Plenty of schools on American military bases! And a school across the street from the IDF headquarters.

I'll give you a hint: many of our most prominent politicians openly proclaim that it is a religious Commandment from God Himself to do whatever that country's leaders want.

Amazes me that, after the events of the past 3 years, so many people still think Russia is the major foreign influence on American politics.

We also restrict which establishments can sell all those things! Some more than others. E.g. liquor licenses

Is it really that impossible to believe that these might be real? I enjoy a good conspiracy theory as much as anyone, but "they committed a bunch of felonies and then publicly admitted to them in order to look good " just makes 0

Converting people to a modern religion is a lot easier when their existing culture and beliefs are less developed. So there is a race of sorts, to convert as many less developed groups to your religion as possible before a rival religion ge

How does that apply to open-weight models?

You can even define your own functions that return `!` on stable Rust! The type has been stable in the return-type position since 1.0. (There is a trick you can abuse to access the type everywhere: https://docs.rs/never-say-

> For many years, the standard library has had an `Infallible` type to work around the unstable nature of the never type. It served the same semantic purpose as the never type, but did not have any special compiler support. Therefore, co

https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#volatile-memory-accesses : > Volatile operations are permitted to trap. The compiler may not assume that execution will continue after a volatile operation.

Some of those cases have been fixed. For example, Clang used to reorder UB around volatile loads, but the latest version no longer does so.

> Rust UB […] is meant to be limited in blast radius, and is absolutely not meant as a loophole for compilers to just do whatever to make the code faster. This isn't true. Rust UB is meant to only be possible to trigger via `unsafe`

> This also secured Israel’s long term prospects in the region, which seems to be one of the most sacred directives of American policy. Not really—it massively increased Iran's influence in the area, which is why in 2007 they had to

Cooperating with Al-Qaeda is a decades-old policy—started under Clinton, brief pause after 9/11, then returned in full force in late Bush years (2007 "redirection") and hasn't stopped since.

For particularly heavy patients, on occasion the only way is to knock down a wall.

How certain are you that it is so rare? EMS are disproportionately called to the poorest and most miserable.

You don't always know what the location is like though. You are called to an apartment: maybe it is spotlessly clean, maybe the floor is littered with used needles

Here in America, EMS personnel generally wear tall, reinforced boots; they are considered protective/safety equipment. We would never take them off just to enter a home

You can use Rust's `wasm32v1-none` target to get baseline WASM with no extra target features. (This restricts you to `#[no_std]`, however.) https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc/platform-support/wasm32v1-no...

Same way you prevent monopolies based in your own country from forming. Anti-trust regulation. Your country's government controls how companies operate inside it

As long as there are many competitors, that's better than a monopoly, even if some of the competitors are foreign. Powerful monopolists restricting our freedoms is not in the interest of Americans long-term.
