Not the author of that comment but I would interpret it to mean all the files were compiled with -std=c++20 (or 2a)

Given the quality and extent of c++20 support over the past few years it can’t have meant using a lot of c++20 at least for most of the time. Then again things like fmt and ranges had 3P libraries that influenced the standard (I’ve been using them myself for years) so more is possible than came with the compilers.

All that being said I would rate the comment as hyperbole. Had it been phrased something like “I’ve been compiling specifying c++20, and have heavily leant on 17 and some key 20 features” I’d be quite fine with it.

Features like coroutines still require a lot of plumbing in order to use; features like that go into a standard so that version n+1 can have the right user abstractions, which can only be developed through experience.

TBH I quite enjoy using C++ from the perspective of a language not based on C (at least don’t think of it that way) with an amazing c-compatibility layer only very occasionally needed. For example I worked on a large system compiled with c++17 at a very high level of abstraction, but that had a deep grotty memory management using pointers, malloc and mmap implemented in two files. It was invisible to the people worrying about the high level logic.
I think a lot of people are making the assumption that long term values in this case would somehow mean a less toxic place. Toxicity and rage bait is of course highly profitable, and users who can actually put twitter aside and not let it invade their day are the least profitable users. Private or public the incentives of a business are always to not leave any money on the table.

> The best way to send that message would be to stop breathlessly covering the various goings-on on Twitter.

Reporters are going to report on what brings readers, and one of the most upsetting things about the press nowadays is this idea that they should help "shape the narrative". If the press is truly independent, they could and should report on what happens at Twitter.

In any case, your idea and mine are orthogonal.

> Attempting to clone Twitter

I used Mastodon in the example, but it wouldn't be a twitter clone. This is not what ActivityPub is.

The point of adopting ActivityPub for them would be simply to be able to claim that they can be in control of their own discourse and that they do not depend on Big Tech and their social networks.

> They also didn't try to compete with, say, Ma Bell or Clear Channel,

Is not that they would do it to "compete", they could do it simply to stop contributing to the problem that they are so frequently writing about. And it certainly requires infinitely less resources to run an AP server than to create a phone network. I can profitably run a Mastodon server for the NYT for less than $500/month.
Kermit supported much more than serial connections. It supported DEC LAT, telnet/telnet SSL and rlogin natively. Through external apps it supported TN3270, TN5250 and ssh.
Holy shit. That's awesome news. It aligns pretty well with recent evidence (showing Epstein-Barr virus being extremely prevalent in MS patietns) and seems to target the disease in exactly the right spot. It looks like a similar treatment as the one people were using for covid. I wonder if patients would need to wait for the end of the trials (probably taking more than 2 years) or if they may start getting it now.
same team. different company.

I was a fan of kermit, especially once they added sliding windows for ACKs that allowed 99% of line speed instead of 33% or similar. Even just watching the modem lights you could see a huge difference. However their license meant you couldn't include the binary with a linux distro. The build system wasn't particularly user friendly, required much more than ./configure; make; make install.

I ended up switching to qmodem (an app) with a zmodem plugin, minicom, and even occasionally screen (which supports serial to /dev/ttyUSB0 and the like).

I believe they fixed the license, but the damage had already been done and seems like most used the distro provided tools.
The title is misleading. It's 40x faster only on the second run not because of any hotpath code code speedup, but because it has an option to use a cache to remember state of previous files. The full check durations are on the same ballpark. This has nothing to do with deno.

Say prettier also added a cache to save the state of previous files, it would also be only 1s.
If I had to guess it was probably 8 shares total for the price of 4.
But your point still holds truth, instead of lamenting masculinity (very few people care) perhaps "the left" should reorient itself to actually improve working conditions and most importantly wages.

I largely agree. The left's real mission is unifying, not divisive. (The corporate "woke" left is a ruse designed to divide people against each other by emphasizing identity politics and de-emphasizing class, money, and systemic effects.)

I only point out (or, at least, purport) the existence of a Masculine Crisis because I think it is real enough for people like Peterson and Carlson to capitalize on. Society still tells men they have to "provide" and heterosexual women still expect them to, and if the only way to do so is to humiliate themselves, that's a historically dangerous situation.
Which must be why I didn’t object to that part, only to the (explanation of the legal) justification given. Could you give my comment a re-read and ensure you were replying to the right one?
Yeah no. Look up the three generation policy. I’m married to a defector.
Ugh. Similar to a local branch of big multinational banks - almost entirely pointless, basically always empty, but land-squatting to advertise the bank's brand. They are such a waste of retail space, and they are brutally common.
As much as I disagree with the article, this is just the engineer's version of it.

I think you would find it really interesting to try running a company or even a team. I think it would help you see your prior managers in a different light.
> This is after we had CORPORATE control of twitter (which they apparently applaud)

... they aren't aplauding it. They are offering suggestions now that twitter is under new ownership, since the previous owners were inept. It's likely that musk is equally inept (or worse.)
Definitely, I used Mastodon as an example because it is what has become associated as the alternative for Twitter. But the important thing would be for them to adopt ActivityPub and get the "public square" out of the control from any single entity.
We're used to thinking of our genes as being a bit like fate. They have a part in determining how our lives play out, but that's it, and other factors matter too.

This does a rapidly evolving field a tremendous disservice. Genetics is becoming an immensely practical field. e.g. Genetic sequencing is now cheap enough to be easily affordable. Certain genes can greatly increase your chance of cancer. However, this isn't just fate we must passively accept.

Armed with the knowledge revealed by sequencing, you can be regularly screened for the specific types of cancer you're most likely to get. Some genetic mutations, while making people more susceptible to cancer, also makes any cancer they develop susceptible to alternative treatments like gene therapy that are more effective and carry fewer negative side-effects than chemotherapy or radiation therapy. i.e. Cancer cells aren't some alien invader. They have our genes and our genetic defects too. These weaknesses can sometimes be exploited to kill cancer cells if we know about them.

Joy may play a huge part in our well-being, but discovering and acting on our poor genes can have a huge impact on our lives. We should stop viewing our genes as fate and instead view them more like the parts of an engine. We can address defects in those parts proactively, but only if we go to the trouble of looking under the hood.
Definitions are important so people can avoid talking past each others, so it's good to define what "woke" means to you. But going past that and saying "my definition is right, everyone else has no clue" is not productive.

I think you'll find most people who complain about wokeness have no issue treating others with respect and behaving with decorum. "Woke" people do not have a monopoly on kindness and respect.

I'll give my definition of wokeness, which I think is shared by a lot of people who complain about it. "Wokeness", to me, is divisive self-righteous zealotry. It's a way for a lot of people who claim to stand for inclusion and kindness to ignore all nuance and paint themselves as morally superior while openly despising anyone who holds different beliefs.
>But the reality is, that shaping such an organization (or company!) is exceedingly hard and requires massive culture shifts within people of the organization (which bring their own baggage from outside) and incentives. It's easy to say you want to be Apple, but hammering a 3rd tier company filled with backstabbing juniors into a highly performing machine is going to be an impossible task.

(Disclaimer: I have not done any military service) The Swedish military had an educational course, now licensed to private companies, named UGL (Utveckling av Grupp och Ledare (Development of Group and Leader)). I took this course as part of a management position at a company and it focuses heavily on theoretical knowledge and practical exercises with regard to Susan Wheelan's work and research on group dynamics, i.e. what are the characteristics of different team 'levels' (1-4) and ways/prerequisites to get the team to the next level.

I've seen exercises and mentions to this model at other companies I've been at (it's quite popular and Wheelan is as I understand it an authority in this field), too, as well as various distilled forms from motivational speakers (e.g. 'being in the zone').

Very few teams rise to the highest level (before dissolution) and it takes tremendous work and good leadership, but from what I've learned it's hardly impossible. Of course, addressing the culture of backstabbing juniors is part of that process, so I guess you're right that it is impossible without change.

While on the subject, I wonder how many armed forces throughout the world have curriculums containing inter-personal relationship courses and group exercises pertaining to this. From what little exposure I've had to this subject (TV and movies, mostly US such) it seems to be something being taught naturally and 'the hard way', but maybe it's just something that doesn't come naturally to us Swedes so we need extra education in these sort of things.

Haha, fair enough.

I'm going to try my best to find a more matured and curated (and long lived) kind of horsesh!t that's closer to actual truths than the fresh and regular horsesh!t on twitter.

We should probably stop now. Good luck.
I think it works for either very tech savvy (who tinker but know how to fix things) or completely not tech savvy people (who will never tinker and use the computer for very basic things).

If you're medium tech savvy then you run the risk of knowing how to break something but not fix it.

I think you missed some of the nuance. This is two famous people with the same name, one just much more famous. There's likely to be some times where over 5-10 years which of the two is more famous shifts.

A name is not a unique identifier. Full stop. If you expect a specific name to refer to a specific person just because it's public, you're glossing over a lot of details which just plain don't make that work.

To some degree, this is not a problem with the social media network, it's a problem with people not realizing that a name on a social media network doesn't necessarily have to be the first person you think of when you see that name, and some personal responsibility to know who you're contacting is expected. There's things social networks can and should do to make this easier, but ultimately the problem will persist until people change their behavior.
First of all, the mRNA Covid vaccines have proved highly effective, compared to influenza vaccines, for example. They're probably the most effective vaccines ever developed for any respiratory virus.

Secondly, EBV is a herpes family virus, which as a DNA virus is about as far removed from an RNA virus like SARS-CoV-2 as it's possible to get on the virus family tree. There's no reason to expect that the efficacy of a particular vaccine technology on one would have any relation whatsoever to that of the other!
In theory, GC can be faster than RC. (Because tracing GC only pays an overhead proportional to what's still alive after a while, once in time. RC pays an overhead for every operation.)
Assuming you can transfer a connection more efficiently than having the peer reconnecting, how do you transfer the L7 application state? What if TLS keys are involved? What if the original host is long gone...
The terms of service you agreed to when you signed up for twitter determined that was a lie. People say all sorts of things that aren't true, especially in the business world. If you're taking people at face value, that is your problem, not mine.

Twitter is a business and it literally has nothing to do with democracy at all. Using twitter is a personal choice, if you don't like it, don't use it. That's the solution. Your perception of their business being negative or even positive is neither here nor there.
Like PewDiePie, Azealia Banks, Babylon Bee, and Carpe Donktum?

By the way, in the USA there is no legal support for the term hate speech. It is covered under the umbrella of the first amendment.
In that case, the algorithm is the labels.
Those are vague slogans, and I don't think they're true (or more precisely: they rely on conditions that won't exist in the contexts where you're trying to apply them).

For instance: put a committed extreme left-liberal in front of Fox News opinion programming for 8 hour a day, and they'll be more likely to die of an aneurysm due to constant rage than to moderate.

If the distance is too great, throw-em-together online contact isn't going to do anything to bring people closer together. At large ideological distances, the only kind of contact that can bring people together is a very slow, deliberate, and personal kind (e.g. the opposite of social media). That's why my comment was about engineering smaller-distance contacts.
> It is kind of crazy that JTC1 is OK with producing entirely imaginary documents.

I don’t think they do this much if at all any more having been burned in the past. If anything they are more extreme in the other direction: for every person who complains the standard is moving too quickly there is someone complaining that the committee is moving too slowly (“what? Still no networking?”)

They aren’t as hardcore as the IETF’s two independent implementations but I’m not sure how faithful the IETF ever was to that (perhaps apocryphal) criterion anyway.

> He's already said that he'd follow all local laws so it would be interesting to see if he can find the elusive path of maintaining free speech, following the law and not having Twitter being a toxic cesspool used mainly to shout down those not our your "side".

> The characters we use to interact with our computers were mostly designed to be hand-written and minimize the amount of movement your hand has to make going from one letter to the next.

That is an interesting theory. Do you remember a source for it?

Taking that idea to an extreme (and not suggesting the theory requires such an extreme), imagine optimizing characters only for that specification. I imagine much more prominence for simple, single, mostly horizontal lines, moving left-right and ending rightward.

/ \ - ~ _ , . ` ' ^ n u v w m 2 z ...

The punctuation performs much better. You could imagine 'dot on bottom', 'dot in middle', 'dot on top', 'two dots on bottom' ... 'line on bottom' ... 'tilde on bottom' ... 'slash top to bottom', 'slash middle to bottom' ... etc.
You can usually roll your own allocators and use them the standard library.

But one of the nice things about c++ is when you have specialized needs you can write your own implementation of something and it’s just as “first class” as something in std::.
The incentives for bad actors are also different too. Imagine the difficulty to craft a bot ring that can reach into and affect thousands of forums to reach millions of users. It didn’t ever happen because it was too complex of a problem. Meanwhile, you throw all these millions of users in one basket, suddenly you only need to develop a botring for one network and the incentives are also sky high because how many people you can reach with that one botring.
Comparing the WP to Twitter is laughable. Twitter is so core to modern tech and the modern internet some people argue it should be public infrastructure. Although Bezos saved it, WP is one of many floundering newspapers, a dead format.

PHP has value types - the one "every data structure at once" type gets deep copied when you pass it to another function. That's enough to make it a good programming language, whereas Python is unnecessarily 90s class-based OOP with reference types.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

Also, do not attribute to malice what can be attributed to negligence.

I was about to blow the outrage horn but decided to do some reading. After going over the entire wiki, i could not find any single shred of evidence that could even suggest outright malice or worse, criminality, from nestle.

I remain open minded, but I'd like to see evidence that justifies the claims.

Currently, the accusations seem based on selective facts & theory, used to form a narrative that is questionable at best.

However, nowhere in the article did i see any mention of any of the positive effects by nestle donations.

Here are some counterfactuals:
1- most men do not realize that women may not produce milk for several days despite lactating nonstop during this time. Newborns in such cases will be inmediately be given formula before jaundice sets in. Nestle probably (unintentionally) saved countless children from death this way.
2- formula and breatsfeeding are not mutually exclusive. The notion that free formula would impair the ability of women to continue breastfeeding is not true, as many dads will attest.
3- Africa life expectancy / health outcomes are poor. In any emergency, you do want to have formula as a fallback option
4- this article presents african women as naive with zero proof.

Is there a smoking gun that i missed somewhere?

If that were in any way even remotely representative of what is being defined as hate speech and weaponized, you might have a point. Tangentially, I’ve noticed a few occasions where rule enforcement for racial slurs seem to get bent quite often for the right democrats. Hard to trust the gavel-wielding infant cabal when there are multiple sets of rules. This is why free speech exists, so the bad apples in California don’t poison the rest of the tree.
> Docker

Many people use/need Docker, but of course it requires a Linux kernel (often running in a hypervisor if you're running macOS.) VMs can easily eat up a lot of resources, especially memory. Alternately a VM without enough memory will also perform abysmally.

I've also heard complaints about poor performance (vs. native Linux or even WSL on x86 hardware) of x86 Docker images running in emulation on an M1 MacBook Air.
Twitter PMs would argue they've already communicated the objective function: relevance and engagement.

My point is that the devil is in the details and implementation. These details are likely something that no one person understands and no one person is able to fix. The concept of being able to extract "the algorithm", factor it out from the codebase and share it with the public doesn't make sense to me. It won't be possible to fully understand how Twitter serves recommendations and ranks posts without understanding how all the different services at Twitter interact. Are they planning on open sourcing all of Twitter? Highly doubtful.
