"Color Appearance and the end of Hering’s Opponent-Colors Theory" basically confirms the opponent process as Utility-Based Coding starts from the exact same principle, and only disputes the way Opponent-Colors Theory attempts to explain some color perception phenomena. Understanding of opponent process dates far back before we discovered that this is actually what our brains are doing and there were some wacky attempts for justifying it involved before that indeed.

The part we're talking about is a biological fact - you just have to keep in mind that words "blue", "green", "red" and "yellow" in this context are actually referring to complex spectral responses of LMS space (where "red" includes parts of "blue" etc.).
I think "in its very borders" was supposed to mean "to its very borders"

And we could forgive them for that small particular exaggeration, if that was all it was. But they took extra special care to double down on the "pushing" part, and dial it up a notch, to "shoving [it] its borders", which is unmistakably an intentional use of emotionally manipulative language. Which is the precise moment which qualifies what they said as propaganda.

As to what you're saying:

Ukraine in NATO being "the brightest of red lines"

Except there was no concrete "push" in Ukraine's case.

Ukraine's NATO membership application was formally rejected by NATO in 2008. This was very, very big news at the time, and Merkel still can't keep bragging about it.† Despite NATO's also offering some secondary, mollifying words about Ukraine "eventually" joining the alliance, there was no significant action taken to move that forward in the critical window of 2008-2014, when Russia invaded.

In fact, in 2010 Ukraine's path to NATO took a very significant step backward, when its parliament voted to abandon the goal of NATO membership and re-affirm Ukraine's neutral status.

And as for the phrase "brightest of red lines": If you actually pull up the text of the cable, it specifically refers to the MAP, or Membership Application Plan, which was explicitly denied to Ukraine in 2008, as indicated above. Precisely due the level-headed advice of people like Burns et all. But Russia invaded in 2014 and 2022 anyway. Because its actual reasons were never rationally connected to NATO expansion in the first place.

And yet - whatever sources you've been reading seem to have left you with the impression that Burns's "brightest of red lines" had in fact been crossed, and that this is what "caused" the invasion.

Why is that?

I started to like signed overflow rules, because it is really easy to find problems using sanitizers.

The strict aliasing rules are not violated by typical POSIX socket code as a cast to a different pointer type, i.e. `struct sockaddr` by itself is well-defined behavior. (and POSIX could of course just define something even if ISO C leaves it undefined, but I don't think this is needed here)
Yes it different but it does work to increase the bid which is the goal of an auction, discover the best price an item can be sold for in a reasonably constrained time. The fact that it's worse of you as a bidder hoping to get a deal is actually good for it as an auction design.

There's also some assumptions built into these analyses that there's at least two people who have a reasonable perception of the value of an item. Things get massively more difficult to analyze when you start including changes in perceived value.

>Many people had contributed their efforts to the Redis project for free - both in terms of code but also in advocacy, writing tutorials, publishing example code etc - and when they did that it was under the understanding that project would remain under the same open source license. It honestly felt like a betrayal of trust

I'm not seeing this being a factor in the broader community of users. Redis is still 'go-to' solution in its space. Haven't yet had anyone bring this up.

>I do also see these kinds of license trends as harmful to open source generally. It used to be that you could pick an open source project and build a business on it and expect that the project would stay available to you under those well understood terms. That's not the case any more - not just because of Redis, there are a number of other high-profile license rug-pulling projects. I'm sad about that.

I think the biggest thing is - that you acknowledge- that companies (particularly big businesses, like the cloud and service providers) build entire lines of business on this tech without contributing back, monetarily or otherwise, or even worse, try to shorehorn a project into prioritizing what they want over what may be better for the long term health of the community.

These license changes I've seen so far are all attempts to address that. How else are they able to do it with any long term success? They already aren't getting the funding they're looking for, clearly, while businesses build multi million and in some cases billion+ dollar businesses on top of the technology.

I'd argue that old permissive licenses aren't sustainable in the long run for any project like Redis

I can't comment on why the model gave you that code, but I can tell you why it was not correct.

`queue.remove(0)` gives you an `int[]`, which is also what you were assigning to `current`. So logically it's a single element, not an iterable. If you had wanted to iterate over each item in the array, it would need to be:

```
for (int[] current : queue) {
for (int c : current) {
// ...do stuff...
}
}
```

Alternatively, if you wanted to iterate over each element in the queue and treat the int array as a single element, the revised solution is the correct one.

Yes, it really does matter.
The concept that "language evolves" is absolutely valid when you're talking about the introduction of new words and phrases and adapting existing words to new purposes.

It's not the principle to invoke when you're talking about simply making logical mistakes. A question mark is used at the end of a question, not a statement. "How it works" is a statement. "How does it work?" would be the way to word the same CTA as a question.

Details matter because they add up to an overall impression of the quality of your work. Think of it as the "Brown M&Ms" principle, if you're familiar with that story. (Google it if you're not, it's a great anecdote.)
They're never going to make enthusiasts like you happy because the vehicle needs to sell to a mass market, not the kind of person who has owned a Scout 80 for 18 years.

I think you're not in a marketing mindset if you think that any significant amount of people are to buy a new Scout for off-roading. Premium-priced vehicles are more about image than the implied capabilities of that image.

Porsche sells more four door vehicles than two door sports cars. You might say that's not a real Porsche in the spirit of a Porsche, but it is what it is. It sells, and the average person doesn't need a two door car with no trunk or an off-road truck that is painful on the road. They usually need a family vehicle for mundane domestic life.
We should expect that there will be at some point winning lottery ticket floating in space.

I don’t think we should expect to see them, though, because they are probably very far away in time and/or space.

Also the concept of a winning lottery ticket would seem to require the existence of a lottery game, which would seem to require some sort of society to play it. We are probably not the minimal working example of a society that is able to invent a lottery, but I bet that society is closer to us in complexity than it is to a scrap of paper.
Thank you for your comment! To clarify, it's not just about ranking countries based on money paid—it's more of a fun, interactive experiment where users can buy a pixel and assign it to a country.

Poor reception is rapidly becoming a non-issue for most of the developed world. I can’t think of the last time I had poor reception (in America) and wasn’t on an airplane.

As the global human population increasingly urbanizes, it’ll become increasingly easy to blanket it with cell towers. Poor(er) regions of the world will increase reception more slowly, but they’re also more likely to have devices that don’t support on-device models.

If you want to build a scalable SaaS, one of your priorities is deciding on how you want to build your web application. This is super important if you do not have any tech background and decide to go for a no-code or build it yourself solution.

If you are looking for a Bubble.io alternative due to high recurring costs, not owning the code and customization limitations, you should check PagePalooza.com.

In one sentence: PagePalooza is a platform that you can generate an informative website from a single prompt to kick-start, and create custom engineering tasks that are developed by a real software engineer, on top of the generated and edited website.

You pay one-time fees for these tasks, own the code and have no scalability or customization limits. You track tasks in your dashboard, leave comments to engineers, get replies and scale one task at at time.

PagePalooza engineers also love showing and teaching founders how their web application is working under the hood. Understanding how your application is working should also be a priority whatever way you choose to build your app.

Here the process works on PagePalooza
PagePalooza has a website editor for the benefit of both you and the engineers. You can work on the front-end website, and the engineers can work on your custom requirements which can be an API (backend + database) or a custom front-end page.

01: Generate Website
You start by generating a website from a single prompt. Try to provide a clear and concise description of your web idea. This step establishes the foundation for your site’s purpose and content. The more information you provide, the better the outcome will be, resulting in a more tailored solution.

The generated website can also help the engineers understand your idea since it will look like a presentation.

02: Build
After your website is generated, you can directly assign a software engineer and request a customization. A customization can be a new landing page or a core feature.

Building an MVP will surely involve calls and messages. PagePalooza allows you to scale one task at a time which also means building a trust with the engineers along with building and scaling your application.

03: Launch Your Website
After all the customizations have been completed, you just need to add your domain. Some founders launch with a single core feature such as a questionnaire and a result page.

PagePalooza engineers can also be consulted to give you the best solution for your custom requirements. Sometimes, using an Excel sheet as a database, is better than creating a database on something like AWS. This will also lead to a lower cost for that task since it doesnt require building a backend API.

You will be able to manage engineering tasks and only pay a one-time payment instead of a recurring fee.

According to Reddit, applications built with Bubble and that have an average of 60 users per day, the monthly fee would be around $300–$400 USD. On PagePalooza you will be able to build an MVP with maybe a 6 month worth of monthly fees. You will own your code, have no scalability limits, and no recurring fees.

I do wonder how much affect it has. At least in the US most insurance companies won't cover them (unless you already have diabetes, for example) and at over $1,000 a month I can't see how the people who could really benefit from this to lower the numbers can possibly afford it.

>The Odin lsp I found (ols) is not official and not made by gingerBill. Which, again, is fine

Ginger Bill is just the creator of the language. He is already hands full with the front end and back end of the language alone. You pointing out "its fine" makes it seem like you expect him to work on LSP, web site, marketing and everything else all by himself, which he can't and I personally think he won't. LSP is a big mess and it is alright to not prioritize LSP and focus on working on the core language itself, especially if marketing is not a serious concern.
> Fucking compilers, man.

They're just acting as agents that derive the logical consequences of the code.

The fact that the given example code is "surprising" is analogous to this mathematical derivation:

a = b
a*a = b*a
a*a - b*b = b*a - b*b
(a - b)(a + b) = b(a - b)
(a - b)(a + b)/(a - b) = b(a - b)/(a - b)
^ Divide by 0, undefined behavior!
Everything below is not necessarily true.
a + b = b
b + b = b
2b = b
2 = 1
2 - 1 = 1 - 1
1 = 0

The source of truth about what is/isn't allowed is the C standard, not your personal simplified model of it that may contain dangerous misconceptions. The fact that your mental model doesn't match the document is an education problem, not a problem with the compiler.
It's not disingenuous. The HN example was literally the first one I tried. It's what happens in the real world. The real world doesn't adhere to standards, much of the time.

This is certainly not true. Many programmers also learned to the use tools available to write reasonably safe code in C. I do not personally find this problematic.
I think it's reasonable to assume that GP clearly meant the C standard being conceived, as, obviously, K&R's C implementation of the language was ad hoc rather than exhibiting any prescribed specification.
With the accelerating progress, the "be ready to look again" is becoming a full time job that we need to be able to delegate in some way, and I haven't found anything better than benchmarks, leaderboards and reviews.

I don’t know in this case specifically. In the typical case though I’ve seen corporate charters enhance fiduciary duties, I’ve seen them specify auction procedures, I’ve seen them give certain classes certain rights, and most importantly for this case I’ve seen them define corporate governance during the auction sale.

So potentially has massive implications for the auction and its fairness.
