Since we are sharing free CS eBooks, Algorithms by Jeff E. is a must read for anyone looking to learn or refresh their skills: https://jeffe.cs.illinois.edu/teaching/algorithms/book/Algor...

In my experience, people tend to be more annoyed by the time spent writing code and overcoming the obstacles that are not "solving the problems" but will simply zen out the hours spent debugging, refactoring and testing manually with a meditation podcast.

This reminds me of Microsoft's Project Palladium, 20 years ago. This was the ancestor of TPMs and trusted computing in general embedded in the CPU.

It used to be a huge scandal because people (rightly) feared that it would enable Microsoft to have a say on what can be executed or not, or only allow DRM protected content to play.

I've been doing Python full time for about 4 years now. I always found that when pattern matching is used it always ends up increasing the cognitive load significantly. It shines for simple cases, and for precise object pattern sniping. But anything that acts on nested objects or more than 3 members with multiple case statements is pre-programmed for failure. What makes it worse, is that there seems to be a trend where other Python adepts will default to pattern matching over everything else, like a too good of a hammer.

yt-dlp works really well, and not only for YouTube ;)

And some influencers ;)

This is apparently how they located Ben Laden in Pakistan, usisng drones and watermarked sounds.

Not if you encode a cryptographic signature in the watermark

tl;dr: it's a gas compression/decompression energy storage mechanism. It's nothing new and I have never seen one being being financially viable so far.

The fact that we can let a duopoly of payment processors dictate the morals of our societies based on the morals of a few militant cluster B "concerned moms" is very very scary.

Use anyio to get compatibility with both and lots of async related tools like object steams.

Very interesting, but 20 minutes seems very low to fully try a language learning app. would you consider extending to a few hours?

KIAs ratio is not what determine a war's success

And now every regime who feared getting regime-changed will have an interest of developing the bomb. Gaddafi effect is real.

It's a country of 100M people. They're not just gonna be have their "ass handed to them", just like it didn't happen in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq1, Iraq2, Yemen and Afghanistan. Countries do adapt to bombings, especially when there's a superpower nearby.

Also if they "were just about to have the bomb" then they could develop it and use it after. So there is the conflicting position that they are both insane to use it and but both sane to not escalate the conflict. This is where most pro-war arguments fail the basic logic test in the nuclear bomb era.

The predicate that Iran has them but would show restraint is the same that same that they don't have them but will show restraint and not use desperate measures like blowing up the entire Middle Eastern oil production and distribution network and ports and not use dirty bombs.

Which shows how much of BS the pro-war argument was to begin with.

The point of Iran of enriching U beyond civilian use but not actually going full military grade was leverage. They're the only Shiia super power in the reigion. Nobody likes them.

So what can we expect:

* a ground invasion is pretty much out of the question considering the geography or Iran and its neighboring countries.

* Iran destroys every oil production and transport sites in the region (say good by to your election, Republican Party)

* they could fast produce the bomb and test it underground as a final warning

* OR they fail and resort to more desperate measure like a dirty bomb

* OR they fail and there is some sort of regime change

* Or there is some kind of extended war of attrition and it makes the refugee crisis from the past 20 years seem like it was a mere tourist wave.

In any case, this will accentuate the Qaddafi effect and more nations will follow the North Korea option of nuclear "unauthorized" nuclear dissuasion, which is also the case for Israel by the way. Talking of which, Israel will become politically radioactive in the world. Its support is already negative in nearly all countries and has dropped significantly in the US such as the evangelicals.

The module probably has its own global register and ever time Computed() is called it adds to it.

Until your use case hasn't been deciphered by a Nix scribe and then you have to fight the magic.

The bias towards positive hypotheses is a consequence of the lack of fundamental discoveries. Most scientific researchers at this point are publicly funded engineering projects with no expected ROI. This is not a bad thing per se, but the culture of research based around making an impression in some noble's court is no longer viable. The incentives need to be shifted to good research and good methodology and need to be results agnostic.

I'm not that experienced in VPNs and other distributed services. Can I use this to access my self-hosted servers at home and access them from the outside; without having a VPN or a reverse-proxy? Or, "explain like I'm 5" version, can I use this to host my Minecraft server at home and play with my friend?

Tyranny is more of an actual and grave danger. And tyrants tend to be abusers too anyway.

This reminds me of my old university days where we would setup a Minecraft server and make it accessible through Hamachi (which has enshitified and therefore never really took off beyond those simple use cases).

Semi-public authorized access networking really is the future of a more private but more distributed Internet in the age of state sponsored hackers and IoT DDoS bot farms.

Glad to see that we have the type-checking equivalent of Ruff!

> The US is so weird right now.

You think the US is weird? Wait until you hear about what Lincoln did in his time, ha! Even weirder than that thing about committing high treason to create a kingless country with a sovereign elected by the gentile masses of all people! And all that just for "unjust" taxes for wars made and won in their own territories, tsk. There's a good reason why they call it the American "experiment"; because experiments are weird.

> You have a President who is ordering the defunding of tons of groups (universities, media, aid, institutes) while not clearly having that authority and often doing so for what he views as ideological crimes.

> Also arresting and trying to deport people for things that are not clearly crimes (newspaper op-eds, etc) and without due process.

But in all seriousness, I don't see how the end of funding is weirder than the end of it, especially given the history of the the country. I don't see how the status quo is somehow more legitimate. The President is the only elected official of the government. Congress passes laws, and the judiciary can only issue judgements and have no power over the purse nor the sword. The president has the authority to decide where the money goes and how it is attributed and how the laws are executed. The same goes for the non-citizens who reside in the US under the privilege of a visa or other executive permissions; the legal precedents about this are quite clear that the President has broad authority to decide who gets to stay or not. "Due process" defers to the question to which process is due, in the case of illegal aliens there is none except what the executive decide what is due, except for the determination of the illegal alien status in itself.

A lot of lawsuits claim a lot of things. Not a lot of them are true.

I don't see bullying from a machine as a real thing, no more than people getting bullied from books or a TV show or movie. Bullying fundamentally requires a social interaction.

The real issue is more AI being anthropomorphized in general, like putting one in realistically human looking robot like the video game 'Detroit: Become Human'.

I don't see how it is different than all of the other sources of information out there such as websites, books and people.

Your whole argument is based on "it's causal because we saw a peak just after a bank collapse", as if a fire started bt a spark couldn't have fuel and generate other sparks in a positive feedback loop. The rest is basically "there is evidence that" without nothing to back it up.

See Rustici (2005),Irwin (1998), Bond (1993) and Crucini (1996)

It's basically java -> wasm/webgl -> your computer

A 10 times hit compared to a native C implementation on performance doesn't really matter anymore, but a compounded 10x10 times will.
