I have found that meaninglessness leads to deep anxiety and confusion. I'll use family relationships as an example. If you do what you want and assign your own meaning to your actions and choices, those around you will probably not see the same meaning in your actions. To be more specific, if you think "I can flirt with this woman at work. It's fine. It's harmless." Things can quickly escalate and either your spouse will soon feel abandoned, or you will lose your job or worse, you will develop a relationship with someone besides your spouse and live a compartmentalized life. This, eventually, will come to an end and many lives will be torn up as a result of you saying "I can do what I want."

"I can do what I want and make it mean whatever I want" is a very selfish delusion that completely ignores that your actions affect those around you (who are also assigning meaning to your actions and words) and that those around you affect you as well.

Another danger to this is the delusion that you always know what is best for you. Many times in my life, I have gotten advice from someone who was watching me and who told me I was being reckless or foolish, and that I should think about what I was doing carefully and choose another path. I could have easily dismissed them (and often did), but sometimes those outside of our head can see what we are doing or where we are heading more clearly than we can with all of our justifications.

In short, meaninglessness means that at any time you and anyone around you can decide that marriage doesn't mean commitment anymore. You can decide that your spouse cheating on you is a good thing. You can look forward to feeling betrayed. And hopefully your children will just be able to change their minds about how their parents feel about each other. And hopefully they don't change their minds about how they feel about you. It's all fine because you can just make it mean whatever you want!

While it's feasible now, part of the reason it's historically not shown is that tax can vary by city borders, or even intersections of city/county borders where a city spans two counties. Zip codes aren't even enough granularity to get the right rate.
Things can always be looked the other way. Being short is an opportunity to play the game in hard mode, showing everyone that you've got skills. Sometimes I wish I was born black for that reason.

Yes, but competing employers can do exactly what you do, and offer applicants more pay. By foregoing on training, they can free ride off of the training the subject employer paid for.

>>The fact that you pivot immediately into an irrelevant argument against income tax has no bearing on the companies using debt as a way to force employee retention.

Taxation is in fact how we solve the problem of trading liberty for security in the absence of indentured servitude. To elaborate: people need economic security, and many are willing to submit to tax obligations, or in the past, to indentured servitude, to get it.

So it's entirely relevant to the question of whether this kind of training for debt arrangement is consistent with accepted social mores, no matter how much you may want to over-simplify and wrap up the discussion.

In a similar way that the best chess engine developer is not the best chess player there's little reason to think that the best person to detect chess engine use is the best player.
We are... Spark's DataFrame is essentially a relational algebra AST-builder. Microsoft's LINQ interprets SQL directly in at compile-time. All of these, however, run queries more or less directly in the system in which they're specified.

It helps to think of SQL strings as an untrusted wire format. Yes, parsing is a pain, but it comes with two main benefits:
(i) The wire format is human writable/interpretable, with all the accompanying benefits, and
(ii) The wire format is easily extensible in a predictable way.

That latter one is particularly useful in keeping SQL's ecosystem open. Take a front-end library like SQLAlchemy or ScalikeJDBC for example. It's not practical for any one such library to support every extension provided by every database engine. SQL provides a fall-back for when you need a back-end feature that hasn't been implemented in any given front-end.
Trade-off ? What trd-of ?
One opening move can’t possibly confirm cheating since the opening moves played by the best chess engines are also the same moves played by the vast majority of human players.

Yes there's a lot of ethnic tensions in Russia, and that's why the Russian government will avoid playing the 'ethnic hate' card - until it wants to have the country to rule that is mostly intact.

Well, Russians got to be the big brother because they're rather... big. Not just in numbers - they also have the two beating hearts that are Moscow and St. Petersburg. Having said that, on the Ukrainian side there are a lot of historically important places such as Kiev the mother of all Russian cities. And Belarus really has the legacy of Lithuanian Commonwealth which can be viewed as an East Slavic state as a competitor to Russian states.
Kotlin is certainly a good general purpose language. But many developers would prefer to be able to use Java for Android development including the excellent tool chain and numerous libraries. It's a shame that commercial disputes between Google and Oracle have left us with this fragmented platform.

The comparison doesn't make much sense because for fair comparisons you have to measure decompressor size plus encoded image size. The decompressor here is super huge because it includes the whole AI model. Also, everyone needs to have the exact same copy of the model in the decompressor for it to work reliably.

Cool! Looks promising!

Some UI/UX remarks...

- I would expect to find the 'new sheet' option near the sheet list (on top or on the bottom perhaps?).

- Creating a new sheet does not give an empty sheet (instead it presents the same info as in the preloaded example).

- How do you deal with different notations for numbers? Can I switch somewhere from #,###.## to #.###,##?

- Operators and currency is now displayed in gray, just like the comments. This hurts legibility more than it helps focus.

- When you can detect unit indicators, maybe allow users to click on them to change the unit to another (compatible variant). For example change kilometers to yards.

- Header and sub-header styles are quite similar, makes them hard to discern.

The challenge is that the stable diffusion images are only 512x512px, so I use other AI models to upscale them to print resolution.

Alternatively, you can upload existing designs, for example from https://lexica.art

As someone who has run many half marathons, one marathon and followed several training programs: no, that is not what happens. If you have not finished your training the only thing which happens is that you will probably run slower than you would have if you had finished your training. A common advice is to not follow the plan slavishly because that way there is only injury and burnout.

So, yes, races are deadlines but not deadlines you can rush towards because then your body will break and then you will fail the race for real. You still need to slowly and consistently build up your body just like if there was no deadline at all. It is much better to not have finished your training than to be injured.

> You can, however, create a system in which you consistently increase the number of miles you run.

This is indeed how you become a fast runner and how most training plans work, except they often peak at a mileage most people do not want to sustain to top the form right before the race.
While it’s not 100.00% true, I’ve found it a helpful lens to take the line of thinking that I am responsible for me, for my growth, for my performance, and for parts of [clearing] a path for me.

Putting the primary onus on someone else is an error that sub-optimizes your results. If your manager won’t do their minor part while you do your major part, you need to leave, but taking this lens makes that apparent much sooner than waiting for them to “grow you”.

I've read this again and again in this forum and other dev communities, so I didn't hesitate. I can't say I love SQL, but it's not that bad, Databases look interesting to me.
I used to 'work from home' on and off in 1976 with a portable teletype. Two rubber cups would take a telephone handset. The keyboard and a roll of paper were my working environment. The very slow line speed was all the printer could keep up with.
It's much harder than it sounds. Firstly a top level player will match the top engine move 65+% of the time when playing legit, so it isn't that unusual to have a run of quite a few engine moves in a row (especially since they aren't independent, some positions are easier to play than others).

Second, as Magnus has said in the past, if he has the ability to consult an engine at a single point in the game (of his choosing) he would be unstoppable. The reason is that in each game there are relatively few 'critical points' at which the result is decided.
I bought a cool book yesterday which is all about gravel trails in the UK. I had never heard the term gravel bike until reading it.

Silly question but can I do these trails on my full suspension mountain bike, or will I be mercilessly mocked and possibly chased out of town?

I already have a mountain bike and a road bike so not keen to add a third!
Gravel bikes are good commuters, if you like drop bars. Many commuters prefer flat bars for the more upright riding position, which allows for a better field of view for misbehaving drivers.

You still also have the classic problem that higher end bikes lose all the commuter friendly features. Carbon forks and frames often lose mounting points for fenders+rack. The marketing vision of a gravel bike is someone expecting to get muddy and who isn't trying to stuff a laptop into a saddle bag. Durable, maintenance friendly choices like threaded BBs and easy cable routing go away. You're stuck with heavy bikes with poor gear ranges, super low end components, cable brakes, etc.
I watch a lot of videos on YouTube, mostly metal machining content, lectures, or long form background music.

I think the other issue if we compare it to JS is the unfortunate reliance on C that python has. When Chrome came around, JavaScript was already standardised and there were many competing implementations which had to conform to ECMAScript and give users a relatively consistent experience. So when Google made V8 they could kind of go crazy with optimisations as long as they conformed to the spec.

Python on the other hand has one real implementation, and the ecosystem has become extremely intertwined with that implementation. Implementing a new Python interpreter is great, but it rarely gains traction because most of the ecosystem is so reliant on CPython specific modules that don’t work in the new interpreter so they never really get off the ground.
I have no real world experience, I've seen things in Stack Overflow that I hardly manage to understand.
That's why there are query parameters (see https://www.sqlite.org/lang_expr.html#varparam for the comprehensive SQLite implementation) and automatic escaping. Not to mention tests and code reviews.

A skinsuit or roadsuit will definitely make you faster on the bike. It's pretty easy to measure the effect with a power meter.

Weirdly "aero socks" are both a thing and make a big difference to the point that they are heavily regulated by the UCI.

Any cylindrical part of the bike or rider is going to perform badly so if you can encourage the airflow to stay attached around it you reduce the amount of effort required to move you forward, hence aero clothing being a big deal.

If you're a serious cyclist then it's pretty easy to spend money on good quality clothing.
That's pretty interesting. It really undersells itself in the intro description where it sounds something more like clang's ubsan -fsanitize=bounds, but in actuality it's adding other features as well including generics. Although that said, it's somewhat odd that memory lifetime is entirely ignored by it. All the changes seem to be laser focused on bounds checks and bounds checks only (with generics being to eliminate `void*` specifically so that, you guessed it, bounds checking can be done)

The history of the rats is interesting too. The first human settlers probably brought rats, and successive waves of settlers bring more, and better, rats. When Europeans show up, they too bring new rats. But we today might get the idea it's all their fault, they're just the last straw.

If you're a moderately successful Pacific rat living on Aotearoa and white settlers just showed up on a boat then even though you're an invasive pest the rats on that boat are as a big a threat to you as to the native wildlife.

But with parameters you don't need to do that, or in any other scenario where only (literal) values change.

On the other hand, if you were importing data and each line specified which table and column it had to go into you'd probably have to write a new SQL statement each time.

He ruined two tournaments in a row, first by withdrawing from the middle of a round robin tournament and second by intentionally throwing a game. If Niemann now ends up qualifying by less than 3 points the guy in 9th will justifiably be extremely upset.

There were many people who defended him withdrawing from Sinquefield but throwing a game is just embarressing, especially in the qualification stage.

I noticed in your original post that you didn’t address the objective truth of Christianity, only that it has helped you.

What does one do if one simply cannot believe in the supernatural because of the lack of evidence?

I think you’re being a bit uncharitable with the consequences of nihilism — or to be more precise, metaphysical naturalism. I haven’t met very many people, even non-religious people, who truly believe that they can just do whatever the hell they want because nothing matters. If I met people like that, I’d cut them out of my life. Even if you don’t have an intrinsic motivation to do good, you just can’t escape the fact that if you’re an asshole and not a sociopath, your life will probably suck.

The truth is that it’s possible to be a well-adjusted, loving human being while also believing that life is objectively meaningless. (Though ironically, in my anecdotal experience finding happiness as a metaphysical naturalist is harder if you grew up with religion and then left it, like myself). Today we can draw from stoicism, optimistic nihilism, secular humanism and others to help us along the way.

All this said, I do not know whether a worldview divorced from objective meaning is better for building a healthy society. I suspect it’s more difficult without religion, which is one of the reasons religion is so widespread.

Wow... and rust programmers wonder why rust has a stigma? So I guess John Carmack is inferior and is not an ultimate craftsman.
What does the expression "over the board" mean?
Because the algorithms that offer "quantum supremacy" all are effectively analog algorithms, and rely on phase shifts to do the heavy lifting. Any small phase shifts get amplified quickly and swamp the usefulness.

All known "quantum error correction" algorithms are focused on not flipping qubits, and ignore phase.

For instance, using Grover's algorithm to crack a 128 bit key requires 2^64 quantum operations in sequence. To make this happen your phase shift and interaction between the qubits has to be low enough that it doesn't accumulate to the level sufficient to flip a single qubit in all that time.

You'd need signal to noise ratios of about 380 dB to make this happen. This would be 220 dB more!!! than detecting the signal from the Voyager (10^-20 watts) probe right next to a SuperNova explosion (10^40 watts)

Then the people in that area can pass laws to regulate this I guess? That's the government's duty after all. But short of violating an explicit law, why are employers obligated to care about how many good jobs are in an area? It is also an economic function, if it is for high demand jobs with low supply of employees you won't see this.
