This is pretty clearly against the spirit, albeit probably not the letter, of the GPL. Sad to see.
>I'd expect it often results in a super toxic community where everyone is trying to find fault with everyone else

It doesn't. People tend to be respectful, and the whole idea is to be more inclusive. The fact that you immediately take a "fuck off don't tell me what to do" attitude is telling.

>But as it is it's pretty exclusionary

On the contrary, it's being inclusionary (in this instance to people with ASD, and you're not comfortable with it.
Most people have incoherent answers to any question of right and wrong. Philosophers like to overcomplicate things and throw buzzwords too. I think it's a very difficult conversation full of emotional traps and personal biases. Once upon a time, we all shared the same moral foundation (religion) and did not have this problem.

Right, my bad.

Permissive licenses are "free" in the sense that they allow to distribute free software (e.g. I can distribute a binary together with its sources even if they are MIT-licensed, and that would be free), but they also allow to distribute non-free software (e.g. I can take MIT code and distribute a proprietary binary).

Copyleft licenses enforce the freedom downstream.

I guess my original point is that I don't understand why people don't like copyleft, because copyleft enforces free binaries.

Does that make sense? Thanks for the correction.
+1 for Meow. Vim doesn't make sense to me, but Meow does.
But does that benefit actually exist? The approach of languages like C++ or Rust isn't to hide memory in the way a GC'd environment like Java or Python does (although C++ does have historical baggage with its copy constructors)--this feels to me like it's the same problem I mentioned in my first comment, that you're focused on contrasting C with managed languages and ignoring the space of non-managed languages. And, anecdotally, from what I've seen perusing various Rust crates, my sense is that too many Rust programmers actually spend too much time worrying about their memory usage, designing extensive and cumbersome zero-copy interfaces when, no really, you should just copy that 5-byte string to your own storage.

I don't see how having to remember to always add in calls to free, with the cost of using more memory if you forget to do so, is really supposed to help you minimize your memory usage. That's the main difference we're talking about here...

I can finally ask someone this! I was thinking of getting my piano tuned to a spicier temperament, happy for certain keys to be noticeably out as long as other keys sound a bit sweeter.

Sure thing - if you've seen "This Person Does Not Exist", it is the product of GANs: https://thispersondoesnotexist.xyz/

GANs pair a generative model with a classification model (both unsupervised) whose loss functions have been designed to be antithetical. Basically, one performing well means the other is performing poorly. Keeping with the example posed by the given link, this results in a kind of hyper-optimization that causes the generative model to gradually hone in on the perfect way to render a face, while the classification model keeps pace with it and feeds back that "I don't see a face" until something resembling a face emerges. With this approach, you can start with complete noise and end up at a photorealistic face.

Not making excuses but when you have to be in and out your house many times a day, it gets quite annoying having to take your shoes off only to put it back on a few minutes later. The real animals are people who go to bed with their shoes on. Inexcusable that.

Eye tracking and hand gesture tracking are hardly new, even used in conjunction. The issue is, as pointed out, none do it well (accurately) enough to be of quality use but progress has certainly been made over a few decades. I've not used the new Apple device but I'd be surprised if accuracy is still good enough. I'll be happy to be wrong but I suspect there's still a fair amount if work needed to get us to a point your average user is happy with. We already complain about touch devices like touch screens which are steps above anything current gesture and eye tracking I've seen can currently do (to my knowledge). People still want physical high precision keys, knobs, button and physical devices like controllers. Tactile feedback is part of it but the accuracy/precision is a larger part.
We developed the definitional model of a financial instrument modeling and simulation system in SML. The system included a DSL for specifying instrument models, so part of what the SML implementation did was act as a denotational semantics for that language.

The intent was never to deploy it using SML, it was to flesh out and formalize the design, and act as a specification for development of the full system.

The system was designed to run on a cluster long before the Kubernetes days, and so had to deal with many of the distribution, scaling, and concurrency issues itself, in addition to its business logic.

One of the experiences I had while working on that system was that at the time, I was reading "Monad Transformers and Modular Interpreters" - a seminal paper by Liang, Hudak, and Jones - and I thought I could probably quite easily implement the paper's approach using ML parameterized modules, instead of the Haskell typeclasses used in the paper. I tried it, and was soon disabused of that notion. Partly as a result of that, we wrote the distributed simulation engine for a later version of the system in Haskell.
I’m always a little confused by the hype of KnR. It seems like just an introduction on the syntax of c?

On-call problems – here are mine. Do you feel the same way?
Hi Folks,

Being on-call has been one of the most painful part of my job as a software engineer now a days. There were a lot of stressful weeks I had spend with completely demotivated about how much time I have been spending on these issues which can be spent on the innovation. So I have listed my top issues in below ranks. I was wondering if others feel the same pain? I also wonder why can there be a solution built for these?

1. I do not have enough information in alert to jump right on the resolution

2. It’s not easy to find similar alerts triggered recently so that I can go back and find how they were fixed?

3. I don’t find runbooks useful most of the times as they are not up to date

4. I don’t know if there were any recently merged changes which caused these alerts/incidents

5. A lot of the time, I don’t know whom to reach out to if this alert is from other team.

6. I have to go to multiple systems to update the statuses or notes

7. I have to summarize all the details again as a part of on-call handoff summary doc at the end of the rotation

That depends on your view of VR entertainment and Las Vegas-style (adult) attractions.

The Vision Pro was showcased with Disney as a content partner. While Disney has historically featured "family friendly" entertainment, there is definitely a market for adult entertainment that the Vision Pro could excel in.

Is it "an exciting Las Vegas adventure in the privacy of your home" or "a lonely person in a dark room trying to escape the sadness of reality"?
Actually the claim was that the global poor are close to the equator. Given how little motivation I have to even move when it's very hot, and how moving is required to generate wealth, and how recently A/C was invented, it's probably not totally a coincidence.

Last time i used Amazon, they dynamically altered the shipping costs to be just above the cost of a month of prime (which would give me free shipping). Whether it was because I was once a Prime member or not, it felt so slimey.
I was wrong indeed, thanks for the precision :-). So:

Permissive licenses are free in the sense that they allow making free software (but they also allow making non-free software).

GPLv3 enforces the complete derived work to be free. LGPLv3 says that the particular library should stay free.

GPLv2, LGPLv2 and MPLv2 say that the source code (either of the whole derived work or just the library) should stay free, but tivoization allows making the product non-free.

Is that about right?

This would run into 14th amendment issues (and the "one person, one vote" doctrine) pretty quickly. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wesberry_v._Sanders and it's similar cases.

Specifically, the 14th amendment's equal protection clause is seen to apply to voting rights (of which apportionment is perhaps the most unclear, but literally giving individuals multiple votes, as opposed to different weights is sort of a beyond obvious violation).

To some degree yes. As the world got more globalized and the number of prestigious universities basically stayed the same while the number of people getting PhDs skyrocketed, the competition for jobs at even third-tier schools became outrageous.

This is also done in auto racing, particularly endurance racing where you might pick up 4+ hours of bugs and debris on the windshield over a driver stint.

Go slices are passed by value so there's no way for clear() to resize the underlying array without reassignment.

I suppose it could have been x = clear(x) or clear(&x), but certainly if you understand Go semantics then seeing any function call do Foo(slice) already signals that the call can't modify the length since there's no return value.
I wouldn't exactly say that standardized tests are the only way to judge, as GWB asked, "Is our children learning?" It would of course be possible to talk to a child and figure out if, for instance, they were illiterate.

I agree that a standard test across schools would be a useful way to standardize or normalize the educational results of all the children. I'm not sure the juice is worth the squeeze.

One other thing I'll mention is that it was SOP in our middle school to just answer randomly because there was no recourse to the individual student for low scores, and as soon as we were done with the test, we were released outside. This may have been addressed procedurally in the MCAS because I think I actually took a slightly older precursor which may have been called the MSAT.

I think you can imagine how useful a test is if there's not any incentive to pass it. It might be possible that the reason the scores are dropping is because more and more children are realizing there is no reason (local to them) to score well on the test.

ECS are a special case of what the article is about, not the other way around.

For instance, I independently came to the same conclusion than the author while developing a library implementing polytomic tree structures.

It's much easier to handle blck-box NodeID's to the user (techincally u64, but don't tell them ;) and act on them with dedicated functions from the lib rather than clenching your teeth waiting for the inevitable segfault when one plays with pointers.

And it's also much easier to handle for the user: you have handles, functions creating them, functions using them, and the library can gracefully fail if you keep using them the wrong way.
We have our "despicableness" threshold set somewhat differently but no, that's not good at all. Thank you for explaining.
Kilogram is a unit of mass, not weight. Just an FYI.

Yes, that sounds right to me. “Free Software” and “open source” are synonyms, with the FSF preferring to use one term over the other, despite recognizing they’re synonyms, because they are ideologues who are obsessed with language use. Permissive and copyleft are two different types of free software/open source licenses, with the FSF preferring copyleft.

To answer your underlying question: I like permissive licenses because I am not ideologically opposed to unfree software, and I’d rather software be used by a company than not at all.

Give aider a try. As long as each file fits in the context window, it should work. With gpt-3.5-turbo-16k or gpt-4 you can edit files up to around 30 kbytes in size. If you have access to gpt-4-32k, you could edit files up to about 120 kbytes. See the notes here for more info:

There's no chance. It's certain.

"In 44 BC in Rome, Julius Caesar was assassinated by a group of his own senators, crumpling to the floor with a final gasp. This last breath contained around 25 sextillion (that’s 25 followed by 21 zeroes) air molecules, which would have spread around the globe within a couple of years. A breath seems like such a small thing compared to the Earth’s atmosphere, but remarkably, if you do the math, you’ll find that roughly one molecule of Caesar’s air will appear in your next breath.

And it doesn’t stop there. In the same way, you might currently be inhaling Cleopatra’s perfume, German mustard gas and even particles exhaled by dinosaurs."
