Venezuela, Greenland, and this. Anyone notice how these extreme events all happened around the same time of the Epstein files getting released with highly publicized questions about all the redactions? It certainly seems like a distraction game.
The difference is that the actions and rhetoric around Venezuela and Greenland and the Fed reserve are direct actions by Trump. The thing in Minnesota is a tragedy but I don’t think he told anyone to go out and kill somebody on the street.
I ask you to look deeper into what's happening there and reconsider your stance. US citizens are being beaten up and harassed, as are non-citizens. ICE officers are using their cars to ram observers and then arresting them violently. They arrested a teenaged clerk at target and then threw him out of a vehicle onto the street upon realizing he was a citizen. A woman was filmed being taken into a portapotty in handcuffs by a federal agent. The violence is quite clearly systematic. Watch the videos.
The stuff I mentioned, the clear escalation, happened over the last few days, starting on the 7th. Along with the USDA suddenly cutting off all funds to Minnesota (which includes SNAP benefits for > 100k people). I don't see how this is any different.
They give access to these features to their partners before general release, but this A/B feature has existed for quite some time now. I’ve seen various Patreon tech creators run those A/B tests and see them discuss them in their creator Discords.
Unfortunately, it’s also apparently so useful that numerous companies here in Europe are replacing entire departments of people like copywriters and other tasks with one person and an AI system.
ChatGPT did much better but I cannot paste it into this text box no matter how many times I try with different formatting to get the white space preserved. chatGPT also could not figure out how to format it for pasting here.
If you look at the actual harmonics of a string and of horn, you will see how wrong you are. There is a reason why they sound different to the ear.
It’s because of this that you can have a relatively inexpensive synthesizer (not sample or PCM based) that does a crude job of mimicking these different instruments by just changing the harmonics.
There is one important difference between the harmonics of string and wind instruments: it's possible to build a wind instrument that suppresses (although not entirely eliminates) the even harmonics, e.g. a stopped organ pipe. If it sounds like a filtered square wave it's definitely a wind instrument. But if it sounds like a filtered sawtooth wave it could be either.
edit: in the past you would always get blocked, now I don't get blocked anymore when visiting lobste.rs with Brave. Anyway, do with this information as you please.
"bug" can refer to many categories of problems, including logic errors. I've certainly seen uninitialized variables be a source of bugs. Stackoverflow for example is full of discussions about debugging problems caused by uninitialized variables, and the word "bug" is very often used in those contexts.
I think what they mean, and what I also think is that the bug does not come from the existence of uninitialized variables. It comes from the USE of uninitialized variables. Making the variables initialized does not make the bug go away, at most it silences it. Making the program invalid instead (which is what UB fundamentally is) is way more helpful for making programs have less bugs. That the compiler still emits a program is a defect, although an unfixable one.
As to my knowledge C (and derivatives like C++) is the only common language where the question "Is this a program?" has false positives. It is certainly an interesting choice.
I mean that bug is *not in* uninitialized variable - bug in program logic. E.g. one of code pathes don't initialize variable.
So, I see uninitialized variables as a good way to find such logic errors. And, therefore, advice to always initialize variable - bad practice.
Of course if you already have a good value to initialize variable - do it. But if you have no - better leave it uninitialized.
Moreover - this will not cause safety issues in production builds because you can use `-ftrivial-auto-var-init` to initialize automatic variables to e.g. zeroes (`-fhardened` will do this too)
