I've been stupid, brave, heroic, et al... and have suffered the consequences. I see the merit in both sides. If you don't know exactly what you're fighting for, and how to fight for it, there's safety in blending in. I don't intend to excuse cowardice, but one needs to pick and time one's battles.

What makes our current war different from others is that our enemy controls nearly every aspect the society we live in. They decide whether we have an income. They can destroy our reputations. The end of the world has started (i.e., we are in a state of active war, it is a violent one even if most people don't know it yet, and it will likely escalate to totality although it may take 100 more years) but everyone still has to go to work. That's the problem. If you're facing a foreign invasion, either you kill them or they kill you and either way it ceases to be your problem. If you're at war with an enemy that has the power (by law) to withhold resources and coerce you to work for them, it's completely different, and in general it is more trying on courage, because there are now three possibilities instead of two: (1) you win, (2) you die, or (3) they keep you alive in a degraded state in which, even if you think you're working in opposition, you actually serve a strategic purpose from their perspective (i.e., they can make an example out of you). The indignities and tactical failures associated with the third possibility are what makes humanity's final war, the war against capitalism, so different and so much harder to prosecute.

Your list shows Wind Waker selling twice as many units when released on the same platform as Twilight Princess. There are confounding factors here (the Wind Waker re-release may have had a larger "missed it the first time" audience, and there were probably fewer active Wii U users in 2016 than 2013) but it's the closest thing to an apples to apples comparison here.
For one thing your loved ones don't have much influence on how long you live?

For another you could just cut them out of the will if you die young?

I don't know what problem such an insurance could solve.

The best way to insure your kids and loved ones try to keep you alive is to behave in a way that will (hopefully) cause your kids and loved ones to like you.
> This means Google may have turned over such critical information as unique mobile phone IDs, IP addresses, location information and details about users’ interests and online activity

Can someone help me to understand this?

I thought Google kept this kind of user-preference (interests/activity) data to itself, and used that as the sauce powering its ad auctions. If you run a site, GA will give you IP, location, etc. for inbound traffic, but I didn't think they would give you data on other users.

Does Google actually sell user preference data and IPs in bulk? What product are they referring to here?

The reality is that most environmentalists don't care about the environment, they just care about making people miserable. I joined some environmentalist forums because I cared only to realize how misanthropic most of them were, and they did not care at all about reality.

Insurance in ANY form is gambling. Plain and simple. It is a bet that takes places. Just framed in a more flowery language compared to a traditional betting statement "If I win you pay me x, if you win I pay X".

Insurance company: " Pay me $xxx per month, if something happens to you, we will pay you X"

You may benefit i.e your insurance claim is more than the premiums you have paid, or you can loose out by paying more insurance over a time period than the claim. Or simply loose all together where you keep paying and you never get the opportunity to claim.

The insurance company operates like a casino, probability is calculated so it always earns more than it looses.
> Note: dynamic addressing environment. Repeat: 'dynamic'

"Dynamic addressing environment" in this context refers to the stack frame in which the procedure stores its local variables (and which may contain, for example, a link to the stack frame of an enclosing procedure, as in Pascal). Lots of things can be dynamic, which is to say, determined at run-time; method dispatch is just one of them. This is a good example of you repeating buzzwords without understanding what they refer to, although in this case the buzzword is also a technical term with a precise meaning.

Intel liked to use the term "object-oriented" to describe the iAPX432 because it was fashionable, but their idea of "objects" was more like CLU "clusters" as filtered through Ada, not the Smalltalk approach the term "object-oriented" was invented to describe.

You're also confusing CLOS and Flavors with CLOS's MOP.

Helping you stop being wrong is not really my responsibility :)

You're treating knowledge as a repulsive medicine that needs to be forced on you, not a precious treasure that merits seeking out. The problem with this is that if you only change your mind when it's profitable for someone else to talk you out of your mistakes, you'll just end up being exploited (and continuing to parrot half-understood nonsense in technical discussions). It isn't society's responsibility to give you the cognitive tools you need to realize your potential; it's yours.

At the point V was version 0.2. Of course it has bugs - even bad bugs.

The article went through each feature of V, found one bug per feature, and claimed that V failed to have that feature.

There are constructive and non-constructive ways to start a conversation about bugs in a language. One constructive way is to open Github issues. Writing an article claiming that a language fails to have those features at all is one of the least constructive ways I can imagine.
So, your argument is "The art is terrible and he must have known it was terrible and possibly made it terrible intentionally for some sort of complex culture-war publicity reason because the only other possibility is that he's actually offended by people telling him he's a terrible person and and idiot and a moron and only capable of producing absolute garbage because no person today would be offended by that because I guess it happens a lot because internet"?

Honestly, I'm trying to say something about this argument that falls within the site's guidelines for discussion and I can't really figure out a way to.

They're engineered for home use, that's why they are sold at home depot, on amazon, and in retail outlets.

Restaurants buy proper commercial gear, from hospitality supply depots. You don't buy restaurant ovens, and gear, from amazon or home depot. A strong tell is, restaurants aren't looking for candy red, enamel coated stuff. They want stainless, and their gear is hidden away in the kitchen, and they don't want to pay a penny more for trend.

Honestly, why would you say that? There is nothing about this that is commercial.

For sure. The unicorn era is characterized by an oversupply of venture capital that gets spent well in advance of proportionate proof of utility. E.g., Theranos and WeWork. Or pretty much the whole [1] of the metastasizing crytpowhatever space. Layoffs in nonproductive companies are good, IMHO. And the sooner the better, as the longer someone spends in a bubble, the harder it is for them to adapt when the bubble pops.

I intentionally didn't use Google as an example. Major search engines obviously have tricks to index things like this, though I'll note there are still gaps. For example, googling "v language data structures" produces nothing related to V itself.

That said, I'm specifically talking about trying to search things that Google doesn't index, like a Discord server, an internal wiki, or a specific non-textual filter on a public site. As mentioned, I tried searching for a specific Twitter thread about V from people I follow and didn't find it because they just called it "V", which on Twitter returns a ton of results for things like court cases.

I'm sure if I spent forever massaging my query I could track it down, but if it was called "vlang" or "VL" or something similarly distinct it wouldn't be a problem. For example, PHP, Perl, OCaml, SQL, Prolog, etc. are all quite easy to find regardless of where and how I'm looking.
That’s a pretty deeply unquantifiable thing. How do you measure trauma at the scale we’re talking about? Self reporting will only reflect the trauma people are aware of, and mental health diagnosis are basically just self reporting one-step removed.

As far as I know we’re stuck in anecdote and personal opinion territory, until we have a better way of quantifying the kind of low-level trauma of a non-abusive-but-still-damaging childhood.
I always hate the discussion around “hypersonic missiles”

What you care about is how much charge is at that high voltage potential because current is charge/sec. Charge due to stray capacitance can be quite dangerous because if you don't know what you are doing, the amount of stray capacitance can be higher than you expect. I would be very careful doing anything with kilo-volts using a circuit, as opposed to a static charge device, such as Van de Graaff generator.

2022 BP Statistical Review of World Energy
This is the 60th annual publication of BP's statistical review of world energy.

As in past years, the full report is a downloadable PDF:

https://www.bp.com/content/dam/bp/business-sites/en/global/c...

There's a summary of key aspects in the Chief Economist's statement, in part:

This year’s data show a sharp bounce back in global primary energy in 2021, increasing by almost 6% and more than reversing the sharp fall in energy consumption in 2020 as much of the world locked down. Primary energy use in 2021 is estimated to be more than 1% above its 2019 level.

In many ways, this sharp rebound in energy demand is a sign of global success, driven by a rapid recovery in economic activity as the widespread distribution of effective vaccines allowed for an easing in Covid restrictions in many parts of the world and a return to our everyday lives. But it also highlights that the pronounced dip in carbon emissions in 2020 was only temporary: carbon equivalent emissions from energy (including methane), industrial processes, and flaring increased by 5.7% last year.

https://www.bp.com/en/global/corporate/energy-economics/stat...

Among other key findings:

Primary energy in 2021 grew by its largest amount in history, with emerging economies accounting for most of the increase

This was lead by growth in China.

The increase in primary energy between 2019 and 2021 was entirely driven by renewable energy sources.

Total oil demand for 2021 remains below 2019 levels.

Thank you much for sharing this experience. I’m really sorry this was the case for you and your siblings. I myself was e trembly lonely as a child despite trying public and private schools.

It was it’s a different culture that felt more conducive to socializing and community - and in my experience more inclusive of a weirdo like myself :) since then I’ve found my friends working on collaborative projects (tech accelerators) or spiritual communities (zen center, yoga)

Looking specifically for game development roles. Can relocate to another country if sponsored. No NFTs, would rather not work on predatory F2P.

I have a passion for doing the best, so I'm up to date on C# and Unity techniques and features, consider myself good at architecting for type- and data-safety, while having respect for performance-critical situations where you have to cast abstractions aside.

I value simplicity and ease of use, both for other developers (maintainability, not over-engineering) as well as "users" (whoever creates the inputs for a system, or the end-user)
Even if it did run afoul of labor regulations, it's damn near trivial for a business to find a justification ("new information", "changing market conditions", etc.) for a change of plans.

There could be a selection effect at play. When I was growing up (the nineties), there was a social stigma around homeschooling due to its association with creationism. I went to Christian summer camps until I was a teenager, and the homeschooled kids stood out even in that environment as by far the more religious among us. Whether they were awkward because their religious practices shielded them from normal life or because they were raised by naturally awkward parents that self-selected into a highly regimented lifestyle is a mystery.

Yeah my strategy has been to provide answers to peoples questions in the subreddit if I felt I could provide value. I only ever mention my product if someone is complaining about the pain point our app solves. I also don’t post links and I expect people to Google us after reading about us on Reddit. We spent early efforts on SEO to make sure we dominate the first page of Google for our name so that we don’t have to post links and people can easily find us. After all that, I still got accused of being a spammer and got banned from a few Subreddits by nasty mods lol.
