That reminds me (tangentially) of this piece I read a while back: https://jsomers.net/i-should-have-loved-biology/

I felt mostly neutral about biology back in high school (mostly due to the fact that I didn't find it that much to remember, so it was hardly a struggle, but the teaching was less than awe-inspiring to be diplomatic). When I read the piece above, I mostly thought it was well written and matched how school had killed a lot of curiosity for me about many a topic.

Then I recently started reading up on molecular biology basics after stumbling across a bunch of youtube videos, and I have to say I don't think I've ever been this thoroughly, viscerally fascinated by anything I've learned about. Much of what I'd read or studied so far was either "here's a neat model that explains a lot of things concisely", or "here's a way practical problems like x, y, and z can be solved". With the foundational mechanisms of biology, on the other hand, it was like suddenly opening my eyes to incredible levels of complexity all around and inside me I had completely neglected before.
Good point yeah, I think the switch from indefinite to definite article also makes it feel less dissociated/bleak too somehow
This issue seems like it would be common across languages, or at least those languages that have filesystem APIs in the stdlib. My understanding is that it is fixed in Python 3.3, while in C++ concurrent file system access is considered UB and therefore this isn’t a bug.

Do people know the state in other languages?
1. That 55% doesn't go in the trash bin, it goes to pay the schools your children will attend, the hospitals your family might need, the streets you use to commute etc.

2. It's insane for individuals to give up equity just to avoid 55% taxes. They are doing themselves out of 45% rather than winning 90%.
Didn't Pfizer develop a pill delivered treatment for early infections, currently in trials?

What does "highly effected" mean anyway? The one you linked might be enough to warrant future study, but given the numbers used it's not really statistically significant. I mean, especially when vaccinated, most people will be fine after two weeks at the latest.

Without concurrency you don't have to have UB to have user-defined pointers. x86 assembly language has no UB and has user-defined pointers.
I think I already made it clear in another thread why I'm not going to interact with your comments in particular. There's no need to try and post variations of the same comment throughout the tree.

A plot of land to 'get away to' is a great thing to have if you are getting away to it frequently enough to stop it from turning into a jungle. Abandoned land turns into proto forest with amazing speed, and any dwelling on there will be eaten up in record time. If you are serious about this please budget for a local caretaker.
Is caffeine also at the top of the funnel? How about melatonin?

The fact that most heroin users have used caffeine previously does not mean that caffeine is a gateway drug to heroin, or at all correlated with hard drug use. The same applies to cannabis.

I'm not an expert in orbital dynamics, but (logically) if the point of impact is low enough that it's within a high-drag area of space, then any orbits generated by the impact must have that point as part of their orbits, therefore all pieces after the collision should decay eventually as well.
Yep, that's because of Fitts’ Law: the time we need to click a button is a function of the distance between the pointer and the button, divided by the area of the button.

When the button is in a corner the size is virtually infinite (we can move the mouse all we want in one direction and we'd still be over the button)

C89 is mostly a superset of K&R C. So if you can write an OS in K&R you can write it is C89.

The issue was, do modern operating systems require newer versions of the C standard? Or can you write everything in C89.
No, even for personal use you have to pay now. I'm one of the people with a legacy GApps/GSuite account and I got the notice as well. While they initially said that GApps was a good usecase for families it seems they changed their minds about that a long time back and now they just assume everyone on GApps is using it commercially, there is no "personal" tier.

It is interesting to think about the various ways tips are used:

1. User feedback: customer quality perception

2. Variable pricing: if customer can pay more, they do; customers without as much are not turned away

3. Untaxed earnings: tax authorities set a theoretical floor, but undocumented cash is difficult to substantiate

Are there others?

Fair point. I honestly do not experience any noticeable latency after startup, but that is probably because my dev machine is so powerful (12 core intel core i7-8700 3.2GHz, 64GB RAM). Coincidentally I do have it associated with txt files, and as I said before I can’t complain, it works marvelously.

To be honest, I’m general I’m with the native app crowd whenever we discuss pretty much any other Electron app, but VSCode is an exception to me.

Some luck, but you can also lock in odd numbers before proceeding to add evens. And it obviously can't end in an even.
It's not accepted at face value; a published study does not mean that. It's a data point. 'We' / the scientific community needs additional and bigger data points to draw any conclusions.

Most scientific studies like this are springboards for follow-up studies. Don't let the media tell you that a scientific study in isolation is Definite Proof for anything, or that science is that absolute.

Nobody's starting Facebook groups or 'meta analysis' websites with unknown owners to push weed as a corona treatment - unlike ivermectin. There was a group behind pushing that one, I don't know who or why, but there was.
Oh wow. I also used to be in the committee for the National Biology Competition in my country. And yes, it's very hard to make a high quality question, so sometimes we reuse or reskin old problems. A student who has access to past exams archive have significant advantage.

I don't understand why they lock it for international though. AFAIK each year they require every country to provide a couple of questions, and then they will compile it for the exam. Not sure whether they are still doing this.

Wow. I grew up just north of there. An Intel factory would be good news for anyone in the rust belt.
I don't think making it defined would help much. Overflowing a signed integer is a bug in logic. It would be ideal to have a crash on that. Continuing is going to be bad one way or another unless you luck out with your buggy code so the way the implementation works saves you. It can't be relied upon in general case though.

Imo the way is to develop more tools that detect (either by analysis or at runtime) those bugs and run the code with those attached as often as you can afford it (to take the performance penalty).

Welcome to the terrible world of tipping. Subsidize the wages so the employer doesn't have to. I got out of my way to avoid any type of business or service that has tipping. It's getting so bad out there I've seen people talk about getting asked for a tip in a drive thru. Do I tip when I eat out? Yes. But that's cut down to a minimum now. I think we're headed towards a breaking point. Profits and cost of living cannot continue to skyrocket while pay stagnates.
>For software the initial costs are big, but after that it can be pretty low maintenance or at least costing much less to develop new features when the foundation is set.

No, they don't. If their tips don't put them over minimum wage their employer is required to make up the difference. They usually make well over minimum wage factoring in "tax free" cash tips.
I think the point is that when trying not to help the less fortunate, if we resort only to emotion without reason, we just ending up hurting them. Which can certainly be seen in plenty of situations today, IMO.

StackOverflow privately announced this shutdown to clients in the summer of 2021 with the same date and I tweeted about it in November when the deadline of sunsetting was getting close enough [1].

Every hiring manager I talked with shared how SO Jobs was the best place to reach developers. I reached out to a few people at StackOverflow to get a sense of why they are shutting down this product that did very well.

I didn't get real answers beyond "we don't think job boards are the future" which I don't fully buy, given the success on both the employer, and the candidate side. What might be the case is the growth in profit was not what Stack Overflow hoped for, and this is why they are retiring these parts.

My suspicion is that Stack Overflow expects to make 10x more revenue with enterprise branding services (effectively not allowing just job posting, but you need to buy a large package that has other things bundled that you need to get if you want to access something like this job board).

Note that with this change Stack Overflow effectively locks out all small and medium-sized businesses from working with them. Starting from the middle of 2021, I heard they were not onboarding companies with less than 1,000ish employees to the job board either.

It makes perfect financial sense for Stack Overflow, if they are indeed making the change to maximise revenue collected from employers. However, there will be a large gap on the market for startups, small and mid-size companies who will not qualify - and will not have the budget - for the "employee branding services" SO will keep providing (but does not share details on).

Except with financing you own the product and one day the payments end. You're saying that home ownership is the same as renting if you don't buy upfront? That's simply not true.

Also, the vast majority of people would prefer to live in a home they own than burn money renting.
What's sort of funny is the concern about tipped workers is also classist. Tipped workers in restaurants do pretty well, at least in contrast to their hourly counterparts in the back of the house. College educated people often take front of house jobs during college so they empathize with the front of house workers, but the front of house makes considerably more than the back and has far better working conditions. Stand in a 100+ degree kitchen for 12 hours, burning and cutting yourself daily and tell me that the waitstaff have it bad with a straight face, especially after you learn they are taking home twice what you are and that's before factoring in the rampant wage theft in the restaurant industry.

If you had a really good experience and you want to show your appreciation, go in back and tip the cooks.

Nuclear power is only 16% of generation capacity. Hydro is larger at 18%. Next up are biofuels 15%, wind 14% and natural gas at 10%.

Our newest nuclear power plant won’t be in production until summer, but once that comes online the nuclear share will go up.

Imports are mainly Russian nuclear and Scandinavian hydro.

Hydro and nuclear definitely help, as well as the low dependency on fossil fuels.

I'm afraid the author as usual confuses the cases when UB produces strange results and when the compiler actively and deliberately exacerbates the results. He also claims gcc interpretation of UB provides a lot of performance. Ironically gcc or clang already do experiments on different interpretation of UB like signed integer overflow and implicit initialization.
Am I reading the author right that he’s expecting people to tip on the movie ticket portion of their check?

If so, I’m not at all surprised to he ended up disappointed when people didn’t do that. It would never occur to me to do that, before or after reading the article.

Totally agree. However, I highly doubt such a study will be possible for the same reasons we still argue about salt and sugar: what's the control?

Unless we're able to find twins that live largely the same lives absent the one factor, we are really only capable of sussing out the especially harmful things with long term lifestyle studies. If cannabis is as bad as sugar, then we have 40 years of back and forth to look forward to, and the answer will ultimately be: A little bit is bad, but not bad enough to matter more than how many steps you took today, or how sad or angry you were, or how late you ate dinner.

I'd like to add that the fact that you're supposed to use only one DEFSYSTEM form per ASD file wasn't very advertised, at least back when I wrote my first ASDF systems (back when ASDF2 was still in the future) and since then one rarely delved again into full rereading of the manual.

It is belittling, and almost nobody except restaurant owners likes it. It's sort of a game theory problem - if we could coordinate everyone to stop tipping, then restaurants would be forced to pay their workers normal wages, and almost everyone would be better off. But if I stop tipping, I'm just an asshole making no impact on society.

I guess the only practical approach is to simultaneously keep tipping and push for your city/state/country to eliminate the tipped minimum wage loophole.
It would be except that you're tearing a cookie-side off each Oreo and smashing them together for double-double stuffing (you did buy double-stuffed, right?) pre-milk, and saving the scrap sides to have with homemade dunkaroo dip later. So it's only half as many cookies as it looks like.

Unity is not a free standard with multiple implementations. Unity doesn't support a plurality of programming languages, while it's the goal of the garbage collected WASM.

I used to believe all the propaganda about marijuana being harmless, but now it's obvious to me that mind-altering drugs are bad for you (duh). I think we'll keep seeing more stories like this.
I find myself in a similar boat. Have you decided on an alternative? I'm not likely to start paying for Google Workplace but am happy to pay for another service. Thankfully my needs are pretty simple, I only ever used GSuite for my own domains and they only have one user account each.
I think the general problem is that if so much is going to hinge on this, it should be much easier to tell whether or not you know what you're doing. Undefined behavior really wouldn't be a problem if you could spot it reliably (possibly using tools, like the compiler toolchain itself).

This loose mapping between four optimization levels and a variety of obscure language situations is invisible and situated only in a handful of top engineers' memories. That's not a great way to run a language if you actually care about the correctness of programs written in that language.
