On some level I think some things make sense to patent. And they are more algorithms. Let's say compression of file or image or stream. Sure go ahead and give those a patent. If they are superior someone will pay license fee.

On other hand idea of compressing something should not be patentable. If someone can read few lines summary of patent and come up with solution that does same thing, but might not be interoperable no you should not get patent.
The chicken breasts were fairly large 386g cooked (so even more raw). 315g of green beans. When I provided the grams it did better but was still off by 250+ calories (I’m guessing it ignored me mentioning that that was cooked weight.) It’s a cool tool and it can be useful but if you’re not careful you’ll run into some very inaccurate guesstimates. One way to improve accuracy would be for the system to learn from previous logs (both in the system and previous apps.)
With the exception of Switzerland, this didn't tend to go too well in the middle ages - the early modern age was the first time this became viable "at scale", hence the French Revolution.

There were plenty of earlier cases of one family of minor nobility killing another family of minor nobility and taking over their farmland and serfs, but successful peasant revolts that led to a change in the hierarchy were really rare (outside of Switzerland). Even the 1381 "Great Revolt" in England, which called for the abolition of serfdom among other things, is evaluated by the World History Encyclopaedia [1] as "largely unsuccessful" despite having many factors in its favour: a rise in the bargaining power of surviving peasants after the Black Death, and peasants armed and trained with knight-killing longbows. And yet Wat Tyler's head ended up on a pike, and despite the poll tax being rolled back, serfdom as an institution remained.

Before I understood how voltage regulators worked, I thought you could just attach a LM7805 to a 22 volt lithium source for running the electronics on a high-power robot. I learned that a failing/overheating LM7805 will pass the full voltage to your microcontroller, and that the microcontroller core will still be "oven hot" a full minute or two after it releases its innards.
Just one "Datapoint", but I have a colleague that works in injection molding. Granted, he works on the "other end" of the size scale (complete car underbodys in one part), but he always said it was more or less a given fact that the two companies wo had "dialed in" their molding processes to near perfection and quality were Lego and Games Workshop in the UK.
What makes one mocked product succede while another fails?

Google Glass and its users were mocked and it was a complete failure.

The iPad was mocked and ended up as an underperforming division, yet still the market leader because everyone else dropped the ball really badly.

AirPods were mocked but they are a wild success helped of course by the removal of the 3.5 jack.
Empirical evidence. I've tried some fake brick sets, most of them were obviously not as good. The QC is worse for sure, but it's the little things - sometimes it's weight, sometimes it's texture, sometimes it's color that is slightly "off".

Those "other bricks" are quite useful when you want something that Lego won't produce. For example gimp figurine for your Pulp Fiction diorama.
Plant based "news" is a misnomer unfortunately. They operate as an activist org rather than news. Nothing necessarily wrong with that but they can conveniently leave out facts that don't align with a plant based philosophy.

levels and blind sort of feels that way, but that's part of the issue:

1. these kinds of sites are a paradox in that you want employees to be anonymous but also verified. So you can't just spin up a site in a week and have valuable data

2. despite the comparisons, I'm sure both levels and blind were in fact vc funded. The models feels indie but it probably isn't. But they did their part for SEO and marketing and yadda yadda. So it got the eyeballs it needed before word of mouth set in

The title is crap but the message is on point: CS is an interdisciplinary field and supporting cross-discipline education in CS is very useful - look at applications from NLP to UX to EDM

I think CMU's approach of requiring SCS students minor in a non-Eng major is a fairly useful way of helping inculcate that skill.

Sadly, most universities suck at making degrees more open ended due to Administrative laziness.
If you write it to a text file by itself and then read it from that text file, each runtime can have a different definition of whether a newline at the end of the file is meaningful or not. Under POSIX, a newline should always be present at the end of a non-empty text file and is not meaningful; not everyone agrees or is aware.

There are plenty of other ways, too; bugs happen.
Alternative explanation would be quite different: once people have their needs and worries taken care of, they immediately think of new needs. These new needs are (naturally) not being catered (yet), so people feel unhappy. Once these are catered, new ones are created.

If my neighbours have a car but I don't, I'm unhappy. If I get a car, I'm unhappy since my neighbours have an SUV. Once I get an SUV, I'm unhappy since they have one with climate control, power windows, roof window, and navigation. Rinse, repeat.

This explanation talks more about what we humans are as a species, and less about government etc.

The source can obviously biased. I became a vegetarian recently for ethical reasons and the critiques I receive around me center solely on health issues, with the occasional "we are humans, we eat meat!". These have absolutely no bearing on the ethics of vegetarianism or veganism. I understand people want solid arguments from different perspectives, but for me, they are useless.
> being a public school

Fairly strong. There are DoD and DoE requirements that bias in favor of pushing R&D funding into Public Universities.

GATech's early lead in computing was because of it's longstanding relationship with the US Navy's Nuclear and Aerospace Programs (both of which have significant HPC needs).

It's a similar story at UCB, UIUC, UMich, UT Austin, UW, etc.

Aside from MIT, Stanford, and Cornell, the bulk of DoE and DoD funding ends up at public universities.

> private schools end up a better place to study CS due to their smaller class sizes and less variance

I attended an Ivy Level CS program for undergrad. My sibling attended a Tier 1 public school program for CS.

My sibling's CS education was superior, as the public university was able to hire way more faculty at better rates, as most decent public universities have multiple DoD and DoE universities and grantmakers to entice faculty and graduate students.

If it isn't Stanford, Cornell, or MIT, I'd say the CS curriculum is middling at a private.

I myself wish I attended GATech instead of my supposedly "prestigious" undergrad as the research and industrial opportunities at a Tier 1/2 Public CS program like a upper Tier UC, UW, GT, UIUC, etc are hard to beat almost anywhere.

I think the main benefit an elite private school might have is a better support system, but by and large, the student base is largely comparable - if you're Berkeley EECS or UT Austin/UW direct CS you would have had stats comparable to a Stanford or MIT undergrad
Raku (formerly Perl 6) has picked ^ and $ for start-of-string and end-of-string, and has introduced ^^ and $$ for start-of-line and end-of-line. No multi line mode is available or necessary.

Not that this it's a good excuse, but it stressed doctors out when they are not able to diagnose something. So when all the tests and checks look good they are quick to dismiss the problems as psychosomatic as a way to cope with the stress of being unable to diagnose you.

It's a dysregulation of the ANS/sympathetic nervous system which is likely caused by auto antibodies - so it's very much physiological and outside the expertise of a psychiatrist.
Porn is how the insidious communists impurify and drain our precious bodily fluids.

That hypothetical scenario is as absurd as it is irrelevant. I don’t understand why some humans feel such a burning need to be LLM apologists.

Companies don’t want customer support representatives to show annoyance or frustration even if they’re human; wasting time and resources adding that unhelpful behaviour to chatbots just to deliberately trick the minute number of people who use these techniques is absurd.

And it’s irrelevant because (it should be obvious) neither I nor the OP claimed this was a solution to distinguish humans from bots forever. It was just a funny story of something that was effective now in one specific scenario.

The ISO/IEC 14882 C++ standard library <regex> mandates [0] implementations for six de jure standard regex grammars: IEEE Std 1003.1-2008 (POSIX) [1] BRE, ERE, awk, grep, and egrep and ECMA-262 EcmaScript 3 [2].

So, yes, at least someone (me) considers regex to be standardized in several published de jure standards.

Neutrality allows Ireland to hedge its political stance. But not taking a position on things like invasions, etc., is morally bankrupt.

Ireland benefits greatly from a strong Europe, which exists due to military aid from the US and some European states to Ukraine. War is coming in Asia and we will see how this goes.

Workaround for Java 8 crashing in macOS 14.4
Since last upgrade, I am having serious problems using PyCharm and other Java based tools.
PyCharm crashes at least once per hour.

I saw Oracle's post and I wondered if I could something about while someone addresses the problem.
reference: https://blogs.oracle.com/java/post/java-on-macos-14-4

I added `-Xnojit` to PyCharm initialisation and since then I had at most once crash per day.
Performance takes a notable hit, but the IDE is at least usable. I tried using -Xnoat but that was unusable.

Just wanted to share with you folks. Maybe it is useful for someone. I am also curious to know if that helps anything.
Sorry I meant to write “if you can do it in sed you can do it in anything” thereby implying it is a subset of the more generally available flavours. The issue at hand however is that there isn’t much in the way of standardisation but 95% of sed should work across all of them. Of course you should get more into the specifics of whatever your solution space supports.
> If the a C++ file includes any C++ stdlib header it will also also become very large (tens of thousands of lines of gnarly template code for common headers like <vector> or <string>). If the unit of compilation is a crate in Rust it should actually be faster to build than typical C++ projects which often put the implementation for one class into one source file (and each of those source files is expanded to tens of thousands of lines of code after includes are resolved).

> C mostly doesn't suffer from this problem though, since C header typically are only a couple dozen or hundred lines of API declarations.

But then, there's no reason why Rust couldn't be like C. The issue comes from the dependencies and libraries bundled, which is not an issue per se of the language.
That's really interesting. Did you learn about this somewhere or was it more by yourself?

All these studies are self-reported happiness (basically, many people answering the question "How happy do you feel today?"). Israel ranks high because large parts of the population — the religious ones, with not a lot of income but many children and a strong sense of fulfillment — are regularly and steadily self-reporting high levels of happiness.

(This relates to both Jewish and Muslim citizens of Israel.)

Your (or mine, or anyone's) view of their conditions don't have much influence on their everyday feelings.

> Makes this whole Ranking suspicious

There's nothing too suspicious about asking many people in different countries are they feeling happy on this particular day. If anything, what's looking suspicious is the premise that high levels of GDP (for whatever that means) would result in more happiness of the people.
Does gpt produce efficient regex? Are there any experts here that can assess the quality and correctness of gpt-generated regex? I wonder how regex responses by gpt are validated if the prompter does not have the knowledge to read the output.
Some things are so obviously true that only a team of academics could convince themselves otherwise.

The main factor that I'm aware of is hyperstimulation. There's the mental effect from exposure to increasingly extreme and perverse categories of porn (pedophilia, AGP/sissy, interracial, bestiality, BDSM, etc) "numbing" porn-sick men to healthy sexual stimuli, as well as the physical effects of overstimulation in the form of "death grip syndrome" where these men become so accustomed to their hands that nothing else can do the job.

These factors, combined with the lowered confidence and shame associated with porn addiction, intuitively also lead to anxiety-related performance issues.
"- Chemotherapy is used to kill all living bone marrow and remove all previous unedited stem cells.

It's very likely HIV could be cured similarly. I believe all the people who have been cured so far are bone marrow transplant recipients in which the marrow had a specific gene or genes.
The second option is what C# defaults to since a few versions ago.
I would hazard that nowadays it’s Java due to its broad permeation of the application space
not sure if you need to kill absolutely all living bone marrow. Unlike cancer having 5% sickle cell red blood cells is probably fine. That makes the chemo probably way less bad than what you would need for cancer.

Given that in unix they sort started as:

ed -> sed
ed -> grep

The line oriented mature makes sense.

There is some sed multi-line capability if one uses the hold space, but it is much easier to just use awk.
I have the exact same experience as you. I have build 50+ sets, 10 of them 1500+ piece sets and a few over 3000. I have never had a missing piece. I have had small pieces that was hiding or I dropped on the floor, but never missing. There is always some additional pieces in the set, and I assume it's because they err on the side of being sure.
I am pretty sure even pure Awk can do it; or am I mistaken? I thought there was an even more sophisticated example in the Awk book.
