Instead of insurance deductibles, how about a third party accident claim payout strikeout limit? It could be quite high, say a million dollars or two, but this would still open the driver to unlimited liability for litigation in the event of reckless negligence litigation claims.

I would also set a mandatory minimum compensation level to unrepresented accident victims in a similar range, possibly paid in escrow for medical expenses and family care.

My thinking is partially in response to earlier comments about the wealthy just not being bothered by the cost of their own relative safety while driving the heaviest vehicles. That really ought to be tested imo.
It's just not where the EU is right now. I was at an EU young people summit almost twenty years ago now, and I pointed out that the EU would need an army to stop future genocides like the Balkans. I was shouted down by basically everyone in the room.

I'm not convinced that much has changed since, and you definitely can't be a super power without an army.

I'm not entirely sure about it but these days, if you format your blog post and references in a specific way (APA/MLA citations, etc.), Google will consider it a scholarly article and show it in the results of Google Scholar. I'm not sure whether any academics will consider it or not, but it'll enter google scholar results and will be visible to them.
It was his willingness to spend inordinate amounts of times working out answers to problems himself, instead of trusting the work of others. He explains in his autobiographies that this gave him a “different set of tools” than other people, which allowed him to tackle problems that others couldn’t or wouldn’t because they seemed insignificant.

But a lot of that is used to pay authors for new submissions, pay editors, pay podcast narrators, pay residuals, pay for subscriptions to archives, pay for hosting fees, etc. As the founder my personal per-month profit is in the neighborhood of $600/month.

Is it that surprising? Wouldn't you consider node_modules/ basically a virtual environment as well? Python didn't go the node route from the beginning so virtual environments make a lot of sense to fix the issues. Node presumably drew lessons from python and other sources and went with the full recursive design from the beginning.

There's an actual 'irony' in those that have difficulty grasping the difference between rhetoric about perceived social victimhood, and actual direct victhimhood, sneering about 'irony and victomhood'.

Whether or not Black people are victims in any given scenario is debatable. Firing this prof is obviously ridiculous and speaks to the actual authoritarian systems on campus.
I'm also atheist. But if I take the position that nothing matters then I mean that, nothing matters, that includes the suffering of others. If you disagree then like me, you agree something actually matters.
Great idea! One comment though - on Firefox when I try downloading the font, it disallows the download stating that it is a security risk. That is because the font is being downloaded of a HTTP url rather than an HTTPS url.

I had to manually turn off that restriction in the firefox download to get the font downloaded. May be a good idea to have the download initiated from a HTTPS url
Inertia, mostly. The official press release on August 10th linked to https://github.com/CompVis/stable-diffusion and diffusers didn't add support for Stable Diffusion until 5782e0393d on August 14th. There has been a ton of work on adding features on top of the CompVis Github release and backporting that work to Diffusers just isn't as interesting as adding new features to the existing fork. There has been some adoption of Diffusers though.

Woman arrested after protester holds anti-monarchy sign in Edinburgh
I find python packages quite easy to work with :) plus they're similar to ruby gems.

You create a venv or bundle, list requirements in a text file, then ask it to install things for you.

And if you need custom stuff, you can just pip install a .whl file, too.

I have yet to encounter a case where it's not working as expected, so my answer would be that python isn't getting fixed because it's not broken.

wontfix, works for me
> I am exploring something very similar, but for a different language.

Which language if I may ask? I'd like to branch out into other languages too in the future (preferably into something that's easier to parse than Japanese), but since I'm nowhere near done with Japanese at this point it's probably going to take many more years until I do so.

> I am curious if you considered making this a business (as in paid features/subscription based) and if not why not?

I do already have some Patron-only features. For example, normal users get access to two different voices for the audio files, while Patrons get access to four; Patrons get early access to work-in-progress new features, etc.

But inherently I'd like to keep the base product, and in consequence the major essential features, free. It's probably a horrible business decision, but I recognize that not everyone can actually pay, and I want those people to be able to use my site too. I was once poor too, so I know how it is.
There is no "fast path out of this mess".

If you really dig in the topic, you see that the major problem is that most packages use setuptools for packaging, which includes a setup.py which is executed during installation/dependency resolution and can change the set of dependencies dynamically based on host machine attributes.

And sadly that's not just a theoretical feature, but one that a lot of libraries in the wider ecosystem take advantage of (which some of them not seeing a need for changing the behaviour).

If we really would like to enforce Poetry-style package management, migration effort that's almost as big as Python 2 -> 3 will be necessary.

The author actually says: it's not the dumbest way, because it does find a solution.

Here's the most obfuscated way to generate a maze.
Compile

char*M,A,Z,E=40,J[40],T[40];main(C){for(*J=A=scanf(M="%d",&C);
-- E; J[ E] =T
[E ]= E) printf("._"); for(;(A-=Z=!Z) || (printf("\n|"
) , A = 39 ,C --
) ; Z || printf (M ))M[Z]=Z[A-(E =A[J-Z])&&!C
& A == T[ A]
|6<<27<rand()||!C&!Z?J[T[E]=T[A]]=E,J[T[A]=A-Z]=A,"_.":" |"];}

with clang -fwritable-strings -Wno-implicit-function-declaration and enter a desired height. Gcc no longer accepts the -fwritable-strings option, so we can alternatively avoid writable strings by making the top line one character longer:

char M[3],A,Z,E=40,J[40],T[40];main(C){for(*J=A=scanf("%d",&C);

A woman was arrested after a protester held an anti-monarchy sign “f*k imperialism, abolish monarchy” ahead of the accession proclamation of King Charles III in Edinburgh.

Police Scotland said the arrest was made outside St Giles’ Cathedral, where the Queen’s coffin is due to be held on Monday.

Moments before the proclamation on Sunday afternoon, a demonstrator appeared in the crowd opposite the Mercat Cross.

Officers appeared behind her and took her away, prompting the crowd to applaud.

One man shouted: “Let her go, it’s free speech,” while others yelled: “Have some respect.”

A police spokesman said a 22-year-old woman was arrested “in connection with a breach of the peace”.

It came after hecklers were heard booing during the event.

During the first proclamation of Charles, the Lord Lyon King of Arms gave a speech before declaring “God save the King”, which the crowd repeated.

One man was heard booing throughout the cheers.

The national anthem was then sung but, afterwards, people could be heard calling for a republic.

After Lord Lyon King led three cheers, saying “hip hip” to replies of “hooray”, booing was heard for a second time.

Some mourners called the hecklers “disrespectful”, saying they should have avoided the proclamation if they believe in a republic.

Helen Smith, 48, from Livingston, told the PA news agency: “I believe everyone does have a right to protest, but I thought it was the wrong place at the wrong time.

“(It was) incredibly disrespectful to the event that we were just seeing.”

Ms Smith, an engineer, she feels it dampened the event for the rest of the crowd.

“We saw the police keeping an eye on things behind us, and we thought something was going to kick off, and it did,” she said.

“We just felt disappointed because the eyes of the world are on us at the moment.

“It’s a massive moment in history. We’ve had the death of the longest-serving monarch we’ve ever had, we’ve got the new King being proclaimed, and then we have the heckling at the back and the shouting.”

Ann Hamilton, 48, said she thought the interruptions were “terrible”.

Ms Hamilton, who travelled from Dumfries, told PA: “There’s tens of thousands of people here today to show their respect.

“For them to be here, heckling through things, I think it was terrible. If they were so against it, they shouldn’t have come.

“Once everyone was singing God Save The King with their full voices, it was drowning them out.”

Donald Maclaren, 64, of Livingston, added: “It’s very disrespectful. There is a time and a place if you want to protest, but this isn’t it.

“Somebody shouted, ‘Republic now’. Then, when they were doing the three cheers, somebody was booing.”

Liz Maclaren, 67, also branded it “disrespectful”, saying: “The boos sounded like one person.”

I am a cyclist. We shouldn't pretend like all ire against cyclists is just about commuting. Some do ride purely for fun. On back roads, the impatience probably has something to do with "they don't need to be here". I don't endorse that, but, well, people can be less than great.

And yes, many cyclists rock the spandex. And they should be, because no one wants an angry nether region.

I'm not arguing for anything really. Just pointing out that your interpretation of history is incorrect.
The answer is a simple "no".

You can't bike for transit "at home".

You can't bike for enjoyment "at home".

And biking to exercise is a different form of exercise than riding an exercise bike. Raising resistance is not the same as going uphill. Maintaining your bike in balance and steering/controlling it is not the same as sitting on a static frame.
Not to mention, the overall experience is completely different, and that can also matters for reasons related to quality of exercise.
What I miss about Pascal is its offset indices. You could start an array at 0, 1, 42, or what have you. Useful in rare circumstances!

Does Odin's build system solve all the problems Bazel does, e.g. scalable and nearly perfect caching? And why were you under the impression it is only useful for C, given that those problems need to be solved in a wide variety of languages? Cargo is best-in-class, but the build times for our monorepo convinced us to switch to building Rust with Bazel just for the CI experience.

This is, in fact, the primary problem I have with Odin: it builds on almost nothing that came before it, assuming that everything is C/complex/hidden/just generally NIH, and throws away the good with the bad.

Using haproxy^1 as an example

To redirect to the most recent archive.org capture, I use a date in the distant future such as 203001234567890. This will automatically redirect to the latest capture.

http-request set-uri https://web.archive.org/web/20301234567890if_/http://%[req.hdr(host)]%[pathq] if { hdr(host) -m str -f hosts-archive.txt }

To redirect to the earliest archive.org capture, I use 1. This will automatically redirect to the earliest capture.

http-request set-uri https://web.archive.org/web/1if_/http://%[req.hdr(host)]%[pathq] if { hdr(host) -m str -f hosts-archive.txt }

If I want to all requests for example.org files to retrieve from archive.org instead of example.org, I do something like

The Go team did an amazing work to add generics with a very small impact on the language. They even managed to add generics without breaking the Go 1.0 compatibility guarantee.

Go is still a small language, even with generics.

As with most C++ terms, it means something completely perpendicular to what it implies. In general it means that deterministic destructors release a resource at the moment the value representing it goes out of scope, e.g. deallocating memory or closing a file handle.

IMO Odin is very wrong on this point: the important thing about destructors is that you know where to find them, so e.g. you can have closures that know how to free their captures when they are freed. There's nothing like that for Odin.

Long, detailed going through evidence the Apollo Moon landing was a hoax.

Before sparking a discussion about the fact itself or calling me a "flat-earther" or sorts, I strongly suggest to watch it with open mind. It may not change the way you perceive the alleged Moon landing, but nonetheless challenging your thoughts and beliefs is something every curious intellectual should do.

Yes, like said. Also I did not see your first draft of writing before. First which comes to my mind when seeing it: It seems you are not referencing any existing work of scientists, which will be a large caveat for many, because that is like science works – enhance what others have done, prove your starting or side points of your arguments by citing what others found, do not do everything from scratch.
Don't write about what you think something is like (e.g. NN), but prove it is like that by citing the right sources, which you have read.
Four things: you also want to specify a python version.

> thus it's always the brake pads stopping the car, not the tires?

The tires are the only thing in contact with the ground. All deceleration force can only come from the grip between tires and the ground[1]. The brake pads in most installations can easily lock up the tires (which means now you only have sliding coefficient of friction instead of rolling friction). In other words, what matters is tire grip.

Buy the grippiest tires you can afford to run.

[1] Well, cars with aero downforce also get a lot of deceleration from that. A Formula 1 car will decelerate at more than 1G merely by lifting off the throttle, without touching the brakes. But none of this is relevant to street cars.

I've moved on from gamification and thoroughly removed all such interventions from everything. I found the extrinsic nature of the mechanisms wasn't helping and were creating a distraction in and of themselves.

I think you have to join two kinds of communities, customer-oriented and peer (and potential competitor) oriented. You need to join communities where your prospects hang out so that you can understand their needs better. And it's very useful to be able to compare notes with peers.

There's this cutlery by Danish designer Kay Bojesen from the late 30s which I've been eyeing for a while:

It has very simple lines that work well on any table but also optionally comes with pretty much any accessory you can think of.

They're still making them new but I'm on the hunt for a large set popping up used eventually.

On a side note I bought a set of Korean stainless steel chopsticks and spoons on a trip to SK a while ago. I mainly got them for the chopsticks, but I noticed that the deep rounded spoons were really nice for eating soup.
Thanks, wouldn't have guessed to search for that list. In the entry for Escomb Church, is says there are "only four complete Anglo-Saxon churches remaining in England, the others being St Lawrence's Church, Bradford-on-Avon, Greensted Church and All Saints' Church, Brixworth."

Looking through the list, it seems that in the Anglo-Saxon portions of all those buildings, any arches were relatively narrow and crudely fashioned compared to subsequent Norman style. So I guess there was quite a gap in sophistication of architectural knowledge between Britain and the Continent in the 11th century.
