There seems to be a typo in the 4th paragraph (directly under the struct memory table). I'm counting a padding of 7 bytes. 96 (size of struct) - 89 (size of primitive types) = 7. The first padding consist of 3 bytes to correctly align the 4 byte int after a 1 byte bool. Second padding is 2 bytes due to a 4 bytes int following two 1 byte bools and third padding is 2 bytes as described in the blog, 3+2+2=7 bytes of padding.
Hm very strange the title did have to do with Flock Safety when it was first posted and now is referencing Claude not sure of user error or something to do with hacker news. I’ll put a tin foil hat on for just a second, Flock Safety is a graduate of Y Combinator so maybe the misnaming is not as innocent as it may seem?
My 2 cents: I live in the Atlanta metro and it’s crazy just how much Flock has permeated communities. From main streets to small neighborhoods flock safety cameras are in use everywhere, it is off putting. I’m not sure if HOAs are the ones OKing them or if it’s the city but having a private corporation able to run cameras that read plates and can potentially surveil home consistently seems like undue erosion of privacy
Ah yes, I went Flock-spotting through the Atlanta suburbs. HOAs are encouraged to buy them. As long as you've got the $2500-per-camera-per-year ($208/mo) for their all-inclusive package, you too can adopt your own little invasion of privacy by the roadside.
Which also means... I know I'd really be pissed if I was stuck helping foot the bill for an entire gander of them when the HOA dues come in...
Ok keeping the dividend aside another way to look at this is instead of layoffs they insituted a pay cut for everyone with senior personnel taking more of the effect. Of course questions arise of what headwinds are they really facing or are they just taking advantage of the current rhetoric but either way I am a fan.
Just wanted to chip in; great explanation. Often as a citizen of one country vs another it is tough to understand the logic behind some decisions but this actually made sense to me. Still think the costs of war is high but the logic behind entertaining such an idea is a little clearer.
Hey I'm not a diplomat but I believe the problem with this specific problem is that in the the case of 'right to clean environment' how to you protect your rights? Do you sue your neighbor for litter or the company down the street for emissions? How do you prove that emissions are out of control? Also how do developing nations who may not have the legal strength who are just as affected by pollution from developed nations exercise their rights?
Now the question of a slippery slope could be that with a right to clean environment developed nations could stifle growth and innovation in developing nations citing clean environment worries (maybe Nigeria and oil). This could go way deeper than oil however as any country trying to harvest any sort of natural resource can face scrutiny and potential action. In an extreme example developed nations could then say 'we will mine these resources because we can do it less intensively' robbing nations of potential nation building revenue. How would you combat this? Maybe a 'right to develop' and boom rights dilution and authoritative in nature. Perhaps am extreme example but extreme isn't too far with people involved.
This being the UN, I don't think there's going to be many legal intricacies because it's mostly a debate forum with little to no strings attached. Even ICC rulings serve more of a ceremonial/PR role than an actual court ruling: The world has judged you and very publicly found you guilty of stuff, but it's really up to the Security Council countries' own governing bodies to do something about that.
As things stand, what this decision does is make it look like the UK has a vested interest in polluting the world, which makes exactly 0 sense to me from a foreign policy POV: this is not something countries want to look like they stand for.
Hence my asking, I just can't make the decision or the arguments behind it make sense?
I'm curious because I'd also like to take steps to lower my carbon footprint. How do you travel for vacations? Do you only take local ones? And also how about people that you want to see in other areas of the country/world?
The answer no one wants to hear is that no words can convey what one learns from just committing. I'm in my fifth year and I haven't been able to convey to anyone the mindset shift. It's like trying to describe hearing Beethoven's ninth in Carnegie Hall, except bigger and better. What words can you use?
I agree with all your points but as an aside tickets where I currently live are $5 before 6pm or $5 with a student ID (held on to college one) anytime. Moviepass still would be a deal here.
