I'm not necessarily going to defend proc macros, which have a lot of problems but are also better than the alternative in many languages (like Go's over-reliance on codegen). Macros-by-example are pretty nice though, even with the special syntax.

But in Rust, you don't need to delve into any kind of macro for polymorphism like you do in C++, since Rust has a real generics system. There is vastly more C++ code that instantiates templates than Rust code that uses macros.

LuLu has a fatal flaw: it drops or closes TCP connections randomly resulting in dropped SSH sessions. No amount of TCP keepalives on the client- or server-side will resolve this. This makes it a non-starter for anyone doing anything real.

Our culture demands that you just do the unpleasant activity and suck it up. Often. It's a lifestyle. School, work etc.

Normies just say "ok" and get on with their life.

ADHDers can't really do that. They can't eat it and get on with their life. They get stuck at the threshold. It's a choice between eternal stress or rejecting society. Both deliver a shortened lifespan.
Yeah. I think you'll find my story is going to be more and more common in the next few years. Currently, cosmetic surgery for men is heavily scrutinized but I think in the next few years it will become more like Korea. Hair transplants have already become mainstream and considered normal. It's inevitable that men will spend more time flying to other countries to get more work done. The costs in the US are obscene and way out of reach for your average male but are very reasonable in places like Turkey or Mexico.
I guess backwards incompatible changes to the protocol? But yeah, don't do that if you're using protobuf; it's intentionally not robust to it.

I’m still a bit confused around how they sent him the email. Maybe they added him to the Google Workspace as a member?
I'm sure this works if you're buying a couple thousand shares at a time but I don't think buying 10 shares of Southwest is going to make them listen to you any more or less when you have an issue on your flight.
And, what, because it's named `std` it'll be magically better? Languages with giant stdlibs routinely have modules rot away because code maintenance doesn't get any easier, like Python. There are plenty of crates on crates.io made by the Rust project developers, I trust the RustCrypto guys pretty much the same amount, and merging the two teams together wouldn't solve any problems.
So many people I work with don't "get" distributed systems and how they interplay and cause problems. Most people don't even know that the ORDER you take potentially competing (distributed) locks even matters -- which is super important if you have different teams taking the same locks in different services!

The article is well written, but they still have a lot of problems to solve.
Based on the text at the bottom of the gist:

> Hack Clubbers have determined that this is almost definitely a bug in Google Workspace where you can create a new Workspace with any g.co subdomain and get it to send some emails without verifying that you own the domain.

Seems like this is the flow:

1. Create a Google Workspace with a g.co subdomain. Apparently this is not verified, or verifying the domain is not necessary for the next steps.

2. Create an account for the victim under this Google Workspace.

3. Reset that account's password.

The victim gets an email from Google Workspace informing them that their password was reset. And this email is a real, legitimate (not spoofed) email from Google because it's just a result of the normal password reset process for a Google Workspace account.
Talk about burying the lede! Near the bottom of the story the site owner confirms that it was him that added the backdated AI comments (perhaps it should have been obvious...)
Most AI generated images are like most dreams: meaningful to you but not something other people have much interest it.

Once you have people sorting through them, editing them, and so on the curation adds enough additional interest...and for many people what they get out of looking at a gallery of AI images is ideas for what prompts they want to try.
If you don’t think the war in Israel, AIPAC, Zionist owned AI, Zionist VCs, the presidential election… are important, then there’s not much for us to discuss.

Side note, the pathological Israeli desire to have the last word is super obnoxious. You can just let a conversation end without adding one more reiteration of the same thing you’ve already said many times. I find this bad trait is omnipresent amongst Zionists.

Most scammers will try to avoid situations where you can punch them in the face. => If scams usually get notified before the perpetrator can run away, that will discourage scamming. => In practice, it might be "good enough" if you know immediately after sending money.
I'm sure I don't really have to point this out, but...

The last thing you would ever want to do is associate your domain name with gross, offensive content like this. The web is crawled all the time for snapshot data.

Additionally, you're more likely to cause your own (potential) users to stumble on this than anything else.

IMO, the best policy is almost always transparency. If you were to redirect users (and referrer-based redirects are a fragile thing), send them to a phishing/spam awareness page and explain that they most likely arrived from such a source.
You should probably know that "Labor" includes a hell of a lot more than drivers though. That's, at minimum, the tiremen to the body guys to the mechanics that maintain the busses. That's the electricians, the carpenters, the plumbers, that maintain the shop(s). That's the planners (that dictate "X bus will be due for an oil change this day, we need to make sure it's here"), the office administrators, the shop supervisors, the road supervisors.

Paying the bus drivers does not account for 70% of the budget, I assure you.

Educated people get better paying jobs. More pay means more payed taxes as well. If you have a smart tax system with progressive tax, that's a real lever.

It sounds counter intuitive, but more taxes is more fair and better as a whole. To prove, it takes no more than to look up correlation of amounts of taxes with percentages of homelessness (and other such indicators) between western countries.

> a lot of these pages are showing how CRT's supposedly looked so much better

That's shifting the goalposts. The question is whether old games were intended to be seen on CRTs, or intended to be seen on LCD screens created years later. There's no question, they were intended to be seen on CRTs.

The pixels were placed by artists who looked at how they rendered on a CRT, and they'd change pixels here and there, do hand dithering, and play with the colour palette until they got what they wanted on the CRT. That was the canvas they painted with. The artists didn't have high-resolution LCD screens.

And the thesis of all the things I linked were "the artists intended you to see this on a CRT". And yet, people playing games in emulators on modern high-res LCD screens have picked up this unintended visual style and dubbed it "retro", and modern artists have created new art that was intended be seen on LCD and look "retro" while doing so. They didn't even get a CRT to check how it looks on it.

Two different sets of artists, with two different intents, separated by time and fashion.

Rephrasing can be beneficial. It can make things clearer to understand and learn from. Like in math something like khan academy or the 3blue 1 brown YouTube channel isn't presenting anything new, just rephrasing math in a different way that makes it easier for some to understand.

Blog posts and websites that talk about web UI theory or features that demo their components natively on their site definitely stick out and is a sign of a good developer team. I understand if sites otherwise can't include them because they are using a blog or doc generating/hosting service, but they lose the opportunity of sticking out.

Oh. Er... I didn't really consider whether it could be proven to have an integral, I just went off of intuition. After an additional lifetime of study, magically compressed into 15 minutes of skimming Wikipedia articles, I'm going to (tenuously) claim that the function is Lebesgue integrable. Heck, if it works for the {0 if irrational, 1 if rational} function, this should be much easier. I hope?

My original intuition is that every value in [0, 1] will be cancelled by a value in [-1, 0].

My updated intuition to make it more Lebesgue-compatible would be to sort the (infinite) set of values in the interval. This will give the everywhere continuous, linear function from -1 at the minimum coordinate of the interval to 1 at the maximum coordinate.

Hm... I notice that when applying Lebesgue to Dirichlet, it uses countability, and reals aren't countable. I have no clue whether that's a problem here or not.
Sorry, this is mistaking the operational for the fundamental.

If a transaction log is replayed, then an identical set of relations will be obtained. Ergo, the log is the prime form of the database.

Don’t really have a real answer but if "zap them to whatever service I prefer" means "use zapier" couldn’t you just create a HTML Input Field with a button next to it and when the user clicks the button the value from the input field is sent to a Zapier Webhook? That way you’d directly have them in Zapier. Not sure if that helps, depends a bit on your programming knowledge but if you have further questions let me know.

Procedures are written under the assumption that the actual system behaves like the theoretical system the engineer has in their head. It never quite does. There's always a gap, and this gap nearly always requires deviating from procedures to ensure safe operation.

Deviating from procedures prevents as many accidents as it causes. Safety cannot be based on adherence to procedure. Safe systems must be designed to take advantage of (and be protected against, I suppose) human ingenuity.

Not really. Corners were cut, the ultimate issue which caused the explosion was known beforehand, and the operators violated several points of standard procedure as well as doing several basic unwise things. It was not at all a case of unknown edge cases but stupid piled on top of stupid until the damn thing exploded.

The biggest, stupidest action was trying to operate a reactor very clearly experiencing xenon poisoning including the many unsafe things they did to try to overcome the poisoning. I'm pretty sure modern reactors still shut down for 24 hours to avoid the xenon issue. This was well known, even without the design flaws this was a huge risk, and anyone with an ounce of sense would have known not to do what they did leading up to attempting to scram the reactor.

My wife's car has automatic emergency braking that kicks in when I am turning on a cul-de-sac and there are cars in the street, it feels I am going to hit them so it just brakes all of the sudden. Also when getting into a turn lane that has multiple lanes and I move to the inside lane but there are cars in the outside turn late, it feels I am going to hit those cars and brakes all of the sudden. It has happened enough I am just prepared for situations the car might feel like braking on its own.

Earlier compilers were a pipeline of specialized IRs. I used to think that MLIR was an acknowledgment that this specialization was necessary. Ok, it is necessary. But MLIR's real contribution is, as you say, a generic framework for expressing your own custom IR.

Actually I suspect that’s where companies like Apple are going. If you look at the latest iteration of app intents, Apple is trying to define a predefined set of actions that developers can implement in their app. In turn, Apple intelligence/siri pretty much can leverage said intent when the user prompt a given task. It’s still fairly early but I could see how this would indeed converge towards that sort of paradigm.
No, the problem is unchecked moral panicking. IP geoblocking is mitigation.
Exactly. LLMs make it worse for both the employers and the job seekers. Receiving hundreds of applications per day is extremely difficult to handle for a small company, especially that it's extremely apparent that around 1% reads the job description at all.

> "The dead internet theory is coming to fruition. This is a large reason I'm starting to cut back on social media and take back my time."
I'm actually working on a database implementation for this exact use-case... It's a distributed edge database and still quite a long ways to go -- https://github.com/bottledcode/atlas-db if you want to give it a star.

It's mostly based on wpaxos (wide-area consensus), spaxos, fpaxos and pretty neat. The repo above is a productionization of several proof of concepts to get there.

> One could also imagine ensuring that > n/2 consensus members are always located inside the restaurant/hardware store/etc., so if you go offline, you can still proceed.

This is what annoys me to no end about RAFT. It's a great protocol, don't get me wrong, but its too simple for these types of problems. RAFT fails when it doesn't have consensus and because the consensus is non-deterministic, it must have an odd number of nodes. PAXOS, while far more complex than RAFT in terms of "grok", is deterministic so you don't need an odd number of nodes.

If you throw in some flexible quorums, you can do some really neat stuff, like how Atlas handles a "region" (ie, areas connected via the internet instead of the same network) becoming disconnected; but I'm not ready yet. There's still a long way to go!

You can literally just google that or use the appendix that's probably at the back of the manual. It's also probably stamped on the engine oil cap. It also probably doesn't matter and you can just use 10w40.
From what I've seen I don't think there is a lot of 'exclusivity' of job posting on one platform or another, perhaps timing of jobs going live...

I suggest setting up the daily alerts on LinkedIn with your role title, doing the same for Indeed as well. I check BuildIn as well every few days just for good measure as they claim to have good hiring rates for tech.

Also see if there is any value in what I've built as well.
An important point here is that the transitive dependency issue completely does not exist in Rust. If you upgrade a crate to a version which upgrades its public dependency, i.e. it uses it in its APIs and you need to interact with it to interact with those APIs, then you obviously need to upgrade your copy of the subdependency at the same time. But private transitive dependencies are totally irrelevant unless they link to C libraries. You can have as many semver-incompatible versions of a crate in the same dependency tree as you want, and even depend on multiple versions directly if you need to. No Java-style sweeping upgrades are ever needed, just upgrade the one thing with the vulnerability. (I believe C# has the same feature, though it's a little more baroque about it.)
