> Lua or some other bespoke monstrosity

Lua is definitely the opposite of 'bespoke monstrosity'. It's pretty much the intersection of tiny interpreter, fast execution, and simple language.
Replying here to sibling posts' concerns as well.

All of them in this case did, with no families or major expenses to support, and not a weird scam or pyramid scheme, just standard contract development work where in two or three contractually secured months they'd make what they currently do in over a year. The reason is basically geographical, working for clients abroad is just ridiculously more profitable (think Venezuela).

The risk in this case is extremely low, I wasn't looking for referrals either (I'd offered to give it to them if there were any), just genuinely wanted my friends to earn more and work less.
Hey thanks! I've seen that link thrown around a million times but I've just dismissed it. I appreciate you actually finding a useful one for me!
I've heard a rumour that POSIX mandates that Perl be installed, although I haven't been able to substantiate it.

POSIX-described Turing-complete interpreters include at leat the Bourne shell, awk, and sed, none of which you probably want to use for implementing a security policy.

Apparently LSB 5.0 mandates[1] both Perl (5.8) and Python (2.4), but that won't pacify anyone with an axe to grind about applications making Linux-specific assumptions.

A blog post and a judgement focused on the legal issues is nothing, not even close, not even in the same ballpark, as a thorough report from an investigatory board.

What PHK is calling for is a couple of orders of magnitude greater in detail and depth.

Moreover he specifically denounces any practice of treating technical inquiries as judicial processes. The incentives differ, making that a short path to bad outcomes as people run for cover. Dispassionately recorded findings that inform the whole profession may be useful, and restorative justice has already occurred; punitive justice will be best served as a separate and ultimate proceeding.
To my mind, as someone who isn't a pet person, that's potentially a useful perspective to keep in mind when trying to sort this out. But I don't think your observation is something we can say confidently disproves the idea that toxoplasmosis contributes to a variety of other health issues.

It's possible that it's a little of column A and a little of column B rather than either/or. People tend to want to "pick one" (and only one) and that's often a poor way to try to sort out what's really going on.

Leaving the EU was impossible between the Treaty of Maastricht (1991) and the Treaty of Lisbon (2009).

So for the majority of the EUs existence, leaving was impossible.

A country can leave the EU, if the EU decides to allow it.

A high school friend (2 decades ago) told a teacher that the system keeping track of student grades was vulnerable to attack. The teacher asked the student to demonstrate by attacking the system and adjusting one of his test scores down by 1 point. My friend obliged, and the teacher reported the vulnerability to the administration. An administrator threatened my friend with expulsion, but when he proposed to go public with his story in response, they decided they wouldn't expel him. The resolution was "please don't tell anyone", and the vulnerability was never fixed.
For those without a WSJ subscription, it’s an opinion piece authored by Vin Weber, former congressman (R-MN) and lobbyist who worked with Paul Manafort in Ukraine, and Annette Meeks, current CEO of the Freedom Foundation of Minnesota, a conservative/libertarian small government think tank. Mr. Weber also works there now.

TL;DR: RCV brought Minneapolis weak leadership partly because it failed in its promise to increase voter turnout and improve the tone of campaigns. Minneapolis has had 3 RCV mayoral elections, and it mentions NYC also, but the majority of the piece offers pretty standard lines about how city is run by a politically correct mob and has no direction.

I wish the RCV part provided more data to back up its role in the current situation, but the authors seem more upset that it elected a Democrat.

Use a 32-bit version instead of 64-bit. First, Javascript interpreters use lots of pointers, and doubling the size of every pointer adds up. Second, this will limit memory usage of each process to 4GB max, maybe 3 or even 2.

Then, lower your cache sizes. Modern browsers (and OSes) won't let your RAM sit empty if they can fill it with data that you might use later. Check about:cache. If you want, set browser.cache.memory.capacity to an actual value instead of -1. It's in kilobytes, so multiply accordingly. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.cache.memory.enable Or disable browser.cache.memory.enable entirely.

Modern browsers run different sites in different processes for security. If you're not that worried about it, you can disable this in Firefox by setting browser.tabs.remote.autostart to false. Now when a tab crashes it will kill your whole browser, but it will use less RAM. Remember to restart your browser for these changes to work.

Finally, check in about:performance to make sure you don't have some extensions hogging RAM.
For me the story was amazing. At the time it added so much depth to the Empire it was really a stand out game experience for on the same level as Half Life.

Interesting contrast between the antagonists in this era of star wars compared to Disney era where they're are more Saturday morning cartoon villain caricatures.
its funny you say that, Ruby ALSO took a lot from Lisp and lisp like langugaes. there's even a built in parser in Ruby that converts the language into S-expressions

require 'ripper'
Ripper.sexp('a && b')
=> [:program, [[:binary, [:vcall, [:@ident, "a", [1, 0]]], :"&&", [:vcall, [:@ident, "b", [1, 5]]]]]]
Ripper.sexp(<<-RB)
if a
b
else
c
end
RB
=> [:program, [[:if, [:vcall, [:@ident, "a", [1, 5]]], [[:vcall, [:@ident, "b", [2, 4]]]], [:else, [[:vcall, [:@ident, "c", [4, 4]]]]]]]]

Ruby is just way denser than most lisps.

I love Ruby, Elixir, and Lisp(s)

Note the first reply was where Linus says the creator of Pascal has “brain damage”

I agree “unless you’re intentionally trying to write code badly” reads as abrasive but the good faith interpretation is that the junior engineer doesn’t intend to accuse Linus of same, and is just awkward (or responding in kind?)

On the other hand, saying the creator of Pascal has brain damage seems intended to offend or shows a lack of respect to peers.

You’re right though that everyone showed suboptimal communication here.
It’s always amusing to me that people carefully don’t mention the thousands of times large private companies “overspend for nothing”. The problem is not government. The problem is large organisations and the complexity of what they are trying to do. Things will go wrong.

You can add the use of "retreat" in the context of a value judgement to the list of disagreements, but the reframe into a legal argument makes our exchange largely pointless.

Ah, yeah - we definitely won't agree on much of anything. I'm more of a first-principles/universality sort of guy... whereas it sounds like moral relativism is more your thing.

See what you did there? You created a strawman. There is a difference between "ads" and "Google using data to personalize ads". I've got no beef with the former, but you are arguing in defense of the latter.
Make Money from HomeVidzio Embed
You've conflated a few things here. Are we banning people or messages? You've said that bans need to be content neutral, but also that they can't be based on the individual doing the painting. This would mean that, for example porn would need to be acceptable. Or advertisements, but it seems reasonable for the owner to ban both of those things in pursuit of their desired aesthetic.

The actual case seems to be that anyone can paint anything except certain banned things. But any person can still paint other unbanned things.

That's different than banning particular people. In other words, if the republicans are allowed to discuss everything except vaccine conspiracies, you aren't discriminating against republicans, so this analogy about banning individuals doesn't work. And of course you might ban a particular individual from the premises for repeatedly breaking those rules.

All of this seems perfectly reasonable, and indeed I know real-world spaces that operate more or less like this.
Super personal anecdote but…

I had that game, and seriously gave up on it due to the light. Then one summer at MIT they were offering some nerdy classes for high school kids and my parents let me take a couple. For whatever reason I ended up having to wait around for a long time, so I brought my GBA.

It was then I found this area with amazing natural light coming from the ceiling. And I realized I could finally play castlevania! It ended up being one of my favorite games.
What does not make sense to me is that YouTube Premium does not let you opt out of any tracking.

So Google asks that people pay $12 a month to not see ads, but still uses watching behavior to build a user profile to advertise to in all other mediums.

Do I have this correct? How does google explain the value proposition? Is the real cost of YouTube (sans tracking) greater than $12 a month?

You're talking about cost. And you're right if it was about cost. I'm telling you, from first hand experience, it's not about cost. It's about taxes.

The reason for the high telco prices are taxes. And no government can lower the taxes, because those same tax rates are set in debt repayment contracts with the IMF, World Bank, etc...
I used this algorithm to generate minigolf courses [1].

I used this repo [2].

The algorithm is literally just a constraint solver. I'm pretty sure it's pretty similar to the sudoku solver I wrote in prolog for a university course.

It's kinda pretentiously named and described, probably because its more academic to do that. It's just a constraint solver.

I got a lot of the old feeling of Tie Fighter back playing the new Star Wars Squadrons with a HOTAS setup but it didn’t quite hit the mark. The storyline, especially with the hidden missions, was just so wonderfully cynical and dark in Tie Fighter and Squadrons doesn’t have this.

Gameplay-wise it’s quite similar however.
I'm not a relativist, I believe morality is a real objective thing, but that it's socially constructed. Morality is more like language than it is like physics.

To your last point, you can substitute one for the other, I stand by the original point in either case. I haven't heard a convincing case from first principles as to the wrongness of "Google using data to personalize ads". Generally the principle I hear in these cases is very close to "tracking or targeting is inherently wrong", which I reject.

I agree it should not be taken as definitive. However, I do think it makes sense to have done this first, since it provides a relatively quick and low-cost way of finding out if there is anything that justifies a more expensive and time-consuming investigation (that yes, should involve a test of toxoplasmosis antibodies).

It appears that the answer is yes, it justifies such a study.
Interesting to compare with a similar list in ActiveSupport:

https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/main/activesupport/lib/a...

Some parts are reordered, some new parts are added, but there's some definite overlap (ala "conserved sequences" in DNA). The list of "uncountables" is quite a bit more detailed in Mongoose.

I mean, one of my ideas requires many transactions and records that require data consistency. I have no idea how to make sure it can scale to Internet scale. Do you know any good resources? Or is it just "get mysql, pay thousands a month for either a cloud provider or colocated hardware"
Replying to myself to clarify a couple of things further. I'm not disagreeing with the idea of an IT accident review board, and I agree in general we should focus on eliminating bugs, maybe what PHK means is having even more details of the bugs, i.e. the specific coding mistakes, issues with internal processes in Fujitsu that led to the bugs being released, etc. and a database containing this and other company's mistakes that others can learn from.

I just don't think the bugs here are especially interesting compared to bugs in other software of similar complexity. In any other situation it goes like this:

customer: hey vendor, this software has bugs
vendor: whoops, sorry, here's a fix

or even this:

customer: hey vendor, this software has bugs, and they're so bad we're suing you (which may have been appropriate in this case if the bugs caused financial loss)

not this:

customer: hey vendor, this software has bugs, and we've sent our employees to prison because we don't want to admit the bugs exist.
vendor: wtf?

That's a cultural / judicial problem and I just don't believe the reaction should be to focus on preventing other companies creating similar bugs.
The "active display area" of a CRT is 224 vertical pixels - all of those pixels are intended for display. The actual number of scanlines is 240. The top 8 and bottom 8 rows of pixels are not intended for display. This is the overscan area. 90s era CRTs were generally very accurate in their overscan calibration. Although there might have been a very small range of error, generally, the intended 224 scanlines were being displayed.

I might be wrong, but it seems you are under the impression that a percent of the active display area was used for overscan. That would only occur if the TV was not calibrated correctly. That's the reason hardware manufacturers instructed developers to not put important content too close to the edge of the screen. However, developers absolutely would have assumed most TVs were displaying the active display area accurately, which is why in the 90s most games had HUDs extending to the edge of the active display.

But this is all really beside the point, because if you watch the posted video, you can see countless examples of how GBA developers had to account for the massively reduced vertical resolution. Look at the Super Mario World example - the GBA version is massively zoomed in, greatly reducing the amount of the screen that is visible.
Subscription Analytics at Scale
I think that's a fair point, and that's the primary reason I'm not a Premium customer.

However, it's important to distinguish this completely reasonable point, that the product may be overpriced or provide less value than it should, vs an argument that Google is "unethical" for offering it.

Rust usage is growing pretty quickly, a lot like C++ at its age. "Extremely" is a meaningless term in this context.

"Used by <Big Company>" means much, much less than most people who mention it believe. The bigger the company, the more likely it is that they use literally anything at all you can think of, and the correspondingly less it means that they do. They might even be using it in a certain project deemed strategic. But we all know how many of even "strategic" projects at big companies end up canceled, even when they seemed to be a success. You can be certain that they are not using it for anything central to how the company makes its money.

It is more interesting when a $company uses $newtech where it will only have an income if the project succeeds. But you probably never heard of $company, otherwise, so have no way to evaluate how important it is.

SpaceX has said publicly it uses C++ for mission-critical work. Like other $billions companies, they do a lot of things. Saying they do Rust, too, makes them seem edgy in circles where people are likely to hear about it, regardless of how much they actually depend on it. So it is really hard to tell.
I don’t know why you are being downvoted rather than being argued against.

I agree with you in spirit. To an individual with thousands of followers, no single follower is more important than the mass. Obviously one of these followers could become a true friend, but friends dedicate time to nurture their friendships, and realistically nobody has enough time to keep that many friendships.
