So, my favorite pattern in Rust for this is to use a u8, (or u16 etc)-repr Enum for register addresses and values. So, you'd do something like, assuming a direct register API vice a wrapper:

write_register(Reg::Config as u8, value)

Where `value` may be constructed from variables or, wait for it... Might be a binary literal because it's easier to compare to the datasheet if it's a one-off vice a general API. If it's a general API, it is probably handled with a config struct etc, where each field is a u8-repr enum.

Code like this should IMO always have a reference to the relevant DS table in comments, and probably an explanation of why you're setting the bits that way.
There are certainly people slapping AI generated code into production in small projects without adequately checking them, leading to things like inadequate input validating leading to open XSS and injection vectors. With too little oversight in a more significant project it is only a matter of time before this happens somewhere that results in, for instance, a DoS that affects many people, or a personal data leek.

Given the way LLMs are trained, it might be unlike but it is conceivable that if they see deliberate back doors injected into enough of the training data, they'll consider it to be a valid part of a certain class of solution and output the same themselves. It is a big step again from deliberate back-doors to active malware, but not an inconceivable one IMO if large enough chunks of code are being trusted with minimal testing.

The key point from that thread is probably about set dressing:

>> Unlike other traditional studios, Netflix does not store/warehouse set pieces. It all gets fire-sold at wrap. So at say, Paramount, a set designer can use elements from the last 25 years stored away with Paramount. Producers can pull elements from storage and slide chunks of the budget towards casting or other high production value.

It certainly seemed like For All Mankind warehoused a significant chunk of set elements, but I assume it was no-question greenlit into subsequent seasons.
I think the number of people who read the books is quite small so they kind of had to pander to an audience that hadn't. I kind of enjoyed it but it is a bit...strange.
Spanish is easy except for those pesky conjugations.

But, do you know how hard it is to fluidly conjugate into 50 verb forms in spoken speech?

Plus, people gloss over this fact, but Spanish is highly inflected. After you choose 1 out of 50 conjugation for your form, you have to choose a gender for your noun, and inflect your adjectives by number and gender. Conceptually, it’s not difficult. But if you open your mouth and starting try to talk this way you’ll mess up for about the first 5 years.

I can do it. But of course a language which I know seems easy to me!

But point taken that most languages have conjugations + all that other stuff, too.
> The Foundation tv show shares nothing but the name with Asimov's books

It is closer to the source material than the film _I, Robot_ was to the short story. It retains at least some of the overall plot.

I only watched the first episode, TBH, and didn't find it interesting enough to keep going. I'm pretty old (56) and I read my dad's original copies _Foundation_ as a little pre-teen kid, when it was already 30+ years old, and the sequel trilogy when they were newly released in the 1980s.

It has not aged well, and the producers did well to modernise it, I think.

But still...

Feeding people into the bureaucracy machine is quick, easy and looks good on your KPIs, so that is where the focus is. Helping people get out of the bureaucracy is hard and time consuming, so that mostly gets ignored. Being stuck in limbo for years with a pending CPS case would be shattering to most people, even if nothing concrete ends up happening.
Small-landlords are almost always a "mistake" on one side or the other. Most of them have an incorrect assessment of the costs associated with being a landlord, and this depresses the rental market and also traps them, making them do unethical and illegal things, like not maintaining properties, etc. And if the only reason they're renting their property is because it appreciated and they're carrying a low-interest rate mortgage, they're almost certainly not accounting for the costs. When people realize you can't rent properties profitably and pay a property management firm to manage it, they realize they're not a landlord, they're an underpaid property management firm for the bank. That only makes sense if appreciation is nuts and you can go long on huge leverage.

The surest thing to strip down the number of landlords is to slow appreciation, when appreciation is sky-high even idiots doing everything wrong come out smelling like roses.

I think a strong thing to work on would be to reduce the "single rental LLC" trick that people use to separate the various properties
It's possible if you attach 6 pairs of your hexagons along two adjacent sides. https://archive.bridgesmathart.org/2017/bridges2017-237.html

For example, you can cover an octahedron with 4 regular hexagons, with 2 of the hexagons coming together at each octahedron vertex. Or you can divide these hexagons each into any Löschian number (integers of the form a² + b² + ab).

You might protest that these "hexagons" are now not connected like a honeycomb anymore, and now you have 12 "pentagons" mixed in, and that's true. But this idea turns out to still be very practically useful for making grids on a sphere, etc.

> People want their children to have good standards of living, too.

The average woman in Niger will have seven children. Clearly that's a good enough standard of living, else they would have no children by your logic.

You can't provide a better life to one child, let alone seven, than someone in Niger? And if not, how do you explain your parents? That means they had no trouble bringing you into a horrible existence. Something doesn't quite add up here.

> You're talking about industrialization and child labor laws

I agree that industrialization was the catalyst that made everyone richer, allowing them to no longer need children to support them. In the first world, even the poorest people are much, much, much richer today than rich people were in earlier times.
> He said that if he could have chosen a language, instead of English, to be the world’s shared second language, then it would be Swahili or colloquial Indonesian.

I've learned Swahili to a basic conversational level and my experience learning the language mirrors the author's time picking up Esperanto. Grammatically, everything seems to make sense especially the simplicity of the verbs, and as a native English speaker you can pretty much pronounce/hear all the sounds from the jump. However, once you get deeper into the language you have to worry about the extreme amount of noun classes (think genders). In Swahili there are 8+ depending how you count them. These noun classes change the prefixes on the adjectives and verbs around them which can cause major confusion. I've always thought if they condensed these noun classes to 1 or 2 then Swahili would be the simplest language in the world.

I didn't believe Fox News, I independently verified it by viewing many sources of data. https://www.accel.com/spotlight-on/episodes/google-bard-jack... https://www.crunchbase.com/person/jack-krawczyk https://www.menshealth.com/health/a46149606/a-day-in-the-lif... https://www.cnbc.com/2023/03/03/google-execs-say-in-all-hand... and many google results that point to LinkedIn pages that no longer host content (IE, he deleted/locked his linkedin). I can list many other sites that reference him as product lead for bard. My guess is he's a Director/Product Manager Manager, IE a little above a typical product manager, the lowest level of exec.

As for whether a single product manager has that level of control over the serving product... query term rewriting has been a google strategy for quite some time and I doubt a single PM really can influence the product this way and still manage to launch, but as I don't work there and am not privy to the internal details of this product's launch, I can't really say.

That the product is full of disrespect for the user, that I agree. I don't envy the paeans trying to get promos by associating their name with gemini internally.

It is impossible if you're being responsible. You don't choose a technology that could potentially block you from solving problems in the future unless it brings a huge value to you.

Elm's value proposition is mostly being a functional language with an opinionated MVU library baked in, so you can reproduce that value with a better functional language and selecting a similar MVU library in that other language, which means it should never actually cross the value bar above the risk it brings if you need a browser feature it doesn't support and actively prevents you from accessing.

Or general human reproductive ‘cost’ is heritable.

Think r/K evolutionary strategies [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/R/K_selection_theory]

A species that can produce 1000+ offspring (or more) per mating (with multiple matings per adult lifespan) - like most insects, seaturtles/squids, etc. has little incentive to have high precision/accuracy reproduction.

One that does a small handful (whales, elephants, etc), has a lot of incentive to do so (or self abort early on if there is an issue).

This gets complicated though, because while a single individual in a species which is predominantly r strategy (few offspring), can be ‘more’ on the K side, and vice versa.

And a species which has too much consistency, both genetically and ‘approach’ is very susceptible to inbreeding/mono-cropping issues where a single event/disease can wipe them out, or they can even destroy themselves due to recessive traits.

So there is a general (but diffuse!) evolutionary pressure towards a degree of mutation/error in reproduction in even the most hardcore ‘r’ species (which will necessarily produce a lot of noise/‘wasted paths’) at the species level, alongside a hard evolutionary pressure to reduce it for individuals.

In for example humans. Or elephants. Or whales.

This is also why things like rich/poor, healthy/sick, pretty/ugly, strong/weak, etc. will never go away - they’re outcome distributions along a probability curve due to fundamental different approaches by individual humans due to the necessity of how humans have to be in order for humanity (the species) to survive.

Individuals have strong incentives to ‘tip the scales’ in various ways of course, and societies (at a minimum!) have strong incentives to stop them. It’s why aborting based on gender is illegal in India, for instance. [https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7920120/]

Because if everyone had the same attributes in order for everyone to be ‘pretty’ or ‘strong’ or ‘rich’ or whatever, then some hypothetical weight-lifting-infectious-disease (or a famine, or an attack by jealous anti-weightlifters) would wipe out the whole population. And if everyone optimized for ‘rich’ genes (whatever that means), then society would implode, because that literally couldn’t work.

And those types of situations, albeit less light hearted, have, do, and will continue to happen eventually.
There probably would be while the market adjusts to the new demand levels and reallocates resources accordingly. But it would level itself out.

When I was in my teens and 20s, I enjoyed complexity, because understanding complicated things made me feel smart. That meant I had an incredible tolerance for needless complexity.

Now that I've been around the block a few times, though, I just don't have patience for that kind of thing anymore. It all reminds me of the Wallace and Gromit cartoons. Wallace is a very smart and clever inventor, and his inventions are very smart and very clever and very silly.
Ownership comes with privileges for the cost. Sure, you have to deal with major repairs, but you also get to choose the designs, colors, layout, and more for your house, and you don't have someone watching over your shoulder to "preserve their investment" beyond the bank requiring insurance.

Ownership has other advantages for society beyond that, there's a reason people say "drive it like a rental".

Maybe then the outside is just dangerous. There are lots of outdoor activities so dangerous that staying inside might be a better alternative in terms of preventable injuries (football, surfing, motorsports, anything involving horses).

I dispute that. It is perhaps the only SF I've ever read that solved the problem of time travel -- moving matter forwards or backwards through time -- and still told an interesting story.

I'd say in terms of realistic nature, it's maybe the best time travel story ever told.
> would your answer change based on how I answer?

Yes. I have a ton of bias around this issue, and I would imagine most people who care about it (in whatever way) do as well. I think it's much more productive to be attentive to those biases, rather than pretend they don't exist.

Consider the word "landlord". Imagine two people are trying to have conversation about the ethics of rental housing: for one of those people, a "landlord" is the person who broke the law and kicked their family our of their house; for the other, a "landlord" is their brother, who they know to be a reasonable and ethical person. Words mean really different things to different people, and that shapes the whole process of communication. If you did have family or friends who owned rental property, then I'd want to take a step back and think more carefully about how to try to find common ground.

Does that make sense?
Republicans won the Congressional Popular vote exactly half the time since then: 2010 (by almost 7 points), 2014 (by almost 6), 2016, and 2022.

As long as we are talking about counter-factual political systems: If the US had a parliamentary system like most democracies, Republicans would have controlled the presidency for 8 of the last 16 years. Given their coalition of disaffected minorities and recent immigrants, Democrats benefit tremendously from the quirks of the US Presidential system, which lends itself to nationwide machine politics.
