I believe it’s a cheeky reference to humans intentionally cultivating hot peppers specifically because of their capsaicin-producing quality. :)

For those that are arguing that this is simply a legal arbitrage, or financial engineering of some sort, I suggest reading the actual indictment. From page 4: > at relevant times to this Indictment, a Manhattan-based music distribution c

Yeah, I suppose I went in primed for a more opinionated style just because of the fact that I was reading an unknown author’s Substack rather than something that purported to be news. I definitely take your point about moving the partisan c

Honestly, I feel better if an author makes their personal biases known rather than try to conceal them beneath a facially impartial analysis. It naturally invites more scrutiny on the claims being made, but IMO it’s more intellectually hone

IIRC the property ‘each single digit has the same density’ is the definition for a ‘simply normal number’ (in a given base), while ‘each finite string of a particular length has the same density as all other strings of that length’ is the d

Sure, but it is an option (as well as everywhere along the spectrum up to maximization), and so ‘people want to move there’ is not on its own a justification for ‘prices must go up’.

But this doesn’t offer any justification for why, for locations that people highly value living in, we as a society ought to do anything other than maximize the number of people living there.

FWIW the concurrency story has been getting substantially more attention over the past couple of years with first-class language support. Swift 6 aims to be data-race-safe by default.

No, the SO post is accurate—it’s trivially easy to create strong reference cycles in Swift and @escaping annotation is only of limited use in detecting strong reference cycles. Though Swift also broadly pushes towards the use of value types

Example of a distribution which would not fit this description: 1. 4096 2. 2048 3. 1024 4. 512 5. 256 6. 128 ... Here, the frequency of a word is inversely proportional to its rank to the power of two, not the rank itself.

On iOS each password item in Settings.app has a "Share" button that lets you AirDrop to another device. I don't see another way to export from iOS. Safari on macOS (at least in Monterey) offers a bulk export option, which can

FWIW, iOS 15 lets you put a TOTP secret right into the saved password entry on your phone, and it will autofill the code just like it autofills your password.

That problem could have been resolved via type erasure (either via `AnyView`, or, if SwiftUI had been designed differently, by having the `body` property be of type `View` rather than `some View`). In fact, opaque types (a la `some View`) w

From what I understand, SwiftUI uses this so that each "snapshot" of the View tree generated by the app can be intelligently diffed against future snapshots. This helps make rendering more efficient, as well as with things like an
