Having distinct layouts for mobile devices can be a good idea.

Having the interface add/remove elements for this dynamically is (a) obviously not necessary, as my desktop doesn't suddenly turn into a phone while I am browsing, and (b) not a good idea.

It seems like a neat generalisation, but it really isn't.
> and if you need to point back to the object that owns you

That's not the interesting case; that is indeed easily addressed by "weak" pointers. What's interesting is the case of a spaghetti reference graph where none of the objects definitely "owns" any other, and even the choice of GC roots might be dynamic.
Assuming it has good functionality: it will have different bugs from the “other package”. So if someone finds a vulnerability in the other pkg your system won’t be vulnerable.

And/or you want specific functionality, like the lack of dynamic allocation.

Monoculture is a dangerous trap.
I was in a fraternity in college. Part of the pledging process was learning all kinds of information about the fraternity, its history and philosophy, etc. One of our "rituals" for pledges involved being put into a situation where you would be asked questions you didn't know the answers to. It was a high pressure thing, and since you'd been memorizing all this stuff and being tested on it, you _really_ wanted to be able to answer these questions.

The lesson, in short, was "if you don't know, say you don't know." Admitting you didn't know the answers was required to "pass" the ritual. (It wasn't actually possible to fail per se)

Many of the things we did with initiates were stupid or pointless, mostly just designed to put them through the ringer. But this one has really stuck with me as a valuable lesson. If you're missing some knowledge, just say you don't know.

It's a good quality!
Indeed, there are certainly good reasons to statically link programs, but this type of security issue is the complete opposite, it's a known drawback that you may accept in exchange for the other benefits of static linking
Well as you long as developers are being paid big money to rewrite things...

The software industry doesn't make a lot of sense.
What the author of this post calls an “idea” is actually a causal inference; and the ability to make accurate causal inferences is necessary for survival.

The world is a dynamic, dangerous, and unforgiving place. Being able to understand the underlying causes of certain events; and then predict them and intervene before they occur is very beneficial for survival. It’s why people have been trying to figure out how the universe works for all of history.

Now we can talk about the appropriate amount of confidence one should have in their causal inferences; but saying “causal inferences bad” is hyperbole and not very useful or informative.
I'm no enthusiast for nothing (don't tell my wife! :-).
I find the authors approach very convincing, and his self-praising very annoying.
The 10 levels of each exercise allows a comfortable entry for everybody.
Calisthenics in addition is very cheap.

I'm training for 3 weeks, on level 1 to 6, depending on the exercise, and I feel a lot fitter and happier.

I made my own training plan, traing just every second day.

I'm old, so progression ist not fast, but I have no interest in that. If I'm on level 10 in every exercise in 10 years, I will be very happy.
What I was saying is that the basic PDP-11 as original designed, is a pure 16-bit machine with no 32-bit capabilities. The Unix C and other compilers used the middle-endian format for 32-bit integers largely as an artificial choice to be compatible with its FPU, as middle-endian was FPU's native long integer format. But the FPU was only a later hardware extension, and was not an inherent part of the basic system, and it's not enforced by the basic PDP-11 insturction set. It's entirely possible to modify the UNIX C compiler to store long integers in little endian.
That sounds bad. Granted, I don't keep up with the news that much, but what I do see (in Germany) is mostly stories on the "I won't buy that car I've been wanting to"-level, absolute poverty is rarely shown (unless with an upbeat story about e.g. enterprising metal collectors). While Erdogan certainly isn't praised, the chilling effects and the expanding authoritarianism are barely mentioned.

Fingers crossed that the next elections will bring some change.
I ran into the same problem with a newer Sun model (Ultra 10.) I looked up the chip on ebay and almost ordered one, but wasn't in the mood for another project I'm going to lose interest in after a week. The drive was also incredibly loud on startup, so I'm concerned it may also be dead. (The last time I booted it was probably 2005, running Solaris 8!)

They are decreasing by a factor of 200, which means 1/200 of the starting amount.

English is not my native language so I was a bit confused by "200 times less", which I (wrongly) imagined to mean starting amount (x) minus 200x, getting to -199x, which didn't make sense. Math in speech is a tricky thing.

Not just advice, but a series of events, some books I read and a change in situation:

1: In my early 20s, I worked as a junior sysadmin during the mid 90s. My manager sent me to a interpersonal skills course after telling me that people thought I was basically a jerk. That shocked me because of course who thinks that about themselves? But I reacted by resolving to be nicer to people, and the course I took introduced me to thinking about how others perceive me and how their inner worlds are vastly different to my own. As an introverted and neglected child, I hadn't been taught many lessons that I needed to learn. I grew up long before social media, so I escaped its toxic influence.

You need people who will call you out and tell you to improve, and more importantly teach you how to improve.

2: I moved out and escaped my mother and her stifling negativity. By striking out on my own, however uncomfortable I was, made me grow. This one isn't very easy these days, I was privileged to live in a time where it was pretty easy compared to today. Even if they love you, your parents/guardians/friends/hometown/job may be subconsciously holding you back.

You have to grow beyond your childhood.

3: After being told I lacked interpersonal skills, I got interested in just what those skills were. I read a lot of books on the subject, but these stood out to me: Emotional Intelligence by Daniel Goleman, How to Practice by The Dalai Lama, and Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl. You have to find your own lessons from these books, but what I took away from them was that you can choose your reaction to situations, that you're often controlled by your amygdala's fight/flight/fuck/food reactions and you have to be able to recognize that and act accordingly.

You have to be aware of why you think and feel things, and that you can control your reactions to those things.

4: I spent time at parties, going out to the pub, having fun with people in real life. Just as it takes a village to raise a child, so it takes a party to raise an adult.

Learning to be an adult is best taught by being physically around other adults.

5: Knowing that I wanted to be a good person, to try to treat other people with respect. Helping people without the expectation of anything in return is a wonderful feeling that I deeply enjoy. This leads into all sorts of things, like leadership is serving others, not controlling them. That being cut off on a road is just something that happens.

Treat others with kindness.

6: Learning that everyone else in the world has their own complex set of wants and needs, that most people are just trying to live their lives with a minimum of fuss. That you yourself are just one of billions doing just the same as everyone else.

You are not the main character.

Those situations, books, changes all set me on a path that I'm still working at today 25 years later. I was recently described by some coworkers as Ihsan, previously I've been referred to as a Mensch. Those moments make life precious to me :)
I don't think Jeff had to take out loans to buy Washington post. That changes a lot.

> So what is the real problem with inflation? Is it the economic inequality it brings to those who have to live on fixed income?

1) Humans aren't perfectly rational. A lot of people who don't understand exponential curves will end up going broke - like people who earned money and "saved" it by storing it in a bank account. To put it bluntly, a bunch of old people will be left destitute despite working hard and saving.

This also affects wage earners who aren't keen negotiators. They'll quickly end up with a below-market wage and might not realise what is going on.

2) Price signals take time to propagate because the economic hive mind doesn't move at the speed of light, it moves at the speed of takes-a-few-months. There will be wild mis-allocations as people work out how to measure goods in something reliable that isn't dollars.

3) The new money has to start somewhere, that group will get a massive advantage in allocating resources. They probably aren't good at it, because if they were they wouldn't need free money, so they'll cause massive waste.

4) Triggering high inflation is bad strategy for making things better, so if it is being used the people running the show are probably not the most competent of chaps. They'll be making a lot of mistakes. Eg, usually a high-inflation strategy will get coupled with other tricks to destroy savings - think gold confiscation or wealth taxes - as people try to respond sanely to money printing. If you run the numbers on how capital gains tax interacts with inflation you have a "hey! wait a minute..." moment if you like saving money.
It has been the case on elf/linux, and for a while now, csgo has been running flawlessly for a while on vulkan.
The point went past you. The core of the message is that you should not limit yourself to those you see around you in your small country, and keep a small country mentality. It's telling young people they are as good as anyone else, and that they should aim as high as someone that grew up say in the US and went to Stanford, because they are no better than you. I thought it was a great message.
The idea/hope/point of the embargo is not keep the issue secret forever, but to keep it secret long enough to allow fixes to be released and that most people can update when/before the details become widely known.

I wouldn't be surprised if there's a "proper announcement" of the actual issue shortly after patches are widely available.

Physics arguably prevents this from being successful for journeys of any meaningful distance and carrying any meaningful payloads. PBS spacetime did a good video about this recently:

A more accurate thing to say is that turbines need to be heated in cold weather, which has an effect on their cost and operation efficiency.

In places where a deep freeze is unlikely it’s usually better just to shut them down in extremely cold weather.
What you have been told by mainstream media and society about the topics of romantic relationships, sexual attraction and the like between male and female humans is mostly a lie.

Most of Europe requires you to put up several thousand in starting capital for an LLC equivalent entity. 7.5k for where I live, and Germany would be highest I think at over 12k. It's an extreme barrier for entry to say the least.

Not sure what the requirements are for a non-profit though, but I assume it's the same with just a different tax classification.

I've read the Trick and found it very derivate. Most interesting, but he's not discovering a new element either.

I'd wager that anyone with an average knowledge of history and a basic understanding of how social systems work, independently discovers "the trick" rather quickly and thankfully with much less cringy imaginery.

I spent a few minutes checking my cmdb for openssl3, and have allocated 30 minutes on Tuesday to upgrade the few machines that have openssl3.

When corporate infosec starts to panic, probably about Thursday based on the jndi issue, I'll be able to point them to our log which shows how it was handled.
I’m no expert on this but it certainly seems conceivable that a 30% cost reduction can be the difference between “not profitable” and “profitable”.

In regards to the efficiency argument against hydrogen: Sometimes that is an issue but sometimes it’s just not an issue at all. Fossil fuel efficiency is abominable but they’re still used.
There are also claims, which are not only wrong, but in a dangerous way:

> They lack empathy and are usually appalling teachers

No, autism is not related whatsoever to the lack of empathy! It may be associated with the lack of communication which can be perceived as the lack of empathy - but these are two different things.

The remark about "appalling teachers" is also extraneous. Some are. Some aren't. But it reinforces harmful stereotypes. (I hope) this author won't write such a blanket statement regarding gender, nationality, or ethnicity without strong backing. He shouldn't write on neurodivergence, either.

80% isn't amazing, it's not ideal for an electric car, but it's not terrible either. IMO, to switch to 100% renewables, we're going to need grid-scale batteries, but it might also help if we had a mechanism to achieve seasonal energy storage.

I know hydrogen is hard to store, so I think it would be best if we could somehow use electricity to produce ethanol directly from CO2 and water (is that feasible with reasonable efficiency?). But just imagine if we could, in the summer, we could turn excess solar power into ethanol and stockpile it for the winter. We could also use that fuel to power jet airplanes and cargo ships without using any fossil fuels.
Please don't learn the tools first before learning the fundamentals of the Cloud platform. Else you'll never understand what the resources you're putting together will do and how they interact with each other.
I’m sure all of that extra capacity has been wasted by now on Bitcoin mining.

Edit: Let me do some math instead of guessing.

> The Texas grid operator expects crypto miners to increase electricity demand by up to 6 gigawatts by mid-2023

> Texas leads the U.S. in wind installations, with 30.46 GW, and it’s second in solar energy, with 8.6 GW as of August.

Still. Not great. Almost every solar panel in Texas going to mine something with seven transactions per second. There is no excuse for this amount of power wasted since Ethereum moved to proof of stake. https://ultrasound.money/.

I too thought about becoming a "code shrink".

I helped my department found a "Mathematics of Finance" masters program, teaching numerical methods for the first three years. Three guys were trying to combine all their courses for an omnibus project that would get them dream jobs. They were coding a never-implemented research paper in C++. Sensing my finance background was thin but I was good at programming, they arrived at my office hours to describe their failing code.

I didn't understand a word they were saying. Keeping a poker face, I was sinking into depression. "They pay so much to be here, and I don't know what I'm doing. I've got to think of something to say so they'll just leave. Happy, but please, just leave."

Then I heard a catch in their voices, as they described inserting a fractional time step between program phases. I jumped up, "No! You don't have to do that!" I proposed an alternative, asserting this could be their bug.

I got an effusive email message that evening, and they came back two more days. Now I knew the drill.

Ever notice how one is aware of cooking mistakes as one makes them? Code is the same way, one often hears the mistake as one makes it. And it's easier to hear in others.
I do accept the fluctuations, but the risk and magnitude are different.
Since they tag 1965 as the start, the miss the largest change in US monitory policy. Surprised no one mentions it.

Before 1965, 10, 25 and 50 cent coins made in the US was 90% silver. In 1965 all coins changed to a base metal. So that alone caused prices to rise in the 1960s to early 70s, and all silver coins disappeared from circulation.

As others mention, 1973 and the again 1978(?) the oil shock happened, which put inflation on steroids.
Only if the house was equipped with a battery, which is not common. There’s a NEC requirement that solar power stops when the grid goes down to prevent power islands. The only way around this is a battery.

Also lithium batteries can’t charge in sub-freezing temperatures without permanent damage.
It's very likely not for games, but for porting other types of 3D applications.

Absolutely wonderful. Great explanation, thank you so so much. Months Im asking questions around.

For a 60 min travel between earth and ship, there is a point where ship reaches earth reading ship:60 and earth:15. And there is a point where earth sees the ship land and read earth:60 and ship:15 resp. Those are not the same points.

So when you travel at high speed in a frame A, you're kind of gonna "experience a different story" than objects traveling in low speed in frame A relative to each other.

Edit: do we know an object with a mass thats traveling at high speed in our frame?

Edit2: Oh but the universe is expanding so we do actually.

When it is overcast in Texas residential solar doesn't really generate an appreciable amounts of power. It is grid tie so despite what many people think they don't have any power in the case of the grid going out. I know of a few folks on co-op power that are allowed to have Tesla powerwall (or similar). But in that case they can't sell power back into the grid economically.

The reason why the 2021 freeze was so intense is that during the day we didn't get sun, we had cloud cover 24 hours a day. It's entirely normal to get freezing nights in most of Texas. But by 10 AM stuff is back up to a temperature that it's 40 F or so because of the sun. When we get days upon days or freezing nights followed by even just overcast weather, that is when it becomes an issue.
How could you!

yes, I know. I, too, have a 401(k) that I will not see any payout from because people somehow find ways to lower the return of my 401(k) every single year, no matter what the stock market does overall.

I've become somewhat convinced of "it takes a village to raise a child" thinking on the back of similar observations. It seems to me that it's a horrible thing to do to a child to force them to learn and absorb from only one to two people. Variations between people, even between parents and their children, and between social and economic needs, even over single generational spans, are too great, especially in the modern age. Which is to say nothing of when a child's parents just happen to be broken people. It feels like a travesty that children, such as yourself in your story, aren't given the opportunity to get different perspectives on how to live and be and to benefit from multiple guiding hands.
