> Mandating that address 0 cannot be used places more constraints on what the browser engine can do when it compiles the module, and for some languages compiled to WASM this feature may not even be necessary.

How do you figure? Just say the WASM heap starts at 0x1000 instead of 0x0 or whatever. Bam, done & done. The browser engine is already incorporating offsets to all the memory accesses anyway, the "real" addresses do not start at 0x0 of course.

Edit:
> EDIT: As for your own edit, since you cannot do arithmetic on a pointer in Java, this does make it easier. NULL could be set to -1,

Well, you'd use something a bit farther away so that the internal engine also doesn't need to worry about small offsets from null (you're not always dereference 0x0 itself, but rather a field "nearby" after all)

And yes Java can do that. So can C, for that matter, by defining NULL to be something else. But if everyone has to just reimplement guard pages in the upper 4GB address range, it gets back to why the hell didn't WASM just standardize that like every other MMU-based system? Why did WASM be an unfriendly snowflake?

And of course once an mmap-like happens you lose your guard page safety. The runtime could still use the address range you hoped was invalid for something valid. You really need the runtime to guarantee the dead zone. Which a simple heap offset would have trivially achieved.

Either the engineers goddamned well knew that would happen, in which case they share the blame, or they are naive idiots, in which case they shouldn't be working on life-critical projects... and therefore share the blame. The same applies to any other technology.

I love types. But as first class citizens. I started in Pascal and C. And they’re one of the reasons I’m enjoying Go for the kind of work I did with Python. Usually, if it compiles, its right.

I’d be cool with a statically typed flavor that wouldn’t allow for the type gymnastics.

But that’s gross with the None situation where you’d have to fall back to magic values vs ‘nil’ or similar concepts. None was one of my favorite things back when other languages didn’t address it.

And a lot of my opinion is probably based on the fact that I came to the language in the late 90s from a Pascal/C background. Probably just getting to old :).
I typically see it happen in the other direction myself. Business folks describe the problem/product and engineering team says “oh yea we can do that, we’ll need K8s” when they do not, in fact, need K8s

Chances are that after a certain age you won't have the mental or physical energy to even desire to do all that much.

I know quite a few people who retired quite well off and instead of traveling the world spending all this money as they thought they mostly just watch a lot of TV and sit on their phone. They don't even spend their social security check a month and they are perfectly content with this life.

Many people have confused the reality of old age with marketing from retirement firms and mutual funds.

More generally, compare worldwide box with domestic. There are films that gross 10x oversees selling "American blockbusters" that all but flop in the US. It's why so many film franchises have felt so puzzling, disconnected, and out of place over the past twenty years.

Hollywood doesn't make film for Americans any more than the baubles at tourist traps give insight into local life.
The most freeing moment with k8s for me was integrating that no, you don't need to write all that YAML (or JSON), and going into generating manifests from other formats - in my case, usually Jsonnet with mix of libraries both public and private which quickly embedded knowledge specific to our setup.

I think one of the best things I ever heard from another colleague was "I took the example jsonnet and had working version for completely new deployment within hour" :)

Here's a list of campaign promises he made from politifact

https://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/promises/biden-prom...

Here's a few related to the environment

----

Rejoin the Paris climate agreement

U.S. formally rejoins Paris Climate Agreement | May 21, 2021

---

Put US on a course to net-zero emissions by 2050.

Joe Biden’s moves start the US toward net-zero carbon, but Congress is key | January 27, 2021

--

Establish new fuel economy standards

EPA tightens fuel efficiency rules for cars and light trucks | January 11, 2022

--

Give disadvantaged communities 40% of spending benefits related to clean energy

Congress holds key on clean energy dollars to poorer communities | July 20, 2021

###

There are four related to the environment that I can see. He's rejoined the paris aggreement and had then EPA increase fuel economy. The other two haven't been done ..yet.

What promise did he break? If he is anti climate what are you comparing him too? The past president left the Paris agreenment.

> you still need to have a bitcoin exchange accessible, both to the sender and to the receiver, right?

No, you only need an exchange accessible to the sender. The receiver can receive Bitcoins; they don't even need to be online while receiving them, because they can agree on a fixed address.

> in the cases of unbanked areas that exchange needs to be physical and able to give out physical cash

That is the case for traditional currency exchanges.

It is not the case for Bitcoin.

The missing part that you might object to is of course: If the receiver eventually wants to convert their Bitcoins into some other currency (USD, or some local, not hyper-inflated currency), they do need some kind of exchange.

But they can choose to wait until they have access, they can send Bitcoins themselves, and they can meet with people to exchange Bitcoins with the risk that involves. None of these scenarios requires a traditional currency exchange to be available in their area. Running such a currency exchange is presumably too risky / not worth it. But being an individual Bitcoin trader might, because individuals are exposed to and assess different risks.
Thanks. I thought this was a real tattoo which would have been pretty wild
I believe the parent thinks that the use of "Chinese junk" is a reference to the ship style from the 2nd Century. The "Junk" was a fully-battened ship, employed by the Chinese, during that time. Though similar junk ships were used throughout the whole of Asia, it became a symbol of Chinese expansion.

The use of the word "junk" when referring to the ship, is not actually an insult or anything of the kind. Practically all medium to large ships from South East Asia were referred to as junks, whether or not they actually had where we get "junk" from - a kind of rigging. (The exact etymology of the word is not, however, clear.)

Why the use of such a reference might be insulting... I have no clue. A junk is a junk. It would still be called a junk if you came across one, today. It's just a technical term, not an insult.
Unrelated to the conversation at hand but why do you write the £ symbol after the number? It's very jarring, at least to me
Both of yall attacking the other by claiming peak virtue signaling is annoying and boring.

The article is about Chinese junk making a weird impact. Can we leave the echo chamber behind?
Office 365 just seems to make links useless for security now.

I can believe that. I think it helps to understand where Verhoeven is coming from. He grew up in Holland during the German occupation, and it's liberation by the allies in the 1940s. He's seen the Nazi propaganda, the show and heroic aura of fascism right up close. He lived inside it. He also saw the bodies from summary executions of civilians lying by the side of the road. They're two very different sides of the same coin of fascism, one shiny and seductive, the other a twisted mirror image of ugliness.

A lot of his movies show you the heroic, seductive face of fascism for most of the movie, but every now and then through the movie he twists the coin just a little bit. You get a glimpse of what's on the other side, hinting at how what you think you're seeing isn't at all the whole story. But he leaves you to figure that out, the same way he did.
Seiko used to be groundbreaking for its time, one such example is Seiko UC-2000 that could run BASIC and connect to keyboard and thermal printer module.

That's not a great source. By "of its kind" they must mean accidental booster stage impacts. NASA intentionally crashed 5 different Saturn V 3rd stages into the moon.

The way it’s supposed to work is that the government sells bonds and the money goes away. Much like your original premise, it doesn’t much make sense that people think modern monetary policy only thought up quantitative easing and not quantitative tightening.

The HTTP GET method is idempotent: it should behave the same way on multiple accesses.

A single use link, e.g. for resetting a password or confirming a subscription, will usually show a webpage with a form that does a POST. Once that POST has been performed, the single use link is used up.

Single use links will mostly have a one-time secret that should not be leaked. Mails that contain such links or any sensitive information should be encrypted.

I mostly think of 4chan as an outlet, a place where you can show your worst with limited consequences because no one takes it seriously. Like a violent video game, or playing chaotic evil in D&D.

There are a few psychopaths who take 4chan seriously, just like there are psychopaths who think it is ok to play a D&D character in real life. But should we ban D&D just because of an extreme minority? People back in the day thought so, not so much anymore, because they now understand that it is just a game.

I base my experience on /b/, I don't know much about /pol/ but /b/ certainly was hateful, and it was fun, I got bored of it, and in the meantime, I don't think it affected me much, and neither did the many people I know who did the same.

There was some really bad things happening on 4chan. Like doxing or raids, but a bot won't do that, at least no more that more politically correct bots like GPT-3 (yep, GPT-3 can dox you!). In fact, it is more likely to disrupt the efforts by drowning the conversation in a flurry of vulgarity.
> The device takes its measurements by shooting an electrical current into the skin and then analyzing the body’s response, which is known as bioimpedance.

Interesting article, one I appreciated reading.

There are a few points which don't sit right with me, and I would love to read a rebuttal or even just a similarly styled article by someone on the other end of the spectrum.

(Reading any one side of the news is to live in an echo chamber. It is hard to avoid confirmation bias, but if you don't make any attempt to hear truth you will surely not.

My guidelines:

1. I can talk with my friends about politics only as long as we each agree to hear each other out, to not repeat ourselves, to respect each other, and to not let it get personal. This took awhile, but I now hear perspectives that amaze me.

2. Any article that gets me upset must be matched by another article with another perspective, even though it will invariably get me more upset ;)

3. Learning the truth is objectively a value, and it is worth getting the truth at the cost of being wrong. Better to get an uncomfortable truth before it comes at you in a conversation of 1, 'cause in a debate you have a bias to avoid eating crow.

4. The media are a bunch of liars, and their objectives are NOT to get you facts, their objective is to sell you a story. If you are relying on a story from the press, you are relying on Cinderella and Snow White.

5. Just because your team did something wrong or the others did something right doesn't mean you have to switch teams. There is a "programmers law" that you shouldn't discuss any software unless you can list at least five things that the other software does better than the one you prefer. Even Windows has 5 things it does better than Linux.)

>>It’s weird how hippies have become conservatives if they didn’t go woke.

Except they dont... Conservative has a very specific political meaning, and to consider everyone that is "not woke" either conservative or alt-right shows a massive ignorance of the political landscape

Classic Liberal, or libertarian people still exist, we are here. The 1990's and 00's the battle was against conservatives wanting ti suppress speech, blame violence on video games, and all other manner of BS.

Today it seems the far left has also taken up the mantra of speech suppression, and blame video games for all manner of social ill's,

It is the Horseshoe Theory of politics manifest in reality..

One can be "not woke" and at the same time, not conservative...

the " sizeable niche audience" is actually the sane people, the middle of the road people, the people that think both Extreme Conservatives, and Extreme "Leftists" are crazy....
Yeah. Though most projects still use header files with unity builds, so I decided not to call them that. It wasn't the concept of a unity build that I was emphasising, it was the idea of not forward-declaring everything.

> which heavier than air aircraft really ought to be able to reduce

It's not clear. Dirigibles travel at very low altitude, where the air is dense and they have a very high cross-section area. Very high as in absurdly high (A Goodyear-Zeppelin blimp has a diameter of 14m and a gross weight of 10 tons. So the cross-section area is about 600 m2 )

Jet airplanes travel at 10 km high, where it's almost vacuum. They are also very slender. They have a very high lift-to-drag ratio. A modern B-787 (Dreamliner) has an L/D ratio of 20, most other aircraft capable of crossing the Atlantic have an L/D ratio above 15.
If you're trying to measure popularity ("the state or condition of being liked, admired, or supported by many people") of someone in an important job, it seems like asking many people whether they approve of the job being done is a primary measurement.

"Compensating" for perceived reasons why a President is not liked, admired, or supported seems antithetical to the goal of measuring popularity. That would seem to me more like "fudging the data" (if I'm being polite) or "making shit up" (if I'm going for clarity).
> That's kind of a normal thing.

Yeah, sure, "normal", therefore cliché. Soccer moms are the bane of the movies. Just because you place a soccer mom in a gangster flick doesn't make it original, or courageous, or anything. It's boring and ridiculous.

Also, as a moviegoer, I really don't care how long the actors trained, how well, or by whom they were trained. I care about the result.

The result is a bunch of loud fighting, with boring and predictable domestic scenes in between. It glorifies violence and doesn't even do it well.
> Why?

Because unless the caller of foo uses a catchall, it may not actually catch the exception raised by bar.

Sure, its possible that callerOfFoo is prepared for that, but my point is, I don't know that unless I check its code.
