Ahh, the public offer to help. Great PR move that ignores all Microsoft's other actions against Google throughout time.

Competition is fair game.
Consider:

- the existence of Bing

- Every version of IE and Windows starting from over a decade ago has made it more difficult to change the default search engine from Bing. Comically difficult, even

- Microsoft's creation/funding of entities like Fairsearch.org, whose primary reason for existence is to destroy Google

- Stealing Google's search results

- etc etc

Microsoft has tried to defeat Google from day one. Again, they competed and lost. If they had built up any good will maybe Google would have helped. But they didn't.
Nominet don't do any verification when these transfers are made.

Most registrars I've checked don't do any verification themselves either.

Here's an example of the race conditions many registrars fall to: http://blog.pricechild.co.uk/2016/06/uk-domain-transfers-are...

Nominet allow you to enable 2fa on your account but this means sweet fa. It doesn't stop transfers by other actors.
Agreed, there are some people who deserve the term idiot. At the same time you're probably an idiot if you call people idiots, even if they are. You're going to make your own life harder.

If A is discussing with B their plans for my murder, or creating fictional dossiers of alleged crimes of mine and sending them to police and my employer, or sharing compromising photos without my consent, then ignoring them does not work.

Less hyperbolically, it's only safe to ignore the speech of others against you so long as it has no chance of having an effect. Whether that's through legislation or street violence.

Toxicity is exactly the right word for hate speech, because it can cause hate to spread out in ways that cause real injury or death.
Wind also gets some of its energy from Earth rotation.
It is never hard blocked on arithmetic though (in the UK at least). A bunch of simple numerical solving will be harder without being able to do multiplication in your head - but certainly someone could get through without.

I'm honestly dubious of anyone who claims that the reason people hate maths is because of times tables.
There is no opposition here. You can, unless I'm missing something, run a unikernel within a SGX enclave. They are complementary.

Since a unikernel provides a self-contained system it could provide very clear and reasonably secure interfaces to the enclave.
I'd like to be able to tell my browser what it should tell the pages it's loading, especially if pages are leveraging it to do things against my will.

That applies to blocking Google ads, as well as fixing Youtube malfeatures.

Of course, it's understandable you won't see this from a browser paid for by Google. But you can't paint in broad brush strokes like "I don't think hiding side-effects or user actions helps anyone."
I think that you're being kind. Unfortunately these types are more the rule than the exception, and are most certainly not restricted to PHP. The dotnet world is full of failed developers who manage to talk themselves up.

For all the good that Uncle Bob and the like do they have become enablers for these snake oil architects.

Having dozens of classes making up some big dependency class is probably not going to slow you down as much as you expect.

Querying for data will be the bottle neck. Until you move to some in memory solution trying to reduce the number of classes called to increase speed will have little effect because that will be cached anyways.
No. In theory you could backport it to older phones, and OEMs allegedly might, but I wouldn't expect that to be the norm and it's not mandatory from Google in order to get Oreo.

I re-watched American History X last night and I greatly recommend it to anyone who wants a little (dramatic) insight into modern American white supremacy motivations. In particular, the main character, Derek, gives a speech to a group of skinheads which is disturbingly similar to some of Trump's campaign speeches (though more eloquent).

Small bug on your site : the "years of experience" field doesn't work on non-US keyboard layouts that don't have numbers on the top keyboard row. It's a quite common (and annoying) issue on US sites for us europeans.
Companies make sense for competitive markets. They're a poor model for winner-takes-all natural monopolies, which is why we prefer nationalisation for e.g. public utilities. A lot of the internet behaves that way too, as we're slowly realising.
I've been using make files constantly since '76 when I first started programming in (US) 5th grade. It has been one of my career amusements watching the build systems come and go. I gave up talking about Make years ago. There is a huge population of us that smile and get things done, while others screw around with new, complicated, never-learned-the-past tools.

I use one of the earliest Make versions that barely does anything beyond recognize rules, rule actions, and simplistic macros. I've seen this version of Make used to build a feature animated film. Witnessing the versatility of that feature film's multitude of software and renders and composites all built through Make taught me Make is the only tool needed for any building of anything.

I remember when MS introduced a Make with extensions, and many developers ran over and fucked up their build environments, starting them on the path to the complex manual required build mess most people have today.

I write my Make films by hand, still. It is that easy. And you really should have a build environment that is that easy. When you need it easy, as in some major deadline and crap is broken, you will thank yourself.
It is almost as if I asked what it was about...

Free speech came _long_ after personal thought and individuality, so while free speech helps (and is a good idea in general), it's probably not necessary.
They did (I don't think it was ever gone as such, they just messed up the gesture, but it's back).

While I agree with you in principle. I think the original poster's intent was keeping a work life balance.
Work will consume you. Corporations will consume your life. You may be perfectly happy living in your work, but if you have loved ones they will suffer.

Experience has taught me don't get caught up and lose that balance. Its a long journey to recovery after you have suffered both emotionally and physically.
Konqueror is still around (it's where the chrome rendering engine originally came from), and IMO still the best.

Although I suspect the main complaint (slow, due to checking directories where nothing has changed) has mostly been swept under the rug by increased CPU speeds some of the other items (managing dependencies, ordering, ...) are still worth considering today.
Try progressive enhancement, or at least graceful degradation. Displaying a freakin' search field shouldn't be that hard.

And finally, why not load the necessary polyfills and fixes on demand? When the old/slow browsers need time to get ready, a few hundred milliseconds more or less don't matter.
I took two courses in ODE. I got an A in the first semester. I still have no idea what they are or what's going on. It's all just relationships and patterns to me--but with no intuition or understanding behind them. It never "sunk" in like Calculus did where "Area under the curve" and "tangent line" are super obvious in retrospect and immediately applicable to your daily life. "What's velocity? The change in distance over a unit of time." Done. Presto.

Your comment is precisely the paradox, though. "You can absolutely tolerant them until they get the majority of votes." First of all, it's not every society where a "majority of votes" grants political power. In Greece, the White Supremacist group (Golden Dawn) holds parliament seats even though they are a small (but vocal and politically active) minority. White supremacists now influence policy in Greece despite being a minority.

In the Middle East, this kind of outsize influence might be even worse. I am no expert on Middle East politics, but I think it's fair to say that the most intolerant factions have striven to gain the most political power, in spite of the political leanings of the mass populations over which they rule.

One issue with intolerant groups is that they tend toward violence and oppression of opposing speech. The tolerant and pacifist among us can allow them to gain enough minority power to effect a political coup, which can result in a societal coup, since having political control can grant you some degree of societal control.

In such a society, espousing tolerance might carry with it the risk of violent retribution (since tolerance is viewed by the "in" group as heresy/dissent). This will cause the intolerance to spread, even if seemingly against the will of more tolerant citizens. In this way, certain ideologies can have a "toxic" societal effect. You don't need to look far in modern history to find examples. And, that's the paradox.

I'm so freaking tired of seeing articles about exciting agricultural tech, just to click on them and find a whole bunch of lettuce. (and tomatoes)

I mean, really, try measuring it yourself. They're virtually always all about lettuce.

Lettuce doesn't feed the world, staple foods do. Virtually nobody eats a whole head of green leaf lettuce a day, but even if they did, it'd be 50 calories. That's less calories than in a lollipop.

Lettuce is 95% water. It means if you want to eat say 10% of your daily energy intake in lettuce, you need to eat 250 calories of lettuce, that means 5 heads of lettuce and basically a soda can full of water.

That's not food, the way we normally talk about food. It's water, with a bunch of fibers and a tiny amount of minerals and nutrients.

Which is also the reason it's so easy to grow. You can grow a head of lettuce indoors under artificial lighting in a shitty growth medium in 3 weeks flat from start to finish, because you're basically mixing a tiny amount of energy with a bunch of water.

And that's precisely why all these new companies demo it. Look at us, we can grow a gazillion pretty green nature looking things you put in salads, the pinnacle of healthy foods, in no time, using much less water, factory-style. It's a joke.

Same with tomatoes. Five regular tomatoes is about another 55 calories, just like an entire head of lettuce, or a lollipop. And who eats five whole tomatoes on a daily basis?

And don't get me wrong, I've eaten about 1/3rd of a head of lettuce and two tomatoes pretty much every day of my life for more than 20 years. I like eating them and will continue to do so. Oh and I'm Dutch, too.

But I also get tired of 'revolutionary' food tech pretending as their new ways of cultivating it changes agriculture. It doesn't. It's just a fancy story for a fancy urban farm that sells overpriced produce to a fancy 'local' salad bar that has zero impact on our environment. I want to see revolutions in the production of staple foods, too, as well as a cultural change in the way we shape our diets and the food we choose to consume.

So no, the Dutch don't feed the world because we've got a bunch of high-yield lettuce/tomato installations.

Nonetheless a lot of interesting points in the article, but I just wish it was a lot less about lettuce and tomatoes. It's really becoming a bit of a parody, anyone else feel the same? You could literally do an Onion piece on an article featuring a 26 year old design student who runs a hydroponics lettuce factory in an old city office.

maybe projects should have their own ./bin folder for make to use and have those command refer to the right native command.

mixing make with a modern scripting language would make this possible.
In my case illumos provided two things:

- zones allowed for a much higher deployment density and better utilisation of our hardware than other virtualization technology would have.

- zfs snapshots. We've integrated those into our product and when a customer messes up they now have button to instantly restore to a known good state.

Doing both of these things would have been a lot harder on another os.

It's a lesson one learned fairly quickly in the late 1980's and early-to-mid 1990's on the Commodore Amiga. Since then, I've always chosen my hardware for my software, because software is infinitely more important than the hardware: even the most powerful hardware is utterly useless without the software to enable one to get work done.

Always choose your hardware for your software, never the other way around.
I wrote this a few years ago in response to a similar piece:

The problem is that the rich have the ability to take their income in alot of different ways.

Tax income more, they'll take it as dividends.

Tax dividends more, they'll take it as capital gains.

Tax capital gains, they won't realize their capital gains until they can offset them with realized losses or they'll just get bank loans again't their stock holdings.

Tax assets on death and they'll pass them o n in trusts.
Some will move money off shore if they think they can get better returns that way.

The problem is that no tax code can close all loop holes because you just can't foresee the creative ways people will out maneuver the tax code.

Who would have thought 25 years ago that companies would buy other companies in different countries, not to acquire their products or markets, but to acquire their headquarters address to lower the tax paid in the US.

I don't think anything has changed.
If you wanted to evaluate it, surely you'd use a virtual machine?

Heinlein's quote I think is not to be taken too literally. It's the notion that human beings can do so many things and there's a lot of synergy in knowing that many things.
