Except you do, and in much worse way. Instead of semi-transparent and regulated banks and other financial structures, at least pretending to be for humans, now tokenbros want us to succumb to the completely closed private pseudo-banks and exchanges, operating in some non extradition offshores, which STILL DEMAND KYC but do it completely opaque, not beholden to any rules, can ban you or block your tokens for whatever reason and have zero customer support or ways to appeal bans and blocks. And often operated literally by convicted criminals, for previous frauds. Amazing.

Just as an example - in reply above in this thread, your sour brother in this Church of St. Saylor provides Tornado as an example of of how private tokens are. But he is completely clueless about it, because the moment some of your tokes pass through it, then ALL your tokens become tainted. And majority of the exchanges will just ban you or block if that will happen. What an amazing future - if you want to be private, you must use some shady money laundromat and then risk losing all your tokens. Great idea. And there are other implications, like fouling other people wallets with Tornado tokens etc.

PS: oh wait, it was also you, that's funny :)

In 2010 a newer dictionary of gestures was made, the Author (Fabio Caon) also made a set of videos of the gestures (there was a DVD attached to this new dictionary), and published them as videos on youtube, links on his page here (Italian):

I'm guessing that this would have been either too complex, or taken too many years. The pragmatic, lower scope approach, already required quite a lot of work.
I’m not 100% sure, but my reading of the CockroachDB Jepsen test: https://jepsen.io/analyses/cockroachdb-beta-20160829 indicates that it does meet those two requirements, but that it still is not globally strictly serializable due to the presence of an anomaly they call “causal reversal” where: “transactions on disjoint records are visible out of order.”

If you read their Jepsen report and blog posts carefully, the anomaly they suffer from is not caused by a read transaction that started after previous write transactions had completed, but by a read transaction running concurrently with two other write transactions which both commit while the read is still running, and the read sees the writes in the wrong order. The definition you’ve provided above does not cover this case (I think) but its still a violation of strict serializability which makes me think your definition is too loose.

Correct me if I’m wrong though, at this level things get quite confusing.
Weird, that's the same feeling most people have had watching you guys handle COVID.
This implies "we do ignore the terms that are not quoted", which has been a common source of grievance with Google.

Planning your trip ahead, you search for pizza restaurant Chicago. Google ignores 2/3 of your terms and returns local restaurants that serve Vietnamese.
That results in a self-fulfilling prophecy though, doesn't it.
I find these paranoia articles (especially if written in a rambling style themselves) pretty unconvincing.

Obviously some individuals have been targeted and likely driven into self-destruction while people did not believe their story:

https://www.nytimes.com/2011/07/02/opinion/02hotchner.html

"In the years since, I have tried to reconcile Ernest’s [Hemingway's] fear of the F.B.I., which I regretfully misjudged, with the reality of the F.B.I. file. I now believe he truly sensed the surveillance, and that it substantially contributed to his anguish and his suicide."

Other individuals will imagine persecution. The only interesting number is which percentage of reported cases is correct. Given frequent documented stories about police harassment, that percentage is much higher than the smug articles would have us believe.
Looks like it ignores most of sea routes. Not practical at all.
What a bizzare disjoint article. Bell Labs, Quantum Computing, racial discrimination, blah, blah. There are analogs to Bell Labs today, including in Google and other working on Quantum Computing, and machine learning, and self driving vehicles, and... With one similarity that large (possibly monopoly) financial power allows companies to make these long term expensive investments. If somebody in Nature wanted to opine on Bell Labs like organizations they only need to look at the many examples out there. Sure they will look different but they are there. Why what was written was worthy of being a feature article in Nature Review physics is beyond me.

Developing paranoid schizophrenia is a very scary thought. I have encountered way too many people on the internet who have the same delusions. They spend so much time on their computer, they can continually harass you and spam you for years on end, if they find anything that particularly ticks them off. I think every community had encountered at least one schizophrenic person who keeps spamming the same incoherent word salads for months or years, and if banned, creating alt accounts constantly.
Great suggestion, but don’t do it Microsoft. This is one of my signals for when to move on to another tool so if you implement this I’d stay in Excel longer!
Parchment also lasts quite long and is easier to store. If you have a lot of goats, it might be the better option!
While neat, I'm not sure why should get this over a NanoPi R4S[1] if it's a router I'm after. The R4S is quite capable[2] and at $65 for the 4GB model, significantly cheaper than this board plus a CM4 module even at pre-chip shortage prices.

Sure this has HDMI output and more GPIO, but still.

Insightful thoughts! Although is the meat production efficiency really dominated by feed production efficiency - otherwise this deduction doesn't hold?

Oh, great, now to have same baseline semi-privacy as with money, I need to funnel my tokens through the money laundromat, and then get ALL my tokens tainted and account banned by all major exchanges, reducing me to even more fraudlent no-name exchanges forever. You have no clue not only about world economics, but even about how your tokens operate in reality. Great job. Have fun staying rich as your cult says ;)

I disagree that you "make that clear". It's rendered in the same light grey that the rest of the text on the page is in. I have several times noticed the message only after going through a few links. It's very easy to miss if you're in a hurry.

I think usability has been sacrificed for aesthetics here.
You're talking about the idea of stopping climate change. With nuclear power and Teslas.

The reality of stopping the climate change and environmental concerns in general is expensive fuels, gas from Russia (+ Ukrainians getting shelled), and closing of nuclear power plants.
Namespaces by themselves aren't a reason why name mangling is needed. There isn't a technical reason why foo::x couldn't be the symbol name, literally. (Not sure what ELF and PE/COFF etc would think of these names in current implementations).

Name mangling is needed if you want to overload functions and qualify them only by the types (not names) of their in and out parameters. This is where it gets ugly on the binary level.

> Google and Youtube search are heavily censored, for example if you open Youtube and type "JRE alex" then Alex Jones will be the last suggestion despite his episode having the most views

This is provably untrue. I just searched YT for "JRE Alex" and the first three results are clips from the "JRE" show (I didn't know what that acronym was before now) featuring Alex Jones [0].

Why are people repeating these complotist theories when it takes five seconds to disprove them.

Also, even if it was true (which it isn't), it still wouldn't be censoring. Censoring would mean not returning results when a match exist -- not massaging the SERP. It would also mean not publishing clips from said "censored" content on Google's own video platform, where they have millions of views.

In France there is a controversial (to say the least) comedian, Dieudonné, a holocaust denier and an anti-semite. He's heavily censored by the French government who regularly bans his shows; but canceling his YT channel happened only recently, after a lot of interventions by the state and other non-governmental agencies.

It's been my experience that Google is quite resistant to censoring, in general.

[0] Here are the top three results on YT for "JRE Alex":

As a resident of Berlin (that likes living there) I feel it's important to also mention NYC has almost 2.5 times as many people and unlike Berlin is part of a large urban agglomeration (the northeast megalopolis - total population ~50m).

It's not quite a fair comparison.
There's a grain of truth to it.

Being too hard on yourself to the point where you're avoiding hard work because of the guilt is counter-productive.

It's productive to forgive yourself for messing up, then make realistic improvements. It's unproductive to just wallow in a lack of discipline, or to spend more time beating yourself up than actually making improvements, or to try to achieve impossible goals to make up for past mistakes.

I think a big problem with general advice is that a lot of people listen to the advice that isn't good for them, because that's the kind of advice they already follow (even though it's terrible for their situation). The partial solution is to think of yourself as a friend, and ask what you'd advise them - that cuts through a lot of the special pleading we make for ourselves.
QB64 is almost a faithful recreation of QBasic with a bunch of extensions, though i'm not sure if it has a QBasic-like "live" editing feature (where you can pause the program while it is running, run functions or modify the code and then continue from there).

By mentally ill I mean it can cause extreme paranoia. Obviously not in all cases. It depends on set and setting. Imagine taking shrooms at a death metal concert and seeing demons for example. I’m all for the ritualistic set and setting, and eating well beforehand and maybe making a mixtape of good music to listen to whilst tripping. You don’t take these things going in blind.
Man, it just depends. In my youngest years, it was exactly as you describe. But then we moved to a new state. It was a little bit more suburban (not quite rural, but closer), and houses were a bit more spread out. Populated streets were more spread out, connected by roads I wouldn't feel safe cycling on as an adult, let alone allowing a child to do so. I couldn't wait to get my license to drive so I could actually do something outside the house without requiring permission.
The last one is the big one. London is so congested any attempt to relieve the congestion just results in more traffic because of latent demand.

From the course:
"In this challenge, you'll build a barebones SQLite implementation that supports basic SQL queries like SELECT. Along the way you'll learn about SQLite's file format, how indexed data is stored in B-trees and more."

So yes for B-trees, but it seems to end with SELECT and a basic WHRERE query, no joins or anything like that

The historical evolution of these local practices would be interesting, including any agreement to exclude such practices from written history. Is there a process by which some new people are approved, or is the local population self-sustaining from new births?

I agree with you, but I also think that it's bad that they are unbeatable. It can only lead to complacency and monopolist behavior.

I think as a society we need to think what it means to have one private company control access to all information.
thanx, I fixed that.
But that would involve hiring a human. Google's prime directive is "Never hire a human do a job well, when you can train AI to do the same job badly"
This twitter thread might be a bit extreme, but it raises interesting points ( https://twitter.com/punk6529/status/1494444624630403083?lang... ). Basically, if you are not allowed to spend money (transact) then you are really not able to exercise your other rights. And if everything was cashless there is an actual risk of Gov or BigBank having the power to stop you transacting completely. It has happened in 1st world countries like Canada already, and without a trial or anything as per thread. Granted, it was kind of an emergency situation, but while I'd love to go cashless (I really really want to), this kind of thing makes me steer back into supporting the opposite side of the argument.
In a lot of suburbs of Atlanta* (and even within Atlanta itself!) you will find residential neighborhoods with no sidewalks. And these are definitely not rural.

* The choice of city is due to personal experience, but I doubt it's unusual - e.g. I'm pretty sure it's exactly the same in/around Miami.

> N2888 - Exact-width Integer Types May Exceed (u)intmax_t

This creates a problem. How do you portably printf() an integer type that you don’t (and can’t) know the size of, like, say, a uid_t?

Before, when intmax_t was guaranteed to be the largest type, you could reliably and portably cast a uid_t userid to an intmax_t and printf() that: printf(PRIdMAX "\n", (intmax_t)userid);

But now, when any type might be larger than an intmax_t? What do you do?

(The same problem exists when reading an integer string; how do you read, say, a port number, when you don’t know what type in_port_t is? Previously, you could call strtoimax() on the string, detect overflow, and then cast the resulting intmax_t to in_port_t and finally compare for equality to make sure it wasn’t truncated.)

> There is active work in this area to allow us to transition to a better ABI and let these two types live up to their promises

Yes please. Introducing new wider integer types in your CPU, but pretending you haven’t created a new architecture with an associated new ABI, is silly.
Good point, but then again I'm not that sure it's a net benefit because I like everything in a codebase to refer to a given object using the exact same name.

I suppose aliasing is useful for widely used libraries, for example if a big software projects wants to include two different versions of the same library. Or Team A wants to rename their module but make it easier for other teams that use their module to follow suit.

All that can provide some ease of use in the short term but produces more mess to clean up in the long term. IMHO.

Real name clashes between two different libraries are quite unlikely, and namespaces would only solve that problem on the source code level, not on the binary / symbol level.
I'll show this to my teammates and see if they like it. I really appreciate having everything laid out like this!
It's absolutely a case and the reason is money and desperation. Imagine there is no public healthcare (USA) or the public healthcare is completely dysfunctional (Poland, Romania). Then you pay for every encounter with every medical specialist, who is mostly interested in charging and dismissing the patient, resulting with the patient turning increasingly desperate and impatient.
Instead of creating more opportunities for car drivers I would prefer a cycle tunnel.

I think some of the drivers who are currently using the Blackwall tunnel would switch to cycling if this was available.

Currently getting across the river in that area on bicycle is very difficult. You would have to ride to the greenwich foot tunnel and walk.

To me that would be a cheaper and quicker win.
I disable autocorrect now. The occasional typos are more clear compared to replacing a word entirely for a wrong one.
This is paranoid nonsense. I grew up in the suburbs and played in the streets and biked all over the place every day.
Volatile is exactly for this case. If you write or read a volatile variable then the compiler isn't allowed to remove the operations for any reason.

Anecdotal tidbits you may like:

In Greece, grapes are harvested normally before the feast of the transfiguration of Christ (6 August, tomorrow).

If you harvest earlier, they’re very Aesopian and sour, so farmers are really on the edge around these dates, constantly working to prepare the harvest.

But if they try leaving the grapes on the vines for a few more days, so they ripen more, you might lose the lot in the rain that usually follows a couple days later the feast.

There are few things more enjoyable these days here than taking random walks among the grape fields, chatting with the farmers, and leaving with a big smile and an even bigger bunch of grapes for the rest of your walk to the sea.
Windows comes with VBScript, all you have to do is make a text file with the .vbs extension and double click it. It contains some very basic functions for input and output (query boxes and message boxes). ~15 years ago i wrote an intro to programming article in a magazine that used that, it is something that has been on Windows PCs since Windows 98.

Nowadays there is also Powershell which can use the entirety of .NET and of course one can make an .html file and open it in a browser in pretty much any OS.
Thanks! Thats def more advanced than my little box with no antennae :)

But do you not see how the water issues are actually related? The catchments that do abut the GBR are not kept clean by regular water flow - meaning that when there is a major flood or storm, materials that would normally be absorbed by a green environment, are instead dumped - en masse during a flooding event - directly into our oceans. We've had a few major flooding events-worth of nutrient dumping in the last 20 years.

The cotton industry is buffering the problem - its not a direct cause - but it definitely contributes to the lack of local nutrient capture, which, when dumped, drastically effects our ocean water quality.

I think its important not to minimize the effect that altering Victoria/NSW's water table has on the waterway ecosystems.

This picture, straight from the horses mouth, shows you just how interdependent the waterways - and thus, the GBR - are:

Your story reminds me of this research lab with state-of-the-art 10 Trillion FPS camera. From the video they apparently are still using Windows 7 for the measurement set up [1]. They're publishing in Nature and most probably using Excel for some of their data processing workflow.

My former research lab is, however, mainly using Igor Pro software running on Windows. It is waves based professional data processing software tool that has friendly GUI and intuitive table interfaces not unlike Excel but geared towards scientists and engineers [2].
