If a president is illegally mobilizing an army I'm not sure how this ruling would change anything? Do you think congress would be slower than courts to work this out? If a president was stopping congress from meeting then they could stop courts from meeting as well. Or he could just ignore the courts if it had really gotten that bad...
Funny you mention c#, I started to look at this and I made the mistake of wanting to do string comparison via SIMD, except you can't do it externally because it relies on private internals (note, the built in comparison for c# already does SIMD, you just can't easily reimplement it against the built in string type).

Sorry for oversimplifying, I was poking fun at the "consumption of whales who die in the anti aging processing" vs the "consumption of whales who die for the protein food source processing". Now that I explained it, I suppose it is no longer witty or funny.
We just established last week that obviously the bribe would come after the official act, making it a gratuity and thus free and clear of any whiff of wrongdoing.
> Congress does not have the authority to simply pass a law invalidating that. They did it, but it is most certainly not constitutional.

The ones that should judge if it's not constitutional just passed judgment stating that a ex-president is above the law. I think they can invalidate if a president explicitly needs declaration of war, given recent history I'd bet a lot they would find it totally constitutional.

> Systems always work to justify and perpetuate themselves

We have reformed our courts before in pursuit of seeking to perpetuate our American form of government. This is no different. Amending governments to make them more fit is not inherently in conflict with institutional prerogatives.

Honestly the problem is the standard of living of our workers is “too high”. Obviously that’s a good thing compared to some factory worker in Asia that works 12 hour days and then goes to sleep on a floor with 12 other people in the same room but if the American populace will not shell out for the pricier American goods then there really are no good solutions.
> this can’t really be fixed by individual countries.

This can't be fixed by most individual countries but there are a few individual countries that could do it. The US could easily do it, easily from a technical point of view that is; unfortunately it is politically impossible.
I recall that one of Rand's area of research was how a nation could survive a nuclear attack. They definitely nuclear hawks.

The USAF may get less of the budget as percentage of GDP but I'd wager the budget might equivalent in absolute terms since US economy is larger.

I think the real reason they have far fewer planes deployed is this: "The cost of acquiring and maintaining major posture components has tended to grow in real terms over time" [1] as a Rand Corporation report circa 1990 observed.

What kind of private internals do you have in mind? You absolutely can hand-roll your own comparison routine, just hard to beat existing implementation esp. once you start considering culture-sensitive comparison (which may defer to e.g. ICU).

There are no private SIMD APIs save for sequence comparison intrisic for unrolling against known lengths which JIT/ILC does for spans and strings.
Prediction: Trump wins presidency and there are no more fair elections.
But each party will protect their president, and you need a two-thirds to impeach. I just don't see the modern senate ever impeaching a President. We've seen today how far they will go to ignore reality and lie to make sure their leader doesn't suffer any consequences.
>a dangerous line

That's the same lukewarm sentiment that he's always received. It was an impeachable, criminal act.

My point is that he got away with it anyways, even without this "official act" clarification. Which just goes to show you that people whipping themselves into a frenzy about this have not been paying attention. They're using the most extreme language ("Seal Team 6 assassinations!!!") to describe some hypothetical that has already occurred without this ruling. It's silly.
Here is Justice Roberts’s definition of an official act. Since the courts are making it a new executive power, it’s in the eye of the wielder. Long live the king.

> In a unanimous decision written by Chief Justice John Roberts, the Court held that, under Section 201(a)(3):

> [A]n “official act” is a decision or action on a “question, matter, cause, suit, proceeding or controversy.” The “question, matter, cause, suit, proceeding or controversy” must involve a formal exercise of governmental power that is similar in nature to a lawsuit before a court, a determination before an agency, or a hearing before a committee. It must also be something specific and focused that is “pending” or “may by law be brought” before a public official. To qualify as an “official act,” the public official must make a decision or take an action on that “question, matter, cause, suit, proceeding or controversy,” or agree to do so. That decision or action may include using his official position to exert pressure on another official to perform an “official act,” or to advise another official, knowing or intending that such advice will form the basis for an “official act” by another official. Setting up a meeting, talking to another official, or organizing an event (or agreeing to do so)—without more—does not fit that definition of “official act.”
D'oh! I meant during the next president's term, a friendly Congress does it.

The part of the text you quoted that really sent shivers down my spine was:

> Nor may courts deem an action unofficial merely because it allegedly violates a generally applicable law.

So now the president can clearly break the law, and he cannot be questioned about it if it even remotely looks like maybe it could have been an official act? Surely, the correct ruling wold be that anything illegal is intrinsically not an official act, otherwise we wind up where the institution of the government is not bound by its founding documents. The executive branch of the government is a rogue entity with nothing to restrain it, as long as the president remembers to use a pompous looking stamp. For *certainly you can never show it was an unofficial act if you are not allowed to investigate because it is presumed an official act subject to absolute immunity *.

Mark my words. The next republican president will shut down any and all attempts to even question him or view documents, by preempting the investigation using this as his argument. And shortly later they will, most likely, start disbarring and / or incarcerating anybody who attempts to investigate him for "frivolous" persecutions that impede the executive branch. This ruling is very calculated, since they know Biden will not abuse his powers because of it, but there is an almost unstoppable amount of latent power that will be immediately abused by the next president.
Equating Trump's accusations and drone strikes only makes sense if you're not allowed to look at intent, which historically is very relevant for criminal law. More aptly Nixon would be immune from prosecution for obstructing the Watergate investigation under this ruling. In fact presidents are immune from using the justice department to go after political rivals here since determining prosecutorial priorities is clearly an official act (mentioned in the opinion) and you aren't allowed to inspect intent. If either party used the justice department specifically for personal gain they should be in jail but they are literally immune now.

The disallowing of considering even corrupt intent seems to be the real worry here. There's no distinction between using your power to promote general welfare and using it to line your own pockets or subvert democracy.
My real introduction to Title Insurance came not when I purchased my first house, but as I sold it. The buyer was an experienced builder who was buying the house (in a fairly desirable area of the city where property was appreciating quickly) in order to add upgrades and flip it.

When his agent asked why he had crossed out the line for title insurance, he retorted, "that property's been sold three times in 10 years. The title's clean."

I guess there was still some residual risk, but he had a point.
This is a monopoly without lock-in or network effect. As such, it really isn't a priority.

For a middle manager to take the fall, it will need to be shown that they acted without their superiors' knowledge or consent. That's pretty tough if the middle manager isn't a cooperative fall guy. If they're high enough up to believably be responsible for the issues, they are high enough up to know where the bodies are buried that demonstrate everyone else's involvement.
But if you let them do it in Excel, it would be 10 times worse again.

Modern wind turbines absolutely have shifted the paradigm - both in size, efficiency and durability. Across the globe, demand for new turbines in the market is insatiable. No other electricity generation technology (even nuclear in its heyday back in the 1980s) has grown as fast as wind has in the last 15 years - although I expect it's soon to be overtaken by PV growth. It's likely that this year the amount of electricity consumed globally from wind turbines (around 2.5TWh) will match that of nuclear reactors despite nuclear's 60 year head start in grid scale operations.

But the most obvious difference, and that which contributes most to the paradigm shift, is the difference in price.

The existence of technology alone isn't enough to shift any paradigm - the tech has to be relatively cheap - transistors were a curiosity until they became cheap and then they shifted the paradigm, same thing happened with integrated circuits and nearly every technology breakthrough in history.

Batteries, PV and wind turbines are mass-produced and their prices are falling as you'd expect given the expansion in production (between 80% and 95% in the last 15 years). This has been the way since Henry Ford and is not going to change. What is also inevitable is that once mass-production is introduced into any human endeavour, then the existing technology is doomed.

The TMSR-LF1 in China has not being selling into the grid for several years. It was never envisaged to do so - it's absolutely tiny (only 2MW) and it's intended that it will operate intermittently for the first 5 or more years before they try running it continuously. This is a science experiment, not a viable commercial reactor. The 2nd Oak Ridge reactor back in the 1960s was 7 or 8 times bigger - although it never managed to run properly and only ever achieved 7MW of output.

I really don't understand why thorium liquid salt reactor enthusiasm is widespread. It's just one of endless reactor designs which failed to make it into commercial operation because of a host of genuine technical/engineering reasons. Just read the wikipedia page[1] - the list of disadvantages is longer than the list of advantages. For every problem it solves, it introduces several more.

I’d be okay with that, but only if we have a review process where all Warren Court decisions are re-vetted by the newly constituted Supreme Court. You can’t spend half the 20th century having “judicial oligarchs” rewrite the constitution and then complain when a few court decisions go the other way.

But what would be more fun is for the current Supreme Court to adopt the “emanations from penumbras” philosophy of judging, and do that for a couple of decades.

Thanks for sharing a fun read.

Bitkeeper was neat, and my overall take on it mirrors Larry McVoy's: I wish he had open sourced it, made his nut running something just like github but for Bitkeeper, and that it had survived.

I only had one interaction with him. In the early '00s, I had contributed a minor amount of code to TortoiseCVS. (Stuff like improving the installer and adding a way to call a tool that could provide a reasonable display for diffs of `.doc` and `.rtf` files.) I had a new, very niche, piece of hardware that I was excited about and wanted to add support for in the Linux kernel. Having read the terms of his license agreement for Bitkeeper, and intending to maintain my patches for TortoiseCVS, I sent him an email asking if it was OK for me to use Bitkeeper anyway. He told me that it did not look like I was in the business of version control software (I wasn't!) and said to go ahead, but let him know if that changed.

I use git all the time now, because thankfully, it's good enough that I shouldn't spend any of my "innovation tokens" in this domain. But I'd still rather have bitkeeper or mercurial or fossil. I just can't justify the hit that being different would impose on collaboration.
> Something like the right to abortion should have been enshrined into a constitutional amendment loooong ago.

Indeed, and practically, probably initiated as part of the 95th or 96th Congress (under Carter), when the Democrats had substantial majorities in both houses and obviously the presidency.

My feeling is that this was not done because doing it removes the threat/opportunity of it getting rolled back, and removing that threat/opportunity lessens the fundraising ability of both parties.

Assassinating your political opponents using the military in the name of saving the nation fits quite neatly into the definition of fascism. You don't need the system to be fascist to be a fascist.

Since the prevailing view of Trump and MAGA Republicans is that they are fascist, it's not a stretch to point out that the proposal in the parent comment is far closer to "actual" fascism than the actions of an incompetent enabler.

> In today's political environment I don't see an impeachment ever succeeding unless the opposing party has a super-majority in the US Senate.

It's supposed to be hard to do. Impeachment is intended to be reserved for egregious violations or actions that most of congress (and by proxy, the citizenry) agree on.
> The right and left are both railing against our justice system.

True insofar as it goes… but this elides the detail that the right just won a generational battle for the Supreme Court. There is zero chance that any Republicans back reform here.

Even the minimum viable reform to enact term limits after this lot dies off is dead on arrival.

Notice my use of the term "understand". If you are just using from some library quaternions as a black-box, you really needn't understand anything about them, but if you want understand them it's probably easier to go through geometric algebra first. Otherwise you're basically just learning geometric algebra with half the rules missing and it makes no sense.

IIRC (Been a month or so since I looked into it) I couldn't access the underlying array in a way SIMD liked I think?
