I feel like Rust makes you pay a big cost upfront, and the benefits are often not worth that cost.

It's easier to program if I don't have to worry about ownership/lifetimes. -- Garbage Collection allows not needing to worry about lifetimes; and preventing the same value from being mutated from multiple places in the code generally isn't such a significant problem.

With high level programming (in JavaScript), you don't have to pay those costs.

I like to believe that Rust's strict discipline about ownership/lifetimes encourages code that's fast/lightweight, though.

Styles are quite varied (imho) within the experimental and ambient genres. Managed to get some of these pieces in a few short films, they tend to be horror/thriller type. Slow listening.
Threading depends on implementation of each encoder/decoder - most video encoders and decoders are multithreaded, audio ones not so much. At least that was the state of the world the last time I've looked into ffmpeg internals.
>Self diagnoses (and diagnoses over the internet) are pretty harmful

Self-diagnoses can be legitimate or not - depends on the person doing them. They are often a necessity, in an environment where a professional diagnosis takes thousands of dollars or years in waiting (and is often done badly, by ill-informed professionals, like the many-decades prevailing myth that women/girls "can't be autistic", or that "ADD and autism can't coincide").

As (in this case) they are also based not on bloodwork or some physical indicators, but on a subjective assessment of a person's way of thinking, the person having the actual experience is often more qualified than the professional. Same to how you don't really need a doctor to tell you you're gay.

>One might even argue that the labeling aspect of a certain disorder (particularly a mental one) by a "professional" to not be particularly helpful too in addressing ones problems

One might argue that the false dichotomy between professionals and laymen, where the former is supposed to hold all the keys to knowledge and the latter to passively consult and follow the advice of the former, is a problem in itself.

And a little outdated in modern societies where the "laymen" are not some mud dwelling peasants who never went to school and only know farm work, but univercity-educated (even over-educated) in their own right, and libraries are not confined to the rich or the scholars, but every book ever written is a click away.

In any case, a self-diagnosis doesn't give you the required paperwork to get drugs, or to get benefits, or specific accomondations, or anything like that. So it's not like it hurts society by taking resources from "legitimate" diagnoses.

Last, but not least, pointing that X symptoms is "quite common to ADD/ADHD" is not self-diagnosis, it's not even diagnosing. It's a suggestion hinting to a possible condition. It could very well be used for seeking a professional diagnosis.

Or do you think people with ADD/ADHD just go to the doctor to get diagnosed out of the blue, and not because of some similar suspicion, spotting some unexplained symptoms or themselves, or identification with some symptoms they've read about?
This is one theory, but it is certainly not established or the consensus view.

I my guess is that what's really happening is that Apple is being paid off not to compete in search. As Google has shown, search can be incredibly lucrative. The profit motive would be pushing Apple to this end. They have a large base of loyal users that Apple Search could be be pushed out to as the default.

Google pays Apple enough not to take the risk in trying. If Apple Search was a hit it would be a threat to Google. There's always the possibility that it would be the next Bing or Apple Maps, an inferior money pit, so Apple is happy to take the cash.

If anything, I don’t do that because it makes your rice dry and not delicious.
Or, and I assume that’s what the GP was looking for, you write none of that and just fly by the seat of your pants.
Pretty much. The issue is that the C version is horribly error prone and unsafe. Any time you lose by writing a load of `borrow()`s you will get back 100 times over by not having to debug races on a microcontroller!
I'll be keeping an eye on this then, because the above code is ridiculous; if it's the best (code-wise or performance-wise) way to do it in Rust, I can see the complaints.
That’s totally fair. If someone doesn’t have the visibility into the decision, and isn’t aware of harm coming from their actions, then they don’t have a moral responsibility.
For better or worse the use of GPL is going away, even the future of Linux kernel is not guaranteed.

In the realm of IoT FOSS UNIX like operating systems, all the contendants are using a mix of Apache, MIT and BSD licenses, including the ZephyrOS sponsored by the Linux Foundation.

When the GPL generation is gone from the face of the Earth, it won't last long that UNIX-like OSes get another steward alternative to the Linux kernel, with a more appealing license to big corps.

I think a lot of folks reading this will immediately be critical and tell you exactly how easy it would have been to solve your problems from spiraling out of control. They are likely largely factually correct.

What is not being said is that many folks are operating at the limits of their executive function. Add something like this to an already stressful period of time to such people, and they simply will not be able to advocate for themselves in an effective manner or make logical decisions in the moment.

I say this from personal experience. Small stuff like this, in particular gatekeeping kafkaesque stuff, absolutely kills my life in a way that is not logical or explainable. It effectively shuts my brain down. I've lost many years of my life due similar issues, where in the end someone else could have handled them as a minor annoyance.

Cognition's advanced Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) features provide developers with valuable tools. They can assess and maintain data quality efficiently, integrate company-specific data domains securely, guide LLMs to relevant data based on user intent, and automatically optimize retrieval strategies for different queries. These features enhance the platform's capabilities for building context-aware LLM applications.

With Cognition, we ensure that the large language model receives only correct and contextually relevant data, significantly improving the accuracy of responses required in enterprise settings.
When I say that we should trust the experts/scientists, I don't mean trust or belief in the same you would trust a priest or a guru or your parents when you're little. Experts should be trusted in their fields because other experts in those fields trust them, and they trust them because they published and they studied and they prove they understand their field.

It's not appeal to authority when I go to Einstein and ask about quantum mechanics and then reference his answer that light manifest a wave-particle duality; he is after all an worldwide recognised expert in quantum mechanics. But! If I were to ask him about whether abortion and then say: Abortion is so and so because Einstein says it's so and so and he's worldwide recognised expert -- that is appeal to authority.
Rust does, in fact, have monads. There are multiple implementations of Haskell-style do syntax in Rust: https://crates.io/crates/do-notation https://crates.io/crates/monadic

Not that that's necessary, seeing as Rust is already procedural. You can just use regular old procedural syntax.
If you like movies, pick books that were made into movies you like. The books are always much better and provide a lot more detail. I tend to like books that are rooted in some version of our reality and not sci-fi or fantasy, etc.

There also is historical fiction - authors deeply researching that period of time to paint a realistic narrative but with fictional characters.
I wasn’t expecting it to describe everything in GT. But I was hoping it would describe something about how these rust wrappers are implemented (or at least link to some code or docs). Being able to inspect your compiled machine code at a high level is really unique property I haven’t seen before and want to learn more about. I didn’t see anything about it in the book either.
> The government turned a blind eye to that

That's the First Amendment for you.
C/C++: You spend 45% of development time fixing memory bugs.

Rust: You spend 45% of development time fighting with borrow checker/Rust syntax.

GC-based languages: You spend those 45% for anything else you like...
Yup, and if you actually meet a use-case where Rust has a major performance advantage above Go, typically you’re already too deep into the low-level details of optimization that you’ll constantly fight with the borrow checker or just scatter unsafe all over your code.
This doesn't make JavaScript actually run in parallel, does it? I.e if there is any IO to wait on then JS runs, but if there are multiple pure JS asyncs scheduled to run then these will still run one at a time?

Secondly, there is async iteration which is already pretty good syntax wise.
That’s a very good resource, nice find! I think we can agree CO is between AA and AAA. I think it leans much more on the AAA side from my industry experience, but arguments could be made that it’s not all the way there and that therefore it’s AA. But this is a bit semantic. They make AAA money and have AAA standards and marketing. And that’s a bit unusual for 40 people, of which 10 are probably admin and 30 are dev.

Electrical network frequency (ENF) analysis is an audio forensics technique for validating audio recordings by comparing frequency changes in background mains hum in the recording with long-term high-precision historical records of mains frequency changes from a database.

The technology has been hailed as "the most significant development in audio forensics since Watergate."

How do you feel about the conflict between Hume and Hobbes?
You do realize that verbal agreements are, in fact, binding? Just because companies can get away with breaking the law in instances such as this doesn't mean you can't be upset at them breaking the law.
For Europe, there are academic and public organizations that publish these ENF backlog since about 2017.

For US, I couldn't find any open dataset. For these regions, I'm basically recording the sound of an A/C motor to get the reference data, but I only have a few months of backlog.

> I enjoyed hearing the 4 academics who are primary implementers and maintainers taking questions from the audience about why Racket is not targeted at industry.

That's interesting. That seems like a flip from a few years ago. What was the summary regarding this?
I might be completely wrong, but the impression I got from your comment is that you haven't been exposed to many implementations using non-trivial concurrency :)

Fair call though, I guess. It doesn't really matter, but I'm certainly used to TypeScript and JavaScript.
But what if you don't want to let go of spite? What if spite, anger is a shield that protects you from seeing yourself properly?

All this conformity school, parents, fucked me up. I have this deep desire to appear normal. All my life, I've been trying to be normal, appear normal, learn what's required for normalness. Without spite, without anger of everything that fucked me up, of what it made me become means I cannot blame everyone for my problems any more. And I cannot deal with that.

From time to time, when I look myself in the mirror, the reflection asks "Does this look normal to you?" and have some sort of mini mental breakdown. Spite and anger is my shield, a deferred shield, I know. But really, I cannot handle myself in the mirror right now.

Published history in Mercurial is sacred [1]. Modern Mercurial fully embraces history editing, and provides (IMO) better tools than git to facilitate (safe, collaborative) history editing.

[1] You can still change published history if you try hard enough with a lot of co-ordination.

If Mercurial doesn't support cleaning up of commits, then the commit history of Mercurial itself [2] wouldn't look so clean.

This is like saying your neighbors siding is off color while your own is falling off and the framing is rotting.

Both are problems with siding, one is far more serious than the other. I'm not a fan of Java, but cpp people being disingenuous is a pet peeve. "Modern" cpp still sucks, it just sucks less - it's not useful to pretend otherwise.

I think the part about bank officials detracts from your point. Whether or not its actually correct, I think its a separate and divisive issue than highlighting the contradiction of requiring that everyone should be able to get a bank account while demanding that banks not give bank accounts to some people

There is no other company you’d say that about.

Steve Jobs and Tim Cook was/is Apple’s CEOs. No one praises or criticizes the chairman of Apple or its CTO for the company’s direction or vision. Most people wouldn’t even be able to name that person.

Satya Nadella is MSFT’s CEO. He’s the one people talk about changing MSFT’s direction and vision. Not the chairman or CTO.

Heck, when Musk himself bought Twitter he made himself the CEO? Were you claiming that the person driving the decisions and providing vision for the company for the first few months Musk bought Twitter was the chairman or the CTO?

Given how liberally the DMCA is applied, you definitely don't want to be on the wrong side of that.

I remember some guy that wrote a WoW bot and got sued using the DMCA, with the argument that his bot was circumventing the anti-cheat and the anti-cheat could be seen as a 'mechanism protecting copyrighted material', because it was safeguarding access to the game servers, the servers were generating parts of the game world (such as sounds) dynamically, and those were under copyright... Wild stuff.

It comes down a lot to your definition of responsibility. Yes, those teachers were adults who could make their own decisions. But sometimes you can make all the decisions that you see as being the best and most informed at the time you make them, and still produce poor outcomes, simply because you don't have the resources or knowledge or ability to do better.

So should we judge the teachers based on how they tried to make decisions in the moment when the author was young, or should we judge them based on the results of their decisions with the knowledge that we have now? I find that quite a hard question to answer definitively, but I do know that I tend to use the former rule for myself and the latter rule for others, which certainly seems quite unfair to me.
I sometime wonder if in the 25th century people will be searching for the exact location of Hogwarts from Harry Potter.

Sibling comment (last paragraph about python binding) is spot on: modest c++ knowledge puts doing a native component in a otherwise memory safe environment deeply into "don't try this at home!" territory. Modest rust knowledge? Sure, you might find yourself having picked a fight that you are unable to win, giving up before finding a solution the borrow checker accepts. But the danger of ending up with a quick success that later turns out to be an infinite supply of mystery segfaults is rather low. The failure mode for being not quite sufficiently good at it for the problem at hand is far more benign in rust.

Modest c++ knowledge means knowing that you should better not try using that knowledge, which is quite terrible as an on-ramp.

To the degree that there's a consensus view, it's probably that Atlantis didn't exist in reality. (Or, at best, is based on very weak echoes of something that existed.) To the degree that it is based, however loosely on historical reality, Santorini is one of the better candidates.
It can be hidden away in a function or a macro. In any sensible code base it would be.

I don’t think funding is the issue here: a junior NYPD cop makes more than the average NYC resident before overtime[1], and gets relatively plum benefits while doing so. Like most forces, they’re also pensioned at 20 years.

The issue here is residency and interest: the NYPD is excluded from ordinary civil service requirements, meaning that they aren’t required to live in the city they police. The majority of them choose not to, meaning that the city’s law enforcement is largely made up of people driving their cars into the city and treating as an “outside” place, rather than their home. Forcing them to live in the city wouldn’t fix everything about the NYPD, but I suspect we’d see less petty infringement of traffic laws by the NYPD themselves.
