The word "lend" is a synonym (same meaning) for "loan" (as a verb) while "borrow" is an antonym (opposite meaning).

"I will lend you money" or "I will loan you money."

"I need to borrow money until I get back on my feet."

It is not grammatically correct to say "I will borrow you money."

> AdWords is mainly written in Go. YoutTube is mainly written in Go

Can you source these claims? Last I checked, YouTube was primarily written in Python, and I doubt that's changed dramatically in the intervening years given the size of YouTube. I assume there's some similar thing going on for AdWords.

> Just because they have strategic reasons for not directly monetizing Go doesn't make it a side project more than any other internal tooling.

Agreed, but all internal tooling is a side project pretty much by definition.

> It's core to their ability to pull in revenue now.

No, it's just the thing that they implemented some of their systems in. I'm a big Go fan, but they could absolutely ship software in other languages for a marginal increased operational overhead.

> If they were somehow immediately deprived access to Go, the company would go under. That's how you know it's not a side project.

I don't know what it means to be "deprived access to Go", but this is a pretty absurd definition of "side project" since it applies to just about everything Google does and a good chunk of the software Google depends on whether first party or third party (Google depends much more strongly on the Linux Kernel; that doesn't mean contributing to the Linux Kernel is Google's primary business activity). It seems you have a bizarre definition of "side project" which hinges on whether or not a business can back out of a given technology on a literal moment's notice irrespective of how likely it is that said technology becomes unavailable on that sort of timeline, and that these unusual semantics are at the root of our disagreement.
Yeah, that might be a big part of it. I was shocked to discover how flimsy multi-story houses are constructed in North America compared to what I'm used to.

Every single apartment I've lived in in Stockholm has had a single stairwell, and it's not something I've ever thought about because no-one thinks of it as an issue. But on the other hand, those stairwells are always concrete and stone and marble, and fire regulations forbid you from storing anything in the stairwells or outside your apartment.

Take my current Stockholm apartment, there's a four-storey drop from the balcony to the ground and a single stairwell, which would apparently horrify every North American.

But the walls are concrete. The walls between apartments are concrete or drywall. There's four apartments per landing. The apartment doors are made of steel. And the stairwell is empty and marbled, so there's nothing that can burn in the stairwell, and it's very difficult for fire to spread from one apartment to the others. There's no sprinkler system, but I think there's a fire extinguisher on each landing.

Not a problem.
I have the same question! I understand parent's criticisms of context objections and logging boilerplate, but I'm not following the "fight against structured logging." What are the alternatives? No logging? Unstructured logging? Why would either of those be better than structured logs?

This is basically what you do currently for a TTS engine if you have ALS or similar. The search term you want is "voice banking". You are given a long list of words and sentences, often complex, to read out that have all the different sounds and then these are re combined by the software. The problem is that by the time you know you need this, you often already have speech problems and so making clear sounds is difficult. Also if you're like my relative who was trilingual you would need to do it in all three languages using the current system. She got a half way decent voice bank in her native tongue, but it was still noticeably slurred. She didn't even attempt it in her second and third tongues.
Do more Western Europeans burn to death than Americans?
Part of the car-centric infrastructure is fire codes. American towns have lots of fire departments which all refuse to buy smaller European-style fire trucks, and all roads have to be built to fit what they buy.

European buildings are also less likely to be made out of wood, which is good if you care about fire safety that much.

That's true for most nonfiction with the caveat that you miss out on the lingering mood of a full book if all you get are the executive summaries.

I don't understand. I live in a three-story apartment building in San Francisco that has about 20 units (ground floor is retail space, the upper two floors have 10 apartment units each). There's a single entrance and stairwell in my building. However my building also has two fire escapes (one of which is accessible via the hallway, I think the other fire escape is only accessible by certain apartment units) and an additional wooden staircase in the back that leads to the garbage area. I don't know all the zoning laws, but this is an extremely common layout in SF. My building, like many many other buildings in the city, was built in 1906 after the earthquake, and all of the building built in this time period have a very similar style and layout.

> each bedroom must be equipped to be fire proof for X minutes

This is the kind of absurdly complex regulation that sounds simple, but is a lobbyist's dream. Two exits are easy to know when you've implemented, and easy for regulators to check if you've implemented. A "bedroom" being "fire proof" for X minutes will involve 900 pages of nonsense regulations from which lobbyists have carefully removed anything that will affect their bottom line.

"Each bedroom must be equipped to be fire proof for X minutes" was the type of rule that caused the fire brigades to tell people in Grenfell to stay in their apartments, and even more importantly the type of rule that allowed contractors to claim compliance to was sufficient enough that they could use flammable, shit cladding that was illegal in Europe and the US, and install it incompetently (because if the units were "fireproof," who could care?)
In most areas, the building code explicitly requires a window in every bedroom. This serves as an additional emergency exit, either directly on the ground floor or with assistance from firefighters on higher storeys.
Best bang for the buck? In terms of raw hardware, maybe. But the buck bangs less when you consider the inferior library of games.
This is the take that Asylum Films takes. (the studio behind 'Sharknado') Their business model is: Whatever big block buster film is in theaters, they make the cheapest, low budget, knockoff that they can [1] (e.g. "Planet Dune", "Top Gunner", "Ape-Monster vs. Giant-Lizard", etc...)

"our films tend to be shitty mostly you know not to be taken too seriously a lot of people talk about wanting to watch quality cinema but we found that most people ourselves included usually just want to come home from a hard day of work you watch it you have a good time you never have to think about it again the technical term in the entertainment industry is actually called a drafting title I mean if you go into your pharmacy you'll see the brand-name decongestant and you'll see the stores version which looks exactly like it but it just calls it decongestant that's - a mock buster" [0]

You are getting too hung up on the implementation details.

Capability based security means that applications are very limited in what they can do by default and need to be given capabilities in order to do something. Yes, one way to give an application a capability is by representing that capability by a token, but another way to give an application a capability is by giving it a permission.

If you want the term to refer to a specific implementation ignoring that it is identical from the end user's perspective then I'm fine in conceding.

There was a rather disturbing recent TV adaptation of The War of the Worlds[0] that also featured similar killer robots. I found it particularly terrifying, because it nailed down an aspect of realism most action and sci-fi shows purposefully violate - those robots had accurate aim. There isn't much firefighting or daring escapes. You spot one of them (or don't). It spots you. A second later, a bullet goes through your head. Then the robot continues to look for other humans and single-shot killing them on sight.

Almost all the evil robot/AI movies, shows and games give people an impression that robotic weapons are tough, but pretty bad, and have to rely on overwhelming force or sheer numbers to be dangerous. In reality, computers can think, observe and act much faster and with much higher precision than humans. A military-grade skynet robot with a gun may be stupid when it comes to tactics, but will be more than capable of scoring a headshot from a distance, mid-flight, on first shot, before you even know it's there.

(And of course the real reality is that we already have much more terrifying and effective killer robots than anything wielding a firearm https://xkcd.com/652/.)

This is different than saying the definition of the reals is “vague”. The models and various definitions are not vague.

One can either accept or reject the axiomatic system but it isn’t vague.
> You are the only one here arguing about race-based policies. Neither I nor the passage you quoted by Ibram X. Kendi make such an argument (if Kendi makes the argument that racial discrimination is necessary, I don't agree with that. But the passage you quoted isn't making that point)

He does, and it forms the foundation of the book "How to be an Antiracist" which is where it is made, and the book is one of the most widely cited books from those who support the concept of racial equity (ie racial policy preferences to achieve specific outcomes by skin color). If you don't support racial preferences/discrimination that's good, but it certainly seemed like you were defending it throughout this exchange. And by backing Kendi, you are backing a racist. It's certainly within your rights, I just don't agree with it.

> If you want to implement a policy based on race, obviously you can just ask the person what their race is.

Why would we ever want the government to participate in racial discrimination though? We've seen that never ends well and only leads to resentment and divisiveness.
It's hard to predict how these sorts of systems play out until they start to scale up. I don't know much about these but I can imagine a functioning incentive structure that gives hardware owners the freedom to schedule downtime with reasonable notice while penalizing them for going down without notice. A decentralized cloud could have big advantages over centralized data centers; lower costs for highly diffuse "voluntary" maintenance labor, fewer single points of failure, etc.

It might not work at all, but it's not necessarily a Ponzi scheme (which isn't even really an accurate way to describe NFTs, which are a mostly worthless asset bubble; ponzi schemes require lying about transactions having taken place, not lying about the future value of an asset)
This one might not be 100% owned by the oil and car lobby, but it is clear that most companies want people to come back.

Most cities want it too -- if you don't need to be in the city then its going to lose tax revenue, both in terms of residents, but also things like sales tax from people who work downtown and eat lunch nearby. And the downtown donut shop -- what are they going to do for income now that everyone who used to work there is in the burbs or out of state?

Point is there are a lot of forces trying to to undo that, not just the automotive lobby.

> Yes, I do imagine that people who are really into Go are more likely than average to join or start Go shops, and then pick GCP over competitors because they have to start with something, and being Go people, Google stuff comes first to mind.

How many such people do you imagine there are? I'm active in the Go community, and I've been a cloud developer for the better part of a decade. It's never occurred to me to pick GCP over AWS because Google develops Go, nor have I ever heard anyone else espouse this temptation. I certainly can't imagine there are so many people out there for whom this is true that it recoups the cost that Google incurs developing Go.

Rather, I'm nearly certain that Google's value proposition RE Go is that developing and operating Go applications is marginally lower cost than for other languages, but that at Google's scale that "marginally lower cost" still dwarfs the cost of Google's sponsorship of the Go language.

The reason is pretty obvious: so the end user can filter spam based on it and see why something was flagged.
roughly, imagine a decision tree where each end node has a set of probabilities and a utility points values per outcome probability. You multiply out the probability of each outcome with it's point value and pick the decision path which maximizes your probability weighted outcome. In most cases utility points equals how much money you make or lose but it doesn't have to be that.

So if one path has a 10% chance of -100000 points (ie something terrible happens) and a 90% chance of get 1000 points (something very good happens) this path has an expected value of (.1 * -100000) + (.9 * 1000) = -9100

whereas some other branch has a 100% chance of an outcome of 10 points. You take the branch where you get the guaranteed 10 points because even though the best case is on the other branch, the average case on that branch is worse than on the 10 point branch.

And what I'm saying is they decided that their highest average payoff as doing some compromised version of self allowed diy whereas they get a really bad payoff in the case where the diy legislation is written externally and actually forces them to allow reasonable diy

It also degraded performance. I had to use a .NET-based issue tracking web app 20 years ago. The performance was horrible, with pages sometimes taking 20 seconds to load.

>On the technical side, the difficult bit is coming up with ways that discern the owner of a computer from a mere possessor of a computer. There are many legitimate cases for protecting against a mere possessor (evil maid, datacenter, theft prevention), to the point that blanket outlawing processors with built in code signing isn't going to happen.

That idea is so easy to abuse (e.g. are you sure you become the owner when you buy a computer?) that IMO there really should be no distinction between owner and possessor. If you have physical access to the device you should be able to do whatever you want with it. Physical security is easy for people to understand, unlike public-key cryptography.
