Yeah - I think from your explanation I can only deduce that you don't know the actual definition and concept of pure functional programming. Note that the term "functional programming" has been watered down over time and now pretty much means "use .map and .filter instead of a loop" etc. Historically the meaning was different though, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purely_functional_programming

With pure functional programming you essentially treat IO-effects as a first class concept and make them explicit in your code. You never "execute" IO directly but compose small "blueprints" for doing IO into bigger blueprints and so on until you end up with one big blueprint which is your application. You then pass it to the runtime ("main() { ...; return bigBlueprint; }") and then it gets executed.

In other words, pure functional programming treats IO as more important compared to "regular programming" and without any IO there would be no need to even do so. But without any IO, a program wouldn't have any meaning, because you want at least expose the result of a computation to the outside world.
> But you won't have the option of cash, the Fed getting into digital currency implies an all-digital future.

That is quite a leap in logic, or "implies" is doing a lot of work in that sentence.
I think it's not great, especially because psychosis, bipolar, personality disorders, etc. collectively make up enough of the population that almost certainly one is speaking it in the company of people who would be called "crazy". But also it's in way more ubiquitous use than "retarded" so its a far bigger hill to climb and probably not worth the teeth-pulling until we can at least stop with OCD, ADHD-squirrel, and other jokes first.
Reduce the hours in the day.

Most people structure their days based on what they want to accomplish (goal driven), rather than how to spread out work evenly across a fixed number of hours (time driven). So if someone knows that they are expected to deliver task A + B in one day then they will do it. If they have a 4 hour work day they'll do it in 4 hours and then happily clock off. If they have to do it in an 8 hour work day they'll do it in 4 hours and then waste time for the remaining 4 hours.

I don’t think that would happen if there is actually a job to be done.
>I'm sure the police are going to love that one. "License and registration?" "Sorry officer, they're in the glove compartment and when I tap the button it just makes an angry grinding noise."

The only reason they ask for your papers is because it's an easy ticket to write or pretext for fishing if you don't have them. They look up your info based on the plate regardless.
It's a desktop, not a server, you should only ever install latest packages instead of relying on fixed versions. If you need a specific version, install a version manager. I use brew with everything latest, except for node which I manage with nvm and it works great.

Brew is actually my favorite package manager for this reason.
The only thing that is making me not switch to Mem is lack of tables. I really heavily on tables for notes. And that has not yet been implemented in Mem.
Is that fact or wishful thinking? It’s hard for me to believe that nobody is going to want to work for the most prominent business man of the decade.
Work? Probably not, I think it's for people who are very dialed in on the mission.
Buy stock in his conpanies though? That's a very different story. If and when spaceX goes public (probably far in the future) I believe it will be the most valued stock in history.
Maybe they should focus on fixing bugs.
The editor has significant problems. It happened to me that I literally couldn't copy stuff. I had to download as txt and then copy.
Or sometimes you're trying to select a sentence and it selects the whole block, and all these annoying little quirks that I find incredibly enraging.
>Do they regularly publish independently-verifiable audits?

Which exchange does this? I'm not talking about finding some mom and pop accounting shop to issue a 1 page report stating they checked on a certain date and the reserves were there, where the majority of the 1 page was a disclaimer stating that this wasn't technically an "audit" and should not be relied upon as such.
Good. America needs to stop trying to make the existing rich richer by artificially propping up house prices, and therefore preventing those who want to build wealth from being able to buy a house and start doing so.

This would not be a problem if the entire US economy, right from nearly every tax incentive, to the schools you send your kids to, to the opportunities that are available to you and your kids, etc. wasn't based on home ownership and making home ownership the primary source of building starting wealth.

The other alternative is to find a high paying FAANG or finance job and/or starting a company. The former is available to a select few, and the latter also is built on owning a home, because many people who start companies will often find funding to start, maintain, and/or grow their company by taking loans against their homes.

Because, once again, the entire US system is built around rewarding home ownership, and so it's the only source of wealth building available to the vast majority of Americans.
If home prices go down, what happens to the incentives to build new houses. Will building to sell remain a good use of money?
My read on that thread was that Elon was the one who took being corrected personally. The guy just pointed out that what Elon said about "1000 requests" was not correct nor was it the root cause of the performance issue Elon mentioned. If he had just said "sorry the Android app is slow, we're working on it", I suspect no one would have replied to him.
Vandalism? More like willful self-harm!
I thought about it, but I felt actual responses would be better than a thumbs up/down thing.
You have been fingerprinted. Look into digital fingerprint. Google and Reddit work together to guarantee you are censored.

Nowadays. The comments on Reddit are GPT3. No real users comment anymore. Next year. This will be an issue. Now, it’s just a experiment Reddit is running before IPO.
> So no, those guys are smart dudes.

Von Braun was a very smart dude but he was making the Nazi salute and fawning over Hitler all the times.

When he moved to the US he was fawning over Eisenhower all the times.

Similarly this Friedman guy has 4 years worth of videos in which he fawns over Putin.

Technical abilities and critical thinking in the social realm are 2 very different sets of competences. It's very rare to find somebody who is extremely technically gifted and is also able to realize that the leader of a big organization is not a god but a regular guy like anybody else who happened to be positioned in the right spot to ride the wave of social consensus.
WSL has been really amazing for our team. All our devs are on Windows systems and are staging & production are on Linux. Having a system identical to what's going to be in prod has saved us many hours of effort.

Yep, if I could subscribe to the old Evernote then I would, but it's long gone.
And combine that with rainbow tables where appropriate :)
Sounds like our "affordable housing" problems are solved then...
Got it.

Very much like the idea to check the code coverage to find out which tests you should run. First time I saw it. Is it common in other tools?
This is what happens when you optimize for a certain metric only. Yeah you might have someone's who's writing tons of high quality code, but if this code is just a duplication of another project or there is no business use for it, then it you probably would have been better off not writing it in the first place.

People talk about food waste, but how much code is wasted?
GitHub for my code...

Everything else I've basically given up on. It's on my device, and when that goes, so goes the data.

I have enough leverage in any conversation, that bosses don't have much choice other than to entertain the idea. I use this "leverage" to build further reputation as the person who only talks in the benefit of others.

But Elon has this "my way or highway" blinded racehorse mentality. He overruns people if he doesn't get his way.
I would imagine any two computers at Tesla have a very good chance of having identical normal.dot, and font can be determined by looking at the letter. For a letter, who is using tabs for anything but the start of paragraphs? Even if it's not perfect, it's unlikely to change the size of a word document (which is likely <25 kB to begin with) by a full kilobyte.

Basically all it would tell you is the number of word documents with approximately the same amount of text were printed, plus or minus about a paragraph. Letters aren't frequently printed and the contents of the leak would almost certainly limit the number of suspects to a small handful of people. It's not hard at all to believe that in a group of ~50 people and a time window of ~1 week you might only have one even close match.
~10 years ago I discovered Google doing steganography and their e-mails by accident. I was searching gmail for an e-mail message using a word I knew was definitely in the message but it was not being found. Eventually I found the e-mail and confirmed the word was definitely there. Ctrl+F and type the word, it's not found. Turned out there were random Cyrillic characters mixed through the message. Confirmed with others their messages similarly had random Cyrillic characters, but different from my own.

Always found it ironic that their own products (gmail/chrome) gave away their attempts at steganography.
If it were me, I probably wouldn't have replied. I read later this was a Staff engineer working on optimizing the android app iirc. He was more blunt than I'd be comfortable with speaking to my CEO, but Elon seems to be someone who likes to get to the point so I was kind of surprised he reacted this way.
One lingering question I have regarding linguistics is how did languages build complex grammars to then see their grammars simplify over time?

Do we in modern times see languages with simple grammars develop complex grammars over time?
I thought the big advantage of LoRa was no legal permit necessary. It operates on unlicensed scientific/industrial radio bands.

There are requirements --- it is intended for short burst type communication. But if you stay within the guidelines, no license is needed --- as far as I know.
This is not the case. Often the "politically correct" version is not actually more correct, but is replacing some common phrase that is declared obnoxious by some very small unrepresentative minority of people who coincidentally make their living as activists.

Yes you can be houseless but not homeless, but you can also be homeless and not houseless. It's an utterly stupid distinction predicated on an intentionally incorrect, close, and literal minded reading of the term, done for political reasons.
For those wondering: cmd-shift-5 is the shortcut the very configurable Screenshot app, which allows you to do things like save to folder, clipboard, or straight to mail and more.
Regardless of "wokism," it might stop meaning from being transmitted to those who do find the term problematic.

Absurd or ridiculous both capture the same meaning without losing precision. And at this point, we can look at it more as a function of deprecated terminology - people don't listen to you and think you're a bad person if you use said terminology, they just think you're old.

However, to be clear, this is off-topic for the article at hand.
By hardcore he really means "being willing to work in a toxic environment".

uuh this is how regular school is in Sweden...

You have a class of people in grade 1-6, then grade 7-9 is a new school, then high school is a new school.

I just got the reference. Bending spoons, doing the impossible, like in the matrix. At least the name makes sense now.
I was using Evernote extensively back in 2008. It was a real tossup between Evernote and OneNote (which at the time wasn't cloud based and required syncing the files).

Then Evernote proceeded to cease all feature development on the main app. They where releasing food apps while the main product grew stale. Instead of making Evernote incredibly powerful, they didn't touch it and people left any of the dozen competitors that exist today.
If true, that's technically fascinating and clever.

It's also the CEO of the company taking time from the shareholders to hunt down and hurt someone.

Don't work for people like this.
Man, I remember running this and ophcrack as a 15 year old to recover the windows login password for my mom's computer after she forgot it. She was convinced her password had just stopped working, until I recovered it and she realized that she just forgot what it was lol.
Bullshit. I can go to a second-hand bookstore in Spain right now and buy tons of volumes from the 70 and 80's.

The math book I'm reading right now it's from the 70's.
Isn't this old? They release WSL 2 already a couple of years ago and it's works great!
Obviously homebuying is a subjective experience.
Buying a home was a positive lifechanging experience for me.

I feel like it was a prerequisite living the life I wanted, and the absence was the source of a lot of depression and anxiety.

My main regret is not buying earlier, money be dammed. I would happily trade that money for more happy years.
I can only quote OP on this:

> But if you feel the need to transform simple linear code into a map of higher order functions because of some abstract benefits you're probably doing stuff that's too easy for you and you should get your mental challenge from solving a more difficult problem instead.

This code is only complicated because you insist on following some abstract ideal.
The actual way to solve this in python is:

total_foos = sum(elem.foo for elem in elems)
pruned = [e for e in elems if e.foo < len(elems)]

Which is shorten than even your first code sample. If you directly translate your last example into sensible python, you get a nice example of some "simple linear code":

total_foos = 0
pruned = []
for elem in elems:
total_foos += elem.foo
if elem.foo < len(elems):
pruned.append(elem)

The existence of statements in python clearly stands in the way of achieving ideals of pure functional programming. But I think aiming for such ideals is the exact opposite of the point OP was making.
Ah, I drove past their office just last week and noticed all the lights were out and the parking lot was empty.

At the time I assumed they'd actually gone under, but now I realise that that would have been the "there is no spoon" scenario.
What a bargain for the airlines. A 1% penalty and they probably saved at least 5% in financing costs.

Thank you I’ll have a look
I worked for most of my career, at an "old-fashioned" Japanese corporation, and the level of Personal Integrity in the company was phenomenal. It was not "touchy-feely" nice, but people were honest (when they were yelling at you), and weren't playing games. Everyone was focused on creating great stuff.

I just took it for granted, but that environment was a bit of a "silo." When I left that company, and started to interact with today's tech culture, it was ... quite a letdown.

It seems that most executives are fairly sketchy people, these days, and they set a culture that is mimicked by the folks that work for them.

I guess that it's always been like that, but it seems a lot worse, these days.
Same here in Sweden. All school is like this. Not just Montessorri.
This reminds me of the PlayStation 3 Cell processor
Ohh ma gahd, I've been wanting something like this for ages!
When COVID caused a trip I had planned to be cancelled, I had flights with Iceland Air, TAP Air, Easyjet, and Brussels Airlines...

- Iceland Air and Easyjet issued refunds quickly

- Brussels took a few months, but communicated proactively that they were working on it and provided updates without me reaching out

- TAP never picked up the phone and I ended up having to force a charge after every other airline had come through with a refund...

Not surprised, lol
Same. I use AirBnB/VRBO when looking for an actual vacation home or the rare cases where I want something a bit quirkier/authentic/whatever. But if I just want a roof over my head? Hotel it is.

> The average Lifespan of a Kitchen Blender is around 5 years. This average includes all the high-end blenders such as Blendtec or Vitamix as well as low-end cheap blenders by less-known brands. A blender can work for as short as a few months for a poor-quality machine. While a great quality durable blender may keep working for more than 20 years. [0]

And, I cross referenced it with other sites from a search "life expectancy of small home appliances". they were mostly manufacturers, and insurance companies.

Since this is not scientific research, but simply my opinion, I am open for you to suggest an alternate time frame and source for your data that contradicts.

Yeah it was weird that Elon dropped that technical info, I assume he's talking about requests that happen on the backend that have nothing to do with android specifically? He couldn't have really thought 1000 round trips were happening between the phone and twitter. At least I hope not.

If tasks is their big accomplishment they are screwed. How about allowing you to change the default font on a note or a task?

I've been using Evernote for a while now, and I just don't get the pace of their development. Their changes seem almost incremental and take forever.
I have no problem acknowledging that fewer EV’s would be on the road without Tesla the company. I simply disagree that Musk actually moved the needle significantly long term.

The initial Roadster was the first production EV to have a range of 200 miles which then sold 2,450 cars. That’s a milestone, but Musk wasn’t even the CEO when it was released. I give him credit for being part of the funding round A though not a seed investor, an actual founder, or really all that critical to the process while acknowledging he very much was part of the process.

He had a larger role when it comes to the Model S, but by that point they had all the elements of a car and it really came down to execution. He helped turn a 100 million dollar company into a 100 billion dollar company, that is impressive. You don’t need to try and exaggerate his importance.
Well when the concern is leaked internal memos, that is a very reasonable assumption.
For me the real productivity benefit would be the 5th day when nobody is “working” but I log in and have an entire full day to focus without interruption.
It is also the norm in parts of Eastern Europe - having the same 20-30 class year between the ages of 6-7 and 16-17.

Could it be that the social life at the 'prestigious college' was just rubbish, e.g. geared towards extraverted mba-types with 'default' social activities being clubbing and drinking?
While I agree with your point, you must also be aware that in technological circles Kool-Aid is a thing and is leveraged by HR and marketing to further company goals.
...which IMHO isn't necessarily a bad thing. Here me out:

- you're already at the mercy of the "guys with guys" and the judges who direct them.

- central banks struggle to get timely complete information to make decisions. CBDCs offer a path to finally fixing this.

- central banks are very limited in what they can do today and in particular can't pop individual asset bubbles without cratering the economy. CBDCs offer a path to finally fixing this.

I know the crypto libertarians simply hate the govt, but frankly I love the (US) government:

- military that's reasonably competent (vs random warlords trashing everything)

- airports, roads, subways and infrastructure (vs every man for himself?!)

- air, water, food, etc that's reasonably clean (vs actually being poisoned or living in bubble?!)

The list goes on, but you get the idea.
I'd bet my had that most of it was meeting notes
My understanding is that most genetic studies seem to indicate the Basques likely migrated where they were around the same time as Indo-European/Yamnaya culture -- the copper age. Even looking at iron and bronze age remains, they are not appreciably different in genetic makeup than the surrounding populations.

Similar story for the Etruscans, in fact. High rate of R1b and associated haplotypes.

It seems likely to me that these populations were co-travelers with Indo-European speakers during the copper age. Following the same leads on metal and other resource deposits, and migrating along similar routes. I suspect if it was ever possible to find a "homeland" for these linguistic routes it would be along the Black Sea or Carpathians, next-door to the origins of the Yamnaya culture.

Maybe the Basques/Euskadia/Vascones are the descendants of the Cucuteni-Trypillia culture, an ancient agrarian population that the Indo-Europeans passed through and blended with (and maybe conquered) on their way west.
I think it’s worse than that. It makes people have to police their own thought about what they’re going to say, to avoid stumbling over one of the linguistic trip wires. I think that’s antithetical to creative thought.
I just rewrote web4 in Rust. Come join me instead.
The analogy is apt because war is an existential threat for the nation. Similarly, competition is an existential threat to the business.

I don’t think this is about war being cool so much as competition in the market place can kill your business just like an invading army can conquer your territory.

It’s about then mindset that you should adopt. Do you suppose that it’s ok for a business to let’s it’s competitors take its clients and market share? No of course not. You have to fight to keep it and take theirs. If you are equally matched then you will likely find equilibrium in the market. If you aren’t then someone is going to get eaten.
You can drag cmd-drag them out, or configure them via their settings (system icons are in the Settings app, others in their own apps). Some applications don't support that, and are always present, that's true.

It sounds like that's only the case for "good-will refunds" where the airline wasn't otherwise obligated to pay the refund.

> Frontier said it had issued about $100 million in what it described as “good-will refunds” that were not legally required. The airline will pay only $1 million of the $2.2 million fine because the Transportation Department credited it for providing refunds to passengers who canceled nonrefundable tickets early in the pandemic.

But, either way, the DOT's main focus is on getting people the refunds. I added a bit more context to my first message to clarify that, but also the fact that the fine is ~1% of the owed refunds makes it fairly clear IMO.
