Not the guy you're replying to although I subcommented when I ought to have replied to you.

The notation often suggests a manner of thinking about an idea that most won't be able to see in the expanded notations.

As such those familiar with the field often abstract away the minutia.

I always heard a rather unfair terse statement about science. If you have to read the articles introduction section, you probably shouldn't be reading the article. That's wildly unfair but does reflect that academia is mostly concerned with academics in the same field.

The north American equivalent of the Nazca lines (the Blythe intaglios [1]) are just as visible, simply not as numerous and importantly, they don't have a decades-long presence in the public mind as an enduring archaeological mystery.

The Pinephone Pro ISP is documented in RK3399 TRM (part3), and in various PDFs available online. It's not really a huge blackbox.

It does not make the calibration (or preparation of profiles for various light conditions) easy though. There's a need for a bunch of HW tooling that is somewhat expensive for a hobbyist. And there's a lot of work and algorithm design that needs to be done outside of ISP for controling the autofocus, autoexpsoure and detection of type lighting in the scene and profile switching. None of this is particularly trivial.

I think weak references solves that issue.

Long term stays get into complications that you can become a tenant and then fall under tenant protections.

The problem of Airbnb squatters who have gained tenant protections from a sufficiently lengthy stay and then refuse to leave... and needing to go through formal eviction proceedings is a real problem.

I'm an Android user which has had Dvorak phone keyboards for years and I've used them since I switched to Dvorak on the desktop. I'm sure there's not the same benefit, but I can touch type on my phone pretty well, and I definitely can't do that with qwerty. It's probably just habit, but it's nice to have the option. I'll definitely be switching over my iPad keyboard.

> which would lead to memory leaks in any sufficiently complex program.

Memory leaks (and more generally resource leaks) are not generally considered memory safety issues.

After all, that's basically what an advanced GC manages for you: you leak memory, and it tries to clean up after you. But whether it does is entirely up to it and its configuration (nothing precludes disabling it and leaking all the memory, there's nothing actionable at the language level).
They are all over. There is a co-op in my college town of Fayetteville, AR. I was not a member but it's successful.
This point came up in another comment, and it's definitely reasonable - but I still don't see why DJI would require your location when using products other than drones, which they do. And as I noted before, they are providing an app which has been axed from the official store. Aside from this, as I'm sure you're aware, any information that DJI collect has a nonzero chance of being handed over the the Chinese authorities for any reason whatsoever.
Not a surprising conclusion based on how Facebook was founded and by whom.

What do you mean it's comparable? Does it support multiple compilers? CFLAGS? Out of source builds? "compile_commands.json" generation? Automatic header dependency monitoring?

Also I've actually checked that Makefile, and it errored out (macOS):

Agreed, but my point is that without serious government funding and general intervention DJI are far too far ahead for European companies to catch up.
My issue with many Latex replacements is that doing citations is painful: Standard Markdown can't do them. Pandoc makes them really hard and confusing for some reason. VScode's Markdown dialect doesn't support them. Texmacs makes you refresh your document over and over before you see them.

With other replacements, I've encountered other problems: VScode's Asciidoc plugin didn't support inline formulas last time I checked. Org-mode had a steep learning curve last time I tried.

How's Lyx for people?

There is indeed a lot of red tape but these are the avenues to fire someone:

- Severe underperformance (building of a dossier over months will be necessary for solid proof).

- The employee doesn't come to work anymore without a valid reason

- There is the 'faute grave' reason. It means that the person did something very very bad in the company, for instance sexual assault, or put critical assets in jeopardy, fraud, blatant misbehavior, stuff like that.

Usually there is at least a 8 month probation period (for engineers and most high paying jobs) in which you can fire someone with between 2 days and 2 weeks notice. No need for a reason whatsoever. (This applies to France)
No, as a rule, recipes aren't copyrightable.

The specific wording and 'flourish' of recipes is copyrightable, but the actual factual, meaningful content - the one which impacts the 'success' of the recipe - fundamentally can't be restricted by copyright, you can't get an exclusive monopoly to make a particular concoction through copyright law (you can with patent law, but it has other restrictions).

It's similar to copyright on design for e.g. clothing - the arbitrary artistic parts can be protected with copyright, but the functional parts can not be restricted that way.

So if you know how to make Coca Cola and want to do that, copyright law won't protect that. Perhaps patent law might (I'm not certain) but there is no patent on the Coca Cola recipe - and if there was, the recipe would have to be published in the patent application, and it would expire in 20 years, unlike copyright. However, you could not freely say that it's exactly like Coca Cola (trademark laws would restrict that), and it does matter how you got that recipe - trade secrets are protected, and if you got the recipe through illegal means (e.g. breaking&entering, or bribing an employee) then you could have repercussions for that.
COTS wasn't delivery-based, they got most of the funding in the concept phase, way before a working rocket.

Hello Fernando, this is Mish from Step CI

We're glad you liked the idea! I had this idea in my head for about 2 years until I met Sebastian and we decided to give it a try!

They would solve the issue only if the language itself forbid the programmer from creating cyclic strong references. If that's the case, then I was wrong in my original comment.

Although the thought of forbidding arbitrary references feels a little restrictive to me - it would be placing the burden of keeping a tree of references onto the programmer. I don't know how well that works in practice. Perhaps trying out some of the mentioned languages would be insightful.
What is the source of the 700 millions number? Is that the global total? It can be a problem because each country has a different sign language.
You have a point, but memory leaks generally aren't considered as problematic as other memory issues, such as buffer overruns and use after free. While they can cause programs to crash and degrade, they generally don't corrupt program data or lead to security vulnerabilities.

As such, people often don't include protection from memory leaks as a criterion for 'memory safety'. It's possible to explicitly leak memory in the safe subset of Rust (e.g. Box::leak). It's also possible to 'leak' memory in GC'd languages too by keeping old references around you'll never use, although this example is just arguing semantics even more.
It can depend on your precise definition of "safe". If you define it in terms of accessing correct memory, leaked memory may be inconvenient, it may be "incorrect", but it is safe. It is not, on its own, a security issue (other than eventually leading to possible program termination due to resource exhaustion, which is considered a security issue but I've always thought of this as generally "just barely" in the security class of issue). It may be chained into one if some other bug allowed access to it, but that "some other bug" would itself be the memory unsafe bug.
Well, first argument is that it actually IS enough for lots of small tools, and second argument is that if it's not enough and must be extended, it still requires much less complication than an equivalent Makefile.
Have you ever configured a generic MIPI LCD panel and showing a custom splash screen?

With EDK2, on x86?

Or configure and tuning some custom DDR that happen to be already soldered on the board? Or bootstraping some parameters from an EEPROM or external microcontroller?

Compiling and customizing EDK2 for x86 (to boot Windows) was a nightmare and I never want to do it again. I'd rather "make aboot -j8" my entire life.

Please tell me you've found the secret formula to automagically add ANY display panel purchased somewhere in Asia, on x86. Otherwise I'll back to praise the devicetree.
There is nothing better? Maybe it is just a bias, since you know all the quirks.

20 years ago I did my thesis in Word 2000 with some plugin for equations. It was far better than latex. I had to insert some hard page breaks, instead of learning completely new language!

Great quick read, tldr they took a bunch of bullet time photos in a circle around someone, made a bunch of vertical wood cutouts of the silhouettes and then wedged them together vertically / radially and filled the gaps with clay. The freaky picture helps.

Or I guess I could get a bunch of cameras and sheets of wood...
With current sanctions, Russia can still earn money selling fuel to the EU, sure, but they have trouble spending it! They are already using more older missiles, having gone through the majority of their newer ones at the beginning of their invasion, when they thought it would be quick and easy.

They do have thousands of missiles left, although mostly the older, smaller ones as far as anyone can tell, and it's not easy for them to replace any of them.

People who think this look at a product made by 83,000 people and to them, it looks pretty similar to a product made by 83 people.

Some of those workers are working on a large-scale product that scales imperfectly. Sysadmins to rack new servers, human moderators to respond to users' reports, whatever. 1 per 20,000 users and a few billion users is a lot of workers. On the other hand, none of these companies are famous for their high-touch, responsive customer support.

Some of those workers are working very intensely on things that are completely invisible to end users. Applying security patches to backend servers. Training their workers to recognise the signs of modern slavery. Building their own in-house Linux distribution. Products that get cancelled before launch. Getting that newly acquired company onto your corporate platform.

And some of those workers are working on things that are marginally invisible to end users. Ad sales, feed ranking algorithms, spam detection.

Some of those workers are working on new, customer-facing but peripheral things, that have escaped notice because they're at a small scale, or unpopular. Shorts on youtube, for example.

To a critic, these manual scaling support, invisible and almost-invisible efforts don't count - and if you only count customer-facing features, that seems like a lot of developers and not much development.
Facebook is an ad company, and if that market is declining, those cuts may come from non-technical groups meant to serve those accounts and markets. There are likely other programs necessary with high marketing needs that I could imagine need culling and thus fewer people.

LunarVim: An IDE layer for Neovim with sane defaults written in Lua
Ford has a patent out on a removable bed box that contains a range extender. Looks like it's not just a defensive patent either; they have been spotted testing something very similar. With a big battery capable of providing extra juice when climbing long hills or accelerating they should be able to put a fairly small engine in and always run it at peak efficiency.

Especially if they can be rented from a dealer it would really takes care of the casual truck user's needs. I have a buddy who daily drives his F-150 to work and then a couple times a year tows a big camper long distance for family vacations. His daily needs could easily be electric and he could rent an extender for 3 or 4 weeks a year to tow with. It would still slash his annual fuel consumption and as biodiesel or other synthetic fuel becomes available/reasonably practical even with a big truck his carbon emissions would be very low (it does help the grid here in Ontario is extremely clean already)

>The problem with your doctor's recommendation is that doctors recommend colonoscopy based on age, not whether you have any factors that might indicate colon cancer.

This study is meant to inform the public health policy of asymptomatic screening. They tried to see if there was a benefit in offering screenings to random patients, regardless of medical history. The currently recommended screenings for asymptomatic people were adopted because meta-analyses showed they reduced cancer mortality. In the US, the US Preventive Services Task Force keeps up with new studies and revises their recommendations: https://uspreventiveservicestaskforce.org/uspstf/home.

For people with family history or other risk factors, doctors will follow different screening guidelines or just order tests whenever they think it useful.
Your comment is an example of the statistical/scientific misunderstandings that lead to 'overdiagnosis' https://www.cancer.gov/publications/dictionaries/cancer-term...

Not all cancer is the same.

Every person will have some amount of cancer as they get older. Some of the cancer will not be aggressive or disruptive enough to cause a problem before the person dies of another old-age related infirmary.

Treating cancer is not free. Treatment reduces the quality of life of the person treated. Elderly people are slower to heal, and more at risk for complications. To treat a cancer that would not cause problems in the natural lifespan of its host is an expensive mistake.

Screening technology can expand our ability to detect cancer without giving us the insight to know dangerous cancer from inconsequential cancer. When we go on to treat inconsequential cancer we've actually reduced the years of healthy life of the patient.
Given that many 'memory safe' languages offer escape hatches for non-memory-safe code, shouldn't the answer rather obviously be "always"? Assuming no extra constraints like compatibility with a large amount of non-memory-safe code, and that the language is actually fit for purpose (don't use js for kernel modules, nim as a procedural language in postgres)
I don't think you've lived somewhere that has failing city services. One of the last places I rented for a while, the city was the only trash service. Optimistically my trash would get collected 3 times a month at best. Sometimes I was lucky to get trash picked up 2 times a month. We frequently had a "queue" of trash bags that had to be loaded after each trash day. I remember moving out and leaving a backlog of trash in the garage, simply because I had no way to dispose of it all.

And when the trash isn't collected on my day? Better bring the can in immediately, otherwise I'll get fined by the city for having my can out too long.

In the same place, the government mandated regulated power simply decided that they were not going to read my meter because of a "dog behind the gate" (there was no gate). Their solution was to have me pay an "estimated" charge that was several times my monthly income.

It's absolutely unlivable long term to be some place like that.

The existence of side-by-side GUI representations of LaTeX (eg overleaf) demonstrates your point well IMO.

It seems to be a common pattern for many to render their pdf every paragraph or so, check, then tweak as desired. It may be a bad habit to be broken but it’s driven by a real need to make sure the final product is good. However good LaTeX or ones ability with it is, software should have tests … right … surely the visual checks a an essential necessity at some point?
To the extent that we can assess it by this single study, yes.

There is no answer to the question you're asking. You're seeking absolute certainty where none can be had. We only know what we know as far as we know it. Always and everywhere.

The best of both worlds is to have us funding and east european r&d. Considering how low taxes are for SE in many countries in the region pay can be high and talent can be attracted. The EU guarantees freedom of movement and as such workers can freely move west to east. The higher take home pay will be very attractive.
You can also use `gh` and `gl` for start and end of line (and `gs` for first non-whitespace character in line). These options (among others) pop up when using helix and typing `g`.
Version control configured for text should not split the text at newlines. It should split at full stops, commas, etc... Ideally it also should understand the hierarchy implied.

The fact that we are using a tool chain built for kernel hacking to version control Text documents is a further problem.

The workflow and presentation of Word or Google Docs in track changes mode is the gold standard here and is what people that edit text for a living actually use. (As much as I hate that fact when I am forced to move my latex documents into their workflows).

Yes I agree with you. But is America more interested in its people (humans) or its corporations (which according to American law they are people). And how do these decisions affect the world as a whole? Is America such a special place that it should be above every other country in the world?

I think in many ways, America (the nation) falls into pretty much the same trap that Musk falls into but on a higher level of complexity. The so called American exceptionalism. In reality, you see this thinking permeate every level. Apple definitely thinks they know best, so do every other company, so do their boards, so do their billionaires, so does their country. So I'm not sure I agree when you say that Musk doesn't get it, I think he gets it very well but doesn't get it right. And neither does anyone in America (the nation).

But historically this phenomenon isn't something that's unique to America but it is the curse of pretty much every empire in history. Every empire thinks they're the one to lead the world to greatness and they of course play a part. But every empire rises and then falls. So why would America be any different? I believe we're only going to get out of this trap when the world truly comes together and power and decision making become completely decentralised.
