I'm partial to compiler design. there's just something magical about bringing a new language to life, and liberating to use very different paradigms (e.g. symbolic, weird type systems, declarative.)

also, accessibility tools. largely pragmatic, since my limbs are slowly betraying me, but I genuinely enjoy the bootstrapping aspect, and the empowerment.
Curious about the downvote. The EOM market is a very different beast, in that OEM market doesn't suffer from the "reviewer peer pressure". If a million youtube reviewers go "this 4080 is a 4070, wtf??" including people like "Steve from Gamer's Nexus", Jason Langevin, and Linus Sebastian, you change your tune (even if you don't admit that's why) because consumers pay attention to this people. But in the OEM market, that pressure literally doesn't exist. Intel can call things whatever they like on the OEM side, but unless that affects the enthusiast OEM market (which is, let's be real: extremely small) no one is ever going to call it out, let alone care.
Abortion can only seen as a personal decision if you don't consider it murder. From the view point that "life" starts at conception, it cannot be seen as a personal decision. Thus, pro-abortion seeks to change the minds of people such that "life" does not start at conception.
Most self-driving is about avoiding collissions, and signalling intent, especially when streets are narrow and there's merging or shared use. The physics of cars, people, bikes and kids around roads are well understood (acceleration, velocity). This can be simulated, and a game engine can generate data for virtual sensors to be trained. There's no reason to require time on the road.
All operating systems have the unicode database saved somewhere. There should just be a standard way of accessing it. Just like filesystem.

Edit; that is; it does not have to be linked in the standard lib. Can be a data file somewhere, or a a shared lib.
I visited a small town recently - Ithaca. As someone from San Francisco I was shocked by the amount of LGBTQ and BLM imagery.

Feels like everyone in SF kinda takes it as the default position, no need to show off.
My read on downvotes is that they exist for managing signal/noise, basically for avoiding comments that are better off not read or engaged with. If a reader has to get through a noisy comment to get to a good comment that only exists because of the noise, is it worth it for the platform to try to lead them to it? And that's a pretty rare case anyway. So yeah, pretty hard to even specify a solution.

Great, thanks! Looking forward to it.
As much as I think that comment was hyperbole, I do hope in future all public places are well ventilated. I took my co2 meter around to trains and planes and there’s so much to improve (esp when boarding).

There’s so much effort put to clean surfaces… wonder how does it compare vs air-born infections. For covid it took so long for hand cleaning mania to go away and masks to come back.
Wonder if any of the space telescopes including JWST have swung around to observe this burst.

Biden dropped a real hammer on Chinese chipmaking. People are just walking out from fabs all around China and fabs are closing without services and support.

A one-year Temporary General License softens the blow for foreign companies but just delays the catastrophe for Chinese chip manufacturing. Besides removing US citizens, green card holders, and people living in the US from working or serving Chinese chipmakers, exports are restricted. Everything that includes the US made tools and software for design and manufacturing, and machinery is cut out.

Thresholds:

• Logic chips with non-planar transistor architectures (I.e., FinFET or GAAFET) of
16nm or 14nm, or below;

• DRAM memory chips of 18nm half-pitch or less;

• NAND flash memory chips with 128 layers or more.
This is mostly a strawman, since I don't see almost anyone arguing for complete equality of pay, status or position, merely that a handful of people shouldn't be able to accumulate the wealth of small nations on the back of others.

In countries in Europe, and places in Asia, there are plenty of examples where there is less inequality and the students perform better.
Incognito doesn't mean invisible. If I put on a fake mustache and walk around the grocery store, they can still see me. The store manager can still say "hey, the mustache guy is spending a lot of time looking at the lettuce." And yet, I'm incognito. They don't know who I am.
Mad Men argument doesn't hold up either, Michael from Vsauce did a recent video on exactly this, we simply perceive images of young people in the past decades as older than they are https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjqt8T3tJIE
Sounds to me like we should eliminate the idea that high performance and achievement should be rewarded with wealth or being raised above others. Perhaps it would be better if people learned from a young age that achievement is its own reward? Are we such animals that we need special treats in order to do the right thing? I think it’s a childish attitude that if you don’t get more cookies than someone else that you’ll throw down your work and have a tantrum.
Plasma temperature is high but total heat is similar to other power plants. The atoms are moving fast but there aren't many of them. So basically, surround the plasma with a neutron-absorbing coolant and you're good. CFS uses molten FLiBe salt, and some others use a molten mix of lead and lithium. Then you run water pipes through that.

The counterargument to this is that since humans reach acceptable safety levels with vision only, it must be possible to do self driving with vision only. That said, augmenting vision with other methods does seem like a no brainer for better performance.
It's a short bash script calling out to things like btrfs, cgcreate, cgexec, nsenter, etc. All of which get updates regularly.
Your example and conclusion aren’t a good match IMO. Choosing a restrictive language is not something you can easily pivot from later when you need more flexibility. It’s a huge commitment, so making the right choice for the future is not premature.
That’s precisely why the post you replied to said heat pumps, not resistive heating.

I'm told I used to eat dirt (sand, soil, etc) as a child, which upset my brother. It seems to have worked out for me - I have no allergies and can digest anything and everything, in contrast with people who proclaim that carbs make them bloat, they get tired after eating sugar, etc.

I still get a good dose of dirt from frequent bike rides on dusty logging roads, where the occasional passing car stirs up dust clouds that end up in my mouth and nose.
This. But it strenghtens the arguments that programming environments should just come with some sort of support for the most common encoding forms.

> That is not to say that formal verification takes 5x the work. You also have to write your source-code in such a way that it is ammenable to being formally verified, which makes it more difficult to write, and limits what you can reasonably do.

Also hire significantly more skilled people. Write formal verification on job requirement and the pool of candidates will shrink massively.

Explains why it is so rare really. "Spend 5-10x on developers to have some bugs not happen" is not a great sell.
The recent drama has been resolved. For a week or so there was some uncertainty whether all new Bitwig devices would be part of the Studio edition and therefore covered with the cost of the update plan. Bitwig (the company) put out a paid add-on with new devices and announced that there would be other paid add-ons in the future. That caused a lot of negative responses in the community. After a week the Bitwig company apologized, made the add-on part of the regular Studio distribution and ensured that in the future all new devices would be part of the Studio - effectively no additional paid add-ons.

The thing with the licensing server has been fixed. I tried that by turning off my router. No session closing and no data loss whatsoever.
Amazing. This reminds me of Cross Country Canada, which I played to death at school.

That example is just one that sticks out in my mind particularly brightly. I'm a mathematician, and I have a particular distrust of people who name things after themselves, in large part because of the culture -- people who cite your work might choose to name it after you in recognition of your/its significance. And I still dislike that, because for example, Noether's Theorem isn't a unique identifier. The Trapezoid Rule, on the other hand, is named perfectly.

There's some interesting discussion on stackexchange at [1], the comment I link to reports on some investigation they did. Apparently, the Tai of Tai's Model misinterpreted other people's use of the trapezoid rule, found that misinterpreted version to be faulty, re-invented it, and named it after herself. One assumes that it was an honest mistake, but it's a damned shame that it didn't get caught in review.

I feel your pain. Last week I just gave up and wrote my UTF-8 to UTF-32 conversion routine. It took me far less to do that than I spent looking for a standard solution.
One thing I don’t understand about fusion is the mechanics of gain factors. If we can achieve a fusion reactor with a very small gain factor of say 1.01, is that sufficient to kick off an energy revolution, or do we need something more extreme like 10x or 100x?

I suppose it boils down to what the “saturation threshold” of nuclear reactors is, where you can’t pump more energy in without breaking the thing.

In any case, what are the benchmarks that engineers are shooting for?
I hear you, but YouTube takes 6+ seconds for me to load and it does not seem to hold them back. For most, not all, optimizing page load time is time probably best spent elsewhere. This is is no way to impugn htmx, because with htmx you seem to kill many birds with one stone.

There's precedent for this, too: time zones! Time zone data can change over time, and as such it's typically stored in system files and loaded at runtime, rather than being embedded in executables.

Locales have some similar behavior as well.
"And, to be clear, the Incognito Mode new window has always made this clear."

But the spy icon and the name hint something different. I mean we technical folks do understand the words and explanations with one short glance, because we know a browser cannot make us anonymous nor invisible just like that.

But common folks who understand computers as dark magic not so much.

So it is somewhat missleading, even though I do not see a evil intention here, rather misscommunication.
I'm understanding this right now, from currently having a headache.
Does Scala have that?
Except of course in this case that's not what you'd be doing. You'd be installing Docker to help beta-test a program, not "just build a program". If you want to help an open source project succeed, having to install Docker is kind of a trivial cost. If you want to use this... probably not a good idea, it's extremely not ready for general use =)
Iirc you can ssh-forward a port to a remote localhost-only web server and visit local http://localhost:port to use it. Something like `ssh -forward 2345:2345 -exec “http-server -p 2345 /path/to/mysite” myhost`, but with real options instead of my pseudo ssh cli.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not fond of the modern web either, but setting up something like a chat-like shell in a browser-over-ssh sounds like a pretty straightforward and lightweight job.

Edit: correct args would be

ssh -L 2345:server:2345 user@server '/home/user/bin/my-web-shell -p 2345'
Yes, the Nazi state existed for the Volk[1], the Nazis' economic policy was that of privatization[2] and Social Darwinism. Universal healthcare as implemented in Germany in the 1800's covered more groups than what the Nazis considered the Volk, depending on the implementation, free universal healthcare flies in the face of economic privatization, and Nazis' Social Darwinism said that the weak who can't take care of themselves should be culled.

A library that only extracts code points will do more damage than not having one at all. If you have to decode Unicode you presumably want to parse it some of the time. Not supporting the needs for string processing with multi-point graphemes leads to broken Unicode "support" that doesn't actually work with all valid Unicode.
> You quote my referring to what a reasonable person would do, and then seem to be offering a rebuttal by saying that it's about what a reasonable person would do …?

Yes. What's confusing about that?

They didn't say it was wrong to talk about a reasonable person, or anything like that.

But you were applying the reasonable person test incorrectly. You don't make a pile of reasonable people, and then check if any of them are confused. You look at what a single median reasonable person would think, basically.

That means a lot less as a postscript than as the starting point. Whereas the framing of your values as a "gift" doesn't absolutely imply they're correct, but does imply they're somehow a good thing.

There's a phrase we use for saying the right words about an important idea but not actually incorporating it into your methods: "lip service".

American "modern country" isn't right wing propaganda. It's something far more cancerous. It's insufferable. They sing about being rednecks drinking beer and fucking hookers. It's absolute dog shit. Randy Prozac mocks it in his (NSFW + NSFL) single "Budweiser, Me And Homeland Security"

> One misconception is that languages like J are in the same caliber as Brain F**k and other esoteric or golfing languages which are mostly for recreational programming. Languages like J however were designed to be a replacement to traditional maths notation - an interface for thinking or a tool of thought as their inventor Kenneth E. Iverson called them in his Turing Award lecture.

Does it actually succeed though? The author aims to show how J helps conceptualize a random walk, but from where I stand, it just makes everything look like a regex or something. I don't see what the insight's supposed to be.

Everybody knows you can do a random walk by simulating an array of random 1 and -1 values and doing a cumsum on that array. You can do that in MATLAB or Python or R too, and it's about as short and more readable.
Horizon can import KiCAD footprints IIRC.
Listing template dependencies as event names that can change underlying data seems very brittle (hx-trigger for favorite articles). You would need at least integration tests to get some confidence! Can’t we infer used state in template and setup triggers for developer? LiveView gives better DX in this case.
Yeah, NAT is fairly secure in the sense that it blocks incoming connections... you're kind of a security nut if you lock down all ports. Anyone outgoing will just stream over 80 or 443 anyways, port based firewalls are pretty antiquated. You can't really lock down port 80 and still have a functional network unless you whitelist every device you connect.
I think "being able to describe exhaustively the conditions under which something is conscious" is sometimes called the "pretty hard problem of consciousness", as opposed to the hard problem? (Also considered unsolved though)

Obesity: A Chemical Hunger (2021)
The more far flung reaches are are served well by traditional vehicles and the people are trained to use driving machines since most of the workers are agricultural. The city centers and suburbs are a big enough win even if it isn't as magical as taking a self driving trip from a small cottage in northern Vermont all the way to a campsite up in Big Sur.

I'd like some more context on this. Especially since it is used in many security-critical contexts currently.
Potassium salt is sometimes sold as sodium substitute. Some people might get great results and think of turning the dial to 11. The problem is the body's nervous system needs a fairly narrow band ratio of potassium and sodium ions for correct function. So it is a risk, even if small.
Goldfish Social – Free open source alternative for Vine / TikTok (alpha)
Back in high school we did one of those playathon things where a bunch of us band kids basically held a 12-hour jam session as a fundraiser for something or other. About 11 of those 12 hours were cumulatively spent riffing on "Superstition". I was on trombone, and spent most of those hours improvising solos in a desperate yet futile attempt to make it not horrifically repetitive.

I still absolutely loathe that song to this day.

They operate in completely different ways, but depending on what you're looking for, you might want to look at Suricata, especially for protocol decoding (a good chunk, especially the decoders, are built on the AMAZING `nom` parser-combinator crate in Rust and super extensible if you want to build your own decoders)

A zero-ruleset (if you're not looking at actual pattern-matching or IDS functionality) deployment of Suri is surprisingly lightweight and performant, and it's also easy to roll rules for your custom decoders as well if you want to actually alert on certain things instead of just doing straight decoding and dumping to JSON
> In the short run, technological progress is much slower than anyone hopes, but in the long run it is much faster than anyone expects.

But it doesn't happen in predictable ways. A particular area of technology hits a wall and plateaus all the time, for myriad reasons. In 1950, you might have thought that by 2022 we would have done a lot more with nuclear technology or supersonic airplanes than we have.
I wouldn’t in a slightest.
