When you train your mind to see the real world around you as lists of things that you can organize (and lists of lists, etc.—it's lists all the way down), more and more of your programming tasks become intuitive.

It even leads to understanding functional programming, mutability, referential passing, OOP.

You discover that many terrible programming analogies actually aren't terrible at all because you intuit their application better than with the analogy alone.

Why? Because CS is filled with practicable patterns that have real-world counterparts, and your brain synthesizes the complexities of the real world in myriad ways that just programming never could.
Some commands I learned along the way (on top of those already said)

C-x g - magit-status

C-c c - org-capture

C-x h - mark-whole-buffer

M-: - eval-expression

C-x C-u - upcase-region

C-x C-o - ace-window

(use-package ace-window
:bind ("C-x C-o" . ace-window))

Allows you to number your buffers and choose the one you want by pressing the number associated with it

In dired, C-0 w gives you the full path to the file under the cursor
I agree it's rather haphazard and incoherent, but given it's a library and the variety of material it contains I think the lack of coherency somewhat works.
I wish someone would figure out how to Frankenstein the controls for a 1984 era TV set onto a modern TV.

My parents are basically unable to use their TV without writing down lengthy instructions on how to switch from cable to Netflix to live local news using 2 controllers, and I still get tech support calls nearly every week owing to Wifi issues, someone accidentally activating an obscure accessibility setting, or other random issues.
Learning Agile from a 3 Year Old
Practicing Agile is hard. No matter how many practices you adopt, realizing the gains from Agile requires a shift in your thinking that's completely counterintuitive. I've been teaching Agile for the better part of a decade and it took being a stay at home dad with a struggling child to realize just how difficult Agile is.

The good news is, Agile works. Not just in the office, but in life and with a funny little boy named Ragnar. Here's what he taught me.
>>>how are your points related to Norway

23andMe risks public relations disaster as it blames customers for data breach
What an absolute farcical state of affairs here from 23andMe.
Contrary to stereotype, I don't think most adults are _intentionally_ passing the buck to the next generation so much as they are _incidentally_ passing the buck to the next generation. They don't know how to live without producing carbon & other waste, and there are practical expenses they need to answer for. (bills, family members, putting food on the table) Most adults don't have many skills beyond using the infrastructure which is laid out for them. (roads, cars, supermarkets, public schools, available careers, etc.)

And crucially, my point is that today's kids will simply not be in a better situation. They'll have the tools of society at their hands, and in general, not much more. I don't love child labor, but I genuinely have no practical way to know if my clothing was produced via child labor. (I buy 99% of my clothing used, so hopefully that's helping) I don't have any practical way to know if my plastic recycling isn't getting dumped in the ocean in Turkey. I'd like to use less carbon, but my wife isn't willing to live with the heat set any lower than 62 F. Etc. The impacts which I can make are pretty small. Populations are rising, and technology is not the panacea some people think. Technology can improve carbon output, but everyone needs to eat and live. This will always be deleterious to the environment, and the "victim" generation will eventually grow up to be the victimizers as they have to run governments and companies.

They'll be faced with compromises they can't avoid, no matter their politics.
I like to look at these types of calculators to make sure I am considering all the important parameters but I never use them to do the actual calculations. I have found too many that either don't consider all the parameters I want, aren't configurable enough, and some that are simply incorrectly implemented.

One example of this specific calculator is that it compares all vehicles in the same graph, and all vehicles use the same parameters. However, not every vehicle actually has the same parameters. For example, the resell value of different brands varies significantly. The maintenance cost of different brands varies significantly. I don't want to be too harsh on this because it does provide some value and seems to be implemented by a well meaning student. I just would never suggest someone use it to actual compare the cost of ownership of different vehicles.

EDIT: Another thing that's hard to model is road trips. During which time gas prices fluctuate and electricity prices shot up.
If you go to the link and press 'help' you'll see some docs for ngn/k

The relevant line is

I\ encode 24 60 60\3723 -> 1 2 3 2\13 -> 1 1 0 1

So (8#2)\x encodes x in binary, with 8 positions. And because k is an array language, you don't need to do any mapping, it's automatic.

,/+|x is concat(transpose(reverse(x))) (,/ literally being 'reduce with concat')
Not to my knowledge, which is why I used the word "suspected" since I think this falls on the "makes intuitive sense, but would not surprise me in the least if it turned out to be completely incorrect" category of hypotheses.

I consider "suspected" to be the least level of evidence while still taking something into consideration as a potential cause. A suspected murderer might not even have been arrested, let alone convicted.

We do know that sulphur emissions have a global cooling effect, and we do know that sulphur emissions recently were reduced, so it's a reasonable hypothesis from first principles.

I've been thinking about this same thing lately since I will soon fit those conditions as well and I think at least for me personally this year may be the best time to buy one.

While I agree the technology will be better and cheaper 5 years from now that will always be the case and it seems like we are past the point of exponential improvements in short periods of time. Current EVs meet or exceed my needs regarding range, reliability, and performance so I don't have a quantitative goalpost that needs to be reached anymore.

What is really pushing me over the line though is changes to the relevant financial incentives. The new income caps mean I still qualify for the $7,500 tax rebate because I took a bunch of time off work in 2023 but will no longer be eligible after this year. I can't see the technology improving so much in the next few years it outweighs that discount combined with not having to wait.
No, the old GPUs were already supported. The performance is still being improved now.
I would also believe that they could have done all of the Hubble servicing missions with a capsule-style vehicle. If they had involved loading it into the payload bay and bringing it back to Earth to service on the ground, sure. But they were all done onsite, and you can do spacewalks from a capsule, too. I admittedly don't know any of the details, but I'm guessing that there's not really anything about the Hubble servicing missions that's fundamentally more difficult to do without a space truck than assembling Mir and Tiangong were.
In a way that made it clear, he was not favoring them. He chose to flaunt that. It's definitely what you call a 'smoking gun'. Give me money, let me know you're doing it, then ... what?

What other plausible reason is there to not use a blind trust? It's an obvious conclusion, the most likely one, and the one everybody but those blind to his egregious violations will come to.
>I think drivers should be compulsory to open source 5 years after the hardware is no longer sold,

Why wait five years? The hardware stops being sold on date X, the software/firmware must be published the same day.

> In a lot of cases it might be better using older hardware as new features would be added by the community forever!

And here you have found why the OEM's will fight via hordes of lobbyists any attempt to legislate a required publishing of software/firmware for out of production hardware. Keeping the old hardware useful after the OEM end-of-life's it means the OEM sees a smaller number of future sales of their "new and improved V2.0" [1] hardware, equating directly to lower revenue and profit.

[1] where what is "new and improved" is often nothing more than eye candy to convince you to give up your 1.0 version and buy the 2.0 variety.
In general, median and mode are much harder than min/avg/max. You can't compute the former with constant memory in one pass (you can do approximate median, but not exact median).

(Here there is a restricted range for the temperature with only 199 possible values (-99.9 to 99.9 with 0.1 increment) so you could do it constant memory, need something like 4*199 bytes per unique place name))

For the sum overflow is not an issue if you use 64-bit integers. Parse everything to integers in tenths of degree and even if all 1 billion rows are 99.9 temperature for same place name (worst possible casE), you are very far from overflowing.
If your goal is to keep yourself healthy and fit, you can really focus on the quality of training rather than quantity. Choose something that has the highest benefit-density and you can bear with, and then just do that. Climbing and walking your dog can already keep you fit. Stick to them . Do other activities just for fun, no need to push yourself too hard. :-)

And you think climbing is easy? Maybe for beginners. But you will definitely need some other trainings to enable advanced climbing. This activity alone will keep you busy for very long.

A Soyuz with a booster - a Blok D - launched on Proton together would be much cheaper and likely much safer than a Shuttle launch. That would be enough to get to 540 km height orbit, bring two or three people there, bring spares, make an EVA (the orbital module of Soyuz was designed partially to be able to do EVAs), and come back. The Blok D would have a docking module so Soyuz would connect to it and use it to raise (and lower) the orbit as needed.
It's interesting how the phrasing in the headline leads to different readings of its meaning. I read it as "SpaceX launches [their] first phone service satellites" which is how I think the author meant it. The first sentence clarifies:

>SpaceX launched a rocket on Tuesday carrying the first set of Starlink satellites that can beam signals directly to smartphones from space.

I don't think this was intentionally deceptive. If the headline said "North Korea launches first rocket" it would be clear that it meant North Korea's first rocket, not the first rocket ever

I can see how this could be confusing though if you're not familiar with the existence of other satellite phones, and maybe a journalist should be held to high standards for clarity when writing headlines.

You can just buy powerups every 5 points you earn. The challenge is picking up the right combination of distance and speed. I don't know what power is for.
Unfortunately I find Pilot G2 to have loose tolerances between the refill tip and pen body. It's like 1.5-2 thousandths of an inch, compared to 0.5-1 thousandth for Uniball and Pentel bodies. It makes your writing a bit sloppier and more effortful.

I believe the Uni-ball One is a better pen body in every way. Tight tolerances. Well-built, hinged steel clip that provides superior fidgeting. Nicer clicker haptics too. I don't love the ink that comes in them, but they take Jetstream SXR-7 and SXR-5 refills. You can get both of these from JetPens.
My take is that whenever we can break down barriers to allow more creators to enter, it's ultimately better for the entire industry. As a platform we can work on curating and filtering for high quality game content from our users, but that's a problem of curation rather than artificially limiting creation for fear of people making low quality content. Most content quality like many things are power law distributed anyways.

What a dismal prospect that would be. Why bother going at all? Might as well plug ourselves into those bio-pods from the Matrix and be done with it.

You might, but if you have a big enough pool of these people, there's a good probability that one of those people will be desperate enough to pick up that call. It's the same numbers game that causes the same market power asymmetry across all of labor.
I've searched for months (project manager LFG)

Job seekers are facing a broken, emergent system.

The combination of fake listings, ghosting, and generic emails that provide no feedback seems almost designed to hold them back. There are a few tricks to learn, but without insider knowledge, they may remain undiscovered.

I spend over 20 hours a week searching, tailoring my resume, and submitting applications, only to receive minimal responses. This is demoralizing, not to mention the stress from diminished income.
I guess Julian Assange did with Wikileaks was the correct technology and process - and why the establishment has scared everyone away from replicating what he did by his most poor treatment.

I also finally got to try out UCSD Pascal for the Atari 400/800. It was an awful experience using multiple floppies and having too many phases or whatever to edit, compile, run a program. That cured me of any programming language FOMO for decades. There was a cool Action![0] language cartridge for the Atari 8-bit which was awesome, it was lower level than C and felt like writing high-level assembly.

Using MS C (version 3 and onward) on PC and Megamax C on Atari ST were great though. I didn't run into C++ until the 90s on Windows, NT and OS/2.

This kind of goes to the idea that a paper could be queried via LLM, asking about quality criteria¹, experimental methods, and grammar.

The other idea is spent time is irreversible, so the investment into context and content is a proof of work: here is a thing I did; I would not have spent it in any less important way. Speeches in symbolic places, for example, or opinion pieces, essays, and the like.

Do we then lose something with "modular writing," inserting links or reused phrases? Certainly not in mathematical proofs or code.

We want to elevate the author's voice or authorship, though. Or, do we drain all argument of rhetoric, and present scribbled bones?

Then the voice--and style, personality, and tone--proceeds from learned mores, which become the more familiar by practice in the ways expressed.

Then it is important to learn the language, and to learn it well.

> The overwhelming majority of Gazans are too young to ever have voted.

That is true, but the majority of Gazans polled support the actions of Oct 7, and back in 2021 most supported Hamas in another polls.

I do appreciate these polls may be answered under duress though and from what I see on video, there are definitely some people inside Gaza that are tired of living under Hamas. We just don't know how many.

> you're doing your side no favors here by pretending that Israel can cut Gaza off at its own discretion. It cannot.

I don't have a side asides from that of truth. I don't understand what the basis for this argument is - why can't Israel stop supplying utilities to Gaza? Israel probably will post-Hamas, since the UAE or whoever else would like them to do so, but ultimately it's at Israel's discretion.
At least Perl "uses" `use` for more things than just strict mode.

As a beginner, I remember finding this magical literal that (might) alter JS behavior pretty strange, especially since there were no other `use` directives.

I really like Perl's `use diagnostics` directive, which provides more verbose error messages, and am frankly surprised a far more popular language that is supposed to be beginner-friendly does not have something similar.
Pretty sure the high temp, has less to do with the carbon dioxide, and more to do with the fact that the planet rotates so slowly. It takes 243 earth days for one day on Venus.
> You have trouble understanding how someone could hate an optional feature and -because of that hate- turn that optional feature off and keep it off forever?

No, I have trouble understanding why someone might hate an optional feature that's either turned off by default, or that they can turn off with little effort then keep it off forever.

The lack of the feature in the first place is more of a problem. With empathy towards people who might like the feature, you see the presence of the feature as a good thing, even if it's no use (or even an inconvenience) to you. If it's an inconvenience, what you hate is the default setting.

Example: screen readers. I've been sometimes surprised by having Windows start reading text aloud after pressing a shortcut, but I then thought "actually, that's nice because people who can't use a screen have this great feature working out of the box"

E.g. Apparently you can return OIDC claims in two ways, nested or flat, but most clients do understand that, so if your server don't know how to do flat and your client only does flat, then you have a problem.

> The Sunbeam T-20 reportedly retailed for over $22.50 brand new back in 1949. That’s $260 in today’s money

When people talk about appliances today being built with deliberate "planned obsolescence" (ie, designed to fail within 2 years so you have to buy another one), I like to point the above out.

I don't think modern cheap design is a deliberately malicious move being done to make more money. I think it's a consequence of consumers being short-sighted and VERY price-sensitive. Most consumers, when they go to Walmart to buy, say, a blender, might see the $19 Mainstays (Walmart's own brand), $30 Hamilton Beach, and $100 Ninja, and will opt for the Mainstays that will die in a year of moderate use, rather than the HB that will last 3-5 years.

But back to my original point, because of price sensitivity of consumers, capitalist competition creates a race to the bottom on prices, and quality suffers as a result. I don't think it's part of a sinister plan to make you buy a new one every year. And for the people that are willing to pay for the higher quality, good brands still exist. For your blender, that's probably going to be Vitamix or Blendtec.
The real question is, what's the best pencil?
