I would rename `x` to `foos` and jump to the function/use IDE hints for the exact type when needed.

an interesting demarcation of subjective mental encapsulation ... associating the anonymous type of a buffer with the buffer's name ... as opposed to explicitly specifying the type of an anonymously named buffer

This "literally" is not true for most people. I typically go many years between traumatic events, and most of those are better designated as standard major life events than severe trauma.

If you've genuinely been that miserable everyday of your life you might want to consider getting some sort of help.

literally everyone and everything has had the shit traumatized out of it on a daily basis since forever , if anything this overpathologization seems to be increasing trauma and hypersensitization

In what sense? The phrasing is just a generalization, production-grade anything needs consideration of the needs and goals of the project.

the language technique of negative parallel construction is a classic signal for AI writing

Things like this and other custom "Windows distros" are a sign that MS would have no problem selling a version of Windows that's nothing more than a base OS, but clearly they would rather take the user-hostile route.

why would ms do that when they could make more money by not doing that ?

Why not? 40% migrant, of direct or 2nd generation <other culture> and so massive amounts of cross-spread into different world experience and outlook. It's a giant melting pot (and not only because if you leave the pot outside, it melts)

for that particular statistic to be relevant you would have to cross correlate against recent immigrants to australia and whether or not working from home is relevant to their places of employment , then you'd have to start factoring in a culture where laziness is valorized (in stark contrast to the work to death ethic presenting in say japan or america) , and at some point it should probably considered that australia has a world class social safety net ... on a personal basis it does seem likely that a similar outcome would occur globally , because the outcome was literally nothing ("no notable change among people who were not already dealing with mental health concerns") ... just trying to make the point that social science is extremely blind to confounding variables

I still believe that the actual cause was tin whiskers, but all the RoHS lobbying buried the evidence.

im sure that any reasonably charismatic software engineer could scare the shit out of a judge/jury based on code analysis ... perusing the linked nasa document, recurrence odds of this particular failure mode do seem significantly greater than the odds of a cosmic bit flip ...

Does it also work for people not on the Australian spectrum?

Aeglaecia · 8 days ago

while i do fully expect your comment to get downvoted it is pretty funny and a great question when considering that australian society is probably not a relevant sample space to generalize against

this brings us to a cultural divide, westerners would see this as a personal scar, as they consider the integrity of the publishing sphere at large to be held up by the integrity of individuals

i clicked on 4 of those papers, and the pattern i saw was middle-eastern, indian, and chinese names

these are cultures where they think this kind of behavior is actually acceptable, they would assume it's the fault of the journal for accepting the paper. they don't see the loss of reputation to be a personal scar because they instead attribute blame to the game.

some people would say it's racist to understand this, but in my opinion when i was working with people from these cultures there was just no other way to learn to cooperate with them than to understand them, it's an incredibly confusing experience to be working with them until you understand the various differences between your own culture and theirs

im not sure if you are gonna get downvoted so im sticking a limb out to cop any potential collateral damage in the name of finding out whether the common inhabitant of this forum considers the idea of low trust vs high trust societies to be inherently racist

I mean, I know it. But the antipsychiatry/anti-ECT folks often do not know the answer to this question.

it would be of more interest personally to discuss the topic at hand itself rather than involve our personal opinions , so if you can't make your point another way this is where our ways part
