I do not think you read the study I linked to in my comment. Men under 40 are more likely to suffer from vaccine induced myocarditis than from the infection. Your linked article does a population average and not specifically for men under 40.

In the United States, I've heard a number of people say they would rather old people die than have their freedoms violated. Their reasoning is people who die of COVID would have died anyway if COVID didn't happen.

My own parents still claim COVID isn't serious, despite my grandfather dying and me being very sick for four months.

I used to work at Lexis Nexis and I agree since I could see first hand how much personal data and information they have on individuals.

They also used theworknumber funny enough for any "employment verification" etc, pretty sure they have a partnership.
Well, above all, it's super convenient. The files stay where they are, you just mark them as "online only" and they don't take up space on your disk.

When you click to open such file or folder, it will immediately download back to your disk and you can use it again. You will lose maybe a few seconds once in a blue moon when you need one of them. But you easily gain hundreds of gigabytes of space on your SSD. Just yesterday I right-clicked some folders to mark them "online only" and immediately gained +300GB free space..

Plus of course you can access those files from your phone or ipad too, when needed. Basically I personally have all my work files in Dropbox and don't use additional backup (used Backblaze in the past).
You could fairly easily work with a bunch of .js files that get catenated together by using an editor that can jump to a definition.

Build processes creating one file is the seven decade norm in computing.

Even if you literally don't catenate the .js files into one, they get loaded into one running image one way or another.
> Bad abstraction are worse that lack of abstractions, basically.

I have found creating test seams in legacy OO code easier than starting from scratch with an untested 5000 line procedural file.

In that case, having some abstractions was better than having none.

But that's just my opinion.

I was recently diagnosed with ADHD. I am 34. Part of what took so long to get this diagnosed is that it is poorly named. I do not have a deficit of attention; in fact, I have extreme sustained attention [0].

If the symptoms described by the parent poster are causing you to suffer, please consider that it might be ADHD, and that ADHD does not necessarily manifest in the way it's name suggests it should.

Please also consider that lightweight treatment can drastically improve your quality-of-life. Stimulant therapy has provided immediate relief for me, like flipping a switch [1]. The best part is that I still enjoy the positive aspects of my ability to hyperfocus. Only now, my attention feels like a servant rather than a master.

[1] I have a fairly moderate case of ADHD, so YMMV.

> I mean the zen being wrong is kind of a meme at this point. The whole “only one obvious way to do it” isn’t just false but the exact opposite is true. Python is one of the most flexible languages with many many ways to do the same thing; more than any other language I can think of.

Not in comparison to Perl, which usually has multiple ways to do anything, each 'obvious' to different sets of people (each Perl codebase therefore seems to have a distinct dialect based on which 'obvious' alternatives are chosen).

The other direction languages can take that is being contrasted, is there being one non-obvious way to do something.

Python's 'most obvious way' isn't necessarily the fastest/most concise/most efficient/scalable/etc. way to do something in Python, but it will usually be obvious to most Python developers. And although broad styles have certainly developed over time (imperative, functional, OO) as Python has gained power and flexibility, the dictum still largely holds true.

> the author used two different ways of hyphenating

No, first, it doesn't use hyphenating at all, it uses hyphens as an ASCII approximation for typographical dashes used to set off a phrase (a distinct function from hyphenation), and, second, in that quote they used one way of doing it: “two dashes set closed on the side of the main sentence and set open on the side of set-off phrase”.

It is an unusual way of doing it—just as with actual typographical dashes, setting open or closed symmetrically would be more common—but it's not two ways.

EDIT: And the third use (in the heading and later in the body) is seperating parts where neither is a mid-sentence appositive phrase, and uses open-on-both sides. So that's not a different way of doing the same thing, it's a different way of doing a semantically different thing.

Actually, I think the dash use makes a good illustration of how the “it” in “one way to do it” is intended.
I mean there are plenty of time travel or space travel movies you could say the same thing about.

Maybe look in your country for PEOs and suggest one (ideally their HR would do this, but small company). They should cost about $1k/month, plus whatever benefits they're giving you.

The equity may be entirely impossible though; depending on your country, that can be a landmine of laws.

I like the explicit nature of Python's imports.

And especially how I can choose the best way to indicate the sources of names in my code:

import time
t = time.perf_counter()

import time, my_module
t1 = time.perf_counter()
t2 = my_module.perf_counter()

from time import perf_counter as std_counter
from my_module import perf_counter as my_counter
t1 = std_counter()
t2 = my_counter()

try:
from my_module import perf_counter
except ImportError:
# Fall back to standard implementation
from time import perf_counter
t = perf_counter()

# import time as m
import my_module as m
t = m.perf_counter()

It really depends on the game/platform, but getting used to using a reverse engineering tool and a debugger is a must.
If you can, use IDA, I'm stuck with Ghidra for now but most of the time I have to work against it to get stuff done.
Even with C output you'll still need to get used to working with assembly to hook stuff, and do other code modifications.
(You can use a library like detours, but when things start crashing it really helps to know exactly what every piece of your code is doing.)
Also imgui/nuklear really help with getting a nice GUI for your mods early on.

Though tbh the best thing you can do is just pick up a game you like and just have a go at reversing it, it'll be a bit slow but the more you reverse the easier it gets.
After you reverse it it's just a matter of looking up each topic (ie dll injection, hooking, etc) as you need them.
None of them are that hard, they just seem overwhelming if you try doing them all at once.
This is really cool.

Oddly it seems to get the wrong name for a river in my hometown. If I drop a pin in Columbus, OH it should flow into a creek or whatever, then the Scioto River and down to the Ohio. But the listing shows the Scioto as "Paint Creek." This misnaming of the Scioto River holds true as I head South and try in Circleville or Chillocothe. Still really neat!

Back when the GBA was still newish, I bought and installed a front-light kit for mine. After that mod, the display was still utterly terrible and useless for fast-moving games like Sonic and Metroid, but at least you could SEE it.

It being an easy choice for you has nothing to do with whether it should be mandated for everyone.

You are making bald speculative comments about long term complications when the vaccines have had zero long term studies.

Myocarditis is not a non serious issue. We are talking about heart inflammation of young and healthy people who have negligible risks from Covid.

In Ontario, 70% of myocarditis required hospitalization.

When there’s a risk, there must be a choice.
Setting an appropriate user style using something like Stylus to override it should work. See how this one does it: https://userstyles.world/style/2264/unblock-algoexpert-text-...

Pretty neat! Not the most accurate near Chicago. When the Des Plains and Chicago river run perpendicular the "rain drop" would skip over the Des Plains and into the Chicago river. Also it would flow toward Lake Michigan, which isn't typically the case.
You're not going to have Starlink in the countries where it's illegal in the first place, so there is no access to cut off. Right?
> Ontario is 77% vaccinated but over 81% of cases are vaccinated

77% fully vaccinated, 84% partially vaccinated. So yeah, lower. (By around 20% once you do the math)

> Even the rate of hospitalizations is now almost the same between the vaccinated vs unvaccinated here in Ontario.

No, it's like 6x lower.

Edit: Ah, I was looking at ICU numbers. Hospitalization rates, today, are similar. However, if Ontario is anything like other places hit by omnicron, the vaccinated patients will be out of the hospital in under a week, and the unvaccinated ones will remain longer and face more complications. So come back and see how things look in a week or two.

> By simply calling [a vaccine] a vaccine, you are doing a major disservice to the real actually effective vaccines.

No, I'm rejecting your antivax nonsense. Trying to say "no this isn't a vaccine so I'm not really antivax" is the trick you're trying to pull and I won't let you lie about that.
Uh, doesn’t the state plug into their ECU for emissions inspections?

That’s disappointing. I clicked in my backyard, but it started from a point about 20 miles south of my house. I tried a number of different times with the same results. I even have a creek at the bottom of the hill in my backyard that I assumed it would start with.
If you were curious like me what PDCA is, this is the procedure in the article.

Plan: Recognize an opportunity and plan a change.

Do: Test the change. Carry out a small-scale study.

Check: Review the test, analyze the results, and identify what you’ve learned.

Act: Take action based on what you learned in the study step. If the change did not work, go through the cycle again with a different plan. If you were successful, incorporate what you learned from the test into wider changes. Use what you learned to plan new improvements, beginning the cycle again.
Well, this is where it comes down to understanding statistics. Yes, that subject we all hated in college and could not wait to pass and forget about. I think I can say that most A/B testing is, to be kind, statistically flawed. At the same time, it is possible to think that only some of the largest websites might have enough traffic to do it right (whatever that means).

And then there's the big question: How much of business did you lose in the process of arriving at what seems like an optimal solution (which might just be a local peak, rather than a global optimum point)?

That said, what's the alternative? To optimize, or not, that is the question.

I very much doubt dynamic typing will ever come back, it's a thing of the past now. No sane new project will ever start in a dynamically typed language.

Not practically they're not. They would suffer fines, at worst you'd have the people running the company get fined, at an absolute extreme they'd go to jail (VW/dieselgate). You could argue that prison time is the point that it backed by violence, but I must admit I'm fairly surprised that we're discussing the validity of laws and regulation as a concept in general, in response to regulating industrial pollution.
> There is no treaty or law that gives ECJ 'Supremacy'

Not necessarily.

T-Mobile could respond to DNS requests with an IPv6 address that includes an encoding of Amazon.com's IPv4 address in it so that when you try to connect it it, the gateway knows what IP address you're looking for and can do the NATing there.

Of course, this is just conjecture about a possible way of making it work, and it could easily get broken if you configure your phone to use a different DNS server.
Seems reasonable, I suppose you could say similar things about hard cider and other camouflaged alcohol, which the cynic in me says are actually intended to attract teens before they are of age...
> ...it's pretty tough to argue such languages really shouldn't exist.

"Shouldn't exist" is too strong.

Dynamic languages that let you create a new variable via assignment shouldn't be used to create non-trivial software. How about that?

Scripting languages have a place. That place is 100% in creating quick-and-dirty scripts and tools. Or in doing some kind of one-off data transform (as is common in machine learning scenarios). Anything that has a life span of two weeks or less, or a code length of fewer than a hundred lines? Yeah, script languages rock for that.

Explicit/static typing adds vastly more value to large projects than the cost of the overhead. The fact that you can't really gain that value in Python means that Python should be relegated to quick and dirty scripts.

Same for JavaScript, Ruby, and other completely dynamic languages.

You'll note that all of these languages are getting types one way or another, meaning that there are a lot of people who do recognize their value. Though TypeScript is years ahead of the rest in the completeness and sophisticated of its type system; bugs like the comma bug detailed by OP, along with simply every JavaScript "wat" bug, simply can't happen in TypeScript in strict mode. And static types enables entire other categories of bugs to be detectable via a linter as well.

There is Article 7, which can result in the suspension of the voting rights of the member state, but it's pretty slow. They have also been working on new mechanisms exactly because of rule of law violations by some member states (including Poland and Hungary). Poland is actually being sanctioned, AFAIK, for 1M EUR/day as of now for some violation. I think it's related to their restrictive abortion laws (and they are ignoring the ruling of the European Court, or something like that).

This is besides withholding the funds, which have been mentioned by others and which is happening to Hungary as of now. They are withholding 7.2 billion EURs of the reconstruction fund due to claims of high corruption and an inadequate legal structure and thus control over how it's being spent. (I.e. they can't see the guarantees that a sizeable chunk of it won't be stolen and/or spent on things other than what it's intended for.) And it is, indeed a direct consequence (one of the direct consequences) of the lack of adequate rule of law. No wonder: the very reason these guys dismantle democracy is to seize more power, keep the power and to steal us much as they can. (Which is, besides the obvious personal motivations, is a requisite for operating their power structure.)

EDIT: typos.
I think the the shear volume of technical garbage plays an important role here. Artistic license lets you skip and fudge some technical details that would detract from the story if you covered them properly, but you can only take that so far.

Depends on what you are targeting. The bare Windows API was tragic, but you could avoid a lot of the low-level stuff with some care, and the Amiga felt much nicer - the events you'd deal with were much higher level, but the environment itself was not. Macs had a reasonable GUI designer (at least for dialog boxes). Where Unix excelled was in the rich tooling that didn't exist (or was poorly implemented) on other platforms - lex, yacc, grep, sed, m4, some source control versioning tools, pipes, etc - it was developed mostly for programmers, by programmers, so that's not surprising.
