How feasible would it be for something like gdb to be able to use a C++ interpreter (whether icpp, or even a souped up `constexpr` interpreter from the compiler) to help with "optimized out" functions?

gdb also doesn't handle overloaded functions well, e.g. `x[i]`.
Isn't putting ads on children's programming, as has been done since the dawn of television, "targeting children"? This seems like bullshit targeting of the competition to me.

I am white but I have been told by my (Taiwanese) manager that, "All Asian's hate the Japanese." I know only a little of the history of Japan and its neighbors but he assured me there is a long history of Japan being the aggressor behind this sentiment.

I don't feel like I'm trying to paint you in a bad light, rather hoping you'll concede that one side doesn't get a free pass if the other does something atrocious.

Perhaps it was my having been raised a Quaker during a formative period of my life, but an eye for an eye is quite the opposite of my philosophy.

Quite similar to when MS made their ebooks "stop working" because they shut off the validation servers. It's not that reading is a massive multiplayer thing either, only that the "book" needed to talk to a server before you are allowed to read it.

You're right. It's not what I hoped for.

> You kinda have to fight against the IDE to not do a lot of things a certain way. For example, it'll automatically namespace new files according to your folder structure. They've also turned a certain amount of automatic linting on to gently suggest/nag you to write in a particular way.Suggest you write classes in certain ways, use newer language features, declare variables in better ways, etc. You can ignore all the nagging, but it's also incredibly easy for the next programmer to walk in and use the quick actions functionality to 'fix' the code in a few clicks.

This is why I find a .editorconfig file to be incredibly helpful.
Cost and capacity to do this aside, should one archive a site that permits user contributed content text and/or multimedia content I foresee a legal conundrum. That which may be considered acceptable speech and/or multimedia today could be deemed hate speech, libel or even illegal by a country in a few years or decades. Content deemed illegal in the future also becomes illegal to delete. CDN's and ISP would not want to deal with the legal conundrums and would just boot archive sites all together.

Technically yeah, but it's also what the news looks like today. By volume, it's mostly speculation, gossip, and politically flavored analysis.
It seems to me the underlying issue is that mistakes are punished and taking initiative to solve problems is not rewarded.
Read don't watch. Reading is a faster way to ingest information.

Read disparate sources knowing they each have their political biases. That is - explicitly read some right (or left) wing news you don't like as a check & balance on the flavor of news you do like to read.

Understand the difference between the news & editorial side of papers.

I would also note that "business news" (WSJ/Bloomberg/etc) tend to be more just-the-facts than your median WaPo/NYT/Fox/MSNBC/NYPost/LAT.

This has exactly the same "pre approved" list problem as Chromecast. But it is actually worse because you can only launch apps that are already installed on the device. (Better in some ways because there may be advantages to native apps, but worse for openness and small competitors)
Someday office365 will end this problem, let's hope that.

However for my basic usages libreoffice always fared very well, I still have a habit to save to PDF and print that to paper though!
Fork term is too vague as to become almost meaningless. Technically cloning software and changing a single letter anywhere is "a fork". It's just pointless for endusers.

So going by a letter of definition Chrome Brave is a fork, but by spirit of a definition it is not. Example - this topic right here. If it was a fork they would have forked the code and maintained Manifest V2 instead of V3, autonomously, like software forks do. But since it is not a real fork (in spirit of the word), they can't and don't want to do it, and simply accept every change the real code owner does, Google in this case.
Ahh, thats cool. Note, the app embedded capabilities of OpenZiti becomes very interesting in this scenario, for example, our Python SDK working with Boto3 for AWS S3 - https://blog.openziti.io/extend-access-to-a-private-s3-bucke....

I get that. Would need to check if we can integrate Ziti into Traefik in the same way we did for Nginx (https://blog.openziti.io/nginx-zerotrust-api-security) and Caddy (https://blog.openziti.io/put-some-ziti-in-your-caddy), which we did respectively using the C and Golang SDKs. Therefore you wouldn't need to change your ingress, you would just load Ziti as a module in it.
People really need to understand how journalism works as a business model. When you only consume news that reinforces your beliefs, that creates an incentive to produce news that conforms to your beliefs. This doesn't mean your beliefs are wrong, just that you should be aware of your own biases and guard against them.

Excessive cynicism is a real danger too. Democracies rely on an informed electorate to guide decisions. If you throw up your hands and say the truth is unknowable so nothing matters anyway, you're giving into autocracy. There absolutely are forces that would like you to give up on the notion of being able to tell truth from falsehoods.

You may not know absolute truth for absolute certainty, but if you live in a democratic society and you'd like to keep it that way, you really ought to make an attempt to know what's going on.

You can't have news be a business. Period. It's really that simple. It's like having schools be a business, or healthcare, roads, regulation agencies, etc.

You can't produce a system where the EPA gets its funding from the amount of pollution it stops for example. That's a perverse incentive. These types of organizations are by definition cost centers. And must be treated as such.

Can’t find an official announcement or datasheet yet, but according to this post:

* 2x Cortex-M33F
* improved DMA
* more and improved PIO
* external PSRAM support
* variants with internal flash (2MB) and 80 pins (!)
* 512KiB ram (double)
* some RISC-V cores? Low power maybe?

Looks like a significant jump over the RP2040!
Reminds me of when computers were literally humans computing things (often women). How time weaves its circular web.
MiniLang: Update
Hello guys! It's been a while since I last updated the MiniLang programming language. The language aims to be powerful, yet concise, simple and easy to use and learn. Check it out if you find this interesting.

Additions:

* Structures

* Function overloading

* Uniform function call syntax (UFCS)

* C-based compiler backend (by default)

* Some builtins

Still missing (in development):

* Const specifier

* Unsigned specifier

* Floating point types

* Memory safety

# Mini Lang

A type-safe C successor that compiles directly to various platforms.

Motivation:

The language is designed to closely match c features along with some zero-overhead quality of life improvements that you would find in a modern language, while maintaining the ease of learning the language (in about 10 minutes or less via QUICKSTART.md). Moreover, the type system is stricter than c, which prevents common bugs (flaws) of the c language. Memory safety is also a primary concern. As for c compatibility, the language is bidirectionally compatible with c (c can be used in ML, ML can be used in c).

Language-specific features:

* Builtins

* Booleans

* References

* Fixed-length integers

* Fixed-length pointers

* Type inference

* Heredocs

* Aliases

* Defers

* Imports

* Namespaces

* Hygienic macros

* Function overloading

* Uniform function call syntax (UFCS)

* Multi-line statements

Features:

* Modern

* Compiled

* Strongly typed

* Function overloading

* Hygienic macro system

* C bidirectional compatibility

* Uniform function call syntax (UFCS)

* Easy to learn and use

* Flat learning curve
We just had:

- a global pandemic that killed millions
- a shutdown of most industry for months
- a shutdown of most travel for 2 years
- a cut off of trade with one of the world's leading energy suppliers

And we didn't tip into recession or significant improvement. Yes, it was close. Yes, we had some inflation. Yes, we're still wobbly. But primary indicators, GDP and unemployment stayed positive.

To have only 4% unemployment after the stresses of the last five years is a gosh darn miracle and fairly convincing proof of competent stewardship over the economy.

My point, though, wasn't comparing risks with and without the vaccine. I user it only as a very recent example of potential vaccine injury being focused in a subset of the population rather than being evenly distributed.

Why do you assume that my simply raising covid or what was found to be a still comparatively small chance of myocarditis as starting some larger debate? I purposely tried to be very targeted both in the stat I reached for and how I raised it to avoid starting some larger, and unnecessary, covid debate.

> What if we ask the SI-based sequence predictor how to cure cancer? Is the “most probable” answer to that question, given its internet-scraped training data, an answer that humans find satisfying?

You defined your predictor as being able to minimize mathematical definitions following some unspecified algebra, why didn't you define it being able to run chemical and pharmacological simulations through some unspecified model too?
While I am all for immortality, an oft given answer I've seen is, when I can no longer support myself, physically. That means old and frail and unable to walk or move.

With immortality though could also come anti aging, so I'm not sure how strong that answer really is.

I think with news we have a benefit that it's generally all online, so we can link to the rating page and further link to the places where they failed. Unlike a nutrition label where you have to like buy a mass spectrometer to verify their accuracy, with news checks you can view the failed checks and links to the articles that caused them to fail and verify it yourself. But that does require the checks being really basic; things that could be open to a lot of interpretation wouldn't work, cause folks could then argue the interpretation is biased.
I'm confused that in a diagram on the page, the BGR LED frequencies (particularly R) don't seem to all align with the peak sensitivity frequency of the film. It still seems like you would want a broader sampling of light. Post-processing, regardless of the math involved, is cheap.

At least one podcast I listen to (If Books Could Kill) seems to place The Atlantic in the "reactionary center" or at least sympathetic to it. I don't fully grok the term, but it mainly seems to include people who sit near the center political, generally view themselves as progressives, but feel that things have gone too far and therefore push against the supposed excesses of the left.
The gateway/ELB has inbound ports and 'listens' on the WAN interface for incoming connections. Therefore it can be subject to external network attacks, and be compromised if a CVE etc exists.

Zscaler Private Access makes outbound connections so that you can deny all inbound connections and not be subject to external network attacks. It also creates application-specific connections, rather than a full tunnel so that each connection is inherently microsegemented and inaccessible to anything outside of that tunnel.

We do the same thing on the open source project I work on, OpenZiti (https://github.com/openziti), though our platform is more like ZPA on steroids.

I think it's a natural state for an individual to want to remain existing. Otherwise we would all kill ourselves young.
That is not what they are suggesting though. They are simply making an analogy to a very real phenomenon in the deaf community. That they are deaf or are disabled is incidental, it could be any sort of community where they make rationalizations and then hate those who shatter their beliefs.

The UK is also relatively unique in extending full passenger rights even to split tickets as long as you adhere to the usual minimum connection times. (Apparently not out of the goodness of the train operating companies, though, but rather some interpretation of UK contract and customer protection laws which seem to demand equal treatment even for separately bought tickets.)
I don’t buy the idea that it’s mainly because of network complexity and line length. Local lines, even ones that don’t share tracks with any other trains, are routinely cancelled or delayed, as well. Other large countries manage to run trains on time (Japan, Spain…).

DB is uniquely bad and I don’t think we should be making excuses for them.
".. and let that be a lesson to the rest of you"
This is a common problem for developer founders. You have the skills needed to build something cool and you recognize that others might be willing to pay you money to use the thing you built; but you don't have the sales and marketing skills necessary to make it a widespread success.

You are also not flush with capital from a VC or angel investor, so you can't just hire what you are missing. All you can really offer is an equity stake in a 'potentially valuable' business.

It is very challenging to decide just how much equity you must part with in order to attract the talent you need. Everyone can throw in their two cents without knowing much of the specifics for your particular case. Take any such advice with a grain of salt. The 'right' amount could be anywhere from 10% to half of the company. There are no magic formulas to determine what is best.
If it’s been 3 years since you reported a vulnerability, they’ve done nothing, and you can confirm the vulnerability still exists, you should tell the public about it since you’ve done your part as far as responsible disclosure is concerned—the public should know.
I recommend picking up "NYTimes complete front pages" from ~1850-2000. You can see for yourself how the news was so much more intelligent in the 1800's.

Not UB, illegal. Per ECMA 335, II.10.7:

It is possible to overlap fields in this way, though offsets occupied by an object reference shall not overlap with offsets occupied by a built-in value type or a part of another object reference.

Per .NET 8.0:

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
var s = new S { Bar = "Baz" };
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Explicit)]
public struct S {
[FieldOffset(0)] public UInt64 Foo;
[FieldOffset(0)] public Object Bar;
}

compiles, but throws

System.TypeLoadException: Could not load type 'S' from assembly 'foo, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' because it contains an object field at offset 0 that is incorrectly aligned or overlapped by a non-object field.

Interestingly, this code elicits a warning

ILC: Method '[foo]Program.<Main>$(string[])' will always throw because: Failed to load type 'S' from assembly 'foo, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' because of field offset '0'

The Weirdest Stuff We've Sent into Orbit
Blue-rays would have been either done by telecine https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/283479247780 (From what I recall its nominally a real time machine). That used flourecent light sources (although I never worked on it, so that could be a lie.)

or by this https://www.filmlight.ltd.uk/products/northlight/overview_nl... a non realtime scanner with "perfect" registration. Again I can't remember the light source, but I suspect its probably an arc gap like large projectors. I do know that it has a massive cooling chamber to make sure it doesn't heat the film though. That scanner is a non-realtime CCD slit scanner.
"Not enormously so". In particular, it doesn't counter the argument I was making. For the Shuttle, for example, the value of the astronaut lives, even including $15 M in training costs, was an order of magnitude less than the cost of the orbiter itself.
I'm a subscriber and read the Economist on my phone almost entirely - sometimes on desktop - I dropped the print subscription as it takes nearly a week to be delivered to me. I read pretty much only the weekly (which is made available late on Thursdays UK time) on the app- it's a button at the bottom of the app - and very often do so offline. I mostly ignore the articles suggested during the week.
Why interpret at all? Back in the mid to early 90's I started embedding C++ compilers into the game engines I wrote, where the "game scripting language" was just #define macros hiding the C++ syntax so the game level developers, who worked in this script, could be basically anyone that could code. Their "script" would compile to a DLL that was hot loaded. What they were doing in their scripts would compile in under 5 seconds, and they were good to go. If they ran into problems, one of the game engine developers would just run their "script" in the IDE debugger.

Borrowed this idea from Nothing Real, the developers of Shake, the video/film compositing system.
