You figured out all the letters of the acronym. I'm kinda impressed :) I should probably state it in the documentation, but I made the names kinda comically verbose and ugly to imply that, while these names will always be valid, presumably shorter nicer aliases will be more commonly used. Choosing nice names isn't really part of my skill set. I may be subconsciously hoping the user community will at some point come up with a set of nicer aliases that will just be adopted as de facto standard :)

"rsv" stands for "requires static verification" (to ensure safety). A lot of elements in the library get their safety enforcement via the type system and aren't really dependent on an analyzer like scpptool for their safety. The ones that are generally go in the "rsv" namespace.

I can't remember what "mse" stands for right now. I'm pretty sure the "s" stands for "safe" or "safety". At one point, and possibly still, the idea was to support entities maintaining their own version of the library if they wanted (to completely eliminate dependency risk). In that case one might want to change all the "mse" namespace references to their own namespace name. scpptool is coded to allow you to specify the base namespace of your version of the library.

> There are some other practical issues with the project, such as inconsistent licensing annotations

Any licensing issue is just me being careless/lazy I assume. I don't intend for there to be any restrictions. I think I just tried to make everything original to the project use the boost license, which seems totally permissive to me. If I need to do something to fix the licenses, let me know.

> the fact that it seems to depend on specific Clang versions (and thus will probably bitrot if it stops being maintained)

The only reason there is any dependency on clang version is because the clang libraries keep making breaking changes on successive versions. It used to be really bad, but these days they're generally minor breakages. At this point if someone doesn't want to wait to update the version of clang that scpptool uses, it's pretty much just a matter of doing a search-and-replace for the version number in the build script and makefile, and then fixing whatever annoying thing the new version broke. A lot of times it's them slightly reorganizing the (large) set of clang libraries scpptool needs to build against (which requires modifying the makefile). One of the goals of this project is to be as small of a dependency risk as possible. I think it compares favorably to some of the alternative solutions in that regard.

good catch! It is only mentioned at the end of the install section: http://ciel-lang.org/#/install?id=use-in-the-repl-and-in-new...

This feature is based on generic-cl, a high quality library. To be franc, I didn't test much the integration with generic-cl, it's on the todo list. When I started out, I was carving for a library like this. Now, I don't feel the need anymore.
Last time the dictator threatened X to arrest their lawyer in the country, so X abandoned their operations in the country.
"maliciously fabricated side-by-side images of various advertisers’ posts on Plaintiff’s social media platform X depicted next to neo-Nazi or 2 other extremist content, and portrayed these designed images as if they were what the average user experiences on the X platform. Plaintiff asserts that Defendants proceeded with this course of action in an effort to publicly portray X as a social media platform dominated by neo-Nazism and anti-Semitism, and thereby alienate major advertisers, publishers, and users away from the X platform, intending to harm it."

It depends on how you read fabricated. I have no legal background so I have no idea exactly how to interpret it. Does it mean that they made it up? Or does it mean that they use roundabout ways to achieve it that a normal user would never do but then imply this happens very regularly?

I think they probably mean the second one for it to make sense to me. In that context I can see the argument making some kind of sense. I do not know if they will win but I can see why the judge allowed it to go to actual court.
It won't be for long. That can only exist because of the FDA Shortage List, and with the official manufacturers releasing single dose vials, it is only a matter of "when" not "if" it won't be classed as shortage, and you're back to paying $1K.
Compounded is amazingly cheap particularly when you start because a single bottle of compounded Wegovy is many doses at the lowest recommended dosage levels. I think the first bottle cost me $200 and lasted two months, possibly longer. Wegovy would be $1300/mo at Costco without insurance. Absurd.
It's somewhat unclear exactly what was shared and how. The article and the linked article about the data breach itself suggested that Goodwolf downloaded the data to verify its contents and then showed the data to a reporter, but he didn't actually release any data, nor distribute it into the permanent possession of the reporter. This is akin to Boeing saying "We had no knowledge of the 737 MAX's problems", and then an employee showing screenshots of confidential memos to the media saying "Yes you did, here is the truth."

I agree that creating a website where you can look up a name and see if they've been part of a police investigation is a bad idea, but he didn't actually do that, he only had plans to.
Perfect. I set up a time for next week. Looking forward to it!
Where is this documentation? Honestly I don't see much here. I'd call this a readme, not documentation.
Part of the concern is "I can keep it longer if I take care of it or if I keep track of it properly", eg if it gets lost or ruined its due to some lack of care by the end user, vs "I only get to keep it until some third party decides I don't get to have it any more".
> …we can’t blame corporations alone.

ok, but we can very much start with blaming corporations. sure, there are other factors at play, these are very large systems acting on individuals.

that’s the point. corporations are sufficiently complex and large to manipulate the system.

individuals rarely are, and when they do, it is often by forming a corporation around themselves. influencers are faces for larger operations, they have employees, payroll… just like a more traditional brick and mortar.

> what did we do wrong if it caused us to stop having kids at replacement rate?

Gave people freedom via women’s rights, a somewhat peaceful society, and birth control. The previously high fertility rates were entirely a consequence of Mother Nature giving men more physical power than women, and women not being able to control their fertility.
1X Unveils Neo Beta, a Humanoid Robot for the Home
Einstein was enamored with the philosophies of Schopenhauer and Spinoza, in Schopenhauer's conception of the will and Spinoza's pantheism. The God of Spinoza (or indeed Einstein) is strictly deterministic, and we are all a part of such a God, as is all of nature. Hence his quote 'God does not play dice', and in part it explains Einstein's philosophical commitment against some of the indeterministic interpretations of quantum physics being ultimately true.

When I was a kid you could buy a browser in an electronics store :)
You're preaching to the choir, but even preaching needs to be truthful and I don't think calling Mozilla ad-tech or suggesting that it's just as bad as Google is remotely true. This is where "the perfect is the enemy of the good" comes from.

I mean, what do we have now? Google and a bunch of middle-man ad techs are hoovering up everything they can get, including a crap-ton of stuff that browsers can't affect at all, and wink-wink-promising that they anonymize some of it in some cases even though no one can verify that. A world in which the subset of that data that passes through a browser has been provably anonymized would seem to be strictly better, even if you still don't like it.
CD's used to cost 20 bucks, artists used to make money on their sales.

Now they don't.

There are movies that "don't make money" because of shady accounting practices.

And I paid 100 bucks for cable for the same reason that you pay 100 bucks for internet now, lack of competition.

> while nobody puts tv/movies on youtube for free

There are plenty of people creating content on YouTube for what YouTube is willing to give them... and that isn't much. They have a working model because they keep creating content, not trying to squeeze every drop from the juice (over and over).

You might want to go back and look at the Paramount Decree. We would not be here if it was extended to streaming rather than allowed to expire.

The catastrophic failure of FenPhen also cooled the industry's interest in obesity medication.

Part of the problem is that it is so slow and expensive to bring a drug to market, which encourages risk aversion. It'd be interesting if we found better regulatory and financial engineering strategies here. There is a gigantic hidden graveyard of people who have died due not having access to medications that could have been produced and approved (which may have even been massively profitable) but were it just didn't make sense to try with today's incentives.

Maybe FDA works in classes where class 0 is entirely experimental and only available to terminal patients, class 1 is shown to be safe in animals and approved only for extreme cases, class 2 evidence of safety in humans and some evidence of efficacy, and class 3 is what we have today.
that's already an extremely loaded framing from the point of view of an individualized society. For a lot of people there is meaning in taking care, and listening to their elders.

There's quite a bit of misfortune too in communities where your old family members are treated with the dignity of a used sofa cushion and shoved into the nursing home out of sight out of mind so you can self actualize and have a lot of fun.
CrowdStrike exec will testify to Congress about July's global IT meltdown
You're not going to find this in places. Youre going to find it in people. And even then, people promote themselves and politics is inescapable, but you can lower the amount of it you have to tolerate.

I go to places that just have people there, not a board where a topic is the goal, but a network where interacting with people is the goal. Mastodon was good but isn't that great anymore because of constant political flame wars. Nostr is cool, a bit heavy on the bitcoin side of things but there's a lot of interesting technical discussion. Just anywhere that there are people, that the network or platform isn't topic specific, and that your experience isn't dominated by an algorithm. That way, you can curate the people you interact with based on your criteria. Personally it's Nostr for me, and I dabble on here because there are always a couple of interesting things to read about. I'm going to reiterate, try nostr out.

I have a rule, if I can't read everything all my follows have said in the last 24 hours within 30 minutes I'm following too many people. That way I can keep up, but if I want to dive deeper in conversation I can. Also it keeps a bar of quality for you to curate.

I avoid people with tons of follows and followers. A couple hundred follows is about the limit, a thousand followers is also. Those people just can't see everything they follow, they are there for status and their follower count is their golden bull.

I avoid anyone that is constantly posting partisan political stuff, even if I agree with them. Every so often, hey what can you expect, people have ideas and express themselves, but people who are constantly Trump this Ukraine that are "problematic" and so I avoid interaction.

Memelords... Everyone loves a good meme. Some people live for the memes, and it can be amusing for a while but if your feed/circle is nothing but memes it's just noise and not really engaging at all. Laughter is fun, chucklefucks are annoying after a while.

Anyone that it feels to me like they're promoting I avoid. Selfies, shilling their company, drive by PRs to pad their CV for recruiters, web devs. It's great to talk about something youre building, or sharing a photo of a place you went, being proud of what you do, but there's a genuine quality that's hard to articulate that separates people just sharing their lives from self promoters.

I stick to those rules and beyond that will engage with anyone. If you stay at it you'll find people to talk to, build a circle to discuss interesting things, even form friendships, though they'll never replace IRL loved ones. Some might even inspire you to build something cool, or you might even inspire them to do the same.

Lack of capability in terms of what? I'm not a Gen-Zer; I grew up with a typewriter and I still prefer the keyboard.

I'm just saying social norms and needs change with the generations, and I see a lot of younger people who can't type (and maybe don't really need to, if they're not doing IT). Unless they're a programmer or writer, there's not really a common professional need to write long things anymore, as far as I can tell. If I try to do that, I'll probably just get asked to summarize it in bullet points.

I'm sure keyboards will be around for a while (they can pry mine out of my cold, dead, twitchy fingers), but typing is not the essential skill for everyone like it was in my generation. Communication will be important, obviously, but the way we communicate changes over time. My generation stopped using faxes and snail mail halfway through (and cursive was never useful for us). I wouldn't be surprised if Gen-Z and beyond come up with their own preferred ways.

And if they did really need to type, there are kids who can thumb-type faster than my parents ever could on a computer keyboard.
There is a disconnect between academic researchers and practitioners. In this case, researchers observe and organize/categorize what already exists. High-level practitioners and coaches have been using “deliberate practice” forever.

There are plenty of examples, but let's take what the great sprint coach Charlie Francis used in the 1970s and 1980s.
He used the medicine ball to encourage proper form without the sprinter having to think about form, because otherwise they would stiffen up. He alternated between tempo and sprint sessions to balance the rest and activity needed for the best nervous system performance. He understood the balance between optimal sprint form and idiosyncrasies.

Twenty-five years ago, for a couple of years, I trained in gymnastics with the local team coach. Without calling it “deliberate practice,” it was what they did day after day, which was to work on increasingly difficult skills with the support of an experienced coach who had the mental model for skill acquisition and “demonstration.”

A certain kind of nerd would salivate when there is a “book” on something, or someone has done “research” and written a “paper” with references that are there to explain that yes, water is wet, but how would you know without this paper?
The contribution of Erickson's research to coaching practice is nonexistent.
According to what I read in that article, Goodwolf didn’t release the data. The hackers released the data, the city lied about it, Goodwolf went and retrieved the publicly accessible data and gave it to journalists to prove the city’s lie.

Unless that article is seriously mischaracterising what happened, I can’t see how this is anything other than a massive civil liberties infringement by the city, who are just trying to scapegoat this Goodwolf person. All of the damages they are describing were caused by their own negligence.
So I'll turn my attention toward addressing some of the crashing/reliability that I've been neglecting. If anyone is finding it an issue right now, it may be better in the next few days or weeks. Again, feel free to post an issue in the repository if you're running into something specific you want addressed.

> I can explicitly cancel a subscription after a certain date—what is the problem with me explicitly cancelling a subscription after a certain amount of spend?

As someone also involved in billing systems for public clouds: in theory there's no difference, but in practice there is a world of difference. This is the sort of situation where the end user is commonly surprised with the consequences of their own decisions. At MGC we have some "soft shut down" processes, and we constantly hear stuff like "I know I said shut down, but this is the one situation where that really didn't make sense"; where examples are "storage which keeps backups became unavailable", "a very simple but critical user auth system disappeared", "I had no idea this was still running on my account", or "OMG not in the middle of the weekend", etc. You can build heuristics and tracking into the system to minimize these situations, but that's a lot of work.

So yeah, it is a valid use case and something many CSPs would like to provide, but implementing something that is actually better than nothing is non-trivial.

I had to do similar during the first summer of COVID to get my boat onto Lake Tahoe. Lake Tahoe (and most lakes in CA) requires boat inspections immediately prior to getting onto the water (mostly to prevent Quagga contamination). Those inspections had to be scheduled online during COVID, and there was similar supply & demand to what you describe for parking, so I wrote a bot that notified me (also via Pushover) when a slot became available.

Once I got the reservation I had to tow the boat 9 hours, praying the whole time I didn't have a drop of water on the boat, for which most inspectors will immediately fail you and send you away. The inspection crew there turned out to be pretty awesome though, and they actually washed my whole boat down with hot water which apparently kills any (baby? egg? idk) Quagga muscles.
That’s too simplistic. The situation depends on multiple parameters, including rate of children (future workers) being added, rate of automation advancement, energy supplies, and changes in length of non productive years due to technological advances.

It is obviously possible for old people to live too long so as to become a net cost to society, which means the resources used to keep them alive take from resources that could be spent elsewhere (such as on the young). In fact, that is the top political problem in almost all modern democracies, even though it is not stated that plainly.

We aren't. We've seen it with multiple very expensive US drugs that had generous "discount cards" that were withdrawn when they got popular. It is like a drug-dealer model, get them hooked, then jack up the price.

The drug companies know this is a golden goose, and they only have 13 remaining years to squeeze it.

Another vote for Astro and its themes here.

I work at a headless CMS company, and I see Astro frequently taking the place of Next and Svelte and Vue for simpler sites these days, especially for people who don't want to do a lot of coding.

You don't need to design anything or learn the intricacies of frontend, just pick a theme you like, maybe tweak the colors and fonts a bit if you must, but otherwise it's pretty much just providing your own content and the framework takes care of the rest of it.
