The C standard could insist they perform print format validation and thus make it safe for string literals. As you note, popular compilers do this today so it would merely be requiring what is in fact common practice.

As published C++ 20 allows a compiler to swallow this nonsense:

if (untested_condition)
result = std::format("Oops {} {} {} {}", only, three, parameters);

... and spit out a program that will only blow up when untested_condition becomes true in production. Fortunately sanity prevailed as I understand it, and the revised document correctly requires that this is a compile time error.

China doesn't have a centrally planned economy though. It certainly has a lot of state intervention, but resources are primarily allocated through market mechanisms.

Much of its industrial policy actually resembles that of democratic states like Korea and Japan.

I'd argue China's experience presents a great argument for a mixed market economy that allows state intervention, while also recognising the importance of markets and decentralised economic coordination.

However, we shouldn't overhype China's progress. The fact of the matter is that China was always destined to become an economic juggernaut given its population size, stability, and resources.

It's just China had been tied down by Mao and his supporters managed to hijack the government for several decades and hindered China's ascent with their whacky policies. We're now seeing it snap back to where it belongs.
Cape Town South Africa, Coastal Southern California/Mexico, and Pacific Northwest Jun to Sep are as good as it gets in my opinion. Nairobi is up there too, but I have not spent enough time there to know about year round.

Why do I care whose “fault” it is? Did government intervention make my life better or worse?

As Reagan said the most dangerous words in the English language “I’m from the government and I’m here to help”.
This is a hilarious thread. People think that just because they have the HP, that their driveline and tires are capable of safely going above the factory governed speed. People stating that they've gone north of 120 in a lifted full size pickup on presumably public road shouldn't be allowed to drive.
Disclaimer: Choosing to reply here for "reasons" but there's lots of siblings I could've chosen.

Reading comments so far and the article I think we're mixing up many different use cases and choices.

If I set my browser to English, that means I want the interface language to definitely be English. Do no serve me the interface in Japanese just because I'm in Japan. I won't even be able to find the "Change language here" dropdown ...

Now search results are a different thing. If I type something into www.google.com while being on US soil with en-us as my language setting that is in French, isn't it obvious that I might primarily be served French language content and that is what I want too? While the interface of Google is still in English? Or vice versa? If I type an English language query into www.google.fr while fr-fr is my language setting, I expect worldwide results in English, while my interface is still in French. Sure, restaurant name search results I might want sorted differently based on location and that's a good thing overall, but leave my interface language alone!
That doesn't make it well known though
Great Scrabble word :) According to https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/gruntled gruntled is a humorous neologism introduced as a back-construction by P. G. Wodehouse in The Code of the Woosters (1938): He spoke with a certain what-is-it in his voice, and I could see that, if not actually disgruntled, he was far from being gruntled.
This looks like an excellent read and it's going on my list.

Absolutely no doubt remains in my mind that smartphones and social
media are dangerously addictive and have caused widespread changes in
the mental acuity of billions of people. We're in the midst of
something that will take decades to fix, and decades more to unpack
and understand what went wrong.

But what to do about it?

Pablo Escobar, Chapo Guzman and the Taliban have nothing on the scale
and profitability of the new barons. We need a paradigm shift in how
people relate to each other and what we value in life if we are not to
be sucked into abject dependency.
Can't say for them, but for me I have a single playlist 6,994 songs on shuffle. I try to add songs every week, haven't recently as I also should be moving off of Spotify.
I haven't had an issue with server hangs or file formats (not suggesting that those can't exist), but for metadata I'm in the habit of putting all music I buy through MusicBrainz Picard which can automatically fix any errors or missing metadata fields and put them in a neat structure (Artist/Album/Song). Haven't had to manually fix any matches since that.

But yes, if you don't have to do anything to have an enjoyable experience on Spotify, then there's no reason for you to bother with self-hosting.
I would agree with you, if I had any faith left that the west actually cared about the fate of Ukrainian people.

so this is my "worked in aws" informed take, but you absolutely do not force default behavior change on anyone unless it is absolutely necessary, and advertising http/3 isn't necessary.

Every discussion about the benefits of DST vs. ST boils down to: do you want more sunlight in the morning or in the afternoon?

It seems to me that the people who comment about preferring more sunlight in the morning are more likely to say that having school-aged children is the motivating factor for their preference, as they’re worried about their kids getting to school safely.

I wonder if preference in the real world (i.e. not internet discussion) is actually correlated in that way.
I don't see that in the articles you linked. Can you quote the evidence that she equates trans-ness with rape?

I _do_ see something about her questioning whether gender self-identification should affect whether someone is allowed to be tried for rape (since, if I understand correctly from the article you linked, the UK seems to not allow women to be tried for rape). It's difficult to follow to the original quote because some of the linked articles and original sources are paywalled.

6500 different songs by 1650 artists last year for me. I wouldn't say I listen to that much music, but buying individual albums is completely unrealistic. I've bought some, mostly to support artists, but in the future I'd be more inclined to buy merch (which is often unfortunately hard to find.) Similar to Steam, pirating is so much worse that paying a little for quality streaming is acceptable. As for data, I'm practically giving that away with last.fm anyway.

It's a combination of Spotify's fantastic weekly playlists, keeping up with new releases, and exploring new genres.

Not sure if that’s the question you’re asking but, the Atmos mixes are a completely separate deliverable. They need to be the same length as the original stereo master and obviously shouldn’t deviate so much that they sound like a different piece of music, but there’s a lot of scope. Also, the loudness wars are kind of over now that streaming platforms normalize to a loudness target; if your track is super hot it’s just going to get turned down.
Sure, if you want literally everything to be vertically integrated. Either your tax is meaninglessly small, or everything that exists today in a supply chain (e.g. iron ore -> iron pellets -> steel billets -> steel wire -> nails) would have to get conglomerated into a single entity to compete against other companies doing the same.
My 1970-somthing VW Dasher wagon wouldn't go into gear one day. Turned out that the metal lever that the clutch pedal was connected to had developed a fatigue fracture and broken and could no longer disengage the clutch to get it into gear. But it was easily replaced (it was, after all, just a hunk of metal with some holes in it).

Good times.

I assumed that was implicit given the context of the conversation (a comment up the chain discussing their uncle who got higher priority because he continued to make poor lifestyle choices).

There was and is no condescension present. I don't look down on them just like I wouldn't look down on a 90 year old man whose liver is failing from natural causes. Neither would be my first choice for recipients of my liver.
Enjoy blocking the use of Russia's Dollar reserves, enjoy not getting paid. What's not to like?

”Wearing” a gun pretty specifically is used for having it in, or at least with, a holster (I’ve seen it used a lot, and always with that meaning; it is pretty much the combination of wearing the holster and carrying the gun that goes in it; I’ve mostly seen it used of people who do that regularly as part of a job or lifestyle, either speaking about them in general or discussing whether they were or were not doing so at a particular time.) “Carrying” is more general and more often of interest.

> Don't cops ask "Do you have a gun on you" or "Are you carrying?"

In person, I’be most frequently observed the former (fortunately, not much experience), but on TV both cops and crooks tend to use “carrying” with an implied direct object a lot.

> I think most of us would find it weird if a cop asked us "Are you wearing a gun?".

Sure, because that's not what a cop is likely concerned about.
Funny but Azure Repos actually has had this feature for a while. When I first joined Microsoft I was shocked that all our teams used Azure Repos instead of GitHub considering we own GitHub but as I've used Repos more and more I've actually come to like it more than GitHub itself. A lot of the UI is cleaner and more intuitive than GitHub to me now, maybe just from using it a lot.

We live in an age where "fact checkers" twist themselves into pretzels for the following:

A person belongs to a bombing organization.

The person is convicted for the possession of hundreds of pounds of explosives.

The fact-checker's conclusion? It's unclear whether the person should be labeled a terrorist.
The bit about welcoming the patriotism of war reminded me of the 'conspiracy theory' that Putin blew up some of his own people in order to consolidate his power.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_apartment_bombings

Now, some people believe that, some people don't, but since just before he invaded Ukraine he announced that they were one people, he's literally done the same thing again, blowing up "his own people", for his own political games, but openly.

What influences the amplitude of the wavelengths here? I am guessing the magnetic field influences electrons to jump between the various, discrete excited energy levels. Is the quantum interference (I understand from wavelength point of view) — but curious if the scattering of electrons across these excited levels? Asking from amateur physics perspective.
You should read the paper. The conjecture seems to be that arrangements of particles of lower information entropy are more massive than those which do not. Weird? Yes. More weird than the weirdest aspects of quantum mechanics? Not in my opinion.
Agreed on type 1 tape. I have many that sound great, it actually works really well for bass heavy music like hip hop.

I'll admit Spotify (and other platforms in a smaller degree) aren't ideal and operate in an ethical gray spot the size of the moon, but the convenience is so hard to beat, it would literally take hours every week to make my music listening experience anywhere near enjoyable.

On the other hand I buy merch and go to concerts as much as I can, but at this point I could actually ditch Spotify and Deezer only if they confess to killing puppies, the difference is that big.
At least they left. We are still occupying germany, korea, japan, etc. Even worse, we are looking to expand into poland, lithuania, etc.

Yeah.. i have being using DDG primary for several years and recently the search results have dropped in quality in my opnion.

In my phone i always had a bunch of unrelated russian sites in the results even with region filter enabled (i am on Brasil)..

clearing the cache did show a improvement but i wonder if it might be consequence of those tweaks..

hope they sort things all soon i have being using the google bang so frequently lately that i might just search for an alternative.

Most apps can use a single-instance relational database or document store. Fast enough with plenty of features. When requirements increase, there are many distributed relational and document stores that provide more scalability and performance.

Key/value stores offer a low-level API to handle extreme requirements when nothing else works. An example is adtech platforms where user profiles and contextual data need to be accessed in a fraction of a second to respond to an ad request, often hitting queries-per-second in the 6/7 figure range. Another example is CDNs that need to lookup a specific piece of data across a large dataset very quickly.

As of 2022, there are plenty of key/value stores like Redis, HBase/Bigtable, Aerospike, ScyllaDB that have various trade-offs in speed, scale and flexibility. What sets FDB apart is strong consistency (supporting transactions across multiple keys) and extreme reliability which makes it a good choice as a core metadata and coordination service that other complex apps and distributed systems can rely on.

For example, Apple uses it as a backend for CloudKit, and Snowflake uses it to store the metadata and operations of its cloud data warehouse.

Here's a video playlist from several other companies talking about it at FoundationDB Summit: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbzoR-pLrL6oWYrC950yA...

>Russian friendly views such as Mearsheimer

I don't know that I would refer to Professor Mearsheimer's view as pro-Russian, he has plenty of criticism of Putin and the Russian political system in general. But the fact that he has been railing on the likely consequences of our approach for dealing with the Russia/Ukraine situation for years, and been proved right, should make his writing and interviews required for anybody seeking to better understand who we got here.
This seems to just focus on the cons of patents as a moat. And a patent is less protection for a startup than I would like. But they leaned hard into the worthlessness of them. I feel like I hear about the abuses of patents so you should abolish the system, and the uselessness of patents.

It seems to me like if I have a patent, than at the worst I should be able to sell it to a well funded company if I lose and there are two or three well funded competitors. Possibly even via a merger/acquisition.
to the folks asking why you'd use FDB, i'd highlight the main points as:

> Interactive linearizable transactions (highest consistency level possible) over arbitrary key ranges (none of this single partition transactions nonsense) with a guarantee that FDB will basically never violate this property.

the transaction guarantees on FDB are just the best there is in any product you can get for free. not to fault the rest, FDB just went past what ~98% of folks will ever need. but if you're in that last 2%, god speed trying to get anything else to offer you the same semantics.

> A strongly consistent store you can actually use in anger and that you don't have to baby.

i've seen some folks trying to run a cluster without proper monitoring, who were nearly driving the poor thing into the ground, with hosts dying, and having so much pressure put on them they failed out, but it never lost anything. i don't think it ever even became unavailable.

> Automatic range partitioning. So unlike Cassandra you don't have to pick a static partitioning key yourself, FDB just automatically detects and split ranges for you based on storage volume and write throughput

eh, in defense of everything else, FDB is a key value store, and the keys are byte strings, so the situation is a bit easier for them.

"Unscathed" is a questionable term here.
