Yes.

> Also, I've heard you could fire a bullet on the Moon and it would be able to go into as low an orbit as a few 100 meters without ever hitting the ground. What's the minimal velocity for that to be plausible?

Apparently: 1679 m/s per https://www.quora.com/How-fast-must-an-object-be-moving-to-o... . The answer isn't very sensitive to height because the radius in the equation is from the center of the moon, so the answer will only change a tiny amount.

Note that low orbits on the Moon aren't stable. The Moon's gravity is lumpy due to its composition, so things that are low quickly become unstable and crash.
It's designed to not pop, but implicit in the theory is that maintenance is shoddy and enough water has got in somehow to let hydrates form. Confidence in absence of pop may be misplaced.
I think by "this number" they mean "a better metric", maybe?
culture is perpetually stuck in the 16-25 range

i think this is the key. not just internet culture, but culture in general.
older generations had to start working in that age range and were generally expected to stop behaving like children. but over the years, the need to work as a teen reduced and childhood got more protected and prolonged. the age range at which we are expected to stop acting like children gradually rose.

i am not saying that we take longer to mature. but that maturity looks different, and allows for more seemingly child-like behavior.

then there is a concept that i believe that the personality that we develop in our late teens and young adult years is the personality we generally keep for the rest of our lives.

so if our young adult years are playful, then we will continue to remain playful.

it's not internet culture that's the cause here, but simply that the internet generation coincides with the time that our society gained the ability to give our children more freedom from economic pressures.

add to that as we get older we gain more autonomy and the financial ability to spend on things of interest, and suddenly it makes sense why we have people in their 30s and 40s or even 50s enjoying computer games, cosplay, being a furry, or build models from lego bricks. it's all about the ability to enjoy what we did enjoy in our childhood and youth.

and those adults that are playing now will continue to play and so the age at which we see this playfulness is going to go up
(Since I see that this is this quite alive: Update: real time: I have just been told in a shoestore, "No, forget about the good quality you could find years ago: it is either "meh" shoes or shoeless". I mean, I have good hope that if one made of finding good products a job in itself, with extensive effort, some reservoir may eventually be found, but really this whole situation is /very/ suboptimal.)
Wouldn't that kind of overcommit be disastrous though?

If a device was granted a 100W budget, but only needs 2W now, maybe it suddenly needs to burst up to the full 100W? If the hub reclaimed those other 98W, now it can't deliver what it promised, so something fails to work, or gets powered off.
Most compilers, like gcc or clang, have a compile option to trap on integer overflow, instead of leaving the behavior to be undefined for such cases.

For example with gcc one should always use these compile options, unless there exists an extremely serious reason to do otherwise:

-fsanitize=address,undefined -fsanitize-undefined-trap-on-error

These options provide correct behavior not only on overflows, but also on out-of-bounds accesses and other C undefined operations.
Disaster averted.

He is, as I read it, basically saying the methane may not be being properly isolated from the atmosphere so air may be leaking in.

That said, you'd need a mega-massive-big input of oxygen contamination (wiki: "... 5–15% concentration [of air, not neat oxygen, IIUC] in a flammable or explosive mixture", and it would have to happen before gas pressurisation (or the methan would leak out, not air in). So I dunno.
I mostly agree with you, but observe that public drug abuse is already de facto decriminalized in our major cities. Clearly decriminalization is no magic bullet either.

I don’t propose any kind of one size fits all solution because I don’t think any such thing exists. I do think that if there is a policy solution, it will necessarily involve demand reduction[1], social services, and yes in some cases putting addicts into some kind of custodial managed living environment. All of that being tailored to the needs and resources of each particular locale. Practically speaking those treatment centers be a jail or an involuntary hospital, but ideally it would look a lot more like a nice rehab facility with incentives for fostering recovery.

Edit: [1] I intentionally left out supply reduction, because I think we have sufficient evidence that it is impracticable.

NSA already does this. "Stylometry" I believe is the term. Perhaps they used heuristics and algorithms so far? I would NLP was good enough for this years ago.
Probably, but there conceivably might be some 'ends justify the means' logic that could motivate it. There have been some eco-terrorist attacks against nuclear power plants for instance, which on the face of it seems contradictory but I presume is justified using some sort of "raise awareness" logic. But without any eco-terrorist group taking credit for this, such a motivation seems particularly unlikely.

> So here’s my wish: a signed integer where INT_MIN == -INT_MAX

Just set INT_MIN to -127 and never use -128.

> Second, you’re getting symmetry back. All the operations mentioned above are now symmetric and can’t overflow. This makes them a lot easier to reason about.

But you seem to want the actual bits to be symmetric with the sign bit just being a literal + or -. This makes it easier for humans to reason with, but it does NOT make it easier for a CPU's adder to add -15 and +63, which in the current standard signed int implementation does not even require the CPU adder to know that it's a signed int.

Unsigned and signed int adding work exactly the same bit-wise, and can use the same hardwired circuits to process at blazing speed. That's the beauty of the current standard implementation.
When I was in school (beige Macintosh era) our teachers told us the keyboard shortcuts as "open apple-S" or "open apple-Q". At the time the keyboards did indeed have both the looped circle and the Apple logo[0], but both were open apples. I had an Apple IIe at home but hadn't figured out keyboard shortcuts yet.

No, it wasn't. I'm sometimes not sure if philosophers understand Goedel's incompleteness theorem. What do you base your claim on?

GIT is more a statement about the limitations of the proof-driven approach to mathematics than it is about any formalisation of mathematics like Principia's. It shows that whatever assumptions proofs are based on cannot be shown consistent except by assuming something even stronger. Principia is affected to exactly the same degree as all proof-driven mathematics, and no more.

I'm not sure whether there has ever been a satisfactory answer to the 2nd GIT among the mathematical establishment. I guess mathematicians just assume that everything is consistent, and go about proving theorems as normal. It seems that almost no mathematician understands - let alone cares about - these foundational concerns.

Principia is the predecessor to modern software like Lean, Coq and Agda. Nothing got destroyed.
Maybe people do things like that because:

- their application parses and generates JSON already, so it's low-effort.

- the JSON can have various shapes: database records generally don't do that.

- even if it has the same shape, it can change over time; they don't want to deal with the insane hassle of upgrade-time DB schema changes in existing installations

The alternative to JSON-in-DB is to have a persistent object store. That has downsides too.
Eco terrorism is a made up concept. It doesn't exist outside of James Bond. Besides, this leak has horrible environmental consequences. If it was a deliberate attack, extremely successful, wouldn't some group have taken responsibility by now?
It has some merit. When Call of Duty 4 came out on XBox 360, I was completely addicted to it. At some point I noticed I had been playing the game for 2 months. I spent 2 full months out of a single year playing a game.

It was fun! Yeah, it was a lot of fun. But there are real things I could have accomplished by balancing that time with other things. I have good memories of COD4, but I still can't play piano.

> Yes; it's been shown that `INTO` is slower than `JO raiseOverflowError` because, by the nature of `INTO` being an interrupt, it doesn't get the advantage of branch prediction, but `JO` would.

A CPU could predict INTO — simply predicting it as not taken would be a good guess. This would require designing, implementing, verifying, and maintaining, and it might add some area to important parts of the CPU. The vendors haven’t seen it as a priority.

(AIUI at least older CPUs couldn’t predict branches in microcode, and INTO is presumably fully microcoded, so it doesn’t get predicted.)
I think the reason why Tiktok is so high on the list is they do an ABSURD amount of DNS requests. I think each video chunk is on a different subdomain...

It's also interesting because their push notifications or background service or whatever does a lot of requests as well.

I was super surprised because I monitor using NextDNS and found this out when one of my top domains was tiktok, and I barely used it!

If that's where the economy should be (I don't know), then moving towards it is stabilizing, no?
AI is getting quite good at a lot of things humans consider fairly difficult (like this example) but has made less progress at things humans consider fairly easy (e.g. maintaining consistency across paragraphs of text for GPT3, navigating 3D space, learning from small numbers of examples). That suggests that there is still a gap between what current AI approaches are doing and what the human brain is doing that doesn't just come down to throwing ever more data at the problem.

Is there any evidence that increasing the money supply causes inflation?

Yes, basic logic. Central banks purchasing assets like index funds, bonds, etc. will naturally cause prices to rise.

I’m not entirely sure how you can steel man an argument that printing trillions of dollars will not lead to higher inflation but I’m happy to hear it.
RDR2 has an online component just like GTA online. In this online mode you play your character as long as you like, building up assets and stats as you complete missions/raids/races etc. This game mode is open ended, so if you spend enough time you can build up an enormous amount of in game assets and currency.

Rockstar locks multiplayer to specific platforms, so if you buy a game on xbox and level up your character there, you can never use that same character on any other platform. In this way you are correct, if he had played on PC all this time then his game save would be in the PC platform cloud not the Stadia cloud.

The guy is a youtube/twitch streamer, so to him loosing this character probably feels like loosing his job.

I'm pretty sure Europe is cut off from Russian energy for years at this point because so much infrastructure has been destroyed (including Nord Stream 1), and if the conflict lasts into the winter, Russian's production capability will be set back by decades as they don't have the means to store the volumes they need to produce in order to keep their equipment from seizing in the cold.

> Windows key is rarely (never?) used as a modifier at the application level. You'd never see it as a keyboard shortcut in menus likes you do with command.

Yeah that's because the Windows key was only introduced with Windows 95, which means a) ctrl- and alt- shortcuts were already convention; and b) most keyboards didn't even have a Windows key! If you were writing an application at the time, it would have been a gamble whether end users could even access your shortcuts. So of course devs stayed with ctrl and alt.
Inflation was high before the exchange rate started to dip.

I’ve only researched the U.S., but there is a lot of evidence that free money greatly increased demand and lead to inflation. Given that a lot of the world invests money in the U.S., the Fed’s loose money policy likely has knock on effects throughout the world. And then you add on the loose monetary policy of the other central banks…

Games aren't a passive hobby, there's an active component of feedback. This a higher dopamine response compared to "passive" activities like watching sports or reading; arguably that's the only real difference.
