How does this latest release compare to lld? Can it run on alpine/musl?

The largest and strongest animals are herbivores and yet people are obsessed with eating flesh because “protein”, lol

An appreciation for hypotheticals?

The latter, preferably.

I went from Python to Go to Rust. Go plays up this fantasy of types helping you catch bugs, buts it’s really C with lipstick. There’s no enums, no exhaustive matching of any kinds, there’s null to worry about everywhere, and every utility function has to be painfully written out for each type (maybe that’s starting to change now with Go having basic support for generics).

What about in near earth asteroids?

Is there a specific height that the catalyst should be released at? Any unintended side effects from increased concentration of the catalyst?

How much more blatantly dystopian can you get? Terrifying.

Gradually, then suddenly.

Yes. I want to develop in Rust from my MBP, which means running clippy and my tests. However, it has a shoddy battery, and will power off if I do anything too intensive (like doing a long compile).

With this feature, I can push the IDE backend to my 5800X pop_os desktop sitting at home, run all the compiles there remotely, and enjoy working from my MBP remotely (without the scalding CPU exhausts onto my lap, or the severe battery drainage).

A defunct Russian satellite is destroyed in orbit and its debris threatens astronauts upgrading Hubble and the Chinese space station located in a similar orbit.

It’s scary how accurate the plot is to the real-world situation…

Fantastic dive into the applications of graphs, thank you.

> […] But collection of personal data is a bad thing whether it has consequences or not. Just knowing it's being collected changes one's behaviour and makes one feel unsafe. This is how a panopticon prison works. For those who are unfamiliar with Panopticon prisons:

> The panopticon is a type of institutional building and a system of control designed by the English philosopher and social theorist Jeremy Bentham in the 18th century. The concept of the design is to allow all prisoners of an institution to be observed by a single security guard, without the inmates being able to tell whether they are being watched. > … > Although it is physically impossible for the single guard to observe all the inmates' cells at once, the fact that the inmates cannot know when they are being watched means that they are motivated to act as though they are being watched at all times. Thus, the inmates are effectively compelled to regulate their own behaviour.

One could easily draw a parallel here. An interesting paragraph here describes the design of the incentive structure within the prison’s management:

> [The prison’s designer] thought that the chief mechanism that would bring the manager of the panopticon prison in line with the duty to be humane would be publicity. Bentham tried to put his duty and interest junction principle into practice by encouraging a public debate on prisons. Bentham's inspection principle applied not only to the inmates of the panopticon prison, but also the manager. The unaccountable [prison officer] was to be observed by the general public and public officials. The apparently constant surveillance of the prison inmates by the panopticon manager and the occasional observation of the manager by the general public was to solve the age old philosophic question: "Who guards the guards?"[6]

The age old answers to this philosophical question propose that a guardian for the guard to be an absurd idea, or one that plays out only with a plurality of guardians, who guard others against the deception of other guardians’ “noble lies”.

> A noble lie is a myth or untruth, often, but not invariably, of a religious nature, knowingly propagated by an elite to maintain social harmony or to advance an agenda. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noble_lie

You’ll find camaraderie in the Rust community, we have similar stories… :)

One of us, one of us, one of us!

How so?

Why?

“…an object forced to move faster than its terminal velocity will, upon release, slow down to this constant velocity.”

https://www.britannica.com/science/terminal-velocity

IIUC, the meteorite was forced or “released” into its “high magnitude inertial vector” initially, and would continue to decelerate as it approached to the surface… whether it did much of that on the way down is a different story!

Who’s they and how can anything be “out of reach”?

Ignorance is bliss

Vaccines does not _prevent_ infection.

Vaccines prevent _diseases_ that can be dangerous, or even deadly. Vaccines greatly reduce the _risk_ of infection by working with the body’s natural defenses to safely develop immunity to disease.

That website: “Please provide a complete profile about you and your personality, and we will make all your dreams come true. Don’t worry, we totally won’t sell or leak this data!”

It is not a “can be”, it’s a “must be”. Models or an abstraction of complexity are necessarily both reductionist and useful.

This is a wonderful dose of realism, mixed with slightly too much cynicism.

Could you post this list as a simple comment here? This would make it more accessible and shareable, compared to individual tweets.

Thanks for posting this.

Source? That’s fascinating, almost beyond belief, and I’d love to dig into related research.

What book?

Have you started working on any solutions for 1 and 2?
