For the most part you really only need to know Enum.map, Enum.reduce and if you really hate recursion, Enum.reduce_while

And the nice thing is that those are highly imperative/declarative functionals.

Edit: ok, also "returning stuff out of if and case statements". That one kept triggering a python developer I had, had to remind him something like 20 times. Elixir would be way better if it had 'no shadowing variables' rules.
Thanks for this. In general I'm in favour of products removing the dates so that people don't chuck out perfectly good food based on superstition/misguided obedience, but an annoying side-effect is that if we have two unopened packs of the same product it's hard to know which is older. By sheer bad luck, an old pack could hang around indefinitely and go off.

I was thinking a possible solution would be a simple numerical counter (e.g. days since 1 Jan 2000), which can't be easily decoded by eye, but allowed you to rank items easily by age.
I want to shout out a specific man quoted in the article.

> “I’ve been doing this for 46 years and it’s never been like this,” says Alabama meteorologist James Spann.

I grew up in Alabama, and I am positive James Spann has saved my life more than once with his tornado outbreak coverage. I can still hear him saying, "get to shelter now". He was a comforting voice at 2am when you and your family are huddled in the most central room of your house because mother nature is actively trying to kill you.
A bit of additional information.

NetBEUI, which was originally part of a unified NETBIOS, before the latter became what remained after the API separated out due to the rise of routed networks was an IBM invention.

NetBEUI wasn't dependant on Ethernet, and in the late 80s ARCNET was quite popular because it was cheaper and more reliable than coax based Ethernet, especially with thinnet T adapters.

Tokenring is closer IBMs response to the DIX consortium getting the ISO to adopt Ethernet as a standard, trying to maintain the domonice they had with SNA.

By the time windows 95 was released, inexpensive twisted pair Ethernet was quite popular. But when that physical layer market was developing LAN segment communications were the main drivers.

Novell releasing low cost ne2000 cards had a lot to do with Ethernet winning out in systems that were small enough to not be forced into proprietary solutions.

I don't know, I think the biggest difference is that the view we have of government isn't heavily curated by a few major papers and news broadcasts.

I read an Atlantic article the other day where a lit professor from Columbia University said that he has students nowadays who admit to having never read a book cover to cover. Ones that have tend to say their favorite book is something like Percy Jackson. They also can't focus on a small poem. This confirms what a teacher I know has been saying for a long time: highschool kids since around the class of 2010 are getting very noticably stupider.

I'm beginning to wonder if social media really has caused kids to miss key developmental stages. Parents being on their phones has led to kids hearing a substantially reduced vocabulary, these kids also receive less interaction from their parents and interact less with their environments and other kids. This stuff is really important for brain development, and we've replaced it with an iPhone.

I don't think social media started this, just accelerated the trend. I do think commercialized media for decades now has really been a driver of insipid banality.

I am being broad but to be more specific, if we classify games across two dimensions, one being tall (aka systems) versus wide (aka content), then I can't think of a single game that is more tall than wide. At best you get games which are squares, like tetris and pacman where a small amount of systems and a small amount of content go together.

For the vast majority of games they are very wide. Including technical platformers, which will have very finetuned movement systems, but they must be accompanied by a lot of equally finetuned levels. Another way of seeing it is that content is the "space" which your systems are expressed in, and more expressive systems require more space. A complex combat system will demand more enemy characters for its complexity to be relevant.

But I was only speaking in terms of programmers' understanding the nature of game production, rather than their actual contribution to the game. Of course there are very programming forward games, and entire genres driven first and foremost by innovative gameplay code. But even in those games and genres the programmer must understand that on top of the unique features that are being programmed, most of the important work will still be content creation. It's the nature of the beast. I'm a programmer who had to learn this the hard way. It's nothing like a software startup. It's more like a movie production with a software project inside.

This is actually the result of Facebook, youtube the hyper focus on surfacing a topic a post you see share or like to keep you engaged. You see a post share it with your friends Facebook algo see your interest shows your a hundred and keeps taking deeper down the rabbit whole. So the main reason for this is social media. A few years ago I used to argue with family and friends over such stupid topics to tell them it is wrong but mostly keep quite or ignore as my mental health is more important to me.
Is this really indicative of a broad societal trend, or is it just one guy with an LLM and some burner emails?

You've got to look at rates. I'd place a substantial bet that the percentage of professors, or even just college grads, who believe that is lower than in the general population. (Though you have to be specific about the question. We can control the weather in some very limited ways, but we can't, for example, trigger a hurricane. Or prevent one.)
> the patents for weather technologies are very real

Would you cite some of them, then? Especially ones that are not just "weather technologies" but are capable of creating, amplifying, and/or steering hurricanes?
One doesn't need to be able to build the thing they patent. I've seen conspiracy theorist link to weather technology patents but they are things like "create a fog", which I think we'll both agree is SLIGHTLY less energetic than the current extreme weather, so if you know of a patent for and evidence of a working hurricane machine I'd like to see it. We can't just say "well they seed rain, therefore they have a hurricane machine".

It doesn't matter "why" someone chooses to believe a conspiracy theory. What matters is how they came to be an adult that still believes in conspiracy theories - and the failure lies somewhere between bad parenting and the education system, and definitely not with meteorologists, even IF the public agency that employs meteorologists was involved in a scandal.

The search index lives fully in memory as it is not that big since it is only 17363 comics. This does mean that it is rebuilt every startup, but that does not take long compared to the month long uptime it usually has.

The amount of hops in the beers from that story were about as bitter as a common blonde ale.

The modern IPA is nothing like that anymore. Also its the aroma compounds of hops that breaks down so fast, not the bittering aspects.This is why you can store a Russian imperial stout (high hop bitterness, low hop aroma, very high abv) but not normally a double/triple IPA (high hop bitterness, high hop aroma, high abv) and defiantly not age a normal IPA or session IPA (high hop aroma, low abv).

*Some overly malty double and triple IPAs will age into a nice barley wine if given enough time.
I won't say "less science based" but I will say "mixes science and politics".

For example, there were covid lockdowns because "science" but then if anyone wanted to participate in the George Floyd protests and join a huge crowd of people that was A-OK, no pushback on that, no "scientific" worries about virus transmittal applied.

In that case "science" just becomes another tool to suppress the other side.
To be fair, this is what academics in basically every field do.

If you prove a useless result about an exotic construction in your niche topology, you mention that recently topology has been successfully applied i.e. in data science. If you study some pathological convergencs properties if unheard of stochastic processes, you cite Black-Scholes equation and remind the reader of its importance in finance.

Indeed, this is how the game is played.
America spends $15k per child for education. That is a ridiculous amount of funding. I think most teachers are of the opinion that the educational decline is due to NCLB, Common Core, and other top-down initiatives that give them less power yet more responsibilities. Many teachers complain that 1-2 students disrupt a class of 25-30 students, but they can't do anything about it.

snorting means it is absorbed into the bloodstream in your nose - that is very fast.

The general idea of types with a fixed layout seems great, but I'm a lot more dubious about the idea of unsafe blocks. The web is supposed to be a sandbox where we run untrusted code and with pretty good certainty expect that it can't crash the computer. Allowing untrusted code to specify "hey let me do stuff that can cause data races if not done correctly" is just asking for trouble, and also exploits. If shared structs are going to be adopted I think they probably need to be immutable after creation, or at the very least only modified with atomic operations.
Oof. What was the point of that article ? It felt like an unnecessary tough read.

The hops are somewhat antibacterial, so they can help against contamination, but the hop flavors break down over time, and light and oxidation are what "skunk" a beer.
Yes, the author has a good point in a vacuum, but used a bad example to highlight that point in practice. Even for the minority of the audience who hasn't seen the movie yet, they almost certainly know what happens due to cultural osmosis. Children are probably the only group who could potentially be spoiled and let's just say I don't think the rerelease of 40+ year old R rated movie is necessarily targeted at children.

Agreed, I won't absolve the left from having some loonies. But they are recognized as the loonies they are. On the right it has become mainstream. The things I hear from friends and family are just mind blowing, and they think what they're saying is normal. So much anger, so much venom.
That was a good skim for me as someone who implemented one of the first independent mega.nz clients. Useful to know especially about structure authentication and ability to swap metadata on files and move files/chunks of files around when server is compromised, when there's no e2e authentication for this. Lots of traps all around. :)

Looks like the safest bet is still to just tar everything and encrypt/sign the result in one go.

I wonder how vulnerable eg. Linux filesystem level encryption is to these kinds of attacks...
> If the economy were stronger and more productive people could earn higher salaries

The issue is Portugal is very business unfriendly and human capital is weak.

It's hard to make the case to invest in Portugal when you can invest a similar amount in neighboring Spain and get a much better return.

Nor do local businesses earn enough to pay comparable to higher income countries in the Single Market - especially because Portugal essentially penalizes large employers

This means the only way to make up the salary differnce that is the cause of the brain drain is to decrease taxes for early career Portuguese.

Denmark and Portugal are nowhere near the same level of development, and what works for Denmark does not work for Portugal.

Excerpt from the article: >The current proposal would apply to everyone under 35.
I initially didn't like the high level idea, but I warmed up to it. My only concern is that the constructor isn't guaranteed to define the same fields with the same types, which kind of defeats the point.

I'd improve this proposal in two ways:

1. Explicitly define the layout with types. It's new syntax already, you can be spicy here.

2. Define a way for structs to be directly read into and out of ArrayBuffers. Fixed layout memory and serialization go hand in hand. Obviously a lot of unanswered questions here but that's the point of the process.

The unsafe block stuff, frankly, seems like it should be part of a separate proposal.
Yes, that's certainly an odd argument. Why would I do that when I'm happy with the service I'm paying for? Especially when it's the best way to support the creators I enjoy, since they get a much bigger share of revenue from Premium views than regular views.
It's hard to take anyone concerned about the 'performance ceilings' in javascript object creation seriously at this point.
Isn't it really no different to what you can already do with WASM threads though? C/C++ or unsafe Rust compiled to WASM can have data races, but the worst it can do is crash the WASM instance, just like how you can have use-after-frees or out-of-bounds array accesses in WASM but the blast radius is confined to the instance.

Granted, a JS runtime is significantly more complex than a WASM runtime so there is more room for error.

Alternate Theory:

This is purely the result of "too much news". Breathless coverage of every little detail means every little mis-step blows up to infinity, quickly eroding trust.
