Well, to be perfectly frank I'm wholly negative about this. The corporate gobbledygook in the FAQ doesn't include anything to assuage my fears about the obvious conflict of interests for the core Godot developers. I'm a full time indie dev. I just started donating to Godot's Patreon after the recent Unity / IronSource kerfuffle and wanted to pick up the engine for my next title. I guess I'll be cancelling that subscription much sooner than I expected, and I don't know what I'll be doing now, tool wise.
There are major performance advantages, especially once you're past HTTP/1.1, to passing a mutable response (i.e. in Go a ResponseWriter) to the handler rather than expecting the handler to return something created whole-cloth.
Yes, I tried (a few months ago) mocking a PR for this that refactored the enum variants into ZST structs and that was the only sticking point for backwards compatibility.
"From 1976-1980 to 2015-2016, the geometric mean blood lead level (BLL) of the US population aged 1 to 74 years dropped from 12.8 to 0.82 μg/dL, a decline of 93.6%. Yet, an estimated 500 000 children aged 1 to 5 years have BLLs at or above the blood lead reference value of 5 μg/dL established by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Low levels of exposure can lead to adverse health effects. There is no safe level of lead exposure, and child BLLs less than 10 μg/dL are known to adversely affect IQ and behavior. When the exposure source is known, approximately 95% of BLLs of 25 μg/dL or higher are work-related among US adults. Despite much progress in reducing exposure to lead in the United States, there are challenges to eliminating exposure." (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6522252/)
Personally - I think it's interesting that the M1 chip might actually be better than the M2 stuff coming out now, given the thermal profiles of the M2 chips aren't as good.

I would take that as a bad sign for Apple - at a minimum, it seems like they're under-investing in chassis design to account for the heat output of the M2 chips, and it's a shame. As a worst case, it indicates that the design for these chips might have hit a local optima very quickly, and there isn't much space to push the envelope with future iterations.

The quality of blogs varies wildly so this makes no sense. Gwern seems to take a long time to write their blog and do research. Sometimes a blog post is literally a teenagers stream of consciousness. Both are OK, but it really depends on the blog whether I consider writing it both 1) a lot of work 2) valuable to me.

Canada sends people to the US for abortions:

Canada's abortion laws are more restrictive than what was under Casey.
People have different beliefs about many different things, not just morals. For example, some people believe that the Earth was created 6000 years ago. I'm not claiming my beliefs are infallible, just explaining what they are and, in some cases, why I hold them.

It's difficult to tell from your one-line comment, but it sounds like one of your beliefs is moral relativism: that there is no objective reality of what is good and bad, only "different morals" held by different people. That belief is false.*

Laws exist only in the same sense that Zeus or Santa Claus exists, which I think is the sense you believe that morals exist: they are collections of ideas that are passed from mind to mind, but there is no sense in which it can be objectively true or false to say, "The law forbids [such and such]." There is only, at best, a social consensus.

______

* Of course, my belief that goodness and badness exist objectively is fallible, but even if it is as incorrect as the belief that the Earth was created 6000 years ago, its veracity is still an objective question; it could be true, false, or partly true, but not meaningless.
In the western world, text runs left-to-right.

The real issue I have is that Facebook keeps an unencrypted copy of everyone's DMs stored and just waiting to be handed to the government. I understand it's how they make money, and that they've done it forever, but man, I guess using Signal has spoiled me. It's so weird to me that most people are completely unaware or unworried that their "private" conversations aren't private in the slightest.
Your thoughts are interesting, but I am having trouble seeing how this relates to the Wikipedia article. The Wikipedia article is about police murdering a number of Indigenous Canadians. I am not sure what the connection is to a "virus" of drugs and anger spreading among Inuit people.

I believe that none of the men in this Wikipedia article are Inuit. Wikipedia reports 2016 census showing the following Indigenous population of Saskatoon: 85 Inuit, 14,430 First Nations, and 12,255 Métis. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saskatoon#Demographics
> Consider your accelerator pedal in a car. Somewhat simple method to increase fuel to the engine. If something is wrong with the engine, it doesn't message that back to you through the pedal. Even though the pedal won't work. This can be as trivial as the car not being on, the pedal will not work.

I don't see how this is a problem? The accelerator pedal API, so to speak, is purely mechanical -- its "return value" is whether or not you were able to put it to the position you wanted, it doesn't promise to return any information about the downstream effects of that pressure/setting.

The accelerator is tightly coupled to the valve which controls how much fuel is given to the engine, but anything after that is a downstream (event-driven?) effect that I as a driver have to observe through other means. So if the valve is stuck I expect to learn about that failure after I call this fn, sure. But the impact on the intake, or the engine RPM, or the transmission, or my wheel speed, or my actual velocity, these are all things I discover through other means.

So it's not

fn depress_accelerator(f64 amount) -> CarState result

but rather something like

fn depress_accelerator(f64 amount) -> bool worked
fn depress_accelerator(f64 amount) -> f64 throttle

It's not complicated. When I call a function, I expect it will do what its signature says it can do, and I expect it to return control flow to me. If you can't rely on these assumptions, it's effectively impossible to build reliable software.
US Democrats have just passed a huge bill involving climate change mitigation. Republicans are using it as a whipping stick to tell Americans that Democrats don't care about them, climate change is hogwash, and we should instead be focusing on cost of living involving inflation (which Democrats are already doing in tandem).
I would, here are two arguments...

You and I are sharing a thought. This thought I am writing at you, implanting in your brain via words you understand... is fundamentally the same as the messages between cells in your body... a message is a message is a message, regardless of the methodology of the message.

Just being intelligent, and just being able to pass messages back and forth is all that's needed for a consciousness to be made up from the parts - it may be hampered by latency. But the default is that this process scales indefinitely.

If that's not convincing - here's an example of how this plays out in our day to day lives at a smaller scale than the whole species... you're work... you work in a group... that group has goals and desires the members of that group reach a consensus towards... precisely like the cells in your brain, taking various inputs from stimuli - reach a consensus to form your conscious experience...

even when we are separated by physical distance - we create connections to each other to mitigate that distance. planetary distances are small enough that connections might be fast enough...

I would default to {maybe: (bet on yes) }.
The added complexity in Python 3 isn’t a barrier to entry for beginner programmers. They don’t suddenly need to know more to write basic programs, but they can access new language facilities when making more complex ones.
Back when I read books, one of my favorites was "My traitor's heart" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Traitor%27s_Heart) which is a riveting, honest and balanced (IMHO) look at post-apartheid from a man who fled the country in the 80s, then returned to revisit his homeland, acknowledging his own family's terrible history in SA.

I also found this funny:

The SA government became involved to avoid having a hostile Soviet-aligned country on their doorstep facilitating an armed resistance against their rule (at least that’s what they claimed, and there are reasons to believe them) - the ANC was involved, because, well, they saw themselves (and many members still do, as I pointed out above) as a revolutionary member of a community of anti-imperialist forces aimed at the emancipation of the African proletariat.

I read over and over about strategists in all governments playing their chess pieces to avoid domination by other world powers. There is no laughable irony in what happened in Afghanistan when you read back about the soviet and US involvement and the revolving door of friendships that turned into enemies, and then back.

It seems crazy that we have a bonafide war in Ukraine right now, and so many world powers are avoiding getting involved directly, but are constantly involved indirectly and surreptitiously over and over to great detriment.

I wonder how the people in power form their opinions about what actions are necessary, and how the people making these decisions climb higher and higher into positions of power and decision making when the results all seem so awful. I suppose I'm only hearing about the bad outcomes, not the successes.

Does anyone have examples of a world power funding a revolutionary force and it ending in peace and prosperity?

While this case involved a search warrant, Facebook also gives information to police departments without a warrant for any case that they determine to be an "emergency". Here is the portal where the information is requested and provided:

Back when I used to have a Facebook account, Facebook provided private information from my account to a police department without a warrant for a situation that they deemed an "emergency", but that I did not. I no longer use Facebook.
As a counterpoint - the big benefit I see from Astro isn't that it has minimal dependencies, it's mainly that it seems like a very flexible foundation to build from. So I'd agree a landing page doesn't need this, but "the best tool" for a landing page is probably too specialized for general use in larger applications.
Maybe Musk is behind this to weasel out of the contract?
Considering vertical toolbars with buttons can be on the left or right, I'm not sure it's a focus or handedness issue. I would guess someone picked it and there was never a good enough reason to change it later.

What is apparent though is that in the latest UI design trends people aren't even clicking on vertical scroll-bars enough to justify them being visible by default, and I presume they're mouse-scrolling instead, so perhaps left or right never really mattered much at all?
I thought "sports" meant racing and the driver wanting to have maximum control over their gears?

I've cancelled my Spotify premium sub years ago because in truth they've always had ads: the Dashboard always had artists that I had zero interest in listening to, that were not part of or related in any way to the music in my library, and that big labels wanted to push my way. There was no way to turn this off, so after a month or so I just cancelled my sub.

So, Google-account-cancellation phobias aside, I went to Youtube Music where I still am. No bullshit.
> AMD was absolute garbage for like 10 years until around 2016

Their top performance was lower than Intel in many cases, but it was certainly not "absolute garbage". For low- to mid-range they offered similar performance with usually a (much) lower price point. For normal "average person" usage they were often the better choice in terms of "bang for your buck".

The main reason we were selling Intels is because we got a rebate from Intel for every CPU we sold. Financially it didn't really matter if we sold a €400 computer, €500, or €600 computer: the profit margin for us was roughly identical (a little bit more, but not much), but with Intel you got a rebate back-channelled, so then it did matter.

Top learners will, by and large, continue to learn in a remote situation.

However, a lot of people benefit from classroom instruction.

A friend of ours has a daughter who falls into that categorey. Pre-covid, she needed to take a basic math course. The community college closest only offered online courses for that. She could not pass despite being diligent. She found a community college in the next county that had a classroom offering. She took that and did fine.

It's strange that community colleges are moving to online classes for exactly the kinds of classes where people likely need classroom instruction.
I fully understand your point. I didn't find the comment rude or annoying personally. But there is a reality in that comment - my own brother pretty much echoed those words, calling me out for asking him to look at the data. Got pretty angry actually and called climate change "a carbon tax scam" and dismissed me as a fool and rational science as fake. I was genuinely shaken by that as it's not an anonymous internet comments spat, but your own flesh and blood - up close and personal.
This may not be such a good choice.

If you turn the ignition all the way off (instead of just the engine) the steering lock may engage. Additionally you will also lose power steering and the brake assist. I guess the latter doesn't matter much in this scenario, but the steering lock could result in a really bad time.
I'd have to agree with GP here. It wasn't at all obvious for almost anyone that Intel can get so quickly to the level of performance Arc offers. After decades of bottom of the barrel iGPUs in a span of 2-3 years they went to decent iGPUs, and then decent dGPUs (according to those who touched them). That's quite an achievement in a market that all but solidified around the 1.5 incumbents.
It always ultimately comes back to safety. How many times has AEB avoided a pedestrian that was not detected by the driver of the vehicle? Is that greater or smaller than the number that were hit by drivers with a false sense of confidence in the software?

The Dawn Project test cannot answer such questions.

I believe that NHTSA is working on this and related questions across the industry and I expect them to produce a more useful result on their own than what can be produced by single-minded reports like this.

To be successful as a new entrant against powerful incumbent players you need to have some sort of competitive angle / advantage. Intel used to have a fabrication lead but chose not to make dGPUs whilst they had that and allowed Nvidia and AMD to own the market.

Really struggling to see this leading to a successful outcome - even if they produce a reasonable product it’s likely to be third placed which is not a comfortable place to be.

Anyway, I've got the members of my dev team writing terraform for their changes now too. It's working, more or less. They are excited to do it because it pads their resumes, because it's new. But we continue to increase demands on devs, they need to get paid for their trouble or the responsibilities must be diffused.

The evidence provided by the likes of Tesla does not compare to real-world driving. They cannot produce that evidence yet, despite however many millions of miles on test circuits and well-known roads they want to tout - it's a false statistic designed to deliberately mislead the public into thinking the software is better than it really is.

The burden of proof is on the FSD companies, not average drivers. The likes of Tesla have to prove their software is far superior to human drivers - and so far they have failed to do so.

There are far too many FSD beta videos out recorded by real users that demonstrate obvious safety issues. The software is just not there yet, and may not be there for a long time, if ever.

Articles like this come out far too often to just be discarded as media "hit" pieces.
Yeah, I implemented an “atcrash” handler as a library which I embedded into multiple projects. But it was only so I could walk the stack, dump a stack trace into the terminal, and tell the user, “Please email this to the developer.” And then as cleanly as possible shut down the process. In C, as you say, not much else can be safely done.
