it's true that fulfilling his wishes has no point for him (at least not from our viewpoint among the living). It has a point for us, as a general phenomenon.

That man saw the writing on the wall and it turns out he was right. So we have to think about people in the same situation today, or other people. How do we respect them and their wishes when they are gone? Those who live now they see how we treat those who pass, and act and feel accordingly. A little bit of respect might go some way towards a more peaceful coexistance and a happier life while we are alive.
Not really a problem one would be aware of. Double glazing is the default
since 50 years at least in Germany, so the manufacturing processes are quite good.

Still, leakages happen, you recognize that usually by water/steam between the two glass panes. If the windows aren't to old you can just switch out the glass leaving the plastic frames. If they're older (30 yrs) it's more economical to switch out glass and frames.
Oh I can relate to this as well, but I think its not just being mentally tired.
Me personally I want to get through the story, I do not have time to explore the world to get to the next chapter. And I feel a lot of games nowadays have this goal of rewarding exploration at least thats what I get from youtube reviews of the games. So like you for me eventually the game just becomes more work after work
You did your hacks out of string manipulation? I didn't even know that was in there. I just used the list variables (basically vectors and matrices) when I needed more than 27.
We chose GraphQL at Grafbase for a few reasons:

- The client can ask for the data it needs, which also improves performance by reducing bandwidth

- Aggregating data from multiple data sources with a single request

- Widely adopted and loved by frontend and mobile developers

It's the same everywhere that doesn't implement a robust land tax. Which is to say, everywhere.
Aren't most single- or few-family homes made of wood? I'm living in in the farming belt (i.e. not the actual forested parts of our country) and over 80% of these houses are wooden. It's mostly apartment buildings over three floors being built using cement.
But even in Cpp, you need to eventually iterate over the underlying iterator to get the results of the map. So, if you want to debug print it, you still need to iterate over it regardless.

Regarding the mutability and collect issues you raised, I think I just explained poorly. What I meant is that the author could've done something like this https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&editio...

However, debug printing "on the fly" (without collection first) would definitely be more involved with interior mutability and require a wrapper type, for the reasons you outlined, but not impossible.
If you don't mind and sorry for being insensitive, why can't you just quit?

That sounds like building inspectors in the US. They vary widely in competence, but all will ensure the permit fees are paid and property taxes raised; most will ensure the work is done to code; approximately none will ensure the work is built to plan details.
Papain is notorious for it.
That's a fair point.

On reflection, whether communism holds extra appeal in poor countries, or whether it was an accident of history that *rich* capitalist countries faced off against poor communist countries, communism's chances were kind of hamstrung by this enmity. The playing field was uneven.

So which system is truly better at lifting people out of poverty, all other things being equal, remains uncertain.

One of the problems with Python packaging is Python Core Devs view “Python packaging” and “packaging Python” as two different things, but most people don’t bother with (or can’t tell) the difference :)
Cars have never been more reliable and safer, however "better" is a woefully underspecified and subjective thing.

Things I don't like about modern cars: they all look the same, crappy capacitive controls and touchscreens inside the car, constant tracking mandated by law, much harder to work on the car if you are a car enthusiast.

To me, a classic car from the 80s, or even early 90s is a far nicer vehicle to be in and drive, and provides a far better subjective experience, both in and out of the car, so in a sense, modern cars are "worse" for me.

This is not how society works. See wills.
I've never managed to successfully change that setting back on my Surface Book 2. So that may be more correct than it seems at first.
It's pretty different alright. First, there is the tile size. For current crop of desktop GPUs, tiling is primarily about cache locality (if you keep your processing spatially local you are also less likely to trash caches), but they still have very fast RAM and want to keep the triangle binning overhead to the minimum. So the tile size for desktop GPUs is much larger (if I remember correctly, it was about 128x128 pixels or something like that when I last tested it on Navi). Mobile GPUs really want to keep all of the relevant processing in the local memory entirely, so they use much smaller tiles (32x32 or even 16x16) at the expense of more involved and costly binning.

Apple (inherited from PowerVR) adds another twist on top: the rasterised pixel are not shaded immediately but instead collected in a buffer. Once all fragments in a tile are rasterised you basically have an array with visible triangle information for each pixel. Pixel shading is then simply a compute pass over this array. This can be more efficient as you only need to shade visible pixels, and it might utilise the SIMD hardware better (as you are shading 32x32 blocks containing multiple triangles at once rather than shading triangles separately), plus it radically simplifies dealing with pixels (there are never any data races for a given pixel, pixel data write-out is just a block memcpy, programmable blending is super easy and cheap to do) — in fact, I don't believe that Apple even has ROPs. There are of course disadvantages as well — it's very tricky to get right and requires specialised fixed-function hardware, you need to keep transformed primitive data around in memory until all primitives are processed (because shading is delayed), there are tons of corner cases you need to handle which can kill your performance(transparency, primitive buffer overflows etc.). And of course, many modern rendering techniques rely on global memory operations and there is an increasing trend to do rasterisation in a compute shader, where this rendering architecture doesn't really help.
It the same way that "Made in Japan" or "Made in Taiwan" used to be a label for cheap knock offs. Over time, as China shifts their economy, it will probably change, but right now "Made in China" have a certain connotation, and it becomes an easy shorthand for the disposable crap that fills our stores.

I'm still amazed seeing "x panes" windows that are supoosed to be great with a "trinkle vent"/ aka adjustable gap - at the top of them to let air in/ out!!!
I found a few Amazon listings for fake 16TB SSDs. Here's an example: https://www.amazon.com/WIOTA-External-Hard-Drive-Portable/dp... (https://web.archive.org/web/20230117092329/https://www.amazo...). It has 46 reviews and an average star rating of 4.8. Here are some of the reviews of this listing, which is definitely supposed to be an SSD:

> "These are fantastic slap bracelets. We use them as prizes at our school, and the kiddos love them! I wish there were more “boy” colors/themes, but our youngest students love them all! Great product for a great price!"

> "I hung this beautiful portrait in my kitchen. My family and I love looking at it everyday it is made well. Overall great product!"

> "This camera is really good and the mic on it works great too. Exactly what I needed. Great price aswell."

What happens is that sellers take listings for cheap, low-margin items, and build up reviews for awhile. Then they edit the listing to describe something expensive, and ship fakes. People assume it's legitimate because they see the high star rating.

Amazon makes it very difficult to report fake listings like this one, even when it's very obvious that it's fake. They also don't let users see the edit history of listings. I suspect that they're avoiding knowledge, so that if a fake item turns out to be dangerous, they can claim ignorance in court.
The slippery slope people were right!
Yeah, theres a lot of talk about how chatGPT is going to replace programmers, but it actually makes for a great partner to compare notes with. “Oh, how I was thinking of solving x this way, how did you go about it? Yep thats what I thought”

No politics, no egos.
I agree that GC languages are faster for prototyping, but this article downplays the disadvantages of GC. E.g. "deterministic destruction" is listed as a benefit of reference counting, but it really should be listed as a disadvantage of GC, since all the other memory-management methods have it.

The "leaky abstractions" argument doesn't work for me. E.g. in a Java API you don't commit (at the language level) to the ownership of passed-in or returned mutable objects. In Rust, you do, and the author claims this is a problem. I say that in fact you depend on the ownership of the referenced object either way; Rust forces you to write down what it is and enforce that the callers honor it, while in Java you cannot. Arguably therefore Rust is less leaky in that hidden assumptions are documented and enforced at the API layer.

I've had lots of good experiences refactoring Rust code. It's probably more typing than other languages but the increased assurance that you didn't break the code (especially in the presence of parallelism) more than makes up for it.
Is the author aware that the title is roughly synonym to "Adventures in Boobland"?
I'm done with boot sticks after ventoy. bought a big one and just dump multiple isos into it.
Yeah, the other thing that I should have noticed was the completely unreasonable cost of 1 TWh of energy. If 1 kWh cost about $0.15 at the time they trained the model, 1TWh would have been like $150M. Probably twice that after accounting for cooling. Doh.
Of course not once, but twice the organizing competition's architect won the architecture or town planning prize.
I feel like this is something that people said when they started using compilers instead of manually writing assembly.
Sorry if this is inappropriate.

This isn't an Einstein Ring, where gravitational lensing can make a star look like a donut.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein_ring

This is more like a ring galaxy, formation models of which usually involve a fast, dense galaxy smashing through the center of another, leaving behind a compact core and a turbulent, distant ring of active star formation.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_galaxy

Ring galaxy is an analogy. Another might be a ring of low pressure around the rapidly rising column of a mushroom cloud.

And alas, this phenomenon does not include any actual donuts... although if there's enough money at the end of the month, your next astronomy department colloquium might feature some, if you arrive early.

As the old saying goes, "Python is the second best language for everything."
One of the interesting things about MMM and borrow checking is that it enables you to implement GC and RC. Rust has RC built in of course, but the general consensus seems to be that it's "not idiomatic". There's also crates for GC. Would a Rust project that relied heavily on GC be able to sustain the sort of velocity that a project in a native-GC language had? Would it even be close?

I love Rust's developer experience, frankly. The macros and build system are the main reason I like the language. I hate the borrow checker most of the time, for exactly the reasons listed in the article. It's probably a terrible choice for a 7DRL project, unless it was some sort of Rust core with content that was primarily orchestrated from another language (possibly DSL).
My guess is this is where they announce new applications for 3rd party clients that need to pay fees and show ads
I guess a ntuple-glazed window is going to have a lot less thermal mass than a wall (though presumably depends on the wall material too – thick stone walls will have more mass than wood+plaster). But I’ve little idea what the right amount of thermal mass is for a building.
Bevy is the de-facto Rust game engine already; by any possible metric, it's at least 10x as present as any other engine.

The big question is if Rust (and its engines) will be a viable/convenient platform for commercial gaming or not; the current landscape is essentially "homebrew".

Fyrox may get some traction if commercial games will start to be produced, since it's modeled after commercial toolkits (like Unity). But given the manpower behind Bevy, nothing prevents them from adding this tooling as well (I think an editor is in development).
You will have to adjust for cognitive biases during the prediction of how soon this will become a problem and understand that it can be used retroactively. So how easy it is to actually influence you (buying a lawn mower vs getting you to engage with something in a specific way) and what the limiting factors actually are now (seeing how old much of the preceding research is). With automatically generated content, another major hurdle for usability has been falling.

To clear this up, this isnt the old approach of finding juicy details from your psychiatrists file to pressure you with. Its about learning your decision making process and finding holes in it. Its pattern and error detection and attacking/supporting your OODA-loop. What is interesting here isnt your personal shortcommings but information about how you think and what you value. And the less friction your reaction entails (you are trained to not waste money) and the less of an action you have to take (no buy button) the easier it is to go unnoticed. Especially if you are missing a review loop.

edit: The only new thing here is really you training something to attack you even better. You are creating a key to your brain and dont care who gets it. Its bad enough when metadata is used and logs of your earlier communication (like this) but a journaling AI is as bad as i can imagine. I am going to reference back to OP to what the requirements for use are for this.

edit1: If you are working on this, pls read up on Daniel Schmachtenbergers concept of Metacrisis as well as the third attractor. This can get dangerous fast and progress doesnt stop with i assume either market forces or technological availability determining the likely path forward. So that tech should better be non dystopian. I dont see any non-cooperative design not rushing us towards a great filter. It is not value neutral and a technological impact assessment is very much necessary.

Sorry for the late edits
I'd expect the insulating properties of a gas at normal temperatures and pressures to depend only on the molecular mass. That's 40 for argon, and 28 for nitrogen. This web page (https://www.pressglass.com/noble-gases-and-thermal-insulatio...) says the thermal conductivities are 0,026 W/(mK) for air and 0,018 W/(mK) for argon. 26/18 is about 1.44; 40/28 is about 1.43. So perhaps the conductivity is inversely proportional to the molecular mass? In that's true then it's not a "noble" gas you want for improved insulation, but a dense gas (so not helium). You should be using tungsten hexafluoride! OK, not really: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tungsten_hexafluoride for why not.
>The challenge was against the status. It is up to such a challenge to provide a compelling reason to change the law.

Was that done all the times copyright was retroactively increased?

>Anyone with common sense knows that copying my book is theft.

Just because we use the same language for ideas as we do for physical things. Doesn't mean they are equivalent. Calling it intellectual property doesn't magically make it property. And it is common sense that copying is theft.

Further book copying isn't theft, at least in the UK. Theft requires an intent to permanently deprive. If I copy your book I'm not permanently depriving you of it.
> In other words, CHERI can reduce memory-unsafety related slowdowns by two thirds, which is pretty incredible. AMD CPUs are even starting to have hardware support for it, bringing its run-time overhead down to 6.8%.

Source on AMD CPUs having support for CHERI-style capabilities ? Afaik, there is only the Arm Morello prototype out right now and FPGAs.
I'm sorry :(. I guess that's why it's hard, because it doesn't always turn out right. This person probably did thousands of drives in their life and only ONE of them led them to that feeling.
It's missing a third group: the ML researchers developing the LLM. I'm not sure what the best analogy in the legal world is - the politicians writing the laws?
Why does it bother you that people can live their life in a way that makes them happy and fulfills them, but it in no way infringes on how you should live your life? They'd probably be happy for you that found your one soul mate; you could be happy for them too!

I don't think this will cause a degeneration of society. If anything, the American export of "everything is us versus them" tribal mentality to politics and society is much worse. Granted, some of that always existed but I feel like it was waning until social media and exposure to American politics started reviving it. Please don't let it influence your daily life like that
If you don't mind, which country did you come from and immigrated to? :)
And if we pull of your mask we just see a scared person that thinks they are better off, if others are worse off.
This is an ambitious take. There are so many cogent counterarguments here that it's tough to choose one, but consider this:

The fundamental core of the American societal experiment was a separation from an overbearing authority in the pursuit of individual liberties. It seems clear to me that freedom to marry who you want, where you want, and how you want would be pursuant to that eidolon. Now, you don't have to agree with that core tenet, but on an empirical level _that rejection_ would be degeneration: a fall from first principals (which might not be a bad thing depending on your normative frameworks - I'm inferring that you're not a fan though).
A lot of people said they want Cargo for Python but immediately backed out when you require them to `cargo run` their program. They want `python myscript.py` to still magically work, but that’s exactly where a lot of the magic comes from. Running `python` directly is like manually invoking `rustc` (or maybe slightly more automated like a make script); it works, but is on an entirely different layer of abstraction and doesn’t fit well with the Cargo one.

I’m not trying to imply you’re one of those people, but this may provide some insight why “Cargo for Python” is not a more widely adopted workflow.
> … could impact your brain function negatively.

Brain function being negatively impacted is not scary on its own and not necessarily permanent.

I didn’t mean to scare you. It’s likely you are confusing the above phrase with “your brain will be altered forever” which is not what it means.
OK, do you intend to say why?
I think mild ASD, at least for me, can be just as bad. It depends on person to person; Its a spectrum for a reason.

No one in my childhood and teenage years had the idea that I was 'different'. However, I was constantly gaslighted that I was, for example, too rude to look people straight in the eye, shake hands, kiss all people on a family birthday (yuck) or that I was lazy because I really needed an hour of rest after school or work instead of doing household chores immediately.

I never fully met all the social norms, my siblings did, and was therefore a bit of the black sheep in the family. According to my (loving) parents everything was my own choice, and of course in a sense it is, so in the end I fully believed that too. It took some time to rebuild my self-image.
It's an immensely visual title in its description.

That probably depends on where you are. Here in Amsterdam, our triple glazing is made out of all actual glass. In our house it’s made out of four 6-mm sheets of glass actually. So one double sheet that’s a sandwich with a glued layer of foil in between (like a windshield), used as a security component either on the outside (anti break-in) or on the upper floors on the inside as a way to prevent falling through the window.

> I've never seen a motherboard supporting anything else than FAT for an UEFI partition.

I've seen exactly one model line, that does support NTFS in UEFI: Intel NUCs. It was quite nice, but nobody preparing boot media can rely on the availability, as the only mandatory filesystem is FAT32.
For me, the appeal of the C64 is that it was documented very well in the standard reference manual, which was thoughtfully spiral bound and only about 300 pages long. It included a detailed hardware schematic, the complete assembly language and machine codes, the BASIC language, explanations of how to use every component chip like the SID and video chips, and many example programs. The whole machine could be understood very thoroughly and programmed by a child, even with no access to additional materials, although I gobbled up magazines and books about the C64 as fast as I could.

The RPi is fantastic, but it's far too complex to be described down to the machine code level in only 300 pages. I don't think even a million pages would describe the RPi to the same level as what we had with a C64. Of course, by modern standards, a new machine similar to the C64 (without the keyboard) would be rightfully called a small microcontroller and sell for less than $1.
