I think it depends on where you live. If you live in New York, LA, Chicago, Seattle a lot of the big cities have such horrible traffic I can see the want to get rid of your car.

If you live in a place like Austin Texas and work from home, like I do. Having a car is a delight. I can go in any direction and bring my stuff I can get stuff from the store and bring it home. I've lived without a car in New York City, there's a lot of downsides to that. You don't have the freedom to just go to IKEA and get a something.

> then the changes are no longer truly independent.

But the author of the code is telling you that they are independent. The author may be proved wrong if some future change accidentally triggers dependence but we as humans can have knowledge that the compiler can not have. The compiler sees a possibility of conflict and wants to protect you from yourself. That is a usability issue.

In both of these cases "we" is a group of thousands of people with varying opinions. There are absolutely plenty of people who very much believe in defunding the police and ending work. As both movements have grown more popular we've naturally seen more people who agree with the general spirit of the movement but hold more moderate views.

Gadolinium will get you blank stares from a lot of people. Lead is well known. Look at the reception this article, which is basically just a summary of the state of affairs ghost written by an activist organization, got. To get people to care about <insert chemical you've never heard of> you something that's well written, tugs at heartstrings and confirms biases (imagine a New Yorker article about DuPont dumping something in some rural watershed, that's the kind of media you'd need) to get people to engage just as much. Lead has a MASSIVE mind share among the people who like to fancy themselves as caring about these sorts of things. If they have a drug that can treat lead poisoning they can springboard off of that mind-share in order to sell their drug. They'd be stupid not to.

Why does that require a macro?

I prefer seeing code like this rather than wrapping it in abstractions and macros/helpers because it's not particularly verbose and very clear where the borrowing happens ; you'd see the same in C++ or C, to be honest.

The latter statement clearly negates the former. It's fascinating that the irony of those two conflicting statements was completely lost on you.

Further your use of a monolithic "Americans" is almost comical. Honestly it sounds as though maybe you didn't get out of LA very much in your 15 years. And as others have also pointed out LA is not at all representative of the rest of the country.
Well, think of it like this: I worked hard, contributed hard, and chased the American dream. I found it distasteful and repugnant - so I moved.

(And, btw, $2,000,000 is hardly "high-roller" status, spread out in taxes over 15 years... unless of course you're one of those "living under a bridge because medical bankrupcy" Americans, lol..)

It takes about a second on my M1, which puts it below the threshold I have for caring about it. The big question is whether you count things like indexing projects against the editor or the toolchain, since things like firing up linters or the JVM is only partially under their control.
For sure. I'm training to be a MBSR (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction) teacher and one of the things that is being stressed to us is the importance of providing loads of guidance / filtering when getting people to get involved - if there is significant trauma (and a whole bunch of other things including substance abuse, major relationship issues, etc), we are taught to encourage people to seek other forms of help rather than meditative approaches. Going deeper isn't always the right thing - people are very diverse in their needs, and teachers need to be really careful about being clear about this.

I think it's one of the things that is really off-putting to me about the current "trend" in mindfulness - the whole realm is completely un-mediated. Here in the UK literally anyone can set themselves up as a meditation teacher - there is only one body with anything approaching an "official" label and even that isn't required for anyone to practice. So there are always sadly gonna be people who are out there recommending and practicing really terrible stuff without being sensitive to individual needs.

Also: hope you are ok.
Actually, given my first few doses always feel great, it probably isn't nocebo. If anything, perhaps the initial 'good' dose might be placebo (placebic?) in nature.
AMD is increasingly competitive, but still doesn't have good software compatibility outside of gaming. GPUs are not the priority for them. They basically make 10 times less cards and aren't going to make more. Which is sad since we need more competition. Rising TSMC prices aren't as big of a deal for them since they are mostly on samsung right now.

I wouldn't say that things are so bad for Nvidia. They are selling more cards than ever, their "Ultimate Play" to rise the prices across the board will, most likely, be successful in the long run. Sub 200 dollars segment is dead, like sub 100 before it. Since they are going to make monstrous MCM GPUs, the price for an absolute high end is going to rise to unseen heights(performance will rise with them). I hope Intel will stop this madness eventually, but they won't be able to do it fast, even if they try as hard as they can.
A thousand times this! At the very least, I always want to have good mental model of how something probably works or mostly works even if I couldn't reproduce the implementation line-for-line. To me, it can almost be dangerous to have the power to use something without any idea of what's under the hood. You don't know the cost of using it, you don't have a good basis for knowing what the tradeoffs and reasons are for using it over something else, and the concept isn't portable if you need to work in a language or environment that doesn't have it.

If I come across a feature I like in a programming language, I usually find myself trying to figure out how to implement or emulate it in a language I already know (ideally one that won't hide too much from me). Implementing coroutines in C using switch statements, macros, and a little bit of state for example.
The vapor pressure of lead when it melts isn't anything ridiculous, afaik. It shouldn't have released that much lead gas unless you were really burning it. (See leaded solder) Also, liquid elemental mercury isn't as scary as the organic mercury salts or something that's been concentrated though bio-accumulation. People like Cody's Lab on youtube have tasted liquid mercury for fun
Lead is so important in making ceramics, there is nobody proposing to ban it. Instead, the main proposal is to require ceramics to be tested after manufacture to ensure that the dose of lead leached into any given food or drink is sufficiently low.

The main way that is achieved is by firing the ceramics at higher temperatures and longer to ensure the lead is better chemically bound to the rest of the pottery and leaches slower.
The worst part about this in my view is that the fair pushback against this (the vaccine efficiency is low compared to these other vaccines, and the danger to children from COVID is non-existent) will be co-opted against other vaccines that actually matter.

I haven't been there much, but the posts I've personally observed there are mostly LARPing/fantasy stories. They exist to titillate. They are about as real as the stories posted in the erotic subs.

Obviously there's a market for that sort of thing, so I guess that says something. I just wouldn't use people's fantasies to deduce something about their actual behavior - I think almost everyone at one point fantasizes about not needing their job.

It’s actually become somewhat of an issue nowadays. Germany has such low acceptance of any military action that even in a situation like right now, where Ukraine is at risk of being invaded, the vast majority is against any action.

Germany is still doing cleanup of WW2 damages today, everyone has experienced at least one evacuation due to old leftover bombs being found. It’s hard to support war when its damages are still deep in the collective consciousness

Sorry.... I'm not a native speaker. My initial thoughts in the post was about why bother? Vimium and TWM is intended to non-disabled people and I used to use Acceptability to avoid mouse before discovering Vimium. So, it's a fact which Web Acceptability is good to non-disabled, but why push it when Vimium solve it? Anyways, as the first guy replied, although Vimium helps, it lacks.
The web always feels terrible compared to a native app, especially on a phone. Some of the difference is due to Safari being a bad browser (probably intentional), but a bigger part is that the threading model makes it really difficult to have a responsive UI. Not to mention the browser’s gestures often clash with the application’s gestures.
I think getting upset comes from the fact that in addition to some very valid criticism, there is a tremendous amount of invalid criticism thrown towards the US. If Germany or Austria or the Netherlands were constantly being insulted on the world-stage then they would likely grow sensitive to criticism as well, even when it is occasionally valid.

Another reason could be the mindless, abject hatred you seem to have of the country. If you approached your criticisms rationally they likely would be better recieved. Instead it sounds like you're spouting what you've read on woke twitter and have left no room for compromise. Saying "The USA is a shithole" is akin to saying "Europe is a shithole". It's a blanket statement that it not unilaterally true for either. I lived in Europe myself for several years and there were things I both loved and hated. There were nice areas as well as shitty areas. After spending those years in the EU, I've come to prefer the US. You're entitled to your opinion, you're not entitled to generalize an entire country and it's population and then insult someone when they object to those generalizations.
Is this one of the smallest playable DOOM devices?
This is exactly it. The so-called "great resignation" is just pent-up delayed demand for normal job switching that didn't happen during the pandemic.

It's framed this way as click-bait. Of course people click on stories about quitting work because they dream of doing that themselves.
I've lived in the US my whole life, I've been to LA once for a wedding, and I really don't see a single similarity between what's going on in LA and what's going on where I live (Northwest Arkansas).

My air is clean, my commutes are traffic free, the people here generally suck, and I have access to world class... everything, if I want it (well, maybe not transportation, but my car is nice, German even!, and I can get everywhere in it pretty easily). Because I'm wealthy, I can afford all of the things you get for free in Germany without it negatively affecting my way of life, which probably helps substantially, but that's part of America too.

I want to move to Europe from the US, everything you described is amazing, but maybe it's a shithole to you because you've only been to a few places in the US.

Hawaii is in the US. Puerto Rico, Alaska, The Everglades, Sequoia National Park, Glacier National Park, Yellowstone National Park; it's hard to go to those places and walk away thinking they're "shitholes".

The USA is huge. Some of it is a shithole, and where you lived for 15 years is probably closer to shithole than not, but "The USA is a huge shithole" is probably not as true as you're making it out to be here.
I'm arguing that free sharing of information is a good thing. "clickbait" is a phenomenon arising from specific incentives. I am arguing that the internet should be as free as possible, but I also think we should realign incentives so that clickbait is no longer an effective strategy (e.g. website revenue that isn't attention-based, increased public education).

That's a good point. I can see it working with static typing by being more liberal in what you accept as enconding, and accepting a validation function that would take the type of the encoding (for example string) and returning a boolean. But you're right, the type itself of the encoding will have to be wider.
>Charges can only exist on the basis of legal technicality. That’s how law works.

Don't be coy, you know exactly what I mean. If you get away with, for example, sexual crimes like Cosby due to legal technicalities, it doesn't mean you aren't guilty or weren't malicious.

The NYT piece tries to pretend that Chen was not doing anything at all worth scrutinizing. He clearly was, just in a way different than the initial charges cover - mandatory disclosure.

>What you are describing is guilt by association with China

No, what I'm describing is secretive collaboration with an adversarial government on research funded by the US federal government for the express purpose of advancing the interests of that adversarial government, which is exactly what happened.

Based on those numbers you were literally built like a NFL linebacker. If you were to swap out your hypertrophy sets for max-strength instead you'd likely be relatively stronger and could probably cut your per-mile time down to 7 minutes (from 9) as well.

Ignore BMI and use body fat percentage instead. Try to find a four-electrode machine (hands and feet) you can borrow periodically. (My gym has one and charges $20 per use; I would only expect to need to use it 3-4 times per year.)

Are you sure you know what you're talking about?

The body of knowledge in law is vast and some areas can be intellectually stimulating as well (depending on one's interests). "Overworded nonsense" that you usually see (in contracts or legislation, I suppose) happens when less than stellar lawyers are made to write stuff upon a deadline, and is the equivalent of "spaghetti code". Usually, it's fine since nobody (I think) gives you a bonus for succinct writing when drafting a contract. But you might get in trouble for missing some "edge cases". There's also a lot of cargo culting (magic Latin incantations) and building on questionable templates (technical debt). Sometimes people intentionally write in weird illegible ways to impress people (think Perl one liners).

Anyway, when most programmers see an unfamiliar codebase for the first time, they'd probably think most of the code are "overworded nonsense" until they fully understand the "business requirements" and the special cases implemented. (This is where the adage against complete rewrites comes from.) Unless you're really an expert in the area of law, you're probably not qualified to say that some legal texts are overworded nonsense.

But yeah, there's more parallels in law and software engineering than one might think. I'm a software engineer by trade, not a lawyer, but I do have a degree in law, and I often read up on cases or occasionally do my own legal research mostly for fun and personal interest. I would contend your "extremely dull" claim. TBH I might read more legal texts than Other People's Code, the latter which I generally hate doing, and is usually more boring for me (and occasionally infuriating when I know the coders spewing writing crap instead of putting effort in making the stuff succinct and clean).

That said, believe whatever you want.

That’s very interesting. Do French people typically try to set up some care arrangement, or just leave the kids at home?
