You’re of course technically correct, but in practice a truck of ammonium nitrate is basically inert on its own.

If you’re going to assume they have access to significant explosives to actually detonate pure ammonium nitrate, then you also need to consider flour and other ‘safe’ compounds due to the potential for even larger fuel air explosions.
A lot of regulations are a mess. As I understand it, agriculture drones full of fertilizer are beginning to be used throughout, makes sense. And tractors run on diesel since forever. So add diesel to the fertilizer drone now you have a viable powerful weapon... unregulated. I'm sure tens of thousands of farmers have this in their pocket right now, just not their intent.
Same with firearms. A pea shooter .22, highly regulated, felony charges everywhere. Now, a 50 caliber airgun? No gunpowder, not a firearm. They even make automatic airguns. Arguably with a large air supply and large ammo clip, and airgun could trounce some automatics, primarily because their barrels won't overheat, they might overcool though because physics of expanding gasses. And yet the humble .22 is the highly regulated one.

Some governments and regulators attempt to enumerate every possible conceivable bad thing and outlaw it. Problem is it's not enumerable, there will always be dozens of missed loopholes, which the regulations will steer people into. Parallels the warping and skewing of trying to fix an economy through proclamation versus distributed capitalism.

This thread has come up before(1), but I'll continue to argue that relativistic mass is a perfectly valid concept as much as any other, and if you disagree, you'll need arguments more substantial than it just being unpopular these days. Especially if you're trying to argue people out of using a concept that they personally find useful to aid their own understanding, just because it doesn't fit your own mathematical or aesthetic preferences.

The lower the score, the more you’ve assimilated into the SF scene. A score of 100 means you’re pure from SF.
You need more language in order to say that type punning is allowed. Implicitly, only the type of the last write is permitted reads, and anything else is undefined behavior. At least, this is my understanding based on my own read and the guidance from the GCC developers.
I think in math, and in many other fields, it is pretty normal to post all papers on arXiv. But arXiv has a lot of incorrect papers on it (tons of P vs NP papers for example), so journals are supposed to act as a filtering mechanism. How well they succeed at it is debated.

All of these laws make tracking, logging, or divulging the provided information (outside of providing it to a vendor providing the service who has the same non-retention requirements) illegal.
I don't think that's clear at all. You're both assuming "bad intentions" on the part of the author and that other readers are apt to make an association that you yourself wouldn't make.

Yeah I actually did not necessarily mean to dispute Matz's perspective there. I actually think it will benefit programming as a whole if at least one widely used language takes the path of trying to eschew explicit type annotations.

From a cursory search I can't find any languages in the C standard that disallow reading not from the last written member.

I'm familiar with such language in the C++ standard.

Edit: On the contrary, this note 92:

> 92)If the member used to read the contents of a union object is not the same as the member last used to store a value in the
object the appropriate part of the object representation of the value is reinterpreted as an object representation in the new
type as described in 6.2.6 (a process sometimes called type punning). This can possibly be a non-value representation.

Edit2: and that's specifically the text that was added by dr283. I think you might be confusing with a different DR (don't remember the number) that specifically asked if generalized type punning was possible as long as an union containing the aliased types was visible in the translation unit. I think that's still open although GCC definitely forbids it.
It does neither enforce correctness nor safety. It enforces memory safety in programs that stick to the safe subset. But don't get me wrong, Rust certainly has many good ideas and the focus on memory safety is good. I still do not think it is a great language.

The two would combine to avoid situations where people spend 5 days debugging like unity did.

That said, my personal preference is to use C instead of C++, which avoids the issues of exceptions breaking kernel expectations entirely.
Listen to audiobooks.

The amount of "spare time" most people have, time they're doing random things that don't require full focus, is enormous, at least it is for me. Arranging breakfast for the kids before the school day, doing dishes, walking to and from places, working out at the gym, etc - all of those times become moments to listen to whatever you're reading.
What would be the alternative to easily search through meta data of thousands of photos? Is there a non-proprietary database (engine or schema?), or other format that is scalable enough? I doubt that storing everything as a sidecar would be fast enough.

Just an update that we missed some bugs that were affecting new users so we've released 2.90.1 which fixes them. The linked posted has been updated with this information as well.
Where did you find that note? I do not see it in the C standard draft I linked.
It's a little odd that he recommends Loebs for Cicero and Aeschylus. They have Greek/Latin on one side and English on the other. The translations vary in quality and they are significantly more expensive than buying an English-only translation. I have a bunch of Loebs but I studied Classics and can read Greek and Latin. I would never recommend them to a friend.

Edit: Just wanted to add that Aeschylus, Euripedes, and Sophicles are great reads. You can read a whole play in one sitting. If I could recommend one from each it would be Agamemnon, The Bacchae, and Antigone. Each of those plays deeply affected me and they're fairly accessible.
I find the early votes on new comments are biased downwards; I can speculate as to why, but it usually is more than balanced out by later votes.
In response to the comment further above (so not just the article), outbound network path management is not uncommon. However we often see it presumed to be uncommon by those who haven't thought of it, or have thought of it but the ability to do it is out of their reach.

Qubes makes outbound network path management easy enough but it's not too hard to do on Linux and FreeBSD, so it can also be done on machines with modest compute resources (which may or may not be subject to the machine being an older machine) as well.
Really? In the modern .Net world (originally .Net Core) it's very common for devs to use Windows machines to write code whose CI pipelines and deployed environments are all Linux. I've seen a handful of issues with things like path separators and file system case sensitivity, but we're talking about 3 or 4 minor problems in 6-7 years that I've been using it.
Show HN: I built a green noise player to help you relax, focus, and stay calm
Sometimes, I struggle to block distractions and create a calming environment while working.
Most tools I’ve tried were either cluttered, didn’t provide the right kind of sound, or required payment.
So, I decided to build my own simple green noise player.

For context, green noise features balanced, mid-range frequencies that mimic soothing natural sounds—ideal for relaxation, focus, or creating a peaceful backdrop while working.
It’s also great for taking a mindful break during a busy day.

Right now, it’s a free, lightweight, browser-based solution.

Being neuroatypical happens in roughly even amounts between men and women.

However, while a man - unless he is wealthy, whereupon he is merely “eccentric” - will be nailed to the wall for his differences and beaten up on a constant basis for not conforming (and until the 80s, were literally beaten black and blue for failing to conform), women will mostly be forgiven by society for the exact same peculiarities. They are “acceptably eccentric” regardless of wealth or social status, whereas men could only be “acceptably eccentric” if they were exceedingly wealthy such that they didn’t even have to hold down a job at any point in their lives.

Things have gotten a lot better for men in the last few decades, and especially in the last decade with it’s open acceptance of neurodivergence, but I was born just late enough to escape the era where I would be coming home from school with serious physical injuries - meted out by teachers seeking to violently force my conformity - on pretty much a daily basis. Those tools were taken away from teachers in the 70s (in Canada) as a part of removing potential sources of abuse from the school system.
> I read an interesting book called Dateonomics and if it is to be believed (don't have a copy handy, so can't go to its original sources), a sufficient supply of educated men is why many women remain single.

I have a copy at hand, and looking through the book, my understanding of the thesis is "Women won't date down." Below is copy paste from the LibGen record, won't link to it here, you can find it easily (md5=CDB645FB7FEC5F4DBD5D97EC7989AE50, ISBN 076118208X, 9780761182085).

> It’s not that he’s just not that into you—it’s that there aren’t enough of him. And the numbers prove it. Using a combination of demographics, statistics, game theory, and number-crunching, Date-onomics tells what every single, college-educated, heterosexual, looking-for-a-partner woman needs to know: The “man deficit” is real. It’s a fascinating, if sobering read, with two critical takeaways: One, it’s not you. Two, knowledge is power, so here’s what to do about it.

> The shortage of college-educated men is not just a big-city phenomenon frustrating women in New York and L.A. Among young college grads, there are four eligible women for every three men nationwide. This unequal ratio explains not only why it’s so hard to find a date, but a host of social issues, from the college hookup culture to the reason Salt Lake City is becoming the breast implant capital of America. Then there’s the math that says that a woman’s good looks can keep men from approaching her—particularly if they feel the odds aren’t in their favor.

> Fortunately, there are also solutions: what college to attend (any with strong sciences or math), where to hang out (in New York, try a fireman’s bar), where to live (Colorado, Seattle, “Man” Jose), and why never to shy away from giving an ultimatum.

Hmm... Gemini (1.5 Flash) just aced that exact question for me:

These lines celebrate the victory of the British ship HMS Victory, led by the famous Admiral Lord Nelson, in the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805.

"Here's success unto the Victory": This line directly praises the ship itself, acknowledging its role in the successful battle.
"and crew of noble fame": This recognizes the bravery and skill of the sailors who served aboard the Victory.
"and glory to the captain": This line specifically honors Admiral Nelson, the captain of the Victory, for his leadership and strategic brilliance in the battle.
"bold Nelson was his name": This emphasizes Nelson's courage and daring, which were legendary.
The lines express admiration for the ship, its crew, and most importantly, Admiral Nelson, who became a national hero in Britain for his victory at Trafalgar.

FWIW, as someone who had multiple friends who worked closely with Andy over 5+ years and at all stages of their career (both BS / PhD) those comments reek of someone with an axe to grind. All of the many anecdotes I have about Andy paint a picture of a great advisor and mentor. I suppose I should say "shenanigans aside", but if you can't separate his jokes from his academic side you need to develop a sense of humor.

You are mistaken, and compare apples to oranges.

Population levels are not the same, this comparison is without basis.

You also assume the formal documented executions are the only deaths where people were killed and died, they are not.

About 5 minutes of 'proper' research based in method, will establish that you are mistaken and don't know what you are talking about. This is the problem when you try to have an AI think for you, you get it wrong, and potentially become delusional.

The inquisition lasted almost three centuries. At its height, Spain had a population of about 7.5 million people. Many prosecutions occurred, but few executions as part of trials. The majority of people died from maltreatment, torture, and executions (absent trials) and these records are sparse in the historical record, but there are credible records to support more died than were executed.

The mortality rate was also significantly higher than it is today, and the families of the accused individuals often died from poverty as a result of fear from guilt-by-association (if you were to include that, most don't). Additionally, the Spanish inquisition inspired surrounding countries to similar acts of terror, and in the Latin America's as well. We are only talking about Spain here. The full global death count as a result of the inquisition is much much higher.

We use variations on questions that are well known for duping inattentive humans, to test a system that we expect a priori to be incapable of such inattention.

Unless "getting easy things wrong sometimes" is an inherent property of intelligence, we should expect that a properly "intelligent" computerized system would never err on problems far below its level of comprehension - unless we had some reason to believe it "wanted to", and as of yet I see no reason to believe this is even possible in principle.

Humans err, broadly speaking, for two reasons: genuinely reaching the limits of their comprehension, or trusting "system 1" (in Kahneman's analysis) too much.

I've got a piece sitting somewhere in my blog's drafts folder that I need to dig up photos for, literally titled "I fucking love Framework."

So full disclosure, even being immensely interested in their mission, I would have waited for the AMD version if my previous machine hadn't gotten wrecked in a car crash. Since insurance paid for it, it was essentially free. But. I've been daily driving a FW13 since early into their launch (Batch 4) and it absolutely holds up.

I'm still on a lot of the original hardware, and some of it is showing its age -- I'm particularly hard on keyboards -- but I'm aware that this is replaceable on its own. I also know I can just get the upgraded battery when my current one gives out, or eventually swap in a new display kit and also deal w the hinges in one go.

One thing that was exactly as magical as promised was upgrading the board. I opted for more RAM over a better CPU the first time but also had weird graphics driver issues under Arch when I tried running games on the 11th gen Intel board generally. Being able to clear up hardware-level issues by just installing better hardware, and then suddenly seeing a huge capability boost in what your machine is able to run, cannot be overstated. (I can also run smaller LLMs on it without pushing the limits of my CPU now.)

Some other gripes/musings:

- The DIY config should just bake the basic components into the up-front price. It's one thing to upsell on more expensive components (different expansion cards for instance), but as a customer it's irritating to see individual upcharges for things like bezels that I need as part of the build.

- Aside from wishing there were a good first-party way of recycling the monitor, I would be really interested in seeing a board that's just a USB hub, enabling the use of the body as an I/O device.

- I realize this isn't a Framework issue, but I wish there were an AMD board with more than 2 USB4 ports.
