Would you find it reasonable if someone judged whatever political ideology you identify with by the behavior of a few assholes? Trust me, I can find far worse examples of any ideology you can name than even the worst on display in this thread.
> most of them have "var" or an equivalent which saves on typing

Do you mean type inference? Most typed-languages have that, even Haskell/Scala.

It gets iffy on dependent type systems like Agda/Idris.

Nevermind the fact that harassment is endemic online, including in frequent surges on the twitter this guy helped build, we apparently still need to evoke the ghost of gamergate to add legitimacy to our causes.

The bottom line is that it's all pantomime. Twitter handed out short suspensions slowly in response to abuse. People would swap into alt accounts and happily resume. This is very common; Even Elon has an alt. I've seen dozens of "banned, pls rt, searching for moots" posts in my tiny friend circle alone.

I have no side in this debate because I don't support any of the potential candidates, but since US politicians are not effectively disciplined by their base but rather by their donors, it's quite reasonable for the base to seek evidence of past commitment to issues they prioritize. It's a very poor heuristic, but it's all they've got. As you said, the politicians are doing a job, but they don't take their orders from the voters. The system is utterly ruined.
It would suck. We've been there before - older OSes like VMS were a lot more feature-rich and expected deeper integration from their applications. But the Unix "worse is better" approach won out. I think it's a similar effect to "the standard library is where modules go to die": the more functionality gets put in the OS, the slower it can be iterated on. So however cool what you originally build into the OS is, it gets lapped by what eventually gets implemented by loosely coupled userspace programs.
I thought the community hates AGPL3. I'm not sure why forking and setting env varaible as OPEN_SOURCE=true would be a hard thing to do.
How was that book? Looks interesting.
Scala type inference isn't as powerful as Haskell's primarily due to nominal subtyping. Dependent type systems are so power that they defy type inference (in general, the more expressive your types, the harder it is to infer subtyping relationships, which is the primary complexity of type inference).

That’s a yes. I have personally been on public cloud major incident calls. They are strictly on-topic only and generally only the incident coordinator, their offsider, and one or two SMEs, are authorised to speak. There may be hundreds or even thousands of listeners around the globe, most of which are there to fan-out status to impacted internal teams and major customers. However there will also be multiple text-based side-channels going on with the involved service teams.

I'm curious how that works; if the owner isn't happy about transferring the project, why go along with it? What leverage or right does Canonical have?
I struggle the most with Git when I'm working on something exploratory. If I've done it before, it's easy to make commits independent and include their own tests. If I'm figuring it out as I go, I'm more likely to have commit messages like "wip", "build X; refactor Y."

I'm experimenting with this workflow: lean into the Git messiness, git reset --hard all my "bad" commits, and then re-write history to make the "clean" commits that follow principles like these.

We start with a physical core. Virtual cores have "virtual" utilization" and similarly hyperthreaded cores (which is a bit of a marketing term that isn't always useful in the real world). Naturally if you want to understand what a VM is doing you need to also look at the hypervisor. If you want to dive into exactly what's going on with hyper-threaded cores it can be harder given you don't have perfect visibility.

A physical core can either be idle. Or it can be executing instructions. The portion of the time that it's executing instructions is when it's utilized. I think this is a pretty clear and meaningful definition that's been used for decades.

A system admin running Outlook on a server is not going to be able to do anything about a pipeline stall in Outlook on some particular CPU/memory/motherboard. From their perspective when the utilization is 100% Outlook is cpu-bound and can't do more work. And that's why we have this metric. A stall, or an unused execution unit, or an inefficient sequence of instructions, or inefficient algorithms or many other things are all things that cause the actual work you're getting out of the core to be less than what you could get if you rewrote the program. This is not what CPU utilization % means. If there are power management or thermal considerations then that's also another thing you need to look at to get a complete picture.

Now Outlook might be I/O bound, which is a different problem, for which we look at different metrics. By the way, your I/O metrics reported by various tools are also all imperfect, things like whether the I/Os are sequential, or random, the block size, the mix of reads and writes, all have their own peculiar performance characteristics. Which again are of interest for some people optimizing I/O but not generally something that users of applications can do much about.

EDIT: It feels like you are looking for something that tells you as a programmer how much more you can squeeze out of your CPU. There's no such metric. It's up to you to use tools like profilers and your understanding of architecture and your imagination to figure that out. The utilization metric is super useful. I use it a lot. I've used it for years. Do I need to understand all the other factors that influence it - sure do. Is it something I'd use instead of profiling? no.

Which comports with my statements of kid glove treatment. PRC did not want your associate in the country, invited them to drink tea and then booted them out of the country aka the opposite of hostage risk. Are some fields subject to increased national security scrutiny? Sure but arbiturary detention risk is rarely on the cards vs getting kicked out. No different from US booting out PRC academics/students for association with defense connected/adjacent institutes. Even IP espionage does not detain people to give up goods since that’s counter productive, i.e. thousand talent program works only if targets come to PRC willingly. And they do, because the risk of detainment is virtually non-existent hence the US gov has to deter via shenanigan like China Initiative to disincentivize people to people exchanges. It's not the prospect of PRC punishment but the reward that fuels their indy espionage efforts and why the west is playing up arbitrary detention risk.

The US also doesn't show evidence for PRC nationals prosecuted for photographing sensitive infra. They're not releasing said photos, only allegations/prosecutions because of course not. And per script PRC MFA will deny and claim they're just tourists with bad english who can't read signage. That's how the game is played. Choosing to not believe PRC is assuming the default position that western spies aren't operating or if they are, are never caught which we already know not to be true per CIA debacle. At the end of the day damning quack like a duck associations are as good as these scenarios will permit. And in Michaels case, involve literal people with acknowledged intelligence backgrounds. which is close to smoking gun threshold. Obviously we'll disagree but I choose to believe a surveillance state with a proven record of counterintelligence is good at surveilling.
> That's not the parser's fault, but the person's fault. You're bound to get hung up on details regardless of what part of the project you're working on, because it's not the parser compelling you to get hung up on details.

Disagree. The fact that you're working on "a parser" creates the bad project structure that leads you to get hung up on details: a parser whose backend doesn't exist yet inherently has unclear requirements and a lot of bikesheddy decisions to make.
IANAL. You still own the content you create, including your tweets, but by tweeting that content Twitter can do basically whatever they want with that data too.

livegrep is... fine. It's literally what it says it is. It's a web version of grep. livegrep is definitely not a replacement for sourcegraph, which actually understands the underlying code, and lets you follow code paths, search for references, etc.
For this specific article, it’s 100% speculation.

I’m not saying it isn’t true, but rather there is no evidence to support it. Ars Technica is also reporting on this topic this morning, and they are also missing evidence-backed sources. It’s all Wall Street analyst speculation.

I never hopped onto the LXD train because when I needed it years and years ago, it wasn’t quite ready for my use-case so I built my what I needed around LXC itself and it’s worked great.

I wonder how LXC will evolve and if another product will arise from this? It seems like the Linux Containers organization is staying separate with LXC.
It doesn't line up with my decades of actual real life experience at all, but I can see that this is clearly your peceived reality, sure.
I agree with your point. However, I think overuse of the word "toxic" is toxic. :-) It seems to be applied to everything from a jerk who sexually harasses women to overzealous blog posts about version control, so the word becomes pretty meaningless. Toxic literally means poisonous, but even its metaphorical definition is "extremely harsh, malicious, or harmful". Why not use a more appropriate word that doesn't involve extremes?
I agree, you really want a sum, not a tuple - that's why my example was absl::StatusOr<T>, not std::pair. But a tuple plus tooling support (e.g., linters in Go that don't allow you to not use the returned error value) can emulate a sum type.

The highlights, as I understand them:

-In November 2022, the principal investigator on this study published the results of a different study which found MRI evidence of ACL healing in 30% of patients who were randomized to physical therapy with optional delayed ACL reconstruction. [0]

-When an ACL is fully torn, the gap between the ruptured ends inhibits healing. Since the ruptured ends are in closest proximity at 90°-135° of knee flexion, this study investigated whether bracing the knee at 90° would facilitate ACL healing.

-This study lasted five years and involved 80 patients. All participants had full-thickness ACL tears (complete discontinuity of the ACL on MRI). The protocol involved four weeks of bracing the knee at 90°, followed by progressive brace adjustments that slowly increased knee range of motion. The brace was removed at 12 weeks.

-At three months, 90% of patients showed evidence of ACL healing on MRI. Moreover, MRI evidence of ACL healing was associated with better outcomes.

This is monumental.

I never understand the appeal of templates, why not just use a regular programming language and make a function that generates html string like

]) // -> "<div class="container"><p>oh hi!</p></div>"

It's the same ergonomics as custom template languages as far as I know, loops, variables, functions etc, plus you can just call them directly in your server code, not having to worry about another syntax that's not even turing complete

I had taught myself programming when I was 12 years old which was just visual basic 3. I'd stuck with all the VBs throughout their lifetime. In college, I decided to quit programming. I wanted to not stare at a computer screen all day. So my degree is in psychology, not anything related to computers. So... the other reason for going that route was that I hated math and anything related to computer science required a significant amount of math.

I was able to make it through Algebra II but my science degree required another math course. I would've done anything to get out of it and I did just that. I took a programming course called Introduction to Python over the summer, a 5-week course, and I aced it. I loved Python. So that was my fourth programming languagage (VB, Javascript, VB.NET) and it helped me grasp the understanding of my 5th language: PHP.

I love programming but feel that a Logical class in Philosophy teaches you more about programming than mathematics. But I'm sure calculus is important somewhere in programming.
