Chatgpt was able to figure this out with a simple "what does the following do". But it could also be a case of chatgpt being trained on your article.

Yes, we prefer to share the good stuff and not let a few hoard it. It actually makes everyone better off. There is no coincidence that the Nordic countries have a better life quality in essentially every way measured.
> So static type system are conservative. If variable v is supposed to have type T and the compiler cannot deduce that it for sure is then a type error is generated. Hence you need option types because static type systems are not powerful enough to deduce whether a given nullable variable actually can be null or not.

Option types serve other purposes, like composability; tracing program flow can determine the points where a nullable type either (a) will always be null, or (b) will never be null, and many type checkers for type systems with nullable types (or, more generally, non-discriminated unions, nullable types are just one example.)

This looks cool but also not useful for ornithological purposes, right?
Did you read your [1] link? Their answer was "yes, in fact" and aside from taking the perspective that this may be surprising to many folks, the article doesn't really argue against it.
This is where the oversimplified argument gets in trouble: if it’s already opaque, adding more won’t make a difference, right?

The science is something like: CO2 is so opaque to IR that the determining factor for warming is the part of the spectrum where it isn’t so opaque. However the thermal transport still goes through several bounces as it goes up through the layers of the atmosphere. At the higher layers the frequencies shift down and the absorption spectrum changes in complicated ways. This all interacts nonlinearly with water at the lower layers and ionised gases in the higher layers.

Actually simulating something that won’t just give you gibberish answers is decidedly nontrivial. It’s not a question of precision — I’m not talking about +2C instead of +1.5C! An overly simplistic model will predict -50C or +100C!

> This is why threads aren't nearly as important as many programmers seem to think. Chances are, whatever application you're building can be done in a cleaner way using pipes + processes or green/user-space threads depending on the workload in question.

I think you're making wild claims based on putting up your overgeneralized strawman (i.e., "threads aren't nearly as important as many programmers seem to think") that afterwards you try to water down with weasel words ("depending on the workload in question").

Threads are widely used because they bring most of the benefits of processes (concurrent control flow, and in multicore processors also performance) without the constraints and limitations they bring (exclusive memory space, slow creation, performance penalty caused by serialization in IPC, awkward API, etc).

In multithreaded apps, to get threads to communicate between each other all you need to do to is point to the memory address of the object you instantiated. No serialization needed, no nothing. You simply cannot beat this in terms of "clean way" of doing things.

> It can be less convenient, but (...)

That's quite the euphemism, and overlooks why threads are largely preferred.

>There’s no reason schools or parents can’t hand kids unmanaged/unrestricted Chromebooks

Holy cow. Are you serious? Kids break stuff for fun.

This is basically a “You’re holding it wrong” argument. Schools are gonna have heavily managed chromebooks, because it’s the reality on the ground that they can hardly afford anything, much less insane IT support for every student. Like, kids are going to actively sabotage the software on their school equipment if they can as a way to avoid doing schoolwork. This was common when I was in high school over a decade ago, they solved it with Deep Freeze software and extremely restrictive Microsoft policies.

Google is the one with a wealth of IT and developer talent, not school systems. They are making the product, not the schools. Devs have to come from somewhere, and going out a limb here, I don’t think smartphones (the other computer that [low income] students are likely to have access to) provide an on ramp for developers, so it would be good if these chromebooks did.

If I may nitpick, it shouldn't ever output "undecidable" but rather something like "undecided" or "I give up". A program that can be trivially seen to halt if we let it run for a quadrillion years is only "undecidable" in the sense that we might get impatient and die.
For me booking.com has always been cheaper than booking directly with hotels.

I do a lot of motorcycle travelling without a plan. I often do not know where I’ll be at the end of the day, just a general direction.

Late afternoon when I have a better idea where I’ll end up before it goes dark I’ll look at booking.com, find some hotels/motels that match my criteria and head to them without booking.

Countless times I’ve turned up and said “I found you on booking.com and it says you have vacancies, I want a room” only to be given a price higher than booking.com. Some reluctantly negotiate down to match it, some look confused how booking com can offer the price they are while I book through booking.com at the hotel desk as the hotel won’t match the price booking.com are charging.
Wow. I have no idea how I confused that.

Yeah, the WiFi is improved. The Bluetooth is the same as it ever was.

The conceit of Ender's Game was that thoughtful discourse would be influential online.

Reality has largely demonstrated that far more thoughtless propaganda of the Big Lie, Firehose of Bullshit (or Falsehood), associated with Russia, floods of irrelevance which tend to bury more significant stories, favoured by China, and outrage / hot-button topics, which are common in US-centric media, though a timeless technique.

Memes and simple messages attract attention and spread. Complex narratives and analyses ... not so much.

But yes, voices that deserve no attention whatsover have dominated the media landscape of the past decade or so. Not that this is entirely novel.
Much of the cost in the NHS is due to creeping privatisation and a mountain of PFI debt that could have been funded for a fraction fo the cost of what it bought.

NHS consultants working at their hospital privately. Hiring their own companies.

You're an NHS nurse, your pay has declined drastically in real terms and the job is increasingly stressful due to a staffing shortage. You spend part of each shift teaching a clueless agency nurse, who's costing the NHS 2-4x more than you, how things work.

The government has over the last two decades, gradually shifting more work to private services, despite paying more for less each time they do so.

The people responsible should be in jail.

I think real problem with the Dark Forest hypothesis is that it assumes alien civilizations at a very high level of technical development would somehow have not also made any sort of moral or ethical progress. Even humans, in a few thousand years have gone from winner-take-all, kill 'em all, to universal human rights, rules of war, etc. (sure, we aren't doing a perfect job, but we clearly have made some progress - by the time we're sending ships to other stars, I'd like to think we'll be farther along yet).

"It's alarming that, in the Kia and Honda, if a driver becomes unresponsive to warnings to put their hands on the steering wheel, the ADA systems will shut off before bringing the vehicle to a stop. This means that if the driver is distracted or medically impaired, the vehicle will just continue rolling forward-potentially off the road at speed-without any steering assist or speed control, until it eventually rolls to a stop or runs into something."
While this is technically true, WKWebView (which I believe is used by all non-Apple browsers on iOS) does allow Javascript JIT, because the renderer runs in a subprocess with these permissions. See: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19379739 .

But there are many other reasons besides JIT to want to have non-Apple-Webkit-based rendering engines (including wanting different JS engines with their own JIT) - and so IMO it's very much a restriction that regulators should force Apple to relax. The security considerations should be no different than those on a desktop platform.
I have mine since 2006 or 2007, easily one of the most perfect purchases in my life. I used it rather extensively for a while, had to change toner then, but by now I print maybe a bunch of sheets per year, and can't even remember the last time I had to change toner. Before that I used ink printers which broke all the time, not to mention ink getting dry.

Anyone who hasn't had the pleasure yet, there is a reason this gets brought up without fail when talking about printers. I have no idea if it's particular to laser printers, Brother laser printers or both, because that was the last printer I bought so far, I have no other experience other than the horrors of ink printers.

> The essence of the matter is that there is no high-level principle involved - humans get special treatment because humans write the law.

“The purpose of law is to advance the collective interests of humans in a society” is, I would argue, a high-level principal, and (with variations as to whether it applies to all humans or some subset, and which interests are considered privileged relative to others) nearly universal. Yes, the fact that humans are writing the laws is a reason that principle is chosen, but the idea that there are not high-level principle is just false.

I think they mischaracterize evolutionary theory and overstate the gap, if any, with physics. But I think there's some kernels of useful insight, like this:

"The more complex a given object, the less likely an identical copy can exist without selection of some information-driven mechanism that generates that object."
By the late nineties using both MD5 and SHA1 for "additional robustness" together in ad-hoc constructions was also en vogue. SSLv2 and SSLv3 are good examples. The outputs match the size of a SHA1, but it wouldn't be that shocking if the pipeline were some form of echo "$string" | md5sum | sha1sum.
I'm convinced all this "great replacement" stuff is a weird sexual thing. It's gotta be a fetish or something.

Dr. John Speth (University of Michigan, Ann Arbor), who also excavates at White Sands, used to half-joke that the people here during the glaciation must have made all of their tools out of ice. He was confident North America was inhabited for longer than it was then believed (~13,000 years). But aside from the coastal sites that would now be underwater (sea level rose as the glaciers melted), all the inland tools appear to have melted away.

> Can't be characterized as "right-leaning" or "left-leaning" or whatever.

Singapore's story is remarkable, like you said. But it can absolutely be characterized as right-leaning, with a conservative social policy marked by low individual freedom (low tolerance for antisocial behavior, definition of "antisocial" largely in the hands of the government) and high economic freedom (laissez-faire free market capitalism, small government[0]). On the Nolan chart[1], it would fall squarely in the Conservative side.

[0]: At government expenditures of ~15% of GDP, Singapore has by far the smallest government, in economic terms, of all developed countries.

Mastering Integration Testing with FastAPI – Alex Jacobs
>Explicitly what's wrong with listening to Joe Rogan?

Ehh, he's not particularly awful himself. I used to be a fan long ago, before the slide. It's just that his show now serves as the entry way to the crazy funnel of Jones, Peterson, Tate, et. al. for impressionable young men, which then leads to things like climate change denial and other (worse) conspiracy theories taking root.

Mostly it's just an indicator of poor critical thinking skills than anything else. Kind of like how it's been shown that the single most reliable indicator someone will believe in a given conspiracy theory is whether or not they believe in any others, even completely unrelated ones.

Not yet. The support is very limited.
MAANG isn't hiring officially, and only for critical roles and senior engineers on the q.t. It's an ostensible belt-tightening that's really about repress wages and placating Wall St. by extracting even more money during economy-wide years of massive profits. MAANGs don't have below L3 or L4. L3 or L4 is entry-level while IC6-7 are senior, and IC7-9 are custom tailored, under-specified roles of engineers who can make a million or more in TC.

> I'm sure some older gray beards will respond with "Never login to your personal devices with a work login". That's great advice for plenty of situations but there are plenty where it doesn't work.

I use several profiles on Windows with a mix between Microsoft logins and local accounts. It's a pain because Microsoft seems to design everything with the idea that every PC is a personal device for a single person with a single account.

IIRC Office has switched from machine based activation to user based activation. Microsoft thinks I should buy 4 MS365 subscriptions because I like to silo things with a few different profiles (ex: entertainment vs development). That's not going to happen. Instead of buying 1, I buy 0 and use alternatives even if they're not quite as good because I can't pay 4x to maintain compatibility between my own damn profiles.
