>the mathematical formalism of Newtonian Mechanics admits non-deterministic solutions. That's all.

I wouldn't say "that's all." If it actually does admit nondeterministic solutions (I am not convinced that there is no property or axiom buried in the formalism that forbids this case somehow), then the next question is, does quantum mechanics, which implies classical mechanics, admit nondeterministic solutions? If not (wave mechanics has a way of ignoring weird stuff when it only happens at a point), that would make quantum mechanics a consequence of determinism, a fairly shocking possibility.
Thank you so much I will try some of these!

I ended up messaging him and apparently he does not know either. Your claim seem like an unsubstantiated accusation with the objective of smearing someone without giving them the chance to defend themselves, without the ability to confirm, deny, debunk, or even apologize. This seems to be a common theme (such as when you did not give mst the chance to respond to the CAT allegations). It is sad that we have ended up in a Kafkaesque situation where the accused can't even know what he is being accused of.

IPV6 is in many ways a simpeler protocol then IPv4. for instance, it has a significantly simpeler header then IPv4, it does not duplicate the broadcast behaviour of ethernet but relies on multicast instead.

Some parts of IPv6 are complex (mainly, IPsec) but those are not required to get an operational ipv6 network.

SLAAC & NDP are both significantly more simple then ARP and Automatic addressing under ipv4.

[SQL injection]

> It's a class of error that can be entirely ruled out at the language/API level, through use of static types.

Repeating this claim doesn't make it true.

Once again: this has nothing to do with static vs. dynamic types, and everything to do with modelling.

To make this clear, let's compare a dynamically and a statically type-checked version of this with the model of SQL as just strings.

Both the dynamically and the statically type-checked version of this program will be susceptible to SQL injection attacks. The statically type-checked version will verify at compile time that all the values are indeed strings.

Now let's compare a dynamically and a statically checked program with a proper model for the SQL, not strings.

Both of these will not be susceptible to SQL injection attacks.

It has nothing to do with static vs. dynamic, and everything with how you model the problem.

Hierarchical component based designs have been around in game-dev for ages. I first used them in '05 but I remember prior art even before then. It was pretty common to have a declarative way to define components(usually through a scripting language like Lua or sometimes custom DSL).

I agree on the performance aspect, any inner-loop stuff always was down in a native language or heavily JIT'd path, but even then data layout drove it even more which usually required structuring the upstream systems ahead of the core logic. It's the reason why there's no "one-size fits all" game engine. They all make very discrete trade-offs in terms of entity counts, open world vs constrained layout and the like.

I’m not sure what your point is.

The Afghani military and government collapsed far faster than anyone anticipated. We knew they would fail—our estimates (that were wrong) were still a question of _when_ the state collapses, not _if_.

Did we ever have enough helicopters in the country? Sure, probably. But part of leaving the country involves taking our stuff out of the country. We left Bagram a week or two ago.

Now the situation in the ground has changed. Yes, in retrospect, with information we didn’t have then, it would be nice to have more helicopters. But even though we have more in the US military, you can’t Amazon Prime overnight ship a helicopter. We are sending more troops.

The comment about locks checking visas is snarky, but also uninteresting. We’re talking about an emergency evacuation in a failed state that’s a hotbed for terrorism. Of course we should know who we’re bringing into aircraft and prioritize people we know and who have been vetted for visas.

As with any field in a capitalist society, good things can only really come from those who care more about what they're working on than about any associated profit-motive.

I do think that many journalists in the past operated this way. They would chase a story not because it was profitable, but because it was important. Not all of them, maybe not even most, but many. Nobody goes into journalism for the huge paychecks.

And of course some people like this still exist, but:

Anecdotally, it seems to me like there's been a shift across all sectors (not just journalism) away from professional integrity or civic duty and towards cynical profit-motive. You can see it in everything from hospitals, to universities, to technical companies like Boeing.

I don't know if it's because the people who used to care care less, or because the people who never cared are being put in charge. I don't know if centralization/acquisition is to blame, or stock market pressures, or private equity, or some cultural phenomenon. But it feels like we're only careening further down this path with each passing year.

> Why? He proved it mathematically without needing to Lift the entire system into a Functor. Everything works fine here.

I have no idea why you bring up functors. Are you thinking of functionals?

Anyway, constrained systems are awkward in Newtonian dynamics, and are much more natural to solve in Lagrangian mechanics, which can avoid some class of errors. Anyway…

> You didn't read the site. All of this is addressed and anticipated. This is an unsubstantiated comment where you barely read the article.

I did, and he does not. The fact is that in Newtonian mechanics, an object at rest cannot start moving without a change in the applied forces. By definition, if it does, then it does not follow Newtonian mechanics. His explanation is thoroughly unconvincing, because on whichever side you place T, the acceleration is discontinuous at T (continuity meaning lim_{t->T+} a = lim_{t->T-} a = a(T) ). At this point, it’s about as well-founded as any random perpetual motion construct.

The whole dome setup is a troll. There is nothing in the principles he mentions that would not work with an ordinary, half-spherical dome, if it did in fact work. His specific dome sounds suspiciously like an artificial setup to get people hung up in irrelevant mathematical details (on top of being generally unphysical).

> Imagine that your at the rim of the dome and you flick the ball upwards with the perfect amount of force so that the ball rolls up the dome and rests perfectly at the apex for an indefinite amount of time. Now imagine this scenario time reversed. Boom. Newtons laws are time reversible and so is this scenario. If the time reversed scenario is able can intuitively occur then so can the time reversed scenario which is EXACTLY what norton is describing.

But that would not happen, because it is non-Newtonian. What he does in fact demonstrate is that a ball with exactly the right energy does not arrive at the apex in a finite time. He got the contradiction right, but sided the wrong way. Besides, he even mentions himself that the ball would not arrive in a finite time, and we are supposed to believe that this trajectory is the time-inversion image of a ball that definitely leaves the apex in a finite time.

There is just too much wrong in this example, and I suspect you are in way over your head.

I've thought about it, and as far as I can tell, there is no need to construct this dome in such a strange way. A trajectory away from from an unstable equilibrium will always start out with zero kinetic energy, and I can't think of any cases where you couldn't stitch together no motion at the equilibrium for t<0 with motion away from it after that to get a solution that obeyed Newton's laws and conservation of energy at all times.

That's not a resolution to the philosophical issue, but it could help us come up with one, given that some other systems are so much simpler but have the same property.

So, if anyone wants to think about this, you can think about x''(x) = -x^2 just as productively, without the extra complexity.
>That said, you can change it very easily. Just offer IPv6 traffic at a slightly lower rate than IPv4.

How many cents per month will make you or anybody care?

ISPs don’t even pay for the majority of their bandwidth, they get it for free via settlement free peering. Where’s the rebate going to come from that?

On the fraction of bandwidth ISPs pay for, the wholesale rates are less than 5 cents per Mbps. On average a subscriber uses a few Mbps on average.

Would 15 cents per month really motivate you to go all in on IPv6?

On average bandwidth costs for an ISP are single digit percentages or less of all costs. Even if their wholesalers would fully discount all their IPv6 traffic (why would they do that?!) there’s only so much there to work with.

That is one of the most confusing pieces of C code I have seen lately. And it fails on an empty string: I would expect it to set b to 1 for an empty string, but it sets it to 0. Of course that could easily be fixed by setting b to 1 at the top.

Also, code like this should always be put inside a function that returns a value, not just written inline. Making it a function allows simpler and more understandable code too.

The funniest part is that it is not necessary to call strlen() at all! The whole thing can be written in a single pass over the string. Here is how I would code it in C:

int OnlyDigits( char str[] ) {
for( int i = 0; str[i] != '\0'; ++i ) {
if( str[i] < '0' || str[i] > '9' ) return 0;
}
return 1;
}
