Right. I meant, from the OP's perspective, he did more for the airline than he really did for himself. Sure, he got some money. But he really helped the airline save money and continue to justify a (in my opinion) dishonest practice.

Maybe we need to start a Airline Passenger's Union, so that we have some collective bargaining power when an airline wants to bump passengers, and instead of them convincing individuals to accept less than they deserve, we convince the airlines to pay more than mandated.

> SWAT teams were initially designed to de-escalate already violent situations

No, SWAT teams were initially designed to end already violent situations (armed robberies, riots, hostage situations, …), however they were designed to be called in after threat assessment and tentative deescalation (by regular police units or negotiators)

> We've seriously lost our way with SWAT.

I couldn't agree more.

SWAT teams were never designed for "first response" but for "overwhelming response", they're police's special ops/SMU, but nowadays they're just a cowboy unit being sent on any trouble without any sort of situational awareness or threat assessment, better training of the SWAT units would be unlikely to help. Not to mention with the militarisation of US police (hands-me-down army and the like) having a "SWAT team" and using it for any and every thing has become a mark of rank/pride for every fucking podunk town sheriff or police office.

Back in 2014 there were ~80000 SWAT actions per year in the US, and only about 7% even remotely had anything to do with the original purpose of SWAT teams (hostage situations, barricades, significant armed robbery, …): https://www.aclu.org/blog/another-day-another-124-violent-sw...

A better alternative is actually making a web app, and ship the server together with the client, for example a Node.JS script that does the stuff not supported by the browser, and runs the default browser for the graphical user interface.
Since they are saying it is 'for Linux' rather than it is Linux, I suppose they are probably ok, although the system doesn't contain or even work with any parts of Linux itself in any way.

though police do not have video evidence of it

How hard is to have a rule stating "every SWAT deployment must include a video-record, and every member of a SWAT team must have an active body camera"?

There's far too much of "do not have video evidence", coupled with far too many incidents where the official record is disproved by third-party video evidence.
This seems like a gross misrepresentation of what the OP was referring to. What does this even have to do with the story at hand?

> Person doesn't care.

Nope. She didn't know there was a risk.

> Person is not an expert in the field but they educate people about it? Now they are a worse person quite frankly.

She was treated by experts who told her what the problem was. Contact lens producers are experts too, and this person is cooperating with them.

"Two posts later you claimed there was ill-informed outrage surrounding SJW labelling - so it didn't take much for you to take up the topic."

Again, I brought a simple postulated example about one blanket negativity applied to the SJW label wars. This is painfully obvious in everything I've said, linking the two concepts (outrage politics and the pro-/anti-SJW flamewars, as well as the myriad other negative outrage examples). If you see the SJW label wars as completely separated from outrage manipulation accusations on both sides, then I'd like to see your view on that. (or heck, any view since you've offered none, yet pry for something)

Something in there put a bug up your nose, and I've been constantly asking what that is. I said a number of things, many people said a number of things, yet you decided to pry with all your might into what I said specifically in some particular phrase there, unsatisfied with any angle of explanation I could muster. You're looking for something.

"What do you feel I should offer that I'm not offering which is relevant to the topic you're engaging me on?"

I would say I offered a simple statement, and you started grilling me on it. I want to know what is so critical to you that you are spending so much time on trying to extract some form of explanation from me. I'm literally just continuing on this for curiosity and entertainment purposes, but my statements are earnest.

" You've previously only said you'd like my observations of outrage online. Why?"

I already, multiple times, and very explicitly said because I can't believe that you have observations that don't include the ones I've had. I would like to hear yours for contrast of such a dramatically different experience than is common on the internet, and its propensity to spread and argue over hot topic discussion issues, of which outrage is so common, as is also offline with media.

Edit: "If you feel the need to say "ill-informed outrage" clearly you feel some outrage is not "ill-informed". Drawing the conclusion that you feel there are different types of outrage is logical."

It's simply an emphatic (along with "bandwagon"), as used in an obvious example to make it more forceful, and drawing negative stereotypes into the negation I was making. Informedness tends to bring level-headedness, so the opposite drives the analogy.
That was fun! I did spot one of the downsides of crowdsourced input: a dick doodle was one of the archetype images for "crab".
My view is that if the population is watching ads, and somehow that is enough to float a business, then the population is actually paying for the business already, but through an indirect middleman.

The population pays for it by buying more or paying more of some products -- in a time and manner that provides evidence to networks, content vendors, and advertisers of business justification.

If we drill down further into the population, I think we'll find that some population of people either view or don't view ads, but don't adequately change their purchasing behavior in a time and manner so as to provide signal.

In other words, some people are takers, and some people are contributors. The people who are takers -- that is, whether or not they look at ads, click through, or whatever, they don't sufficiently change their their market behavior in a time and manner that provides evidence for business justification -- possibly detract from all mentioned parties because they diminish the business justification of the whole affair.

In tension against the takers, the people who are contributors are paying more than what they need to for the service because they're subsidizing "news" for other people.

Note that I don't really consider revenue in situations where eventually advertising clients figure out that they lack the business justification to pursue some advertising venue, such as intermediate marketing metrics that payout to businesses, but then the lack of justification for an advertising decision is later discovered. People who are marked by intermediate marketing metrics but don't go on to yada yada market behavior, are still "takers" in my view.

With that said, I think the money is there, people are already paying for news, but maybe the people who are paying should have more say than those who don't pay. Otherwise, it's the advertisers who have say, and the advertisers sponsor some pathological news outlets.

So in my view, people who argue for advertising are arguing that only advertisers can do the financing of the news world, and that contributors should continue to float takers.

I hope this doesn't make me seem like a smart-alec but despite the author's complaints, the text on this web page didn't look like solid black to me, so I opened it in the web browser inspector window, and it says "color (0, 0, 0, 0.8)" which seems to mean that it is black but has opacity of 0.8, thus not solid black.

- Clink (which is for cmd.exe).

> Are you suggesting we're better off without competitors to the existing email desktop-clients?

This is a false dichotomy and you are aware of that fact. This polarization shouldn't exist in the first place. And it can be eliminated with a small time investment.

As developers of important apps, your contribution to the world influences culture. Other follow in your wake. Is that the influence to the world you really want to give to other programmers and business people? Time to market is not the only priority.

That you treat a non-flattering language as me being frustrated tells me you will not understand that side of the argument however. So let's agree to disagree and move on.
We can argue about whether "nightmare" is overstating the problem but let's be honest that it's easily more than just "a bit annoying". The installer took an hour on one system and the options in those 5-10 pages are far from user friendly. Sure it's stuff I can manage being a seasoned Linux sysadmin but frankly I've found installing ArchLinux (with it's deliberately anti-user approach) easier; never mind your more "mainstream" platforms like CentOS and Debian.

apt-cyg is pretty good though. However that didn't always work. But in fairness to apt-cyg this was about 18 months ago and I believe it was still marked as experimental at that time.

As for crashing, the issues I had last year were with the ssh-agent hanging. The only remedy was killing them from Windows then restarting Cygwin. Killing the process from within Cygwin (ie using `kill`) and then restarting the daemon weirdly left it hanging still. I've not used Cygwin since to see if that issue had been fixed.

Cygwin is one of those products that when it works, it works really well. But when it doesn't it can be hateful. Sadly I've run into a few edge cases that have left me with a sour taste after using it.

Hi Irenie, awesome you've dropped in here!

As a long-time contact lens wearer who has at time been lax with hygiene best-practice (often I drop a lens in the basin, pick it our and rinse off with saline solution), I was a little alarmed after reading what you've been through.

If your experience is in the field you want to go into, you should be able to work at those places without a degree in said field, but you may have to circumvent parts of the hiring process. Don't submit your resume to keyword-sifting online black holes. Network your way into an interview, even if you have to do it through recruiters (which should be your last resort).

If your experience is not in the field you want to be in, regardless of whether your degree is, get that experience first. That may mean a few more years paying dues at entry level again. Once you've established yourself as competent in that field, go after the big players.

Also, many places will accept a closely related degree as a substitute for a specific degree. For instance, a bachelors in electrical engineering will get your foot in the door for many programming jobs.

Yep - Vim, working on python code. It's pretty darn good. The terminal occasionally gets confused when you're popping in and out of an alternate-screen app (less or vim) and leaves the bottom line of the alt screen behind - but this can be fixed by hitting ctrl-L. Also the terminal occasionally seems to report the wrong size and vim pops up only using some of the available space - again, suspend vim, ctrl-L, unsuspend, done.
They're charging 32000 euros for those things, that's a lot of budget to work with.
I wouldn't take advice on decisions that are actually important from Steve Jobs, though.

When I say bash, I am referring to GNU bash, the shell that has existed for decades now on Linux, BSD, macOS, Solaris and an endless list of other operating systems.

I do not care if Microsoft couples their ABI and the shell and decides to call that "bash". GNU bash will continue to be what it has been for decades now.

I also do not care if a lot of people want to take the entire GNU/Linux userland and decide to call that "bash". That is not bash either, and will never be no matter how many people insist on it, not even Microsoft.

bash is GNU Bash, a project that you can learn from here: https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/

Finally, if Microsoft decided to couple bash with WSL, think that they went through the effort of replicating most Linux system calls. Having bash as a default shell is not a technical requirement on their part. Maybe now it will be, for backward compatibility reasons, but that's a different issue.

Then, you can downvote and insult all you want, that won't make you right.

Unfortunately, I found Windows command-line interop isn't as useful as I had hoped. You can start Windows executables, but you can't kill them: ctrl-c gets you your shell back, but the executable is still running in the background, headless. See: https://github.com/Microsoft/BashOnWindows/issues/1614

And since USB ports aren't mapped into WSL, I have to use a Windows program to talk to them.

Besides this hiccup, everything else seems to work great.

I have a personal newsletter where every week I post a mistake I've made programming or in my career, and what readers can learn from it. For me it's helped improve my programming, for readers it helps them avoid my mistakes: https://softwareclown.com
For any given state of matter and energy, there is a maximal number of possible states. Then, for any given computer existing in our universe there is a finite amount of accessible states, given that the expansion of the universe creates a horizon beyond which creates a limit to the volume we can read back data from.

Couple this with the fact that you can not create an algorithm that can arbitrarily compress any given input string, and then for any given computer you can find input strings that requires more state to represent than said computer can contain. Even if you allow for output over time, for any given such computer you can find an input string that is sufficiently incompressible that finding the shortest possible representation requires more intermediate state than the computer can contain, and that can be true even if a sufficiently large computer will make it possible to find patterns that makes the data very compressible.

In fact, that is what the article is pointing out: The universe may be a lot more regular than it appears, but it is possible that we may never be able to determine what the patterns are because it may be impossible to hold or compute over enough state to be able to determine what the patterns are in a way that lets us identify the patterns.

It is also possible that it turns out to be possible to easily create such a minimal program, but the article also points out that the vast majority of possible universes are incompressible.

For us to be able to compute the most compact description of our universe we 1) need to be in a compressible universe (or the description will subsume the totality of the universe itself), 2) need to be in one where the shortest possible description can be computed with the intermediate states possible to contain within the observable universe.

As the article points out, without additional knowledge of what type of universe we are in, the odds are firmly against us in that respect.

I'm unsure exactly what you mean. But you can absolutely run web servers in WSL and connect to them from any browser running on Windows.

Apparently ARM allows unaligned loads now (permitted in ARMv6, default in ARMv7). There seem to be some instructions that don't support it, like STM. Also, afaik code needs to be aligned properly, and function pointers need to be aligned properly lest you will switch between arm and thumb mode.
Apparently you can tell the ARM compiler to assume all memory accesses are unaligned.

Under ARMv8, I think alignment is less of an issue.
