So in your example, "big ag" is... people who do canning? The industrial bakeries supposedly threatened by home bakers selling at farmers' markets?

I'm willing to believe there are actual examples out there, but this is not it. Starting a bakery is not hard. I've traveled extensively in Wisconsin and there are plenty of small bakeries. And at least here in CA, a common way to get started building a food business is to rent time in a shared industrial kitchen. That suggests there are plenty of ways for people to get started, and that food safety laws are not a big burden.
I suspect something like “everyone cheats online” is kind of what we have here, and they’re a bit worried about upsetting the whole applecart.
I don’t know about those games … but isn’t the incomplete/hidden information a fundamental difference from chess and how easy it is to cheat?
Another example:
A big tech company goes bankrupt, threatening thousands of jobs to disappear.
The gov prints some billions to restore the liquidity of the company, which then recovers.
After saving the company and its employees, those employees get the same salary as before and therefore aren't spending more.
In that case the printing of money did not generate more demand, which could cause the prices to increase, or am i missing something?
MAD hasn’t been breached until a nuclear weapon is deployed in a way that would guarantee a nuclear response under existing treaties.
Imagine calling this "stealing it back". Hilarious
What’s financially independent mean at age 35? Say you saved 200k every year (which isn’t even technically possible given that the typical tax rate for 300k means a smaller net than that.) You have 2 million in the bank. Can you live off 2 million for 30 years (social security age) while supporting a family as the sole earner, for that long? You gotta be really confident in your investments to take that plunge.
Which is odd, considering how many games Hans played at 90-100% match for chess engine moves, which seems to be a lot more than other GMs, where typically their best games are in the 70% range. See Hikaru and other chess YT channels.
But they aren't compelling the SQLite devs to do anything.

If a fork catches on, then it's what people wanted. If it doesn't catch on, then let it fail.
Putin said that dealing with street gangs in his youth taught him that when a fight is inevitable, he should strike first. Now we have a significant nuclear escalation on its way to Ukraine.
There is a parallel in college physics. Typically, most colleges have two tracks: "Calc-based" and "non-calc-based" physics. Everybody finds the non-calc-based course to be an utterly bewildering exercise in memorizing formulas. Even the calc based students are baffled by it. The calc based course is widely regarded as easier and more intuitive -- if you also take calc.

Stats is the same way. I was a math major, and my college had two stats tracks: "Math stats" and "stats for scientists." The first track was 2 semesters, and we had to prove everything. Of course we used calc. The second track was 1 semester, and was an utterly bewildering exercise in memorizing formulas.

I took "math stats," but was then asked to run the discussion section for "stats for scientists." There were things that were utterly intuitive to me, but that I couldn't satisfactorily explain to the students, such as the need for different formulas and methods for discrete and continuous distributions.

Freshman economics. The professor bent over backwards to make sense of the formulas related to things like the supply and demand curves, because he couldn't use derivatives. Also, it was 1982, and yes, the professor showed us the Laffer Curve.
I’m not sure they’re essential, but they may be able to help you improve your swing.
This isn't the same kind of interference. Wi-Fi de-auth attacks are technically still 'interference' but a layer above
The trust barrier for holding onto nuclear weapons is much higher than the trust barrier for artillery. Ukraine has a history of corruption and bribery issues. The current regime seems fine but 20 years from now?
We found difficulty with the purely advisory locking that Linux had. Also the possibility of network filesystems made it a pain.

Do you have any experience with either?
The $1B is pretty much a red herring, it's only in play under a specific circumstances. There's no "pay $1B to get out of this no questions asked" clause in the contract. It doesn't limit damages.
For the last couple decades, at least, you can take all of those classes as 4 year programs at my local, public high school. In fact, you can take most of them at the same time. As it turns out, students have more than 1 class on their schedules every year!

We also have mechanical engineering, culinary, law enforcement & forensic science, marketing & business, computer science, game design, education, ROTC, printshop, photography, we even have a class that teaches students how to do their taxes! (it is literally 2 lessons) and this is in Texas where people assume the worst about our schools.

Many people that comment here about education don't really know what happens in a school outside of their memories of going to school as a teenager. When I became a teacher and looked back at the school I went to, I was surprised at all the opportunities that were available that I either wasn't interested in, or didn't notice existed. Most things that people think "schools should teach" are actually being taught at schools.
The same could be said about Ruby/Python/JS except for them not being esoteric. And they are wildly successful, even for new projects today.
I remember in 2008 he predicted that text editors/IDEs will have to compete against the browser. When Jupyter notebook hit the scene I thought how prescient he was. There's a move toward bringing back the editor/IDE-like environment but I suppose with VS Code being based on electron it's just another form of the browser.
The benefit of calculus isn’t about the ability to write things down on paper in a fancy code and playing a game to solve it. The benefit is that it paints your waking reality in a color you weren’t aware you could observe previously: curves, and expectation, and prediction.

Based on your take here, I’m gonna guess that you’re in but haven’t yet graduated college.

I’m not sure how you’re going to suggest “learning programming” rather than learning calculus, as calculus is a foundational element of all modern languages. For loops are a further generalization of Leibniz notation, in a rough but very real fashion.

You can only understand a car so deeply without brushing up against physics, the study of which is classically explained by (you guessed it). Sure, you can argue that “you don’t need physics to understand a car well enough to fix it.” Okay, congrats on mastering the adult version of putting the right shaped block into the right shaped hole.

Understanding music really doesn’t require a ton of calculus, unless you want to go into building instruments and music software. If you want to do sound design, you’re also fucked, because understanding Fourier transforms is an important aspect of being a good design engineer.

To me, it sounds like you failed calculus twice and now are trying to prevent people from sharing in your grief. That’s less admirable than you think—-it’s not that calculus is fundamentally hard without reward or merit, it’s likely that somebody failed to indicate to you the importance of calculus.
Wow, it takes a grade A piece of shit to speculate about someone’s divorce.
Not all advertising is the same. Yes every product needs to promote itself, but there are countless organic ways to do so, most of them being industry dependent. How many of the most popular tech products today got to where they are because they put up billboards in the middle of cities?
Which gets to my point about the bias of chess.com. Surely they have an interest in making this look like one awful offender, a bad apple essentially, and not that they’re profits come from a broken sport.
This is the same logic as roman decimation, which I think you'll find few people arguing is a great way to run a military today.
You need to do some math, the forces are way higher than what a jet pilot feels.
Because surely you were an expert on covid and its consequences early on during the pandemic, and surely you have proven (and published) that the measures taken (given the knowledge at the time where they were taken) were counter-productive in the long run, right?
Exactly. Advertising is an arms race. Coca Cola doesn't spend billions on ads because nobody had heard of Coke. They do it to suppress the more innovative competition.
No war with Russia is bad for the likes of Halliburton and Raytheon, they are really struggling since they are accustomed to constant profits since 9/11, as matter of pure coincidence the US media conglomerates are also big fans of war and someone with a submarine is blowing up pipelines and ratcheting up tensions.

If you paid any attention in 2001 you've heard this song before.
Elon musk has complained that Twitter is trying to stop disinformation and label propaganda. He thinks that fighting for truth is anti-free speech. So yes, it can get worse
It wasn't the drugs that were the problem, but, instead, timely boneheadedness:

May 2018 The Trump Administration disbands the White House pandemic response team.

July 2019 The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) epidemiologist embedded in China’s disease control agency left the post, and the Trump Administration eliminated the role.

Oct. 2019 “Currently, there are insufficient funding sources designated for the federal government to use in response to a severe influenza pandemic.”

Jan. 22, 2020 “We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. It’s going to be just fine.”

Please don't start. It happened, we learned from it, we're moving on...
Love the comment and I really dislike the "usefulness" attitude. Learning useful everyday things is the task of parents, or a youth group, or a mentor, or what have you.

Here in Germany, regarding school, Wilhelm von Humboldt's Bildungsideal has alwas played an important role in framing the function of schooling, and I always found it astonishing how his attitude has if anything become more relevant, given that he wrote this over 200 years ago.

"There are undeniably certain kinds of knowledge that must be of a general nature and, more importantly, a certain cultivation of the mind and character that nobody can afford to be without. People obviously cannot be good craftworkers, merchants, soldiers or businessmen unless, regardless of their occupation, they are good, upstanding and – according to their condition – well-informed human beings and citizens. If this basis is laid through schooling, vocational skills are easily acquired later on, and a person is always free to move from one occupation to another, as so often happens in life."

Schooling lays the foundation for people to become fully developed adults, citizens and to cultivate the ability to learn. It's why we do sports, read classical literature, take religious classes, even if we don't 'use' them. They're important parts of our culture, and it's hard to imagine how someone could navigate or begin to understand our culture not being equipped with a well rounded basic education.
Distributing more money is almost certainly unproductive.

During Covid large checks were mailed out. Reddit was full of 'casual investors' throwing money at meme stocks that explained it was 'covid money' and thus didn't matter much to them.

Student loan debt forgiveness is the latest madness.

The end result? Those with the least money (the poor, and those on fixed incomes) are totally hosed. If you can't afford rent at $800, you surely can't afford it at $1400. More handouts only make the problem worse.

The Fed's response (raising interest rates) will make cars and houses out of reach for many.

Vote for politicians of any party who pledge fiscal responsibility. As a litmus test, judge their reactions to government handouts.
You need about two weeks for radiation levels to drop. Ideally you are underground or have several walls and air filtering between you and contaminated regions.

Past that, food becomes a meaningful issue since your topsoil is quite irradiated.

You will probably have a shorter lifespan by a decade or so but obviously much longer than perishing immediately.
Good luck with the other radio band stuff. PoE is likely easier to find and more reliable. Most WiFi based security cameras already struggle to function decently on WiFi.
This article seems to want this to look like a unified movement, but it seems more like a bunch of small groups in different areas who aren't working together, and may not even agree with each other if you get them in a room together. The issue-specific people ("no car ads!", "no gambling ads!") may not go to bat for someone else's issue, and may look at the "no ads whatsoever" people as extremists who distract from their specific cause.

I guess my point is this seems like a bunch of weakly-related data points, rather than a strong signal of a movement. Too bad, since I'd love to see drastically fewer ads in public spaces.
It's just like all military things. It's just an insurance. For ex. all Europe counrys have armys. Most countrys never had a war in the last 50 years and military gear was just used to play war. We in Switzerland paid billions for our F18 jets. They never shot a single shot to an enemy, but still, we pay billions again to buy new F35 jets.
You don't lock, you move the file that it next to be processed. File moves are atomic. You move the file out of the list of files that are being picked up for processing.

Lock free.
Say nice things? That reminds me of the lab incident we had last week - a recalcitrant student, no extinguisher on hand, no way of cleaning up after the incident, no clothes for the kid who had to use the safety shower, our safety lady is responsible for provisioning all that and it wasn't there because she's that incompetent. And as the guy who dealt with the incident and wrote the incident report I am supposed to say nice things about the safety lady? Sorry, that's preposterous.
Releasing Exhibit C seems like a huge lapse in judgement from chess.com; they've supposedly redacted it, but there's so much information there that it has to be completely trivial to deanonymize. Like, just how many of the people with a 2700+ rating played in chess.com money tournaments until suddenly creating a new account in July 2020 and then didn't play in such tournaments for a year.

If that still doesn't narrow it down to one person, then the widths of the redaction black bars will finish the job.

Edit: Not sure where the downvotes are coming from, but just to be clear, Exhibit C is some totally unrelated bystander with nothing to do with the Niemann case. These emails, and by proxy the person's identity, are being published for no other reason than for chess.com to fluff up their cheating etection credentials. How is this acceptable?
I agree that government is needed for the biggest "capital" expenditures. Separate point from the article, which is just more cliche "once we somehow stop believing in the capitalism ideology (and believe in my preferred ideology instead) people will stop being bad and there will be sunshine and rainbows"
Anti-jamming is as illegal as jamming, unfortunately.

As feet says, you seem to be missing the second part on a evolved rules based order. Building codes (the IRC, IBC, IFC, etc) are the exact opposite of a “big idea.” They’ve been learned by the work (and loss of) thousands of people over decades. Then they provide a baseline that individual countries and municipalities adapt to fit local society and needs.
op is posting about the people who cut him off. If I use adaptive cruise control at 2 or 3 (stopping distance) car lengths, then I'm just cut off every time, even though there is nowhere to go.

The end to this unsafe and traffic causing behavior is something I look forward to in more self driving cars. (Fewer drivers racing dangerously for "pride" points to end up at the same traffic light in 500')
What's the syntax to pass a hash to a function, and use it there?

func %h;
sub func {
my %h = @_;

Syntax for putting a hash inside an array, or vice-versa?

None that I know of. But you can put a hashref into a list and vice versa:

push @a, \%h; # or {…}, $hr
$h{key} = \@a; # or […], $ar

How do you get the keys of a hash that's inside an array?

keys %{$a[0]}

Your question could also mean

keys %{{@a}}

though less likely.

But my perl fu weakened after years of wandering and I also remember reading that refs became first-class for common operators and functions (including keys), so dereferencing is not mandatory anymore. Not sure if that’s true, could be a dream easily.
While that's obviously true, I'm not sure it's some sort of optimum state. I think if you're in the ocean, it is understandable that you would keep treading water to stop yourself from drowning, but perhaps a better solution is to look for ways to leave the ocean. I'm entirely unconvinced that this isn't a local maximum that we're stuck in.

Even if I leave room that advertising (and capitalism) is the only stable system, that doesn't mean it can't be limited and restricted for better outcomes for people on the whole.
Might appear like that at a glance. I wonder…the additional costs in terms of time, ongoing expense, etc. might make $10 billion to cut it off seem correct in some paths.

Gallium is not used in Vulkan drivers. But Zink (OpenGL on top of Vulkan) does use Gallium, so with NVK, if you want OpenGL you can use Zink which uses Gallium.

Edit: Gallium is not only not deprecated, but it's also used by basically every GL driver withing Mesa these days.
Putin also said that West only respects power and that the US only talks to Russia because Russia is the only country that can destroy it in half an hour. He might be going to demonstrate his power next so that the West "finally understands".
Essentially, he also created NFTs then...
Not a perfect system but the Folkuniversitet in some parts of Sweden provides similar education to what you envision here.

They have both vocational courses (business, economics, IT, healthcare, etc.) as well as courses in humanities, arts (including performing arts, and writing) and so on.

You can take courses whenever you want, or apply for a longer vocational education.
The decision-making involved was quite rational if you assume Putin was operating with incomplete information. Had the war ended in two weeks, as it looked like it was going to right at the start, he would have met his domestic goals.

But then it turned out that Ukraine was more prepared than Russian intelligence thought, and Europe started flooding it with weapons. Given that Russia isn't taking the war half as seriously[1] as Ukraine is, none of what's happening is irrational or surprising.

[1] By design. Putin didn't want an existential conflict that required actual sacrifice on the part of his constituents, he just wanted an easy victory to cement his popularity. He's now stuck in a situation where he has few good options.

How is this fair to Youtube? Youtube literally have no idea who you are (supposed to, anyways). What are they supposed to show to a random Youtube consumer? Whatever the average consumer finds interesting. Unfortunately for humanity, its TikTok videos.
I took Calculus in college and stopped there. And while some of it was cool, it mostly felt pointless.

Decades later, I'm playing around with some concept at work. I was asked to estimate something, but it was annoying because it depended on multiple things. If one was low and one was high, then the result was low. It was only when neither were low that the result was higher. I could even program a function for it.

In a sudden burst of what felt like inspiration, I graphed it out, thinking I could eyeball something, and it was a nice even curve that went up and then back down.

I was honestly stuck there for a while. I was eyeballing it and wondering how I could actually figure out where it was at its highest, like exactly.

"Huh," said my atrophied brain from college. "You know what's funny, is that the highest point of the curve is also when the line is flat."

I stared stupidly at it for a while longer until it finally, finally hit me that I could take the derivative.

I still remembered the derivative rule, that part was pretty easy. But coming to the point where I realized I could use it... that took a while.

I guess the point is that you get out what you put into math class. You can be drilled on problems but you won't necessarily recognize the situations where you can apply it. (They should probably try and teach that more.)

Once that switch clicked on in my brain, I learned to recognize more things like that. Using pre-existing "set" intersection/union functions rather than just slinging arrays. Recognizing when I had a collection of similar linear equations and realizing I could put them in a matrix. And yeah, the occasional derivative. It's "technically correct" that we might not ever NEED these tools in real life, but we're faced with situations where they might be helpful more than we actually realize.
I lived in a place where they were banned and roadside signage highly regulated and it was awesome, some much less visual clutter and noise. Every time I would travel I’d be shocked at how much advertising there was.

The whole point of billboards is that they are not private. If people want to put up billboards in their houses, godspeed.
My take on the current situation as someone who's watched the conflict since 2014 (both professionally and casually):

Russia's nuclear weapons arsenal is serving its intended purpose right now: Scaring Westerners. If you listen to Putin's speeches, he's been remarkably consistent. He cares about Russia's place in the world, addressing how it's not treated as an equal partner (by his and other Russians' measure), the desire for a multipolar world, and general nationalistic sentiments.

Nuclear threats raise the ambient level of seriousness with which the general Western public, and by extension its governments, must take Russia. Getting that benefit only costs vocalizing the occasional reminder. So, from a game theoretic perspective, it makes sense to do so. Those purposes aren't served by actually using nuclear weapons.
Does this mean Nvidia on Desktop Linux won't be a huge pain anymore? I'm on AMD because ultimately the Linux support just works reliably whatever I install with the open source drivers (different from great, but hey, I can run Stable Diffusion in podman so not terribly either).

But the ML space is going to Nvidia, so I suspect my next card will be an NV - but not at the cost of my "work" space becoming unreliable.
While entire countries will keep the imperial system versus the metric system, I'll never believe in global standardisation. Even if it's strictly better, there will always be a cost to changing, and therefore not everyone will agree.
It's irony and self-derision. Obviously (to me at least) using/making these kind of images are something that OP is fighting against.
That sounds like it should be in Rick and Morty.
