If C is the constraint, then why are you doing generic types?

If you're using C, use bloody C. Not C with weird extensions that nobody will understand. Not C attempting to gussy up into a language with a real type system. Not C with a garbage collector. etc.

I don't get why so many people use C but don't want C. This isn't 1995 where you have to shoehorn everything into the C ecosystem because everything else sucked.
That doesn't explain why ERG's exist for that, and it doesn't explain why they are dismissive of what people who are white && and not women encounter in life or as an employee, seeking resources

Why are you invalidating their experience, its look like you have let something else leak into the workplace under an amusingly ironic interpretation of empathy

Let's write it again in a different way: Nothing about the name "Employee Resource Group" suggests that "state-sanctioned disenfranchisement at some point in the country's history" is the only reason or prerequisite for an employee seeking resources

> For me it simply doesn't pass the laugh test that a trans woman with a penis could walk into a nude spa in the 1970s, 1980s, or 1990s without anyone batting an eye.

They weren't, and they still aren't. The idea that transwomen want to be around ciswomen and hang brain is a conservative fantasy. You would very much like to believe that is true, because you believe transwomen are inherently perverted sexual deviants. Not unlike how conservatives viewed homosexuals. Of course, this is not so. This is one of the most classical forms of a projection. Meaning, you cannot view transwomen in a light that isn't sexual, so you project your own sexual objectification onto them. Again, exactly how was done with homosexuals in the past. Even today, there are a lot of people I've met who can't see a gay man without thinking "dick in ass dick in ass!". That's not the homosexual's fault.

On the topic of gender affirming care: the primary recipients of gender affirming has always been cisgender people. I take testosterone myself, because unfortunately I lost my testicles to cancer. I identify as a man and I want to present as a man as much as possible, so I take testosterone. And again, with puberty blockers, same thing - mostly cisgender people.

To be clear, gender affirming care for minors typically includes things like a new haircut and new wardrobe. In some cases, particularly for teens, puberty blockers may temporarily be used. The idea that minors are mutilating themselves is, surprise, another conservative fantasy.

But, even then, the Conservative's desire to get in the way of the rights of parents, their children, and their doctors, is very out of character. If you told conservative's 10 years ago that the government is going to want to vet what treatment their children can and cannot receive, they would be aghast. Even today they would be. After all, a lot of them have a big issue with the principle behind vaccine mandates.
Each feature I listed comes with a clause equal to "Apple shall implement an interoperability solution that provides third parties with access to the same AirPlay feature described in the preceding paragraph as available to Apple, in a way that is equally effective as the solution available to Apple."

Even each sub-functionality (for example, AirDrop Contacts Only mode) is enumerated as "shall implement."
The caching is a very nice feature, and will stop me from keeping my computer running for days/weeks while I work on a notebook.

If I understand it correctly, `@mo.persistent_cache(name="my_cache")` creates a binary file `my_cache` that I should commit as well if I don't want others to repeat the computation?

This kinda solves the problem, except for having two files per notebook, and that marimo notebooks are no longer viewable with output on github directly.
That was the biggest shock to me when visiting the US. Not seeeing tip choices 15,20,25 or bars with parking lots, it was seeing people clearly over 70 working jobs you rarely see anyone over 25 doing elsewhere. Even physical and/or poorly paying jobs (mailmen, cleaning, fast food).
it seems awfully similar.. MS using their dominance in the OS market to establish dominance in the application software market vs apple using their mobile phone to establish dominance in smart watches, etc.. the scale is a bit different since we have the duopoly in the mobile market, but it still doesn't seem like something we want.
1. You're right on that >_<

2. I found this article because I was having issues with my VPN on my workplace's network. The DNS was leaking and they were blackholing some of Apple's sites. Took me a while to find out that this was "by design". Pretty annoying, but I do understand your point :D
As somebody who lived in Northern California in the communities which first started spiking in the early 2000's, I've always had a pet theory from the time.

Housing Appraisers realized they could tack on $10k per house when appraising, and they realized that nobody would stop them. Realtors loved that because they got more commission, buyers realized that houses were going up fast so they'd better get in while they could, appraisers got called back more in a tight market and everybody made money. There were *no* controls on the appraising.
I know people in my age group (GenX) who have not saved even a penny for retirement. And these guys are in good jobs in tech with access to generous 401ks. They just spend their whole paychecks, and more via borrowing. If these guys (who definitely have the means to) won't save, I don't understand why we think "personal savings" is overall a viable system for taking care of the elderly. There is going to be a huge amount of either 1. misery or 2. bailouts in the next 30 years as GenX and Millennials start retiring.
Also NAL but I don't think you're correct about this.

First: the standard isn't relevant to a nuisance suit, since by definition you don't expect to win a nuisance suit anyway.

But setting that aside, disparate impact requires a significant difference in outcome and can be defended against by showing that the standards are relevant to job performance ("business necessity"). That's true for both the federal Civil Rights Act and the California Equal Pay Act (which is what this suit was brought under). So a "single variable analysis" isn't the end of the story, and employers can (and often do) provide statistical arguments that their policies satisfy business necessity.

I'd suggest looking up the case (Griggs v. Duke Power Co.) that established the disparate impact standard in the first place. TLDR, a company that had explicitly discriminatory Jim Crow-era policies banning black employees from certain departments adopted new requirements on the day the Civil Rights Act went into effect. Those requirements hadn't been in place before, Duke Power could not show any actual connection with job performance, and white employees were two to ten times more likely to satisfy them. A unanimous court (which, as a fun trivia fact, included an open former member of the Klan!) said nope, can't do that.

That's a bit like asking "what are all the possibilities with writing" or "what are all the possibilities with painting". It's far, far too broad of a question to reasonably answer, because every field you can think of has programming possibilities and opportunities.
My impression is based on hearing him speak for a few hours and maybe some biographical facts such as can be gotten from Wikipedia.
There are immersive theater-type events that can scratch the same itch, although they tend to focus much less on participation than LARP events like this. The Starcruiser is probably much closer to poorly-executed immersive theater than live action roleplaying. Really well done immersive theater can be incredible - Sleep No More in NYC is one of the most mindblowing experiences I've ever had (although it closed earlier this year). Legitimately felt like I was stepping into a David Lynch movie every time I went. It only had limited, somewhat improvised audience participation with the actors.

In my experience, the best immersive theater experiences find very clever ways to make the atmosphere work. In Sleep No More and other Punchdrunk shows, all of the guests are given masquerade masks to wear, the venue is fogged, and the lighting is dim. The dim and foggy atmosphere hides stuff that would otherwise take you out of the dreamlike 1920s noir setting of the show - that the other guest walking next to you is wearing a graphic tee, for example. The masks cast the audience as a shuffling horde of vengeful spirits haunting the characters for the sins they commit throughout the show - so when you see a big crowd following a character, it doesn't instantly feel at odds with the setting the way I imagine seeing a 5 year old in a Pokemon t shirt on the Starcruiser would.
Not any more. That's called a "secondary boycott", and has been illegal in the US since 1959. Before that, it was common for union truckers to refuse to cross a picket line. When a company's workers went on strike, deliveries by Teamsters stopped.

American labor law was written when unions were much stronger. It assumes strong unions and strong employers in conflict, with the NLRB as referee. That hasn't been true in the US for decades now.

It was around the time Apple was about to go bankrupt when Microsoft had about 95% share.

Compare this to iPhone activations of new phones which is at 33% and declining [1]. Which means Android's market share of 70%+ is going to get larger over time.

Depends on the jurisdiction, talk to a lawyer to find out.
When moving into generic types and metaprogramming in C, your only real choice is macros. I've been down that path. It just never seems to work out very well, and the results were always unsatisfying.

At some point, it becomes worthwhile to graduate to a more powerful language that still retains all the low level capability, like DasBetterC.
I 100% agree. For very little use, a cheap laser is absolutely the best choice. If you print very little, you'll probably don't even use up the included cartridge in your lifetime. My recommendation was for people who print a lot and who also need color. Why would you shell out 400$ for a printer you hardly use anyway? EcoTanks are small office printers for people who at least print a couple thousand pages a year. Why else would you need a tank that lasts for 7k pages?
Being a contractor isn't inherently bad. If you work at a company that is contracted to work on games or films, you're more insulated from the financial risks. You will normally get paid either way.

If you've become a de-facto standard ("get big enough") then making that standard be open so that other things can interoperate with you is a good thing.
I often wonder how this changes the way tension is built during spoken dialogue. Are there minor moments of suspense when someone lists a bunch of names and the listener waits to hear what verb is happening to them?
Exactly. If NASA had full control over how and where SLS money got spent, I can guarantee you the thing would've been a success a decade ago or more, and we'd have American boots on lunar ground full-time by now.

There’s a land war in Europe. Hundreds of thousands have lost their lives during the past few years. There have been cases of sabotage against the Baltic states as well as the Nordic states. Things are pretty grim there and lurking around basic infrastructure pretty much guarantees a talk with the police.
But ... all of those things are still C. Maybe with extra libraries / steps / whatever, but still C.

With file systems, searching for files (e.g. find all documents) requires traversing the entire directory hierarchy. With hard drives this comes at a cost of many seeks.

The last time I traversed a folder tree with over 100 million files, it took more than 30 minutes to complete.

A properly designed object store can find everything in less than a minute.

7% for Europe seemed unlikely to me so I googled it.

First link I opened says Europe is the second biggest market for Apple at 24% after the US at 42%.
https://www.bullfincher.io/companies/apple/revenue-by-geogra...

Could you post your source for the 7% or explain how you got that number?
I have two thoughts.

A) Retirement creates a better equilibrium, for the economy as a whole. Not just because you flush all the people who have lost a step and yet have enough social/economic power to hide it out of making decisions, but because it clears the way for ambitious younger people who are getting blocked out of advancement opportunities because the generation ahead of them just isn't #%@#$ leaving. Not that I have any experience with that, obviously. You can have a equilibrium where everyone works until they physically can't any more, but that's simply a worse one, for almost everyone.

B) If we're going to have retirement, it is a better equilibrium for our economy as a whole to do it through some sort of enforced group savings plans rather than individuals. The big risk with retirement is outliving your money. If you have a group of a hundred thousand people, you can statistically infer that X% of them will be dead at age 75, and X+Y% of them will be dead at age 76, etc. (1) So you don't need to save as if everyone is going to live to be 90, only some percentage of them. But if retirement is entirely individual responsibility, then everyone needs to save as if they are going to be 90, which leads to an unnaturally high savings rate and that leads to weaker current economies (2) and giant pools of money seeking high returns(3).

1: Yes, improved medicine might change the exact distribution here, but that is projectable, with a small fudge factor you can basically ignore it.

2: That money is saved, not getting spent and turning into your neighbors income!

3: This is what caused all of those boom/bust cycles in our economy over the past 20 years.
You and another poster in this thread keep trying strawman me with "trans people aren't a threat" stuff but I never said anything about any threat. I responded, explicitly, to your post that trans people have actually been passing in their preferred changing rooms forever, and I can tell you from years of personal experience (perhaps if I said, "my lived experience", you'd listen better?) that they have not. As another posted has pointed out, women have been complaining about this for decades. Your paragraph about "hanging brain" and conservative wet dreams is simply unhinged and your attempt at putting words in my mouth is unimpressive.

I said this before: AI only exists because business hates creative people and wants to automate us away at any cost. And because most businesspeople don't have good taste in art (they never bothered to build their taste to begin with!), gen AI looks good enough for them.

Yes, kind of.

When I was applying for a contractor job to Intuit a faulty publication of my tool to NPM broke an upstream project that resulted in an outage for the guy interviewing me.

When I joined Bank of America I discovered people were widely using my tool as one of two critical dependencies of a widely used IDE plugin. When they became known people then stopped using the browser plugin. JavaScript, at that time, had an extreme aversion to any kind of software written by known or trusted people. Software had to be little more than copy/paste and had to come from unknown strangers.

Otherwise, no. Open source contributions have largely just been a distraction from employment history, which is really the only part of the resume people seem to read.
Looking Ahead at Intel's Xe3 GPU Architecture

July 5th through September in Seattle are a dream; incredibly long days, dry but not too hot. The sun never sets. I've been a lot of places on the planet and PNW summers are uniquely great.

However, during the winter it's dreary, it's dark by noon, and every year around October the raven comes tapping at my chamber door.

July of 2020 I left and went south to Central America. That first 'winter' I kept waiting for my annual S-A-D season to start. It didn't. The second 'winter' was worse because I reasoned the lst time could have been endorphins keeping me going. I was really expecting any day for the depression to start. And again, it didn't. December and January felt normal. That very consistent 7am it's bright sunny day and at 7pm it's dark night all year is helpful.

Quite literally, I never intended to return to Seattle, but with the recent economic turmoil it worked out that way. S-A-D season kicked off like usual, even with the 10,000 IUs of Vitamin D.

Without a job I moved to Eastern Washington, and within a month I was doing better, life got easier and the future was far less inscrutable. I have the energy to do the work, and after an angry or sad thought the follow-up thought is "that was a bit dramatic". That's a sign every year that things are on the up-swing.

Many people love and appreciate the Seattle climate just as it is; I don't know really anyone that reacts quite as severely as I do to it. Not being in Seattle weather means I get 6 more months of life every year. It kills me how much time I wasted trying to 'fix myself' in a place I just wasn't meant to be.
Is a neural net doing this? Or is this pre-programmed dynamical control systems software?
> One design decision they made is that outputs are not stored

This is not quite true. Outputs are not stored...in the Python file*. marimo does store outputs in the `/__marimo__` folder with settings enabled.

> writing the boiler plate to let the reader load the results.

Therea are some primitives to do this for you, such as mo.persistent_cache. This can be an annotation or 'with' block. It intelligently knows when either the source code or inputs change.

The plan is to take this one step further than storing just the output. Because marimo knows the dependencies of each cell, in a future version, it will store each output AND let you know which are stale based on code changes. This is being built by Dylan (from the blog) and inspired by Nix.
There’s a difference. Microsoft competed unfairly because it sold software like Word that apparently internally used secret system calls only Microsoft devs knew about. They gave their other software divisions a big advantage, extending their dominance in OS to apps.
Apple software, like Pages, apparently only uses the same set of system calls available to everyone else.
Is there any source that describes the messages in question in more detail?
People definitely don't save enough for retirement under the current system. The median household entering retirement right now has like $150k, which translates to very little on top of social security. So now without pensions, people's entire retirement strategy is social security and maybe selling a primary residence.

> The last 5 years

The last 5 years were freaking amazing for investments. Even including the current small downturn, s&p 500 total returns are up like +160% in the last 5 years.

After factoring inflation it's more like +80% or so? Which is over 10% real returns per year, which is wayyyyy above historical average (closer to 5-7% real returns).
Few would like to feel inferior in every dimension to other people in their group - because that effectively means they're useless to the group, beyond being a warm body to throw at problems requiring numbers; it means they're replaceable and will be replaced by someone better.

It feels to me that the ideas of social status, "feeling seen", finding connection, even finding meaning, all intersect in wanting to be unique along some dimension that at least part of your group values.
