I used this strategy for implementing a regex engine. I wanted to completely imitate the Lua pattern implementation, so I generated random patterns, ran them on random strings and compared the results.

It was very pleasant to work with such a system. Nowadays I would probably fuzz the patterns with AFL somehow.

> I don't know why you're so obsessed with cost.

This whole discussion is centered around cost. The only argument presented in favor of paying SpaceX for launches is launch cost.

If it wasn't for costx why would an org like NASA even consider delegating a critical part of their mission to a third party?

By "unaffordable" people mean that median person/poor person has problem with paying for housing. Not that no one at all can afford it.
I'm not American, nor do I live in America, so my understanding of US culture is far from perfect, but from what I've seen it does appear that the vast majority of products, commercials and content in the US are aimed at white Christians. Pretty much everything I know from the USA is built around the primacy of white Christians.

You guys literally say "one nation under god", in the pledge of allegiance you say in schools and at the start of congressional sessions (according to wikipeida) and your money says "in god we trust" on it.

Who says those properties are worth their book value? This is how a crash happens these days - distressed asset holders forced into fire sales of the assets themselves, lowering asset values and putting more of the holders into distress.
Same for racism, same for sexism, same for hate in general. At this point I will just state that either you know the reason or your don't. What is quite concerning is that a lot of alleged domain experts tend to be in the later camp and we saw a lot of censorship in recent years. These are complex social dynamics, but the loudest voices in these debates failed to provide sensible and working solution against polarization.
Normally you go to library and rent the book, later you return it. There are no special payments required here. No special control. Moreover you could have made photos of the books at home, and no one will see. And most marvellous thing about it is that this is fair use.

There might be brain differences that account for this a controversial one I've seen argued is that some autistic traits can be useful for chess training and men then to have those traits in greater numbers.

That argument was made jokingly at a college chess club by one of the women, but given the overlap between autism and transgenderism I wonder if it's amplified?

Implications for generative AI aside, 14 years + single renewal for all copyrighted work seems very reasonable. The world moves at such a fast pace today that 14 years is a long time in which to monetize intellectual property.

And in the worst case, it will mean that AIs are "only" 14 years behind the times, OR, their creators only have to pay royalties for 14 years worth of human knowledge.

This is really a breathtaking legal situation.

Bankruptcy law typically trumps virtually all other laws, with not much to guide the court's discretion.

International bankruptcies are even weirder. In this case, US bankruptcy law has the power to intervene in ongoing bankruptcy proceedings in Hong Kong, Cayman's, etc.

Bankruptcy law protects debt-holders and the company, but not other stakeholders. As far as I know under US law the court has no basis to change anything for reasons of economic policy or impact. If the Hong Kong court pushes mainland Chinese interests, it's unclear to me how the other courts would respond.

Further, the due diligence required to qualify debts and debt-holders could uncover some unsettling relationships. I can imagine China viewing US bankruptcy discovery as an fishing expedition for intelligence.

Huge amounts, even larger consequences, and super-power competition would make this difficult even if the law were programmatic, but here so much depends on the court's discretion, and the court itself is the finder of fact. ("So much depends/on the red wheel barrow"?)

In the US we're lucky that these proceedings are mostly in the open and on the record (albeit sometimes only to record the results of debt-holder negotiations).
This is killing me man.
Methane is responsible for about 30% of the current global warming, so it clearly is a priority. That said:

Methane is transient, while CO2 accumulates. Methane decays quite quickly into CO2, which is why when accounted for over 20 years methane is considered 86x more potent than CO2, and over one century "only" 28x as potent. Any CO2 emitted today we will have to deal with for centuries to come. That's not the case for methane.

So while lowering methane will yield the most benefits in the short term, thinking longer term, it's really CO2 emissions that need to be lowered urgently.

Said differently, using a very crude reasoning with a hypothetical scenario: cutting methane emissions in 2025 rather than in 2050 would have little to no effect on the climate of 2100. In both cases the methane will have mostly decayed, and thus will stop capturing heat from the sun (maybe 2100 is a bit early, but you get the idea). But cutting CO2 emissions in 2025 rather than 2050 would have a dramatic effect on the climate of 2100, as these 25 years of CO2 emissions would mostly remain right there in the atmosphere.

It's obviously over-simplified, as global warming is having irreversible effects right now, and methane decaying will not revive species gone extinct in the meantime. So I'm certainly not arguing that we should not do anything against methane emissions. But that should not be done at the expense of fighting against CO2 emissions, rather on top of it...
They also have a few annoying bugs and missing features:

- Does not use the email notification sound on iOS

- Cannot open iCal attachments in the system Calendar on iOS - this is infuriating!

- Proton Calendar itself doesn't support shared calendars, despite being advertised as 'for business'. Almost every business needs a calendar that multiple people can modify.

Aside from that I've been generally satisfied, but the problems mean I can't recommend Proton for a business.

Cost estimates of attaining net zero are on the order of 100-200% of global GDP. To get this done by 2050 we would need to spend 3-6% of global GDP on the energy transition. This includes all these contingency costs.

Multi-threading gets you programs that are, at the very most, 8x faster. Is it really worth it? If this makes it even slightly more difficult to develop Python for normal people then it will get forked, and that sucks. If it can be done without any impact then great, but I'm still not sure it's worth it.

That sounds like a surprisingly fortunate mistake, because you would hope recommending others to go to a food bank will encourage (and actually make some of) them to give something to the needy there.

The suggestion the AI makes to consider going into it on an empty stomach could help the tourist to empathise with others who are less fortunate, because those are people who feel hungry every day. (Although the suggestion does sound unfortunate on first impression.)

Same thing with “try to sound friendly.” Please and thank you are essential. But there are few things I hate more than cloying emails that start with “Hi!” (the exclamation point is the problem) and emoji are definitely worse.

Being polite is professional and shows mutual respect; IMO it implies an intention to build trust.

Affecting the trappings of friendliness or even loose intimacy in a professional setting or any setting where the relationship is in a rough spot has a strong chance of coming off as disingenuous.

it isn't, i have codebase in golang that is much larger than typescript and it is pleasant to work with lsp and compiles smoothly. With typescript i have to turn off lsp and even after that it takes long time too compile. There is a reason why people are writing typescript compiler in rust.

Research: YouTube Advertisers Harvesting Data from Millions of Children
I got into a discussion at IETF with some people over email security a few years ago. The reality is, email was invented in the 70s. It’s missing all the modern messaging related crypto innovations (E2E security, signing, encryption, otr messaging, etc). And there’s very little interest amongst the big email providers in overhauling email to add these features. Even if some niche email providers have good security, if the person you’re communicating with uses gmail or something you’re still screwed.

If you want a communications system that’s safe from government snooping, don’t use email. Stick to signal or maybe WhatsApp. Or if you must, self host. At least then the court order to see your server will come to you.
>I can already use multiple cores by running multiple Python processes.

Because you have terribly simple processes that don't need to do synchronization. Even a simple parallel map would have Python scream and kick, because the GIL prevents it from having any kind of reasonable performance, and your multiprocess can't handle that unless they all write to files.

>it assumes that an equivalent of “reading” which it posits is permitted under copyright is somehow free.

Copyright doesn’t regulate consumption. It regulates distribution. This is why all the law tackles relate to whether or not a party is allowed to give, show, sell, or otherwise provide a material to another. It’s an easy mistake to make because there’s little reason to distribute other than to consume. It’s not a read-right or a look-at-right, it’s a copyright.

>If you want to consume copyright protected content you need - unless the copyright owner allows you

This has been the desperate dream of publishers forever, and thank-goodness copyright doesn’t work this way. Though with locking up of content though DRM and legal protection for breaking that, they get pretty close.
Yeah, talking more about algebra vs taxonomy in general, than about the data type algebraic facilities in various (functional or not) languages (which could be quite limited for non-algebraic reasons). I mean any transformations we do on the data still consistute an algebra, even if it's not encoded/enforced in the type system.
Honestly I'd call testing stable, and stable something like "rock solid" or whatnot. Testing is for sure plenty stable for day-to-day desktop use.
The basic problem that gives private Equity firms a bad reputation is that winding down an fading company that have fundamentally stopped growing over a 3-5 year lifespan, is a pretty good way of getting a good return on investments so it happens a lot to downward sloping companies with enough of an nostalgia inducing brand to be newsworthy.

It’s not the only ways PE companies make money sometimes they do actually allow companies to thrive on the long term by letting them escape the short term thinking that some stock traders demand but those tend to fly under the radar as well it’s not as newsworthy as some beloved brand turning to dust over a 5 year time span.

EQT the company in question here bought SuSE from Novell for a song listed it on the stock market in 2021 for a pretty decent profit and is now buying back stock at about half what they sold it for in 2021, so is itself kind of an counterexample to the narrative that PE firms always destroy what they buy.

And I genuinely appreciate that. Your care does shine through in those words. To me, you don’t need to say more… I don’t desire to be agreed with more than I desire peace for your life.

You’ve said you don’t seek “connection” at the office, and without knowing exactly what that means to you, I can’t assume that you’re seeking it here either. So, take this as you will:

You made me feel listened to. To me, that’s enough. Thank you.

(And yes, I’d probably put an emoji here if I could, chosen to emphasize gentleness and compassion. Likely a leaf, a sprig, or one of the non-romantic flowers. To me, this all feels so heavy without it, and lightening the words would undercut them.

Maybe a sparkle… idk. I wouldn’t normally think about it, but it seems important to say out loud, here.

When you read this, maybe you can picture a little flower, just meant to help you believe that I really do care how what I’ve said makes you feel.)
There would seem to be a gap in the market for a set of broad climate change economic indices, i.e. based on prices or productivity, not meteorological data.

Go through the article by category: wheat, rice, water, residential property... Then pair locations in different climate contexts. For example: US property might use SF and Miami v. Boise and Nashville; wheat might use Nebraska v. Alberta. Combine the pairs to remove overall trends and leave differential performance (long-short).

Use existing tradeable indices for those local markets to construct global climate change index, perhaps rolled up in two different ways, by category and by country (or larger region). For example, global property, and everything in N.America.
Agree 100%.

If you need concurrency at the moment, you have already switched to using multiprocessing, so having a no-GIL multithreading is useless.

The only issue with Python/multiprocessing, is that sometimes you don't want queues, but shared mutable state. And as you said, placing Python objects in shared memory at the moment is convoluted, restrictive, and suboptimal.

Fixing _that_ should be the objective. What Python need is better support for placing native instances in shared memory.
Fixing the consequences requires that they have to be repealed not now, not a few years ago, but rather 25 years ago.
It's a shame because it would seem to be easy to make protonmail but low hanging fruit fixed.

Mullvad and CounterMail allegedly do a good job of this (retaining no user data). However, USA authorities occasionally look into what it would take, in a legal sense, to force companies to write and distribute edited code to gain more access to customer data that the company immediately lacks[0]. For now it’s probably a bridge too far for law enforcement agencies, but one can never be sure about the future.

For me, the best reason would be: for the heck of it. But it's IBM's repo. Someone wanted this in some official IBM capacity.
He's talking about compilers for small languages. The Typescript LSP works fine on very big projects like VSCode so I think you'd need an enormous language like C++ or Rust before you'd run into those limits.

But still, I think I'd rather use Rust. I'm pretty sure the code would be nicer (e.g. no need for the explicit tag field or for the visitor hack).
Why? Of course, someone might just be toxic. But if someone is actively trying to repair a relationship, wouldn't it be better for everyone to see it as that and try and reciprocate?
There's all sorts. There's definitely proteins that do single steps like that, but also proteins that do more complex sequences of steps. Sometimes the more complex proteins are assisted by signaling proteins and whatnot.

I can't recommend getting "The machinery of life" enough. It's an incredible book with a lot of pictures explaining all this sort of thing. It gives you quite a good intuitive understanding of the chaotic environment inside cells.
If you hire someone to perform a service for you, and during the performance of the service they cause someone harm, you can definitely be sued civilly, or even be criminally liable (to take an exaggerated example, consider murder for hire).

No idea how that would apply specifically here though.

>There was a question from Shannon about "what people think is a acceptable slowdown for single-threaded code". To a large extent, that question went unanswered in the thread, but he had estimated an impact "in the 15-20% range, but it could be more, depending on the impact on PEP 659".

So, let me get this straight, some of those working in the project to "make CPython faster", think it's acceptable to overnight make most existing Python code 15-20% slower?

I'd say max 5% and that if the gil removal was a benefit to other optimizations going forward (they say the opposite: the change with complicate and stall their other optimizations).

Meanwhile, Shannon had a fundraising proposal for him personally "speeding up CPython" 5x back in 2020. Now it's a whole team working on speeding up CPython with much larger corporate support, and it seems their targets are quite smaller?
