This is like object oriented c, meant for real-time mostly but I honestly use it most for sample processing and synthesizer design. Fantastic software.

Fun fact: miller Puckette, pd's author, also wrote the first versions of max/msp, but the IP was owned by the university he worked for at the time. IRCAM? I can't remember, but that led to cycling74 spinning it off, cultivating jitter and eventually gen~ while being bought up by Ableton.

Great histories, great math, arguably great code. It acts like the proverbial gateway drug, addicting musicians and artists to programming in text. I like Visual programming, but the paradigms themselves are pretty transferable to event oriented environments.
And don't forget, military needs teachers as much as anybody. When there's no war soldiers are on stand-by. What do they do? They train, which is really a form of education. They could learn many things besides how to use weapons. They could learn how to be teachers when they are ready to leave the military. :-)

I’ve had roles in Rust-focused companies, most of my interviews have at least mentioned Rust, and work at a company using C but with some internal support for Rust. This is all coming from someone who isn’t particularly interested in Rust lol. It’s seemingly becoming very dominant in systems programming.

One suggestion:

- Put the ISO8601 date in front.

Use a tool to rename all existing ones.

You will then be able to find things chronologically, they’ll be grouped as you found them, and you can find things you can’t remember except that you worked on them at the time you were doing that other thing.

All your other ways of finding them still work.

Bonus: also works as a better versioning convention than “Title v4 Bob Copy 2.docx”.
My informal sampling suggests that people are quite inexplicably actually buying it. The net present value of the feature has always been very obviously negative if you make even a passing effort to analyze the financial sensibility of buying FSD. My conclusion therefore is that people are buying it because its overhyped and oversold.

I really want Tesla FSD to work too, but I fear the way that the feature has been promised and sold so far is delivering mostly dissapointment despite the progress being extremely amazing.

Tesla has in the past activated FSD on their pre-owned inventory as a means to increase their profit margin on this segment; a lot of cars have FSD because of this.
This is an area where comment threads can shine. For most questions, if you ask it early enough then odds are that you'll get a good explanation from someone.
This only works in a small team or a small company -- "high trust scenario". As soon as your team grows to medium/large (or company same) -- "low(er) trust scenario", then politics really matters. This rule can be thrown out the window. People will show one face to you and another to their manager.

If the numbers were trustworthy, it would offer a measure of your career prospects after developing a competence in the language.

Of course, the SO and TIOBE numbers are very much worse than useless for this purpose.

Relative numbers outside the top 10 or 20 will of course be entirely meaningless because of small sample size.

How would you explain the cost to someone? Most of the discourse seems to boil down to some mix of "it's creepy" and "it could be used for a nefarious purpose", which is not super convincing.
Government regulation spans further than just rules engineered by a few politicians, it can be publicly voted upon, and it can dictate minimum standards that are upheld across private business for everyone's safety, which in this case is highly warranted.

It's the best chance we have to stop this horrible trend. Companies have shown repeatedly that they are not trust-worthy nor responsible enough to self regulate.

I'm reminded of an excellent series of short pseudo-documentaries that explained life on Earth for aliens, and in that narrative they were trying to discover if there was intelligent life on Earth. The conclusion was that the dominant life form was Corporations, and individual humans were more like ants or worker bees. Then they decided the corps must be intelligent because they were terraforming Earth to make it warmer.
They have three sets of weights to adjust the scores across nine different metrics. Here is their 2021 version which did the same but let you alter the weights yourself (would be nice if they'd still offered it this year, but they had their reasons not to):

https://spectrum.ieee.org/top-programming-languages/

You can see the likely weights they used for the three rankings they show this year.

As to what it means 100 vs 70.22 means, it means that Python got a higher score under that ranking. It showed up in more places.

You hit the nail on the head. It depends on the target market for your application. If your users do not expect to manually update, it’s probably a good idea to build an auto update mechanism that is opt-out or opt-in. It might not be worth it for other target markets though.

However, my point was that just because an application isn’t doing something critical, doesn’t make security vulnerabilities in that application harmless.

Many Worlds Interpretation suffers from a more catastrophic and incredibly strong assumption, namely that all of the possible universes are real. That seems far-fetched on its face, though could still in principle be possible I suppose.

Quantum Bayesianism ("QBism") softens the strong claims about reality to merely those about subjectivity, i.e., you cannot know that which cannot be represented by the configuration space of your lightcone. In other words, possible futures are possible only when there is an unbroken causal chain from your present to that future, and you will be ignorant of anything outside of your lightcone. It stresses the uncertainty inherent in a singular perspective of spacetime's unfolding, rather than an uncertainty of some mythical "wavefunction collapse mechanism".

What amazes me is how few details were in the referendum. The question asked was "Should the United Kingdom remain a member of the European Union or leave the European Union?" and the possible responses were "Remain a member of the European Union" and "Leave the European Union".

There are a lot of ways Brexit could have been implemented. One extreme would be to make it so the UK has no special arrangements with the EU. It would be just another non-EU country, like say Mexico or Japan, that trades with the EU. Agreements and treaties would arise eventually to deal with issues as needed.

The opposite way would be to make it more like say Norway. Norway is not a member of the EU but is part of the Schengen area along with many EU countries greatly easing travel. It's part of the European Economic Area, easing trade.

Are politics in the UK stable enough that at the time of the vote one could predict which kind of Brexit would be implemented? I don't think anyone seriously thought that Brexit would be fast, so implementation would be years after the referendum.

And to give Musk an out, which is what this tangent is about, not only do they need to have actually lied, the lies need to have had a VERY substantial effect on the price of the company.

The bot thing simply does not help Musk get out of the deal he's made. That is not the same thing as "Twitter are great at dealing with bots and have been very transparent about how they do it", but that's not the bar that has to be cleared here.

The image captcha isn't even the latest version. The one where you need to click on images is from like 2014, but recaptcha v3 doesn't require any interaction from the user at all.

In fact it is not.

It stands some chance of becoming that in ten years, but odds are still strongly against it. It would need to pick up a thousand users for every existing user, completely swamping all existing users. But probably a substantial fraction of all programmers willing to use it as it is already do. There seems to be little appetite to change it in any way that would appeal to the larger number.
No they aren't. We should not be hero-worshiping anyone. Not the military, not the "COVID essential workers", not the health care providers and not scientists. This is a religious type indoctrination and people that don't believe it become heretics. I'm done with any type of moralizing of any group of people.

My dad was a scientist. He was not a superhero. The people he worked with were not superheroes. In fact, they were all thin-skinned, selfish pricks that wanted to keep everything for themselves with no sense of helping others, etc. It was a zero-sum game in his laboratory so the competition was toxic.

Most scientists are desperate for their next round of funding. They will do anything to get it, and it incentivizes them to not do anything against the grain. The real scientific community isn't so magnanimous or selfless at all, it's almost the opposite.
