For example livers arent made up just liver cells (hepatocytes) there are 3 other major cell types.

In vitro heptacytes are commonly used today to measure metabolism and toxicity and you get a lot of good info, but they dont substitute an actual liver.

General reminder that an SLA is a contractual agreement, and not a guarantee of availability. It literally describes the renumeration due when the service doesn't meet the promised availability.
with basic authentication, you cannot embed the decryption key into the url via a hash fragment.

This means you must have a secondary channel to communicate to the user about the password, and the server must also know the password.

So depending on your use-case, the basic auth isn't suitable. For example, mega : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mega_(service) , in which you want to ensure that the decrypted data is _not_ accessible to the server, so the key is not stored nor sent to the server!
Gas leaks from distribution are something to consider too.
NYC underground water pipes are very old and run at low pressure. Buildings above a certain height need to pump water to roof and then gravity feed it.

If you search NYC water tanks on YouTube there are some good documentaries of the companies that build them.
The latter. These tanks are still supplied by the municipal water system but storing it in the tanks allow for consistent water pressure in tall buildings.

The problem I have is the lack of transparency, obtuse terms and the huge amount of funds taken in by the bigger operations that instead of being transformed into moar infra, get turned into exec bonuses/lobbying to not have to build infra/marketing to convince people the infra that was built is the best that's possible, yes sirree Bob.

> If a work of fiction is changed to not imply women are meant to stay at home and men are meant to go to work, doesn't that show that, to those offended, on some level those implications are core to what makes that work that work?

The problem is that Dahl’s work isn’t an essay, or a treatise. It’s whimsical. It’s art! The words chosen, were chosen because they were the words that worked.

Say these two extracts out loud:

> “You mean Prince Pondicherry?” said Grandpa Joe, and he began chuckling with laughter. “Completely dotty, said Grandpa George. “But very rich,” said Grandma Georgina

> “You mean Prince Puducherry?” said Grandpa Joe, and he began chuckling with laughter

They mean essentially the same thing, but they feel quite different. The rhythm of “Prince Pondicherry” has a bounce to it, “Prince Puducherry” is more like walking down hill.

D isn't a good substitute for C due to its garbage collector.

Yes, people always chime in about how you can disable D's garbage collector, but then you're stuck with an awkward language that lacks support for basic things like exceptions, closures, strings, slices, and a host of other features not to mention pretty much any third party library.

If you are willing to accept a GC then D might be a good choice, if you find it fun then by all means go for it, but it's no longer so clear cut at that point given the wealth of GC'd programming languages available.
A "decent" iron makes soldering much, much easier. Decent in my eyes being: has a semi-accurate temperature setting, reasonable wattage, and quick temperature recovery. This lets beginners keep the heat "low" without having issues when using small tips or soldering to the ground plane.

In the last few years though, the price for "decent" has dropped a lot. Like the Pinecil is honestly a solid option despite the awful ergonomics. And, if you're only soldering for 15-30m at a time, the ergos aren't going to be a huge issue.
PageCrypt is excellent. I wrote a tutorial a while back on Reddit about how to use it for password-protected Anki cards. Just to give that extra layer of security.
If it's anything like my small Canadian province rents are astronomical for a small quite town. Often $1,200 for a one bedroom apartment. We're a tourist town and many homes have been bought up by people running short term rental or STR.

There was a town meeting and one owner of several buildings called in to complain that any regulation would hurt her business. She was calling while on vacation at Lake Como Italy. The sense of entitlement was thick.

Many so-called "reno-victions" are common. Oh that wall needs paint? Gotta evict you with 14 days notice. Good luck finding anywhere else to live since it's a 0.1% vacancy rate on a good day 0% most.

There's no damn breakfast either since there's no owner there it's just a way to get around paying the taxes that hotels do.
Right, but the IRS likely already knows all the information that goes on those 20 pages (or at least most of it), and could prepare your return for you, and just send you an email that lets you approve or amend it.
Sometimes you start off with a budget of $1k in the outskirts of town and have to just do with what your options are to be a functional member of society.

I was able to do my due diligence and bought an old Volvo, and we knew a mechanic who specialized in Volvos, but even if it's not an expensive repair like a timing belt, the repairs will still be more frequent. And I think this situation will get worse for the next generation as it's more common to have proprietary parts and tooling, drastically increasing the cost of repairs as time goes on (which also makes self repairs a lot more difficult).
Not necessarily. You can solve the same problems over and over again, but do better every time. No need to change language. Just improve every time.
Go to a developing country and its worse, way worse.

Not to say it isnt worth trying to fix.

Beware of working in a passionate industry. You will get treated like shit and there's nothing you can do about it. Someone else would gladly take that work for half or even free.

Other it businesses can't do this shit without suffering heavily, but game studios can because passionate works will be willing to join.

There are exceptions, but those are exceptions for a reason.
Then you aren't talking to enough people. There are plenty who believe that easy tax filing will also make it easier for the government to raise taxes in the future. And enough who just flat-out believe the government shouldn't be doing things that a private enterprise can do for a profit.
> Also I physically shuddered when I saw the word template. Did no one learn from C++ mistakes?

While we might disagree on a lot of semantical things on this, I'd argue that D very much learned from those mistakes. There's a strong argument for D's templates to be "templates done right" (which C++'s most certainly aren't).

So I encourage you to read more into this topic. To me, this question seems just about as uninformed as someone complaining about a LISP tutorial on macros, asking "did no one learn from the mistake that is the C preprocessor?".

If/where there are other models better suited for metaprogramming would be another (interesting) discussion (full of tradeoffs, I'm sure), but the notion of proper (hygienic?) templates not being adequate anywhere can certainly not be inferred from C++'s implementation alone.

Uncle Pete vindicated again. Hopefully this thesis will be something more than a few people will agree with him on.
Well, I qualify by your definition. I just did a lot of it, starting sometime around 1981. I wasn't trying to learn programming per se, but actually trying to solve problems with it.

What I suggest is find some other interest that forces you to program. That way, the problems come from the subject matter, and you can't avoid the things that are hard. My interests were math, science, and electronics.

> pointing out that Jewish people are heavily involved in the media isn't inherently anti-semitic

'Jews are controlling the media' isn't antisemitic? 'der Stuermer' was depicting caricature Jews with long noses just for the fun of it? And yes, fictional conspiracies were a big deal in antisemitic propaganda - 'the protocols of the elders of zion' is just an example.

Couldn't agree more @seandoe.

It's also incredibly insulting and disrespectful to Dahl to meddle with his work.

The endless critiquing & editing types should instead write new books and see if anyone's interested in their 'new' ideas.

It all reminds me of the 1980's era of putting antibiotics in plastic children's toys in case they might chew on them and get 'contaminated' by germs. We have to build up resistance along with critical reasoning skills but there's lots of evidence the kids just built up a lot of resistance to the antibiotics and the germs were good at building up immunities.

In the Victorian era 'Father Christmas' was conceptually green, skinny and 'good'. His opposite was Krampus who was bad, with lots of scary images of him carrying off terrified children.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krampus

Over time Coca cola et al made Santa's imagery fat, jolly, 'unopposed' and therefore meaningless, and now that tradition is reduced to a saccharin sweet gift giving orgy to children.

We are having similar conceptual erasure imposed on us in so many areas of society this decade and it is not going to end well.

Interesting, can you share some images, or a paper on this?

Btw I've tried some online image enhancers on a random painted image and it was not amazing, it did enhance some parts but not really by much. I'm sure specialized systems can do much better when the input image is made by the same source as the training set.

I use a deeply modified fork of this every day. My changes have been:

1. Rewrite the backend in Go (I'm nkt qualified to audit the C version, and having Web Stuff™ interact directly with an unaudited C filesystem daemon makes my skin crawl)

2. Modularize it quite a bit to make it easier to add endpoints like...

3. Rudimentary Tree-Style Tabs support

4. Desperately try to improve the performance enough to navigate a sizable session (I have not yet succeeded)

Even after all this, I've come to the conclusion that the relationship is backwards: the filesystem representation needs to drive the browser, not the other way around.

It's my considered opinion that some hero needs to step up and build a browser that exists to render one tab and nothing else, shelling out for everything more complex than scrolling. Then the power users cwn supply their own tab/bookmark/window/filesystem schemes using whatever glue they prefer, be it python, node, shell scripts, Windows Explorer...

A man's car breaks down in the desert; he's rescued and taken back to his rich rescuer's oasis household. The rich man has a beautiful daughter and equally beautiful wife. A female sneaks into his room over two successive nights and they enjoy wild and ecstatic sex before she sneaks out again, identity unknown. The man cannot figure out whether it's the wife or daughter he has slept with and he's dying to know. On leaving, the rich man discloses to him that he has another daughter who has remained secluded and is the reason why they live far from society. To his horror, the rescued man realises that he has spent the last two nights in physical communion with ... a Covid sufferer!

> You kind of just bang your head against the keyboard until it starts to compile, and run, and stay running

I'm glad I learned to program when computer time was costly (at least, for me, in terms of access time not in terms of money). I actually had to think about what I wanted my programs to do, design, consider. Not bash my head against a keyboard and pray like you did. This forced me to develop a model of the computer, language, and operating system that was fairly accurate (to the level of detail I needed at the time).
>High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). You would think a codec first published 10 years ago is included in a modern operating system...

That's the problem. It's going to be another decade before a patent that age will expire.

To avoid this kind of thing, at any point in time people need to concentrate on using either codecs of the past which are no longer encumbered, or codecs for the future intended to never be encumbered.

Oh, yes, this is such a good point.

I spent a few years cleaning hotel rooms and, in hindsight, I did some of the best programming work of my life during that time. In part because I would find insights into a problem by analogizing it to cleaning hotel rooms (many of the fundamental problems are the same, just in a different context), and in part because cleaning rooms is mostly automatic, physical, mindless work and it bought me 8-10 hours a day where I could just think about whatever I was working on at home. That taught me the value of letting your mind "wander" into solutions when you can't reason into one.
Mastery is not a binary state.

Either you have the skills to solve the problem at hand in a satisfactory way or you don't - but where exactly that line is is different for every problem.

One can display mastery over one set of problems and simultaneously have no mastery over another - maybe you know everything that can possibly be done using a tree data structure, but have never even heard of a bitmap.

Don't worry about "mastering programming" but rather worry about having sufficient knowledge of the right tools to solve the problem you need to solve.
I don't want to manage physical money, and would prefer to not pay any fees.

Crypto is perfect for this in a of ways, but has the downside of price volatility.

Stablecoins like USDC have some of these advantages, but huge downside in having to trust an org to back the coin and manage that. A CBDC would be like a stablecoin without any of that risk.
I often hear people use SLA and SLO interchangeably. Very annoying having to clarify.
Programming isn't really the problem, most of the time.

Understanding the problem at hand such that it can be broken down into smaller and smaller chunks is really the problem.

After that it is refinements for robustness, maintainability, speed, size and so on, depending on the application, platform, language and approach.

The mastery defines the difference between a workable solution and an elegant solution.
