The reason it isn't circular is that if there is one implementation, even with good documentation, there will inevitably be lots of corner cases where the implementation does something, but it isn't written down anywhere. Independent implementations will discover many of these issues and they get clarified as part of the standards process.

So you can't really produce a high quality standard with only one implementation. You'll miss important details.

Europe is different for sure, and incumbents often use regulations to fight innovation but that happens in the US as well. Internet access for example is a lot better in Europe compared to US.

Plenty of people have some level of need to be part of a group of people beyond the nuclear family. Some of those people don’t seem to be very aware of the side effects of not having a group. Do you remember looking forward to going to school so you could be with your friends? (Cue tribal argument).

The group itself probably doesn’t matter so long as it is more than a couple of hours a week and not socially shallow - since you have kids perhaps something linked in with them?

I think it would be worth the effort to try an experiment and see how you respond.
There are lots of good reasons in that thread why the patch was declined.

The patch made things more lenient which makes things less compatible (this whole thread is about ANSI SQL standards and they do matter) and changes what was an error behavior to now silently succeed.

The approach Stranger Things (at least, in the first, best, season) uses to suspend disbelief is to invoke a sense of child-like wonder, AND terror. Our protagonists are, by and large, children, or emerging from childhood into the lived body-horror of being a teenager. We see the world (primarily) through their lens, a lens that magnifies AND simplifies things. They don't understand what's going on, they just _know_ things are happening. Their credibility is established on the basis of "are these things a kid could conceivably think/believe."

Contrast that to media like Moonfall, where the characters are supposed to understand what's happening AND convey that to the audience. That's a much bigger lift. Their credibility is established according to "does this correspond to things an engineer would plausibly say/believe," which not many films get entirely right.

Stranger Things also has one more screenwriting technique going for it - it shows, instead of telling. We are _shown_ 11 being submerged into a tank and transported to the Other, we aren't told that that's whats happening. We are _shown_ the terrors of a mother who's lost her child, we aren't told "oh she's so sad." Show, don't tell, is THE big rule of storytelling, and it's ignored because it's hard to achieve.

EDIT for grammar
I wouldn't dwell on how you "should" feel about your current situation. Reflect on what it is you value in life. Are you meaningfully fulfilling and working towards your values? If not, think about what aspects of your life are tangential or contrary to your values. It may be worth considering making a change in those areas.

It's also important not to beat yourself up. It's normal to think about how things could be, and it's not easy to appreciate the things you have. These are normal human emotions and behaviors, and they are perfectly ok.

I will mention, I think for the majority of people what you do for work is not the primary driver of life fulfillment. Work is a responsibility we take on, our societal contract to fulfill the needs of ourselves and our loved ones.
This is awesome. Way to go.

It'd be cool to get the same kinda effect with Ml Agents and Unity. I should work on that.
I'm not sure your "same Americans" assertion stands to reason. After all, the same Americans use "that's socialism" or "that's communism" very incorrectly when objecting to just about any policy. Republican politicians regularly call their opponents "Radical Leftists" for no reason at all.

Perhaps the current Americans who favor socialism know what "socialism" means other than an insult, and the current Americans who can't name the 3 branches are the portion that uses "socialism" as a synonym for "I don't like this". Needs more research.

> why is email deliverability still an issue?

Mostly what I've found as the main issue here is that popular blacklists will blacklist entire IP blocks instead of individual IPs, so you have to not only have a clean IP but also be on at least a /24 with all clean IPs. This can be hard to manage when relying on outside hosting. And unfortunately, trying to get around it by using a cheap/free relay like Amazon SES or SendGrid doesn't work, as they fail to keep their IPs clean (if they're even trying).

Try to unask the question. These sorts of existential questions usually contain huge assumptions within them. Here, the obvious one is that the assumption that it's possible to feel "enough" in life. A very similar question is "What is the meaning of life?" To phrase it that way makes it seem like there must be an answer, like "what is the meaning of 'cat'?" These are not really questions - they are emotions. You don't answer emotions - you sit with them, you share them with those closer to you, you process them, you get some sleep.

You might try "Notes from Underground" by Dostoevsky first, which is much shorter, just to get a taste of his characters and writing style. If you like that, go on to "Crime and Punishment", and then read "The Brothers Karamazov" last.

I saw a dust jacket quote that said something like, "Dostoevsky writes about the unconscious as though it were conscious". When I started reading his books, I felt like he naturally reveals his character's psychology through dialogue (both inner and intrapersonal). They are surprisingly relatable. They have quirks and insecurities, can be hot-headed one minute and fearful the next. "Do you know what it means to demand when you are only in a position to implore?" asks one protagonist. They struggle with big questions, their motivations are laid bare, and they endear empathy as would a self-destructive family member. Dostoevsky may not write inspired literature, but he has something important to say, and he says it from his uniquely Russian soul.

I sure hope they never ban "Hero", it's one of my favorite wuxia movies! I don't see it as propaganda at all, regardless of the ambiguous interpretation of its ending.

As far as I can see it has many people from Hong Kong in its cast -- including the awesome Maggie Cheung -- and the production company was from Hong Kong. Regardless, I don't consider "sponsored by the state" to be a naughty word, nor do I consider "fully privately sponsored" to be a badge of honor.

You don't have to be hyper-online or hyper-connected.

I spend time with people in person or on the phone usually. We, gasp, _do things_ like go to restaurants or go camping. Sometimes we all sit on the sofa in a big pile and share snacks and watch movies or talk about life.

It's nice. Sometimes I'm even alone and get to read a dead tree book or just enjoy nature.

What happens "on the internet" is of very low importance, slightly below my choice of socks or what brand of snack to get.

The article mentioned the value of static typing for "ahead-of-time more-correct programs" and "faster or leaner programs", but overlooks an even greater contribution: being able to quickly understand unfamiliar or ancient long-forgotten code without having to run experiments on it or call someone out of retirement.

It's the difference between having a plain cadaver, completely drained of its life fluids, and having one where every empty tube, regardless of size, has been labeled with something like "blood, to heart" or "lymph".

Most software that has been continuously developed over a long period of time is either C or C++, even though Lisp predates both by over a decade. There's a reason for that.
Good superfakes of the Rolex submariners come with a cloned movement that looks pretty damn close to the real thing. It's not just a generic movement shoved into a rolex-like case anymore. Either way, all rolexs have closed casebacks, so nobody is gonna even be able to see it. If the exterior looks correct, nobody is going to notice. But, the Rolex 3135 is a 30+ year old movement, so you'd hope modern technology could copy it pretty well by now.

I have acquaintances who did not put in the time and now regret it. Their children and grandchildren are not in their lives.

"You can’t eat potatoes forever."

Actually I heard from the local potato lobby organisation in my country, that the potato is the only food in existance which you can eat exclusive forever and you can't get any bad sideeffects, because a potato contains all nutritions needed...

Is this not true? :D Is there any real science on that?
I was there 5 years ago. My psychology was getting worse by the month as everything I did seemed more and more futile.

I quit my job, travelled to some bucket list destinations like Japan, Fiji, Galapagos, machu piccu, then went on a 5 month backpacking trip across both islands of New Zealand with my (ridiculously) supportive wife. I immersed myself the whole time in zen philosophy and tried to lose my egocentric placement in the universe.

It was a great reset for my depression, but did nothing to erase the fundamental feeling that all of reality and my actions within it are pointless.

For the first year I took my passion projects seriously, devoting almost a full work week of attention to them. At a certain point, I stopped those too. I realized I was merely creating my own flavor of the distractions I'd tired of.

Now the only things that bring me real joy are improving my home environment, the health of my family, and getting out in the sun and playing sports. That kind of "out there, just around the corner" abstract life satisfaction I was chasing seem as ridiculous to me now as participating in US politics. It is all ephemeral.
Those lines move pretty fast at major areas, and if the total calls/dollars per hour are higher, they may come out ahead. Utilization matters, as does how the taxi company "rents" the vehicles/medallions.

You can't, but you don't have to "want more" in the same "direction".

I think this article by Nathaniel Travis gives a lot of insight into the human condition with a remarkably simple premise:

[1] https://nathanieltravis.com/2022/01/17/is-human-behavior-jus...

The reason we can't ever be entirely satisfied is our fundamental control loop cannot consider scale (and for good reason if you think about it for a few minutes). So no matter how good things are, you will always sensibly consider how things could be better, no matter how little it would actually improve your day to day (if at all).

Fortunately, it does seem we have some control over what it is we expect to gain, so I would suggest you start "tumbling" vigorously in ways that are not detrimental to your current life and you may come upon something that really sparks an interest (at least enough of one).

I suspect there's also a darker parallel with these systems and give-up-itis, in which a lack of dopamine from the prefrontal cortex seems to cause stasis and eventually death or suicide as the basal ganglia loses the ability to perform self-directed activity (the control loop has shut down) [2]. This isn't entirely different from a bacteria failing to find a gradient and simply waiting out the situation. But from our highly derived perspective, waiting out a situation when we are the only thing that can create situations is not a useful feedback loop.

> You aren't required to pay for basic supplies, prison commissaries periodically give out hardship packages which include things like sample packages of soap and toothpaste, since withholding basic hygiene products is cruel and unusual punishment

You're describing the idealized scenario, which isn't exactly wrong, but it doesn't represent the reality that many prisoners actually live in. Yes, it varies - not every prisoner will have the same experience, even within the same prison - but having access to basic necessities is by no means a given in prison, and having wages garnished makes that much harder.

Did anyone die as a direct result of Ross giving an order / paying for a murder?

Did the police investigating Ross misrepresent these murders to him while they were occurring?

Did the police investigating Ross attempt to enrich themselves by stealing illicit funds from his drug enterprise or by selling him details of the pending investigation?

I'll give you that the courts have repeatedly held the police can legally do most of these things, and that even having lying/stealing cops running the investigation doesn't invalidate the fruits of that investigation. Perhaps you could also concede that a lot of observers are going to have difficulty seeing the difference in these two shades of grey?
This is an odd take that I feel is rooted in a misunderstanding.

rust intentionally has a fairly rapid release schedule, so that you don't end up with a big release every year that introduces several possibly breaking changes.

Features aren't randomly scheduled for each release. Instead each release is a snapshot of what's been stabilized by that point.

If you prefer some arbitrary concept of stability, then you can quite easily lock to any version of rust this far and ignore any new versions till something catches your fancy.
This is... not promising.

Someone would write like this if they don't know anything about instrumental analysis and are just guessing as a result.

As an example, they don't seem to even understand that wet and dry weights are substantivel different measures, and speak as though Magalhães et al. (1990) is measuring wet weight; it is measuring dry weight.

I'm supportive of autodidactic study and outsider research, but this is, frankly, a mess. They should unweight their priors considerably and bring in some chemists.

I got an engineering job at a top-30 EE dept (UBC). By the pay was really poor - i once had an elite dad but he died when i was 13. So I quit the job, as I was no longer elite. An elite family can backstop you when you are taking a low-paying academic job in an expensive city.

The thought that poor people would go for a professor job is no true. I believe most poor people would much rather have money to help their family, money to bank for security, money to pay back their student loans, money to start a family life, etc.

Also it's worth pointing out that academia is a huge pyramid scheme and jumping to the next rung of the pyramid can be made much much easier if your mentors (ie your parents) know which tricks to use to make the greatest leap possible.
> But somehow, it isn't. It's never enough. It is probably human to always want more.

The passionate college runner dreams of making the Olympic team -- just to be on the team would be enough. The first-time Olympian dreams of standing on the podium -- bronze would be enough. The bronze medalist is upset he lost to silver by .1 sec. The silver medalist rages that he came so close -- so close! to having it all. The gold medalist wonders if he'll ever win gold again.

No one is ever satisfied. (fine, there are some exceptions -- I tip my hat to them).

All the advice below of quitting to do your own thing is (most likely) baloney. Down that path is just loss of wages and all the associated stress and opportunity costs. Again, there are exceptions, and congrats to them.

Here's my advice: You're doing great -- stop whining! I mean that in the friendliest way possible. This is what winning at life feels like. It doesn't feel like winning.

The indictment can shot-gun whatever sort of overt acts the grand jury buys into that they like. A conviction usually only needs one qualifying overt act, so a conviction is not at all evidence the accepted overt act was any of the murder-for-hire accusations.

What you're doing here is presenting the indictment with the murder-for-hire as overt acts and relying on the sleight of hand that the reader will assume the conviction asserts the overt acts, when in fact the conviction only generally relies on at least one overt act (and need not be any murder-for-hire related one).

From my experience, getting acquired by a mega corp, always results in the entire dynamic of the job and company changing. You used to work for a small startup and now you work for a mega corp. They are two different beasts. You either get used to the new flow or go find a new job.

People will only care that your last employer got acquired when you start looking for a new start up job and they want to be acquired.
