Great post, incredibly helpful.

Especially number seven on the list. I get the feeling that any online job posting decreases your chances of getting noticed by a significant amount. I know in my company we only post stuff online because we feel obligated, we don't give those applicants nearly as much credence as we would someone who is referred by someone in our network.
Node.js is more than a network library, but you are right it is easy to create a TCP server. I have created many scripts using Node.js and I am not the only one.
Man, the whole site was a pleasant experience to browse. I was browsing it because it was just fun to.

The idea is perfect and I encounter this problem daily and always too lazy to bother setting up a dynamic dns.

Signing up for an unlimited plan right now.

Well done.
I second the dark contrast point. My first reaction on the site was "omg, what can I do to put some color and some life here".

I even tried playing with the bookmarks on the top right corner to see if they would light up the site.
You can "crack" or "reform" any hydrocarbon to any other at the cost of some energy. Plastic tends to be ethane -> polyethylene, and the like. The fraction called "naptha" which is between ethane and gasoline in refining tends to be used as chemical feedstock.
Yeah, that does happen to me too occasionally, and I'm not sure why. I wonder if it's Clementine's fault or the binary blob.

> Possibly the most telling sentence I have ever read about Rust. I am (well more honestly, was) excited by the language but until there is some sort of stability guarantee, it is a fun toy, a distraction.

> The Rust community appears desperate to have continuous improvement at the core language level, and despite some hand-waving, it feels like they simply won't be pinned down.

What is the impending 1.0 release if not that? We've been very clear all along that 1.0 means language stability. I see no "hand-waving".

> I will watch it with interested post the May 15th 1.0 deadline -- but since they shipped entirely new Path and IO in Feb -- added new language constructs and removed others (Alpha2)... I am worried...

Why would you be worried that we're following precisely the schedule that we said we would?
Ah, if you have a plex server that makes that part easier. But really depends on how you use it, e.g. if you explore YT together an app that can browse is obviously better than just downloaded backups.
> Didn't get the building permit for your kids horse barn? Sue the planning commission members individually. Animal control writes you a citation for Puddles not being on a leash? Unleash the lawyers. Health department gave your wine bar a bad rating? Sue the inspector personally.

That’s exactly the way it should work! If an animal control guy has it in for you and writes you off-leash citations every week while you’re in your own back yard, if the health inspector says he won’t permit black people to stay in business, then you absolutely should be protected by the law. Anything else is plain classism: an implicit assumption that members of a certain class are always in the right, and a requirement to deal with conflict with them not from a position of equal power and rights, but only by hoping to convince them to have mercy.

Certainly getting sued over every little thing would be impracticable, too. But that’s also true for citizens. If the laws that protect us aren’t good enough, then the solution is better laws, not to exempt some classes from the law!

Exactly. It's misleading marketing, if not straight out lying.
as a normal rule the illegal actions I associate with unions are stuff like leadership skimming from the pension funds which would probably get them arrested.

the negative actions I associate with police unions is stepping in to protect corrupt or violent cops from disciplinary actions / firing / arrest.
I can see that. You could have included a link to your product in this post and yet you missed.btw, i just checked out the product and i love it.
Yeah. My one and only concern is how tight regulation around genetic augmentation/editing will be. When will medical use cross over into cosmetic use and how do we regulate that?
I think frameworks like tailwind are great for rolling your own components actually. Tailwind sits somewhere between just writing your own styles from scratch and using a css component library like Bootstrap. It provides you with sensible atomics (e.g. a nicely defined range of margins/paddings that allow you to create UIs with consistent spacing), but it still allows you to mix and match where needed.

This approach allows tailwind to be terser than raw inline styles, while giving you the ability to write a lot of your styling inside the markup, which prevents context-switching. It's a nice balance between many of the approaches that have come before it.
Somebody's been browsing Wikipedia while watching Marco Polo.
If this "social definition" of race is accepted and somehow washed of its original meaning, why keep on using "racism" with the obviously disconnected meaning? How is racism defined in this brave new world of semantic chameleonism? As a synonym for xenophobia?
To be fair, deploying the CF release to your local machine with something like BOSH lite is not the most resource conservative. I think that you hit the nail on the head when you say it's intended for beefier machines or smaller cloud deployments. That being said CF release is huge. If you want to deploy your own software packages in a custom release against bosh lite for development purposes I think you might find that to be less temperamental.
Fellow Grand Rapidian here as well and business attorney. We also have low taxes. Pass-through taxation for flow-through entities (partnerships, LLCs, S Corporations), a low income tax for C Corporations (1.8% if you have revenue below $20 million), low personal income tax (4.25%, non-graduated), low property taxes (for a homestead, generally about 1.5% of market value annually), and a reasonable sales tax (6% with no local sales taxes allowed).

Also, it's easy as pie to form an LLC or corp -- it's a $50 fee and generally effective the same day you email the form and payment to the state. Annual renewal is $25.
I'm not sure that "positive" is the right word here. Biases seem to be frequently double-edged at a minimum.

The negative consequence is more obvious in your basketball example. Picking blacks for a basketball team simply because they are black is not positive. It is part of a system of thinking, which says that "blacks are good at these things". The corollary is that "blacks are not good at these other things". So, even what you might consider a "positive" bias has a reinforcing effect on the way we classify people and form other biases that are objectively and obviously negative in socially significant ways.

Likewise, classifying Asians as good mathemeticians is part of a system of thinking that says they are less good at other things. All of these preconceived notions have some value attached to them which, collectively, have a direct bearing on social status.

In short, biases tend to have a profound negative side even, or especially, when we are unaware of as much and/or believe they are OK.
Building systems, specifically software systems, is all about creating analogies. OO lends itself well to this reality.
> People who want to replace a little Prozac with Psilocybin can afford to wait 10-15 years for treatments to become standardized, legal and affordable.

Be very careful making that transition, you can get serotonin shock.
That would imply that cash is preferred, but, cash at a gas station - or any shop - is an attractor for robberies. At least with a skimmer the damage is purely financial, with robberies, especially in the US, there's a big risk of gun violence on top of that.

Can't rob someone that doesn't have cash, is all I'm saying.
I actually don't hate `file.existsAtCurrentInstant`. `file.exists` is so misused.

Maybe functions suitable for crypto use should be in their own "crypto primitives" package.
Wow that's awful. At least on Android I could create a new user profile with zero contacts, but not sure if there's a similar workaround on iPhone
The liners are apparently being hardened with steam or hot water. That still shouldn't cause backflow, "rising air" isn't worse than diffusion and the little bit of extra pressure from heat should head down-pipe before pushing through traps. But it does sound like a suspect for why this is showing up now in plumbing that hasn't had issues with other smells.
"The answer is somewhere in between" is a very boring answer but frequently the only correct one, "somewhere in between" doesn't need imply centrism after all. If the world is 1% meritocratic, that is greater than "Not meritocratic", if the world is 99% meritocratic, that is less than "Meritocratic". The only way to go about it is define what you think is Meritocratic, what isn't, and if column A is big enough compared to column B that you believe it qualifies as "Generally".

Then again this isn't really a deep thinking exercise, it's just an opinion poll.
yep, corresponding python slogan from PEP-20:

"There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it."

this was the compelling argument for python to those who were struggling with large and hard to maintain legacy perl codebases. python was supposed to be a constrained, simple language that encouraged readability- ideally a solution to the problems everyone was facing.

history really does appear to repeat it seems, even in computerdom where the timescales are shorter.
> They are terrible apps, but they are made in India terrible apps, and that apparently is enough to get a large following in India of late.

That's awesome!

Every app has to start somewhere. I mean, even ISRO started by transporting rocket parts on bikes, and now has a satellite around Mars.

> The taxes were already accounted for, my claim is on top of what you already contributed.

Not according to you, as you view taxes as inherently illegitimate. Though if you have a Patreon or GoFundMe to validate your claim then by all means.

> Its all very simple, if you don’t give them what they want, they threaten you at first and then they come take what they want.

If you don't wear clothes, you'd be arrested for public indecency.

> You get a lot for your trouble when you give up aggressive violence.

Tell it to the Iroquois, sadly.

> If your society is dependent on violence and coercion, then perhaps your society shouldn’t exist.

Then say you don't believe in society.

> You get a lot for your trouble when you give up aggressive violence.

Then why not give away property, as well? There are arguments to be made that private property violates the NAP.

> For my part, the only way to find an answer is to have the debate.

There really isn't an answer to be had in a debate, because fundamentally both sides are operating from stances so alien from one another to essentially be in different languages. "Taxation is theft" and "taxation is not theft" is not really meaningful in this context, as there is no agreed upon definition of what theft is. Despite its unanswerable nature, it is still quite enjoyable.
Sure, but having a conceptual framework of why people do things, with models on top [theoretical and empirical] is how mainstream economics works. Pointing out conceptual flaws in each others' models and how that leads to prediction error is how economists debate.

The Austrian School on the other hand, is centred on Mises, whose magnum opus insisted that all his conclusions were logically deduced from the premise "humans act with purpose" and therefore unfalsifiable, stated that "no measurement is possible" in the field of economic activity (!) and who later described econometrics as "childish play with figures". That's a very different position from the many other mainstream and non-mainstream economists who simply think other economists' models are insufficiently connected to reality .
That chart doesn’t strengthen your point. What (direct) action did those 1% take that generated 50T?
Whatever it is, they have been doing it for a long time: ladies in their 70s, in the street or at the supermarket, switch seamlessly to English when they realise I don't speak Dutch.
Badecon addresses this — in fact, it’s the top comment.
The opposite is also true: the interestingness and explosiveness of a novel idea is a function of its hereticity. We all create interesting business opportinities indirectly, by resisting to change.
I wish GitHub Desktop would let me spellcheck commit messages, like every other native text field, but nope, Electron.
The paper is based on 3-way merge of relations (sets) but I'm not sure it's uniquely defined. Imagine we have a data structure consisting of two sets A and B, with the invariant that B is a subset of A. Initially A = {1}, B = {}. Imagine this data structure is replicated across two computers. On the first computer, we add 1 to B; on the second computer, we remove 1 from A. Then we try to merge these changes. It seems that the merge result could be either A = {1}, B = {1} or A = {}, B = {} and I don't see how to choose between them.
Let's do the time warp again!
Lame. The party being criticized also controls the law that allows them to legally attack those who criticize them.

There are some things to like about Singapore, but many to worry about very seriously. There is no checks and balances there to combat government corruption, and these laws and policies that are generally against free speech and investigative journalism will have long-term devastating impacts (and already have had a nontrivial impact on the culture).
Sometimes you don't really have a choice if all your friends and family use Facebook...
I'm not trying to justify the existing copyright regime, which I also oppose; I'm saying that this is a factor you should include in your deliberations.

In either case I'm not weeping for Hollywood; it's not like they've never made anything but a staggering profit regardless of copyright era

Hollywood isn't a monolith. It's a disparate collection of people, many of whom slave away at their craft for years without ever making it big or seeing one of their projects pay off. You might as well say that you don't give a fig about net neutrality or some other topic at the intersection of computers and law because 'the tech industry has never made anything but a staggering profit'. Sure, if you cast your net broad enough, any long-established industry has been very successful, by definition.
This shouldn't be compared to a war, in terms of death count. We never want to take death lightly, but a large percentage of the deaths happening now are in people that are already very sick or old and likely to be severely affected by a number of health ailments and infections.
I played the flute for a few years as a kid, and breathing was a big deal during my lessons.
If you are sick, masks are an effective way of preventing others from catching it.

If you are healthy, masks do not prevent you from getting sick.

It's a fairly easy misunderstanding to make.
They effects are quite eye catching. Can you tell us how you built them?
I highly recommend this tutorial series. It is paid, but has great content and pacing and walks you through a lot of the stuff you need to be productive in Blender, but it's not free: https://polygonrunway.com/

Before that I went through https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmqEP2-UvAY which was also quite good.
I would say that if things are tested appropriately (it's a big if, and not an easy thing to do honestly), when you commit a new feature it should go through the testing process and right into production. If that makes you nervous then there's more testing that needs to be added. Canary deployments with extensive monitoring and automated rollbacks and make this almost entirely hands-off.

For most software systems the goal should be to abstract away the actual act of "deploying" and let the infrastructure handle that on its own.
Try Tridactyl. You can access any tab directly with `b`.
I think that what they mean is that they plan on for example using inotify to watch for changes and to show git status automatically.

Personally I have my own set of commands that I wrote which call git and I have given them very short names, so the OP tool is not of use to me.

When I want git status, with my tools I type

Except for the fact that home prices in boring suburbs in Kansas City and Dallas have risen far more than the CPI indicates.
This is probably very true, an utopia.
>I'm not sure why this result is even notable.

because probably in due time when building a model of that size becomes slightly more affordable someone with the 'move fast and break things' mentality will peddle a bot like this to customers and we'll find ourselves in a situation where this actually happens to a real person.
Agree such a system would make it harder for people who cannot afford to save for a house to buy it.

I speculate that house prices has increased mainly due to credit expansion. If you limit credit expansion by using hard currency house prices would be more stable over time like hard assets.
It's a sad day when choosing to donate billions of dollars to charity makes you a target for critics.
Following your logic, all "masters" should code in assembler?
Same, and I gave up trying to get Node to work with SQL Server. Ended up at Heroku because of this.
Interestingly, the authors of the CCS paper are Yinqian Zhang and Michael K. Reiter. More recently, they've been publishing papers which deepen our understanding of the FLUSH+RELOAD side-channel as I described in my post (F+R was originally discovered by Yuval Yarom).
Have you already took part in one of virtual/online hackathons?
>(c) was relevant in 2006, when the novelty of OS X was that it was a UNIX that you could actually use as a daily driver. This is what initially got developers to move to Mac. But it's been fifteen years, and all jokes aside, the "year of the Linux desktop" for developers was probably around 2012. Linux may still have issues, but they're not worse than the hoops you have to jump through to make today's macOS behave.

I've used Linux for close to 20+ years, and Unices more, and never had to jump through any major hoops to make macOS behave.

What would those be (talking about something major, not "I can't get my favorite window manager to replace the macOS window management" -- the non-tinkering-friendliness is part of the allure to me and from what I read others too)?

On the other hand, Linux on the desktop never fails to dissapoint me in one way or another because of the need of tinkering, half-sketched apps for many things I want to do (especially anything multimedia and/or document related), driver issues to get things working (sound, compositor, 3D, bluetooth, sleep, etc), and so on. And judging from the everpresent "just use <name of another distro>" in the relevent forums, it's not something others don't have.

Thus I prefer to stick to Linux on the server and Docker, or for setups where I have investigated the hardware in advance, and only mean to use basic things (e.g. happy with just some terminals, emacs/vim, i3, and some mp3 playing).

>not because they actually ask new hires what they prefer.

Those that do found that hires generally prefer Macs. That's how they have ~ 50% of the dev surveys on Stack Overflow whereas they're just 10% of the general market...
The trolly network was extensive, however. The reason(s) for their demise are googlable.

I can understand not wanting more actors that can initiate MAD. I sure would feel safer if my country had nuclear weapons, but the risk of every sovereign being armed is too high.
I've had one job where they pulled that. One week a month I was "on call", which meant waking up at 3am most nights and working through to office hours babysitting/bullying the system. In theory we got time off to compensate, in practice if we arrived back in the office after about 9am we'd get funny looks and the boss would pop past to ask what the problem was. "I just worked 5 hours" did not matter, we got that one hour of extra time off and that was it.

There was no engineering effort to fix these problems, it was just accepted that "sometimes the overnight jobs don't work".

When I quit I made it clear that that was the reason. And even though I quit during the 90 day trial period I still gave them a week's notice. The boss was not happy, but was adamant that the system he had put in place was working well and did not need to be changed. He wanted me to be on call during my weeks notice period!

There's two fixes: technical, by stopping the callouts from being necessary; and stopping management from imposing the callouts. Or you can get paid enough to make you happy with the callouts. If you can't do one of those you really need to get out.
Afaik you gain access to ‘sd card‘ storage by running ‘termux-setup-storage’ once, regardless of the store used. See here: https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Termux-setup-storage

From there, it would depend on whether you have synchronization that actually monitors files on the ‘sd card’ storage.
Actually, the entire list of non-essential but beneficial nutrients in Kale are good for you, and not in Soylent. This is the case for many plant foods. Just check wikipedia.

However, we haven't identified most phytonutrients in plants that promote long life. We just know they're in there, and that eating plants is the ONLY thing you can do that reliably makes you live longer. So there is no chance Soylent can include these unidentified - but essential to a long life - compounds. Substituting meat for Soylent... ok. For plants... horrible way to shorten your life.
needs more ram and better cpu before that
Are the poor from the community currently working at, eating quality food from or benefitting from taxes collected from the "empty two-acre lot on which it was to be built"?

"This isn't the best way to help poor people" is a very different argument from "this will hurt poor people".
You aren't forced to go straight from fully generic types to specific types. That is the entire point of type class constraints which give you fine grained specification of behavior.
JavaScript off will also quite effectively prevent this exploit (and many others), even in IE.

(I've been slowly converting people to use JS whitelists, with mixed results. Several times I've accidentally linked someone to an infected site, which had no effect on my system.)
Why is it called the Principle of charity? From what I read, it means assuming the best possible interpretation of the argument. But is that "charity"? I would have called it something different.
