This draft document[1] suggests that Fedora will use the "rebuild all packages" option for packaging Go programs, since it's unlikely to support dynamic linking in the traditional fashion any time soon.

The buyer still has exactly what they paid for, and nothing less.

No, he has now a less credible work attributed to Doig. Credibility is worth money.

I can't go out and buy stock and sue the company if it doesn't give me a 250,000:1 return on investment.

You can if the stock was already worth 250000:1 and then the CEO made allegedly false claims that crashed the price.
The person who bought the painting is not losing millions of dollars, only failing to gain them.

VS Code now with Tabs
They apparently already receive 1/3rd of that each year, though, so my guess is it'd just be more of the same, as it were, though at a greater pace.
Depends on the model, seems the common 'fix' is to find and remove the cellular radio module or a fuse - but who knows how long (or even on what models) this will continue to be possible, after all, it defeats the purpose of this 'feature' if it can be easily disabled.

This expands beyond GM as well, Toyota has "Safety Connect" now (though it's thankfully a purchasable option last I checked, I don't have a Toyota vehicle new enough to have it) and even if your car doesn't have a similar feature most newer vehicles have telematics devices connected directly to the CANBUS - which, due to any lack of authentication can be used to do anything to your car if there is either a security vulnerability or a adversary capable of compelling the manufacturer to use it against you.

Modern vehicles really are scary things to be in if you are worried about potential state-level adversaries as part of your threat model, vehicle manufacturers are already horrible at writing software for ECU's and attaching cellular modems directly to a network without any kind of authentication or authorization should scare the shit out of anyone.

This is such an incredibly obvious invention, an order manager that does execution in the future across exchanges. So what? Its definitely not novel, and firms have absolutely implemented it. Anyone who has done electronic trading has come across this concept.
Unfortunately also the case for me. Whenever I use somebody else's computer or setup a new one, it's search for something then 'what the heck, what is this?" switch back to google, and think "I wonder if this will alienate some FF users" (since the default search results are less useful). So possibly long term loss by FF...

Why Safari is the new IE:

- No WebRTC (http://iswebrtcreadyyet.com)

- No Service Worker (https://jakearchibald.github.io/isserviceworkerready)

- No WebM/VP8 support

- No ASM.js

- No MediaRecorder

Combined with the following policy decisions from Apple:

- Almost complete lack of engagement with the community

- Default browser on iOS

- No alternative rendering engines supported on iOS. (This is even worse than IE, as users could always install third-party browsers on Windows)

- Safari updates tied to OS updates, which mean users of old iPhones are stuck on old Safari versions because they don't get OS updates anymore

Tabs, huzzah!

Interesting side note to this: I was alerted to this release when I got an e-mail from the UserVoice site saying my upvote for the Tabs feature was released because the feature was now done. I have to say, the widespread adoption of UserVoice has been one of my favorite things about the so-called "New Microsoft". I've had multiple UserVoice suggestions on different products actually implemented; it seems to be the first bug/feature suggestion box from a megacorp where there's a sense that people are actually paying attention. Please tell any teams at Microsoft not yet using UserVoice to do it!
you may want to have a look at sphincs. its security is based on hash-functions, therefore unlike most other postquantum schemes it can be considered very reliable (good hash functions are a solved problem these days). Downside: signatures are big (~40k). For TLS this is unworkable, for a PGP-like system this is doable.

If Fletcher had better evidence, this would be a fascinating court case. But as it stands, the fact that they've located the family of the real Peter Doige (talk about burying the lede) makes it laughably open and shut.

>Mr. Doig and his lawyers say they have identified the real artist, a man named Peter Edward Doige. He died in 2012, but his sister said he had attended Lakehead University, served time in Thunder Bay and painted.

>“I believe that Mr. Fletcher is mistaken and that he actually met my brother, Peter, who I believe did this painting,” the sister, Marilyn Doige Bovard, said in a court declaration. She said the work’s desert scene appeared to show the area in Arizona where her mother moved after a divorce and where her brother spent some time. She recognized, she said, the saguaro cactus in the painting.

>The prison’s former art teacher recognized a photograph of Ms. Bovard’s brother as a man who had been in his class and said he had watched him paint the painting, according to the teacher’s affidavit."

How Wall Street Bro Talk Keeps Women Down
I couldn't get the damn modal to go away so I gave up. Too bad, seemed like a reasonable site.
Interesting project -- I built a very similar thing maybe 5 years ago with validation. There was a similar _fields structure, but it was a dict of field name and type which could also a be a callable to validate and coerce to the proper type, but by default, we just made sure a given field had the proper type -- we could also inject a default here as well.

This enforced a schema in the collection which I've found is usually very desirable. I used collection son manipulators and a _type field in the document to do mapping to and from the db. I think there was eventually a SubDocument type for embedded documents, but there was intentionally no dereferencing or lazy loading of embedded ids -- that's a slippery slope to building an ORM and fighting all the battles therein. The object mapping was a very nice feature though and I think that code is still in use today.

So +1 on keep it simple and -0 on not doing validation by default.
Doig was a nobody at age 16, else the painting wouldn't have sold for $100. The buyer bought a nice-looking painting from some kid in a correctional facility, not a world-famous painter. There was no promise or expectation that it would significantly increase in value.
Delft Hyperloop Project
Not much of a choice for Go, but Rust does give the option for dynamic linking so I suspect the Fedora project will take advantage of it. There is no tooling in Koji to support mass rebuilds when dependencies are updated like this, which is why in rawhide when you are about to make an soname bump you are supposed to notify anyone who depends on the package of the change so they can bump the release of their packages afterwards.

I can't say anything about the build tooling other releases use (I only have real experience with Koji and a limited look at OpenSUSE's OBS), but I don't think (m)any support "rebuild all that depends on this package" without manual intervention. It's really a crappy situation to be put in by language designers who value their use case over all else, and while, again, I think static linking can have a place it really doesn't belong in distribution repositories if it can be helped.
Also, the ID card for Mr Doige posted in the article is a few years off Mr Doig's birthdate on wikipedia...

Thanks for clarifying.

Which "something better"? Does "something better" still contain all the salient characteristics of what we call capitalism such that we keep the advantages? We're pretty sure that many things are entangled here; it's not clear that we have the means to disentangle them

I'll put up with a lot to see freedom from food insecurity, basic clean water and good abatement of public disease vectors. If we break the system in certain ways, we may lose the ability to do even that. Don't say this doesn't happen; look at some of the South American countries.

I try to sidestep all the ideology by thinking that the things we don't like about the Rubric Currently Known as Capitalism probably involve the use of economic rents to enrich certain people and not enrich other people.

If that tool works ( and I can't defend it beyond a rudimentary level, frankly ) then the things you're talking about that you don't like aren't actually part of capitalism.

And i think we're really talking about "why is growth slow?" Well, good question but my biases lead me to think that this is a lot demographic and the rest is bad monetary policy grounded in a basic lack of understanding of things like the proper role of central banks and public debt.

I don't know that if we had 4% {rN}GDP growth we'd even be talking about this.

In that case, "replacing" capitalism might just make it worse.

I don't know...what's going to keep them on?

Solving interesting problems? Having a meaningful impact on business decisions? Getting paid well? Being treated and respected by their employers? Learning new things?

Frankly, there's not a lot encouraging people to stay.
On one hand, I agree. For example, by late 2003 I was already working with PHP codebases that had adopted a roughly MVC paradigm -- routes mapped to controller objects and methods, active-record like database abstractions, and templates separated from anything but display logic -- and had an interesting optimization and caching setup. This all seemed broadly known as a good way to do things by 2005-ish.

But on the other hand: I'm not convinced this is the beginning and end of architecture considerations. We've still only been writing web apps for a bit over two decades, it's possible we still have some things to learn about how to organize them and get them to perform well. In particular, problems of scale circa 2005 aren't really the same as current problems of scale. There are just More Users on the web doing more things and we're tracking more data. We have different tools for managing all this. We're still figuring out if we like those tools.

And on top of that, we seem to be in the middle of an SPA/browser-as-VM kick that I suspect is going to look at least a little overdone and ill-considered in another five years or so.
They ended up rewriting it in Pylons soon after the acquisition. So yeah, it's technically true that he wrote the framework that scaled it to acquisition, but were he not there, they probably would've just written it in Pylons to begin with - it was available around that time, and was fairly popular among YC startups of that vintage (DropBox also started out with Pylons).
Similar sentiments here. I get slightly further with ggplot2 but still end up fixing stuff manually in Illustrator which adds significant time. Anyone know 1) a more customizable plotting library or 2) a way to apply manual changes to new input pdfs? Biggest sticking points for me are overlapping labels and compositing multiple figures
I'll reframe what I said a little.

I want to buy the least expensive (per unit) CR123A batteries from a brand/seller that meets my own standard of trust.

Search for CR123A batteries ... 14,000 results, 27 departments, about 100 sub-departments. On the first page 2 of the 17 results include per-unit pricing. There's no way to sort by unit price. Package size varies from 1 to 12, there's no way to sort or select by package size. Cost ranges from $1.44/unit to $5.02/unit

---

CR123A batteries are expensive enough to care how much they cost. They can also burn your house down if the proper protection circuits aren't in place (cheap Chinese manufacturers don't always include it)

They are also very frequently overpriced. A healthy market where you could do easy price comparisons would be good for the consumer but it doesn't exist.

To find the least expensive, I'd have to manually sift through 14000 entries and divide the price by the number of batteries manually. It's a big frustration, and I've legitimately tried and given up on buying them on amazon because of the bad experience.
> Economically, there's little difference.

There's a difference economically, because the derivative of marginal utility with respect to income is (generally) negative. In other words, utility is concave with respect to the origin[0].

This makes a difference because, in many circumstances, people are more willing to insure against loss than they are to insure against gain.

It also makes difference legally, as well as financially, because assets can be used to collateralize loans, etc.

[0](That's the first derivative of marginal utility, which is the second derivative of the income-utility function).

I think, the author meant that (most) web developers consider themselves privileged, in thinking that all developers should be using MacBook Pros and Chrome, and that there’s no need to test in anything else, when sharing demos and tools between themselves.

Using the term macOS is fine. It’s the new name, and we can start using it before the official release of the next version in the fall. I think you are being pedantic here.
Exist a resource like this for .NET?
To reiterate: I think work, depending on the kind of work you are doing, is covered by scrum/GTD:

Break down projects into buckets of tasks and make sure that each task item has sharp edges, then regularly review and put enough effort into it that you can start trusting yourself or your team to do this diligently. So that you can focus on the inevitable portions of your work that doesn't fit neatly into boxes.

But I am not entirely sure if that's really what you're asking ? Are you referring to the organization of reference information ?

To be honest, I haven't studied the visa types that deep (i.e., I probably know everything there is to know about the US ones, almost nothing about the Australian ones). I'm an EU (Latvian) citizen looking to get away from the clusterfuck that is post-brexit London to somewhere I haven't been an annoying number of times before.

Australia is on the shortlist of places I'm considering, so I'm not sure about the "see your future" part. It does generally sound nice and aligned with my views of the world, and it's definitely not a 1 year thing, so that sounds plausible.

From what I could find just now, a 457 does sound like the easiest path legally.

That sort of answers my question as well then I suppose, since the laws are stricter than what I found at first and contracting right away is a legal minefield.

Generally if you look at the Feynman diagram for an interaction, you'll have some number of external legs which one thinks of as physical particles, as well as a number of interactions. The lines between the interactions may be particles whose mass exceeds the total amount of energy of the incoming particles, so they obviously can't be real. They are thus generally called virtual (or off-shell particles). How one can think of this is what I tried to address in the original response.

Maybe they even put "security through obscurity" in the endpoints.

Certainly, their comment makes it seem like they assume their own client code is needed and they don't want to provide and document a stable API for third parties.

> but be sure to add an air bubbler so there's enough oxygen for the fish

Not a serious aquarist here, but I did a lot of research before getting my little 10 gallon tank at home set up and everything I've read says the oxygen introduced by air bubbles in the water doesn't really dilute in the water well (most of it just comes up the bubble and out into the open air). In theory, as long as there is a big enough hole for a modest amount of air to be exchanged with the surrounding environment you shouldn't need any extra equipment, as the surface of the water should continue to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide just fine as long as there is enough oxygen present.

The value at purchase time is irrelevant to this case, the same way the purchase price of stock is irrelevant to its current value when sold.
