That may be, however I'm not looking for experiences when learning software engineering topics. Instead I want something that fits together with my existing knowledge framework and delivers significant benefits.

Programming languages are table stakes and they compete for attention with the things which do matter in a project, like the social aspects and project management, team skills, development ecosystem and domain knowledge among others. Having for example deep knowledge the kernel would be more useful to me than all of the languages in your list combined.
Because I read the Amazon Business Services Agreement and was aware of the single account clause, I inquired about this very issue when both running my mom’s business on Amazon and setting up a different account for a friend. Seller Support was very polite and direct in saying it would only be a problem if the two accounts were selling the same or similar merchandise. My take is they don’t want sanctioned sellers sneaking back on the platform. Anyway, now they face the Smurf Attack of Chinese sellers with 5&6 letter names and apparently they can’t keep up with it.
> You can't really serialize something like an ami.

Copy AMI to separate AWS account, not in your Org, and keep keys to that account offline.
I don't know about embedded, but I'm quite happy with Linus' decision and appreciate that I can compile kernel on my laptop in reasonable amount of time.
The structure of the argument as presented in the book is

“we see this sound symbolism in onomatopoeia” and gives a very large list of examples, followed by “this can be used to explain other phenomenons such as [insert parents statement]”

You are right that it is interesting how and if ko-so-a-do fits this pattern, but I don’t think it’s a “gotcha” against sound symbolism in Japanese.
> Emotions are there, regardless like if we express them or not

That's not completely true. There is an option to not have those negative emotions in the first place.

Maybe it's just completely outrageous that people still think Microsoft or Samsung care about them in any way?
Yes, is already hard to do for the technology evolution itself, plus, as the article says: if people/developers don’t agree on which training/instructions give to algorithms, how the algorithms make a good decision?
Was listening to Data Lake architecture last week. Ran out of my audible credits early this month so used this website, I think it was called Narration Box or something to turn the ebook into audiobook. Not to shabby but it was TTS at the end of the day, so I guess it almost works. The book's pretty great though.
> Not to shit on decent work, but I don't see a reason to use this over Zig.

Maybe you don't mean to sound harsh but from their About page:

" It is an evolution of C enabling the same paradigms and retaining the same syntax as far as possible."

I don't think Zig has the same goal.

Also, they usefully compare the languages:

"In Zig but not in C3

Pervasive compile time execution.
Memory allocation failure is an error.
Zig's compile time execution is the build system.
Different syntax and behaviour compared to C.
Structs define namespace.
Async primitives built in.

In C3 but not in Zig

Module system
Integrated build system
Built-in strings, maps, vararrays
Optional contracts
Familiar C syntax and behaviour
"
And then you have huge corporations with zillions of dollars passing through their systems, employing hundreds or thousands of people, and storing terabytes of mission-critical data, who treat the people who try to help them make wise IT decisions like mindless code-monkeys who don't know anything, despite having been ostensibly hired for their expertise on the topic.
Or, some stalker might try to blackmail her with making this information public. Some professor might lower her grades because he is outraged by her behavior. Some colleagues might distance themselves from her because they view this as immoral.

Given the status of sex work, there are many reasons why many who do it do not want to associate their private identity with it.

That statement essentially has zero relevance to humans consuming CBD. You cannot extrapolate in vivo from in vitro, not even negatively.
Make sure the data is exported and backed up, but “the Internet at the office is down and so is the cell network but magically we still need everyone to work despite massive localized disruption” seems a bit out there for most risk profiles.
It's a much simpler answer in Norway : Yes you definitely should buy unless you can't afford it yet or plan to move in a very short time.

Interesting news is that some Japanese article said that only most cheap grade uses Li-ion battery meanwhile other grades use this nickel battery. I wonder is it because really superior than Li-ion or just because it's expensive initially.

Edit: This article said that the new nickel is 1000Wh/L meanwhile Li-ion on cheaper model is 740Wh/L. It seems that now nickel overcomes Li-ion for Wh per volume. (other Li-ions also seems to <= 800Wh/L)

It all comes down to who controls the tech. Rest assured it won't be set free for the greater good of all.
On top of that it isn't available all the time (how can last train be at midnight -- that means everyone has to wrap up their thing and head out between 11pm and 11:45pm depending on where they are. So it's impossible to not live in SF, not own a car, and say attend any normal house party. Like even one that ends on the early side, at 12am, you'd have to leave before it's over.

It is entirely accurate to say that there is literally _no_ public transport for major routes, for part of the day.

Also within the city, to access most parts you have no BART or other train, you only have Muni. And if you've ever tried to take it without the help of an app like Transit (or even with the help of the app) it's pretty unreliable and can be difficult to figure out. Compare to Taipei or even NYC where you can more or less jump on a train that arrives at regular intervals, at any time, and get to most parts of the city.
I met one of Vladimir Arnold's grandchildren at a high school math summer camp. One of the things that stood out to me was his insistence that his proofs were as simple and understandable as possible. Unlike other students, he would intentionally avoid using sophisticated techniques. He would brag that a "third grader" could understand it. His preference for simplicity and elegance was clearly inherited from his grandfather.
You can easily launder money through any two sided market. OF is no different in that regard.
Sounds like a DR test; spin up an entire new thing to make sure the backups worked, then turn it off. Costs a few hours of extra resources.
Rooting for others to fail instead of one's own success is a recipe for always being miserable. In this case it's also logically dubious, because we have no idea how C++ would work in a Linux kernel - it was never tried.
It’s pretty sad that many people (lets face It mainly women) who make themselves visible on the internet and/or express an unpopular opinion on the face abuse - and I guess porn is no different, but it seems quite naive to assume that you can stay anonymous on onlyfans like sites.
a tiny problem is who decides what is true and what is false
Just wait until Rust starts being used across the kernel, if compilation speed is an issue.

At least with C++ most corporations actually use binary libraries, we aren't doing Gentoo style across our codebases.
Learning fundamentals doesn't mean you don't code as you learn, it just means you code to learn rather than code to finish a project. Coding to learn is deliberate practice and is the best way to learn fundamentals. Just learning whatever you need to get a specific project done means you will always have a lot of holes, likely you'd get more things done in the medium to long run by practicing and learning things properly from the beginning instead.
Energy can be converted into political power fairly easily.
This article largely misses the point on these reactors. Liquid fueled, low pressure fission reactors make sense, solid fuel, water cooled, high pressure reactors are stupid. This is the key factor, not Thorium.

Thorium is good to use for nations without much Uranium supply (in a reactor its turned into Uranium which is what fuels the reaction), but some of the small modular reactor designs inching towards the market today are designed for Uranium molten salts too.

Cooling isn't the point of the liquid fuels. Energy is extracted from running the fuel salt through heat exchangers, so that's cooling I guess. However the reactor and fuel are engineered to maintain optimal conditions by design not by brute force cooling. High temperature without pressurization, mixing to allow burning all the reactants, easy extraction of by-products, and simple means for walk-away safety as a backup are all more important aspects of liquid fuels.

This video is a great intro and explains most of that better than 3 paragraphs can https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7baTdyHv8g most everything on that channel is related to Thorium or next-gen reactors in general.
Governments (democratic governments) should not interfere/make pressure with private companies more than what’s already regulated by laws.
If you want to really have some fun, open up a big theater arc lamp. I work as a EE these days, with a guy who's in the theater/event/awesome lighting industry. He's just about fearless.

Except that he's afraid of the arc lamp drivers in his products. Coke can-sized kilovolt capacitors are nothing to mess around with, even if you are nearly fearless....
An important thing to note is that there’s a wide variety of outcomes dependent on the public’s behaviour, and that the government’s messaging promotes the “more deaths” scenarios.
IMO any place where Copilot is mentioned is a relevant place to put this. I don't know how anyone working in software can just turn a blind eye to shit like this. Anyone who uses Copilot is implicitly endorsing this theft.

We have a duty as practitioners in the industry to call it out when we see something wrong. If even devs aren't calling bullshit on Copilot, the media won't care, courts won't care, and it will be declared legal, and future theft will be normalized.

Its ridiculous how we all see the big tech companies doing various kinds of terrible shit and then the next new shiny thing comes along and everyone forgets all about it? Are you goldfish? What will it take to get someone to actually give a shit and stop supporting this kind of product/behavior?
I identify with this issue extensively. Having faced it for years, being hugely in love with technology but being of a mostly creative, verbal personality so many of the concepts would never get past the first stages or "stick" when tackling things like OOP or even relatively basic programming fundamentals like polymorphism and recursion. I'm very much of the opinion some things are worth learning, even if you arent naturally talented and probably wont do it professionally. I look forward to trying this out.
There's already developers on the market at an incredibly low price. Good luck getting code that compiles out of them, much less that is correct.

I've been a dev for almost 25 years, and in my experience how much someone is paid has very little correlation to how good their code is. I've worked with outsourced developers in India, Poland, and Vietnam who are brilliant at writing clean, robust, well-designed code and earn the equivalent of low-two-digits thousands of dollars per year, as well as former FAANG engineers who earn three-digit thousands of dollars and write untested, untestable spaghetti code.

I'm afraid we'll see more and more of these, since now they'll be able to cycle through completions and try until it seems to pass all tests.

In which case the value will lie in defining the tests, and the people who do that will earn the most. That's fine.
Imagine waking up today and decide to have this opinion.

Even if there is a large skew, the mean and median will be often still be pretty close together. Especially with a large sample size.
> I know things in America are different, but as a lifelong pedestrian who owned a car for less than 2 years and walks all the time, I was endangered by reckless cyclists more often than by reckless drivers.

Bullshit. You notice reckless cyclists more because they're more unusual, that's all. The statistics for the rate at which pedestrians are killed or seriously injured show that it's overwhelmingly drivers who are putting you in danger.
I loved that too !!
> Medical effects of marijuana derivatives are so convenient for recreational marijuana advocates

That is a non-argument. Of course advocates of a good thing will defend their thing on its good merits. But overhyped? Do you understand cannabis has been very actively studied for decades, with the majority of fraudulent studies being heavily against cannabis?
How is not taking monetary advantage of lonely men who most likely never have normal human relationships not immoral? People spending money on these things are not your average Joe's. The whole idea is morally corrupt and onlyfans and the like are doing it on scale now.
It's not like gpt models are some sort of random walk or Markov bot. They produce nuanced text with deep semantic relationships between large segments of text. There's a direct relationship between the algorithms human brains used to produce the training data and the algorithms being approximated by these models. No, gpt-3 isn't human level generally, but it is human level competent in some domains.

These tools are effectively less then a year old in production, but we're already seeing the potential for huge disruption in lots of markets based on relatively straightforward uses of the tech.

I can't wait to see what a skillful and artfully sophisticated use will be. I don't think we've even scratched the surface.
Topically applied CBD cream might.
If you have a cloud, it's not "test your backup".

It's "have an automated restore" ready. Maybe on a different cloud. With clouds, you can test standing up your entire infrastructure/system stack across even a couple hundred machines or more in automated fashion, and then tear the whole thing down.
> In this case, I felt like the Copilot approach would be worse for both experienced and beginner programmers. Experienced programmers would need to spend time studying the various options proposed, recognize that they don’t correctly solve the problem, and then would have to search online for solutions anyway. Beginner programmers would likely feel like they’ve solved the problem, wouldn’t actually learn what they need to understand about limitations and capabilities of regular expressions, and would end up with broken code without even realizing it.

This is similar to what I thought—replace "experienced" and "beginner" with "curious" and "lazy"—when I first read the tagline of GitHub Copilot on its landing page:

> Skip the docs and stop searching for examples. GitHub Copilot helps you stay focused right in your editor.

We need docs and examples for things that we aren't familiar with. Skipping them means that we blindly trust Copilot to generate correct code. And even if the generated code is correct, we still need to understand why and how it's correct.

One use case I see the best fit for Copilot is for generating boilerplates that we are already familiar with and understand.
Coincidentally, I am also designing my own "Better C" language and I deeply considered the benefits and drawbacks of modules and headers and headers, for practical purposes, come out slight ahead.

Headers have some really unbeatable advantages over module interfaces: the tooling is incomparable plus the header serves as the API documentation.

While modules are great, in practice you have interop problems and you still need a tool (if it is a binary file) to extract the interfacing API.

Modules are better from an elegance and clean-design PoV, but headers win on the practicality.
True, yet despite all security talk, Google, Apple and Microsoft rather improve C and C++ instead of just throwing away 50 years of libraries, OS code and GPGPU tooling.

So while I enjoy doing toy applications in Rust, C++ is the language I have available on the IDE installer to write native code on our projects.

Until Rust manages to get a similar checkbox on the same installer, it isn't going to be an option for certain kinds of corporations.
One tiny past thread:

Thank you so much. Your comment captures the essence of what I am trying to build. A learning environment for self-learners.

As you have put it "...things are worth learning, even if you arent naturally talented and probably wont do it professionally"

Couldn't have said it better myself.

It's also important to realize that the standard Turing machine doesn't actually have an infinite tape, but rather it has a tape that can grow to hold an arbitrarily long, but still finite, sequence. At any point during the execution of the Turing machine, only a finite part of the tape will be occupied.

So we can construct approximations of it in the sense that we can create computers with varying, finite amounts of RAM. This might seem like a pedantic/obvious point to make, but it is actually also possible to design abstract computational machines that operate on truly infinite quantities, like a machine that has random access to an infinite, uncomputable sequence.

From a simplicity perspective, it also makes more sense to consider machines with an arbitrarily large amount of RAM (you can always hotplug more RAM), compared to setting some arbitrary limit because that is the most RAM we happen to be able to achieve in this universe.
If you want to backup an individual AMI you're probably doing it wrong. That probability goes to near certainty when you're talking about serializing it for off-site backup. Backup the deployment automation and the data, sure.
> For this to be true I think you have to be using a basically circular definition of reckless driving, like "if it was possible for conditions ahead of you to change faster than you could brake, then you should have been going slower."

I'm mainly reasoning back from the fact that drivers are causing so many premature deaths, yes. "If you're killing this many people then you must be being reckless", but I think that's sound logic? But also if we look at things like e.g. compliance with relevant laws, that seems to suggest that drivers are reckless as a matter of course - drivers flout speed limits all the time, to the point that they will often try to argue that this crime is somehow a non-crime because everyone does it.
The perfect language used for nothing is not worth much. PHP and COBOL have a real impact on the world and therefore deserves credit. Would I program in PHP and COBOL if I had a choice? Nope. But that doesn't change the fact that PHP and COBOL are languages that have proven themselves in the real world.
It’s obviously a made-up posthumous quote. Nobody who cared about their image (as John Ehrlichman clearly did) was using “blacks” instead of Jesse Jackson’s “African Americans” while talking to journalists in 1994.
It's debatable and not as clear cut. Many believe that a "liberation" of sexual content manifests the objectification of women and therefore is a net negative to society and the progress toward equality.

Very interesting. There are so many things Id like to say.

c) Was this done as blackmail? There is a somewhat common dating site scam where someone gets you to friend them on FB, and then to sext with them-- then they threaten to send the material to your FB friends. I'd imagine OF girls would almost be a captive audience for this.

---
While I find OF personally distasteful, I realize that I paid for sex the old fashioned way, "With a wedding ring, a house, a child and half the stuff when you leave." I can't help but see this as an acceleration of that. I know plenty of people in miserable marriages.

Women have always traded beauty for money. Just before it was through marriage.

---

and lastly... I think we're ignoring the elephant in the room.

I'd wager that a much higher percentage than average of OF girls have likely been abuse victims at some point in their lives. There's this paradoxical thing where, yes, they're adults they have every right to sell pictures, but often what leads them to this is... abuse, which makes the whole thing very murky.

Source? Anecdotal-- having dated a cam girl, and my SO works with girls who have been abused and it's just depressing. I have very causal interactions with this girls, but, they'll either be afraid of you because you're a man, or recklessly flirt because you're a man, or in the case of neglect/absentee fathers-- cast you in the role of the male role-model they need. I have about 6 girls who call me "dad." :-/

One girl here actually gave someone a blowjob for a Lunchables snack pack (worth $2.99).
If you have an internet service where you pay out money to users, you are required to have a plan for how to prevent money laundering. The SEC does not fuck around when it comes to that, and if you fuck up, your payment processors will drop you immediately.

Also, only accepting credit card payments to move money into the system goes a long way to protect you from money laundering.
The article addresses this:

“That is still somewhat rare,” Wosar said. “It does happen but it’s more the exception than the rule.

It's something that very high-value targets will eventually have to worry about. But figuring out how to corrupt the backups without disrupting the production systems (and being discovered) is not likely to ever be a fully automatic process for the randomware goons. They'll have to invest serious time in understanding how the victim's systems work. For high-value targets, that will happen.

I just walked through a telecom colo last week and saw a weird new box in somebody else's cage I'd never seen before. Later, I did a web search for the brand name. Apparently this company sells a network filer that keeps local daily/monthly/annual backups and doesn't let you delete them. Probably a good idea for an organization that just wants to throw money at the problem. Of course you can build this yourself with "btrfs sub snap" except for the part about not letting yourself (even as root) delete them.
The Flash thing was so unnecessary. Adobe could have made a WebAssembly version of Flash Player.
And then the cycle of stigmatization begins again… Almost as if there is a purpose to it.

Is stigmatization always an objectively bad thing? I suppose it depends on your frame of reference. I don’t think any person should be stigmatized for what they do, but certain activities may well deserve it. I suppose that’s also a recurrent theme in the New Testament.

One thing I think ought to be stigmatized more is video game usage. I know many people (mostly men) my age (late adolescence) whose lives have been/were destroyed by chronic video game addiction. Similar with porn and “sex-work adjacent” things (on the consumer side).
A nice introduction to the tools used to formally prove software (and mathematics) correct.
