It's not a very narrow and non standard use of the term. A ban is a prohibition on doing or having something. That's been the standard definition as long as I can remember. Is Swahili banned in schools because they don't teach a Swahili class?

Those are almost all hyperbolic news articles. News articles are designed to stir emotion. Just because multiple click driven publications misuse a word because it drives clicks doesn't mean that's the proper use of the word. A school "banning" themselves from selling junk food isn't a ban, if they didn't allow students to eat junk food at school, that's a ban. I don't sell junk food, is that a ban because you can't buy junk food from me?

This has all gotten ridiculous.
We haven't. Even simple ones like poverty, hunger, homelessness that are just a matter of admin and money. We've been captured by self-perpetuating and effectively immortal institutions (NGO's and arguably governments) that will not let us solve them because that would mean their own death.
What about mounting it onto an actual dog?

pros:

• longer battery life
• more mobility
• easier to program
• can chase drones that are flying low
• capable of locating and disarming infantry

cons:

• May not always follow instructions
• May not always sit still
Certifying a vehicle based on a test/qualification flight that was such a failure that it was considered too risky to let the crew fly back on the vehicle sounds about as reasonable as letting Boeing self-certify their airplane safety (instead of FAA oversight), or adding an automated nosedive-the-plane system with a non-redundant sensor just to avoid some training.

Sure, it is cheap, but when, not if, it results in deaths, it will be really hard to justify why someone thought it was a reasonable choice.

Hi Sebastian and thanks so much for your feedback :)

1. So with observation an `ObserverContext` is created when using a store in a component. This "ObserverContext" tracks what signals you access in the component. This "ObserverContext" has to end its tracking when the component function exits. This is what `using` does. It runs logic when the component function exits to stop tracking signals. Then indeed we run a `useEffect`, or rather `syncExternalStore`, subscribing to the `ObserverContext` created. Traditionally you would have to wrap your component function in a higher order component, but then you have an additional import and you have to define your components as variable assignments. This also affects debugging as your components are typically not named with this signature. So yeah, think of `using` as "tracking signal access in the component scope" :)

2. So until now I have not been in a scenario where you would need to do this. Either you use a "key" on the `StoreProvider` to unmount and mount with new props. Which makes sense if the prop for example represents a user or a ticket in a project management app. Typically subscriptions created internally in the store would be its dynamic nature. That said, this does bring up a very interesting idea. We could make the props signals. So you would access the props in a store like any other signal you define in the store. I need to reflect a bit more on it and create a POC, but it is something we should implement before the official release as it would be a breaking change later. Thanks a bunch for this perspective!

3. A bit of text was lost there, but as I understand you suggest giving first class support for traditional Observables in signals? And you mean RxJS types of observables? I did reflect on this early on. Like Angular has a `toSignal` on their observables. This is something that can easily be added later given that we find a good way to execute on it. I'll experiment some more on this, thanks for bringing it up :)

4. Impact is considered a much lower level API than traditional global state management. So if you want to synchronise a signal with a url or local storage you would currently have to do that manually. But as a lower level API I hope to see people build abstractions. For example there could be a local storage sync API that looks like:

```
function MyStore() {
const count = signal(0)
const flag = signal(false)

syncLocalStorage('$SOME-KEY', { count, flag })

return {
get count() {
return count()
},
get flag() {
return flag()
}
}

}
```

In this case the `syncLocalStorage` would be a two way sync with local storage. You define the initial signals and then any changes to them will be synced to local storage. Any changes in local storage is synced back to them, including any initial value. When the store unmounts, the sync is disposed of.

But yeah, I am not sure to what degree these things should be added to the library (It adds maintenance cost which I have been hurt by before). I want to first see if the community sees these opportunities and creates abstractions :)

Again, thanks a bunch for the feedback, I hope my responses made sense and have a great day!

Is Fair Source a super set of Open Source? On other words, is any open source license automatically a fair source.

It’s not a US specific problem.

Young drunks also ride electric mopeds in European capitals, usually renting them through apps. Sometimes without even a driving license.

So while public transports might be a part of the issue, I doubt they are the root cause.

But that wasn’t my point. My point was that, although it is stupidly dangerous, since they statistically have significantly more accidents than older drivers, young people are still allowed to get a driving license and drive.

Even though they are those that stand the most to lose in terms of life expectancy.

> But the main reason for its decline, paradoxically, was its strength. Glass retailers who play by the rules of the market live off the fact that their products break, so they can sell more. A glass that didn’t break was a threat to profits.

It would be interesting to have some supporting evidence for this conspiracy theory. Perhaps the Guardian expects us to buy it because it plays into our preconceptions about evil capitalists vs. morally pure socialists.
I will remember that one.
What kind of industry wants to navigate 50 distinct full sets of laws, regulations, oversight/enforcement practices, and penalties that change at state borders but have to somehow be made to work together, at scale, in order to function. Businesses really don't want a ton of red tape involved just to send an email from your office in one state to your office in the next state over.

Federal laws are great because they can cover the majority of that stuff that applies to every state and meaning that you only have to worry about a few small changes (if any) from state to state. Federal law is more stable and can even override state laws. That's so much easier.

If every business only had the reach of a local corner grocery store, maybe state laws would be ideal, but for a national or international business the less you have to worry about local laws the better.
Evolution at the moment tremendously favors these who can bear children late in their lives. That implies being in full health longer as well.

I feel like this ascribes too much purpose to evolution. I don't know if I agree - for example, males might live longer even if it's not selected for, so long as their existence doesn't exert negative pressure. And they might anyway so long as propagation continues either way!

Probably resentment because the original OP-1 was not crazily priced for its novelty and feature set. Once it got popular it rose from $800 to $1400 and the new OP-1 Field is $2000.

Since humans are very social creatures I think it's possible that variations of humans that live longer were selected for since the elderly can help care for the younger, teach things, etc.
The patent system literally grants monopolies, on purpose. I don't know why people are surprised when patented things are priced like there's a monopoly exploiting their customers, because that's exactly what's happening and everyone knows it. But somehow people never seem to come to the conclusion that granting monopolies is not the ideal way to incentivize things.

Apple could just make it obvious when something is recording the screen. If there is an orange dot what it means is a mystery, sometimes there is no further info in control center so you have to guess was it some recent discord call or you got pwned.

It's no different from water behind a dam that pushes against a weakness, and the trickle through it enlarges the hole and the water then tears the dam apart. There is no sentience or reason behind it, but that's what happens.

Life doesn't have a goal, but life that survives and propagates becomes the only life there is.

Life also evolves into local optimums that are dead-ends.

Sentience has helped humans propagate their genes, but mosquitoes are even more successful.

From experience (not with Termux but persistent services in general) this partially works. The device will really throttle the CPU / network when the screen is off.

This means that your HTTP request instead of taking <200ms will now take 5s.

There was a website called (I believe) Arguman (way) in the past, that used this kind of thing. It allowed everyone to add arguments, rebuttals, such a thing, and up/downvote them. Last time I looked at it, it was down (still on wayback, but it was a webapp, so it never really loads anything).

My friends and I argue about "eternity is hell" all the time - how even a christian heaven would actually be hell since it's never ending. However for me, I could easily create a 20 or 30 year cycle of activities that would eternally satisfy me. It's a little silly but for example I'm starting to hanker for some old TV shows I watched 20 years ago. The argument typically goes that in eternity, you'd run out of things to do, but I just don't see how that's possible, I do things I've done before and enjoy it the second, third, fourth time around, so there's no such thing for me as "running out of things to do."

Just in time for election season, these "human interest" pieces casually begin to appear, surreptitiously stoking anti-immigrant sentiments.

The Darien Gap is still "wild" because not a lot of migrants crossed it historically. Most US migrants came from Mexico.

However, migration from Mexico has greatly decreased in recent decades. The net flow is around zero. [1] That's because Mexico is no longer an undeveloped country. Its nominal per-capita GDP is above Russia's and China's. [2] NAFTA was an important component of its success.

Mexico offers a blueprint for what needs to happen in Central and South America before we no longer face the temptation of putting children in cages at the border.

There are only a few countries left that fit the bill, such as Guatemala and El Salvador. Brazil and Venezuela have been recent additions (hence the Gap crossings.) Parenthetically, we have Putin to thank for a few of these, especially Venezuela.

I think we should reconsider the "hands off" attitude that (with a few exceptions) has prevailed since the end of the Cold War. Political deference, while culturally sensitive and insisted upon by some US-weary groups, has not turned out so great.

Direct US participation should be at least as much as in Europe and Asia, particularly financially. The IMF and World Bank don't have enough teeth, and it certainly beats spending money on cages.

The short answer is "Yes, sometimes".

Clever hand-written SIMD code is still consistently better, sometimes dramatically better. But generally speaking, I've found Clang to be pretty good at auto-vectorizing code when I've "cleared the path" so to speak, organizing the data access in ways that are SIMD friendly.

On the Windows platform, in my experience MSVC is a disaster in terms of auto-vectorization. I haven't been able to get it to consistently vectorize anything above toy examples.

I agree with that statement, but it has nothing to do with snprintf() versus e.g. strcpy_s(), where you have exactly the same requirement to pass the right size.

(Separately, there's a discussion about how many bytes you are allowed to read from the _source_, but to fix that, you need something like the Linux kernel's strscpy(), which isn't really widely supported in userspace.)
An unmanned flight back still significantly narrows the ban of what the risks are and if the return is successful, the returned craft will certainly be inspected in extreme detail.
Interesting questions. I Work in the logistics/B2B area for quite some years and know this kind of problems well. I think in-sourcing development can be beneficial if your niche has so many special requirements and this is a core application. Or you can go with a trustworthy software house as a partner to be a bit more worry-free. Our customers usually do the project management and the requirements and we are taking care of the solution's technical aspects. In my experience this makes a perfect match especially in technically "non-sexy" environments like B2B, EDIFACT. On the other hand it takes time building trust from both sides.

Well, if you accept an asspull reasoning, you could guess a typical task consists of equal parts non-cpu dependent work (disk, network), which hasn't gotten faster, single threaded work, which is allegedly twice as fast, and parallelizable work, which I assume to be infinitely fast. That gives us a timing of 1/3*(1+0.5+0) which is a 2x speedup, with the maximum achievable compared to the baseline being 3x.

So no, you are right, your computer probably isn't that much faster in practice.

A good number of those in congress intend to exploit this opportunity to push ideological and political changes while crippling the efforts of the other members to do anything to stop them. Unless/until there are enough people in congress who see this situation for the danger that it is, there's no chance of new legislation that would do that.
