For starters expect to see updated classics—Bogart and Bergman et al in a wide-screen color version of Casablanca. After movies anything will be fair game.

Seems to me we're powerless to stop it. Those who want laws to stop impersonations of others, especially the famous, may get those laws but enforcing them will be another matter altogether, it'll likely be a nightmare.

I'm not much of a film fan so I'd doubt that I'd deliberately seek out a revamped Casablanca but if an easy opportunity arose to watch it then I'd do so. No doubt, those with much greater passion for movies will be driven with a similar passion to seek them out.

Past updated and cloned movies, the scenarios seem almost endless, even with little imagination one can see some of which are horrific.
SymPy will numerically approximate the value of the equation inside "N" to the number of specified decimal digits, so the first 50 non-zero digits will be completely correct[1] when you pass "50" as the second argument to N.

1: I'm not sure how SymPy handles rounding, but it is typical to round the last digit so e.g. printing just 5 digits of 0.123456 would correctly be 0.12346

It looks as though this isn't entirely the onset of an anomalous situation, but also the correction of a birth boom [1]. Maybe cultural mindset will again change and prevent over-correction.

Hello! We're not an email service provider ourselves (where one would normally configure email domain/ip settings), but we allow users integrate their own ESP accounts. We currently support sendgrid, and in the near term future we plan to support AWS SES.

Not at the mall, but at the park in a low-crime American suburb.

Perhaps it's more that when the search page primarily has non-error events (as in your demo), it's entirely a sea of white characters that all look the same, and trying to scan it for patterns with one's eyes can be fatiguing. Being able to color columns and values in different ways might help a lot - say, by the intensity of a numeric value like duration, or assigning distinct pastel colors to different services or prefixes like GET/POST.

You all are doing really cool things to discover patterns, link traces, etc. - I'd hate someone's takeaway from the demo page to be that the skill level required to make use of HyperDX is akin to needing to spot hair colors from looking at the same-colored code of the Matrix!
This is clearly not true; Wikipedia isn't ad supported and is incredibly successful and prolific. You can use educational tools like WolframAlpha freely and pay (using a normal subscription model) for its more advanced features, no advertising required. KhanAcademy is completely free (yes I know they host many of their videos on YouTube; that's a minority of the content on KA these days and I suspect would be a relatively minor hosting cost at this point based on how tiny and easy to compress their video presentation style is).

The internet would be different, yes. We'd probably see much less of a gold-rush than we've historically seen. I think it would still be just as much of a treasure in learning and communication as it is today though.
I think certain sounds are hard for Western speakers to pronounce, while others are easy. Specifically, Hindi (and many other Sanskrit-derived languages) distinguish between some sounds (which have correspondingly different characters in the written script) that are often indistinguishable to Western ears. And if you can't hear the difference, you are unlikely to be able to say it right.

These sounds typically come in groups of four. For example, there are 4 "T" sounds in Hindi: त थ ट ठ. If you pronounce each of these correctly, Indian ears will hear 4 distinct sounds. Western ears will typically hear the same sound 4 times. If they are listening attentively the second time around, they may be able to distinguish at most 2 different sounds, but not 4. Given this, Western speakers are unlikely to correctly pronounce a word containing one of these sounds. The good news is that even if a Western speaker has incorrect pronunciation, in the vast majority of cases native Hindi speakers would be able to understand what was meant.. so the communication still happens effectively. Furthermore, regardless of language, I like to believe that most native speakers will very much appreciate efforts to speak the language, no matter how mangled the pronunciation is.

There is cognitive overhead in even having to consider how Oracle could be licensing anything you download from them. Their licensing has a long history of being complex, expensive, and enforced. Choosing to get software from a less complicated (licensing wise) provider is a valid choice.

The licensing risk of using open source software, that is mostly being written by Oracle, from Amazon is less.

Amazon's open source reputation is that they'll screw over maintainers with their rebranded forks, but not go after users of open source.
I'm more than willing to admit this being true on like... 98% of grinders out there; would be a little surprised to see that in a insanely expensive and _very_ overbuilt grinder like EG-1.
Few in US pronounce my name as it was originally, and I was born there. The final joke is when I moved to a country where it is pronounced right, people get confused because I don't have a matronym (slightly shameful not to) and my patronym (Bueno) sounds outright fake.

I've learned to roll with it using a joke that my cousin has it worse because her last name is "Excuseme".
Is the presentation of this work available online? Would love to watch or read through!
I would be surprised if Apple does what you suggested, but I do think it's an excellent suggestion, thank you. It just won't be a priority unless some sort of legislation forces their hand.
The whole situation is really confusing.

Some people already ``adjust'' their names for a Western audience, and others don't. So, given the <name 1> <name 2> of a Japanese person, I don't know if <name 1> is the family name or given name. Some people already make the adjustment so that Westerners get it right, some don't.

I don't care either way -- I'd just prefer things be consistent so that when I recognize a Japanese name I can call them by the proper name faster :).

Same situation in Greece. Formal documents like identity cards, university diplomas, and even mailboxes, generally put the surname first, while in running text, like a news article, the given name is first. Some formal documents also list the patronymic, in the order: Surname Given Patronymic.

In some situations it is less clear which convention applies. For example most of my older relatives use surname-first for their Facebook account name, which is less common with younger people. I have also seen both orders on business cards. I think most Greeks would not expect foreigners to be familiar with or follow these conventions though.

> singles Brand out and allows other celebrity accused rapists to continue posting? He’s not the first.

Accusing is something, guilty is another. And even if found guilty, how’s that a violation? Do you kick out an ex-convict from the grocery store? As long as no promotion for violence, you don’t get to deny them the service.

> No one has a right to use a private service like YouTube. They could close down tomorrow and block all of us and we’d have no case that they had violated our rights.

No, everyone has the right, just like you have the right to go to walmart. If they close, fair, it’s like bankruptcy for a company and no longer required to pay debt, your company legal entity doesn’t exist anymore, but as long as you are operating, whatever applies to grocery stores applies to big tech, I don’t know why some people think big tech are above the law, in fact, given how influential they are, a special restrictions should be applied to them, this is not some random IRC chat with nicknames back in the 90s and if you gat banned, you go to another room, social media is now people digital identities, imagine LinkedIn suddenly started banning people, and people are no longer able to look for jobs and the likes? Or a dating site mogul that owns most dating apps suddenly decided to ban your account and they use AI to recognize your face, you are basically out of the dating pool! Yeah, laws should be adjusted per how dependent we are on the digital world, this is not the 90s anymore.
> functions that are not async are fast and unlikely to fail, while functions that are async are potentially slow and likely to throw exceptions.

That would seem like using the wrong tool for the job. If you want to colour functions according to reliability and speed you should use a different mechanism to colour them than a mechanism designed to colour functions based on how they behave if IO blocks.

What are the possible solutions besides immigration? I'm not really well-versed in this topic, so I'm not aware of other solutions and am asking earnestly

I remember I was reading a subreddit for actually rich people (/r/fatFIRE) and there was a thread about concierge doctors; everything about the service sounded worse than FAANG health benefits I've used. (Which does include an onsite doctor's office.)
TBH, by some measures Japan also applies here. They do better on a lot of measures, but their parenting story is one of pushing all responsibilities onto the woman and keeping men at the office late forever. That's a different type of servitude and denial of care to families with young children than America, but it matches the OP's comment.
While their work culture could be partially to blame, the main culprit for this is Japan’s xenophobic attitude towards immigration. They don’t mind tourists, but anything that would change the “purity” of their homogeneous population is still a big no. Japan also has arguably the best and most effective immigration controls in the developed world, which they are now a victim from.

This attitude towards immigration is slowly changing now though due to desperation and political policies that still dole out entitlement after entitlement to elderly who no longer work and contribute to tax revenue and the economic growth at large
> Idk though, is this a real concern with traditional finance? Zimbabwe had their huge bills, but I assume the small ones were unused. Just like you round US cents, you could probably round their currency at some cutoff. If you were processing Ether outside the blockchain, you'd probably round somewhere too.

Yeah... I started reading this article and was waiting for the crypto angle, because in normal finance I don't see how it could plausibly matter (disclaimer: not my domain).

The only reason I could imagine needing to track this level of precision on fractional units of currency was the sort of financial trickery that is enabled by cryptocurrencies.
Kotlin is not really a good example because it offers the worst of both worlds in this area: You must account for both preemptive and cooperative scheduling because both occur at the same time (they had no choice because they don't control the platform, only the frontend compiler). But let's look at a language like JS, that offers "clean" cooperative scheduling, and compare that to Java.

An async JS function can contain code like this:

x = 3;
foo();
print(x);

Now suppose that you want to perform some I/O operation in foo, which would require changing the function to:

x = 3;
await foo();
print(x);

But is that allowed or does our function depend on x (which is shared among tasks in some way) not being changed between the first and third lines? Does the original function rely on the implicit mutual exclusion for its correct operation or not?

In Java, on the other hand, if x is shared among some tasks then, regardless of what foo does, if the method depends on x not changing then the code must be written as:

try (xGuard.lock()) {
x = 3;
foo();
print(x);
} finally {
xGuard.unlock();
}

So adding a scheduling point to foo doesn't matter because if our method has any mutual exclusion assumptions it must express them explicitly (in practice, if x is guarded, then the guarding will often be encapsulated somehow, but the point remains). In JS that's not the case, so the addition of a scheduling point requires a careful analysis of all callers.

If your civilization, geopolitics, and macro economics all depend on pyramid scheme population growth you're doing it wrong.
You're missing the main point of Georgism. The main thing is that community-derived wealth (i.e. the value of land, not the value of the property on that land) should be redistributed to the community, as the community was the one that caused that increase in wealth.

Someone can maintain a piece of land unproductively if they want to. They just have to pay for that right, same as anyone else that would want to own that piece of land.

There is a broad range of situations here. No one should want a blighted property just sitting there in places like NYC or LA where homelessness is rampant. However, no one is arguing to just teardown places like Central Park to put in more housing.

Can't upvote this response enough! Thank you Ron. You corrected my understanding on this a few years ago in a Reddit thread on /r/java. I've tried to convey this response ever since. You are NOT getting an LTS release from anyone outside of Oracle. Others will provide backports and that might be "good enough". If you're not paying for an LTS, you may as well update to each new release (as long as nothing else breaks).
I do not accept this as a reasonable answer. I've lived in not even very good areas, with very lax physical security (often not locking my car) and have never had this issue, ever. Nobody has ever stolen my phone. Not in downtown Detroit, not in not-downtown-Detroit, not in SF, not in Chicago. If crime really is this bad, it's not an Apple or Samsung problem. It's a societal problem that extremely badly needs to be addressed seriously and not just worked around with convenient anti-consumer garbage.

Sell me the phone that can be stolen please.

Because they're not inherently lying. Brand has already admitted to banging one claimant who was 16 at the time. He's gross, but this extralegal retconning of all past sexual encounters needs to stop. It's pig-butchering by another name.

The excuses for not filing a police report of rape at the time rarely withstand scrutiny. The aggrieved have no problems broadcasting their story on social media, but have every excuse prepared for why they can't formally document it within the statute of limitations in a venue that imposes consequences for lying. Go figure.

I did them in Spain. Honestly German taxes were a bit more intimidating (so many fields, tk is different) but in the end you only need a few. As a salaried employee you can use taxfix and get it done in 20 min.

In Spain they were easier, but also I could not expense many things as a contractor. In Spain they would send you a draft, and you can request a meeting to help you do them (few people do this). This was smooth. You show at your timeslot and a friendly person is there for any questions. Before you leave, the definitive version is done.

Houses are already dirt-cheap in US small towns. Move to a 3rd or 4th tier college town or dying farm town in Kansas, say, far from any metros, and you can score big-ass brick houses that’re nice & updated for like $100,000 or less, still.

You’ll have bad public schools, local median wages will be shockingly far under what you’re used to, it’ll be far from major cities and notable natural attractions, and medical care will probably be mediocre at best. But there are tons of cheap houses in this country today.

[edit] my point is there are tons of cheap houses now, but you (the general “you”) don’t want to live in them. In the future there may be more, but they will also be places people don’t want to live (economic decline and bad schools & medical care go hand-in-hand)
You can also implement BumpUp() with only two conditionals and no overflow like this (in C, because I don't know Rust, but the logic is identical):

size_t alignment_needed = align - (ptr & (align - 1));
if (alignment_needed > SIZE_MAX - size) return nullptr;
size_t space_needed = size + alignment_needed;
size_t space_remaining = end - ptr;
if (space_needed > space_remaining) return nullptr;
char *result = ptr + alignment_needed;
ptr += space_needed;
return result;

Every OS that has to use VESA in a VM is slow. It doesn't mean they're "unsupported". Unsupported would imply that the OS doesn't boot/function properly or that you have to do abnormal things to get it to work.

A paywall is around an entire site. You have to pay for the whole thing or not at all, and you have you do it separately for every site. Subscriptions to the NYT, WSJ, Economist and the FT would cost a fortune, and I would read a minute fraction of the content. As a result I don't have subscriptions for any of them, and none of them get a penny from me. With a common system, paid with a single click per article, I and many others would happily rack up significant tallies reading individual articles across all these publications. It's a win/win.

I don't buy the argument that people wouldn't be bothered. A popup with a balance, cost for the article and yes/no button would be far less mental effort than I already spend finding how to refuse consent on tracking popups, and about the same effort as required for those that simply click the button to grant consent. If that were too much to expect people to do nobody would be reading any articles in the EU at present.
