The problem with this is that there is zero evidence that the filtering and testing requirements correlate with actual doctoring skills. In fact there is evidence against this.

Think of it this way; in Europe it is far easier to become a doctor then in the US due to significantly less stringent requirements. However in Europe and other 1st world countries treatment and other quantitative measures on quality of medical care beat the US by a far margin.

It shows that the "unpleasantness" is pushing something to the right of the bell curve. However it is clearly not pushing "effective medical diagnosis and treatment" to the right of the curve as Europe is beating us on that front with far less stringent requirements.

> You have an identity entity off-chain (say a government body) that you get some kind of cryptographically signed piece of information that doesn't relay any of your personal information on-chain but allows entities on-chain to know that you are in good standing with the off-chain identity service?

Why use blockchain? Why not just have the entity provide a database? Note that the standing may change over time.

I'm not sure what this means. Why use an immutable database for one use?

If you are suggesting that desktop computers will be replaced by tablets, I say NO. They are supplemented by them.

I have an earnest question, as I have had to resort to mounting an SMB share in “Files” app because iTunes is an insufferable PÓS:
How can you access files on the device and transfer them to a computer, for example?

I think that proprietary platform limited software on iPad is not typically mature as a main video editor or DAW. I record audio and produce music, and while my iPhone and iPad are great for making midi sequences, and even though I CAN connect a usb audio interface, it’s clunky and the opposite of why I would use the device, aka on the train or away from home. I typically record my drum set or guitar or trumpet with a rather large setup involving a rackmount audio interface, hardware mic preamps of good quality, and let’s face it: drum sets are large.

I know many folks that use their tablet connected to their desktop DAW over the LAN to control parameters on a synth or effects processor. In live sound setups it’s a great remote. It’s not a replacement for a larger computer, and size and scale of peripherals and the tasks involved are large. The form factors have legitimately distinct purposes.

I'm betting more on the fact that this was an experiment that was supposed to be short and focus on the effects on John's, but rather proved that giving people a license to do lawless things does in fact make them perform these to the maximum extent.

I'd guess that a couple of sessions in everybody running the experiment saw the potential to extort, manipulate and just plain have fun drinking/drugging and doing plain old illegal things under the pretense of "experiment".
Same for me, but looking at nushell, I'm not ruling out that they'll end up with something very similar to it. (I haven't used Powershell much to be honest.)
Regarding the comment "and don't just tell me you need the money", why would their personal financial situation matter if the person has already proven their skills and abilities?

The only other motivations I can see as being viable as a response (other than working because you have to earn money to live a certain lifestyle) is "I really want to learn XYZ and I can't do that on my own without working in a team with more resources" or for NGOs hiring there could be further social good motivations.
Just look at the amount of heroin produced in Afghanistan before US invasion and after (hint: it's increased by orders of magnitude).

Even more: US invaded Afghanistan immediately after Taliban managed to destroy almost all heroin production. I don't think it's a coincidence.

There're reports of people who visited Afghanistan after US invasion and they reported that it feels like US army guards poppy fields. It would be very easy for US to destroy them, but they behave like they didn't care.

I think that's was the main reason for Afghanistan incursion: to kill two birds with one stone. Earn lots of money and flood Russia (which US hates) with drugs.

It was given axiomatically, with classical set theory as the foundation. Define the reals as a complete, ordered field. In fact it can also be proven that any two complete ordered fields are isomorphic. From this you can prove various cancellative, associative and distributive laws and obvious things like 0 < 1. See[0] for a readable Coq formalization.

> the stack frame size is reserved once for all stack allocated variables when the function is called

Is there somewhere that's documented for LLVM? That's my expectation of what the final compiler output should be, but I read that the IR allocates every variable dynamically, and then they optimize away whatever they can. I haven't been able to figure out how or where it's guaranteed that all allocations will be coalesced.

I wouldn't normally worry about it, but I've talked to folks who don't believe me when I say it doesn't matter whether you declare an integer inside or outside of a loop. It would be nice to be able to explain exactly why it can never matter.
Modulinos are nice (using them in Python and Ruby ever since I did Perl), sometimes an entirely self-contained single-sourcefile program is very useful, especially when leaning on literate programming, yet one may still want its functions to be importable by an outsider program.

Light reminder that this would be a problem when the shell got set -e:

Shellcheck to the rescue, use if; then; fi instead which is barely longer.
The epsilon delta definition of limit is not circular and there is no infinity anywhere in it. Are you referring to the limit as something goes to +infinity on the real line? That's just bookeeping shorthand for some quantifiers over bounded numbers.

I'm genuinely curious as to what you were getting hung up on, because odds are you learned the wrong definitions or somehow changed the definition to something that is incorrect, and then discovered the error later on. It's a fairly straightforward definition if you can do the proper bookkeeping over the quantifiers, and is designed to not have anything to do with infinities. But many people struggle with quantifiers.

First of all, most developers have gone through similars phases in their careers, so don't feel like this is some sort of mistake you made. Take all those side projects and spin them back up so you can use them for demos during interviews. This approach has worked remarkably well for me in the past. It shows initiative and the ability to drive a project to completion, so I would focus on ways that you can leverage these projects to your advantage.

Someone who wants APL2 but not to pay anyone for it uses GNU APL: they just aren’t that far away from each other.

Maybe it’s worth closing the gap, but who pays for that? APL2 has already been paid for, so it’s hard for a company to pay for it again.

On the other hand, they continue to pay for support, and if there were more APL2 users then that could surely save them money, and it seems plausible that a FOSS APL2 would make more APL2 users, but the existing APL2 users would suffer because they would be able to command less money for the support they already offer.
Yes. First get a sensor so you can track it, radon can change quite a bit over time. I bought two from airthings.com. They support IOS, Android, and even have an graphana plugin (direct, not requiring upload to a cloud first). They track temp, humidity, VOCs, radon, CO2, and something else I can't remember. They have pretty incredible bluetooth range, it's slow, but I can get an update of both sensors from anywhere in my 3 story house. I'm used to bluetooth only sometimes working when on the same floor.

After mapping out my house we saw numbers as high as 15, 4.0 is the recommended mitigation threshold in the USA, 2.6 for the EU.

After talking to a company they recommended sealing our sump pump area, and then installing a fan that sucked air from under our foundation. Our readings dropped from 15 to 0.5, and stayed there. I do wonder how long the sump pump sealant will last, but I have the airthings to watch.

So sure, open up the windows when you can, but I'm glad I can close the windows when it's smokey or cold and still have low radon levels.
This is simply not true. The UK parliament - at the time the most industrialised nation on Earth and possibly the country in which it started - was entirely stocked with land owners, all of whom would be working that land and reinvesting into it, along with many owners of factories. Owning land was a prerequisite to voting, let alone being an MP.

John Fielden[1][2], one of the most notable social reformers, especially for factory workers, was the owner of a mill:

> On his father’s death in 1811, Fielden and his brothers inherited the family cotton-spinning business at Todmorden, which became one of the greatest manufacturing concerns in Great Britain. Unlike most mill owners, Fielden soon became a supporter of legislation to protect factory labour.

So we can see that any them and us is a false dilemma and hence, not true. Not only that, even with opposition from "most mill owners", reforms still went through (even though some MPs at times slowed it or watered down some of the reforms).

So, capitalists in a capitalist society did indeed do what no other societies had done before. As Fieldsen notes in his The Curse of the Factory System:

> Here, then, is the "curse" of our factory system: as improvements in machinery have gone on, the "avarice of masters" has prompted many to exact more labour from their hands than they were fitted by nature to perform, and those who have wished for the hours of labour to be less for all ages than the legislature would even yet sanction, have had no alternative but to conform more or less to the prevailing practice, or abandon the trade altogether

Human greed is not limited to capitalists, but the reforms were.

This is ingenious and a incredible way to display how illogical a doctor (and people in general) can be.

It's completely obvious that the doctor isn't going to really read the paper (he's too busy). You just present a paper and suddenly the doctor will trust you more. Literally it's deference to Authority being employed by the doctor here; nothing going on with rationality or logic.

Don't present a single logical argument to the doctor. If that argument, however logical, goes against traditional medical knowledge you will be dismissed. The key is to forget about logic and use an authoritative approach.

I'm betting the actual contents of those research papers don't even matter. You can print out a completely bogus study, just make sure it looks legit.
React/JSX converts what was previously DSLs nested within DSLs into code. This is why dev tools like this oft use React, or more specifically JSX. It complements the HTML DSL, but in a coding context. Most other similar browser tools use templating mechanisms with DSLs for embedded logic. For this reason, React will have jQuery like longevity, and people will continue to design for it. It's easier to code for code than multi-layer DSLs (see Jinja, Vue, angular, swig, etc). Forgive me if that was a little meta or over simplifying.
Yes, approach as teamwork and be humble about what you bring to the table, making it clear you are aware that you are a layperson, and that you are also not the first to go off and think you've found something googling, after that I brought spreadsheets to my appointment, summaries of abstracts and links together with the protocol for the test I believed I required. Eventually, after one GP moved on to study drug gene interactions and another retired I was able to get the gene test I had hypothesised may reveal an underlying cause and I was correct.
Kids want to emulate what they see, especially in "fun" entertainment. My grandfather wanted to become a circus clown. My dad talked about western-style indigenous Americans. My He-Man/GI-Joe-drenched childhood was filled with dreams of becoming a warrior/soldier. And today the heroes of "fun" entertainment are YouTubers and Twitch streamers.

The permeation you experience has been happening for a long time, only now you notice it, because the world she wants to emulate is borderline alien to you.

Don't worry, most of the times, it is a phase.
Several airlines have cut alcohol service because their employees were being abused. They continued to serve alcohol through the height of Covid, so blaming "covid culture" is counter factual.
Airport bars exist. If you can't manage to make it through the horrible travail of 2.5 hours without alcohol, feel free to drink up before boarding. Or bring some on the plane with you. Or pop a Xanax.
Finally, $500 to safely fly from one city to another is not expensive. Planes cost >$100 million to buy. Pilots are well trained and expensive. Ground crews, maintenance, flight plans, etc.
If you don't like flying - please take the train. Nobody is stopping you. But if you do fly, you'll be happier (and the people around you will be happier) if you stop complaining.

> Telsa gets 5 km per kWh, and takes an eternity to charge, Renault Twizy gets almost 10 km per kWh, and charges at 12 km per minute with aftermarket fast charger.

This is very misleading. Twizy is a two-person mini car. It gets good range for its battery size when driven slowly (like 45 km/h) but at speeds comparable to regular cars it loses its advantage. It's lightweight but not very aerodynamic. The "high-end" version of Twizy is limited to 80 km/h and won't give much range at that speed.

Also, it takes 3 hours to charge its 6 kWh battery, i.e. the charging power is roughly 2 kW, i.e. charging power to capacity ratio is only 2/6 = 0.3C, not very much. Liquid-cooled full size cars such as Tesla can be quick charged even at peak of 3C (!), i.e. 50 kWh battery can take 170 kW for a short time and 1C for long time. That's MUCH quicker charging than Twizy.

Sure, home-charging the Model 3 SR+ takes 5 hours even with maximum 11 kW power, but it's mainly intented for overnight use, and then again gives you massive range of 600 km or so when driven Twizy's speeds (if not more).

I agree that generally smaller cars gets better range more easily, i.e. aerodynamic body shape such as Model 3 can get the same range with 50 kWh battery than much bigger SUV shaped car with 80 kWh battery. If both cars have the same quick charging power (in kilowatts), the smaller cars gives you much better charging speed in km/h, due to its lower consumption, thus travels long distances faster.
console.log is not asynchronous. For example, this code:

let a = "hello";
console.log( a );
let a = "goodbye";

will always reliably print "hello", not "goodbye".

What you're referring to is the fact that when you expand an object or array in the console, then you see the contents of that object or array at the time you expand it, not as it originally existed when console.log() was called.

> I.e. it wasn't created from the need, like someone at Microsoft wanted to automate his work and created PS to solve his problem

Interestingly enough, it is used for automating Windows configuration.

Re last paragraph:

UNIX commands are random letters that are like that due to historical reasons — if you don’t know one exists, you can’t find it. And when you have to use {} in PS you are dealing with something you would do with awk sed with even more arcane syntax — PS is pretty readable with some knowledge on any PL. Also, they are Verb-Noun based so you can get around and find commands even offline (though Noun-Verb would have probably been a better decision). Due to the fixed syntax they can be shortened very well. Also, due to every “command” having the same conventions, arguments are properly done (no tar xf or -xf or —extract), they are reliably autocompletable without black magic, and they are also autocompletable by giving enough letters to make it unambiguous. So while I am not particularly fond of Microsoft, powershell is better than bash (though frankly, what isn’t?) in every conceivable way.

This has always seemed like the weirdest thing to me. I was super into the SciFi channel and I’d always change the channel when this came on. I hate when people talk during movies. Is it just like, because the movie they’re watching is bad and they say funny stuff making fun of it that people like?
I mean it sounds reasonable, right, but it just doesn't work that well. Brave's Tor windows might be a better way of using it.

Fundamentally, trying to make everyone look exactly similar is going to leave a lot of chances because you can only ever try, and it'll leave a machine learning algorithm or even a statistician with diff with a lot of information about what is important. The worst offence is that it relies on everyone else doing the same thing. It doesn't really work.

Randomising takes all that out. With no real way to predict it, no easy way of telling what's random and what isn't, and with no reliance on everyone else doing the same, you have just as many if not actually less bits of identifiable information, rely on no-one else, and feed garbage to algorithms which throws them off and possibly confuses you with many other people, protecting them at the same time.

I really don't get why the biggest and most well-known Tor browser, the Tor browser, would keep using such a flawed method. Better than nothing though.
And with higher latency it’s even worse: from Australia, latency to the server was over 350ms (going the long way round, via the USA, for some reason), and it took 80 seconds to load. With HTTP/2, it could have taken as little as two seconds to load, and I’d expect it to take less than eight seconds.
