Actually if you look at others&#x27; analyses[0] some of those sites have a high mean and&#x2F;or median. On median score alone samaltman.com should be #1. The highest &quot;mainstream&quot; news source would be newyorker.com, it does have a low median, but the average is ~20 times greater.<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.google.com&#x2F;spreadsheets&#x2F;d&#x2F;1-TCo1mxiTkO4ZiXg5acUMProDzxbuWCS0sS9I7HMJAM&#x2F;edit#gid=3476623" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.google.com&#x2F;spreadsheets&#x2F;d&#x2F;1-TCo1mxiTkO4ZiXg5acU...</a>

This is definitely going to be big for enabling cross compiling. I&#x27;ve been fighting to get things working sanely. Is there any info on how one would build a new stdlib&#x2F;corelib for a target? I&#x27;m actually anxious to see how much it might help to be able to use Rust on small ARM processors.

&gt; - Built-in concurrency<p>This is a bit misleading, rust does not come with concurrency out of the box. The compiler is able to infer some basic properties of your program to ensure that it is &#x27;concurrency safe&#x27;[1] any additional concurrency features are offered through libraries that mostly wrap C libraries. The std lib only comes with system threads, and some basic primitives like mutexes and channels. However, because of these features its fairly easy to build libraries that offer concurrency primitives. For example, `mio`[2] can be used for async socket programming, `rayon`[3] can be used for some parallel computation.<p>[1] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.rust-lang.org&#x2F;2015&#x2F;04&#x2F;10&#x2F;Fearless-Concurrency.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.rust-lang.org&#x2F;2015&#x2F;04&#x2F;10&#x2F;Fearless-Concurrency.ht...</a> [2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;crates.io&#x2F;crates&#x2F;mio" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;crates.io&#x2F;crates&#x2F;mio</a> [3] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;crates.io&#x2F;crates&#x2F;rayon" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;crates.io&#x2F;crates&#x2F;rayon</a>

After many failed approaches, I came with conclusion that the best way to practice algorithms (and math) is to trying to solve some problem which you can not solve and getting stuck, after you tired and failed to solve a problem, you can read answer how to solve a problem.<p>This will help your brain to remember particular method&#x2F;algorithm&#x2F;concept because your brain will think that this is very important problem, a sort of missing puzzle for your brain.<p>If you just passively read book about algorithms, you will have false feeling that you learn quickly but you will forget everything very soon and not being able to reconstruct any of algorithms you learned so far.<p>If you participate in algorithm contests, you will struggle a lot and after contest you will read editorials and may be redirected to CLRS or Knuth books.<p>Your learning curve will grow very slowly but believe me you will get very solid knowledge which won&#x27;t be forgotten for a long time.<p>P.S. I practised a lot of passive learning by reading algorithms books. I forgot almost everything. Now, I&#x27;m switched to learning though competitions. It&#x27;s hard way but very solid.

Most marketing emails do this right. Some are close. Other require a login. Clearly if I have to login, they haven&#x27;t achieved on-click unsubscribe. What I want to discuss here is the &quot;close&quot; situations. I just unsubscribed to a NVIDIA marketing email subscription. The email link did not immediately unsubscribe me but instead went to a page with an &quot;unsubscribe&quot; button. I clicked the button and got an error message: &quot;Please confirm that you are not a robot&quot; but since I use ublock, the CAPTCHA control (3rd party javascript) didn&#x27;t get rendered. Anyway, I found this annoying and wondered if others thought that NVIDIA had failed to deliver on &quot;one-click unsubscribe&quot;.

Aside from different tools having different strengths, I enjoy learning to use new software. I think if I used one tool for everything I would get bored with it.<p>That said, learning new keyboard commands is sometimes a real PITA.

The way I see it is so-called &quot;work-life balance&quot; assumes 50% work and 50% life i.e. the balance which I&#x27;d say is not desirable to most people. Working 12 hours and then 12 hours for your life which would include eight hours sleep leaving four hours for your life.<p>Of a 24-hour day you (supposedly) sleep eight hours, another eight is your awake non-work life, eight hours is company work so work should be at most 33% of your day and 66% your life.<p>You&#x27;re the fulcrum move that balance!

I think you have that wrong. One major criticism of Meyers-Briggs is that it measures things that <i>are</i> normally distributed, and assigns them categories.<p>For an easy example of why (if true) this would be a valid criticism, consider IQ, which is normally distributed. I will give you an IQ test and assign you into one of two categories: smart or dumb. If you are below the median, you&#x27;re dumb, if you&#x27;re above the median, your smart.<p>It should be obvious why this makes little sense; the large number of people very close to the median are divided in two and put in the same category of those with either very low or very high IQs.<p>To assign people to one of two categories, one would want to see a distinct bimodal distribution, then there would be a small number of people for whom which distribution they belong to is ambiguous, and the majority could be confidently assigned to one or the other.

I think in reality it&#x27;s simply a matter of everyone having their own build of the kernel and needing their own set of kernel modules. Google could have solved this in some way with Android, went for something closer to the way drivers work on Windows, a single long term service kernel that everyone builds their drivers against.<p>But instead they told everyone to just build it themselves... resulting in the current situation. They could have also solved the updating problem in the same way.<p>No big deal though, someone will make this build on other platforms if there&#x27;s interest. It&#x27;s all open source and I&#x27;m sure some 14 year olds on XDA are already racing to make it build on their phone from 1982. Then I&#x27;ll probably flash it. Because that&#x27;s apparently who I trust to write my phone ROM.

Go&#x27;s unique proposition, IMHO, is compile times. If you have a codebase that&#x27;s 10 million lines, with 10 or 100 developers working on it for 10 or 20 years, <i>compile times really matter</i>.<p>Can you build a language that runs on the JVM that compiles as fast as Go? Perhaps. Java sure ain&#x27;t it, though.

You can easily write a for loop that optimizes to memset without relying on undefined behavior. The only potential problem is that the loop bound evaluation could require a memory access, but this is simple to work around.

A doctor is as fairly well defined upper-echelon level of a particular skill path. A programmer is a generic term for someone who writes code. If there were a more general push for medical literacy, it would be entirely equivalent, and I would say justified, to say &quot;You too can learn to give medical care!&quot; If we had well defined titles for categories and skill levels for programming, the equivalent to &quot;You too can be a doctor!&quot; would be something like &quot;You too can be a [senior lead on a complex software project]!&quot;.<p>Also, let&#x27;s not forget that sometimes the truthfulness of the assertion takes a back-seat the the desired effect it will have. Very often we tell children &quot;You can be a doctor&quot; when at certain points we know the likelihood of that is very, very small (for any number of reasons, such as aptitude, circumstance or history). The urging may not make them become doctors, but if it makes them expand their ambition and try for a hard goal, the end result may well result in a better outcome for them, regardless of whether they indeed become doctors.

In case someone searched &quot;UC Davis&quot; and <i>didn&#x27;t</i> find 3 articles in the results on Google or DuckDuckGo or some other search engine.<p>I didn&#x27;t find that specification particularly odd, personally.

Vim is a language to edit text and you can use that language in a lot of development environments. if you code all day it&#x27;s worth learning.<p>verbs like ci&quot; (change inside &quot;) which deletes inside the current double quotes and leaves you in insert mode are pretty easy to get used to. dd deletes a line and puts it into the yank register so you can paste it somewhere. u undos an action.<p>using a plugin with visual studio is pretty king to get the best of the IDE and the most common vim functionality.<p>Classic SO answer on why vi: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;stackoverflow.com&#x2F;a&#x2F;1220118&#x2F;1772636" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;stackoverflow.com&#x2F;a&#x2F;1220118&#x2F;1772636</a><p>edit: here is another classic why vi answer that is a bit different <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.viemu.com&#x2F;a-why-vi-vim.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.viemu.com&#x2F;a-why-vi-vim.html</a>

I&#x27;m seeking recommendations on a workflow for using emacs for C++ -- what are the good emacs tools to install and use for editing, code-completion (in-context completion that shows a menu of only possible completions for the object would be nice), step-through debugging, compiling, etc -- basically, replacing a power IDE with emacs, is possible?

The author stretches his analogies substantially. It&#x27;s nice to see this was happening 22 years ago just like it is nice to see UNIX from more than 22 years ago still being used today.<p>Edit: i.e. it isn&#x27;t so nice. Not much progress.

I&#x27;m not on the platform team, but my understanding is that if you&#x27;re on OS X or Linux, and you grab Firefox 45 right now, there&#x27;s a _tiny tiny_ bit of Rust code in there. Windows will be in 46 or 47, IIRC?<p>So it begins.

First of all, this is a cool looking tool. Useful, well-organized, easily-accessed information is always a wonderful thing.<p>I think a model like Dash would work a lot better: Rather than opting in my code to be sent up to Kite&#x27;s servers, I opt in to the packages I&#x27;m interested in having indexes for. In some cases, as with node, there are ways to see what packages my project depends on and then those bits of indexed data could be sent to me.<p>My computer has a 512GB SSD. I could devote 10GB to indexes of libraries and my own code without blinking. The argument that it&#x27;s too much data and therefore belongs in the cloud doesn&#x27;t seem to hold up.<p>Also, there are cases where I&#x27;m not online... this is one of the great things about Dash. I have fast access to library docs anywhere I happen to be.

Yup. There&#x27;s even one cool feature we already know will be in 1.10: stable bootstrapping. You&#x27;ll be able to build Rust 1.10 with Rust 1.9. And Rust 1.11 will build with 1.10. And so on and so on. This should help packagers significantly.

Citizens United did not say &quot;money == speech.&quot; It said that peoples&#x27; right to make and distribute movies with core political speech does not disappear just because corporate money is used to do it. If Citizens United had gone the other way, e.g. the government could have banned the Google and Reddit protests against SOPA&#x2F;PIPA.

It is not a theory. It is an actual conspiracy.<p>From the link:<p>&quot;On April 9, 1947, nine corporations and seven individuals (officers and directors of certain of the corporate defendants) were indicted in the Federal District Court of Southern California on counts of &quot;conspiring to acquire control of a number of transit companies, forming a transportation monopoly&quot; and &quot;conspiring to monopolize sales of buses and supplies to companies owned by National City Lines&quot;[35] which had been made illegal by the 1890 Sherman Antitrust Act. In 1948, the venue was changed from the Federal District Court of Southern California to the Federal District Court in Northern Illinois following an appeal to the United States Supreme Court (in United States v. National City Lines Inc.)[36] which felt that there was evidence of conspiracy to monopolize the supply of buses and supplies.[37]<p>In 1949, Firestone Tire, Standard Oil of California, Phillips Petroleum, GM and Mack Trucks were convicted of conspiring to monopolize the sale of buses and related products to local transit companies controlled by NCL; they were acquitted of conspiring to monopolize the ownership of these companies. The verdicts were upheld on appeal in 1951.&quot;<p>Then you have President Eisenhower appointing the president of GM as the secretary of defense:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Charles_Erwin_Wilson#Secretary_of_Defense" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Charles_Erwin_Wilson#Secretary...</a><p>..and Francis DuPont appointed as chief administrator of highways, whose family, coincidentally owned the largest share of GM stock:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.fhwa.dot.gov&#x2F;administrators&#x2F;fdupont.cfm" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.fhwa.dot.gov&#x2F;administrators&#x2F;fdupont.cfm</a>

When you&#x27;ve got 10 subprojects open and every few new lines of code you save your file, resulting in a build triggering a cascade of plugin actions and more than a few seconds of mouse spinning, then yeah IDEs are slow and clunky.<p>When my IDE stops working one morning because yesterday&#x27;s system crash resulted in a plugin being unable to load properly and subsequently peppering me with dialog boxes or worse, crashing the IDE, then it is definitely clunky.<p>When I just want to do code browsing across 500,000 lines of code and it takes 2-3 seconds every time I hover over a symbol just to populate the object list, that is slow.<p>Your experience sounds great. My experience has been that every IDE configuration falls into rot after 6 months to a year or so and the whole thing needs to be deleted and reinstalled. That&#x27;s also slow.<p>Meanwhile, vim+ctags+gdb have given me years of reliable service. More than once I&#x27;ve had an IDE collapse into a pile of errors and turned to my trusty basic tools, only to leave the IDE as the steaming mess that it turned into for weeks or even months as I just didn&#x27;t need that browsing or inline debugging power at the time.

If you keep someone at work for this long, you should pay them at contract rates.<p>I would really like this as an option.

Well, okay, let&#x27;s talk about that. Is having source control in your text editor enough of a benefit to one&#x27;s daily routine as to be a step change of productivity or quality of life? It may be for you and I&#x27;m not saying you&#x27;re wrong for that, I&#x27;m asking because it isn&#x27;t for me; I have an alt and a tab key.<p>Bear in mind that the claim wasn&#x27;t that <i>it&#x27;s better in some ways</i>, but that it&#x27;s sweepingly better than the stuff that came before (and Atom wasn&#x27;t even mentioned by the OP, which is funny--I mean, I don&#x27;t use it, but it&#x27;s obviously in the conversation).

There&#x27;s only one reason they ever remove a UC Chancellor: they stop raising money for the University. Donor cash is job one. Obviously, she&#x27;s good at her job if she makes money, even if she moonlights in jobs that actively harm students.<p>The only solution is to stop donating to UC Davis -- and UC in general. If the Annual Fund calls you, ask them &quot;Has Katehi resigned yet?&quot; That&#x27;s what I do. If you really want to help students at UCD, give to ASUCD or CalPIRG or something, not to a slush fund of a Chancellor who spends student fees on her own image.<p>Disclaimer: UCD alumnus here.<p>Edit: Although five lawmakers calling for her resignation might also decrease donations to the UC: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.sacbee.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;investigations&#x2F;the-public-eye&#x2F;article71848252.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.sacbee.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;investigations&#x2F;the-public-eye&#x2F;art...</a>

Okay, but if you didn&#x27;t go to college those 4 years, you&#x27;d have a full-time job to pay for those things. For most people, 4 years of college implies 4 years of not working, or 4 years of low paying part time jobs.<p>A lot of people cover those costs with student loan money, so they&#x27;re relevant to a conversation about student loans.

The problem you describe is one of unreliable compilers, here the problem is that the C standard allows a few undefined things to cause an avalanche of undefined behaviour. What the compilers do is totally correct according to the standard, but not at all what programmers expect.

It&#x27;s a really tiny thing, but Faraday uses <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;faradayio&#x2F;credentials_to_env" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;faradayio&#x2F;credentials_to_env</a> to download secure credentials from a Vault server, and write them to environment variables or files. Alternatively, you can just pass in environment variables manually and ignore Vault (for testing, etc.). This acts as glue for existing programs that don&#x27;t know about Vault. This is actual production code, even if it&#x27;s really minor.<p>The goal here was a single binary that would work on most modern Linux distributions, and which could make some HTTP calls and then <i>exec</i> another program, typically all from inside a Docker container.<p>Rust was a bit overkill for this, but we already had a couple of the necessary libraries available from in-house experiments, and it was fun to write. The two best features of Rust for this project were: (1) If the program compiled, there was a 95+% chance it would work flawlessly on the first try, and (2) Cargo was really just lovely all around.

After using rust a bit I would say that unless you requirements dictate being very frugal around things like memory allocation and speed etc.. I would not use rust to write said application.<p>As other people have posted it seems to compete with C&#x2F;C++. I am really excited about this since I think there are a lot of problems with C++ we just don&#x27;t see them because there is no competitor.<p>For example in C++ reflection and interfacing to other higher level languages is awful. I am hopefully with rust we can do better! That might really open up rust a lot of uses for rust as a language.<p>Another area where rust is different from python and java: the rust crates in the wild still seem like a wild west of 0.x version packages that break frequently (at least for games programming). It is a great opportunity to contribute to OSS but can also be frustrating.<p>My recommendation: if you have a pet project unix daemon or CLI tool you wanted to make try it with rust. Most of the rust standard library seems to have stabilized and is nice to use now. For complicated applications be prepared to contribute upstream fixes to crates and bring lots of patience :)

And you didn&#x27;t reply to their comments with, &quot;Thanks for the compliment. Oh, BTW, that doesn&#x27;t mean I&#x27;ve forgotten about <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;newsite.com&#x2F;StoryAboutBadThingsYouDid.html&quot;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;newsite.com&#x2F;StoryAboutBadThingsYouDid.html&quot;</a> to skew the Google stats?<p>Of course you didn&#x27;t, because that would be mean, yet oddly satisfying.

Wait, is this a different rustup than rustup the shell script?

That&#x27;s great. People got to their destinations faster with the same level of risk as before.

Not duplicates, but more noise than signal.
