It's really a philosophical problem rather than a practical one. Think of the car as a black box, one costs $10k less and has less features. This is normal and well accepted. Does the fact that the features are actually there but locked matter considering the end result you get as a consumer is identical in both scenarios?
The much more surprising move is that they've just passed legislation to reduce bureaucracy for setting up photovoltaic installations.

a theory explains all the data you have gathered, including tests that the theory predicted. When you collect data that the theory fails to explain, you look for a hypothesis that makes some predictions that you could test. If the new data you collect is according to your hypothesis, then your hypothesis is on the way to being part of the theory.

stop calling an earnest effort to choose the right word "nitpicking".

If our theories of matter, energy, space-time and relativity rule out the hypothesis for interstellar trade, that is not a theory of interstellar trade. If our theories of matter, energy etc. rule in interstellar trade, that's an interstellar trade hypothesis.

Good luck! The token/sec will be under your expectations or it will overheat. You really shouldn't play games with your data-storage. You could try it with an old laptop to see how bad it performs. Ruining your NAS for this is a bit over the top to show, that "it worked somehow".

It feels more natural to you because of familiarity. However, if you've learned Iverson Bracket notation in math (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iverson_bracket) then the APL approach will probably feel more natural, because it's a more direct expression of the mathematical foundations. Of course, the actual APL version is by far the most natural once you're familiar with the core ideas: +/ages>17

Some feedback on readability: the article utilizes the term "logarithmic weight-balance" 6 times without explaining what it is (and several more times after). On the 7th mention, it links to a paper: "Frias[40] published top-down logarithmic weight-balance trees in 2005, under advice from Roura." But the referenced paper doesn't mention logarithmic weight-balance even once, I think [40] calls them "Logarithmic binary search trees", and links to "Roura S., 2001, A new method for balancing binary search trees".

After reading the last paragraph:

"Any current red-black tree implementation in practice can be replaced by a logarithmic weight-balance tree to achieve better balance, better performance, and get positional access as a bonus, all with a simpler algorithm."

... it is clear the article is advocating for these, and the title should hence be something like "Advantages of logarithmic weight-balanced Trees over other balanced trees", or something like that, immediately followed by an explanation of what these are, and what other people call them.

The repository linked at the top includes a lot of stuff and makes it hard to find a logarithmic weight-balance tree implementation, lost in all other kinds of trees in there. Would be helpful to see a separated logarithmic weight-balanced tree go module for people looking forward studying its source code.

> Research team used advanced sequencing technology to analyze Ötzi’s genome to obtain a more accurate picture of the Iceman’s appearance and genetic origins // Ötzi's genome was decoded for the first time more than ten years ago. This was also the first time the genome of a mummy had been sequenced. The results provided important insights into the genetic makeup of prehistoric Europeans. Advances in sequencing technology have now enabled a research team from the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology and Eurac Research to reconstruct Ötzi’s genome more accurately. The results of this recent analysis refine the Iceman’s genetic picture: compared to other contemporary Europeans, Ötzi’s genome has an unusually high proportion of genes in common with those of early farmers from Anatolia. And, contrary to previous findings, at the time of his death, Ötzi had advanced hair loss and may have even been bald. Furthermore, his skin was darker than previously thought. Ötzi’s genes also show a predisposition to diabetes and obesity (Cell Genomics, 16 August 2023).
Superconductors have a critical current density (Ampere/m^2) that varies with temperature and external magnetic field[0]. So if you want more current, you need to use a bigger wire (and/or make it cooler). YBCO HTS tapes have enough current density for power transmission[1].

Love this evocation. Although you missed a chance to say we'd boil the oceans!
What you are apparently failing to understand is that the Netherlands is smaller than the 41st largest of 50 states in the US (West Virginia). The longest distance you can travel by any means whatsoever in West Virginia is about 440km. Oh, and it has mountains, too. The Netherlands is pretty much flat, cyclist-friendly terrain.

Let's also not forget that the US pretty much has no bike infrastructure. You can say "well, that's your fault," but it's not the fault of the SUV drivers; it's the fault of city planners who plan for anticipated demand by cyclists, rather than leading with infrastructure to encourage cycling. This predictably leads to a lack of people wanting to cycle, for fairly rational reasons: roads built for and dominated by cars are not very safe for people riding bikes. So, the demand doesn't materialize because the infrastructure isn't here, which inhibits demand.

Oh, and yeah, the auto manufacturers had a bit to do with it as well. [0]

In any case, your ire is aimed in the wrong direction, and the "fat, out of shape American" stereotype has very little to do with it.

There are countless tools that write to the bash files though, which is not true for most programs. Bash changing its locations would break all of these.

Heck, git adopted ~/.config/git years ago, and yet just last week I ran across a tool that created and wrote to ~/.gitconfig instead of my ~/.config/git/config. If Bash tried to change then we'd be dealing with the fallout probably forever.
If you really really really have to, you can use @Query to define your own query for the repository interface method. This allows you to map, join, select, whatever you wish. The gripe is that if you don’t follow a specific wording convention, you must use @Query. JPA follows a specific convention - findByUsername or findBy (id) or findByPostAuthor(String name). There’s a whole section on how it derives sql statements from these methods.

> Screw your conventions, we've always done it this way

I don't understand this section heading. To me, software convention has the third meaning as shown on merriam webster[1]:

> 3 d : an established technique, practice, or device (as in the theater)

In that case, that we've always done it that way establishes the technique, and the established technique is the convention.

To argue that non-desktop software should apply a desktop specification that they weren't involved in developing seems rather insane, especially since they are and have been following the established convention.

Numpy is something close to APL semantics with Python syntax. There's no doubt it was heavily inspired by APL. One could argue that numpy's popularity vindicates the array model pioneered by APL, while driving a nail in the coffin of "notation as a tool of thought", or APL's version of it at any rate. Array programming has never been more popular but there's no demand for APL syntax.

I think you hit the nail on the head with crossplane being a 'much better terraform' by design. Our goal isn't so much a better IaC / Declarative infrastructure tool - it's a better overall workflow for doing collaborative DevOps work. We think that by having an active model of your component, and tracking the resources along side, we can fix the feedback loops in a way that things like crossplane, terraform, or pulumi really can't.

Of course today it's early - so you have to look at what we're building as a foundation for the future. But it's a solid foundation to build on!
Negative experimental results are valid science, aren't they?

If you believe attention is a 0-sum game (I don't, but am trying to understand), why not focus criticism on those people spending time on any number of other pursuits that are even further from fruitful. It just seems like, for whatever your idea of "fruitful" is, there are entire industries and institutions that are focused on taking attention away from fruitful pursuits.
I am thinking about this problem at Amplitude. The holy grail of the martech space has always been to predict someone's next action based on what they've done before.

We experts have to pay our bills somehow… I joke but you’re right. Spring Security works up until a point and when you want to make it do exactly what you want it to, you have to crack it open-override or extend-implement your own class (cough UserDetailService cough). Still, if you’re doing microservices with spring, spring security is enough to ensure your jwt in the request is valid. I like to pair it with more robust auth like Keycloak though if I’m going “platform” instead of monolith.
the ability to not have sandboxed local builds meant that it was easy for us to write the starlark/python code we needed to get things working in a rough way quickly, while correctness can come later.

This is an interesting issue that I've also seen across many companies - often even leading to low usage of these slow-to-bring-up environments. At relatively smaller scale, I can see physical infrastructure-based isolation being effective to solve it - with the stack coming up relatively quickly, but at larger scale (even 30+ microservices), I think an approach that uses logical / request tenancy is also worth considering - similar to https://www.uber.com/blog/simplifying-developer-testing-thro....
And yet, it is probably still much more secure than what 90% of us can whip together. I mean, maybe there's something better out there. I'm just pushing back on any suggestions that you should rather roll your own. Because, unless you're the other 10%, in an organization where continuity of that skill-set is taken care of, you definitely should not.
Time-Reversal Symmetry and Thermodynamic Forces
True as it is, not a thing you list here addresses the security of the product. Except for IaCs. And the site describes securing the product.

Will edit with commentary in a moment.

Edit: alright, fair criticism re business security controls given that the checklist's first section is specifically about business controls.

And the rest should be focusing on automating those outcomes rather than just what the outcomes are. I agree that manually creating DFDs is just going to slow teams down, though it's definitely a capability that more security-mature or regulation-burdened organizations will need. When you're this early though, better to harden IaCs based on secure reference architectures up front and lint the heck out of code than to encumber all of ones processes with manual controls.
