The bugs have mostly been fixed, and it's cheaper than most 4.5 gen fighters (they're building a lot of them so the unit cost drops significantly) while being significantly more capable (see the ridiculous numbers it puts up at Red flag).

People have also learned that a lot of the "experts" that criticized it were extremely noncredible (eg. Pierre Sprey) and are spouting nonsense that hasn't been true since before the Vietnam war (eg. Relevance of dogfighting and guns in air combat).

Does anyone seriously think the F-35A is not technically as-good-as or superior to the Typhoon on a number of axes? If it's similar in cost to the Typhoon, it seems like a no-brainer. Of course the "If" is doing a lot of work which is why TFA was so focused on whether or not the costs in the contracts were reasonable.

I've listened to Sirius in several environments across many years, spanning most of its existence. In just about every case, I found the audio quality to be intolerably terrible. This is in multiple cars in different years. Curiously, I've noticed a strain of people that claim that it sounds good. Sometimes, I've been in the same car with them at the same time, listening to the same thing. I can't account for it. I'm generally not an audio snob, but satellite radio sounds so bad, I can't stand it at all. I'd rather have silence.

I'm not sure the underlying reason for this, but I guess some people just hear differently.

SNAP has outperformed FB/META basically every period since Q1 2018, though. If anything, the time to sell out was after the pandemic run-up, in Q3/Q4 2021: SNAP had gained ~365% since the beginning of 2020 versus ~85% for FB/META.
Yeah, true, but I meant the power necessary to make it happen, rather than the tendency toward corruption.
Open source doesn't necessary mean that the code has to be share publicly on the internet, let alone on a GitHub repo! This is a common misconception. You can of course also decide to sell an open source software, that is have other pay you to obtain the software source code with an open source license (of course this person then can share the code, or even sell it to others legally, so it's not commonly done).

I can put a MIT or even a GPL license in a private repository that I have at my company. The meaning is that I don't release the source code, tough if one of my employees wants to take it and use it he can, and he can also decide to share it with other people, or put it on a public repo.

Why I don't want to put the repo public? Maybe I'm just lazy, I don't see too much value in the code, I don't want to write documentation, tests, whatever, I don't consider it of enough value, whatever, still I don't have problems with people that have access to the code that they use it, and share it if they want.

In something like your example, the what is obvious. But I've seen a lot of code where the what is not at all obvious, and a comment succinctly summing or breaking it down up would help drive the understanding.

The way is useful in addition to that, and often IME far more important than the what. IMO you should document both, as necessary, and that's the hard part/skill. You have to treat it like you won't remember it in 6 months, because in 6 months, you won't. A lot of devs don't do that.

(A fair number of devs won't follow the style guide / idiomatic patterns of a language if there isn't a CI check forcing them to, and will argue to all ends with a human as to why it ought not apply to them, to the great detriment of their code's readability to other experience practitioners of the language. Oddly CI enforcement usually works better, why I don't know.)
After all, those gods don’t have any more followers to complain about you using their name in vain.
my take is going all out socialized health care isn't the answer.

you need to socialize basic care that benefits everyone e.g maternal care, wounds etc, sprains etc so that you always have workers available in the economy. and that productivity doesn't go down because people have chronic conditions.

then privatize the special things e.g plastic surgery for the instagram influenzas, people that need special care that goes beyond what the social healthcare system provides etc.

having the gvt responsible for all the healthcare can go amiss as we see in the uk - it just takes one administration to gut the whole system.

I'm not from the UK and don't have a horse in the race, but a lot of people from the UK have been coming to where I live (Thailand) to receive medical care since I have lived here (more than 20 years) to escape the wait times. The few I spoke with definitely did not call NHS a beacon.

My few conversations are certainly anecdotal. However, the numbers of UK medical tourists isn't; it was around 4,000 in 2010 and estimated to be around that number each year, according to this paper [1], although it acknowledges the number is underestimated.

> there would be a frame of reference in which you arrive before you left

There would be a frame of reference in which you appear to arrive before you left.

The analogy is with a sonic boom, where an observer using only sound for sensing the world would hear the plane arriving before it left.

This does not allow closed timelike loops, the type that would allow you to predict the stockmarket.

The observers can't create paradoxes through via a third observer with a high celerity in the same way that QM "action at a distance" doesn't allow causality violations either, or how moving a laser pointer across the surface of the moon doesn't allow FTL motion either.

It just looks like it does, that doesn't mean that it actually does.

PS: I'm fully aware that in the SR/GR model, appearance is reality, and hence the paradox within the framework of relativity. Clearly, if FTL were allowed, then relativity would be falsified by that, and a new framework would be required. I'm saying that that framework could be consistent, allowing FTL and relativity without allowing travel backwards in time.
I wish Obama would have outlawed employer provided healthcare.
GitHub doesn't allow you to make a public fork of a private repo, either. When you make a fork of a private repo, the resulting repo is constrained to have no broader access than the original.

a lot of the debate always centers around the policies of the healthcare system but I think it's good that the article at the end also spells out a very obvious point, Americans are much sicker than many other countries.

A complicated and expensive healthcare system does certainly not help, but there isn't enough talk about how obesity, diabetes, chronic pain, infections and other conditions are linked and mutually reinforcing. Even infant mortality which always is cited in the US is much higher in obese women.

People can marvel at Singapore's technocracy and how efficient their healthcare is but also, you won't see that many unhealthy people there as you do in many other industrialized countries, and that shaves countless billions off the budget by itself. In many rich countries we seem to be completely unwilling to discuss or we even create taboos around how to improve population health.
Flexible array members are commonly supported as an extension in C++ compilers, but the C++ standard itself does not permit them. And FWIW `extern "C"` doesn't drop a C++ compiler into a "C mode", it merely effects linkage (i.e. name mangling); all the code within the scope must still be valid, compiler-supported C++. Your example code compiles the same without the extern "C" declaration. And it compiles the same if main is also placed within the extern "C" scope; but not the headers, as C++ constructs like templates cannot have C linkage.

Probably because the original terms you agreed to were written not anticipating Salesforce perpetrating this and so while I would not at all be surprised if the vast majority of customers in your position would've been entirely happy with it they probably didn't have a legal path to do so.

I mean, I get what you are aiming for. HTML, though, is a markup language. You can call it declarative, but you don't get anything other than the HTML that you create. That is, it is not generating anything. You type what you get. Put differently, it is not a program.

SQL is far and away understood as a declarative language for what data you want out of a relational database. I challenge you to find any literature that does not describe it as a declarative language.

Now, can we munge definitions and pull in an odd true scotsman argument about it not being a "true declarative" language? I mean, yeah. But, this is like arguing that LISP is not a functional language by some specific modern view of that term. Certainly true, but far from useful. And almost certainly not what anyone you would talk to expects from those terms.
Yep, I was one of them.

The F-22 can go faster and further than the F-35. It's also more maneuverable and a touch stealthier. (The F-35 has better tech, is cheaper to build and operate and can carry more armament.)

Sure thing. My brother needed to go to a psychiatric hospital, and of course it's very difficult to be involuntarily committed.

We got him there in the end, mostly due to the enduring support of his partner.

My lesson from that was that, with the right support, and a bit of patience, people can get the help they need.

Takes a bit of time though. I think in the vast majority of cases if we offer a job to anyone who wants one at a socially inclusive minimum wage doing work in their community, in addition to stable housing, within a few years they'll be doing better, and within a generation the negative impacts of involuntary unemployment and homelessness will be a relic of the past.

Ask HN: Are browser bookmarks dead? What alternative(s) do you use?
For some reason, browsers have yet not implemented a way to __search__ through bookmarks. They also have no user-friendly means of __managing__ bookmarks. I often find myself creating nested folders of bookmarks and I wish there was a way to treat bookmarks as __files__ in a folder. I find the complexity of bookmarks systems prohibitive, and am wondering if there's a better way to keep favorite/important webpages for later use.

It's not necessarily how remarkable it is, it's more about not exporting your absolute most advanced technologies because it's more likely for a future adversary to gain access to it, and thus learn how copy it or defeat it.

> ...which you can still trivially do if you use git to make the copy.

If you want to steal code from your former employer it's your business and your legal jeopardy. GitHub can't do anything about that. They can remove access to the copies they're storing for you, though.

GitHub has a weird model where they encourage using the same account for personal and professional work, which causes this kind of ambiguity. From their perspective, there isn't a real difference between forking a private repo and making a private copy of a shared Google doc in your work account.
How useful is OpenAI's new AI detection tool?
Of course it’s plausible. Literally anything to do with contracts or legal in a corp like Salesforce is plausible.
My guess would be that a tiny percentage of accounts didn't get their notices sent, nobody complained about it because they didn't realise they were supposed to be getting them (or at least for whatever reason no such complaints were escalated to the people who would go "oh shit" upon seeing one) and some unfortunate combination of technical factors meant whatever internal monitoring existed didn't pick up the omissions.

Note that this is not to say the end result wasn't an indefensible disaster, only that disasters seldom have only a single cause and the above is my best uneducated guess at how things came together to cause this one.
Why is classified speed so important? Couldn't it be aproximated with a sort of Doomsday Argument approach?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doomsday_argument
Yes, because GitHub doesn't support organization users (maybe you have to pay?) so the thing is that you use your personal account. That is fine, since the real account is the membership to the organization. The only thing is the stuff of private repo: if there is this unintuitive behaviour it shouldn't be allowed to fork private repositories at all.

Or the fork should not be deleted, but it should be made in a way that it's equivalent to a pull and then push to another repo, that is if you loose access to the original private repo you can still see your code, but you can no longer pull from the upstream private repo. I think this is a problem on how data/permissions is represented at low level in a repo, so if this is the case and cannot be fixed they shouldn't allow private repo fork at all.
Our ability to diagnose those things is also improving yearly...

>This is exactly what SQL is. There are exceptions, but they're exceptions.

no, i meant the query is literally this: GIVE ME ALL THE COST OF THE EMPLOYEES

or if we want to formalize more:
ALL COST OF ALL EMPLOYEES

the point here that in a declarative mindset EMPLOYEE is a word that SQL server understands, like HTML understand paragraph <p> or table with rows and cells <table><tr><td>

>I don't think you have a correct model of SQL. SQL is a language that expresses definitions, not functions. It is absolutely declarative.

that just not true. without defining the how through transformations and conditions, the only thing you get out of the sql server is a table how it is stored. until you reach a certain complexity you are true, it can be seen as declarative, but my point here, is the approach of problem solving is the separation here. you dont even have to speak about computers:

cooking recipe VS assembly lines in factories VS a robot with ai, which can do whatever is programmed to, but in certain cases work out the details by itself when not given specifically (not the best example, but started to get exhausted)

Also how would you say that by nature HTML and SQL is the same?
Just, what? This sounds terrible. Why can't you run a test query against a large dataset? If need be, anonymize your data set into an integ environment, and go nuts. Could there be a data combination that surprises you someday? Certainly. Most queries, though, are much much simpler than that and can, in fact, be tested.
This is because forking is a social feature. If the origin repo is unwilling to accept pull requests from you, there's no reason to let you fork.
