The fact that nobody wants to learn or use regex is a pretty strong indicator that it's not a very good language. I think we've largely settled on it as matter of historical contingency rather than because it has any particular merit.
For starters there's no capacity to name expressions in order to combine them at a higher level of abstraction.

Have you seen the neighborhoods and people that live in "affordable" housing? No you wouldn't want to live there.
Yep I hit this recently. Over the lifetime of my hypothetical mortgage I would be paying $500/mo more than my rent just in interest. Bleh. Assuming my salary keeps up with inflation this actually becomes a great deal after roughly 15 years (maybe less
if my house appreciates in real value) compared to renting buttttt…

- I lose the ability to quickly scale down my life if something bad happens to me financially before my 30 years are up.

- I’m not really tied to a specific location and right now my career prospects are better if I’m mobile.

- I’m not excited to have to basically stop putting money into the market and into a single asset.

I can pay less for a mortgage but for worse living arrangements. If that was an acceptable trade I could just find a cheaper place to rent.

How much is the company worth today? That will tell you what the percentage points are worth.
So no one wants to enormously increase the value of their ever-appreciating asset by allowing for more housing to be constructed? Because of... civic pride? Really?

I'm a homeowner in a desirable area. In my area I see the urge to veto upzoning and keep the riff-raff out, keep traffic from getting worse, etc. pitted against the desire to increase affordability by upzoning. That opposition of interests makes sense. The idea that I could make a killing from upzoning never occurred to me. It seems very implausible.
Good suggestions! I’m not sure why I hadn’t thought of that, but snapping on drop does sound like a better experience.
Regarding #1, no one is stopping any app developer from charging 30% more than what they currently do and seeing if consumers will stay with them. Apple already has my data... they have time and time again proven to be reasonable stewards of that data. I do not want to play a guessing game with 40 other developers to see if they all follow that. I've been burned too many times.

Regarding #2, we didn't depend on the mercy of corporates in the PC world. I saw firsthand how annoying it is to debug my parent's computer repeatedly when random apps get installed or terms of service overstep. For less tech aware consumers this is almost certainly a win in terms of privacy and general experience.
This is amazing work. It’s also an unmitigated success for the Rust community, if I’m reading the article correctly.

First, the issues surfaced are all in unsafe blocks, which is the desired state of things.

Second, it’s a testament to how powerful unsafe is in making code safer: I don’t think this sort of static analysis would ever go through the whole of crates.io in 6.5 hours if it had to analyse the complete code base for each package.
Then the heirs lose out, they probably won't like that too much, nor will the pending decedents be happy knowing that a big chunk of their estate is going to be seized. I don't see how this is going to really make higher taxes more palatable.
Looks like the stuff of my nightmares. I love it.

Screen-space reflections are faster and require no new scene draws, but they won't show you "new angles" on reflected objects and they won't go around corners. Planar reflections require a new scene draw, but that's actually pretty modest: non-planar reflections require six scene-draws for a cubemap or full on raytracing.

In general, lots of things in games require re-rendering the scene multiple times per frame, so game engines are really, really good at this. Shadows, projections, transparency / translucency, motion/depth blur, indirect lighting, deferred lighting, even things like hit testing (though for dependency + latency reasons that's a prime candidate for offloading to the CPU). Anything that requires less visual fidelity will have its performance tuned accordingly: fewer pixels, simpler shaders, lower LOD geometry, lower framerates. Nobody will notice if the fuzzy bounce lights are calculated once every five frames and blended.

Ray tracing is conceptually simpler but (so far) slower at any given level of cleverness -- you'll often hear that it has asymptotic benefits, but those same benefits can be pulled out of rasterizers with effort comparable to what is required to make the raytracing practical.

Here is a writeup of the passes you might expect to see in a modern engine: https://zhangdoa.com/posts/rendering-analysis-cyberpunk-2077

Not HBA adapters, in fact the design is pretty much directly for use with some very pricy HBAs - NVMe-OF seems obvious target, as I don't see much benefit from "just" allowing HDDs in U.2 bay and thus possibly standardising on single fabric bay in server chassis.

NVMe-OF has options in form of InfiniBand and ROCE HBA chips that can be configured to act as PCI-E root complexes bifurcated over many many links (in place of default x16 endpoint) with minimal management logic or built-in SoC features. So a network JBOD with NVMe-OF can be essentially one chip + PCI-E links to disks + support/glue logic.

You'll have to pardon me if I have limited sympathy for the ability of the heirs to rich (defined here as multiple millions of USD in value) estates as they clamor to inherit tax rates from before their births. I understand the emotional pain of losing the all-important family home, but I am unwilling to structure public policy around vast tax breaks so that families flush with unearned wealth keep it.

Nobody likes paying taxes. It's literally never a pleasurable or enjoyable experience. Yet it's one that furthers society and allows it to do things like fund schools - a chronic problem in California.
Oh yea I almost forgot about that.
> but I'd think resistance losses would make it wildly impractical to power, say, Los Angeles with solar power collected in Australia.

Allow me to present to you the "Australia-Asia Power Link" [0], exporting solar power a distance of about 4,500km, which is still less than half of LA to Australia, but not insignificant.

What governs the practicality is often more complex than just power loss. Carbon credits, local taxation, and plain ol' bureaucracy can make it more profitable to export than to consume.

Google announced Federated Learning about 4 years ago:

https://ai.googleblog.com/2017/04/federated-learning-collabo...

I work adjacent to some teams using it. It's not idle research speculation; there are consumer product teams actively commercializing it.

(IMHO - speaking only for myself and not my employer - Federated Learning will be the most important invention to come out of Google, and its primary beneficiary will be someone other than Google, in the same way that the Alto was the most important invention to come out of Xerox but made a lot of people other than Xerox rich. It lets you build machine-learned models off of billions of devices without having centralized infrastructure or data storage, which finally makes the convenience and functionality of modern consumer software compatible with decentralized architectures and user privacy.)
I'm pretty sure TechTechPotato (whom I consider a reliable souece) said it would be used for training as well as inference but didn't mention use for specific devices.
Thanks for the report! Firefox was the browser I used during development and also needed the most work regarding performance. The image quality is heavily tied to rendering performance, so I’ll need to consider ways to improve this further.
The funny thing is taxpayers ripped twice, on publishing and on access to the science and the profit goes to publication industry (not universities, research institution).

If you summarize the cash flow, the publishing industry charges twice the taxpayers in addition to the science worker and research institutions costs. If you want to make your article open access, then you pay extra fees and nowadays, the university funds ripped off twice: they still bear the cost of pay-wall publishers and open access. Long story short, the whole system is rigged in favor of gatekeepers. You may check this video[1]

I don't understand. The thing the user was concerned about - their parents being forced out by taxes - is neatly prevented. What have I missed?

Or should I suppose that the goal is not keeping their parents where they are, but instead to inherit a valuable asset at exceptionally favorable taxation?

> the free market has failed to provide housing to people

Is it really a free market in places like the Bay Area where zoning is so restrictive and NIMBYs can show up to planning meetings to basically block any new construction?

It's been pointed out elsewhere in this thread that Japan also had a free market but less restrictive zoning and housing is much more affordable there.

The main argument for government efficiency would be if the government could override the NIMBYs more easily than private developers can.
> Home owners are more likely to maintain homes well (and efficiently).

That property owners aren’t willing to maintain property well if they don’t live there is not an indictment of the renters, but of the property owners. The renters pay the property owners to do this very job.
I live in Seattle. I have an engineer’s salary. I cannot presently afford a condo, let alone a house. By the time I have enough for the down payment, I will again not be able to afford a home.
I hope you're right.

The extent to which you might be right or wrong depends to some extent on how much debt there is in the system (or how leveraged/wound up the economy is).

A debt-based economy is much more vulnerable. Last time we raised interest rates rapidly, in the eighties, household debt was less than half of what it is today, adjusted for GDP.

Here's a real example in China: local governments providing a variety of recycling bins, and it all getting thrown into general waste regardless. Does 'saving face' work in that example?

How about exporting recycling to China and letting them bury it? You feel good and they earn money. Does it fix anything though?

When you get caught, pick a fall guy and continue on your merry way. That's how China has been operating for quite a while.

> mass exodus 1980s-2000s with the FLQ crisis

Right, or there's me, with no dark patterns, easy cancellation (one email, we answer our phone) on a $1000/mo subscription app. And the hoops to get into apple, and they wanted a cut, even when users create an account and engage from our plain web-app ages before trying for iOS app. It took almost a year to get approved with Mostly our terms, apple forced a bunch of changes - which frustrated our users (who just went back to the web-app). For us, Apple was a zero-value time-suck, degraded user experience, and since we're not assholes, the IAP benefits were moot for our clients.

Can you be specific? Insinuations don't help.
Inflation can be good for young people. If you really think there will be significant inflation, go buy a house, borrow more than you are comfortable with it necessary. Inflation will make the debt easier to deal with in time.
To explain more about the logic used by the guy you replied to...

...the problem is people think: interest rates go up, economy slows down, we can never raise interest rates. This logic takes on a life of its own.

The US economy was in this position in the late 60s: the Fed was under pressure to accommodate govt financing, they raised rates in 1959 and were blamed for causing a recession that influenced the outcome of the 1960 election, in 1967 they attempted to raise rates briefly but did so at the wrong time...eventual result (combined with some unfortunate timing with oil price changes) is rates never rise, inflation does, serious problems.

When the discussion moves to this point, and we have been moving this way for years, I think it is a sign that something has gone quite wrong. And that expectations around interest rates and Fed behaviour are actually adding volatility and uncertainty, not reducing it.

You are quite correct though. Rising interest rates are not bad. It is just the price of money. Falling interest rates can be just as bad too, but the problems are usually subtle (i.e. financial repression, which is what is happening now, no-one will realise what has happened until they try to retire in 20/30 years and realise they can't). Public policy has moved to this risky stage where people blame everything on politicians...the result is, unfortunately, inevitable.
The person saying it did not, in fact, mean that. And, in almost every use, as in that one, the word is what linguists call a "generic intensifier". People say "exponentially" in the same way, referring to processes that have no exponential component at all. People cycle through adverbs, using them until they lose their intensifying quality--once everything is incredible, nothing is--and move on to the next. But "incredibly" has hung on longer than normal, for reasons that are not clear.
Is there no middle ground? Like... raise interest rates a little, but not too much, and keep printing money, but slow down on how fast?

> The battle in an organisation is convincing people to look at flows at all. In my experience people love metrics that track stock (we have X widgets or can handle Y orders) and not flows (we built A widgets and sold B widgets).

So I think your assumption that academic publishing is "a website hosting up PDFs" is the source of confusion for "what justifies this much money." Just like AirBnB isn't just a website hosting JPEGs, while being worth 129 billion dollars. Hosting PDFs can already be done by arXiv or Google Drive or Github as you said.

Customer support is for peer reviewers who can't log into their account, for managing issues dealing with misconduct, for handling issues with payments, for post-publishing corrections and errata, for passing accounts from editors who become non-responsive to other editors, etc. Not just dealing with readers or subscribers.
I used to live across the street from a smaller NYCHA building. 5 stories, probably 20-40 units (new york city housing authority, pubic housing here).

It seemed perfectly fine. I never went in, but the outside was clean, well lit, and well maintained. My neighbors there were just like my neighbors anywhere else on the block.

There's certainly a lot of bad public housing in the us, but that's not an immutable quality of public housing, that's a policy choice made by politicians.

Ah yes, "neighborhood character", that pervasive dog whistle.

For a practical consideration, California might look towards the future and seriously consider the population limits imposed by water scarcity. But even there, sufficient political will and investment could start desalinating out of the readily available ocean. Sure, it's horribly power inefficient, but it's there, and so is abundant solar power potential, meaning that the only final concerns are NIMBY and environmental concerns, of which the latter, at least, are serious (but in the face of water shortages, should be discounted, and if the current long-term drought trend holds, we should probably start assuming shortages and boiling some fish sooner than later).

> the tail rotor is placed specifically so that it is outside of the main rotor airflow. takeoff and landing require that the tail rotor be in relatively calm air.

Did you read the references I provided? The tail rotor can absolutely be in the turbulent air generated by the main rotor disk on takeoff and landing.

> No, "moving forward" means "moving forward." "tilting the rotor" means "tilting the rotor." those are very different things, as any helicopter pilot would know.

Do you have any training in helicopters? I do.

I used the terms I did because I was making a comment meant to be read by people who don't know the terms. I was trying to make it accessible. When I said that moving forward means tilting the rotor disk, I was saying that that's what I actually meant, but again, I used "moving forward" to make it understandable to others. In essence, I was providing a translation of the layman terms I used.

It's not enough to "understand English"; you have to communicate too. That's what I was doing. I'm sure you understand the difference.

No, you don't, except now I think that you are only claiming to know what you are talking about, where I actually have time in a helicopter.
