I think there are powerful second order or related effects here. There is both what screens and social media replace, and what they enable.

This is the most risk adverse, most monitored, and most policed generation of Americans.

I think this results in less freedom to experiment, explore, grow, and find happiness.

In about 25 years we have gone from teens behavior being largely untraceable, to them being reachable by cellphones, to the majority of their behavior and communication being recorded and available for later scrutiny.

Salesforce informed you that their entire DB was compromised, and not just the Github OAuth tokens, as they've been saying for weeks? The first indication that anything except a Github specific DB was compromised was Tuesday, when they started telling people that seemingly-all non-DB non-addon credentials were going to roll.
> the only way you can write merge sort is if you memorize it (or spend an inordinate amount of time writing sorting algos)

Umm, what?

void merge(int* d,int const* a,size_t za,int const* b,size_t zb)
{
size_t zd = za+zb,ia=0,ib=0;
for(size_t i=0; i<zd ;i++)
{
if(ia < za && ib < zb)
{
if(a[ia] < b[ib]) d[i] = a[ia++];
else d[i] = b[ib++];
}
else if(ia < za) d[i] = a[ia++];
else if(ib < zb) d[i] = b[ib++];
else abort(); // should have i==zd now
}
}
void msort(int* d,size_t z,int const* s)
{
if(z==1) *d = *s;
if(z<=1) return;
size_t h = z - (z>>1); // round up
int* x = malloc(h * sizeof *x);
if(!x) abort(); // out of memory
msort(x,h,s+(z-h));
msort(d+h,z-h,s);
merge(d,d+h,z-h,x,h);
}

Are you using a absurdly broad definition of what counts as memorizing something or something?
Play some video games, research something interesting, stay in school but don't take it too seriously, and learn a marketable skill slowly. Do this, dgaf about everyone else, you'll be ok.
I agree that's a big problem, but it's still less bad than iOS where you just can't flash a custom firmware. And sideloading is a really, really big thing.
Well, the doom-scrolling is a feature not a bug of social media. If you think the world is ending tomorrow, don't you want to be there to watch it all end?
"Will ever" is quite the prediction. I think technology is going to completely disrupt this within the next 100-200 years. Sure players will have sex for fun, but the child birth process, genetic trait selection etc. will be on a whole new level. Your choice: will you use Meta-genetics or Google Birth?
Unless I missed it, there is no mention of the environmental cost of the process itself.

What I mean by that is all the chemistry / electrolysis / carbon nanotube stuff, they do mention that this is where the main cost is, but what happens when that equipment needs to be replaced?

What is the environmental impact of the equipment itself?
So it looks like that all the assholes actually were immediately promoted to management positions, everyone else became a worker.

> MoodWatch, based on rhetorical theories developed by David Kaufer, chairman of the English department of Carnegie Mellon University, employs a very fast and efficient algorithm to identify words and phrases that might be offensive. As such, it's efficient at flagging potentially offensive messages, but it is up to the user to decide if a message 'deserves the chilies.'

This is from a release announcement of Eudora, a bygone, once-popular e-mail client. (Kudos to Qualcomm to keeping this online 22 years later!) "Deserve the chilies" refers to how the client would display one to three chili pepper icons if it felt your e-mail was rude or offensive. (Software used to be whimsical.)

There was a white paper that described how they trained the feature on postings from the Usenet group alt.flame. Also, the source code to Eudora is now available from the Computer History Museum, including MoodWatch: https://computerhistory.org/blog/the-eudora-email-client-sou...

That's not just musicians who say that. My mom says that.
I reset my password and then closed my Heroku account today. What a sad end for something that was once a model for software deployment and developer experience.
Yeah, I'm sure a lot of it is copy/pasted or #included from his other work.

There’s a night and day difference between iOS and even high end Android, starting with performance and consistency of the platform.
This is super cool. I think you just saved me a massive headache, as I plan to roll out a healthcare app with PHI in the next few months.
Excellent, thank you!

I suppose I should have researched more recently before commenting. The fact that this doesn't make front page national news is mind boggling to me.
That is what I mean! You need static top-level declarations of every out-of-elm iteration you want to do.

React on the other hand can wrap a JQuery calendar in a React component and from a programming point of view, using that component you would be none the wiser.

Also ports force everything to be async - and I am not talking just promises - I mean a new render per call response! So calculating 1+1 on a port requires generate a new render, and intercepting the result in a Redux-style handler, bubbling that into a component.

While you won't need to do 1+1 via ports, you might need to use a synchronous web-api feature that has not been ported to elm, or even use a math package to multiply some matrices.
When you put it like that, sounds like there's a log4j somewhere in there, easily.

Wasn’t the link between high cholesterol and heart disease debunked in recent years? I had the impression that it was the excess carbs / sugars which are what causes health problems.

And high cholesterol in and off itself is not problematic, if your other stats are in line. E.g. high cholesterol can be a pointer to other problems, but it itself is not considered dangerous.
> dgaf about everyone else, you'll be ok

It sounds cool but it could be taken as serious advice. If that's how you truly feel and act, you are not ok and you are missing out on what is most rewarding in life.
While I can flash it, it's very unlikely that I actually will due to the invalidation of the SafetyNet status that I mentioned. If I can't make use of this feature without losing apps I care about, then I might as well treat the phone as if it never came with that feature in the first place.

As for lack of sideloading, we'll see. I heavily rely on NewPipe, but maybe there's another way to scratch that itch.
I feel for the team working on this at this time. I hope this doesn't end up accelerating the culling off of Heroku by Salesforce. One of the smartest and nicest bunch of folks I've worked with.
Efficiency is secondary. Cost is primary. As the cost of generator capacity continues on down, people worry less about efficiency. The top-line input, sunshine, is free. So it is a question of capital cost amortized over energy produced.
Not GP, but one architecture where there would be a difference is there's a distinct identity provider, responsible solely for exchanging the user's long-lived username/password credentials for a short-lived ticket.
Threat actor is industry standard terminology for a malevolent or blackhat brand of hacker.

> The 9-0 supreme court case that set this precedence:

Small nitpick: a decision is not precedent until it is 1) challenged and 2) survives the challenge. A decision in isolation without seeing a challenge and also surviving that challenge is technically not precedent (though it still is the Law of the Land, precedence or not).
Me too. But, I'm genX. It sounds likes it's different now.
As a parent of a 10 and 7yo your insight here is absolutely golden.

I worry a lot about my kids getting sucked into that world. Right now we're keeping them well away from social media, and very little and restricted screen time.

Your comment gives me confidence that this is the right approach, but I'm not sure yet how to navigate it as they enter their teenage years and all their friends have phones.

We are leaning them into non-digital pastimes and IRL relationships, which they fortunately enjoy. I hope this momentum can carry them through what I see as the danger years of teenage and early adulthood.

Second order differential: he's saying acceleration is not going to continue, but the absolute numbers installed will still be huge and increasing year over year.
The way to control what is being amplified is to control what people are producing. You can try to do this by modulating what is allowed to be produced or you can modulate this on the demand side. The latter is more robust but harder to legislate. It can be done via greater public awareness though. We have multiple case studies for this sort of thing.
My existing job transferred me over to a French company we had, and I learned French via Alliance Française for two years before the move.
Boutique item, maybe unless the batteries can be replaced while it operates. They would need a hell of a lot of spare batteries, and somebody running around replacing them. Presumably today people are driving out to fill up fuel in existing tractors after some number of rows.
Yes, because Prometheus fuels is trying to extract from atmosphere. Scavenging industrial CO2 byproduct is something you can only do opportunistically.
Completely agree, heart goes out to the team. No harsh judgement of all the engineering team there, not a fun situation and hope they know a lot of folks in their corner.
It does, but not as radically or frequently as software. The tools stay (mostly) the same. A reasonably experienced barber should be able to learn this year's haircut fashion after a couple customers.
Certainly I’m biased, but on the vertical alignment thing I think I can be objective: relying on sub-millimetre positioning is a bad idea.
> Ruby on Rails just has a much better bang for buck than C++ and customers know it. Powerful hardware is dirt-cheap these days, so nobody wants to pay for the extra +50% you get from C++ over JavaScript.

Depends. Use cases with highly constrained hardware SWaP where inches, ounces, and watts matter, the expense to optimize may well be worth it.
Because if 5% of the customers actually need the part that bad, they'll make more money and still have almost all the components left... plus bonus supply chain disruption of the western imperialists.
Going through it at the moment - seems more annoying as a partner of a French person, seems like talent passport would be easier.

You're being obtuse. An application choosing not to service you definitely counts as losing functionality.
The chemical reagents are not consumed in operation, but they could be subject to contamination over time, and need to be replaced periodically.

Not relationships, marriage, work, or community. Even business is rarely zero sum, or the economy wouldn't grow. Generally speaking, business is win-win deals.
Just want to clarify that I am personally against invading any country. But Russia did indeed invade this country, so I am brainstorming as to what their equation may be.

Russia is after all a rational actor on the world stage, and they must have thought the benefits are stronger than the cons.
He said barber, not hairdresser. Men’s hairstyles really don’t change that fast and the degree of technical sophistication involved doesn’t change radically over a career. You can get better at being a barber but there’s always going to be demand for a short back and sides or a buzz cut.

> but it is not a guarantee that attacker didn't move from one area to another.

The incident notification seems like the customers who are using GitHub integration are the ones who are compromised, If the attacker has gained access to other accounts then it needs to be clarified so that we could take repository level mitigations as you've mentioned; Else most will just reset account passwords and be done with it.
Concentrator plants cost much more -- i.e., 3x -- than PV. They can still be useful for producing process heat instead of electric power.
I did that with my oldest daughter about 10 years ago. It was a great bonding experience. Neither of us are really gamers, but we have that experience in common.
Agreed a whole lot. Social media is the new whipping boy, but no one is willing to confront that much of what it shows us is a genuine & real reflection, is just connecting us more accurately to the real state of things.

I think there's an incredible resillience especially in youth to not get bogged down in or at least to tangle with & find peace with the sad scary backdrop of the world. When they have elememts of hope, when they have positive role models, when they see successful adults having ok lives. And frankly that's a challenge, period; there's just little community, few role models left. Big employers are better quality of life but it's deeply depersonalizing, being so deeply embedded somewhere odd deep deep inside an org chart, with only modest chances of getting to work hard for a long time & then at best retire. The new work world is opaque, dis-real.

Reality is already very well built, well estaished, and there's little available space or reward for trying stuff out & finding ourselves. We see less making life happen.

A lot of this difficulty is because of so many of these sad scary hopeless background factors. But rather than try to tackle endless symptoms as problems, i keep feeling like there's rootstriking we could be doing by trying to develop & support a more youthfully active world, by directly trying to support & enable people interested in taking chances in getting things started. In building the world. Not just working in it. Some real signs of positive life, creating role models of people who have real hands in shapimg their lives, have established good locus of controls: this is just wild spouting hypothesis, but I think that would make such a difference. Some signs of reality within reach.
The underscore naming convention is far from ubiquitous in either the Python or Julia communities.

The more practical indicator of a function being "public" is whether or not it appears in the published API documentation. Unlike Julia, Python projects are more likely to have complete documentation (or even documentation at all). So there is a better understanding of what "public" means in Python. Without docs, it's a guessing game.
The government's abject failure to invest in fixing climate change, or education, or health care for young people, or general human rights?

No, surely what's got teens down is congress not regulating social media hard enough. Thank you, senators.
That was then. Things have changed. Will buy BA to prove skin in the game and that I believe.
Any recommended sites for finding/hiring embedded talent? I had A LOT of trouble trying to find someone for a driver development project a few years ago.
Almost all of the USAF's cargo and tanker jets are made/supported by Boeing. Big jets are not Lockheed's competency; the C-5's development was a mess, and Lockheed hasn't been in the airliner business since the Tristar failed. Almost seeming to mirror this, Boeing seems to be useless at making fighter jets.

Also, the US Government would be wise to preserve their domestic airliner industry. Suppose the US decided to invade Iraq a third time and the EU responded with sanctions, cutting off US airliners from Airbus. This is the sort of situation Russian airlines faces today, but who's to say it couldn't one day happen to America if Boeing no longer existed? It's not as though America is any stranger to waging unpopular wars.
Again, you've link to a 40 minute podcast and are expecting to change minds.

Additionally, lots of people (and lots of people on the left) want to be more like Scandinavia - public health care, social safety nets, strong unions. Is that a problem too?
100% I think this is blind wishful thinking. Roe was dead the second Republicans got their justices.

How could one know about the history and beliefs of these justices, hear their questioning, see who has pushed them onto the bench, read their speeches, hell seen that their significant other believes in q crazy, and yet somehow think they'll change their mind or find some reasonable compromise.

You are correct in the danger of this blast radius.

This is TERRIFYING to me.

I'm skeptical here that this leak any differences though in that:

How can they make this ruling otherwise?

What changes could they make that don't set a scary and dangerous precedent?

without just flat out telling their truth that this is a religious decision and giving fetus' rights greater than actual living humans.

Their argument rests on their narrow view of "deeply rooted in the Nation’s history and traditions."

If that is the logic, as you say, what is left to protect states from outlawing gay marriage, contraception, anal sex, and SOOOO much more.

What moderation could be added to this draft on this fundamental issue?

It's disgusting to me that they argue they are making some ethical stand to overturn 'egregious' decision equating this to Plessy, using this historical traditions argument.

We all know what the constitution actually did say and even worse the practices of the time.

What does history and traditions even mean too. It's obvious to me and not even slightly veiled. Hint it probably doesn't include indigenous history or the history of any non-white, wealthy, christian males in power, nor any traditions created or changed within the last 50 years.

Because if the standard is the status quo of 200 years ago, they will either let a few extreme states say no to basically every right we have lived for the last 100+ years OR they will just be hypocritically veiling their true reasoning.
That’s really fascinating. I take tons of the stuff. Should I worry?
FSm … wonder any those Paip aima has any influence. And any lisp copy closed to that.
I think it was intentional, but I’m not entirely sure. Either way I loved it.
The latest report states about "a database" which is presumably the internal database. I don't want to speculate too much, but it seems attacher had access to internal systems. GitHub were the ones that detected and noticed it and reported to Heroku. Do not disagree that there should be more clarity, but best to follow up with Salesforce on that.
Can I PHP? – caniuse.com but for PHP features
Hardware support? Software compatibility?
Yup. The closer to the election this is announced the more impact it will have. We will surely get another wave but outrage goes away quick with short attention spans.

What if this leak did not come from within? What about the possibility of a certain country with a history of hacking institutions and using that information to create division at key moments? Seems like an obvious play. I have no evidence of this and the simple answer is more likely. Was my initial thought though;

Because working in politics myself, this doesn't seem optimal for either side imho.
A fair point actually. A RPi4 8GB isn't that expensive, which is why it was desirable. But then a case, a cooling solution, a powersupply all adds up..

And in the end it isn't a formfactor standardised and stackable solution.

You've sold me on this one. Thank you!
Status games are multiplayer, zero-sum, hierarchical, judged socially. Get grades, applause, titles now — emptiness later. Natural games are single player, positive-sum, internal, judged by nature/markets.

Seek wealth, not money or status. Wealth is having assets that earn while you sleep. Money is how we transfer time and wealth. Status is your place in the social hierarchy.

Understand that ethical wealth creation is possible. If you secretly despise wealth, it will elude you.

Ignore people playing status games. They gain status by attacking people playing wealth creation games.

I've wondered about that. Protecting the president's life isn't worth infinite investment, but I think the planes also serve as command posts during warfare, including nuclear war. That's worth quite a bit.
The joke is that F-35 is a considered a failed fighter jet project. But as a money laundering machine with no end in sight, the F-35 is a HUGELY successful endeavour.

The USA had a strong hand in blocking domestic aviation projects in countries that lost WWII.

I'm happy to see that a lot of countries are now slowly reaching viability of more diverse more or less modern jetliners. I wonder what disruption this will bring to the aviation market. It's clear that the duopoly of Boeing and Airbus is not a feasible approach to affordable aviation.

It will be even more important given that the EU wants to block more and more Russian imports. Which means that a block on titanium would further increase Airbus pricing.

Not sure where they got the number from, but every year the climates have become a tad more warmer with summer temperatures routinely being closer to 50C in India.

I've been hearing nearly all my life that coastal areas like Bangladesh, Mumbai, Kolkata, orissa etc are at a severe risk of drowning due to rising sea levels.

I've experienced first hand water scarcity in many parts of the country, but more prominently near the Deccan plateau due to rainfall failures and lakes, rivers drying up as a consequence of exploitation leading to crop failures.

Their 1 billion number doesn't seem too far off though if we take into account not many hospitable places have measures controlling resource usage and exploitation.
I don't think human hair has changed that much over the past 200,000 years.

It's certainly possible. But Parquet and Arrow are being built with each other in mind. I doubt the tradeoffs on storage, durability, and future-proofness are worth skipping the marginal overhead to load a Parquet file into memory.
How else would you implement addition? What is another API that can handle adding objects of various types, (Int8,16,32,64, BigInt, Complex for all of these, rational for all of these, and Float16, 32, 64) that doesn't totally suck?

If you consider the military the end customer, sure. But take a step back and the military is the just the defense vendor for the People. If the People don't need their president to be supplied with all that tech, then the military has over-engineered their solution to the People's "our president should be able to move places relatively quickly and relatively safely" problem.
