Like with most DoS style attacks it's mainly vandalism. Though an online DoS could be used for market manipulation at the right time, it usually isn't.
That’s not really what I’m referring to. There’s actually a tool in Haskell that can rewrite code into a points free style, and it can handle much more complicated cases than just simple composition, it can handle multiple uses of a variable, it can eliminate multiple variables, etc. you can create some real incomprehensible stuff this way.

Edit: Here's a Haskell wiki article:

https://wiki.haskell.org/Pointfree

> Point-free style can (clearly) lead to Obfuscation when used unwisely. As higher-order functions are chained together, it can become harder to mentally infer the types of expressions. The mental cues to an expression's type (explicit function arguments, and the number of arguments) go missing.

> Point-free style often times leads to code which is difficult to modify. A function written in a pointfree style may have to be radically changed to make minor changes in functionality. This is because the function becomes more complicated than a composition of lambdas and other functions, and compositions must be changed to application for a pointful function.

> Perhaps these are why pointfree style is sometimes (often?) referred to as pointless style.

I have observed some relatively extreme examples of pointfree in the wild, and that's what I'm referring to.

You’d think so, wouldn’t you? You’d think that at least Microsoft had some legal veneer to cover what they are doing. But no. They simply took “source code from publicly available sources, including code in public repositories on GitHub”¹ and used it.

It's my belief these days that most people don't care about political idealogies, they care about results.

Possibly stupid question, is there a reason they went with

parent:has(child)

Instead of

parent < child

Which seems a bit more intuitive to me given that the inverse is a thing.
The only things missing are the diagonal pinstripe background, drop shadows & glass borders round the thumbnails, and glossy reflections & lens flare on the images.
the road to nowhere is proprietary firmware for hardware, not if it's running an aosp customrom or gnu/linux. I wanted to make this distinction as your parent comment read as if the gnu/linux part is a precondition. I agree on the downside of having less or no say in android product direction, but it's up to the firmware (and carriers frankly as they control the mobile towers) when obsolescence for a device happens.

> It's quite obviously not beneficial to the homeless people to segregate them.

Lol what?

There’s a lot of different world views out there. The prominent world view throughout the world is that society forms to protect itself. Pretty basic reasoning: we band together to protect other people stealing our stuff.

Homeless are in effect stealing. They are living beneath the society often selling drugs, on drugs, committing crimes, leaving excrement on the street, screaming wildly, etc.

The homeless are not part of society and are not contributing members. They are living off the society and causing a net negative effect. You could potentially reverse that by getting people into shelters, etc. - how’s that working SF, LA, etc?

The common world view (in Asia, parts of Africa, parts of Europe, etc and historically everywhere) is to push the homesless out of the cities. It’s safer for the society and allows the society to be more prosperous.

Society can care about the homeless, empathy is good. But it’s empathetic to everyone to separate them from the society. People that can conduct themselves can join the society, otherwise your hurting everyone.

That said, the island:

> The program calls for the construction of 50 to 100 “tiny homes” on Virginia Key, an 863-acre barrier island.

Seems like a decent option. They get a home and have the option to rejoin society after they pull themselves together. Although, it’s a barrier island… and I can’t imagine that’ll end well.
This is a great point of comparison. I feel that societal systems (and associated complexities) are more rigid than biological systems in the sense that a biological systems evolve efficient solutions in response to changing internal and external stimuli while societal systems cannot/will not due to man-made laws, norms, expectations etc. The latter (biological systems) shows first order adaptation while the former (societal) shows, at best second and third order adaptations, if it even adapts.
To be fair, it’s likely due to European regulations that a US newspaper has about zero interest in complying with, or even bothering to pay a lawyer to figure out.
Exactly. It’s literally the core concept to consider when considering art. You have to actually see the real thing to experience it.

That doesn’t mean you’ll like it there’s an excellent chance you won’t. But experiencing art in real life is fundamentally different than seeing images of it, and this is doubly true for larger scale or more installation oriented pieces.

A good example that’s a little closer to home and easier to experience for many is DIA Beacon outside of NYC.
Blame the lawyers. One website is not representative of the entire USA, but yeah in general I prefer European hospitality.

> Homeless epidemics are really just drug addiction epidemics

The causes of homelessness will vary from place to place, but in Victoria (Australia) health issues (which includes addiction) is only listed as the cause for 2% of homelessness [1]. Now obviously this doesn't necessarily give the whole picture - for example, DV accounts for 35%, but it's possible that the violence is exacerbated by drug use.

[1] https://vincentcare.org.au/our-services/homelessness-statist...
That, sure, but also maybe it's also the thinking that advertisers aren't targeting foreign customers anyway, so why pay to serve non-targeted users who might annoy with legal issues?

the entirety of your post assumes that homelessness is a moral failing of individuals when the entirety of what we know about community development and psychology shows that that is not the case; you can believe in this plan, but you are supported by money and ego, not by actual fact friend
Because they cover different scenarios.

If you want the previous one concept, you can get it via static linking alongside OS IPC.

However it requires more OS resources and is complexer to program.

I don’t think parent was making a comment about real estate prices. Obviously the market tolerates the issue.

Some parts of SF have gotten pretty bad. I volunteered at a couple places and honestly was surprised at how little effort is going into fixing things, so I’d expect the present situation to continue.
> Homeless epidemics are really

The "homeless epidemic" is basically a fiction. The US homeless population tracks the broader economy a bit, but on the whole tends to be quite stable. Here are some numbers from Statista: https://www.statista.com/statistics/555795/estimated-number-...

The reason people feel like it's getting worse (beyond simple politics) is that there's been a general shift in public sentiment away from the kinds of policies in the linked article. Where we used to use law enforcement to force the homeless out of core public areas, now we generally tolerate them in most urban environments. They do, after all, have to sleep somewhere.

But that creates backlash, which leads to impressions like yours about a problem ("failed cities" ... really?) that really doesn't exist.

But the core point is that they were always there. You just couldn't see them.
That may be true, but even if true, there’s still a risk-vs-reward tradeoff at play here. “What do I expect to benefit from serving EU-based people vs what is my cost/risk in serving them?”

Some sites have determined that ratio is out of whack.
I am referring to the image slicing technique and rendering fancy buttons and sidebar "blocks" using tables in the likes of PHP-Nuke and other content management systems of the time.

What is the speed on the central section though? The average is very heavily weighed down by track sharing on the SF end
If you are arguing for a flat tax, then simplicity is not enoigh to make up for the obvious downsides. Particulalry as fixing them isnt conplicated.

If you're arguing for simpler tax systems, which I think I agree with, mentioning flat tax ideas in the same post is only going to put people off the idea, and see it as a scam to reduce taxes on the wealthy and undermine democracy.
This is a miserable and venal way of looking at society's most needy. The fact that their needs are visible to you does not eliminate their humanity or their presence in society; it makes it all the more pressing that we integrate them and address their needs rather than burying them.
The upshot is that the AGI might realise that companies are wasting money making annoying ads.
You can still have something like that on Windows, thanks to PowerShell.

Safari team is really strange with their priorities, most of the time they are dead set on implementing specs last, but every once in a while they decide a feature is important and they implement it faster than everyone else.

> Homeless are in effect stealing. They are living beneath the society often selling drugs, on drugs, committing crimes, leaving excrement on the street, screaming wildly, etc.

This has to be satire, right? Poe’s law. I can’t believe anyone would honestly hold this opinion, let alone be willing to voice it publicly.

No, this message is as american as it gets. What they are really saying is "We are not allowed to profile and sell the data of european visitors like we do with americans because of the GDPR, so they are not relevant to us". This relentless commercialization and lack of privacy is not exactly new.
The reason is responsibility, and not one wants to take it, especially not politicians or people working for the goverment. That is why they need metrics, so they cannot be taken responsible for the consequences. "It was not my fault. The numbers said it."

If San Francisco is like Seattle, significant efforts are being made, they are just completely ineffective. When you try to treat a national problem locally, adding 1000 homes for 20k homeless people just means you’ll have people in those 1000 homes but now 21k homeless people next week.

a promise is not a promise, it is advertisement to make BJP the king and then they turn back and proclaim how the people "chose" them, and endless feedback loop.

in my "valley", which is home to 8 million people, 1/3 are of voting age and no one votes. multiple reasons but one of the major ones being that people do NOT accept indian rule over our land and people. that means, for the most part, voting used to be 0.1%-5% at best.

now, the ruling BJP is doing what is being termed as "election tourism", bringing 2.5 million voters from rest of mainland india and having them vote BJP into power and then the same BJP will say "you voted us in power, kashmiris have accepted India, bwahahah"

The article gives a few examples where a pseudo-class fits better with how CSS normally works. For example, the selector matches the last item in the selector. With ‘<‘ it would match ‘parent’ in your case.

You can also match descendants of something with the :has() selector. It really is more than a “parent selector”

I'd even say that, at an annual €10 billion, it's a pretty good deal for the state.

Starting from auto-generated code isn't considered a proper bootstrap process by the Bootstrappable Builds project. You need to be able to start without any binaries or auto-generated code from the project itself. Usually that would mean starting with a basic implementation in another language, but starting with an older version of the same project that was written in another language and then going through several older versions of different milestones is often easier than reimplementing the language from scratch in another language.
