Even assuming that’s true, if your hearing suddenly cuts out, and you decide to pull over in response, the chance you’ll encounter one of those objects in the few seconds it takes to pull over is rather low.

For this to be a real danger, either the driver would have to not notice that they suddenly couldn’t hear anything, or the faulty hearing aid would have to pass through some sounds but not others. Both of those scenarios seem pretty unlikely.

Meanwhile, from some quick googling, it seems to be common for completely deaf people to drive; apparently there are devices that can translate sirens and such into visual cues, but such devices are not universally used. To be fair, it’s a bit different if you’re not expecting it or practiced at it.

As you have seen, he could record the entire protocol with segmented memory. There is also a type of instruments called "logic analyzer" or mixed oscilloscope, where you just watch a digital signal, one or zero. The analog scope signal does say so much more than just one or zero. Of course he didn't needed really the analog signal, but it looks nice.

I think this is the essence of what he stands on, and where he primarily derives his reasoning from. But this was proved to be wrong many times already. No desire to repeat it again.
If anything I think they are written by people who are too smart --- theoreticians who care only about the standard and can't be bothered exercising common sense when the standard doesn't specify what to do.

What you say is true in theory but not in aggregate. It's no different from any other business in that respect. Look at companies in a field you are familiar with and you will find that the very large ones are a lot more impersonal, ruthlessly efficient, and amoral.
may be. What i saw was a 10 years cap, and otherwise the next level on the menu was SDE 5 (i.e. principal, expected to have publications, etc., and only rare individuals can make SDE5 coming from outside as i gathered from googling) which i can only wish you great luck passing the interview for. Note: it was a real unambiguous cap, explicitly stressed as the strict cap 2 times, not that typical "we're looking for 5-10 years experience", and it was made clear that for exceeding the cap - either apply for SDE5 or don't bother to apply at all.

It is not about translating intent accurately. What you need is for compilation to be fully specified. Anywhere where there is multiple correct ways to compile something introduces a risk for bugs that only show up with some compilers.

If you are a compiler or library writer, one solution is to avoid having useful properties that are not part of the spec. For instance, Go does not guarantee any particular iteration order for hashmaps; so they go out of there way to randomize the iteration order, thereby preventing developers from writing code that depends on a deterministic order.

In the case of threading, what you would need to do is essentially have a compiler/runtime that goes out of its way to order and time operation in a random/adversarial manner.

I've seen research that looks into doing this in a VM environment; which would be inhibited by the type of compiler optimizations being discussed. And others that modify the compiler itself to replace the concurrency primitives with runtime functions, that can then execute them in a fuzzed order.

Ultimately, fuzzing and testing can only give you confidence that what is being tested is mostly correct. It can never give you confidence that what is written is entirely correct. If you want confidence in the latter, you need to invest in some form of static analysis (which could either be built into the language, such as a type system, or be an external analysis tool). Ultimatly, writing even a moderately complicated program (by modern standards) with full confidence in its correctness would involve advancing the state of the art of the field by decades (if not longer).

For the most part, the field just doesn't care about programs being fully correct; and accept it as a fact of life that going onto new/untested platforms and configurations will introduce/expose bugs.

In my youth -- in a Western European country -- it was years.
I'm currently exploring similar options and I'd also describe myself as a "logical rationalist with zero tolerance for woo-woo”. The thing is: a lot of these psychedelic retreats are wrapped with strong spiritual culture.

I'm torn on this, on one end I noticed retreats in Northern Europe usually have a more "scientific" approach than, let's say, similar retreats in Peru such as Ayahuasca which is rooted in shamanism. I believe both approaches are valuable, but it's clear that a "rational mind" would be out of its element at first.

Exactly. As I said above, a lot of these psychedelic afterglows are short-lived, leading to an urge to redose to recapture the experience.

The dam is actually the one issue that Ethiopians agree upon regardless of who the head of government is. The stance of Ethiopian government has not changed between EPRDF and the current ruling party.

Ethiopians have always been united when it comes to the GERD because it's not just a political stunt. It's a matter of development and survival just as it is for the Egyptian people. That's why it's best for Egypt's government refrain from making threats and negotiate in good faith.
Sure, but that’s not my problem as a new hire. I just assume any new codebase will be horribly sticky and hope I can smooth it out a little.

Humans calibrate so quickly. With my latest job, I spent the first month thinking I was coding my way through a nostril-deep vat of honey and getting nothing done, but my boss was impressed with my productivity. Now it’s just normal and I feel productive again though the pace hasn’t changed.

Startups go faster, big companies go slower. I’d much rather get paid well and navigate intractable tech debt with zero pressure to work extra hours than move quickly and get side eyes for stopping at 5.

If you include a standard header (using <> brackets) and call a function that the standard says get declared when doing that, the compiler is allowed to assume you want the standard behavior, and inline that/replace it by a specialized version/etc.

Optimizing memset, in particular, can reap huge benefits, for example for sizes of 4 or 8 bytes in tight loops or for zeroing cache line sized blocks.
That's some fancy oscilloscope, but you can also get that info via usbmon, for example, directly to wireshark.
"This assumption that gradients are everywhere/ubiquitous/superior is not correct."

That is an excellent comment by DJB, and one with which I concur.

There is an inverse relationship with privilege minimization also, that many commodity operating systems require users to maintain a certain amount of privilege to effectively use the system. Reduction of privilege then results in a loss of functionality if there is not a replacing system. With things like high level privileges for admin, but not truly Forest Admin / Enterprise Admin, we only saw native fixes for this recently with the addition of JIT / JEA circa ~2017, or, use of 3rd party administration tools.

All of that advance planning might go out the window if you start to suffer from dementia and are judged to be mentally incompetent. Those relations could end up putting you into an elder care facility because you're unable to care for yourself and they don't want to facilitate your suicide. Most jurisdictions that allow assisted suicide require the patient to be of sound mind.

Except so far Cavalry inherited After Effect's read-only Flow Graph. But a real node editor is planned for the future.

Here is the actual article: https://www.pnas.org/content/118/7/e2013284118

> We tested eight annual and seasonal climate variables, including temperature, precipitation, frost days, and atmospheric CO2 concentrations in a mixed-effects model framework to account for city-to-city variation. We found that mean annual temperature was the strongest predictor of these four pollen metrics (P < 0.0001 for all metrics; Fig. 2 and SI Appendix, Table S4). The full mixed-effects models explained 51–90% of the variance (i.e., conditional R^2) in pollen metrics, and mean annual temperature alone (i.e., marginal R^2) explained 14–37% of the variance in pollen metrics (SI Appendix, Figs. S4 and S5 and Table S4). Notably, while atmospheric CO2 concentrations were sometimes included in the group of the most parsimonious models, the variation explained was often quite low (e.g., annual integral R^2 marginal = 0.01).

I'm not sure what I expected, but temperature fluctuations seem like a sensible primary driver of pollen count. Other variables that I think might be interesting include wind speed and relative humidity.

Age is an interesting point too. I don't know how I feel about that idea.

Though I do like that there are non-elite competitions (but still like .1% level..) with age groupings by decades that we can still fight in as we get older.

My sport is climbing. Like a lot of sports now it too has become a youthful competition (though you can be nearly 40 and still be world class on real rocks).

maybe because the type of climbing that competition climbing has morphed into (think jumping, parkour) is more gymnastic!

95% of the elite competitors are very young.

But maybe it's just because the crop of competitors my age didn't grow up with that style and we'll see today's competitors who did grow up learning it stay competitive longer.

> A woman cannot divorce a man

A blatant lie. False. Untrue. As I said, you're just a flat-earther.

The real joke is that you're probably unaware of what Islam actually teaches, nor what the law is in practice. You're just regurgitating ragged hand-me-down propaganda sheets. And you've swallowed the kool aid.

Yes, definately a flat-earther ...

> So the situation you're describing is a woman who doesn't divorce and remarries.

No, thats the situation racist Islamophobic bigot #1 tried to insist upon. Do try to keep up.

> Even if I'm indeed a bigot, and perhaps I am

Self awareness is a start. Stick on that path.

> it doesn't pertain to the argument

There really isn't an argument to be had when you and your ilk's "arguments" are 50% complete ignorance and 50% outright deliberate lies. And you are 100% stuck to your bigoted guns.

So thats the end of that.
If you find yourself making Skype calls to a Mexican psycho-spiritual treatment center to discuss your condition, and then go on a trip there, you do not have "debilitating social anxiety".

"debilitating social anxiety" is when you pace through your living room for 15 minutes to work up the courage to make a call to order pizza. And then afterwards, ruminate on every awkward detail in that one minute conversation, forever.
>You have not argued in good faith.

That's not correct, as a show of good faith I've explicitly asked for specific details on what the complaint is. I can't help you if you don't provide those details. If it seems I haven't done that, I apologize, that was not my intention. I'll try to be clearer next time. Let me know if there's anything specific you want me to clear up.

It feels like the promise of neovim is finally being realized. So much good stuff in 0.5, and now we're seeing cool things being made with the lua integration. It's gone beyond just being a more maintainable fork. It's starting to really feel like the next generation of vim. Very exciting.
My multitasking on such machine was limited to a few terminals, Chromium and other utilities. With the terminals, I had one with nano, another ocasionally compiling code and another with mutt; when compiling code, the system slowed down but I could still use nano. Chromium stayed with a few tabs open for querying stack overflow, google or wikipedia and when not using it its tabs were soon swapped out, so switching back to chromium and switching tabs took a few seconds after compiling something. With regard to other utilities, it was mostly hexchat for IRC and xmms for playing mp3. Not much, but I didn't need much more than that. Raspbian is a reasonably quick distro.

For entertainment it was good enough for old games and h264 1080p movies.

I agree. that it uses (relatively) lots of power (and is very noisy). but a managed switch might serve the guys router needs as well. depends what hes trying to do.

Totally I'm an advocate for 100% legalization of all drugs. Though with strong regulation for things like opiates, more as replacement harm reduction thing than it being something you can get at a liquor store (and you can probably argue similarly for alcohol looking only at a net harm + addiction lens, but that kind of proves the point in treating different drugs differently because of stigma).
That’s like saying ‘putting toothpaste on your toothbrush’ and ‘brushing your teeth’ are two distinct concepts.

Obviously they are, but when some people say they are putting toothpaste on their toothbrush, they are doing so because they plan on brushing their teeth.

In just the same way, it is well documented that many people who say ‘defund the police’ mean completely defund them as a step towards abolishing them. There are people who are literally saying ‘when we say defund’ we mean abolish.

We’re not talking about whether in some abstract world a semantic distinction is possible. We’re talking about how activists are using a political slogan.

It’s hard to imagine you are really claiming that nobody who says ‘defund the police’ means to abolish the police.

Per NIH/NAS [1]:

> Despite these changes in state policy and the increasing prevalence of cannabis use and its implications for population health, the federal government has not legalized cannabis and continues to enforce restrictive policies and regulations on research into the health harms or benefits of cannabis products that are available to consumers in a majority of states. As a result, research on the health effects of cannabis and cannabinoids has been limited in the United States, leaving patients, health care professionals, and policy makers without the evidence they need to make sound decisions regarding the use of cannabis and cannabinoids. This lack of evidence-based information on the health effects of cannabis and cannabinoids poses a public health risk.

It's paralysis, not sleep. Yes, my initial thought is it would be one of those not-so-uncommon psychosomatic things. And the interesting thing is it is only affecting two, where normally it seems to be larger numbers to keep the syndrome live.
Yeah, I've done a bit of that when traveling. I guess the question becomes: "what do we do when even the walk to your car is unsafe", which is a point we will reach the closer we get to temperatures that are actually enough to boil water. ;)

I imagine being able to summon a car would become a key feature, for instance, since storing everyone's vehicles indoors is unlikely to be economical.
People are always making a big damn deal about psychedelics and I’ve been doing shrooms and LSD for like years and it’s been fine.

I’ve got a bit of a feeling it’s people trying to make it more “we self regulate” than anything.

Personally, I enjoy them at festivals too as a party drug and mix it up with MDMA and alcohol and it’s great.

This stuff isn’t even addictive. I stopped for a period of years to test myself.
Urge to redose is maybe laying it on a bit thick.
Drugs feel good, obviously, but psychedelics aren't particulraly adictive to most people. It's usually pretty draining, not something most people would want to do every day.

The afterglows are pretty long for me!

A big factor in the clinical depression I struggled with beginning in 2015 was leaving a job and career path that family and friends had supported me with in big ways, and going to a higher paying, comfortable, and yet socially disconnected job in it's place. On paper, I was making a better move, but everything about it felt wrong. While it's not the same as veteran's PTSD, I feel that moral injury is an accurate description of what occured with me. I believe American society is full of perverse incentives that create moral injury for anyone just trying to survive.

Thanks for sharing - it's a concept I'm familiar with but lacked the words to describe.

Both are true. However, without factoring in decreased friction-brake usage in EVs (due to regenerative braking), this point is meaningless or deceptive.
