That's what I'd imagine too, but thinking it through... the keyboard on this thing is super lame. The lack of a Delete key alone would piss me off if trying to do any real writing.

I don't see a "travel" use case that couldn't be served by a MacBook Air (with the Karabiner utility to fix ITS insufferable lack of a Delete key).

To me this thing is for very limited technical scenarios, for example as a video signal generator or some kind of analysis or testing device to be used in the field. It might be pretty cool for something like that. Or for mobile hacking.
Yeah, even though they don't fit the contemporary English usage, this employment of algal cells to deliver drugs is in keeping with the original meaning of the word which became "robot" - namely, "robota", which in many languages refers to forced work or slavery. So, in a very real sense, these are robots.

I think this whole thing is a novel example of grift, which is by definition bad. The idea of every bad act being turned into an excuse to necessitate federal police action is… weird.
Yeah, Mode 5 is pretty different from any of the TMS9918A modes and it lacks those older modes (unlike the SMS VDP), but there are a number of funny details that only really make sense if you understand its predecessors. The bits in the command word are arranged strangely and the two registers that control the starting address for the background planes are laid out differently from each other.

What Lisp doesn't do is partial application: returning a function of N-M arguments when you only apply M arguments to one that needs N.

Languages which do that have issues representing very useful software engineering tools: optional arguments, variadic arguments and keyword arguments.

Currying is related to partial application; it refers to a technique for representing multivariate functions using only functions of one argument.

E.g. to obtain some f(x, y, z) we instead make it f(x)(y)(z), where f is a one-argument function applied to (x). That yields an anonymous one-argument function that is applied to (y), and that again yields a one-argument function applied to (z), which finally calculates f(x, y, z).

Whereas partial application is this: we already have a bona fide three-argument f(x, y, z), and the ability to call it with all three arguments at once. But for some reason, we call it as f(x)(y)(z). Now f needs 3 arguments but is called with just one, (x). So an anonymous two-argument function is produced which, if given two arguments will combine those with the one that was given and call f. Alas, that function is given only one argument, so it returns another one-argument function. When that one is given an argument, it all unwraps, and f ends up being called. These anonymous functions are understood to be produced because our notation is understood to have implicit partial application semantics. Under currying, things aren't implicit; f(x) is written as a one-argument function, which will have a lambda term in it. There is nothing to be implicit about in terms of application: all functions have one argument.
I am generally a happy user of Fastmail, but there are a few improvements I'd like:

1. The "report spam" button doesn't also delete the message on the web version. You have to select "report phishing" instead to do both at once.

2. The UI for updating mail filter rules was buried under several layers of options last time I tried using it, and I don't think there was an easy way to update a filter and re-apply it to existing messages without going through several menus.

3. The UI on Android is sluggish when opening messages at times.

I still prefer Fastmail over Gmail, however. A minimal version of the UI like old Gmail's HTML-only view would be nice.

I would not discard so easily that brains and fingers are not correlated, I know corvids, dolphins and other species show some level of intelligence but it's nowhere near humans so they are not in the same category to draw conclusions, so the only sample we have is humans, so until we have another sample I wouldn't make any affirmation one way or the other; also we know our advanced tool usage was not only develop due better brains but also due having opposable thumbs.
on the java stuff - why not something like graalvm or https://github.com/landlord/landlord ?
It does seem a lot of investment has happened in Java around this very problem. JVM bytecode has been relatively stable over decades.

Just wondering if it makes sense to make that investment. Some of these problems u will encounter when WASM gains a GC anyway. This is one of the big reasons why Graal doesnt target wasm backend. So this - one runtime/gc vs multiple is something that is a problem ull have to solve anyways.

I cancelled protonmail and the subscription ended right away instead of at the end of the paid period, so there’s that. Honestly it was just a bunch of little things that added up. I don’t remember any one thing that was specifically distasteful except for the cancellation. I’m on fastmail now.

One of the architects of this scheme wrote about it for the CIA's internal 'trade journal', which article has since been declassified. It adds an interesting additional dimension. This is very old-fashioned classic spycraft in some respects, but I'm surprised and impressed that the idea of a slow-burning software fuse was deployed so early.

I think the reason why fridges are so bad now is because manufacturers are chasing foods energy efficiency ratings. And to do so they basically put an underpowered compressor in it so that it uses less energy per unit of volume and achieves a better rating. The problem is that this drives the compressor too hard but just enough so that it generally fails after the warranty expires. That’s what I was told.

Same as how far manufacturers will make their cars heavier on purpose to achieve a better energy rating because the formula is basically engine power divided by total car weight. So a big engine on a small car has a worse rating that the same engine on a heavier car.

Anyway, another good tip I heard was to talk to appliance repair shops and ask them which ones they repair the least. And that’s the ones that are worth buying.

This article doesn't mention the Hutter Prize of course, since it was started a year later, but it looks like Matt has written about it since then: http://mattmahoney.net/dc/rationale.html

Right now the biggest thing holding Hutter Prize back is the shamefully low compute and memory limits: "Restrictions: Must run in ≲50 hours using a single CPU core and <10GB RAM and <100GB HDD on our test machine." http://prize.hutter1.net/

To even begin approaching intelligence, the compute and memory limits probably need to be 100x or 1000x larger.

A good bed is an essential factor that enhances your ability to sleep well. It is a one-time investment that you make to improve your ability to sleep better. Hence, the selection should be a wise one. Apart from the lighting, ambiance, and ventilation, a comfortable mattress and bed are important to give you a sound of good sleep. This e-commerce site provides you best collection of beds. However, most people tend to ignore this essential component and end up making the wrong decision.
There is a high correlation between a night of good sleep and the quality of the bed. A night of good sleep is also important to boost overall health. Thus, it can also be said that a good quality bed will uplift your overall health due to the direct relationship between these factors. One cannot go searching for beds now and then. Therefore, it is a one-time investment you make that will provide for you for the rest of your life. Spending generously perhaps becomes an important factor here because you need to consider the quality and brand. Instead of waking up irritated and exhausted every day, make changes to your bed and let those changes reflect on your mood and overall health. Today, decide to make a difference to your disrupted sleep pattern due to a poor-quality bed.

Also, I don't know if this was part of your critique, but are you also mentioning that the "a" variable is not in the suggestion? The reason behind that is long names, such as "super_special_file" would greatly increase the length of the error messages, making it hard to see the "meat" of what is being changed. Hence the x and y naming.

Perhaps I should add a flag to allow verbatim (or close to it) errors. Recreating the source lines exactly will be pretty hard, but I think we can do better here.

Radical ideology craves credibility. I would suppose that for that reason, the regimes interested in treating a subset of people as inferior would look for experts who could testify to that fact. These end up being doctors and psychiatrists, since they are considered authorities on the human body and mind respectively.

As for doctors themselves, I would think they are exactly like any other group of people: when a radical regime establishes itself, some will embrace it, some will be bullied into compliance, and others will be violently opposed. You can find examples of all of those in any historical regime.

If "we have the API but not the docs" is a thing, what's the meaning of "we don't have the API" then? Not being able to access the API at all? Failing auth/auth?
Not at all. These serve actual useful purposes, namely the reduction of risk. A CDO/CLO literally just structures a diversified portfolio of many tiny debts. Lending a mortgage to one homebuyer is risky... Lending a million mortgages to a million homebuyers is much less risky.

A derivative simply transfers risks to parties that are more able to withstand it. It's a fancy word for insurance, and nothing more. Imagine a world without currency or interest swaps... Global trade would be so much more difficult if companies like Apple were unavoidably making a gamble on the Indian Rupee when they started selling iPhones in India. Apple doesn't want to be in the currency speculating business, it's risky and they're better at making technology products. Currency swaps insure them against swings in the value of foreign currencies that could incur billions of losses.

CDOs have a bad name because everyone and their mother has seen big short and thinks they're a genius but the CDOs themselves aren't risky unless the underwriting standards on the loans are garbage. And if that's the case, the fact that CDOs exist is irrelevant anyway.

I don't want to call your comment ignorant, but you are lacking a lot of the information necessary to see why it's not that easy.

For starters: Insulin is quite long acting. Maybe 4 hours for some injected "short-acting" types. Regular insulin (like the one from the pancreas) acts for maybe 6 hours. The ratio of how much insulin you need for a given weight of carbs doesn't stay constant. If you inject too much insulin, if you raise your carb intake, that leads to a higher ratio. Physical exercise modifies the ratio in a short-term fashion. Inflammation, like from a cold or other infection, can raise the ratio significantly. You could model the situation with a bunch of differential equations, and that's what a lot of scientific

Most of these variables can't even be estimated precisely enough because there is too little data for too much variation. ML/AI is good at using information in the dataset that is hard to describe or see for Humans. But it can't use information that just isn't in the input data, it's not magic. For Type-2 diabetes there are relatively simple rules that work remarkably well. Type-1 is a lot harder, partly because a lot of the "buffering" of the system dynamics is missing.
It absolutely is. We could have obtained exactly the same positives by building new things. The net difference in benefits is the entire insane per resident cost. It's exactly as bad as it looks.

> I am paid to write code not sit in 10 meetings a day.

Unless you're some kind of modern-day ornamental hermit, writing code is unlikely to be the end goal; more likely you're getting paid to produce something useful, something for which communicating and understanding the problem is often far more important than actual coding.

> If I raise the issue everyone gets all pouty.

This does not sound like a healthy working relationship, although I'm not sure the problem's on their end.

> There is an unspoken feeling of being forced to attend every meeting assigned to you just in case something feels useful.

Well, nut up and get over it. Either attend or don't, but don't half-ass it. The surest recipe for pointless meetings that go on for too long is meetings where half the participants are coding instead of paying attention.
I'm right wing and listen to lots of right wing media. The current right is not against anyone's skin color.

I love the idea and I also agree that there is so much duplicated effort but the difficulty of making the "one service to rule them all" is that there is pressure for it to be all things to all people, at which point, it becomes harder to use for a simple use-case.

Take the crypto microservice. Someone says, e.g. "I notice that it doesn't support Argon2". If it doesn't, I can't use it, I would need to write my own library. Arguments ensue about you don't need Argon2 or "why not contribute the change to the library?". Maybe the maintainer doesn't want to accept the PR because they don't think the library needs it or they are not sure that the quality is high enough to accept. The library gets forked internally and the fork takes on a life of its own.

I don't want to be negative but my experience is that people have a certain way of doing things and unless these services do it in that way, people won't live them.

There are other ways in which they wouldn't be able to be reused like if people don't know how to build/deploy Go or they are only looking for something simple but the fully featured libraries are too hard to understand.

Maybe having something is better than nothing but I think the saying is something like, "in trying to be all things to all people, you end up being nothing to any of them".

I really hope I am wrong though because the amount of duplicate work in the world depresses me as an engineer!
They are locked forever to your account after you create them. I created one months ago, deleted it, but Fastmail has a history page that lists all the masked accounts you've ever created, with the possibility to restore them (IIRC), which is the sanest and safest option. Recycling names would be a security nightmare for users.

I rarely use it but I think it's Fastmail's killer feature. They've done a great job with it IMO.
...but that would require flow, right? (that is, closing of the flow too fast will basically lead to a shockwave rupturing the pipe).

In this case, the pipes were basically being used as pressure vessels (I believe it was quoted in the media that pressure in one of the pipes was 105bar/1,500psi or so before the leak sprung).

With nothing but static pressure, I have a hard time seeing how such a pipeline may be sabotaged in SW alone - doubly so as it, as far as I can tell from media reports, really is the proverbial dumb pipe - valves and thingamajigs at either end, but the pipeline itself is essentially just a pipe with no shutoff valves throughout. (Which, in itself I find hard to believe, so I probably had better dig a little bit more!)

Both you and the parent comment have mistook partial function application for currying.

Partial function application:

incr = partial(add, 1)
# or
def incr(x):
return add(x, 1)
z = incr(4)

(Side note: parent comment made a classic mistake, you shouldn't use a lambda if you're just going to assign it to a local variable, you should use a nested function definition.)

Currying is function that returns a function:

def curried_add(x):
def inner(y):
return add(x, y)
return inner
z = curried_add(1)(4)
I think your original should be clear that you work for Google. It may certainly affect people’s judgement of your comment.
