Luxembourg, Norway and Switzerland have substantially higher GDP/capita than the US.

As for median income, I think you're looking at income net of taxes, because I'm fairly certain that median gross income is higher in Luxembourg and Norway (and in Switzerland) than in the US. If you're looking at net income, you also have to factor in what those taxes do to improve quality of life (a huge amount, if we're talking about the three countries I mention above).
Seeking high social status in a male partner is a good reproductive strategy for human females. That’s why so many women like Veblen goods and why ugly billionaires have gorgeous wives.

Pretending that normal human behaviour is a “red flag” is a path towards conflict and unhappiness.

Sure, you can find outliers that don’t care about such things, but not everyone can marry only a minority of women.
> You have to pulverize the macro into syntax atoms and then reassemble it piece by piece into an AST that the compiler needs. All the processing to do all of that should be a part of the compiler--not a smattering of 50 crates (syn being the most oppressive one) and a weak compiler API.

First of all it's not 50 crates, it's 3 main crates syn, quote and proc-macro2 and a few smaller helper crates which are used less often.

And the reason to not include them in the compiler is exactly the same reason why "crate X" is not included in std. Stuff in std must be maintained forever without breaking changes.
Just recently syn was bumped to version 2 with breaking changes which would have not been possible if it was part of the compiler.

In any case, shipping precompiled proc macros WASM binaries will solve this problem.

> Serde has to enumerate the universe even for types that wind up not used. Those types then need to be discarded--which is problematic if it takes a non-trivial amount of time to enumerate or construct them (say: by using proc macros). Part of this is the specification that must be done because Rust can't do compile-time reflection/introspection...

Yes, it's a design tradeoff, in return Rust has no post-monomorphization errors outside of compile time function evaluation. I think it's worth it.

> I'm beginning to think that the folks who claimed that compiler speed is the single most important design criterion were right.

I don't agree. As long as the compile times are reasonable (and I consider Rust compile times to be more than reasonable) other aspects of the language are more important.
Compile time is a tradeoff and should be balanced against other features carefully, it's not the end goal of a language.
I’m gonna go to bat for Slack on this one and say the “Later” feature they added recently has completely changed my workflow for the better.

Now I just throw the message in Later and get back to it when I’m free.

The podcast Song of Urania does a super deep dive into the history of astronomy, including this specific measurement. One of the insights the podcast brings to light is that there were many such estimates; relative size of the Earth, Moon and Sun - distance to the Moon, etc. By reviewing the distribution of these estimates, and the methods applied, the host of the podcast suggest that Eratosthenes was lucky to get quite so close.

> Rust has fundamental problems to solve

The orphan rule isn't a problem that needs solving, it is itself a solution to a problem. There's nothing stopping Rust from removing the orphan rule right this minute and introducing bold new problems regarding trait implementation coherence.
I feel the exact same also homeschooled. It’s also interesting being in this thread with homeschooling parents - I remember hearing about how “homeschool groups provide the same level of socialization” back then, and it wasn’t any more true then than it is today. Schooled kids get 8 hours a day with peers and you get 1 if you’re lucky. Not the same.
It's also a ploy to avoid integrated schools, but I think we gave up on the Brown v. Board world a few decades ago.

e: Not saying this is the reason but it is certainly the subtextual reason in the southern urban school district I lived in that a lot of kids were homeschooled.
I have a weakness in that I always give people the benefit of the doubt. So I suspect that people are shooting these birds “for sport,” not realizing they are protected birds. I wonder if posting more signage to educate shooters that there are bald/golden eagles or whatever in the area, if that would help mitigate this at all.
Maybe I’m too optimistic.
What’s your point though? You’re picking an arbitrary cutoff time based on what? The intention is still disruption.

Thirty minutes is nothing. We don’t classify severity of crimes based on how long they take to accomplish. A murder is a murder whether you shot a person once or spent hours carving them up.

I have used an angle grinder and it takes me about 10 seconds to cut through rebar. I would assume a rail is like 25 pieces of rebar put together so my naive assumption would be under five minutes.
Lol, yeah.

That was my first "crack." I happened to run the game on an Atari computer, which makes sounds during disk I/O. I could hear the sectors, hear the fail, retry, then remaining sectors load.

So, count em up, open the door, listen for fail, close, go!

Didn't even need a single hex value to accomplish.

After that, I got into it on an Apple. Reading this brings back memories. That particular machine is a lot of fun, and it is fun because almost everything is software. Totally open.

Author proposes software architecture speaks to its use cases.

> Architectures are not (or should not) be about frameworks. Architectures should not be supplied by frameworks.

We could still aim for a web app (client-server) or desktop app without mentioning Java Spring, Next.js, or Qt (yet).

> ... as a console app, or a web app, or a thick client app, or even a web service app, without undue complication or change to the fundamental architecture.

That speaks to Domain-Driven Design (DDD).

> A good software architecture allows [implementation] decisions... to be deferred and delayed

Somehow, we should be able to create an app in an absolute vacuum, with only standard libs and domain experts. Persistence, performance, and framework decisons can be maximally deferred.

The good thing is describing state machines up front. The bad thing is how to "split data structures," because it's hard to argue not to store everything in a database.

That also means test cases written without UI, with only business acceptance criteria allowed. Additional test cases would conform to the framework, end-to-end testing, and so on.

Well I mean no one wants to see people being homeless, but if you migrate to a city with no available housing doesn't that suggest you should try moving somewhere else?

I mean it's hard even getting a hotel room in some places. You make sure you have a reservation before you go.

I can see a point complaining about how we don't have the right kind of assistance programs for refugees. But complaining that it's the city's fault or the market's fault there's no room for people who come with no plan doesn't seem fair.

I mean there's a lot of land in this country. Plenty of room for everyone. Just not in one place.

Suggesting we force people to use their land to build more housing seems pretty dystopian to me. Force me to build upwards on my land? Seems like a great scifi story premise, so many people you're forced to house and feed strangers that never stop showing up.

Anyhow like I said, America is a big country. Plenty of places to live. Not exaggerating.
Electrons never reallocate themselves to a single spot. There's no evidence that collapse actually happens, that's just one weird interpretation (Copenhagen).

The entire electron cloud produces an electro-repulsive force that is very real. That is what you feel, there's no small probability about it. This idea that there's some small probability that you hand will go straight through the table is ridiculous.

When you touch a peach, some of your electrons/atoms actually do become part of the peach and vice-versa. If we somehow turned up the tunneling probability, your hand would not go through things, it would simply dissolve into things more readily.

Upon reflection, you are right about the cause/effect wrt sanctions. While I don't see how sanctions can be part of a solution, I do now understand that they aren't the cause of instability either, as corrupt actors, or even completely legitimate governments can cause violent conflict over these sanctioned commodities.

But, the part about narco states still stands...I don't see a way to fix the rule of law problem by just "having strong rule of law". Those countries already have laws e.g. against corruption. Especially in South and Central America, narco-organizations and drug related violence predominates the causes of instability.

When that changes, we will see progress.

Because that's how we got the shit we have today. Look at our healthcare system. The wealthier you are, the more you can go "fuck it, I'll buy a wing in a hospital and never have to worry" meanwhile middle america has giant chunks of population who suffer with chronic pain for decades.

The “I don’t want the government perspective imposed on my children” is so funny to me as a homeschooling argument.

Go to schoolboard meetings. Talk to your kids and their teachers. Understand what your kids are learning. If you feel a perspective is missing, fill in the gaps. Your kids will be better off for seeing different perspectives, understanding basic argumentation, and coming to their own conclusions.

Oh this sounds like a lot of work? Well, the alternative, pulling them out of school and designing their entire education sounds like way more work than just being reasonably engaged?
