If you didn&#x27;t go to college for those 4-ish years, you&#x27;d still have to pay for lodging, food, and other necessities, so it depends on what you&#x27;re trying to analyze which number is better to use.

&gt;You say &quot;no&quot; in response to my comment concerning socialism preventing two people from entering an agreement--then why can&#x27;t I hire someone for $4 an hour, if that&#x27;s what they and I agree upon?<p>Socialism itself doesn&#x27;t prevent you from hiring someone for $4 an hour. Current laws (which may be based on socialist principles) do that. You could argue that, in a future with a universal basic income, we wouldn&#x27;t need a minimum wage, as people could survive on even no wage. Would this be more or less socialist than things as they are today?<p>&gt;Does the absence of a modern state which meets this criteria prove the point? Hardly. It does not follow.<p>Prove beyond a shadow of a doubt? Of course not. Prove within reasonable heuristics? Depends on your definition of &quot;reasonable&quot;. Our definitions are clearly different.<p>&gt;Take any sector of the modern economy which is heavily affected by socialist programs and you will find a sector which is scraping by.<p>A failing but necessary industry is one ripe for being regulated by a socialist government. Perhaps it is not the socialist regulation that caused the failure, but the failure of the industry to meet public need which drives regulation. You may find this reversal (or un-reversal) of cause and effect ironic, but it really comes down to the classic correlation vs causation question. Without better research, we really cannot know.<p>For now, I am comfortable with the concept of a government advocating on my behalf for the purposes of improving aggregate outcomes. Certainly, governments may fail or do poorly, but I do not think it is a pointless effort. It sounds like you disagree.

The last update was the Windows 10 one. It addressed a LOT but it still has a long way to go to be on par with the 360, and the network stack is still extremely hit and miss.<p>Nevertheless, this dash actually works so it does have that over the first one.

It certainly looks from the extension API docs that this is a thing the world needs - a modern GUI shell that allows arbitrarily complex extensions to be written in a language people seem to like. Having looked around the docs as a very heavy emacs user, I am not totally discouraged - every keypress seems to point at a command, and if everything is rendered as HTML, I assume it is effectively infinitely customizable (would love to hear opinions from experienced extension authors). If, on top of that, it solves a lot of emacs&#x27; foibles, like threading issues, performance edge-cases etc, then I plan to keep an eye on it.<p>That said, the available extensions seem pretty bare. I don&#x27;t see many mentions of REPL interaction, and there are no extensions for many languages. I&#x27;m glad it&#x27;s getting attention, but I suspect it&#x27;ll take a decade of loving care to bring up to the level of most people&#x27;s emacs configuration. I see no reason that couldn&#x27;t happen more quickly, though.

<i>&gt; It&#x27;s certainly not a good situation that the user still needs steam, but the games themselves can really be sold and distributed anywhere.</i><p>Well, I don&#x27;t think requiring user to have Steam equals not being tied to it. I.e. you can&#x27;t release the game let&#x27;s say on GOG, and require users to have Steam client to play it.

I never switched to Atom (from WebStorm), but I&#x27;ve made the switch to VSCode and I like it!<p>It just works. The workflow is fine for me, git integration is a plus. Compared to Atom, I don&#x27;t need to try plugins to get descent functionality.<p>Actually, it&#x27;s the first MS product I use in like... 10 years?<p>I used to be an emacs fan, I used to be an Eclipse plugin developer, I used to be a WebStorm user... now I prefer VSCode.<p>I love how it makes the best of screen real estate compared to WebStorm

Oh hell no. Deals are fragile things- so are startups and I dont think what he does torpedoes it nor would he intentionally do that. He&#x27;s just trying to encourage a settlement.<p>I think GM still could close even if this drags on to court since it&#x27;s a very weak claim and an escrow could be used to handle most of the problems. I think this deal still closes - my advice is if you worked for 1 month as a comfortable and it&#x27;s more than like 500K - take it. My guess he&#x27;s being offer ed 5m+ or so - if so he&#x27;s insane not to jump at it. It could go to zero.

<i>&gt;You went from ...</i><p>I went from Math to Semantics because I was engaging with your points specifically... and you mentioned the technology angle because...

I wasn&#x27;t making a universal treatise about government backdoors such that anyone from anti-vaccination parents to moon landing deniers will be convinced of the merits.<p>The technology impossibility of digital locks used by angels-vs-demons mentioned by CodeGrey is a red herring and not really part of the debate that I&#x27;ve heard.<p>Instead, people like Obama&#x2F;FBI&#x2F;NSA <i>already know</i> that a backdoor provided to the government is impossible to keep out of criminals&#x27; hands. They knowingly avoid mentioning the misuse by criminals and only highlight the benefits of catching terrorists. They don&#x27;t need to be convinced of math proofs because that part was never the stumbling point.

And ASAN (the Address Sanitizer). I always have them turned on for development builds (slowdown of about 100%). Only release builds have them switched off.<p>Recently: Use-after-free of a memory block. ASAN told me:<p>1. Where and in which thread the use-after-free occurred (including stacktrace).<p>2. Where and in which thread the memory was deallocated (including stacktrace).<p>3. Where and in which thread the memory had originally been allocated (including stacktrace).<p>Fixing the bug took about 30s with that info.

You can shorten the duration of loans, which is a great idea, but typically only in big jumps: 15 or 10 year loans. You can also pay down the loan faster or put up bigger down payments. Again, great stuff.<p>However, many people don&#x27;t do this and end up spending a lifetime in the early parts of a fixed-payment amortization schedule, where the realized interest rates are very, very high.

Well, the point is that --across-devices won&#x27;t be a flag you use as a matter of habit, it&#x27;s something you&#x27;ll only use when rm tells you it won&#x27;t cross the device boundary and you realize that, yes, you really do want to delete across a device boundary. So you&#x27;ll only add it in the specific cases where it&#x27;s warranted, and you&#x27;ll have already tried rm without it (to verify that you&#x27;re deleting the right thing).<p>Come to think of it, I don&#x27;t think I&#x27;ve <i>ever</i> used rm to delete across device boundaries. It just doesn&#x27;t seem like an action you usually want to take.

&gt; You see Scala as a complex language because you need to learn something before you use it<p>No, I see Scala as a complex language because—much like C++—each library uses its own curious dialect. There is no community consensus on the balance between the object-oriented and functional. It&#x27;s a mess, albeit a mess I&#x27;d prefer over most other languages. But dealing with implicits, language changes between versions, and &quot;default&quot; trait implementations (e.g. `val foo = Set()` is a simple example) makes me consider the language nightmarish.

Seems like they talk a lot about how it&#x27;s a problem but don&#x27;t put the effort into solving it.<p>In other words, they aren&#x27;t interested in getting generics. Not really.

&gt; I constantly see Kotlin advocates claiming better Java interop but I don&#x27;t see how<p>I think generally when people say this they mean things like:<p>1. You can freely mix and match Java and Kotlin files in the same package<p>2. Being a more lightweight layer on top of Java makes interop with all Java environments (specifically Android) more practical

For anyone that thinks either the government, or that matter the general public, doesn&#x27;t understand the intent of the bill, you are wrong.<p>Government clearly understands what is going on and has every reason to support laws like this.<p>What may not be clear, is that in my opinion, average person understands what is going on, but is afraid. Understanding this fear, and how to counter it is the key, not figuring out how to help people understand how the bill would function in the real world.

Anecdotal but from the various policies I&#x27;ve observed on my sites, a shill DMCA-like notice to remove content is often enough to get that content removed. A service that does nothing but send thousands of these to all top google searches would seem feasible and somewhat effective. Again the internet is not free if we use it as a collection of walled gardens.

&gt;If law were derived from universal morals (heh...) then that might be accurate.<p>Well, there&#x27;s a pretty big difference between &quot;I shouldn&#x27;t get arrested for smoking pot&quot; and &quot;I shouldn&#x27;t get arrested for murdering rival pot dealers.&quot;<p>Maybe western law is mostly derived from a sensible universal moralism with certain exceptions. That doesn&#x27;t mean that all criminality is rational or that the OP&#x27;s opinion that most criminals are irrational is wrong. For every Robin Hood there&#x27;s hundreds of thousands of street thugs. I think you&#x27;re overpleading the edge cases here. Many studies have shown your average criminal to be a fairly messed up individual: mental illness, strong personality faults, poor reasoning skills, poor executive control, poor discipline, etc.

Good question. The actor model communicate via mailboxes, which execute callbacks sort to say. Essentially this produces the callback hell.<p>Taking away the initializations, this is the ping pong example in Erlang:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gist.github.com&#x2F;torgeir&#x2F;3978785" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gist.github.com&#x2F;torgeir&#x2F;3978785</a><p><pre><code> ping(Receiver) -&gt; { pong, Receiver } ! { ping, self() }, receive pong -&gt; io:format(&quot;Got pong!~n&quot;) end. pong() -&gt; receive finished -&gt; io:format(&quot;Pong finished~n&quot;); { ping, Sender } -&gt; io:format(&quot;Got ping!~n&quot;), Sender ! pong, pong() end. </code></pre> This is the same in Transient: A message is sent to the receiver print &quot;ping&quot; in his console, then send a message to the sender, that print &quot;pong&quot; in his console<p><pre><code> pingPong receiver= wormhole receiver $ do teleport lliftIO $ print &quot;ping&quot; teleport lliftIO $ print &quot;pong&quot; </code></pre> You see that the ping and the pong are composed &quot;monadically&quot; in a single piece of code. The flow is quite understandable.<p>Just start the program in both nodes (initialization code is not shown)<p>This is a distributed program but I can compose this program with any other.<p>This other program stream integers from a remote node from 1 in increasing order:<p><pre><code> streamFrom node= wormhole node $ do teleport r &lt;- threads 1 $ choose[1..] threadDelay 1000000 teleport return r </code></pre> I can compose both distributed programs:<p><pre><code> composed node = do r &lt;- (pingPong node &gt;&gt; return 0) &lt;|&gt; streamFrom node lliftIO $ case r of 0 -&gt; putStrLn &quot;pong was received&quot; n -&gt; print n </code></pre> `composed` print the numbers received and the &quot;pong&quot; messages followed by &quot;pong was received&quot; in the console of the caller.

&gt;You can&#x27;t design a sword that can be used safely by the untrained. No weapon can be, training with a weapon is a prerequisite for safely using it.<p>I was tank crewman in the US military, and there is a high chance of death of dismemberment from regular tank operation. Drivers have very limited visibility, tank turrets can pin people as they traverse, the breech of the main gun violently recoils into the crew compartment with limited guards, the rounds can be exploded by static electricity (or just plain lit on fire), I&#x27;ve saw one guy smash all teeth out when riding inside and the tank hit a hole, and so on.<p>We had a saying: &quot;tanks are designed to kill, they don&#x27;t care who.&quot;

<i>If you want to get people using a Friendly C, you need to start convincing the biggest users of C and C++ that they should give up performance for a simpler dialect of the language.</i><p>Why would would C++ programmers have to give up anything? You may notice that the frequent complaint (and title of the article) is &quot;undefined behavior in C&quot;, and the hypothetical replacement language is &quot;Friendly C&quot;, not &quot;Friendly C++&quot;. From the point of view of most who are troubled, rightly or wrongly, C++ isn&#x27;t considered relevant to the problem or the solution.<p>I think part of the &quot;divide&quot; is that compiler writers (and probably C++ programmers) are more likely to lump C and C++ together. This makes sense, as C++ is mostly a superset of C, and since many of the optimizations being questioned operate at the level of internal intermediate language that&#x27;s the same for both. But many C programmers don&#x27;t view them as being the same language at all, and have no opinion on how C++ compilers should operate.<p>Perhaps what needs to be questioned is assumption that the needs of C and C++ programmers can effectively be served by the same compiler?<p>(I realize I&#x27;ve responded strongly to two of your comments in a row. I care strongly about the issue, but don&#x27;t intend this to be an attack. Rather trying to convince you that you&#x27;re wrong, my goal is just to understand what produces the gap between our viewpoints.)

&gt; This isn&#x27;t easy, and I know the problem space is larger, but does anyone ever do this for software?<p>Typically the state space is simply too large to be practical. It is, admittedly, how a lot of verified software is done (because there are so few verified compilers), though often then the source-code to assembly correspondence is verified manually, which limits possible optimisations.

1. Doctors are paid very well. Much better than most tech jobs. Starting salaries after all residences&#x2F;fellowships are completed and board exams passed are $250k+. Doctors can also moonlight even while in residency (after passing board exams I think) for, from what I&#x27;ve heard, about $1k per 12 hour shift (~$83&#x2F;hr).<p>2. Nurses are also pretty well paid and eligible for overtime in most cases.<p>That said, there&#x27;s a big push lately to limit the number of hours doctors are allowed to work in a row. It was common to pull 36 hour shifts in some cases (with naps&#x2F;downtime but still in the hospital and on call), but now people are starting to realize that having sleep-deprived people administering medical treatment is not such a good idea.

The number you use for principle doesn&#x27;t make any sense. People are buying housing with a mortgage, not just the house (that is, living in a house for 5 years is worth more than $0).<p>It&#x27;s very true that mortgages are expensive and it&#x27;s unfortunate that we have priced our housing market to 30 years of payments.
