They do this with billboards. It's somehow cost effective to have a big truck that is nothing but a rolling billboard drive around the city all day. By definition that means that it's cheaper or somehow better than a fixed billboard on real estate.

Hiding messages in a spam folder is essentially ghosting. Email servers should reject messages that they consider spam.

I've run into countless problems because of my messages being marked as spam. The worse is that now it as become socially acceptable to ghost people, I never know who ghosted me, the mail server or the person! I've run into "I ignore your email, get the hint" a few times when thinking I was marked as spam and tried to contact people through other means.
Impressive!

There are already implementations of sample sorting that are much faster than c++ sort (but I don't recall how much faster). I'd be very interested in a comparison to some of those...

Also, since we are sorting integers, I'd also be interested to know how well a modern implementation of radix sort can be made.

Your argument seems to be in bad faith, but I'll bite. As a Swiss, OKAY! Whatever, so my life sucks 0.1% more in order for thousands of potential employees in the taxi service to get better living conditions as demanded by Swiss employment laws. What a proud "hurt" Swiss consumer I am. I make > $110k with just a single year of experience as a software developer, I can live super nicely and safe a ton of money. I'm also super happy and proud that retail and service workers get > 40k in this country, so they can live a decent life as well even if they didn't have the privileges to become highly educated and specialized.
Yeah for sure. Especially the "leaders" who need aces in their sleeves to perform. Those who lay everything out on the table have nothing to lose. They have enough self-respect to not have to stoop to that level. But the world is full of both these types at this level.
> And Greece is certainly called Ελλάδα inside, not the "Greek Democracy".

I assume you translated the "Ελληνική Δημοκρατία" of the parent comment somehow, but it is not correct. The actual translation is "Hellenic Republic", which is what is written in official documents (for example, on passport covers).

As you correctly point out, the state name (Hellenic Republic) is not always the country name (Hellas).
You could levy this argument against literally any tax Chicago institutes.
No point discussing hypotheticals. Uber drivers cannot set their own price. They cannot negotiate the destination. They cannot choose to reject certain customers. They have to follow strict guidelines for what car they can drive and how it should look. If they don't accept (or cancel after accepting) too many rides, they get penalized or even kicked off the service entirely. There may be a future where Uber alters its service enough to satisfy regulators, but it clearly isn't interested in going that route.
> Just to be contrary, is it not at all possible that such and such a feature "evolved" in all the relevant life forms at the same (more recent) time in response to changing external stimuli?

Depends. Joints can independently evolve. Knees are unlikely.

In other words, nothing is impossible. A structure that performs any given function could evolve independently even if it looks different. The exact same structure or molecule? Unless it's one of the simplest 'solutions' to a problem, it's very unlikely without a common ancestor.

Even things that should have one solution - like eyes - can lead to many different structures. Like our "backwards" retina which is not shared with octopi.

Yes, and this division makes it difficult for those of us who are economically left-wing, but feel that the modern incarnation of progressivism has lost the plot somewhat.

Especially because there is barely any representation anyway for the economic left. Instead, we have two right-wing to centre-right parties fighting over a socially conservative / socially progressive battlefield they've constructed instead. It's very frustrating.

It is really quite surprising how dominant shadow-cljs has become. I think this is a good thing overall (centralization of web frameworks) as web development is one of the more thorny "getting started" issues in Clojure.

IPv6 addresses are more plentiful. However, you don't assign reputation to an individual IPv6 address but rather to an IPv6 network prefix (a /64, or even /60). That gives roughly the same granularity as a single public IPv4 address: one ISP subscriber.

physically moving around is the trick.

standing or sitting perfectly still for long periods is terrible for mind and body.

i have a python program on my laptop that is typically running 35 minute sessions. then it locks my computer, requiring password unlock, AND locks the keyboard for 5-10 minutes, making that impossible immediately without a reboot.

so i get up. walk around. space out for a while. think about things. beverage refill. space out more. sit back down. type in password.

when i first started doing it, i’d be furious at times when my computer locked. now it’s as natural as breathing. would recommend.
Not having a certain section of society live below the poverty line and rely on government handouts to survive actually helps consumers in the long run even if you have to pay a couple dollars more for your taxi ride.

It wasn't the worst mistake that Bitkeeper made in its history. Bitkeeper is going to be an interesting historical footnote for the mistake of dropping the Linux kernel and subsequently prompting the creation of both Mercurial and git.

> Maybe we should be wrapping this up and looking for a new problem to fix?

I feel that we mostly are. It's barely an aside in these release notes and most of the comments are just people still antagonistic to the change, but at this point all the major git repo hosts have made the change for when you init new repos and even new base installs of git itself when you go to git init either have the new default or prompt you (depending on which distro you install, I believe). Like I said, "main" isn't the "perfect choice" but for most of the git tools builders (the major hosts, and git itself) it's good enough and has wide enough support it's "the winner" and has been for several months now. But the tools themselves are happy to let you still use the old default if you don't feel like migrating or personal choices if you don't like the new default. It's all "good enough", and not trying to be perfect.

Renaming branches is mostly just a folder rename, so what harm does it do to just rename the branches? (If it causes some small feeling of harm reduction/justice for those that do object to the old default name, isn't that reason enough?) I'm going to quietly rename branches when I see fit. I'm also not going to force anyone to rename branches if they don't feel like it. That seems to be where most of the tools have landed, no one's forcing the name change, many are suggesting it, but as an action itself it's barely a footnote in Release Notes.

At this point it seems increasingly silly to relitigate why we should stick with the old default instead of just shrugging and moving on to the new one. I don't think your rant was specifically designed to relitigate that, which is why I replied to yours specifically with added context that I thought you might find useful, but some of the other comments in the thread are more questionably about that. The decision has been made: by major corporations listening to their Diversity and Inclusion boards, by the git mailing list itself and even including the developer that chose "master" in the first place without any malicious intent behind it and in general more because of "momentum" than intent, etc. The remaining, recurring complaints seem more about political parties and "anti-virtue signaling" as much as anything technical. (Those same complaints suggest that renaming branches/folders is just "virtue signaling", so complaining about "virtue" as a goal seems it can only be "anti-virtue", right? Our language has gotten so corrupted by social media.)
I think we're going to find ourselves either quoting books about organized sports and military training, or re-inventing a bunch of wheels.

The complexity is brutal because of the star pattern (n! connections) but one thing about the star pattern is that it's an unweighted graph. When all of the weights are identical, that's the textbook definition of anarchy. Of course everything is a mess. Everyone is trying to be in charge while half of them are also trying not to be in charge and still get their way.

Same with Cybertruck and the Semi. They will come out eventually. It might be another 2-4 years, but they will happen.

Yes, I think that would be great, not only for drivers but also as an experiment to find true market rate for rides.
Async does have to be hard, sometimes, at least right now. Iterators, closures, selects, and more are IMHO hard, or absent, or not intuitive. I know these are being worked on-- thank you to the language developers.
Good points, thanks for providing the nuance.

Well… hmm. I taught my daughter how and when to do that by that age. You never know. That could end up saving a life. She knows not to do it frivolously. This does not seem too advanced a concept for a kindergartner.

That said, intercom-like internal system Bertrand built seems to be much cooler than having the real phone.

It is amazing how much better OpenPilot is. On the highway it is unbeatable and also able to recognize stationary objects like cars and motorbikes.
I remember being blown away by how intense and visceral the experience was, it probably helped I played it on my uncle's top tier 486 with a great sound system. Whenever I look at screen shots these I'm kind of shocked how pixelated the sprites were, I guess it wasn't a concern at the time.

I mean.. in both cases you would have to wait for the radiation to dissipate. Have people remain indoors and wait a few days for the cloud to pass. In the case of contamination of a water source, you would want to filter the water before drinking until the radioactive fallout burns itself out. Plus water is exceptionally good at stopping radiation so a nuclear accident into a body of water is like the best case scenario.

Nuclear radiation isn’t a boogeyman, and isn’t the most dangerous type of contamination by a long shot. I would be way more worried about a chemical spill or a industrial accident that released toxic gas.

You're supposed to get your IPv6 prefix from your ISP's allocation, not directly from the regional registry. Simplifying the routing tables with hierarchical address assignment was one of the major selling points for the larger address size in IPv6. If everyone gets their own prefix independent from their ISP then the core Internet routing tables will continue to grow ever more complicated.

Off the top of my head, consumer vehicles globally contribute 5-6% of Climate Change-causing emissions. If you'd care to look, you'll see this pales in comparison to the major contributors, electricity generation, agriculture, deforestation, oil drilling, etc.

If we could overnight stop the major contributors, such as industrial processes, your ice car just wouldn't matter.

Maybe think of it this way? There are those of us who want to help but for whatever reasons can only feasibly do so though donations, if you were to accept our charity it would allow us to be part of the solution even if only a little.

In any event, may God bless you and may you succeed beyond your wildest dreams.

About four years ago I started pushing for MFA for everyone. Two years ago we finally got approved to enable it for all staff. Last year we got approval for all students.

Now the CEO wants us to remove MFA because students are quitting over this (although everyone else I talk to hasn't heard a single student quit from it). I have to find legislation that requires MFA or he will ask to remove it.

I'm thinking this will be the hill I die on...

Sorry, that's my fault. I said 'bacteria' but the studies were on food-borne pathogens on surfaces. So spreading, for instance, a little e-coli from the pork chop you cooked properly, killing everything, to the asparagus you steamed by touching the same surfaces after 'cleaning' them and not accomplishing your goal.
If we're being strictly anthropological Western 'racism' is a type of caste system but all caste systems have the trait of assigning better or worse outcomes to disparate breeding pools, however defined, and re-enforcing breeding rights on some level. Almost all human societies are caste systems of some sort since the introduction of farming at least, and from a more modern perspective is a composite of multiple, simultaneous caste systems (usually referred derisively as 'isms').

This line of reasoning is why systems collapse. You are proposing adding further regulation on top of a mountain of existing regulation without considering the problem is probably bottlenecks caused by existing regulation.
