Not at all? How much "preparing for the real world" was there in Hanna Barbera cartoons, or GI Joe, Thundercats, Looney Toons, etc?

One could argue that cartoons of an era are descriptive of current culture, but to take them as prescriptive seems a terribly misguided idea.

If you want to believe that humans are just misled in a way that is fine, but you might find that some of your ideas about the status quo turn out to be wrong or at least that the status quo has few thousand years in it you need to overcome.
You’re not familiar with this text or gnosticism.

GPT-4: “In Gnostic texts, particularly those found in the Nag Hammadi library, Thomas is often referred to as "Didymos Judas Thomas." The name "Didymos" is Greek for "twin," and "Thomas" is Aramaic for "twin." In the Gospel of Thomas, one of the Gnostic gospels, Thomas is depicted as having a special understanding or connection to Jesus, but the text does not explicitly state that Thomas is Jesus's twin in a biological sense.

Instead, the "twin" designation may be symbolic, representing a spiritual kinship or a metaphorical relationship rather than a literal familial one. Gnostic texts are known for their symbolic and allegorical language, and the exact nature of Thomas's relationship to Jesus is subject to interpretation. It's also worth noting that Gnostic beliefs were diverse, and different texts might portray the relationship differently.“

Plenty of still-popular ancient books are full of fiction, myth, and superstition. Perhaps one could say some have remained more useful.
>That said, there are more great books than I could read in 100 life times published before 2020, so I doubt this will be an issue for me personally in practice.

I'm personally split on this viewpoint. Through a series of events this year (starting with the death of Charlie Munger), I've started reading the Harvard Classics. Doing the 15 minutes a day challenge, which started on New Year's Day. I bought the full original 1910 set on Ebay. They're pretty cheap because they're essentially just room decorum and probably nobody reads them. People on Ebay will gladly sell cool looking leather cover books because it makes their offices look nice. This is an actual descriptions many sellers use.

For me though, above all else it's been an incredibly humbling experience. Because its been a very long time since I've read works from genuine professionals who spent a lifetime mastering their craft. I'm struggling with prose and vocabulary. I'm not an avid reader. I will at most read maybe 5-10 books a month. Some of which are technical or industry related. But I still like hardcopies so I tend to visit bookstores. And the crushing reality is that what's generally available on bookshelves (at least in the USA) is fucking garbage. Half-assed ghostwritten autobiographies of no-name celebrities or politicians, lifestyle in-your-face FEMALE EMPOWERMENT books that give questionable advice, pseudo-historical nonfiction books, bland and uninspired Star Wars science fiction rip offs (and their accompanying video game expanded universe novels). The list goes on.

Barnes and Noble realized that their audience doesn't really buy physical books anymore (or just plainly don't fucking read) so have moved in to fill the gap that Toys R' Us left behind. Half the floor space is a glorified toy store. Most of the people that come here either bring their kids or are kids themselves hanging out in the Manga section.

The cliche is obviously here and repeating itself: but with each consecutive generation we become less literate. AI has made it so the illiterate get nifty summaries of other less literate summaries of great works and ideas, which then get challenged by the pseudo-intellectual hack frauds extracting wealth from their fanbase and college students pumping out bullshit papers to meet graduation requirements. Just how fucking low exactly can we limbo before it's too late? In this context AI is basically Accelerationism

I can't make heads or tails of either of those answers, and they seem to contradict each other. The output capturing is all to the same file descriptors, this is the way resources are inherited on fork (and there's no redirection here). That it works with unbuffer is weird because the subshell and subprocess both end up flushing their output when they exit, so there should be no need to flush before exiting.

If the first answer is correct, then the unbuffer works because the process introspection as the source of the output is unified to be the unbuffer process. But why bother introspecting the exact process that originated a write to the output? Did we have a problem with file descriptors being highjacked? And even if we did, losing the output (or not associating it with the parent process) is worse.
Supposedly the flaw exists on a section where a “false door” exists for future alterations to the exit points. Perhaps not all of their planes were built with this feature. Nothing to inspect in that case.

> Most kids are self-centered, duplicitous sacks of bullshit.

Most children aren't. You're definitely telling on yourself more than commenting on how children behave. Trust is a shared activity. If you treat children like you'd treat the GRU that's exactly how they'll behave.

> and I have a good relationship with these two.

If you have a good relationship, why are they lying to you? Is it because they don't trust you? Is that because you don't trust them? I wonder who started it. I'm pretty sure you'll blame them again, so I'll pre-answer for that. "they proved it already by making [some mistake]" ...yeah, kids will make mistakes, but when you forgive them, and believe in them, and prove that they can trust you, they will. By treating them like the GRU all you do is prove they can't trust you. You're supposed to be the adult, right? You have to go first, children are only able to copy what they see.

> Preliminary information about the accident remains scarce, though two people familiar with the aircraft tell The Air Current that the aircraft in question, N704AL, had presented spurious indications of pressurization issues during two instances on January 4.

The light appeared again later the same day in flight, the people said.

> Why would you delay adoption of a technical superior solution if there is no interested/lack of resources in continuing maintenance of the inferior solution?

But a technically superior solution was not on the table to become the default, the suggestion was to use systemd and effectively prevent the use of anything else (including potentially technically superior solutions).

Then I suggest not making this claim unless you solve the problem. Security patches are notoriously difficult to implement and test, one needs to recreate the attacking environment.

My hope is to contribute to the FOSS ecosystem as a developer

This is too vague to be worthwhile as a course of action.

write a utility for managing multiple ttys with simultaneously different DEs and WMs on a linux system

This is a concrete goal.

I currently am hoping to learn c and to use it to

This is an excuse for not executing on the concrete goal.

Start writing the tool in Javascript, C#, Python, Racket whatever is easiest to execute in...and they are each and all hard because programming is hard.

Because starting to write code is how you learn to write code.

And the simplest way to contribute to a FOSS project is to write some code yourself and make it FOSS.

Good luck.

> the things that make it good for small projects can scale up very, very well

Sorry, but that makes zero sense.

Dynamic typing is a language design choice where one is trading off automated error detection for faster development. The larger and more complex a project becomes, the more moving parts and interfaces (APIs) it has, and the more potential there is for API errors. Choosing NOT to prioritize automated (compile time) error detection is NOT something that scales up "very, very well".

It's not just about size of project, but also about expected project lifetime. For a one-time use script, or experiment, or thesis project, then maybe development time is the prime concern. You're going to hack it to get it working ASAP, and don't care what happens later (there is no later).

However, for a corporate project that will be in production use for years, then initial coding effort is only a small part of the lifetime project costs, and optimizing this at the expense of ease of maintenance is a poor decision. Years down the road the project will have had staff turnover, developers will have forgotten the details of all the code, the original design has probably been compromised due to feature creep, too many hands, etc, etc. At this stage you want all the help you can get so that people can still maintain the code, and the larger and more complex the project, the more so this will be. Again, the small/throwaway project language choice trade off of optimize development time at the cost of ease of bug detection will NOT scale up "very, very well".

If you anticipate sloppy undisciplined programmers working on a project, then all the more reason to give them less weapons with which to shoot themselves in the foot.

I would start with Python (or maybe Java) and then graduate to C. And, if you ever mess with C++, don't let it fool you that it's an easy/beginner language; it's actually the hardest and deepest language of them all, masquerading as a shallow pond. ;p

The $80B is new, and until recently they were understaffed and underfunded.

It's like a poor person finally getting Section 8 housing, and then you turn around and accuse them of being wasteful and inefficient with their spending, because they have a house so they clearly aren't as poor as they say.

Also the $80B and 87k agents is slightly overstating what they are actually going to get. See e.g. https://www.forbes.com/sites/insider/2022/10/20/the-reality-....

Is it possible that the IRS lacks the engineering management expertise to build an effective in-house software team? Sure.

Is it possible that they won't spend their money efficiently as a result? Sure.

Is it possible that they'll hire B-grade programmers, because the top people won't want to move to some random suburb in MD to work for $120k/year? Sure.

But to somehow accuse the IRS of having "massive" funding and imply that they are in fact well-supported is just disregarding the facts of recent history.
> There's probably a Someoneorother's Law or Something Fallacy about this

I once got your for a couple of hours researching the origin of that famous phrase "you can't improve what you don't measure", so I could blame it correctly.

The idea is quite old, of course, and popular to the 19th century rationalists. But the format people keep teaching around today seems to be a strawman created by Deming, at the 80's, in a speech about how stupid that idea is.

Anyway, I guess we need some Othersomeoneorother's Law about how you just can't make a good point against an idea without someone taking your point, preaching it unironically, and making a movement in support of the idea.
I see no reason why that can't be modeled as an automata? Nondeterministic automata are still automata. I think your meanings of 'deterministic' are confused- it's about impulse response. A little bit of stochasticity in the thermal voltage doesn't ruin the determinacy of a computers ALU operational modes.

That also restricts the stack to only 256 bytes, or 128 16-bit words.

For what it's worth, there are several municipalities that have different and conflicting rules about signalling in or with roundabouts than the provincial rules. So there is legitimate confusion about which rules to follow.

At least, in Ontario. The provincial police will give you a different answer from municipal police, and I've gotten a different answer still from MoT folks.

In practice, another issue I have seen is that some folks see any use of a signal near a roundabout as an indication that you are trying to "change lanes", which leads to a honk fest and more confusion immediately. So doing the "right thing" approaching or exiting a roundabout can lead to more confusion and dangerous situations than just... not signaling, unfortunately.
An extra gimmick is that it is often better to inline foo into its caller than foo0 into foo.

For example, in the following that saves a function call cost on every nil call.

}
}

The IRS hasn't come after the rich for a decade+ because audit groups targeting higher-wealth filers have been systemically dismantled.

It'd be nice to see (a) additional enforcement resources applied to low-wealth filers (where ROI on salary is reliable and positive) and use the proceeds to (b) fund additional enforcement resources on high-wealth filers.

Deterministic systems, or at least highly predictable ones, can arise for non-deterministic components, as for example the Boltzmann equation demonstrates. Other examples include the models that we build of automata on machines made of matter made of non-deterministic particles.

An easy way to determine this would be to look at previous, e.g. Harvard presidents, and evaluate whether their work was equally shoddy or of scant quantity.
