Thought the same thing at first. Very silly indeed if you envision a boxer. On second thought, movements rather resemble those of a small child.
I'm considering adding that feature in future versions depending on interest.
Interesting. The page mentions Michel Ugon (who died in December 2021) as the "true inventor of the smart card". Where Moreno patented the memory card, Ugon invented the microprocessor card and then the SPOM, Self-Programmable One chip Memory). Chips on modern smart cards are essentially the same as the one Ugon created.

There was a lot of animosity between him and Moreno, and there were lengthy trials to invalidate Moreno's claim to the paternity of the smart card idea (allegedly stolen from Bull, Ugon's employer). Regardless of this controversy, it's sad that Michel Ugon didn't get the same recognition as Moreno, since he was the one who miniaturised the microprocessor and memory into one chip. Basically putting a computer in people's pockets decades before the iPhone. Moreno certainly worked hard to make it look as the invention of a lone (self-made) inventor, but the smart card was anything but that.

Love the project! Sorry to be pedantic, but the claim is technically false. You don't actually support HTML and CSS. You support JSX. As someone who doesn't use React due to the abomination of mixing html and css within the JS, do you have plans to actually support regular HTML and CSS? Or provide a dedicated transpiler? (I'm not familiar with the react ecosystem, so likely one already exists?)

>People who decry central banks managing the supply of money seem only to have one, bad argument, "intuitively, money is a commodity and printing dilutes its value" -- well money is not a commodity.

No. I'm saying inflation through money printing is mathematically equivalent to taxation, as it causes the same level of loss in buying power. Since one of these is more transparent in what is actually happening (taxation), that one should be used.

Additionally money printing largely affects people who hold cash which is primarily poor people. Anyone who has money invested in the marked will not be affected. Taxation can be applied selectively. Money printing is effectively a hidden tax (thus not gaining the unpopularity it deserves), which selectively favours the rich, to which a better - or at least more honest - approach exists.

Not to mention that money printing is controlled by people who were never elected and have no mandate from the electorate.

So today the issue with traditional animations is that you get all humans have same height, same proportions, like for example in The sims games all adults have exactly same height though you have different body shapes. If you use mods to change height, or legs length then things no longer align, like siting on a chair. This means chairs, beds,tables, doors all have the same height.

Not sure if this diffusion is the answer but some smarter way to extrapolate existing animation to work with bodies and objects that are 10-20% different and look natural.

The city of Chicago privatized parking tickets, but levies no fines (to my knowledge) on abuse of the system.

So abuse in the system is rampant by parking enforcement. Everyone I know who drives in the city has crazy stories of bullshit tickets or tows.

> Poverty, inequality, ignorance, lack of health support for drug users, all bring violence.

This is certainly not generally true. There are many countries with much greater poverty, inequality, and ignorance (at least measured by education) than the US that have much less violent crime. I'd imagine having more drug users per capita has a significant effect on violent crime everywhere however.

We often hear that choosing the right algorithm will get rid of all performance problems. There is no "need" to understand what is happening under the hood and all programmers should only work at higher levels of abstraction.

My take away from this question and and the top answer was that the above is not true. It does not mean that everyone has to code using assembly - it means that good programmers are aware of where their abstractions may leak.

Given a tool sophisticated enough to track variable scope (not a tall order), this absolutely can be fixed mechanically.
Horizontally. The square forming the new base of the upper segment, and the square forming the new top of the lower segment. They should be the same size, but if they were the Pyramid couldn't taper smaller and smaller towards the top, so the lower face needs to be a few 'elements' more diminutive. .. of course it would depend if you cut it in half between two stone layers, or half way through one stone layer, and if your cut lined up with the top or bottom of the kings chamber or not.
If I understand correctly the fix requires the new code to add a line in go.mod to use the new behavior. This is about the same as adding x:=x in the loop, and more hidden. Not good.

The alternative can be that whenever address of iteration variable is used inside the loop the variable is per iteration and otherwise it is per loop. This way it is not breaking the old code and have new semantics.
Ah, my apologies; I missed that part. (I last used Go a decade ago, long before go.mod.)

Then this seems fairly reasonable, given also how rarely things will depend on one way or the other.

> There's much more of a focus on punishment instead of reintegration.

Yup, this is a cultural thing. In the US, people (in general) want criminals to be punished, they don't put too much value in rehabilitation. It's very different from many European countries which is visible in sentencing.

> I haven't encountered evidence that would suggest that the US is better at preventing crime than others.

On the contrary, there's much more crime in the US than most western countries. Whether this has anything to do with punishment vs rehabilitation is impossible to say though. I personally think that lack of many social services is more to blame. Things like social security, public housing mixed with private, health care, workers rights, et cetera mean less people end up in criminality in the first place.

Recidivism rates unfortunately are extremely hard to compare due to the methods and sentencing being extremely different.

This is not really what's happening. The variable is scoped to the loop. The issue is that even if you take the address of the variable, each iteration of the loop will have the same variable with the same address.

nums := []int{1, 2, 3}
for _, num := range nums {
fmt.Printf("%p\n", &num)
}

This will print the same address three times. If you add "num := num" as the first line in the loop, it will print three different addresses. The proposal is to make this the default behaviour.

But Facebook hates its own users so much, it’s willing to crush an alternative that gives them a clean, ad-free Instagram.

Ask the Celsius investors whether they, in hindsight, would have preferred custody over their investment in the way that Aave users have come to have. Most would say yes.

If you are just storing a moderate amount of USD in an account with no interest, the safest option is a bank with FDIC insurance. If you don’t happen to live in a country with this kind of banking and insurance, or if you are investing higher than FDIC limits, or you are seeking higher yield, this is where people begin to look at options like Celsius and Aave.
Why? It costs more to produce.
Oops. Yeppers.
> whenever address of iteration variable is used

That wouldn't fix the closure problem where the address isn't taken.
It’s interesting that you bring up theses specific questions. Ask yourself: why is the U.S. riddled with violent gangs? Why is it bordered by failed narco-controlled states? Why do large chunks live in inner city crime-infested ghettos (and why are there ghettos in the inner cities in the first place)? Many would argue that all these are home-made problems. Imprisoning the victims of this system can’t conceivably be the solution, and might in fact only make it worse (mass imprisonment has many bad societal effects).
Someone drinking really regularly fires up their MEOS which also reduces/oxidises alcohol and can significantly speed up standard drinks per hour. Like, in the realm of double.

Fwiw the issue occurs in langages of category (1) though only in a subset of the cases. Generally closures as they implicitly take references on their lexical context.

It also occurs in langages of category (2), specifically C++ lambdas where i think it can cause UAF/UB. I assume it also happens in C with the block extension (is that still Apple specific?) though I don’t know the details of that thing so maybe not.
Should be noted that a)virtually nobody used the compression method in question and b)in the few examples they did, it was quickly found to be harmful, modifying digits and letters.

That compression format should have been aggressively removed once the flaws were uncovered. It presented a real-life danger on so many fronts. Imagine engineering documents, medication orders, architectural specs, you name it. That compression algorithm easily could have killed people.
