Because it's nicer. The mental model of reading the functions using signals is; it's all about initialize|constructor|new function. And then those off-jsx stuff starts to make sense since you won't re-initialize those things. They need to exist somewhere in particular execution model. In Solidjs, it's effects (compiled from jsx where signals are read). I think those who are familiar with static type languages, naturally understand how signals needs to be unwrap/wrap .. like a monoid, not a big deal.

I find super determinism fascinating too. It's not really scientific because it's ultimately untestable. I just like the idea that the universe is whole, compete from end to end and time is just another axis through it. In my interpretation I'm not traveling through time but just exist in each moment of time thinking that I'm traveling through it because I remember the last moment. It's not a belief, just a thought.

I've always referred to and heard these referred to as "events" and "sequences" with d/e being subtypes of either or containing additional contexts.

I'm not sure what you mean by "Rx" in this context.

My background is much more in the systems (and indeed, "signals" in the theoretical sense).

I still think the name "signal" here is quite bad, since it's the abstract concept of something-that-carries-information

But we observe a random phenomena and call that wave function collapses, we don't observe many worlds. Many worlds is outside of observation, it is an additional feature of the universe that isn't based on any observations.
> Just one word of warning: You’d need not just a cruise ship but a time machine to visit some of the stops listed on its “13 wonders of the world” list, which includes places like the Lighthouse of Alexandria, the Colossus of Rhodes, the Temple of Artemis at Ephesus and the statue of Zeus at Olympia – all of which were destroyed in antiquity.

Is this a joke? This thinly-veiled promotional advertising masquerading as an article also admits that the destinations listed on the official website is false?
You see that a lot around distilleries everywhere. Any vehicle you work on that's kept at a distillery, whisky bond, or blend house, will be absolutely covered in grotty black shit.

It rots bricks like crazy, and in Dumbarton a little to the west of Glasgow in Scotland people have semi-successfully attempted to sue some large drinks companies because of the damage it has done to houses.

Now, the distillers reckon it doesn't rot bricks, but I've put communications aerials up on their buildings. They build things like the security gatehouse out of "engineering bricks", very hard and strong bricks used for things like manholes. These bricks are normally very hard to drill, especially with something like a 16mm SDS for fitting M10 rawlbolts to support an aerial pole.

I could practically poke the holes in the bricks with my finger. It was like drilling stale chocolate cake.
Sure — but that’s already substantially back-pedaling from “the ends justify the means” as a general policy.

And by that same argument, arbitrarily lynching some of the corrupt actors — despite knowing that everyone is operating in such gray areas and such things are necessary — is the counterbalancing force to that necessary corruption. The tension and friction which makes it work. You define the gray area through those prosecutions at the edges.

Each foray into the gray zone becomes a risk — and so only the necessary ones are made, rather than normalizing a culture of corruption.

Without that, you have all slip and no stick, so the machine falls apart. Which is what we see in the US IC (and businesses): too much lubricating corruption; not enough punishment. Taken too far “out of tolerance”, the machine becomes broken or even dangerous to keep operating — and so must be replaced entirely.

If you want to tell me you have the wisdom to operate in such gray areas, then you should be aware of that necessary reality too.
AFAIK - IANAL, and in California only - that's not covered under the non-compete stuff, it's covered under the value-of-sold-goods stuff, even if it's also mentioned as a specific exception to non-competes.

CA blocks non-competes b/c you can't prevent someone from using their skills to make a living.

Poaching clients back undermines the value of the thing you _just_ sold.

It might be different if/when it's not a voluntary sale, and I bet there's ways to contract out of it - I've certainly idly daydreamed about clauses along the lines of "if you fuck up the product I just sold you enough, I can make it again and you can't stop me" - but TBH that probably just ends up as a "can't release a competing product within a year".

NIV is a translation though. Having different translations is a normal thing. Having different originals not so much.
Seems like an easy experiment then? Drop coffee and tea for a while and see if they return.
It wasn’t meant to come across as passive aggressive. When I make a statement that contradicts the original post, I try to be mindful and human. Instead of saying ‘you’re blatantly wrong’ I am hoping to not come across as a rude guy on internet. I’ll probably explore other ways.
Airpods Pro are not exclusively reliant on active noise cancellation to reduce noise alone-- the tips seal in your ear canal and provide passive isolation as well, similar to how earplugs or conventional IEMs (in-ear monitors) work. AirPods are not rated as earplugs and I wouldn't suggest relying on them alone to prevent hearing damage in loud environments (buy real earplugs for that), but they will provide some reduction in the noise that reaches your ears even when turned off.

Also, active noise cancellation does actually cancel noise (it's not some kind of psychological effect making noise "invisible"); sound is a pressure wave and ANC works by moving air in the opposite direction to eliminate or reduce that pressure wave-- the mechanical energy from that sound is not reaching your ear drum if you don't hear it. This doesn't work perfectly, of course (the higher the frequency, the harder it is to eliminate with ANC for a bunch of acoustic and processing-related reasons), but, generally, if you're not hearing it, it's not reaching your eardrums and it's not doing damage.
Yes it does. I think with wfh initiatives in COVID a lot of people who previously where oblivious to ringing are hearing it.
Blurbs affect you even if you think they don’t. They’re funny like that.

I’m reading a great cyberpunk novel about biotech and AI right now (biopunk?). Fun book, very enjoyable. On the cover it has a Neal Stephenson blurb: ”Autonomous is to bio and AI what Necromancer was to the internet”

And without even thinking, that’s exactly how I describe the book to anyone who asks. It’s like the Neuromancer of the tech wave that we’re on the cusp of.

I probably would never be able to come up with that on my own. But I thought I did! I literally thought that was my own description until a few days ago I realized it’s the description I see every time I open the book to read another chapter.

And yes it’s a great book. Totally recommend reading.
AirPods Pro noise cancellation almost definitely gave me temporary tinnitus after a few months of usage even though I never listened to music that loud. Switched to regular AirPods two years ago and the tinnitus entirely went away.
I see that even in my condo's HOA board. There are three types - those that are lurkers but will vote occasionally, those that do not really want to be there, but they feel they are qualified and it's their duty to do the work, and those who want to exercise power and exempt themselves from the declaration/by-laws as much as possible. You need at least one of the second to balance one of the third.
No, systems that disallow criticism of people in positions of authority do not outcompete systems that allow such criticism. If truthful criticism is disallowed, then it will be substituted with falsified praise, a.k.a. lies, and an authority that is divorced from reality is no better at making decisions than a flipped coin.

Frankly, it's a little baffling that you think that "political correctness" (which I guess in this case means "making robots act like robots, rather than making robots act like 18 year-old women"?) is somehow more damning to a society than brutal authoritarian repression of dissent.
You can accumulate/partition statistical numbers in different granularity. Here it's done by countries. You could also do it by men or women or whatever partitioning you want. And of course you can choose to not partition at all and report only one global number.

> I can just use virtualenv with appropriate flags to install 3.6 tooling.

No. I have no idea where you got that idea.

> But if that is also possible by virtualenv/venv what am I missing?

That it's not possible? venv is literally just a module of the standard distribution. And while virtualenv can do a few more things (hence why it remains as an independent project), installing new pythons is not something it can do.

Virtualenv and venv can only create environments for previously installed python (especially venv as you create environments via the python you want to create an env for, it doesn't support creating an env on behalf of a different python than the one it's invoked through).
Is this and airpod thing or noise cancel thing? Bose, Sony etc have had noise cancelling for some models for a long time. I guess release to normies is always a mistake. Next they are comming for the mechanical keyboards.
No way holy shit. Welp. God dammit I was trying so hard to figure out what caused this.
Is there any market research available that shows that blurbs are actually effective in driving sales or interest in a book?
I got tinnitus at 15 from an airplane ride maxxing out my headphones. So 15 years ago. Its fine, you get used to it after 2-3 weeks. Yes it never went away. Buckle up butter cup.

I've only visited the world, but frankly I'd have no problem spending retirement like that
I wonder how much of this is causing tinnitus, vs the total silence revealing (or intensifying) tinnitus
Tinnitus is also a post-covid symptom. They could be looking at the wrong culprit.
Are there any software approaches that can properly modulate and equalize sound based on the various hardware factors and user preference? It seems like it should be possible.
Since tinnitus is basically a dead frequency span being accounted for by the brain, i highly doubt you’d be able to hear thwt same frequency again.
Yeah, I don't buy the EROEI argument either. I do think that non-demand based price shocks spurred research into more expensive (usually lower EROEI) sources of petroleum much sooner than a purely open market would have. 1975-1985 was about as expensive (inflation adjusted) as the early 21st century, and we didn't have a huge shale boom then.
Zuckerberg has full _direct_ control, but also the majority of his net worth is in Meta shares, so he's strongly incentivised to do things that investors like.
> I once had tinnitus for a week after a concert

This is impossible for me. As a self proclaimed hypersensitive person with hyperacusis and misophonia, I would rather fight and claw my way out of any kind of concert or disco rather than suffering from the loud noises. Any kind of concert or disco noise means intense pain to me. Like getting stabbed in the ears.

I found a solution and peace in ear plugs, with them I can enjoy discos and anything else like normal people.

Now one question for you: I do realize the majority of humans can stand those levels of noise without earplugs and without any apparent discomfort. Do all you normies and neurotypicals simply do not have this intense pain reaction to loud noise? How the hell could you suffer through a concert so loud it gave you tinnitus without passing out from pain?
If it's not 100% for any particular reason then you are effectively adding noise and prolonging it's duration. I certainly wouldn't trust the speaker response to exactly match what the DSP is trying to produce over the wide range of audio that you could be listening to.

It may even be worse if you're here a wide spectrum of noise as some components may be canceled while others, particularly high frequencies, may be amplified.

I would always try to make passive cancellation work for my use case first, and only use active cancellation if it was absolutely required.
> The former is usually a difficult question with your manager and/or purchasing, while the latter hardly raises an eyebrow.

The one thing is that everyone on your team probably uses Visual Studio or has a license if you’re a .NET shop, that may not be true of Rider or ReSharper. Your manager is already convinced of the need for VS. (I just bought my own JetBrains Toolbox because I had a coupon, but my company will pay for ReSharper if we want it)

As it's development is fast paced, they tend to get a bit outdated fast. But at least the basic ones get updated often. Most recent versions are from 2022. I think the framework you are referring to is Zinc.
Yeah it can’t be stressed enough, if you go to live events, get concert earplugs and wear them religiously. You hear the music better anyway.

It’s been sad to see friends fail to heed this advice. You don’t want to be that person who needs hearing aids at age 50 due to something you could have prevented with a little forethought.

Etymotic are great and were my standby for years. Recently upgraded to Earasers on the recommendation of a musician friend and I am very happy with them, frequently forget they are even there.
I wouldn't say this is the most boring. In Python it is certainly an empty file.

It was interesting to see the author work through the major obstacles one by one when writing a quine. Glad they didn't take the actual boring route!
Its worth to mention here Blender and Autocad logos history.[0,1]

Overall FreeCAD logo looks ugly: even icon and emoticons, based on it, looks way different.[2]

FreeCAD already has an updated its logo since 2017.[3] Also in 2016 there was a try to make flat-alike in FreeCAD 0.16.[4]

Totally replacing actual logo is not good, but at least some further retouching would be nice improvement.

But its the lest part of FreeCAD that should be fixed now, because there are a lot of serious FreeCAD bugs not fixed yet.

We may notice some small things, but that doesn't mean that we've found all large things.

According to https://www.nasa.gov/planetarydefense/faq we only know about 40% of the rocks sized 140 meters+ that cross Earth's orbit. If one of the 60% we don't know about came at us from the direction of the Sun, our odds of seeing it before impact are fairly small.

This is hardly exclusive to apple hardware. Putting small speakers on your ears isn't a very good idea in the first place. Let alone using them to block external sounds. You can get much, much worse tinnitus from not paying attention to the volume of your headphones.
I mean you're right of course, if this was easily experimentally testable we would've done so already. So we're left to choose between two theories: one in which the rules for macro systems and quantum systems are completely different and quantum systems collapse into a state consistent with the rules for macro systems when they interact with a macro system -- and one where there is only the one set of rules and no collapse.

That doesn't mean you should choose to believe one or the other, but it means that one model requires fewer mechanisms than the other.

At least that's my understanding.
Cruise ships are nothing but pure evil. A bunch of rich people showing their money off in a giant pollution machine just so they can go patronize other cultures like a zoo. Reminds me of that video of those victorian-era royals throwing bread on the ground next to impoverished Africans for entertainment, just sitting there watching these starving people scamper around for scraps. Makes me sick.

That's not even considering the effects on marine life. We have a bunch of useless noise-makers just patrolling water endlessly for no good reason. After 9/11 when all the traffic near New York was forced to stop, whales were shown to be more relaxed than ever before because they didn't have to listen to our constant racket for a few days.
Your ears are a complex system. Just like when your eyes think it's darker, your pupils dilate, your ears have a similar method of controlling how much sound gets to the sensitive bits.

It's possible that ANC convinces your ear to open up a bit more, leading to damage in the frequencies that it doesn't attenuate.
It feels like the world is ending when you break up with someone so significant. Everything seems worse.

I've heard many stories where the grind of a PHD breaks people.That stress must make this harder.

You're probably doing way better than it feels. You're in a PHD program to start. Academically that puts you in a very small percentage of the population. Just to make it that far shows you're smart and hardworking.

You're only 28. I know it feels scary when you're 20s are near the end but you are so young. I didn't get married until I was 34. You have lots of time to develop relationships. Many haven't even had one serious relationship at 28.

I know this must feel terrible but your current rock bottom is higher up than many people will ever get to. You are doing great and your future looks very bright.
> Poetry is basically NPM, Cargo, or Composer.

First of all, no, not even remotely.

But second, my remark was about that segment of the ecosystem, not poetry specifically or exclusively: poetry is just one of numerous players in a field that's been in flux for years.
For many projects it make sense to go with what you are familiar with. A side project or startup can involve a huge amount of learning and discovery unrelated to learning a language, why take on that additional burden?
I have the feeling that this is related to noise cancelling in general. I have some Sennheiser over-ear headphones with ANC and initially I had the same feeling. After using them I notice that my ringing (I already had tinnitus) got worse. It wears off after half a day or more, but it's slowly getting worse overall.

My theory is that it's not possible to create an exact counterwave, so occasionally the delayed ANC "counterwave" will add up to the external sound, increasing it. Maybe this happens is very short bursts or mostly at frequencies which are too high to be really noticeable.

I got tinnitus after COVID, had it for about a year or so now, it seems to get better or worse on its own and doesn't really have any pattern to it.

I will say that when using ANC it bothers me much more if nothing is playing.

I'm not a JS/Vue/React programmer but I would definitely expect function One to return <div>Count: 4</div> if props.count == 2 when One is called. For function Two I would be more suspicious and would not be overly surprised if it returned <div>Count: {props.count * 2}</div> to be evaluated at a later stage.

I found people who's stuck in DOM abstraction like React keeps reinvesting what platform is already capable of. Some abstract is so nasty e.g. forwardRef .. like really? Real Event bubbling is so much better, it visit every damn node you got the ref for free.
I unsubscribed from the NYT a while ago due to the cost. I was planning on resubscribing in the not-too-distance future. But despite letting me subscribe online, they didn't let me cancel online.

So, when I resubscribed to a few other papers again, the NYT wasn't on that list. It'll be a decade before I think about giving them another cent.

I thought I heard that they ended this practice now, but...well, I don't trust them anymore. Once trust is burned, it takes a long time to recover.
Weeeellll... yes and no. You aren't wrong, but I would just note that mainframes were remarkably reliable. They pushed a lot of boundaries on things that we still kinda struggle with today in terms of data integrity, redundancy, hot-swapability, recovery, etc. No question that today's systems are faster and perhaps in some ways more affordable. Definitely the case that the average person wanting to learn about software has more resources and tools available that once upon a time required access to these multi-million dollar machines. But, there's definitely tradeoffs between those centralized systems and our distributed systems of today.
I developed tinnitus about 6 months ago and I’ve been using AirPods for 1 year before that. But not with noise cancelling. Independent research will need to be done on this.
Yeah I feel like the total silence causes me to focus on the ringing, which raises the intensity -- I think it's a mental thing.

Whenever I use noise cancelling headphones (or really any headphones), I always have something playing even at a really low volume to drown out the tinnitus.
