I am not at all surprised by the popularity of Orbán.

An important part is the strong resistance to migrants, which would mean a great influx of mainly Arabs with an incompatible culture and religion compared to Europe.

Look to Sweden to see how it goes when you allow too many migrants into a European country.

On the other hand there are many serious problems with Orbáns rule, e.g. trying to control the free press, not respecting the rights of LGBT.

But to many hungarians it is better to have a controlled migration than all the listed downsides.

Agree on most points. I never truly liked how complex C++ was from day 1, and it definitely got more and more complex over time. I'm using cppreference all the time, which is something I feel I shouldn't need. I also think the C++ i/o library is utter garbage too.

However I also think how we got to the modern C++ standard, and how early we are with Rust.

I think of all the weird C++ features I had to use over time in embedded, and I'm glad I always had the option to have manual control over memory sizing, the ability to alias pointers and everything that you normally wouldn't want or consider unsafe.

I also think of Rust and this hell-bent approach to memory safety, and actually think that on embedded I basically never have dynamic memory allocation, and very rarely have issues with ownership that I could solve nicely (without fighting with the very limited lifetime constraints we can have) with Rust. On small targets there is no memory allocation. There's often no copying at all, because it's too expensive: ids and counters are often exchanged over shared buffers.

What I feel is a massive improvement in terms of safety in embedded are state machine compilers more than memory safety. Think "ragel", or similar compilers. Using these in embedded couple with wither C or C++ is a game-changer.

Memory safety and pointer lifetimes start to be an issue with much bigger targets. I don't have experience with kernel development, but if you can run linux on a platform I would hardly call it "embedded". Or at the very least, we're talking about the very high-end embedded platforms.
As someone who moved countries within the EU, I started looking at things from global perspective, and what matters today is the power balance between EU, US, China. Whereas within EU most countries still look at their own interest, fueled by politicians and their 4-5 years election periods. This is really sad, because the EU is digging their own grave.

Re: your comment, it's not only on nation level. People have tendency to form groups and build their identity on "us vs them" basis. That's why you have rivalries between football clubs from different cities etc.

Anyway, language and culture/history is a powerful thing that people can't get over in us-vs-them thinking. There's also business in play which collides with politics a lot. For example Germany are fine doing business with Russia, while for Poland, Lithuania and other Russia-bordering countries, RU is #1 evil and existential threat.

Thanks to the fact that Modi cannot admit that China has already taken over significant tracts of Indian land, because that would mean admitting that a 56in chest is meaningless when it comes to actual diplomacy, international relations, and the ability to defend ones country.

Company logos on a marketing page are a game: "how best can we leverage our userbase to gain credibility?". I can't speak to Hypercontext (maybe they do have a relationship with Netflix!) but in general when you see a logo on the marketing page of a startup it means "we have _one person_ from this company that signed up to our service with an @company.com email".

You don't need to sell to Netflix to get their logo on your homepage, you just need to convince one person with an @netflix.com email to sign up. Much easier :)

It has actually elicited a response. Through many mechanisms now big countries in Europe have gained much more power than before, when the model was very egalitarian.

And you can look at it in a very different light if you see it as Hungary becoming a small vassal state of Germany (an autocracy helps it to stay that way, and German manufacturers want the situation to remain like this) rather than a "rogue fascist" state. Just follow the money.

If you look at things this way you expect to see a war of sphere of influence of big countries in the near future. I think the Balkans will be the next soft battlefield between German and Italian influence.

In my time it was phone sex. Teenagers with access to parents credit cards will always have things to buy that some will disapprove. Nothing new her. Not even the attempt to make everybody conform the lowest common moral denominator instead of having parents actually supervise their teenagers.

Personally, I don't see why subscribing to a $9 onlyfans account in order to see some tits is so much worse than buying a game.

When it comes to state elections the Modi government has been getting creamed because his subordinates at the state level are not as good as lying to people.
It is way more nuanced than that. For example if you never redistribute your work that was a fork from GPL code, then GPL states it's ok to never give back the source.
Depends how much the states have their own freedom and power (financial marketplace, and military), remember Russia is a federation too.
You are comparing uncomparable, the population of India and EU are composed of very different people with different mindsets, expectations, opinions. Indians are generally much more docile (spent 6 months backpacking all around that place, it is really different in this regard).

Also, comparing diversity is tricky - natives from Lappland have 0 in common with say Greek or Spaniards. Same would go for india's extremes, its rather impossible to say who is more different (personally I would still say Europe, since ways of life are almost the same if you look on India east, south, north, west, very similar cuisine etc... not so much in Europe).

We have proven track of how it doesn't work here in Europe, no need to spin another set of wars to re-confirm it.

Also, India sees quite a bit of domestic terrorism in its eastern parts exactly due to mindsets like yours. Not something we like to see here in Europe.
I think there are 3 stages:

Inexperienced, will buy anything that sounds good and trustworthy, no matter whether snakeoil or real deal, because they don't know better. That is most mom&pop shops.

Burned, will buy/do nothing, because when they were inexperienced they were sold/told crap. Now they trust no-one and also think they can save money.

Experienced, when they had a real disaster in the burned stage, recognized their lack of proper tools and manpower as a reason. Now they try to evaluate suggestions properly through inhouse expertise. Only possible if large enough.
Putting a monetary value on an activity that otherwise doesn't have it fundamentally alters how people think about that activity whether they want to or not. The best example is selling items in MMOs versus achieving them in game. If you put a $100 price tag on a weapon that otherwise takes 200 hours to grind it will ruin the satisfaction people that ground for it got from the item.

This happens... subconsciously and, I think, unavoidably. Commodifying core human interactions will affect sellers whether they want to or not.

Counterpoint: whoever can convince insurance companies that they can reduce car accidents significantly might be in a very good position to strike a nice deal with one or more insurance companies.
I don't recommended this scenario but: the other states could join a new union and leave Hungary and possibly other states outside (the usual split into a good company and a bad one.) Lots of legal disputes but in international law the strongest party always makes the law and shrugs problems away.

BTW, is it rouge (as in French for red) or rogue?
From the type. `data` is a `&Ref<DeviceData>` which means it is a smart pointer to something of type `DeviceData`. `DeviceData` is defined in this module as `type DeviceData = device::Data<PL061Registrations, PL061Resources, IrqDisableSpinLock<PL061Data>>`. I would have to peek at `device::Data` to be sure, but my supposition is that the lock method acts on the `IrqDisableSpinLock` type. I assume that the name is meaningful, making this one a spinlock that disables irqs. This lets each driver using `device::Data` supply the most appropriate type of lock.
EU is primarily an economic bloc and economic interests will carry the day any time, or at least 99 per cent of the time.

Orbán has integrated Hungarian industry deep into German supply chains and milks this fact as much as he can.

> Why not generate the headers from the modules, then users don't have to worry about them.

That's the approach I took; this brings the limitation that the only thing that can be publicly exported from a module are things that are compatible with C code.

It also makes modules useless - what use would a module be if the interface is fully specified in a header anyway? Just read the header.

TBH, I'm still in the design phase so I tend to change my idea of what's good and bad quite frequently.
Don't get me wrong, Prolog is cool... but in 2021, why use a completely different language and not a SAT solver DSL (domain specific language) bound into your favorite imperative language, e.g. Python. Then you get all your favorite libraries for I/O, data transformation, UI/UX, etc.

Examples include Google OR-tools, Microsoft Z3, etc.

I wonder if C is an unsolvable problem. There is some progress being made (revenge porn laws for example), but for the most part, law lags behind. Even if we had robust laws, I doubt law enforcement has the interest and resources to go after such "fans". If resources are stretched, they're gonna pick a murder case to solve than a digital stalker case. It would be more complicated if this so called fan happens to live in another country

Erratum: my grandpa drives worst than FSD with human oversight (like in all the video you can find on Youtube). I didn't meant FSD without oversight, which is not possible anyway. But are we discussing the current level of FSD as a Level 5 system? Don't think so.

I don't think it's reasonable to say that "the far left" encourages young girls to get into sex work but there is a real problem of leftist takes on sex work often being overly positive by overcorrecting for the generally negative attitudes of SWERFs (sex work exclusive radical feminists) and religious conservatives, who are seen as trying to criminalize sex work and promote policies directly harming sex workers (see the recent "human trafficking" bills in the US).

The problem of SWERFs and conservatives harming sex workers is real, but sex work naturally comes with a vulnerability that its defenders often fail to acknowledge. Sex work is inevitable and decriminalizing does seem to help sex workers more than trying to criminalize it but the failure of progressives is that they try to defend sex work but don't put the sex workers themselves front and center in the discussion of if and how it should be regulated and how they can be protected.

All work under capitalism is exploitative and all work that involves emotional labor (e.g. all service work) can be particularly damaging, but sex work is its own separate beast and requires a lot more care than either side of the political spectrum is willing to admit.

A purely class based lens (nor a lens based entirely on rational economics of "voluntary financial transactions) is incapable of fully appreciating the dynamics of sex work because a lot of the problems stem from other systems of oppression (sexism, racism, etc) and their potential for harm is multiplied by the vulnerable nature of the profession.

I think Mexie's recent video[0] on this issue is a good explanation from a radical leftist perspective that is critical of sex work while supportive of sex workers and generally still sex positive.

For a more moderate (and IMO more approachable) leftist analysis still informed by the experience of actual sex workers rather than abstract arguments I can recommend Philosophy Tube's video[1] on the topic. The video doesn't express a clear opinion on the question of sex work but I think it provides a good overview of the problems and the problems with their various "solutions".

Well, there is an easy way to see why basically every anti-depressant will somewhat increase the risk of suicide: many people suffering from depression are already thinking of suicide, but has no motivation even for that. Anti-depressants will try to alleviate the latter one so that the person can actually live their life, but unfortunately that occasionally will also make suicidal thoughts into attempts.

That’s why therapy is a must - the “buttons” drugs can press is simply not fine-grained enough in itself to manage depression.
Same, I've enjoyed using it in a couple of one off scripts and honestly it made writing them more enjoyable because I was kind of excited to see what copilot would do. I asked it to write a js function to clean special characters from a string and it worked perfectly, I think, well it worked perfectly enough for the script to complete.

I can't speak to whether or not using copilot in long lasting projects would be a good idea, but even if you just tagged the copilot generated code with a comment that said '#TODO: Verify this is correct' I still think it would help you get a lot of work done that you would normally have to switch to stackoverflow to do.

One thing that I found very interesting from the article was the idea of anchoring bias, I definitely felt this a lot. When I used copilot to generate some nontrivial functions that were directly related to my problem, if the code did not work and I ended up erasing the generated code completely, I am just realising now that when I reimplemented it myself I was still essentially using the algorithm copilot had come up with.
I would argue that a tribe at least need some kind of a common identity to remain strong, which by nature excludes it from people who lack that identity. An extremely inclusive tribe probably won't be a strong one with a sense of community. An example could be citizenship - we may not relate that much with someone just because he happens to live in the same country, compared to him being also our neighbour or colleague.

The "inconvenient truth" is that C will never really be replaced, just augmented by "better C" languages, or at most wrapped away under language bindings. Even if Zig's goal is to replace C (which is an important motivation to really cover all use cases of C), I think that most non-trivial real-world projects will actually be mixed C/C++/Zig projects, at least for the next few decades.
I compared the three images and they all have minor differences ie. they're not line for line copies. Its merely a use of geometry + diamond shape, where the geometry makes sense because of how it applies to a RL diamond, and like the old SGI logo it tries to create a 3D effect. There's just not much special about this tattoo (e.g. basic shape, small one instead of large one). It is therefore a terrible example. I'd say the same with the mountains. People think they're super original, and then it turns out they weren't. Cause, surprise surprise, there's a lot of people on the planet, wearing a lot of tattoo's, and the digital era makes it easier for these to be copied and found (searching/finding a copy of the tattoo).

Furthermore, it isn't like its copy/pasted. There's real labor involved in making the tattoo, often an example is used. Why can't an existing tattoo be used for such? Well, why not indeed. A tattoo artist wants a satisfied customer, to keep their name, good for business, customer wants therefore best result, etc etc.

When GW2 was released, a developer revealed their gigantic tattoo on their back with the logo, a large two in the form of a dragon, covering their whole back. I thought it was really cool, and wondered about copy cats but because it was so huge I didn't expect that to happen (don't think it did).

Recently I learned tattoo's don't allow you to sweat well, and whenever I see football (soccer) players with a lot of tattoo's I can't help but chuckle (I suppose you can apply this to all physical sports though I'd love to see a chess player full with tattoo's). Which I find also funny given the context of carefully considering the pro's and con's vs spontaneous.
That wasn't an argument defending Tesla or an argument for what ought to be illegal. It was merely an argument against the silly notion that other drivers on the road didn't "opt in" to this. Of course they didn't "opt in"—because that's not how roads work. You share the road with a huge variety of different vehicles, being controlled in a huge variety of different ways. There's no "opt in" for any of it.

I don't disagree with your point. However, i disagree with your tone, particularly using "fringe crackpot theory".

He's not advocating that green men put oil underground. He's promoting a theory that most (majority? some?) of oil has non biotic origins.

Wikipedia itself says there are deposits worldwide that are abiotic, and also refers to this abiotic origin thesis as unlikely. He isn't arguing "wet streets cause rain". We are far from "fringe crackpot theory".

When the dispute is around the question of quantity "how much" vs whether it is physically possible at all, and the question currently is settled in terms of probability (95%~) vs replicable experiment proof (99.99% reliable), we should refrain from using wording that ridicules the other side.
