If you're using "LR" to mean bottom-up generated parsers (as OP does, rather than meaning LR(1) grammars, parsed by whatever means), then there is no higher level construct info on the stack - these operate in strictly bottom-up fashion.

e.g. first an identifier might be matched (which could occur in dozens of different high level contexts - but the parser has no idea at this point), then depending on what comes next it might turn out to be part of an expression (vs the RHS of an assignment, or parameter, or type definition, etc, etc), so after a few "reduce" actions the parser will have realized it's an expression, which again could occur in many contexts (LHS of an assignment, subject of an if-statement, for-statement, etc, etc), and so it goes ...

At any point in time a bottom-up parser knows nothing about the higher level context that it hasn't yet got to - only the tiny program fragment is is progressively recognizing in bottom-up fashion. This is one of the fundamental differences between a bottom-up and top-down (recursive descent) parser.

In the game of backgammon, there is an aspect of luck (the game is played with dice), but there is definitely an aspect of player quality. When a more experienced player plays against a worse player, from the point of view of the worse player, the game often looks like the opponent is just lucky: What the inexperienced player does not notice is that the better player creates opportunities for the “luck” to occur: by positioning the checkers on the board in a way when the majority of the possible dice rolls would be good and minimizing the number of possible bad rolls.

This is especially visible when playing against a good computer opponent: the players often accuse the program of cheating the dice, choosing good rolls for the computer and bad rolls for the human. There is even an “Official Backgammon Software Complaint Form” for that. <https://www.bkgm.com/rgb/rgb.cgi?view+546>

I'm triggered by the lack of brackets after every if-expression. Sure it looks nicer this way but the default Visual Studio code style settings will complain if you don't do it, hence I'm used to it.
HTML the markup language was clearly intended as an SGML vocabulary - TBL himself said as much [1] and HTML also reused element names from the SGML spec/handbook as example/folklore vocabulary such as for paragraphs and headings.

What browsers made out of it isn't the matter here, but even if it were, the "practical, real-world HTML out there" argument is mostly used to pull up the ladder by an ad company/browser cartel made worse day-in day-out through an atrocious and absurdly voluminous HTML spec (and by CSS, of course).

Even though Ian Hickson, of WHATWG, wanted to capture HTML as it was understood by browsers, he couldn't help but added additional elements of his own - such as for marking up ads as "aside" lol plus the alien sectioning elements concept that gave rise to the flawed "outline algorithm" and misuse of heading elements (and earlier failure to understand SGML's RANK feature), a problem that was only fixed last year [2] by an incompatible change to HTML invalidating documents using hgroup as originally advised.

In practice, very few changes to the HTML syntax brought HTML outside SGML - for the most part, ad-hoc and basically unnecessary commenting rules for the script and style elements to keep legacy browsers from rendering JavaScript and CSS, resp., when those where introduced.

The thing is, once you take away all the industries thriving on selling products that damage/ruin lives, there's not really much left is there?

It's legal to sell fast food and junk food (crisps, fizzy drinks, chocolate, even juice) which in large contributes to the obesity epidemic. It's legal to sell alcohol, cigarettes and other addiction forming substances. It's legal to sell media like video games and TV shows which waste people's time and potential.

> The doctor's malpractice insurance expired yesterday

certs are not malpractice insurances though, they simply say that who you say are is who you say you are, which doesn't change when the cert expires.

Ids expire only to remind people to update their personal data and the picture on them.

And to remind the State to do a bit of background check once in a while, but even passports last 10 years.
I agree it’s horrible to discriminate on personality types.

As a counterpoint, though: in software jobs, the ability to pick up things fast is commercially valuable in some roles. As a hiring manager, if school grades helped me identify extremely smart folks who pick up things fast, then those grades are a useful tool.

Not all jobs are the same, however, and so other hiring managers might set a lower bar for grades. But it’s important that we have these tools, in addition to the various other ways we evaluate candidates.

Reread your quote. It says the value is "pegged to fiat" AND "backed 100% by reserves"

Nowhere does it say every tether is backed by a $1 reserve.

You're falling for their slick scam words.

In practice difference between SPF softfail and SPF hardfail is less significant than in theory (where everyone follows RFC7208 to the letter). Many mail system don't reject a message in case of SPF fail - SPF result is used one of many inputs for an anti-spam system. If we have SPF pass we can assume that a message was sent from an infrastructure approved by the domain owner and if domain has good reputation we can take it into account. If we don't have SPF pass then the sender address in the message can be spoofed. Be it SPF softfail or hardfail or even a missing SPF record we cannot trust the sender address. But if otherwise message looks good it still can be accepted.

DMARC makes things a bit more complicated but it is similar - either you have DMARC pass (which is good) or you don't have it and why exactly you don't have DMARC pass is less important.
It's DRM. I refuse to deal with any company that tries to push this BS on us.
> But as it happens, Dobbs himself provided some perspective on his thinking in an email exchange with KrebsOnSecurity back in 2020.

Absolutely hilarious. It just goes to show how dumb seemingly smart people can be, especially in relation to criminal actions.
Then there’s the definition of luck. Seems like this article is very career-focused.

Sometimes it’s good to remember relationships and free time are also forms of luck.
Lyra and Will don't think of themselves as being involved in a multi-dimensional struggle of good and evil in the books either.

That's one of the key points of the books as well. Lord Asriel is the one who is fighting a multi-dimensional struggle of good and evil and it corrupts him.

Lyra and Will are kind of just struggling to figure out what they are supposed to do through most of the story, and eventually just kind of try and do whatever is right, while still harboring doubts about their actions. It's a more realistic story of a hero, in contrast to the others who are absolutely sure about the fact that they are in the right, which in itself leads them to doing terrible things.

The assuredness and lack of doubt in religion is something the original book story makes out to be a bad thing.

Interesting, thanks for sharing. I just read through it.
And I think the best thing is to ignore such tweets. Twitter rewards short, silly, and controversial takes like that with engagement, so there'll always be endless of them. The poster may not even believe it but just typed it to get engagement and social validation (hell of a drug)...If people were to write articles responding to every silly tweet, the world wouldn't be able to read all of them in time.
Disagree with your disagree. I understand there’s a recession and security people have to justify their salaries.

The most secure system imaginable is for your users to shut their computers and go outside. If you can’t provide security without usability, your system is worthless.

The truth is that users want products that feel secure, rather than products that are secure.
It's obvious you have tendencies that make it difficult for you to understand, and therefore effectively communicate, with others. The result is you cannot understand why someone would consider the expression of something as deeply fundamental as their own happiness with themselves as more important than some "guidelines" on a forum ran by people who are not themselves.

That you rely so heavily on the guidelines is telling, it's what often happens when persons don't understand the underlying principles.

Your initial post came from a place of not understanding. As we've interacted that's become more and more clear to me. I see no need to belabor this any longer.

That's not what the article is saying.
I've been moving from working 100% to 80% to 60% while still making enough money to provide for a family and to squirrel away a decent portion of my salary.

I could have continued working at 100%... but what for? I realized I don't need status symbols like expensive clothes or a sports car with vanity plates, and my kids will get their smartphones second-hand, just as I do. We're now living in the countryside with decently sized garden and some animals around the house.

I've escaped the treadmill and it was the best decision of my life.

This sounds like a very good way to get stuck at a local optimum because everyone is trying to get the next 2% improvement instead of heading for the global optimum which might require backtracking.

Economics for example, isn't lacking Keynes style geniuses, it is lacking pluralism. People are calcified in their stances and teachings and even Keynes said that there is not a lack of new ideas but the opposite, the problem is getting rid of the old ones.
What kind of router, raspPI or kitten blog will you Mom be visiting at the hotel that would be of any importance?
As I said, I wouldn't suggest allowing this scheme for anything important, such as Google, banks etc...

To answer your question, I don't think the TLS cert should ever change for these kinds of non-identity certs. if they do, the standard warning can apply.

My point is that there should be an escape hatch to provide resilient solutions to narrowly defined use cases, such as hobby websites, wifi routers etc... that don't trains users to bypass security control like the current scheme does.

Right now, if I want my Mom to configure her Huawei wifi router, she has the choice between sending her password in plain-text to a trivially spoofed website, or being trained to ignore TLS warnings and overriding those warnings in her browser, before sending her password into a still-spoofable website.
The only thing that jumps out at me is this:

I suggest learning poker basics. After playing poker for 8 years and having it as a primary income, it changed my view on a lot of things. For example, the things described in the article I call it statistics, not luck and after playing for a long time, I don't really believe too much in luck anymore.
GRRM left the story in a mess. There is no easy way to reconcile it, which is a huge part of the reason why he has struggled for 2 decades to move it forward.

The problem is that if you are at a point where even GRRM cannot move his own story forward, it's unlikely someone else will do a very good job.

And that's basically what happened. Even if the writers are the most top notch, they aren't GRRM, otherwise they would have their own fantasy series out under their own names, as opposed to writing for TV shows.

The ranting description didn't come into play until you decided to make a post that was 5-6x as large as anything else in the conversation.

your "immediately accuses me of ranting" didn't happen anywhere near immediately and I suggest you do some introspection to better understand why that was your reaction.
"Trade" agreements seem to be 90% a backdoor way to get corporate-friendly laws. Does anyone believe US-Canada trade would have been harmed if Canada had a "mere" life+50 years copyright?

And since 50+ year old works bring in negligible profit for all but a small handful of exceptional works, it's not even the case that the copyright extension is about squeezing out more profit from them.

What it's really about is reducing competition on an already oversaturated market, so new works don't have to compete with freely-available old ones.

Luck is also determined before you are born: around half of the population live with less than 2usd a day, so half of the population is starting in very unlucky conditions, and would be harder for them to try to create luck when they are struggling for survive.
Same here, but had to switch to VS Code very quickly. Thonny is very nice, and nothing does the Py Pico integration better, but too basic I'm afraid.
> Nuclear definitely needs to be a larger part of our energy future.

Why? I think nuclear is effectively obsolete at this point. It had a potential once upon a time, but no longer because the world just moved on, like happened with say steam powered trains.

Nuclear is really ill-fitting tech to the modern age. Say, who's going to build it?

Investors? But it has a terrible time making a profit. It's incredibly expensive to build, and has a very long payoff time. If you're into money, then you don't like a business plan that requires a loan of many billions and that might pay off in decades, if renewables don't ruin the business model. If you're a banker you probably don't like that either.

Okay, let's say it's a political project then, we'll pay for it with taxes. But that's not great either because construction times are long. As a politician if you throw your effort behind nuclear, your chances are slim to see it being turned on while you retain your position. The chances of seeing that plan start to profit are even slimmer. The chances of a successor sabotaging your legacy are pretty big. So your incentives as a politician to get behind nuclear aren't great.

Let's say the politicians are onboard anyway. Even then, it's tricky. Governments are sovereign. Even if the current government promised that this plant is guaranteed to sell its power for $X and therefore is guaranteed a profit... guess what, if in the future it turns out that solar is everywhere and your power costs 10X than anyone else's, people will likely get tired of paying for that, and might as well break the promise some other party made 15 years ago, and there goes your profit.

If you care what I think - most people stop reading at the "4 types of luck" level (because that's where pmarca, naval et al stop), but what I'm trying to contribute to the conversation is the role of strategy in creating luck. People who are more intentional about their strategic decisions and awareness end up more lucky. But I'll have to prove it thru my own life success since simply arguing it doesnt convince anyone hehe.

I'm totally hooked on these (pakistani?) videos. It's sort of relaxing, and cheap edutainment.

What I've seen is that lots of these videos are uploaded to many YouTube channels (ripped from one to the other, or having the same people behind, I don't know). They don't even have that many views, and don't post super frequently, I'm not sure they're making a living through ad revenue. I would love to read a piece on who's behind these videos, it's very intriguing.
Or you can be _both_ at the same time.

I feel like Microsoft is doing what Microsoft does yet again. They piggybacked on the whole "open source" angle but this time, rather than be "software vendor lock-in closed source assholes", they're now being "IP theft open source" assholes.
That publish command looks sweet! For confidential data I'd have to setup some integration with our infra to get the required access control though. Maybe rather go with the package option using docker and a pipeline that deploys to our k8s where I could handle auth using an existing proxy...

My current workflow doesn't really involve creating databases, I mostly just create foreign tables, normal tables and views in a default DB. From time to time I then just dump-backup everything away and start fresh.

A literally device. "Pupeteering" in the sense of the story as well.
I think that "specialized folks deciding our ethics" sounds authoritarian. I much prefer it to be public, competitive and democratic
analaguously, I got the impression from the article and the discussion here that slavery was a dead-end trap; a local maxima - without pain being experienced by people who had the ability to change things, there wasn't much incentive to make such change - "just buy more slaves"/"just work the slaves harder"
It has almost twice as many comparisons as necessary. The term to the left of each AND is redundant because it has already been checked by the preceding IF. It also does not guard against negative arguments. Perhaps the environment in which it is used guarantees that negative arguments cannot occur.

If I were reviewing this code I would at least ask the developer to add an assertion or contract requiring that the argument be in the inclusive range [0..1]

The choice of variable name, percentage, is also misleading. At least I suspect it is because I would expect the comparisons involving percentages to be to numbers between 0 and 100.

If lack of allocations is a requirement then one could create a static array of strings and use

int(percent * 10)

as the index. This would eliminate all of the comparisons and also throw an index out of range (in any sane language) if the value was outside the allowed range.
