US Department of Defense article from 2019:

https://www.defense.gov/News/News-Stories/Article/Article/20...

>In 2016, the U.S. and Ukraine agreed to a 5-year concept of partnership that focuses on developing a robust and capable Ukranian military and reforming the Ukrainian defense sector to be in line with NATO standards and principles.

...and a lot more. There are five main points.

The point is, the US was heavily actively involved in Ukraine for decades. They were not a bystander.
Incorrect. He tried to box in China and contain it as a solely regional power by building military bases along the first island chain and flipping countries into the US sphere of influence.

If China started doing something similar in North America the US would probably invade that country almost instantly (e.g. like it almost did to Cuba during the Cuban missile crisis).
>Werner Forssmann performed the first heart catheterization on himself. He got the Nobel prize.

In case anyone else was confused how it would be possible to perform heart surgery on yourself, he did it through a vein in his arm, which is still incredibly impressive:

>In 1929, he put himself under local anesthesia and inserted a catheter into a vein of his arm. Not knowing if the catheter might pierce a vein, he put his life at risk. Forssmann was nevertheless successful; he safely passed the catheter into his heart.

He also had to trick the operating-room nurse into thinking he was operating on her.
That's very sad. What was he even guilty of? Or is the article that misleading?
Reduce does not accept a predicate.
They also removed old features. Or can we look at threads without being logged in? It's clear people who say Twitter didn't change don't remember at all what Twitter was like.
Not really true anymore unfortunately: The latest models (post-2020?) are locked down and cannot use non-official FW.
The non-profit owns the for-profit. The for-profit pays out profits to the non-profit. Non-profit uses that money for things they think are in line with their values. Where is the issue?
No need to get defensive. GP just doesn't share your humor.
Yes. To buy more American weapons.

Also:

Russian leader Vladimir Putin and other Kremlin officials explicitly rejected making any concessions in future peace negotiations or accepting any US, European, or Ukrainian peace proposals and the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs rejected the possibility of a negotiated ceasefire on 6 March.

Agreed the budget should be a non-starter. Meaning, they shouldn't be allowed to punt on agreeing to a budget deadline.

The budget is a weird topic when we consistently spend trillions in debt. I've found it hard for me to take budget debates too seriously when the idea of running such a deficit seems completely against any fundamental financial plan.

I'd care more about budget deadlines and temporary agreements if they were required to agree to a balanced budget.
I was a little horrified to see that quote, and really hope there's some context that makes it less of a disaster. That is not an appropriate answer or attitude. Also... what "tooling" is he talking about?!

The simple truth is that in "modern" package systems optimized around Reuse-Uber-Alles principles, the ability of J. Random Attacker to "get code into" a downstream app is much, much higher than it was in the days of coarse-grained projects. We need to start dealing with that as a problem to be solved and not excused away.
Did you detect any code smells?

Anyway, good prompting, I'll check it out. Thanks!
Why can’t the outrageously overpaid leadership who made the mistakes be the ones who are punished instead of the individual contributors who are just trying to survive?
The current crop of cores were designed several years ago before some key standards were adopted. They exist mostly to experiment and allow early adopters to develop software.

Next generation cores from companies like Ventana claim very high performance (we’ll see what PPW ends up being). Tenstorrent has already started talking about an extremely wide core to follow their already 8-wide designs. Qualcomm seems quite interested in the idea of moving from ARM to RISCV and there are other companies working on big stuff, but it takes 4-5 years and the final pieces of the puzzle only fell into place a couple years ago, so the designs are all in progress.
The US and Europe are culturally quite close, unlike to Arabia, so I think the comparison actually holds.
H.R. 1936: To prohibit funds for the USAF to invade Canada, Panama, or Greenland
H.R. 1936 is a bill in the United States Congress, to prohibit funds for the Armed Forces to engage in operations to invade or seize territory from Canada, the Republic of Panama, or the self-governing territory of Greenland.
> Personally I think the reason the US got strong, especially economically, is because of stability, rule of law, global trade and economy of scale due to large enough population. Not because of specific incidents of screwing someone.

(WWII^W) The US has had free reign to screw with dozens of countries since the end of WWII. And they did. But it wasn’t your[1] country so then it doesn’t count. Which is high school clique logic.

[1] Except if you were a politically active left-wing organizer post-WWII. Then the US and government-backed groups in Europe could have screwed with you through Operation Gladio, for example in Italy.[2]

[2] This is just an example. And I’m not terribly educated on the matter. I can’t learn about this by watching the tellie. So it takes more effort than the stupor that a slogan like 100 years of building trust hints at.
The Manchurian Candidate was along these lines, though it has an (early) happy ending, before the candidate becomes president, at least in the movie. I haven't read the book.
FWIW:
https://www.usaforunfpa.org/are-we-overpopulated-are-birth-r...

I think a lot of the "low-birthrate" fearmongering is just a way to distract people.

Overpopulation was projected to be an issue, but we actually addressed it pretty well over the last 50-75 years and global average birth rates are in a pretty good place now.
Can’t remember account login so created a new account to respond.

I recently used Claude with something along the lines of “Ruby on rails 8, Hotwire, stimulus, turbo, show me how to do client side validations that don’t require a page refresh”

I am new to prompt engineering so feel free to critique. Anyway, it generated a stimulus controller called validations_controller.js and then proceeded to print out all of the remaining connected files but in all of them it referred to the string “validation” not “validations”. The solution it provided worked great and did exactly what I wanted to (though I expected a turbo frame based solution not a stimulus solution, but whatever it did what I asked it to do) with the exception of having to change all of the places where it put the string “validation” where it needed to put “validations” to match the name it used in the provided stimulus controller.
It would be delusional to think that this can be patched up with a new president, or that any of America's former allies will be willing to wait around twirling their thumbs, hoping that the next time America flips a coin, it turns out better.

The relationship is over. Maybe in 4 years America can start making some initial steps towards patching things up, but even that seems increasingly unlikely at this point.
Generally correlates with my own view on the subject. After reading two USDA reports on the subject "Chickens and Eggs" [1] and "Egg Markets Overview" [2] it seemed like the markets are not responding to actual supply / demand issues. The losses, while large "sounding" (30 million), are not really that enormous in the context of 369 million egg laying flock, down 2% from the previous year. And most of the losses were heavily constrained to the Ohio (44%) / Illinois (22%) area.

Yeah likely Orban is the reason they threw away all pretexts of democracy. Hungary escaped their power.
> but Google just pays PC makers to make Chrome the default browser.

Unless you have a source for that, that's flat-out wrong. I've never heard of that, I've never seen that, and I can't find any supporting evidence of that.

That's not what that graph shows. It doesn't show anything about defaults.

You're not wrong; light roast is reportedly higher in caffeine.

What I find interesting is that pour-over produces such better results than a drip coffee maker, which seems to be doing essentially the same thing. I guess having the grounds totally submerged makes that much difference.

I'm sure someone has rigged up a microcontroller-based automated pour-overer.

At UN votes when voting about Ruzzian invasion China abstain while USA voted with Ruzzia and other most despicable dictatorships. Still waiting for a MAGA explain this 5D chess move and explain what the USA citizen won from this.
This is not what happened in recent layoffs where I am familiar with the company. Perhaps you would like to make the argument that in theory, lay-offs can be done that way.
No, that's a fundamental risk built into democracy.

If any minority group has the power to overrule a majority vote, regardless of what the vote is for, then you don't really have a democracy.
Different groups of people. Some confidently job hop, others live in fear of losing a comfortable job.

There are deep differences in expectations and attitudes in these areas, driven by family, culture, and upbringing.
Thanks for sharing this thought, it hadn't occured to me that this could be an issue. Would the choice of AGPL or MPL for a licence have satisfied your concerns?
Doctors providing healthcare to kids is a good thing.
I don't see how that's disagreeing. I totally agree with this statement.
It would depend on what the end goal of the rewritten project is. If they pursue widespread adoption GPL licenses can definitely hinder it in many cases.
Oh yeah, I’ve turned every single possible thing off. It still randomly dark-wakes. And then, when it does, it will sometimes get into a doom loop of scanning the network and refusing to release its power assertions, meaning it won’t go back to sleep. Eventually it will hit a thermal emergency and then shut down.
No, every country is one election away from this shit-show.

Which is why under no circumstances you should ever elect anyone who will send yours in that direction. Canadians, take note, the CPC only detached its lips from Trump's backside because they needed to come up for air.

At minimum, don't elect people who staged failed coups. They and their supporters will not ever act like they are bound by law.
Why would I take anything away beyond the specific scope of the vulnerability to supply chain issues that NPM had? Cargo offers a variety of tools for auditing and managing dependencies that specifically mitigate supply chain issues. If your only suggestion is to not use dependencies at all, that's an extreme opinion.

In both cases the executive branch is overstepping legal bounds and attempting to take actions that it isn't legally authorized to do.
Remember when with each European space launch the Elon fanboys demanded Europe stop "Wasting" money and we should just send them to Elon and depend on hiw whims.
Yes because only the USA has agency in this world. Russia didn't choose to invade and Ukrainians didn't choose to defend themselves. As someone from Europe this lack of perspective you showing here is exactly why we are tired of the US atm.

I was thinking naive: mask off unwanted bits then reject any value above the limit.

It would seem like https://c-faq.com/lib/randrange.html would also move the multiply --or divide by constant-- out of the loop.
5th gen is a nonsense marketing term. It is far less about the plane itself and more about how it integrates into a force. This is why russian figthers are pretty useless: they are not integrated with the rest of the force and they lack coordination. The russians do not even have the ability to discriminate between their own planes and enemy planes when making decisions to launch AA missiles.
And now you're back-tracking on it so yes, US is extremely unreliable as an ally. I mean nobody is surprised you had some ulterior motive and undermined your geo-political enemies. It's the abandonment of those you supported that hurts US image.
The EU should buy - or even license produce - Swedish Saab Gripens to help the Ukrainians resist.

Low cost, simple to operate, and specially designed to fight Russian aggression.
That is much less true than you think. It's undeniably true for "complicated" stuff. If you as an app developer roll your own DEFLATE implementation vs. using zlib, you're being an idiot, etc... But the lines around those utilities have long since been drawn already, and traditional open source projects have already organized themselves around this. We don't need crates.io to put libz.so into a separate package, it's already there.

Instead, what's left over is a bunch of random junk that saves developers 20-30 minutes of typing and Stack Overflow research. "Here's a small package to automate the creation of a zip file with this format and add a manifest file to it", stuff like that.

And more, downstreams tend not to use the whole package anyway. So you end up importing a "small" 2000-line crate just to use 7% of it. The "code quality" calculus tends to invert very rapidly when you have that kind of ratio.
Yeah it's a 100% checkbox exercise explicitly designed to only satisfy the letter of the law.

Unfortunately critical infrastructure providers flock to that, though there are some exceptions.
If it's Georgescu you're referring to (because you don't seem to want to say so): the annulment was upheld by the ECHR.

We cannot tolerate democracy threatening extremism any longer, nor Russian interference. If anything, the EU is too soft. Orban, and to a lesser degree Fico, are a disgrace, also to their own population.

ARM just sued their largest customer.

ARM just announced they are manufacturing their own chips for the first time further threatening their customers (despite testifying the exact opposite in court a couple months ago).

Since SoftBank took over, their company has shifted and proved that when a standard is controlled by one company, there will eventually be issues.

Switching to RISC means those issues won’t ever happen again.
I feel that companies just repeat discredited strategies because they are conventional wisdom, and no amount of explaining why layoffs don't make sense will stop them from laying off.

It's mostly about conformity. They heard that all the serious companies are laying off. So they've got to lay off too. Can't be seen breaking convention.

With big tech, a few years back when over-hiring was the conventional wisdom they were for that too.
Seems like wishful thinking, much like saying engineers at Amazon can do whatever they want despite what Bezos says. Yes, they can, but they'd get fired. And yes, incentives could be changed, but they won't, because the person running the organization doesn't want to.

Research funding and research institutions are existing things, that operate in specific ways. One can lobby to change this, but unless you want to go back to the "gentleman scientist" model of the 1700s and 1800s, and a scientific establishment about 1% the size of the one today, you can't just buck the system.
I wish I could upvote this a million times.

It's a massive cognitive dissonance that you're right -- it makes absolutely no sense. A lot of people just want to argue that Google is bad/too big/anticompetitive, and will use whatever argument is easiest to do so, even if they flat-out contradict each other.

The actual reality is that most people do change defaults quite easily when they perceive a benefit, so it's incredibly difficult to make the argument that defaults are anticompetitive. Chrome proves this. At the same time, some people aren't aware and will stick to a default, and the search market is so big that it's still worth $$$ for Google to pay Apple for the search default. The search deal proves this. On these points, there's zero anticompetitive behavior.

But if there's an anticompetitive angle regarding search, it's that in effect, Google is essentially paying Apple not to develop its own search engine. But that's basically an impossible legal argument to make. Nobody can force Apple to compete in search, and if it doesn't want to and would prefer to take Google's money, that's its free choice.
It rather should be for general computing too starting with government office computers.

Yeah they'll be slow but nothing can be slower than an x86 loaded with a Windows 11 or something on it.
AGPL? I can understand. Pure GPL 2 or even GPL 3? Never heard of that.
It’s a pretty common issue. Search around and you will find pages and pages of people experiencing the same issues on macrumors, the apple discussion forum, etc. Glad it hasn’t been a problem for you, I envy you!
Coreutils are not part of the linux project in the first place, and uutils does not aim to be merged into GNU coreutils.

Vaguely related. I bought a book about clock repair a while back from the early 1900s. It had a section and table about the lengths for pendulums for different spots on the Earth to account for differences in gravity. Is there anything similar on Earth about time dilation to account for General Relativity?

For the US, this is an extremely cheap [1] way to counter Russia. Ukraine is doing 99% of the work. We give them money which they immediately give back to us to buy hardware. Or we give mothballed hardware slated for destruction. Most prefer this to a future with dead Americans and US boots on the ground in Europe when NATO countries are invaded by Russia, emboldened by a world that gave up on Ukraine.

[1] as a percentage of the US$850,000,000,000 _annual_ Pentagon budget

As an interviewer at Google, we arent given an exact list of questions to ask or what to evaluate (there are broad categories).

It is really entirely up to each interviewer how the interview goes and they are usually scheduled between 2 other meetings so often the interviewer is distracted.
