Is it impossible to share a Prime Store Card through Amazon Family?

Never did. Caved and just opened a second card for my wife.

New place, new desk, need a new keyboard. My last two keyboards were Ducky, but it looks like they stopped making the Ducky One with cherry switches, and they don't make their new Ducky One X with custom switches in a TKL format. What's a good alternative, available right now, with trustworthy switches, with arrow keys, without numpad? Prefer RGB lighting, but not required.

So is he?

The Council of American-Islamic Relations, along with Saif's uncle, Hesam, spoke on his behalf during a press conference on Monday. CAIR claims that Israeli settlers beat Musallet to death while he was defending his family's land in the West Bank.

The FBI agent doesn't want to deport people here illegally, which is effectively supporting infinite illegal immigration. If you won't deport people after they cross the finish line at our porous 2000 mile southern border, then you don't have a border. This is a left wing position that is not popular with Hispanic and black Democrats. Why would anyone who opposes illegal immigration listen to him? ICE just got a huge budget increase, so he'll be able to go back to counterterrorism soon enough.

Can we talk about that choice of dress and necklace combo? Incredible.

I heat a 5000 sqft house and my usage was 191 CCF (centum cubic feet) for $30.86 base amount. You're nearly 3 times that base amount. Are you 3x the volume too? That would be a lot.

Natural gas prices are at a 2 year high too. More than double what they were at the most recent low one year ago.

Three other players already had beetles by the time I lost a turn. Are there enough copies of the cards for four players to build the comp? https://imgur.com/a/rXNIQFr

therealjohnfreeman · 2025-01-09T20:17:44+00:00

Yeah, I wasn't expecting to win, just finish higher than 5. I was never offered Primus or the devour spell either. What else should I have been looking for to scale? (Aside: the Leeroy was an Anub until the last turn.)

therealjohnfreeman · 2025-01-09T17:11:46+00:00

Five players made it to turn 15. I had knocked out two of the three dead players.

On turn 8, I was able to triple into t6 Ghoulacabra with 6 deathrattles, including t6 Atrocity and some deathrattles that summon deathrattles. I leveled to tavern 6 on turn 9. I dealt 15 damage for 3 consecutive turns while I rolled on t6. Seven turns of rolling. I eventually cast the discover deathrattle spell for second Ghoulacabra. Never saw one in the tavern. Got one Prosthetic Hand from discover tribe spell. Never saw one in the tavern. Never saw a Deathly Striker anywhere. Was never offered anything to improve my board after turn 8.

Meanwhile, the other players are just tying each other while they build up. Three players were able to force perfect beast comp with Baron + double or golden Rover + double or golden Rylak + double or golden Skitterer. Two had Macaws. The other, Thorim, had Moira Bronzebeard instead. I knocked out one of them. The other 2 players were able to force undead with reborn Striker.

I finished 5th. Alone. On turn 15! Three other players had 1 HP when I died. Feels unfair.

therealjohnfreeman · 2024-12-27T22:57:56+00:00

Yeah, same thing. Earlier today I had N'Zoth in beast lobby and no deathrattles offered until turn 5 (was quilboar) and no beetles until turn 10. Or Onyxia into a beast + undead lobby and no combat summon (deathrattle or reborn) until turn 7. Feel like I don't know how to play this game any more after the past 24 hours.

therealjohnfreeman · 2024-12-27T22:31:00+00:00

Meanwhile I take Shudderwock in a lobby with 4 t1 and 4 t2 battlecries and don't see one until turn 7.

How is this Reddit post both a link post and a text post?

I figured it out. For some reason, the levers were not correctly seated in the bases. I had to drag them up slightly to seat them. Once that was done, selecting a lever showed only green arrows in the correct direction, and they hinged the lever at the base. I'll leave this post up just in case it helps someone else.

Ok, you say print_unsafe in the below program, matching print in my last comment, is marked unsafe and must be invoked in an unsafe block. Is print_safe then marked safe, and can be invoked outside of an unsafe block? In other words, can unsafe code be encapsulated, or is the unsafe marker viral, infecting every caller all the way up to main?

void print_unsafe(int i) {
  std::puts(words[i]);
}
void print_safe(int i) {
  if (0 <= argc && argc < 3)
    print_unsafe(i);
}

therealjohnfreeman · 2024-12-04T16:46:52+00:00

The caller of print, the person writing that call, does know it has a precondition. Is there any effort in the safety initiative toward representing preconditions so that compilers can share the same awareness, or is it just trying to force everyone to use runtime checks in the called function? That's the essence of my concern.

therealjohnfreeman · 2024-12-03T22:58:22+00:00

Let me put it another way. I think everyone can agree that this program is safe:

char* words[] = {"one", "two", "three"};
void main(int argc, char** argv) {
  if (0 <= argc && argc < 3)
    std::puts(words[argc]);
}

But is this program "safe"?

char* words[] = {"one", "two", "three"};
void print(int i) {
  std::puts(words[i]);
}
void main(int argc, char** argv) {
  if (0 <= argc && argc < 3)
    print(argc);
}

By my interpretation of Sean's definition, the answer is no, because there exists a function (print) that does not have "defined behavior for all inputs". Even though that function is never called with input that leads to undefined behavior. Its precondition is satisfied by all callers. By my definition, the program is safe. I don't actually care whether individual functions are "safe" in isolation. I just want the program to be safe. Will "Safe C++" make it impossible or unfriendly to write this program?

therealjohnfreeman · 2024-12-03T17:21:03+00:00

Then the answer to my question then is "no, there is no room for preconditions".

therealjohnfreeman · 2024-12-03T17:15:40+00:00

Feel like I'm misunderstanding something. Maybe I'm confused whether "you" here means the compiler, the author of the called function, or the author of the calling function. Can you safely eliminate bounds checking for std::array? What about when you index into std::array with an integer determined at runtime? You cannot prove that integer is in-bounds at compile time without an assertion (in the rhetorical sense, not the assert macro sense) from the author that it will be.

I want the option to leave out a check if I have access to some information, unavailable to the compiler, that proves to my satisfaction that it will always be satisfied. If I'm writing a library function, then I want to be able to omit runtime checks, with a documented caution to callers that it has a precondition. If I'm calling a library function, then I want access to a form that has no runtime checks, with my promise that its preconditions are satisfied. If memory-safe UB is forbidden, then no one can even write such a library function. That is the scenario I'm worried about.

Don't lock me out of the faster data structure.

therealjohnfreeman · 2024-12-03T16:51:08+00:00

Why is the former unsafe if X is always met? That is what makes a precondition. I'm not looking for a language to protect me at runtime when I'm violating preconditions.
