That's certainly a very smart way of doing so.

Years ago, I had a similar need and I consulted TAOCP to find the “standard” algorithm to do so, which is done by a binomial tree. The tree T is defined recursively as T(0) = nil and T(n) = [Cons(0, T(0)), Cons(1, T(1)), ..., Cons(n-1, T(n-1))]. There's no need to construct the tree explicitly; it's just a conceptual formalism that helps formulate an algorithm to traverse the tree.

The text did mention using bitwise operations to do so; in fact it says it presents a “remarkable sequence of seven bitwise operations that will convert any binary number to the lexicographically next t-combination” but I haven't been able to find those seven operations.

Some states like Virginia have city and county both at the top local level. Richmond City is completely separate from the extremely rural Richmond county located more than an hour away.

Virginia is also technically a Commonwealth and not a state as well.

There is No Antimemetics Division by qntm [1]:

An antimeme is an idea with self-censoring properties; an idea which, by its intrinsic nature, discourages or prevents people from spreading it. Antimemes are real. Think of any piece of information which you wouldn't share with anybody, like passwords, taboos and dirty secrets. Or any piece of information which would be difficult to share even if you tried: complex equations, very boring passages of text, large blocks of random numbers, and dreams...

But anomalous antimemes are another matter entirely. How do you contain something you can't record or remember? How do you fight a war against an enemy with effortless, perfect camouflage, when you can never even know that you're at war? Welcome to the Antimemetics Division. No, this is not your first day

Your post is an accounting of all the things that you don't have. Sometimes, it is good to think about what you _do_ have.

It sounds like you have an M.Eng. degree, an ability to write fairly clearly and perhaps a reasonable awareness of the future possibilities for yourself.

You also have a goal: "I would prefer to go back to the US; not only for the dollars (they're nice), but also because I actually was happy there."

So, work on it? Build towards it every day. Spend every moment of your life chasing it. YOLO.

Well, I’d suggest making “A” stand for acetaminophen then.
If it's an unchecked exception experience says I have a 60-70 percent chance of not knowing it's there without a careful reading of the code. Which means I can't know myself if it's possible to handle it or not. I can always rethrow an exception if I know it exists. Languages that give me a way to ensure I know about it means I avoid unnecessary pain later in production with someone breathing down my neck to please fix it now. I'll take that any day over a little boilerplate.
The fact the SEC simultaneously insists it has the right to regulate crypto AND refuses to do the basic, vanilla, widely supported stuff like require brokers to segregate funds is pretty damning.

I'm a server admin; I think there's merit to this thought. There is an initial hump.

We don't want to dump users randomly into a small server because the community aspect is much stronger there. Thus, we should dump them into a big server -- perhaps a randomly selected one, from a list of general-purpose trusted servers (ideally democratically selected, but for now JoinMastodon.org seems to be fine).

Then, encourage people to move to smaller instances, and make it easier to do so. It's currently too hard. I moved because I was envious of smaller server's interesting public timelines which catered more to my interests.
I find it very refreshing that a company provides such high-quality software for free, and even creates free guides on how to use it.

I started with the free version running on Linux but unfortunately didn't support H.264 (it does on windows, I believe) and I had to do lots of converting of formats, which both wasted time and space.

I ended up getting the speed editor and studio version.
I think this is where it's going. Particular Mastodon servers will provide certain guarantees to their users and about their users. It's easy to envision a white-glove server + service that provides user screening, phone support, etc. at a price. Over time when certain celebrities join it becomes the popular server and sought after as a username destination.
Police forces around the global have issues with institutional racisim[0][1][2]. This global systemic behaviour does nothing to convince me there should be more police.

> A study of police-involved deaths between 2012 and 2018 found that on average, police kill 2.8 men every day in the U.S. The risk of death at the hands of an officer was found to be between 3.2 and 3.5 times higher for black men compared to white men[3].

If you want to talk about something that's effective. Bodycams are shown to increase accountability and result in more disciplinary actions against police[4]. Another effective technique is not sending police at all[5], but rather sending mental health workers and paramedics (to some calls).

Read them again. Where the guidelines say "you", they are clearly addressing the injured party.
all that I want is a place where I can see other tech people's comments on stuff I care about in tech; coding, architecture, cool technologies, whatever. People say that the network effect makes it impossible to switch over fully but look what happened with Freenode -- virtually _everyone_ moved to libera.chat in literally like two weeks. Is there an equivalent for Twitter? Which Mastodon "node" is the thing I'm looking for?
Its all semantics, I guess. You could argue that signals can be used to handle exceptional conditions (dereffing NULL). But signals are significantly different than what other programming languages call "exceptions".

Its the same thing as "run time". Pedantically, crt0 exists and therefore C has a "runtime". But it is nothing like what we refer to as a "runtime" today. The literal words are true but the meaning of the words doesn't match expectations.

I’m both intrigued and disappointed when people end up using ultra fast computers to solve these engineering problems. One, it’s a sign of progress and a potential solution. Two, it suggests a lie around the notion that we should have had an interplanetary civilization with flying cars, fusion reactors, and personal robots generations ago.

We didn’t have the compute power for any of this stuff in the 80’s. I did some reading a while back and discovered that there are elements of Computational Fluid Dynamics that became state of the art around 1990, so we are maybe two decades behind, not five.

Aws Lambda
Just imagine performance of modern software if developers took time to optimize it, like they did it in the old days.
Yes, if you have integrations set up (docker, kubernetes, etc.) then those secrets in the store will be synced to the respective environment
AWS Lambdas could be used for this, you can trigger them on a time schedule using an event bridge.
This guy wasn't just holding a gun. This was an active shooter who may or may not be actively killing people. They don't have a crystal ball, or access to the Ring camera to know what we know. They don't know if anyone is in the house. They just hear this dude shooting and he comes out of the porch with his finger on the trigger and the gun at a low ready position. Charging them with murder would be insane.

One of the drills that police are taught is how quickly a person can move from a low ready like this to aim and shoot. It is literally faster than you can react and pull the trigger to stop him. Worse, a shooter usually can kill you before he even feels your first bullet.

To get a sense of this, watch Jerry Miculek do a V-Drill from a low ready.
https://youtu.be/TuNSB9jkpyQ?t=66

Try to pause the video after the first beep and before he shoots. Keep in mind, the police have almost zero information about this person's level of training or state of mind other than that he is already firing his weapon.
"So good they can't ignore you" - the book has a contrarian viewpoint on how you don't look seek out the field that you are most passionate about, but rather you work at getting good at something and the passion finds you. Makes so much sense!

"Do hard things" - title is self- explanatory, real growth happens under pressure.

"The Snowball" - this is such an important book - not just great financial advice, but also filled with life advice from the sage of Omaha. It's over 1000 pages long, but it's so honest.
Indeed, by the same argument I made above, in any situation where a human doesn't have agency in a major decision that dramatically affects their quality of life, then the decision-maker has increased moral responsibility/culpability for the outcome.

I don't think that you are too old for anything that you said you are. You _feel_ old, as in lack of energy, or motivation, for example, which is an entirely different thing. Having a sport routine will most certainly address that. For example, in the morning after I wake up works for me, as it gives a boost of energy for the rest of the day. It will take about 30 days to get used to a routine, after that you will feel like you need it :)
As for the emotional need, that is the next critical thing to address. There are a lot of decent women in your age range, some of them after a failed marriage, which are looking for an emotional connection and a relationship, just like you. Put yourself out there, and let the matching algorithms do their thing. I met my wife using Tinder. It s a good start.

> exposing the greatest human rights violation in American history through the Twitter Files scandal

I don't usually reply in these Twitter threads, but cmon... surely you can see what a ridiculous hyperbole this is?

American history includes:
> Mass enslavement
> Incarceration of Japanese-Americans during WWII
> Hundreds of thousands of civilians killed in war
> Torture programs
> Blacklisting of (ostensible) communists during the McCarthy era
> Extermination and displacement of Native Americans

And that's just to name a few off the top of my head.

If we take the 99.99% as a hard fact that means 1 admin for 10,000 users. Sounds reasonable. Especially, if we consider that most of those will never even post anything according to Twitter behavior.

With respect to monetisation, I hope the fediverse will provide a live sandbox to try all kinds of experiments at eye level: Free, ad-supported, fees, one-time fees, pay-per-toot, pay-per-followed-instance, whatever. Multiply by private, non-profit, and for-profit approaches.
It's worth considering a therapist as similar to a medical intervention - yes, good eating, clean living, and regular exercise can keep you healthy, but after a very long time of not doing so, it's possible to find oneself too far down the road for that kind of change to sufficient on its own. Similarly, the help of friends, family, etc. can do wonders for one's mental health, but after a very long time of neglect, that can be beyond one's reach.

I say this as someone who rather successfully turned things around with a therapist - I simply did not have it in me to have those conversations with others and I didn't feel I had the relationships or support to do so (in retrospect I probably did, but that's the thing about mental health).

I don't think your diagnosis is wrong, particularly - there's a lot in the modern world that promotes alienation, feelings of low self esteem, and depression, but I think a lot of people find themselves at the bottom of the well before realizing quite what's happening and without the support structures to get out on their own.

(Edit just to note that, like physical health, mental health is not just the consequences of one's own actions - both genetic predispositions and unexpected life events can necessitate professional intervention by no fault of one's own. It's not what we're talking about, but just so nobody takes my post to be a psalm from the church of the self-sufficient.)
I mean yeah you can compare your preferences about which is a better taco wrapper, but there are many dishes where it makes little sense to swap one for the other. Enchiladas with flour tortillas? That's a totally different dish that I've never even heard of. Chimichangas with corn tortillas? I'm not sure it's possible. Can you make tortilla chips out of flour tortillas? I don't know but if you can, they'll be much different than normal tortilla chips.

> There is already a local media cache.

I suppose I should have been clearer - apologies. I was talking about a cache for previews (which would presumably be folded into the local media cache since it's already there.)

> you still have a thundering herd when a popular person boosts a message

Not if the boost includes the preview - that -should- cut it down significantly (and indeed it has been proposed but is still being bikeshedded by the Mastodon devs because "what if someone sends a fake preview?!?!?!?!")
Been through something similar (a bit younger). I am still going through it I suppose...but here is what I think.

You can put labels on yourself like: professional network is dead, single loser, prime is gone (this is all stuff I have thought too)...that stuff may be true, but you are shutting yourself down. You aren't even waiting for people to say no, you are saying no to yourself.

Ultimately, you can't change what has been.

I know what it feels like: you see someone in the news, you look and see how old they are, was their success continued through their life...but you are you. Maybe no-one has ever done it but does that mean you can't? Don't ask people online (do you want someone on here to tell you it is impossible so you don't feel as bad?), find out for yourself.

You say you lie to yourself...but you also quite critical of yourself too. Have you accepted what has already happened? You have struggled. That is it. You may get rejected if you try move past this, people will tell you no but if you are just waiting for validation passively...you will never get anywhere. This will get worse. The way out could come tomorrow.

Saying that you need to move to X or you need to do Y first...it is just an excuse for your current situation.

I haven't had it personally, but one of my SO's tried a famous "perpetual stew" when in France and we talked about it at one point. Her description kinda matched what I'd expect from braises that I've let go to long: you end up with bland mush.

I think there's a reason very few restaurants serve this style of dish, and it's not because of health codes. We live in an era of insane abundance compared to the medeivil and colonial eras. A lot of historic dishes from those times just don't stand up to the expectations of a modern pallet.

I'm supportive of universal healthcare, but this is a huge exaggeration. If policy decisions are motivated by uninformed memes like this, then if we ever do get universal healthcare, it will be a disaster.

You can buy human insulin for $25 a vial at Walmart. It's not as good, but it's what people used a couple decades ago. Countries with nationalized healthcare often have long backlogs for treatments. The cancer backlog in the UK is over 2 million people and it's continuing to grow [1]. Also, if you are insured, you're typically going to get new and more sophisticated treatments on the US compared to most places with nationalized healthcare.
