To the privacy conscious, that’s a feature. I and other users pay them enough not to have to harvest, collect, train ml models on, or use our data or metadata in any way, for predications or other pseudo-features.
Sets are unordered. It doesn't even make logical sense when you think about it, it would make set insertion O(logn) which would absolutely wreck the performance. Your example just happens to accidentally work. Here's an example where it doesn't:

For the last month or so I was thinking it would be awesome to have a desktop with a lot of the most common GUI utilities written in python so that average programmers could have a stab at customizing it for their needs.

Oldest trick in the book was to write the agenda AND the minutes of the meeting in advance, run the meeting per the minutes, tweaking them on the fly and publishing them as soon as the meeting was done.

Only the minutes count as the results of the meeting. Works only in large, bureaucratic, political companies.

Angstroms are like cm - we could express everything as 10x mm or even 1/100 m, when you are deep in the subject matter having intuitive units facilitates communication by abstracting the 100pm or 0.1 to an A is helpful as that is the order of magnitude that covalent bonds exist within

eg Bohr radius is roughly half an angstrom and width of H2 gas is just under 3A

By expressing them in pm they actually lose some context as then they're all just numbers.

NS2 was started ten years ago and cost around nine billion euros. Nine billion buys a lot of insulation, heat pumps, and wind turbines over ten years. Wheras NS2 was only ever needed so that Russia can turn off gas for Ukraine without turning it off for Germany.
Yes. Thank you. It is important to be strict about this. Nations supporting and possibly benefiting from a war does not mean it has to be a proxy war.

I'm not an expert, but I read somewhere that Gazprom could escape a penalty for not delivering the gas that their contract states.

It should not be considered even a "secondary source". It's by intention an aggregator of secondary sources. Which secondary sources are included or excluded, particularly for sensitive or contentious topics, entirely depend on the bias and endurance of the editors of the article, so what you'll get is a grab-bag. Wikipedia has no effective means of detecting and countering, for example, a professional team of coordinated editors, or motivated activists.

As a rule of thumb, think high-school term paper. If that's good enough for your purposes, then sure, use it as a "source".
I certainly believe there were socialists who believed in the Soviet Union. And I believe there are still people today who do so. And I am not here to say the Soviet Union is everything conservatives say it is either.

My only contension is the idea that

> most of the socialistically leaning world was hopeful that the USSR might still be, to some degree, working out as hoped.

The Bolshevik one party system and its offspring, the USSR, were controversial among socialists from the October revolutiom on. It doesn't get a lot of focus today because pop history is so absorbed with the cold war and the "new left" movement in the U.S.

It's not a great analogy but it's kind of like how some Americans refer to Evangelical Christianity, simply as Christianity and therefore write-off for many purposes the Catholics and Orthodox Christians living all over the world.
Something that I forgot to mention in the other answers similar to this is that the Path().read_text() check only applies if the open() block is a single line, and that line is only used to read the contents of the file. If you are doing other things in that block, no error will be emitted. I agree that open() is pretty ubiquitous, but in certain cases (ie, if I am already using a Path object), using read_text() is a nice one-liner.
You can also buy Grandperspective from the app store for a few dollars to help support the overall development.
Interesting that you mention interfaces. Mostly I like Go, but one of my bugbears is the difficulty of finding out which interfaces are implemented by a type. It's much easier in Java.

That’s an interesting quote you got there. Let’s look at the surrounding sentences, shall we? Emphasis mine.

> But there’s something unsatisfying about declaring the size of the set of real numbers to be the same “infinity” used to describe the size of the natural numbers. To see why, pick any two numbers, like 3 and 7. Between those two numbers there will always be finitely many natural numbers.

> Remarkably enough, no matter how close any two distinct real numbers are to each other, there will always be infinitely many real numbers in between. By itself this doesn’t mean that the sets of real numbers and natural numbers have different sizes, but it does suggest that there is something fundamentally different about these two infinite sets that warrants further investigation.

So no, as rightfully pointed by other commenters, the article implies that density somewhat indicates that two cardinalities which is straight wrong as the rational are dense in the natural yet of the same cardinality. They are even dense in R which entirely defeat the point of the analogy. Density and cardinality are not related at all.

Maybe Gazprom has penalties in their contract when they don't deliver the gas. This way they could blame it on external factors. I read it somewhere but can't remember where.
We’ll, it’s creepy because of where the data comes from (in gmail). It reads common patterns in email, then uses that to make predictions.

The PID mindset, maybe with a "bayesian" bend, is generally the right idea. You have to realize from the outset that you're not going to predict the results of your actions correctly, and you can't even tell afterwards what effect your particular actions had. Which is frightening. Internal medicine is a lot about "let's try this common dosage and see what happens". It gets worse with an organism still growing, which means the dosages and effects have a long-term trend at the least.

In my (non-human-medical) opinion, low blood sugar is on average better than high blood sugar, especially for patients who don't need to walk around unsupervised and operate heavy machinery (i.e. cats, dogs, small children). An adult Human body only has on the order of 3g of sugar circulating in its blood at any time. We can easily generate blood sugar from protein. It's much harder to eliminate high blood sugar. Even extreme overdoses of injected insulin often only result in a coma that the patients can often recover from on their own because they metabolize the insulin and generate the glucose. I'm not recommending that, of course!

Low blood sugar however, is an immediate problem, high blood sugar is a long-term problem. Getting the balance right is hard, especially for Type-1 Diabetes. In overweight Type-2 patients (like I was) usually the patient's liver is so good at generating glucose that it buffers a wider range of insulin dosages and you have more time finding the lowest sufficient dose. Insulin is bad for your health, it means too much glucose is deposited everywhere in your body, leading to all sorts of problems. But too much glucose in the blood is even worse, so...
It’s really not that hard.

“Openly” is probably going to throw some people off here, because it’s knowable history but not widely broadcasted or widely known.

I think (and hope) your intent is to draw the parallel so similar programs targeting natives in the US (and Canada, I’ll add, they seldom diverge very far) can be viewed in the same light. I’m not adding much nuance besides noting that your wording could be misinterpreted as a dismissive “nothing new under the sun, happened openly in the US well after too” rather than what I think (and hope) you mean as a more inclusive “these programs which continued in the US very closely resemble fascist programs, and that’s important too”.
No, that's the exactly problem. Nobody knows why they ban accounts. And once an account is dead, it stays dead, no matter how much bad press they get (see the guy that sent a photo to their doctor).

Yes maybe but Photos only creates a copy of the file/image in order to be used from macOS (due to Sandboxing). So it's more a macOS connected to Photos feature than Photos alone.

a keyboard large enough to type on it with two hands (even if not using all 10 fingers) and a screen no larger than the keyboard. (no touchpad. it takes up way to much space for little gain), 4-8GB of ram and not to much diskpace. (lot's of diskspace takes more effort to back up)
Yeah, that's true. Also, pulling out a laptop attracts attention. I wonder if you could chain it to your belt like some people do with their wallets; then you couldn't forget it.
I wonder how it compares to the 1982 pipeline explosion the US caused in a similar situation:

https://www.smh.com.au/world/cold-war-hotted-up-when-sabotag...

At the time, it was the largest non-nuclear, man-made explosion in history.

(The grammar of the first few paragraphs of that story is odd, but the source it cites is solid, and it gets better after a paragraph or two -- couldn't find a better link.)
Thank you. I now will not consider switching to Fastmail.

Also, I don’t trust Australia on encryption.
Even if Python used the anonymous function syntax proposed, people would still call them "lambdas". If you want to have aa keyword for this, you might as well name it after what most people are going to type into Google when searching for it.
If the keyboard on this is 7 "inches" wide, that's 14.8 mm per key. I think 14 mm wide would be enough, so this is probably wide enough to type on with two hands. But by the same token, it's probably too big to fit comfortably in most pockets.
Climate change is going to displace an unfathomable amount of people all around the world. If you aren't already living in an 'ark' you soon will be. A lot of people will be extremely desperate and I expect we'll see a lot of them die right outside of our borders.

While the US should do its part to take in as many as it can we'll be dealing with it ourselves. The western US is facing increasing desertification, clean water is becoming more difficult to find, and the temps are rising which means eventually there will be a lot of people forced inland and out of the western US. It's going to get a lot more crowded around here.
You're right! I guess you can't rely on sets being iterated over in order (not that you ever should rely on that). Moreover I was trying to show that you can use lists, tuples, and sets as temporary iterable objects, though but no-one (that I have seen) uses sets in that way.
This!

I didn't know that. Fascinating to hear there actually is a native speaker of it. I was aware from reading the wikipedia article that Esperanto was championed by the Ba'hai and Oomoto religious groups, among others. I had also forgotten that Theosophy promoted it as well. Plenty of different Christian groups tried using it too, even Jack Chick, famous for his maligning of D&D.

An interviewer whom asks all the same questions is better suited in HR or hiring accountants. That's called a quiz, not an interview.

When interviewing, you do an actual interview, which is where you research whom you're interviewing to gain good questions to ask so you get good answers back.

The staleness and bore of interviewing is entirely the fault of the individual. Especially when they think whiteboarding compsci topics is meaningful.

I'm having a little trouble believing you unless by "rework" you meant "reflow".

Production reflow without extra added flux is normal. It's the goal for every assembly line anywhere and is almost always achieved.

Rework of existing joints after assembly without flux is just about impossible. The oxidation of the joints guarantees it. Many times the flux in the paste or wire is sufficient, but this is more true for through-hole than for surface-mount, mainly due to joint geometry and available volumes. If you are regularly reworking old fine-pitch surface mount joints previously assembled with no-clean flux, without flux of your own... then I'd like to know what materials you're using, because that is not possible in general. The "no-clean" fluxes are notorious for causing rework trouble, and they are difficult to clean off once reflow temperatures have been achieved (that's why we call them "can't-clean"). They are never active twice, so they must be removed and replaced once heated the first time. We have to use special solvent flux removers around here (based on DuPont's hellish Vertrel XF) to get the crap off just to be able to access joints again. (This is on assembly work done out-of-house or on COTS devices, made with who-knows-what.)

It's certainly possible.

But Putin has been operating with good internal logic this entire time (even if the assumptions driving that logic have been flawed at points).

And I'm not really sure what logic would cause him to attack Nordstream. The two best ideas I have are:

1. He wants to remove an option of retreat for Germany. Putin things that with Nordstream inactive, Germany can wait until they get low on gas in the middle of winter before crawling back to Russia and conceding in exchange for gas. But if it's damaged, Germany kind of need to start repairing it now, and Putin can force them to concede sooner. And Putin probably feels short on time.

2. Putin is already planning for a civil war, and doesn't think he will control Nordstream during a civil war. By destroying Nordstream, it will be harder for some civil war faction to turn it back on.

Neither are great theories. At least without some extra evidence to suggest Putin is thinking along one (or both) of these lines.

> So, a 17% increase becomes a at least a 34% increase in required new energy...

With solar in particular, due to high seasonality we effectively have 3 solutions and none of them make much sense:

1. Install huge-ass batteries to hold "summer" energy for "winter". LCOE goes down the drain.

2. Install "winter" season capacity. In the summer you have overproduction, that in the long term noone wants to buy, because everyone is on solar. LCOE goes down the drain.

3. Install gas plant along solar for "winter" backup. Unit cost skyrockets due to low utilization, LCOE goes down the drain. You save some GHG per unit when "summer" generation is covered by PVs.

This is not accounting that with non-dispatchable solar cost of balancing for the grid also goes up. It's not really long term planning per se. Renewables are expensive, period. There is almost zero actual political discussion on cheap energy vs renewable energy. If anything, this discussion is consciously dishonest: marginal cost of energy for producers is most often given as the true cost of renewables.

And then we have efficiency. Wind energy is especially sensitive to location. As the best spots are gobbled up first (duh) the marginal efficiency of wind generation declines, which is to be expected. However, various analysts like Lazard give LCOE numbers based on existing averages, which cannot - by definition - be sustained.
If the postwar trials have any integrity—and I believe they had some if certainly not enough—you could say the same of people organizing rail schedules. And you’d be right if your ire is directed at Eichmann, but probably wouldn’t be able to reasonably generalize it to rail operators. I can’t imagine a similar extrapolation being reasonable to any doctor whose field isn’t directly implicated in the “race science” and various other explicit fascist ideological ideas.
