better option is to leave privacy as is. You basically trade a dream of catching criminals (that will switch to illegal tools to keep their data hidden) to a reality where govts,hackers and big corpos can get your data much easier and use it against you.
If you think there are better options, the solution is to cancel this privacy invading law and start discussing abt those better solutions instead of implementing a law that will hurt ppl by design by offering much more power to govs, corporations and much bigger surface attack for hackers

> Actually SPARC have four instructions that are directly meant for efficient implementation of Lisp/Smalltalk that came from SOAR and SPUR.

You are talking about the tagged add and subtract instructions, TADDcc/TSUBcc, and their trapping versions TADDccTV/TSUBccTV.

> Using that on top of some kind of Unix is shall we say problematic (in same way that x86 BOUNDS is mostly useless), together with few other “fast conditional trap” instructions in SPARC ISA, but it is there.

I've never tried using it, but why is it "problematic" on Unix? From what I understand, both on Solaris SPARC and Linux SPARC, the kernel translates the tag-overflow exception into a SIGEMT signal with si_code=EMT_TAGOVF, so you can catch the tag-overflow exception by installing a SIGEMT handler. On Linux SPARC, I think SIGEMT is only used for tag-overflow, whereas on Solaris it also is triggered by CPU performance counter overflow (EMT_CPCOVF)

I think TADDccTV/TSUBccTV are problematic in the sense that they are officially deprecated, and only supported for 32-bit overflow, not 64-bit overflow. The docs say to use BPVS instead (so branch on overflow flag instead of trapping an overflow exception)

All that said, this all has very fading relevance now, given how moribund SPARC is. Oracle has no plans to introduce any further SPARC CPUs, the SPARC CPUs they currently sell were released 7 years ago, and I expect they'll stop selling them sooner or later. Fujitsu has announced they'll end SPARC server sales in 2029, which is only 5 years away now, and although they were at one point talking about one last CPU after the current M12 generation, I doubt that's still happening.

No, they are not typically complementary. The optimal solutions for powering a grid tend to either be all-nuclear or all-renewable (usually the latter now), depending on cost assumptions. Optimal solutions with a mixture are uncommon.
Python uses whitespace for scoping - not for logic. That said, the same is true for YAML.
The solution was an EU-wide plastic bottle deposit, this way, it pushes people to bring back intact bottles with their caps and get ~0.10 EUR back for each.

And if you are too lazy to bring it back or just a person who throws away stuff carelessly, someone else will do (big sorting centers as it's a big revenue-stream, the cleaners, the homelesses, some bored students, etc).

To not get cease & desist'd to hell, great effort is spent to make sure every bit of code introduced to ReactOS has been properly clean-room engineered. The Windows source code leaks specifically have made a great job to stall ReactOS development. Also the potential legal issues and making an enemy of MS makes it hard to get sponsors. Hence project is entirely developed by unpaid volunteers.
To be honest, all I've done was try the weekly challenges that the Unison team publishes on Twitter :D

I just like the very light syntax that it got from Haskell, but without the need for Monads and the "ugly" monad operators you need to juggle, replaced by abilities which IMHO are much more elegant.

They are focusing on writing cloud-services and apparently their offering is already pretty good, so if I ever need a clouse service I am tempted to use Unison (for anything not very critical, at least until I gain confidence in it): https://www.unison.cloud/our-approach/

And I love ucm and think it may be very close to what the future will look like (which is why I do agree it's ahead of our time). It's already possible to work with Unison but still have proper code review: https://www.unison-lang.org/docs/tooling/project-workflows/#...

Here's an example change: https://share.unison-lang.org/@unison/base/contributions/42/...

But currently, I believe you do need to pull the branch locally and then load diffs with ucm into your favourite diff tool to properly see what's been changed (which is not ideal , and I believe they are working on making this easier, we'll see).
Intelligence != experience. We are all aware of the very bright junior engineer that produces huge code volume and creates massive technical debt. It takes experience to go with the boring, simple approach.
Again when you dig into things some things are inherently extremely expensive like operating a lot of gas diffusion centrifuges.

You could cut fuel use in half if the thermal efficiency of nuclear increased to that of a combined cycle coal power plant. But having two water loops (or a liquid salt then water etc) inherently reduces the temperatures the second loop reaches compared to the primary loop. On top of this you want to stay well away from material limits for safety concerns. Net result the maximum Carnot efficiency is only like 45% and achieved efficiency is significantly lower than that.
> If you think it's ok to think Hitler or Goebbels are irrelevant, or that what they did doesn't matter then you are paving the way you will be sent down on to a camp yourself.

Just taking a feel of the political winds but - if I'm sent to a camp in my lifetime it will probably be by people calling me a Nazi. Assuming an internal group does it. It is a favoured insult right now. Although the odds are still comfortably low as far as I can tell.

And this is the issue. Privileging a hate-cult of Hitler and Goebbels is a distraction from the actual problems which are policies, capabilities and incentives. It doesn't seem to be an effective barrier to hate - in fact philosophically it encourages it over more useful focuses.
What’s the use of tracking waste if no efforts will be done to stop its production? Cleanups are nice and all but you gotta stop the bleeding where it starts. Maybe I’m being too cynical?

There's a multi-trillion dollar startup just waiting for you to solve that problem.
The same, it solves a marginal problem (people that throw away on the highway only the plastic caps, and somehow keep separate the bottle), in an absurd way that punishes all the nice users, again, just to solve a small % of very cases.

The guys who somehow enjoy throwing away plastic caps, will likely remove it anyway.

The same with the spying, all users will suffer, but those who want to work around it, will find a way.

The irony is that it makes driving more dangerous now, as you need two hands to drink from a water bottle.
https://www.sqlite.org/pragma.html#pragma_user_version

I use SQLite for game state management. It's just like any other database scenario. I write migrators that check the user_version of the database. It's just a for loop from user_version to current version. The migrators themselves can be arbitrary methods that sometimes modify game state to bring it up to date. The most common scenario is adding a new property to something, and then figuring out the appropriate defaults to assign for existing rows (typically null/0). But you can go all the way into the ETL rabbit hole.

I think the relational model via SQLite is the best way to manage state for the more complicated games like in the 4X and deck builder genres.
Wow amazing work! How does the inputs work, are they created for you or does it support custom as well?

It helps to state carefully what you are trying to achieve. I want a theorem prover where constructing numbers such that ℕ ⊂ ℤ is easy. Doing this in a theorem prover is not trivial, for example none of the type based theorem provers allow that (although, Isabelle/ZF might qualify; it is based on set theory on top of a weak intuitionistic type theory; but here ℕ and ℤ are not types, but sets of the same type). It is trivial though if you are a mathematician, no matter what you are working on. You know that these constructions can be done, and that as a result you can assume ℕ ⊂ ℤ (if you want to). So as long as your theorem prover doesn't support something as trivial as that, it is lacking.

And yes, that is exactly what Buzzard is talking about. For the case I am talking about here though, that is just table stakes: make sure your prover can do ℕ ⊂ ℤ ⊂ ℝ ⊂ ℂ. If you can do that, you can start worrying about more advanced issues of equality, and you might find that you have already solved a significant amount of them.
you have easiest ways to do a basic message queue. Kafka is overkill and it doesn't worth the overhead in simple escenarios.
Dito. "who has the power and money" is your answer to your question "why is UNESCO [sic] specifically concerned about LLMs diluting Holocaust facts, and not the significantly more important, current genocides taking place?"

It is not the only answer, and you know it. As other posters have already pointed out, the Holocaust is a pretty special event in history which makes it an excellent example of the potential dangers of revisionism through LLMs.
Enterprise customers can ask for different payment terms (bank transfer instead of credit card, 30/60/90 day payment goals), legal and security review, different termination periods, amendments to the standard contract, sometimes different currency. So it starts a discussion of their requirements. Some companies won't even tell you their requirements before signed NDAs were exchanged. Others require you to create an account at their finance system (SAP, Cisco, Oracle Financials and such).

Then depending how formal the customer is the reply can be a text email with a quote, a formal quote that looks almost like an invoice (PDF), or even a 10 page draft document for further discussion.

This might sound like a lot of extra work, something that can't easily be automated, but those companies are used to long sales processes. The product manager needs to liaison with their legal department, then with their accounting department.
"Request for quote" and "contact sales" are essentially the same.

Gen IV doesn’t mean anything specifically. No individual gen IV designs has every single advantage you see in any of those designs. You need to look at a specific designs in isolation as well as what trade offs are involved in that design.

“100-300x energy yield from the same amount of nuclear fuel”

That’s one of those things that sounds good in isolation, but ends up being more expensive. It’s just like CANDU reactors don’t need enrichment and can operate on natural uranium, but it turns out fuel costs drop by 20% when they started enriching the fuel.

Similarly LWR/HWR could make better use of their fuel if they could operate at higher temperatures, but that causes a world of other problems.

Unfortunately nuclear engineers aren’t dumb, they’re doing things for surprisingly solid reasons even if counter intuitive reasons.
That looks strange and requires more information. ReactOS devs in past have submitted patches in Wine, since ReactOS itself uses some parts from Wine.

Punish is a strong word, it slightly inconveniences all "the nice users".

It's really not that big of a deal honestly, you unscrew the bottle, flip the cap up (it kinda locks like that and stays out of your way in one of the designs I've seen, in the other it's just attached and can easily be kept out of the way with a finger), then you drink, I fail to see how you suddenly need two hands as opposed to before...
It’s „easier than ever” because of inflation alone. Doesn’t mean it’s easy.

At some point I wonder if its going to be viable to harvest ocean plastic, and use it to produce energy .. and every time I see one of my favourite remote-beach Youtubers climb over piles of plastic rubble on some remote tropical island, I can't help get the feeling that there has to be some kind of way to make a portable, self-replicating 3D printer that can go out there and just reproduce itself.

But I guess the chemistry behind all of this is beyond me. It sure seems like the 3D-printing revolution needs to be followed up with a plastics-deconstruction phase, so that 3D printers don't get factory-produced spools of future ocean-bound plastics, but rather a giant hopper into which one can pile collected plastics from the environment. Some sort of primordial proto-Feed, I guess ..

Whether you think the algorithms are bad or not depends on whether you see the algorithm as separate to the outcome of the algorithm. Algorithms are designed to surface content for maximum engagement, and the fact that they do this very well means they're objectively 'good'. The content they promote is (subjectively) pretty horrible, which means while the goal of the algorithm is might be fine, the outcome is bad.
These things are more-or-less proven, and so aren't sexy because they either work or there are better ways to do them.

I have a couple of datapoints.

One project I know of started with message queues for request response pattern. It performed poorly because Windows Service Bus writes messages to a database. That increased latency for a UI heavy application.

Second project used message queues but the front end was a HTTP API. When overloaded the API timed out at 30 seconds but the job was still in the queue and wasn’t cancelled. It led to a lot of wastage.
Black & white printers cannot implement the yellow dots at least and even with color printers it is not literally every one of them.

Chicago doesn't allow 5 over 1s. All those new 3-5 story buildings in Chicago are masonry (CMU) or steel frame curtain wall. I've watched some of them get built. Building out of CMU is cost effective and they can be combined with brick for facades (brick-and-block).

This should put to lie the idea that 5 over 1s are the only way cost-effective way to build. CMU construction is cheap it's just not quite as cheap as timber frame, and developers will always choose the cheapest technique they're allowed to use.
No, obviously.
Yep, it's automated, but not through the bank. I had to go through the PSD2 and register myself as a payment service provider for my personal account so that they don't charge me.

It is good that you are getting to understand how 'democracy' works.
From Wikipedia[0], admittedly:

> Most reactors began construction by 1974; following the Three Mile Island accident in 1979 and changing economics, many planned projects were canceled. More than 100 orders for nuclear power reactors, many already under construction, were canceled in the 1970s and 1980s, bankrupting some companies.

How does that square with your recollection? Or were lots of nuclear power plants being constructed in the 1980s, and the article is very wrong?

Cool. If you don't have a microscope and 3d printer than check out Laowa macro lenses. They are fairly affordable. Note that they are manual focus, auto focus is generally not very for macro photography.
Which is why we also need to look at the cost of the measures to non-criminals, which in this case is extremely high for most likely little gain.

Yeah, that sounds really strange. Not sure how it is elsewhere in Europe, but in Finland whoever builds it, maintains it. Intercity road and rail networks are all owned and managed by the state, and that’s actually how the equivalents of "road" and "street" are defined within the field: anything owned by the state is a road, anything owned by the municipality is a street.

In recent years there have been plans to "boulevardize" some major arterials within city boundaries, meaning the city takes over responsibility of the road segment and turns it into a street with lower speed limits, multimodal access, and so on. The intention is, of course, to facilitate urban development in the corridor.
Calling someone a Nazi is the the favourite thing Nazi copycats do. Reminding of what Hitler and lots of Germans (and Austrians) did is not practicing cultish behaviour, it is a vaccine against those who want a repeat of what had happened.
There is something weird about EU approach to online child protection. They project themselves as being hell-bent on solving the problem, yet, as with the US with the Jeffrey Epstein case, they are curiously inactive when it comes to prosecution of pedophiles. As if they're keen to find them, but not so keen to lock them up. WTF do they do with these pedophiles once they find them? Promote them to public office so they can be extorted and controlled? It doesn't add up.

Seems like there is something weird about EU and pedophilia. Coincidentally, it seems as if the EU is operating under the thumb of a foreign power. After being involved in the tech sector there, it has been a recurring theme. I never heard about that stuff when working for US tech companies. In other countries, they also handle the problem but they don't constantly virtue-signal about it. Also when I was in the crypto space working on EU-backed projects, I heard rumors that some of the founders had been victims (or maybe also the other way? Like a cult) I inferred that they were being extorted. When I read conspiracy theories about that sort of stuff, it oddly resonates with some of my experiences in the tech sector when you get close to the big money and big politics.

The increase of popularity of conspiracy theories and the recurring theme of pedophilia is also starting to seem suspicious.
