To me this situation is more more like having a screwdriver that can only be screwed with hammers from a particular manufacturer (Linux -> GCC), because that manufacturer is the only one that makes hammers with screw-driving tips that work with that particular screw head (non-portable macros for type-checking or whatever goes on there). You might as well just get a normal screwdriver (C++ compiler) and a normal screw (C++ program) like the rest of the world does -- and there's no implication that you have to keep changing screw tips (-std=c++??) every time Apple (standards committee) decides to come up with a new format (C++17).

In no way is what I said meant to be "Crippling worry that affects my life". More of a rational: "this is the most likely way I get really screwed, so I bought insurance"
I'm not a fan of the substance of the Opinion piece -- e.g. labelling of "good leftists":

>Remember, antisemitism differs from other racisms in its belief that Jews are the secret masters of the universe, pulling the strings that shape world events – and always for the sake of evil. [...] Once you swallow that canard and see the Jews as the wielders of clandestine, malign power, why, then it becomes your duty as a good leftist to fight the Jews.

No one is saying the Jews should get a free pass for anything they do.

Just that Israel seems like a very small reparation to pay for centuries of oppression.

Israel is a far, far less "apartheid" nation than other middle eastern nations. So why does Israel get all the hate? Because of latent anti-Semitic beliefs in society, which is the point of my post.
Opposition to specific Israeli policies is no different from opposition to specific policies of any country. Being “anti-Israel”—I.e. anti- an entire country whose national identity is founded in Jewishness—is pretty damn close to anti-Semitism. Support of terrorist groups like Hamas or Hezbollah who seek to exterminate Jews is essentially anti-Semitism.

It’s considered racist to be “anti-“ any other country. If you went around being anti-Zimbabwe people would call you a racist, even though Zimbabwe has, by all accounts, an extremely shitty government.
> I want to be protected against the exact same attack vectors that Microsoft's business customers are protected against

I don’t think there’re such attack vectors. The reasons MS doing that with the data of their business customers are legal, not technical.

They keep medical data, legal data, government data for many jurisdictions around the world. Before doing that, they had to comply with FIPS 140-2, HIPAA, and a whole bunch of others: https://products.office.com/en-us/business/office-365-trust-...

As a kid, I really loved focusing a magnifying glass on pieces of wood to burn them, without eye protection obviously.

I haven't had any noticable problems because of it, but I do kinda wonder if it didn't cause a bit of damage.
Apple doesn't have a dedicated MacOS development team anymore and laptops are normally harder to steal/gain access than phones. They have had quite a few security vulnerabilities in the past few months that anyone with physical access could exploit.
on one hand 'biggest worry' - your biggest worry, statistically speaking, should be driving to work, as a young person, and eating cheeseburgers, if you are older. If you're more afraid of other things, like crime or whatever, than you are of driving to work, yeah, that's not rational.

On the other hand, i think disability insurance is not even a little bit crazy; Of course, know that if you use it, you'll probably use it because you got screwed up in an auto accident (few people carry enough insurance to cover lost work for a software engineer for very long) but I think auto accidents are common enough to want to hedge against it.
Right, that's the p-hacking section. If the death rate goes down and also the causes of death shift around, it's dishonest to focus narrowly on the subset of causes of death that went up. And if you look at so many different things that something as obscure and specific as "malignant schwannoma in the heart" is, then your paper better mention multiple-hypothesis correction, which this one doesn't.

(I predict that this paper, which went to the press before peer review, will not pass peer review, for this reason.)
That works for a few seconds, not more.

Your first example isn't representative, unless Niantic organised the event in a place where there was only one boat people could possibly rent for practical reasons in the area. I would argue this makes it really stupid planning by Niantic.

In your second example, if Trader Joe is the only potato shop remotely close, then it was indeed also really stupid planning by Niantic

I've been pulled over for:

- "You were driving suspiciously" (a little below the speed limit)

- "Saw you yesterday at this time (1 AM) and wanted to see what you were up to" (driving home from work)

- "You looked too young to be out after curfew" (was 19)

I've also been stopped and searched while walking for:

- "Walking in front of closed businesses" (walking down the sidewalk at 10 PM)

- "I caught a whiff of marijuana" (I had never even seen marijuana in real life)

And several more that escape my memory at the moment. I'm pretty sure those were all illegal stops, and that's what bothers me - not that the cop would look twice and take note of me, but that he would blatantly break the law himself with no consequences.

That was 20+ years ago, and although I'm white, I used to wear a lot of black, so I probably did fit one of the cop's "troublemaker" stereotypes. I think being a young male of any race, especially at night, accounts for most police profiling and brazenly illegal stops, but I have no doubt that young minority males experience more of it.

The recent Firefox releases should be praised. Stable and beautiful. I hope Mozilla internally is stable now. Firefox shouldn't be abandoned. I can understand why Mozilla Corporation needs to find new revenue resources. Mozilla should not be afraid to be a provider of some sort, like offering multi-auth is an option. If we continue to build products and tools which can offer better privacy and security, there will be lights for Mozilla. IoT, IMO, is a dead end. Tile was a mistake. Pocket is a moot acquisition: is anyone actually using it daily?

Lastly, this may be an unpopular opinion: time for a leadership overhaul, and I mean from the very top. Otherwise, I think Mozilla as a community and the people working for the Mozilla are doing great jobs.
My name isn't Marty and suggesting people haven't read the article is explicitly mentioned as something to avoid in this site's guidelines.

I think a good faith reading of the article (and my earlier comment) would suggest that the author and/or editor are (as other comments have suggested) using "endangered" as shorthand for "will go extinct soon if no action is taken".

I personally don't think the difference between "Vulnerable" and "Endangered" is as significant as the difference betweeen "Least Concern" and "Vulnerable". From the IUCN's 2016 assessment (http://www.iucnredlist.org/details/9194/0):

> Giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis) is assessed as Vulnerable under criterion A2 due to an observed, past (and ongoing) population decline of 36-40% over three generations (30 years, 1985-2015). The factors causing this decline (levels of exploitation and decline in area of occupancy and habitat quality) have not ceased and may not be reversible throughout the species’ range.

I do have empathy. The nations surrounding Israel unfortunately do not.

If they decided to convene a summit tomorrow and say "we accept the existence of Israel" instead of their hateful rhetoric that they want to see Israel wiped off the map, the entire problem would be solved.

The victim blaming here is deplorable. The Arabs refuse to accept a Jewish Homeland. Hence the wars, hence the sustained conflict.

Yep, it's way easier to implement in some other languages. Btw, is it callable as well? Can you do Whatever.new().foo.bar().baz with it?
Jews, Christians, conservatives, and straight white men are the only 4 groups it's ok to openly hate and mock to almost any degree you want.

And if you call people out they will say your a cry baby or whatever.

Some think these groups deserve to be taken down a few pegs so anything you want to say or do is "justified".

This seems like a strawman argument. The original reporting from the guardian didn’t call this a hack. Also, the most egregious actions taken by Facebook are similar to actions taken by other companies after large user data compromises (Uber, Equifax). Facebook/Zuckerberg made a decision not to inform users that their data was compromised by an application they, or their friends had used. That is negligence. That is why people should be upset with Facebook. That is why I have stopped using it. This has little to do with Facebook getting hacked, and much more to do with a lack of social responsibility on facebooks part.
Going to need a source for that.

> I thought rust would want to reduce cache churn

I think the main way Rust reduces cache churn, is that it makes it safer to pass references/pointers around instead of making copies. For example, if I have f(char*) in C, I might be worried about what f is doing with that pointer. It might save it somewhere, or try to free it, or who knows what. In C++, I might prefer to write f(std::string) to avoid those worries, but that comes at the cost of unnecessarily copying the string. (You could pass it by reference to avoid the copy, but then you still have to worry about f saving the reference.) In Rust, I can safely write f(&str), and I know f can't do anything dirty with that reference.
I thought that we didn't do political stuff on HN? Is it ok because it's attacking the left?

I don't even know what to say here. Claiming that people aren't attacked vigorously by right wing Israelis and their surrogates after someone has criticized Israel is absurd. Corbyn was always going to face something like this.

Antisemitism is coming from the right. The establishment will side with them over any anti-capitalist left.

It's also a question of the importance of the issue that you're "rocking the boat" about. It might be completely OK to argue with your manager about how the UI for a particular feature should look, but not OK at all to question the ethics of the company's mission, or the ways in which it makes money.
The problem isn't that other people have access to it, but that it's personally identifiable to you while it's still out on the curb.

Nope. Ruby doesn’t support the function call paren syntax for anything other than methods. You could do stuff like Whatever.new().foo.().bar[] though.

The Roaming Empire
An upvote wasn't enough - I REALLY wanted to work with OVH but their various web portals can't seem to even consistently remember your country or language, billing is a nightmare, etc. One of the few experiences I've had in life where they made working with them (and giving them money) so impossible I began to wonder if they're a front or money laundering operation. To be clear on that point I know they aren't and I'm not accusing them of any wrongdoing, the experience was so appallingly bad I had to come up with a humorous explanation just to rationalize the whole thing.

You’re using way too strong of language. A move in C++ doesn’t require the original object to be invalidated or even modified in any way. POD-ish types, for example, are “moveable” despite not being made empty or invalid after a move (their move is implemented as a copy, which is perfectly valid).

This is just nonsense. I worked at Apple in the years after the iPhone launch and nothing changed. And companies are comprised of many teams and so they are more than capable of working on more than one thing at once.

Now as I've mentioned before the real blame can be attributed to the switch to Agile. There has been a noticeable increase in the frequency of OSX/iOS point releases since then. But also a subsequent decrease in quality.

Apple has realised this which is why there are focusing more on quality and we have seen already the results of this with the last OSX/iOS update where we've never had a X.6 point release for a while.

That doesn't contradict what he said at all, in fact it isn't even really surprising.
I'm not pcwalton, but he is correct. The Rust compiler only allows objects that implement the Sync trait to cross thread boundaries. Rc<T> is not Sync, while Arc<T> is. Sync is a marker trait, with impls automatically generated by the compiler for types that are comprised entirely of Sync types, or manually (and unsafely) specified by the author. As a result, Rc<T> cannot be misused from multiple threads without unsafe.
