Here are my two cents about events, in-person and virtual.

- Please, no fake influencers. If you give off the vibe that you are selling something or promoting yourself, I have already turned off or logged off.
- Emphasize the message. No long introductions. What is it you are telling me? I am here for the earth shattering message you said you were going to tell me. Fill in the details later.
- Your monologue should be finished in 20 minutes. The interesting part is the Q&A. Be prepared for the Q&A. Yes, the audience will ask stupid questions because we didn't get what you were telling us. Repeat your message ad nauseum until we get the point.
- Wrap up and give us an email so we can contact you.
Controlling what content is rendered on a site is speech itself. Government making rules infringes on my right what my software can and can’t display. It would be like the government telling Wikipedia can’t edit their articles.
Because he can use his rational powers of observation and inference (otherwise known as instinct) to judge other peoples' assertions about the world. Studies, experts, and statistics are not required to analyze a narrative.
And when they starve or go homeless in the process of “learning the business”?

Spherical cows don’t work in physics, let alone economics. Minimum wages are suboptimal but starving is worse.
Yes, I'm totally aware of that.
> I seriously wonder why no one did that before (put a context-free language in front of C++)

My guess is either yes, macros, or if you're going to write a new language, you can skip C++, output object files, and make them compatible at link time.
The bit about RG Collingwood sounds very interesting. Could you provide some examples?
> I'm not AngloAmerican, you prejudicial, Racist fuck

If you talk like one, walk like one, act like one, for the purpose of a discussion, you are one.

And save your faux outrage. Angloamerican is a term widely used in political science and history.
The decision[0] gives different logic (quoting from page 85):

If a firm’s core business is disseminating others’ speech, then that should weaken, not strengthen, the firm’s argument that it has a First Amendment right to censor that speech. In PruneYard, for example, the shopping mall was open to the public—but for the purpose of shopping, not sharing expression. So it was perhaps tenuous for the State to use the public nature of the mall to justify a speech-hosting requirement. Cf. PruneYard, 447 U.S. at 95 (White, J., concurring in part) (noting that California’s hosting requirement involved communication “about subjects having no connection with the shopping centers’ business”). But here, the Platforms are open to the public for the specific purpose of disseminating the public’s speech. It’s rather odd to say that a business has more rights to discriminate when it’s in the speech business than when it’s in some altogether non-speech business (like shopping or legal education).

A point a lot of commenters here seem to be missing is that it would be perfectly legal under the law to ban all discussion of politics, regardless of viewpoint. The law just says that if you're a site with more than 50 million users, you cannot dictate which political parties your users are allowed to write favorably about and ban users for having opposing viewpoints.

This opinion is just badly written and badly reasoned. It's not even well written enough that it is worth trying to debate. Of course the judges in question were rated unqualified by the ABA (which is a really low bar) so not surprising.

Yea - I wouldn't.

I'd rather not have such direct representation of myself out there - invariably people would recognize you, and invariably they would pass the video around social groups. Just the way things work in the social media era.

Also, this could really hurt you if a video with this sorta subject matter/content would be passed around your place of work. This is about to get bitter so please take with a grain of salt: I've learned that most people are gossipy and will often not give people the benefit of the doubt. People judge others to bolster their ego and elevate their own social standing. Even if it was something out of your control like childhood trauma, people will still extrapolate their own opinions.

Then there's the "nothing's ever deleted from the internet" trope - even if I needed it taken down and the original uploader agreed, the content could easily exist elsewhere. I guarantee there's people doing reaction content to this.

All-in-all I functionally can't see the benefit of doing one of these outside of $... and I agree with other posters that it's problematic. It reminds me of photography class in college where all of these kids would photograph the homeless. Everyone thought they were brilliant by shining a light on poverty or something.... Really, they were just privileged asshole kids with savior complexes waving money in front of people who didn't have the option to turn it down; only to put these people on display in school galleries where the subject of the photo would never be allowed.
Everyone can have care like the VA!
It doesn't really matter. Even the cleanest stoves output a fair amount of particulate matter [0]. The range in the EPA's database is 0.3 grams/hr to 2.5 grams/hr. That's not a huge range, and it's a lot of particulate matter in your air by any standard.

Also, frequency and volume counter dispersion pretty well. That's why cities are smoggy: all the pollution from cars and cooking (lots of tailpipes, vents, or "chimneys") adds up. These cities are far worse environments for people specifically because of the air quality, which leads to higher rates of asthma, general respiratory disease, cardiovascular disease, developmental issues in children, and cognitive impairment.

There's a lot of defense of wood-burning stoves in this thread, from "get a catalytic stove" to "it's natural", but there's been a lot of research on this. It's bad, it's always been bad. I get the appeal: you can buy a piece of property, get off the grid, heat your home totally self-sufficiently. I've watched a lot of off-the-grid YouTube, I'm into it haha.

But heat's a really inconvenient problem if you face the fact that burning wood is very unhealthy, and very bad for society/climate change at scale. Maybe you can do geothermal, but not everywhere--plus you can't DIY, and getting a crew to come out isn't 100%.

Overall I agree with the sentiment that nuclear should have been the solution. I buy into the indictment of the greens; they got most things right, but it really does seem that they've succeeded in categorizing nuclear as a dirty fuel, and that will cost us significantly in the short term as we experience the dip between titrating off of fossil/nuclear fuels and ramping up our wind/solar/geo/tidal power.

That seems wild to me. I know alternate histories are hard, maybe we avoided a nuclear apocalypse by not converting all of our power generation to nuclear and I'm Monday-morning-quarterbacking the whole thing from an alternate timeline where humanity still exists to the degree where we still have things like internet forums. But a lot of things would be a lot better if we'd done that--and not blown up Earth.

> Anyone can log into Twitter and Facebook and see tweets and posts. They're public squares that are closely related to a mall rather than a private Starbucks location.

Okay, so the mall is a better analogy. But it still doesn't mean I can do anything I want at a mall. If I run in there and start shouting slogans at passers-by, I am going to be removed by mall security "for my viewpoint" because it's bad for business. And no, there isn't a list at the mall saying precisely what kinds of crazy behavior you're not allowed to bring in.

It's hard for me to see how Twitter isn't the same.
Uber Eats has to build a model that works worldwide, including in the US, Canada, UK, EU, etc. where unemployment rates are relatively low. I don’t think same hour delivery will ever be long-term sustainable in a country with low unemployment.

Emerging economies are a different story. Unemployment is usually high so there’s an abundance of workers to power the logistics behind these super apps.
I read the opposite from this article. Instead of being put off by a set of principles that should "only" be necessary when talking to a superior, I read it as a list of helpful principles that can be applied when disagreeing with anyone.

Like you, I agree that no special treatment should be given to people in a position of power. However, I see many of these things as sets of tools I can use to be more persuasive and likely to be heard by anyone I'm trying to discuss a difficult topic with.
Has any language solved the dilemma of the monotonically growing language in a satisfactory way? Or do we just abandon every language after 20-30 years of feature accretion? (That may in fact be the best solution)
The most typical case of this happening I've seen is an ancient unsupported legacy app. You still need to deploy it, but you only build it every few months or so. You rarely touch the thing, and its dependencies are pinned to old versions. The lack of support tends to drag down the rest of the monorepo, so it'll sometimes get "kicked out" as a bad citizen.

Really only reserved for the worst cases.
Reducing all objections to anything to "disagreement" or "not liking it" is a sure sign of bad faith discussion.
Curation has always been a job, but I think that someone who takes the flood of data, uses tools to search and index it, and make it usable, like librarians, and researchers, will always be in demand.

I don't think that we'll be doing much in space, I don't think AI is going to take over the world. We'll still be farming, and mining, and making things.

Farming will become a more localized activity, as the idea of regenerative agriculture spreads, the need for local management to manage things in detail, instead of massive monocultures, will require on site people.

There will also be a strong need for repair and maintenance. TV and Radio repair was a thing, then it almost died out... something like that will definitely be making a comeback in the years and decades ahead.

We'll not be able to simply discard all the embedded energy in a perfectly good item that only needs a small repair, or maintenance. A strong emphasis on quality and durability is coming.
FWIW, Chromium contains a Javascript compiler and developer tooling.
It's my right to be able to hear it.

As Frederick Douglass, a former slave and writer, wisely stated, “To suppress free speech is a double wrong. It violates the right of the hearer as well as those of the speaker. It is just as criminal to rob a man of his right to speak and hear as it would be to rob him of his money.”

I built a historical feed builder[0] so I can listen to previous episodes in one feed.

Most podcast feeds only include last ~100 episodes. Podcasts such as Planet Money and Radio Lab have more than 1000 episodes in total.

Manually combining the feeds is too time consuming and I enjoy building this tool.

> Everything sold in last fifteen years is A class or better for efficiency.

In case you are unaware: The European efficiency rating system is in fact percentile-based on some fictional reference appliance which is adjusted every few years [0].

A fridge with an "A" rating you bought 15 years ago would not get an A rating today.

(This sounds weird, but fights the problem that when the system was based on absolute values instead of percentiles, nearly fridges started being rated A, A+, A++ or A+++ to the point that the scale was very opaque to consumers.)

While I've used that conflict avoidance approach there are two sides of the issue you reference. On one side you have the people with the least experience and shortest perspective convinced that they know best while on the other hand are the people with the longest experience but most set in their ways are also convinced they're right.

In my experience both tend to be wrong more often than not. Neither wants to listen to the other for the reasons above and then fail to benefit from the others experience.
Citation needed. I'll offer another assertion without proof: white males are the most cancellable demographic in the world today.
Make it forced-inline and it should be more similar to the macro.
Then is it really a "totally different aspect"? You can't know the motivations behind why politics comes up in a conversation, and it's perfectly reasonable for someone who isn't the target of oppression to feel empathy for and advocate on behalf of the oppressed.
The impact of IO_Uring on the overall design is really interesting

Because it push you toward everything as async by default

I can easily imagine node.js implemented on top of that, for example

The move to async in modern languages also supports that very well

Note that this has major impact globally, not just for the IO portions of the system

In a way, this is function coloring all over again
This seems right, it's about reach but it's also about the actual mechanics of posting your message.

You can't treat social media like the telephone. It's more like writing a letter to the editor of the newspaper. The newspaper receives the letter (post). The newspaper decides whether and how to print it (algorithm). The newspaper then prints it for all to see. That's how social media works. It's not like the telephone where the phone company sets up the circuit and then bows out of the relationship between the speaker and the audience.
Is that true? Even back in the TV days I remember people going after advertisers who advertised on certain channels or programs (to protest if the advertisers were supporting "bad" content)
The article in its current format is almost unreadable.

The art of conversation is unknown to many. I attempt to explain to others that conversation is a volley - not a match. Serve up softballs, allow others to answer questions, and then return the favor by asking a question.

Conversations with the iPad generation are almost worthless. Conversations with strangers are often fruitless. I am silent for the most part because people cannot speak in a manner that would suggest they have any interest outside of their own pleasures.
> That said, by the time a company is large enough that 17% of it is more than 17 people the kind of startup organization you have wisely and correctly nodded to will have ceased to exist.

Not really. A lot of stuff having moved to services, a lot of stuff being handled in 'no code' manner have simplified organizations a lot these days. Today you can just offload a lot of things to SaaS vendors that can automatically handle those stuff. Instead of having to have entire teams dealing with it like how it was in the earlier decades. You just need a host of capable people to deal with those services on your side, by wearing various hats. So the 'startup format' seems to have become extended to larger organizations.
Metafilter was the place I learned to be civil online, and that just makes the current state of things all the more devastating.
A small critique of your code (though it does seem to me the overall quality is decent): watch out for unintended ADL. You call lots of unqualified namespace-level functions (like load(...)). This triggers ADL, and it doesn't look like it's always intentional.
The static analysis should be able to remain because a lot of the concepts he has implemented here are proposed/implemented for "syntax 1" as well, but they require attributes or specific styles. Therefore, the static analyzer should be written for regular C++23 and will support the defaults of "syntax 2".

As far as support in compiled libraries is concerned, that would depend on how those features are implemented in C++23 anyway.
I agree with the idea that someone who was convicted twice of sex crimes in a leadership role is a bad idea and that by including them you may be excluding others.

Although I am curious about your opinion about other senarios. What is the person was found guilty in a US college Title IX court? Or what if it was just an accusation online? These are the questions we should get clear answers to now so when they (inevitably) happen, we know how to act, we don't have a twitter debate war to decide.
To be fair, the US campaigning season is effectively 50% of the time; 6 months of primaries, six months campaigning, for mid-terms and full-terms (I doubt that's the right term). And terms are 4 years; so campaigning is going on for two years in every four. And that's national. In the USA, banning a documentary because campaigning is going on would be a bit drastic.

My antidote is to think about how I'd accomplish the task without a computer... and suddenly whatever the bug is seems pretty reasonable.

People used to use literal file cabinets on a regular basis. If you wanted to build something, you drew plans on paper. We recorded stuff on tapes.

A program crashing and losing and hour of work is annoying. But at least it's not spilling something on a paper and losing 3 hours.

I'd rather have kinda crappy software than no software.
I've missed a career opportunity to lead a super app for the Indian market. I truly regret it of course but I'm thankful at least for the truly enlightening conversations I've had the luck to have, with people having large scale jobsian visions and the means to achieve them.

It reinforced my appreciation for hiring processes, when one can be lucky enough to meet true leaders with exceptional visions.
I expected to hear a "periodicooooo".
100%. Only on leaving.
It also adds a lot of drag to iteration to have to go back and rework documentation.

On this kind of project, it's more than syntax-deep. Documentation would have a lot of reasoning and justification in it, which can take deep work to keep up to date.
Individuals have rights to be part of and participate in a group but legal entities that represent one or multiple people (you can have a corporation with one person) have not been recognized as a person until citizens united ruling and don't have rights. Speech made my people as part of an association or group is protected but speech made by a a person as part of their representation of a legal entity is not their own speech so it isn't protected. Similar to how a government official can censor your speech at their home but they can't censor your speech even at their home as part of their official function since that would be the entity of the government censoring your speech.

Throughout the US law there is a clear distinction between people acting on their own behalf or on behalf of some other entity. This is why the president isn't held accountable like a normal person because all of his actions during term are actions of an entity which is his office and therefore not an individual that can be treated equally as other individual persons.

At the most basic level, corporations and associations are not naturally existing so they can't have any natural rights, nor can it be claimed that they are a "person", legal or otherwise, because a person can only be a sentient life form which a legal entiry obviously is not.

In other words, pets and insects can more reasonably be called a person, even trees and germs, at worst you can extend it to inanimate objects after abandoning all reason but intangible fabrications meant to serve a legal purpose are not persons in the wildest stretch of the imagination.
> No it isn't. Anyone can log into Twitter and Facebook and see tweets and posts. They're public squares that are closely related to a mall rather than a private Starbucks location.

Fine. Nationalize them, remove all advertising, open up all the source code and infrastructure, and let open cyberwarfare commence.
The first amendment does not protect you against anything but the government. Full stop. Between people and people, corporations and corporations, and corporations and people it does nothing.

The opinion fails at this very basic fact because they want it to be false. Not because there's any law suggesting it is false, nor has there been in a hundred years, but because they dont like it they just decided to make it up.

The states do not get to change this. If you want something else pass an amendment, don't try to get a bunch of crazy unqualified judges to make a mess.
"The Haidbauer incident, known in Austria as der Vorfall Haidbauer, took place in April 1926 when Josef Haidbauer, an 11-year-old schoolboy in Otterthal, Austria, reportedly collapsed unconscious after being hit on the head during class by the Austrian philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein."

> import std; as default

Personally I think he should switch to using namespace std; as default as well. The compiler can warn if you alias the names, and all the std:: in C++ code is just noise and annoying to read and write.
Paying someone to migrate the site to something modern might be cost prohibitive. But there are plenty of MetaFilter users who have the expertise and would happily pitch in to move the site to a modern open source stack. But for years the MetaFilter policy was "we can't accept volunteer labor because (mumble mumble legal something)." So hopefully they'll eventually decide "the fact that programmatic changes take forever is killing us" and do whatever is necessary to make volunteer labor possible.

I guess they could also let volunteers work on ColdFusion, but they might not get many takers.

I haven't read the details of the case, but surely that's not what's at issue.

I assume that the government is arguing that they are allowed to prohibit private parties from restricting speech, not that the government is required to impose such a prohibition.

I can distribute a video easier now than at any point in the past. The same is true for text and audio. Can you imagine trying to distribute a video in like 1965? If ABC, NBC, or CBS didn't want it, what then? You could rent a local theater, assuming the theater owner will take your call and doesn't object to the content of your video. What if it's an anti American film, or criticizing the war in Vietnam?
Facebook doesn't own all the local roads or water mains though. They're one website. It's just as easy to go to twitter.com as it is truthsocial.com or mastodon.social.

If Comcast owned practically the only ISP in my area then yes they should be considered a common carrier and shouldn't be able to discriminate traffic that isn't trying to break their stuff. In that case they would be the company that owns the roads or the water mains. Facebook isn't like that in the slightest.
I'm all in favor of design for the sake of design. I've tried fly fishing a few times, and not surprisingly, found it quite difficult. There's a pond near me with no fish that's solely for fly fishers to practice. I can appreciate the need.

I grew up in the Midwest fishing on a lake with a spin-casting outfit. The arm movements you use for that are completely counterproductive for fly fishing.

So, yeah, I could learn to throw a fly. But life's too short. As superkuh says: fish are fish.
I've been playing a lot of Supertuxkart lately. It's a lot of fun and the story mode presents a good challenge IMO.
