If you take the word "thread" to mean only "OS thread", then of course you are right, in the most boring way.

If you agree that Project Loom virtual threads are threads, consider this. When pluggable executor is available, you start a few of virtual threads, confining them in the UI thread. Semantically, how are they different from calling async functions in JavaScript?

>> abstraction allowing programmers to write sequences of code that can run and pause.

> No. Callbacks are not a form of threads. Async is not a form of threads.

Simply a "No" adds nothing to the conversation. Do you not see that they are "sequences of code that can run and pause"? Or do you not agree with the wider meaning of the word "thread"?
I don’t agree with the idea of banning kids from the internet. But I understand and even empathize with those who are tempted by the idea. Like going to live with the Amish.
Interesting. Never heard of that game. Looks interesting, but moreover it reminds me of another game I haven't thought about in years that hasn't come up in discussion yet: Spaceward Ho! Anyone remember that one?

Wow, what a remarkable offering; they give free users even better service than their paying customers! It's so benevolent of them to give such amazing service away and definitely not use this totally-better product as a beta to ship updates before it gets to the stable users.

/s

Edit: Seriously, though; if a company has 2 almost-identical products and claims that the free product is equal or better than the free product, they're either lying to the free users or defrauding the paying users.

Very counterintuitive. I understand how the proportional space of an n-ball bounded in an n-cube can go to zero, but I don't understand how the volume of an n+1-ball can be of a smaller volume than an n-ball.

I genuinely think the Julia community should have guidelines on how to act on a public forum when advocating for Julia.

I've had so many instances of being rubbed the wrong way from Julia folk. In some ways, it is as annoying as the RIIR folk, but it just happens to be a smaller number of people.

I for one am excited to see the GIL-ectomy work come to the stage that it is today. I followed Larry Hasting's work back in 2016/2017, and I'm glad to see Sam has taken the mantle with Larry's blessing.
No it isn't. There may be some aspects of it that would have good results. But there would also be aspects that would have poor results.

Pretending that larger population centers will make better electoral decisions and that those decisions will not ignore the legitimate needs of more rural areas reeks of unjustified superiority and is unbecoming.

Hugs, I'm not gonna make this about me, just so sorry you had to go through this too. It does take time to recover to the point where we're functional again; but prolonged periods of fight/flight, and no safe place, does something to our psyche as well as physical health.

Not that your general point is wrong, but I don't think "flying cars" are intended to replace airliners. They're supposed to be for travel within a city. Complicated calculations for route planning and refueling seem much less relevant for that case.
Fair point. My ideal model for cities is what Germany does, lots of cities with a population of ~600k, medium density, lots of choice and good connections between cities.
You are way simplifying the studies. From what I understand:

+ We are pretty sure acupuncture, done correctly, won't cause any harm

+ It is on par or sometimes slightly exceeds placebo

+ Sometimes "things that seem like acupuncture but are not acupuncture" also give the same kind of results.. even though they shouldn't?

Maybe I've gotten something wrong here, but as far as I can tell, Wix and Squarespace are entirely closed-source hosted solutions. This might be a small and hard to verify decline, but it still makes me kind of sad to see more things moving from something you at least can host yourself if you want to something entirely proprietary. Wordpress may have its warts, but you can still actually get the code, and it still works mostly okay and can easily be hosted yourself in a wide variety of ways. If you want to hack it to do something weird or crazy, you actually can. IMO that beats locking everything into some company's system that you may not be able to extract or change.

People are delaying marriage and iirc more people are foregoing it entirely. People are having children later and having fewer children and living longer, so there are more empty-nesters. Empty-nesters may be a couple or single adult whose spouse has died.

There has been a decline in households with four or more people and a rise in households with one to three people, but our housing stock tends to be geared towards nuclear families with a breadwinner father, homemaker mother and 2.5 children.

Last I checked, average new homes post-2000 were more than twice the size of new homes in the 1950s and held one less person on average. So you are seeing couples with one child buy four bedroom homes and turn the extra bedrooms into an office and a playroom or hobby space.

Meanwhile, the poorest of the poor are often unable to find housing at all. We have a lot of homeless people.
The last big section of the article is dedicated specifically to this idea:

> But there are other economic relationships that might have similar effects. One of these is income level - as incomes rise, demand curves shift to the right, which (all else being equal) should also cause an increase in prices. So we should expect an increase in housing prices to be partly driven by rising incomes, especially when the supply is fairly inelastic (as it is for housing.)

>Equality feels like persecution to those hold all the privileges

This is carte blanche to be racist to anyone defined as privileged by the socially/politically dominant group. You're playing with fire. Only a matter of time before, as in the past, the ire is directed at you and the people you think you're fighting for. How far down the privilege totem pole are you?

It's marxism through and through, except the proles and bourgeoise have been replaced with racial classes. I encourage you to at least read the communist manifesto and see the direct parallels, right down to the language of "oppression".

Sortition!

I really do think it is the only way. Everything else gets distorted.

People say, well, most people are stupid. But I'm not so sure. Juries are a sort of pseudo-sortition, and they actually fare pretty well (far better, I would argue, than legislative or even judicial bodies).

I think many positions would be admirably served by random appointment.
The ratio of the volume of the sphere to the volume of the enclosing cube (the proportion of the box that it takes up, or the probability that a randomly chosen point inside the box is in the ball) is dimensionless, though. It's not dependent on the size of the cube.
> As for mocking, you don’t have to rely on Jest’s inbuilt mocking libraries and you can use the ones you like better.

I was preparing myself to reply “thanks for the kind and receptive response, but…” I’m glad I read further before drawing a conclusion.

> The good news is that we have never been shy about making breaking changes and we are working on cleaning the house and making many legacy components optional, all while bringing the existing community with us.

> If you care more about raw performance and ES module support and less about isolation, check out the jest-light-runner

It looks likely this addresses the problem I was going to raise! I never wanted to use module mocking in the first place, and never did. But Jest at the time I used it didn’t give me an option to opt out of its isolation model and still imposed all of the problems whether I used module mocks or not. I think this (runner which doesn’t support it) is a great thing to provide, and yeah if you’re okay with breaking changes it’s a much more sensible default.

Thank you for not just the kind and receptive response, but also for showing clear direction from problems I raised! I’ll keep tinkering on my test framework as a hobby project because there are already major perf and semantic wins in it. But this definitely makes Jest a more viable day work consideration for me.

Edit to clarify: I agree isolation between tests is crucial, and isolating modules is an important part of that. It’s just… not what Jest is actually doing. It wasn’t when I was using CJS, and it’s much more challenging to mitigate with ESM. Jest very reasonably clears the require cache between tests, but that’s actually breaking isolation when modules have private state initialized on require. If I remember correctly the ESM solution is the same as my naive one: tack a query parameter on when re-importing.

Realistically, the only current viable solution to isolation is worker threads and WASM/NAPI hacks. Hopefully better isolation primitives are coming up through the standards process.
I studied English alongside CS and was really into the creative nonfiction genre in my university days. I remember really enjoying "Close to the Machine" by Ullman, might be worth checking out.
Even in traditional Western classical music, you have triplets, 5-lets, 7-lets, etc. (I have a flute piece which opens with a 57-let iirc—I forget the exact number but it was large enough that there’s no way that any flautist could actually play it as written).

Tempo also plays a big role. The soundtrack to Across the Universe includes slowed-down versions of “I want to hold your hand” and “Blackbird” which become almost unrecognizable thanks to a change of tempo (and instrumentation).

Rhythmic variations can dramatically change the perception of a piece. I used to play a choral piece by Poulenc (“O Magnum Mysterium”) with a swung jazz rhythm and it takes a very different character when you do that (see also countless jazz reinterpretations of Beatles and other pop songs).

One other piece of fun trivia: The rhythm of Hall of the Mountain King is exactly the same as the rhythm of Mary had a Little Lamb.

That's a bit of a tired and somewhat misleading argument.

Take a look into the kernel-firmware repo, and you will see a tremendous amount of binary firmware blobs. For example the Intel micro-code blobs are protected by ~7 layers deep of encryption, wifi drivers may have government regulatory issues with sharing firmwares in anything but binary form. So let's please drop the evil binary blob nonesense...

The kernel does in fact accept small or large binary blobs, and some of them even come with source code...So I guess the key takeaway is to look at what separate the Nvidia driver/firmware from all those other binary firmware loading drivers.

Hint, it has more to do with hiding the program interface, and using abstractions within abstractions.

Consider the cost to the community, not just the people being priced out.

The first people we lose are often those who have been here the longest, contributed greatly to the community, but are on a fixed income and cannot afford the tax increase.

Case in point, we’re losing our volunteer fire department’s rookie coordinator and training captain because he’s been priced out of the area.

He’s elderly, been a member of the department for decades, is hugely valuable and has a trove of institutional knowledge.

I’m glad he’s able to move elsewhere with the payout he’s getting from his home, but the loss to our community is enormous.

How is arbitrarily forcing people out of the communities they’ve built the moral (or constructive!) thing to do?

No, it is enough that massively expanding your property wont increase your tax. That way you can build a lot more homes on your land and therefore become a lot richer without paying more taxes. There is no reason for the tax to be higher overall than before, its just what it incentivises. You might not take this opportunity but others will.

Some people might pay more tax, if lets say your area develops into a dense city core over 40 years your land will now be worth many millions, at that point your tax would be comparable to the skyscrapers around you. Which is reasonable since you are hurting the progress of the city at that point, and if you sell your property you will have so much money that you can easily move slightly outside the boundaries of the city core. But in most cases you wont strike it rich with your land getting worth that much.

> Very counterintuitive. I understand how the proportional space of an n-ball bounded in an n-cube can go to zero, but I don't understand how the volume of an n+1-ball can be of a smaller volume than an n-ball.

It can't be, in the same sense that it's not true that π square meters (the area of a unit circle) is less than (4/3)π cubic meters (the volume of a unit sphere); they are simply not comparable quantities. What is true, as wging very nicely put it (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31349002), is that the (n + 1)-ball (of radius 1) eventually takes up a smaller fraction of the (n + 1)-cube (of side 2) than the n-ball does of the n-cube.

I agree that this is still probably sufficiently unintuitive that the best one can do is to argue why one shouldn't disbelieve it, not to try to make it intuitive; but nonetheless I will share one of the closest things I've seen to an explanation, which is that the number of corners in a cube grows exponentially with the dimension of the cube, so that, sooner or later, the cube is "mostly corners"—and the ball does not poke into the corners.
Hi! That's a great question that we've heard more than once. We're compiling the data, and so far we simply don't have enough data around water flossing vs string to draw any conclusions. In general, it definitely appears that any flossing is better than none with a caveat:

There are flossing "responders" and "non-responders" that we are looking into and hopefully we'll have another post to share soon. It appears that the oral microbiome may be able to predict whether flossing (or perhaps water flossing) actually improves your health because for some it does not have as much of an effect as others.

No. These junk "remedies" like acupuncture absolutely have risks. You can get infections from acupuncture. Your acupuncture "provider" could easily infect you with bloodborne diseases.

People have even been documented to have died from acupuncture https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2951167/

The benefits are zero. Potentially living with a chronic disease like Hepatitis C because of a lazy provider that reuses a needle or contaminates it in some way, is a serious risk.

There's also the fact that by engaging in these activities you perpetuate junk science, just like Q anon people, just like climate change deniers, it's all the same insanity.
Traditionally, the backing currency is a well-established fiat currency such as USD, which in turn is backed by an international economy full of buyers. But here, I was specifically talking about the scenario where you contractually force buyers and sellers to maintain the peg. If the backing currency doesn't have such a contract, then buyers would still be willing to buy it for a sufficiently low price, like what's happening now to UST.

There's a certain appeal to that too however. As long as the advantage/disadvantage isn't overwhelming anyway. Perhaps it would help to encourage more diverse communities or give a disadvantage to political groups that isolate themselves while giving an advantage to groups who demonstrate they're both willing and capable of living and working in diverse environments. It might even help to reduce the amount of political and cultural divide.

But, when 6M+ people die of a virus that happened to originate near a sloppily-run virology lab with lead scientists making $30,000 who just happen to be researching gain-of-function on the same virus, it's natural to expect that some people will at least want to know more. Right? Not even circumstantial evidence is enough to go down that path?
> the land that was historically eastern Poland isn't part of Russia now -- it's part of Ukraine and Belarus

The Belarussian / Polish border today is almost exactly the border between Kingdom of Poland and Grand Duchy of Lithuania within the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. So "historically eastern Poland" is not right there. Some like to think of the whole Commonwelth as Poland, which really dominated there. But in this case whole Belarus and Ukraine are "eastern Poland".

That's what poles tried to restore when got chance to recreate their state after WWI, as I understand. The full commonwealth. But only got to the borders we know as the pre-1939 Poland.

BTW, Ukraine is mostly the part of the GDL annexed by the Kingdom of Poland during the Union of Lublin. The todays Belarus / Ukraine border goes by this line.

There are overlap maps in wikipedia:

Overturning Roe v. Wade doesn't undo a law. The problem is there's no law in the first place. It overturns a precedent. It's the judicial branch's equivalent of countermanding an Executive Order with a new Executive Order.
