Hi Paul, not sure if this an appropriate place to mention this but I hope you please consider at some point using OpenGL or Vulkan to at least render the track view in Ardour. I have a large project with around 50 tracks that is extremely slow and laggy to render when zoomed all the way out, it is making the program unusable for me. I could provide a profile to put in a bug report but I'm not sure the best way to go about that. Thanks.

In theory you can do that with any language that has a written form (eg. English). Just that it's counter intuitive and nobody does it that way.

Beyond that - all it takes for Russia or China to provide Iran with nuclear weapons would be Israel or US pushing it too far.

Actually, that may already be something past the point - at this point an attack against Iran will be interpreted as an attack or prelude to attack against Russia or China.

I think this is the reason, people who skip lectures/classes but sit down with the books/notes and work on their homework/problems do pretty well.

If 'expressing desire to obliterate a sovereign nation' is basis for anything, then US should have been sanctioned a few times over. Because it does not only talk about doing such stuff, it does that stuff.

This mirrors my experience, everyone I knew who could speak Spanish well when we were around 4-5 years old, still can 30+ years later even if they rarely speak it with anyone at all.

Now nieces/nephews who might pass for fluent to some when they were 4-6 yr, after only 2-3 years after going to school can hardly form the most basic of sentences and cannot communicate with their parents/grandparents at all. All of this is under an environment where only Spanish is spoken at home. They can still understand it but will probably forget that aswell in time.

The conclusion seems to be that those that are fluent do not forget but those who werent do. I suspect the author considered being able to communicate with her parents as proof she knew the language. Parents can communicate with their children perfectly fine where others would struggle to understand a single word.
All of the work we do in distributed systems and making things redundant and robust and stable, every time I read something about an IBM mainframe I think: “Those IBM engineers figured it all out already!”

From the article:

“ So What Has IBM Done That is So Revolutionary?
In the first paragraph, I mentioned that IBM Z is their big mainframe product – this is the big iron of the industry. It’s built better than your government-authorized nuclear bunker. These systems underpin the critical elements of society, such as infrastructure and banking. Downtime of these systems is measured in milliseconds per year, and they have fail safes and fail overs galore – with a financial transaction, when it is made, it has to be committed to all the right databases without fail, or even in the event of physical failure along the chain.

This is where IBM Z comes in. It’s incredibly niche, but has incredibly amazing design.”
Israel didnt put a stop to anything about Iraq's nuclear program. Iraq never had any program which could even advance into making something that can explode. So dont make up things.
No, it's more of a virtue signaling scheme and a "luxury belief" that brown and black people can't think for themselves, and white liberal upper middle class knows what's best for them. Such as, for example, abolishing the police in high crime lower income neighborhoods and other loony bin shit like that, which does absolutely nothing to help anyone they pretend to care for. These tend to be the same folks who would move out in an instant if black folks started moving into their neighborhood, and won't spare a dime to actually help any of them with anything. It's words, Twitter and Facebook, and little else best I can tell. Purely performative virtue signaling.
It's the same the other way round. I'm a from Hong Kong and I have no trouble reading Kanji in Japan. Once I learned Katakana (which usually just transliterates English) I can also decode 95+% of the things written.

That said, the voice in my head just pronounces the Japanese Kanji in my native Cantonese...

Or maybe once you've weaponized a concept, it's tempting to use it as much as you can.

When being a nerd stopped being shameful and started being cool, all the cool kids started calling themselves nerds for liking Avengers and Harry Potter - why wouldn't you claim the social points that are just lying around?

And when you live in a society that rewards victimhood, when calling someone a bully gives you power over them - of course people will jump at any chance to call themselves a victim.

Since the contents are in-memory, you could imagine a straightforward implementation where the directory hierarchy in the tmpfs is stored in a pointer-based in-memory tree.

A file handle just needs a pointer to where in memory the contents are stored, and the inode numbers are computed on the side because it's part of the interface.

You don't want to use the pointers as inode numbers directly, since for security reasons the kernel doesn't want to export valid kernel pointers to user space.

This coupled with expectations of corporate "social responsibility" results in some pretty nightmarish possibilities. Politically motivated debanking has already been going on for a while, but that is really just the tip of the iceberg. Years ago my financial adviser tried to sell me on this new index that aggregated a bunch of progressive demands (race/sex quotas, etc). The scope of ambition is pretty astounding, because it is structured to be impossible to satiate. We've all gotten use to seeing some SV company announce the latest party they are shunning, but to distill that down to a financial instrument... it is hard to believe that anyone would advocate for such a thing unless they were an accelerationist actively rooting for social collapse.

Many Millennials now have very high-paying and influential jobs but still hold the very anti-capitalist and anti-billionaire views they had during the height of the Occupy Wall Street movement.

It will be interesting how corporations will react to a new generation of Millennial managers and leaders who seek to undermine capitalism.
Australia is pushing for client-side scanning too:

"We know there are a number of solutions that would ensure illegal activity online can be addressed, without weakening encryption and still allowing lawful access to information needed in serious criminal investigations. Solutions include: using certain types of encryption that allow proactive tools to function, implementing proactive detection tools at transmission, rather than on receipt, moving AI and proactive technical tools to the device level."[1]

The main problem with client-side scanning is that to have any effectiveness it requires a situation where "Trusted Computing" becomes a legal requirement for sale and use of computing or communications devices, where only registered operating systems can be installed and software can only be installed from registered application stores. And in terms of the Internet, registered operating systems would have to only permit access to registered web services, and registered web services would find themselves quickly unregistered if they allowed end users to execute their own scripts within a browser session. It'd require the end of "General Purpose Computing"[2] e.g. along the lines of regulations such as [3].

Criminals are being pushed increasingly down the Phantom Secure [4] path (developing their own technology that doesn't implement backdoors, client-side scanning, etc), and in response, public policy is increasingly seeking to outlaw[5] "General Purpose Computing" and the current decentralised model of communications. It'll take a long time, but perhaps over the course of the next 20 years we'll see the end of "General Purpose Computing"?

Well, there was a period of many years when WotC stopped printing the creature type "Demon" out of deference to that assault.

(And if I recall correctly, TSR replaced the terms "devil" and "demon" with "Baatezu" and "Tanar'ri". I don't know whether they had yet been bought out by WotC.)

I was working for a FAANG company and had negotiated internally with another department for a job which I would have been perfect for.

My management chain veto’d the transfer, which was the day I decided to quit. I started looking for opportunities outside that company, and within six months had moved on to a job with significantly more responsibility than my original or other routes within the FAANG.

Companies that prevent internal transfer turn them into external transfers.
>Identitarian does not mean what you think it means.

From context it should be clear that I'm talking about identarianism in the literal sense of the term (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/identitarianism), not the European right-wing political movement that confusingly shares the same label.

>women's suffrage, the US civil rights movement, universal male suffrage

the keyword in those movements is 'suffrage' and 'civil' not 'man' or 'woman'. The reason they were successful is because they were republican movements. Women's suffrage wasn't about women with a capital W having a sort of privileged identity, it was about the opposite, women being treated like equal citizens. Identity politics is the opposite, it is the creation of separate, distinct, protected spaces for groups of people based on some set of features.

Rather than gaining access to the commons, aspiring to universal values which was the goal of desegregation in the civil rights era, women's rights and so forth, identity politics seeks to carve out virtual spaces that are only even understandable if you share said identity. The notion of the a citizen proper goes out of the window.

And the gay rights movement is a good example of that shift, whereas historically it was focused on access to civil rights, nowadays you have clashes between different queer groups. Which part do we include, are TERFS reationary? Are asexuals queer? There is at least half a dozen fronts in this war already about who deserves to be part of the rainbow label.

Completely agree with this - I was totally burned out with work because I kept getting and finishing projects and all that would happen is I would get more projects.

I was burned out but then my boss dragged me in a room and told me I was doing a great job, that they appreciated me and that they know I prefer to work in evenings but get there at 9am every day because that’s my contract, so they said I didn’t need to do that in the future and can arrive whenever I want because they know I work hard enough and will work the hours.

That conversation was enough to completely reset the burnout. No doubt it will come back, but a little appreciation goes a long way.

Well, "incredibly" is a weasel word. 0.05 nanosecond is fast enough for most general use case, you can consider that incredibly slow or fast I guess depending what you compare it against or what your use case is.

The reason it is slower than `nth` is because `first` is a sequence function, so it first coerces the type into a sequence, and then it returns the first element of that sequence. The creation of the sequence object wrapping the vector is what slows it down compared to `nth`, but it is still O(1).
People have adopted burgers, coca-cola, Hollywood movies etc. from The Current Dominant Culture, why wouldn't they parrot things like woke pronouns.
Gendered nouns are kind of silly and antiquated when you think about it though, and many languages have a neuter gender too (e.g. German). The "X" suffix is an attempt by younger Spanish speakers to introduce a neuter gender to their native language.

English doesn't have gendered nouns, but we do have gendered pronouns, which not all languages have. Chinese doesn't have gendered pronouns, which is why you'll often hear native Chinese speakers accidentally refer to a woman in English as "he".

Today, young English speakers are trying to popularize "they" as an English neuter pronoun, and it's not too absurd: we already use "they" this way when the gender of the person is unknown. For example, if you found a random wallet, you might say, "Someone lost their wallet," and it would be acceptable.

Intentionally changing language isn't unprecedented either: in the 1970s, feminists successfully introduced "Ms." as a female equivalent to "Mr." to denote a woman who may or may not be married, (instead of Miss and Mrs.).

Ultimately, most language evolution is driven by young people: they're bending their native tongue to better describe their world. And that's a good thing. Language is supposed to be fluid and dynamic. We shouldn't be constraining our thoughts to a static unchanging language invented by our ancestors to describe their world that no longer exists. It's a tool meant to serve us, we're not meant to limit ourselves to it.
I'm in a similar situation. Living in Germany with a German wife, German neighbors, German speaking friends, my children are the only people I regularly speak Hungarian to. My 6yo daughter speaks well enough when she's around her grandparents for a few days, but with my 3yo son the situation is different: he was born into a family with a German speaking sister, so he barely speaks Hungarian.

The fact that I'm the father, who works more and spends less time with the kids than my wife doesn't help either. I guess it's called mother tongue for a reason.

Donation by competent adults comes down to a similar rationale to cosmetic surgery. The donor says this is specifically what they want to happen, the medic is confident that the donor understands the risk and consents to this procedure despite it, the benefit is to their well being.

The extent to which humans are usually capable of meaningful consent is dubious, which is also a problem in other aspects of life, but that's the best option we have available.

Donation in children or the mentally disabled is a big problem because now we're dealing with trying to guess whether a person has the capacity to understand and then consent to the risk. On the one hand it might seem safer to always say "No" but this denies their autonomy.
