If you believe him and Russia. Weird that Russia and Hong Kong would let him board the Moscow flight with a revoked passport (and an extradition request), but not the Havana flight. You can't rule out that the stuck-at-the-airport routine was just plausible deniability that Russia wasn't actively recruiting American intelligence assets.

But, sure, if you believe him, he was trying to defect to some other country instead.

No, they're saying that the people actually having to defend the position, the people with actual skin in the game, (Apple legal) believes this.

Unfortunately, Ubuntu doesn't support a HiDPI and a non-HiDPI display side-by-side. You can choose which one looks fine, but one will be close to unusable (either much too large UI elements or much too small ones).

After several days of Ubuntu (and Fedora), I just gave up and installed Windows which works perfectly.
How about paying a one-time fee with a little extra to be regarded as the legal owner of a set of mirrored HDDs installed at a facility that provides predominantly cloud-based infrastructure?

In other words there should be crystal clear regulations that says what Monopolies(and even normal companies) can and cannot do. The problem is having those regulations in most countries can become a bureaucratic nightmare.
Ridiculous. Local communities should invest in community-owned (public) and/or small locally-owned commercial wireless infrastructure. Verizon, Comcast, AT&T and the rest have stolen our infrastructure and banked the tax credits every time they get the chance. They laugh all the way to the bank and nothing is ever done about it.

People should install lots of Wifi access points and link them up, rather than courting more cellular tower sites.

That article gives you the impression the journalists/civilians were killed in the chaos.

The Collateral Murder video shows you what actually happened, and the clear intent and callous laughter from those total shitheels in the gunship.

It was a war crime and the public deserved to see the video.

There's two issues with that, first the statsd event approach has scaling problems as relative to an instrumentation event a UDP packet is actually quite heavyweight (https://www.robustperception.io/which-kind-of-push-events-or...) and secondly how do you know that all devices that are meant to be sending are sending (https://www.robustperception.io/push-needs-service-discovery...).
I'm working on a product like this at the moment to solve exactly those problems. On Twitter @h_carver if you want to chat more! Or if you want to wait 6 months and find out why I shouldn't have been pursuing it ;)
Google has put substantial effort into making the workplace "better" for women (at least in comparison with other companies) and somehow it is still not enough. I can't help but wonder if "enough" even exists - if a company makes an effort to hire the female workforce, promote women programmers and gets rid of anyone who can make women feel uncomfortable then what else still needs to be done? The lawsuit is not even about getting less money for the same amount of work, it's about statistics and averages!
All the users that have contributed freely, but it's not free.

I contributed and in the return I get free access to the product or advantage. I don't pay. My data worth nothing.

People who think that by paying google to get the pub get a return of money is them who is wrong. Google uses schema but all the people who pay for advertising are those who pay for the service. Not me, not people who participate for free. It is like a concert if people participate voluntarily and the concert is free it is free, even if he knows your name, your schedules. This is unnecessary data.

It's free = you are the product is with Facebook not Google.
Why is that relevant when the violence was initiated by the company?
A port IS just a service facade/interface. An adaptor IS just a specific implementation of a service.

Think of P&A as terminology to help you disambiguate these use cases from the extremely overloaded words. If your team know these terms, it makes a lot of discussions a lot clearer.

The hexagon thing is a bit of a red herring IMO. I think of it as dependency inversion at the module level, rather than the class level.

Reflection is hard to support with ahead of time compilation, yet java code often makes heavily use of it for (de-)serialization.

You should instead look out for the 1024 core epiphany. It's a streaming processor so it may not perform as well on random memory access and there is no cache hierarchy but it's very close to your previous comment about "Something on the order of 256 or more 1 GHz MIPS, ARM, or even early PowerPC processors."
Do you think it's a bottleneck for them to not understand JS? What they design and produce using JS (mockups and prototypes for testing) won't be passed on to production anyway. Or do you have a different experience?
Yes, but the author preaching to the choir. The real problem here is educating the public at large as to why it's insecure and in what situations biometrics are unacceptable.
Right. Most cloud systems we have are user heavy, there's not much kernel, usually <3%. They cited a Google paper with 15-20% kernel, which is a lot. Although I've heard from other sources that Google is kernel heavy, so this further confirms that. Different workloads.

It'd be interesting if someone like sysdig would share (if they could) the usr/sys breakdown for their entire customer base (I seem to recall they were sharing other such statistics).

It's a bit hard to see how much an exokernel or unikernel would help given, say, a workload that was 5% kernel. You might say it would only improve performance by less than 5%. But that's just considering the cycles saved. Such kernels should also be smaller, and consume the CPU hardware caches less, leaving more room for the application to execute on those precious resources. That would improve the performance gain further than just the reduction in cycles alone.
Why would suing Facebook be good for anybody? Even if you're a VC backed startup and Facebook steals your patent it still would be a bad idea to sue Facebook. During this whole thing I've been agog because I can't figure out what the problem is. Patent lawsuits are bad!

I'm sure that if the model would be updated with the current crash of the price, it would predict significantly less than $6000.

I think it's just impossible to do predictions on such timeframe. It's easier to estimate the order of magnitude on 5 year timeframe (current adoption growth is about 10x / 3 years, but it's still hard to measure)

I agree completely. Also, we shouldn't let up on our "questioning" simply because someone from our club is president.
For me, I started out with BASIC and a library book and a supportive dad, then HTML and Javascript, most likely based on random online guides (this was late 90's), online communities (likely newsgroups and IRC, and I spent a lot of time on Slashdot), then PHP, based on the same. Along the way I taught myself Linux, too.

Why? It was what was there and what was accessible. There wasn't a particular plan or direction, just the excitement of getting the computer to do what I wanted it to do.
It's the Tivoization clause of course. Darwin is the basis for not only macOS but also iOS, and Apple doesn't want to provide support for replacing the software on iOS devices.
Care to elaborate please?

I mean specifics, for example most people agree that waterboarding, torture, etc. are "evil," but what about things like PsyOps? I want to know what actions the commenter thinks are evil versus what actions are legitimate.

How to do interactive code lectures with Scrimba
No, this is wrong. You do not (and cannot, since it’s BSD) have your license to use React revoked. You do have your additional patent grant revoked - that is, if you sue Facebook for patent infringement, you will lose the right that they previously granted to use any and all patents covering React.

If we assume that any patents covering React also cover the alternatives such as Preact, the nothing is gained by avoiding React.

You can't argue that the current C++ syntax is verbose and cumbersome.

99% of the time, I work on the full container, why not providing an overload which let me write at least

bool batch_failed = std::any_of(jobs,
[](const auto & job) { return job.failed();}
);

Then, lambas are verbose.
I would like to have a simpler syntax like for simple lambas (no capture, single expression in the lamba body). job could be automatically typed with const auto&, or you could write it yourself if you wish.

job => return job.failed();

And a the current one, which is more verbose, for more complex lambas (capture, several expressions in the body)

By the way, the order of appearance of colour names in language might be more or less fixed across languages:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linguistic_relativity_and_the_...

It's a quite interesting. Though it means that while the article says "blue -- one of the four traditional colors originally established in the Japanese language along with red, black and white" (blue being equivalent to green here), yellow probably existed already as well then.

Today in Western languages the same thing happens with blue and cyan. Italians will think of cyan (azure) as a colour while the French see it as a shade of blue, for example.
> Do you still consider it an "absurd generalization"?

Yes, I do. I concede that you have demonstrated that economic benefits from slave labour continued to accrue to the UK economy until the 19th century.
However, it is simply not true to flatly claim, as did the OP, that "Most rich countries are rich because they build their wealth on free labor (slavery)".

Literally a year passed since lt came out and it has such unacceptable issue for a newbie-friendly distro. Hopefully fedora just works.

Ignorance at it's finest. Unlike the US the Indian telecom sector has cut throat competition, which is why data and call rates are at global lows. Even so they don't have the resources to connect all of India. The math doesn't add up. Facebook Basics would have provided said resources.

A robotic bunch of Indians influenced by the Net Neutrality hoopla developed and targeted at Monopoly Telecom in the US blindly applied these arguments to the Indian context.

The result - rural India is and will remain unconnected. Telcos have no great new ideas on how to connect rural india (and therefore no great avenues to grow) so they are starting to merge. Soon we will have 1-2 giant Telcos monopolies. The clueless herd driven by social media reinforcement and validation strikes again.

I agree that the last 10 meters is going to be one of the harder things to solve, but i think you'll see people building calibrated parking spots into their driveways (some way of teaching the car how to get there from the road) and perhaps even companies doing the same with their parking lots and then publishing the details online. As self driving cars become more ubiquitous there will be companies that spring up to precision map places and feed that data into whatever databases the cars use.
In case anyone’s genuinely curious about fingerprint removal, rather boringly the best solution in practice is just to wear gloves. The alternatives are mostly temporary and much more painful than you’d expect, such as branding, abrasion, or chemotherapy drugs such as capecitabine.

Answer: "abc" is const char*, which can be converted to bool and is picked because the way variant is designed.

When this started rolling out it caused havoc for us. Without any warning that this was happening half of the people in our org got their display_name set to their full name, and the other half got their handle. For no apparent reason.

Within the technology parts of our org everyone knows each other by handle, and we still let people pick their own handle when they join. It's even pretty common to only know people by handle and not their real/full name. Monday morning and all of a sudden you can't ping a colleague anymore by @username, you have no idea why and now you need to know or find out what their first name is. Eventually that got fixed for everyone but it made Monday worse than usual.

I'm also not sure how this is going to interact with Enterprise Grid though. Since display names aren't unique you can get two people in a channel with the same display name. So if you now ping @John The Ripper, does it bug both, does it not go anywhere?

Which is one of the reasons I hope WebAssembly becomes the de-facto standard for binary code distribution: It preserves more structure of the original program and allows less of the lowest level shenanigans (it provides a clear and protected control flow, has a small instruction set, no dynamic code generation, and no instruction misalignment / dual-alignment).
