The author addresses this with the anecdote about the discussion panelist espousing different views in private vs public. The "social apex" does practice family stability themselves, but de-emphasized it as a cultural norm. Presumably through their power of, say, academic research and media production.

Though the article could have done a better job explaining this. It's like a reverse phenomenon of "do as I say, not as I do".
> I strongly suspect a big part of housing price increases is the "small business" equivalent of institutional investors - someone buys 1-2 units that they do not plan to occupy and rent them as STRs.

This does not pass the smell test to me. Small businesses somehow are more inventivized to do this than institutional investors? Because the margins are not sufficient to attract the large businesses?? That needs evidence.

In general, small landlords don't make sense to me as something to ban.

Someone buys a two flat, lives in one and rents the other to help pay for the mortgage. That has classically been ok. You're only objecting to the short term ones?
Because he's deliberately confusing "maintained" with "actively developed" in order to insinuate that the existing tools is unmaintained.

> if(!Whatever.TryParse<Thingy>(input, out var output)) output = some-sane-default;

I can't think of many (probably any) situations where I'd want to find that.

If _no_ input is provided (i.e., the parameter is optional), sure, using a sane default makes sense.

If _invalid_ input is provided, for the love of god please don't pretend like nothing's wrong.

If someone walks into a florist and asks for a coffee, the correct answer is not for them to be handed a rose. They're going to cut their mouth all up when they try and drink it.

Your method/module/program does not have an output defined for that set of inputs. Make that obvious rather than just doing wrong or non-obvious things in a way that quickly makes your program almost impossible to reason about. Do yourself a favour and clearly raise the issue and leave yourself a stack trace pointing directly to the issue instead of setting yourself up for the vague bug about incorrect behaviour when someone catches this in a few months.
I don’t think this is _the_ problem, or even a problem. So what if we have a class of techniques that share some fundamental commonalities and label them all under the same broad category?
If these machines were backend systems (which most of the ones that mattered were), you have to ask: why are they running malware detection when they should have minimal-to-no surface area for an attacker?

Hm yeah do some chores for sure. Being emotionally available and verbal is an evolution in society, but it doesn’t cost much, assuming you were already willing to spend some time with your partner?

I don’t think being well read is a demand for most of America.
Shouldn't it be up to the individual to determine whether they want to take that bargain? What about those people who did well enough in their previous careers for retirement not to be a concern and desire a new technical challenge that serves the public?
To avoid confusion: all the described issues aren’t with Apache Kafka, but a separate piece of software called “Kafka UI” that is a separate software to Apache Kafka, and isn’t maintained or distributed with it.
> For promoting a branch to a conditional move to be a speed advantage, then a and b need to be cheap to compute (and even then p should probably be somewhat unpredictable--you're balancing the cost of computing the unnecessary effect with the cost of the branch predictor giving the wrong result). If an and b are cheap to compute, and safe to speculatively execute, then hoisting them out of that branch into a conditional move instruction is already likely.

Agreed, hopefully I wasnt implying anything different.

> Note that this isn't the only common case of tiny basic blocks being created by expressions that can be eliminated: many instances of && and || can be converted to & and |, and it's generally even more beneficial to do so than ternary-to-conditional-move construction.

That conversion is only beneficial as a canonical form. Definitely not beneficial for instruction selection, since it means grosser code on most CPUs (you have to do conditional moves or sets on the inputs to the &&/|| and then a logic op and then compare/branch, which has less ILP than just branching twice).
(Also, trees. And ever so odly non-euclidean rooms ...)
> Aerodynamically, having fewer but much larger props would make more sense for efficiency,

Source?

I can think of a lot of flight reasons many small props could be better. You can spin faster while still keeping the tip subsonic. Typically fans have inefficiencies because outter blade moves so much faster than the inner blade & this effect is reduced with smaller blades. If you're looking for a blown wing effect you get much more surface area. Airflow is smoother because prop wash is more dispersed and even.

For a while it seemed like many props was the sure way forward. It's definitely less seen now, but for example the Aurora XV-24A LightningStrike, NASA X-57 Maxwell, and GL-10 Greased Lightning seemed like they were setting the way forward. It seemed like technical difficulties that beset the Maxwell team that made them reduce Maxwell to a less ambitious more conventional electric offering. https://www.nasa.gov/stem-content/x-57-electric-airplane/ https://www.defensenews.com/digital-show-dailies/sas/2017/04...
shrug I meet that checklist, but of course I'd only be interested in a non-technical cofounder who passed a similarly comprehensive checklist (e.g. proven career in sales, major connections with potential clients, strong understanding of market position and competitors, already has created mockups that people are interested in purchasing).

There is a lot of wisdom in this comment. So many of the world’s most ‘accomplished’ people at first appear to have been born special and to be fundamentally different from the rest of us but usually aren’t; they simply got on with it and then persisted long enough to have great success. They didn’t let the little voice in their head that says they’re not as good as the others win — either because they consciously chose to fight it, or because they were lucky to be born without it at all. To that extent, some of us are born fundamentally special.

It’s so incredibly true that even if you tell someone something’s hard and it’ll take a while to get they’re still likely to give up too early and feel inferior for not ‘getting it’. This is why almost everyone (at least in the western world) thinks they “can’t do math”.
Did the EU ask Microsoft to build leaky, fragile abstractions too? It sounds like Microsoft's architects are a bit too comfy.
Canary deployment doesn’t necessarily mean massive gaps between deployment waves. You can fast-follow. Sure, there may be scenarios with especially severe vulnerabilities where time is of the essence. I’m out of the loop if this crowdstrike update was such a scenario where best practices for software deployment were worth bypassing.

If this is just how they roll with regular definition updates, then their deployment practices are garbage and this kind of large scale disaster was inevitable.

And yet, there were generations of children who were raised by fathers and had two-parent households.

Access to birth control has increased at the same time that single parent households have increased. It doesn't seem to be having an effect.

I also take issue with your claim that men don't want their own children. Again, we're talking about a change that happened in the 60's and 70's. Is your argument that all men suddenly changed to hate children 50-60 years ago? No. What happened is that divorce laws changed. Social expectations for men and women changed to be more sexually promiscuous. The legal framework that encouraged two-parent households was dismantled.

The author covers the latter topic somewhat, but doesn't delve into the topic of the legal framework that enables one-parent households. There are a multitude of laws surrounding divorce and child support, which originated in the 60s, 70s, and 80s, that encourage single motherhood and make it extremely difficult for working fathers to raise children. For generations, it was possible for men to work and raise children when they were not working. Now, the responsibility of work is often used to deny fathers custody.
I don't understand what's confusing with my example aha.

Current situation: you have

std::variant<int, whatever> x;

you now want to discriminate on whenever x has been initialized explicitly or not, the two cases I posted:

// case 1
std::variant<int, whatever> x;

// case 2
std::variant<int, whatever> x = 0;

you have two options:

option A: does not needlessly increase sizeof, does not add indirection penalty upon access:

std::variant<std::monostate, int, whatever> x;

option B: needlessly increases sizeof, adds indirection penalty upon access (mostly relevant when compiling in debug mode without inlining if you still want to have a semblance of performance):

std::optional<std::variant<int, whatever>> x;
this looks like scalping to me.

That isn't an implementation of addition between Spans and other Spans. It looks like there isn't one in the library right now. `impl<'a> Add<Span> for &'a Zoned` means a borrow of Zoned is on the left hand side, and a Span on the right. So it says that if z is a Zoned (not a Span) and s is a Span, you can do `&z + s` to add a span to a Zoned. There are a bunch of implementations there, DateTime + Span, Date + Span, Time + Span, Offset + Span. All with Span on the right, but none for Span + Span (nor Span + &Span, or &Span + &Span, ...).
Thanks for the explanation. I agree signed spans make it easier to express concepts like "1 year ago" vs "1 year from now". And clearly if the concept of a negative duration has made it into the standard then it makes sense to support it. But I do wonder if there's some value still in being precise, if I think I've measured a negative duration--e.g I look at my watch and write down t0, wait a bit, look at my watch again and write down t1 and find t0 > t1--that's something surprising that probably warrants further investigation. The explanation likely isn't "well time just went backwards for a bit there" :P. This happens frequently in computers, though, so maybe making the programmer handle an error each time is excessive.
Not sure why the negative votes on this one, one of the only takes that doesn't make me feel insane so far. I'll reword my understanding of it.

Society requires effort and investment that doesn't produce immediate material benefits. Rationalizing everything down to profit and loss encourages people to see the collected effort as a tragedy of the commons. You need to actually want to be part of a society to start, then if enough people join you, you can actually build one!

Most of the people with PhDs in that age group I know are married and often talk excitedly about what activities they recently did with their kids. Many are married to other people with PhDs, and their kids also seem to intend to go for PhDs.

I personally prefer another definition of culture war that rises above the ever-changing ground-level arguments. This would be the belief that a person is ultimately responsible for themselves, and any policy or belief that removes that internal locus of control is antithetical to a healthy life and society. I think from here, much of the individual arguments can be classified.

That's interesting, and good, I suppose. I knew that the birth rate had peaked but I didn't know that the absolute number of births had peaked.

According to https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/number-of-births-per-year the highest number of births was 146.05 million in 2012.

(But the total number of births per year fell throughout the 1990s ... mainly because of the birth rate falling in China? ... before rising to that global maximum in 2012.)
When I was in my 20s, I was in great shape, riding thousands of miles a year (distance riding, not racing). On a flat, straight track in still air, I'm pretty sure my top speed was around 32mph. And while pro cyclists would scoff at my personal best there, most people aren't even coming close to that.

> The actual solution to housing price inflation is a full correction that wipes out the inflated value of housing in this country, cutting each property's worth back down to its intrinsic value. Affordability and use would reset to what the real market actually can sustain, as when the income tax forced wealthy property owners to divest of and demolish or convert their grand mansions into apartments for people to actually live in.

Your thesis is not grounded in reality, and will never occur due to how durable the economy is (preventing mortgage defaults) due to structural demographics as well as how much equity exists in housing in the aggregate (~$17T as of this comment), preventing a correction from MBS investment failures. As long as demand outstrips supply, no correction will occur, as owners and sellers can outlast buyers. There is no bubble, housing is what housing is worth based on limited supply. The market can sustain this as long as people are willing to buy at the prices on offer, and if demand diminishes (unlikely due to population growth, household formation, and immigration), prices will slowly deflate over years as sellers organize themselves in time series by motivation. Gotta live somewhere.

Not if the investors are willing to warehouse units to keep prices high, rather than lower prices in order to sell. If prices of luxury units are high enough, you're talking a significant percentage of units that can just be held while investors still break even or profit. Why lock in a loss or low profit (and, in doing so, hurt the value of your other holdings)?

Agree that housing, education and healthcare are more expensive than ever.

But I lived through the 1980s and let me tell you, in many ways consumer goods are better and cheaper than ever before. It was just normal and expected that cars would have holes rust in them, and sunroofs that would leak. A home computer was an exotic rarity, and a monitor with a 15" viewable area was considered big. There was an entire industry dedicated to renting TVs, not just because of the high upfront cost but also because they often broke down, and the rental company would provide the repair or replacement.

And both cases are pretty easy to detect nowadays.

Huh? It's quite trivial, and even some tools for VS Code and other environments support it.

>You basically have to use a headless browser rendering toolkit, and guess what? The images aren't consistent (different rendering styles)

Is your problem saving Mermaid as images or lamenting cross browser rendering consistency?

If it's the former, why is the latter a problem? Use a single headless browser rendering toolkit and stick with it. Who said you need to use multiple and compare?

And there are other ways to do it, like exporting from an actual in-browser render, or even a VS Code extension - it can also be found in other tools based on Electron.

I am no expert in hydrogen fuel cells and am interested to know. Do fuel cells deliver enough instantaneous power that batteries do, for the weight of all the associated equipment? Certainly the power density of the fuel is high, but given all the membranes, plates, etc. (all the "bubbling chemistry that has to happen"), how is the power delivery per hardware weight? Sometimes I imagine that exploding hydrogen in an engine (if it were possible) would be more power dense than sending it through fuel cells.

(as I said I'm clearly no expert about fuel cells)

And separate minor point, while it's pointed out as a novelty, I somehow doubt the composite construction is really targeted at anti-corrosion (I mean it might contribute a little on this front I guess).
