Are you in Ukraine doing your duty? If you are not Ukrainian they do take volunteers.

Surrender is an option, none of those things is worse than death. I would not make that trade. If the Ukrainian men want to stop it they can still volunteer, so can anyone else. And it looks like they will lose the war anyway, so they’ll have to surrender anyway except now after a huge amount of death and destruction. Ukraine is heavily indebted and the belief that some Marshal plan reconstruction would enable them to pay that off is unrealistic.
Hashes can change regularly due to metadata. Source checks may also require some filtration or preprocessing before comparison. Visual comparison is the best option here, especially if you have a complex document with multiple third-party components that may change both the hash and source but keep the visual appearance the same.

I think it is hard to make a for profit general purpose language today; if you by that you mean that the developers directly pay for it. The business model has moved on; and builders for languages / platforms have found other ways of charging people.
You're so stuck in your line of thinking. How about you run an API and host the client in a native app? Problem solved. How about you don't run sshserver. Problem solved.
Reminds me of the credit card sized (literally [1]) USB stick I still have somewhere but it was too annoying to carry around and hope that next time that cheap stick still works...

Using the phone directly still seems the cleanest and most reliable way. Or maybe a combination of both, like those magnetic plugs [2] but with an integrated USB stick. Bonus points if you don't have to take it out at all (until needed) by either connecting the other magnetic part for data transfer and charging or data through USB OTG and wireless charging. One can dream... but the technology will shrink even further so who knows.

Another option is to compare the two files visually in a simple GUI, using the --view argument:

$ diff-pdf --view a.pdf b.pdf

This opens a window that lets you view the files' pages and zoom in on details. It is also possible to shift the two pages relatively to each other using Ctrl-arrows (Cmd-arrows on MacOS). This is useful for identifying translation-only differences.
Reducing Racial and Ethnic Bias in AI Models
Thoughts on Zig? Just not popular enough to fit the bill or are there technical reasons?

I bring it up partially because they are not taking a "rewrite it in Zig" approach, they are specifically aiming for incremental migration in mixed C / Zig codebases.
Arweave has a compelling design for long-term public archival along these lines, with an explicit concept of 'endowment' to predictably cover the costs of future storage.
Yeah, wasn't thinking about actually building it out, just mocking it out and taking into consideration to allow for it as you build out browser. So much easier to plan for rails, rather than foist into something later on.

The tax stuff is all public record - easily verifiable. Deaths are also generally publicly verifiable.

The rest of the stuff would essentially require intentional fraud by the seller. You’d be able to recoup most of those costs via court. Annoying for a private individual, but I tolerable as part of a portfolio.

I’ll be real, you can pretty quickly tell the type of person you’re dealing with in a home sale. The people who have a tendency to “trash their title” also show other signs of untrustworthiness during the transaction.

As someone who works for a company with a product that can be both self-hosted and used as a SaaS, SaaS is where its at.

When you use a SaaS solution, you are taking on risk, sure, but you are able to move much faster. There's no servers to set up and, more importantly maintain. By outsourcing of lot of operational complexity, your team can focus on building unique differentiated features and marketing them.

I love self-hosting and think you can learn a lot by operating your own infra. For certain use cases (really small apps, personal software, stable state) it can make sense. But I feel like SaaS is becoming the default and is definitely 'the future'.

It may be unlawful, and it may fail because lower level officers refuse. But it seems like in that case the president cannot be charged. Lower level officers that go along with it could, but the president has the ability to pardon them.

So even if I some case they fail, there are no consequences so people can try again.

Yes there is also political considerations, but if the president feels confident enough to plan assainations of a rival, or for instance a coup with others in the executive branch, then he must feel he has that handled.

Depends on your own sensitivity to latency and slowdown accuracy. A lot of casual players won't notice, but conversely a lot of enthusiasts will.
Radially might be the wrong word; I thought for a while about it. You’re correct, your goal is to present a target that is moving from the perspective of the shooter. Ideally not moving at a constant angular velocity.

A few months back I spent a couple of hours writing a binary TM simulator (yes I know you can download them - I wanted to write one) and then spent a couple of weeks running various TMs for days on end...

They exhibit quite bizarre amounts of complexity for what are really simple structures - indeed some TMs have apparently been observed employing Collatz conjecture type behaviour.

I think one of the general takeaways about ML is that barring a few experts, its really challenging to reason about your system. Like, yes, you might expect that a convolutional layer will behave in a specific way under ideal conditions, but the way that behavior manifests is often wildly hard to predict during the early days.

I agree that step 1 for most beginner projects should be to start with something that works and then tweak.

I think a big part of the problem is that Campaign for North Africa is a badly designed wargame, in the sense that it's not abstracted enough.

One of its flaws is that it makes you, in the role of the commander (or one of five commanders, anyway), keep track of:

> "[If using the full rules] every individual plane and pilot in the three year campaign."

This is madness! A real commander wouldn't keep track of this, so why must the player? This level of zoom-in is typical of tactical wargames, where it makes sense, but it's nonsense for traditional "cardboard" grand strategy wargames without computer assistance. So it makes total sense that playing this would take more than the actual Campaign for North Africa, since in the real deal those commanders wouldn't track every individual plane.

I don't think this was made to be actually played, and I struggle to believe anyone has actually finished it, regardless of some internet claims.

I remember seeing C on CP/M circa 1984, the Z80 had compiled BASICs, multiple Pascal implementations including Turbo Pascal although assembly was common. It was still common by the late 1980s on the 8086 platform.
no one mentions rolldown by the author of vue and vitejs?
Partly true.

If you're writing library code that someone else might use, you don't have much need to understand the features you don't use, unless you have to handle them at the interface. If you're debugging your own code, you really shouldn't have to understand features that you didn't use. (Mostly - see the next paragraph.)

You did say "intentionally". You could wind up using a feature unintentionally, but it's not very common, because most of the new features are either in a new library (which you have to explicitly call), or a new syntax. There are definitely exceptions - I could easily see you using a move constructor without meaning to.

Maintaining someone else's code... yeah. You have to understand whatever they used, whether or not it made any sense for them to use.
"For profit" has many meanings. Most languages are invented to provide a certain kind of leverage that the author thinks is important in solving problems, and solving problems is usually financially profitable. How exactly that profit is achieved, by what business model, varies over time.

Four that are definitely worth learning about as their inventors and contexts are super interesting and a lot of material is available

Alan Kay, Smalltalk

Bjarne Stroustrup, C++

Brad Cox, Objective C

Rich Hickey, Clojure

I would add that JetBrains, the business, has been incredibly and for many very surprisingly successful at being a for profit programming tools company that now has invented their own language variant (Kotlin). Very interesting story.

You probably should look at single mothers' statistics.

> I bet it wins out in the market entirely thanks to that graphic.

That's why aesthetics are so critical. Logos are a big deal, but few people want to spend money on a real commercial artist, designing one.

It's probably the most important graphic that a corporation will ever have, and often looks ridiculously simple (at least, the good ones do).

I used to work for GE, and we had a whole set of binders, instructing us on the proper use of the GE "Meatball" logo.

Aesthetics also goes into things like UX design. Branding is a really holistic endeavor, and many techies don't get that, at all.

Isn't that why they recommend for people to get a dog? You have to walk them every day, and dogs enjoy a brisk walk!, and they help with stress.

I'll put it this way - I don't have any problems closing my exercise ring on my Apple Watch just by walking my dog and I walk at a pace that keeps my heart rate at 120 bpm and above. Add in some push-ups, wall sits, step lifts, crunches, and planks (in other words - any so-called "7-minute workout"), and you're set!

Just looking at their benchmarks, it's not particularly fast. es-build looks much better in benchmarks, but it's not written in Rust. It seems they wanted a tool in Rust just-because (experience on the team, preference foe the language...), and then only compared against those.

As for the language "based on Rust", it's likely bad wording due to them not being native English speakers.
I’m disappointed in the fact that the main ambition here is only to recreate a browser for the sake of independence. There is so much potential in creating a modern browser that could for instance focus on performance, privacy, access to lower level APIs, etc. rather than carrying the eternal burden of backwards compatibility.
Proving theory of mind in LLMs is certainly one step toward recognizing that they are well on the path of acquiring "human-like" intelligence - if there are still people around who doubt that (proof of which would be if the ensuing discussion centers around if this is still just guessing the next token or whether hallucinations are proof of permanent unintelligence, etc).

Theory of mind is obviously coupled with the recognition that we can be outsmarted - so this type of research is crucial in order to gauge what stage we are on.

RAND was literally founded to figure out how to wage nuclear war. It evolved after Vietnam. Particularly in the 50s and early 60s, the firm was the brain of the Air Force, period.

In that era, several of the principals fully expected that there would be a nuclear exchange in the 60s or 70s.

You're right but this isn't a conscious calculation - its deeply rooted, evolved behavior. It evolved because of the dynamic you described. Its the same reason women left the Titanic first, men are more likely to task risks, the Y chromosome has a higher mutation load and a million other things.

What is the scope of these "core" powers? During times of war, the Commander in Chief directs military maneuvers etc. in active theatres of combat. At all times he directs readiness and training.

I wouldn't say that the history and tradition of the office is to have Delta Force manufacture artistic pottery cups for children to drink milk from while at school. That action in that time and place would not seem to fall within the role of Commander in Chief (regardless of his intent / subjective belief that the use of fine porcelain may provide some tactical advantage).
The Seal Team 6 example keeps getting batted around and that's unfortunate because it would be an extreme and obviously outrageous attack which would attract much unwanted attention.

Part of the ruling was that conversations between DOJ and President constitute the President's official duties and "therefore" (per the three judges appointed by Trump, one who expressed sympathies with Jan 6 rioters, and yet another whose wife was an active endorser and planner of aspects of the coup) those conversations are protected and cannot be entered as evidence in a criminal proceeding against the President.

The more insidious outcome is that the President can now, because these conversations are official, officially order the AG to investigate and prosecute political opponents.

Maybe some court can review it on down the line, years later. Given the number of judges appointed by Trump, maybe not. Either way, the federal government and rule of law was massively, severely crippled yesterday by the Supreme Court

I mean, why would you ever prefer to post-increment an integer whose prior value you didn't need? Not enough time studying iterators to make that distinction obvious, perhaps? Regardless, the context here is that we should stop relying so much on the compiler to paper over differences in code that don't by the user anything except a form of quaint familiarity with old code: the i++ relies on the optimizer knowing it doesn't have to keep the prior value, while ++i doesn't, and yet somehow I guess you are enamored with i++ despite it being exactly the same characters to type, merely in a different order. Stop using int, stop using post-increment, and sure: maybe even stop using < when you semantically want != (though I explicitly didn't go there because that isn't--as far as I know--going to affect the performance with a dumber compiler).

> As for SEAL Team 6, they have a "duty to disobey" unlawful orders[1]-- which every member of the team probably knows off the top of their heads-- and which is a much more effective real-time check on a president's authority.

This is an incredibly flimsy check on power:

- What if the president uses a drone strike instead?

- What if the president staffs the military (and seal team 6) with loyalists?

- What if the president uses this power to threaten and extort officials into doing his bidding?
