I see your argument in the sense that having kids and a relationship are a lot of work but they're also an inspiration. I have two children and I can say yes, you can still be a creative fulfilled individual. But it's not as easy with the extra responsibility. And one has to be more focused.
It's fair to say that anyone looking for what an LLM might output on this topic could just ask an LLM, no?
While I can see a convenience argument for the somewhat contrived case of typing an entire file out by hand, entering the character once for the import does not seem like a great bar.

> it is nice to be able to easily type it.

Again, that's where an IME is helpful; on the OSes I mention, it's "␞" is:

macOS: ⌘+^+Space, "record", <arrows to select>, Enter
Linux: Super+e, "record", Space, Space, <arrows>, Enter

The process is highly visual on both, so you're getting feedback about whether you're about to hit the right character, or not.

(And like, if you have the file, you can always ^C ^V the character, if say you don't know how to IME, or you don't know what the name of the char is, etc.…)

Wow! I had no idea you could set data format on legacy text columns during import. I had thought the column preview was just that- not a selectable radio button that you can then apply column data formatting to.

Recording conversations is not the same as plotting a kidnapping.
For me it is the speed of update, I posted an outage on our own status a good 15m before they did on their status. I had to email them before I got an ACK.
As does for India's state sanctioned network. Processes 400M transactions a day at a meagre operating revenue of 0.5M USD but still at a 40% profit margin! The card industry has been gouging the world for decades now.
Even if it takes 10 meters to get the job done (in practice, ships will not be coming at the piers perpendicularly to the channel), that is far from rendering the channel impassable.

Secondly, I believe riprap would be preferred to compacted soil (though compacted soil did a pretty good job stopping the Ever Given three years ago.)

Thirdly (and rendering the above moot), what's been done around the replacement Sunshine Skyway bridge in Tampa bay (mentioned in other posts here) shows that protection is, in fact, practical.

In view of these considerations, I'm not even going to check if, for example, xoa considered the energy absorbed by the ship (Update: in fairness, I did take a look at what xoa wrote, and I see that it is you who has introduced the figure of 1000 J/M^3.)

modern mitigations have made exploits much more difficult, however researchers continue to find bypasses to these mitigations.

there are "classic" techniques to bypass most of the modern protections and if there isn't then researchers often come up with novel attacks / bypasses. for example for heap protections you can see how2heap to bypass heap protections[0]. another example is an exploit which allows bypass of KASLR (which has since been patched)[1]. it looks like this exploit comes up with a "dirty pagetable" technique[2].

it's always a game of cat and mouse with more mitigations always being added while researchers constantly look to bypass them.

Normally you should not see any bit flips, because they happen at intervals of several months or even less frequently, depending on location.

Only for some old modules, e.g. 5-years old or older, the frequency of errors can increase a lot, even up to many bit flips per day, which means that the offending module must be replaced.

This feature of identifying the aged modules is one of the main benefits of ECC.

I have not looked again at the AMD EDAC driver, which has been updated during last year, but previously, a couple of years ago, its feature of injecting errors for testing was broken on Ryzen (because it had not been updated since Bulldozer, at that time), so the only method to verify that error reporting is working was to overclock the memory in the BIOS settings, to ensure that errors will be generated. Obviously, for the test one should boot from read-only media, to avoid the corruption of the storage in the case of excessive errors.
I think it also has a weird effect on how you save money. I have been broke before and worked for < $15/hr from the ages of 16-25, but I came from a middle class family and always had the mindset that I would someday have money.

I think being raised poor imbues you with the opposite mentality, that you will inevitably end up being broke. This has played out a few times in front of my eyes when friends from poor families come into a windfall and burn through it within a few months. It was like they subconsciously knew they would wind up broke again so why not?
A latent risk for sure, but this is being handled like an urgent risk because everybody's CI is lighting up. But it's not an urgent risk. So I do not think the system is working as it is intended, although it's hard for me to know exactly what the full intent here. (Since the resulting behavior is likely a confluence of several different systems, so I'm not sure there is one single coherent "intent" per se.)
It's absolutely bonkers to grant any app permission to this kind of information, even if the claimed use is legitimate. Just the normalization of that kind of access is causing damage to the overall security of the ecosystem.

We really, really need to come up with a better "proof-of-stake" mechanism standard for spam prevention and authentication, than abusing the legacy peering complexity of SMS/WWAN access.

I enjoy manual labor and I wish it was easier to get paid for it. I find cognitive work more pleasant and satisfying when I devote part of my time to external physical effort, which forces me to focus my mind outward instead of on abstractions.

It seems to me (reading your other comments) that your issue is not with manual labor per se but the capitalistic system that devalues it and gives many manual laborers as little autonomy as possible.

Explain why it's cheating? I'm a designer. I have been for over a decade. I don't use Canva, but I use Sketch, Figma, etc., and create templates or utilize templates made by others as starting places.

How is Canva any different than this? Part of design is being able to recognize what good design is, and utilizing the tools available to you. If Canva get the job done, and looks good, and has been sufficiently modified to meet the specified criteria supplied in the assignment or spec, how is it cheating?

The only way I could see is if they didn't modify the slides and part of the assignment was to create a unique branded slide presentation and they just used an out of the box design. In which case, no design work was done.

Someone shouldn't be penalized for the outcome based on the tools utilized unless the spec specifically excludes it.

It's like telling a clothing e-commerce company that they shouldn't use Shopify. If the work is done, why waste your time building an e-commerce site from scratch if it meets the specified need?

Canva is a great tool, and saves my clients thousands of dollars, while I get to avoid doing the completely mind numbing process of working in PowerPoint or designing social media posts. It's a win/win.
People don't 'tell' themselves they are poor and stuck. People learn they are poor and stuck when that has been their experience from their youth.

Some people's circumstances are a result of systemic racism that has kept them from succeeding. Some people have been deliberately kept from better jobs, better schools, and better neighborhoods. Some people have consistently bad experiences from the power structure.

Possibly it could be argued that many of these barriers can be overcome in the modern age but that is a questionable assertion and the experiences of one's parents and grandparents is not easily overlooked.

> Now that junk tech debt is suddenly rated “AAA”.

I think by "suddenly", the author is saying it doesn't make sense for the same code to have a better debt rating when vendored than it did before. But that's only looking at the value of the code itself, which misses the most important part of the total value proposition.

When a maintainer vendors code in, the maintainer owns that code now. If you're an active maintainer vendoring in code from a dead project, you are increasing the value of that code because now there is an active human who may respond to issues, review pull requests, and fix bugs.

By another analogy, giving a neglected pet to a new owner increases the value of the pet because it will be better taken care of, healthier, live longer, etc.

MA57 is a sparse symmetric solver. IPOPT uses this because it solves a modified KKT system that includes both the Hessian and constraint information simultaneously. This differs from composite step methods, which split the optimization step into a step for feasibility (quasi-normal step) and a step for optimality (tangential step). An algorithm like NITRO uses a composite step method and as a result uses a different kind of linear system solver.

That is, in fact, an argument brought up by Assange's lawyers in the recent appeal. I know I've seen this brought up elsewhere as well, here is from Craig Murray:

'The point of foreseeability had not been countered. There was no effort made to counter it. In 2010 it could not have been foreseen that publication would bring espionage charges against the publisher. It had never happened before. Encouraging a whistleblower to produce documents was definitely not unprecedented. That was an absurd claim. It was everyday journalistic activity, as witnesses had testified. No witnesses had been produced to say the opposite.'

Not without problems, but the people, the learning, the flowers, the maths and the holding hands, hard to imagine better, if we’d just get out of our own way.
re: ... in general is a good thing to do for the world
The advantage of buying RAM with XMP presets is that the reseller who created the preset has tested the sticks with that overclock and binned the original chips accordingly. When you buy RAM that is only rated for the default speed (as ECC server RAM is), you have no guarantee that all sticks will overclock the same amount, so in the worst case one stick will bring all the other sticks down to its level.
Yes, it would be possible. You'd have to make sure the character didn't appear / no escaping at all was present, which the data may or may not allow.

Might as well just get a dedicated CSV→USV converter, though.

Hands down one of the best AI demos I have seen. Last time I got a wow feeling like this was when ChatGPT was released.

Yep! Fully agreed with all your points, I was just trying to get at the original poster's line of thinking.
I always felt like N64 games were doing way too much to look good on the crappy CRTs they were usually hooked up to. The other consoles of the era may have had more primitive GPUs, but for the time I think worse may have actually been better, because developers on other platforms were limited by the hardware in how illegible they could make their games. Pixel artists of the time had learned to lean into and exploit the deficiencies of CRTs, but the same tricks can't really be applied when your texture is going to be scaled and distorted by some arbitrary amount before making it to the screen.
Yes, this is true, they often do invest internally to create their own tools.

We believe however that we offer better tools at a cheaper price and can get it into their hands now!

The problem is not just the analogy but the names were changed to protect the guilty parties adding further obfuscation. Though the links are correct and you can follow the bouncing ball a little easier replacing the fake names in the article with the real names from the links:

stuff -> insta

learned-rust-this-way -> yaml-rust

to default/defaulted -> serde-yaml

As I read it: insta was depending on yaml-rust. RUSTSEC issued an advisory against yaml-rust. Some shade is thrown on yaml-rust for being unmaintained and basically a student project of someone learning the language for the first time, adding to the irony/brittleness of its unmaintained (though still working) state and now the RUSTSEC callout. In insta trying to switch to some alternative to yaml-rust the next most common library serde-yaml preemptively announced its unmaintained status. So insta just vendored yaml-rust and called it a day, which currently works to remove the RUSTSEC complaints but doesn't fix the long term maintenance problem.

I of course disagree with that statement, but it would imply that some women _can_ make good decisions.
