I think that was his point; it doesn't, and instead implies that the writer is hypocritical ("I'm going to swear, but I won't actually swear").
50% of marriages fail, 25% of surviving marriages are unhappy, so the odds of marrying, not divorcing, and being happy are a bit above 38%.

70% of divorces are initiated by women, and more in higher income brackets, yet only 50% of men undergoing divorce are unhappy about it, which means about 10% of married men are just waiting for their wives to take the first step in separation.

I do not want to excuse dishonesty, deception, breach of trust etc., but marriages are hard, humans are fallible, and age has taught me to be less judgemental of people failing on a difficult endeavor.
One does not preclude the other. This is not a Hollywood movie, the Resistance fighting against the Empire are more likely to commit atrocities, not less (because they are in a position of weakness).

I am reminded of the colonization of the USA : some of the Native American tribes were infamous for their atrocities (if I am not mistaken, ramped up against the colonists compared to what they usually did in war ?).

Of course in the long term the Resistance committing atrocities only hurts their own cause : it gives a justification for the Empire to commit genocide.

We will see whether Israel will take the opportunity, or will only leave genocide as a publicly made promise - note also that under the current situation, genocide is going to happen by sheer neglect if a significant fraction of the needed humanitarian aid is not let in.

Related, I also saw this project a little while ago: https://smallstep.com/blog/build-a-tiny-ca-with-raspberry-pi...

Which looks quite interesting to have HTTPS for my internal-only pages without need to deal with an external service, although you have to be very careful to setup your certs correctly with "Name Constraints" (https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5280#section-4.2.1.10) to avoid the risk of someone being able to MitM everything if they're able to get in and start issuing themselves certificates.
You can do the same thing with a generator.

x = 0
deque((x := x + 1 for _ in range(10)), maxlen=0)
print(x)

Using deque to consume generators is an old trick documented in the itertools recipes: https://docs.python.org/3/library/itertools.html#itertools-r...

It always seems strange to me that petroleum companies are entangling themselves with electricity and renewables. The Energy sector is not really a homogeneous thing, its basically held together by regulation, but otherwise their expertise is on very different levels: exporting pollution, being buddies with the world's most horrible regimes, dealing with wars and geopolitics etc.
Assuming the have the ok from the majority of the voting share. they would have to get an OK from the US, EU and a few other states. The EU would probably just say no, since both companies have major share alone in multiple markets and major competitors in others that would bring them an effective monopoly.this new company would kill competition from the start.
Isn't voluntary agreement between employer and employees better than regulations? They should be last resort, and they can't catch everything, such as https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38028660

Hope so. It's actually the first time I've seen it, but glad it's being raised, and hope it gets raised every time.

As far as I see, this isn't solving a problem as much as it is getting in at the ground floor on a technology that will take even more autonomy away from people.
> It isn’t rocket science to build a room sized dvd reader

It is. We have built rockets for 700+ years, a V2 reached space in 1944 and we went to the moon over half a century ago, over a decade before even the compact disc (1982).

If society collapses completely, I think it will be decades, possibly centuries before we even consider trying to read these. At that time, many DVDs might not be readable by DVD players anymore.
Yes, but there are advantages to doing some things inside your DBMS. Things have tradeoffs as always.
This made me look into the etymology of "engineer", and I was slightly surprised that it is all about weapons, and not so much bridges.

If social engineering counts, this should too.
Short answer: scheduler.

Long answer: web applications have usually tons of independent request. Each request does its own thing, might never communicate with other requests, touches the DB and returns. You have two choices in such scenarios. You can either maximise throughput or minimise latency. BEAM's scheduler choses the latter which is usually what you want for web. More detailed discussion: https://tkowal.wordpress.com/2015/01/27/the-unintuitive-late...

With:

- per process garbage collection

- one BEAM process per request

- short lived HTTP processes

you might never trigger garbage collection, the whole memory is deallocated at the end of requests.

It basically means, BEAM gives you high level languages like Gleam or Elixir that are fast to write and prototype as Rails or Django, but are almost as performant as handwritten memory managed applications written in low level language.

This is magic sauce in startups: the freedom to go fast, prototype and iterate with scalibility issues popping up waaay later than in Ruby/Python stacks (sometimes never - if your startup is successful without supporting whatsapp's user base :P)

And that's just if you are donig plain old HTTP backend. With new reactive architectures, keeping persistent processes server side and using LiveView instead of JS frameworks can again cut development time.

And then, there is support for AI with LiveBook and NX... It is weird how many hard issues BEAM just makes much easier.
This is the crux of the issue, isn't it ?

Same here, so I assume it depends a lot on one's entourage and we shouldn't generalize the way other commenters seem to enjoy.

This upgradable RW lock looks fundamentally broken in my opinion:

If you use such a lock, it is because you want to write something based on data that you read.

And nothing should change the date after your calculus and before the write.

But if you use 2 of such upgradable RW lock concurrently at the same time:
Both will read the original data, and so calculate something based on that, and they will just wait one after another to write.
But the second one will not notice and recalculate after the first write, or you will have a deadlock...

That's why I also said "the way things work here" because it's a cultural thing; you just don't mess with worker's right in Europe. It might not be against the law, but it's not a normal practise. From what I found online last time this happened in Sweden was in 1920s. I'm not from Sweden but I am European and I know that unions and strikes are a normal thing and everybody supports them.

If Elon tries to forcefully break up a strike, he will just amass the wrath of other unions and the entire Swedish population turning an issue of collective agreement into a political problem. I honestly don't see this ending well for Tesla.

I think seeking value in hobbies is a problem, they don't need to have any inherent value for the hobbyist other than being fun. I say it is a problem because it leads to a kind of mentality where one seeks productivity and optimization of RoI in all things in life. You are allowed to enjoy thing for no other reason than being fun. That being said, I agree with you, but I feel this kind of thinking could lead to see others who just want to enjoy a hobby as less than me, and that's where I draw the line.
There's no world where it's monopolistic to be the default choice when other choices exist. They're making no effort, so far as anyone is aware, to remove other search engine choices from any devices or browsers.
The same can be said about vegans and anti-alcoholic, so what should we say about those? Maybe that people react negatively when being condescendingly criticized?
Not often you see simracing mentioned here!

For sure there are gains to be made by having proper material as opposed to entry level, but those quickly become marginal.

The biggest gains by far are usually found in working on your driving style. Have a look at telemetry of someone who's slightly faster and work out the differences methodologically.

Shameless self-promotion: if you're racing in iRacing, have a look at https://garage61.net, we have over 125 million laps of telemetry to learn from.

copper becomes ductile between 300-600 C ( https://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/docs/documents/1353/tempe... )

piston ring seals are usually made of cast iron or steel. copper would probably work too for a while, it's good at conducting heat, there's ample cooling in engines, so it wouldn't melt, just wear out very quickly ... and then the engine performance degrades as the sealing gets worse and worse (and it starts to eat oil, soot gets everywhere, exhaust becomes visible), mpg goes down, but ... the car would probably run. (loss of 1 out of 4 pistons is not a catastrophic failure)

Is a competing model not allowed in that society? Why can't individuals make decisions for themselves?
Solely sticking to the law means paying minimum wage with maximum hours for any work type with no benefits. Negotiation and better terms are not part of the law, but I'm pretty sure you don't want to do without. Union agreements are the standard way to do this here, and refusing to negotiate with unions means refusing to cooperate with the work force market.

They can disagree with unions and the people within the law, just as they can fail as a business from making enemies of the whole country within the law. Civil customs and agreements are not meant to be law.

Yes. That also smacks of corporatism and "old boys club" probably in part because Sweden is a small country and, I imagine, everyone used to know everyone else in business and political circles.

This is my understanding of shaders:

Drawing a line on the CPU: a function looping through each pixel between point A and B and draw one pixel at a time sequentially. Runs once with exactly as many steps as there are pixels in the line.

Drawing a line on the GPU: a function checking if the pixel is on the line or not and draw if it's a match. Runs on all pixels on the screen at the same time, even ones that are far from the line.

Is this correct?

Passing a pointer doesn't always solve the problem.
The idea behind std::piecewise_construct is to control the
time at which the non-moveable object is constructed.
Simply passing a pointer means the object is created outside the container;
before the container is created. With std::emplace the container
is already (partially) created and gets control over creating
the objects it is going to contain. The container gets the power
to change the arguments to the constructor of its contained objects.
Surely a manual modification of the image would be a fairly easy way around this?

Anyway, that may not matter - I think what people are looking for here is the absence of being sued by someone else, not the ability to sue someone else. If I generate an image to put in my companies annual report, I'm not worried about someone else copying the image somewhere else.

This is why we have regulations. If Meta wants to target that market (and I assume they want), they'll have to conform. Could also be technical reasons that slow them down.

> Coming from Meta, and given Facebook, their main product, why would you think it can develop a better culture?

Because Meta does moderate content whereas Musk advocates free speech and doesn't mind the toxicity as far as I can tell. Each side has its pros and cons, and there's room for both. Meta gets a lot of flack but I think content moderation at that scale is a hard problem, politically and technically.

They can and they do - who says otherwise? If a model is very pervasive this also is expressed in people moving to other countries, which in the EU isn't that difficult (and conversely, there are also people moving the other way. A bit like a market for societal models).

So really, individuals do make decisions and act on them on many levels.
I lived outside Fukuoka for a while. It was a much easier airport to get in and out of. I usually took the train from the airport that dropped me off a few blocks from my apartment in Iizuka. But yes, that train also had space for bags. I usually tried to manhandle my own bags for international flights, but Yamato for everything in-country. My spouse and I did rent a car once (I got a Japanese driving license, so had to use it.) I also can't recommend driving near big cities, but out west near Aso there were some great rural areas to tour by automobile (though it would have been much cheaper to travel by bus.)

Though... we did randomly come upon the Panawave Laboratory, and the sight of a gaijin driving around seemed to shock some people our in the middle of the more rural neighborhoods.
Never mind this bird's journey. The most surprising thing about this is that they apparently have GPS trackers that are small and light enough to attach to a bird and have long enough battery life to be able to track them over longer periods of time.

This rediculous false dichotomy of "if not for excessive telemetry it would be crashy" is so beyond reason. If it crashes just pop up the crash reporter and prompt the user with a button to send the crash report in. Done. No ethical issues there.

But no apparantly you think microsoft needs a constant faucet if your information to prevent crashes. Golly i wonder how developers managed before said faucets.

A statically typed embeddable language with pointers - very rare.

When security helps attackers... that's a bit ironic.

Anyway, this article is exactly why I don't want to work in computer security, you constantly have to look behind you, and government A/government B/black hats etc will always try funny things, because they belong to side A or B or whatever, and I bet a lot of security people got either threatened or even had targets on their backs or just assassinated.

I don't really know if some of them got assassinated, because that might not make the news, but that's not a really a domain I would like to work in.

I guess it attracts people who like competition, but I don't really see the value of working in security, for the same reason I don't see the point of joining an army to learn how to fight.
Criticism is fine, but I think people should be careful not to conflate the two.

It’s fine to say “I think Tesla should pay more and not hire scabs”

The difference between law and opinion determines how this is enforced.

If actions are illegal, the government forces compliance.

If it is a matter of opinion, then it is up to the involved parties to sort it out themselves. This could be based on their negotiating leverage. Strikes, scabs, boycotts, and sympathy strikes are all fair game
