The mathematical term for this is a "fixed point", where f(x) == x.

Assuming a perfectly random uniform distribution, the usual desirable property of a cryptographic hash - the probability of a hash function not having a fixed point (that is, hashing at least one x to itself) is (1-1/n)**n, where n is the number of possible outputs. As n approaches infinity - which it does pretty rapidly in this case, since we're talking about 2**32 to 2**512 in practice - this approaches 1/e, or about 37%.

So, not only is it possible, but most "good" hash functions (63% of them) will have them.
That’s indeed interesting. Assuming detailed pictures, it sounds then that finding the original purpose might only be feasible if there are any very significant remnants of the registers purpose… (And then it seems much harder, but not impossible, a bit akin to reading very optimized compiler generated machine code).

Most jurisdictions view EULA as being perfectly legal, so while you might not like them, they’re here and they’re binding on your usage of the software.

Also, you’re certainly entitled to ask a software supplier to show you the EULA before you exchange funds and to refuse to purchase if they won’t share the terms, that’s really how all businesses buy software or engage in services contracts for things like AWS.

You could also ASK for a refund if you receive software with a EULA you find unacceptable (whether the refund is granted is another question …) since I don’t think you have the automatic right to one in most countries.

That's probably for the best, as the ones that ship are often old and buggy, and Apple doesn't seem to care for maintaining them (even if they pretend to care about developers).

This is very cool and it arrives at a good time: I have a whole delete-back-word thumb key on my split-key, and I've been trying to train myself to use it with little success. This is actually perfect.

I recognize this might push against the minimalism you're going for, but I might suggest having the next word, or even two words, off to the right and greyed out. What you're measuring is recognizing and typing the word, and most competent typists who want to lower error rates and gain speed are going to be fast enough already that they (we) can be recognizing the next couple of words while typing the one which is already centered.

A two-word lead would let me get up to speed, maybe that should be configurable but for the words I've seen while playing with it, probably two is just right.

Great site, I'll come back and use it as-is.
Because tech alone cannot control Covid. It certainly helps, and the US is doing an outstanding job for that part, but it is lacking in most other aspects.

Problems include:

- Ageing population, like in most developed countries (risk factor)

- High rate of obesity, diabetes (another risk factor)

- An individualistic, freedom loving population that doesn't like to be told what to do, even when it is for the greater good

- A weak welfare system, unable to act as a buffer during hard times. As a result the poor can't afford care, testing, and work then they shouldn't, spreading the virus

- A highly connected country with large, dense cities

An important aspect is that in order to control covid, you have to control people. It is hard to control people when individual freedoms is a core value.

Is dying for your freedoms worth it? You decide. Because it is literally what is happening now (on a population scale).

Use a procedurally generated map as a template and enhance it with manually designed parts.

Or mix and match manually designed tiles with procgen stuff. This is similar to to what OP's newer link describes.

Another option is to develop a DSL that let's you describe the map in various degrees. "Put a random city there" vs "Put a city with these types of buildings there" vs "Put a city with a pawn shop at the northeast corner, an armor shop somewhere south, [...]".

AAA games often use parts of this. For example for plants, many aren't put there manually by the designer but by randomized code and the designer just selects the area in which they should grow.

Sure schools are well funded in comparison to others. Doesn't mean most teachers aren't routinely spending their own money on supplies. The “Just.

The US is rapidly losing experienced teachers, something which has only accelerated in the last two years.

>And also, covid 19 is not 1 to 4 percent lethal. It’s more like 0.02 percent lethal.

They did. If it's prescribable as a medication to treat anxiety or depression in the United States, I've tried it. I try and keep a very open mind, so even when many medications didn't work, I continued to try new ones and combinations with sufficient trial periods, but in the end what worked best for me (at that point in my life) was just not taking anything at all.

I'm not saying medication is not effective - it was extremely effective for me in different phases of my life and probably saved me from suicide, however in my adult life I found the emotional blunting and apathy that came with not just SSRIs but DSRIs and other classes of medications to be extremely concerning.

I did the same as the parent. The answer is that mercury based UV lamps produce a spiky broad spectrum including emission lines really where you don't want them. And not very much at the frequency that is most effective at destroying RNA/DNA. 220nm is important because it's very effective at cross linking thymine.

UV LEDs can be manufactured to produce a very narrow spectrum centered on 220nm. So with an LED the total amount of UV produced is much less and doesn't include problematic frequencies that cause eye and tissue damage. Supposedly, I don't work in this space.

Note most UV LED's aren't suitable for sterilization. If it comes in a plastic case and costs 30 cents, it's certainly not.

Weird sub-communities and ballpits (timestamp 5:05) are not a famously good combination.
There are a lot of confounding variables in the question but if you look at the labour required to operate the average farm size in Iowa (360 acres) it is not a full time job, not close to a full time job.

Grain farming doesn't become a full time job until you reach over 1000 acres, if a guy farms one section of land and makes a decent living and chooses to spend that extra time enjoying life, more power to 'em, but farming in that 640-1280 acre pocket scales really well - it is a choice!

The over half of farmers in Iowa, most of which are row-crop farmers, that are running farms under 640 acres, are they dropping out because of economic pressure? Maybe some, but I think mostly it is old-timers that had a great run but they have a business that provides half an income to the next generation at the current scale and the next generation would rather do one thing than two. Either way, Dad's not retiring "poor"!

(This happens a lot in my neck of the woods, lots of 1,000 acre-ish farmers retiring with kids that are professionals that "love the farm" but have no interest in it at this scale.)
Here's one, possibly very weird, man's perspective: there's truly no worse feeling than snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. To save a woman that torture, I might resign sooner than later.

Privacy.

You can't get an Apple ID without an email and a phone number.

When you enter it during the machine setup, it ties that identity to that hardware serial, which maintains a persistent TLS hardware-serial-linked connection to Apple at all times, letting them know in what cities and at what times that phone number's owner is using their computer.

The warranty issue is a red herring. A warranty is an affirmative guarantee of quality: you are (in essential concept of not in precise detail) agreeing to be held to a "strict liability" standard. If I buy real estate and I am granted a warranty deed, and the title to the property comes into question, the seller can be brought to account to make me whole or indemnify me, regardless of who is at fault for the title defect.

Without a warranty, you're not held to strict liability, but you can probably be held liable under the default legal regime. If I buy real estate and get a quit-claim deed, there is no promise that the seller has unencumbered rights to the property. However, if I can show the seller intentionally defrauded me, they can still be held civilly and criminally liable for the fraud.
> What exactly does colors do?

A picture is worth a thousand words → https://i.imgur.com/inxA7Pg.png

The library inserts ANSI escape sequences [1] between the text you want to colorize in order to, well, colorize it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Many people are obsessed with colors in the Terminal, and so, they reach out to libraries like this. They exist in every major programming language ecosystem, even though colorizing text is as simple as writing this \x1b[48;5;011<TEXT>\x1[0m . One of the disadvantages of this rudimentary colorization technique is that if you have short-term memory, you will quickly forget the meaning of these numbers, but you can solve that problem with constants, there is no reason to install a third-party library with potentially malicious code to add this type of functionality to a high-profile project like AWS-CDK [2].

I wish these libraries would support NO_COLOR [3] more consistently.

I have seen many “modern” CLI tools (the ones people like to build using Rust or Go) overuse colors with no option to disable them.

> His later statement was that the "real reason" they advised people not to wear masks was not actually the stated reason, but a completely different reason.

Again, he didn't comment on the factual basis of the original mask guidance, only the reason why he made a proclamation one way or another. You are reading between the lines a bit too hard here I reckon.

> That has always been obvious horseshit to anyone who knows anything about biology.

With SARS-2 and hindsight, sure. But had it been like all previous pandemic respiratory viruses including the one most closely related to this virus, where the vast majority of transmission occurs only after a carrier is symptomatic, no, masks wouldn't do much for people in the street as long as anyone with symptoms stayed home.

I think the guidance was muddled and he could have explained the rationale re: healthcare workers. But Fauci didn't later admit deception and what he said at the time wasn't out of line with a reasonable interpretation of available evidence.

I'm still convinced reddit's userbase is heavily composed of GPT-3 bots. There was a poster here that identified a large amount of accounts as bots by sending them a DM with a link and seeing how fast they opened it.

Everyone should write an IRC client as an exercise in network programming due to its simplicity. The other IM protocol for which I've written a client is early MSNP, which is also text-based and not immensely more complicated than IRC. IMHO all the newer web-based stuff is a horrible mess of abstraction bloat. TCP, and TLS if you want encryption, should be a sufficient base to build upon.

Indeed, just like VB6, tcl/tk is a great reminder of the late 90s.

> Because my freedom to live on a street where zero people have guns

You have no such freedom, and indeed no such is possible, unless you have correctly classified police as non-people.

The state always has guns, and the state is comprised of people. There is no world where "zero people have guns", ever, and it is intellectually dishonest to claim such. It takes people with guns to enforce a ban on private gun ownership.

Ultimately the debate is solely around which people have guns. Four legs bad.

That graph is from the UK, where most of the people spending time in hospital due to Covid are vaccinated. The thing is that as you can see from the graph, there's a huge difference in hospitalisation rates between age groups, and in the UK there's not that many unvaccinated people amongst the high-risk age groups. (Actually, I'd be interested what the error bars on that are because they're subtracting vaccinations from the population estimate to get the denominator of total unvaccinated people and it seems like that'd be very sensitive to errors in their population estimate.)

So there is a signficant reduction in the risk of hospitalisation from vaccination right now, but we're seeing close to all the benefit that we're likely to at least from a society-wide perspective. There's no way to stop the hospital system from collapsing just by rounding up the remaining unvaccinated and getting them vaccinated. (Individual unvaccinated people might of course get a lot of personal benefit from getting jabbed, depending on age and health.)
