Not sure where you're from, but in my Australian suburban jungle, cunt is a pretty common term.

You don't say it if you're over at mums for lunch on a Sunday, but hanging out with the boys? For sure.

"What's with this cunt?" etc is common venacular.
Preparing every meal for your kids, getting them to and from daycare, negotiating over every single thing you ask them to do, doing dishes, doing laundry, fixing drywall, etc. it's a lot of work. You can't just roll out of bed, get to work, work all day, then come home and work or unwind or whatever like you used to; you're "on" all the time, for years, and you squeeze some work in when you can so that you don't have to eat cat food when you're older.
It's because we've nationalized gambling[1], and so all gambling/contests need to be approved by the government.

I still just don't see what Magic leap is going to do in that space. If you just need to overlay real world visuals with metadata, you can do it with a consumer grade smart phone for the past 5 years. If you want immersive, then you want VR. The niches that require goggles are tiny.

Not 100% sure if I qualify or not. I've wrote a little code other people have liked. Occasional websites and that sort of thing. I've wrote code that I cared about for work and was useful for other people. The code I'm currently writing matters very much to me but I haven't sent it to anyone in the form of a game yet. I'll leave it to you to decide if that fits what you're looking for.

I was quite intimidated when I first started learning programming concepts. It seemed much harder than other things I was doing with computers. I initially started goofing around with windows bat files because they were somewhat less intimidating. Then I switched to basic bash when I switched from windows to linux. You actually get fairly advanced concepts in bash, they're just a horror to use. Then eventually web programming / python.

The moment when it all really clicked for me was when I decided I was going to learn web dev by brute force. Rather than getting into libraries and stuff I just wanted the simplest thing that would actually work against a web browser. I wrote the first thing in cgi-bin scripts and bash to render html and a form. Then once I understood the basic mechanic I switched over to doing it in Django and python and learned a more programming basics in that process.

I've repeated that broad scope process a lot though. Build the crappy version first, then once you see how it works go back and start trying to figure it out the right way. I find for me, where I can - it's a lot easier when I can get it to work myself first and the work backwards from that.
Frankly i am quite hopeful for 10 years. Still not sure if/when i want them driving, but these versions of SD make me feel like they're entirely dumb yet feature rich (almost).

The thought of the computer being very capable but still no more smart than my terminal is.. interesting.

Thanks, this doesn't sound quagmirish at all. YouTube is taking a lot of heat for kids viewing videos on its platform. It's unsurprising that they often exceed the boundary. You know the boundary exists and you know that censoring the audio then does the trick. So just do it.
EthosLab is one of my favorite Minecraft players for this reason. Pretty much all of his content is good clean fun. When he's editing, like for PvP arenas, he's pretty good at muting teammates if they are more liberal with their speech, so his own videos don't have anything offensive.

And I can sleep as long as I want without being awoken by my neighbors throwing stuff at the walls or dropping it on the floor, or slamming doors, or having an animated conversation in front of my door, or having an argument or a party in the courtyard or any other nuisance that people create for each other when living in multi-family buildings. No subway can replace this.

My understanding is that back in the early 2000s the Citrix ICA and Microsoft RDP protocols were nearly identical. Common code and all that.

One of the reasons companies licensed Citrix is because Citrix kept investing in ICA and it was about 2-3 times as bandwidth efficient. In the era of 64 Kbps ISDN WAN links this was critical.

Microsoft did something around 2008 and now RDP seems better overall. It can handle 4K at 30 fps without difficulty.

Meanwhile Citrix did weird random things to ICA that made it markedly worse.

It says a lot that all of the Citrix engineers I’ve worked with (including myself) prefer to RDP into a Citrix server instead of using its native ICA protocol!

Other deliberate breakage was Citrix deprecating SSL support directly on the session hosts. They did this to force customers to buy their overpriced Netscaler / ADC appliances. These slow down connections and can’t handle many 4K streams.

Generally they seem to have become an acquisition-driven company instead of an engineering-led one.

Storage needn't emit any CO2 at all. In a world that has transitioned entirely to non-fossil energy sources, where are you thinking this CO2 is coming from? Cement production? Batteries aren't made of cement.

Storage emits CO2... Really, you think so?

Before you have built a thing, you have to build it. After you build it, you have it. Building will be a big job, but nowhere near as big as building nukes instead would have been.

The good news is that renewables start displacing CO2 emission almost immediately after ground is broken.

It would be stupid to build storage without renewable capacity to charge it from. You spend on that first.

Neovim user here. I also use VS Code and especially the Jetbrain products for IDEs. Yet, Neovim is for me just an editor.

- I like I can use the same editor on any platform. I'm a wearable computing nerd having several HMDs and small devices (devterm, raspberry pie, etc.).

- If it's my own platform, it's easy to compile it. It runs in a console and most of my plugins work on embedded, desktop and server systems. (could even compile it and use it on my hacked google glass .. with a twiddler one handed keyboard :D ).

- I like the use of keyboard-only and mode switching. It's more an hobby than anything else. I also use qtbrowser and Nyxt.

Also growing up with a very different Microsoft ("Linux is evil communism"), I still feel uncomfortable using VSCode.

The extra capacity is taken into account with "levelized cost". Levelized cost of wind and solar are just a fraction of the levelized cost of energy from new nuclear power plants.

We can estimate the cost of storage to deal with intermittency and seasonality, and renewables will likely come in cheaper than nuclear by the time any nuclear plant whose construction was started today would come on line.

https://model.energy/

As modeling gets better, renewables look better, as there are more and more ways found to work around the seasonality and intermittency problems.

I find it difficult to think of a context in which Gates would say that 640kB was enough, given that the limitation came from the IBM PC. MS/DOS could quite happily address 768kB on an RM Nimbus, for instance. The more fundamental 1MB limit came from Intel. Gates didn't have to justify either.

That touches on what I thought was a glaring omission in all the computer courses I took in the 1980s: not a single one of them was taught on IBM big iron, let alone AS/400 as it was known then. Even my encounters with COBOL and FORTRAN were on a Prime 650. It seems almost like there was a conscious effort to not teach IBM mainframes.
I think the difference is VC-backed startups need to achieve a larger scale, for which more than one person is needed.
> This is unilaterally severable by either of us for no compensation, after which we’d both be free to go our own way and do whatever we want, related or not to this idea.

Would that make it too easy to force out a co-founder, with nothing? Just make it so unpleasant, in a game of chicken, that they leave?

Or to abandon a co-founder at the initial company, while taking know-how, customer/partner relationships, etc., and starting a new company doing the same thing that the initial company would do, but with a clean slate on sharing equity (co-founders and past investors)?

I'd guess an evil investor might like this agreement, so long as they'll be benefiting from the evil (e.g., cutting out a co-founder's share of equity). But what about investors who don't want the risk of losing to evil (e.g., know-how and relationships built with their money, leaving to found competitor in which they have no equity)?

"Dinosaurs mating" was the old phrase.
Today we use about 600 exajoules of primary energy per year. The sun hits us with about 3.8 million exajoules per year. 1.03^1000 is a factor of 7e12. So under that assumption, the earth would be making 1 billion times more power than we receive from the sun.

I can pretty much guarantee that we won't be scaling at 3%/yr for the next 1000 years. And if we do, that's an argument for lots more nuclear fission, and a lot of fusion too. Because the solar-derived flows (wind, solar, hydro, biofuel, fossil fuel) won't be able to keep up even if we covered 100% of the earth with solar panels!
If solar and wind are not mature, that just means there's even more room for them to improve. And they're already beating the pants off nuclear globally for new generating capacity.

If you extend the demonstrated empirical experience curve for solar assuming PV dominates world energy production, cost might decline to just $0.01/kWh.

Far as I'm concerned, any commercial product that contains swearing has nearly always been Rated M For Mature, which is a more verbose way to say 18+ only. Rated T for Teenagers and Rated E for Everyone straight up do not have swearing, period.

Amateur products have been the exception to this norm, because let's face it: The commons don't give a shit.

But platforms/publishers themselves are not the commons, they are businesses and they have legal liabilities: They do give a shit.

So while Youtube is asinine, flagging a video that contains swearing as Rated M (aka 18+) is reasonable. The only thing unreasonable is inconsistent enforcement. If something contains swearing, it's going in the 18+ Only bin.
> 2) a lot more tired than I used to be, even after a rare full night sleep

I suspect any drop in cognitive ability is largely a symptom of this, not a permanent rewiring.

Many non-parents experience memory, concentration, computation, and anxiety problems, when operating under the pressure of low (or low quality) sleep.
> To be restricted to 18+? If your kid goes to public school they learn these words in 1st grade.

That's irrelevant, that's about parents controlling what they kids can or cannot watch on family devices. I would not want my kids to watch any content with swearing. Inserting that footage was probably unnecessary for the purpose of that documentary at first place.

The fact that some youtuber gets less money from ads because one of his video was flagged as inappropriate is a non story.

I personally despise youtubers who fill their otherwise potentially interesting videos with cheap memes.
the reason gmail gets so much spam relative to our individual domains is apparent if the mailer the spammer uses forgets to BCC everyone and you get a list of usernames in the CC: field.

They just iterate over every dictionary word and bolt on numbers and extra letters, or you'll see stuff like genewitci@gmail.com henewitch@gmail.com, etc. I haven't paid attention to gmail in a couple of years since i now use my own domain and fastmail (for $5 a year, even), so i have no idea if the mailing lists are more refined now or not.

Nearly everyone on earth knows about the dot separators and the +whatever that gmail allows, and will just trim that before they sell your email address, nullifying the usefulness. having someuniqueID@example.com is much nicer. you cut down on spam a lot, however it does open you up to a lot of spam to admin@ and webmaster@.

Most storage will not be batteries, unless a new battery chemistry proves radically cheaper (which might happen).

Right now the overwhelming majority of storage is pumped hydro, almost as dispatchable as batteries. There are plenty of alternatives.

Kids will literally try anything as part of exploring the world and seeing what haapens - that's how they learn.

The first time they throw a tantrum to get something just walk away and don't buckle .. especially if it's in a very public place.

Avoid providing feedback that throwing a fit in public will bend you to their will and it won't happen much more.

I have absolutely no confidence in this. "family-friendly" is extremely context and culture specific. You'll get lots of people actively trying to push the boundary for fun.

On the weird extreme of that are the Spiderman/Elsa videos.

On the cultural extreme is Mr Rogers washing feet together with a black friend.

Are we going to update the filters with time as well? Or would we get stuck with no toilets or flushing forever?

There's a lot of old movies in my country where the nudity happened and it was extremely matter-of-fact - for example people go for a swim in the ocean so they're naked while they change. Those movies are way more family-friendly than what this filter would accept.

Postgres used QUEL instead of SQL for the first decade of its life. There were several competing languages in the relational database space at one time, but SQL eventually won, no doubt thanks to Oracle and IBM's utter dominance in the space a few decades ago.

Declarative doesn't mean staying power. Reaching ubiquity through luck and random chance seems to be what achieves staying power. Javascript likely fits this category too. Browser developers 30 years from now will no doubt still be using Javascript.
The subtle distinction is that when the standard specifies that behavior is undefined, it does not mean that an implementation is forbidden from providing well specified and documented semantics, and hence the statement I replied to "Undefined behavior is always undefined behavior" is false and furthermore a common misconception.

The point of adding more undefined behavior for this case, or any case in general, is to provide optimization opportunities that do not require introducing changes to the syntax (such as additional type checking or analysis). That way a C++ compiler is welcome to provide debugging support and various checks when a program is compiled in debug mode, and then eliminate those checks and make very strong assumptions about the program's runtime behavior when a program is compiled with optimizations enabled.

This is in contraposition to OPs claim that "There is no "debug mode" for undefined behavior.". There absolutely is a debug mode and it absolutely can catch undefined behavior, and UBSan is an excellent tool for doing precisely what OP claimed is not permissible in C++.
Marking the video as not-for-kids (under 13) was expected. Age restricting the video to 18+, which heavily suppresses the video and requires watchers in many countries to give ID photo/credit card verification, was not expected. I've never seen that before just for swearing.

> You know the boundary exists

From the article, the video doesn't appear to break any of the publicly given rules. Likely it breaks some internal rule they use for judgement (X swears in Y seconds). The creator claims they'd be fine adjusting accordingly if Youtube gave some stance to follow - problem is pouring a ton of work into a huge video and only then having it unexpectedly restricted due to uncommunicated rules.

If all Ross did was run some sort of anonymous exchange then I could see the point here. The problem is that's not all he did. He became complicit in actively facilitating the criminal activity and even engaged in it himself. This wasn't some future vision of a no knowledge brokerage system. Let's not equate what Ross was doing with Apple saying they can't break their own encryption.

There's plenty of people in jail for doing nothing but crossing the path of the wrong government bureaucrat. Take for example the ATFs regulations on NFA items and what they classify as under it as a fully automatic weapon. According to them having a piece of metal with the printed directions to make an auto sear is an automatic weapon and you've committed a felony. Yes, this is the exact equivalent of MIT printing the PGP code and it still being classified as a weapon. People are going to jail for only sharing knowledge.

That's not why Ross is in jail.
