That's why KLM fitted its polar-route aircraft with "Polar survival kits", including rifles to shoot polar bears if needed (for defence or calories, it's not clear): https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-arvz6OHAQO0/UHxrLfdrLII/AAAAAAAAC...

They're a good tool for sure, but I take issue with your characterization. It's not "laziness" or "lack of understanding" that makes them ill-suited for python, but just that they're too expressive for the goals python seeks to fulfill.

I suspect that people's aversion to manual memory management is more an expression of that semantic mismatch rather than some kind of reveling in their own stupidity.

Paid subscription-based NPM ? Yes, you could download a dependency directly from the repository on Github for free, but if do so through the paid NPM they assure you that the package is malware-free.
I think this is a real fundamental problem and something that seems to easy to fix. People just don't know how the other half live. There's a persistent belief that rich people and poor people are like two different species. I got a CS degree from a pretty good school but it was almost pure luck. My high school had programming classes and I enjoyed them. I didn't realize what I was setting myself up for.
It could be that Google says they're infringing on the logo design, and Google demanded that they stop distributing the app due to this.

"We were also asked to remove all links for the distribution of any vanced apps that led to the decision of discontinuation."

Whatever the second half of that sentence may mean in plain English, the whole article is hard to parse.
Perhaps this was a Quash-then-Hire and while Vanced is gone the developers are now Googlers with some NDA agreement...
A joke that somehow a lot of people seem to fall for? And you take their actual money rather than, at the latest after payment, revealing it was just a joke and refunding the money?
This is fantastic. Really love your calm, investigative tone. Look forward to part two.
You seem to ignore that the incredibly annoying ads are a prime reason people even buy premium in the first place.
Researchers hack a pacemaker, kill a simulated human (2015)
If you have more details I'd certainly appreciate it. We're running a now 25 yr old whole house forced air system - 4 ton. Fuzzy memory but as I recall it probably has a CoP of around 16 with defrost cycles when the temp goes below +5C. It has been mostly maintenance free for those 25 years excepting on time when it started icing up - needed a recharge of refrigerant as it seemed to be a bit low - tech figured a slow leak somewhere but never found it.

The system works fine and my best guess is that it is somewhere around 3:1 in favour of heat pump over resistive heat (electric baseboard or radiant panels).
People committing suicide rather than quitting and doing something else (declaring bankruptcy if necessary) means it's not just a supply and demand thing.

It's also important to distinguish between farm workers (hired hands) and the business owners.
I was part of the MAE engineering team from 1992-94.

The original plan was to machine-translate the Mac ROM from 68K machine code to SPARC/PA-RISC/POWER machine code. It would have brought MAE much closer to RISC-like speeds. Unfortunately, there's a lot of dirty assembler in the Mac ROMs, and the decoding project faltered. So about 3/4 of the way through the project, we scrapped the binary translation and ran the whole ROM in the 68K emulator. It started working quickly, but it was slower by a factor of several.

We had a binary translation app, basically a compiler that took 68K machine code as the source language, written by a 3rd party company whose name I forgot. They were east coast, possibly Research Triangle, and might have had defense contracting ties.

I personally identified about 20 Duff's Devices in QuickDraw inner loops and recoded them as not-Duff's-Devices so the binary translator could grok them. (Sorry, can't remember exactly how I de-optimized them. My/our assumption was that the RISC processors were so much faster than the 68030 of the Mac IIci we were porting that optimization wasn't a big deal.)

We (largely me) developed a huge list of hints for the translator, hundreds of instances of "The code at address X looks like it does this, but it really does that." or "Address Y is an entry point. Start translating here." or the converse, "Address Z is data. Don't mess with it."

It was an insane engineering effort, and I'm still disappointed it never shipped. It was happening at the same time other parts of Apple were developing the first generation PowerPC Macs. They were going through equally insane gymnastics getting 68K and PowerPC to coexist in the same address space, with calls in both directions.

Unfortunately, it's been nearly 30 years, and I just can't remember very many details any more.
The Texas approach is quite different -- it encourages people to sue other people with completely artificial standing. In fact the Texas approach was designed to be entirely different from a government run bounty program in an attempt to undermine the constitution.

This is more similar to whistleblower laws that pay a bounty for taxes recovered by the IRS. In both cases the government is the one taking the action that fines the perp.

In any case, pollution is my business.
The goals of intersectionality, as well as all leftism, is to reduce oppression. In the case of intersectionality, the ideal case would be that people are no longer oppressed due to being in these categories. That's not leveraging categories to achieve a goal, it's describing how society keeps people down for often fairly arbitrary reasons.

How is the idea of getting rid of class distinction "obsessive generalisation"? Also, the idea of getting rid of class is an explicitly economic issue.

True, if it's idling, but many (most? all new?) ICEs now automatically stop when the car stops.
> We really need them if we want to farm in sustainable and moral ways

How so? Sustainable farming has nothing to do with a man vs machine doing the labor. Moral as in we need to make sure people can keep doing this job or what kind of argument are you even making? I'd rather see improved social safety nets and job training then some appeal to history that people need to work the fields because we've always done that.
My impression is that they aren’t legally allowed to reuse any of the source code that was ever used in vanced.

But if they create a new thing as a new team and claim that it shares nothing with vanced; and, critically, they never release the source code from the original vanced (which presumably hasn’t been subpoenaed); then they can reuse the source code, because nobody will know the difference.

This, presumably, would be what they mean by “complications” if they release Vance’s code: it’ll retroactively prove that their new """unrelated""" project is actually related after all.
I'm not a lawyer either, but: I'd worry that something Vanced was doing was technically in violation of DMCA, or at least could be argued to be in violation by someone with several billion dollars.
N.B., I didn't learn the term, "Duff's Device" until several years later.
>Aside from this, there is a big difference: would you trust a doctor to cure you without a medical degree? There is your answer.

It depends.

I had a recurring issue with pain and numbness in my elbow for a few years. I went to all sorts of well credentialed doctors, and every diagnosis they gave ended up being wrong. The person who cracked the case ended up being a random doctor at a hole in the wall clinic that had been the first person available to get an ear infection checked out. I mentioned my symptoms offhand while we were chatting, and he cracked it in about 3 minutes - nerve damage from leaning my elbow on my standing desk. He had a lot of practical experience with occupational related injuries, including nerve damage from poor fitting safety gear, etc. It wasn't his degree that let him find the root cause of my issue, but practical experience.

On the other hand, there's lots of diseases where doctors need to keep up on the latest advancements in research, etc. I don't really know how this works - is it trade journals? Do all doctors in fields like this regularly read them, or papers on NCBI? Does a college degree help here? I don't know. I also don't know if I fundamentally disbelieve that someone couldn't be just as effective in these areas through a more practical learning approach than a college degree, either. But I'm not sure that I believe it, either.

Medicine is a big field and not all parts of it - from my experience on the receiving end, at least - seem to require all the same skills to be successful.
But that's simply not true, air conditioning has been ubiquitous in the US for decades.

They just didn't call it a heat pump, but it's a heat pump. This is just marketing bullshit AFAICT.
I think you start by targeting the platforms with more horsepower and can move down over time. Obviously they might just not do that work and stay on the high powered ones, but I don't think it's a given.
If they shipped a version of Windows sporting the Windows-11 kernel, so running all the recent software, but with Windows 2000 UI for a thousand dollars I would buy it immediately.
They're focusing on monetising the browser experience as a whole, with services like the VPN - not necessarily on pure browser features. It's still more than they were doing in the FFOS years.
NewPipe is garbage. Vanced has that original YouTube app feel, but works even better.
The researchers might better answer their question via neuroscience,
tomography or magnetic resonance imaging, rather than explosives.
I was wondering if one of the authors was a youtube employee and took code perhaps, but yours is the simpler explanation. Sounds logical to request this from Google's POV.
That depends on the cost of your utilities which very by region and even company, for example you may have a for profit gas vendor, and a coop for electric or vice versa that would change those economics.

For me my electric rates are pretty high, and my gas rates are pretty lowso in the winter I doubt a heat pump would be cheaper, in the fall and early spring when you just need to raise maybe 10deg over outside sure, but in the deep of winter I doubt it
Yes, but the more explicit take away is at 9:18

"There has never in history been an inflation that was not accompanied by a rapid increase in the quantity of money. There has never in history been a rapid increase in the quantity of money without an inflation."
They make more off you if you have a regular licence and they can sell your data. You wanting to pay extra not to be spied upon is irrelevant, you have no choice in the matter.

Very simply, the money lost because some people have left Windows for greener pastures is being offset by the increased revenue.
It's extremely difficult for me to pinpoint when / where the tendency to flatten (as in no more disparity) started. It's super weird. Everything is flat. I sense some kind of rejection of it from fear of potential dominance. But it's still odd to me.
The Youtuber "Adam Something" has a pretty brutal takedown of this idea. He brings up some good (counter)points to this idea.
Yes it does, but that just means you want to use as little power as possible (which is presumably already the case).

That effect is actually so bad that I have previously experienced thermal runaway due to it (more power => higher temperature => more power => …)

> STEM jobs are the main viable path for economic stability and freedom.

People repeat that but what is it based on? Most of the population, including most people who have economic stability and freedom, have not had STEM jobs and very likely will not have STEM jobs.

More importantly, college is about much more than job training. College prepares people to be adults in every way, not to be a resource for corporations.
I think there was a Pro for Workstations SKU that installed with a lot less candy crush in the start menu when I tried it.
Well, technically it's still the longest suspension bridge fully outside Asia.
“US college educations” consist mostly of schools that aren’t highly selective schools that discriminate against Asians. Most students aren’t going to private schools of any kind, let alone highly selective ones.
I'd never heard of Vanced before today. What features did they offer that YT Premium doesn't?
I think after 50 years we have a pretty good idea of its safety.
I don't think you can win this one.

The free market might as well be a religion for some people. Nothing (not even historical facts) is enough evidence for it to not be the answers to all economic issues.

Also, there are lots of US tech people here - with overly inflated salaries compared to approximately everyone else. And everyone knows those winning the game have a tendency to lose empathy and think the game is fair, no matter how much evidence against it.
Out of curiosity, where did the “leave early” belief come from in your opinion? In my community, leaving early would have been considered embarrassing and equivalent to conceding inability, and I fail to be but a representative member - but for you it was actually embarrassing to continue (the opposite).
Apple has historically seemingly been allergic to good thermal design. I would not be surprised in the least if they were leaving a lot of performance on the table because they'd rather do that than design proper cooling, despite how silly that sounds.

(Although with the m1 line it actually makes a bit of sense for once - it is useful to the end user to set things up so that fans /never spin up/ and the laptop never gets hot to the touch. Whereas with their previous intel models they had terible cooling and still had all of those problems, while not actually achieving a size win over a lot of competitors "thin and light" models that actually had competent thermal design)
They did tried to change the logo a few days before all this, at least on Discord.

However as others point here the "You are using our logo without our permission" is just a valid reason to shut down an app, and happens more often that it should.
At long-haul distances, a refueling stop saves fuel, even taking into account the extra take-off and landing. Taking off with all the fuel to make it to your destination means taking off with a lot of weight. And a larger aircraft to fly with long-haul tanks that will eventually be empty is inefficient too.

This is called "Intermediate Stop Operations". Of course, there are other costs beyond fuel (landing costs, staffing costs, etc.), but sometimes you can make this an advantage (e.g. staff always sleeps at home base each night).

> In some studies it was found that fuel savings are in the order of 13–23 % (the longer the mission, the more fuel could be saved) for missions with a single stopover if aircraft are used that are optimized for shorter ranges

Break it down by dog breed - it isn't Beagles doing those attacks (with extremely rare exception). Of course, one area where total delusion enters the debate is with people who think all dog breeds are equally inherently aggressive and likely to attack and thus any dog can be substituted with any other and be equally dangerous.
Yes, and we can force "no free lunch" to be true if we use enough nuclear bombs to wipe out life on earth or something.

But like clean air is/was analogous to the abundant fruit tree in the comic I posted. And it TURNED INTO polluted air through people ruining it just like the fruit BECAME non-free when Og claimed it and made others work to get any.

"No free lunch" is an aphorism used by people who don't want to let there be free lunches. It's not inherently true.
Tac nuke ground burst + reactor core = extremely bad news.

And of course you can wait until the wind is blowing in the right direction.

Yes, there would be consequences. But there are also consequences for going on a random shooter spree, and they don't stop random shooters.
what possible worse position could there have been? i dont understand why anyone would protest basic common sense of having a multiplexing protocol do multiplexing.

making it a hybrid multiplexing/not-multiplexong protocol, that can easily wrap & encapsulate streams but which is dead ass useless & requires subprotocol negotiation & tracking to deal with anything else seems like unbelievable busted jank. i literally cant imagine a worse way to do this. how was this compromise? who does this satisfy? i would have told any extremist protesting common semse to take a hike, would have started my own draft, would have died on this hill.

this is murderously bad incidental complexity. it's uncontainedly bad. what if someone doesnt opt to use the h3-dgram variant? then we are up shits creek: our protocols conflict & there's no way to resolve this mess. how do we differentiate channels (my term for "streams" of unordered datagrams) if everyone has different ways of defining channels? we invite in infinite forms of incompatibility. maybe we need to revamp the h3 encapsulation & spinkle a couple magic bytes as preamble, to try to mark our turf, declare our subprotocol.

this is the definition of insanity. this is a stupid awful mess. irreconcilable & infinitely confusing, forever & ever. disastrously wrong. how possibly could datagrams be done worse? what was "compromised"?

i have had such high hopes QUIC would be the transport protocol to encapsulate everything, to make a new dawn of connectivity possible. this is weap-into-my-keyboard stupid/bad news, this is impossibly broken, this is disaster: DATAFRAME is broken by design, due to "compromise", and nothing non-stream-based can work together ever atop QUIC (except in some special lucky cases) because the basic, most core, simple, sensible-est of guiding principles of QUIC got thrown out the door to make DATAFRAME, and it's ruin & damnation for it. DATAFRAME could not have a more elementary mistake if it tried. sctp notably managed to avoid shooting themselves in a vital area like this. abandon this DATAFRAME effort. it jeopardizes the overall QUIC effort itself that it is so awful.
This reminds me of this great scene from Lock stock and two smoking barrels:

I am always amazed by such megaprojects. Imagine how much planning and coordination needs to happen. So many different parts manufactured in different places need to come together at the right time and lifted up by a custom designed crane.
I pay the bare minimum payment and let inflation forgive them ;)
I don't disagree with this. It's the unfortunate reality that I hope changes, but that change needs to come from _a lot_ of dissatisfied customers.
Not sure what you're trying to say. Free vs not free is not the most important axis to consider when evaluating software.
If you use an Indian VPN to subscribe, you can get it for about 2 usd a month.
1. Heat pumps make it possible to use renewables for heating your house.
2. People in climate where heating dominates cooling for energy use don't usually have AC.
3. As heat pumps (and solar panels) get popular - prices of both fall to the point where it's worth it.
> the SAT is increasingly considered "racist" because it reveals racial disparities in learning

Could you provide an example of that claim? Usually the SAT is considered discriminatory because the way the testing is done favors wealthy, well-educated people, and gives negative results for equally talented people who lack those advantages. Colleges have found that the SAT is excluding a large part of the talent pool.

Also, SAT scores do not correlate well at all with college outcomes.

Why then use the SAT?

places like the bay area and los angeles are full of boomers turned coaches looking to profit from the tech generations by selling them all kinds of career / life / self help / relationship advice. if it wasn’t enough you need to pay them a cool 2 million for a shit shack they bought in the 80s for 70k, now they will reprogram you into thinking you need them. be careful and consider the possibility you know more than you think you do.
Interestingly enough, both this new bridge and the previous record holder (Japan's Akashi Kaikyo) are in earthquake zones.

The Akashi Kaikyo Bridge had its trial by fire during construction, when the Kobe Earthquake hit, and it passed with flying colors. Let's hope this bridge and Turkey's other megaprojects like the Marmaray tunnel under the Bosphorus in Istanbul also do so when the inevitable Big One hits.
Windows at this point is a ball and chain around even Microsoft's leg. They pivoted to a "cloud and services" company under Nadella because they can't make money off Windows anymore -- except by strip-mining its reputation and ubiquity by turning it into adware/spyware. Truly we live in the worst timeline.
I grew up a low income student as well but why kind of bullshit were they feeding you? My athlete friends were well aware you needed a 950 for any kind of NCAA consideration. It didn’t matter how good your grades or athleticism if you couldn’t pass that hurdle you were relegated to juco.

If anything most of the high school counselors in predominantly poor and black schools just don’t push very hard. They would tell you MIT was too far of a reach. They would tell you the best you could hope for was a private local, community college, or public state university. Who would ever consider Devry and MIT as equivalent?
At some point, the question has to be asked (and this is not directed at CodeEdit, but this prompted my question)... do we need another editor?

We have a very crowded editor market place. There seems(?) to be enough competition to drive innovation, and most(?) support plugins/extensions for devs to tailor to their needs (as opposed to swapping editors for a killer feature).

I also think there is a benefit to a team using the same editor for a project. This allows checking in of editor-specific files that increase productivity (We check in our .vscode folder with recommended extensions, on save actions, launch configs etc)

What do you think? Am I missing something here?

[Edit: To be clear, I'm personally not in the camp of "no more editors pleases", just was interested in seeing others thoughts here]
Yes, but all those Cloud Print enabled printers are still out there hammering the IPs.
You also have to plan on saying in the home for decades, when most people dont. Currently spending that money will not really increase the resell value of the home that much, so you like you will recouped it if you sell your home say 5-7 years (common average in the South - Southwest).

Bytecode inspection is a thing. It isn't too hard to know if two apks share a large amount of source.
Every LED is a solar cell.

Every electric engine is a generator.

Every speaker is a microphone.

Means nothing, because they suck in these unintended applications unless they were specifically designed for them.

What changed recently is - heat pumps and solar panels got cheap/good enough to be viable alternative for heating houses in most climates.
