If you have to do this, which you really don't, but if you do, start with cooking recipes, move on to algorithms, and the pseudocode. That is all.

Guys always get the family wrong. Always. The father's task is not to raise and edify the child. Your task is only to support your wife and the mother of your children. Bonus points for loving your children. But let them do whatever the heck they want, and keep your mouth shut, because it isn't your problem and it isn't your job. Your problem is your wife. Other than providing for your family and doing your husbandly duties, you can change the oil, pay the bills, and keep the house secure and energy efficient. It's when people overreach that problems occur. If everyone would just do their jobs, things would be fine. But instead we have OCD control freak fathers that want to live their children's lives for them. Back off before you do serious damage, and just be happy, and if you can't, maybe talk to a psychologist once a month.
> your proposal isn't as efficient, since it calls strlen on construction of string_view

The code it replaces also had a strlen in it.
Measuring vaccine effectiveness in terms of protection against infection (as in the article you linked) is pointless. We expect almost everyone to get infected. What actually matters is protection against severe symptoms, and even with the Omicron variant the vaccines are still pretty good at that.

No one is cheering them because they don't happen. They advocate for them, but it doesn't happen, even when cost and profits are skyrocketing.
Lol. I know plenty of Republicans and Democrats who agree with eachother as to who is male and female. In both directions.

Party affiliation is more about what your priorities are rather than where you lie on any random issue.
> the people using this sort of rhetoric aren't interested in being proven wrong. They have chosen consciously or otherwise to vilify a group, or buy into preexisting vilification.

I’d love to be proven wrong on this point. Any data you can share that red/blue is not the most efficient segmentation for pro/anti-vaxx and/or pro/anti-test?
We would use a version of this concept in client reviews, and construction inspections are known to do the same. WHen you know there are things that you would rather not have the client notice, put something so obvious that is easily corrected. The client sees that, feels great that they actually had something to say/do/etc, and then the rest slips through.
My suspicion is that this has more to do with propping up their falling stock price, through increasing prices and profit though this is secondary to the stock price.

They've already maxed out their US and international subscriber base, they're likely running out of show ideas to bring in a new audience, and any subscriber base increase from here on is an uphill climb.

So simplest way to increase revenue, profits and hence stock price? Increase monthly subscription fees and hope that those who stay and pay the higher prices make up for people who will jump ship. My guess is they have done this analysis already internally and determined that it's the right way to go for company finances.

Just to summarize their financial situation: in 2020, they made $25 billion in revenue and $2.76 billion net income (slightly over 10% profit margin). Revenue grew 24% from 2019 to 2020 (I think likely subscriber count increase.)

Their stock price high seems to be $691 in November 2021, and since then their stock price has fallen roughly 25% to mid or low $500s now.
The slightly gross, slightly enraging content they're talking about also made me think of internet chum buckets too.
In Revolut's case it's the banking license that makes them an "actual bank".
What more can I do if I own _the movie_ that I am not able to do after ripping the blu ray?

DRM is as anti-consumer as Apple and Tesla's policy saying the owner of a product can't repair their own product. Having physical ownership and removing drm is the only meaningful way to take ownership of a movie that doesn't rely on the good grace of an outside party. The US has laws against unrightful search and seizure and due process. The government can't "simply" take things away from me, at least in the US. True digital ownership of media requires the ability to playback things without relying on a third party. That's only possible having a dedrmed rip/reencoded copy. In practical terms, my legal rights on how I can view content is tangential to owning media, what matters is my actual ability to view it.

Anecdotally I’m aware of someone who was able to reverse a lot of their symptoms with high doses of Vitamin D.

There’s a biochemist here giving advice about being cautious. That goes without saying, but it always strikes me as disingenuous careerism to recommend people with terrible illnesses to not experiment. That’s the bedrock of scientific inquiry.

It may be the case there’s nothing out there that can help alleviate MS even a little, but it’s worth trying, especially if the cost is low and the burden of the disease is high.

Jeez, she is more than middle class, she is upper middle class, 750k home in st.louis is huge, and Whitfield private school is very expensive. It is like if Mark Zuckerburg claimed to be from the streets. One thing i will say is i've also seen plenty of underrepresented minorities who are pretty much upper middle class or just rich, claim racial hardship and whatnot to get really good opportunities (Imagine if Obama's children wrote an essay about how hard their lives have been cause they are black). I guess there will always be people who will use dirty tactics to get ahead. One i particularly love is when a friend i had in high school, used the immigrant experience to try to get into his target school, like both of his parents were doctors lol
I wish I was still a virgin.
> - Many Brazilians seemingly think "mas" (but) and "mais" (more) are the same word because they pronounce it similarly and thus end up using "mais" for everything, even in writing

In the Carioca accent, mas and mais have the same pronunciation (“maish” with the s chiado) so it’s easy to confuse one for the other. This has to do with the Carioca tendency to “change” (there’s a linguistic term but I forget) certain vowels. Nós is pronounced “noish”, gas “gaish” and Petrobras “Petrobraish”.

I guess the mas/mais confusion carries over in writing albeit being incorrect.

This does not happen in thr Paulista accent or most other accents I know.

It was one of my favorite classes too!

I remember that BATNA (best alternative to a negotiated agreement) was the most important factor (but the least interesting, it can't be improved as a skill). If the figures of employees switching jobs are as high as they say, that means either lots of impossible negotiations (misfits) or lots of negotiation failures.
Wow, this is really gross. I used to know some people there, and thought they were fairly decent. I'd ask "what happened", but that's just redundant.

What's especially sad is I can't imagine this does them any good - the Venn diagram of people who would be fooled by this nonsense and sort of person who cares about open source seems pretty thin, so I have trouble imagining that pissing on the floor like this even helps them.

But I would encourage everyone to post the results of asking them where to download their source code.

I have looked Futhark, however...

What I find more interesting is things like Dyna-Soar[1] as well as the parent project/paper. Futhark seems primarily very tensor-type computation specific (like APL+ extra features) and I'm interested in things that more naturally prone to code and data divergence and in trying to find ways to compensate for this.

That's funny, I have a WebOS OLED and specifically never set it up/use a Roku instead because it's so much cleaner.
> because the strong multiregional hypothesis is completely dead.

If you do a Google Books search of the cited quote, you'll find that A) the cited sentence doesn't actually support your assertion, and B) the surrounding context (shockingly left out of the wiki) basically says that the hypothesis is mainstream science.

"It needs to be noted, however, that this is a minority view among paleoanthropologists, most of whom support the African replacement model. This of course does not mean that [guys who support strong multiregional hypothesis] are incorrect, and they do raise some interesting points."

So while I'm wide open to the idea that this hypothesis is dead, the actual cited sources basically says that it's mainstream science. And given that the parent comment's only real assertion was that...

> [the article] starts looking alot like the rest of politicized "science"

...I've got to say--your comment does more to strengthen this assertion than to rebut it.

I think their point was that facebook doesn't care if it's good or bad so long as it's free to them and engaging.

The metadata for the file do take space on the disk, but are never taken into account when mentioning the file size.

In code golf competition the shortest program (in bytes) wins.
I don't think anyone ever included there the bytes taken by the metadata of the files, so in theory any solution implemented in this language is the best possible: 0 bytes.
A strlen of a compile-time constant, which will certainly get turned into a constant by the compiler. It does not get the length of the input string.

I think you can make a good electric steering without compromising the sensations of driving. Just decreasing its power with the car speed it would work fantastic.

Probably the problem here is the amount of time and money required to do that, and is easier to just set the servo at a fixed amount of torque when the user turn the steering wheel.
My feeling, from ~eight years as a mostly-highschool math and science teacher plus parenting as my main work these last few years, is that this motivation to learn is best established very early on, hence my support for universal birth-to-three support (I’m in the USA) in the interest of minimizing adverse childhood experiences (ACEs/trauma) and teaching parents how to cultivate a growth mindset. Intrinsic motivation is powerful.
I was not a beneficiary of such care, and have done a lot of re-learning, especially around what I’m feeling, and being okay with not doing “perfect”.
I guess this would make it possible to ransomware LG tv's by simply visiting a website.
Interesting question! Not a linguist, but I’d be inclined to the view that the word boundary itself is phonemic: these can be transcribed (for me) as /ma͡is poː/ vs /ma͡i spoː/. Supporting this analysis is the fact that the [p] vs [pʰ] distinction then can be derived using the same phonological rules as usual; also, for me, the /a͡i/ in /ma͡is/ is slightly shorter than that in /ma͡i/. But, as I said, exactly pinning down the phonemes of a language can be tricky.
A Vaio P is not a cheap option. They were expensive new and are kinda collectable so prices are high on eBay and other places compared to other laptops from the same time. It's also considerably smaller than even the 11" MBA, weighs half a pound less too. Remember how Steve Jobs pulled the MacBook Air out of a manilla envelope? The Vaio P was designed to be pulled out of a jacket pocket.
That's why some people prefer motorcycles :-)

If it's any consolation it's doing the rounds in my 7-year-old's class and none of them have had much worse than feeling a bit achy with a bit of a temperature. They've all had much worse from the usual bugs that do the rounds at school. Of course this is anecdata, and most people have family or friends who are vulnerable and need to be protected, but if it's just about your child then it's very unlikely to be a problem if they have no underlying conditions.
a century of propaganda has led everyone to think that the police spend a lot of effort 'solving' crimes, but a cursory look at clearance statistics will reveal otherwise.

to the extent that police are an effective anti-crime tool, it primarily stems from their physical presence (racially profiled harassment) as a deterrent. outside of homicides & some PR-useful drug enforcement, police departments spend most of their time discouraging people from filing police reports after actual crimes, harassing poor people, and meeting traffic citation quotas
busts are usually followed by booms. Current projections expect the population size to level out around 10.9 billion eventually.

This winter Brussels Airlines made 3,000 unnecessary flights just to maintain their airport spots.

We certainly have a lot of efficiency gains to make first with regards to our consumption before looking at the sheer number of people we have to feed
Its worth noting that 80% of those the develop post viral conditions just recover, we don't know why. It is unlikely your intervention is the reason you recovered, the majority of people do even if they do nothing at all. We do know that those that rest and stay below their energy budget have a better chance but that is about it, nothing else has shown efficacy.
I have one of those Peugeots, got it for my wedding, and thought I would love it. It's gorgeous, but sadly, it's just plain awful at doing what pepper mills are for: generating pepper. It's better as a forearm workout than as a grinder of pepper. Sad, but true.

That Unicorn can't compete either, btw. Grind rate is much slower and it's made of plastic.

Männkitchen's marketing sounds exaggerated...until you use the product. It's just unreal.
I remember growing up in a 2nd generation home and with many immigrant friends, people would always say "Oh there isn't a word for that in english, its very unique" and then I would tell them the word which was usually not a common word but required some vocabulary knowledge. English is also the largest with over 200k words. Not to say there isn't words like this just that it takes deep vocabulary knowledge in two languages at the same time to know.
With "compensation" winning maybe it's relevant to think about the effects of runaway inflation. Currently getting up to ~10% (US). It would make sense as peoples purchasing power diminishes they reassess their earning potential.
Fortunately, poverty is recessing everywhere else in the world, but not everywhere it seems.

It is saddening to see my home country (Madagascar) sinking year after year into a deeper and deeper hole, despite having known no military conflicts since 1942 and being independent for six decades. We've been facing climatic and environmental issues for the last 5 decades and a worsening general economic health since 2009 with more than rampant inflation due to the devaluation of the national currency with regards to the U.S. Dollar or the Euro, a steep increase in state corruption. The general population lack of education regarding ecology and being a responsible citizen seem to self-sustain the destruction of the country.

I was responding to a specific comment, which seemed to be referring to rising case counts. I agree it's likely that almost everyone will get infected, many have been saying this for two years.

As for "what actually matters," that entirely depends on the problem you are trying to solve, the solutions you are putting on the table, and the human value systems at play.

Omicron has been strikingly mild, regardless of vaccination status. A new study of over 52,000 infected found "zero cases with Omicron variant infection received mechanical ventilation." https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.01.11.22269045v...

It seems very similar to the US influence on other English speaking cultures: the African diaspora influence on all aspects of culture in both countries - language, sport (the case has been made that boxing, basketball soccer/football and more are all directly influenced by asthetic stylings of African origin), music (blues, rock, samba, forro, hip-hop, soul, funk both the Brazilian and American types) literature (the places and people written about by Jorge Amado, Machado de Assis, ToninMorriaon) etc. and in my experience the ruling castes of both countries have sort of devauled or ignored the absolute saturation of these cultural influences over generations even as they have become the foundation which popular culture is built on and exported from both countries.
Yeah I think many who’ve been in bad work situations like this don’t realize that not every company is like that. There are sane employers and teams out there that treat each other with respect. Please take that into consideration before going the other extreme of trying to start your own company, unless that’s always been a goal of yours

I can speak as someone who has taught CS in high school in a few different East Asian countries, including Taiwan. The bias exists, but is less pronounced than it was 10 or 15 years ago. Boys will make remarks, but if you nip it quickly at the start then it's generally ok.

I teach all four years in high school and each year I get more females rolling up. My recent graduating classes have had more females, but still only 20% or so, but my entry level classes now are 50/50.

Oddly, every female I've had who takes the higher level CS classes has graduated with the highest mark you can get on the exit exams. They routinely destroy the boys on any test and with regard to programming skills. Sadly, some of those who take it at the lower level are pushed by their parents to take other classes at higher levels in preparation for university admission. Parents sometimes carry that bias that females should not be engineers.

It's only a single word because the gluing together words is a national German pastime (and, more importantly, a feature of the German language). That makes the distinction of expression vs word somewhat meaningless.
