Interfaces instead of subclassing is clear as an alternative and it has the benefit of allowing multiple inheritance.

It's unclear what "function based" and "annotation based" would mean though.

If you mean passing closures that implement a specific contract, that's in effect "interface based" again. And annotations seem orthogonal in terms of use cases (also full disclosure, I find about 99% of annotation use to be poorly designed and leading to unnecessary static coupling).

> the US has the GDP to outlast declining Russia

I particularly look forward to Russia’s declining influence as the world transitions away from oil. As much as people like to criticize US leadership and government, the Kremlin is on a whole different level (and I’m glad that this isn’t such a controversial sentiment among liberals since 2016).
I think the American people have forgotten some important small-r republican principles. They have forgotten tolerance, accepting that others may have differing values and opinions, but that we need not force them to agree with us. They have forgotten that every power you let "your guy" exercise is going to be turned on you by "the other guy". They have forgotten that loyalty should be to principles, not parties or individuals, because a true principle never turns hypocrite. And they have forgotten that the responsibility for preserving liberty rests with them, not politicians, not Supreme Court justices. There are structural problems, yes, but I believe the root cause is the people's lack of education in these points.

The system is made out of people.
When you bag your trash and bring it out to the curb for pick-up and eternal storage in a landfill somewhere you normally think it's just that: eternal. But there's no reason to think that the landfills of today will be inviolate in the future. They're absolutely jam packed full of useful rare metals and materials. I think eventually garbage mining will be a common practice.

In Vernor Vinge's "Rainbow's End" they have this book scanning machine that just shreds the books then scans all the sheds super fast as they fly by and reassembled computationally the documents (like how DNA is read). Sometimes I worry about a future where this is possible with garbage and garbage mining is happening. Not only would a garbage mining company be able to sell the materials but the vast amounts of detailed very personal information stored discretely in each person or family's bag would also be invaluable. There would be economic motives to automate information retrevial from landfill garbage mining.

Depending on how far in the future this happens it could either be a privacy nightmare or a cultural treasure.
I don't think the people making the law are fools. If they didn't put in a size requirement, that's on purpose.

Also big cars don't congest much more than small cars, do they? When you take into account the space between vehicles, the difference isn't that great.

(And again if the issue is expensive cars specifically, you don't want a congestion charge or a fuel charge, you want a supercar charge or a high-income charge.)

Yes, crypto is being manipulated and distorted by the wealthy and powerful. It's sad to see. But it's still beneficial to the average person to have other options outside of the current system.
It doesn't seem like they ignore it. Sailors might be a decent analogue for astronauts while isolated within a space vessel, but that's not what this experiment is. NASA wants to research the environment while on a Martian surface mission, including doing stuff like suiting up in spacesuits to go do work outside, deal with communication delays, and having research responsibilities.

It's somewhat similar to being confined on a sailing ship, but is still different, and the minute details really matter for something like this.

Peasants everywhere work full time, all through the year. For people who are just managing to survive, there is always something that needs doing.

Growing or foraging and preparing food (especially manually milling grain); making (starting from raw plant/animal fibers), patching, and cleaning clothing; building hedges, fences, walls, and thatched roofs; making pottery; making and maintaining tools; taking care of animals; .... are extremely labor intensive.

A way to avoid that problem is to make the carbon tax more targeted in the beginning. People in rural are not in danger if we started to tax oil, gas and coal power plants based on how much they pollute.

After that we can add a carbon tax to the transportation sector by adding a tariff that scale with carbon pollution.

After that, carbon tax newly built home heating systems.

After that, continue to add new carbon taxes while monitoring who get effect until one can't add more without harming people who has no choice.
I second this — I love the taste of quality black coffee but the bad stuff really does need help (for me some cream). It can be a huge difference. Also the origin — this is a subjective thing, but I agree with the parent that single origin Central American is ideal by my tastes. Nicaraguan medium-dark roast, freshly roasted and ground. (Freshness is also very important).

I’ve seen companies destroy their stock rather than let it be sold at a lower value or given away. It’s protect their ‘brand’. It’s not all about the law.
As a followup, to be clear on the intentions in my post, while I do think that a lot of the reactions have been over the top (there are numerous comments claiming outright falseshoods about this system, out of either ignorance or to prejudice), that Apple decided to do the CSAM stuff on device is incredibly ill considered.

Do it in the cloud just like every other service does. None of this anger would have happened if they just kept it in the cloud, and I truly can not fathom how this made it this far. I would peg overwhelming odds that they abandon the on device idea as it makes no sense and has brought incredible ill will.
You're another member of the CalyxOS community group involved in spreading misinformation about GrapheneOS across platforms. It's plainly visible that we didn't start anything in this thread but rather that you folks spreading misinformation about GrapheneOS through talking points misrepresenting it.

The harassment of our developers, raids on our channels and misinformation being spread by your community needs to stop.

Any time anyone brings up CalyxOS or GrapheneOS, you folks show up to attack GrapheneOS with these talking points.

As usual, you're trying to accuse the people you're attacking of being the ones creating the problems. We would NOT be involved in this thread if you folks weren't here misrepresenting what we provide.

>transporting energy via a gas network is more efficient than electrical transmission (<0.1% loss vs 8%).

That's only one half of the equation though. You'd have to integrate the efficiency loss from transmission with the effiency loss from burning gas in multiple smaller generators rather than one large one with electrical distribution.
A framework calls your code, but in practice the term is loaded with a set of independent characteristics, such as it being the frame of your entire application, not just an aspect of it (libraries can also "call you" in some cases, no one forbids a library from taking in a callback function or an object).

And with that, frameworks often become their own universe, where external components need to be "integrated" with the framework in order to enable using them pragmatically at all. So you either rely on the framework for everything, or you go looking for plugins for the framework, or if you need functionality outside it, it has to be integrated.

Inversion of control is a great principle when used with care. In the hands of amateurs, it's used to just replicate the unit version of a "god object", where your entire application becomes a unit defined by the framework.
> Even if there was humiliation, it was humiliation with a $400M+ payout to Adam Neumann. Softbank set up a really bad example in the industry:

AFAIK has always been this way for at least a decade.

An example would be Docker , has raised more than 200M yet it had no decent stream of revenue , it's litterrally a dead man walking yet the CEO left the boat years ago with tens of millions...

Startups that failed and have their founders go "bankrupt" are startups that you never ever hear about... The rest of startups you'll find on HN or have raised 100M+ millions often have their founders pocket millions when they raise very large amount ( 50M+ )...

There no surprise here , once you manage to get a business to a certain valuation / run-rate it's worth a lot thus you can trade that for cash , regardless of the "humiliation"
It seems to me like 10Gbps is already “cheap enough” to use where it’s appropriate. DAC (copper) is crazy cheap and fiber/UTP are also pretty cheap. 30m (~100 ft) OM3 fiber is $25 retail; SFP+ 10G fiber modules are $20.

That's not exactly how that works. The light from galaxies and other Deep Sky Objects (DSOs) are too faint for the human eye. Only with much more sensitive electronic chips or the longer accumulation of photons from long exposures do we get to see these DSOs. Also, a lot of these DSOs are hidden out of the visible light spectrum.

So if the earth was to suddenly lose its atmosphere today, we wouldn't be seeing DSOs tonight. However, the stars and stuff we can see would suddenly stop twinkling.
> Pain is in the mind. There can be pain where there is no physical problem, and there can be no pain where there is a serious problem

My left shoulder was mostly unusable after a subaccromial decompression surgery that was meant to make the shoulder less-unusable. Doctors told me to see PT, PT had me do the same waste-of-time banded pull aparts and subscap work. Imaging suggested there wasn't a structural problem and PT never really listened to anything I had to say. So, as do most, I stopped going.

Eventually I got tired of being immobilized and I just started doing what I wanted to do. I lifted weights and just clenched my teeth during the periods of extreme pain during various movements. Lo and behold, the issue was mostly related to lots of muscles being very weak from the changes in movement patterns to accommodate the extreme pain. None of the PTs allowed me to do any movements other than rotator cuff band work. Bench pressing for 2 weeks had me largely out of pain.

The state of doctors/phsyiotherapists/physical therapy is a joke. At this point I would consult a bullshit crossfit box owner before going to a doctor for movement deficiencies.
> most people prefer the non-supply managed products, taking into account the pros/cons.

I don't think they pros/cons they listed (i.e. price differences) are reflective of reality. Specifically, they list milk as $2.25/L, citing statscan as a source. This is $9 per 4L bag, an absurd price outside of the Territories. Reviewing the actual statscan data source [1], milk prices have been very stable at $1.25 to $1.37 per liter as long as they're been recording data. So I don't know where $2.25 came from. The second source they listed is crowdsourced and refers to milk costs as $0.62 per 0.25L which might be accurate if you're buying a 250ml or 500ml carton with your lunch ... but not if you're buying a larger quantity to take home (and to make useful economic comparisons with).

> only ~40% "support" it, so concluding that "most of us are very happy to support supply management" is a stretch.

That's firmly in Majority territory when it comes to Canadian politics :). There's a reason even the conservative party (the only political affiliation with more people opposed to supply management than supporting it) will not touch the issue.

The most interesting data in that study was the age-based breakdown - younger respondents were much more likely to support supply management, apparently.

I don't think that's automated meta analysis. It's meta research, which is not the same thing. Take a look at the MediKanren papers. This is logic programming and it's not based on statistics, but first order logic.

In fact, it's a kind of expert system. But in the 80's, expert systems didn't have access to that:

Yes. If Apple takes the “we're not going to” stance, then this could be okay… but they've been doing that less and less, and they only ever really did that in the US / Australia. Apple just isn't trustworthy enough.
Miners only control transaction inclusion/ordering. That's the only thing that a 51% attack will grant you. You still can't forge coins or make unauthorized transfers. You can do double spend attacks and tank the trust of the network, but I'm skeptical whether that's actually worth it. It's probably cheaper to send death squads to users/merchants/exchanges.
1. Sure once we're under way but that doesn't change how good they are from a first strike perspective.

2. As a species we can land a rocket on a barge, do you think we can't land a big crowbar on a slowly moving target?

3. Might make 2 more difficult but a 1-ton tungsten rod is pretty durable.

Certainly more potent against a static target but with modern tech and one skilled, ethically ambivalent engineer, these days you could probably hit a row boat.
> Is it that much of a surprise that psychoactive drugs treat psychogenic symptoms?

The surprising part is the growing narrative that these psychoactive drugs are basically miracle cures without downsides.

Drugs like LSD are being explored as adjuncts to intense therapy spanning many sessions, but the pop-science portrayal of these drugs ignores that intense therapy and instead imagines that tripping on mushrooms or LSD is a cure for psychiatric illness. It also ignores the fact that bad trips are a very real possibility and worsening of psychiatric illness is not uncommon among illicit users of these drugs. There are plentiful reports of psychedelics causing weeks or months of dysphoria or even precipitating long-lasting episodes of major depression, and it’s not hard to find them either.

If we want to get anywhere with these substances, we need to quit exaggerating their positive effects and downplaying their negatives. That’s a setup for failure when they’re further studied and the reality can’t match the unreasonably loft pop-culture presentation of these drugs as miracle cures that act alone without any downsides.

It is, as the grandparent comment said, reminiscent of the early days of opioids when we were bombarded with stories about how they were miracle cures without downsides. The truth is that they’re helpful in controlled circumstances but can be harmful when overdosed or prescribed without supervision, which doesn’t sound that different then the situation with drugs like ketamine.
Cool story bro!

If you don't agree that's fine. Don't buy. If other people buy and have a different opinion it doesn't hurt you at all.
To an extent List Comprehensions are, if not a fix, at least an analgesic. But FP is definitely a case of The Future is Here, It's Just Not Evenly Distributed. Calling it an 'advance' might be a stretch, at this point. Lost wisdom?

I would chalk the complexity of the example you provided up to the inability of half of developers to handle four nested conditionals, and for most of the rest to handle five.

I sort of handwaved over the Death By A Thousand Cuts scenario, which I definitely believe is important. It doesn't matter how idiomatic your code is if you have enough of it. I don't maintain that idiomatic code is free by any means. It just doesn't have the factorial surface area of spaghetti code. It scales better, but scale absolutely matters.

If you count conditional branches, you'll see that parts of this code are pushing up against those limits. You're definitely into 'how' territory, but you've also shunted it off to a function that just 'does stuff'. So my code that relies on this for step 1 of a bigger answer doesn't give a shit (as long as the answer is correct, including boundary conditions).

How exactly can they do that? It doesn't look like they've a clue - all they know how to do is to tax, spend and boss people around.

Let's see - has much has Germany lowered global temperature after hundreds of billions of dollars in taxes since the 90's? 0.001C? More? Less?

Can anyone quantify positive results measured in terms of temperature?

> all cloud companies in the US are required to inspect photos for CSAM)

This is extremely disingenuous. If their devices uploaded content with end to end encryption there would be no matches for CSAM.

If they were required to search your materials generally, then they would be effectively deputized-- acting on behalf of the government-- and your forth amendment protection against unlawful search would be would extended to their activity. Instead we find that the both cloud providers and the government have argued and the courts have affirmed the opposite:

In US v. Miller (2017)

> Companies like Google have business reasons to make these efforts to remove child pornography from their systems.
As a Google representative noted, “[i]f our product is associated with being a haven for abusive content and conduct, users will stop using our services.” McGoff Decl., R.33-1, PageID#161.

> Did Google act under compulsion? Even if a private party does not perform a public function, the party’s action might qualify as a government act if the government “has exercised coercive power or has provided such significant encouragement, either overt or covert, that the choice must in law be deemed to be that of the” government. [...] Miller has not shown that Google’s hash-value matching falls on the “compulsion” side of this line. He cites no law that compels or encourages Google to operate its “product abuse detection system” to scan for hash-value matches. Federal law disclaims such a mandate. It says that providers need not “monitor the content of any [customer] communication” or “affirmatively search, screen, or scan” files. 18 U.S.C. § 2258A(f). Nor does Miller identify anything like the government “encouragement” that the Court found sufficient to turn a railroad’s drug and alcohol testing into “government” testing. See Skinner, 489 U.S. at 615. [...] Federal law requires “electronic communication service providers” like Google to notify NCMEC when they become aware of child pornography. 18 U.S.C. § 2258A(a). But this mandate compels providers only to report child pornography that they know of; it does not compel them to search for child pornography of which they are unaware.
As long as you use no cloud services there’s no privacy issue right now. If you do use cloud services it doesn’t matter if you use Apple or not.
