Sorry, but using new syntax to accomplish something other languages have as library code is not clever.
When reading zig code you have to stop and think, "wait does this syntax mean zip or direct product?" But when expressed as a function called zip, the meaning is clear.
(Obligatory reminder that zig devs think that sometimes running code inside `if (false)` is a minor bug of no consequence, and after all what are the real motives of anyone pointing it out, eh?)
KSP2 is universally regarded as an unmitigated disaster. We are at 3 years after the original release date (for the full game) and all that has been released is a fundamentally broken "Early Access" release. It is a rocket building game, and rocket physics are broken. The only things that work in the game are the bits useful for making pretty screenshots or short videos, for advertising purposes.
Anyways, actual reviewers have been saying that the game's UX choices make actually getting to bodies other than Kerbin harder in KSP2 than KSP1, especially for newcomers. For example, TWR information is missing, intercept information is missing, apsis information can't be viewed while editing maneuvers, and delta-v information is alternately missing or wrong. These are all fundamentals which should be present even in an EA release, and while they are things KSP1 experts can work around, they make it impossible for newcomers to accomplish anything.
This game will never (truly) leave EA; it will be killed.
> Freedom of speech isn't freedom of consequences.
Freedom from consequences is the only possible thing freedom of speech could be, other than not having your mouth sewn shut.
What you meant to say was, what we value is freedom of speech from government consequences, not private actors. And that is a value judgement, not definitional. The incorrect statement you used is spread by people trying to hide the former as the latter.
Well, in the US, "Freedom of speech" is often used in the context of the US constitution so, while it is indeed freedom from consequences, it's freedom from consequences in the narrow sense of freedom from the consequence of the government using its police power to imprison you for saying something.
ADDED: In other situations the degree of saying whatever you want is very context-dependent and also dependent on what consequences you're willing to suffer.
Speaking of KJP, Buttigieg's press secretary literally accused media representatives of violence because they asked her questions about this incident, while Pete was on-site. Really puts KJP in a positive light, relatively speaking.
The scientists said it wasn't a lab leak. The science, from the very start, could have been interpreted either way.
In fact the only real evidence, and all of it tenuous and circumstantial, is in support of a lab leak. There is actually not a single piece of direct evidence AFAIK for zoonotic origin, except that that route is possible (ie no mutations that would be impossible naturally, etc) and the overwhelmingly usual route for novel pathogens.
> I would have thought anything that can radiate heat slowly and consistently would by necessity also absorb heat slowly and consistently
Aside from the technological measures mentioned in other replies, I'm not sure this follows. Thermal energy transfer is proportional to the temperature difference. So a high thermal mass storage can absorb energy quickly from a high temperature source, experience a small change in temperature, then expel the heat slowly into a sink slightly cooler than itself. That is a gross oversimplification but it at least it shows that the effect is not too surprising.
I've read several articles from the Atlantic in the past few days which suggest it is a right-wing publication. (E.g., this one is about reducing government size and citing the far-right IJ organization.) This is odd because I hadn't really identified it that way before. Anyone have info on why this sudden change?
Probably not related, but I didn't realize until a Wikipedia glance[1] that Laurene Powell Jobs, Steve Jobs's widow, owns The Atlantic. And that she was also an investor/board member of Ozy and co-founder of a previous venture (College Track) with its CEO, Carlos Watson, both of which have, uh, been in the news lately.[2][3]
I’m seeing recent featured articles titled “The GOP is just obnoxious,” “Republicans’ 2024 magical thinking,” and “The humiliation of Kevin McCarthy.”
The author of this article, Jerusalem Demsas, is a black woman who writes about institutional failures and progressive issues related to housing in Democrat-leaning cities.
The Atlantic certainly doesn't read as right-wing to me. It does seem however that there's been some more awareness on the left lately of cases where too much red tape can hurt progressive causes. This recent episode of The Ezra Klein Show had a good perspective, I think:
