You can see with a quick skim that the content is very application focused. I just don’t know enough to know what I don’t know. If one were to learn Linear Algebra using this textbook, would it be a proper base? Would you have grasped the fundamentals?

That's my take on it, and what I found so increasingly boring about those games

Starfield is Fallout, but in space, Skyrim is Oblivion, but in the north, Fallout is Oblivion, but in post-nuke retrofuture, and Oblivion is Morrowind, but in a thinly veiled roman empire setting.

I mean, from gameplay to quests, it's the exact same thing, reskinned. e.g porphyric hemophilia was cool in Morrowind, but the exact set up + quests is reproduced over and over again in subsequent games (incl. across franchises!). I'm halfway wondering (and would not be surprised) if Starfield had vampires as well.

It's nice if you enjoy the thing a lot (good for fans! I'm all for them enjoying it) but is otherwise so repetitive that what was fun back then is not anymore, and a fresh coat of paint increasingly failed at saving the later entries.

Is it obviously a wrong approach?

You see someone make sense of a complex topic, be able to cut through bullshit and appearances, you can use that as a "character witness". Maybe that person has solid thought processes and may get other complex issues right too. There are a few people who I see to be often proven right.

Clearly there is a middle ground, we should not blindly follow some authority, but some skills generalize, and some people may be worth listening to on general topics, and not just the ultra-specialized experts.

I think this sort of attitude towards hardware devices will massively limit the potential for attacks on our hardware via our ports. We should push for protocols that verify the hardware on the other end is either a known or approved device.
Sounded totally credible. For me it evoked the situation of GM plants that show up on plots of land of anti-GM farmers, rendering their crops commercially void (and theoretically infringing on the GM licence).

My thought was more: would it not be possible to counter-sue and get damages from them in court. For after all, they "polluted" your lab / plot with something that you never asked for, and that is now causing damages / lost earnings.
> Savant Systems, a Massachusetts-based home automation company, worked with Apple to create a mechanism for remotely controlling the motion of a vehicle using a wireless mobile device. They filed the patent application in 2014, which was granted in 2016. They submitted an updated patent in 2016, which was granted in 2019. Steve Jobs’s name was among the inventors in both these patents.

How the fuck is this patent worthy? The patent describes nothing more than using a smartphone to remotely control a ship's various control methods backed by a data link that's monitored for link quality.

That would be a good investment, yes.

Unfortunately, a Mars colony doesn't realize that investment. There wont be a self-sustainable colony on a planet, where even the planets gravity well (which we cannot change, unless someone has SG1-Asgard-level technology lying around) prohibits long term survivability of a species that evolved in a gravity well almost three times as strong.

The problem is, no matter how many rebellious public intellectuals we

As I understand, "complex exponential" function f(x) = e^ix must satisfy only two equalities:

f(0) = 1
f'(x) = i f(x)

So any function that satisfies these equalities can work as a "complex exponential" function which we denote as e^ix.

So we can define a function with period of 1, and use it everywhere — then "2π" vanishes from most equations, and the complex math still works and all equalities hold.*

While in a startup breath is desirable, in a big company it will set you back. Of course, it depends on the hiring manager, but they have better resources than a single person for diversifying the collective skillset.

It is similar to pitching your startup, you don’t say I have many products to convince them that you have a better chance. On the contrary, you’d be implying that you can do their job better than them.

The other issue is stale resumes, at least in my experience. I've been in the industry for over a decade, and been in big-name tech companies for nine years. My profile makes it clear that I'm a senior engineer.

But I got an e-mail from a recruiter recently about a desktop support position. Turns out, they have a resume from about a year after I made the move from small business sysadmin to AWS support engineer (these days, my resume includes things like "senior SRE" and "devops engineer at a quantitative hedge fund"). They didn't really bother to verify whether their copy of my resume was at all recent.

I have been using Crisp for several years, and often we need to do some actions to manage the users' accounts.

Some actions we were doing manually:

- sync contact information in our systems

- cancel their subscription

- activate trial

- refund accounts

- create internal dev tickets

That's why I created Quick Actions, a plugin for Crisp to allow support chat operators to trigger actions directly from their inbox sidebar.
Agreed.

Admittedly, I cannot comment on replication options for Sqlite. I have not bothered to even look into this. To me, it already goes beyond the purpose of what makes Sqlite great --- to be a powerful sql in one file. Great for programs that need a storage solution without the reliability of being connected to another machine.

In my client programs using Sqlite, it has been designed in such a way that if the Sqlite file is corrupted then it is not the end of the world. We know what didn't get sent to the server so we recreate the file and resend, etc.

(However, our Sqlite files have been very reliable with the exception of software updates, but we ensure the sqlite db tables are empty before you can update the client software)

Thats why I specified "client software" in my original comment, but I don't see why server-side daemons cannot use it as well. I guess If more than 1 program needs it, though, a combination of CRUD operations, I would recommend something else.
It was for me as well, like, I was happy to be able to play Morrowind at ~15 fps at the time. But we can do better now; at the time, hardware was a limiting factor, but now if a game runs like shit, it's always the developer's fault.

Recent example, Cities Skylines 2; onereason it runs like shit is that the pedestrians still get fully rendered teeth even though you're far away and can't see them. Why do they even have teeth? It's a city building sim.

Or the latest Pokemon game, it looks like it could've been made 20 years ago in terms of visuals, but it runs terribly.

That is not a good idea. Breaking backwards compatibility with a language that large is going to damage the ecosystem. the Python 2 -> 3 transition shows how slow and costly, ironically enough, this can be.

Stroustrup is correct when he says the way forward is evolutionary. In evolution you never cut things, they're always phased out. Vestigial structures stick around. Incremental change is ultimately going to be more successful, causing schisms and splitting the language community is not going to be success.

If you are trying to be a well-rounded person with well-founded opinions on different topics, it makes sense to believe that there are others like you who are further along the way.

Both of your examples have a very strong technical component, either understanding the underlying biology/epidemiology or understanding war theory and practice. It is indeed unlikely that someone is an expert in both.

But many important topics have far fewer, if any, objective truths attached to it. In the case of covid restrictions, opinions should obviously be founded on science, but science can only inform our moral choices, not make them for us. Is the damage done to developing minds worth locking down schools if it reduces the spread of covid? Can there be a state/societal mandate to force people to stay in their homes, or even to get vaccinated?

You can come to very different conclusions based on how your worldview is constructed, and I think the sign of a true intellectual is that they can coherently describe theirs, and make other intellectuals understand it, even if they are diametrically opposed to it.
Not sure who is that Patrick guy, but that is a horrible long piece of junk with literally no info in it. Other than the mention of AI, there is nothing concrete.

Not by this definition. The distinction between mathematical theorems and scientific theories is a useful one.

I'd wholly bought into that narrative. Over the past year, I've become so opposed to Microsoft that I'm likely to make my next laptop purchase a MacBook, even though I'm a longtime PC gamer. I just refuse to use Microsoft products anymore. Apple might have their own issues, but at least they're up front about who they are.
I'm not seeing a very sympathetic analysis of this. This phenomenon is as old as time, with Socrate's students hanging on his every word.

In my view its an entirely reasonable thing: you encounter a person who can articulate a coherent ideology, method, system (etc.) which is entirely new to you. You use that person as a means of learning this system; and when you've learnt it all, you move on.

The key thing is you arrive at a critical point where you have seen their pov and can criticise it; and that you dont end up in a cult-like following of their ideas.

This cultishness is everywhere in academia, see, eg., all the departments that are "Kantian" or "Wittigensteinian" --- people forever trapped in the work of one author. I am very suspicious of "History of"-type disciplines for this reason.

I dont see this as having to do with social media, but if at all, maybe it accelerates it. I certainly think you need much more than 6mo with any substantive person.

I am relatively sure that it is not legal to restrict photographs like this in a public place; the UK has a relatively broad freedom of panorama (buildings have no right to a copyright of themselves), and quoting from the relevant Wikipedia article [1]:

"In the United Kingdom there are no laws forbidding photography of private property from a public place. Photography is not restricted on land if the landowner has given permission to be on the land or the photographer has legal right to access, for example Byways Open to All Traffic or a public right of way or an area of open access land. "

At the very least Temple Quay has an easement permitting a right of access. As long as you don't sit with a telephoto lens taking pictures through windows -- invading an individual's right to privacy or potentially coming under harassment law -- I think you should be fine (and frankly I'd like to see signs like this challenged).

I agree with you that e is not arbitrary. I say that the period of 2π for e^ix is arbitrary, because we've arbitrarily defined periods of sin and cos as 2π.

If we defined a function sin to take not an angle in radians, but in degrees (with a period of 360.0), and used that definition of sin in our math, then our complex e^ix would have a period of exactly 360, and the entire complex math would still work — for example, Euler's formula below would still hold:

e^ix = cos x + i sin x

And people in comments would rave about how magic number 360 is, and its magic properties were discovered by Romans two thousand years ago.
I would hope it is, if it drinks battery instead of sipping.

But I got no real complaints about my HP50g, TI-86, TI-89 or v200 displays in the first place.

Your failure to understand what I am saying is abysmal.

>That is what I said. I showed a mathematical statement and I showed how you could falsify it.
>Since you said "mathematics is not falsifiable" I have shown your statement is not true.

You have taken it upon yourself to interpret "Mathematics is not falsifiable" as broadly as needed in order to confirm your own biases; and then proceeded to attack a strawman instead of a steelman. That's the lack of charity...

>You were the one who decided that the distinction between conjectures and theorems is important.

And you were the one who decided that it isn't; so you falsely equated them.

What you have demonstrated is the falsification of the statement "X is a theorem"; not the falsification of "mathematics is not falsifiable." - a hasty generalization fallacy.

Which doesn't demonstrate anything of import or relevance whatsoever. Obviously a non-theorem is not a theorem. This is no more interesting than demonstrating that non-Mathematics is not Mathematics.

This in no way diminishes or falsifies my own claim that theorems are unfalsifiable! And neither is Mathematics.

Because if you do falsify it - then it was never a theorem. By definition. Theorems are true, not false. A false theorem is a contradiction in terms. A misconception. An error in reasoning.

Maybe Euler wasn't a Mathematician either. Who knows? Those sort of questions are undecidable.

I love c++, but honestly I see less reasons to use it instead of slower things like python ruby etc.

C++ is just too slow to compile and it's really not nice to use.

C++ is great to write libraries that need to be fast, but in general, most of what people write should be in interpreted languages, and when speed really matters, use C++ to remove bottlenecks.

Most of software doesn't need to be written in C++.
