Those trig identities were tremendously useful throughout Calculus. Having them readily accessible in memory was very helpful, from what I recall. Why do you think this pre-calc teacher was “stupid”?
China certainly would win from America going into civil war.

It would be wise for American elites to focus on fixing the causes of unrest, but instead they use corporate media to blame the people for their distrust of the establishment.

Interestingly, the same corporate media pushed the narrative that the George Floyd riots were about police brutality. This is only true in a facile sense, the video was the catalyst. The major causes were intense psychological stress from unprecedented lockdowns, economic implosion, and incessant fear of the virus. In a form of ideological judo they redirected all the anger and angst that had been building up towards a scapegoat. A classic trick rulers use on the ruled.
Sean and Kelby do a much better job of describing what LLL is, but this is maybe the best explanation of why LLL is that I've ever read. In all three cases, you only need basic linear algebra, if that (Kelby wants you to grok Gram-Schmidt, which is like just before the midterm of an undergrad linear algebra 101).

There are more managed langauges than Go, Java, and C#. Swift (and Objective C with ARC) are a bit different in that they don't use mark and sweep/generational GCs for automatic memory management so it's significantly less of an issue. Compare with Lua, Python, JS, etc where there's a serialization boundary between the two.

But I stand by what I said. It's generally unwise to mix the two, particularly calling unmanaged code from managed code.

I wouldn't say it's "not a problem" because there are very few environments where you don't pay some cost for mixing and matching between managed/unmanaged code, and the environments designed around it are built from first principles to support it, like .NET. More interesting to me are Graal and WASM (once GC support lands) which should make it much easier to deal with.

> I'm looking for a math tutor. I'd love to ask questions during the week that I don't need an immediate answer to. I think it'll take about 1 hour per week for you. I have noticed I'll need one after the wiskunde B course because I have asked about 100 questions to them in total over the duration of 4 months.

I used to tutor math (10 years ago), but would be happy to provide some asynchronous help if you like. Time permitting of course. Let me know how I can help.

Math background: Have completed and done well in all math courses I’ve taken, thru graduate level Chaos Theory (last math class I took).

Local is anything but boring. It’s the main political sphere you can personally influence. It’s not unusual for a local candidate to win by a handful of votes, maybe people you personally persuaded. Local candidates are also far less polished than national ones, so you get all sorts of characters.

Local politics is what decides your school board, police, and zoning regulations. There may be small time corruption and things often get heated.

Maybe the reason local politics seems boring is because local media is largely hollowed out and acquired by huge national corporations like Grey Media Group. Local TV news has become sports, weather and crime mostly.
I have some fun habits to "idiot-proof" things. If I'm paying for something with my credit card, I keep my wallet out until my card is back in it. If I'm cooking something on the stove, the kitchen light and the exhaust fan must be on.

So at any moment, if my wallet is out, I know I must think about my card before I put my wallet back in my purse. And if the kitchen light is on or I hear the fan, I must check the stove regularly.

I have a couple friends who constantly lose phones or wallets, and I simply don't.

It's not intuitive to program but what's worked for me in software is, simply do _everything_ on every tick, and make sure the loop always ticks. Anything you can't do in tick, has to be made into an async task somehow and monitored every frame. Even up to a thousand tasks, "Is this still running? Should I stop it? Should I start it?" is a very cheap question to ask. I believe this is how some embedded folks code, like for a furnace controller.

A lot of multi-threading and TOCTOU vulns also seem to come down to "What if just one thread of yours froze for 60 seconds between any two atomic operations?" If I do something like create a file and then set permissions on it, it feels like it's fast. But actually, an attacker only needs one time slice where the permissions are wrong to get in. Luckily I don't work in security, so I just do my best.
> Also important to note that if you get paid (a proper wage) while apprenticing, you're quite lucky already.

>There are plenty of occupations with apprenticeships where you do not get paid until you've got your foot firmly in the hallway past the door. For example, anything related

A good friend of mine was an apprentice union welder when we were younger. His hourly wage was quite good at that time, easily comparable to my tech wage with around the same experience. However, because of the union seniority, whenever there were work shortages, he was the first one cut. He'd regularly spend 1/4 to 1/3 of the year unemployed.
I had a film professor who told us that he thought Casablanca should be #1 on AFIs list of the best films. Citizen Kane is a masterpiece of cinematography, but otherwise I think it’s kind of weird. Casablanca is beautiful, complex, and approachable.

Yeah I've heard that the reason artificial sweetener makes people fatter instead is that the body feels robbed when they don't get the supposed caloric intake they should get when eating something sweet. So they crave more.

I actually do feel it, I still feel hungry if I eat lots of something that has little caloric value. So eating lots of vegetable and water doesn't fool my body into satisfaction.

Having recently rewatched it. I think the only thing I somewhat objected to was the use of gauze filters to soften the close-ups of Bergman as they felt jarring in relation to the other cinematography. It was popular at the time, but I feel like it has aged poorly. Other than that, what a movie it is. Looking forward to when I again (inevitably) watch it again.
The term "modeling" probably means different things in different research domains. I would expect on the one hand an effort to describe the conjectured dynamics with some detail and on the other hand a quantification and validation of the model/hypothesis with empirical (historical) data.

Admittedly both are extremely challenging tasks: human society is maybe the most complex system we know and we seem very far from adequate modeling in the above sense.

This is not to imply that the phenomena identified and discussed are not relevant factors towards a societal "crisis" but they feel more like a partial collection of hunches and analogies which may or may not be capturing the relevant societal dynamics to a meaningful degree.

There are reasons to be concerned though. Underlying the theatricality and subjectivity and collective mind games that drive political and economic behaviors there is the physical reality of the anthropocene and its no longer negligible environmental impacts.

Its not unreasonable to conjecture that as ad-hoc and capricious social arrangements hit hard external constraints there will be some unavoidable "adjustments". Whether these will unfold as an out-of-control societal collapse or just another chapter of human history remains to be seen.

We should not discount the extreme sophistication and resources available to modern societies. Eventually we may even develop a model of society, though its not clear if it will include the impact of there being a model :-)
That's kind of a political question. Politicians set the rules of engagement, which dictate the level of confirmation required before employing weapons. It's a spectrum. At one end of the spectrum a certain area can be designated as a free-fire zone in which any airborne contact is assumed to be hostile. In the middle of the spectrum it may be required to use data links and IFF to avoid firing on friendly or neutral aircraft. And at the other end of the spectrum, visual confirmation may be required.
The genius of social media as an information control mechanism is that it gives people the illusion that they can speak and influence others. In reality, they are just yelling into a void.

Unless you are a major internet personality, few people will see your posts. The scale of your reach will be too small to matter, or only filtered back to those who already agree with you, producing little social change from the dialogue.
We’ve been chipping away at institutions and authority since the 1970s (e.g the Tinker case). As a kid in the 1990s, I got a heavy dose of “question authority” and “think for yourself.” I’m not sure what folks were expecting to happen, but I think this is how we got MTG and Alex Jones.

If there's no financing contingency identified in the contract, and the buyer can't come up with the cash to close, then the buyer forfeits whatever deposit or earnest money they paid.
I kind of agree with the shame thing. It is a problem and puts people at risk of this sort of extortion. On the other hand, what's the alternative? Without shame or laws, would we end up with a lot of public exhibitionism? Would that be fine because nobody has any strong feelings about it? If society became like that, would it devalue sex and reduce many people's enjoyment of it? I suppose one advantage is that sexual abuse of children would be nearly impossible by definition, and in practice because those children would themselves already be desensitized to it. Perhaps this is one of those difficult areas where personal freedom impacts general long term wellbeing of society in a subtle and vague way.
The little area at the far right end of the Windows taskbar with the clock and tiny icons was referred to officially by Microsoft as the "notification area".

But enough people mashed Ctrl+Alt+Del in Windows 9x, saw a process called "Systray", and figured out that it controlled the notification area that eventually the area became known as the "system tray", even in non-Windows environments like Linux DEs.

The "system tray" was supposed to be a pop-out thing that resembled a shallow drawer (hence the "tray" name) and have some of the functions of the taskbar, but it was abandoned early in Windows 95's development. The Systray.exe program which was repurposed was the last vestige of that name and it kind of stuck. I think even Microsoft have given up on getting people to say "notification area". The "system tray" terminology is official in other environments like XFCE.

Used it for a couple of months and actually had better perf and responsiveness than X11 on my Lenovo X1 Carbon with Intel graphics. For me, I eventually got too much of a wrist pain from my mouse scroll wheel scrolling incredibly slow. On X11 it is fixable using the imwheel utility, but for Wayland i concluded from several GitHub issue threads that nobody can agree on where the fix should be done. (This was a year ago or so, so don’t know if it has been fixed since).

What strikes me about the popular feed now is how negative it's become. Almost every post is designed to provoke outrage in some way, which I suppose guarantees more participation. It's becoming a poison, so I spend more time on this site where the reactions to events are much more measured.

When you own a company, you can direct that company to pay you.

There are many names for the payments to owners, such as "dividend", "loan", "draw", etc. None of these payments are suspicious if both you and your business account for them properly.

You don't need to disguise payments to owners as wages or 1099s, but you're free to do so if for some reason it's advantageous. But don't do it just for the appearance of legitimacy.
Gell-Mann Amnesia effect

> You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well. In Murray's case, physics. In mine, show business. You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect. I call these the "wet streets cause rain" stories. Paper's full of them.

> In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read.

I genuinely don't understand this comment.

First, the difference between "bad things" and "atrocities" is the extent or severity.

Second, everything I've seen indicates people did not know a lot of what was going on.

The internet was not a thing. News was being gotten via short videos prior to movies at the movie theater. It was significantly delayed compared to news these days.

Soldiers were shocked at what they found when they liberated concentration camps.

A game was created to explain to modern peoples or demonstrate how this could be engineered while keeping most participants in the dark. People delivering train loads of people to concentration camps didn't know the full story.

> Reaching 64 bools might be a bit crazy, but 4-8 seems reasonably attainable from each of many arguments being an Option<T>, where the packing would reduce needed register/stack slot count by ~2

I don't have a strong sense of how much more common owned `Option` types are than references, but it's worth noting that if `T` is a reference, `Option<T>` will just use a pointer and treat the null value as `None` under the hood to avoid needing any tag. There are probably other types where this is done as well (maybe `NonZero` integer types?)

You may already know this, but I thought it's worth clarifying in case someone gets the wrong idea: LLM models themselves cannot "get out of their EC2 instances". The code that runs inference on the models may be programmed to execute arbitrary code or use tools in response to special tokens. That tool-use code should be programmed and operated on the assumption that the LLM output is adversarial and sandbox the code executions accordingly.

It's the same idea as "don't inject user-provided strings directly into SQL queries". In every system you should keep track of the bits that are user input and treat that data as dangerous. The only difference with LLMs is that a lot of naive programmers forget that the LLM is itself untrusted.
