Java has a terrible hack where it is technically creating a singleton class and attaching a function to that class that is then applied behind the scenes. The Functional interface is a horrible, unergonomic hack.

Likewise, C++ basically has function pointers (though I'd hardly put C/C++ in the same category). True closures aren't really possible without garbage collection or manually specifying the closure, but at that point, the closure is just a glorified struct and loses all its ergonomic advantages.
See the "business case for SIRA_PRISE". Imagine how many years of codeshitter-hours you [or, if you're in the DBMS market, your customers] would no longer have to pay for if you could have *ALL* of your [strictly data-related] business rules enforced by a mere *declaration* made by the business analyst c.q. the data administrator (note the absence of 'base' in that term), as opposed to having to rely on those very same codeshitters because there simply ain't no other way for you to enforce same set of said business rules other than to pay that mob for coding all that application-enforced integrity (which they are bound to get wrong because it is fundamentally beyond their ability) or the stored procedures that achieve the same but are still procedural (and is still bound to fail for essentially the same reason).

If you know about TTM, you might also know about "Applied Mathematics for Database Professionals". What I'm referring to is their "execution model 6" becoming possible *WITHOUT* any [procedural form of] coding [by mere programmers].

Another way of saying this is "You can have CREATE ASSERTION if you want to".

No, we should care about everyone. But even not caring at all is better than to care about subs and not care about other.
When i hover over connection.create_connection i get a docstring that says it returns a socket.

That docstring isn’t enough for the problem you had though, e.g. I wasn’t clear from that if they meant a socket.socket or maybe some special socket derivative type so i hit go to definition and create_connection is a short method - i can see it is indeed a socket.socket being created, configured and returned.

I’m guessing you’re not using any developer tooling, maybe a straight text editor i guess?

This kind of tooling has been around for a long time, i remember using rope and jedi in vim back around the late 2000’s i think. It’s gotten a LOT better since PyCharm appeared mid 2010’s i think - first i recall using it must have been around 2014-ish. These days, it’s even better. I would really strongly encourage adopting some kind of tooling that lets you navigate and has some basic refactoring - rename is usually 80%+ of the value there so it doesn’t need to be complex. A few ergonomics like having the ability to jump to test and call from repl with a keystroke - you’ll turbo charge your comfort and productivity.

That has to be our difference i think because it took one mouse move and one key chord to completely bottom out.

What other mainstream news networks are there? Are you including non-cable news? Because the only other cable network I can even think of is OAN, which is much less mainstream. I'm not arguing whether any of those are/aren't partisan, just that I don't know what you're comparing them to.

Absolutely! This is one of the main features of magic-trace, and in fact a primary use-case.

You can select a trigger symbol for magic-trace to snapshot upon the next call of. This can be whatever you want, and you can imagine writing code like

if (something_really_wonky_happened) { take_magic_trace(); }

and asking magic-trace to take a snapshot of the past only when `take_magic_trace` is called.
I wouldn't be so worried about non-native English speakers. 'Whitelist' and 'blacklist' are common enough terms that they've become loanwords in other languages. In Chinese, at least, the equivalent terms are 白名单 'white name list' and 黑名单 'black name list' and 拉黑 'pull (into) black(list)' is common vernacular for blocking someone on social media.

"So "dark" "gritty" "realistic" comics post-Watchmen are really kind of pointless."

Reminds me of the sheer number of times I've seen "clever" people give a dark, gritty take on Alice in Wonderland. The weird thing to do with that material is give it an unironically bright, sunny, upbeat interpretation. If the surface of the original material isn't "dark", it sure isn't hiding very deeply under the surface.

There are definitely applications that are useful, even if they are firmly in the luxury territory. Smart lights, doorbells, thermostats, assistants, blinds/curtains and security cameras are all pretty useful.

I have a few of those but I've mostly avoided them due to vendor lock in. Stuff in houses lasts a long time. I don't want to have to replace my door lock every 5 years.

Some of the products are a bit difficult to actually integrate too. Smart locks are all "American security" level. Smart lights don't work well with existing switches. I don't actually know of any smart curtain openers so I'm making my own.

One day I think the issues will be resolved and it will become more common.
The section on power really understates the complexity. Throttling didn't appear until the mid-90's as a coarse clock gating chipwide. Voltage/frequency scaling appeared a few years later (gradual P-state transitions). Then power control units monitored key activity signals and could not only scale the voltage, but estimate power and target specific blocks (e.g., turning off L1 D$).

There are some more details in there but that's the main gist. The power control unit is its own operating system!

Let me tell you my anecdotal experience. Modi came in power in 2014 and till than I was BJP (Modi's party) supporter.

Then I began to see how dangerous Modi is to society as a whole. In short, he is modern, complex sophisticated version of Nazi ideology. He carefully raised an army of hindu rightwing members who are bigots, intolerant and full of hate. He doesn't belive in democracy, freedom of speech, human rights, tolerance, diversity, press freedom and stuffs like that. Anyway...

Earlier I (and every other Modi opponent I know) would openly criticize him on various SM platofrms or whatsapp groups. Now we just stay silent. We now dont even talk anything against him even in familiar circles. Why? Because we are afraid. You may get beaten. You may be arrested. You may be shunned.

I live in an apartment in Delhi and there is a whatsapp group for that apartment where we share and discuss apartment related issues. Some Modi supporters often post highly inflammble propagandist anti muslims post on regular basis. One guy politely objected to it. He was immediatly declared anti-hindu and anti India. He was removed from the group. He was 'politely' told that he should be careful in future. The friendly neighbors have turned foes.

Even I was cornered and declared anti-national many times (luckily by people who were otherwise friendly to me.) This is happening all around in India. If you aren't Modi supporter, just keep your mouth shut.

> Steve Jobs’ mythologized demands were in service of the consumer, while shouldering the manufacturing burden inherent in them

I think a citation is needed for this - my opinion is that in most cases Apple's design choices focused on doing things differently, whether that was an upgrade, sidegrade or downgrade. They tried to make sure their design choices were positive but there are enough examples of Apple changing things for seemingly no reason because they weren't broken. And a lot of other manufacturers followed suit because Apple remains a trend setter and consumers then started to demand the feature. It's less like leading a horse to water and more like leading a horse to a craps table and then assuming that because the horse likes you they'll consider that playing craps in the middle of the desert is a natural state.

All that said, being different and being innovators was Apple's brand, so failing to deliver strange design decisions actually would fail to meet consumer expectations... the consumer didn't demand hockey puck mice, but they demanded something different from regular mice and delighted in the new shape (for a while, until the ergonomics of the mouse became clear - but for quite some time people really celebrated those mice, at least where I grew up)
I very much doubt anyone is actually offended by the word "motherboard". More likely it's a dumb inductive argument. "Some people are offended by some gendered words => every gendered word might offend someone => every gendered word must be eliminated as a precaution".

Yes, lots of services do. Apple is unique though in that a purchase entitles you to all versions of a film, including future versions. I bought 3:10 to Yuma on iTunes in 2008 and I can watch it in 4K/HDR today without spending another cent.

I still prefer buying and ripping Blu-Rays though.

>There are lots of people with "concerns" about medical transition being given out hastily without proper assessment, but never any evidence that such a thing is happening.

My understanding was that attempting to get hormones or other medications to help with transitioning in the US was so damn difficult the accepted solution was to buy them from sketchy Russian sources!

It's just the same scare tactics as "But there's women using abortion as birth control!". Like, maybe there's some women so horrible that they are willing to endure the misery, often-shame, cost, and physical pain required for an abortion for the occasional times they get pregnant, but that sounds to me like they are already being punished.
But you aren't. Saying that "Motherboard" is offensive is basically misinformation.

> combined cable & internet is cheaper than only interne

Be careful. Its not cheaper after they include local programming fees.
Prepared statements are only on a single connection (Session), its actually surprising that PG doesn't even cache prepared statements always!

In MS SQL server plans are always cached unless told not to this is across connections, if it sees the same sql statement its will skip planning, this goes way back. If you go back far enough it only did that for stored procedures so there was a push to do everything through sprocs for performance, not so much in the last 20 years. Using prepared statements is for backward compatibility as is has almost no performance advantage due to modern plan caching.

I think PG finally has sprocs but still no plan caching even for them unless somethings changed.

PG has no way to share plans between worker processes AKAIK. I believe the lack of plan caching is noticed more with heavy jit optimizing performance where PG will use LLVM now which has a relatively high cost.

Proof by repeated assertion. The post you are replying to is an effective response to yours. Once more: It does not affect your ability to make a living if I consume a copy of your IP that I was not going to pay for in the first place. Watching it without paying for it does not take money from you, because you would still not have had that money if I had simply not watched it at all.

> If you weren't going to watch it, you wouldn't.

This is flat out false and incredibly obviously so. You can easily see it just by cranking the numbers - if a video game is fun, but costs $500, do you really think that each person who pirates it is depriving the developer of $500? If some magical DRM scheme was implemented that could not be broken and guaranteed every person who played it, bought it, would everyone who pirated it in the previous hypothetical instead buy it for $500? No, they would ignore it, nobody would buy it, and the developer would have just as little money as they had before.

Pirating a piece of IP does not translate 1:1 into a lost sale as you keep variously asserting and acting like it does. It can even turn into a gained sale, in the case of video games or software, when people would not have bought it based on the promotional material but consider it worth buying after actually using it. You have a right to exclusivity on sales - selling pirated material is criminal - but you don't have a right to actually make any sales if nobody wants to buy it.

It ought to be offensive to women because it suggests they can't be landlords-- a word which is already perfectly gender neutral in American English as far as I can tell.
I keep work and personal accounts separate as well. I do a fair amount of open source work and maybe one day I will find a way to generate some passive income. If that day ever comes, I want there to be a clear separation between work done for my employer and work done for myself. It is important to maintain a clear separation between the two.
The western high-fat/carb diet also seems to cause Akkermansia populations to drop

The West, typically, eats a tiny, tiny fraction of the fat it used to. And also far less animal fat.

Do you know what went in soups, stews? Bones, with fat, for flavour, and energy, and nutrition.

What were pies made of? Pies, made to allow older apples and such, to be used past their best date?

Loads of animal fat in the crust.

And, especially in Canada, our pork is now leaner than beef was 50 years ago! And our beef is silly lean.

We eat far, far less fat than our ancestors, who would never throw away such valuable, nutritious calories.

If the simple metric is, why were we thin before, and overweight now? And if the answer is "our diet changed", then this logic means we should all be eating about 10x the calories we currently do, in animal fat, and tapering off the rest.

What if all those craving are just simply "the body needs more nutritious fat". Just like our ancestors ate.

What if we crave salty snacks, coated in vegetable oil (potato chips), because our body desperately wants salty fat?

Being overweight is far, far more unhealthy than eating more animal fat daily.

What if the cost of low fat diets, is an irresistable urge which causes weight gain?

If so, low fat diets are, therefore, very unhealthy... because being overweight is far worse.

What exactly do you mean by the "C model"? Computers have followed the Von Neumann architecture for quite a long time. That PDP-11 is fundamentally the same as a modern computer, albeit millions of times slower.
And I'm curious as well what "new paradigms" you have in mind.
Sort of. It's more like one side is being inconsistent because the other side has given them adversarial license to do so by also being inconsistent, but in the opposite direction. Both sides should want common-carrier regulation for both residential ISPs (Comcast) and OSPs (Twitter).

There's also a related problem in which both sides not wanting something their constituents want will use each other as an excuse to not do the thing. For example, Right to Repair polls very favorably with basically anyone, but politicians do not want to touch it with a 10 foot pole. It is an "antipartisan issue", one that has popular support but bipartisan opposition. One way you can kill an antipartisan issue is by turning it into a partisan one, so that your side's supporters shut up about it and the opposing side's supporters are deadlocked by yours. There have been attempts to do this by R2R opponents, by say, telling angry farmers that R2R actually only benefits rich, MacBook-toting liberals.
And.. pass them on to some other poor bloke?

Anyway it does seem like certain stuff seems to build up in the blood-stream over the years, with the body having no way of removing it, and that bleeding and receiving plasma effectively gets rid of it.

I wonder if this could be considered as a real medical treatment and offered to people.

"Strong cirumstantial evidence" of a Tomahawk-class missile being used.

I know Russia already spent the money, and that eventually all gear goes past it's live-by date. Still it feels like a huge expense. Tomahawk missiles supposedly were $0.25million/piece. Especially with new chip-supply issues & a risk of being unable to refill, it's hard to imagine what they see they're getting from this.

Somewhere in here is a: expensive submarines, the real sunk-cost fallacy (and it's impact on world stability) joke.
The Dark Crystal, Travelers
Sorry to pile on, but this doesn't look great. Most people with any quantitative finance experience will tell you this is the wrong approach / the wrong application of these types of techniques. ML in trading is primarily used for portfolio optimization and relative value-type analysis. It (and especially Reinforcement Learning) are not useful if you a just trying to build signals to trade with. And Fibonacci Retracements are only kinda useful as a visual tool for assets that are mean-reverting in some capacity (i.e. forex). It is applicable to Crypto to an extent, but the volatility of Crypto nullifies most of the usefulness as this as an actual trading signal.

If you really want to pursue this, it would be helpful if you provided a bit of info on how the strategies worked, what type of hedging / risk management is going on, etc.

Best of luck
