The one caveat to this is that it's relatively easy to do large amounts of dynamic memory allocation/copying in C++ which can run worse than a scripted language. Especially if you std::shared_ptr all the things, or do lots of things with std::string.

I wrote a parsing algorithm in Java and C++, and the Java one was absurdly faster than the C++ one at one point because I was using std::vectors all over the place, so any time I needed to store an attribute in one of those it was doing memory allocation that was way slower than Java's memory allocation and I wasn't getting a lot of the benefit of C++ because of the memory indirections being similar to the Java version. Similarly doing a lot of += with std::strings will utterly destroy your performance due to all the allocations, deallocations, and copying.

Expanding on strings a bit more: There's a really interesting attribute of a language like C++ versus one that has a GC and immutable strings. Because the memory lifetime is managed for you in a GCed language, there is effectively no need to actually copy string memory when handing it off to other libraries. Counter to that, because libraries have no idea what the lifetime of a string will be in C++, they effectively always have to copy strings in order to not have huge memory bugs. This actually leads to more performant code in the GCed language in this specific case due to there being less copying, without having some way to either modify the source of the other library or tell it in some way that the lifetime of the memory will always be good when it wants to access it. I think Rust lifetimes allow for similar optimization because it shouldn't compile if the memory gets deallocated while something else has a reference to it. Just an interesting observation I noticed a little while ago when working on heavy string processing code.

Yet another example of justice for me, but not for thee.

A smaller content creator might not have even overturned a false DMCA claim, let alone get information about the copyright troll submitting it.
My point was that the old house is still very energy inefficient compared with new construction. The rehab process was also very energy intensive and created nearly as much waste as a tear-down.

The beautiful hand-carved crown moulding and stairs are nice, but not worth outrageous heating bills.
Okay, so they don't actually already do it, but they could do it.

How would you keep track of who currently has ownership? How do you make sure I don't sell ownership to 5 people, or keep using it myself? Do I need to hire a lawyer each time?

Yes, this can be done without the blockchain. But also, does it matter to you if the code is in SQL or the blockchain? The blockchain is just a technology. (I do think the environmental impact is worth considering, for the record.)
Not "a salary", but a Jane Street salary and resume cred. Otherwise you just won't find that many takers.
‘The Socratic Method’ Review: Let Us Reason Together
Why a meaningful life is impossible without suffering
How would two different non-bat animals shed two different (but closely-related) bat viruses, in a market with no bats, and far away from the bat caves where related viruses are documented? And further, manage this with no evidence of any other animals infected with related viruses in that region, nor along the trade routes any such animals/viruses must have followed?

Those were the two luckiest bat-viruses ever!

On the other hand, the research lab across town had collected hundreds of such bat viruses from far away - suspiciously never fully catalogued.

EcoHealth belatedly reported in late 2021 to the NIH, its funder that it had already, prior to May 2019:

• created a new, chimeric SHC014-WIV1 virus that was more virulent in human tissue than the (relatively benign) natural WIV1 virus

• took a natural virus that was already highly deadly, MERS, & added new binding sites

You can read an overview from The Intercept at <https://theintercept.com/2021/10/21/virus-mers-wuhan-experim...>, or a (partially-redacted) suspiciously-late EcoHealth report to the NIH at <https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/21089573-priority-gr...> which describes these experiments.

Note also that per The Intercept, an EcoHealth spokesman had previously denied any such MERS gain-of-function experimentation had occurred - claiming instead it was only "suggested as an alternative and was not undertaken".

So: EcoHealth lied.

What if someone's secret budget, or pre-grant investigational work, had helped WIV do exactly the FCS addition they'd already asked for funding to do? That'd be a sufficient, and straightforward, way to get a SARS-CoV2-like virus from less-human-adapted viruses in nature.

And while this route isn't proven – perhaps because those involved have been suspiciously uncooperative – this hypothetical origin has more supporting evidence than "luckiest bat viruses ever snuck to Wuhan from a thousand miles away, zoonosed in Wuhan twice in rapid succession, leaving no sick animals or people anywhere else, despite a giant search".
Thomas is champing at the bit to overturn gay marriage, civil rights, and other civil liberty guarantees. He has indicated as much in his writings.
I believe you’re underselling how straightforward this is, and you’ve actually already got it a bit wrong:

> covers all possible situations where the pregnant woman's life would be in danger

The woman’s life being in danger is the second clause. The first is that an abortion is necessary to address it.

It is a mighty task to prove that an abortion was necessary, and empowered citizens can frivolously bring lawsuits.
Opreation Rescue was by far the highest profile activist group in that moment. They were not radicals shunned by more moderate pro life people. They had enormous support.

Wichita is stuck in Kansas, a conservative state yes, but the average person you'll meet there is very similar to who you'd meet in any of the major metro areas. They are captive to a conservative rural minority in a microcosm of the same effect at national scale. "Go to crazy places" is a completely inadequate deflection. You know it.

My family's church went into schism in response to the Tiller murder. The strongest condemnation on the anti murder side was basically "they shouldn't have done that in a church." I cannot recall a single person out of hundreds that condemned the murder (or bombing) itself directly. The closest is my father, who maintains a "abortion should be outlawed except if rape" perspective. Additional useful information here is he failed to know my older brother was sexually abusing me in his own house.

I know "what if" style contrarian takes are an addiction on this forum, but please, do not engage in hypotheticals on this issue if you are not actually familiar and plugged in. You are doing evil purely in the service of some forum warrior "what if I actually have the smart take here" nonsense. These people know they're hypocrites drowning in dissonance. It's central to their mindset. Not only do they not care, they will double down on it every time.

I'm surprised you compare it to a junk bond.

It sounds pretty much like a CD aka "Certificate of Deposit" which is a product sold by banks.

Is there an entire generation that doesn't know anyone who ever bought a CD from a bank?

These days they are a joke, but still shown on bank web pages.

Here is the list of rates from a regional bank near me:

5 Year CD 0.10%
4 Year CD 0.10%
3 Year CD 0.10%
2 Year CD 0.10%
18 Month CD 0.10%
12 Month CD 0.10%
They tend to be rather less egregiously sleazy overall. Note the BS that gets slipped into large bills without review, for example.
Hiring people with low fluid intelligence (-2 stdev change with age) and people with low intelligence (sorry bootcampers, you would already have a quantitative degree if you had a high qualitative IQ)—-what a solution
Also the Pierce case that prevented laws requiring kids to attend public school. I'd love to know how many federalist society members send their kids to private schools.
Unfortunately, news agencies think this is just curious, so most ignore.

And my own resources to store/index such things are very limited, looks like my local copy lost when my old hdd broken.

So if I will find exact links and they alive, I will write. For now I could only say, I'm very serious, this is not fake or joke.
I think CFS is also connected to the mind (don't remember correctly). You can see a presentation by the same guy: Dr. Chris Palmer - 'The Ketogenic Diet in Neurology and Psychiatry' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUtwr_6sFw4
I would have no problem with NFTs if they were simply billed as a useless "collectible" thing sitting in an account that you can use as an excuse to show off how you donated to an artist. But from that perspective, you don't need blockchains or smart contracts; the only thing needed is a donations platform like Patreon. The ridiculous nonsense about how NFTs are going to be "rare unique property" and "an investment" is a pure grift. It is shameful to see artists repeating those lies just to make a dollar. You are getting nothing from them. At least with trading cards you technically do get a picture you can look at, and maybe you could use them for enjoyment to play a game. With NFTs you are literally getting nothing. They are designed to seize the minds of people who have that "collector" personality and take advantage of them.
How did you find these so fast? Do you glow in the dark?
~25% of House Dems crossed the aisle to vote on a Republican amendment to the ACA to ban federal funding of abortion[1]. While that specific amendment failed in the Senate, it still forced a handshake deal that Obama would issue an EO to that effect.

It seems very unlikely that the ACA could have been passed if it enshrined abortion rights.

You underestimate the time value of not having a pandemic today, as opposed to perhaps hundreds of years in the future. Serial passage through humanized mice is not exactly something that happens in nature.
You can see the rings with a small, cheap telescope but they will be a fuzzy blob. Good glass of large diameter is not cheap but it makes a huge difference in the experience.

How do I know that some code is beautiful? And how will one know that it will always stay beautiful? Correct and efficient is one thing. Beautiful? This is off topic but topics like this grinds my gears as it’s purely subjective.
So like swatting with Google in the role of incompetent and heavily armed police?
The WIV was in Wuhan due to the proximity of coronaviruses and other bat-borne diseases like rhabdovirusus.. this line of logic is akin to blaming shark research centers in South Africa for nearby attacks.
> When we come out of this downturn in a year or two

That's a pretty big assumption right there.
I agree with the suggestion to go a abroad but honestly without knowing more, your political background might not be as much as a liability as you are concerned about in academics. I'm not saying it won't be an issue, but if you're broad enough in applying, you'll likely find somewhere either sympathetic to you or willing to tolerate it.

The bigger issue I think is whether you can make a case for your interest and skills in academic research. I'm not saying you can't, or that it's too difficult, because I know nothing about you really, but my guess is that will be a major thing at most places.

Age might also be an issue entering a doctoral program. It shouldn't be but it could be.

If you can contact people whose research you are genuinely interested in and get feelers it might help.

A lot of this is really unpredictable. I hope it works out for you.
Another part of the pro-life/conservative mindset is that positive rights (freedom to) and negative rights (freedom from) tend to be treated very differently, leading to no inherent contradiction between believing in the unborn child’s right to not be killed, and believing that same child has no right to free care.
That's reading an awful lot into an unattributed quote, which includes a direct refutation attributed quotes right above it.

It's clear that there have been moratoriums on GoF without stopping "all of virology," so whatever was meant by this "wink wink nudge nudge" is really unclear.

Also, in the prior paragraph, the reporter talks about "details of proposed experiments being secret" but that's just standard practice for literally all government funding of science. As if they shouldn't be secret for some reason in this case.

If this the sort of weak sauce, I mean, come on.

Just a bunch of weird insinuations, and having read more, saying there's "omerta" on this seems even less likely.

How about at least a little bit of real meat?
Do you listen to broadband radio?

do you go to church?

"hate path" isn't an unreasonable idea...

let me break it down:
(bit of info first)
namshubs: know what they are? what about mei? how's your ancient cerulean? ever read snowcrash?
well, in the (fiction) book, Neil does a pretty decent job on the history section... but he really hit the nail on the head with that allegory with namshubs... so you see... in the book - people were presented with a digital video - that when watched - rewrote your brain and had you speaking in tongues (which has some nifty brain chemistry science around, but that's besides the point). a namshub was a 'spell' or more accurately - a piece of information that was crafted to alter our perceptions...

I posit that concept of namshubs (pieces of information designed to program people) have been weaponized by AI around 2012 or before by Cambridge Analytica during that whole deal.

so now we have people designing information not to be truthful - but instead optimizing for another property... stickiness.

so how do you make an idea sticky...

anger...

far and above the most effective emotional button you can press to bypass our filters of reason and logic... is hate.

hate makes you act.

and to be clear - this has been going on since before 2012 of course, but that's a significant turning point as that's the first known use of AI augmented namshubs...

we are in a 5th generational war - tech and mental - the culture war is real: and an army has been bred to fight on a side for it (because every child is sacred and is a gift from god to fight god's war). reasonable people don't do that.

but it's an arms race...

the democrats picked up on this method... eventually too the progressives will succumb to the sedative allure of optimizing for data retention rather than truth. thus is the nature of always needing a bigger stick to keep the peace.

point is - 'hate path' objectively works - push on the hate button of other people to get them to give you money. it's a fucking problem...

I don't think people are stupid - I think our information is carefully curated to induce engagement (i.e. rage) - and that is having an adverse affect on society as a whole...

I think the fact that I have to be careful of diction I use so as to not use 'trigger words' that invoke a kneejerk response to arguments that have been parroted by the media is solid evidence the namshub model is of use...

I'm not even saying accurate - just useful.
Indeed, the opposition to only some substantive due process decisions, and not others, seems a bit political.

My problem with practice questions is they ignore practical realities. Instead of shrinking the problem they artificially shrink the solution space by telling you to ignore those problems (sometimes explicitly).
If it's truly a lay off, I would simply tell everyone. We're going to lay off X% of the workforce. If you want to voluntarily quit, we will provide you with X severance. Otherwise, we will pick and choose. Those that can find new work will do so fast. To be least cruel, you want most of your employees to find new work ASAP. That is the least cruel outcome. Thus simply telling everyone and letting people seek out employment before hand is the best way IMO. If it comes down to too many people leaving, then you can start counteroffering, or better yet, take the savings.
Where have I put my thumb on the zoonosis scale?

> The clickable emblem link was sent to PerfectNazo1@gmail.com and during the chaos of fake notice campaign, a YouTuber called ‘Lord Nazo’ was hit with fraudulent DMCA notice, sent by the Wiland Google account.

> Apparently angered by this injustice, Lord Nazo fired a DMCA counternotice back at YouTube in which he criticized the wave of fake notices and claimed his video was not infringing since it was a “transformative case of fair use.”
Sounds like they had a preexisting condition with their heads even before the explosion.

I ran the C version of this benchmark using llvm-mos's Clang for the 6502. The results:

21.4 seconds
5793 bytes

Which is middle of thepack for the Z80 benchmarks, but well below the 6502 ones. We're also using a slightly tweaked embedded printf written in C, so this could probably be improved somewhat there, sans any compiler changes.
Sounds like your friends are pretty extreme outliers. I don't know a single LGBTQ person who votes for Republicans... and I know a lot. I suspect it's less than 10%, maybe less than 5%.
I know some of these words...is the idea that acetate is the end result of photosynthesis, and they're just skipping that step? Or is there a different metabolic pathway that plants have which accepts acetate if it is in the environment but falls back to photosynthesis if it is not?
Why do you make up new terms for upload and download?
If a claim has massive implications, then it would be even more irresponsible to not recognize that possibility. The world can't learn from the past if we're not able to even consider what might have happened in the past.
That's beyond despicable and should take this company of the list of companies to be hired by for any self respecting prospective employee. Utterly ridiculous.
> If you're talking about not just "women who have sex" but "~women~ people who have sex without regard for the children whom they may conceive", then yeah I'm against that kind of sex.

The best way to ensure that children are treated with appropriate regard is to ensure that fewer unwanted children are born.
For anyone who doesn't get the subtext here: Clarence Thomas' wife is white, so it's pretty convenient that the due process decision that happens to affect him directly is not on the chopping block.
Coinbase is being very poorly led. They haven't innovated at all and they're confused as to who their target customers are. The brief mainstream retail rush has thrown them off.

The target customers for crypto are other investors, degens, and gamblers. Most of the money in crypto is house money, i.e. money that was made from existing crypto investments. Just see the transaction volume on OpenSea (decentralized ETH house money) vs CoinBase's NFT marketplace. Retail neither cares nor has the money for shitty jpegs.

FTX understands the target market. Which is why it has focused so aggressively on futures. You can short/long practically everything on FTX with leverage. That's the investor/degen/gambler class - the bulk of money in crypto.

Binance doesn't do anything extremely well, but whatever it does, it simply works. Withdrawals work, support is clumsy but works, perps work, spot trading works, even their awful chain, as full of scams as it might be, works.
These ones.
Look carefully, what you post. This is not accounted inflation and gdp change, which are much larger, than these numbers.
The GOP now has in place in several red/swing states legislatures that are ready to overrule electoral college votes determined by the popular vote and handing it over to those determined by republican legislatures. Lots of states have promoted Big Lie proponents to the highest election positions in their states, they now have a 6-3 super majority SCOTUS who will back up these decisions in the next Presidential election. Once that happens authoritarian Trumpists will take power because they have control of the military via Presidential power. If you can't see that then you've been living under a rock. That's when the American experiment fails.
If were to move to Europe would, you recommend Switzerland or Lichtenstein to avoid egregious taxes?
I've occasionally been interested in playing with clipboard managers, but I've always been stopped by the fact that at least a few times a day, I copy something I don't want a persistent record of (e.g. a password). How do other people deal with this? Do you just accept that your clipboard manager will save copies of all your passwords? Do you exclusively use an auto-type solution that doesn't use copy/paste? Something else?
He got legitimately DMCA stricken, then he manufactured a campaign of illegitimate DMCA strikes and hoped he could get his own strike overturned as part of the reversal of illegitimate strikes.
LaunchBar[0], which predates Alfred but is similar in function, also has a fantastic searchable clipboard manager which includes a feature that I've not been able to find in any other clipboard manager: a push/pop stack.

With this feature you can, for example, copy a bunch of different items from a web page on to the stack, then paste them sequentially in a web form and pop them from the stack so that they're no longer in the clipboard history. With this workflow there's no hopping back and forth between pages, you do all of the copying at once in one place and all of the pasting at once in the other. It all happens via keyboard shortcuts, no interaction with the LaunchBar UI at all.

This feature is what's been keeping me on LaunchBar for almost 15 years now. Alfred looks great, but without this push/pop feature in the clipboard manager I'd have a hard time switching.

CDs are FDIC insured. If the bank goes under, you keep your funds (up to the insurance limit). Cryptocurrency accounts "staked" to a given exchange don't enjoy that benefit, as many people are now learning.

I'd also recommend anyone shop around for CD rates. Those are hardly representative of what you can get at, say, Ally. (2.75% APY on a 5 year)
