That's because the degree helps us get more money in a direct and easily understandable way.

A tool that saves an hour doesn't save us an hour, it saves our employer an hour. We don't get to home home an hour early when we save our employer an hour.

You're looking at an entirely rational chain of logic.
I don't know, but you might want to reach out to http://www.mylandmatters.org/ - that's where I go to get a lot of land use data, so they might be able to point you in the right direction.
There are a lot of brands but only a few actual manufacturers for large appliances, so yeah, they don't typically vary a whole lot in terms of what's inside them. high-end, expensive kit isn't necessarily much better. A Sub-Zero, for instance, can be a maintenance nightmare.

We just replaced a 30-year-old GE with a Whirlpool, so far so good, but we don't expect another 30 years out of it.
I guess they aren't with the times...
well then modularize your code better!

git can handle large repositories there's no reason you should have a one terabyte repository unless youre Google or something with the money to write your own VCS.

but if you want to pay for a nine developer team with a massive cloud infrastructure for something like version control.... go for it!!!

I'm going to check back a year from now and see if products still exists
Ah yes, I love this argument!

So CEO's are supposed to be magical super-rare humans who do nothing but are worth 1000s of regular workers and take all credit for good returns...

Until things go bad and then it's all the worker's fault! The ship was too big to steer!

If CEOs are worth as much as they think they are then they should have no problems taking all of their comp in stock, and bonuses (if any!) should be handcuffed to hard goals.
Why doesn't it work to have the emitter and sensor together at the same location, synchronize them at that moment, and then move them apart a distance so large the initial delay no longer matters, before running the test? Do we not have accurate enough clock sources to keep the synchronization?
Go has panics. You can unwind them, and recover from them. Using these for control flow is heavily discouraged and therefore it's rarely ever an issue, but they are a type of exception handling, or at least very close to that.

Unless you ditch optimizations completely, it is hard to know without looking at the generated asm. Of course you can make educated guesses.

... So, v1 to v12.x where x is unknown: beta, v12.y where y>x: not beta.

That is a _spectacularly_ weird version scheme, but of course has the benefit that there is no rush; provided they always stick with 12.something, it is always true.
I can think of three former colleagues that have had very successful careers and that are also gifted liars (one stands out as also being a pathological liar.) None of them are ever going to be reported in the media.

I don't think the point is about abstractions... it's how much you can understand about how the code executes by reading it.

Abstractions are fine, of course. In Zig, though, they should be explicit and clear. E.g., the only way to call a function is by name, using the function-calling syntax. Control flow depends only on keywords and syntax directly in front of you.

I think they do assume you known the language -- if you don't then I guess a lot might be unclear when reading code! -- but on the other hand, it's on the simpler, smaller side.
This is why I will never stop trying to insert throws declarations into code I write. For some reason, Java developers seem to like hiding the fact their function can throw exceptions.

The syntax problem gets mentioned a lot ("we'll just end up catching and rethrowing it anyway") but at that point you can just add throws to the calling method.

Author of the book under review here. AMA!

One thing I thought would be helpful is to link to the YouTube video described in the opening paragraph: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMF-cyHAaSs

It's from a 1957 CBS documentary series called "Focus on Sanity" that featured interviews with Aldous Huxley and Gerald Heard, among others. I found it fascinating and my questions about it were actually one of the motive forces for why I wrote the book.

I believe the recording was first brought to public attention by Don Lattin, whose books The Harvard Psychedelic Club (2010) and Distilled Spirits (2012) are both great.
Error correction is a fascinating topic. Shannon discovered in the mid-20th century what the theoretical limit was, yet nobody knew how to achieve it. When we suddenly got close in the 1990s with the patent of turbocodes the community reacted with disbelief!

Of course, that's what's enabled things like fast and reliable mobile networks.

> Why is that? Won’t it be more ergonomic than needing to call, say `.add`, when you want to do something clearly similar to addition. It’s just sugar, no?

Especially since, in a typed language, this function would be desugared at compile time and (probably) aggressively inlined, making it hardly different from the compiler builtins for adding floats and ints. Unless, of course, you're doing something like allocating to concatenate strings.

Really, though, it's more of a developer common-sense issue than a language one.
Awesome, I was fishing for open source links, I salute you thanks for sharing :)
> Also, without being an engineer or technician, it did always seem to me that fridges were like cars in that you had "luxury" models that were standard frames with fancy (often less-than-useful) features, and then actual luxury with brand names most people had never heard of, which had normal features implemented to a high standard and with excellent support.

As a consumer, would there be a way to tell the difference between the two when buying?
The rich are rich because, to them, life is a business transaction. I visit my friends because I really enjoy their company and just want to watch TV and hang out. To the rich, they visit their friends out of duty to maintain a relationship for the possibility of a business connection or recommendation in the future.

They don't think about those below them on the socioeconomic scale because why dedicate any brainpower to someone who cannot provide you with connections, or money, or loans.

Even within their own businesses, they don't view employees are people. They use the term "human capital". We're a business expense. A liability. Not Sally from Human Resources.

I'm part of a program right now developed by a psychotherapist. He has created dozens of hours of audio content meant to be consumed in a group setting over the course of a year. For every cohort, he screens people and puts the groups together (multiple groups run alongside each other using the same content for each cohort), and then every week the groups each meet and talk about the week's recordings. He also shares documents and links to other resources each week.

Currently, this is all being done by posting a links to all the audio sessions in a forum every week. It's clunky. It looks unprofessional, even though he's world-class at creating the content of the sessions.

I want to help him modernize it, but thinks like Moodle and Canvas are SO overkill for this need.

I'm looking for something lighter weight, self-hostable, and free. I'll do the work of setting it up and converting his existing materials, but I'm having trouble finding anything like this, even though this doesn't seem like that unusual of an approach.

What have you seen that works well?
> A well-written phishing email will catch the most seasoned security professional.

I disagree, this "most seasoned security professional" won't reply to that e-mail if "nobody will ever ask for your credentials on any channel" is part of the hygiene. No matter how well written it is, even if the CEO got his actual legit e-mail hijacked it should not work. Follow proper procedures or fuck off is the only valid answer.
"The issue is the headline. It posits a question, then jerks you around until you've spent long enough on the page to satisfy some engagement metric."

But there was and is just no definite answer, except for drama. I found every bit interesting and relevant to be able to picture the situation.

"The title "The First Man to Refuse to Return from Space" would be more appropriate for an investigative article. "

And no, because it was way more severe than this: he said he won't come home and he said figurativly "oh, I can just open this airlock and then we all would die?" (where "unless you give in to my demands" was maybe intentionally implied - maybe not, he was not mentally stable)

So an actual clickbaity sounding headline, that would have actually be quite close to the truth, would be:

"First man in space, who threatened to kill everyone on board"

But Ars did not do this. Partly because they are not (so much) into the clickbait game, but partly because the facts are (intentionally by NASA) not that clear here. And the Author tried to gather as much facts as he could. So giving us, where he was born and went to school was no real answer to the title question - but it helped me getting a picture of the person in question, which is still alive, but who refused to comment. Because people have reasons for why they act like they do:

"When I turned on my own instrument, it didn't work," Wang said. "You can imagine my panic. I had spent five years preparing for this one experiment. Not only that, I was the first person of Chinese descent to fly on the Shuttle, and the Chinese community had taken a great deal of interest. You have to understand the Asian culture. You don't just represent yourself; you represent your family. The first thing you learn as a kid is to bring no shame to the family. So when I realized that my experiment had failed, I could imagine my father telling me, 'What's the matter with you? Can't you even do an experiment right?' I was really in a very desperate situation"
This problem can be extended to systems like project management, where your workers are not computers but people.

For instance: Suppose you have a team of six people, and you're being asked to tackle two projects for two clients, each of equal value to the business. One project will take two weeks to complete; another will take four months to complete.

How do you determine a "fair" way to divide up those projects? Do you do one before the other? Do you divide up your team's capacity equally and do them in parallel?

This is the same sort of queuing problem described in the post. So a solution to the computer queuing problem might have interesting implications for the broader problem.
David Graeber died too soon. We'll miss him. He would have so much to say about our current predicament.
Anti-cheat serves a useful purpose for customers. Cheating is a real problem that can destroy online games and ruin fun for a game's customers. While anti-cheat can introduce its own problems, it does have real benefits for users.

DRM has no benefit for legitimate users, it can only harm them.

Moving the emitters affects the pace of time for them.
This is definitely one of those things where you don't need a paper to "suggest" it. It's just on the table as a semi-plausible option already. The value in the paper is suggesting concrete mechanisms by which it might acquire that understanding though.
Well this is part of the reason for this topic.

NFPA Link has terms of service that are due to the "model code" being proprietary. Accessing the content via that NFPA Link endpoint puts you at the mercy of the terms of whatever the private third party offers.

But as the law stated, once the code is adopted, it becomes public domain. I would guess that NFPA has no legal obligation to offer a "public domain" portal, so the question becomes at what cost should local governments buy server space and host the texts and make the code available to the public domain? Especially because it appears they are legally obligated to do so? My research shows they currently don't offer it.

I find this kind of like "right to repair" except to "right to access public domain code text." In this case, the right exists, but no endpoint exists, so if there's no endpoint, does the right really exist?
I'm using DisplayLink with a Dell hub, based on the recommendations on the site you link. It's working great for me, but I don't use NightShift. It does have flux integration, apparently, but I don't use that either.

Not what you're looking for, but my two cents anyway.
>>Unless you're trying to say standardized tests are racist?

Quite the opposite. While the tests were criticized as racist, further sutdy is showing that the results correlate most strongly with educational opportunity, and basically document the broader disparities.

>>Disparity in opportunity, right? Asians just don't have access to enough basketball courts. But yeah, I'm the ignorant one.

Yes, you are.

You entirely ignore the role of culture and disparate opportunity in athletic results. For starters, in some minority cultures, sports is a primary route AVAILABLE for success, so both more athletes go into those routes, and more stay in. A couple of examples.

I knew a serious football player, played for 'bama, won the Rose Bowl, was recruited by multiple top pro teams. Declined it all and went into software sales (which is where I met him, recruiting my company to be a VAR), because he wanted to have knees that worked after he was 40. He was white and had the opportunity to do something else.

Or, take the speed events of alpine ski racing, Downhill and Super-G (something I know a bit about from having been internationally ranked and on my national ski team and the pro tour decades ago). For decades, the Austrians dominate. At various times, a Swiss, Norwegian, German, French, Italian, or American will be on top, but there are always Austrians in the top 10 and usually dominating at the top of the podium. Yet Austria is only a country of 8+ million people, not much larger than Massachusetts. And there are serious skiing mountains and training programs in dozens of larger countries, and far larger potential talent pools.

I can also tell you that Downhill racing is one of the absolutely most intensly demanding sports - over 2 minutes of peak demands on strength, aerobic capacity, and skilled fine-tuned control required to merely make it to the finish line, let alone win.

You clearly suggest that it is genetics that determine sporting outcome and anyone claiming opportunity or other factors is ignorant.

So, what is it about the Austrians' gene pool that gives them such perennial prowess in Downhill ski racing? Is their genetic makeup somehow that different from the next-door Swiss or Germans? Obviously not. What IS different is their culture where they have great training programs and a huge portion of their talent pool goes into ski racing — Austrian kids want to win at Kitzbühel or Wengen the way American kids aspire to win a Super Bowl or World Series —and that's differentially where much of our talent pool goes.

As for Asian basketball players, obviously they CAN be great [0], but anecdotally, their culture values things other than basketball, so we see lots more of them at the top of math competitions than we see Austrians.

So, while I could go on at far greater length, the answer is clearly that YES you are the ignorant one on those sorts of topics, and should stop spreading your ignorance.

The official MH Twitter page did recently shout out MHW as being playable on Steam Deck. Not sure if they did it for Rise but I wouldn't be surprised.

They also do acknowledge it being broken and their looking into it so it wasn't totally intentional.

Still shitty and completely unnecessary. Really Rise is old enough at this point that DRM should be removed, not added.
Seems like you're just nitpicking here. Congress holds the purse strings, but the President and Congress influence each other, and in the cast of the 2016 U.S. election, the president had a lot of influence on the Congress.
Network Engineering Principles of Dave Mills
He doesn't name it but this strand of reasoning is the basis for social reproduction theory, related to but different from what marxists mean by social reproduction.

The core of it has to do with separating economic labor into the (crude, limited, but still useful) divisions of "thing-making" and "reproduction." Where the reproduction division is work having to do with creating and caring for people, (reproducing the means of labor).

And then obviously most of that work has historically and currently still is associated with women: cooking, cleaning, education, nursing, and of course and importantly, literally reproduction in having and caring for children. These domains are almost universally less prestigious and less well paid than "thing making" work, though people argue it both ways about the cause and effect of this relationship.

I find this theory has pretty solid explanatory power for a lot of things I see, while not being a perfect model for everything. What I find most interesting about it is how at the borders, it isn't exclusively about what is being done but also why. Construction work is clearly thing-making, but building housing so that a family or community can grow unimpeded has a strong element of reproduction to it as well. I find this both a strength and weakness of the model.

That's funny. I had an LG fridge die one night after 1.5 years with a loud bang. It sounded like a gun had gone off in the house and at first I had no idea what it was, but I guess it was something bursting in the compressor.

Home Depot warranty paid for a replacement and we still loved the size and features so we got the same model. Ended up selling the house and only a few weeks later the new owner wanted me to rush over the warranty paperwork because the same thing had happened. This one lasted less than a year.

I will never buy another refrigerator without an extended warranty.
Pretty much every airline I've ever seen provides the aircraft type right in the flight list view. The reason they don't let you filter by it is because aircraft types can change before the actual flight so it would be an odd feature to provide given there is zero guarantee you will get that aircraft.
There are at least dozen libs other than Electron that allow to put some lists and images together and be fully platform independent. I'm not even saying what language. This Spotify app was a prototype which stalled at some point because I guess they have much harsher issues to deal with.
SIMD intrinsics are also translated directly into opcodes. There's very little reason to have floating point ops represented by special syntax rather than ordinary functions like fadd() fsub() fmul() fdiv() fmuladd(), other than mere legacy. (And they might not even be simple opcodes in a soft-float implementation.) I mention floating point specifically because that's where even something basic like the order of operations can affect the outcome, so the extra precision actually matters.

LG and Samsung are both notoriously awful for this. Even when they come with crazy long warranties, parts will never be available.

The irony is that cheaper models are still crazy durable - less circuitry, less moving parts, less "economy" features, more off-the-shelf components. If you actually want appliances that last forever, think like a landlord and buy yourself the boring products.
