I don't know enough details about to say how long is reasonable to collect facts and develop a plan. If I had to guess, it would be possible.

It is an extraordinary and unprecedented situation, and I'm not sure what the SCOTUS decision requires because the situation is such a mix of diplomacy and DOJ actions.

Does the head of ICE just call the president of el salvador? Does the order require DJT to do it? What if Bukele says "no"?

Either way, from a constitutional perspective there is a big difference between the executive saying they can't do something and flat out refusing.
Ha, it's another story on HN right now. They probably had both tabs open like I do at this very second.
I am not a Lisp expert by any stretch, but let's clarify a few things:

1. Just for the sake of other readers, we agree that the code you quoted does not compile, right?

2. `let` is analogous to a scope in other languages (an extra set of {} in C), I like using it to keep my variables in the local scope.

3. `let` is structured much like other function calls. Here the first argument is a list of assignments, hence the first double parenthesis (you can declare without assigning,in which case the double parenthesis disappears since it's a list of variables, or `(variable value)` pairs).

4. The rest of the `let` arguments can be seen as the body of the scope, you can put any number of statements there. Usually these are function calls, so (func args) and it is parenthesis time again.

I get that the parenthesis can get confusing, especially at first. One adjusts quickly though, using proper indentation helps.

I mostly know lisp trough guix, and... SKILL, which is a proprietary derivative from Cadence, they added a few things like inline math, SI suffixes (I like that one), and... C "calling convention", which I just find weird: the compiler interprets foo(something) as (foo something). As I understand it, this just moves the opening parenthesis before the preceding word prior to evaluation, if there is no space before it.

I don't particularly like it, as that messes with my C instincts, respectively when it comes to spotting the scope. I find the syntax more convoluted with it, so harder to parse (not everything is a function, so parenthesis placement becomes arbitrary):

let( (bar-x(bar(x))
quux-y(quux(y)))
foo(bar-x quux-y z)
)
No, because "bad dancer" is used to illustrate meaning changing in a complex way; it is a person who is bad at dancing, not a bad person who is dancing. Whereas "bad banana" is a bad banana; "bad" operates the same way as "yellow" on "banana", but "bad" and "blonde" operate differently on "dancer."

Really seems like you're trying to enforce your own form of political correctness here - "PC" is associated with certain progressives, but the problem is policing language and picking fights over trivial nonsense.
If everything that anyone cared to not see was censored, there’d be no content on the internet. Also, not smart to conflate (lack of) personalization with government-induced content moderation.
To add to your point, we elected George W. Bush again after hearing four years of his gibberish (and after he, you know, starting a devastating war). That was 20 year ago.
Presumption of regularity with the DOJ is collapsing and an inquisitorial system doesn't scale.

The government has consistently failed to provide any evidence of its assertions in this case. And fired one of its lawyers in this case, and his manager, for telling the court the truth.

I expect the DOJ intends to disobey the lower court until the end. And will eventually claim Garcia has died in order to render the case moot.

If the government can't be compelled to produce Garcia on U.S. soil while alive, why trust whatever evidence it provides that he has died?

The government admits to an aggregiously derelict mistake in this case, itself ignoring the order of a lower court. And now claim they can't or won't ask the autocracy they're paying to run prisons abroad for basic information on the whereabouts of a prisoner the government transferred there.

Nothing misunderstood here. Only someone seriously naïve or disingenuous would arrive at the conclusion that money is the main drive of such people who have already so much that they don't know what to do with it. Especially without proofs, as a "this can only be it!" position.

I'd rather believe wanting power for power's sake than this cartoon idea of an old duck diving into a pool of well-polished coins.

Truth is that beyond a few truly neurotic exceptions, the obscenely rich do use their money. Just not all in supercars and yachts, but also to influence what they can.

Well, Julia's (and then Charles's) love for God prevails, in the end.

On the face of it, it's not a story where the guy gets the girl, as such. However, there is a sense where Jesus is the bridegroom of the Church, and thus it is that kind of story, just not the way that readers expect (well, as Oliver points out, until they read the title of the section "The Twitch on the Thread").

> why is compound interest divided linearly even though the growth is exponential?

Because calculus (with real numbers) is usually covered before complex numbers are introduced in a standard course of study, and the default now is to introduce e and trig functions early so we can talk about their derivatives as soon as we cover the concept of a derivative (this is called "early transcendentals"). So students have covered limits and summation fairly early in their post-graduate education, and complex numbers come later (or not at all, depending on their major). So it is easiest to introduce e as the concept of a limit. Sums are much easier to calculate with uniform interval widths. In real life we also do this- we update bank accounts with updates occurring regularly in time (like a batch job running at midnight every night, or at the end of every week, etc.). So the concept of dividing this update inteval into ever-smaller pieces but keeping the intervals uniformly spaced, is directly applicable to how this is applied in this real-world application.

The fact that compounded interest is the most common illustration is because it is one of the few things that almost every college student will come across in real life, so it is a good example. Even if many students don't care about the value of e, it is a great practical lesson that if you are comparing interest rates you need to use a common time base or you might be misled, which is why we require banks to tell you the APY.

Hardly anyone except mathematicians, physicists, and electrical engineers will care about complex exponentials. They are beautiful but not intuitive to many young students. As a side note, there is a style of education that introduces transcendental functions after the fundamental calculus has been covered (and therefore might be appropriate for defining e as the number satisfying d/dx e^x = e^x). This is not standard in the USA anymore, but the "late transcendentals" is a pedagogical approach that is used in some parts of the world.

The missing part of this article: are the requests valid? Are they actually incitements to terrorism and violence or is it just a clamp down on criticism? The headline of the article implies the latter but the body does not provide any evidence for that.

Like there is a war going on, a pretty nasty one at that. I would expect there to be quite a lot of incitement to violence related to that. I would expect the israeli government to be mostly concerned with incitements of violence against its citizens. In the context of this conflict i would expect such incitements to be mostly be made by the demographics cited in the article due to the nature of the conflict. The article seems like it could be entirely consistent with take downs being used appropriately. It needs more then this to prove its headline.

Heck, from this post we dont even know relative numbers. How does this compare against take down requests from other groups?
OK yes, fair. Anything that is displayed needs its own attributes, and therefore must be its own tagged thing. Good point.

To deliver, you need to make Rust target the GPU in a general way, like some IR, and then may be compile that into GPU machine code for each GPU architecture specifically.

The normal term for this is "manic delusion of grandeur", so please help me out:

3n walks congruence classes
+1 steps each one out of alignment
/2 never changes that fact

Accumulating co-primeness is the "memory" that stops n from repeating. This is invariant under 2^k, which allows it to make forward progress through the chaos. Exhausting congruence classes mod 3 forces n to a power of 2; game over.

I asked AI to prove those things, and it did. I assume.

The only question then would be if 1.5n can grow the residue vector quickly enough to outrun the exhaustive walk. I asked AI that too, and got back a one page p-word. I'm not even going to type it.

I can sweet-talk AI into agreeing with damned near anything, so I'm stuck. This is the only forum I know with consistently thoughtful conversation, and I can't think my way out of this one, and I have real work to do.

The erlang docs only go as far as saying it’s functionally similar to CSP.

I think the term Actor Model has been so semantically diluted at this point that the phrase also understates what Erlang has as well.

Neither CSP nor AM require process isolation to work, which means they can work when they work but fail much much worse. They are necessary but insufficient.

Right, but "distaste" isn't grounds for trying to ban something. There are all kinds of things people and companies do which I dislike but for which there's no just basis for regulating. If Adobe properly licenses all their training data artists don't have a right to say "well i think this is bad for creativity and puts my job at risk, ban it!!!" Or more precisely, they have a right to say that, but no moral justification for trying to ban/regulate/sue over it.

My impression from Ericssonland:

Around year 2008 being an Erlang coder was often more or less seen as being a COBOL coder in Sweden. Bluetail had sort of failed, having burned lots of VC, iirc.

So Erlang was something weird and custom that Ericsson used to build software for legacy phone exchanges. I remember that a colleague's wife working at Ericsson had received on-the-job training from essentially zero programming knowledge to become an Erlang developer in order to maintain some phone exchange software.

It's been fascinating to see it morph into something cool. Whatsapp, etc.
If you only stream your music then the difference is negligible, but Apple Music blends Spotify-like streaming music with your personal library of music you own. It's built off of iTunes in this regard. One perk of this is that you can upload your own music and it shows up everywhere matched to the real albums and artists; Spotify's support for streaming local files is much clunkier.

This article seems like it would strongly contribute to people misunderstanding things.
I've read the books, mulled them over, discussed them with others, and done some reading of what other critics have to say online. I've given my opinion and some of the reasoning behind it. If you want more of my reasoning I'm happy to give it. You have given nothing in response. It feels a lot like you've jumped to conclusions because my opinion is very different to yours. So you've immediately decided not to engage but are nevertheless hellbent on making me out to be uninformed or stupid.

We've clearly got off on the wrong foot here. I don't want to make out like I think Heinlein is crap. He had a lot of fantastic, creative ideas about science, technology, culture, sexuality and governance. He was extremely daring and sometimes quite subtle in the way he explored those ideas. But - in the novels I've read - his characters lack a certain depth and relatability. They express very little of the self-doubt, empathy, growth, and deep-seated motivations that are core to the human condition. So it goes also with Asimov, Clarke, Bradbury, and others. And it's fine that those weren't their strong suits. They had other strengths. And there were other writers like Bester, Dick, Le Guin, Zelazny, Herbert etc... who could fill the gaps.
The answer is because of how much (or little) background is needed to understand each concept.

For example people don't develop intuition into what an exponential with a complex power should be until after have been introduced to it through power series. But understanding why those power series mean what they mean requires understanding the power series for e^x. Which means that they need to already understand e. Therefore you need to introduce e before you introduce exponentials with complex powers - you can't do it the other way.

That said, you will occasionally encounter mathematicians who advocate for teaching about e by first demonstrating that 1/x has an integral, calling its integral ln(x), then demonstrating that the inverse function to ln(x) is an exponential function and calling it e^x. The argument for this order of presentation is that we can present every step of this with mathematical rigor. The argument against this order of presentation is that students find it very confusing. And very few students will ever notice the logical gaps in the usual presentation.
Make a compiler that takes Rust and compiles into some IR, then another compiler that compiles that IR into GPU machine code. Then it can work and that's going to be your API (what you developed in Rust).
