I can only speak anecdotally about my experience when I was young and now that I am much older. When I was young I went from about 69' MSL to about 6780' MSL when doing a job at the Air Force Academy and we dared each other to run up some stairs. We made it about half way up and fell over laughing and gasping for air. Our team chief that smoked about a half a carton of cigarettes a day walked right past us shaking his head. For about a week or so I had some pressure in my leg near the hip but it cleared up.

I am much older now and a couple years ago I retired/moved from about 600' MSL to 6300' MSL and it took about a half of a year for my body to adjust including some pain in my legs with some associated popping and other weird pressure like feeling similar to what I had when younger but it took longer to go away. Probably too many decades behind a computer and not enough walking. I've had no feelings of self defenestration.
Not at all, it's a breath of fresh air. It's much less of a check buganizer, check email, write code, push CL cycle. Work is very project focused with high flexibility, my current team isn't even pushing to g3 and using different build systems entirely just because we wanted some more flexibility for example, and it doesn't matter as long as we are getting results.

The problems are a lot more technical though and I don't see a lot of L3s being able to work in the environment as it requires a lot more intuition and experience.

I usually work 45hours a week, but I don't mind it. Plus I'm 100% WFH here cause my management isn't dealing with in office bs.
Great points, but the word exonerated makes no sense in that context.
A lot of people who were using say Google Maps in their apps thought the same thing, until Google drastically increased the prices...
This is fantastic, will try it out this week! Thanks!

If you want to be productive in Python writing web apps you really should consider Django + django-ninja + PyCharm.
CMake doesn't fetch your dependencies for you and ensure they're the version that your code is compatible with.

I've cloned 5 year old C++ repos that use cmake and it's quite an effort to build them, mostly due to finding all the dependencies correctly versioed.
Yii, yep, this checks out. Recently I needed to transpose a few pieces, so I opened a trial with the intention of just using their app software to transpose a contributor's piece down a few keys so I can manually tabulate it for the lute.

The website claims that you require the closed source mobile app and a pro account for the transposition feature (and makes no mention that the open source software natively supports this). Argh! Stupid, stupid, stupid.

I decided not to go for the (partial) refund, and have half a mind to go in there and just grab all their midis for some generative AI come-uppance (not that you really can... you are limited to 300 scores per month), but the only people that hurts are those poor kids who were conned into submitting their arrangements to that platform. Bad feelings all around.
I guess we might be better off if Pol Pot had killed more smart people than he did. Maybe Trump will win and finish off the rest of us and you can be happy.

We dill die fighting though, good luck
Gotta start somewhere. I hope this contributes to some more momentum in the right direction, both legally and in the zeitgeist more broadly.

Was also surprised to read that Montana emits as much ghg’s as Ireland.
Totally agree.

So far the best thing that I've seen in wildlife for c/c++ code is just outsourcing everything into docker container with build tools, that you have with qmk: https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_docker. It has it's downsides, but it's just 2 commands to have built binary, one of which is to clone git repository.

I really had high hopes for Bazel, that they will either package or reuse some standard build tools configurations and just let use them by referencing them in single place in workspace, and the rest is going to handled by build system, but it doesn't seems like this is how it does work now and will work in observable future. If you want it this hermetic, you need to do it on your own.

The problem is, like the Bible, all of these can be interpreted in a number of ways. It’s no wonder it’s spawned dozens of religious sects in corporations.
This is like that episode of Billions where they think they find the Limitless drug but it just makes them say nonsense.
You don't need to fear looking stupid. You gotta learn about it sometime ;)
If I remember correctly, the lower ranking navy members weren't even allowed access to the strong stuff. Only the officers who had to dilute it before giving it to the others.
Kiva has been one of my main ways to give for many years. I've noticed that the pickings have been slimmer, and variety worse, for the past few. I'd chalked it up to effects of the pandemic, but damn. I've certainly noticed how much harder they push for donations to them when checking out.

This really bums me out.
Yeah, physician (pathologist, specifcally) with a degree in physics here. I'm going through articles in other tabs right now just because I'm skeptical enough to consider crazy ideas (always good to build bulwarks), this is, at best hypothetical, but mainly the chain of causality in the above statements is a hot mess.

I spend a lot of time looking at cell membranes. More than almost all of humanity. The naive Fluid Mosaic Model is certainly incomplete, but let's let Dr. Nicholson himself (the author of the original description) have a chance to provide his update first (1). So, yes, there's lot of other stuff going on, but certainly the basic organizing concepts are intact.

I'll allow the idea that the transfer of ions across the membrane is a thermodynamic effect. Of course it is. The whole nitrogen vs helium thing works well enough in my mind with just "thermodynamics". Yeah, sure.

But this statement "The action potential itself is the propagation of this solid phase" does not pass the sniff test for me. The action potential is a self-propagating electric field tripping channels along the way, propagating along inner and outer surfaces of the membrane, the channels are what make it self-propagating. Nothing about the concept of "solid" makes sense at these scales in a biological system. Everything is just more or less bound, and that neighbor-to-neighbor binding is entirely secondary to the mammoth electrical field whipping down the axon.

Except there is no "legitimate argument" here. Just throwing emotive words around and hoping some of that sticks.

If you feel like the matter of "a certain minority" in China is any way relevant to what Nazis did, then maybe you wasted your time at school and should open up a history book and look up what exactly was the context of what Nazi were doing to Jewish and Romani people.

As distasteful as China's actions might seem to be, their end goal is assimilation, unlike Nazi's goals of isolation and physical extermination - I'll refer you to the fate of "The Association of German National Jews" on this one.

Westsplaining is just a phenomenon of certain people rationalizing their own xenophobia without actually caring about the principles they talk about so much when trying to take some moral highground. Which is why the "history" (as if it happened too long ago or seized to be the case now, yeah, right) of western civilization dealing with similar issues is "irrelevant". This term should be in the "see also" section under "looking at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and paying no attention to the plank in your own eye".

You can condemn all you want, but I don't personally see why objectively China should deserve to be treated any worse than say United States, that had fared far worse in similar situations, like it's reaction to 9/11 with torching a whole other fucking side of the planet, or it's ICE detention camps - the last one being actually much closer to Nazi isolation policies than China's assimilation policy of Wahhabism-leaning minorities.
Here, most trollies take a 50c-€2 coin to unlock so this rarely happens. I usually use a US quarter instead of a €2 though.
There are a LOT of privacy issues out there and it doesn’t help when a small(ish) company that is likely doing the right thing gets ‘named and shamed’ by people who have no idea what they’re talking about but want some of that internet karma for outing them.

Shame on the submitter here for submitting it two hours ago when the post on reddit that corrects this misreading was made thirteen hours ago.
That's not my experience, and I've been writing C# since .NET 1.1. Obviously though it depends on the scale of the app. If you have 1m+ LoC, you really need to have some sort of structure, regardless of the language.
No, it's unofficial.

No, I was not talking about cause.

Take a look. I specifically mentioned correlation twice and nothing else.
I want to know wyat this constitutional right to "clean and healthful environment in Montana for present and future generations" is. Is it a state constitution thing? The article told us nothing about the case.
I need you to share your typical day in excruciating detail, please.
I am absurdly and instinctually confident that LLM personas will replace at least the public face of politicians almost instantly. The problem is the back end work.
The reason they're having success in Montana is because Montana's constitution says "The state and each person shall maintain and improve a clean and healthful environment in Montana for present and future generations"

It would be nice if we could amend the US constitution with something similar.
Never going to happen. The standards group doesn't define the tooling. Every vendor has its own set compiler flags, error messages and ABI. Its also used on architectures where the target hardware has to be complied for on a completely different architecture, i.e. embedded devices.

Its too complex of a problem to be solved by a committee with competing interests.
> That means you have a mix of FORTRAN, ada, c, rust, some custom internal corporate language, and so on all mixed with the C++. If your build system cannot handle that mess i'm not interested

In that case I would just use the rust toolchain which I'm sure can handle this stew.
Yes, but: https://twitter.com/nipafx/status/1676908785313492992

"JDK21 is a version, for which many vendors offer support."

tl;dr: the Java version is not what gets "long-term support", it's a specific runtime JDK released by some Java vendor, e.g., Oracle, Eclipse Adoptium, Azul, Microsoft, Amazon (Coretto), etc.
Oh no! Met him once a few years ago, really nice dude. Rip
Are there temperature or sampling parameters for generate.regex? I'm poking around trying to generate password mnemonics (https://rmmh.github.io/abbrase/), and it really doesn't like actually giving me proper words:

Oh, because you think they are dumber than you?

Well they are going to have to suffer the consequences of your smarty-pants bad decisions for way longer than you, so I say, we give them a vote proportional to the statistically average remaining years they have left on this planet.
And the womens studies program has no cuts. They are keeping the programs they think are important - the ones that prop up their luxury beliefs.

I do not want it to fetch dependencies. I download those once and include it as a copy per project. Update on on-need basis. Over the years I have accumulated enough. To start new project all I have to do is - clone template directory and I am ready to go.
Sure, if you have TS in your backend. There are OpenAPI to zod generators that can help get you started, even if they don’t give you perfect zod schemas out the gate.
My read is that the people who do well in trades are smart, hard-working and ambitious. That combination of traits tends to do well no matter where they are applied.

While there is plenty of money to be made in the trades, one thing that gets ignored is, as you said, the working conditions. Further, those working conditions compound over the years and absolutely wreck bodies.
I have a few simple bit questions in my coding interviews and most programmers simply don't know how to set a bit in a byte (or word), rotate bits in a byte (or word), or what endian is.
Under the caption, the paragraph mentions they were being nicknamed that by attendees. It's not The Register being funny. (Well, they didn't start it anyway.)
In practice you need a global coordinate system. For example, you'd create a "spawn point" for all players, and then, before the game starts, move them to their starting positions at a fraction of c. The game is still keeping track of units within this initial coordinate system, and transform those coordinates for the player. The reverse is done for player decisions. There is effectively an in-game "star network" that mediates between player. Each player/unit has a unique light cone associated with it.

Nothing stops us from arbitrarily designating a particular reference frame as "preferred" in a simulation; SR merely says that such a choice is truly arbitrary. Note also that this system could work recursively, such that new units must always spawn at the spacetime location of older units, and do information management (behind the scenes) in a similar way. This would turn the network into a tree - and the transforms are relatively cheap (and we could use a Spacetime algebra library!)

Note that I don't think this works for a traditional RTS like C&C or Supreme Commander. But rather a game like Civilization, but galaxy spanning (and spanning very long periods of time), where the smallest objects are something like "suns" and "fleets". The individual lives of humans would come and go as these vast battles took place over thousands of years. You'd only need to add magic like a 1g constant acceleration drive - and a strong rule against using this to directly kill planets - and assume that the fleets are actually large-ish asteroids fitted with the drives and a human and/or robotic crew.

The spawn point would then be, fittingly, Sol.
Rowan Ellis makes good videos. They're usually more serious than that one, though!
We have CGNAT and NAT46 and NAT64 and all sorts of tunnels today. It doesn't take a lot of current experience to imagine how much a v6 dependent on v4 and tunneled through v4 solution feels bad for the edges.

The problem with IPv6 deployment has never had anything to do with lack of tunnels, "temporary" or otherwise, we've had that technology all along.

It does matter if the major interconnects upgrade. We've got decades of data now if you want to science it.

In your scheme if you aren't mandating every v4 address be a NAT "forever", then you've at best got huge sections of "dark" addresses that can't properly be used without some traffic accidentally blackholed. If you do mandate it you run the risk of bad actors taking advantage of it and toll bridging the chokepoints at the tunnels. (Which is also in theory a massive man-in-middle security risk.) Either way you are locked into the whims of IPv4 address owners and the mistakes of past IPv4 allocations (including all the early /8s that went to big companies just because they asked the right year and the fact that the large continent of Africa has never had anywhere near enough address space, and a fraction in comparison to Europe and the Americas).

I really don't see the economic incentives that would have made that addressing system better than the IPv6 we got, but I certainly see a lot of them that would have made things much worse.
From the article:

This prohibition, 16 plaintiffs ages 5 to 22 successfully argued, violates their constitutional right to a "clean and healthful environment in Montana for present and future generations."

1. I wonder if there are other activities that could be banned outright for violating Montanans constitutional right to "clean and healthful environment in Montana for present and future generations."

2. I also wonder if there are activities and goods that Montana is compelled to legalize using this same constitutional right.
Yes, well-known. Likely an “ear teaming” issue. Good binaural hearing is very important to filtering speech.
Yes, you're 100% correct, I mixed some stuff up when I was posting the code for simplicity.

Bad example!

"neuroscientists" and the like go deep in the weeds with what/how different chemicals interact with cells, neurons, etc; but in general i don't read a lot of papers that try to answer "why". Scientists studied automobiles and discovered that applying pressure to a lever in the car causes the motion of the car to slow and possibly stop. End of paper, we proved cars stopped when we put pressure on a lever. No mention of friction anywhere.

I've been balking about this since at least 2006-2007 online and in person, and it took about a decade for studies that showed "why", not just "how/what". Then again, most people don't know that our bodies have dedicated receptors for nicotinoids, cannibinoids, opioids. Most people also don't know that tomato ketchup has nicotine in it, or that nearly all grasses contain the precursors to opioids in them. Once your intestines get a substance, nearly all bets are off as to what comes out, at what rate, and what volume.

So, essentially, that neuroscientists disagree isn't novel. They're laser focused on the post hoc, rather than the cause(s).
Lots of companies are spending a ton of money on office leases and a lot of loans and debt are tied up in commercial real estate (feel free to google), so your choice is either get the proles back in the office or take a haircut trying to get out of your lease (and if enough companies do that, it's going to kick the legs out from under a huge chunk of the economy).

And a lot of executives like LARPing Big Important Business Guys and walking the parapets to survey their domain which is much harder to do when everyone is on Zoom.

Here is a true story from several jobs ago: it was a small company and the CEO was fond of saying "people don't work when they work from home."

One day they were doing some construction on the building and the workers literally cut through the internet cable to the office. It was going to take a few days to repair.

Even then we still had to come sit in the office even though we were an internet based company with an internet based product and even things like our code repos and all that were online so we couldn't do much of anything.

He very begrudgingly let the customer service people go work from home but the rest of us had to sit in the office without internet just in case it came up.

I, of course, had to say something.

"Surely in this case," I say, "if we were to go home and do literally any work, it would be an improvement over the 0 work we can do right now. Like any work at all is an improvement, yes?"

He sighed and shook his head because I, a fool, just didn't get it.

"But you could work if we had internet," he said, and then grew larger and larger as he powered up to destroy me, "and anyway, people don't work when they work from home".
Yes. The text is here, https://leg.mt.gov/bills/mca/title_0000/article_0090/part_00... . It's very vague, probably intentionally, and the working interpretation is whatever the court just decided it is.
Wait until you hit the terrible performance of Python. C#/.NET will outperform Python every single day.
The lack of a network call doesn't prove the extension is safe. It might cache some data you want to keep private, and send it periodically.

See you wouldn't have that problem if you had a companion Rabbit, for the low low price of all your money.
The purpose of escape analysis is to avoid situations where other code or data structures could potentially reference stack-allocated memory. IOW, all stack-allocated data is only referenced from the local function invocation frame, presumably using stack relative addressing, but if not at least the scope of pointer updates is substantially narrowed.

Relatedly, unlike languages like Java, Go doesn't have a moving GC--once something is allocated on the heap, the address is fixed.

I'm not sure how realistic it is to code in an entirely malloc-less style in Go, though, given the limited ability to pass references to stack-allocated objects.
What “is” is.
Last time I did, we got the product shipped by the deadline. Only to find the marketing team had messed up their Google account and couldn't do any of the planned launch advertising or tracking. Took them two weeks to sort that out. No hint of an apology or any of the fireworks that would have happened if we'd been two weeks late delivering the product. So yeah, I'm with you. Never again.
What would panicing gain them? Honestly if anything it's more amazing that people still go into panic at all - it seems almost like a kind of learned helplessness thing.

Oh yes I forgot about that, that can be annoying. But of course, when it's annoying because it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter and you can pass anything back `as id`.
