You talk as if I am forgetting the positive contributions of U.S. interventions, but I clearly specified that sometimes the U.S. contributed to democracy, sometimes not. My point was the U.S. did not do this out of pure goodwill, but to preserve their political alliances and world leader position.

It is fair to discuss if the global economic growth is slowing or not. I still think that is the case, excluding China, India and Africa. And that the GDP growth is not a good number for this, as it can be artificially inflated by government policies, without increasing the median income/buying power of the population.
This kind of stuff is such a distraction from the business and the goal of Tesla the company. Don’t believe me, in the last few years how many disastrous incidents have we seen derail companies and their founders? Companies shouldn’t need to hire full time employees that manage sensitivity training and certainly the ”tech” news that profits off the constant outrage is just fueling it all further. I fully expect this not to be a popular opinion, but everyday is some new incident or outrage. Get back to work!

The Making of an American Nazi
How many new businesses are built around Java or C#?
Bro managed to remove Gawker from the internet. It's already a better place.

Strange how people are demanding Twitter, Facebook, YouTube et al "clean up their content" but when someone does it with a lawsuit, all a sudden these toxin spewing organizations are supposed to be the "underdogs"?

What's that? Oh, the world's smallest tear.
Might make you suited to security consulting?
Go into security and turn that free bugreport into big budget bug bounties ;)

If you can find bugs in libraries used in IOS/Android or something, that's worth money and gives you the chance to increase security for millions (billions?) of people.
You are welcome to try and make that argument. But in the context of computer programming, I don't think that idea is very coherent.
I disagree with your notion that some hypothetical person with health issues donating $100,000 to the Obama campaign is anywhere in the same moral and ethical situation being discussed here.

In fact it sounds like quite an empty equivalency.
I disagree. I am not an expert of java language subtleties, but I had no problem to predict and explain this output. I think it is a product of the language simplicity. I have a deeper knowledge of C and more experience, but I regularly fail to predict output in similar exercises.
Yes, just like putting 'President nukes turkey' would be silly thing to put in a newspaper if the president warmed up some turkey in a microwave.
I thought military coups were a good thing. That's what Hollywood celebrities like Chelsea Handler and Sarah Silverman told us this year.
> I prefer the companies tell it how it is, and not to censor information.

At the risk of being equally pedantic...

Does that really matter? And is there a company on Earth that will tell you everything with radical honesty? Is there any value in that?

Does Tesla tell you how bad their batteries, plastics, or leathers are for the environment? No. They focus on the positive aspects of the product and the company. We prioritize and value what we need to know versus what we might like to know versus all of the other noise.

And there is a lot of noise. Far too much noise for almost any of it to be useful. In fact, this is a tactic that large law firms use against small ones -- they DoS attack the small firms with too much paperwork during discovery in hopes that the small firm can't use it effectively and exhaust client expenses just trying to read through the material.

I imagine it would just make it easier to build lawsuits against the radically honest companies and the only ones that survived would be the ones with the weasel words or diplomatic silence. Almost like a darwinism where the fitness function isn't relevant to any of the current economics that we observe or product features we care about.

I find similar arguments against "political correctness" similarly tiring and fruitless.
Really interested to read more about this. This is really the most critical point of the succession question: Who can get the military to follow him. Both the highest general and the government leader have strong claims for military leadership and there is no pure logical answer if highest general and government leader don't agree. All depends on what happens between the different parties.
Debugging of Mixed Signal SoC in an effective and efficient way to save billions
A rant tangential to original submission but, articles like you linked always push me to the edge. A supposedly tech journalist throwing around redundant requests.

> a) Facebook Pro doesn’t track me;

> b) Facebook Pro stores zero data about me; and

> c) Facebook Pro uses encryption in every possible way.

b makes a redundant, and c is already there. Also the personalization is the product itself, so storing "zero data" also breaks the product.

Want to see an unpersonalized timeline looks like? Go check twitter. From the beginning, the timeline view (or whatever it is called) was unusable and most of all: irrelevant.

People want to be on the Facebook because everybody is there, but for some reason people also want to get rid of core feature how it keeps all its users on board and active. Just don't use it if you are that bothered. (I don't)
We've had good results using docker-compose to run ES test suites. Run the app in one container and an ES instance in another.

Test data can be loaded from fixtures or captured/snapshotted using `docker commit` to create specific test images.
>> I'm just saying, Thiel giving a small (for him) donation to some random AG doesn't necessarily mean he's particularly interested in that race.

I agree, especially since he gave the same amount to every State AG in the country. He did, right?
is this a measure to avoid patent conflicts? (or is there an appreciable difference in inner workings)
That was my interpretation too, until the end of the article when they said the military men who seized national TV actually spoke harshly of the general close to number 2.

Those were the same military men who said that the military had custody of Mugabe, so it's somewhat confusing.
Something being widespread in a community doesn't mean that it's tolerated by everyone in that community. Milk is common in central Europe, but some people are intolerant to lactose. Tomatoes and red wine are also common, but some people can't have them due to histamine intolerance.

(I also have a central European colleague who has actual celiac disease. That said, I agree that the general gluten panic is way overblown.)
Even if it where open source, it just as well be abandoned if the company tanks (Like Rubedo CMS).

There's an open source headless CMS here: https://getdirectus.com/

It doesn't have all of the batteries of Sanity and uses normal SQL for data backend, but it's a good way there.
I thought the party parrot was pretty funny at first but it and it's 10,000 variants we have on HipChat have gotten old pretty quick.
I don't think the parent was commenting about the existence of racial slanders, just the use of placeholders like "the n----- word".
I think that the issue is around creating and distributing source maps correctly and also about maintaining the correct configurations to match updates in the source language.

I've worked on many projects for large companies and I have to agree with the previous commenter that it feels like source maps often don't work correctly.

You can blame the bundling tools, you can blame the deployment process, you can blame the developers... But ultimately, source maps are not so straight forward and they slow things down because they add a lot of unnecessary complexity to the project.

I don't think I've ever worked on a CoffeeScript or TypeScript project without encountering at least a few major recurring issues with the source maps. When you have many developers working on the same code, things will break in unexpected ways and so you want to minimize system complexity.
This is due to 'least-necessary-energy-required' principle that all living organisms employ in one way or another. Hard lessons from long evolution I presume. It's not that rare in wild nature to die from starvation, so why burn through your reserves unless its life-or-death scenario.

Peak performance is taxing, just look at how our bodies react to stress/threat which mobilizes whole body.
How is that a one liner?

Compare to: cp srcfile destloc/destfile

Edit: In addition, the above gulp command reports success even if the file doesn't exist. If you want to check that, you need to import another library and expand the command with another pipe.

Well, you hate them (and snakes) because evolutionary you're supposed to [for survival].
The "status quo" is "the person who was elected gets to be President".

He gets to be President until he's impeached, loses an election, or is declared unable to discharge his duties using the procedure in the 25th Amendment.

And... that's it. He doesn't get a guarantee that nobody will criticize him or his agenda. He doesn't get a guarantee that nobody will try to rally legislative support to prevent his agenda being enacted. He doesn't get a guarantee that nobody will use the courts to challenge his executive orders. He doesn't get a guarantee that the courts will allow any executive order he issues. He doesn't get a guarantee that state and local governments will assist federal initiatives. He doesn't get a guarantee that large donors will support him or his preferred candidates and causes.

There are many, many ways to challenge a sitting President without removing him from office. You don't have to challenge him, but the fact that you choose not to is a political choice, not an apolitical one, since it constitutes acceptance of and complicity in whatever he manages to do as a result of not being challenged.

Neutrality and "apolitical" stances are never neutral or apolitical. They always constitute acceptance of whatever will happen in the absence of your explicit action, since if you didn't want that stuff to happen you had an opportunity to challenge it and actively chose not to.
Soros is way scarier the way he is buying up district attorneys.

Manipulating Social Media to Undermine Democracy – New Report
Anecdotally, as an American I've never heard it before.

This isn’t a stare down at your local pub. Tesla committed to stating as fact what happened. If they are lying about it, any judge will rake them over the coals. For lying. They would likely lose this case for lying. And let’s watch how the plaintiff’s attorney doesn’t turn around a file a defamation suit.

People claim the world is flat. People with stupid ideas who reject all contrary evidence are extremely common in all walks of life.

I’m pretty sure Rust saves you from ALL data races so long as you stay within the boundaries of safe code. Do you have anything at all to reference otherwise that says only certain data races are detected while others are not?

To my knowledge you can defeat the compile-time data race detection if you are either doing unsafe or certain scenarios with Cell/RefCell but even in that case you are guaranteed runtime detection rather than compile time detection.

These feature alone is worth its weight in gold.
I clicked a few of those links and they were mostly instances of the word "race" appearing as part of, for example, "Traceable".

Somewhere on the second page I found a brief mention of a data race in rustc itself (that was fixed).

Looks pretty fearless to me!
What does incentivise them is that their entire marketing is based around the privacy messaging, and thus pretty much their entire userbase considers that their primary selling point. If it ever came out that they were handing over that data to whomever, they'd be gone in an instant.

PyTorch Machine Learning Tutorials from MILA
Yes. My apologies for any misunderstanding on my side. What i meant is that i'm very happy Tesla has a policy to rather fight than ever give in. I'm sad that option is usually only available with lots and lots money.
Hmm, good point. (Sanity co-founder/developer here) Based on launch day feedback, it seems we did assume some of these concepts were more widely understood in the developer community than they actually are. We will recalibrate our messaging accordingly as soon as possible.

We don't actually like neither the "headless" nor "CMS" part of the vernacular, but it seems to be the least unknown description of our product category around.

The classical CMS provides a way to author your content married to a templating engine that describes how your content gets rendered to HTML. This last part is what is considered the "head" when we speak of a headless CMS. Simplistically a headless CMS is a CMS that provide an api to the content instead of rendering it as html. Then you write the "head" (i.e. front end) in whatever technology you prefer using those apis.

A fair question then would be: what's the big deal? Can't you just stick an api on Wordpress and off you go? That leads to the other, less obvious difference: A good headless CMS is focused on authoring the content as structured data so that it is clear to the presentation layer what each piece of information means. Take this project page from the OMA.eu site:

http://oma.eu/projects/timmerhuis

If you expand the Location, Year and Program parts of the metadata you'll see maps, timelines and charts. These are all rendered by the front-end based on long-lats, lists of milestones and area usage authored by the OMA editors. In their old CMS these would be uploaded as images and html-fragments, but with Sanity it is described as a structure of data-points with a defined meaning. This allows us to use those same data points to provide advanced search functionality (give me buildings widh 20-30% office space and more than 5% retail), and it has also allowed us to generate print-ready books from the exact same dataset that power their web-site.

The big hairy goal of a headless CMS is to disentangle the content from its presentation, and thus make the content reusable across many forms of presentations ultimately making the work spent authoring that content more valuable.
Sure, but it is a literal answer to what you asked, 'what it is'. For what it does (the toys), I recommend the Feature Tour (https://www.manuscript.com/features/task-management) and for the problem, beyond the video, the best source for now is the launch post: https://medium.com/make-better-software/introducing-manuscri.... I'll get more from that added to the homepage. Thanks for the feedback.

I found out one in Turbo Pascal for MS-DOS.

Pascal functions use assignment to function name as the way to set the return value, as it happens, Turbo Pascal would allow declaring a local variable with the same name and then return garbage as the function's result.
No. You absolutely need instruments. Flying IFR without instruments is an absolutely sure fire way to get killed. You can't fly straight and level without an artificial horizon. You don't know if you're descending without, at the bare minimum, an altimeter. You don't know if you're about to stall without and airspeed indicator. You don't know which direction you're going without a compass.
Not having instruments in ideal VFR conditions is perfectly fine, but if the weather goes south you're dead.

Edit: also some aircraft are going totally glass. I've seen some homebuilts and super cubs without steam gauges completely, and it's just a matter of time until Cessna, Boeing, Airbus, etc eliminate them.
Vimium wasn't even available for Firefox before (it was a Chrome extension), but it is now.

Yes, same for me. I know which commercial wheat products I can eat, and which I can't. There's no obvious correlation. Stuff that's labeled "gluten-free" is generally OK. But some whole-wheat stuff that's clearly not gluten-free is also OK.

So basically, I eat what I know is safe for me. If there's something that appeals a lot, I may test a little.
If someone gossips to you they will gossip about you. Maybe not today or tomorrow, but they will.
For network applications, yes. Web? no.

It actually shares a lot of the usecase with golang, I would say, if the program can be distributed as binary, there would probably no golang.
PUBG inspired nothing, those kind of battle royale games have been around for ages (ages in game terms, a year or two ago H1Z1 accidentally popularized battle royale as an alternate mode in its zombie survival game, which was in beta).

AFAIK PUBG was made in response to other games that used to be popular in the genre failing after major changes, specifically H1Z1.

EDIT: Fair-cop to them though, they've obviously done a greaat job. It's just that games like this are already coming out constantly, it's the new genre to clone. Before battle royale was that hot genre, it was MOBAs[1] + survival games a few years ago and MMOs were a few years before that. Battle Royale is actually a sort of spin off out of the survival genre. Another interesting thing to note is that survival/battle royale games have a lot of indie entrants who tend to have long alpha phases where hype makes them incredibly popular (DayZ, 7 days to die, Rust, Ark: Survial Evolved, Unturned, Don't Starve). Then the player base can sometimes die off as the game suffers from poor performance and slow development.

At the moment PUBG is suffering from lots of hackers, so we'll see whether it actually stays popular.

That sounds pretty horrifying! But reading the issue (linked from the github issues linked by sibling), the actual response seems pretty reasonable. He looked into it and determined it was an issue with your setup, and asked for more information (if he couldn't reproduce it, what else could he do?). He also made a guess at what was wrong. You provided more information and a workaround (nice!) and a few weeks later he closed it saying he believes its now fixed. Seems ok to me.
A sybill attack would greatly increase the probability. And has cheatingly other gains.
Political correctness defeats the purpose.
Well, yes, but people are going to have browsers. This does make it easier for me to install Firefox for my mom and not have her call me about "not being able to visit websites anymore" and me having to figure out something removed her address bar or something.

I mean, obviously there's pros and cons, but it's a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation.

It’s also rather misleading since the majority of computing resources in the US are in “cloud” data centers (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, etc.) and they never bother to take the time to run Linpack on their clusters because making $$ is more important. I would wager Google’s compute cells alone would constitute a few dozen slots in the top 100.
