NGL, it's a great way out of the service, the refusing vax I mean. There is that moment after you've been in 2-3 years where you're just so freakin sick of it, no choices, no options, just on autopilot. My options then were to shoot myself in the foot, basically, so I just kinda soldiered on, but now I can regurgatate some BS conservative talking points and GTFO?
i always appreciate a bone collector reference. what a ridiculous silly amazing movie.

for me the quintessential example is "Phone Booth." starring Kiefer Sutherland, you say? i wonder what role he plays.

i think the movie "Seven" (Se7en) managed to keep the surprise bad guy out of the trailer and unbilled until the end credits. that was badass.
The ban may grandfather existing devices, but if it prohibits "manufacture" and "import" you're not going to be able to get replacements. It's like lightbulbs--you don't have to turn in your incandescent bulbs, but you can't get new ones.
Correct. There is no national requirement to offer paid time off in the US. Many states require paid sick leave. I'm not aware of any states that require paid vacation time.

That's like saying murder isn't heinously evil, because murder has existed long before you or I.
Someone knowing existing pattern help me understand this. right now when i use these “foundation” apis in swift it is doing c call? so they rewriting now the c code in swift? (dont do ios or mac code so now sure)

me dont understand what make it faster now. i once wrote some jni code to call c++ library from java. does mean there some similar code to do cross language call? they get rid of it and so things now faster?

offtopic but debugging crashes in c++ over jni call was super hard. logs not work and me not figure out how to fix. wonder if they had similar “troubles” and this make everything easier :)

always feel skeptical when seeing large code base have “rewrite”. try many time in me career thinking there good reasons but super hard and not best value in end
If you have the skills on hand then I think it's worth doing TF off the bat, otherwise it's probably better to wait until you have the requisite pain/motivation to learn. It's a pain in the ass to learn how to do TF _initially_ but not bad to do after you learn, and going forward you avoid a lot of "oh wtf just happened" moments during deployments/infrastructure changes.

I have a sifive "unmatched" board sitting here collecting dust, cost me $700 then.

Most projects turned out ARM based after I bought it.

The site is not working, any price of this board? What's its market, e.g. ip camera? I'm still interested in lower cost ready to go risc-v boards.
No, that is not true, and five seconds of googling could have told you that.
Yet, somehow all of these methods get used orders of magnitude less than firearms to commit mass murders. Both in the US and elsewhere.

The US isn't really my standard. In sane jurisdictions you actually need a special license for bigger vehicles. And those still aren't as easy to control as smaller cars, so I suspect you highly underestimate the difficulty involved in committing mass murder with a vehicle. Sure it's not impossible, but pulling a trigger is one heck of a lot easier.

People who try to commit amok runs with cars or trucks actually do get stuck quite often.
yep definitely, it'd be nice to have a way to communicate this, I totally agree. And yeah they probably didn't because people would freak at seeing errors corrected during normal operation.

This is anecdotal, but I'm curious if this happens to anyone else: any time I try to establish a connection over 5G ultra wideband, it seems to hang for a good 5 or 10 seconds. Like if I take out my phone and try to visit a website, it hangs for 5-10 seconds and then loads. It got to the point where, if a website took a while to load, I would check if I was connected to 5G or not. Eventually I disabled 5G and the problem went away.
Not a dumb question at all.

You need a full copy of the game from Steam or somewhere else to hack the game. You can get the source code here: https://github.com/shirakumo/kandria and hack on it that way.

You can also just look at the asset files in the install folder and mess around with those. Nothing's encrypted.

I'm simply referring to the guideline.

> Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith.

The claim that enjoying to be asked about pronouns is a narcissistic trait is unfalsifiable at worst and unable to be worked out through dialog at best. We could say something about it through surveys and descriptive statistics, but that wouldn't form the basis of a causal relationship.

Instead, rhetorically, it's much easier to ask if there simply isn't an interpretation which doesn't assume the worst in people. Doing so reveals more about the commenter than it does about the topic and kindly suggesting a positive or at least neutral interpretation builds bridges of meaning instead of assuming an argument.

In practice would be what the resulting apps turn out like.

In my experience, old-school ObjC iOS and Mac apps generally tended to be quite snappy.

On the other hand, the new Swift hotness of Messages and Settings on macOS are noticably slower than what they're replacing.

Of course I haven't done a comprehensive inventory, but I certainly don't have the general impression of things getting faster with Swift. (Are there examples of this?)

My guess is any theoretical gains are generally swamped by the language culture of complex abstractions.
Fortunately, I never needed to come up with a Plan B as I fairly quickly landed a job with someone I knew at a small competitor of the the company I was laid off from (which was still doing OK although that changed). But I never got so much as a nibble from anyone else.
That’s still not a microservices vs monolith problem. That’s a bad data stewardship problem.

If your data is a mess before you decided to break out functionality, then it’s gonna be hard regardless. You should have good schemas and db organization always.

How do you confirm the identity of your customer to ensure your DMCA takedown notices are legitimate?

How do you programmatically discern between non-consensual adult images being shared against the subject's wishes versus images where they are somewhere public, don't own the copyright to the photo, but the law does not require the copyright holder remove or take down the image?

Cool idea, might need to pivot, regardless an interesting space to be in in these times.

EDIT: Appreciate the replies!
You mean the few extra megabytes of RAM for some extra compiled code on each node?

If you refer to databases: Splitting one service into two services can at most give you a 2x scale-up potential (usually a lot less), and the effect diminishes for 3th, 4th service. Mathematically and logically. Splitting services = vertical scaling.

If you want 100x, 1000x scaling you need to invest in true horizontal scaling anyway, and that works pretty much the same way for monoliths as microservices.

Is there anything similar to this in C?
yep also true. maybe you could build some kind of tooling around this, if builds are deterministic (or you do something like pgbench with a deterministic workload/script) then there's no reason you can't check the output in addition to very obvious segfault failures.

This will take a while, but I'm looking forward to it.

It's probably another big step towards "Swift everywhere," without worrying about bridging to C.

I've been doing little but Swift since 2014, and really like the language. I'm still "on the fence" about SwiftUI, but that's mostly because of the level of support from Apple, and the [im]maturity of the system. This will help with that.
I bet y'all would make a lot more money charging $8/mo to find porn with the exact facial characteristic someone is looking for.

Don't get me wrong, revenge porn is bad, but charging people money to take it down seems, well I guess better than nothing but let's hope a nonprofit starts maintaining a database like this and completely eliminates any market this site may capture.

Also abusing the DMCA for censorship, even in pursuit of a noble cause is harmful to society, though maybe not more harmful than revenge porn?

I'm really curious how our culture will continue to reckon with the ideas that

a) There are intimate images extant of many people. Many will become most.

b) AI powered face swapping and image generation will make arbitrary porn trivial on home-gamer GPUs in a few years.
Some old houses have exposed wiring in damp places, so there really is electricity leaking all the time. Theres probably some wire with paper insulation touching a plant root under the house, slowly steaming away.

OP is correct that in this case a GFCI would trip all the time.

But on the other hand, GFCI leaks are fairly easy to track down and fix, especially with the right equipment.
Fight Club is a coded (biased) subliminal message about the internal (psychological) process of radicalization of the modern young man. Thinking about it now, it reminds of the “Obey” nonsense that supposedly was designed as an “ironic comment on contemporary society” that regrettably served the function of having the word “Obey” appear wherever you looked.

Now that said, criticism leveled against regime du jour is merely the contextualized social barb (“consumerism”), with the substance of the intended strike aimed at the confining and defining social norms (which are present for any social regime whatsoever save pure anarchy). The process of destabilization necessary for revolution invariably entails undermining and devaluing foundational norms of the ancien regime.

As to the sanity of our hero, the reconstructed modern man, the message posses the question: did neuroses engender a ‘shattered social self’ or was the neuroses the side-effect of a misguided social condition?

How would you compare Swift with Kotlin in terms of being a good stand-in for high-level Rust?

I've not paid attention to Kotlin in a while, but it seems like there's more progress at supporting Kotlin across more platforms (Kotlin native, web?, etc). I'm curious if people feel that the language features and design are at about parity, or if one is significantly stronger/weaker.

That is likely my single biggest pet peeve of the current state of tech is other people being able to consent to MY information being gobbled up just because they clicked a damn button.
Vanity sizing would still mess with your dream, which is the real issue with finding the right size.
There are an awful lot of UFO/UAP sightings by the Navy in the last two decades. And they largely ignore them. There's a consistently-reported "sphere-inlayed transparent/translucent stationary airborn cube" aircraft that the Navy gets hundreds of reports for by its pilots. And the number has been growing year-over-year.

Only a few have been seen with the human eye. The majority are seen via instruments. They know they're the same type of aircraft because their flight styles (or rather, the lack thereof) are identical to the ones seen in person.

They were largely undetected until the Navy rolled out some more advanced sensors/instruments relatively recently, and now they see "flocks" of them flying in formation, or sometimes individuals stationary and unaffected by wind patterns.

Is it aliens? Birds? Foreign drones? Experimental drones from higher echelons of our own government? Nobody knows. That's why it's actually interesting. Because even the Navy can't say it has an answer. But almost nobody seems to be interested in finding out, for some reason, despite them routinely flying in our restricted airspace without permission.
A single 4-week vacation.

He used to save vacation over 2 years and go on a 6-7 week Europe trip over summer break. It was painless and guilt-free (using the accrued / earned benefit he was entitled to), just logging the time off in whatever system they were using (and letting the manager know as a courtesy); now he needs to justify the time and obtain approval 5+ management layers above for it; maybe it's just a formality but it's unnecessary stress.
> A filter list by garment type that lets you filter out dresses and blouses?

That's ridiculous. You're making things a thousand times more complicated for no good reason besides ideological performance. It reminds me of how, in ancient China, once a new emperor was crowed, everyone was supposed to stop using the characters in his name in written documents (i.e. re-spelled a bunch of stuff).

Classical gender is actually a pretty good solution to a lot of practical problems.
Serialized transactions don't work fine. That's one thing Postgres itself struggles with. Your xacts will conflict and both fail, and you might even exceed queue limits as you retry. It's just not optimized for serializable xacts, which is a conscious decision because you inevitably sacrifice too much performance with it.

The working approaches aren't so obvious to users unfamiliar with the details of Postgres. People think they have full ACID, and it's not apparent that rows and uniqueness constraints are magically transaction-safe while aggregates are not. If you're following the usual advice of schema normalization, you will get something with race conditions.

Postgres is still my favorite DBMS regardless. Maybe there can be a clearer way to advise users.
The number shouldn’t really matter as long as the 2022 number was of sufficient size.

The primary concern is whether or not they were truly random/unbiased samples, which, is unlikely given that the data is self reported.
This is mad and I love it.
Intelligent but not conscious would still be a few steps ahead of GPT.

We can take a concept and refactor it symbolically. GPT can't do that. All it does is find symbols that are semantically close to other symbols.

Yes, I don't think replacing SMS with a private company/single organisation as the messaging platform provider is the solution (which is why I also count out WhatsApp also, despite currently relying on it heavily to communicate with Android users).

I think in the end we need a cross-platform messaging protocol that replaces SMS/MMS that is not reliant on a single app vendor, provides end-to-end encryption and will be supported by mobile network providers.

I can see why Google/Android's pushing for iMessage to be an open standard (they have a page dedicated to this that looks like it's written by a war propaganda writer: https://www.android.com/get-the-message/). It would be nice, but it's also good marketing for iPhones so I fail so see why Apple will play ball unless the likes of the EU implement legislation to make it happen.

Note: I'm not sure the assumption that only the US is dependent on SMS is accurate (I think that it's a standard that works globally and is currently relied on by majority of countries AFAIK).

Incidentally multi-site development (page 89) and remote work (page 312) are discussed in "Mastering ENVY/Developer" but here's the part of your comment that puzzles me: you write this as-if it's some-kind-of gotcha?

> You would ALSO have to say by the way you must use this particular version of the base-image. Right?

To make the build process reproducible we start with the same thing and then add, remove and change stuff. Right?

That wasn't because of ENVY. That was something that would be written as a Smalltalk script — because reproducible.
I don't understand why and don't know when spaces were started to be used for indentation. It never made sense for me. Your code editor surely supports setting tab width if you are not happy with the default.

If the answer is vertical alignement I will weep and offer pity, but no sympathy. Even if that is the case you can still indent with tabs and aligns with spaces if you like to torture yourself, others and your RCS' history.

That is the new model. You order on the app and pick up your items or have them delivered.

The other day I visited a target and half the merchandise was behind plastic walls. I walked right back out and they lost a few hundred dollars in sales, but the pick-up/delivery employees have their own keys to those plastic doors.

Eventually every store will just be an Amazon warehouse. The economic pressure (and by extension, ecological pressure) is simply in that direction.
Little Caesars is objectively terrible, sorry.
You'd have to be sure that the compiler will also preserve NaN propagation through optimization, which is itself not a safe assumption (internal models for compiler IR often model floating-point as producing a nondeterministic choice of NaN representation, which means that it's not illegal for an optimization to fail to propagate NaNs).

As for performance gains, well, the thing is you're not likely to see much of a gain. The post argues that "standard is to store the floats in the high 32 bits of the pointer, with the low 32 bits as a tag", except I've never seen a system like this (tbh, I haven't really done too many VM systems, so my experience isn't great). That tagging model seems like they're assuming a pointer-tagging system [0], rather than true NaN-boxing. With NaN-boxing, you'd want to use the high bits of the payload, so that the low 32-bits can be used directly for whatever value is boxed. See https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/js/public/Value... for an example of NaN-boxing in Firefox's JS engine [1]. What you save from somebody already using high payload bits from the tag is... an or instruction at the end to set the bits.

Realistically, though, there's very little need for a VM to support 32-bit float types. They're not actually faster than 64-bit floats (except for division) in hardware, and the main benefit of smaller float types is more compact memory representation--except if you're boxing all the values anyways, the 32-bit float types also aren't any smaller.

[0] Classical pointer tagging uses low bits for the tag, because you rely on pointer alignment. However, with 64-bit systems generally having only 48-bit pointers (57-bit with x86's 5-level page table, but this requires processes to opt in to using 5-level page tables anyways), it makes a lot of sense on 64-bit systems to also use high bits for the tag these days instead.

[1] JS doesn't have 32-bit floats, but it does have 32-bit integers, so you can at least get an idea for how the payload would be set if the boxed value could represent 32-bit floats.
No, crypto is outside the US money supply. For the most part crypto needs to be converted to US dollars to be useful so the crypto money supply doesn't compete for goods and services so it mostly does not affect inflation. If ever it becomes a second money supply then it will have an impact.
