Preparing is the fun part. The hard part is doing the work. Making a study plan, picking out which books you'd like to read, making a list of all the chapters as TODO items, and even picking out the exercises you should do, is easy and fun. It's the equivalent of education fast food. You're imaging yourself in a future state where you know all this stuff without having put in real work.

The hard part is doing the unsexy work. Slogging through exercises. Confronting failure and embarrassment when you don't know something without lying to yourself and immediately googling the solution. Unfortunately there is no "one weird trick" you can use here. It's hard, but in the end all you need is discipline. Sitting down for an hour to focus and study has become increasingly rare and difficult in a society where we are conditioned by 10 social media apps bidding for your attention every second. If you are anything like me, sitting down and reading a hard textbook for an uninterrupted hour doesn't come easily anymore. And it's my fault for allowing myself to become so easily distracted.

And writing blog posts about how to study is surely more fun than actually doing the work. And posting comments on HN about how to study even more so :)
I've used the flags given in the readme on GitHub.

gcc -fwrapv generated.c -lm

But anyway (besides that this is a lazy answer as it sounds like "not my problem"), how could a C compiler prevent this in the general case?

To play devil's advocate: Why not stick with C as it seems to be the more "secure" language in this case? (Even we all know that C is inherently insecure, which is the reason for alternative system languages in the first place).
To the contrary, I think the Roman Empire was a few inspired people short of an Industrial Revolution a thousand years early.

Things can be prepared but also waiting for the right spark. There are also lots of circumstances of similarly prepared places where the revolution only happens in one place.
Glad I could give you a laugh! It brings me joy to bring joy to others. Have a great new years.
I see the same thing. Meanwhile watching offshore salaries go up up up month after month for senior devs (5+ yrs xp)
Game theoretic analysis might reveal this as a typical equilibrium.
> the US under Trump has formally recognised Golan Heights as US territory in 2017! [1].

No, it didn’t.

And, in any case, the Biden Administration, while simultaneously claiming it was not changing the policy under which Trump recognized Israeli control of Golan, has restated it as being that the US sees Israeli control as in Israel’s legitimate security interests given Syrian aggression and the aggressive bent of the current Syrian regime, but that a change in that situation would potentially result in a reassessment.
US big companies are all backed by the government in one way or another. Friendly taxation, incentives, technology transfer, government contracts, tariffs on foreign companies. There is just a veneer of separation between government and private sector.
Too many to mention. I renamed a variable, but it renamed a string. It disconnects all the time. It lost my shell history. I copied a file but then it disappeared. Etc, etc. I discover them as I go along.

It's a toy.
If only stackoverflow had a voting system.
there is a tangible disinterest in prosecuting this --as well as most-- sex crimes in the united states. In many US states, rape kits used as pivotal evidence during trial are backlogged and processed at a near glacial rate or lost entirely. Bill Cosby and Harvey Weinstein are examples of a situation where power in the united states, combined with a longstanding puritanical distaste for sex, culminated in a decades long failure of justice.

even the very protections victims receive in US courts are a mark of our inability to approach sex itself with a mature demeanor. we'd rather soldier on in silence, discipline, and remorse than honestly atone for real crime. that a victim themselves may succor the courage to face their attacker in court, is such a vicious affront that we're given no choice but to prosecute or lose face.
You can get around the "check in every transaction" problem with an ORM, but now you're (more) coupled to your ORM which you will occasionally inevitable need to circumvent for something or other. And now you've made it (more of a) leaky abstraction.
That's great but unfortunately you're the minority. 0.004% of users ends up giving something in my OSS project
Now add microchips and all kinds of technologies deemed to be of national interest.

You also forgot the national auto industry that was bailed out from certain disaster in 2008.
I agree, it would be much cooler to 3D print it, using the image as a heightmap. Maybe even make 4 separate pieces to increase scale. Preferably in a FOSS 3D printer using home-made plastic, with the models uploaded from a PDP-11 only using the shell.
If this comment is the truth it is just extremely funny.

How naughty of you!
With a procedural language and SQL introspection features, you can programmatically generate triggers, functions and backing tables for these kinds of things. For Postgres, this SQL can generate temporal tables backed by JSONB for any table:

https://github.com/solidsnack/macaroon/blob/master/temporal....

It would be pretty easy to change this to perform deletion-with-interning like mentioned in the article.

In an older version, the code actually replicated the schema of the source table in the log table; but it can lead to problems during migrations.
The average of what? Only full time (30h+/week, ~40h/week) or all workforce including part time (<30h/week)?
I came home from a long vacation this summer to find that the circuit breaker had tripped on my top loaded freezer and all the meat had spoiled. Much of it had essentially liquefied. The smell was horrific.
I think dependence on any centralised 'authority' for useful medical and scientific guidance is almost useless. They're full of corruption, profiteering and shortcuts in the interests of things other than peoples' health.

What saddens me is that I think the most important medical resource available is disappearing in many places: the local family GP.

The doctor that is aware of your family history, the environment you live in, your diet, the local society ailments and passing illnesses, enhanced with their research and network of other doctors. This gives the best chance of diagnosing with good assumptions and educated guesses.

Being so mobile now and people relying on hospitals and random doctors is highlighting the issues with the literature and governing bodies: they're not that smart, make bad assumptions and have too much pressure on them to give proper attention.
EU countries also have huge taxes, taking 50% of your income directly and if we also calculate VAT and all indirect taxes like for electricity, taxes will be something like 80%. So basically for the most people in countries like Germany work doesn't worth it, because you can get almost the same income from the state as social help without doing any work at all...
Trying to make the unsexy work funny :)
The 2006 version from xkcd https://xkcd.com/195/
"My mother, drunk or sober"
"Who am I to judge?"
That’s a lot of assertions but one could also make the argument that vacant spaces have far lower land value because there aren’t large numbers of families living there. If this is true, it seems questionable that the people living there are benefiting only in a one-way manner.
I’m 32, took my first surf lesson in November and absolutely loved it, bought a board that weekend. I’ve gone out whenever I can since then, about once a week at the moment and still loving it even though my stand-up count is still not that high. It’s such a unique and challenging sport, I’m so glad I tried it, good luck out there!
Unless I am mistaken, that exception is narrowly exactly what it says. The only transactions over $1,000 that don’t require specific pre-approval are transactions where the money flows from SBF to his lawyers or the court to pay for legal costs and fees.

Selling something where the proceeds are intended to be used in a later transaction to pay legal costs and fees would still require pre-clearance.

Otherwise, it would be a vacuous restriction, as he could literally conduct any transaction (at least, where money flowed to him; it would be harder but not impossible to justify asset purchases) on the justification that he would eventually be using the proceeds to pay legal costs and fees.
Only 6.8%? Unless I'm living paycheck to paycheck, 6.8% is an absolute bargain for 5 hours of more free time each week, assuming a 30min commute.

5h/week are equivalent to at least 4 weeks of PTO in a year.

Plus, vehicle maintenance costs, gas costs, and I can do chores around the house any time I want which saves even more time because I don't have to plan my day around the washing machine.
Could you share how you structure your cards for this ? I've been using Anki for a few months and I've yet to find a way to cover CS topics appropriately.
> Bugs are just inevitable no matter what you do, short of writing games in Haskell (maybe), which sounds like a nightmare to me.

Bugs are evitable. That's just a question of money. But yes, for games the cost would be to high usually.

Also I don't think Haskell would help much. (And it would be unusable most likely, imho).

But proper abstractions and strong types can help a lot!

On the abstraction side Godot seems great. But the scripting language (even nice in isolation) is not a good idea, imho.

Refactorings in dynamic code-bases are almost not manageable without introducing bugs. (Especially as you don't have proper tooling support without static types).

C# as such isn't bad. But it's syntactically unpleasant. Way to much overhead for game logic "scripting tasks". Still I would use it instead of GDScript. One needs proper tooling support when writing code.

Let's see what else will come up in Godot. They have some interface layer for other languages (even not fully supported with alternative languages).
I am the same way, when I am compensated accordingly. And when I am not, my mind drifts to other things. It’s like manic :)
Are these a Veblen good? I don't know, maybe in some arcane game of card based war they "trump" all others. I rather think that they are, like Boring apes, an object whose price is the whole point of existence. Their price elasticity feels like a function of anything but normal market forces.

At least the app which said "yo" says .. "yo"
Unfortunately they've all had the mandatory corporate training to commit crimes over the phone and not email.
"archaeologists believe that the mound's creation could have been influenced by two different astronomical events: the light from the supernova that created the Crab Nebula"

That's a pretty dubious assertion (and I notice that there aren't any references to which archaeologists supposedly believe this), since:

a) I'm pretty sure there aren't any examples of buildings or structures being "influenced" by this or any other historical supernova in any other cultures; and

b) No mention of the supernova of 1006, which was brighter and longer-lasting than the supernova of 1054?
Quite a bit! I read and listened (podcasts) all I could find about it, in addition to all surrounding context, from all points of view (supporters and detractors). Fascinating case.

Unfortunately what it all comes down to is experiential testimony, and I still believe that without physical evidence or extraordinary film footage of some kind (which apparently exist but haven't been released due to "reasons"), all attempts to rationalize the existence/non-existence of this phenomenon will remain speculative (I'm aware it's not exactly easy to prove non-existence).

I actually find this whole topic a wonderful epistemic exercise; initially everything is trivially dismissible so you Bayes weight to impossible and crazy, but as you dive into all the accounts throughout history you really can't be so sure of your initial assessment anymore.

What will move the needle to improbable is if we "solve" physics (QM vs gravity, theory of everything etc) and definitively rule out all mechanisms in support of high strangeness phenomena (i.e., there really is only 4 fundamental forces, no extra physical dimensions, etc).

Until then my head cannon for all this might just be we're being toyed with by unthinkingly scientifically advanced entities.

Or.. spirits and the supernatural is real and is entirely non physical, the phenomenon is itself intelligent, and thus cannot be studied by conventional scientific methods (but even then I'd think the scientific process should work).

Ah well, see how fun it is to speculate :). Hopefully with the recent shift in government attitude towards UAP we'll see some hard data released soon and make more accurate assessments.
This may simply be smarts on the part of the designers of the chip on the motherboard - either a motherboard vendor can choose to use it without external silicon andoughly get 1 USB-C channel or add the external switch and get 2 channels - it uses roughly the same number of pins for the two sorts of interface (and more importantly the same number of high speed serdes pins)
> there is a tangible disinterest in prosecuting this –as well as most– sex crimes in the united states.

This is definitely the case, and is one of the reasons I won’t go farther than suggesting there is reason to suspect specific corrupt influence on this case. It looks pretty bad, but a lot of the prosecution (or not) of sex crimes just doesn’t get attention, and looks as bad or worse when examined closely. There may be specific corrupt influence, and there are lots of directions that could have come from, but it also could be just the general attitude of tolerance for sex crimes in the US. Conspiracies are sexier, and allow one to ignore the glaring societal/broad systemic problem and pass off responsibility.
> There is no better way to build a mobile app than a native app.

Clubhouse (a native app) said the same thing years ago and ended up becoming irrelevant and its features were absorbed and overtaken by Discord (a React Native app) with its Stage Channels feature, all before Clubhouse could build it's Android app.

By the time Clubhouse released its Android app, their lunch was already eaten and it was too late. It turns out that, after recently looking at their latest app build they are slowly integrating React Native in their app.

This sounds like a quiet way of them admitting that they should have used React Native in the first place for both iOS and Android to release quicker had they done that as I said before. [0]

The market is not "free" as they pretend to be. The US market is essentially the investment market, a small club of extremely powerful WallStreet companies that dominates the investment landscape. In this sense, it is very centrally controlled, if not by the government, but instead by a close elite of capital managers.

A free market would be something like a farmers market where producers sell directly to consumers. Instead, the US stock market is more like a cartel where there is a central group of intermediaries, which control money moves between producers (companies) and buyers (small/medium investors).
Does this mean prions cause alzheimers?
Just to be clear, I'm not disagreeing with the point you are making now, but it's clearly different from your original post which was all about "creating value".
Great read. It’s three years old now, and I wonder if this practice has become more or less common - I could see it going both ways. As such, perhaps a (2020) in the title would be useful.

Also probably better to link to the actual source, though hackaday isn’t really blogspam: https://richardg867.wordpress.com/2020/02/29/usb-c-done-chea...
The general population contains sociopaths at a rate of 3% of males, and 1% of females. Additionally, roughly 70% of these people grew up in single parent homes without a father, and roughly 30% were from unwed mothers.

While these facts may reflect on a civilization's cultural values, it does not cover the roughly 1% of the general population that are born psychopaths. Psychopaths are generally not treatable, and a subset of these individuals should be considered dangerous.

Part of designing a Marketing/Sales campaign, is accounting for these folks too. One needs to realize some individuals are hostile if they feel you owe them something, and can attempt to do something nasty.

Have a wonderful New Year, and remember some jobs are just not worth the drama... there are hundreds of less traumatic jobs around that also pay well. =)
Your fundamental point being any QR code for any purpose anywhere risks this?
In the days when I was overworking, I had an office with a door and windows, rare (sub-weekly) meetings, and in-the-money options. Why should anyone in an open plan, with substantial coordination/micromanagement overhead, but without significant equity do the same?
If you want people to stay, pay them more in tune with what they're worth and they will. This isn't brain surgery.
I would love to hear about the challenges you experience with taking notes during lectures.
> But HTTPS only, with no option for HTTP is very much worse

Have to agree with this. Been playing with `window.addEventListener('devicemotion')` recently, that shit is https only, which means I can't debug it on a simple localhost. WTF.
The funny thing is that inflation has been rampant for decades. However, this inflation only manifested itself in stock prices and other financial assets, and for this reason it was seen as great news. Now the inflation is migrating first to house prices, then to commodities and every other aspect of our lives, and they start to complain!
> I'd caution people against forming strong opinions about Indian politicians based on western coverage of them. It comes across as uninformed and politically motivated.

I'd caution you about assuming where people get their information, or trying fruitlessly to reject all information in a very broad category.

> It isn't a dirty word.

It very much is a dirty word, that leads to war and brutality (including against Muslims in India). It was a/the primary cause of WWII, according to people like Churchill. It was outside mainstream politics for generations until the recent far-right nationalist-populist movement, which got power and - predictably for nationalists - try to overthrow the democratic power of the people. It leads to the worst of humanity.

Your portrayal of Modi is bizarre misinformation. Modi and the BJP openly sell themselves as open, aggressive Hindu nationalists.
Can't speak for most firms, but I interned at Jane Street and this definitely wasn't the case: almost everyone there worked 45 hours/week with a consistent schedule (market hours + a small buffer).

It makes sense: they value people doing high-quality work and avoiding mistakes. Everybody there was also clearly very productive—it was one of my first experiences that convinced me that long hours are actively counterproductive.

I understand other firms in the space (like Citadel) have pretty different cultures, so it's not going to be true for the entire field.
> Wikipedia doesn't quote the records associated with 1054

Wait, what? The Wikipedia article on SN 1054 has an extensive discussion of the Chinese records (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SN_1054#Chinese_astronomy), as well as Japanese records and the Arabic account of Ibn Butlan.
> In some of my earlier examples, the model correctly predicts the make/model of cars that are only partially visible in the photo. To study how far this can be pushed, I panned a crop along a side-view of two different cars to see how the model’s predictions changed as different parts of the car became visible. In these two examples, the model was most accurate when viewing the front or back of the car, but not when only the middle of the car was visible. Perhaps this is a shortcoming of the model, or perhaps automakers customize the front and back shapes of their car more than the sides. I’d be happy to hear other hypotheses as well!

I would hypothesize this is an artifact of the training data being photos taken for the purpose of selling the cars.

As a seller, it doesn’t make a lot of sense to take a photo of the middle of the car, unless a) you’re trying to hide something or b) you’re being lazy (implying the car isn’t worth much of your time). I would imagine that better photography in general - composition, framing, lighting, setting - would be correlated with higher car prices.
Cpp2 and cppfront: Year-end mini-update
JSONB seems like something I need to put a few nights into understanding, but my time is short and filled with diapers and bottles.
I'm more concerned about the goat herder intentionally dropping a tree on the path because he's having a bad day and wants it to be your problem too.

Perhaps it's a distinction without a difference. But if it happens a lot, you'd stop using that path.
Yanis, not Yanks.
Pretty much anything of importance. Mom and pop businesses were destroyed in mass during the last 40 years. Now, practically only companies owned by the big capital have survived.
Yep, just adding my agreement. It's amazing that I still want to fire it up and play a few runs even years later. Incredibly well balanced and just enough variation to keep it interesting .
That doesn't make any sense. You (and the OT) are effectively misleading people to associate "Apache" with the folks that screwed it up with log4shell.

If the concern is that "most people" will have a wrong perception, I don't see how talking losely about Apache will help. Apache is irrelevant in this context.
Is your goal to make "most people" steer away from anything Apache?
I find it interesting how in some countries IPv6 on mobile is more common than wired. Here in New Zealand not one of our mobile carriers offer IPv6. All have no plans to do so stating that there is no demand for it. This also extends to wireless broadband. This is in contrast to fibre/DSL type connections where customers have a choice of several ISPs offering IPv6. Fascinating to see the different market dynamics in different countries.
Modi and the BJP arrests opposition voices, limit free speech, and most of all promotes brutality against a religious minority. India is a declinining, less free country.
If a good acronym is what we need, why not Outsourced For Free, or OFF-ware? ;)
Yeah, that term is such crap. I've heard "rational disengagement" and find it much more descriptive.
