Memory is pretty weird with these - I find that my hands do most of the remembering, and my mind doesn't have to do much work.

Gastarbeiters were introduced after 1945 when Germany was already rich, so mentioning them is not a refutation of grandparent's "Nearly the whole developed world . . . became rich in the first place without immigrants".

Now comes cbfrench and respectfully submits the following comment.

So they’ve discovered literary form and genre. Remarkable.

To be less snarky, my wife is a lawyer, while I am an Anglican priest (cue the jokes). Both of us are in fields where certain traditional literary forms—be it statutes, contracts, biblical texts, or liturgical prayers—play important roles. These forms tend to be inherently conservative because there is the sense among practitioners of both the law and the liturgy that things can go awry if one departs too far from established conventions, so it’s better to rely upon boilerplate conventions, which can actually be more efficient in spite of their syntactical convolutions. Indeed, C.S. Lewis makes the point w/r/t liturgical vs. extemporaneous prayer that formal, customary prayer frees one up actually to pray because one isn’t having to decide with every utterance whether or not one agrees. The extemporaneous prayer may be more “straightforward,” but it imposes its own set of cognitive burdens.

I would guess that legal writing operates similarly: boilerplate constructions have generally standard and agreed-upon meanings around which many of the substantive interpretive issues have already been resolved, which makes them on the whole more efficient. What law seeks to accomplish as a genre of writing depends upon striking a difficult balance among interpretive stability, capaciousness, and definitiveness, which necessitates certain concessions to what we might consider stylistic infelicity. (Plus, those concessions keep food on my table, so I’m rather grateful for them, lol.)

It shouldn’t be surprising or noteworthy that people who are asked to compose a bit of text in a particular genre respond by writing in a way that conforms to what they understand of its generic conventions. Similarly, if I asked people to write something that could be a passage from the Gospels, most people would probably produce a text with thees, thous, and verilys and that would also likely include something about sheep and being good to other people. They would do this because in their minds that is what “the Bible” ought to sound like. Likewise, if I asked you to compose thirty seconds of ad copy for a new car, you probably aren’t going to write it in the form of an epic prologue (“Ford and the man I sing…”).

We all have baseline understandings and expectations of what conventional forms look like and sound like, which are often tied to what the particular form is trying to convey or accomplish. So, perhaps legalese is a form of “incantation” trying to conjure up its own authority, but arguably so is every other literary form. That’s just how form works: if it doesn’t establish some implicit authority (even in the most rudimentary sense of “you should pay attention to this”), it’s effectively meaningless.

Further affiant sayeth naught.
After Authy discontinued their Mac app, there was a several month period where I could install the iOS app on my Mac laptop to keep using it anyway.

It stopped being installable a few weeks ago, presumably because they unchecked this box. (I bit the bullet and started paying for 1password and using it for my TOTP needs, btw)

As a MacOS user, if you have only an iOS app and not a MacOS app, why not allow Macs to run it too? You're suggesting that if enough people allow iOS apps to be installed on Mac, MacOS will stop allowing you install apps from anything but the app store? That seems unlikely to me. If you have a Mac app and choose not to distribute it via app store, that's fine though.
Control flow and data flow of programs are modelled as graphs so that certain analysis and transformations can be applied. That involves subgraph similarities, graph searches, graph transformation rules etc.
And at the tail end, register allocation is graph coloring.

When I said uninstalling, I mean the way you can just comment out a program in the configuration file on a nix system and poof it is no longer installed in your system and it’s like it was never installed at all.

Male UK university students are 'less macho' when sharing flats with women
I agree; I believe it to be the case that even when provided with an immaculate audio consumption setup, fully wired, insulated, abyss headphones, some insane schiit amp and dac, a perfectly silent room, let the listener pick the songs, the full nine yards, maybe 1% of the population could correctly discern a stereo lossless track from a stereo 320kbps more than 50% of the time over many songs. Genetics plays a role in getting into this 1%, but the far, far bigger cause is really just experience: Its having listened to the same tracks over, and over, and over again, until you've literally learned where the imperfections in this specific 320kbps encoding of this specific song are, rather than imperfections natural to the codec itself.

That's the "dirty secret" of lossless audio: If you ask even someone in this 1% to do the same thing, but for music the experimenter picks and that they've never heard before: that 1% literally becomes 0%. Maybe there's some gigahuman audio codec engineer employed deep in a basement at Dolby HQ who knows exactly the classes of imperfections that AAC encoding imprints into tracks and also has superhuman ears and such... but its damn close to 0 humans who could do this.

What this says about why anyone cares that AM, Tidal, Qobuz, whatever offer lossless audio, or that Spotify doesn't, is certainly interesting. It does seem like a tremendous waste of bandwidth and local storage, to me. But, I totally and fully subscribe to the message of the original article: It matters to me that this quality is maintained, that it exists for those people who do care about it, and that what I am consuming is as close as possible to what the original artists intended (rather than letting a bunch of cooks into the kitchen with opinions about which hertz are more important than others).
You seem to assume you would have to rebuild the entire VM whenever any code in git changes in any way. I don't think you do: You could simply mount application code (and test data) inside the VM. In my book, the VM would merely serve to pin the most basic dependencies for running your integration / e2e tests and I don't think those would change often, so triggering a VM rebuild should produce a cache hit in 99% of the cases.

Jail time in a system where responsibility is so diffused won't happen.

Front-desk has a signed waiver? Good luck proving that it was the person on shift at the time who forged it, she doesn't remember what happened a year ago, and the existence of the fraudulent waiver isn't proof that she authored it.

Nobody's responsible, and nobody's accountable. There's a legal requirement that someone at the hospital should have done their jobs, but there's no legal requirement that forces someone particular to do them.
Apex was released in the beginning of 2019, 5.5 years ago. It started to work on Linux over 3 years later.

You can easily find articles/videos from those pre-Linux days that talk about rampant cheating. Since Linux got introduced I have not seen any drastic changes to the worse, if anything it subjectively became better.
It sounds like you haven't tuned an instrument with many strings.

The difference is sources. Sabine shows her sources prominently on screen, with searchable citations to find the original. She makes it clear in her phrasing whether she's paraphrasing a source, or passing her own judgement.

It's easy to know whether to internalize what she says when you view it critically. Ask "does the presented research seem legit, complete, and impartial?" and "is her conclusion logical?". She gives you the receipts to check. This is not the same as deciding whether to put blind faith into a comedian's off-the-cuff anecdotes and opinions.

I often disagree with her conclusions, but at least she makes it very easy to validate her chain of though, find where our views diverge, and only absorb the information I trust.

> neither of those has “the” as part of its official name

which is clearly untrue.

Yes, there are two Congos. Both of them have "the" in their official name:

-République du Congo (The smaller one, with Brazzaville)

-République démocratique du Congo (The larger one, with Kinchasa)

It is true that the official "Republic of the Congo" is typically shortened to just Congo" in everyday speech, my original point was just that there is nothing "racist" or colonial about say "The Congo". It is not called that as a slur because it's somehow lesser than e.g. Namibia, it is just that it's named after the Congo river. But I have heard many people who like to be offended have a vague idea that the "the" is somehow offensive because most countries don't have it.
Peloton is just bringing all the things people both love and hate about going to the gym to your home. This is just a copy of the gym's initiation fee.

I get this feeling a lot when reading old books. People used to be…more interesting? Or at least there were more interesting places like Paris in the 20s. Today the “artistic” hubs in the world feel boring compared to NYC in the 80s or Paris circa 1890-1930, but you wouldn’t know it if you didn’t read the older books.
Even if that were the common process, which I dispute, it's still short-sighted greed. If it costs Peloton more than a homeopathic amount of money to update a database with the new owner's info, then they're doing it wrong. That's an extra $95 of pure did-nothing-to-earn-it cash extraction.
t0mek sais "the simplest form", but the comment is fixable by changing that to "a simplest form". (For example, if hypothetically a/b and c/d where somehow the same number, and yet somehow there is no x such that a/b = xc/xd, the argument about how 2 divides into a and b also applies to c and d.)
Yep for playback, I agree, you don’t need more than 16 bits/sample or more than 44.1k playback rate. The vast majority of humans can’t hear beyond that, at least through the air… I have heard that it can go a lot higher via direct bone contact, but that’s not relevant to playing back music anyway. I just wanted to help clarify that there are real reasons to “sample” (record) something at 96khz or higher, or at 24 bits/channel/sample, but that the reasons easily get lost, and sometimes artificially or intentionally misrepresented for marketing purposes.

I kinda relate this to sporting equipment or cars or other things people buy. Like, nearly everyone on a road bike is riding and wearing race gear, which is uncomfortable, while very few people are actually training or racing. Or, people often buy cars or computers that are far faster or more powerful than they need. Those things get rationalized similarly, with claims that the extra is necessary and makes a difference, or fears that it might be needed someday, and little reflection on the downsides.
No. So why bother complaining?

Same. When we say "virtually intact", I'm guessing that means, aside from the torpedo that went through the hull?

"It caught fire, exploded and then disappeared beneath the murky waters of the North Sea off north-east Scotland in less than eight minutes."

So I wonder how much there is

"“All the brass work on the wreck, like the portholes and the breaches for the deck guns, are all still shiny … it’s probably due to the fact that she was just built so well.”"

Seems to be enough left that resembles the ship that it still captivated the finders, instead of just being "we figured out where it went down."
Have you modeled to them how to make and develop friendships? Have you tried asking them what they've tried to do to make friends?

Limiting negative stimuli isn't enough for people to automatically replace it with good stimuli. It's the same struggle as leaving an abusive relationship or toxic job. People can know something is bad, but they're much less likely to leave a bad situation if they can't imagine what the better alternative is.

For example, my Dad is terrible at making friends. His co-workers and acquaintances like him, but most of the time his only significant relationship is with his spouse and his kids. My mom was great at making friends and finding community, but her ways of relating to people seemed inaccessible and indecipherable to me as a guy.

I did and do go to clubs of various sorts, but it's a real struggle to figure out how to turn those casual acquaintances into meaningful, reciprocal friendships. As soon as I had my own struggles or wasn't obsessively invested in the club, those friendships vanished overnight. I don't know any good books or resources to learn the skill of making friends. I can definitely see how someone who had more mental health struggles or was less extroverted than I who struggled to make friends in these situations would give up on trying.

If i understand you correctly, you have 3 points.

1)you indeed meant kbps so you were not conflating with kHz.

2) you chose the kbps unit because most systems offer those as quality parameter.

3) Phase shift on 17kHz cannot be accurately adjusted with a 17kHz*2 sample rate based system.

All 3 true but... I don't want to sound too pedantic pointing out that... I think those findings do not fit the context of the parent comments.
I wonder how many people this actually applies to. Is it primarily developers who need non-app store software?

Is it very important that rack posts are 19 inches between centers, or was that a totally arbitrary decision made by AT&T 90 years ago? What's the point of 12V or 5V intermediate power rails? Is there a benefit from AC power to the host?

An intuitive grasp of the size of the US eludes a lot of Americans, let alone a lot of Europeans.

When an American says, "that is a three-day drive", they don't mean it will take three days of six hours a day with breaks every hour or two. They mean it will take three days of driving 12+ hours a day with 10-minute breaks every three or four hours. NY to LA is around 41 hours of actual driving per Google. So three consecutive 14-hour days just in the car, not counting getting a hotel room along the way, eating, using the bathroom, showering...

We use the concept of 'topics'. A topic encodes: 'The part of the index a query cares about'.

For example, given a query like "fetch user where id = 1", there could be a topic like "users:id:1" [1]

When a WAL record comes in, we find queries by their topics, and invalidate them. This triggers a refresh.

This is inspired by Figma's LiveGraph [2], which in turn is inspired by Asana's Luna [3]. The essays cover the idea in more detail, but you can also start diving into the code, at invalidator.clj [4]

[1] This is an example. Inside Instant, we encode them as a 'datalog' pattern. Something like `[:ea "1" :users/id]`

This issue isn't really about per-structure allocators at all.

It's about the idea that you are using per-thread allocators, and one of your threads allocates a lot of memory, then goes to sleep for a long time.

Per-thread allocators are orthogonal to per-structure allocators.

Agreed, roofline plots would be quite powerful in this context. From a quick search, seems like the only way to create a roofline plot for your model would be to use Nsight [1]?

Yeah that's because they're different things.

Some things refer to POC, and some to black people, and some to indigenous people etc.

You can still say black, brown, south Asian, what have you. But if you need to refer to all non-white people, you say "people of color". Which makes perfect sense to me.

There is an alternate explanation. The piano is fine. The soloist is an asshole and likes to make people jump through hoops.
