Leetcode is a great way to polish your skills. When I was your age, I read programming books and made projects I cared about, it’s turned out very well.

I’ve helped a few others learn programming, practice and working on any project at all always help more than anything.

The real example of a health check trait really brings this issue to life, it’s linked within op’s article as well

Is this a reasonable summary?

Say you want a trait where a method returns a task that you would like to sometimes run within your own thread and sometimes move it to a separate thread to be executed, that means the Send constraint isn’t necessary to add to your trait but it would be nice to add that constraint within another method’s parameter definition so that it can accept structs that implement the trait and further constrain that implementation to be Send’able. That’s now possible with this new rust language feature, though it was previously possible through a crate, now it’s no longer needed.

For the sake of external consistency, seeking a problem to fit the solution:

It seems like there’s relatively little on the ship in the way of rotational mechanics, doors make a pneumatic sound, etc. Perhaps the equipment is highly EM sensitive? Like the electromagnetic waves from a motor could screw then up somehow kinda like electrostatic issues in a computer?

I explained a little about buffer overflows, but in essence programming is the act of making a fancy list of commands for your computer to run one after the other.

One concept in programming is an “array” or list of things, sometimes in languages like C the developer is responsible for keeping track of how many items are in a list. When that program accepts info from other programs (like a chat message, video call, website to render, etx) in the form of an array sometimes the sender can send more info than the developer expected to receive.

When that extra info is received it can actually modify the fancy list of commands in such a way that the data itself is run directly on the computer instead of what the developer originally intended.

Bad guy sends too much data, at the end of the data are secret instructions to install a new program that watches every key you type on your keyboard and send that info to the bad guy.

There is a ton of literature out there, but in a few words:

Rust is built from the ground up with the intention of being safe, and fast. There are a bunch of things you can do when programming that are technically fine but often cause errors. Rust builds on decades of understanding of best practices and forces the developer to follow them. It can be frustrating at first but being forced to use best practices is actually a huge boon to the whole community.

C is a language that lets the developer do whatever the heck they want as long as it’s technically possible. “Dereferencing pointer 0?” No problem boss. C is fast but there are many many pitfalls and mildly incorrect code can cause significant problems, buffer overflows for example can open your system to bad actors sending information packets to the program and cause your computer to do whatever the bad actor wants. You can technically write code with that problem in both c and rust, but rust has guardrails that keep you out of trouble.

At the start of the study, we asked participants to take a visual sensitivity test. For the test, they had to press a button as soon as they saw a triangle forming in a field of moving dots. People who would develop dementia were much slower to see this triangle on the screen than people who would remain without dementia

It certainly feels like the cost of groceries has been growing at a much more significant pace than the one reported here, it may be worth discussing the methodologies used.

Is this using the average of all goods as in the grocery store has 100 cereals by 10 brands and only 5 cereals have increased their prices by 50% therefore the general trend is pretty flat?

Or is it accounting for volume purchased as well? If those 5 cereals account for 95% of all cereal volume, the metric should be much more heavily swayed by their rate of increase.

I say this because perhaps it feels worse than it appears in these metrics because the specific brands and products available to us and frequently purchased may be inflating higher than industry averages, and “hiding in plain sight”

Guy shoulda tried emacs instead, wife is probably an elitist

Aww man uncalled destructors were definitely not even on my radar

We yearn for answers to why we’re here, there’s a reason religion has been such a huge part of there human consciousness for so long, our brains are hard wired to find reasons for everything.

Since there is no known objective answer to this question, I’ll answer it subjectively, recognizing that my life experiences have tainted my views.

Life has no purpose. People who do immense “evil” will not be punished. People who do immense “good” will not be rewarded.

Your existence is a beautiful, flighty phenomenon. You are a heap of octillions of atoms that somehow gained self awareness. Your happiness is merely a chemical exchange in your skull meat, it’s fine to strive for happiness but it’s fleeting.

I personally strive for serenity, accepting reality for what it is and making peace with it. Nothing matters, we’re all going to lose the gift of consciousness through inevitable death, and that’s okay.

You have copilot? You’ll be fine if so, just throw down comments for what you want it to do and tweak it when it doesn’t compile.

Appcenter does OTA push updates, dev is probably making a fast update system so they don’t have to push updates to the various stores, the app was made in react native so appcenter is pretty standard for codepush OTA updates

Raised mormon, did the mission thing, moroni’s promise was bullshit so I switched to general christianity, realized that it’s just another brand of bullshit. Currently agnostic/atheist/who cares.

IF there’s a god, he’s not a fucking primate with a sphincter- humans are so freaking narcissistic to think the “ultimate” being of all time is just like them.

IF there’s a god, why would he be omniscient/omnipresent? You created this post, do you actively control how it interacts with people’s minds?

IF there’s a god, and he’s the christian idea of a god, he’s evil. No loving being would send their “children” to a test (omniscient, knowing the future) knowingly sending them to a place where the result would be them suffering for eternity.

IF there’s a god, their existence doesn’t answer the question of where we came from, what came before god? If your answer to this question is “god just always was” you’re an idiot who missed the point.

Yes however, they also have access to your keyboard in realtime with getAsyncKeyState or event hooks in windows at least, so I’m not sure that’s a strong argument.
