> interpret "a small electrical pulse" as a collision

They don't interpret as a collision. IIUC current models of instinctive behaviors and learning are built up from the assumptions that

* if a source of event is "beneficial" (from a chemical, physical perspective, eg "food" / energy packet is there) then those cells, neurons, microorganisms are naturally selected which tend to approach / follow / capture that source

* if a source of event is non beneficial (threat / chemical incompatibility etc) then those survive which avoid that source.

Here it doesn't matter that the negative event is a "collision", eventually the organism('s building blocks) learn to avoid it.
This post reads so funny, "cheating"? Just use the right tool for the job buddy.

I just recently built jq into a container image so I could parse json inside of it. Installing jq isn't a hassle if you do it once.

Stop focusing on culture, kool-aid, and cheating and just get the job done.
I do some maintenance for a pretty old LambdaMOO instance that runs enCore, which gives it a (very 90s) web UI, along with a browser-based telnet client. Of course, that telnet client was a Java applet, so I replaced it with a websocket console, and a websocket server that proxies telnet to LambdaMOO.

One of the bigger challenges with the web UI is that HTTPS isn't really optional anymore, and the enCore database has a ton of `http://` links. So it requires a reverse proxy in front that can rewrite those, luckily in Nginx it's possible to use a small Javascript program to do it.
Asio has strands which may be an alternative depending on the use case.

Ok, so then don't buy series <X> from Lenovo then. But you ought to already have known that when you bought it because it probably wasn't exactly high-end was it?

And when you get a bad batch "from Intel" you don't exactly ditch Intel do you? No. Ditch Lenovo if they can't make computers.

You are completely missing the point.

XACT: macOS GUI for Shorten, shntool, Monkey's Audio, flac, wavpack et al.
Why would one need vulnerability scanning on an immutable OS image? It can be done before deploying the image to the host machines.
http://xact.scottcbrown.org/release-notes.html

>xACT stands for X Audio Compression Toolkit, an application that encodes and decodes FLAC, SHN, Monkey’s Audio, TTA, Wavpack, and Apple Lossless files. It also can encode these formats to MP3, AAC, or Opus, and do various other utility functions, in addition to a full set of shntool functions. Under the hood, xACT is a GUI based front end for the unix applications Shorten (3.6.1), shntool (3.0.10), Monkey's Audio Compressor (3.99, 3.100), flac (1.4.0), wavpack (5.5.0), TTA (3.4.1), Opus (libopus 1.1), cdda2wav 3.0 (with paranoia support), LAME (3.100), and aacplusenc (0.17.5). It also uses SoX ( 14.3.2), AtomicParsley (0.9.6), TagLib (1.9.1), MP4v2 (2.0.0), and rsync (3.1.3_31). It executes the basic commands of these applications and adds other features to speed up productivity in creation/use of etree.org standard filesets.
Recently I was on a cruise ship, and out in the waters only my carriers “maritime” plan was available - for those that don’t know, the rates are eye watering. $4 pr MB - and the onboard Wi-Fi was either completely down, or down in the low tens Kbps speed.

The difference between having a bare-bones HTML page, versus a bloated one, could make a significant price difference.

With that said, I’m sure that’s just an extreme edge case - but still a legit one. If you’re stuck out in nowhere with low and/or prohibitively expensive internet, you want a fast and small alternative.
Attitudes like these is how we eventually end up with bloated messes like Electron. Performance matters, everywhere. Some of us increasingly also use monitors with more than 60 hertz.
> Code where the project manager didn't believe in encapsulation, or refactoring, or none of that "architectural nonsense"

If anything I find the largest proponents to have drunk too deep from that well and cause the rewrites to never be considered, as the time required to do it becomes far too long to be worth the pay-out.

This excludes the worst kind: the overarchitectured old mess in need of a rewrite as it was based on the wrong assumptions and is now boggled down by 10 layers of abstractions and indirection which don't do anything.
Yes as is a flying spagetti monster.

> Diets don’t fail, people fail to follow diets.

That's like saying, "Exhortations to developers not to write bugs don't fail, programmers fail to follow exhortations." Guess what? Even the most skilled and well-intentioned programmers will write bugs, despite their best efforts; and lots of programmers simply won't put out their best efforts. If your goal is simply to find someone to blame, then sure, blame the developers. But if your goal is better software, exhortations not to write bugs are simply an ineffective intervention. You need to introduce other measures, like type systems, linters, static checkers, code reviews, and testing.

Similarly, if people consistently fail to follow diets, then the current crop of diets are an ineffective intervention. If your goal is to assign blame, then sure, you can stop there and feel good that you've found someone to blame. But if your goal is to actually make the situation better, then you need to find something else.
Incorrect. It is injected into muscle (ie IM vs IV). Furthermore, we were told for safety’s sake it would be absorbed locally. Finding it in breast milk, heart, ovaries, etc is a big ducking deal. Long term effects? Unknown but a certain subset of population very quick to minimize it. Like feeding your baby pharmaceutically altered mRNA is just like feeding your baby a carrot. Uh huh, sure, Prove it. That’s the whole point, can’t prove anything because they destroyed the control group (officially at least, my opinion is that we are all in the same massive experiment so I guess that makes me control).

Nah, moving goal posts on “safe and effective.” One by one the claims are they made have been dropped from marketing materials. The posters around my hospital sure have changed in the strength of their claims over the last few years.
It's exactly what it says, it's a coroutine with its own stack.

A fiber isn't to some degree a stackful coroutine, it is a stackful coroutine.

A stackless coroutine does not have a its own stack, it uses the calling context's stack and therefore can only yield to the calling context from the top-level coroutine function. A stackful coroutine has its own stack, and so can yield to the calling context from anywhere.

As far as how to implement, I always liked Malte Skarupke's blog post on the subject: https://probablydance.com/2013/02/20/handmade-coroutines-for...
It's just one computer so not much of a data point, but I feel obliged to mention I've had a desktop AMD (Ryzen 9 5950X 16-Core) running databases and various other applications for a couple years and it's been superb. Not one single issue, never have to reboot it, last time it went off was about four months ago from a power failure.

My biggest complaint is that it's even harder (or possibly more confusing) to work out how to get an AMD running ECC RAM than it is for Intel, and that's saying something.

Few working people aren't jealous of your wife.
Most won't admit that. Most can't pull it off because they are not financially secure, probably not even close, even in the top 10 % ...

Wifeys ( <3 ) problem is a mind thing. She's taking the opinions of people at face value.

There's what people say and what they actually think and want to say.

I'm positive wifey can turn her new life into a science and see the interesting patterns she could talk about with all the people who love talking about work. There are billions of housewifes who can't do what wifey can do because kids.

Wifey needs to try to look at her new life at a different angle, quite literally tilt her head and expand her sensemaking of it all.

Also: your brain works in logic, right? How to find people with lives closer to wifey's that just can't be found the normal way?

PS: People looking down on someone or giving someone that feeling or just generally giving off that vibe is a survival/coping strategy. They are not thriving. It's a sign of despair building up.
>> Study after study after study says diet and lifestyle are major factors in every deadly disease. But it's not socially acceptable to suggest that as an approach.

This is too simple of an statement for such a complex disease, so is therefore, misleading.

If we want more substantial studies, we turn to the UK, because they have a unified health system and have a massive collection of data on the general population. Timothy Key, et. al., Oxford, wrote a great summary of attributable factors (albeit a secondary data analysis). Outside of obvious factors such as smoking, alcohol, and obesity, what you put into your body becomes less and less a probability of being a cancer factor compared to age and genetics.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7190379/

>> Early case-control studies indicated that higher intakes of fruit and vegetables were associated with a lower risk of several types of cancer. But subsequent prospective studies, which are not affected by recall or selection bias, produced much weaker findings. In the 2018 World Cancer Research Fund report neither fruits nor vegetables were considered to be convincingly or probably associated with the risk of any cancer. There was suggestive evidence for protection of some cancers, and risk might increase at very low intakes. Specific components of certain fruits and vegetables might have a protective action.

>> Vegetarians eat no meat or fish and usually eat more fruit and vegetables than comparable non-vegetarians. The risk of all cancer sites combined might be slightly lower in vegetarians and vegans than in non-vegetarians, but findings for individual cancers are inconclusive.
The ease of accommodating new features along the way is actually a fine opportunity for the design of the new system to prove its mettle. If new features turn out to be troublesome, the new design is probably flawed as well.
No. It just seems insane to step in on someone else being asked a question and try and predict their response for them.
I think that’s a pretty privileged way of framing it
The problem is that the instructions for actually running the WASM file are not that clear... the docs the author mentions shows how to compile to WASM, which is easy enough, but then here's the instructions to make that actually work in the browser:

https://github.com/libjxl/libjxl/blob/main/tools/wasm_demo/R...

Yeah, you need some mysterious Python script, a JS service worker at runtime, choose whether you want the WASM or WASM_SIMD target, use a browser that supports Threads and SIMD if you chose that, make sure to serve everything with the appropriate custom HTTP headers... just reading that, I can see that to get this stuff working on non-browser WASM targets would likely require expertise in WASM, which is the point of the OP. WASM's UX is just not there yet.
We can fix the linguistic ambiguity by either having the Earth orbiting at much larger radius or spinning much faster around its axis. This makes the length of day/night less relevant.

Ofcourse the strictly correct result is only obtained in the asymptotic limit of infinite orbital radius or infinite rotation speed.

The first option seems problematic. While the rotational period becomes infinitesimal vs orbital, in the limit there is no orbital motion at all, not to mention that cosmological considerations come into play.

But the second option brings other difficulties, like people being ejected into space from the infinite centripetal force.

Its a tough one.
I very much doubt the patents are the problem in this case. Especially since, if there hadn't been patents, they would have just had everything as trade secrets. It's not like patenting rounded corners, most of the stuff that gives Intel and AMD an edge is highly complex and innovative.
I seriously expected minis and mainframes to be "old computers," not PCs from the 90s!
I assume it's this:

In Python, coroutines cannot yield from within another function call: if coroutine A calls function B, B cannot yield. In Lua, it's possible to yield a coroutine at any function depth: B can yield.

To implement something like this in a compiled language, you just need multiple stacks instead of the usual 1. Most architectures, such as x86, have a stack pointer register; when yielding a coroutine, just change the sp register to point to some other stack -- when resuming, restore the sp.

This is not a new concept. Pokémon on the gameboy did this for its UI fiber, for example.
> Simple fix then, ban reselling.

In Norway they introduced a law[1] that forbids reselling for a higher price than that printed on the ticket.

I do recall there was a lot of talk about scalping in the years before this law, and I haven't heard much since. I also noticed a drastic decrease of scalpers trying to sell tickets outside the venue.

I don't know. Tests freeze design so if you make your tests too comprehensive you'll just rebuild the existing system. This might be the correct approach if you are changing platforms/languages but often what you want is a system that is actually fundamentally different from the one you started with.
> Did you assume that challenging an assumption meant opposing it?

I think the phrase 'challenging an assumption' leaves a bad taste in some people's mouth due to negative associations. I have definitely seen people use 'challenging assumptions' as a shield for their argument or actions when it was not justified. Or worse be upset when the phrase does not get people to back their idea or actions.

Questioning, reexamining, challenging what have you is important in scientific progress. 'challenging assumptions', 'challenging the establishment', and probably other similar phrases I am not familiar with have been used conspiracy theorists and pseudoscientists and the association has tainted the phrase leaving a bad taste in some people's month.

“I’m doing this for baby” ads turned out to be true. Or maybe it should have been “I’m doing this to baby.”

With the amount of backtracking any of this “we believe we totally did nothing wrong and you shouldn’t look too closely at us, ok?” Just really doesn’t sit well with me. What about the same “we believe” claims on transmission? Efficacy? Safety? Lots of modifying after the fact and “oops, sorry!”

On the combat side the top games are War Thunder (which I don't recommend due to it's microtransaction model), DCS World (flawed and expensive but still fun), IL-2 Battle of Stalingrad (good WW2 game) and Falcon BMS (excellent, but focused on the F-16 and has a small community)

I enjoyed this read. I do want to point out that the first example of a similar posts is a terrible one (willingness to look stupid by Dan Luu) and not in the spirit of the story being told. In that post, it's not actually any kind of willingness but more of a "you are all stupid and I cannot lower myself to explain so I will tolerate looking dumb", there's a pervasive arrogance being portrayed or justified as something else.
The Windows fiber library is just that, a library. It's not an OS component. It's provided because stack switching in Windows is a somewhat fraught [1] and not officially documented procedure which requires modifying the TIB [2].

Here in Norway we had a go at the problem by making it illegal to charge more for tickets to sports and cultural events, than what they cost new.

You can take the seller to small-claims court and sue the seller for the difference.
If it sells out either way, then you will want to buy it before it sells out in both scenarios. It's just in the action scenario you can be sure you will get a ticket.

the idea that a disabled Person has to justify accessing games to insurance companies or charities is incredibly dehumanising not to mention the additional mental load of finding, understanding, learning, updating and affording the devices!

Your average tech disinterested person with no specific requirements might pick up a switch lite to play a more casual game, or download a non resource intensive PC game or maybe a game on their phone 'words with friends' or 'farm ville' type games. They'll play a while then carry on until another game pops up.

If that same situation occurs as a disabled person by the time your funded, trained and setup to go (and found out if you even can play the game this way!) the fad is over or your disinterested.

If drinking mRNA did anything, we wouldn't need needles for the vaccine, and we also wouldn't be able to eat meat.

> Lots of modifying after the fact and “oops, sorry!”

Nah, none of that happened and when it did it was natural and didn't imply any mistakes. If you're going to misunderstand research, it's better not to think about it in the first place.

(Example: efficacy of a vaccine always appears highest when noone's gotten the vaccine yet. This is a base rate effect.)

Of course, there were some other less effective vaccines in poor deprived countries like China and England, but we can't do much about that.
It's become pretty clear that a lot of developers never test their websites or apps in low bandwidth environments.

Testing over a heavily throttled connection that drops packets should be a mandatory part of usability testing for anything intended to be used over the Internet.
One HTTP connection per message (if this is what the original poster meant) is probably a bad idea whether you implement it yourself or not.

Also, let's be honest: The phalanx of developers that violently argue for importing everything and never implementing anything yourselves is way bigger than people who argue for the opposite; I don't think we need to worry about the latter making things worse as much as the former.

We've seen what the world turns into in both scenarios, I would argue, and at least with the first one we got software that ran decently and developers who knew how to actually do things. We have overall much safer languages now so their home grown solutions won't have the same safety issues that they've historically had.

With the importer crowd we've gotten software that feels like molasses and an industry full of people who know only the surface of everything and more importantly become tied to frameworks and specific APIs because they never actually go beyond any surface APIs.

As with most tradeoffs in software there is a good middle-ground, but we won't ever get there if we don't have people who argue for making things yourselves.
