Ctrl-D for REPLs always bites me with GHCi. My usual approach to quitting GHCi is:

- Press Ctrl-D, like normal

- Get confused when nothing happens

- Remember that it doesn't work in GHCi, so run `:q` instead

- Get an error message about "lexical error at character '\EOT'", due to Ctrl-D inserting an invisible char at the start of the input

- Try `:q` again, without any invisible prefix

- GHCi successfully quits

> My best rule for writing good subject lines is that they feel like they could be the subject lines of an internal email—this helps them feel natural in the inbox. For example, “Quick question”, or “Idea for better outbound” are two casual, natural-feeling subject lines.

This strategy has been in use for years and I perceive such subject lines as an indicator that an email is probably an outright scam. All senders receive a silent and permanent block from me without exception.

Maybe the author isn't aware of how much alienation he's creating for his brand.
This is your experience, but I'm not sure you can generalise it to most people's experience. I like cars - admire them, even - but my car was first and foremost a tool, and my relationship with it was as such. I did the work required to keep it running, but I didn't want to spend more time than that on it. Ditto my 3D printer.

There are a lot of things that I'm willing to give the personal touch to, but there are many things where I just don't care and just want it to work, and you can't know ahead of time what that is for everyone.

Given that, I'm more than comfortable with giving everyone the tools to Not Give A Shit:tm: for any given subject - if they want to experiment, they will, but that burden shouldn't be pushed onto everyone for every subject. After all, time spent on things you don't care about is time you can't use on the things you do care about.
> despite the drones being bigger and higher tech than retail drones.

How does anyone know how big these are? I've heard reports like this:

1. They looks larger than normal drones.
2. The look like they are operating at a height greater than 400 ft AGL.

How do they know the height? If they don't know the height, they certainly don't know the size. If it looks large, it isn't very high.

If it is large and high, I would think they would get some radar contacts.

If these are heavier than 55 pounds, I think we'd see the FAA jumping all over it. I also don't see why any LE would announce that they are actively figuring it out as they'd want to keep the element of surprise and track the drone back to the operators.

> Why isn't anyone bringing them down?

Only federal authorities can do anything to aircraft. This is in the realm of the FAA.

> How can anyone know these aren't a threat without knowing whose they are?

What kind of threat are we worried about here that wasn't around yesterday (last year)?

If the victims wanted to be victimized again just because people offer more money to continue the victimization operation, sure.

Unfortunately, giving the victims no choice in who owns this stuff means allowing it to be reused for the same harm.

I recently took a long car trip solo and was able to listen to Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety without interruption. It still holds up in that kind of scenario; you almost have to listen to whole thing nonstop to fully appreciate it.
I got hooked on Pink Floyd's "Momentary Lapse of Reason". Listened to it on a 10 hour drive back home from Houston in my custom VW beetle. It was custom because I "built" it out of several broken down beetles and so it was a tense drive home, checking my car's vitals every so often.

I have never forgotten that long intense drive home, in the summer, with no air conditioning, and playing Pink Floyd on full volume the whole way.

Because of this, "The Wall" has always been Floyd's second best album.
I'm desperate for an Android keyboard! I need to type English, Czech, and Polish. We live in the age of LLMs, they not only know the words, they know how to use them together! Shocking!

I'm not at all a no-JS person, quite the contrary, but I frequently note sites that have too much functionality instead of being more boring but also better to use. The one thing I learned from the Agile craze is that it's a good idea to start with HTML-only, then add styling, then add a dash of JS where it really helps to improve usability, looks and general enjoyment. Back then of course you couldn't do CSS animations or form validation w/out JS, so today it's even more worthwhile to implement as much functionality as feasible in HTML+CSS. It's worthwhile because done right such a site can have stronger foundations that better survive the vagaries of the web, such as NoScript users, flaky connections or being archived: the more dependencies you have, the worse any archived version will be.

I think there's a real difference between "a computer"— in this context meaning an algorithm written by a human, possibly calibrated with a small number of parameters but not trained in any meaningful sense, and a "chess model" which works as you describe.

I think the chess model would be successful at producing the desired outcome but it's not as interesting. There's something to be said for being able to write down in precise terms how to play imperfectly in a manner that feels like a single cohesive intelligence strategizing against you.

Looks like the created cell is 614 Wh/L from the above comment. Gasoline is ~2.2kWh/L [0]. So my take is that even with the created cell the density is not going to be an issue with car or grid batteries -- only <4 times the size even at this non-theoretical cell. Who knows how the packs will be configured though as I am sure airflow will be a design consideration when making larger packs.

> If I set my alarm for 7:45 am, I need it to ring when the clock says 7:45 am, wherever in the world I happen to be.

Oh I desire more from my alarms.

Ideally I would be able to set an alarm for 7:45am and mark it "all timezones by then-local clock" ... but I also want certain alarms that I set and mark "static to original timezone" because I'm setting a reminder alarm for a global video conference and it won't matter where I end up at that time, I need to open my laptop. ... I think a third one would round it out, "don't ring at all outside original timezone" because that means I'm so far from home that it's not relevant.
The much more common case seems to be families forcing treatment, effectively just prolonging the pain. People don't exactly easily come to grips with their parents dying. Some people never do.
I'd stop worrying about your skills and start looking for opportunities. Start networking and finding people who have problems that can be solved with software and have a good market fit. Lots of people say "solve your own problems first" but software developers have a very unique set of problems that 99% of people and businesses don't have. Once you start to see how other non-devs work you'll start to see enormous inefficiencies and people crying out for solutions.

SIMD is true, but the original guess is correct, and that effect is bigger!

using_map is faster because it's not allocating: it's re-using the input array. That is, it is operating on the input `v` value in place, equivalent to this:

pub fn using_map(mut v: Vec<i32>) -> Vec<i32> {
v.iter_mut().for_each(|c| *c += 1);
v
}

This is a particularly fancy optimization that Rust can perform.

I was asking you to explain what appropriate integration would mean when you write 'They exist almost as a separate society within Sweden now, unlike immigrants in Texas.'

We know there there are multiple almost separate societies in Texas, so if that's your touchstone, I don't understand it.

Brownsville, at 94% Hispanic, is a lot different from Galveston.

Regarding 'deeply non-violent', I urge you to consider that pacifism is not the same as non-violent. For example, "The Amish Keep to Themselves. And They’re Hiding a Horrifying Secret" / "A year of reporting—an exclusive partnership between Cosmo and Type Investigations—reveals a culture of incest, rape, and abuse." at https://www.typeinvestigations.org/investigation/2020/01/14/... .

Sexual violence is violence, yes?

As for "have no problem existing" I refer you to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Amish_sentiment . "Non-Amish hooligans may try to force Amish horses and buggies off the road, throw firecrackers at the horses of Amish people, throw stones at Amish people, or otherwise engage in acts of petty vandalism, harassment, and violence." Plenty of problems, like https://amishamerica.com/why-are-amish-targeted-for-harrassm... .

So, what does successful integration look like to you, in the Texas context?

> by only people of Anglo-Saxon origin

Since we were talking about Texas, I was using the localized term, which https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo#United_States correctly describes as "In many parts of the United States, especially those with high Latino populations, the term "Anglo" is applied to white Americans who are not of Latino origin. ... a synonym for non-Latino whites; that is European Americans, most of whom speak the English language, even those who are not necessarily of English or British descent."

I don't think you know enough about Texas to make substantive comparisons about societal integration.

> I feel the older you get the harder it becomes to make new friends.

With a DLP policy, you can identify, monitor, and automatically protect sensitive items across:

Microsoft 365 services such as Teams, Exchange, SharePoint, and OneDrive accounts
Office applications such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint
Windows 10, Windows 11, and macOS (three latest released versions) endpoints
non-Microsoft cloud apps
on-premises file shares and on-premises SharePoint
Fabric and Power BI workspaces
Microsoft 365 Copilot (preview)

DLP detects sensitive items by using deep content analysis, not by just a simple text scan. Content is analyzed:

For primary data matches to keywords
By the evaluation of regular expressions
By internal function validation
By secondary data matches that are in proximity to the primary data match
DLP also uses machine learning algorithms and other methods to detect content that matches your DLP policies

It’s interesting to note that performance of a for loop versus the functional-style mechanism varies by language. On Java, there is a performance penalty (possibly shrunken since Java 8) for using the FP idioms while in Rust, they end up much faster.
It's not only because of SIMD. Contrasted to many other languages (though not all) the compiler is working with code here, not an arbitrary function pointer. In essence, JS and the like are operating with this:

let result: Vec<i32> = list.into_iter().map::<_, Box<dyn Fn...>>(Box::new(transform)).collect()

Rust is able to inline the transform code right into the loop, which then becomes available for SIMD etc.

Rust further brings really nice ergonomics and comprehensive type inference to the equation, which makes it feel like writing C#/JS/whatever. JITted languages could detect and elide creating and immediately using a function pointer, but I don't think that any do.

Edit: these languages may not always allocate (specifically if nothing is captured in a closure), but the core concept remains: they erase the type, which means that they also erase the function body.

On average. Some starting positions are much less balanced than regular chess.
I wouldn’t call the Super Famicom and N64 ports unused or put them on a list surrounded by unused ports even with context. They weren’t widely used, but it wasn’t for lack of ambition on their part and SatellaView did decently enough in Nintendo’s home market. The 64DD was intended for export too, but it got delayed into oblivion until by the time it launched in Japan, the Dreamcast had already been on the market for more than a year, and the PlayStation 2 was only a few months out. It was a little too little too late for there to be much developer interest, and it’s not like the Nintendo 64 had received a stellar amount of developer support or sold particularly well to begin with.

This increased the pressure on my eyeballs, of all things, producing visual effects indistinguishable from a scintillating scotoma (but not actually those, because it's really coming from the eyeballs themselves, not the brain). The pressure difference crushed my eyeballs slightly and ruptured blood vessels, releasing floaters. They have gotten better over the last couple years but they are definitely still there.

I don't at all agree with what Jones said. I find it disgusting. But you should take a look at some of the videos of the parents. There is one, where the dad is laughing and smiling and suddenly goes up to the microphone and switches to sad dad mode.

Now being a thinking, somewhat empathetic human being I understand people handle grief differently. I don't think he was an actor. But I understand why he might be viewed that way. It seems insane to me that somehow it was lawfared that Jone's real interpretation that it looked like acting to him (it looked like acting to me, but I know it wasn't and those kids really were killed) and somehow it is his fault that he is liable for harrassment others do under the flag of agreeing with Jones' take. That has an incredibly chilling effect on speech.

Jones did lose the civil case but it was a weird one, in the right venue, at the right time, in the worst possible light, and with pretty bad representation both of himself and spotty counsel. It's not something to look at to rest your hat on for how these things will continue to be interpreted in the future.
