If the file server is down.. anyone could upload the ebook for download?
SFPD identifies them as male.

Also, he was reportedly driving "a rental car that was past due... On June 26, the suspect vehicle [from all 20 slashings] was located on the 300 block of Bryant Street and the suspect was inside the vehicle. Burton slashed the tires on the suspect vehicle as well as the tires of the tow truck that had responded on behalf of the rental car company to seize the suspect vehicle. He then broke windows on both vehicles before vandalizing five occupied vehicles along the Embarcadero."

I take it he's not gonna give the rental company 5 stars on Yelp?
> hey, I wrote a fun game that requires root access

So... Just like AAA game studios, eh?
Yeah, it doesn't actually insert a breakpoint, because then you need to look at the instruction to see what all the places it could end up next are (eg if it's a conditional branch you need a bp on both fall-through and take-branch). The "pure software" singlestep pjc50 mentions works like that, where it really is the debugger process looking at the instruction being single-stepped and manually inserting breakpoints the same way it would for any other kind of breakpoint it wanted (which is potentially pretty annoying to do for things like computed branches). But hardware-assisted singlestep doesn't need to do that, because the CPU can know when it's completed execution of the instruction and trigger the exception back to the OS right then.

(NB: I'm most familiar with Arm CPU singlestep; I don't know exactly what Intel CPUs provide for this.)
hello everyone!

we've worked hard over the last 6 month to make Seline the best simple analytics out there. it is not a product done over the weekend, it is very fast and intuitive.

Seline is completely free to start (within certain limits) so you are more than welcome to try it out. and please let us know what you think!
I suspect this is due to the intermingled effects of biology and politics.

* Consider that with the loss of Roe v Wade many states, including my own, have adopted draconian policies towards abortion without consideration for medical necessity.

* Consider also the study indicated the most increased risk age groups are late 20s and early 30s.

What’s interesting is there was a study published December indicating first time mothers in the 16-20 age group when compared to the 21-25 age group were about 20% less likely to experience detrimental risks of regular vaginal births. The numbers held identical when compared between the US and third world countries without common access to advanced medical care. The study concluded that age is among the most serious of factors with regards to maternal health of first time mothers and this could explain why males developed a selective preference for younger females.
In my experience there is way more work than you can conceivably get done. There is no way the work is running out.

If (adult) DHT was only bad, then you wouldn’t see any adverse side effects from blocking its synthesis. DHT is just an androgen receptor agonist, its effects in adult male biology are not understood very well, including the reasons why DHT blockers (absolutely do) cause a number of adverse side effects.

It could be a helper-function which gets called by a macro expansion at compile-time. One would define the feature as a function which is available at compile-time and the macro calls it during expansion.
That makes zero difference. You aren’t suddenly allowed to use someone else’s branding just because you’re reusing a piece of branding from a product.

> The "mess" of Linux audio is due to ONE reason: single-client ALSA driver model.

This is one of the major reasons why Linux accessibility sucks IMO.

Audio is one thing that you need to "just work™" if you want to get accessibility right, as there's no way for a screen reader user to fix it without having working audio in the first place[1]. On Linux, it does not "just work", and different screen readers have different ideas on how they want audio to be handled. In particular, the terminal Speakup screen reader (with a softsynth) wants exclusive control of your device through ALSA IIRC, while the Orca screen reader for the GUI goes through Pulse. That makes it impossible to use both of them at the same time.

[1] Well, you can sort of fix it by having a second machine and SSHing into the broken one, but that's not what I mean.
When someone online tells you they made millions, you have no obligation to believe them.

> I think it's not correct to say that void is a monotype in C++, because the compiler won't allow you to assign the result of a function marked void to a variable, and you cannot declare a variable of type void.

The compiler does not allow you to do that particular operation out of an arbitrary restriction, but that does not make `void` a true void type. It still holds a monotype value!

int bar() {
std::cout << "Bar" << std::endl;
return 0;
}

void baz() {
std::cout << "Baz" << std::endl;
}

template <typename T> T foo(T (*f)()) {
std::cout << "Foo" << std::endl;
return f();
}

template <typename T> T varfoo(T (*f)()) {
std::cout << "Varfoo" << std::endl;
T a = f();
return a;
}

int main()
{
foo(bar); // Valid (returning an int).
foo(baz); // Valid (returning a void).
varfoo(bar); // Valid (assigning an int).
// varfoo(baz); // Invalid (assigning a void (why???)).
}
Have you tried Linux audio forums/community? I think the problem is that, by experience, regular musicians will just say "you need to use windows (or mac) to do anything serious" so it's complicated to find enough people that are competent in both skills.
I think block-level snapshots would be very difficult to use this way.

I just make a full dedupped backups from LVM snapshots with kopia, but I've set that up only on one system, on others I just use kopia as-is.

It takes some time, but that's fine for me. Previous backup of 25 GB an hour ago took 20 minutes. I suppose if it only walked files it knew were changed it would be a lot faster.
Downvoting isn't really a mechanism to censor, flagging is. The intent of downvoting is usually just disagreement. My guess would be you're being downvoted for a few reasons:

- A few of the people you mentioned are somewhat polarising, so folks who dislike them, might downvote

- in a measure of a president's efficacy, mentioning people who think a president is ineffective isn't as convincing as say mentioning actions of the president that were ineffective. You will, for any president, be able to find a large number of people who will passionately argue for/against that president's effectiveness.

- Your sources are very long videos, which discourage verifying if folks want to see what they said about him. Eg "Here's why he's in effective: [3 hours of podcasts]"

- One of your sources is a podcast which features Trump himself, which greatly brings into doubt the objectivism of the video

- the Zuckerberg short is very speculative, further weakening this collection of sources

Im not on a low dose, I take 8mg oral estradiol per day. It’s just not a particularly high dose, just the highest my doctor is comfortable giving someone orally. I don’t care about the testosterone in my system I only want to stop hair loss (I’m very genderfucked non-binary). It was my doctor from the UCSF Transgender Care center that suggested finasteride may have effects similar to that of reducing T (specifically a more estrogen dominant arousal style). I’m already on cialis and previously I’d take 5mg a day normally and 10mg on days where I would have sex, which is a pretty high dose. On finasteride I’ve noticed reduced erection performance even with 15mg cialis which is the most I want to take in a day (20mg is the maximum recommended daily dose).

Also I’m 39, so whatever masculinization I’m due for I suspect has all happened already.

Not sure if people are still using Kafka UI. It's essentially unmaintained for a while now.

While the release notes of Kafka UI 0.7.2 [1] only mention the security fixes, it contains 1 year (!) worth of changes [2].

The designated successor is Kafbat UI [3,4], developed by the same development team which previously worked on Kafka UI.

Kafbat UI 1.0.0 [5] already contains a fix for CVE-2023-52251 [6].

In Australia we had over 500,000 immigrants in 2023. Much higher than usual to account for decreased numbers in prior years due to COVID.

We only have 6 cities with populations bigger than 500k. We let in a number of people greater than the population of our capital city in one year.

I am not anti-immigration (I have two people in my team I've helped arrange visas for). But this insane number has seriously changed the fabric of our society in real, tangible ways, purely from the pressure it has put on the housing market.

We are already seeing anti-immigration rhetoric from the usual suspects and its only going to get worse.

A few weeks ago there were stories about recent immigrants heading back home because the opportunities here are few and the cost of living is so high there's no way they can live here (https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-06-08/why-these-immigrants-...). (I had an Uber driver tell me he's going back to India to open a gym because he can't afford to live here in Brisbane any more.)

And now literally today we're getting early warning signs of stress in the employment market, which is going to hurt the new immigrants the most (https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-07-23/economists-warn-unemp...).

Again - not anti-immigration. We /need/ it in Australia. There are many reasons why we're in the mess we're in and not all of them are immigration. But at the end of the day our housing market is completely fucked and the flow on effects from this are dramatic. I don't think we're simplifying the problem down to "immigration" but it's simply undeniable that it is a factor in our current situation.

android, however, is garbage.

- having to do phone-like-stuff on a desktop/laptop is painful
- i hate Android. It's settings bother me the most. there is ZERO organization here! There are DARK patterns galore, it's built to dissuade you from doing anything serious.

I can only take your comment as either a joke, or you literally only use a phone/tablet in life.

news flash: Android audio is ALSA at it's core.
Additionally: native Android audio is ultra-high-latency... completely unacceptable for pro-audio

Don't think so. Google has a relatively good track record for acquisitions. So I don't think they were really worried.

Technically, should be enought 2 machines with 128 GB RAM or 4 machines with 64 GB RAM (Q40 weights).
Above you're arguing for one side of the debate. I'm arguing that as long as there is a debate the safest bet is to adopt the default, null position: it's not flying; it's not intelligent.

To summarise my argument again: if we can all agree that something is intelligent, then it probably is. If we can't, then it probably isn't, especially, I would add, if there is substantial disagreement.

One motivation for this is to avoid an unending quest for the right definition. Once we can all agree what (artificial) intelligence is, it will be much easier to agree to a definition. But while we're all looking at the same thing and can't agree on what it is, how can we agree on a definition, and then use it to support one or the other side of the debate?

Take human intelligence. I don't think anyone seriously doubts that humans are intelligent, except perhaps for the purpose of being contrary, or being a philosopher[1]. We may not know what "intelligent" means, but we can agree that whatever it is, it's something that humans have. Yes, that's an arbitrary decision, but as long as we can agree on it, it doesn't matter that it's arbitrary: it matters that there is consensus, based on common experience, and we all know what we're talking about. We can't get to a definition of a phenomenon before we all agree that it is there: we all agreed that fire is fire, water is water and ice is ice, a long time before we had any sort of commonly agreed definitions of them.

"I can't put my finger on it but I know it when I see it"- that's a very simple way to avoid discussions that lead nowhere.

And there are way too many discussion that lead nowhere in AI.

Edit: btw, in research the discussions are much more focused. E.g. "LLMs can plan": that's a concrete, testable claim. No reason to define intelligence to resolve it. Much more progress is made this way than by endlessly chasing our tails about what is or isn't intelligent.

I'm retired.

I saved enough to live comfortably -not richly.

I spend almost all my time, writing code for free. My GH Activity Graph is almost solid green. I'm working on releasing my sixth or seventh free app in just a few years (almost all are open-source). Over the last dozen years, or so, I've released over 20 (most are deprecated).

I really don't look forward to having others destroy my work, anymore. After a fairly brief time, looking for work (at age 55), I quickly figured out that, even if anyone hired me, they would treat me (and, even worse, my work) like crap. They certainly did, during the hazi- er, interviewing process.

So I guess I'm one of those "disincentivized to work" folks.
I'm sorry. I meant "what if work is scarce". That is, that's there more people than work.

If I understood him correctly, I think this is where some language collections libraries ought to shine. PHP/Laravel collection or C# Link for exemple. Tell it how to load a record into the collection, add one liners for each criterias you want to define, and in a few dozen lines you're free to go.

One of my favourite art pieces is the successful attempt to relocate a hoarding Australian master painter’s entire Sydney flat 1,000km north to northern NSW

Over 20,000 objects had to have been catalogued and replaced, exactly where they were at the time of her death

This includes cigarette butts, half eaten food and dead flies etc

I was lucky enough to get to stand in the room (usually 100% off-limits no exceptions) it was bizarre that it smelt exactly like it wasn’t relocated and installed in a sterile art gallery

In my experience, designers mistake web design with print design. Too often, the focus is on the UI rather than on the UX.
Yes - for further context, there's been a big statistical increase in maternal deaths in the US in part due to changes in reporting. [1]

There was strong evidence that the US wasn't reporting all maternal deaths that meet the WHO definition; pregnancy and birth are major medical events, and can easily aggravate other medical conditions. But often you couldn't extract that information from the cause of death reported on a death certificate.

So the US added a 'pregnant or recently pregnant?' checkbox to cause of death reports, and started counting all deaths with the box checked, minus accidents, suicides and falls. So even if a woman had a terminal illness before getting pregnant, that would still count as a maternal death. Then they gradually rolled out the new form one state at a time, over the course of 15 years - so instead of seeing a clear step in the data, there's a long gradual increase.

This makes measuring any real changes in maternal death rates extremely challenging.

However, this report says maternal death rates are rising even after accounting for the changes in reporting.

> Is this something professional programmers are having trouble with??

I would say, yes. So does everybody else. If you don't believe it, I don't think you appreciate the depth of these problems.

I am reminded of Eric Meijer saying that the interface (in the Java sense) part of the contract between types is the least interesting part. What is important are their algebraic properties, which can be modeled using functional types and other bunch of advanced type-theoretical ideas (like linear types for instance).

Modelling stuff with types is not easy, it's an art.

Why scare quotes though? Professional programmer just means someone who writes software for a living. Software is your profession... there's no doubt what that means , is there??

If you do that, you'll have run into this sort of decision very early in your career, and hopefully will understand the best way to handle it, which IMHO just depends on the language (because certain features lead to different optimum solutions) and the culture around it. But sure, I am happy to discuss fundamental topics like this, that's why I am engaging and asking what others think.
Fertility is not a problem in many developing countries where salaries are far, far less than that. Men and women have reproduced above replacement level for literally millions of years. It's primarily a question of status and social approval.
I guess it's not a full cure but dutasteride is pretty close to one if you start taking it before being like fully bald.

By your logic there isn’t an increase in maternal deaths because they were already this high for a long time before and nobody cared, arguably an even worse situation. There is no way to spin this that isn’t societal neglect of pregnancy.
