I thought I wanted dictionaries with dot notation for a while. After some time I realized I didn't care about dictionary features like iterating over keys at all, I just needed a namespace.

`from types import SimpleNamespace` works for me.

Of course I don't want to say that there's no need for box, just that it's good to consider if you're actually looking for a dictionary.
Yeah I should've signified ETH 1.x, I don't know much about 2.0, thanks for the info.
It might be useful for auto completion when you’re using versions older than 3.8 and can’t use TypedDict.

No. Ask yourself if the low chance of getting covid again (lower than if you were only vaccinated) is worth the complications from unforeseen issues.

Without taking the vaccine you introduce none of the potential risks of the vaccine. If there are any you simply can't get them if you don't take it.
The ideal situation our brains want is a close friend with high social status who entertains us with compelling and digestible narratives about what's really going on. A news outlet that only deals in cold hard facts, consensus, and objective numbers will simply never be able to out-compete a retweetable headline from a famous journalist with a sensationalized and entertaining version of the facts.

For one thing, I am not convinced we have cracked a way in general of translating cold hard data and situations with scant evidence into a decent lay understanding. So in some ways news-as-entertainment media may even succeed in communicating actual reality better than a list of facts ever could, even if everyone's understanding is pretty shit on average. By using clickbait and sensation to turn a profit they can even do it more sustainably while Objective News Corp goes out of business (or more likely starts to slowly become more like everyone else).

Maybe we'll find effective scientific ways to measure how news outlets and specific authors tend to do at predicting future developments through implication or otherwise, but I think the more realistic boring reality is that the broad ecosystem will just trudge ahead on a bumpy road and converge on a few marginally better ways of reporting and interpreting news.

Data Storage Looks to Go Small, Small
I'm guessing it's one of the new ones in the center (between G and H).

I only use escape in vim though, and there I mapped the jk key combination to escape instead. (:map! jk <esc>) I'm trying to stop using the physical escape key completely. If it's not where I expect it that will go faster.

The function keys do almost nothing in Linux so I won't miss them.

My main regret with my Advantage keyboard is that I should have bought it 20 years earlier. So I could totally see myself getting this. Even if I think 3.2 pounds is a little on the heavy side.

> I think any advocate for Haskell has to justify, at minimum, why it should be preferred to all of Rust/Go/Java/Python for a given use case. These all have way better tooling, developer ergonomics, and library support.

Here's some justification:

- All those languages force me to think imperatively, therefore hamstringing my mind. I don't want to waste time thinking in those languages.

- Haskell has more universal potential. It's obviously a smaller community. BUT I can use Haskell to program FPGAs (clash), embedded systems (Ivory, CoPilot), frontend (ghcjs), write music (tidal, csound-expression, euterpea), shaders & graphics (GPipe, Hylogen), on top of general purpose computing (with a best-in-class FFI to boot.) The nature of the language is such that you can use Haskell for anything and have it still be Haskell - Rust, Go, etc can't get close to that capability.

- None of those languages have tooling at the level of ghci. I've used both Go and Rust extensively and ghci blows their tooling out the water. Cabal is also just excellent nowadays. Haskell also has some of the best testing libraries out there too.

- Haskell has better library support for its community size than those languages. It's substantially easier to find a quality Haskell library on Hackage than a Go one on GitHub. Haskell wins on the quality front, and most gaps imo can be filled easily (API bindings, for instance, are trivial.)

- Developer ergonomics? Haskell's parametric & ad-hoc polymorphism alone combined with its RTS outclass all those languages imo. Go's RTS is worse. All those languages' parametric polymorphism is worse.

^ all this is true IF you have put in a good amount of time becoming a Haskell pro. For beginners, there are arguments against it. But I'm no beginner so why waste my time using that as my litmus test?

This makes sense if you consider 'quality' and 'enjoyability' on two separate axes:

- High quality and enjoyable? A classic.

- Low quality but enjoyable? A personal favourite.

- High quality but boring? Critics choice that no one watches.

- Low quality but boring? Obvious trash.
In large cities on the east coast we didn't run into this problem because nearly every new development had a doorman.

In the Bay Area and LA many apartment buildings don't have a front desk, they have a leasing office that may or may not be open, and typically keeps odd hours.

With the exception of high-rises, new developments in SF and South Bay with under 200 units typically don't have a front desk.

They do have security patrol come in for a couple of hours nightly, but they're not supposed to get involved and just take notes of suspicious activity, then email it to the leasing office to review the next day. Security will call the police if it's blatant theft of break-in, but they rarely catch it because this is one person patrolling a garage and endless hallways for just a few hours each night. When the security patrol car is by the building entrance, they can return a couple of hours later to steal packages, break into the bike room, break into cars, open lockboxes, etc.

However, things got out of hand significantly during the pandemic. Package theft and mailbox theft started happening during daylight hours. At one building in Mountain View they stole the USPS master key as the mail carrier had the boxes open putting in the mail. One leasing agent was assaulted during a tour and the keys & fobs were stolen.

You can't fight this type of crime by having a security guard in every area of every building. The issue is rooted in that the thieves and squatters know that they will get away with it. The criminals became bolder and even if confronted by a security guard, they have no more power than your average citizen has. They can just observe and take notes.
The Chinese are denying it. So either there’re lying or incredibly petty. Either way, not a good look. Either way, they’ll claim it’s western propaganda.
I disagree with your assertion that the requirement for the internal SSD was a marketing decision (your word was "corporate", but that could mean anything). I think that it was probably a technical decision.

Likely there is a very small bit of bootstrap code stuffed into a ROM somewhere, and the only thing that bootstrap code enables it to read from some protected part of the onboard SSD, which then gives you the next round of bootstrap enabling you to read from other devices (e.g. all the code needed to power up and use the hardware needed to get to an external drive, and the code to read the partitions on said drive).

Someone made the decision that it would be better to use the bit of internal SSD (since it would "always" be there), that could be changed later, rather than hard-code this into comparatively expensive silicon. Unless your internal drive goes bad, it is a pretty good compromise. I seriously doubt that anyone in marketing cared about this.
Why are communist Chinese even admitted at all? Many Americans have tried and failed at admission and now have to settle for some lesser education or none at all. What are they teaching people who are forbidden to learn? Why should they tolerate people returning with systemic resentment? I see no return on this investment -- none at all.
You've got the class relationship with immigrants backwards.

Poor people are more likely to be victims of low-level crimes than rich people for a variety of reasons. When criminal immigrants come in, it's poor people they victimize.

It's also poor people who must compete with unskilled immigrants for jobs.

Rich people benefit from low-skilled immigration. They can isolate themselves physically from the bad immigrant neighborhoods, but also hire those immigrants to provide services for them. The immigrants will push down unskilled labor prices by the very simple laws of supply and demand. The immigrants will not compete on the labor market with the rich.

This is why the rich in the modern world have always been the ones pushing for more immigration, and the poor have always pushed against. Upper class businessmen and media people strut around like they're MLK but they really just want to pay their maid and gardener less.
Freedom is never absolute. You can respect other people's freedom to disagree with you, but not their freedom to kill you. You can choose to only stop them from the latter, but not the former.
The BMJ article, near the end, reports that the FDA actually did investigate and did find issues with the trial.

> An FDA review memorandum released in August this year states that across the full trial swabs were not taken from 477 people with suspected cases of symptomatic covid-19.

Of course, this comes after insinuating earlier that there is a complete lack of oversight.

> “There’s just a complete lack of oversight of contract research organisations and independent clinical research facilities,” says Jill Fisher, professor of social medicine at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine and author of Medical Research for Hire: The Political Economy of Pharmaceutical Clinical Trials.

I guess since you yourself were misled according to their own inconsistencies, maybe that is enough to convince you that the article is misleading.

I moved to Miami in 2017, couldn't find any kind of interesting work in machine learning or genomics. I started the machine learning meetup, which did end up with an enthusiastic but inexperienced community. My friend also moved to Miami at the same time and the only interesting graphics related jobs in the whole area were in Magic Leap. The startup scene was anemic and superficial. People we met who had deep technical skills all had one foot out the door, bound for Austin, SF, Durham, New York, &c. Eventually we both left and now live in Durham.
How do you deal with menus running into it?
Having programmed in both Rust and Go: I mostly didn't need what this does in Go because my problem was usually solved by panic'ing, which prints a stack trace of each go routine, allowing me to get enough of the way through figuring out my current problem (usually something was stuck waiting or sending). In tokio, there's no such print-stack behavior, so it's much harder to get a snapshot of what's going on. (I'm relatively new to tokio and Rust, so there's perhaps a handy "print all the tokio tasks and their stack traces" method, but I haven't come across it yet.)

If folks use this console thing for perf reasons and not debug reasons, then yeah, maybe cool to have in Go.

^ I just defined a type with no inhabitants [1] along with the ability to use a value of it to prove anything. And it leans on the type system features & ergonomics Go & Rust don't even get close to having.

This is a pedantic example in a way, but this type is actually very useful in practice! And defining the type almost reads like English (or at least math English.)

Haskell is just a different world. You program with type variables of different shapes and sizes and relationships like it's nothing and it Just Works. Go's new generics & Rust's are crufty in comparison. Both due to syntax and semantics.

Ammonia, NH_3?
Please correct me if I'm doing it wrong:

Scripts are collection data from external sources
Scripts are inserting Data to DB
Other Scripts are fetching DB and adding Data to other tables

Sure I mean it was mentioned, that data was missing and so on. But in a mature project you basically have already some monitoring, so you could just use existing solution instead of a new Framework.

Is there something wrong with such an approach?

I think the "loophole" here is that - despite the marketing claims - Tesla is NOT testing a system which is designed to run without active monitoring by a human. This is unlike Cruise, Waymo etc. who do fall under this law.
I also think that it's a big problem and was thinking that not mentioning it would be an easier way to deal with it (i.e. expel the perpetrators). Expelling students who harass other students, or giving death threats (for the case of Emerson) should be a relatively straightforward decision without getting politics involved.

To me the problem with blockchains is that they don't actually do anything except cause environmental externalities. That seems to be their entire purpose, done in the service of keeping the currency deflationary so the early investors continue getting richer off of new participants. I've read countless articles and technical papers about them and, aside from the whole ponzi scheme aspect, I still can't understand why anyone would choose it over any other distributed database that doesn't require transaction fees and a proof-of-something system to keep the system online.
I have to have my hands on the wheel and looking at the road near-constantly otherwise autopilot turns off, even if I look at my phone the car warns me to pay attention to the road. I am 100% a safer driver with autopilot on (on the highways - FSD on side streets isn’t there yet) because I can focus my attention on higher level details of my surroundings, such as a semi merging onto the highway 3 lanes over or a driver swerving in and out of traffic several cars away, instead of micromanaging the wheel and pedals to stay in my lane and a safe distance from the car in front of me - the autopilot handles that flawlessly.

Times have changed. I've lived through that era where much of my childhood years were living under the impending threat of a takeover but over the years, I've come to realize that the path laid by the late Lee Teng-hui had been a noble and justified one.

The nearly non-existent line between public and private sector in China really derails all possible discussion and comparison to equivalences outside of China, but regardless I just don't find what goes on in China to be different enough when we tolerate the same things from the private sector that runs our daily life. It isn't different enough for me to draw the line at "but our government isn't doing it".

I suppose it depends on what "capable" means.

If you mean that a Tesla with FSD can be used to drive without human control, then that is definitely true since the tests for driver alertness can be bypassed.

If you mean that a Tesla with FSD has the level of technological sophistication needed to drive autonomously, that is also true: if you bypass the checks for driver alertness, the Tesla can continue driving (albeit not safely). This is well beyond the range of most "driver assistance" technologies.

If you mean that a Tesla can drive autonomously without bypassing any checks for driver alertness, then no, it cannot, but only assuming these checks never fail and are always sufficient to prevent it from being used without active monitoring.

Tesla's case seems weak here, in that it relies on an extremely narrow interpretation of the law, according to which a system that can drive autonomously but tries to prevent you from doing so is not considered truly autonomous.

But IANAL, so perhaps Tesla has a better case than I'd assume.
