at exactly the beginning of their disease, and even if you catch it, how can you gather useful information non-invasively?

Anyways, I try reading scientific papers, and avoid the overhyped “eat this to cure your MS” type articles.

They are so confident in everything, but of the 100 of real studies I’ve looked at, almost none of them had any surefire way to slow disease progression, some of the findings even contradict popular belief.

For example eating whole grains, drinking wine in moderation and drinking coffe may have a small positive effect, instead of cutting out all gluten.

Or it might just be a currelation in a way that wine drinkers have a higher socioeconomical status, which they tried correcting for, but they missed some unknown factor anyway?

Just try doing the regular healthy lifestyle; good food, some moderate excercise, no stress.. Because you can still get all the other lifestyle diseases ontop of MS as anyone else, and as we are more vulnerable we need to be more careful.
