I moved from Russia to the US; capitalism is certainly better in the latter than the former. Besides that, there's also the question of social and political freedoms, which is largely orthogonal to economic systems; you can and we do have brutal capitalist dictatorships, and there are democratic socialist polities (e.g. Rojava). I'm also no fan of USSR and authoritarian socialism in general, but the choices aren't limited to that vs capitalism.

In any case, to reiterate, the point is that for it to be a compromise, we should all be aware of the nature of that compromise - that is, who is giving up what exactly, and for whose sake. It is only a true compromise if people knowingly choose to preserve it, because they feel that it's the best deal that they can get.
Before making such an effort in thought were you even aware of such a subculture?

I get why you might not want to participate in the those things but the point that Trads as a counterculture phenomenon are new and distinct from the previous mainline Protestant or evangelical Christian cultural movements.

It's not clear Russia is better at any of that, it's that Russia has land-based launch systems they can use in the war they started, whereas the US can't easily loan Ukraine an entire sea or air-launched system (particularly because the current logic still tends towards "no weapons which could hit Moscow easily).

Ukraine is not the United States military, and is not being armed with its full complement of weapons for very specific diplomatic reasons. Whereas Russia has been free to unload all it's conventional weapons as it sees fit.
I'm a pure math PhD who likes to solve difficult and open-ended technical problems. My academic focus was on quantum topology and topological quantum computing. Since graduating in 2019, I've primarily done documentation, kernel, and parser/compiler work for a P2P operating system. I am particularly interested in quantum computing positions, but am open to hearing about opportunities to work in any kinds of technical problem domain that has room for creative mathematical approaches. Looking for research or back-end engineering positions. I am not interested in defense contractors, finance, or ad/surveillance tech.

Being LGBTQ is one of the few identities or choices that will result in being disowned by a significant portion of American families. That attitude is edging out of the mainstream but it’s practically dogma among evangelicals and other socially conservative groups. So yes, those people do live in a different reality, where Biden admin policy and “Will and Grace” don’t matter at all.
The author spends a whole paragraph talking about this category of techniques:

> Slightly more objectionable, but still mostly reasonable, examples of computational photography are those which try to make more creative use of available information. For example, by stitching together multiple dark images to try to make a brighter one. (Dedicated cameras tend to have better-quality but conceptually similar options like long exposures with physical IS.) However, we are starting to introduce the core sin of modern computational photography: imposing a prior on the image contents. In particular, when we do something like stitch multiple images together, we are making an assumption: the contents of the image have moved only in a predictable way in between frames. If you’re taking a picture of a dark subject that is also moving multiple pixels per frame, the camera can’t just straightforwardly stitch the photos together - it has to either make some assumptions about what the subject is doing, or accept a blurry image.

Their point is that it's not magic; these techniques rely on assumptions about the subject being photographed. As soon as those assumptions no longer hold, you start getting weird outputs.

In Germany they had the Green party, once upon a time that was a gathering point of those who were against 'the establishment'. Now the Green party is a major political party, and pretty much part of that same establishment.

I guess that something similar happened with the techies. Some of those weird nerds became very rich - and that's quite popular with the general public.

And then came twitter, that one killed both the radio star and the TV presenter. And than came Elon - the king of the nerds - and he is killing twitter :-)
4chan is almost 20 years old, it may have been a countercultural element but I assure you kids these days are not on the chans like they once were. If it is still a cultural touchpoint for males 18-24 it is unlikely to remain so for much longer. Your yardstick for cultural relevance centered around creative AI usage is myopic when compared to the interests of actual younger humans who presumably would make up the counterculture.

What is hilarious is that by your definition it is concevable that the increasingly old men who continue to use 4chan could infact be the counterculture you seek... so in 60 years they will all be dead anyway (vax or no vax)

What did I make an equivalence between? Large codebases are hard, period. That is all I am saying. Having worked on 100k LOC systems in static and in dynamic, I will not claim either has a benefit. That is just hard.

Static analysis is, of course, good. If that is static typing or otherwise. So is running the code making sure it does what you want when running.

What is not a huge help, is a byzantine type hierarchy that nobody understands. Which is all too familiar to me from any codebase I have worked on with folks that dived straight into the type system before they knew what they were doing in the system.

Many strong type proponents have moved to the categories view. If you know the category type of what you are doing, the idea is that that will prevent bugs. But... that hasn't been my experience. Often it just hides what is actually happening behind another layer of jargon. Jargon that is not native to the problem being solved.

> JavaScript goes one step further though, and has no distinction between get-item accesses and attribute accesses.

Can you explain a bit more about what you mean here?

> Is it even possible to implement your own `MutableMapping` or `dataclasses` equivalent type in Python?

Of course. With dataclasses that's what Python itself does; that's a pure Python module:

https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/3.11/Lib/dataclasses....

For MutableMapping, Python currently implements it as a C class for speed, but you could implement the same functionality in pure Python. That's what earlier versions of the collections.abc module did.

> I know the latter requires custom plugins.

I don't know what you mean here. See the pure Python module that Python itself provides above.

“No programming language tells you if a program is correct at compile time” is technically true, but my experience is that about 99% of the refactors I do in rust, no matter how large, go back to working correctly as soon as the code compiles again. I don't think anything like this is possible in a language like python.

Normally Windows apps can call SetThreadExecutionState to request the screensaver not come on. Video players do this, as do some other apps. See here[1] for a Powershell script that does just this, for example.

I don't really have an aim, I just made a simple statement, and after that everything is back and forth. Classification of languages has no practical implication (or not too much), what it changes is how they are taught, like "INTRO TO PROGRAMMING 101 BEGINNER CLASS FOR DUMMIES"

I just wanted to say that i dont think it's important to decide if HTML is an actual programming language or not, I see it as a language that defines something for a computer. We can just put all alikes into the "Markup-not-programming-language" basket, and that invalidates all of my arguments. I feel in this case there is no big difference in functional/imperative vs declarative languages assuming most of the people's different-than-mine classification, so why even bother then?

To get cryptographically grade randomness you can use one of these C functions:

*BSD, newer macOS, and GNU libc: int getentropy(void *buffer, size_t length);

Linux 3.19+: ssize_t getrandom(void *buf, size_t buflen, unsigned int flags);

iOS and macOS 10.7+: int SecRandomCopyBytes(SecRandomRef, size_t, uint8_t *);

Fuchsia: void zx_cprng_draw(void* buffer, size_t buffer_size);

Any *nix: Read from "/dev/random" (or "/dev/urandom" under the assumption that your system has already enough entropy).

Windows: There are different functions/libraries depending on the Windows version and some of them are a complicated multi-step mess.

Some time ago I wrote a C library that abstracts that away just for fun: https://github.com/panzi/portable_get_random*
It’s not a surprise to anyone who has studied show business at all. The Boscht belt and its associated Jewish entertainment circuit was a critical incubator of talent for our nations popular music.

No one is hiding any of this, and it’s trivial to read a memoir from many musicians and see a story about how they wanted to feel more included in the increasingly secularized holidays so they wrote music that was about the stuff that included in them.
> I agree, it's stupid to pay $20 for something you can get for 2 cents

I don't follow this logic. In this case everything that is currently sold for 2 cents can also be sold for $20, because "it is not an amount of money worth thinking about" (at least for some people).

Everyone glosses over the fact that all of these "open" radios are dependent on very much closed "source" and often expensive hardware. The RF signal chains, whether ZIF or Direct, are by far the hardest part to design and manufacture. I would love to see some truly open source hardware (that's not RTL-based; that's basically just software that happens to be compile-able into logic gates). I think it's going to take at least another generation before the semiconductor industry evolves beyond the intense secrecy.

There's certainly an argument to be made that for a case like this, the hardware being open matters a lot less, but I really think the global community would benefit from more transparent and shared Analog/RF circuit design.

Does anyone know of any studies on how the proliferation of MBA degrees has affected universities in this way, or other industries in similar ways? That is, the ballooning of administrative roles to the detriment of the student/consumer and core employees who produce the real value for a company/university/etc? I thought I read somewhere in the last year about how the proliferation of MBA degrees result in the lowering of workers’ wages, but little other benefit…

> On the contrary, noticing that real wages increased for the poorest 40% may motivate policies like a universal income / citizen dividend.

Its an interesting argument but it has already been seen in America where neo-libs and the GOP have shifted most of the blame for inflation to the stimulus checks, so I doubt it.

> Perhaps a higher steady state inflation is necessary, 4% instead of 2%, to keep unemployment low and real wages rising for the poorest.

The only way I could see higher inflation leading to higher wages is worse material conditions leading to more workers fighting for higher wages. Unless there's some weird economics at play, I don't see any other reason why inflation would increase wages, and if that is the reason, I'm not going to support any platform that only works because it increases misery.

> Have you considered what happened to the wealthiest 1% as inflation fears led to increased interest rates?

Yes, they saw a small adjustment in net worth down 7% at the beginning of 2022, although that seems to have flattened out since then, and real wages have only increased since early 2021, when they fell ~1% in Q1 2021. I'm not sure what you'd do with this, because increasing interest rates reduces inflation, which works against your (since you don't like the word argument) idea that we should keep inflation higher.
So what you are saying is it's not worth $20, for now.
