There is no one Anonymous, just like there is no one "antifa" or one "black lives matter"; it's a movement, a conviction, not an organized entity.

I mean who is the leader of anonymous? Who is the leader of "antifa"? BLM?

TL;DR you don't really get internet trolls / anarchists / unorganized entities operating under a shared name.
If that is you, why should we trust you with a tech unicorn? Is there no other value or purpose to your venture?

This brings up a point related to the double-period/redundancy discussion above.

In a slight adjustment of this example, what if the text were a question and the quotation were a statement. Would this be a good construct: Why did Jake believe "the AI was going to kill us all."?

Similarly you could have a text statement with a quoted question: Jake asked "would the AI kill us all?".

I don't want to be too harsh on the programmer, everyone makes mistakes. It's easy to see how a person focused on a security issue with user names makes a quick fix without thinking through how this will affect account creation. As programmers, we have to make like 7,000 decisions every day, you're bound to fuck up some of them. This is a pretty big one, though.

The bigger question is how this passed code review and testing.

That's false equivalence. Typescript is trying to bolt on strict, formal types to a prototypical language. Because the language doesn't map cleanly into formal types doesn't mean it's poorly designed. You'd need to have a lot of evidence that that were the case, as it's a bold claim about not just JavaScript, but programming language design in general - one that isn't entirely factual, IMO.

Look at shell scripting. Imagine trying to apply a type system to shell scripts. It wouldn't map cleanly at all because (almost) everything is a string, and the operations define how those strings are interpreted - not the data itself.

However for what it is, shell scripting is quite useful. Most would argue it has a simple interface, simple syntax, simple concepts.

Perhaps a contrived example - my point mostly being that you can't draw conclusions like that.
It's interesting that high p-values actually seem to more conclusively state something than low p values (like p < 0.05) do.

With a high p value, you can say with some degree of certainty that your test was unable to detect any effect. Whether it was due to the lack of an effect or because your test wasn't capable of measuring it

With a low p value, you don't actually really know if you detected something interesting. It could be due to a flawed test, biases, non-causal correlations, faulty p-hacky stats, etc.

So why do we consider the latter more worthwhile when it seems to say less?

I think all your examples are wrong. I am for abortion, but the bodily integrity argument is just plainly bad because it relies on axioms that the child isn't a fully developed human.

I support abortion rights but hate this argument in particular, because bodily integrity of the child would be of interest as well.

HRT and plastic surgery are irrelevant here since they are voluntary choices.
The space should be an "espace fine" (espace is feminine in that context), meaning a smaller space (En Space) than the normal space (Em Space).

The En Space is non-breakable, but the normal non-breakable space is Em in length, and therefore improper.
Correct. You want to set Content-Type and X-Content-Type-Options.

The story is that in some cases, Internet Explorer could be tricked to ignore the Content-Type header. Instead of fixing the core bug, Microsoft decided to add a header (presumably, they didn’t want to break existing websites). A decade later, people discovered two ways to bypass X-Content-Type-Options. This time, Microsoft fixed the core issue instead of adding X-Content-Type-Options-For-Reals.

well, instead of relying on another fallacy (that of the slippery slope and whataboutism), why not judge an action by it's own merits?

I have no opinions on the obesity epidemic, but i'm sure that it's a good idea to try solve it. No one is arguing that they shouldn't, but for the costs involved.

At the moment, the pressing issue is covid. And the solution, which may seem "drastic" and "invasive", is deemed necessary by a majority of medical professionals - and indeed, looks to be fairly safe so far. A reasonable person would agree that taking the vaccine is both good for themselves personally, and good for the general health of society.

Mandating that vaccines be taken, or be excluded from certain public activities, is an incentive that can be used to push people over the fence, and i would agree that it's not an overreach of the state to implement such an incentive.
It doesn't look ugly at all if the space is of the correct length.

You mean using apostrophes as quotes?

gross
Wow, I can't believe how much I now realize I want this to be the default. This whole situation feels like the result of a lack of computers unable to automatically place these "ligatures" and I've never considered how we should've ditched this restriction years ago.
I would argue most JavaScript developers do not use React. Perhaps in your own bubble, but there are way more people writing other things in JavaScript.
Terminating the quoted sentence with a period is redundant, since the closing quotation mark also terminates it.
It seems to be in style now to try to tear down the public perception of past great minds, I recently read a similar article about Hawking. And while this article may have some points, I don't think the overall framing is fair.

I think everyone with an interest in theoretical CS should work through Turing's 1936 paper at one point in their life. For me, the important part of that paper is how convincingly it argues that the proposed machine model is not just yet another model of computation, but a complete model of computation: that everything you could reasonably call computation is encompassed by these machines.

So there's a finality to Turing's definition of computation: these problems are unsolvable not just with this model, but with any reasonable machine model. It's very hard to make the same case for lambda calculus, which is (in my opinion) a large part of what made Turing's paper so groundbreaking.
Most games get cracked within 1-3 months after release. For specific deep denuvo integration titles it can take a bit longer (or it might never happen if the game is bad or nobody cares about it, but that rarely happens). For smaller titles that use off-the shelf DRM related to a specific store, there are general-purpose bypasses that work fine in basically every case.

In summary I would say that the coverage is a lot more complete than you'd expect :)
“ When it comes to climate change everyone here knows how to fix it: stop eating cows, use solar batteries, build you own windmill, grow your own food, jog... and other simple things.”

I couldn’t disagree more. This is one of the biggest failures of the modern environmental movement. The individualization of environmental guilt. See https://medium.com/@mitpress/individualization-plant-a-tree-...

We need systemic change. Not pressing the eco button on your solar powered dishwasher.
Agree with the post; interestingly, in grade school (here in America) I was actually taught both ways depending on the teacher's preference / belief (assuming we were not writing MLA research papers)... this mostly led to perpetual confusion, so we'd often just put the period directly under the quotation. (Of course, couldn't do that for typed assignments.) I remember one of my English teachers accepting both ways because she could never keep it straight herself.
My country has no mandates and ICU usage from Covid is under 10%. There is a policy in place that will increase measures when ICU occupancy from COVID rises to 10% - 20%.
A great reason to build an array on Pluto.
People so often performatively misunderstand this, that I'm getting to where I think we should literally skip having marginal rates and just abruptly switch the actual rate over at that threshold.

I mean, if that is how they are going to act, let's just do it. Nothing is apparently gained through having marginal rates be the reality. We are just leaving money on the table when the collective insistence of people for decades is that marginal taxes don't exist and the rate's just abruptly hiked to a different one.

So fine. Marginal rates don't exist, then. Happy?
> I find the Turing Machine a much more intuitive model of computation than say lambda calculus

I think register machines are more intuitive than Turing machines - they are much closer to how real world computers work.
Sure. But the site took a distinctly reactionary turn around 2010, and the community that’s on there now bears little resemblance to the one that occupied it from 2003 to 2013[1].

Put another way: it’s always been a cesspit, but it was a cesspit of a community. What passes for conversation on 4chan in 2021 appears to be neo-Nazis riling each other up.

[1]: On the bigger boards. The smaller ones are basically what they’ve always been, which lends further evidence to the point about the overwhelming majority of hate content coming from opportunistic reactionaries.
I like the 'more logical still' style.

The structure of the whole looks incomplete and unbalanced without the second full-stop, which I find ugly. I guess that I care more about logical structure (or my idea of logical structure), than typographical utility.
If the data is not visible, for an outsider there is no difference between someone making something up and someone making a well-founded argument. Given historical examples, it is more reasonable to assume they are making stuff up. This is what the industry as a whole has always done.
> There is no reason that there should be two different approaches to punctuation in the English language.

Why not? We have different vocabulary, different spelling. Our accents are sufficiently different that non-native speakers can't always understand both.

So serious question - why wouldn't punctuation also differ?
Someone will get sandblasted, but that’s not too bad because the density will fall quickly with the distance.

> Remembering When Only Barbarians Drank Milk

It's how I still feel about it. The way cows are treated (caged, fed unnatural food, preventive antibiotics, babies taken away right after birth, the misery of slaughter) shows me that the act of paying for the products derived from cows is, frankly, quite barbarian to me (as in: not very sophisticated).

Especially given that milk product are known for decades to be unhealthy for humans after the weaning stage.
On the other hand, it was the English who used to have some extra space between sentences compared to the space between words. This is still the default in LaTeX, but I believe everyone turns it off by using the \frenchspacing command in the preamble.

Also German has its own verbs for
"for the insertion of inappropriate spaces before a punctuation mark." and "for the insertion of inappropriate spaces after a punctuation mark."[1] which are often used in a derogatory manner in connection with people who do it wrongly.

Presumably that just shows that it's easy to fit things with inverse-power functions, rather than revealing some fundamental truth about the behaviour the equation is modelling.
I think this is mostly correct but the distrust was partly earned and vaccine mandates don't really help here.
So would you suggest that it would make sense to never have punctuation before a quotation mark?
Yes, Youtube specifically is a big problem.
That was a sarcasm. Updated to make it clear
And this is why more simply, the quotation mark can imply the period;

similarly, the comma can be inherited by the formulation and implied (there is no sacrifice in '«That's too bad», John said, «but you can recover»' for '«That's too bad, but you can recover»' - the break is in the formulation and the explicit comma is redundant).
Log files showing function call trees can also show a chiastic structure. This is evidence that the code I wrote is divine.
Has this gone through any peer review process?
> "Apple has been long hailed for having the best CPU cores for consumer workloads for years. They have by far the highest performance per clock and efficiency driven by performance in the same class as AMD and Intel’s best current CPUs. This was driven by breakneck gains with architectural changes every year for a decade."

I don't think this is event remotely correct to begin with (Apple advantage was in mips-per-watt. AMD wipes the floor with them in performance department, but also uses more power).

And the author doesn't seem to understand that the architecture was mostly created by ARM.

With a start like that, I am not sure if I should read the rest.
ASIO, really?

Havng had zero problems with this (already many years ago, in the days where getting low latency on linux was extremely hard) on a variety of machines but all with pretty decent cards is it possible that the problem has nothing to do with ASIO but rather with crappy drivers / manufacturers? Or perhaps you just had bad luck?
The whole site looks like it's parody information ("epic" with a K, "Rob Monster", nazi stuff, etc) but it becomes weirder when you realize they aren't parodying anything and all of it is accurate.
Logical aspirations aside, punctuation is largely meant to aid in reading.

While some marks provide emphasis, most (other than suggesting connectivity) denote a length of pause.

Punctuation (or lack thereof) that pulls you out of the flow of the reading is, IMHO, really not in the spirit of things ;)

Why would they hire H1B when they could just go to the nearest McDonalds and poach the cashiers to write javascript? It isn't like the cashiers need a visa to work in USA.

The reason of course is that those cashiers can't write javascript. Meaning, not everyone can write javascript, you have to admit it requires at least a bit of training so it isn't an unskilled job.

Edit: And yes, I agree, company owners are very greedy. They wouldn't pay that much money to get people to write Javascript unless they had to. If they could pay minimum wage and still get code written they would. Hence we must conclude that you can't just take anyone and make them write javascript, since if you could companies would already do that. Hence javascript is not unskilled labor as you suggested before. Every job that pays more than minimum wage is thanks to labor shortage in that sector, if there isn't a labor shortage it means that companies doesn't have to compete for labor so there is no reason to pay more than minimum wage.
Back to undergraduate days > a decade ago, I think I learnt both lambda calculus and Turing machine at the same class: Formal Language and Automata Theory.

Of course Turing machine is more easy to understand because... it's a theoritical machine, after all. On the other side, lambda calculus was weirder, I didn't get it until learning Haskell :D
Because those others mostly aren't anglos helping the war effort.
Could still be due to search personalisation.

I get programming results even for non programming terms. I am pretty confident that's not the case for my mom.

It stands to reason that people's search results could be wholly uninformative if Google thinks the subject matter is unlike what you usually read.

Just don't put a ended sentence at the end of something that is not yet a finished utterance.

It's always possible to make a full sentence quotation after a colon, possibly using indentation:

With just enough of learning to misquote.
— Lord Byron

This can be even more explicit:

“One whom it is easier to hate, but still easier to quote.”
— Alexander Pope

Or you can also opt for inner quotation lightly altering the typography, like “quotation is the highest compliment you can pay to an author”, which is actually an excerpt from the wider quotation:

“Quotation is the highest compliment you can pay to an author. Perhaps the next highest is, when a writer of any kind is so considerable that you go to the labor and pains of endeavoring to refute him before the public, the very doing of which is an incidental admission of his talent and power.”
— Anonymous
Everything builds on past work. Educated people, at least in europe, were quite well connected and aware of each others works in those times too.
With PhD thing is the supply is relatively low. At least compared to number of Masters and Bachelors available. Thus just alone that they can cost more to hire. Demand is much more murky question however.
I agree with that, assuming there would be some indication if the quoted sentence wasn't complete.

I'm just saying that the outer/quoting sentence needs its own punctuation regardless of what's going on in between those quotation marks.
There are so many small differences between English language flavours, it's fascinating.

Going off on a tangent, here's a random example...

The way brackets/parentheses are referred to in American English vs British English is different.

In the US:

() = parentheses

[] = brackets

{} = braces (or curly braces)

<> = angle brackets

In the UK:

() = brackets (or 'round brackets')

[] = square brackets

{} = curly brackets

<> = angle brackets (or angled brackets)

I prefer the UK version because it is simpler and feels logical. Plus, the word 'parentheses' is a mouthful :-)
Not OP, but on my Windows (with Synaptics driver) and Linux laptops I usually have problems with palm detection so I get accidential random clicks (with "tap to click" enabled) and erratic scrolling and zooming. Sometimes multi-touch gestures "stick" and remain active even if there's only one finger on the touchpad. It's basically required to disable tap-to-click (but this still doesn't fix all issues where the palm detection fails).

On an older Windows laptop the Synaptics driver even came with a "Restart" button in the control panel because it was so common that the driver would hang or crash.

AFAIK Microsoft's Precision touchpad drivers are much better though, but they are not compatible with my Windows laptop.

The article claims 100's of Apple's CPU engineers have left to join other start-ups. And thus Apple's ARM cpu development is stuck. If true, this is bad news for Apple as they have bet their entire future on ARM cpus. It'll certainly be interesting to see if people are still attracted to the next generation of ARM based Apple laptops and desktops if they aren't as good as Intel / AMD CPUs, given the current limitations of Apple ARM cpus (non-upgradeable SoC that fully supports only one OS). (But I find it hard to believe that Apple doesn't have some contingency plan for this - like I said, Apple has bet their future on ARM processors, and the tightly closed systems that they can build with it is every Apple CEO's wet dream).
i gather from this that maybe microsoft isn't the best supply chain for linux images. i find this revelation to be startling.
