> physical general computing magazine of a similar quality today I'd subscribe in an instant

Same here. Of course, it's not the information itself, which is almost certainly available elsewhere.

The curation provided by a high quality magazine is all the value. I get hundreds of potentially interesting articles to read every day from countless email list subscriptions. I don't have time for that so I don't read any. If I could subscribe to something that curates the absolute best content into a monthly package.. where do I send money?
That’s old news (from 2021). There are no laws on banning them yet (though the RBI, which is the central bank, has been in favor of a complete ban).
Mobile didn't exist in 1990s. Most of these games have moved to mobile, which is much easier to monetize.
I don't think so. You could go anywhere in the world before the 80s and they had mostly more children. Even the west. Female choice is a trade off not a benefit.
It's plainly clear to me that "unique" in most casual contexts means "there are aspects of this thing that make it stand out", and "very unique" means "those aspects are strongly pronounced".

This person is ridiculous. He saw a factual error in a Wikipedia article - but why was his first and only action to complain about it on Twitter, instead of in the obvious and logical place (the Wikipedia article's talk page)? Is he a superstar celebrity who expects the world to follow his social media and jump at his call?

Don’t forget, that having kids is really hard. They cost time, money and require support from living environment. There must be kindergartens with sane opening times, not until 2 PM. There must be supportive employers allowing home office on 2-3 days. Especially when kids are sick. Spoiler alert: before school kids are sick at least once a month. Housing is a real problem, but one can have kids in cheaper area too. There is not need to live in super expensive big city center.

Having no kids is simple very easy life without any bigger problems.

In this comment you seem to be reading "punch up not down" as a very binary, fixed rule, as if it is a being used as a commandment. I don't think many people think of it that way. Of course you can make comedy about poor and disadvantaged people if you want to, the point of the phrase is that when you do so you you think carefully about it.
> push the boundaries of the technology in a meaningful way.

Which is why game mechanic and gameplay is where the boundaries are, not computational efficiency or photorealism (or even, artistic direction or production value).

I imagine that prior to Jonathan Blow's indie hit "Braid", people were also imagining that the technological ceiling has been hit and an individual (or small team) cannot compete with the AAA studios.

The notion that the US has a singular food culture is suspect, it is much too large and too regionally and ethnically diverse for that to be operative. I always find it odd when Americans think the US has shit food options. Sure, there are parts of the US that have poor options but that is true across Europe too. Europe is not the good parts of France.

I’ve spent a lot of time across Europe and am a food nerd. I’ve also lived across several different parts of the US with distinctive culinary cultures. There are a few things which I think don’t translate well in this conversation. The US is a very large place with diverse climates and local agriculture, with different regions settled by different ethnic groups that have very different food that reflects local agriculture. Several claims are region dependent, both in the US and Europe. The US also has diverse cultures in relation to food, the eating and food preparation rituals are quite different across the US in my experience.

As an easy example, there is no food culture in Europe that is materially superior to Mexican food culture, which is the major operative food culture in parts of the US. I loved living in those parts of the US for that alone.

There are a few recurring patterns in the cuisine though. Many parts of the US have much better and more diverse vegetables, it is one of the things most consistently commented on by USians that live in Europe (I agree FWIW). Seafood is better in many parts of Europe, outside of New England and the Pacific Northwest. Beef in the US is better. Cheese in Europe is better. Things like bread depend entirely on where you are on either continent. Beer is mostly (not always) better on average in the US these days, and was often recognized as such a century ago before Prohibition destroyed it.

USian food culture is really diverse. If you do a road trip across all 50 states and eat the truly local cuisine and experience the culture around that cuisine, it is astonishingly local and often surprising. Much of it was brought by immigrants from Europe, or Asia on the west coast, and adapted to the local ingredients and milieu.

I love European cuisine and many aspects of the culture around it. Some of it is qualitatively better than the US. But many parts of the US have strong iconic food cultures that have no European equivalent that are unjustifiably ignored, with BBQ, Southern, and Mexican probably being the most identifiable. I don’t even like some of it but I recognize the rich culinary and cultural history of this food and the amount of care that goes into preparing it.
>>For early adopters, however, owners can receive a “pro-rated credit of $100 to the purchase of a new board,” according to Mudd. The credit will only be issued after owners confirm that they have disposed of the old model.

Blacklisting specific warnings is a bad idea. Instead you should `-Werror` all warnings by default and then whitelist specific ones with `-Wno-foo` of `-Wno-error=foo` if you don't care about them.

To handle differences in GCC/Clang flags you just have to detect the compiler (trivial with CMake), or dictate the compiler.

But only do that for your developers and CI. Don't use `-Werror` for downstream users of your project.

Every time I see this excuse, I wonder. What the heck does it even mean? That they are incapable of saying anything but useless, super generic statements? But then how can they work on individual, specfic policies if they can't even talk about it to the public?
The 'peace and quiet' of suburbs is only assuming that you get lucky. Much like any place, if you have a horrible neighbor they can and will make your life hell, but in the suburbs you're stuck.

As someone that lived in the suburbs as a kid I hope to never go back. Being in the city proper and having easy access to everything and nature within a bus / bicycle ride away is far better than living in the burbs and everything is 5-10 miles away. It's even worse if you're a kid, because I frequently had to wake up at 6AM for school, take a bus at 6:45 and get to school by 8AM. That was partly why I did so horribly in highschool.
Absolutely not in that sense.

I can't remember what exactly was slow, but some characteristics of the workload:

Some of the tables were so big that neither the table itself nor the indexes fit into memory.

The important tables where rather narrow. Like 5 integer fields or so. But long (tens of millions of rows? hundreds of millions? Can't remember).

The queries were a continous mix of selects, updates and inserts.

Some of the selects were based on multiple criteria (SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE x=... AND y=...).

Some of the updates were too (UPDATE ... WHERE x=... AND y=... SET ...).

None of the queries took very long. The machine was doing hundreds of queries per second if I remember correctly.

The whole process took weeks (billions of queries, if I remember correctly).

No, they would not have asked that question, because literally 100% of their ancestors for millions of generations had children (or otherwise reproduced). That’s the default option.

No, MariaDB is a fork and has meaningful functionality differences from MySQL. They've been diverging for over a decade and aren't drop-in replacements for each other.

Meanwhile Percona Server is a drop-in replacement for MySQL, essentially it's a large patch-set on top of MySQL rather than a fork. Percona Server releases line up with MySQL releases and versioning. Whenever Percona Server features break binary compatibility, it's explicitly noted in their manual, and not enabled by default.
I agree. Most people I know who don‘t want to have kids it’s primarily because they don‘t want to give up their lifestyle. Having a child means less money, less free time and less individualism.

Our priorities have changed but some want to be able to have everything without compromise.
No one else but you can provide you with experience. Hardware has both bugs (defects) and it fails, sometimes in ways not gracefully. An experienced multidisciplinary developer is certain to encounter them at some point. Depending on the discipline this may be a very common occurrence or it may be rare. Devs working at either extremes of scale are more likely to encounter these problems. Defects may go unnoticed due to software workarounds of all things

Wikipedia is so funny. I like to read topics about contraversial stuff related to my region of Balkans, both hr. (Croatian) and sr. (Serbian) versions. For the same topic, one side says national heroes, the other war criminals. One side's terrorists are other side's freedom fighters. One side's nazi collaborators are other side's innocent communist victims. And so on.

So, what's the truth? I guess whatever one chooses to believe. I like to create my truths from many different, contraversial or sometimes completely opposing sources on same topic. Your links are all in english language, in en. section of Wikipedia.

That just sucks. And that is the average? I have really skewed view of average then! Because I think of myself as average and I don't do any of those stuffs. I am actively seeking solutions and methods. If I had to write from scratch, I would only do when there is hard requirement and a proper reference exists. Without proper reference it would be a nightmare!

> What is the "proper way" of learning to you? Do you want to be taught in a classroom?

I never believed in learning at the classroom. It never worked for me as I got bored and tired. Sometimes when I was stuck, classroom helped but most of the time I couldn't focus.

For me proper learning requires immersion and building intuition. There is factual learning where I just take facts for granted. Then there is building intuition and understanding why the facts are like so. If I can follow these patterns, I reach a state where I will have solid high level intuition of a topic and I call myself to be learned. Once I am at that stage, I can create and think of new ideas/triggers ultimately allowing me to see patterns of possibilities. When I don't reach there, I don't feel I have done my work on learning.

It takes a lot, and genuinely a lot of time to reach that state of mind. And even if you reach there, it is under constant threat of being overwritten by other memories. However, once you have a baseline, you can easily remember more facts and how to do things.

I hope it makes sense!

Why, then, are you propagating vicious lies to make China look good? Are you a paid shill?
Yeah, I don't really want my 50s, 60s, 70s to be all that different from now in my 30s.

For me that means being deeply immersed in my hobbies, and traveling the world and being active etc. All that I expect to change are toning down the active activities to things that an older body can still manage, like skiing, scuba diving, hiking etc.

I can't see ever wanting kids or even coming close to that as I haven't even ever had a desire for a partner yet.

There is some significant food culture
in the US:

(1) In grad school, the little town had
lots of pizza shops with booths good for
student couples! One of our profs was
from Italy, and we asked him which was
better, US pizza or Italian pizza?

His definite answer: US!

(2) I make pizza: Currently have a batch
of dough rising: 750 milligrams of water,
1 Tablespoon of active, dry yeast, 1
Tablespoon of salt, and 1000 grams of
bread and pizza flour.

Water, yeast, salt, and flour -- they may
be the standard ingredients for a lot of
breads, French baguettes, and Italian
pizza and are part of culture.

(3) Last week had a big dinner -- carryout
Chinese. We tried, but the Chinese food
is a lot better in NY!

(4) I was raised on picnic pork shoulder
BBQ, chopped. Now I'm where get the same
thing except "pulled".

I make picnic pork shoulder BBQ -- on a
rack in the bottom half of a granite
roasting pan in an oven at 200 F to an
internal temperature of 180 F (maybe 10+
hours) and then separate, chop, and sauce.
Maybe add coleslaw.

(5) At least in NYC, the pastrami and
corned beef can be terrific!

(6) US has strong traditions of turkey
and/or ham at Thanksgiving and/or
Christmas. The gravy and dressing can be
quite good. Typically there are deviled
eggs, various salads, vegetable dishes,
maybe some French cut green beans with
some beef consomme, etc., various desserts,
etc. There is a lot of associated
"culture".

(7) Backyard outdoor grilled food parties
are a big thing, a big "culture".

(8) The best in ice cream is really good,
and likely the US has the best in the
world.

(9) US pies, apple, cherry, pecan, etc.,
can be world class good desserts.

(10) US T-bone steaks are world class
food.

(11) A California style Caesar Salad,
borrowing a lot from France, can be
terrific: So, the dressing starts with
oil, vinegar, mustard, garlic, herbs, and
then anchovies and an egg as an
emulsifier. Then there are toasted bread
cubes with the dressing as "croutons".
The greens are Romaine lettuce. And can
have more, e.g., some meats. It can be
quite good and filling.

(12) The US does good things with lobster.

(13) The US was drinking enough fine wines
from Europe -- e.g., from Bordeaux,
Burgundy -- that wine growing got to be
serious in NY and now CA, apparently a
big, huge thing in CA.

(14) Can argue that in an important sense
the US is by a wide margin the best in
food in the world: So, look at the
research and books of

I used to commute through London by bike. Like the cliche I was I ended up riding a fixie (everything else either got stolen or broke).

I found through trial and error that riding aggressively was safest, not because it was inherently safer but because everyone would take note of the idiot hooning around too fast and take extra caution. Of course the failure mode here is when someone doesn’t notice you…

Years later I now commute by bike in Cornwall where the local population is ignorant of cyclists. I ride an electric cargo bike with my son on the back and I’m incredibly conservative.

There’s no real difference in incidence of accidents, but incidence of “near-miss” and severity of possible accident? Hands down riding conservatively with no hopping around is safer. Duh! ;)
