So, he "unofficially" campaigned and did not get much interest
As a saddening commentary, Knuth stopped sending those checks in 2008 because of problems with check fraud. Since this refers to Knuth, I carefully parsed that not as "because of check fraud," but, "because of problems with check fraud." There is an interesting difference between those two.

From your wiki link:

Initially, Knuth sent real, negotiable checks to recipients. He stopped doing
so in October 2008 because of problems with check fraud. As a replacement, he
started his own "Bank of San Serriffe", in the fictional nation of
San Serriffe, which keeps an account for everyone who found an error since
2006.[2] Knuth now sends out "hexadecimal certificates" instead of negotiable
checks.
Apparently "YouTube" is overlooked.

There's a number of angles to this.

Want a fancy job? This is one of the hoops to jump through. Same as leetcode further down the line, you won't do it at work but you will do it to get work. But that's also a pretty tragic take on it.

Practice for other things, sure, that is also a way to see it. You won't bench press the other team but you will make yourself stronger. But for what? A sport you'll never play? What are you preparing for?

Here's another one. Math, especially pure math, is a thing that is totally separate from observation. It just sort of exists without being anywhere, and yet there's all this depth to it. You can get a puzzle that cannot be solved by any anything other than thoughts, and you can keep building on these puzzles that don't exist. Go nowhere and explore.

Lastly I note that it's mostly math class that gets asked this "what's the point" question. But you may as well as this about everything else you do in school, and you will mostly find that you'll have spent years to learn French for 4 weeks of actual use in France, dissected frogs for no reason, and learned how to play the recorder. All things that I'm sure you can find positives for despite the superficial benefits being quite small.
Changing the law can't change the principle of qualified immunity, unless you ammend the constitution. And, as others have pointed out, qualified immunity has been used to save a police office that loosed violent dogs on a suspect sitting on the ground with their hands up, because while there was established precedent that loosing violent dogs on suspects laying on the ground is illegal, this had not yet been tested in court for suspects sitting on the ground with their hands up, so how could the officer had known that the court would look down on such a thing?

If this decision doesn't show there is something deeply, fundamentally, disgustingly wrong with your legal system, I don't think anything else can show that.
No chance. If the police aren't allowed to lie to the jury their conviction numbers would suffer, which makes the police department look bad.

> any startup that has an idea for an innovation in the phone cable space

That's a lot of money for a startup to burn on something inconsequential instead of using off-the-shelf stuff for the least important area where you can innovate.

Also, I haven't put a charging cable into my phone since... 2012 or something like that when the Nexus 4 came out. Ever since I tried wireless charging, going back to regularly using a charging cable feels like going back to the stone age.
Roughly: NPM, Github, and others funded open bug bounties for all popular NPM packages. These bug bounties led to a rash of security "vulnerabilities" being reported against open source project, to satisfy the terms of the bounty conditions. Public bug bounty "intermediary" companies are a major culprit here—they have an incentive to push maintainers to accept even trivial "vulnerabilities", since their success is tied to "number of vulnerabilities reported" and "amount of bounties paid out". This leads to classes of vulnerabilities like reDOS or prototype pollution that would never have been noticed or worth any money otherwise.
The skill gap issue is huge in games. When a game is popular you have plenty of people worse than you at the game to stomp. When it becomes niche its just you against the pros who play nothing but this one game for thousands of hours, and it becomes a lot more frustrating to get into a game.
So the word “equitable” is is unacceptable? What would be acceptable here? Genuine question.
If you can't find a bug that exists in your copy of TAOCP, maybe you didn't learn what it was teaching you :-)

The common mirrors have the metal on the back side, so their reflectivity is diminished by the absorption in the glass.

The better mirrors, which are used e.g. in telescopes and some other optical instruments, have the metal on the front side, but that limits the metal choice to aluminum, because silver is tarnished quickly by the sulfur compounds present in the air.

I have had to answer this question to my kids (one of whom abhors math). The explanation I gave is this:

For many subjects, most kids will end up never using them. But, we have no way to predict which subjects will be useful for which kids. Without the ability to do that, our priority is maximize each child's opportunity. We never want a kid to be in the situation where they would have been interested in a subject and a career path but never ended up discovering that and using it because we didn't expose it to them.

So we teach some of every subject to every kid. That way no matter which path they end up following, they are as prepared for it as we can make them.

(Also, yes, I agree that math is good general training for cognitive rigor. Also, numeric literacy is vital for all adults since we live in an ecomonic world and participate in a democracy where statistics are necessary to understand policies.)
> and nobody will ever become a cop.

Most (almost all?) police officers in the US have a union negotiated contract where the employing agency indemnifies them. Not only do you not need QI to avoid the liability you're concerned about, but the infrastructure is already in place.

> siphoning nearly a trillion dollars out of the productive economy

Not exactly correct. While the global crypto market cap is currently around a trillion dollars (and was higher in the recent past), this is vastly different than it being the case that a trillion dollars was invested in crypto (i.e., "siphoned out" of the rest of the economy).

In fact, according to one estimate, in 2021 global crypto investment was $30.2 billion [1]. (I don't quickly see estimates for 2022.) For comparison, US gross private domestic investment across all industries was $4.1 trillion in 2021 [2] and globally it was several times that. While $30 billion is nothing to sneeze at when considered on its own, crypto investment is a rounding error when compared with global investment.

The parser for a C grammar (e.g. Yacc job) also doesn't know anything. Is the output used for pretty-printing (the code is just data), completion, or generating code?

The reader doesn't know about opperands or operators, but it certainly knows a symbol from an integer or string.

We've cleverly arranged things so that it doesn't have to know anything else in order to produce output that, in some cases, can be evaluated directly.

> That's semantics, not syntax

Syntax versus semantics is sometimes about where you put the goalposts.

What if I make it a macro that looks at the argument count and chooses a different function?

(defmacro minus (&rest args)
(if (eql 1 (length args))
`(unary-minus ,(car args)) ;; takes exactly one arg
`(nary-minus ,@args))) ;; blows up if not given at least two args

Is that still "semantics, not syntax"? Why does it become semantics if one function does it itself by switching on the argument count internally?

Everything is syntax! Adding two floating-point value is syntax: the representation has to be parsed into sign bit, exponent and mantissa, and so on before anything happens.

Sure, those fields are accessed conveniently by position, but so are the elements of the list (sign exponent mantissa), and our goalposts say that that is syntax.

The parsing never stops. The CPU fetches instructions, decodes (== parsing!) and executes.

When the Lisp run-time looks at a value to extract the tag bits, and then further delves into the object accordingly, it is parsing syntax.
You have more experience in this area, but REGEXP_CONTAINS() seems faster than LIKE for bigger datasets IMO.

Although in my work I tend to use REGEXP_CONTAINS() as an efficient multifilter for different inputs, which speeds things up too.

Note: the purpose of this offer (to complete his original offer) is to stop the lawsuit, as it appears to be contingent on [edit] the court delaying or terminating proceedings [/edit]. (https://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/elon-musk-twi...)

But a court will not terminate or delay legal proceedings due to one party unilaterally offering to settle on the eve of trial, especially not if the offer is contingent on such court action. For the court to even delay proceedings this close to trial, both parties must approach the court requesting such a delay. And while this happens the overwhelming majority of the time when a settlement is being worked out, Musk is not a trustworthy counterparty and his prior behavior in this specific case works against him here. Twitter might be willing to delay the start of trial by a few days, but that's the best Musk will get unless he actually goes through with the acqusition.

There's no realistic possibility of the court terminating the proceedings before a deal closes unless Twitter withdraws its lawsuit. And they're not going to do that until the acquisition goes through, because if Musk pulls the rug out from under them again, they'd have to file a new lawsuit. That new lawsuit would be starting back at square one, and likely wouldn't be completed in time before the original offer expired.

Also, the type of firearms owned are different. In Canada, firearms are mostly for hunting whereas in the United States, they are mostly for protection.

In Canada, less than 12% of firearm-owning households have hand guns whereas it is at 72% in the U.S. In Canada, 95% of firearm-owning households own long guns. Long guns are more inconvenient for committing crimes or murders than handguns.

The active threat of someone intentionally driving through a security checkpoint at a military base is an entirely different context. At the point they're crossing the threshold they've already disregarded very obvious markings, signs, obstacles, and undobtedly commands from the sentries on post. There are a number of scenarios for which there are pre planned responses- deviating from those leaves you facing the UCMJ and you're expected to have a very solid justification for using deadly force.

Shooting at a vehicle not actively causing harm due to a perceived threat because it looks like the vehicle of someone you reasonably expect to be a threat is... well, that's a stretch.

Anecdotally I can say from personal experience there is a lot more restraint being used when guarding people/places relating to national security in place where you can reasonably expect to encounter threats and terrorism than the amount of restraint police here use at civilians domestically.

Oh? When did I become able to carry my Apple software, purchases, addresses, backups, pictures, etc. over to Android? When did I become able to buy a phone that functions in the Apple ecosystem that isn't made by Apple?

Oh, right, I can't.

A Pixel and a Galaxy are direct competitors. An iPhone and a Galaxy are not direct competitors because of lock-in effects.

Now, if you are saying that the EU should mandate that I be able to switch my purchases between those ecosystems, that would change. However, even as much of a fan as I am about anti-trust, I believe that would be a bridge too far.

Furthermore, from what we have seen in the past 36 months with respect to supplier consolidation, I would argue that ANY market with less than 5 real competitors should get broken up recursively until that gets fixed. That should apply to phones, food, toilet paper, disinfectants, etc.--everything.

Part of what is allowing all the economic price hikes to stick is that even in markets where there is "competition", there is some single upstream supplier that can't (mostly) or won't (rarely) increase production. This prevents any of the "competitors" from being able to gain significant market share since they can't increase their production since everybody is blocked.

A lot of businesses figured this out through Covid. So, they raised prices. What are you gonna do? Go to a competitor? He can't absorb your order and you'll be at the back of his queue. Good luck.
GTA Online had a number of methods to quickly rack up unlimited money when it came out. Not really external hacks, just regular old in game glitches were around. I used it to get a bunch of money in game, and rather than breaking anything, it just made it a lot more fun being able to drive whatever car or get whatever I wanted. Calling up a tank is a blast in a game like gta online! I pretty much stopped playing the game when they patched everything and reset the in game economy and made my character broke and boring.

Lightning was a design put forth by a company that wasn't Apple during the USB IF's design stage of USB-C. It was rejected because the pins were on the outside, not the inside, and would allow easy damage of both the cable and the connector. It was rejected purely on completely sane technical and mechanical reasons.

Apple shipped it anyways, and all Lightning cables have failed or will fail for exactly the reasons it was rejected. Apple chose the cable because of how easily it fails.

Lightning was never good, and Apple has a long history of fucking customers, period.
