That's a fair point about the opportunity to build some performance-tuning muscle but I imagine to do that would require solid knowledge of both React and Android. Where do I start? I am more inclined to go towards the native Android side first.

Aa a follow up, I just did a test with a native Android app doing the same thing: getting an image through an Intent. With the native Android app, the same image that was crashing the React Native app doesn't cause any problems.
Not to say this is definitely what happened, but he could have looked you up on FB which might tip off the suggestions algorithm.

I find it so unlikely that my Facebook data will ever constitute such a problem and even if it happens, well so be it. I have much more realistic and current problems to worry about. I just can't be bothered, even if I hear what you say.
>> "It used to be that the law couldn't catch up with the fast change in technology, now it's us the people that can't keep up."

And I think that, in turn, is holding the law back further. If people don't understand why something is a problem, they don't care and nobody is going to waste time evolving the law to protect them from harms they don't even know are occurring.
This was in relation to a small chalking incident that would have had no reason to attract attention outside of our school except that the r/The_Donald mods stickied it to the top of their subreddit. I skimmed through a few of the brigaders' histories to see where they were coming from and saw mostly r/The_Donald posts. Some had posted in the stickied thread before hopping over to our subreddit. Some had previously specified that they went to other universities, so had even less reason to be visiting the subreddit for ours. It's not as if we'd hit r/all or anything.
So when are we going to ever get a replacement for for this deeply flawed technology called HTML?

https://github.com/blog/2104-working-with-submodules is a decent overview of what was available a couple years ago (things have improved a bit since then too), though it needs a tl;dr. So here's an attempt.

1) When you cd into a submodule, it's the same as if it you just cloned into there, all normal git commands work. need to update your submodule-lib? cd, do stuff, git push, at worst.

2) `git clone --recursive` instead of just `git clone`, no need to `git submodule init --update` / etc.

3) `git pull` will automatically pull submodules when the parent repo changes which commit it's using. `git push` should push any changes too, though the manpage isn't explicit (there's an identical flag/config value for push as for pull to control this). also solvable with `pushall` and `pullall` aliases, which is a very minor re-education.

4) submodules can track submodule-repo branches, not just commits. auto-updating ftw? if you want it.

5) there are some somewhat-unhappy defaults / you probably want `git diff --submodule=log` and `git config --global status.submoduleSummary true`, etc. these (and aliases) are easily fixed the same way as you probably already have for templated .gitignore / etc - just generate some company-wide defaults, and move on with your life.

---

A lot of the "you have to git submodule command everything all the time" is a thing of the past, the difficulty now is largely related to it being a minor conceptual difference from a monorepo. It's a repo in a repo, and you're manipulating the pointer to the version. There are more options because of this, but they exist for good reasons, and they're not too hard to wrap your head around.

https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Submodules also has some nice examples, and e.g. `git submodule foreach` can simplify a lot if you actually dive into submodules and make changes across multiple simultaneously (big refactor maybe?).

Even when I paint the worst possible scenario in my mind (I get killed because of my Facebook data) it's still not something I can be bothered about. I could just as well be hit by a car tomorrow but I don't worry about that.

Agreed with the brigades. I've been watching Rust videos on building bases and evidently some of the more popular streamers get hammered by take down requests all the time from the Zerg clans. Zerg is evidently a term used by players to refer to the "group think mentality" players. Learn something new every day!
There is that, but also there's been increasing pressure to pump out more faster due to more competition, and people paying less/nothing. I think quality-per-article has probably gone way down in the last decade, but we do have a ton more articles.
Its scary because its intrusive. I didn't post the picture so that I would get better ads - rather, to inform my friends that we were having a jam session. But now, we're all going to be bombarded with ads for instruments we don't need to buy (because we already have them).

The most uncomfortable angle is just how quickly Facebook tuned into what we were doing and then changed its ad-delivery algorithm to match. I have one friend who had his picture taken in front of a headshop - he now gets regular ads for bongs and smoke accessories, even though he's not a user. So, that's also quite discomfiting ..
The thing about tmux bindings is that, as far as I know, very few people like the defaults.

I've taken the approach of 'learn the defaults' for vim, but on tmux that simply won't stand because the defaults have so much room for improvement.

Pretty much everything I've read on tmux suggests the - and | bindings for window splits, same goes for hjkl bindings for movement. Adding these bindings would go a long way towards standardizing tmux.
You sound very smart. I think you are a power user, and a smart person.
On Android I use Youtube Downloader, which has the necessary Intents stuff to let you just open an YT link with it. Shame it went closed source, though.

Is there some terminal app that lets you create new Intents to run commands? Should be simple to tie the action "Open link to youtube.com/" to running "youtube-dl $link".

The USA could mess up how it treats the Internet a few hundred times and not get to how the UK is. The UK censors a huge number of websites on the basis of content.

It's apparently what the British want, so that's what they're going to get, but the idea that US censorship will lead to British prosperity is ludicrous.
That's true. An alternative could simply be hosting on multiple platforms - at least that way you'll have a backup plan if a service deletes your content.

Not sure about a 30 year timeframe. 10 years seems like it wouldn't be any kind of problem (personal opinion), but 30 years is an awful long time.

That being said, the SQLite development Community are very very big on backwards compatibility. eg:

https://youtu.be/ZvmMzI0X7fE?t=19m56s

Hmmmm, there's a better talk by D. Richard Hipp around, but I'm not finding it atm. In the better talk he explains they (SQLite) are planning to be around for the 30 year timeframe you mention. Something to do with an airplane manufacturer looking for long term guarantees, but I don't remember the details.
Facial recognition software can only recognize you if your face is already in the database and identified as you. It's not going to magically know your identity otherwise, no matter how sophisticated it is.

On the other hand, I guess it could do some inference, such as: person X seen at location Y is also seen going in to residence Z every evening and coming out of the same residence every morning for the last 6 months, therefore there's a high probability that this person's address is residence Z, and since John Doe is the only person registered as living in that residence, person X is probably John Doe, etc.

Those aren't the same drink. Beer can be downed rapidly after finishing a laborious task. IPAs and other "beer inspired" substances are what you slowly sip when you have a lot of time on your hands.
Sqlite should be around for a while, and since the source is around it should be possible to compile it in the future. I don't know how stable the file formats are, or if you'd have to do regular migrations.

Text-based formats in my opinion still are a better bet for really long-term storage, since I think they are easier to recover from partially-broken states. (E.g. if you give me an sqlite file with a few bytes broken, I don't know how how to recover that. In a text-based format I can fix it by hand if necessary, or modify my tools do deal with it). More complex formats can be derived from them and used as caches: e.g. for a large text-file archive, you might want to have a full-text index in some database format for faster querying. As long as that index is fully generated from the base dataset, its stability is not as important.
I can't imagine that you won't be able to run some sort of old linux emulator with sqlite in 30 years. A simpler format is better, but SQLite is good too.

Even better if you keep SQL dumps with your backups every few months. Those are going to be readable much more easily.
Men exhibit more variance in traits that are expressed on the X-chromosome, as they only have one of them.

I am not on Facebook.

But that doesn't mean that I believe I am not on Facebook.

I am pretty sure that Facebook are able to construct most of the shell of me from fragments provided by less careful friends or just strangers.

I imagine, and do not believe I am wrong, that Facebook have a ghost profile already with photographs of me already associated, some preferences and interests already in place.

> Right, but usually the licensing around libraries/templates is quite clear?

I think it would have been clear if UE had used legitimate licensed version of the software. In that case I'd imagine they would have gotten license to the auxiliary content too. But if they were using unlicensed pirate version of the software then they would not have had proper license to the content and so the output files would have been infringing too.
Interesting. Despite the many approaches to writing HTML more are invented all the time. Currently I'm working on yet another way. My idea follows the Lisp tradition based on its hierarchical list structures. It's surprisingly easy to parse and generate HTML from basically simple lists.

'(html
(head
head stuff ...)
(body
(h1 "My HTML")
(div (@ class "main-div" ...)
"main div stuff")))

Of course it gets a lot more complicated when generating complete web pages and apps, but using paste operators, procedures and variables can make it produce anything necessary.

A very similar approach is possible with Tcl, which I am using now for several reasons including integration with legacy code. In Tcl the above looks like:

{html
{head
head stuff ...}
{body
{h1 {! My HTML}}
{div {@ class "main-div" ...}
{! main div stuff}}}

In Tcl variables and procedures can be interpolated into the output by wrapping the list in a "subst" command:

[subst {html .... [my-proc $my_var] ....}]

The hierarchical nature of Lisp-like languages naturally resembles the GUI outline form the author presents in the article. Using Tcl it's occurred to me that it should be possible to write a "front end" to the parser/generator code using Tk (via the text or canvas widgets) which could resemble the author's illustrations.

Ultimately I think the difficulty lies in the need for constructing customized templates to enable modular, easy-to-use GUIs for particular tasks. Real HTML can quickly become very complex which is the reason for the thousands of frameworks, generators and templating systems in existence. While I think the author's approach or my own can potentially be helpful, neither is going to magically eliminate the burden on the programmer.

Irrelevant for what? It's opening and closing an unfathomable number of sockets in a short time span, so it would be limited to how many the kernel can handle. Maybe subject to limitations in the glibc epoll() wrapper as well. So it's not irrelevant if you want to benchmark some change in the kernel for example. (There is a http parser in there as well, but I don't think even replacing it with a dummy one would quadruple total throughput even. Which is why I'm skeptical. The Python thing didn't claim performance above nginx.)
In theory, for "unbiased path tracers", the results of all three should be the same, at infinite samples. Rendering for a finite amount of time, lower noise suggests the renderer is more efficient.

In practice, every renderer has different features and settings, so the actual scenes will only be approximately the same.
If we're asking "should a user be able to continue using files created with a program beyond the point that they are paying from that program?" we're not that far from the practical effects of such a decision already.

I'd wager that a good 90% of the world's graphical/artistic material is locked up in Adobe-proprietary formats for which the only practical editing software has moved to a cloud licensing model. Dispute with Adobe? Say goodbye to all your company's assets...
I don't think most of the people talking about basic income are the proponents. I'm a strong believer in that you should be paid the market rate for your work, so if you want to make good money, you must make smart choices about your education and career. That makes the whole system more efficient. I do however think that basic income is inevitable, because of the automation on the scale we've never seen before. Inevitable, because the other option is to let the unemployed starve. So not really an option.

Welcome to the internet.
It looks like Facebook asks for Location: Always on iOS. (I've got mine set to Never.) I wonder if they feed this back to the servers.

I presume you didn't post anything about the "event" to facebook (I've seen "Person is going to attend Blah" posts before) or "check in".

I didn't miss it, I deplore it. True "defense in depth" puts all civil rights aside. "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." -- Benjamin Franklin.

Citizens fight back. The outcome that tyrants dearly wish for is a population that simply doesn't care, or that can be frightened into submission. It's my hope that we're not that population.

Even token resistance is better than none at all.

I understand the responses to this, but my take is we're so far past the Rubicon we might as well be in the Atlantic.

For example, I have a friend who has never been on any social media. If he wanted to opt out of the surveillance apparatus, he still would have to address: collection of phone metadata, browsing history, traffic cams, other CCTV, financial paper trail, probably more I'm missing.
> This will backfire on the people rejoicing, however. Instead of advertisements on sites, we will see entire advertisements disguised as actual content (which can't be blocked).

If everyone allowed normal ads through, advertisers wouldn't sit back and say "Well done everyone. Time for us to stop doing sponsored stories! Back to the old model!". They'd still be attacking on two fronts. Ad-blocking just prevents one avenue of attack.

> Online advertisements are one of the only ways a person without a big company can actually make a living.

So? We let people who have shitty business models fail all the time. Why don't they take one of the other methods for making a living?
I think SQLite stands a better chance of still being readable in 30 years than many possible storage mechanisms, but I'd hedge my bets if I were you: Export the SQL routinely, like pryelluw suggests, and make regular backups.

Other than that, it's hard to beat simple text formats for sheer longevity and future-proofness. You might well consider printouts of some core stuff if your goal is for the info to survive multiple decades. Whatever you do, document your own process while you're at it, so future you can figure out how to reassemble things if a software dependency shifts out from under you.

If it's a "few thousand dollar gap", but you're much more interested in the role, that seems like the best choice? Better to be happy in a role than get paid a few hundred more a month and be less happy.

I've found that companies that have an established vacation policy (vs. "unlimited") won't change that as part of negotiation (this is in the U.S., though).

Even if they won't put in writing that they'll give you $X bump in 6 months, you could ask for a salary review in 6 months. That's no commitment on their part for an amount, but it does mean that something will happen in 6 months -- and if they don't give you a bump, well, you can evaluate whether you're happy enough that it doesn't matter, or you can look to move elsewhere.

Your real problem isn't the data format, it's the host machine - you need to be sure that the computer where your files live is still around/working in 30 years. Either make frequent backups to multiple machines, or choose a cloud provider that will be around for a while, e.g. AWS or similar (and even then, still do frequent backups to other machines).

The data format you choose should depend on the relationships present in the data. If there are relational connections between data points (e.g. data1 HAS A data2, data3 HAS MANY data4s), then SQLite is a fine choice. If all you want to do is keep the data around, there is nothing wrong with text files - perhaps the directory structure could represent the organizational structure you require.

Most of the US banking sector is owned by a small number of companies[1]. Now I don't live in the USA so I can't speak for the USA in particular.

However, I have lived in Australia, where the banking competition is so bad that the consumer protection agency is having to explain in baby words to the national banks why they can't gang up on apple pay[2].

I have also lived in Iceland, a nation in which essentially all industries exist in tiny vertical monopolies, and the banks are no exception. It's hard to link citations here because fólk lesa ekki Íslensku[6][7], but go ask an Icelander if they think the national banks are in vigorous competition, they'll laugh in your face. Landsbankinn was genuinely shocked and puzzled when I moved all my accounts to Arion because they wouldn't give me a visa electron card so I could buy things off the internet.

That having been said, some quick[3] googling[4] suggests[5] that the USA isn't in great shape when it comes to competition either. In general, consumer competition is poor among banks, and they like it that way.
