As several comments here have stated, it's unlikely that the 737 Max without MCAS would be a certifiable airplane. In a way MCAS makes the Max fly more like the NG but only in the sense that it makes the Max fly more like any other certifiable airframe.

There are plenty of aircraft with common type ratings which are more different than the Max and the NG. As an example the 757 and the 767 share a common type rating.
It appears helloworld is the only test with any repeats, and it only has 5 repeats. https://github.com/hanabi1224/Programming-Language-Benchmark... (Also, you can't average out the VM scheduling something else during the test, if it is constantly scheduling other stuff as it is a very busy build machine.)

Here's the measurement code, it appears to be significantly more complicated than a simple fork/exec/wait loop but that could just be all the C# getting in the way: https://github.com/hanabi1224/Programming-Language-Benchmark... Note that we are definitely measuring the C# async runtime to some degree. Nevertheless you are probably right that the bulk of this 1.8ms is in the executable under test, and it truly is just bloat. Running `hyperfine ./empty-main-function` from rustc on my Mac gives 0.8ms.

Honestly it didnt just take over the sub it ruined the whole sub and community. Im not going to say WSB was civilized pre-pandemic but it was much smaller with a range of interesting takes on things plus funny memes. And also degenerate gamblers who at least knew what they were fucking with.

The quality of poster is much much worse now.
The truth is that a particular person with a particular skillset and culture may have vastly different values to different companies in different parts of the world. The same combination of skills may be a valuable asset in one workplace and less valuable in another. It takes a bit of social aptitude and common sense to approach the right companies and to accentuate at the relevant subset of your skills.
Fragments still sucks. Libadwaita promised us better user interfaces and all we got were lousy rounded corners and insane amounts of GUI breakage on other platforms. At this point it takes ludicrous amounts of good faith to assume that GNOME isn't throwing other Linux developers under the bus.
I don't understand, didn't GoFundMe take money but refused a service that was paid for? If they decided to ban that particular campaign, they should return money to the donors not donate it to some other cause, no?

I am not super knowledgeable about the situation, apologies if I misrepresented something.
Thank you for these. I've been subscribed to Julia's blog for many years. Excellent resource.
The IO is setup and isn’t inside the benchmarked region.
Every couple of weeks these come up. I am glad they do and eat them all up. :)

Maybe the market research from posts like these are anecdotal, but it still screams that there is a market for old ThinkPad-style designs. Is this request too niche? I am not sure, but I would love to think that manufacturers should just see from these that good, old designs work well for people and people will want to buy those designs. I would and I would be excited over that.
To make matters worse, the Dutch translation of the mandated text has awkward style. It feels grammatically incorrect to me although I can't pin-point why.

I'm probably in the minority here but I'm at a point where I'll simply not purchase any service if I cannot use the in app form of payment. I'm just done with everything else. If I miss out on something then so be it.

Have you ever bought an Adobe subscription, ever tried to cancel a New York Times subscription? Or Audible where they say "Well, you can cancel but then we'll also take the tokens you've already paid for"? It's completely ridiculous.

I'm so sick of 14,000 variations on cancelling things, having to click through menus, five hundred different things I have to take care of and all that crap. On iOS I can cancel anything and everything - without exception - the same way and in a few clicks. I like that and it's just something I got used to.
> It does not do that either.

It clearly does. There's a world of difference between running tor/finding onion links, and googling "cheats for battlefield 2042". There are multiple stories out there of games destroyed by cheaters who add in Anti-cheat after the fact and the problem practically disappears. Note that doesn't mean no cheaters, but for games like Fall Guys (post linked above) it was practically every game was won by a cheater literally `noclip`'ing to the finish line.

> Whoever wants a cheat eventually finds the best cheat authors who are quiet and are not drawing attention to themselves but have public Web 2.0 sites where they sell their software.

While those cheats will continue to exist, most people aren't going to go to the trouble of installing Tor, finding an unlisted website and buying via bank transfer, they're going to google "Cheats for <Insert game name here>" and if the first link lets them spend $40 they will. _Those_ cheats are what utterly destroy games.

> And everybody else loses, including the companies because if Valve wants to install a kernel rootkit on my Linux machine they'll lose my business there

Honestly, the number of people who care enough to not install the kernel level anticheat is so small for modern games it doesn't really matter. I'd put $20 that there are cheaters out there that would install linux to avoid the kernel level anticheat than there are legit players who are ok with running closed source games, but not closed source kernel modules.
Hrrrm, so that comment was badly formatted for some reason, I think I should have put a blank line between the two cases in the second paragraph which should have been a two item list :/
Glad to get this advice. My parents sent me all my old LEGOs a while ago and I’m still in the process of disassembling all the sets, though at least organized into plates, bricks, etc.

Fortunately I know they’re not truly dirty, though they’re still pretty dusty so a good wash will help.
It’s the exact opposite for me. I don’t care what payment processor I use but I 100% want the ability to cancel any subscriptions with a single click from the control panel.
What AAA games use Python?

I'm actually very interested in your dev setup. Do your devs use Linux machines? What IDE?
Nah, Apple would never pull out of a country. If it does that in Netherlands, the next country is going to do the same..
I doubt that there's anything a kernel-level anti cheat will catch that a normal won't (if we're not talking about very sophisticated cheats we see in pro competitions of course). I'd happy to be proven wrong but those companies don't even release statistics on the efficiency.
> so I nabbed 2 margaritas off the drink mat and left a $20.

Stealing two drinks because you couldn't get your way doesn't really strike me as acceptable behavior in any way. Just because you left a 20 doesn't make it any better.
It already is thousands but the games just need to go through Valve hardware vetting. AppDB (WINE) and ProtonDB will give a better picture at what’s possible.

its worth noting valves monumental effort was largely inspired by the release of the Microsoft store, which at the time (had it succeeded) would have had a significant impact on Valve. Valves support for Linux was a massive strategic success that almost certainly led Redmond to focus more attention on the cloud presence that runs online games and publishing services, instead of directly trying to EEE the playing field.
>it was less of a games store and more of a gaming merchandise store. Their acquisition of ThinkGeek and subsequent selling of those products in stores is satisfying a niche that nobody else (apart from maybe the mom & pop comic book store) seems interested in.

Maybe it's just my personal preferences, but I can't imagine myself or anyone I know buying enough "gaming merchandise" in significant numbers. If I need a game, it's either digital, or physical through amazon with same day delivery. It's the same with other gaming-related merchandise. I go for whatever's cheaper/on sale, which is usually bestbuy or amazon.
Pssh, that's when you just rig up a hyper-realistic android.
I mean, that isn't really new either. I had the first generation Lego Mindstorms set (pre-NXT, with the old yellow control brick), which required a USB device and special software to edit programs on the control brick. After ditching Windows XP for Windows 7, I could never get the USB device, or the required software, to function properly. The software and drivers just weren't maintained and updated, and I could never figure out how to fix that.
Hi hackers. I'm making [Podrest](https://www.getpodrest.com), which converts a web page into a podcast using text-to-speech technology. A key feature of this productivity tool is that it generates a URL that you can use via your favorite podcast app to access and listen to the audio. If you are a writer, you can use Podrest to easily convert and distribute your writings as a podcast. Today, I want to show you episodes made from Paul Graham's essays. I'm happy to hear feedback from you in the comments below.
> It's not reasonable to add ALL Javascript/CSS directly into the index.php file. PHP is only 10% of the codebase, and it would bloat the file to insane dimensions and make it difficult to maintain.

I guess no one says that's the way you want to maintain the project. The final `index.php` with HTML/CSS/JS can just be built out of parts that can be maintained separately.
>> The purpose of stock markets is to find the "correct" price for a stock.

Is it? Who's purpose?

The main purpose of an IPO is (was?) financing. IE, raising money for the company operations... like a bank loan, VC investment, etc. In practice, many of today's IPOs are companies that don't need to raise money (anymore). For those companies, their main purpose when doing an IPO is usually liquidity. IE, letting founders, investors and such cash their shares... or continue owning them with the added benefit of market prices to validate the value of their wealth.

Your argument is quite mainstream, but I can't see how anyone would make it except to justify short selling. It seems to me there's a lot of "you sure about that?" in the whole thing.

Are you sure "finding the correct price" is an actual need? Who needs this, and why? Are you sure short selling makes for better prices?

Liquidity is a similar argument made in favour of derivative HFT and such. I also think its (probably/usually) quite bogus. Do stock markets even have liquidity problems? Stocks are insanely liquid. That's what they're for.

It's not a 3 man company, you know. If they are interviewed and hired as Frontend (React) Developer in organization of that scale, they might expect to actually do what they are qualified to do.
Pretty much, interviewer clicked more with other candidates I guess. That does sound extremely frustrating to go through the whole ordeal just to have some guy weed you out because you don't look or speak like he expects.

Behind them in the photo, they have indigenous "Land Back" signs, whose message, logically, is that non-"indigenous" people (so like, immigrants), should have their land seized (and be expelled from the Americas? Roll back to 1400?). This just seems like another stupidly controversial position to attach yourself to.

Now, practically where I see these "Land Back" signs is at environmental protests opposing e.g. pipelines and mines, all of which may be well and good.

The environmentalists that protest alongside these signs don't really take them seriously (like, they don't expect to forfeit their houses). But if you don't mean something, why say it?

Maybe I'm too hard on these movements. If they hold out the opportunity of "going Native" for everyone else, then maybe they're ok. I'll acknowledge here that that would be an explicitly assimilationist goal, which "we" aren't supposed to like, but I could actually be ok with that. The key thing is universalism.
The lack of brightness is a problem for me personally. I had a G15 Zephyrus for a bit, and its screen was great (1440p 144hz IPS) except its brightness was low, which made it less than pleasant to use in a well-naturally-lit room even with the light being indirect. I ended up returning that laptop for other reasons (mainly, finicky GPU driver behavior and its nosiness compared to a desktop), but its screen’s brightness didn’t help matters.

My X1 Nano and M1 Pro MBP are vastly better in those departments, hitting 450 and 500 nits brightness (with the larger going all the way to 1600nits for HDR content) which is usable in a much better range of environments. You’d have to be sitting in direct noon sunlight to really have a problem.

I wish the minimum bar for screen brightness would increase, 200-300 nits really just doesn’t cut it with fewer of us working in artificially lit offices with almost no sunlight.
I must be misunderstanding this. Since Apple doesn't support sideloading, how is any product offered both on the App Store and somewhere else, let alone for a different price?
As someone who wants to learn it and has never used the .NET ecosystem, do I need to become familiar with the standard library and packages through C# first or is it okay if I dive directly into F#?
> I feel like I haven't achieved much,

Sounds like you've focused entirely on your career (and achieved plenty there). Those savings give you freedom to try other things. Make a change, get a hobby, dive into that.

You're still young. There's tons of things you can do.

Hold in there. Don't make any rash decisions. Give yourself some time to adapt to the pretty significant change in circumstances you have there.

You certainly can't walk two paths at once ... who can? You might be at a fork in the road or you might just be so tired you are seeing double.

Stop at a rest stop for a while.

Look after your little one, take it easy when you can, and be kind to yourself. All sorts of medical help is available.

Perhaps, but the point was that they do this even when it's not about taking a cut.

FWIW, I haven't seen this issue at all on M1 Macbooks. Used to happen once on a month on my Intels.
I also have applications in the AppStore (x2). I knew what I was getting into when I built them. Apple are very clear about their pricing and value. If I had to drop either my iOS or Android apps then I would drop the Android apps in a heartbeat, supporting them is a headache.
This is wrong. Of course Shakespeare had a formal education.

"If William Shakespere had the grammar school training of his day - or its equivalent - he had as good a formal literary training as had any of his contemporaries. At least, no miracles are required to account for such knowledge and techniques from the classics as he exhibits. Stratford grammar school will furnish all that is required."

You could have just opened a history book book to find this out. One of those skills you learn in a bureaucratic factory farm.
It could, but in my experience (using it for 7 years now), it's rarely a problem in the Rust/Cargo ecosystem. That's because in Cargo this doesn't mean the exact version, but only a minimum version (like "^1.2.7" in npm). Different versions will be unified automatically (or even whole dependencies duplicated if they differ by semver-major).

You can get a conflict only if someone very specifically required an incompatible lower version, like "<1.2.17" or "=1.2.16", and only if the crate with that requirement could not be avoided by choosing different versions of dependencies. In practice such locked version ranges are used rarely and temporarily, because they are known to be disruptive.
Replacing execs won’t solve this. Even if you put someone in place that isn’t an asshole, they’re still accountable to Apple shareholders and need to act in the interests of the company. If they don’t, they’ll just be fired (or maybe even sued for violating their fiduciary duties or something like that)

Stuff like this is in the interests of the company. The only way to prevent it is for regulators to make it no longer in their best interests.
In fact, it was never really associated with gaming. It's arguably the most quintessential Linux joke since, I don't know, at least the early 2000s

Actually capacity is designed to meet the highest demand and scale down for slow times. My company has seen lines go from 100% capacity and turning away customers one year to 20% capacity filling all orders. It is murder on our suppliers and so the most important question we ask when sourcing a new part is can the supplier keep their doors open if we make no orders for two years, yet still meet our peek demand? The reality of the business cycle is on everyone, though some see it worse than others.

The site is build on AWS serverless tech (one of the reasons I started it was to play around with this a bit more). So, emails are sent via SES.
Except they cannot. If you have an EU point of sale, you cannot deny service to any EU citizen based on nationality.

So, they can stop _selling_ in the Netherlands, but given how close is any Dutch to another EU state, I don't see it as a problem for purchasing a phone.

Apple will sustain that, given the phone wasn't bought in the Netherlands, they are not subject to their laws. Good luck with that.

Some years ago I was appending underscores to key strings to avoid that. We're talking PHP 5 era. But even at that time stdClass was available. Today, I much prefer either using a stdClass object or actually making a real class when I reach for an associative array. They still have their use cases, though.
Proton is absolutely amazing. I've started buying a few more indy titles to play a little bit, and they tend to "just work" most of the time now (which definitely didn't used to be the case).

Even with a somewhat unusual system, and running wayland, the experience is fantastic. (NOTE: I also don't tend to buy triple A games on my computer, so that could obviously be an issue).
Some of the major criticisms most frequently leveled at PHP relate it's convoluted history, the random ad hoc nature of their built-in functions, the inability to enforce types, overly flexible/dynamic, etc all of which can contribute to, among other things, disorganized code.

But then when PHP does something positive to clean things up, we get threads like this. You're damned if you do and damned if you don't.

FWIW, how PHP handled `count` was very well done IMHO. The evolution from having `count` throw a warning on non-countable objects to having `count` throw a TypeError has occurred over several years! No one should have been caught off-guard by this very gradual change.
Interesting. Having read the article I noted some of the talking points I regularly hear on Sirius Patriot channel ( and I assume used in other right wing media ) including Che ridicule. It is pretty effective in that regard.

I personally saw r/antiwork as another incarnation of OWS. Only difference is that it was online ( so perception only ) and antiwork was very effectively destroyed via character assassination. I am sure it will be studied in terms of PR engagement and social manipulation.
