There is in fact associated behavior; it is just moved off the object in an effort to avoid the after-effects of many languages which implement "OOP". Behavior doesn't have to be part of the object directly, in fact I support your idea that objects can be inert, but behavior inheritance is still an extremely useful concept even within the scenario you propose.

As for your specific example, you don't have to add the behavior of actually playing the sound or animating to your `sword` or `player`; I never suggested that the objects themselves having to perform effects being an inherent part of object programming. Maybe you can send `player wieldedWeapon attackSprite` (or `attackMesh`, I'm fond of 2D platformers better :) and then the scene can ask the animation to render itself, same with `player target hurtSound` and `player wieldedWeapon attackSound` and then the sound object can be asked to play itself with a given `audioContext`. Here, we're being as declarative as can be and still giving the objects the freedom to behave however they want within the bounds of the contract they adhere to.

So an object programming style does not, in fact, preclude you from making "POD objects"; it only says that the behavior of an object should be exposed through the object itself, rather than reflectively deciding on what the object should do from the outside.
Poland was right next to Romania up until 1939.
Oh no, their digital tulips!

Though on second thought that's hardly a fair comparison. At least if you planted a tulip bulb you might get a beautiful flower for your efforts. An NFT of a mutated ape is good for precisely bupkis.

The Debian default desktop environment seems more polished out of the box than it used to. It's very dumbed-down corporate Gnome non-power-user, but you can just GUI click for your settings, and everything works.

Yes, you can just get work done with it on ThinkPads (both modern ones, and many older ones).

Debian also offers you a few other desktop environment options, some of which will need more tweaking than the default.

Personally, I ignore all of these, and did my config files tweaking atop Xorg and Xmonad, years ago, and keep using mostly the same setup with each major Debian version since then.

(So far, Debian hasn't forced ads onto my start menu, reverted my explicit opt-outs, spied on me, manipulated me against my interests to suit someone else's business or promotion criteria, etc.)
Isn't the big issue not bots reading but bots generating? You could allow bots in a read only fashion.
Using "they" to denote genderless singular has been common in English for more than a century.
I don't think "jaded" is the right word---it's like saying homelessness is increasing because people are jaded with habitation. The problem with college is the same as the problem with housing: the cost has climbed much more rapidly than wages. People on the margins fall out of the market as a result. Why does everyone act as though this is mystifying?
> The flipside is the refusal of people to acknowledge the good news that we do have -- like solar and wind power.

No one is ignoring it. We're rapidly deploying both technologies all over the place. It's exciting that real money is flowing into the industry. Fusion has speculator money, and Fusion gets extra attention because it's sold as basically, the cure to all energy problems, forever and ever.
Probably my favorite novella of all time! I especially appreciated how the revelations near the end kind of re-contextualized the entire thing :)

In my experience 'sid' is what you typically use on desktops, 'testing' on servers you actively maintain, and 'stable' for servers that you just want to keep running without much fuss. 'sid' can have some interim issues, but nothing significant enough that it would disqualify it from desktop use; and 'testing' is really solid already for those who don't feel like power users much.
Because then I have the decryption key (the baz).
Given others are giving their Wikipedia edit stories I'll do mine. I am not usually a Wiki editor for context, so I was editing from an IP without an account.

I was reading the page for a weaponry used by civilians when I noticed someone had linked to a protest page but had labelled the link "x riots" instead of "x protests" -- this seemed a little odd to me.

I edited the page to correct the link's text to match the page it pointed to. Within a day it was reverted, I re-reverted and asked the other editor for their rationale. They stated it was important to note that weapons are used by rioters and not protestors and reverted the change once again.

I made one last revert to keep my change, cited npov plus some other wiki customs the offending editor had been ignoring and asked them to just edit the wording if they felt so strongly about the nuances.

And they did. The other person, a power editor, conceded that this unrelated page was not the appropriate place to argue the semantics of a protest vs a riot and they reworded that section while keeping my edit.

Just thought I'd chime in, since positive reviews are naturally rarer than negative ones.

Fantastic. I'm all for it.

Not a big fan of someone being able to evade all sorts of gun laws by 3D printing their own gun. There's already far too many nutcases who own far too many guns - allowing them to print their own guns and ammo to avoid being on some sort of watchlist is just a really slippery slope.

I'm all for people owning guns, I support the 2nd amendment vigorously, but there's a reason the words "highly regulated" appears in the 2nd amendment.

Sick and tired of fringe nutcases (supported by the gun lobby) saying any and all regulations are a threat to the freedoms we all enjoy as Americans.

I used to do Gitlab and bitbucket, but it was more effort. The UI/UX isn't as nice, from the frequent logging in, difficulty of finding repos, reviewing PRs, and so on.

GitHub just works. Monthly outages are rare and it's git; your data is code is all on your device.
Not a reliable information source.
The approach that will work:

1. Have a service worth paying for.

Great idea!
Now we need a seperate thread or spreadsheet of books by eminent authors that present contradictory viewpoints!
I have not used any distro except of Debian-like for more than few days. But scare of systemd makes me think about trying other ones, maybe Devuan.
How do they expect to enforce this? Especially against open-source browsers, or companies without a presence in France?

One disadvantage of globalization is that you get to see the dumb ideas of all politicians. Somehow, the good ideas don't cumulate the same way...
This might be a naive question, but are driverless lanes being considered? For instance we have bike lanes all over the US. It might make sense to make a similar investment for AI-friendly lanes to help transition to driverless transportation.
Plus there is an opportunity for all the cars to learn the same lesson at once and forever.

Also humans can learn from this too. It’s not hard to imagine a new type of safety cone that has an explicit sign for autonomous vehicles to stop far far away.

I simply don't see that there's a big enough difference between traditional garbage collection, refcounting and manual memory management. Each of those can already be implemented in pure WASM (without the new GC support), just more or less awkwardly.

As for "just another ISA", there have been CPUs which had separate call- and data-stacks, with the call-stack living on the CPU and not directly accessible to code. In that sense WASM isn't much different then those esoteric CPUs, yet those also implemented "just another ISA".

And even though WASM might not allow free control flow, I yet have to see a noticeable performance difference between WASM and native for this type of "worst case code":

Thank you for all your hard work put into htmx and indeed promoting hypermedia driven applications!

Since htmx works by way of custom attributes, can you write a bit about a11y recommendations for developers using htmx? It would seem to me that a lot of things that we get from using standard attributes are lost, and we’d need to do more nuts-and-bolts type work with regards to dom structure and aria attributes. Or does the htmx engine deal with this to generate relevant aria attributes etc.? I couldn’t find any references to this in the documentation.
Starbucks is rather bad coffee though, without all the syrups you will notice it more. Honestly I have a bean to cup (Krups, previously also had DeLonghi) and prefer to take a small thermos along for decent lukewarm coffee all day rather than to pay outrageous amounts for mediocre coffee and a throwaway cup. Living in Italy or Portugal I'd probably not need that as there is excellent espresso at every corner, but most other countries it's hit and miss and the Anglosphere generally just bad coffee.

That's an edge case made specifically to be MITM'd by the network you're on. It's also a pretty good example of what someone with control of the network can do to any non-encrypted connection.
XDG didn't (IMO) make things worse, but it also didn't help as much as it should have. My `~/.config` is the largest subdirectory of `~`, because every Chromium/Electron-based application uses `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/$APP_NAME/Service Worker/CacheStorage` and `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/$APP_NAME/Cache` (and a few other cache directories) instead of sticking those in `${XDG_CACHE_HOME}/$APP_NAME`.
Adding to this something that may be useful to know is how to induce a migraine in anyone. I learned this by mistake as I take a lot of supplements and that forced me down some research rabbit holes. If one takes Immunoglobulins G/A/M and raises their levels too high it will most certainly induce a migraine even in people that never get them. It turns out that when peoples immunoglobulin levels are too high it is expected they will get a migraine. I think it would be interesting if people that often get migraines were to check their IGG/IGM/IGA/IGB levels. This can be a sign of an infection or worse somewhere in the body if this occurs without consuming immunoglobulins. Some foods can raise these levels as well. If someone already had elevated levels then some foods can be a trigger, especially anything with vitamin A which we all need.
I second this. There's no reason unix tools should follow convention designed for macOS GUI applications.

I also prefer XDG because it separates between XDG_DATA_HOME, XDG_STATE_HOME, and XDG_RUNTIME_DIR. The macOS convention does not.
It's sad that people who have forgone higher financial reward and pursued a life of exploration and discovery are prevented from discussing their work unless the rent-seeking middleman gets paid.

The comparison means nothing about relative risk or biological impacts… very different frequencies interact with biological systems and penetrate tissues differently. Microwaves can rotate charged molecules, and penetrate deeply. Sunlight can ionize biological molecules, but only on the surface (skin).
How do you power the grid with 90% solar when the sun only shines 40% of the day during the winter?

Renewable optimists consistently under-estimate the storage problem by orders of magnitude. We don't have enough batteries on Earth to hold one single day's worth of electricity. And for us to actually rely on solar, we would need to store multiple months of electricity to survive the winter.

Solar is cheap because you're comparing a generation source that works on occasion with a generation source that works 24/7.

I'm not anti-solar at all. But I am realistic about what we can and can't do with it. The thing that will make a solar grid practical _today_ is focusing on variable loads. When the sun is shining, we should be cranking the AC of every home and office, smelting aluminum, filling dams, etc.
Is society in decline?
Close call. I know of a similar case where a fire suppression systems check ended up with massive data loss in a very large storage array.
The obsession with efficiency is disingenuous too. The two limiting factors are generation capacity and cost/economics. Efficiency by itself says nothing.
In the early 1900s, gas was less efficient than electricity too, but for a whole century gasoline powered transportation was more feasible. Aviation is still only feasible with kerosene despite it being less efficient than electric propulsion.
> 2) I’ve thought about this problem a lot. Like to a very unhealthy degree… To the extent that I’ve been working on a visual dvcs full time for over a year, that interops visual programming tools with textual codebases that use textual version control. When you say you solved this, is it because you expect users of your tool to be able to understand and reason about however you’re storing your state to disk? Xcode does this with the infamous project.pbxproj and it still causes immense merge conflict pain to this very day (and it’s one file), on the other end of the spectrum, large game studios have basically forgone dvcs to use shader editors at scale. If your language tool is simple enough to reason about textually, doesn’t that limit the utility of your language? I don’t mean in the sense that you make it deliberately hard to reason about your ast equivalent but presumably it wouldn’t take much complexity before a bad merge conflict could break relations and make malformed states. How do you handle that without writing a hand rolled merge driver for each vcs you support?

In my humble opinion this is kind of the breaking point of almost all higher order programming tools. I think it’s also the reason most “no-code” or “design-to-code” tools feel like a sham to engineers. I’d love to hear how you overcame merge conflicts for your tool, I’m skeptical, but I’m all ears.
The NYT argument is going to be that they put up a site, own the copyright for their content and make that content available for either a human to read it for themselves, or software to index for something commonly understood as a search engine. Those terms do not entitle the training of LLMs for commercial use. Therefore, cease and desist. Oh and destroy anything that was created by violating the terms of our license.

You can make arguments like a) what is ChatGPT but a different kind of search engine, or b) what is an LLM but a primitive human, or c) but but uhh we didn’t agree to these terms.

But I do not think those arguments will prevail.
It's nice that we named it so forward-thinking. Not a necessarily Completely Automated Public Turing test to Keep Computers Out.

Yeah, I'd agree that's pretty sane behavior. But as someone with one of those rural addresses I can say that most of the time you're not able to override it.
It'll be a dark, sick twist that driverless cars will get their own protected lanes in many American cities before bikes do.
I believe that all other factors kept the same, angle does matter b/c of the amount and time you spend going through the atmosphere.

e.g. a shallower angle means you pass through more atmosphere which leads to more heating time which in turn means to "icier" asteroids burning off more of the ice.

I can also imagine a scenario where the asteroid passes so close that it passes through the atmosphere but doesn't actually hit the earth.
That's a whole bunch of unearned certainty, but the same point applies to a post-apocalyptic resurgence of humanity; the second industrial revolution is going to be missing the readily accessible coal and oil that drove the first one along.

From the article:

first of all, few scientists in this country can speak knowledgeably about the health effects of wireless technology.

I think this dramatically underestimates the number of scientists and engineers who work with RF at dangerous frequencies.
Serious question - can governments put mandates on open source software? How would that work? How could it work?
Let's see if white hydrogen turns into something real. Could be bad for anyone invested in electrolytes, but great for fuel cells, etc.
It doesn't look overcomplicated. When the average goes up, the number of 5 stars ratings (usually) goes up too, but the distinction between a 4.4 and a 4.6 is harder to spot than that between 40% and 60% 5 star rating (in this example, all ratings are either 4 or 5). So you could argue it offers a better discrimination.

But, it also really looks like they want to hide information that would stop you from buying a product. I know the "don't attribute to malice" maxim, but this is Amazon: they know what they're doing. You don't get to be this size by just fumbling around. They are obsessed with the look of their pages, keeping changes minimal, so they've thought about this long and hard. This change does look like a dark pattern.
Apps dumping cache/state into ~/.config/myapp/ is still better than ~/.myapp in the vast majority of situations. I can still usually afford to sync / strongly back up ~/.config even with a few bad apples barfing heavyweight cache/data there (and I can always use ignore rules), while syncing all of $HOME is just a nonstarter.
Probably mostly a consequence of how desirable these things would be. Both room temperature semiconductors and fusion would completely reshape society and re-draw the geopolitical map to a degree we haven't seen since the industrial revolution. We'd find ourselves in an age where oil was nearly worthless.

So there's a lot of money and glory at stake if you can demonstrate you're making headway toward any of these goals.

There's a parallel to alchemy in all this. Before we knew it wasn't impossible to create gold through chemical processes, it seemed like a very appealing quest indeed. You have figures like Newton spending an inordinate amount of time and effort trying to figure it out.
1% of the population of the US is about 3million people. A 60% increase means an additional 1.8 million brain or spinal cord tumors. Now multiply that by about 10 to cover the global urban population. If some of the findings are real the impacts might be even worse in rural areas where network is more spotty so phones are more likely to increase intensity of radiation.
Have you filed a bug report?
I didn't know they're working on it, so thanks for the pointer. But clearly not something you can use yet. Unless somehow you only target bleeding edge Chrome.

But that's an important advancement.
Good luck trying to regulate how other people can smell in public. Littering at least is a very visible blight that can be somewhat enforced.
OK, preferred language. I don't think that changes the validity of the point I was making.

A type system is for internal consistency though. Facts are about external consistency with real world data. And even then facts are always a social augmentation in that they are always captured in a given social context, and by that I include the lenses of theoretical frameworks and axiomatics. They always have a spin they can lose when considered from another standpoint and at the very minimum they are conditioned by attention and relevancy, and it has everything to do with our current representation of the world and nothing with the world itself.

This is really cool, makes me nostalgic for a lot of time georeferencing random maps from the library of congress or from municipal archives etc.

In that same vein, you could add a feature where users could contribute georeferenced map files for community review and approval--I think that would really increase your scalability. I see you have an email for that currently.
I if any such pathways remain at AWS, Google, Apple and MS that would still allow a thing like that to happen.

Shazam works with a signal processing technique ("fingerprinting" - https://patents.justia.com/assignee/shazam-entertainment-ltd) that aims to re-recognize the song as originally recorded - so its design goal was "Which song is playing here?" or more precisely "Which song from my database is played here (again)?" rather than "Which is the closest match from my database to this new song rendition/'cover'?".

You can imagine it like a sequence of hash codes or shingles (for modeling gaps/pauses to borrow a term from Web page similarity) for subsequent parts of the songs.

Notably, Shazam does not aim to transcribe the lyrics; so the OP's approach may potentially claim some novelty here. In any case, this experiment shows how great large pre-trained neural language models are for rapid prototyping to put something together quickly - perhaps to test feasibility before attempting to develop something better and more bespoke.

In a related note, Apple may be working on a similar service, at least they filed a related patent application:
