> PHP mixed with HTML was one of the "bad ideas" that hurt PHP. It was a bad practice that got out of hand.

If you think of PHP as prototype-only, mixing tags and HTML is very convenient, like it is with the other thousand templating tools. And obviously it's more a problem of XSS through badly sanitized inputs more than the mix in itself, blah blah blah

It's PHP in production a bad practice that got out of hand.

My perception is that more and better warnings, and common use of -Wall, came into vogue around the time of GCC 4, in the mid 2000s. It would have been pretty abrupt to immediately enforce C99 in 1999-2000.
It is also difficult to prove because a web browser, yes even Safari, is an open platform by design and it can can run 99% of the web successfully just like other browser. Yes that is true even for Safari. People like to call Safari the “new IE” but in reality today’s web works equally well in all major browsers including Safari.

(Wait for someone to comment that that feature XYZ does not work on Safari and therefor it sucks - yes but that is the nature of the web and browsers. Every Single Browser out there has something missing or added. That has not prevented anyone from building great websites that work in all of them. )

I think any reasonable interpretation of the comment you’re replying to is not “sleep is always good” but rather “sleep is good, on the whole”, which is absolutely true.

Both studies you linked indicate correlation not causation
When the Fed raises interest rates, it slams on everyone's brakes. Should GlobalFoundries somehow predicted the macro environment, better than everyone else, and followed their gut on reading macro tea leaves and pre-anticipated what the Fed would do? Ideally, yes, they would know the future, but in reality the best laid plans must change to meet reality, as current events always has surprises that can not be 100% derisked.

laundering is a crime which relies on identifying an illicit origin. so this victimless invention is actually impossible to prosecute laundering on its own, only unsuccessful laundering not just “why are you moving money how suspicious”, and it can only be a tacked on charge that might stick when the other charges wont

They know this quite well.

What you are arguing about is if they care enough to do something about it.

At some point our society-breaking universal presence of principal agent problems is going to break our society. It's absurd that it didn't already, and people have been observing that absurdity been absurd for some good 50 years at minimum. But assuming the problem doesn't exist this late on the game is hard-core cognitive dissonance.
That's really a you problem, you need a hobby that you can make actual friends at. coworkers are never friends. Why should a company subsidize your need to have fun at work, we're here to get a job done, not horse around on the company dime.

Sounds like the USA. The oil and gas industry has an extra twist in #3 which would read:

3. Producing field get exhausted or becomes uneconomic to operate, company sells field to smaller less-capitalized operator who reworks some wells in an effort to pay back their investment.

4. Smaller operator eventually sells to a mom-and-pop operator who operates a series of stripper wells in the field. Once production from these wells decline to the point where this under-capitalized operator can no longer profit the field is abandoned and tax payers are left to fund the cleanup.

All of this can take decades before abandonment and any technological advance during that time could make the field more attractive to large operators who would then buy these fields from the mom-and-pops and mid-size operators so they could squeeze even more profits before cycling back into the later steps of the loop.

Over a long enough time period you have a Texas which is dotted with tens of thousands of orphaned or abandoned wells. Many of these wells leak oil, natural gas, or brines into shallow surface aquifers when the old production strings inevitably rust away. The problem is worse when new tech maintains production in an area since wells that were abandoned years or decades ago but never plugged are effectively open to atmospheric pressure and when a technique like hydraulic fracturing is used downhole, it repressurizes formations and can force fluids up thru unplugged wellbores to the surface where, if controls are not in place, fluid spills are inevitable.

When that happens in an area that had been abandoned the operator responsible for the increased pressure would argue that cleanup is not their responsibility since the previous owner was responsible (had paid a bond to the state) for the plugging and abandonment of the leaking well.

It's more complicated than this but you get the idea. It's never their problem and the wrong people tend to get stuck with remediation expenses.
The Allocator type is an unstable parameter on the heap type; Vec<T> is unstably Vec<T, A>, Arc<T> is unstably Arc<T, A>, and so on. (The allocator "A" defaults to Global, which is an Allocator that forwards to the registered GlobalAlloc.) I think the Linux kernel also wants an Allocator trait for other reasons than fallibility, such as allocating different kinds of objects on different heaps.
It does work for objects, but I imagine the problem you're describing is that JavaScript objects are equal if and only if they're the same reference, so you get this:

const set = new Set();
set.add({});
set.add({});
// Set has 2 items [{}, {}]
const a = {};
set.add(a);
set.add(a);
// Set has only 3 items [{}, {}, {}]

The actual problem here is that JavaScript doesn't have any way to override `equals` and `hashCode` like Java does, so there's no way to change this reference-equality behavior.
One almost certainly does not need anything else ... unless what you want is big piles of investor cash, a Scrooge McDuck swimming pool quantity of investor cash - then you need to call whatever maths you do AI.
From 1997-2001 I worked in a glorious place where everyone had an office with a door and a window. Indeed, the doors were mostly open, but they opened onto corridors, meaning it was [by overwhelming] default quiet in the offices.
No, you are simply more accepting of a certain interface being pushed onto you. I find the podcasts incredibly frustrating because I like to keep my interfaces streamlined and minimalistic. I would much rather have my homepage focused on my content than a bunch of podcasts I don't care to listen to and a bunch of playlists in which I have no interest. In my opinion, the app is frustratingly bloated. Your opinion is valid, but this complaint is as well.
I'm simply pointing out that a "pure bash" or other shell program is folly once you get past a trivial level of complexity.

That How-to doesn't mention that shell eats nulls. If you're using shell as glue, that doesn't matter, but if you're using shell to process (not pass to another program) raw tcp connections, you'll need to manage binary data, which is full of nulls.

Perhaps you're not even aware of these issues? Anyhow, go on about your life grand troll, you're the winner.

Out of curiosity, would you consider the grocery stores you visit to be relatively representative of the country overall?

The language is good at creating literal objects of no particular type/class/prototype. The concept of a Set is closer to an Array of unique Numbers than one of literal objects:

const s = new Set([1,2,3]);

The resulting instance of Set can be queried for something existing in the set, have items added to the set, and remove from the set. This doesn’t handle literal objects (e.g. a record) well, which isn’t idiosyncratic to JS as most languages treat objects as reference-ish. The solution be to use a literal String or Number identifier that can be looked up.

I’m genuinely curious, what features from other languages do you want to see in this implementation?
I believe I was actually at this facility around the time this video was taken! I was there with a large group mixing scientists and others who were sending acrylic through it to make captured lightning/lightning sculptures/lichtenberg figures! It was a really cool experience!

>The outage originated from our partner AWS and took down Wyze devices for several hours early Friday morning.
... As we worked to bring cameras back online, we experienced a security issue. Some users reported seeing the wrong thumbnails and Event Videos in their Events tab.
... The incident was caused by a third-party caching client library that was recently integrated into our system. This client library received unprecedented load conditions caused by devices coming back online all at once. As a result of increased demand, it mixed up device ID and user ID mapping and connected some data to incorrect accounts.

As an software engineer who's dealt with caches for large high throughput services, this does not make sense to me why they are blaming a caching client. It's your own code that will decide what is the cache key, and what value to pass as the cache key. Did the caching library have a bug where when you ask for a given key, it returned results for a different key? Or more likely did your own code have a bug where you mixed up the keys? I think we need more details on what went wrong in here.

Firefox v89 was the last version I used. I just couldn't be bothered with them constantly changing and removing features for no reason. I switched to Vivaldi, which offer basic functionality like vertical tabs, and a fully customisable UI out of the box. It's far from perfect, notably being closed source which was hard for me to swallow, but it annoys me far less than Firefox ever did. I have it set up how I like it, and that setup has stayed static in the three years I've used it now. Firefox frankly feels user hostile in comparison.

Thunderbird was ruined with version 115, so I switched to Kmail. I miss calendar integration in my email client though.

Nit just because it's interesting (to me at least): carbon dating is never useful on things this old. The halflife of carbon-14 is so short that by about 50k years you're pushing it to about its limit.

It is a joke now compared to what it was.

There are entire parts of the music industry that no longer exists.

There use to be working musicians in every city that were basically unknown outside the city. NYC or SF had their own entirely unique music scenes.

There use to be entire bars that were goth bars or punk bars in even mid sized cities. Imagine opening a bar in 2024 that only caters to people who like punk music? It doesn't even make sense.

Music has been degraded in importance by streaming video and social media. To just compare the distribution channels misses the plot.

Every city use to have a knock off free paper of the Village Voice that was mostly for promoting live music. Now even the Village Voice itself is basically dead.

Anyone who thinks things are good now, simply can't comprehend what they missed out on.

Music teaching is a good example I think. There use to be all kinds of professional music teachers. If you were a gigging local musician you had the other income stream of teaching. Youtube is great for a music teacher that happens to win the music teaching lottery at the expense of all other music teachers. Of course, if you ask the youtube lottery winner they will say things have never been better. Scale that process across everything to do with music and that is the reality compared to the old reality.

You can't ask the gigging local musician who teaches on the side how things are because they are mostly doing something else now and don't count.

It is like asking the lottery winners if it is worth it to play the lottery. Not surprisingly they all say yes, best thing ever.

>> I’m not sure what you mean by “can’t even make chopsticks by itself,”

> I mean that quite literally. I know Georgia (the state, to be clear) has (or had) a robust disposable chopstick manufacturing industry, but nearly every disposable chopstick I see sold or given out are Made In China these days.

But these are different things. “Can’t make chopsticks by itself” is clearly not true, I could just go make a pair of chopsticks if I wanted. You can find expensive hand-made chopsticks from the US. The US might not have a huge production of disposable chopsticks, but making really simple things at scale is a place where we don’t have a competitive advantage, and I wouldn’t be surprised if we have a relatively low demand for chopsticks, so this doesn’t seem surprising or indicative of anything in particular.
I've worked at large companies that do both B2B and B2C.

B2C gets 90% Google logins, 10% email logins, and small amounts of Twitter, Facebook, Microsoft, etc logins.

B2B is different. I forget the numbers but you get more email logins, Microsoft logins, and company SSO logins. Google and email were the still the top from what I saw.

If I were building a site today, I'd start with Google and email, with a plan to expand to more providers including SSO for the big enterprise customers if I was doing B2B.

It's worth noting that it may have got lucky with the first response. A clean session with the prompt:

> Could you generate me a 64 bit prime?

Returns:

> Sure, here's a 64-bit prime number: 15592425903773483751

> You can verify that it's prime by checking that it has no divisors between 2 and its square root. In this case, the square root of the number is approximately 12489593.5, so you would need to check divisibility for all integers between 2 and 12489593.5. Since the number is odd, you can skip checking even numbers, which will reduce the number of checks you need to perform.

> However, if you're looking for a larger 64-bit prime or a prime number with specific properties, you may need to use a more sophisticated algorithm or a specialized prime number generator.

Like GPT3.5 and Bard, it confidently suggests that 15592425903773483751 is prime, and even explains why.

It's wrong:

> $ factor 15592425903773483751
> 15592425903773483751: 3 3 3 7 167 853 911 635723119

Further prompting:

> Can you factor 15592425903773483751?

> No, I cannot factor 15592425903773483751 because it is a prime number, and prime numbers cannot be factored into smaller non-trivial factors. By definition, a prime number is a positive integer greater than 1 that has no positive integer divisors other than 1 and itself. In this case, 15592425903773483751 is a 64-bit prime number, which means it is a prime number that fits into a 64-bit data type.

> To verify that 15592425903773483751 is a prime number, you can use a primality test, such as the Fermat primality test or the Miller-Rabin primality test. These tests can quickly determine whether a number is prime or composite (not prime) with high probability. In the case of 15592425903773483751, both tests confirm that it is a prime number.

Even further prompting to get it to try to multiply numbers together quickly turns into a disaster, culminating with:

> That doesn't look right

> I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. Here is the correct result of the multiplication:

> 3 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 167 x 853 x 911 x 635723119 = 322711211111111111

> Therefore, the product of the numbers is:

> 322711211111111111.

> I apologize for any confusion my previous response may have caused.

The context seems to be really aggressively baked in, because when I ask it:

> Can you factor 322711211111111111?

It returns

> Yes, I can factor the number 322711211111111111. Here is its prime factorization:

> 322711211111111111 = 3 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 167 x 853 x 911 x 635723119

> Therefore, the prime factors of the number are 3, 7, 167, 853, 911, and 635723119.

> Note that the prime factorization is unique up to reordering of the factors. In this case, the prime factors are repeated several times, so the prime factorization can be written more compactly as:

> 3^3 x 7 x 167 x 853 x 911 x 635723119

> or

> 3 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 167 x 853 x 911 x 635723119

> I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

The real irony? 322711211111111111 is prime!
A couple observations:

1. All outgoing Amazon links appear to be intentionally augmented with a "?tag" querystring parameter "probablecausality-20". This appears to be an Amazon-specific affiliate link tracker [0], which means the author is indirectly profiting from every purchase originated from this site, which feels scummy or disingenuous at best.

2. If the author is accepting sponsorship/advertisement revenue from brands for promoting their products, this should be extremely clearly disclosed. Notably, many major brands (like G.SKILL) are conspicuously absent from the rankings, despite having some of the most competitive capacity/dollar ratios.

Are more or less acts making a living off their music now or back then? Absolute numbers and percentage-wise?

How do we decide what number is "fair", or what we as a society want? Surely it's not reasonable that every band that's just started out in a garage should be making bank.

I don't think that it's more difficult to be a professional musical artist or musician today than it used to be, although the business model may be different. But even if it is, I think that's a decent compromise for all the benefits the streaming services bring.
Right - it's the common perception part that bothers me.

> Nevertheless, communism is a valid threat to current-state America, as there seems to be a large push towards marxist ideologies that are corrupting long standing public institutions.

Blame that on neoliberal policies enacted since the 80s which eroded the social contract between employment and the fruits of labour. America's economical policies have steadily eroded the middle class, when the system isn't working people will look into alternatives to fix its failures, the system never fixes itself, the longer these issues fester the harsher the whiplash will be.

I'm also curious: what kind of marxist ideology is taking over America's politics? I don't see anyone in the USA's political landscape advocating for land redistribution, communal ownership of the means of production, etc. There's no Marxism in the USA's power structure, at least not in any meaningful form, there might be some Reddit/TikTok vitriol but that is just that: vitriol.

From what I see in the US people are shouting about wanting a fairer system, not for the proletariat to take over the means of production...
