A pretty obvious explanation as to why Odin has more games written in it is that the language is somewhat explicitly marketed towards that use-case, even going as far to have a vendor library collection that includes many popular game dev libraries.
I am using games, because they pop up more often (gamejams etc), but we can see the same if we'd look at utility apps. Do you want to broaden that to "Odin is more explicitly marked towards writing applications", but if so what would that say of Zig?
I would begin by questioning the premise. Do you have actual numbers on this? I’m not really aware of any widely adopted software that’s written in Odin. Can name multiple in the case of Zig
Get organized. Join a mass movement, a local group or a union. There are many people doing things. Stop complaining then excusing yourself for not being one of them.
I don't know why you're being downvoted. This letter is completely toothless, and what you're suggesting is literally the only thing that these people could do that would make a difference.
I think it's clear that the reduction in teen pregnancy is indeed a big contributor to the decreasing fertility rate. I would guess the reason this doesn't get brought up in discussions about how to _increase_ the fertility rate is that reversing the trend on teen pregnancy is just really not a palatable solution to many people. Although there are some, usually on the religious right, who advocate for banning contraception, teaching abstinence-only sex education, etc., which would most likely have the effect of reversing the teen pregnancy trend.
I think not talking about it skews the conversation towards incorrect remedies - the discourse is about what has changed about the economy, communities, family life, etc, that makes people want fewer kids and then trying to derive solutions from those things as the assumed problem. It makes too much of the discourse a question of “how do we go back to the previous conditions?”
If instead we say this is a biological imperative that we have interrupted and many people don’t rationally want children no matter how perfect those conditions are, then instead of looking back to previous states, we can ask what new conditions must occur to change this behavior.
Good reminder to always remember Chesterton's Fence. The post indicates that the bottleneck occurs when "many thousands" of EC2 instances are connecting simultaneously. In order for this to happen, presumably someone had to turn `max_connections` way up on their database server to make this to work at all. Seems like the issue could have been avoided at that point with a bit more understanding about why the default is an order of magnitude or more lower than whatever they tuned it to.
CLEAR is basically (mostly) self-service pre-verification by a commercial entity, achieves near the same exact thing as it is done at the TSA agent with RealID now.
The CLEAR system uses CAT or CAT-2 to send info to TSA to validate. Same, exact protocol and information as it is with the TSA Agent.
The only meaningful difference is that the biometrics is pre-stored with CLEAR, while the other travelers are collected at the TSA agent stands and compared to RealID.
There are multiple countries where all of this is done with dark technomagic. You can see this witchcraft working with Global Entry (CBP, not TSA).
What is interesting about this is that CLEAR has a relationship with the airports (mostly), not TSA. Airports are the ones pushing CLEAR so they do not have insane queues, not TSA.
Not that I'm anyone important, but at this point if I google someone and they show up on the Canary Mission website, I'm inclined to hold them in higher regard.
Huh? It's quite sensible to make reference to someone else's work when writing a philosophy paper, and there are many ways to do so that do not amount to an appeal to authority.
