I was gonna say that's possible in Rust and also isn't a big problem but the more I think about it the more this comes up.

First, languages where a compiler plug-in or linter do this don't really count, because you can't extend it and they rely on specific tools. Even Rust, which has relatively good meta-programming, is very cumbersome to use. Writing proc macros is known as an archaic skill that – even though it is technically also in Rust (which is nice) – involves heavy manipulation of ASTs and has numerous pitfalls. It would be better to leave the ASTs for compiler folks if possible.

It get the sense that these features can be really useful for deserialization, which is a very common use-case in regular software development. Even where it's safe, like in Rust, deserialization is prone to logic errors and often requires lots of boilerplate (unless you use an existing library but then you must rely on unintelligible proc macro wizardry).
Edge cases are fun!
From my view it’s the right that is making education more arduous, especially for teachers at every step of the process. I haven’t seen anyone on the left try to censor teachers or cut their funding. “Girls who code” was huge at my inner city high school. Funded by the left. Democrat politicians fought constantly to make the schools better while republicans campaigned on vouchers that would mean poor students are stuck in schools with less funding while rich ones get a cheaper private education. I think you’re falling for the trap of only ingesting the “outrage” news and letting the normal stuff pass you by(maybe I'm just projecting because i fall for that all the time unfortunately).

> more rigorous curriculum for all instead of for the elite students

This is called common core and was implemented with widespread bipartisan support. Really we all agree on most things.

That’s not to say there aren’t problems with the left. You just seem to have misunderstood them. For example, charter schools seem to be a good solution that combines choice with not leaving out those unable to pay. Yet both sides seem adamantly against them for their own reasons.

> by merely asking such questions I'm a far right, a racist, and of course, a fascist

Now we're really getting into speculation territory, but my hunch is that you've gotten these negative reactions because the people you are talking to/arguing with believe they are already supporting these initiatives and therefore that your complaints are in bad faith.
FTA: "Those 402 stops resulted in three reported drug seizures: about 10 grams of drugs from one passenger, 26 grams of “suspected THC gummies” from another, and six prescription pills without a prescription from a third, the lawsuit says. Only the first and third person were charged.

Those 402 stops also yielded more than $1 million in cash and money orders from a total of 25 passengers."

Sounds like a government sanctioned shakedown operation with a thin veneer of the drug war to explain it. Sickening. Civil forfeiture must stop.
Surveillance is the big one, I think. Speak to anyone who has worked at a call center. They track you like crazy, and keep every metric imaginable. Imagine how much worse it would be if they were enabled to literally track your eye movements.
People have varying quality tooth enamel. My friend is meticulous with oral care yet still gets cavities. Her brother-in-law is her dentist (and mine). He said there's not much she can do to improve it.
> Mandating that X% of your interviews

“2 of the candidates you interview must meet these gender/racial requirements” is a mandate, but it’s not a percentage mandate. I know that’s a little pedantic, but I think it’s important pedantry, because you keep using percentages:

> With a pool of four people, which isn’t uncommon in my experience, that means 50% of the interviews are locked behind racial and gender requirements.

That’s only true if you are limited to just four people, which obviously you are not. You may feel it’s an unfair burden on the hiring manager to expand the candidate pool if necessary to meet the racial and gender requirements, but that’s not an argument about discrimination.

> Setting X to 100 just makes it very clear.

I sincerely believe setting X to 100 makes it a different argument. :) “All of your candidates must be X” is manifestly not the same as “some of your candidates must be X”. (The former may require you to leave out candidates you think are qualified, the latter does not, for a start, which strikes me as an extremely important distinction in this context.)

I don’t have a VR headset. OP was suggesting that no one wants it, I was just raising my hand and indicating what use cases appeal to me.
There's a guy who tested his own LBM solver on a space shuttle model https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AzxwQpng0M at 60x higher resolution than the largest Space Shuttle CFD simulation ever done by NASA. Took 6 hours to calculate on an academia GPU setup.

Edit: He also says it's full engineering accuracy, not cheap CGI CFD that only has to look plausible. You could extract pressures, forces from the surfaces and use it for analysis. He's done extensive validation for his academic work.
> There is nothing unusual about having to install developer tools.

And yet, only in MacOS I need to install 670 MB of junk to install, say, git. Why?

> Are you saying you didn’t realize MacOS is now aimed at consumers?

This doesn't explain why I need to install 670 MB of tools to install separate developer tools that are not even Apple's.
>Use it for training, especially on-site training,

wouldn't this be off-site training? if you were on-site, why would you need the VR unit?
Did you ever try Stadia on hardware similar to these laptops? I did, and to be honest I thought performance was excellent. On my Pixel Slate, my 2015 XPS13, and my M2 MacBook Air - all gave great performance with no observable lag or bandwidth issues, even when playing on WiFi and streaming Netflix at the same time over a 76Mb/s connection. The only time the experience degraded was, oddly, when using the Stadia-bundled Chromecast, which even had a wired connection.

Sadly, like basically everyone else, I never trusted Google enough to buy into the ecosystem - and consequently bought a grand total of 1 game.
Our school's IT department used to go around with wireless scanners to make sure nobody was running networks without the school's permission. I knew people who got busted for stuff like that, but my roommates and I eventually hacked a way around this by naming our network "Dave's iPhone Hotspot" and never had any issues. At that point, the webserver moved from my boyfriend's place back to my own until we moved off campus the following year.
> Imagine if a slate of candidates were all black. That would seem kind of odd, right?

Why would that be odd? It does happen in sport, and nobody cares (nor should they).

> So a good thing to do is apply some pressure

Why is it good? Author talks about not being able to hire for several months due to lack of DIE candidates in the pipeline.

Of course a giant like Microsoft can afford to waste resources, but for a lot of startups doubling down on DIE means to literally die.
It's pretty obvious actually. They want memory safety and predictable, good performance. Rust is the goto language for that in sysdev today. Go is a much better candidate than the ones you mention, but there are legitimate reasons to want to avoid GC.

Additionally, the intersection of people who are interested in working on low level system daemons and people who prefer Haskell/OCaml must be pretty small compared to Rust.
I use mutt but will give this a try.

But another perspective on why use a cli over a regular client. Though there's a bit of a vogue for terminal apps in dev circles, I don't favour them in general. I like GUIs. I want my computer to use 21st century tech for UIs.

But unfortunately (on Linux at least) all the GUI IMAP clients I've tried are terrible. Not because they are GUIs but because they're all either buggy or have awful 1990s corporate interface design or lack even essential keyboard shortcuts, or are just infeasably slow.

So mutt it is, which at least seems to be well-crafted, is quick, and can be configured to be pretty usable. I'd replace it with an excellent GUI app if there were such a thing.
Quickly joining NATO for Russia was never considered in these talks.
So you're okay with Lebron's children being given advantages in hiring process over a poor white candidate?
> You yourself say "they tried for months and were still unsuccessful at finding a single one". Why do you think that is?

I'll chime in here that if a person works at Microsoft and has the resources of Microsoft recruiting on their side, that they are in a better position than most to end up with a wide choice of applicants. Microsoft can sponsor visas if need be, and their compensation is generally high enough to merit consideration of relocation, if necessary. (Worth noting here that a non-diverse slate of applicants is in many cases a process smell that your pipeline sucks.)

We also don't know for what role(s) the author was hiring. While the assumption here seems to be that they were having trouble finding a diverse slate of applicants for "Senior AI Researcher, PhD and 20+ years experience required," for all we know they are whining that they couldn't get applicants to be CRUD programmers building out APIs, or PMs, or doc writers, or any of the other myriad roles that go into shipping software. Given that, we don't really know where to place blame. Could be that this manager just sucks at their job.
> The Tesla plug and cable weigh significantly less than the standard ones. Enough so that elderly people will have a hard time using standard vs Tesla plugs.

The plug is pretty negligible. For the cables, that's entirely up to the installer whether they want to use active cooling to make things lighter.

> CSS is rated to 200A, and I believe Tesla is too.

They both have versions that go to 500 amps.

> To get higher power Tesla is going to higher voltage battery with the same charging current - same conductors. This seems to be a trend as well.

Many other cars have beat Tesla on that front, doubling their voltages to 800-ish, which is close to the max of CCS.
> Why are Asians doing so well?

Are they ? Or is it merely a reflection of statistics and biased sampling ?

~50% of the world's population lives in Indian subcontinent + China. Ofc they represent a majority of skilled immigrants in the western world. The reason Indians and Chinese are the most accomplished immigrants in the US is because the US does not allow any Indians or Chinese to immigrate unless they are already on-track to be highly accomplished. The Indians that aren't doing well are all back in India. It is a self-fulfilling prophecy.

As the US raises the standards for the kinds of Indians and Chinese that can immigrate to the US, you are sampling from smarter and smarter sub-groups. This leads to soft-eugenics where children of Chinese and Indian immigrant groups will inevitably be smarter than resident populations. Additionally, because only certain kinds of Indians and Chinese are allowed to succeed in this country (high skilled STEM immigrants), it forms insular elite-STEM peer groups and resulting relationships mimic eugenic patterns that would make Hitler proud. (This would be valid for both nature and nature proponents)

> Why can't we replicate this for other groups?

Assuming that this is some combination of nature and nurture, it must first start at trying to observe these with some level of granularity.

Is there anything noticeably different in the 'nature' side of Indian and Chinese immigrants? Yes, the US only allows incredibly high-IQ Indians and Chinese immigrants to come here. Have we tried observing how similar filters have worked out for immigrants from other racial groups ?

Indian and Chinese families in the US have well known group-level differences in how children are nurtured. Have we tried observing success rates for low-achievement immigrant groups with similar nurture methods ?

The answer for both is a big 'No'. If you don't try to run even the most basic of controlled studies across groups, then how can you ever observe correlations let alone causality for differences in group level performance ?

Good faith social studies on group level differences must go into with the intellectual curiosity to allow for outcomes that violate the current academic ideological status-quos. I suspect that no one in academia wants to risk their careers by doing a study that might report: "differences between groups persist even after accounting for systemic differences in opportunity". So they just refuse to do the research instead. On the other hand, genomics keeps quietly trudging along with society-altering results, while pretending as if there is nothing to see here.

Pretty sure that’s a common expression (in American English too) referring not to URLs but making contact with people.

Sites with high solar pv potential from insolation might not be arable land. It's not just about land area, it's about other productive uses of land. Former Brown field sites are contaminated and unsitable for primary production of crops. Arid lands in the dustbowl have been overcropped. Use them for solar, and vertical farm nearby or wear transmission losses.

Also does not consider surplus PV and time shifting of energy for net benefit: we need loads which can handle the variability of PV and wind, vertical farming might be useful for load shed/balance
Articles like this gloss over the very real progress that’s happening.

I was astounded by the latest Tesla FSD release shown off by YouTubers. I had no idea it was starting to perform so naturally.

Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHadhx3c840

Earlier videos of the system were downright scary, but now it almost looks like a human is driving.

Imagine if someone said “$100 billion and ten years later and all we have is biplanes” or “$100 billion and ten years later and we don’t even have Internet yet, we just have plain old microcomputers” and assumed that progress would just be stopped right then and there, because that’s what this article is really getting at.
Old games require being run as Administrator. In addition, user/kernel isn't the important security boundary you think it is. My tax returns, my pictures, my passwords, all of the data I actually care about is stored in files accessible in user space.
This might be an overkill, but you can host internal domain using public DNS.

I've got a domain, and I've added multiple A records pointing to IPs of servers in my 192.168.X.Y NAT. This has a downside thought, that with short enough TTL, you may not be able to access your server during intermittent connectivity problems.

I'm using letsencrypt through traefik for the certs.
A top comment on that video puts it into perspective well. That whole setup can store the energy of a single AA battery.

He would be so much better off just charging a cheap battery. All the money wasted on pumps, wood, barrel, pipes....
Sure, but that isn't Reddit's problem. Reddit can't step in and choose sides based on he said/she said accusations about moderation drama. The fact is, this person handed over ownership of the sub to somebody else willingly. That's the end of it. Discord was another matter.
It means people make posts like this poster has made here. (This is an honest answer based on my experience.)
I have an old MacBook with a cd/dvd-r drive and SD card reader in it. I literally keep this machine just to use these features. I never understood the incentive for getting rid of them. The cd/dvd drive was something I used every day when that was my primary computer.
> that means that lower access to education and economic attainment

But you're not arguing that we give opportunities to people without good access to education and poor finances. You're arguing we give opportunity based off race. In fact, there are far more white people in the US with poor access to education. If you really wanted to increase opportunities for such people you wouldn't accomplish it by judging by race.
This line from the article sums up my feelings pretty well:

> I’m pretty technically capable but I’m not sure I can be bothered.

All this sounds fun and a cool throwback, but it's also rather more work than I'm willing to put up with right now.
Volume and effort.

Likes and such are distracting as they are attract the wrong people (attention seekers) or give off the wrong impression (false flags). The former is very prominent against men, the latter is very prominent against women.

Volume exasperates both this problem and the problem of choice. There are so many choices for so little effort, people are drowning in it and not investing enough to feel attached to their choices. Where before you had to invest more time into an individual person and your other options where far more limited, now you have far more choice for less effort when you're on the winning side of the market.

Some poster posted a few sources one time on a similar topic regarding the importance of investment and how people will generally stick together when invested. It's the initial investment which is missing. The fact ghosting as a concept didn't just come into existence, but is so omnipresent among both sexes, speaks for itself.
I think TextNow offers a better solution and I've been using it to do this for quite some time and it doesn't require any kind of forwarding. I can send/receive calls and messages directly from within its app and recycle numbers at any time - all for free (ad supported). Calls are of great quality too and it even includes voicemail. If I really like a number and want to lock it (to also receive 2FA codes), it's a yearly $7 fee. Works with area codes in US and Canada.

I think there are other options like Fongo and probably a dozen other similar services that already have been doing this for some time. Not really seeing the value proposition of going with the Mozilla option here. Am I missing something?
What games get wrong about horses
> What is that thing?

The people who study this stuff seriously end up concluding that cultural and domestic factors are the biggest predictor. There are plenty of minority groups who at one point didn't have any stuff, and were discriminated against (Jews, Irish, Italians, Chinese, Japanese, etc.). The main difference seems to be cultural values that prioritize the nuclear family and educational attainment. The SAT isn't racist, poor black people who study do far better than rich white people who don't.

If America was so racist, the single most successful ethnic minority wouldn't be Nigerians. It has nothing to do with race and everything to do with the culture, family, and values you grew up with.
Every time I think of geothermal, I can't help but wonder what the at-scale externalities are. Sure, if a few people do it in their backyard, who cares...but hundreds of millions of people pumping heat into the ground to store for later? What terrible ecological outcomes will this have?

I guess we'll see.
When I was young (teens to early 20s) I self identified as gay. And I can remember not being very convinced by the existence of genuinely bi people.

Then I fell in love with a woman, still happily monogamously married to after many years.

These days I would self identify as human. But I guess you could call me bi: I still find attractive men attractive.

I'm not sure what I would seek these days if I were single.

I already feel that way in my Oculus Quest 2!

In my opinion there is something different about being "embodied" in a 3D virtual environment that is all around you, seeing the gestures of people you interact with and moving around. Certain human interaction modes, such as moving closer to hear someone, looking at the person you are talking to, gesturing to highlight conversation points etc are already qualitatively different in VR than video games imo. And it looks like this will further increase in the future with face tracking etc.
Presumably a Masters (but not PhD) might be suitable as a "booster" for an ailing career, on top of being a career-changer. But I also see OP doesn't seem to doing terrible on their own. I only suggest it as a way to pull yourself out of a dump and have nowhere else to turn for help.
Not really, unless you can find a contrasting definition to one found on WorldReference. Puncture is defined as making a hole in surface (the boundary) rather a volume (the solid). In any case this goes off topic. You've apparently misunderstood what people usually mean with hole. (edit: Or maybe I've. Now I'm confused. Here goes the rest of my day thinking about the meaning of holes.)
Thanks for being the only one to respond, I was hoping this thread would gain more traction but it unfortunately did not.
The statement can mean whatever the language designers decide it should mean, and one plausible meaning is to introduce a new scope for the body of the loop. It's not even something unique in Python, given that sequence comprehensions do just that; e.g. this prints 0,1,...,9:

for f in (lambda: print(i) for i in range(0, 10)): f()

Unfortunately, Python is simply inconsistent in this regard. For example, list comprehensions leak the variable for back-compat reasons, so if you substitute (lambda: ...) with [lambda: ...] above, you'll get a bunch of 9s.

But, backwards compatibility aside, the language could change to make for-loops behave like sequence comprehensions wrt scoping.
"Fifty-eight women were randomized and 31 (53.44%) were lost to follow-up at 12 months. Dropout rates were similar between groups. In the intention-to-treat analysis, there were no significant changes in the body weight after 12 months (Differences in changes from baseline between groups: −0.05 95%CI [-2.34; 2.24] Kg; p = 0.96). An increase in axillary temperature (0.40 °C, 95% CI [-0.14; 0.67]°C, p < 0.01), a reduction in the percentage of body fat (−1.64%, 95% CI [-3.08; −0.19]%, p = 0.02) and waist circumference (−2.57 cm, 95% CI [-5.73; 0.58] cm, p = 0.03 in the mixed model involving 4 measurements) were observed in the intervention group, when compared to the control group."
