> I think that depends on what you meany by "pattern matching"

Oh, yes, that's true. "Pattern matching" as that what normally is used in "functional programming languages". This kind of pattern matching does not need unification.
The IMHO best (correct, but understandable and with all needed definitions) explanation of it is in chapters 4 "STRUCTURED TYPES AND THE SEMANTICS OF PATTERN-MATCHING" and 5 "EFFICIENT COMPILATION OF PATTERN-MATCHING" of Peyton Jones et al., "The implementation of functional programming languages".

> In programming cirlces "pattern matching" usually means matching strings.

Depends on the "circle" ;)

There are two incredibly common wrong assumptions made about pumped storage:

* It doesnt exist. Nobody says this outright of course but solar and wind skeptics often choose to "assume" that only more expensive lithium ion batteries can store power generated by solar or wind and "forget" about pumped hydro, being up to 3x cheaper.

* The geography for it is rare. The geography for hydroelectric dams which can also be used as pumped storage IS rare, because undammed dammable rivers are not common. However, for pumped storage it's not the case.

In both cases there are certain lobbies whom I think have a vested interest in perpetuating these false assumptions - the same way false assumptions about, say, wind turbines and bird deaths are perpetuated by people like Trump.

The modern Republican Party has a large contingent of rebadged Dixiecrats.

As for Iowa, there had never been slavery in what we think of as the Midwest--north of the Ohio River and of Missouri. However, the Dred Scott decision put it into question whether the states could maintain that status. I imagine that to have been a motivator for Midwesterners who did not wish to compete with slave labor.

Exploits only ever get better. Today's possible is next month's done.
Most pumped hydro is short-ish term storage and at full capacity runs from full to empty within 10-20 hours. And in a new development there's nothing really stopping you from putting in more pipes and generators so you can get the full energy out in half the time if that makes more economic sense.

Conceptually they are like batteries, just with the ability to scale max discharge rate and max capacity somewhat independently, a much lower cost per MWh stored, but high engineering complexity because each site needs a bespoke solution.

Of course there are some projects that just go for huge storage and few generators. Sometimes they serve another purpose and just have generators as a side benefit. And sometimes they don't make a lot of sense and seem to just be built that way to be more impressive

If you use version control platforms, you're probably creating issues/tickets and use tags. Use many, many tags. You can then have stats and notice where most of your effort goes.

For example, you can use tags like "compatibility", "dependency", etc... Basically, words that describe the red herrings and why you're working on the codebase.

While I'm at (free) books: a great example implementation of unification (in Lisp) is in chapter 11 "Logic Programming" of Peter Norvig's "Paradigms of Artificial Intelligence Programming: Case Studies in Common Lisp".

There are no really a reason beside money.

Why? Because in my experience it is impossible to know how a job is going to be before I start on it. The stack can change, I could be put on another project, maybe the manager is toxic or the best person ever, hard to know without working there.

Unfortunely it is built on top of WinUI 3, with all the warts it entails.

The usual solution, including in safety critical systems, is to give the judge of the halting problem a stopwatch and a gun.

For example in an embedded system: a watchdog timer that you don't service during the execution of some context. If you fail to complete your task within the time, the kernel or entire system is rebooted.

For example in a VM-like system, you give the code some amount of "fuel" or "budget", if it exceeds that budget, the process/tasklet/whatever is terminated by the VM.

It's not a general solution to the halting problem, but a practical one.

> If it’s only Apple holding PWAs back, then why do most of the same companies write Android apps instead of just producing PWAs that work on PCs and Android devices?

Google followed Apple's lead, so it's not like they have a choice.

And in case you haven't noticed, those same companies are happy to accept the performance hit of cross-phone libraries in order to not develop an app twice. If the PWA experience were better, they'd probably try that instead.

Most apps are boring, and don't require native performance.
Root penetration of buried services is a serious problem. While roots generally chase water, they will surround and crush any services which get in the way.

I don't know... you might as well ask people who live near trees which ones are preferred by birds?? I know I have lots of trees around my house and I can clearly see which ones tend to attract birds, and which kinds of birds. And I am no expert... with a little training, people like me might be able to contribute floods of data.

But of course, that's not as cool as using lasers to scan trees and AI to analyse the data. And I admit that in the case of the Australian bush, there may not be enough people living in the affected areas to collect enough information, so perhaps this is in fact the way to go.

> personally I think we shouldn’t give mere words such power

I sort of get where you're coming from. You don't want to live in a world where speech can be sanctioned and censored for its own sake,. But I wonder if taking this view to its logical conclusion risks neglecting the fact that words do have power in our society. The "n-word" is offensive because its historical usage was intimately tied to the oppression of black people. As a consequence, black people today feel unsafe and hated if someone from those oppressors' background uses it (perhaps outside of extremely sensitive circumstances).

The question then is whether it's right sanction speech based on it making those people feel unsafe and hated. And in the UK we do; we have hate speech laws. By contrast, the US is relatively laissez-faire in what it allows legally, but - perhaps as a consequence - there are very strong, polarising cultural norms on speech.

Going back to Boris Johnson's speech. In an article criticising Tony Blair's focus on foreign policy, he writes:

> What a relief it must be for Blair to get out of England. It is said that the Queen has come to love the Commonwealth, partly because it supplies her with regular cheering crowds of flag-waving piccaninnies; and one can imagine that Blair, twice victor abroad but enmired at home, is similarly seduced by foreign politeness.

> They say he is shortly off to the Congo. No doubt the AK47s will fall silent, and the pangas will stop their hacking of human flesh, and the tribal warriors will all break out in watermelon smiles to see the big white chief touch down in his big white British taxpayer-funded bird. Like Zeus, back there in the Iliad, he has turned his shining eyes away, far over the lands of the Hippemolgoi, the drinkers of mares' milk. He has forgotten domestic affairs, and here, as it happens, in this modest little country that elected him, hell has broken loose.

The only defense Johnson provided here is that the quotes were "satirical" and "taken out of context". Reading them in context, I'm still perplexed as to why he employed derogatory slurs and invoke racist stereotypes. Perhaps he was saying that both the Queen and Tony Blair have a racist, paternalistic view of the commonwealth? I have definite doubts about this, as it's very unlike BoJo to take potshots at the Queen, and he himself apparently has a fondness for the colonial era (e.g. quoting a pro-imperialist Rudyard Kipling poem in a temple in Myanmar). Even if we grant him the satire defense, simply replacing "picaninnies" with "children" achieves the same effect without invoking crude stereotypes.

- Lean Analytics

In Lean Analytics, the "Part Two" is titled "Finding the Right Metrics for Right Now" where the author delves into analytics frameworks, then breaks it down by what kind of business you're in (models: e-commerce, SaaS, free mobile app, media site, etc...) and what stage you're in (empathy, stickiness, virality, revenue, and scale) and then how to drive these metrics.

In "Complet Web Monitoring", the author may have more answers to your question (nuts and bolts, implementation), as you may already be aware of your core metrics.

That is correct and that is also crucially why all these consent modals that have a second toggle for "legitimate interest" from partners are also blatantly non-compliant: you can only use ONE legal basis for processing and if consent is sufficient to opt out, that means it can not be "legitimate interest" as defined by the GDPR.

The definitions for all these exemptions are EXTREMELY narrow and court cases have demonstrated this repeatedly. If you have a legitimate interest to verify someone's ID to establish identity that does not mean you are allowed to do the ID verification yourself (rather than relying on a third party) nor that you're allowed to use a service outside the EU (e.g. Israel) nor that you (nor they) are allowed to store that ID any longer than necessary to process it exactly once.

The GDPR dictates data minimization. If your business model is incompatible with that and it's not because of regulatory requirements, I'm sorry but we have a word for that and it's "criminal enterprise".

One thing I do sometimes is to start part of an API in a TDD style. Everything starts very "basic", which adds a lot of relatively trivial test cases.

When done with that phase and my API looks relatively functional, I remove all relatively trivial tests and I write bigger ones, often randomized and property-based.

This works decently well and you do not have an army of useless tests there hanging after the process is done.

Let me give you a different perspective.

Imagine I make a serialisation/deserialisation library which would be vulnerable if you fed it untrusted data. This is by design, users can serialise and deserialise anything, including lambda functions. My library is only intended for processing data from trusted sources.

To my knowledge, nobody uses my library to process data from untrusted sources. One popular library does use mine to load configuration files, they consider those a trusted data source. And it's not my job to police other people's use of my library anyway.

Is it correct to file a CVE of the highest priority against my project, saying my code has a Remote Code Execution vulnerability?

Modern desktop GUI systems are incredibly complicated, in comparison, just to open the window, let alone put text on the screen.

I think not. Normally if you get those kinds of errors you wouldn’t get any output at all. In the blog I show that all 724 of the test cases got proper JSON output etc for the queries so I don’t think this was an issue. I think these kinds of topics would have been well covered in the training data, and probably the OSS models would have used similar data so I don’t even think there’s a disparity to be found between proprietary vs OSS models here.
