Very much still active. Steve Coogan still does tours as Alan Partridge and there’s a gig from (iirc) this year available on Netflix called Stratagem.

In my opinion the most of the Partridge stuff since I’m Alan Partridge has been pretty poor. The one exception being the movie Alpha Pappa. But hardcore Partridge fans might still enjoy Stratagem.
My only frustration with fastapi is the lack of API documentation.

Usually docs just have API specified, this project goes the other end of the spectrum and has examples for everything.

Whilst that is nice, APIs are undocumented and it is a bit harder to grok the project without the available functions and methods in a list

Oh yeah, because assumin maximum values in your domain doesn't move all algorithms into constant time and renders complexity theory void.
Not by themselves.

However there are theories on how a super advanced civilisation could achieve your points 1 and 2:

1) Use black holes as a power source. This works by encasing a rotating black hole in a Dyson sphere where the inside is coated in perfect mirrors. Then you fire lasers across the inside to the other side (not into the black hole). (I think you fire your laser in the direction the black hole is rotating.) This light steals some of the black holes rotational energy and just keeps on building up as it bounces off the mirrors and around the black hole. As the energy builds you then bleed off the higher energy beams - this is your power source, likely the greatest power source ever to exist.

2) See (1) above. Now instead of bleeding off the energy in a reasonable way, you just keep the entire thing 100% sealed after you fire your first beams, and just let the runaway laser beams gain in energy for a much longer time. You might need stronger mirrors? This can now be weaponised as follows:

A) Do nothing. It'll eventually gain too much energy for your containment and explode. Literally a black hole bomb. So the way this strategy works is you find a suitable black hole near your enemy and build your Dyson sphere, start your laser ignition then leave. Eventually it'll explode and obliterate anything within range. I'm not quite sure what the range would be.

B) The above are ideas I learnt from a Kurzgesagt video. My humble addition to this ridiculous concept is instead of letting the thing become a bomb, just let the energies build way past power generation scales, but before your Dyson sphere breaks down, and open a directional channel, like imagine a cylinder with the same mirrors on the inside aimed like lenses and this cylinder sticks out from the sphere on the outside. Now open a hole in the shell for light to pour out into your cylinder lens "gun barrel" and ensure its aimed at a star system you want to obliterate. Now you have something potentially more powerful than any astrophysical/relativistic jet and on demand.

I took a climate course or something in undergrad, and pretty much the only thing that stuck with me from that was technically we are still in an ice age? Since it is technically defined as when there is ice on the north and south poles. For millions (billions?) of years it alternates between there being ice and no ice.

I keep wondering if I misremembered since it's so different to the whole global waking narrative

That's partly the case, but part of the higher ranking of other drugs is due to lack of safe access. There's no perfect model, but I would argue alcohol is a drug like any other - with risk of dependence, with health consequences, and with mortality risk. So my question to the parent is: why would we separate alcohol? Would parent be in favor of returning to prohibition?

I think it's fair to say that alcohol does far more harm to the user than psychedelics.

I think it was a very deliberate ploy by Musk to shift the political Overton window to way to the right.

First of all - I'm about 50% sure whether this is sarcastic or not. If it's not, then this comment is addressed to you. If it's sarcasm, then consider it as an explanation for everyone else.

Variable modified types are cool - you can use them to cast a raw pointer to a N times N matrix and the math works out - you can just do m[i][j] instead of m[i*N+j].

But the evil part is when you declare variable length arrays on the stack. There are exactly two possible scenarios - either you have an upper bound on the allocated size or you don't.

If you have an upper bound and it is reasonably small, use a fixed length array on the stack - there is no point in saving a few bytes on the stack.

If you don't have an upper bound, VLAs will blow your stack, given the right inputs.

If you need a way to allocate unbounded arrays in a LIFO pattern, which 99% of the time are tiny, use a dedicated index-incrementing allocator, falling back on malloc when necessary. You can even cast the resulting pointer to a variably modified type, so that sizeof math works out
In germany you are expected to go on a three year apprenticeship when you want to do a job which needs practical skills.

You work part time at a company and go part time to school, combined thats between 35 and 40 hours a week. You don't get paid that much during that time, but if someone pays for your room it's enough.

Without going that route you literally don't get a full paid job.
Throwing out the unpopular opinion here: PHP! For all the hate it gets, the package ecosystem is really great. Libraries follow Semver (because the package manager, composer, requires it), quality is usually high, even for less widely used packages, and compatibility is taken seriously.

Smaller, disjointed entities have, by definition, higher overheads: if before you had 1 payroll accountant for 100 state employees, then you split duties over 5 nonprofits, now you have 5 payroll accountants.

The counter-argument is that the 5 orgs can be somewhat more efficient than the one monolith, but the key is the conditional: they can, but there is no guarantee, whereas the 4 extra overheads are guaranteed. That's one of the many systemic flaws of privatized/delegated systems.

In my opinion, Semver only makes sense for shared libraries, not for applications, or OSes, or for APIs exposed on the network.

For applications, it goes just like you said.

For APIs on the network, the caller should only get to control the breaking version their request gets routed to (the rest is abstractly owned by the service provider).

In all cases I’m aware of, “decriminalization” refers to legalizing possession of small end user amounts. It doesn’t legalize production or sales, so the issues you described remain.

If low drug prices is what you want, we should legalize the production and sales of drugs, but keep usage illegal.

Your comment instituted a tongue & cheek low bar for low jail threshold, I just went with it. These days you need to practically murder someone to finally get sent to jail (at least where I live). But if someone physically barred me from entering a fast food restaurant, I’m not sure why that wouldn’t at least be assault (assuming I tried to force myself in, of course then the question is who is assaulting who, that can get messy legally). But, no, you wouldn’t even go to jail for assault, or would get bailed out quickly and get let off by the judge.

Well, this is why "it boils down to" this. You can't control what other people do; you may have influence, sometimes, but never control. You can't blame people for what they do, if you live with the assumption that 'most' people are making the 'best' decisions with the information they have available at the time of making it; where 'best' means something that could be an entire book.

Every decision boils down to one of four types of decisions (philosophy 101):

1. inconsequential and routine (what color shirt to wear)

2. inconsequential and once-in-a-lifetime (what color shirt to wear _today_)

3. consequential and routine (which route to take to work)

4. consequential and once-in-a-lifetime (who to marry)

The thing is, 1 & 2 can be and usually are consequential; it's just that you lack the ability to detect the consequences. Usually. I met my wife, on the beach, with some friends. The decision that led there, I thought, was inconsequential at the time.

But yes, your information will always be imperfect. I have scars all over my body from doing things that should have been fine. I've nearly died and somehow escaped (or been rescued from) the situation too many times to count. You have to live with consequences and not all consequences are knowable in advance; and for that matter, not all consequences are bad.
How on earth do people get from "the version number starts with a zero" to "the quality is astonishingly low"? It blows my mind.

Edit to add: If I was an opensource package maintainer again, my first action would be to massively bump the major version number of my packages. HUGE increase in quality right there.

Thanks for the paper Daniel. Very easy to read and understand.

I believe I might have found a minor typo that made me scratch my head for a second. On page 3 in the part where you describe the "follow pointers" part of the algorithm you wrote vi=sj and then cpi=csj whereas I believe you meant cvi=csj and that we can now replace vi with csj to make it cvi. Let me know if I'm misunderstanding something here.

I am in horizontal construction (in Australia) and it is pretty much the same story. The key is having a person who can relate to both the corporate & project people, and has the understanding to translate that into a useful product. Quite rare it seems.
> But with high mobility nowdays, they seldom think it is worth it anymore. You teach and then they thank you and move on.

You mean you tell them you will teach them, require them to have the skills to begin with anyways, work them like any other employee but with a fraction of the cost promising them full employment at the end, and at the end thank them and tell them to move on?

I experienced something similar at a famous parisian landmark with a person trying to sell souveniers. When I declined he got strangely aggressive and I felt like quickly getting away even though the place was packed with tourists. In Istanbul there was a man selling flowers getting a bit agressive when I declined. So like said elsewhere in this thread, this phenomenon is not drug specific.

I wouldn't say that the outcome is necessarily the same all the time, but the getting-nothing-of-any-value-done architect seems to be a common occurrence. We had one that by proxy stopped development on at least 3 projects I was supposed to be involved in because people wanted to make him part of the process, despite me having 10 or so years more experience and an evident track record of successfully greenfielding projects versus his 0. He ended up being literally the only person ever at our company to effectively get demoted.

Previously the same company had hired one of my previous coworkers as a "software/solutions architect" and he had basically the same trajectory but with him at least I suspect he was just burned out. With that said, seeing someone has the title "Software Architect" is definitely a signal to pay attention to whether this person is even remotely competent and/or produces anything of value. If they give off the impression that they are just supposed to hand off designs to someone else to implement you know you have a complete dud and a moron on your hands.

The liability for a company when an employee intervenes in theft is too high. It’s much easier to let your employees stand by the wayside and replace the item. Most big box stores will punish employees who try to get involved. You gotta replace a lot of items before it’s more expensive than a multi million dollar lawsuit from the family of an employee that dies in a petty theft gone wrong. And these corporate policies shape the world.
Pitfalls of the don't repeat yourself principle
I learned (assembly)programming on a chip that had no multiplication instruction. It was 6510 (a version of popular 6502) and I fail to see the benefit. Back then every multiplication had to be done via addition in loop and division with subtract/compare(except certain numbers like powers of 2 where one could bit shift). You can imagine how slow it was. I was envious of my friends with Amigas (68k cpu) who had chips that were capable of multiplication in hardware. It seems obvious that a properly tuned hardware implementation is always going to be faster than doing the same thing in software. Taken to the extreme this is the crux of the old RISC vs CISC debate.

I don't really understand how anybody sensible can read a sentence like that and think to themselves, "yes, this is fine."

If individual bodily autonomy is the god you have chosen to worship above all other paths painstakingly eked out over the ages through much trial and error toward human flourishing, I guess it makes sense, but for those of us who ascribe to more, dare I say, traditional ideas about what constitutes good human life, the thinking that underlies the kinds of policies which lead to the outcomes detailed in this article seem utterly abhorrent.
