I don't think people are going to come to the conclusion you want. I thought I understood your position at the start but by the end I am just scratching my head here. You seem to admit covid is airborne yet at the same time are adamant 6 feet of social distancing stops covid and prevents countries from having a 4% IFR. Yet South Korea doesn't seem to have gone past a 2.5% IFR and wiki seems to imply they did not lock down and Italy was one of the first to lockdown and had the highest IFR? Wouldn't this actual data invalidate your claim without lockdowns IFR would be 4%?

Wouldn't is just be easer to admit your wrong and that 6 feet social distancing does not stop covid. You were originally told incorrect information by, well everyone, and now that you know covid is airborne the 6 feet was worthless.

Edit: spelling
You still have to define the aliases or source your aliases file in every script though.
Yeah, but those are unconstitutional laws to begin with. Feds are probably smart to let this go, least they end up with a new Supreme Court precedent.
Yup. Made a massive mistake getting an AMD graphics card last time around. Has never worked for any ML workload ever.

The two have nothing in common (and trust me, it sure is fun having to constantly make sure which of the two someone is actually referring to every time...).
Lisp lists aren't linked lists. Pointers to TWO pointers (first pointer is named car, and the 2nd pointer is named cdr).

The realization that (cons) / Lisp-lists / car-and-cdr give is that you can represent arbitrary graphs (!!!) with car / cdr / cons, leading to a truly universal data-structure.

Not necessarily an _efficient_ datastructure mind you, but a universal one.

------

So really, Lisp-lists are just the "try to represent your problem as a graph" and it really works 99% of the time, because graphs are just so flexible of a concept.

For example, take the HTML of this webpage. <DOCTYPE> <blah blah blah> and all that. Its pretty obvious how to convert it into an equivalent (DOCTYPE (blah blah blah) (p) ...) kind of structure.

Now try to do the same with vectors and hashmaps. You can't. You need to create a concept of vectors-of-vectors and hashmaps-of-hashmaps with arbitrary amount of depth.

-----------

Example HTML to think about

<div>
<p> Start of a paragraph </p>
<p> Second paragraph <b> but some of it is bold</b> </p>
</div>

(div (p "Start of a paragraph") (p "Second paragraph" (b " but some of it is bold")))

Lisp itself is written in the form of Lisp-lists. The entirety of your programming code _IS_ a list, proving how truly universal this data-structure is.

You can't convert your C code into a vector or a hash-map. It just doesn't make sense. Meanwhile, all of lisp is a list, including the code.

For those that have grown up with smartphones, they probably have never learnt the skills required to navigate the world without one. I am guessing you subconsciously fell back on your childhood skills, where you needed to be mostly independent. What happens when you don’t have those skills to fall back on?

Sort of like being with your older relatives and seeing them easily fix an engine, manage without power, garden (edit: food and looks), or apply so many skills learned through necessity. Some of that is an independent attitude, especially prevalent in anyone with a rural background, which appears less prevalent with modern devices and helicopter parenting styles.

But it seems any "they" that is able to manufacture an "accident" of this scale would see $10 million on a good market day.

I'm not at all saying there wasn't abuse but I don't see any conspiracy when incompetence or laziness makes much more sense.
Data for Q3 will be released on Oct 27 (before the election). And current estimates for ~2.0% growth. Thus, the country will technically be "out of a recession" by election time.

FWIW, Asahi Linux is making nice progress on Apple Silicon support: https://asahilinux.org/2022/07/july-2022-release/

> If you suggest running a Linux VM through UTM on the M1 Macs, I will counter by stating that you can only run ARM ISOs…

I think that's incorrect. From the UTM home page: "On Intel Macs, x86/x64 operating system can be virtualized. In addition, lower performance emulation is available to run x86/x64 on Apple Silicon as well as ARM64 on Intel."
~6 months is still relatively new in my opinion.

That's unfortunate that they aren't giving you more tasking, especially if you're asking for more. But, without knowing too many details, it probably is just the normal ebb and flow.

My experience is that it can take several months to a year before I get really fully spun up on a new job. A lot of more senior people generally feel that it will take longer to hand off a task to someone new than to do it themselves. So it takes time for them to know and get comfortable with your skills and abilities.

There was a time when making people more connected was seen as an unqualified good thing. No, really. And it does still have some upsides, such as connecting people with rare interests or conditions, or enabling members of marginalized groups to support each other. But we're also hyper-aware nowadays of its downside - conspiracy theories, actual conspiracies, stalking and invasion of privacy. Maybe on balance it's still good, but it does plenty of harm as well.

Same thing with information. We've turned a problem of access into one of curation. Disinformation is a serious problem, no matter which side of any particular issue you think represents truth. Along with real information we get flooded with clickbait, manufactured outrage, influencer nonsense. Some of these cause far more psychological damage than their minimal information content could justify. Again, the good is there but there's also plenty of harm.

The solution most emphatically is not the kind of intellectual nihilism (misrepresented as curiosity) of the OP. That's just "believe whatever you want" nonsense wrapped in pretension. What's needed is better education about how to separate the wheat from the chaff - a skill most people quite demonstrably do not learn for themselves. It's like putting a first-time driver who can barely see over the wheel right onto the trickiest freeway interchange you can think of. By denying the value of education - by which I mean education guided by someone who understands the scientific principles of pedagogy - we're also denying people the very tools they need to survive. Once they can do that, then we can set them loose with some confidence that they will fill their heads with signal instead of noise.

A "straw man" is a variety of argument.

This makes no argument; it is satire -- a caricature -- as has been repeatedly pointed out; hence, it cannot be a straw man.

Now, this is not to say that it might not blamelessly strike you as unfunny; in this case, though, you may want to reword your comment as "not funny IMO".

I think part of the question has to be to consider, what do you want to hack?

If you're interested in hacking on your computer's operating system, then you will find more flexibility with GNU/Linux or FreeBSD than with MacOS.

But if you're interested in higher-level applications -- tools, programming languages, artificial intelligence, numerical computing, etc. -- then the practical difference becomes much less.

My interests fall more at the higher level of programs, and have been happily using MacOS for most of the past 20 years.
I'm so confused by this change. fgrep and egrep are already just shell scripts that are almost just like aliasing grep -E and grep -F. Why is the GNU team suddenly so worried about these shell scripts?

If the maintenance of these scripts is so hard. They could just deprecate them entirely. It's pretty unlikely that they would stop working or become insecure anytime soon. And sysadmins would just source in the aliases into their shell environments anyway....
fiction carries lots of falsehoods tho. If you actually 'learn' from fiction and try to apply it to real life, that's usually a bad thing. A silly example is Naruto running - it doesn't make you faster, or cooler, yet a few humans sincerely Naruto run in public. And if you can't learn from fiction, and it's possible to learn BAD things from it - what's it for? Fiction is guilty until proven innocent for me.
That further improves the analogy. Even though we all agree washing hands is important and saves lives, it still doesn't happen on occasion.
We've seen a few people leave for other jobs, and are still hiring. Still getting offers from recruiters.

I'm not sure why this is being downvoted? Dividing up memory statically at startup/compile time has some nice benefits described in the article, but it also makes the database less flexible to changing workload requirements. For example, if a workload wants to do a big hash join that needs 90% of the memory at time X and then a big data load that needs most of the memory in a completely different sub system at time Y - its nice to be able to dynamically shift the memory around to match the workload. Doing static up front allocations seems to block this from happening, and that is maybe a fine trade-off for TigerBeetleDB based on the types of workloads they're optimizing for, but its definitely a valid dis-advantage of their approach.
Congrats! 1.4M is good in this env.

Your talking more about your experience rather than what the OP is saying. The OP is saying that he is not immature and he is not content to browse the internet and that he is trying to be autonomous but since he is not the product owner, it is unlikely that he will find ways to make the product better.

Your message sounds like a spiel from a CTO given to his employee in order to motivate them and it's like you used this opportunity to practice a spiel that you have to give instead of looking at the OP's situation.

I'd order one instantly if they did a 16" version with a 16:10 aspect ratio. I stopped using external monitors with my laptop years ago because I found that most of the time, the items I had up on the second, third, and fourth screens were more distractions than anything else. I now use a 32" inch 1080p TV as a single screen with the laptop closed when docked (which is rarely the case lately since I had a triple disc fusion in May. I now migrate between my kitchen bar, dining room table, and couch with a folding table due to hurting if in the same position for too long)

Yeah. It seems to get overlooked a lot. Forth clicked for me easier than Lisp. It still requires you to build out a lot unless you build it on top of higher level languages.

Great username btw.
Gun ownership is baked into our founding documentation (The Constitution); as such, it's part of the very premise of our governmental foundation. All other laws, regulations, and everything else about our government is built from and traceable to The Constitution. As far as I know, only 2 other countries in the world have something similar in their Constitution: Mexico and Guatemala.

Countries that don't have that baked into their foundational documentation have an easier time actually putting regulations into place and enforcing them. Because the right to guns is in our charter, it makes regulation much more difficult to implement and enforce (not to mention, much more unpopular because to many folks it feels like a betrayal of the charter).

That's what makes the US different than most other countries in that regard.
As one Indian professor I don’t know said to a Russian-Mexican professor I do know while the latter was giving the former a tour on some unhappy parts of Mexico City: “You want to surprise me with poverty? Look, everyone here has shoes”.

Our company moved to San Francisco in late 90s to save money before IPO. The location was right near Tenderloin, the murder capital of the US. I walked through it from time to time. Nothing special, a city like a city. I remember thinking: how nice it is to walk through American streets - so less aggression in the air…

There was a huge homeless camp though near Civic Center. There was a homeless man sleeping near a back door to our office, he once saved a girl patronizing a local bar from rape. In Soviet Union these homeless would have been rounded up and moved to some rural location not near than 100 km to any big city. Some could have been criminally tried even, like “elitist” Soviet poet Brodsky who was tried and convicted for a lack of permanent job. “Elitist” who can be tried and convicted any time authorities do not like something he says? (I kinda worried that Americans do not feel that personal freedoms had much value, and are willing to trade them for some fashionable illusion).

But I can agree that there can be found some Americans who are materially worse than our family was. Still, calling us elitists - is a sign of laughable ignorance of the world at large.

If anyone out there is using environment variables currently, and is interested a quick path to plugging the leaks in their secrets management, check out EnvKey[1] (disclaimer: I'm the founder).

Because EnvKey integrates tightly with environment variables, no app code changes are needed to switch, so it only takes a minute or two to import/integrate a typical app.

EnvKey is designed to help avoid incidents exactly like the one that just hit Toyota, while staying out of your way and even making your life significantly easier as a developer by simplifying many aspects of config management.

Give it a look if you know you have some room for improvement in this area and are looking for an easy, secure, open source, end-to-end encrypted solution :)

How can such a thing possibly be non-partisan? The people running surely vote in the elections and thus care about the outcome, I don't see how they couldn't be partisan when their statements can have huge effects on the outcome.

Also, there is not 'the one' film look. There is still a lot of different films around and even new ones being released each year. I have made a list of films that are currently reasonable easy to obtain with links to example images:

I think for many people the question is not whether you could recreate the look with a digital camera. Instead you already get the look you chose by selecting your film baked into the image without having to do any post-processing.
Eh it's kitch at worse, it's a bit of history, maybe you had to be there, what's wrong with an artist being a poser, and are you trying to shame someone for having a "lowly" job?
One of my points is, nobody has to officially be a product owner to figure out things to do. Everyone should care about the product and can use their imagination to come up with tasks, or like I said, can just ask others.

If he can’t figure out how to be useful, that is also a sign of immaturity (at least in the workforce context), and also points to communication issues and incompetency.

There are many lisps that are not interpreted, but are instead compiled.

The beauty of the lisp language is that it doesn't care about interpreted vs compiled vs whatever. Its just the true elegance of "everything is a (lisp) list" (which is probably the wrong word. The truth of the matter is that "everything is a graph" and lisp-lists are really just a universal building block that can represent arbitrary graphs).

The important gadgets are:

1. Universal garbage collection (allowing you to ignore free() issues and simplify code)

2. Pointer to (two pointers). That is, car-and-cdr.

That's it. Everything else flows from these two things.

every organization is held back by the slowest adopter. If you advance too quickly compared to your colleges then you will likely leave because everyone else feels like they are trying to pull you back into their crap. Innovation is a depreciating asset. If you don't reward the people who make a quantum leap, they will leave, and all their progress will revert to the mean.

I bet someone made a security key because it was the right thing to do but they didn't have the controls in place to manage it in their build system and give another key to developers/engineers/etc. So someone else copied it for convivence rather than have to explain to every moron in the whole company how to use it to access the database or run their monolith tests or get access from the dude that no longer works there who was the "giver" of access keys.
It’s gonna take decades before we can judge if any of these mitigations did a single thing. The fact it is even debatable says the effect they had was negligible at best; definitely not worth their cost to society. If it was worth it, it shouldn’t require fancy research to prove, it should be completely obvious and enormous.

The fact we had plans zero clue if this stuff would work at all is reason enough to not do it. We subjected billions of people to a uncontrolled experiment. Worse it was without consent.

45% vs 55% of the remaining 74.

A 100% diff. You can argue whether that is fair, but it's a 10% difference.

Or 38% and 31% of the total $106.

So, when comparing the 70% number, we have to look at the actual comparative percentage, or 38%.

So, not 70%, but 38%.
> They buy the top of the line. And will build their own parts if it doesn't exist. It's not unusual for subway cars to run for millions of miles and last decades. The R32's were deployed in the 1930's and lasted until the early 2000's [0].
