That's just.. not how Rust works. I assume that after being frustrated by the Rust borrow checker, you chose to use easy to write wrappers like `Arc` and `RefCell`. I think it is something that beginners often do.

I wouldn't rewrite my project to some other language before I know how it is going to look like in the language. I had to be somewhat confident. If you find yourself frustrated by Rust's borrow checker, that tells me that you are not yet ready to port a project to Rust. You don't have the "Rust mindset" yet.
Are pages 358, 373, 379, 396, 530 misprinted or scanned sloppily?
If that's what you meant by "turning screws" then yeah, you're right.

I thought you meant changing the whole system, which is well beyond the powers of one legislator.
Backing it off from teledildonics (which I could write you a novel about and definitely have opinions on but we'll just wait until someone posts https://buttplug.io to the front page again before I write pages of comments on that heh), I'm working on a system similar to this for "affective haptics" in social VR.

I've built a simple system (currently ERM, I wanna try LRA but haven't had time to work everything out yet) for head/ear haptics, basically so people can feel head/ear pets in VR. It's a super common intimate gesture is places like VRChat.

There's a small demo video here:

https://youtu.be/muh0o8ser8E?t=423

I was planning on building pretty much exactly what this system is, and I'm pretty happy someone else has done it because so far I've not had time to even start board layout yet. Sourcing parts for this may still be an issue, because haptic drivers are definitely a victim of the supply chain crunch lately.

Anyways, having a simple way to build and control haptic signals will allow people to experiment, which is really what we need. Touch and social contexts are inextricably linked, but figuring out which contexts would make for good products is an on-going problem, and has left a wasteland of failed crowdfunding campaigns.

But, all that said, yes this would also be perfect for teledildonics research and I'll probably use it for that too.
OK so you get 50 million people from Africa, India and other parts of Asia.

Then what? What if half choose to immediately move to New York or Los Angeles to find a better job?

Are you planning on keeping the 50 million factory workers imprisoned as second-class citizens in mid-West factories for the first 5 years? 10 years?
Erm... Why do you need a law when you simply have to say no to your boss as an employee? "Sorry, I am following my contract, I'm not supposed to work after hours". If you can't even have this kind of discussion with your boss, grow some balls or change companies.
I don't know where you heard that, but even if we accept that assertion, it's not relevant to this conversation.

We're talking about running Linux on the Mac, so you won't be paying that virtualisation penalty.

There is no reason to think ARM64 containers running on an ARM64 machine would run any worse than AMD64 images running on an AMD64 machine. So given M1 Pro/Max Macs consistently rate amongst the best performing laptops on the market, you should expect a similar experience when running ARM64 containers on Linux.

As more developers pick up ARM64 macs, more binaries and containers will be releasing in ARM64. There was already a massive boost in this kind of thing after the launch of the M1.

In Hong Kong, a bit denser than Philly (I googled for giggles: HK is 6300 p/km2, Philly is 4500 p/km, still surprisingly high), we have, I think, reached your no-car target simply because it's unthinkable people get cars when space is so rare and expensive (people here do mortgages to buy 200k USD parkings as retirement investment when they cant buy a home).

Bicycle is non existent though, what is really different from my low density european experience is the amount and low cost of traditional taxis (Uber gave up and now is a normal taxi provider here because they cant beat their price - https://www.uber.com/en-HK/blog/introducing-uber-taxi/ ) and the insane quality of the metro and bus networks (we didnt have double deckers every 5 minutes in my city in Normandy, we were lucky if the schedule was remotely accurate)

I ve seen some other places more dense that american cities explode in little motor bikes (Taipei, Kuala Lumpur), but that depends a lot on regulation.
Nice example of how a foreign nation would exercise influence through business people. CCP saw the similar danger in Jack Ma and others, because of their natural tendency to align closer to US value (because they are capitalists), and their companies' listing on US stock exchange.

It's only now that CCP start to play the same game.

The rivalry between US and China is going to be interesting. I hope in the process other developing countries would gain much from these 2 big boys looking to influence people across the globe.
> in gdb, it prints many variable values as "optimized out".

This is because your contract with the C/C++ compiler is not "produce machine instructions that faithfully implement the program as written", but "produce machine instructions that have the same side-effects as the program".

Anything that is not explicitly marked as observable (and whose state is thus a side-effect) is fair game. Arguments passed to functions out of scope (remember LTO...), memory same, volatile-qualified storage... that's about it. Debuggability of an optimised program is an accident, not an objective.
If one's spacecraft missed the skyhook on arrival, it could not decelerate and would fly off into space. The thought is terrifying. The film Aniara deals with this scenario. Spacecraft relying on skyhooks for deceleration would need lifeboats that can decelerate and return to the destination after a missed skyhook rendezvous.
An introduction to the criticality of ethical hacking on AI projects
Cybersecurity is crucial in digital transformation programs. Many of these programs include artificial intelligence projects. Nowadays, it is almost impossible to transform enterprise environments digitally without using artificial intelligence. Digital and artificial intelligence go hand in hand. Therefore, cybersecurity is embedded in enterprise-wide organizations’ vision, mission, strategy, and operational tactics.
This sounds entitled.
I think this is slippery slope / weird thinking. The idea is to give those folks the actual freedom to "level up" as you put it. It's hard to do that if your working multiple minimum wage jobs, or just 60hrs a week at one. The USA is incredibly anti-worker / anti-mobility, despite the great propaganda we receive our entire lives here. Go overseas, talk to folks, and widen your viewpoint a bit. You'll realize a lot more folks are happy in places like Australia than the USA. Way cleaner and safer too, also better food! A lot of immigration as well!

A lot of the USA is setup to unfortunately keep a certain amount of folks in a perpetual system of being poor, while telling them it's way worse in other countries (we're the best!). It keeps them too busy to pay attention to anything but survival paycheck to paycheck, which is good for the ruling class.

It's also funny that you are literally degrading / belittling (while saying regulations meant to protect them are degrading) people who are in jobs that you view as below you (service), but would likely miss a great deal if folks didn't do them.

But hey, you seem big on anecdotes, here is some data:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Social_Mobility_Index

Literally, the USA is ranked 27 in upward mobility in the world. Stop spouting propaganda and go talk to some real folks in service jobs. Ask them what their schedule is, what their home life is (are they taking care of their parents, others with chronic conditions, do _they_ have a chronic condition, etc.), and get to know them.

Go overseas if you can, and see how the rest of the world lives. You'd be surprised how good other countries have it, even the "service" class in those countries, as you would put it.
Yeah, I've been reading up on the details, and I feel a bit better today than I did yesterday. It's easy to feel guilty over stuff that really has nothing to do with you sometimes. I suspect tomorrow I'll feel a little better and that'll continue for a few more days.

Despite his many, many faults, I did genuinely like Lowtax. The few short conversations I had with him before were very funny and pleasant, and I'll miss his strange humor on YouTube. He was a complicated dude, and his fall over the last few years shows how someone can go from "king of the internet" to laughingstock in a relatively short time, and serves as a cautionary tale. The rest of the SA community very justifiably turned on him, and I don't blame them for that at all, but I dunno, I guess I liked him enough to cut him a bit more slack than he deserved.

As a separate point, I almost never implement
each on a custom object in ruby. There are
probably "library code" cases where it's appropriate

Likewise. I've worked with Ruby fulltime since 2014 and never done it in actual project code, only in book exercises, and I'm not sure I've seen it in any gems I've dove into, though I've never poked around in ActiveRecord.

Like you said, I can't think of too many reasons why one would want to implement #each -- on a daily basis I'm just putting various objects into arrays, hashes, etc.

I tend to write very "boring" Ruby. Ruby gives you lots of ways to get wacky, but IMO the default best practice would be to keep it simple and avoid the cute stuff unless you really have a reason.

It's nothing like throwing a ball up from a running car. Look up the physics of rotating reference frames. I'm sure others can explain it better than I can.
Almost all ebikes are limited to 25km/h here, which is a reasonable speed in my opinion. It makes cycling accessible to everyone regardless of fitness level or hills, but it also ensures that ebikes go at a similar speed as most other riders (most riders on the cycle paths go between 20 and 30 km/h (12-19MPH)

There are some people who modded their ebikes to go faster, but I've only encountered them very rarely.

When I was younger those devices were called “mass drivers”.

The idea was crude materials would be cut up from moons and asteroids, and launched using maglev rails towards civilization centrals. Or it can also be used for recovery, so long that the landing spacecraft can successfully mate the train.

Something I'm missing here:

Tuvalu is an island with a population of around 11,000 people and its highest point is just 4.5m (15 ft) above sea level. Since 1993, sea levels have risen about 0.5cm (0.2 inches) per year, according to a 2011 Australian government report.

So they're talking about something that might happen in 900 years, if current trends hold (and we all know that all trends noted by the best scientists of 13th century totally proved to be accurate). And yet the article treats it as a problem that needs to be discussed right now, complete with a picture of an official standing knee-deep in water, and descriptions of how old people prepare to "go down with the land" (they must not be that old if they plan to live for several hundreds of years longer...)

This looks like cheap theatrics using real events to present scenarios which aren't relevant and probably won't be anytime worth talking about. I mean, there's surely coastal erosion problem but not from the 0.5cm per year thing.
What stops them from doing the same without stating the reasoning?
"speed" or rate of rotation?
No, even if there were no atmosphere it would not.

There's a point at which you can no longer ignore the rotation of the earth.

Maybe the effect still isn't huge at the scales we're talking about but it's not straight up and straight down.

You don’t deserve the downvotes here. Real life Ruby is so magic, opaque, and spooky action at a distance to a degree that makes maintenance on a large codebase functionally impossible for anyone who is not actively working on that codebase.

I know literally zero Go; don’t even think I could write a hello world from memory. But I can and have submitted non-trivial patches to Go codebases to fix bugs, add features, and even a few race conditions.
C# is also probably in a similar league, for the same reasons.
Doesn't matter what angle you throw it. An object in orbit always returns to its starting point. When the object is released, its orbit intersects the ground (unless it reaches escape velocity). If you want to change the orbit so it no longer intersects the ground, you must impart a huge velocity change to the object after it clears the atmosphere, and the only practical way to do that is to include a rocket engine and propellant and avionics in the payload.
Just want to commend you for using tau.

Thanks for your question. Yes, we did research the space a lot before making AutoAI. Here is what we found:

PyCaret: Semi-automatic. You do the first run; then you figure the next set of runs. Ensemble models require manual configuration.

Tpot: Does a great job. Generates 4-5 lines of py code too. But does not support Neural Networks / DNN. So works only for problems where GOFAI works.

H2O.ai: They have an open-source flavor, but the best way to use it is the enterprise version on the H2O cloud. The interface is confusing, and the final output is black-box.

Now there are many in the enterprise category, such as DataRobot, AWS SageMaker, Azure etc. Most are unaffordable to Data Scientists unless your employer is sponsoring the platform.

AutoAI: This is 100% automated. Uses GOFAI, Neural Networks and DNN, all in one box. It is 100% White-box. It is the only AutoML framework that generates high-quality (1000s of lines) of Jupyter Notebook code. You can check some example codes here: https://cloud.blobcity.com
Bizarre. I would never guess that was a local problem, even with my post I assumed you accidentally copied the ad then quickly made a decision.
I suppose. When I debug system software, I usually recompile Arch Linux packages with options=(!strip debug), which turns off stripping and enables debug symbols. I don't know if it disables optimizations which impair debugging though.
They had this problem for years in Amsterdam and last time I've heard about it they decided to ban moped from bike lanes in the city. Electric moped were particularly problematic because of their speed, of their silence and weigh.
I don't know what the rules are with regard to ebikes though.
You are both wrong. Air resistance increases quadratically with speed, not cubically. And you mixed up polynomial with exponential.

Quadratic: x^2

Cubic: x^3

Polynomial (eg. 3rd degree): a + b x + c x^2 + d x^3

Exponential: e^x
No. Humans don't like 10 gs not to mention 10000.
Ah yes, the early middle ages that everyone agrees was a wonderful time, full of peace, economic prosperity, and progress /s.
In principle this would work. If they had a spinning mass, then moved the mass closer to the center of rotation, its speed would increase. The reason they do not do this is that it is just not that useful in this context.

One of the major limitatinos of the SpinLaunch approach is the g-forces. As it is, objects launched by SpinLaunch experience a g-force on the order of 10,000G. For a constant velocity, this force goes up as the inverse of the radius. As a result, you want the mass to be as far away from the center as possible so that the g-force experienced is minimal.

The other problem is that this approach is not actually an efficient way of gaining speed. Conservation of energy is still a thing. The rotating mass experiences an apparent centrifugal force pushing it away from the center of rotation (the 10,000Gs that I mentioned above). In order to move move the mass closer to the center, you must counteract this apparent force. At that point, you are likely better off taking the energy you would spend pulling the mass towards the center and simply apply it directly towards increasing the rotational speed.
So what's more feasible: SpinLaunch or a space elevator? Let's argue. Ready, set, go! :)

You don't have to be literally sued for this kind of thing to be a liability. Companies don't like this because even if they don't get sued, it becomes a PR liability when they get a reputation. When the average buyer sees that a product gets a lot of accidents, they're not going to put on their detective hat and spend much time getting to the bottom of "is this reputation truly deserved? was it the customer's fault?"

> People modify vehicles all the time and it causes unsafe driving that can lead to collisions.

Yeah, and car companies don't support these mods. Also, mods that cause unsafe driving are often literally illegal: not only will you be unsupported, the government will punish you for using these mods. Because it's really dangerous and modern Western society generally agrees that it's not okay to let people fuck themselves that easily even if it was their own choice. How dangerous are Minecraft mods?

That's a very clear argument. Can the effect of air resistance usefully change this, since it's a force acting on the object after it's released? It seems like it's quite bad that the force always points directly opposite the velocity, and I imagine there's a straightforward argument that this can't "improve" the orbit, but I'm not sure offhand how to incorporate that into the analysis.
You know, that is actually ringing a bell, I think I might have indeed.
