Sequential consistency is always "correct" in that you can substitute it for the others and your program will be correct -- but it's generally not warranted in my experience, to the point that I find liberal use of it to be a code smell, indicative that someone may have just sprinkled them around and "hoped for the best" rather than analyzing ordering requirements of their algorithm.

Electrician should be your first option. Pay is often better than other trades and it is more intellectually demanding and less physically demanding at the same time. There’s a shortage now too.

Most electricians easily work into their 60s so age should not be a factor. You will need to start off as an apprentice but given your demonstrated technical ability, I would hope you’ll be able to identify niche jobs within the profession that you will give you leg up for more rapid advancement.
So many words about "success" - how about some goodies?!

However their opening paragraph to floating point numbers is offensive.

"programming languages support numbers with fractions, which are called reals in mathematics. Here are some examples of reals:

3.14159265... (pi)

2.71828... (e)"

>fractions are called reals in mathematics

>immediately gives pi and e as an example
End users often do want simplicity but face a choice between products all optimised to extract value, which is different from giving them what they want. Sometimes that optimised path is simplicity, especially if it’s a new class of product. The result is delightful but rarely lasts as the market matures.

I’ve yet to find a framework that I really like. Ironically, most Python frameworks feel like they force way more coupling on your code than necessary, which is awful considering they are a dynamically typed language. So it feels like the worst of all worlds: Python performance, high coupling to something you don’t control, and dynamic typing.

I understand why these are designed that way, but also don’t enjoy using them. Frameworks can feel very narcissistic in that sense, all the code is about them, despite their promise that you’ll focus on your domain more.

I need to play with some of the Kotlin web libraries more, such as ktor or Javalin. There has to be something better out there.
SIP is the default though. Turning it off is an option for some, for now. But Apple has clearly indicated they're moving towards a more restrictive ecosystem through there actions for a long time now.
This happens a lot to me in KSP, the lander tends to slide all the way to the bottom of the slope. Most of the time it's okay, just need to tweak the dampeners on the landing legs a bit ;)

EDIT: I went to re-watch the moment on youtube and it does seem like the lander moves slightly to the left!
I guess if you're using an event loop library you don't have to think about it. For people who make event loop libraries, I agree that they should probably support kqueue/kevent+epoll. I was talking about normal application code that's not using such an event loop library.
In the context of the grandparent, a "NAS" is a device, attached to the network, that provides storage. How the storage the NAS provides is connected is irrelevant.

On a related note, I can't think of any drive that has a network interface instead of something like USB, Firewire, Thunderbolt, SCSI, IDE, etc. so how exactly would you define a NAS device?
Also incredibly inefficient.

The limit was with Win32. It’s not a “legacy” API, but it is as old as NT. There are some applications which do not use the MAX_PATH constant, such as Office (probably one of the few rate examples; Office apps have some horrid hacks like this and how they paint their menu bar).

Case sensitivity will break certain applications.

Why? They always turn out to be badly conducted experiments.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clairvoyance#Scientific_recept...

The psychologists David Marks and Richard Kammann attempted to replicate Targ and Puthoff's remote viewing experiments that were carried out in the 1970s at the Stanford Research Institute. In a series of 35 studies, they were unable to replicate the results so investigated the procedure of the original experiments. Marks and Kammann discovered that the notes given to the judges in Targ and Puthoff's experiments contained clues as to which order they were carried out, such as referring to yesterday's two targets, or they had the date of the session written at the top of the page. They concluded that these clues were the reason for the experiment's high hit rates. Marks was able to achieve 100 per cent accuracy without visiting any of the sites himself but by using cues. James Randi has written controlled tests by several other researchers, eliminating several sources of cuing and extraneous evidence present in the original tests, produced negative results. Students were also able to solve Puthoff and Targ's locations from the clues that had inadvertently been included in the transcripts.

That disclaimer is shown for exactly 1.5 seconds, or 38 frames, mostly as white text against a white background. Yes, I downloaded and checked as I'm that sad type of person :-) No one can notice the text is there and read it that fast, so for all practical purposes it might as well not be there.

Highlights from the study linked in the article:

• Spent coffee grounds (SCG) leach organic compounds that hinder the hydration reaction and compressive strength of concrete.

• SCG pyrolysed at 350 and 500 °C show strong bond formation with the cement matrix.

• 15 vol% replacement of sand with pyrolysed SCG at 350 °C provides ∼30% improvement in concrete strength.

You aren’t being downvoted for telling people to have full control over the OS. You can do that with SIP enabled, or boot to recovery, disable, modify, enable, and have full control over your OS. How often are you needing to modify low level OS config that you’d rather make your entire machine vulnerable to root exploits than dance around SIP a couple times a year if that? That’s why you’re being downvoted, for advocating folks make their machine way less secure to save 3 minutes worth of reboot time a year, if that. Bump the hard limit once and you never need to touch it again.

To medicine, generally? Yes, because we could enroll patients in trials to look at prevention/delay of symptom onset. To patients right now? No, and probably a net negative, because the psychological harms from knowing what's coming would cause greater harm than the benefit of planning.

I'm not saying it is easy to handle. But this mode of failure could be expected and prepared for. It's not that uncommon that the spacecraft finds itself in a position which was not calculated.

Or, are you saying that it's expected that the mission did not count with this scenario, and that future missions don't need to account for that either?
They also had an issue with the thrust gradient it could only do it increments in 20% which was too much of a change this one was finer which allowed for better control authority.

Andrew Ng's deeplearning.ai just released a course on this yesterday https://www.deeplearning.ai/short-courses/finetuning-large-l... - at a high level it lets one put more data into the model than fits into the prompt.

Maybe that's not going to be popular here but my opinion is that the only reason MacOS is used at all for mobile development is because it's forced. Otherwise they would lose that as well.

This is exactly the sort of problem increased workplace diversity helps to solve, and it's a great argument for an expansive definition of diversity, which includes traditional measures such as race and gender, but also non-traditional measures, such as socioeconomic background, education, etc. (To wit: The best engineering team I've ever worked on was three computer science grads, two boot-camp grads with backgrounds in chemistry and sports medicine, respectively, and myself, with a degree in English lit but extensive industry experience.

Ketamine is an amazing drug but also must be taken with extreme care. I'm friends with a bunch of ex-military guys and they rave about how it helps with PTSD and depression symptoms. But on the flip side of that coin I also have several friends that are downright addicted to the substance.
Your durability calculations use made-up numbers and don't reflect a great understanding of lead acid and it's limitations. Assuming 12hrs of solar charge is ridiculous and a 12v 20ah lead acid will provide ~120wh (since you can only use 50%) which seems like about half the capacity you would need for your 72 hr "worst case".

While you can get 500 "deep" (50% usage) cycles out of a lead acid battery that is specifically designed for that, you'll have lost almost half your capacity by the end. You also ignore the extra wear from partial recharges which will be pretty common since the top 20% capacity charges so slowly

You have to buy 2x as much lead acid capacity, it lasts less than half as long and you get worse charging efficiency. The only time lead acid makes sense is when you need a lot of capacity but that capacity is only used infrequently and you have plenty of time to recharge between usage events. That is not the use case here.

> If you're hoping for 90% or 99% uptime, this solar application is going to look closer-and-closer like a UPS.

No, it is still a solar generator with a solar generator usage cycle. You still have the paired problems of reduced lead acid charging efficiency at the top 20% combined with extra battery wear for every day that you don't get the batteries topped up despite that efficiency. In order to reduce this, you have to have enough extra batteries that they can soak in your solar output even when in the slower charging of the top 20% while also having enough solar capability to get back up to 100% on partially sunny days. These issues significantly hamper the viability of lead acid for solar generators and are why LifePO4 has completely dominated Lead Acid in that market.

> Also, the SolarPi guy is looking into Grid-backup systems. So yes, we're back to UPS

The goal here is to switch to grid only when the battery runs out. That is the opposite of a UPS and is still a solar generator.

Operation was in-and-out of hospital in one day. Then had a big cellophane-like bandage on neck and shoulder area that had to be kept clean and air-tight for 2 weeks. It was a good bandage though, just had to patch it up occasionally with new layers of cellophane-stuff. Main possible complication would be infection (worse case is that device then has to be removed) or some people have side effect where it feels like their throat is ticked and they cough when device activates. We didn't have any problems.

Then once its all healed they turn the device using nfc wand thing and then slowly increase the power bit by bit over several months. There are various timing and frequency settings that can be experimented with.
I've not had breaking changes in Linux for a long, long time. I generally use either a completely unmodified, default config Gnome, or Sway with my own config.

I've used a couple of different desktop environments or window managers over the past few decades, but these days I either stick with the default (which is so often Gnome) or use Sway, where I can just copy in my config file and everything works exactly as I'm used to.
The thing is, they would need experience to tell which of the best practices apply best in what situations.

I'm fairly sure coffee grounds are the most valuable "waste" that we regularly throw out. Some time ago I found out how obscenely good it is for starting plant growth, and it's great for a million less obvious things too, now even making concrete!

Tell me about tmpfs: where do you use it?
Through virtualization (Termux + QEMU), it should be possible. However, unless you're running Windows for ARM (no need for x86-64 emulation), you may get the performance of a Pentium III. Natively, though, those OSes simply don't have drivers and bootloader for your tablet. If you were a systems programmer, you could write those yourself and, after months of work, you'd have something like https://www.worproject.com/

> Given the incalculable risks, one may wonder why nuclear arsenals still exist at all

Because everybody is thinking that "if we don't arm ourselves, our adversaries will, and therefore gain the upper hand". That there are risks involved doesn't count, as long as they don't prove to be real (i.e. actually happen). If they prove to be real then we'll have a moratorium of a few years until the default reasoning takes over again.

I'm sorry, but I don't think we are capable of breaking out of this "highway to hell".
The angle about "reducing waste" seems a bit moot. Sand is plenty and coffee is organic.

Chandrayaan-3 landing: India becomes the fourth country ever to land on the moon
Reading the post and OP's comment, I think he approaches it the wrong way and actually try to count when a quick glance would eliminate 4 out of 6 options. If you see 6+5+4 you just know it's too high or 1+2+2 is way to low. Not much serious counting needed.

However, that 6/9 really threw me off and came across as terrible design.

I had to take a few ubers in Orlando last week (a city I don't spend time in) and two out of my five uber drivers just had a tablet mounted playing movies and music videos that they'd watch while they drove. I was pretty shocked. The third of five was texting half the drive.

I feel like (at least in my circles) texting and driving/distracted driving in general was a big deal in the early 2010s, but now people seem to have accepted that they'll send a text on the highway. It's upsetting to say the least.
I read the article as promoting "let's use a simpler solution than that, and cut scope from the work to be done instead". If you are not willing to cut the scope of the problem to the absolute minimum, you are prioritizing something else over simplicity. That something else might be higher profits, ease of onboarding, keeping your boss(es) happy or even things like better error logging and observability. Most software projects, both for-profit and not, have a huge laundry list of things they have rightly prioritized over simplicity.

I don't even think the article tried to argue that it was wrong to want those other things over simplicity, just that most people out there only claim to want simplicity but then make another statement entirely with their actions.
