Funny how I've drifted into using multiple text editors for different purposes over the years.

* Vim as default

* VSCode for Rust, the integration with Rust Analyzer is seamless. Semantic highlighting theme availability is also top notch

* Sublime Text for temporary or unsaved files and small file regex

* Notepad++ for huge file regex

Each in their right place (for my purposes anyway).

Well, much simpler stuff.

You have a logistic dataset of objects/GPS/time. Fine. Now you add historic truck data which is location time series. If is not obvious how you can learn the delivery times between 2 items.

You need human expertise, and design a way to extract usable routes, and also solve multi-hop routes, and then maybe you can learn typical speed between 2 items.

It is doable. But it not with a generic "multi-modal architecture".

If you live forever you can learn a new skill. There's also an incentive to get to financial independence.

Population isn't an issue and I'm confused why this is frequently brought up. But then again people think America is over populated while it's extremely population sparse. The truth is that every first world country has birth rates well below replacement. Most developing countries do too or are on their way. Countries where people live longer and have education have declining populations. It's wouldn't be surprising if people who were immortal didn't have kids until they were able to reach financial independence. Be that in their 90's or 900's.

I also don't think people will want to do the same jobs forever. We have infinite time. It's okay if it takes 50 years of schooling and 50 years to become a Sr engineer. Time is different. It's also more incentive for automation so little can just live.

My wife and I live in the same condo I used to live in as a bachelor. My frugal single self saw the electric bill for heating and AC around $50/month. I would only use the heating or AC for an hour or two when I got back from work, which would be enough to heat or cool the apartment until morning.

After we got married and my wife moved in, we use the heat a lot, lot more since she can't stand the cold (she's fine without the AC - even more so than me). The electric bill during the peak winter months easily balloons to $300-400 now.

I'm not even a big fan of cryptocurrencies and think that the environmental impact of BTC is a heck of a lot worse than 'terrorists' possibly, potentially using it.

Lira crisis fuels Bitcoin boom in Turkey
StackOverflow jobs are extremely overpriced, even if you can find what the price is - no wonder they don't value this area of the business enough to keep it - who wants to place a job ad at $500?

At $500 an ad a small company needs to justify that purchase - especially when finding someone may take six months and 8 ads. Of course StackOverflow Jobs won't be the choice for that sort of talent search at $500 per ad.

They should have made job ads $50 each and advertised the price up front.

It is worth noting that in the current economic conditions job ads are dramatically less effective because there is a shortage of developers and because recruiters are now contacting candidates directly. That said, job ads are not dead - job ads need to adjust to the market conditions. Job ads used to be worth $500, now they are worth $50 - that's how the recruiting market has changed.

At the moment it is extremely hard to find developers - this results in lots and lots of job ads.

StackOverflow management are clearly inexperienced/incompetent in the recruiting field if they can't capitalise on this in the current environment.

What a waste.

This reminds me of something about flash games in the 2000s. I was in high school at the time and every morning in class I would check onemorelevel, kongregate, etc for new games. There was a pattern in flash games where someone would make a great simple game with an interesting, novel, or long-forgotten mechanic. It would get to the frontpage of all these sites, and a few months later you'd see that mechanic mixed with every other popular flash game mechanic. It was really cool to see a community of creative people embrace an idea and then beat it to death in a short period of time. I think in a lot of other creative genres, this kind of "copying your idea but a twist" is seen as poor form, plagiarism, or derivative. Maybe the flash game community was low enough stakes that it welcomed that kind of community engagement. I wonder what the people actually making the games thought.

Anyway, this is a really cool example of that. It's wordle, but with a twist.
I view all "free for life" promotions like this. Years ago I bought a free for life hosting plan from some provider. It lasted several years before they decided enough was enough. They moved the free tier people over to a server that would make an AWS micro instance look like the modern version of a Cray. I contacted them to complain about it and they essentially said, "What did you expect?"

I had paid $400 for this plan when they were just getting started as a way of supporting them and helping them bootstrap their business. I learned my lesson, however. I had been using their main service for clients at the time and I moved everything away and never considered them again. Absolutely cost them more than the savings they thought they were gaining (probably cost them more than their savings in just the first month).

This is actually what I am looking for, i.e. answer to "then what do you mean?". Standard should define how to divine the apparent intent of the programmer, so that compilers can do divination consistently. So far, proposals have been lacking in detailed instruction of how to do this divination.
Correlation is not causation, but we've been on a 50+ year crusade in American culture to destroy any sort of multi-economic-strata commons.

IMHO, the affluent suburbs in the article are both a symptom- and cause-of rudeness. Most of these kids have never worked a customer service job for minimum wage. It's possible even their parents haven't.

And that's not bad, per se, but if the problem is "People treat customer service workers like shit," then you could start at worse places than empathetic employment experience.

> They allowed to make the transition and go full grow mode.

The point of bootstrapping is making the compromise where you trade a lower growth rate for the benefit of retaining 100% ownership of your business. Your statement is a VC funding model, even if the money is called seed and you are not trying to become a unicorn.

Your giving away equity for money is simply not bootstrapping. Calling your business bootstrapped is lying in my opinion. What I think doesn’t matter, but being deceitful is silently judged by others where their opinions do matter to you, and the consequences of that are usually invisible.
Indeed but at least they dogfood their work and they like the result (can't understand why.)
I had the same basic thought while reading this: the only alternative here is to interpret this sort of undefined behavior in a "different" way (such as the way the K&R originally interpreted it) and leave it up the programmer to intuit what other assumptions the compiler is making on their behalf. Like... I can assume that the compiler will interpret:

if (i++ < i)

as

mov ax, i
inc ax
cmp ax, i
jge else

... but that's still me making a (reasonable?) assumption. The C spec essentially just says "don't program that way".

However, I do see benefits because I’m the kind of person that let’s little stressors accumulate over time. My somewhat infrequent usage has always come with a reset of my stress. It would be nice if it didn’t also come with a bit of downtime the week after.
> For [1] I would say that when the compiler does not control the standard library (e.g. most linux systems) then the compiler should treat qsort like any normal non-libc function call, it shouldn't be able to detect that I might be relying on implementation-specific guarantees.

I am guessing, for example, that you are not aware that every compiler will optimize `printf("Hello, world!\n");` to `puts("Hello, world!\n");`. memcpy and memset are even more heavily-optimized function calls by the compiler: for example, they don't prevent memory-to-register promotion.

Interestingly those are all cases where I can easily imagine someone saying “murder” instead of “rape”. I also think those examples are pretty flippant and waste the impact of the word.

For the record, I think this particular use of the word “rape” to describe the poem’s butchering is reasonable. The work shown was utterly destroyed.

>> Why do you assume Earth microbes would outcompete martian microbes in their native environment?

> Yeah. More, why do you assume that martian microbes would not kill us?

While we can't conclusively argue one way or the other, I wager that life on Earth has probably been subjected to a wider range of states than life on Mars. Our life has explored evolutionary state space from geothermal, oceanic, and hundreds of terrestrial environments. Our microorganisms fiercely compete, and if one of them finds a new optima, the ecosystem adjusts.

While there could be some higher metabolomic maxima that life on Mars discovered, I'd wager it is statistically less likely.

An interesting way this thesis might be compromised however is if alien life uses an altogether different and (probably simpler) biochemistry. All life on Earth sits atop a remarkably uniform platform. Maybe alien life won't pay the same expenses for maintenance of cells and information, and they could compete metabolically in that sense.

> what do you suggest happened 30-40 years ago that triggered this massive spread of wealth, then?

It doesn't really matter what I suggest. Correlation does not imply causation.

But for instance, in China there were 700 million of people living in extreme poverty in 1990, and that number went down to 200 million in 2008, and 7 million in 2016 [1]. Regardless, internet penetration rate in China was 23% in 2008, and 53% in 2016 [2].

From the article in [1], it is easy to deduce that most advancements in extreme poverty eradication come from similar contexts, countries with larger populations that have experienced accelerated growth in the past decades, mostly because of manufacture and exports, e.g. India, Vietnam, or Brazil.

> If forEach is not to be used

That source is simply incorrect. forEach is perfectly fine to use as long as you realize what is happening. It iterates an array where each thing is a function that returns a promise. Of course the results aren't what they expect.

ES5 array additions suffer from being a little too early (though later stuff wouldn't exist otherwise, so...). They are designed to deal with holey arrays (arrays with indexes missing). This is extremely uncommon today, but was decently common once upon a time. They were also created before the iterator protocol.

The real fix is to design iterator versions that can handle things like async generator functions.

> it should be deprecated and removed from the language in a timely manner.

NOTHING can be removed from the language once added. Doing that would break all the older websites that depend on it (technically, a few minor breaks happened after they tested millions of sites and couldn't find anything that was adversely affected). At best, they can block older features from newer features. For example, using class syntax or a bunch of other ES6 language structures automatically makes your code shift into "use strict" mode.

I hope they introduce a "use strict 2" variant that strips away more of the undesirable features than the current "use strict" does.

> Since Javascript is based on C syntax, it should have the preprocessor that the birthplace of C saw it fit for that language not to be without.

That pre-processor was a source of untold nightmares. Direct injection leads to bugs. If someone is going that route, full-blown macros are the only answer. There is a full-blown macro system Mozilla created a few years ago, but it's not very popular.

There also exist some C-style pre-processors for babel too, but they should be avoided because lisp's gensym is a critical feature that they and C both lack.
