A fun thing they show in the animations is how you can do basic arithmetic in the size fields. So if you've setup your document in millimetres (I do this for woodworking designs) and you have a shape with width 5mm you can do this:

5.000 + 2mm

Or:

5.000 + 0.2cm

I don't know when Inkscape started doing this, but I just gave it a go one day because it felt like something I would put in (and to their credit, they did).
> NATS vs MQTT vs Kafka vs Redis Queue vs Amazon SQS - how do they all stack up

I'm curious why are RabbitMQ and AMQP no longer part of such comparisons (not only your comment, nobody else on this thread has mentioned them).
The GP is referencing cases where inference can't figure out what the T is in Option::<T>::None. This can happen in the body of a closure without an explicit return type, for example. To solve it you have to specify the type either earlier in a place that helps inference (in the example, add a return type) or in the expression, like None::<()>.

How Much the Most Followed Instagram Accounts Earn on Posts
Yes, it is an issue, but not for the reasons you think. For example, take these two APIs:

// returns null if post doesn't exist
async function loadPost(id: string): Promise<Post | null>;

interface ResourceState<T> {
// null if no data has been loaded yet
data: T | null;
}
function createResource<T>(load: Promise<T>): Observable<ResourceState<T>>;

Both are largely designed to fit together (`createResource(loadPost(id))`), but if you do then you now have no idea whether `data` is null because the post couldn't be found, or because it's still being loaded. You would either have to use different nulls (null vs undefined) or have `ResourceState` box T somehow.

§um types are safe from this because they can distinguish between `None` and `Some(None)`.
My understanding is that they never "intended" to release it at the time it was (based on a forum post from their devs).

Have you actually been using it?

It wasn't clear to me from the high level posts/commentary about it, until I had an Arm Mac to try it with, that it does not in fact run Arm VMs - it runs 32bit x86 VMs, extremely slowly.

I'm really curious who, if anyone, is using it.
As someone who worked for NASA, I can tell you that sounds like a great idea. NASA is stuck where it is exactly because of the vested interests from within the agency itself with undue influence. People that are too close to the problem can’t see the surrounding context and are blind to tradeoffs. The best space policy comes from independent space advocacy groups.

Edit: if you want a more authoritative version of the same take, read Escaping Gravity. I was at NASA at the same time she was deputy administrator, and I cannot emphasize enough how vilified she was. The epitome of the know-nothing outsider coming in the screw up the space program. There was a united front against her and her crazy ideas about commercial crew… and of course she’s been proven right on every point.

Console copies don't rely on your Ubisoft account so no, it does not. You might lose progress in games where it's stored on Ubisoft servers though, like The Division.

VirtualBox 7 came out almost exactly one year after the initial release of Windows 11. The bypass of the Secure Boot requirement was needed for quite a while.

I'm a sports fan and I see it as an annual subscription model. They update rosters and make small tweaks, and if I don't care I can stick with the older games. I've seen Jetbrains use a model where you optionally subscribe for continued updates, and I've seen it in audio production software too.

Madden for PS5 is $70.00, or just under $6/mo. If you spend half as much time playing Madden as you do watching Netflix or Youtube, then it's not out of line with the average cost of entertainment.

There are good points to be made about whether EA are meeting their full potential on quality of updates though.

Since then “ethics of LLMs at Google” has pivoted to overt lobbying and attempts at controlling regulation: https://www.reuters.com/technology/openai-google-others-pled...

Someone who is just saying "good/bad/yay/nay" on a piece of art isn't a critic, I'd suggest, but just an opinion-haver. Being a "critic" requires some level of thoughtful critique.

Wait what the heck. How is this shit even legal ? I have a few of Ubisoft games on steam and Ubisoft's official site. I used to feel bad when I was young and pirated because I didn't have money to buy video games. Now they are just justifying reasons to pirate. Which I definitely will start if the products I bought are taken away. This is an insane *Terms and conditions.

Because the steam "version" is just an unlock inside Ubisoft Connect. The game isn't managed through steam internally(although steam does have the ability to download the game and its updates).

There was OneCoin, a $4 billion Ponzi whose leader is on FBI’s Most Wanted list:

(IMHO it’s bizarre that OneCoin never bothered to actually deploy a cryptocurrency. If they had done that and then manipulated its price, they would be just like every other useless cryptocoin and the bag holders would be licking their wounds quietly. The end result would be the same as a plain Ponzi but the FBI would never have been involved because token-utility-innovation-something-something.)

There is a lot in this release that I'll readily use. Pinned colours and font collections in particular seem useful, but I'm looking forward to seeing how the improved node deletion logic works too. Deleting nodes used to have unintuitive effects on the path; not in terms of its shape, but in the distribution of the nodes on the section where you deleted one.
You may want to give some benefit of doubt to unarguably the most successful car company of this world.

Unlike USA (and Europe?) public charging infra' is nonexistent in most part of the world. Compounded by unavailability of affordable home charging devices and easy/affordable installation logistics. Toyota perhaps does not see sense in riding the 'hype', instead continue to focus on where demand is - conventional cars.

However, they seem to be investing for the future when charging infra catches up. They started on electric car tech in 1992 (way before anyone else), and continue to invest in R&D; infact had released mainstream electric vehicle - Rav4, which they discontinued in 2014 as the "charging time was slow".

Toyota couldn’t convince the world it wasn’t reluctant about EVs, in part because of Toyoda’s straight-shooting, plain-spoken approach. He (new CEO Toyoda) outlined insufficient clean energy and charging infrastructure as a “limiting option” for customers. At the end of last year, Toyoda said “it takes time,” while also noting that they’d “been investing in electrification” since they “started working on hybrids, with our sights on building BEVs (battery electric vehicles).

Ask HN: How Much Karma Before I Can Post Something?
I'm sure this is posted somewhere, but I couldn't find it. How much Karma do I need before I'm allowed to post a link?

I mean... if you can see this, can you comment on it?
Ah, I hadn't heard of SWIG until now, which means it's probably best for others who do use them to comment how useful they are.

I think, future me could find them useful, e.g. to ship a single binary (whether native or WASM), but I can't say how soon that would be.
I like to think of Astrology (the way ancient India / subcontinent attempted it) as the largest and most ambitious big data analytics project.

Whether they provided real results or just an illusion of it is up for debate. But some "actionable insights" were surely delivered :)

Keeping records of many independent variables (time and place of birth, positions of "planets" at the time of birth, and their movement againts constellations through ones lifetime) and then trying to correlate them with observed outcomes / results. (Personality traits and accomplishments).

Developing some latent representation of those input combinations. Giving them esoteric names that don't mean anything in real physical world. And then using those categories to make predectionas.

Might as well compare it to a neural network being trained to predict.

Is this line of comparison already attempted and well trodden? I am just curious -- maybe I am not the only one who thought of it this way? Even though I myself use this comparison semi jokingly.

Hey there. We just wanted to chime in that you can avoid class action lawsuits and regulatory investigations, by backpedaling.

You probably also want to fix whatever organizational dysfunction led to a video game company behaving like this, and talking like this.
Because the games bought on steam just unlock the game inside Ubisoft Connect - steam is just a download manager at that point. You still technically own the product on Steam, Ubisoft can't change that - but since your associated Ubisoft account doesn't exist anymore the game won't launch. I'm not saying it's great, just explaining how it works behind the scenes.
That doesn’t answer my question. It sounds like you’re using “institutionalised” as a scare word.
I'd like to ask this here again because I haven't got a clear answer yet. What about building a plant, getting the fuel, storing the fuel, and decommissioning the plant, how is that affecting the cheap and the clean energy in total greenhouse gas emissions? Is it worthwhile compared to wind farms and solar power? And where is the fuel stored in the States, because here in Germany it's hard to find a place to store it for 10 millennia.
> In which case, it would be much less hypocritical if they either said it was for sanitation;

Some might and do argue that various religious taboos not that rarely served very practical purposes (at least at the time they were established). Also I wouldn’t be that eager to claim that ancient people could’ve that easily made the distinction between religious/ritual and physical purity/cleanliness like we do.

One important aspect of Christianity compared to some other religious which did survive for thousands of years to some degree was the prioritization of the spiritual world over the physical. Personal grooming, focus on one’s look or hygiene was viewed as somewhat sinful.
> It's not an insult to point out the obvious 'ignorance is bliss'. You can still like bargain bin fast food while admitting such food is garbage.

It does feel like an insult. And it also feels like an insult to say those players are ignorant. I'm fully aware of what I'm buying every year, but it meets my expectations of such game.
You also will get problems with pesticides etc that are really bad for the environment with an dogmatic ban ban on drugs.
My daily used distros are Fedora on my home laptop (x270) and Pop!_OS on my work laptop (t14). Also a hp microserver and an x230, both with Proxmox (Debian) and one gaming PC with Windows (I would love to migrate this to a Linux machine also but my Oculus Rift prevents this as they stopped supporting Linux early on).
Or, how to get distracted from the real problem of making it reason. (That comedic elephant in the room.)
That's why I just don't buy their games. I really enjoyed Far Cry 3 and would really like to get the rest of the series, but just can't put up with their account system even at discounted prices.

I was part of a team maintaining 150k lines of ancient JavaScript. Doing this requires careful engineering, but is otherwise possible, though not recommended. A good friend of mine is still there.

I find conversations with him enlightening because there does not exist a mainstream type system which can clearly an concisely express what he's doing there - even though these are fairly mundane things in dynamically typed languages, like arguments with correlated types.

I'm a firm believer in exercise as a means of maintaining skill, so I've been doing a hobby project in vanilla JavaScript. Of course I make type errors, but they're usually the sort that makes me go "aw shit, this field is wrong" and move on. Meanwhile I relearned some characteristics of this environment, which are:

-Tests are mandatory.

-You have to be radically explicit, otherwise you lose track of what you've been doing.

-Documentation is the cornerstone of remaining on track in the long run.

-The biggest mistakes are not in the types, but, unsurprisingly, the logic behind the code.

-General advice, like short-circuiting edge cases, using pure functions and immutable data structures still applies.

-As per Grug (https://grugbrain.dev/) - "grug very like type systems make programming easier. for grug, type systems most value when grug hit dot on keyboard and list of things grug can do pop up magic. this 90% of value of type system or more to grug" - wise tell this, me concur

Some interesting features of the codebase so far:

-There's considerably less code than in my imagined type-annotated version.

-I still use JSDoc to label inputs and outputs.

-I'm sort of cheating, because I rely heavily on classes, which have the `myObject.constructor.name` property, which in turn serves as runtime type information.

-Data structures are flatter - I have e.g. an array (named "path") where even indexes are strings, odd - numbers. There might be a way in TypeScript to express this(and there's definitely one in some über "strongly" typed language that compiles to JS), but my experience is that finding this out would be the perfect nerd snipe for me. I could have an array of objects with proper fields, but these are not initialized in the same place and a "path" ending in a string is also valid, so I would have to deal with the bureaucracy of optional fields.

---

Overall you probably don't want to do the same in a team - unless you're doing a group exercise and this is not code meant for production. Static types are to me a whip for those who take the path of least resistance - every developer has such moments, some just more frequently than others. That being said you might want to occasionally try working without the whip cracking above you and see what you create then - my guess is that if you don't, you'll miss out.
I sincerely hope this has some bit of R involved.
I do agree with you on the price point. And sometimes I do feel like I'm overpaying just to have the game up to date. Obviously I don't know any of the financials behind making such a game, but I would imagine that licensing makes up a fairly large chunk of the price.
It's just up to you, the author of the project. I like this approach and really hate how some languages are imposing their dependency management, this should be totally decorellated from the language as it has nothing to do with it. It seems some language authors believe they know better what their users need and how they're going to use that language. It makes no sense. Also many of them seem to have never heard about cross-compiling!
You generalized tarot and astrology based on the predictive elements often seen in the media.

Yes, this is certainly more "far-reaching" than other env vars. But If you have the ability to wreak havoc even if ld-linux wouldn't check for this (obv. PATH being the prime example, but unsetting HOME will almost certainly break some software written by novices (not falling back to the home specified in /etc/passwd)).

And I also could imagine that tools that allow setting arbitrary env vars might filter common troublemakers like PATH, but almost certainly not niche env vars that change the bahviour of ld-linux.

Sometimes, for a decade or so? Steam was released in 2003. So you've been on steam to play twice, maybe, since then?
> But in longer code snippets full Hindley-Milner type inference can cause hard-to-understand type errors.

I would love to see examples of this. We've gotten much better on this front over the years, but I'm sure there are plenty of cases yet to be addressed.

The "problem" with improving error messages is that the common and easy cases are addressed early, leaving only the uncommon and difficult to address left after a while, and people get used to the understandable errors which leaves them baffled when they encounter one that isn't.

That would be true if each combination could only be bought once.

However, as you cannot know in advance how many other players will play, or what numbers they will select, you cannot properly calculate an EV. Further, lottery players rarely play randomly. A winning combination made up exclusively of numbers less than 31 has a higher chance that someone else will have the same numbers (as many people use birthdays to pick the numbers they will play).
In fact, editors used to be one such concern, when they were limited or getting extremely slow with large files. Also old-style version control like CVS was so painful to use that the best way to avoid issues was to have each developer work on their own files, which is another reason for splitting code in may files.
