> 1) the immigration rate is so high it isn't enough to keep up

That could be addressed by making home building a priority and by relaxing regulations like zoning. Allow more infill.

> 3) The government doesn't want to do anything about it because immigration is how they're keeping down wages

That's not the only reason to support immigration. Canada, as is the case with most western nations, is facing a demographic cliff due to lowering birthrates among it's citizens. Countries that allow more immigration can mitigate these demographic problems. Countries that are facing birthrates that are falling to or under the replacement rate should be trying to attract immigrant labor. Countries in that position that don't are going to be facing some serious issues in the not too distant future as their populations age.

> the rich get richer ... and the poor get poorer

I mean, what's actually happening is that the rich get richer and the poor also get richer but at a slower rate

> growing wealth inequality leads to all sorts of other dysfunction including increased crime

No, we have significantly higher inequality than the 1990s and significantly lower crime. So the opposite of what you said.
I agree that realloc was poorly defined for the 0 size case, I think UB or IDB both would have worked in this case to really drive that point home, the WG chose UB.

That being said, you're completely wrong about what UB means. Making use of UB may as well initiate the rise of zombie velociraptors. Except for the situation where your implementation explicitly specifies that it provides a predictable behaviour for a specific case of UB, there's literally no guarantee of what will happen. Assuming that the implementation will stick with some status quo and your code won't exhibit absolutely unusual behaviour is just naiive.

Please don't mislead people into thinking that it's ever a good idea to assume that undefined behaviour will be handled sensibly, this kind of mislead assumption is one of the major sources of bugs in C code.

All of these complexities have either existed or evolved in the browser completely independent of Node. And while I have plenty of criticism for Node particularly around its dependency resolution, it didn’t introduce new complexity in this case (other than what it inflicted on itself to allow ESM/CJS to coexist, which doesn’t extend to browsers at all.)

As far as write once/run anywhere, Deno has been pretty good at showing this is still limiting but could be much less painful if the server runtime shared more applicable APIs instead of ad hoc doing idiosyncratic stuff.

I’ll definitely agree that JS is a bit lisp like, but not due to runtimes. It’s been a build target with build time semantics for a long while. Unfortunately it’s unlike lisp in that those semantics are part of arbitrary tooling which don’t always agree but have been forced to coexist, rather than semantics of the language itself.
Did you see this article containing screenshots of an ethnic studies course at a California high school, with slides about "Critical Race Theory"? https://reason.com/2022/01/31/critical-race-theory-taught-in... Some might accuse the "whistleblower" of being a "grifter", now that she's swapped her teaching career for the conservative speaking circuit – but, I doubt the screenshots are faked, because if they weren't real, surely the school would have come out and said that to rebut her criticism of them.

Maybe that course is an outlier, but it does serve as a counterexample to the narrative that "CRT is not being taught in K-12 schools". But, if they are teaching CRT (even by name) in some schools, how close is the CRT they teach to the original academic theories? Given my personal experience at how badly schools can mangle things – I still remember the bizarre errors in my high school computing studies textbook, and the interactions I had with teachers in which I tried to explain why the textbook was wrong, and they couldn't understand anything I was saying – it wouldn't surprise me if high school CRT had little in common with the scholarly version.

But if that's true – wouldn't it just show that critics are not the only people appropriating the term "CRT"? In which case, if people on "both sides" are appropriating "CRT", how is its appropriation any worse than that of "woke"? If you'll accept the appropriation of the latter, why refuse it for the former? With "scare quotes", if need be.

> Seems a bit tone deaf to create new undefined behavior in memory handling,

It's only tone deaf to people who understand "undefined behavior" as an epithet or as synonymous with giving a license to compilers to screw you over. The term doesn't have either of those meaning to those on the C committee. In fact, one of the explicit rationales for the proposal is that, "Classifying a call to realloc with a size of 0 as undefined behavior would allow POSIX to define the
otherwise undefined behavior however they please." https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n2464.pdf

> especially when a sane default behavior seems to be de facto

The above proposal, N2464, gives the behavior for AIX, zOS, BSD (unspecified), MSVC (crt unspecified), and glibc. They each have different behaviors.

Why they chose to finally make it undefined (it was marked as obsolescent for a long time) rather than keep it as implementation-defined, I don't know. Perhaps because it 1) simplifies the standard, and 2) by making it undefined it suggests compilers should start warning about it--despite all this time neither has there arisen a consensus among implementations about the best behavior, nor are programmers aware that the behavior actually varies widely.

EDIT: The draft SUSv5/POSIX-202x standard has indeed directly addressed this issue. See, e.g., https://www.austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=374 The most recent draft included the following addition to RETURN VALUE:

OB If size is 0,
OB CX or either nelem or elsize is 0,
OB either:

OB * A null pointer shall be returned
OB CX and, if ptr is not a null pointer, errno shall be set to [EINVAL].

OB * A pointer to the allocated space shall be returned, and the memory object pointed to by ptr
shall be freed. The application shall ensure that the pointer is not used to access an object.

CX marks points of divergence with C17. The first CX is because of the addition of reallocarray, absent from C17. The second is because POSIX will mandate the setting of EINVAL if NULL is returned.
There’s like 100k people going to undergrad at schools of that caliber at any given time and none of the rest of them founded OpenAI, so this is pretty underdetermined as an account of how sama got where he did.
Yes, beneficial refers to those genes continuing on into the future.

The operative descriptive word describing those "useless traits" is cost. If nothing else, they have a cost of the energy and resources required to produce the relevant cells or whatever. Another organism that does not waste that energy and resources will out-compete the one building the useless trait. Natural selection will make it go away.
If you turn it around, all three could also be argued to be solutions to "filters". High yield weapons ensure MAD which prevents large scale wars between superpowers which would bleed civilization until it collapsed. AI can easily accelerate technological development in areas that solve major problems holding us back. Low cost to orbit is obviously beneficial but I'm assuming that's the opposite of what you were proposing i.e. costs stay high forever which is a filter in itself.
I'm left a bit confused here about your interpretation - or at least those of your managers.

Well, rising cost of living is a reality everywhere (it’s called inflation). But Munich is really extreme. You might want to consider moving to Eastern Germany. If you pursue an academic career, you might want to watch for positions in Magdeburg, Greifswald or Leipzig.

> How the hell are we ever supposed to build up some savings

ETFs (exchange traded funds i.e. index funds) give you better yield than just paying into a savings account. You also might want to invest some percent in more risky positions like BTC and ETH (10%) bc now is a good time to do that.

Also give it a couple of more months. Housing price increases are already decelerating and start to decline in some areas. The last 10 years were exceptional in low interest rates and money printing in the EUR zone.

Yep, I get that lots of software are Windows only. I was super happy with Visual Studio until recently a couple of years, basicly when JS component started to replace those native ones. It took only 80MB of memory when loaded a fairly big solution. But now, a few GB just to load a tiny solution. Lots of functions I don't give a f*k about were added recently, but for those small little things indentation while formatting code etc.. are no longer working as what they used to be. And you just reminded me another bug of Windows 10. So on Friday, I was debugging something and decided to stop as I found what was wrong. Debugging stopped but the process did not and wasn't shown at all in the taskmgr, had to kill it using command line so that I could build the new code. Nothing big but super annoying.

Yes, compute costs money, but for the human brain energy was way more restricted, since an substantial increase in energy demand would lengthen the time needed for finding food.

> The second part is the misconception about the impact of UB. [...] It grants the implementation the power to decide the best course of action. That is, after all, what they’ve been doing all this time anyway.

Wrong, Wrong, Wrong.

UB allows the implementation to take any arbitrary course of action, without informing anyone, without documentation, without any conscious decision, without weighing anything to be better/worse. Nondeterministically catching fire and launching nuclear rockets is a completely compliant reaction to UB.

What you are describing is "implementation defined" behavior. That has to be deterministic, documented, and conforming to some definition of sanity. Examples are the binary representation of NULL, sizes of integer types or stuff like the maximum filename length. Sadly, too many things in C have "undefined behavior", too few have "implementation defined" behavior.

And UB has always been an excuse for compilers to screw over programmers in hideous ways. Programmers are rightfully afraid of any kind of new UB being introduced, because it will mean that whole new classes of bugs will arise because the compiler optimized out that realloc(..., a) where a might be 0, because thats UB, so screw you and your code... And this change is especially dangerous because it makes a lot of existing code UB.
Those Europeans don't even need a passport to do that.. so your example doesn't really make any sense.

I only see one solution to right the wrongs of the past (with respect to the housing bubble). Tax wealth annually. Tax home sales the way the US does it.

As a society, we need to acknowledge how zero interest rates were directly responsible for the housing bubble. The people that caused that should be shamed publicly.
Same with increasing highway and road lanes
Lots of speculation that SpaceX will likely try to "soft land" the booster in the ocean, just like the did with Falcon 9 first stage the first ~handful of times they were trying to land it (or, more accurately, learn how to land it).

Possibly similar with the upper stage too, just so they can practice and learn.
Some of these predictions are reasonable, but some of these are pretty out there. I'm as diehard a Linux user as any, but some of these feel like they live in their own little bubble a bit too much.

> The announcement of an updated Steam Deck

I think this is way too soon, it's only been out just over a year. It reminds me of people convinced the Switch Pro will be just around the corner. They may come out with a better Steam Deck, but I don't think it will be for a while (and I personally hope they don't move into some annual upgrade pattern).

> We will see some sort of VR device for the Steam Deck in 2023

I just can't picture how this would even work. They're completely different products for different demographics, and trying to mush them together makes no sense. Maybe we'll get an updated Valve Index, but not some Steam Deck specific thing.

> Next, I believe that there will be a AAA game exclusive for the Steam Deck in 2023.

Even if Linux had sizable enough market share to justify not making a Windows port, there's nothing about the Steam Deck hardware that would make a game Deck only.

> This is my longshot… I predict a Steam-based console comparable to the Xbox or PS5 will be announced before the end of this year.

A longshot indeed. I don't think there's even the slightest chance of this, especially given the fate of the Steam machines.

> Epic provides official support for Linux on the EGS and puts Heroic Games Launcher out of business

> Ubuntu has lost its top spot as the gaming Linux platform.

This I believe actually. I think Arch-based distros have been higher on the Steam survey for a while, and I don't see that changing.

It doesn't only apply to genetic traits, it also applies to memes which also evolve and would cover your concerns.
It depends on what you mean by "intelligence." Are you looking for an IQ? Trying to learn new skills faster? Learn new facts faster? Think faster? Have better recall for what you've learned? Be able to synthesize new things from information you already know? Being "smart" is complicated, and it can mean a lot of things, but here's what I would say is the most general advice from my own life:
1. If you're looking to improve IQ, the most important thing is practice. IQ is mostly based on reasoning and logic, so things like logic games or puzzles, or trying to look at a problem you're having from a different way from usual are good ways to work on it.
2. If you want to learn new skills faster, it's best to find one skill that can be "used" to help with a number of other skills. Anything related to hand-eye coordination can be picked up faster if that's already a skill that you have.
3. Learning new facts is... tricky, but ironically the best thing you can do to learn them faster is to slow down. Your mind can only hold up a max of seven new pieces of information at once, but that's assuming you have a very good short term memory and strong ability to convert short term to long term. For most people, it's more like 3 or 4. Slowing down how fast you encounter new information can improve your ability to recall it later.
4. Thinking speed, unfortunately, isn't really something you can change, at least not in my experience. Then again, I apparently think fairly quickly as is, so I may not be the best person to ask on that front.
5. Synthesizing information also mostly comes down to practice, but it also requires a level of thinking beneath the surface level (though if you're asking this kind of question, you're probably familiar with that) and analyzing each new piece of information to actively look for connections to what you already know.

Yeah, that was pretty long winded and may not even have been entirely what you were asking, but I hope it's still useful to you.
> We are already looking to move to other places

Moving doesn’t necessarily help much. That is because usually house prices are directly driven by how much people can loan on a mortgage, which is directly driven by earnings. Cheaper housing often means lower earnings potential. Conversely, saving in a high earning country can mean you have a deposit for a house in a cheaper country.

Edit: Counterintuitively, high interest rates can help middle class people that don’t have homes. House prices drop, so you need less deposit. And usually you can work harder for a few years to nail principal (I know people that bought in the 80s - one friend had an interest rate of 28%).

Some remote workers can earn in a wealthy country and live in a cheaper country.

Meanwhile, watch out for the most unaffordable cities: https://www.visualcapitalist.com/least-affordable-cities-to-... https://www.theguardian.com/cities/gallery/2017/jan/23/10-mo... Canada, New Zealand, and Australia have some batshit insane unaffordable real estate (stop whinging about SF - 9th place on Guardian list!). As a New Zealander I would struggle to recommend moving here without already having a nest egg - although if you are willing to move to rural areas you might find something cheap (but usually not find a job too - house prices are driven by median incomes in most places, sometimes driven by investors, wealthy immigration, or movement of people such as retirees) https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/property/residential/sale

> Travel within Europe is insanely cheap compared with North America because low cost carriers exist [...] You're not finding flights in the US between major cities for less than 3 digits

That's 'nuts', why's that? If £12 short haul flights between cities works in Europe why not in the US? Obviously the US is a lot bigger than the UK, but so's Europe, I could book a flight right now for today to (checks) Ibiza for £9.99, Milan or Barcelona for £12.99, and so on. Why's it 10x that (actually 29x for today, but ae little as 5x (mid two digits) if we push the date out and go mid week, call it 10x, whatever) for NY to Chicago? Naively I would think within one country it should be possible to run it if anything even cheaper.
