If it's a macro, then the preprocessor expands the macro at the callsite (which then expands the __FILE__ and __LINE__ macros in that location).

If you use a function, then the __FILE__ and __LINE__ expand inside that function and point to the location inside the function rather than the callsite of the function.

Here's the corresponding Reuters article, which I could read in its entirety:

https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/sweden-plans-new-nuc...

Key points:

- They intend to build the equivalent of two new conventional nuclear reactors by 2035 (presumably meaning something like 2000 megawatts of generating capacity, but it could come from small reactors).

- They intend to build the equivalent of 10 new conventional reactors by 2045.

The government has not yet announced what sort of funding model will be used to get the new reactors built.

Linebarger's Psychological Warfare (1954) suggests making substantial use —in 'white' propaganda, at least— of omission:

> The Japanese who obediently hated the Americans when it was their duty to do so nevertheless could not help looking at maps that showed where the Americans actually were. Nazis who despised us and everything we stood for nevertheless studied the photographs of our new light bombers. The appeal of credible fact is universal; propaganda does not consist of doctoring the fact with moralistic blather, but of selecting that fact which is correct, interesting, and bad for the enemy to know.

Edit:

My current team is a hulk assembled from a few previously broken teams. Essentially no one is doing the work they were hired for and there is fairly intense resistance from other areas of the business when we try to make change.

Lesson here is to be diligent about finding out why the team you will managing exists and a bit of how it came to be during the interview process.

Thanks for the response, it gave me a grim chuckle.

SpaceX's 2nd Starship launch on Nov. 18: How it will work

I think it would make sense to learn web development and use AI alongside it. Seems like no matter what you end up doing working alongside AI tools will be a part of the job so the experience with it will be useful.

If AI advances to the point where large swathes of workers even amongst developers are put out of work, then worrying about your own job is a little beside the point. Will be a large and apparent social issue then. I am still skeptical this will happen but if you had asked me 3 years ago could AI do what it is capable of already by today I would have said with 100% certainty there is not chance so I'm holding back my opinion at this point.

That's one of these things where you can spend quite some effort to get that right but it's not going to be useful for anything deeper. That's like saying "here, we have implemented Newton's mechanics in fundamental types, now you can in theory simulate a body up from its atoms!" and while that would sound compelling if you don't know much about physics, it would quickly become useless once you know more about physics.

Doing electrician’s certification in Germany right now. And there is elephant in the room - energy demand can’t be met internally anymore. So politicians draw nice plans for smart grids and heat pumps with wall boxes that can be turned off remotely by grid operators. I really don’t know how it ends. Probably burning coal in Poland and begging France to provide enough nuclear energy.
Good for Finland, now does that scale to the rest of the world? What if there is a coup? What if there is war? what if we stop maintaining these places because of a government collapse?

The kind of storage we would need in the Nordics is around 1 week of total consumption. That is roughly how long the longest really cold windless periods last in the winter (basically a large high pressure zone parking itself over the area and they can be big enough to cover pretty much all of Sweden) and sun is kinda bad during the winter this far north.

Sorry, how is this any safer for the journalist? If their phone is compromised in a way such that someone can login and control their Signal app, their chat logs are already compromised. I’m just saying there should be the ability to export those logs once you’ve logged in.

But if they don’t want to provide that, then:

1) Why does the Android app support this?

2) They should warn users of this BEFORE holding their data hostage, and not market Signal like it’s the right solution for everyone.
That's a really good point, the idea of chasing 'balance' could just become another stress point. The aim with Calmulate is more about finding ways to minimize stress and boost productivity, hoping that a sense of balance naturally follows.

"Nah, green bubble is a point of pride. You didn't fall for Apple's marketing tricks, you are the edgy person who Thinks Different." This concept alone will make it so it never reaches 100%.

Not to mention, Apple's security is so terrible, I imagine corporations are going to be banning iphones. Its never going to be a monopoly or a near monopoly.

Apple's positioning is targeted to people who buy Veblen goods. As long as there is a market for phones that are high quality, Apple will never get a 'near' monopoly.

The Swedish government initial stance was that the market should completely bear the burden of the costs for nuclear energy. Though they had to walk that back because Vattenfall clearly pointed out that unless the government goes in with subsidies they won't do it. The government had earlier proposed the equivalent of ~40 billion euro in credit guarantees, but that wasn't enough.

So now the goverment and vattenfall is working out an agreement where the state takes part of the risk (and profit, if any).

Coming from a right-wing government that has ideals of a market based economy, it's ... counterintuitive that this is the way they want to do it.

Sweden doesn't use coal to any appreciable degree.

Hydro provides about 42%, nuclear 29%, wind 21%, thermal power 5.8%, and "unspecified" at 1.9%.

What about the same but in a different light:

"Those that are most likely to commit atrocities are those that are most likely to believe in absurdities."
Speaking of topping up which I agree with, I think it bears saying here that today with unexpanded nuclear in Sweden, wind accounts for only about 20% of energy production. Or if only including renewable sources NOT including nuclear, wind still only accounts for about 30%.
WHO: Loneliness global health priority with new Commission on Social Connection
Call to donations, ads, pre-mined cryptocurrencies, selling cosmetics, premium features no free service offers, partnering with other organizations, etc...

They already do some of these, and some are less popular than others, but the key is to keep the essential features free and easy.

On Discord for instance, a free account is enough to cover all of most people needs, but you get a little extra by paying a subscription, and it is enough for Discord to be worth billions. Maybe not the perfect example since Discord has a critical mass, but no one wants to leave just because they don't have premium features (larger uploads, higher resolution streaming, flashy emoji) for free.

For Signal, it seems like just calling for donations is enough. They have a good image, so they can do that. It can actually be a solid business plan, look at Wikipedia, they get more than $100M a year doing that despite the controversy.
Many, actually:

I am still erring on the side of skepticism around AI "taking all jobs with computers" but have to admit that seeing the progress has made me doubt my position a bit. Even if it doesn't take ALL jobs and only relatively low level ones that is still an enormous amount of work that will at the very least change drastically.

What really shook me is that GPT-4 can spit out quite solid code for various things. I know there is a lot more to software development than just writing code but if you had asked me 3 years ago if AI would be able to code AT ALL within 10 years I would have said "no chance" with 100% certainty. Had to accept I was very wrong about that and don't have the technical background to really assess how far/fast this stuff can go.

Maybe I'm the only one here but this so-called "transparency" in the form of a single blog post doesn't instill much trust in me. I have been an avid Signal user since the TextSecure days and still recommend Signal over any other messenger. However:

- There were times (e.g. during the introduction of MobileCoin) when the Github repositories hadn't seen any update for months, while they were still releasing new app versions on a regular basis. Heck, last time I checked there were not even public changelogs for any of the apps. Calling Signal "open-source" is a stretch at best.

- The Signal team time and again has failed to react to criticism of the usage of Intel SGX, or of how they completely messed up the introduction of the Signal PIN. And let's not talk about MobileCoin. Yes, being "open-source" or "nonprofit" doesn't imply they need to ask their users for permission or respond to every complaint. However, a minimum amount of openness and debating critical features in public would go a long way here.

- I would like to see some transparency regarding the overall foundation and corporate structure, beyond just silently filing form 990 years with significant delay. For instance, it seems Brian Acton can elect and dissolve the entire board just by himself[0, 1]?

Long story short, before donating to Signal I'd like to see a proper and continuous commitment to transparency, not just a once-in-time blog post.

Yeah I found this out the hard way when travelling recently. There are some great apps that let you buy cheap data-only eSIMs in dozens of countries. You can even buy an eSIM before you travel. It’s crazy convenient and much cheaper than roaming fees.

My girlfriend could keep her home phone line enabled while using the eSIM but I couldn’t, even though we have the same model of phone! Turns out her home line uses a physical sim, but mine is set up using an eSIM and the iPhone 12 can only have 1 eSIM enabled at a time. You can do 1 physical + 1 eSIM, but not 2 esims.

I couldn’t get texts or calls from home without noodling with my phone settings each time. And FaceTime kept enrolling and unenrolling my number.
> I've seen far too many places where db instances run with default settings out of the box, queries missing basic indexes, no one even cared to run an explain analyze.

Indeed! One place I worked at, there was something like 10x (forget exactly) gains to be had simply by editing the MySQL config to match the workload. Seems like nobody bothers anymore. There is so much money to be saved by reducing excess operating costs.
For Sweden not that much. Sweden was always an energy exporter and not really depending on Russia.

Neighbouring countries such as Finland have been more dependant on Russia and the imports from Sweden have increased because of cutting the Russian gas. This has had secondary effects on Sweden by increasing the electricity price.

There is. But the nature of popular media is that it is desired by the populous. Lots of cheap places and venues have no name bars with no name musicians and singers playing all the time.

But if you want to see someone that appeals to the whole populace, then you will have to compete with the whole populace.
Three Mile Island nuclear accident -> regulatory changes + drop in public confidence -> funding problems -> project delays and cancellations -> funding problems
Not directly, Sweden is a net exporter of electricity.
Inside the spinal column (the bones), not into the cord itself but just outside a thin layer (the dura mater - Latin for "tough mother") around it (thus "epidural" - "outside the dura"). Labor epidurals (which are most epidurals) are placed in the lower lumbar region. The five lumbar vertebrae are creatively named L1 through L5; the spinal cord itself ends around L2, and below that level the spinal column just provides a space for the nerve roots to be protected. Whatever; the local anesthetic diffuses across it just fine.

But yes, you do have to keep in mind things like timing of anticoagulant usage (it's bad if you have a bleeding spot that doesn't want to stop, but it's catastrophic if you have a bleeding spot inside a bony cavity that can't expand - you can easily have a big bleed whose pressure compresses and damages the spinal cord higher up).
You have to assume anything not tested for (that helps) is used at the top.

Exactly. They won't because .... reasons.
Perhaps it was a bad choice of words. What I mean is that they say "you don't need to trust us", yet they require you to run through them. They refuse to build their system in a decentralized way, and the more that time goes by the more the decentralized alternatives are showing they are as secure as Signal without forcing us to accept their restrictions like mandatory use of phone numbers for authentication.

I really like the batteries included model. It would be so cool if Git managed your issues and discussions as well, instead of having them locked to one platform.

But... I don't see a free Fossil cloud host with GitHub level corporate support, and multiple alternatives.

It seems like there are lots of really interesting alternatives to Git itself, but Git is the standard everyone knows, so I don't really even bother looking into using anything else.

That hardly seems conclusive. For example,

> Meanwhile, players also eat less during tournaments, simply because they don't have the time or the appetite. "The simple explanation is when they're thinking about chess, they're not thinking about food," says Ewan C. McNay, assistant professor of psychology in the behavioral neuroscience program at the University of Albany.

That seems far more likely. I'm sure many of us can relate to working through lunch when we have an intense deadline, and not even realizing we're hungry until hours later.

> According to Ashley, India's first grandmaster, Viswanathan Anand, does two hours of cardio each night to tire himself out so he doesn't dream about chess; Kasimdzhanov drinks tea only during tournaments and plays tennis and basketball every day. Chirila does at least an hour of cardio and an hour of weights to build muscle mass before tournaments.

And apparently they're exercising quite a lot as well.

This hardly seems to support that it's just brain power. And my recollection is that focus does not significantly increase glucose uptake in the brain - though stress can obviously increase heart rate, but that's separate, one can focus without being stressed.
I would think large swings like that are water weight. They're probably really focused and not drinking or eating as much as usual
Why shouldn't I? The actions of Israel speak much louder than words. If Israel on the whole cared the least bit about Palestinian lives they wouldn't have done a fraction of the things they've done in the last 60 years.
I hadn't seen that comparison, but Webflow is really cool! I had to make a company website using it a few years ago, because it needed to be maintained by people with no coding skill at all. I found it really awesome. Also, their Youtube tutorials were about the most impressive tutorials I've ever seen, so well produced and fun that I would recommend just watching them as entertainment.

That's the motivation behind small nuclear reactors (SMRs). Compared to the larger models, these are more "set it and forget it" type of systems, and with it comes the ability to build them much more rapidly than a traditional plant. Check out NuScale Power's VOYGR SMR, as they are pretty far along in the process.
Not the first physics Nobel Prize winner to deny climate change: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivar_Giaever

I guess some physicists already have a tendency to see themselves at the pinicle of science. When winning the prize I guess it really gets to their heads. So weird that they’d get so damn certain about the “truth” in a completely different field from what they’ve studied. As far as I can tell, without engaging much with scientists actually working in that field.
