I would like to add that customizing/extending Eclipse has become a nightmare. Two of my plugins stopped working in 4.x. Took forever to get a simple Nature and Builder working again under 4.x.

Eclipse's uses XML to declare UI, behavior, expressions. Completely baffling. Terrible docs. Extremely difficult to debug. I was reduced to trial and error (after copying working examples I found).

I've used Eclipse since the early alphas. Its muscle memory.

Scouting the plugin dev stuff of IntelliJ, it doesn't appear to suck so mightily. I've forced myself to start using IntelliJ.

I miss LISP so much I could cry. Even so, I remain wary of metaprogramming. And I very much want to do plugin dev, vs modifying the runtime, for the separation of concerns. I've had to customize all-in-one runtimes and borking the whole runtime with a bad override is not fun to debug.

I've not done emacs plugins, so can't comment or compare.
Pakistan is much farther away than you think it is. http://www.gcmap.com/mapui?P=AMS-KHI,+JFK-LAX
Alexey, I thought you made that point very clearly in your post. It's in important message, and a huge loss when he intentionally chooses language or brings in other topics that cause it to be unnecessarily marginalized.
I invariably find myself doing this in C projects because not doing it is a serious violation of DRY--writing possibly hundreds of lines of free (foo->bar); free (foo->baz); free (foo->quux->fnord); ... ; free (foo) is not only hugely error prone, but a waste of everyone's time.
> Now, that Vote count is not visible, There is only one signal left.
> 1. Positioning in the thread.

I'm not sure if positioning in the thread is much of a signal. Comments with a low vote replying to a comment with a high vote will get displayed above comments with a medium vote, and will more likely be read. Before, the reader could choose to ignore such comments, and keep on scrolling down to check for other comments with a high enough vote.
I'm not sure I care about comment scores, but I am concerned by how much other people seem to. Relying on scores to choose which comments to read is like getting all your news from the most watched cable news channel. I might prefer that the comments be sorted chronologically.
My "not sure" was meant literally, for what it's worth. Though I think saying startups -> money -> Russian tax policy is a bit of a stretch.
I think in the private sector the you find the 80/20 rule (20% of the people do 80% of the work) while in my experience, in government it's more like 95/5 (5% of the people do 95% of the actual work). It can be excruciatingly frustrating, but you are right, the types of problems and the datasets are not ones you'll find in your average fortune-500 corporate entity.
It's an absolute liability/immunity statute. Intent is not part of the elements of the offense.
I think this kind of circular EV economy is the real big money logistics idea. There is, as you've astutely pointed out, no reason why this protocol shouldn't exist industry-wide.

But, how do you solve the materials problem that closes the loop: somehow recycling old EV raw materials into new EV materials? AFAIK there still aren't great SOTA solutions to this. At some point, it's hard to have a nice closed cycle of production and waste-recyling for ecological and cost optimization purposes.
Those are the people who vote.

it is..actually.

we can create an exact replica of the flash site both in design and functionality. ( but this would be a custom project with a greater price tag )

but we realized giving them 95% their flash site is good enough for them to start out. Then as they grow, they can easily build on the framework themselves or have us do it.
Like many inventions, it wasnt so much originality, as combining the right pieces in an elegant and useful way.

The WWW he invented was HTTP+HTML+URL. Three things that may have already existed on their own in some sense. He took giant ideas, off others shoulders, and melded them.

I wonder, does his web contract apply to apps that use HTTP+URL but not HTML? Does he intend the word web to be inclusive of not website tech, or does he not care about the rest of the internet thats not "web."

You should know from your own background that AT&T doesn't quite have a history of excellence in the Internet realm.
That's starting to sound awfully close to what a social network would do, mister. ʘ‿ʘ
God, for a Wikipedia page to dance around the identity of an author (Paul Dochney), for what amounts to essentially a well-received daily comic strip in a newspaper, really says a lot about what's wrong with the world as we know it.

It's just too much to plainly state:

@dril is Paul Dochney

Once you have a book to sell, and have been interviewed by Vice, it shouldn't be a big deal to say that. At the very least, it's also reasonable to give the author his own wikipedia page, and cross-link to the persona's wiki.
My favourite take on this is Peter Thiel's discussion of monopolies and restaurants.
Not true at all.

A more accurate statement would be "caste is slightly less of a problem these days in Indian cities among 1) the more liberal educated classes 2) very low and poor folks living in chawls"

For the vast middle class folks and rigid rich folks, it is just as painful
Uber should focus on running Electric Cars
Interesting. Fussell, in his Class, also calls out the US middle class as a kind of outlier from the rest of the class system, cursed with an abundance of class anxiety but also a distinctive class identity and slew of misconceptions about the higher classes that often leave them looking silly in their attempts to imitate the higher classes (which they're very interested in doing thanks to the aforementioned intense class anxiety), including on matters of what proper or polite behavior & activity looks like.
They have something similar in Iran - for all the wrong reasons. Although even there, they don't dare sever themselves from the 21st century economy entirely, and that has left enough gaps for circumvention software.

Turning the internet off is something that can't be used for good. It's a tool of repression and anyone who supports it sees themselves as likely to benefit by repression.
Why don't you post your application/resume to get feedback from the community, and make lemonade out of lemons?

One of Colin Powell's leadership slide points. http://www.blaisdell.com/powell/
“Two ends of a cable without a cable”, the iTwin device gives LAN-type connection between 2 computers without the use of cables. This means that you can access your desktop with your laptop from anywhere in the world, or vice versa. This also means that 2 people can share information (unlimited access) on their PCs despite the distance between them, without installation.
To add to this line of thought, charging per video made would be the way to go. You could limit the free version not only with the downloading and branding options, but also with the length the of the video (eg. max length of free video 30 seconds).
Don't need maths for no PHP stuff innit.
It's surreal how quickly "we don't have an obligation to protect the rights of non-citizens" gets twisted into "we're allowed to abuse the rights of non-citizens".
Short summary: Fitting teams to a stack ranked performance quota system causes perverse incentives for management to hold on to poor performers, team members to sabotage each other, and high performers to avoid working on the same team.

> That we predicted a metallic state of hydrogen

You're missing the point. The idea that the predictions are the same as knowledge illustrates the misunderstanding. We do not know because we cannot prove it. I shouldn't need to get into the reason we produce experimental evidence eg https://www.forbes.com/sites/startswithabang/2019/07/06/ask-... - via the LIGO and Virgo detectors
You just described every open plan office ever. At least this way nobody can look over your shoulder at your screen. And you can turn your camera off if you want a break.
Am I the only one surprised it was still required? I'd gathered that many high- and top-tiered US uni's had swapped to "accepted, not required" over a decade ago. Perhaps the momentum here swung back in light of conversations around the way this applies towards different races/ethnicities?
And the users of those clients will say “Signal is always breaking” and switch to another platform.
Not really since it generated the requirement that is the topic of the article in the first place.

For example, if it wasn't a black box it could be re-configured with alternative firmware negating this requirement.

Not that I'm interested in such a thing, but I can see how it would have value to a non-trivial group of users.
USA is a beacon of freedom, Liberty and Equality
Or even check out a test prep book from the library.
You don't even need a timer interrupt, if userspace is well-behaved. Especially if user input is interrupt-based (think ^C to cancel; triggers context switch -> signal, can also have a kernel fallback for buggy userspace that tries to ignore the signal and refuses to yield).
That's a fair counterargument, but I don't think it holds up. I'm talking about a portfolio rather than a single asset. Technically we would want to model that using a log-normal distribution, but I think the example suffices. Can you think of a realistic example where someone would accidentally hold a dynamic portfolio that exhibits outperforming returns over 20 years?
There's a big difference between "opportunity cost" and "risk". Wave had huge potential upside and I completely agree that it's a good example of Google looking to go big; but they approached it in a risk-averse way, and it didn't work out.
I really don't think these are anti-emulation measures. The Classic NES Series games weren't ports of NES games, they were NES emulators packaged up with the NES ROMs running on the GBA. The "measures" detailed on that article sound more like either bugs in the GBA emulator, or tricks that Nintendo used to squeeze the most speed out of their own NES emulator.
A Gigabit Ethernet PHY has to do quite some signal processing (line equalization) for its normal function. And there are a few chipsets that allow you to inspect the link parameters in quite some detail. For example, have a look here for screenshots of the broadcom advanced control suite.

https://cs.uwaterloo.ca/~brecht/servers/docs/PowerEdge-2600/...

The link has to run in 1000BaseT-Mode to make the tools show any meaningful output, so have a known-good switch connected to the "other" side. I had used them in a distant past (must have been 10 years ago or so) to find the "best" links in an otherwise messed up building installation that could be reliabily be used for higher transmission speeds.

It's of course much less information that what you'd get from a proper ethernet cable analyzer, but much, much more than what a simple "yes, I can ping the other side" can give you.
Fully agree. This is a well known issue that users of native interop from managed languages commonly encounter when they first start out. One of the first bugs I found in .NET related to this; the Ping component didn't expect that Finalize could be called on the same instance before a method on that instance finished executing.

What is less convenient is that Java doesn't have a handy method to ensure that an object is reachable, that the JVM won't optimize away or eliminate. .NET has GC.KeepAlive; AFAIK, Java doesn't have an equivalent. I asked a question about this on SO[1] some time ago. An approximate equivalent can be cobbled together, with probabilistic assignments to a volatile variable.

Probably because Github is hosting code they don't like (e.g. code used to bypass censorship).
> Their job is to keep an eye on more institutional power

Buddy, the NYT is institutional power. The government listens to them, not the other way around. (Occasionally, NYT does USG a solid, like convincing the public to invade Iraq.)

Oh, and the NYT listens to Harvard, Yale, and other high-status academic sources (and especially, NGOs). You might even call them their mouthpiece.

It's been this way since at least WW2 when FDR disempowered the executive branch in favor of the permanent administrative state. We've been living in that reality ever since…

Liberating women from what exactly?

It all seems ridiculous myth making, considering what indians have shared here on HN about how much asymmetrical power indian women have available through the court system in India, and the sort of abuses they inflict regularly, the misuse of the assymetry for material gain etc.

But yeah I get it. It's the new Democracy + Capitalism freedom making program they NEED to go through for their own good.
Sure - but maybe you have ill intent towards others (filing dubious claims, an affair without spousal approval, etc.) and this is to see it happen. It is no different than police doing a stakeout - it is just a private citizen than a public defender.
I usually have my phone at 0% brightness, but that I can still see something is a clear indication it's not actually 0%. The screen is still too bright for me if it's the only light source. Same for audio; I basically only switch between mute and minimum volume because everything above is too loud for me.

I hate that there's no way to acess more fine-grained levels below the arbitrarily imposed minimum. I realize most people would think their phone is broken if they could get it into a state where it doesn't produce any perceivable output despite not being explicitly off. I just wish there were some secret handshake I could use to confirm that I'm okay with having to find the brightness control while not being able to see anything; I already do that when I'm outside in the bright sun.
Point taken, we only have a raw windows prototype so far.
The struggle over vocabulary is evident. The truth is it could be called all or none of these things. There was a professor on NPR who also said how each term (terrorism, insurrection, coup) has legal connotations. But I call BS on all of it. Getting people to not say coup is already evidence of damage control against the factual, universal, objective, scientific "coup-ness" nature of it all. Semmantics is always arguable, but I am not lying, I have no agenda, and I am not gaming anything with how I express the situation. Like with most "normal" people with no power or say in the situation.

But of course, whether anything crosses legal lines in accordance to legal vocabulary is all these bent politicians are concerned about, because that's the only thing that would stop them by landing them in jail. That's why most of them are lawyers. The non-lawyers have a hard time surviving. We'll see what happens with Trump.

Both points apply to both sides.
I don’t think so. It doesn’t use the double ratchet algorithm used in DMs but still the participants of the group formulate a secret key for the group and share this key with every participant using the more secure protocol. The key cannot be read by the server as it is shared using conventional E2EE.

Isn't this a problem between naming for the purposes of project management (where a unique, even silly name may be a plus) and project maintenance (where, like you say, it's opaque and confusing)? I tend to err on the side of maintenance, since you only launch it once, but you have to live with it for a lot longer, but I can understand the impulse to label the project itself - it just needs to go away or be in some other channel from the get-go.
I'll look for the article to link here (which I probably initially read on HN) but it was a blog post that described a developer's experience slogging through Nintendo docs and working with Nintendo and it being very slow and difficult. He went on to describe that he had none of these problems when dealing with Microsoft (and to a lesser extent Sony).

Likely because the number of 3.5" drives shipped was on the order of 100-1000 times greater than 5.25" drives. There are still obscure devices shipping which use 3.5" drives.
> The issue here is that even the civil filings were not taken by the court,

Yes, they were taken by the court. That the actual specific filings were, generally, found to be legally deficient when taken by the court is different than them not being taken.

> they were dismissed due to technicalities

“You haven’t stated an claim that, if taken as true, would involve a violation of the law” is not a technicality.

“You have not stated a claim to which, if taken as true, there would be a remedy under the law that a court could give” is not a technicality.

“You have not stated a claim in which, if taken as true, you are the legally harmed party, and thus entitled to seek a remedy” is not a technicality.

These are all fundamental, (and, at least in the federal courts, Constitutional), limits on the applicability of the judicial power.

“You have deliberately and unreasonably delayed this claim from when, if it is taken as true, you knew about it and could have acted on it, such that, even were it valid, it would no longer have a remedy that would not unduly impact the legal rights of others,” is not a technicality, its a rule of justice.
I'll second this. It's also a great start to the day.

> Those families pay no tuition, but still may pay living expenses. The 'pay nothing' tier starts at $65,000

That doesn't actually make anything better. You're attempting to address the perverse incentive for one of the parents in the family making $225,000 to quit their job by pointing to a higher burden on the families making between $65,000 and $125,000, implying that it's less desirable to become one of those families. But the incentive is still there whether it preposterously exceeds 100% or only approaches it, and reducing it by making the burden on even less affluent middle class families worse can't possibly be the right solution.
Not a bad idea actually.

The flip side to that question is "Who is the owner of that computer?"

If you own the computer, naturally you should have root acccess. If somebody else owns the computer, then that's their prerogative as to whether or not you get root access.

There are hundreds of reasons for you not to get root access ranging from industrial espionage, to reading porn at work, or to stop you from installing malware.

Build a better relationship with your IT department (or whomever that matters) so you can get more leeway and/or that root access you want.

It's not necessarily just ugly but plain idiomatic C. It's just C: a function pointer + userdata pointer.

All hooks, callbacks, etc. use this approach because that's what a closure is on a low enough level. And in C it looks like void()(void userdata).
