> don't make having close friends part of your main goal

Why not? If that's what you want, then, by definition, that is your goal. Sure, you might be falling prey to the XY problem, where your actual problem is that you're feeling emotionally unfulfilled, but erroneously believe that having close friendships (when you currently have few or none) will help solve that problem. But... I kinda think that's likely to be a pretty good solution.

> C is often [correctly, but misleadingly] advertised as a cross-platform assembly language, that will compile to the assembly that the author would expect.

Because that's what it is. What they don't tell you is that the most heavily-developed two (or more) compilers for it (which you might otherwise assume meant the two best compilers), are malware[0] that actively seek out excuses to inject security vulnerabilities (and other bugs) into code that would work fine if compiled to the assembly that any reasonable author would expect.

"chrome" is cyberpunk slang for body mods. I assume they meant they'd some body mod installed.

These slang terms aren't specific for that franchise either, they are common in all things cyberpunk.
My understanding is: Silicon Valley hires tens of thousands of the most brilliant, expensive engineers to write always-on distributed systems and to try and keep them alive with the data sort-of consistent. Enterprise does not do this. Your bank writes simple, naive, non-distributed programs. The operator of one super-reliable computer invokes the program and makes sure it runs to completion each night. When it is time to make a deployment or a database migration on an internet-connected service, they just declare a maintenance window and go down for a few hours. There's one big ole SQL database in normal form with joins and transactions.
At the same time, not having a mailing list is suicidal when big tech is ramping up erroneous removal of accounts, pushing users elsewhere (Twitter potentially. And Facebook has reputation of being for old people now), or killing organic reach (Facebook since a few years back: pay up).

Let me tell you about illegal ion movements.

You see, nerves transmit impulses by allowing charged particles called ions to enter the nerve cell.

All actions a person does could probably be described as a series of ion movements.

If those ion movements result in you hitting your neighbor in the nose, then you will probably get in trouble.

Hence, illegal ion movements.

There's little need to go 600 in a stretch of just a mile or two. The tunnel has a limited length and is nowhere close to finished. The 600 mph figure was quoted by hyperloop, which is a proposal by Musk but not an actual business owned by him. Boring Co is building tunnels for electric cars. They will not have a top speed of 600 at any point. Certainly if hyperloop tech gets built at practical scale in the future and if tunnels are needed for parts of it, it would make sense to use boring co for that leg. But the original design of hyperloop was above ground in elevated tubes.

Showing up isn't enough. You have to engage with people, and push past mundane surface-level topics of conversation. And after that, you have to follow up and schedule time outside of whatever place/activity where you met.

I mean I agree, you're missing my point.

> You can live outside in a tent or under a couple of moving boxes.

Not legally in a lot of places you can't! The point I'm making is that while we need (and should have as a right) many good things, the need to have a home is a particularly special one because locations are in fixed supply, and not even for one minute can you opt out of existing in a location, and every location that people want to exist in is currently owned by somebody, most of whom aren't interested in sharing.

And wouldn't you know it? Locations that have steady access to all that other good stuff (education, healthcare, bunch of other stuff) tend to be way more expensive than other locations, precisely because they gatekeep access to them.
Xenophobic - what a load of garbage. It's well known that countries have policies on whether or not foreign buyers are allowed to buy residential real estate. Me having an opinion on that does not make me xenophobic.

>>Any tax payer should be treated equally..

Foreign buyers are not taxpayers in Australia/Canada/USA.

"The Prohibition on the Purchase of Residential Property by Non-Canadians Act (Act) comes into force on January 1, 2023. It prohibits the purchase of residential property in Canada by non-Canadians unless they are exempted by the Act or its regulations, or the purchase is made in certain circumstances specified in the regulations."

https://www.bennettjones.com/Blogs-Section/Canadas-Ban-on-Fo...

In Australia and Canada, Chinese money has flooded our real estate markets - much of that money is anecdotally said to be the gains of corrupt officials and people trying to exit the country due to the oppressive regime.

"Chinese investors flooding billions into the Australian real estate market prompt money laundering fears"

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-10-12/chinese-investors-flo...

This outflow of capital from China, pouring into Australia and Canada pushes up prices, meaning that people who are not citizens or permanent residents are buying local real estate and inflating prices. Every house owned by a non citizen/permanent resident means one more that cannot be bought by a citizen/permanent resident.

Why should people from other countries be entitled to own our residential real estate? If you believe the purpose of housing is to house the citizens and permanent residents then there's every reason to close out foreign buyers, as Canada has done:

"Demand for U.S. homes from foreign investors is pushing up home prices, exacerbating concerns over housing affordability"

"Housing markets are preferred destinations for foreign investors looking for yields, vacation homes or safe havens, or for those dodging tax restraints and corruption crackdowns in their home countries. But demand for U.S. homes from foreign investors, especially Chinese, pushes up home prices, exacerbating concerns over housing affordability, according to new research from Wharton."

I am wondering why Epic Games comes to mind, but not Steam? I see this happen quite often.

I have nothing against Steam or Epic Games; rather, I am curious why the discourse around the two seems to be different, even though they're quite similar as services?

Did Epic Games do "something wrong" (not sure what the right term here is, please do suggest a better one if it comes to mind) in comparison to what Steam does?
If you believe this I'm afraid that you have successfully been brainwashed by Atlas Shrugged propaganda that dominates American politics. It is the idea that we have to kowtow to bosses ("capitalists") otherwise they won't provide those jobs or will leave. It's a ridiculou snotion.

The only thing that will stop capitalists doing capitalism is that it won't be profitable.

In a lot of places we aren't building things because we can't (eg in most of the US it is quite literally illegal to build anything other than SFHs) and what we are building in a lot of places isn't aimed at normal people (eg the ultra-luxury skinny-tall towers in Manhattan).
Opioid crimes are weird. I’ve known several people who have self destructed on them.

I’ve also got horrific nerve pain that left me for years wishing for death.
Doctors constantly refused to give me anything other then occasional 30 day supplies.

Yet at same time they refused to discuss alternative treatments. Even when I would bring them articles and papers and support forums.

Finally I turned to sketchy website to get a fairly common drug LDN. That solved my pain problems which also makes it so that i can’t take opioids.

I still haven’t found an in person doctor that will prescribe it.
In fact, the airlines got caught doing this a while back.

https://www.propublica.org/article/yieldstar-rent-increase-r...

> Competing airlines began using common software to share planned routes and prices with each other before they became public. The technology helped head off price wars that would have lowered ticket prices, the Department of Justice said.

> The department said the arrangement may have artificially inflated airfares, estimating the cost to consumers at more than a billion dollars between 1988 and 1992. The government eventually reached settlements or consent decrees for price fixing with eight airlines, including Alaska Airlines, all of which agreed to change how they used the technology.

It's the title of the book, too. *You Are Not Expected to Understand This: How 26 Lines of Code Changed the World." I agree, it's a terrible title, it sounds like a technical book about a single 26-line snippet of code, but it's actually a series of 26 unrelated essays about people & their societal impact, and it's not a technical book at all.

TBH though, it sounds like an interesting book, and probably a pretty small time investment. I might buy it despite its dreadful title.

Why version at all? They went 10 years without versioning. The reasons stated for needing versioning are weak at best ("like deleting a response field, making an optional parameter required, or deleting an endpoint entirely"). Just retain backwards compatibility. Once you have versioning, people feel more comfortable making incompatible updates which is a terrible direction.
A lot of people in C++ land probably just have the vector optimizations off. If you use clang, you will get vector instructions at -O2. Gcc seems to need -O3, or the specific flags enabled.
I have to protest the assumption that if people are spending time on it is what they want.

It can be and often is what people fear-- what they DON'T want. It's a pretty good survival technique, in general, to pay attention to things that threaten you.

Companies monetize this human tendency, same as any other.

Playing on people's wants may waste their time or make them dull, but playing on their fears also harms them by producing constant stress.
> make iOS Safari more useable

I'd argue it's really good in 2022. We only distribute our software as a web app these days. Many of our customers exclusively use iOS Safari to access it.

We even got the PWA stuff working reliably. Our web app runs full-screen on iOS devices and is launched from an icon on the home screen. For most users, there is absolutely zero difference between this and a native iOS app experience.
It's interesting, verbosity is generally a sign of having poorly formed ideas "sorry for the long letter, I didn't have time to write a short one" etc. These language models are side effects, afaik they are trained to predict the next word and at scale it becomes a good sentence generator.

At least where I live (Seattle) it’s known landlords deliberately shift leases to end in summer, which is when rents are higher due to new graduates moving to the area and spiking demand. If you get offered in summer you’ll get 12-month as the cheapest.

It's an interesting idea, but I don't think we should limit this discussion to hashing. We could discuss the same idea with other encoding/processing schemes.

For example, you can present two or more different bit strings that appear random, but when XOR'd together produces some "illegal" content.

Which of these is illegal to transmit?

OEM parts can be really expensive, but there are also choices of buying aftermarket ones (mostly made in China) or salvaging from another ones. Near where I live there is a guy who salvages Land Cruisers for a living, he has more than hundreds frames lying around in his yard. Since most of the Land cruisers here have 3rd world spec (carb-ed and detuned engine, part time 4WD, mechanical gas pump etc...), the used parts are often in very good condition. Take the dreaded blown head gasket for example, I rarely see that here because 1FZ-F doesn't run as hot as 1FZ-FE. Or the Birfield, most people just run on RWD mode so they are often pristine.

(of course for something critical such as brake booster I would only use OEM).

And the OP's citations even make this clear.

From the MD5 citation:

> A: No.

From the SHA-1 citation:

> "Finding a practical collision attack breaks the hash function badly of course, but the actual damage that can be done with such a collision is somewhat limited as the attacker will have little to no control on the actual data that collides," Thomas Peyrin, one of the researchers told ZDNet via email over the weekend.
> Coming from programming in Java first, I honestly would like to see a lot of UB eliminated from C/C++, downgrading them to either unspecified behavior (weakest), implementation-defined behavior, or single behavior (best). But the correct place to petition is not compiler implementations; we have to change the language standard - the contract that both sides abide by. Otherwise we can only get as far as having a patchwork of vendor-specific language extensions.

That feels backwards in terms of how the C standard actually gets developed - my impression is that most things that eventually get standardised start life as a vendor-specific language extensions, and it's very rare to have the C standard to introduce something and the compiler vendors then follow.

And really in a lot of cases the concept of UB isn't the problem, it's the compiler culture that's grown up around it. For example, the original reason for null dereference being UB was to allow implementations to trap on null dereference, on architectures where that's cheap, without being obliged to maintain strict ordering in all code that dereferences pointers. It's hard to imagine how what the standard specifies about that case could be improved; the problem is compiler writers prioritising benchmark performance over useful diagniostic behaviour.
Oh no, in practice I just do the usual thing and feel vaguely dissatisfied. It just doesn't rise to the level of resisting peer pressure.

A place to live is a market based thing. There's no real difference between what RealPage is doing with housing, and what the CME Group is doing with crops. They both facilitate price discovery. The CME also is helping farmers maximize their profits. The difference is that farmers are allowed to grow as much crops as they want (perhaps a little too much in drought-prone areas), so food prices grow much more reasonably than rents. Meanwhile, developers aren't allowed to build enough housing to meet demand, so of course rents and home prices will skyrocket.
