We tried to write a compiler in a functional language and it went too slow, took too long to write, was hard to find developers. Then half the programers fled, and we had to switch to an adult approach. Now everything is going great. Once in a while a new hires asks whey we didn't write the compiler in a language suited for compiler development, like say Haskell.
Is dockless app based bike sharing popular in US cities?
Yeah this seems weird. If the price of bitcoin had gone down, would he owe the government extra money?
This correct, to me that would mean paying taxes when switching between fiat and cryptocurrency which I support as one option.

What I dont support is taxing when switching in between crytocurrencies. Which in the analogy would be me exchanging my potatoes for carrots. Imagine if I had to pay taxes on my exchanged potatoes while I didnt make a dime on that.
AFAIK this also was the approach adopted by the Mongols, as early as during the 13th century (Golden Horde khanate).

Delta is pretty bad isn't it?

I don't think this is news to anyone. There is increasing evidence that the length of protection vaccination gives is less than ideal - hence the need to booster shots.

> I see now that they just posted an update since this thread started[1] and after the approval was announced. This will increase my posterior belief that the update had been held back to happen after the approval announcement for political reasons.

It came out on a Monday instead of a Friday. There was zero evidence of any political interest in the date of the release of this data before, and there are thousands of potential explanations for any delay. But sure.
Algorithms? yes, basic algorithms and sorting and Big O, none of which I've needed in 10 years of professional and hobby dev work. But to say "well you learned data structures and you use hashmaps and arrays so obviously it helped" is a very strange defense of academia. I can also learn "datastructures" online in a few days of studying as a new dev, so that's not really a good defense of 4 years of study.

On the curve, hospital beds are basically flat compared to a covid spike. There is no rational amount of beds that is enough, because bed estimates are always a guess: wrong and wasteful because too many and then suddenly too few. And then you need doctors and nurses. And the disease spikes in one area and then another. Do you ship beds around?

Easier to take personal responsibility than depend on the government or whoever is meant to parachute in all the beds and doctors to save us from our own misunderstanding of exponential growth curves.
I used to cycle as a means of transportation. Much faster than walking, on par with the bus, paid for itself in six months from money saved in transit fees.

I would generally order nothing online because I didn't have the education or interest to know what I was buying or what needed done. Part of the value of a good, physical shop is the relationship you form with people and being able to trust their expertise. I definitely needed some one I could look in the eye, explain my problem, and ask them to solve it for me.

I don't say this to contradict you necessarily, especially in your primary point, just to offer a very different perspective.
The framing of New Zealand's approach as "working great" is also very highly opinionated. My NZ colleagues are all starting to get sick of this approach, and even the ones that fully support it are realizing that having no international travel and a couple of 6 week nationwide lockdowns every year is not a viable long-term solution.

If you look at how far NZ has gotten in regards to overcoming the virus, it's clearly very far behind most of the world. It's done a good job so far of reducing the harm caused directly by infection, but in many ways it's just tried to lock itself into a time bubble in early 2020. The world is starting to move on, and NZ has put itself in a rather bad position of having to try and catch up. The longer it sticks with this approach, the harder it's going to be.
It's not. "Forced error handling" in Rust (particularly when contrasted with something like Go like we're doing here) is exemplified with the Option and Result types, and how the compiler will maintain type safety around the concepts of success and error. ADTs are what lets it do that, and the MLs do that as well. You can also see this in how Typescript for example uses ADTs for typesafe error/success state space enumeration.
I’m missing the aptness. Can you explain? Most nations as a whole fall down on the “whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me”. Nothing to do with the article, God doesn’t have anything to say about social media.

Reading the story, it appears that the bitcoins were held by the police and only recently were some sold for cash.

"But by the time the Swedish Enforcement Authority began auctioning off the crypto, bitcoin had skyrocketed in value — and only three had to be sold to amount to the value that was booked as the dealer’s profit at the time of his arrest."

If the police confiscated everything you owned to cover a fine for $100, isn't it reasonable to get the difference back?
From that list the only valid points I see are -

a) animations. yes you have to do it manually in Lazarus. or you can spend few days and write a component which would animate any published property of any component on a form. Will take a few days to write it in a flexible way and not to be ashamed to submit in public repo. I suspect such component maybe written by someone already but since I did not need it I did not research the area.

b) Debugger is a sore point. It is adequate but falls way of behind what you have in browser or in Delphi (commercial IDE Lazarus is trying to imitate). But they're not standing still and it is getting better.

c) A11y - Highly unfamiliar with the subject so you are most likely correct here.
Ok, so you are largely misunderstanding the details.

> Creating a novel on-device scanning mechanism and claiming that is somehow more privacy is a lie, and therefore shady.

Would you rather Apple actually directly look at your images? If not then it is a privacy improvement. Because they are legally required to search their servers for this stuff when directed to by the FBI.

> Using that novel on-device scanning capability to secretly report people to authorities, that’s beyond shady.

Except they don’t actually do that, phones don’t get the hashes to do any comparisons. Sever side comparisons only flags images which causes Apple employees to look at down samples images. Critically they don’t have the authority or incentives to prosecute you.

> suing any companies that try to analyze the code running, is mega shady.

In fact it makes it seem the fault of the prosecutor even and not the court. Quotes from the prosecutor from the Telegraph article.

> "I think we should probably invest in an internal education in the [prosecution] authority, as cryptocurrency will be a factor we'll be dealing with to a much greater extent than we are today. The more we increase the level of knowledge within the organization, the fewer mistakes we will make."

I'm not familiar with the swedish legal system (and not a lawyer), but often you can only be convicted for things the prosecution requests/accuses you of. Otherwise you can't defend yourself in court.

So the prosecution ordered the bitcoin to be seized as proceeds of the crime, but not in a correct way, so the court ruling contained the same wording that a specific value in swedish Kronen shall be seized. Had the prosecution demanded the seizure in terms of Bitcoin instead, the court would probably have approved it too. However, at this point it's too late to change the ruling. Courts exist to settle things, and one can't simply re-roll a prosecution case unless there were grave mistakes.

> The "peace deal" that Trump signed with the Taliban last year literally assumed the Taliban would quickly takeover the country once the U.S. withdrew

Actually, no. Trump's Doha agreement implied a 14 month staged, gradual, condition based withdrawal, with no people or materiel left behind. Which, on top of that, would be aborted if Taliban tried to pull off what they pulled off over the past couple of weeks.

But Trump's Doha agreement would not allow Biden to take credit "by 9/11", so he scrapped it and withdrew haphazardly, without any conditions, leaving thousands of people and billions in materiel behind enemy lines. He owns this now.

When people talk about this they're not talking about 747s or private aircraft 10k feet in the air. They're talking about small planes in airports and low to the ground.

Or how about how everyone was anti mask in the beginning, including the CDC, WHO, and my very liberal coworkers. When I said it would be advisable to wear a mask when in crowded places March, 2020 - I was heckled for not following the science.

Hindsight is always 20/20, early on the virus was not believed to be airborne, only spread through relatively large droplets from coughing/sneezing which you'd likely only encounter in close contact with an actively ill person. Plus, Fauci had the responsibility to preserve masks for those that would be exposed directly to infected people - the medical workers and first responders.

The first lockdown in the USA was mid-march, and the mask guidance had already changed by the beginning of April as we understood more about how the disease spread.

Early guidance (and news coverage) also recommended sanitizing surfaces to prevent the spread of the disease, but surface contact was later found to be a less significant mode of transmission.

As far as making the vaccines political, well they don't have to be. some research has shown that they don't do very well at stopping spread, so why all the fuss to force people to get vaccinated? just say do it for yourself if you want to, politics removed.

People with serious diseases are being turned away from hospitals or asked to reschedule appointments/visits because hospitals are overwhelmed with COVID patients (and healthcare workers are being pushed to the limit). Vaccines are a public health decision, not a personal decision.
"Who even cares?" It takes empathy-blinders to not see this. Think of all the people whose livelihoods were incredibly damaged by Coronavirus: the children whose parents died alone in an ICU and no one was allowed to see them; the young fathers who couldn't be with their wife as she gives birth; the millions who lost jobs; the thousands upon thousands of businesses and cultural events ended.

This is a material worsening of society and our economy, that's why people care. Do you even care about the happiness and health of fellow humans?

This can be a scientific rather than an engineering discipline, insofar as it's concerned with understanding the behavior of systems, rather than creating a solution which makes a system behave according to our wishes.

We have a limited understanding of "order" or patterns arising out of systems with many aggregating interactions, and often focusing on relatively idealized and isolated systems.

There's not _that_ many algorithms or data structures you see in competitive programming, and the vast majority of them aren't advanced. You do need to memorize a good portion of them, but doing so is the easy part towards becoming good at it.

You can read one moderate length book and know all of the DSes and algorithms you'll need for 99.9% of the time. cses.fi/book is a good one with a free version if you're curious.

https://github.com/kth-competitive-programming/kactl may also be of interest, it contains a good amount of the algorithms/DSes you'd ever need on a few printable pages (20ish).
My experience was similar. There were definitely aspects of the history which were somewhat familiar to me. The details, however, really fleshed it out.

What was entertaining / illuminating was asking my more-aware American friends questions based on the book, and seeing what they were, or were not, aware of. Helen Keller's an interesting example to use, because she's taught virtually universally in primary school as a hero of the disability-rights movement: she overcame deafness and blindess to become an author and speaker, schools and childrens' books teach ...

... but not what she spoke and wrote about. Which tends not to fit into the public-school curriculum as well. (Though perhaps its one of those submarine lessons, a seed planted to emerge later.)

I've had a lot of fun asking questions about that, watching peoople look up the story, and minds open. (Usually.)

Yes, you are absolutly correct.

The reason for this is that living things are evolved, rather than designed.

We have seen that even in very simple hardware, when using a genetically evolved design, we end up having circuits that functions as per the requirement [1]. But it ended up being very hard to figure out how the thing actually worked, and when components were removed that seemingly did not have any purpose, the thing stopped working.

And this, in my opinion, points to a very important aspect of evolved systems. We can only have a statistical assessment as you say. But no way to say for sure that, "This and this alone will be the only effect of an intervention".

But we can have some idea, depending on the type of intervention. For example, we can say that something that was part of the evolution, will not interfere with its working, simply because evolution has taken it into account during the process. And here comes the concept of something being "natural" to the organism. So we can say that stuff that is taken orally, is much safer than injected stuff. All through our evolution, we have been taking stuff orally. So a Vaccine is much more like throwing a spanner into our workings, than taking something taken orally. Similarly stuff that were part of our natural environment, during evolution can be considered as safer, as opposed to stuff that were not.

I think this is why mocking the concept of "natural", by saying, "Everything is natural, because it is found in nature", is embarrassingly missing the point..

No, not really, it's an accurate summation of where the pattern is commonly found. ADTs, like Rust's Enum, enable this kind of error handling, and are made more ergonomic with monad behaviors.

Scala's Either[A, B] is another example.

This happened to me. My T-Mobile number was ported to a hacker and they used it to get control of my GMail account. They then tried to use that to get at my Coinbase account. Luckily I had device 2FA enabled on that account so when they realized they couldn’t get in they gave up. Meanwhile though my Google account which has everything was inaccessible to me.

Getting back control of your gmail when all your 2FA and device codes have been reset is very difficult. I had to call in a favor with a friend who worked there. I use true 2FA on all my accounts now.

One thing you can do is call T-Mobile and setup a pass phrase. Phone based customer service won’t do anything for you until you give them that pass phrase.
I ride in bike lanes, road sides and sometimes in the middle of the lane. When I started cycling seriously I tried to go full vehicular cycling, but a lot of the time it endangered more than it helped and made drivers angry. 10K+ miles later the one thing I’ve learned is not to be dogmatic, there is no one safest way to ride for all roads and environments. Some roads are way better with bike lanes and some bike lanes are terrible. I just do whatever seems safest.
