> I dont think it's obfuscated at all.

Not deliberately obfuscated, true. But any code that contains tokens like "CAR", "caar", "CDR", "cdar", "CONS", "caddr", etc doesn't belong in a modern production environment where auditability and maintainability are paramount. What's the goal here, shortest possible text? Why not just replace each of those with a Unicode Greek letter and save two bytes and three characters each?

If that means Lisp itself is the problem, so be it. The assumption that "software engineers" in the late 1950s somehow designed the holy grail of programming languages is laughable anyway.
The problem is in that Cloudflare has already shown through previous actions in dropping 8chan and The Daily Stormer that they are willing to be arbitrators of what is acceptable. So once you're down that slippery slope not removing someone who looks a lot like those two sites translates to tacit approval.
The climate changes daily and yearly because the sun's got daily and yearly cycles. But the sun's got 100 or so years cycles, too. So the climate changes slightly over those periods, too. Period.
We just launched it - so not yet besides our first beta users.

I loved walking along the foreshore of the Thames when I lived in London. We also had regular social gatherings & parties on the beaches. Once you descend the steps you're immediately removed from the busy city and people and can explore a little used area of the city. It's also a great place to take children, to see what pottery fragments & bones they can find. The tide can come in quite quickly, so checking tide times is wise.

It's worth noting that there's various myths about the legality of activities on the foreshore. Whilst there is little policing of the foreshore, it is mostly owned by the Crown Estate and managed by the Port of London Authority. They are accepting of people walking along the foreshore but technically only licensed mudlarkers are permitted to remove objects from the foreshore (and are obligated to report the find).
> Produce food under the new conditions

This alone is an incredibly difficult problem to solve, as evidenced by the fact that the entire history of our species has been spent trying to solve the food problem.

Only very recently have very wealthy western nations overcome food insecurity for most people, while the rest of the world (and poor people in wealthy nations) are already struggling with food insecurity, without adding more crop failures due to climate change on top. The Haber process was only discovered in 1909!

> Move people away from the oceans as those rise

Given that a very large percentage of the world population lives near the ocean, what makes you think relocating hundreds of millions if not billions of people and their jobs and communities is not a hard problem?
All of those arguments are arguments to use a good DNS provider, not specifically to not put the domain and the DNS on the same provider. I've seen DNS providers remove the namespace the instant they see the domain pointing somewhere else too.
Oh it is a little more complicated than this. First the executive moved to Samsung and helped them. When he went to SMIC, he took 200 Taiwanese and Korean engineers with him. I would assume that some of those Taiwanese engineers were from TSMC originally.

People in the tech industry should find this mass movement of whole groups of people familiar. See Fairchild Semiconductor, Zoom, Facebook, etc, etc, etc...
Just know that if you let it run over night often, you will see it on your electricity bill. My GTX 1660 runs at max while rendering, which is 125W. Leaving it running over night can easily eat 2 to 6 kw's, depending on your system.

As the sibling comment demonstrates, this is not at all a result of Government action.

To be honest, I can't think of ANY current-event-protraying foreignly-produced media that would be shown on networked television in the US.
I wonder how to use a devops flow for machine learning workloads. Something we are working on at my current job is how to balance the speed of releasing together with keeping data, pipeline and model versions aligned (where it for instance takes multiple days to release a new model).

Releasing new features which need a model retraining is currently a very jarring experience.
Another comment [0] pointed out that a version of this was already tried, and it was found to still be a public performance. Not sure how much the details of the technologies used would affect the ruling, but probably not enough.

Who decides what "something useful for society" is? Is it the case that Google engineers optimizing ads are not doing something useful, but game developers creating games that some people play for 8+ hours a day are doing something useful?

You are suggesting politicians do not indirectly affect monetary policies?

You are right - monetary policies are set by ECB but that's beyond the point of my comment
Next sentence: Schließlich erwirkte das amerikanische Produktionsstudio jedoch, dass dieser dritte Akt des Films auch in der deutschen Fassung gezeigt wird.

Translation: Eventually, however, the American production studio managed to ensure that this third act of the film was also shown in the German version.

Wikipedia isn't clear on the process or the timeline (and there is no source given), but I read it like this was "fixed" during the initial cinematic run.

Plus, whatever the cutting was, it's available uncut since at least the home video release, and I presume it was shown in cinemas uncut after at most a month. And the current rating is FSK-6 (suitable for children over 6). So it's not banned, and never was. The closest it gets is the 1966 initial cinema cut (which I agree to call a ban, but as stated, from the data given I don't believe lasted for long).
> Clinton actually was the better choice; in fact, technically one of the most qualified candidates in history

Personally speaking, I did not like how she and her colluders ran down the Sanders campaign. Their characterization of his supporters as sexists and racist was fundamentally, profoundly dishonest. They could have addressed his policy proposals, but went the other way.

This led me to understand that this would be what we could expect from her Presidency. Before that, I was open to Clinton.

After her loss, I had been hoping for a Democratic party introspection about the way they had run this campaign and a house cleaning. Instead, we got enablers, diversion and outright lies. A shuffling of the worst actors, but no purge. Extremely disappointing. We still have never had an honest accounting for that debacle, and I remember and distrust every news outlet and commentator that repeated those lies.

I want to be clear that I did not vote for Trump, either. But he was not the worst President in my living memory. That honor goes to the President who lied to the public in order to get us into two (2) ruinous, useless wars and did not adequately prepare successfully for the occupation. Honestly, not having tentacles throughout government is a bonus, to my mind.
The way I've done this is to use planettiler to generate vector tiles for the whole world and then pack that into a squashfs archive. That way I don't need an additional program to serve them, and I can regenerate the whole archive every couple of months or so (I don't need the latest data).
I think that’s the point. The process of writing helps take an idea from vague to clear and concrete. The act of writing reveals weaknesses or gaps in your idea.

I often times think I ever a clear idea. But when I go to write it down its more like I have just the first two bullet points. The act of fleshing out this comment is a good example. :)
In addition the already mentioned GSL, there are two more I know of and which I have used for spline interpolation in C/C++: John Burkardt's spline library[1] and Netlib[2]. The pppack library from Netlib is Fortran code so you have to write a wrapper when using it from C++.

EDIT: A quick internet search (in my case for cubic splines) gave more relevant results, so dependent on your needs, just look around: https://www.bing.com/search?q=cubic+spline+c%2B%2B

It's really unfortunate that C++ keeps adding more functionality that makes one of its critical problems (horrible syntax debugging) worse. All of these libraries generate atrocious compiler errors for even trivial typos.

Sure you can. For example, with rsyslog you can just send all logs over the network to a logging server (which has disks).
Oracle is 25 million lines of code vs 1.3 million lines of code of PostgreSQL
Still Oracle don't have all basic isolation levels. Only the Read-Commited works perfect. And DDL operations are still not transactional. We should think which is inefficient design. The process model may not be very "efficient" as thread model. but it is more "stable" and more "secure". Benchmark results are not bad either.
> A single space character can be the difference between garbage (or nightmare-fuel) output and output that captures the spirit of the prompt pretty well.

It shouldn't really, have you tried generating a few images with each prompt with and without space?

Even with the same prompt, you can get a wide variety of quality.
Because it worked out for you, that time. As a manager and probably the person that would have told you no, or to justify more before we attempt it, I've seen this scenario go pear-shaped way more times than not. It's about risk, priorities, and specifically knowledge/experience (sometimes wrong) that says this is "not a good idea". Sometimes it's also just plain old complacency, though.

Well once the disk was worn out, and you had a backup, you could re-sell the backup

Of course this may be abuse of the fair use backup copy, but when talking digital, we are anyways inventing philosophies.

Other way could be the backup could be entitled to "one last rental" to recoup last 4 bucks or so. I think that would be fair use but others may not.
When the mistake in question is a sum of money orders of magnitude bigger than what you make in a year, demanding it back in 7 months sounds like the only reasonable thing to do. Especially if it's very clear that you knew it was a mistake, made no honest effort to notify them, and proceeded to spend all of it as fast as you could.

> pairs of notes whose frequencies are multiples of 4/3 or 3/2 sound very pleasing when played together.

Yes, but why is that? Why did we evolve to like these particular combination of notes? Or, why do they remind us of some other natural sound?
Quite rapidly, maybe after how they described ternary conditionals… and it only grew from there.

In the year 2033 Earth was discovered by Survey Fleet MCXII of the Galactic Empire. The Emperor ordered Earth to send a representative to the court, with strict instructions to “bring something beautiful”.

Emperor: What beautiful things does Earth have?

Earth Representative: Your excellency, our mathematician Euler proved in our year 1737 that

+/(1+⍳∞)*-s ←→ ×/÷1-(⍭⍳∞)*-s

Emperor: What is the ⍭ symbol?

Earth Rep.: ⍭i is the i-th prime.

Emperor: And what is ∞? Does it do anything useful?

Earth Rep.: It denotes infinity, your excellency.

Emperor: (ponders equation for a minute or two) Respect!

Emperor: Neat notation you have there. Tell me more.

Earth Rep.: Your excellency, it’s called APL. It was invented by the Canadian Kenneth E. Iverson…
This technique of imagining a specific person before you while you do your thinking is very powerful. I will often have conversations with people in my imagination, typically people with wisdom or expertise in certain subjects. I've found that this allows me to gain insights I wouldn't be able to get "on my own". Of course, it's the same "hardware", just emulating a different "operating system".

Napoleon Hill describes a similar method, he would have meetings in his imagination with a roundtable of all his heroes and role models, and consult them any time he needed to maken a difficult decision. In this way he trained his own thinking and character to be more and more like that of people he greatly respected.

I like the reasoning given above — how you tried to short circuit the unwanted discussion.

I have been using a Macbook Air M1 for the past year for development and here are a few of my tips:

1. Definitely don't go for the 8GB model for whatever you do (except for light web browsing), always go for the 16GB (or if you're heavily reliant on Docker, do heavy development and Adobe, as you said, go for 32GB). I have the 8GB model and Docker is painfully slow, the computer itself gets slow and it's overall very annoying.

2. On the topic of Docker: it has gotten much better over the time – at first, Docker was indeed painfully slow (I'm developing a Rails+React CMS, big pages took about a minute to load, now it's down to 5–10 seconds). I have read that running Docker through Parallels (if you're on M1) is much faster, but haven't got round to testing it.

3. The Air doesn't get noisy as it's fanless, however there have been occasions where it has become hot, but it doesn't happen very often.

Overall I think that if I had the choice, I'd go for the 14 inch Macbook Pro M1 Max. I have read that M2 Macbook Pro is kinda pointless, because as it might have a bit faster of a chip, the updated 14 inch Macbook has a new design, an HDMI port, an SD card slot etc.
I think Amazon Prime did censor the first scene from the Boys season 3 (I think) but I can't bear to re-watch it and compare it.
Only the Air's do not have fans, the Pro ones do, as far as I know.
> But the fixation on sex, in particular, seems to go beyond that, and yet it’s fairly universal among them.

Sex is how workers create workers, a means of production. So of course they try to seize control of it.
Macbook Pro with M1 (is it M1pro I don't remember), but anyway, all of them have fans. I have yet to hear mine though, completely different from my previous intel MPB where fans were spinning on 80% almost constantly.

> This is why this perspective is so privileged. You're assuming people have access to a functioning legal system through which to correct the issue. In some rich countries, that'd cost a lot of time and money, which many people don't have. And in some poor countries without a functioning state, that's not even an option at all.

I'm not assuming that they are. They may very well in fact not be, but they are an American-based company with a mostly functional legal system so that is the rules they go by. I for one thing it would be much more dangerous for Twitter to play judge, jury and executioner but it seems like that is almost what you're advocating for here.

> It's also an inversion of morality. You're putting 100% of the onus onto the small time individual to correct the issue, and 0% of the onus onto the large corporation that actively facilitated the harassment in the first place by engineering viral mechanics that encourage mobbing.

I don't see how Twitter encourages mobbing. They have privacy controls and you can also block people. If someone is making threats those can be reported to Twitter. Evidenced-base coordinated campaigns can be considered conspiracy and reported as such. Saying things you don't like isn't a conspiracy. Telling people where you live so they can harm you is strictly against their ToS.

Sometimes standing up for and defending yourself takes utilizing the rights given to you by law the best you can. The more you practice it the better you get at it. It isn't on a company to have to get involved in disputes on a public forum that are civil in nature unless they feel that there is a sign of physical danger to the individuals by letting it continue, and even then in there yes rightfully so there are legal remedies to report these types of violations.
Even better: Pixar/Disney movies are so American.

I lived in the US for ~9 years, and before and since I have been in Europe. I can totally sense this, and it's almost annoying.

I wish the Pixar/Disney teams would move to another place for 1-2 years, then produce a few animated movies with that new perspective.
To be clear, I am not skeptical about regulation in general - i am skeptical about this specific regulatory strategy.

It's utterly bizarre how the Canadian medical system has been framed by some.

It's not perfect, and probably overwhelmed right now, but it's a triaged, fairly effective system that does what it's supposed to. People that need care tend to get it effectively, especially if you're closer to a large urban centre and it's neither a tax burden nor a heavy financial burden to citizens.

The sentiment, mostly I gather from other interests in North America paint a different picture. I know of half a dozen people that would not be alive today if it were not for the system we have. No financial burdens. Just reasonably good care.
Their risk compared to someone who cared wasn’t much different in the end assuming they got vaccinated. Which was my main point. Stressing out over things doesn’t really change your outcomes.
>I mean sure if Europe wants to simple give 5-10 billion to a US cooperation that is destroying its own launch industry.

The alternative is not getting the space-based solar power working for a very long time. They don't have the launch capacity. Also, they can do both, you know. It's not like they have to choose to forever give up all work on their launch industry to do one big project.

>If you want solar power in Northern Europe, just put collectors into southern Europe and put a DC long distance power transport line.

This might be doable, but it'd be interesting to see a good analysis comparing the two. Southern Europe is still pretty far north if you look at a globe, and doesn't get that much sunlight in the winter (though the southern tip of Italy is certainly better than Denmark, for instance). HVDC will still have significant losses over that distance, though I don't know how that compares to microwave transmission from space.

>But why would you want solar? Norway and Sweden are already mostly green because of hydro and nuclear.

Hydro is unsustainable and is not scalable. It's completely tapped out in developed nations, and it also causes huge ecosystem destruction. Nuclear is unpopular, and apparently having serious problems in France currently.

I'm guessing BMI is not really a considered obesity metric, but rather a good approximation which any GP can calculate in seconds.

For example, tall people tend to have higher BMI, as if 2 is not the right power to raise height to. But you barely need a 4-op calculator to calculate that. Good luck calculating BMI if the power were 2.18 or whatever gives best fit.

Measuring body fat is not exactly hard but much less straightforward and a touch unpleasant. If you're running a large study, it's much easier to measure BMI than anything else. At population level, I'd imagine correlation to obesity is easily 80-90%.

I guess it is also easier for doctors to say "your BMI is too high" rather than "you're too rounded".
