Creative vs consumption is how we did it too.

Learning apps or anything that requires imagination have no or very few screen time limits.

100% consumption like Netflix, D+ etc have hard daily limits and the kids can get more by doing something that doesn't require a screen.

Now we're at a level where the media viewing very rarely occupies them a 100%, in most cases there's an iPad or a computer playing a kids show for the 42nd time just as a background noise while they're doing crafts or something else.

> What does one do with a DEGREE in Chinese?

1. Teach Chinese

2. Translation and interpretation

3. Dual degree with any number of degrees (e.g., business, art, etc.) that have natural pairings due to demands in the labor market (although not sure how much demand in West Virginia specifically).

On a more real but anecdotal note, I know many language majors who have moved to the/a target language country for a year or more after graduation, and they learned more about what types of bilingual jobs were available. That led them to either get a job in one of those areas or skill up in some way (typically going back to school) to get the skills and/or credentials they needed to get the job they wanted.

On a personal note, even though I wasn’t a Japanese major, I went to Japan after college to learn Japanese better. My idea was to learn Japanese and become an “international lawyer” with a focus on Japan.

I met a few folks who did that exact job in Japan, and most of them were miserable. Needless to say, I changed the direction of my career.

Those orders had no effect (there was no additional drop), people were already doing it on their own.

> More languages should have a single, mandatory way to format code, without any ways to opt out.

Strongly disagree. Maybe if you're in a very domain constrained environment, i vould see this being valuable. But i write graphics and simulation code all day, which involves a lot of translating math expressions. A compiler insisting on me using PascalCase (like for example .net uses) leads to very unreadable translations of formulas. And I'm not of the opinion that a system making me rewrite variable names to "meaningful names" helps understanding of the underlying math much, if you need to do symbol manipulation, or read backgrounds papers anyway.

Trust your users. Give them the tools to enforce safety barriers for themselves. Give them sensible defaults, sure. But give them ways to opt-out if they know that they need to break the conventions.

I suspect getting a single item out will be that you just make a

func next[T](i iterfunc[T]) T {
var item T
i(func(it T) bool){
item = it
return true // likely
})
return item
}

and use it. Semantics should be the same as ranging would desugar to (since that's all this is), though the variable arity will be slightly annoying of course.

YMMV. two of the companies I worked at mid-post pandemic were truly hybrid when they opened back up. Some people never ever came in and a few came in everyday. Others still were very far away so it was never an option.

But I've also heard of old co-workers at later jobs where hybrid was just flowery words and really meant "mandatory remote time and mandatory office".
They probably meant that programming language designers/developers can only advance their careers by adding/implementing features, not presiding over something complete.

You can't mix and match batteries varying in wear, or address and charge arbitrary inividual cells, so it has to be just lower state of charge, e.g. 80% true charge displayed as full.
This design avoids the inefficiencies and most of the problems of having an?_iterator_, like the classical Java `hasNext`/`moveNext` or C# `MoveNext`/`Current` interfaces.
Those iterators require you to keep the state between elements as values, effectively CPS transforming and defunctionalizing the control flow of actually iterating the elements.

This iterator function here is really just a `forEach`/`Each` method where the callback can return a boolean. You can't easily use that to split iteration, say iterate the first five elements, then go do something else, and come back to iterate the rest, doing something completely different.

But that also means it doesn't have to worry, as much, about the iterator going stale because the underlying structure changes (`ConcurrentModificationError`), or not knowing when to clean up, because somebody might call `hasNext`at any later time.

So this is basically just a nicer `forEach` method.

JSONL and line-oriented version control are never going to play nicely together.

Imagine doing code review in a language where every function had to be written on one line!

The two techniques I use to dodge this:

1/ Switch from JSONL to a list of objects then pretty print it to be line oriented.

2/ Compress the test data to discourage viewing it altogether, and make people describe what’s being changed rather than leaving it up to the diff to show it.

I which stuff like libsodium would be both more widely available and more widely used.

And with "stuff" I don't mean the internal core primitives but the slightly more higher level helper which often try (in the limits of C) limit miss use and have reasonable good documentation.

E.g. crypto_secretstream_xchacha20poly1305* from https://doc.libsodium.org/secret-key_cryptography
/secretstream

Because while by now most people have understood that inventing/putting together their own low level crypto primitives is a bad idea, people using existing low level primitives to invent their own "mid level" primitives still happen more often then healthy in the industry.

If you were a rich aristocrat it’s likely that you lived under a constant threat of being killed during one of his “stalinist” style purges. Which to be fair wasn’t that odd even the “good” emperors like Claudius engaged in stuff like that.

> Notice that the review seriously considers the possibility of a lab leak, indicating that this wasn't some off-limits topic even back in 2021.

I don't think you've been following this debate for very long? The authors of the paper you've linked have worked aggressively and prolifically to destroy the reputations of anyone who suggests that SARS-CoV-2 might have arisen from a research accident. One of them described Yuri Deigin's early summary of the evidence for that as a "Turner Diary-esque manifesto". (The Turner Diaries is a novel popular among violent white supremacists, notably including Timothy McVeigh, the Oklahoma City bomber.)

https://twitter.com/angie_rasmussen/status/13462322082063810...

Their paper includes a strawman of that evidence in order to refute it. If you've mistaken that for serious consideration, then I can't believe you're familiar with the people involved here.

Is there a specific piece of evidence for zoonosis that you consider strong, and would be willing to discuss? You mentioned the "two lineages", and I explained why I thought it was weak; but then you dropped it, and mentioned many other pieces of evidence. If we change the topic with each response then this just becomes a Gish gallop, which isn't productive.

> I don't think "strongly condemning" something is the same as suppressing public debate about it.

Perhaps you don't, but Facebook did--articles like that Lancet correspondence were the justification for the ban that they applied until May 2021. Without the tremendous reputational risks taken by a small number of scientists (Yuri Deigin, Alina Chan, Richard Ebright, etc.), that false consensus could easily have held.

> Is there any hope of becoming proficient enough at chinese to compete for these jobs when you're just starting in your late teens?

Yes… sort of.

First, folks who have learned the language as adults are often better at teaching early stages of language learning. Bilingual folks may know what is right or sounds right, but they may not know why.

Second, folks who are bilingual mostly by speaking the language in their home often have a very limited scope of knowledge of the language. The range of language needed to teach at a university or to a higher level of proficiency (beyond tourist level) requires a much wider range of target language knowledge.

Third, for folks who want to become a professor, their research will matter much more than their ability to teach the nuts and bolts of the language.

Lastly, at most universities that teach Chinese, you have mostly if not exclusively grad students from China teaching the pure language stuff. Someone who has a major in Chinese will be teaching literature, linguistics, culture, or something similar.

Around here there's been semi-historically a bike culture in my city (certainly not at Amsterdam scale but one of the most bike friendly city in France). I see an increasing number of people with ev bikes, and in turn an increasing proportion of that are ev bikes that borderline being 70cc equivalent, maybe even 125cc, both in power, style, and usage (as in there are pedals but the drivers don't pedal). Except for the speed cap they're essentially more like small ev motorbikes (masquerading as ev bikes because regulations) than big ev bikes.
yes, they are, but it seems a good fit nonetheless

>I wonder how they did their selections.

They published their methodology, the metrics driving discontinuation of programs and specialties were:

- Enrollment in the major/program (as of Fall 2022)

- Enrollment trends in the major/program over a five-year period (Fall 2018-Fall 2022)

The metrics for reducing headcount were:

- Student credit hour (SCH) production trend from AY 2020 to AY 2022

- Full-time faculty headcount and trend from 2020 to 2022

- Full-time faculty-to-student ratio

- Net tuition revenue trends over 2020-2022 (Tuition revenue, based on SCH production, minus expenses)

- Total unrestricted expenses trend from 2020-2022

- Net financial position and trend from 2020-2022

Exceptions were made for:

- R1 research contributions - Doctoral programs and associated non-terminal master’s programs within a unit that has annual (FY 2022) external research expenditures of $1 million are exempted from review.

- State priority program (land-grant mission)

- Areas of distinction/differentiation

I'm sure his lawyers would love to claim otherwise, but affluenza isn't a real medical condition. The simplest answer is that he's lived his life believing that he can do anything he wants.

I haven't seen anti-vax being considered "scientific dissent."

Science is about evaluating theories; not being "for" or "against" anything.

Any group that is "pro-X" or "anti-Y" is not a scientific group—it's a political group. Anti-vax is a political group. Not a scientific dissent group. Scientific dissent is when people say "X is not true" or "Y is true."

Hmm, it looks interesting but it seems to lack a precise need that's not covered atm imo.

I also wonder how defer would be handled. After the last yield? After each yield? Should defer be executed when an iterator is not fully consumed?
The worst is "hybrid" meetings where some are in the same room and some are remote. It just doesn't work.

Fully remote meetings work for routine stuff like regular team planning etc. Where they fail is what I call the "magic meeting" where management types seem to think if they get the right people in a room together things will just magically happen. But those meetings never achieve much anyway apart from making people feel good for a while. A remote meeting just removes any illusion.

What I want is anything ARM that's actually general purpose (i.e. no SoC whose BSP only is usable on Android or whose IO peripherals barely meet standards), with full Linux upstream support for all components, and at least some performance compared to your average Intel i5.

The status quo is that the most powerful general-purpose ARM system you can get is an RPi or its clones (which both fail the performance test, and outside of the RPi a lot fail the Linux test), as the only ones actually able to buy high-performance CPUs are phone manufacturers and large hardware ODMs such as QNAP (who're using Annapurna CPUs IIRC).

Apple is the "compromise" - extremely high performance, to a tune no one other matches, but sparsely documented/supported by anything not macOS (as Asahi Linux shows), and a price tag to match.
Overhangs up to 45 degrees work fine, and usually steeper. Bridges also work, most of the time, although I am having trouble with them at the moment.

But maybe I just read too much Assimov…
I agree with you to an extent. But adding more features is always a tradeoff between introducing complexity, and supporting a use case that might not be useful in all programs.

For example, generics were a highly controversial topic, and many people still believe that Go didn't need them. I'm partially in that camp. I've encountered maybe one or two situations where generics would've been convenient since Go 1.18, and in both cases not jumping straight at the opportunity to use them, but being forced to refactor and approach the solution in a different way, has produced simpler and more readable code. To this day, I struggle with Go's generics syntax, and it just looks alien to me.

Iterators are a useful feature, but are they really generally useful to deserve a change in the language spec? Like generics, I've yet to encounter a situation where they're truly required, and when I do, implementing them myself is trivial.

So, sure, language designers can cram every programming construct we've invented in the last 50 years, as Rust and Raku have done, and many programmers will find this very convenient and flexible, but a more focused and conservative approach produces a simpler language that is easy to pickup and read. This is what drew me to Go in the first place, and lately it seems that this is changing.

Do you continue doing what it takes to be close with those friends? Do you talk every other day, for instance, like you do with your teammates? Do you share your experiences, think together, have plans and commitments?

Geographical proximity is not the most important contributor to closeness. I feel closer to random strangers on the Internet than how much I feel close to my neighbors.
