The purpose of the stock market is that a company can issue its own currency, and then print more of that currency whenever it needs to raise money, which automatically absorbs value from all outstanding investors (i.e. shareholders).
Allocators have an inherently broken design, tying them to types. See this CppCon talk by the (engaging and funny) Andrei Alexandrescu:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIb3L4vKZ7U

std::allocator is to allocation what std::vector is to vexation (or: designing allocators that don't not-work)
Yeah, I think a degree of complexity is required to achieve being the fastest compiled language.

To achieve that, you need stuff like monomorphized templates, actual arrays and slices being distinguished from pointers, well-defined rules on pointers (like Rust's rules about references and mutable references, or strict aliasing in C++), and the freedom to let the compiler reorder structure fields for better alignment and space usage. Runtime polymorphism, like virtual functions in C++, are better as a core language feature rather than something implemented as a struct of function pointers, because that way the compiler can devirtualize some calls.

All of these things, I think most C programmers would be against adding to C. And pointer rules are historically controversial; for example, Dennis Ritchie was against adding noalias to C in 1988[1].

It would be the end of society. Society requires a common understanding of reality, and the things you're talking about are deliberately destroying a common understanding of reality.
I too had a journey with journaling already, but the very specific and clear parameters of the morning pages really made it click. I still actually journal on my laptop, but the purpose of journaling has become clearer. The morning pages are not intended to be read, but the journal is.

> Likely there are other ingredients. Some sort of catalyst may be needed for the process to get into gear.

Are you talking about the process outlined by the whole book and her philosophy, or something else? If so I think it's just life. If I had picked up this book 10 years ago I would not have been able to read past all the allusions to god. I still reject that concept, but I'm a lot more spiritual and I'm able to translate into my own beliefs or look past it when it gets a bit too heavy.

I think it's hard to start from absolute 0 and pick up this book and follow through. I was already on the path of nurturing my inner artists and general self discovery and this book reached me through a dear friend and it was exactly what I wanted.

What week are you on? I had an interesting 4th week because I'm a heavy reader, and I decided to cut off social media too.

> Isn’t that the bad part about this story? That someone with your laptop can reset it if you’ve not used ‘find my’?

In the default state the Mac works the way people say they want it to work. It is not enrolled in Find My and Apple has no idea who owns the machine. You could have walked into a retail store and bought it with cash. Or bought it used on Craigslist.

In that blank state the machine is wide open, including wide open to be enrolled in Find My with Activation Lock. That's exactly how it is supposed to work. The only way it could be otherwise is if the server did what people are falsely claiming it does: maintain a big database that indicates who is the registered owner of each machine thereby preventing someone from maliciously enrolling a non-enrolled machine. (And FYI a non-enrolled machine is not constantly checking in with the server... that only happens during restore.)

This is just another kind of CAP-like theorem situation. No one can provide anti-theft locking capability without making a tradeoff. Any sort of anti-theft feature must choose one of these strategies:

1. Trivial bypass via firmware wipe, making the feature useless.
2. Require a central database tracking ownership (think car titles), which is the dystopian world people hate
3. Physical possession of a stolen and non-enrolled machine allows the thief to enroll the machine (this case). Looks identical to a non-enrolling person selling to an enrolling buyer.

Overriding the anti-theft system must be a high bar otherwise social engineering or malicious employee attacks become a significant weakness. Even if you provide proof-of-purchase there is no way to know if you sold the machine to someone else then stole it back from them in which case breaking the activation lock is helping a scammer.

Providing opt-out is either #1 or #2 above. If you don't register that opt-out in a central database then it would likely be easy to bypass with a firmware wipe which leads back to square one.

Just about the only alternative I can think of is a fusible link system where the first person to setup the machine can choose "Do not allow anti-theft" and that blows a fuse. That sure will piss off buyers of used machines when they find out the first owner made a permanent choice on their behalf.

> Most of the time staying at a hotel is much more comfortable than staying at an airbnb.

Sometimes! If I'm staying in a place for more than just a few days, I want a full kitchen. That's pretty rare to find in a hotel. Even small efficiency kitchens are pretty rare. And in most markets I can rent an Airbnb with a full kitchen for much cheaper than a hotel room with any kind of kitchen.

Beyond that, I generally prefer the Airbnb experience over that of a hotel. I know I don't speak for everyone there, but I think there are quite a few people with my preferences.
I understand your mention of open source ethos, but open source projects can also have commercial aspects. It is primarily about transparency, collaboration, and free distribution of software. There are many successful open source initiatives that incorporate commercial strategies to support their ongoing development, professional support services, and operational costs.

Basically just myself Googling around. I have a pretty solid idea of where I want to go, but I'm pretty far from the target so it's kinda like a wishlist than a real plan. With the current market I'd be lucky to keep my job (or find one quickly once dumped) so that's just in the back of my mind.

I also have to confess that my target(s) might be phony. They look pretty cool but demand a huge amount of technical skills that I simply do not have the time to learn -- and not much employment chance even if I learn the basics. Back in my 20s I thought people can pick up skills at any age, which is true btw, but regarding the individual "me", my time and cognitive ability deteriorates so much that most of my free time is being used to chill out the frustration.

- "their pilots aren’t prepared to do the approaches everyone else is doing"

Is this is a fair framing? My read of it is that Lufthansa's enforcing a minimal standard of safety—one that's higher than both other airliners' and the ATC's. They're not incapable of doing visual landings at night; rather, they have a policy banning it in non-emergency situations. It (naively) seems reasonable to me not to budge on this kind of thing. (Unless the inflexibility creates new forms of safety issues, in which case I have no idea).

Also, I'm mindful there was a recent near-disaster at SFO with exactly the issue this Lufthansa policy mitigates: a non-ILS landing attempt at night, which attempted the wrong runway due to confusion over visual markers,

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18071966 ("Abstract of the NTSB Report on Air Canada flight 759's taxiway overflight at SFO", 127 comments)
This is not a special Lufthansa thing. The majority of airlines from Europe limit visual approaches to daylight.

It does not apply to their home base, which is Frankfurt and Munich. The pilots are familiar with these airports, traffic patterns and so on.

Lufthansa tries to schedule outbound flights so that they arrive at daytime - if possible.

I don’t know why the controller was handling the situation that way. Taking flight duration and delay into account that was uncomfortable for the crew and passengers. And a waste of fuel. Mind the necessary repositioning of the plane, they had to move it to SFO later anyway.

I think it is tough when people discuss your work in public. And I’m not involved and lack knowledge! I hope the involved people learn and improve. We are all humans and make mistakes and/or misbehave. I have a lot to improve.

I'd argue having useable LLMs kind of brings out how problematic TDD is.

Imagine the dumbest function you have to write: a product A and a street address as input, and the shipping cost as an output.

How many test cases would you write to be absolutely sure that function actually does what you want it to do, and be confident it doesn't have weird exceptions that the LLM injected randomly ? I'd assume you'd still vet the code written by the LLM, but if it's hundreds of rambling lines doing weird stuff to get the right result, is it really faster than writing it yourself ?

The GPU has also the fixed function video encode like integrated CPUs. Both VAAPI and Vulkan Video address the same hardware. Differences are in the API itself (with Vulkan being more explicit) and potentially in which vendors (or OSS driver developers) support which API in what degree.

I'm an audience member. Write to your audience remains good advice.
I don't think "this belief has negative consequences" is a good argument; we can only reach the truth by sincerely looking for it.

To my mind the very concept of free will is nonsense; as soon as you make a sincere effort to pin it down it breaks down. Yes, there is no absolute proof that it's impossible, but like the second law of thermodynamics, I would be much more surprised to see it violated than, IDK, finding a real magnetic monopole.
I've wondered why Amendment 14.3 doesn't explicitly list the "President", what it does say is "or hold any office, civil or military"

I have smart outlets for my christmas lights so they turn on at sunset, and that's about as far I want go.

spreading out the costs to the aggregate state reduces the financial risk and allows for enabling the productivity of more members of society

a single organization takes on a large risk, merely hoping that other organizations do the same

so in the US, some organizations do it to be competitive but they are very few and far between, and are nowhere near offering to parents what developed nations do when spread across the state

people don’t start trying to do revenue producing things - like running a company - for those reasons. It has to be substantially greater financial reward than not starting the company or continuing it. I think this is often lost by people that want companies/employers to do other things with and for employees simply because of their prevalence. for companies that need employees, there are ways to make this easier for employees and less of a discretionary financial burden for employers
For the last ~7 years or so for me, the Internet has been specialty, curated online communities like Hacker News, Pinkbike, 68kMLA, /r/DestinyTheGame, and AudioScienceReview. It’s been absolutely great. It’s the real intersection of my real life & interests with a broader group of people than my local environment would otherwise enable.

I don’t participate in much social media. Facebook’s entire purpose to me is classified ads for furniture and bike parts. Instagram exists purely as an augmentation to Pinterest. Both of which exist simply to keep me and my partner from arguing endlessly about entirely imaginary design & decorating details. I don’t get the appeal of TikTok, and Twitter is mostly a place to make #dadjokes that I don’t want to subject my actual family to.

There was no positive value in being too online and participating in platforms and venues of the be all things to everybody variety.

I'm not sure I'd call the design "bad". At the very least it's a product of the design constraints, and I'm not sure there's an obviously better implementation without sacrificing something else. I think separate compilation and monomorphization are the biggest contributors, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was something I was forgetting.

Somewhat related, there was some work in Rust about sharing monomorphized generics across crates, but it appears it was not a universal win at the time[0]. I'm not sure if anything has changed since that point, unfortunately, or if something similar could be applied to C++ somehow.

Feels more like angst at price gouging and other factors. We've got a 1.8B (or 1.6? Forget…) judgement against home realtors in one state. We've got legal action against rental firms colluding on price fixing in other jurisdictions. And reported market confidence levels no longer follow traditional factors like they did in the past (ie income, etc). I also wouldn’t discount previously unaccounted for variables like political unrest and unease (or perceived political instability and norm breakdowns). Exogenous factors can breakdown previously held associations. They mention continued fall out from covid here. Which, btw, I think we still have not seen a market correction towards worker wages and conditions on the order seen after the 1918 pandemic. Localities attempting to overturn child labor laws and legalize child labor could be playing an unexpected (exogenous) factor.

Put another way, if people are suddenly worried about things they've never had to worry about in the past, like losing freedoms they previously had, they might not be capable of reporting the previous levels of consumer confidence all other things held the same except the loss of freedoms.

Dual problem to suddenly at work theres a poltergeist who you 100% interact with daily and which scares you but otherwise doesn’t affect your income prospects, housing costs, transportation, food, etc. Or change poltergeist for a work bully.

Twitter can ban and throttle whoever it wants, they own the platform.

What's __silly__ about the NYTimes being throttled on Twitter is how Musk champions his platform as a bastion of "free speech", while silencing those he disagrees with (NYTimes) or can't be bothered to defend (enemies of authoritarian governments).

What __concerning__ is how many people claim to believe that Musk is actually a free-speech champion. Are they just trolling the rest of us, or do they actually believe it? Either one is worrisome.
