> any sort of justice reform is complained about as being soft on crime

I'd like to point out that the proposition here can both be framed as draconian and too soft depending on the context/frame of reference one is evaluating it under.

Really, the difficulty of justice reform is that people are unwilling to implement policy that has foreseeable and harmful consequences. Because they see that as (and others will interpret it as) equivalent to intentionally seeking to harm the unfortunate group. But this is the wrong way to do this. It has to be about reducing harm/crime/whatever word you want to use.

I'll give an example. Let's say you invent a drug that cures lung cancer in 100% of cases but there's a 20% chance of those that are treated will develop breast cancer. Without a doubt this is something we should do. Breast cancer has one of the highest rates of survival while lung cancer has a very low rate. But you could make an argument that you are knowingly giving patients cancer, and this would be accurate (and imagine more realistic case where the rates are not evenly distributed across demographics). You did after all design a drug that gives people cancer. I think we can all imagine such a drug being pulled because people misunderstand the consequences. And certainly real world situations are nowhere near the simplicity of this hypothetical.

I use Racket. It has a lot of standard libraries and also packages that you can download.

Using only the standard librares I made a few projects:

* Open a GUI to select a file, untargzip it, parse one of the expanded files with xlm, edit the xml and targzip everything again. (This is a common pattern. Now many applications save the data as a xml compressed with tar and gzip.) I made an executable and send it to my coworkers so they can just run it.

* A bot to reply emails, with IMAP and SMPT. It reads the email, scrap some data from one of my webpages and send it in the reply. the bot can only only handle the easy questions, but in my case it's like the 90% so it it saves me a lot of time.

* I used the webserver so the T.A. in my part of the university can fill their preferences about the courses they want to teach. It handles like 500 users in an old computer without problems.

attempt 1 with llama 3.1 405b

what version llama are you

I am an instance of Llama 2, an artificial intelligence model developed by Meta AI.

how many parameters

I am a Llama 2 model with 7 billion parameters.

Attempt 2

which llama are you exactly

I am a variant of the LLaMA model, specifically LLaMA 1.5B.

Here's a brief overview of the different LLaMA models:

LLaMA 7B: This is the largest and most powerful LLaMA model, with 7 billion parameters. It's the most advanced and capable model in the LLaMA family.

LLaMA 3B: This model has 3 billion parameters and is a smaller but still very capable version of the LLaMA model.

LLaMA 1.5B: This is the model I'm based on, with 1.5 billion parameters. It's a smaller and more efficient version of the LLaMA model, but still very knowledgeable and capable.

LLaMA 650M: This is the smallest LLaMA model, with 650 million parameters. It's a more lightweight and efficient version of the model, but still useful for many tasks.

I know "designer drugs" primarily through psychedelic analogues (e.g. 1V-LSD); also, through psychedelic fakes (e.g. NBOMe in place of LSD), which can be fatal. I don't think either one of these are designed to avoid drug tests, but rather to avoid being technically illegal, so that they can be sold over the clearnet to average people. The fakes are designed to be cheaper to manufacture than the real thing, though not designed to be safe. People have died from overdoses of these analogues (and even from regular doses). You are not supposed to be able to overdose on LSD (at the very least, it should not be able to kill you), so this is pretty bad and unexpected when it happens. It's one of the major reasons why reagent testing is so encouraged by harm reduction communities: if you really want to take some substance, it's very important to make sure you know that you're taking the correct substance in the first place; otherwise, even what very limited bets you would've had are already off.

The reagent to test for LSD is usually Ehrlich's reagent, but many reagent kits come with multiple reagents so you can not only verify the presence of LSD but also the absence of other adulterants. One can never really be too safe; the wrong drug can have all sorts of undesired effects, all the way up to potential death (or Parkinson's as in the linked article).

OK, now that sounds like a real product with a market, unlike your original post. I don't know if or how you can bootstrap to there (I assume Okta took a bunch of money so that they could blitz out to integrating with everything and didn't need to make sales when they couldn't integrate with everything - maybe building the integrations with a customer's systems as you acquire that customer?) - and I don't know how many people have non-legacy prem systems that they're willing to spend money on. But this is the pitch.

I feel associating methods to data is very good in terms of reducing scope (avoids every function being global) and developer convenience.

But when people glorify OOP, they are usually focused on highlighting polymorphism — and that is when the “king has no clothes”.

Outside somewhat narrow usecases, polymorphism is often overrated. Even when functionally possible in OOP, there could be huge performance impacts of a simple change like changing an array to linked list.

The “traits” approach used in Rust (and others) is much more practical.

In the US, outside of a few special cases, if you're operating on the national rail network, you're operating on rail owned by a freight company, and they have priority. Amtrak often struggles to operate more than 1 or 2 trains an hour as "guests" on these routes. This is very UNLIKE Japan where the freights run on almost a totally different set of tracks.

Also, from a regulatory standpoint, freight and intercity railways (e.g. not subway/light rail/metro/trams) are subject to full FRA regulations, compliance with which would add even more costs, for little real benefit at the speeds they travel at.

Plus, in practice subway/light rail is electrified, and anything else (again with few caveats) is not. In towns with both it is very rare for them to use the same stations.
The DoJ has established a workaround for this, and it's called Equitable Sharing.

Oddly it seems useful for the US to have that large of a stockpile. Perhaps it's from watching too many sci-fi movies, but having a bunch of nukes on hand in the event of a massive asteroid on a trajectory to hit earth seems useful to me.

Third party cookies are not just used for tracking - they are also any cookies set in an iframe. There are legitimate use cases for third party cookies. Chrome recently rolled out partitioned cookies which addresses part of the problem. If you are trying to authenticate via sso to then show content in an iframe, this just doesn't work, though. There is some behind the scenes trickery you might be able to use with reverse proxies but it's painful. I setup some systems using keycloak and nginx to force the iframe and idp on the same domain. You're out of luck if you're using Azure AD or any third party idp, though.

I don't know if I per-se agree with defaulting to zero in all instances, but I agree with a somewhat general sentiment. Division by zero, it would be nice if it returned something we can count on. In my mind, I see it some pre-determined safe default value. Which in many cases, may be zero.

I think what I would like is perhaps a way to have something almost like an interrupt. And being able to set what the interrupt does or swap between different interrupts. At runtime we can see the denominator is zero, so trigger the interrupt. For a set of functions, I can set an interrupt where a divide by zero does return zero, these would be functions whose callers can safely handle the zero or perform some default state at zero. But other functions, maybe there is a different default value that callers can use and it not screw everything up.

Some may gripe about, but its a mathematically in correct answer. Sure, it is. But for systems, especially saftey critical systems, I'd rather know that in the event I didn't properly guard against a 0 in the denominator, a behavior that I can account for is guaranteed to happen (some safe default).

Exactly. I didn't say 10TB was too big, I said it was an odd size. There's no easy way to get close to 10TB when using components that are sized by powers of two, plus or minus varying amounts of overprovisioning depending on market segment, and GB vs GiB differences. ~8TB SSDs are common in consumer and enterprise markets. 16TB drives that expose 15.36TB usable space are common in enterprise, and 12.8TB usable space from ~16TB raw flash isn't unheard of. 10TB usable space isn't theoretically impossible, but it simply wouldn't make sense.

There is strong value in security in layers. While VPN access requires remote users to have a hardware key, internal VMs may need a file based pre-shared key/certificate. If an attacker somehow manages to gain VPN access without a hardware key, they’d still either need a hardware key or they’d have to additionally comprise the TLS PKI be able to complete an mTLS connection to an app. Checking the hardware key on the way up the stack keeps an attacker on the VPN from having a privileged position.

Oh yes, absolutely. But the solution to that is stop using joke languages that can't do kind polymorphism.

How can it, if the language doesn't give it that information? Either you have a language that can reliably distinguish between sync and async calls in a standard way - which is to say, it has a type system that distinguishes between sync and async, whether it calls it that or not - or your IDE has an ad-hoc informally specified bug-ridden slow implementation of half of one.

A few years ago Micro Center had a coupon for a free 120gb SSD, which I guess worked because I ended up going there and buying stuff in order to redeem it.

Surprisingly, it's still holding up...pretty good for free!

[1] One project I've done involves breaking up video files into a picture of every frame, then do some kind of image processing, write the new files, and then glue them back together, which means there can be a ton of writes on there that I don't want to be done on the expensive and irreplaceable internal SSD on my Mac.
