Reminds me of the video "A Trip Down Market Street" (in San Francisco, 1906, right before the earthquake) [1]. This comment on the video says it all: "The good old days when kids use to play in traffic lol﻿". All the jaywalking. Look how relaxed people are. No smartphones.

Its distasteful however how some people seem to break traffic laws. Especially speeding. A road at an elementary school nearby which I regularly pass enforces 30 km/h. People drive at least 55 if not 60 (the default is 50). The gains from such behaviour are minuscule, if any. Even the gains of driving 150 instead of 130 for 2 hrs are minor.

I'm still not 100% sure you understand my comments. I wasn't suggesting you choose a frontend framework or DB for the user. Just show how to connect to a DB of their choosing. Also, if you use the yeoman generator and choose MVC you get controllers, views, models - or something along those lines, right?. So my suggestion was: if a user chooses MVC, it would be nice to be able to do something like: yo roosevelt books. And it give you a books controller, view, and model. Or something similar to that. So that each time they want to add a resource, they dont have to perform the same action (manually creating those files) over and over again. They can just use yeoman to speed up the workflow.
It’s actually pretty similar.

It is pretty easy to find the meat processing plants, agribusinesses, construction companies, etc who demand labor at prices not possible on the legal market.

Likewise, it is very easy to find the johns soliciting prostitutes, even high end ones. (Recall former governor Eliot Spitzer)

Why isn’t the traffic ahead of the car taken into account? When I’m driving, following the car in front is a pretty good way to decide where it’s safe. Conversely, going somewhere no car ahead is going seems like a bad idea.

It's not the only container I'm running. I also have the backend for a mobile app hosted there, my fiance's blog, and some other projects. An entire GKE cluster is definitely overkill for just a blog, but I use it for a lot more than that.
Every single time I've seen someone say something like, "We don't need constraints; we have validations", they've had to clean up their data — when it turned out validations aren't enough.

Please do future-you a favor: use constraints.
They're very nifty, as you can use this to easily prevent all kinds of date range overlaps.
One example: storing a large text buffer in a persistent data structure (e.g. a rope) can allow you to maintain a space-efficient history of "snapshots" simply by keeping pointers to older versions of the buffer.

Fs2-Blobstore: A Functional Interface for Key/Value Store
Depends on the model, or actually technically it depends on the bootcode but which version is preloaded depends on the model.

The brand new Pi 3B+ ships with the latest bootcode and will boot from USB mass storage or PXE by default. Their PXE is a bit nonstandard but it's close enough that anyone who's PXE booted a PC will understand it.

The older Pi 3 supports USB and PXE booting, but has those modes disabled by default. There's a bit you can set in one-time programmable memory to enable it permanently. PXE booting has some quirks in this mode and doesn't get along with switches that take more than a second or so to activate ports.

Earlier models do not support anything but SD on their stock bootcode.

In all cases, a SD card containing nothing but the latest bootcode can be inserted which brings the new features to the older models, allowing them to boot the rest of the OS from whatever.

“responsibilities than they can handle, and development suffers from this person being fatigued, or worse, leaving altogether. Neither the engineer nor team can grow because of this, as new features or changes get increasingly more resource-demanding to implement”

This is said about mid-level engineers who burn out, but I think it happens to senior level engineers as well.
Trump is a public figure, and I'm pretty sure there is a public figure exception within GDPR to the right to be forgotten.
The root cause of this is likely because there is some legacy system at the bottom of the authentication stack. The password rules give this away -- there is an upper limit on length (50 characters), and you can't use symbols (@, $, etc) or spaces (precluding xkcd-style "correct battery horse staple" memorable passwords). Use a password manager ("storing passwords under symmetric encryption") and don't reuse your password across sites.
Can We Code Without Comments? //maybe
If you read the full article instead of just the opening, you get to it:

The prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease has, it’s worth noting, sharply increased in recent decades.

Then there are artificial sweeteners like sucralose and saccharin, which we consume in diet sodas and “sugar-free” snacks in hopes of cutting calories. Our bodies can’t directly digest most of them — they’re meant to pass right through — but it turns out that the microbes inhabiting our colons can metabolize the sweeteners, potentially to our detriment.

Scientists at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel have found that, in mice, saccharin causes glucose intolerance, a marker of impending diabetes — and one disease that those who eat these sweeteners are probably trying to avoid. When the scientists transplanted microbes from mice fed saccharine to mice that hadn’t consumed the sweetener, the recipient animals developed glucose intolerance as well, suggesting that the microbiome that was warped by the sweetener, not the sweetener itself, was causing the problems.

Here's a thought: let consenting adults do what they want with each other.

I have no problem with you nofapping (or joining AA, or whatever), and I'm happy for law enforcement to prosecute actual sex trafficking, but let the rest of the law-abiding/consenting individuals do what they want.
Problem is that you have to be a part of one of the "current partners" so if you haven't joined an accelerator or have VC funding you don't get access.

Do you have a source for that last claim? I thought food calories were measured by burning the food in a calorimeter and multiplying by some fudge factors for bioavailability. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-do-food-manuf...
In that case make it required by law to publish apology following same format as was the original article. Did you print the false claim on title page of newspaper? Same place, same size for and apology. Same with web articles. That should at least make it searchable by engines.
> Also at that age the options to change one's life are pretty limited compared to being in your 20s.

A second cousin of mine in his 40s, 50s works at a factory. He did a classics course through the Open University. He still works at the factory, because he likes the work, but he was more than able to do the course, and he felt that he was more prepared for the coursework at that age than if he had done it earlier.

For most people, the options are still there, you're just less likely to see them as an option. Never underestimate your potential later in life. As long as you maintain your levels of exercise and take care of your body, you are on average just as capable to change careers as you were when you were twenty.

As a secondary source, there was recently an Ask Hacker News thread of people who had started their programming careers in their fifties, I sadly cannot find the like :c
Alright, I can grant that is true, although if you assume an ISP like Comcast has thousands (or more) simultaneous Skype calls, and they come and go often enough that it's likely you'll be dealing with many starting at close to the same time... there's a lot to track there. Also, bear in mind, you have to weed this out from all the unidirectional calls: Comcast to [other ISP] and [other ISP to Comcast] calls, so you can't even make one-to-one matches reliably.

And of course, when you compare to the tech industry alternative: Microsoft knows who is talking to who straight up (and on a global scale), whereas the ISP can only guess. And while the ISP's understanding of who is calling who ends at the household, Microsoft knows which user accounts made the call, which is much more likely to correlate to individual people.
ISP data is "Our" data, whereas FB/ Google data is "MY" data. So they can generally be extremely accurate.

This is a great analogy! To add a little color, all of those satellites that are geostationary (most of them used for communications to date, with the exceptions of Iridium and o3b) are like vans laid out along the equator. Starlink's satellites (in addition to being at a much, much lower altitude) are in different planes - for even more separation from existing satellites.
I'm wondering. Why would encrypting the password be any more worse than hashing ? If the private key of encryption is well kept, I don't see why they couldn't do that.

I understand though that no one being able to know the password except the user is utmost security, but why not encrypting it ?

What I wrote is in no way contradictory to your experience.

Great tech MUST be sold, once you have the proof of concept you must get someone great at marketing on board to help you sell it. There are plenty of great marketers who can help you with this (for a price...).

My only point is as a great technical person you start with getting it working before trying to sell it. Once it is working great marketing people will come on board and help you sell it - that is partially a matter of finding customers and partially a matter of making you admit those hard rough edges need to be fixed.
Yeah. I quite like the way the second edition was conveyed, though, with additions and amendments indicated by typographic conventions, because the result is that when you have the second edition, you also kinda have the first edition. It's also cool from a historical perspective, since it is very much an intermediate "development snapshot" between CLtL1 and the ANSI standard, and the votes and discussion topics are meticulously catalogued.

But despite CLtL2 not being a standard per se, I think the ANSI standard as published retains a lot of the "spirit" of CLtL, in that it defines things precisely without resorting to obtuse formalisms or overly-dry description, and in that it is organized in a similarly versatile way.

That's the propaganda, but the text does not restrict the limitation of Section 230 safe harbor to only apply to “purpose driven websites related to prostitution”.

None of which requires modifying Section 230 to address.

I think the poster 'IBM' was implying that in the current climate, Google and Facebook have to be a lot more careful in the "weapons of war" they use than Apple does. Not that Apple would be this evil, but in the current climate, Apple might even invite opportunity to provoke a response by Google or Facebook.
Take a look at the comment thread this started, it was about porn.

Equating porn with sex trafficking is a KNOWN tactic of people / orgs against porn to say it contributes to 'sex trafficking'. Groups like this say it all the time [1][2]. There are also large religious/authoritative groups behind the push and funding. Really it is about gaining more control over you to limit your freedoms.

> Pornography is in and of itself a form of sex trafficking [1].

> They teach that there is no acceptable amount of porn to watch; anyone who consumes porn is considered an addict. Utah’s new anti-porn resolution contains language that echoes the Mormon church’s doomsday predictions: “Pornography equates violence towards women and children with sex and pain with pleasure, which increases the demand for sex trafficking, prostitution, child sexual abuse images, and child pornography,” the resolution reads. “Pornography use is linked to lessening desire in young men to marry, dissatisfaction in marriage, and infidelity.” [2]

The only strawman are those setups. Groups are pushing these types of laws all over the country in especially authoritarian states/orgs.

It freaks me out some are moving back to a crazy conservative view of sex/humans almost scarlet letter-esque, shaming, culty, very controlling and authoritarian view over your own body and mind.

“On iOS, there is no full-disk or full-volume encryption, only varying levels of file-based encryption...”

I don't understand this claim. iOS had full disk encryption starting with iOS 3.0, in 2010. Or at least Apple (and other security experts) says it does:

https://darthnull.org/security/2014/10/06/ios-encryption/

Am I missing something here?
I'm not even sure what that statement means. Are you saying that there is no standard effect of a consistent diet on health? That humans eat different stuff? You seemed to be trying to suggest that contrary examples of people eating lots of carbs but not having negative health consequences was somehow irrelevant to this debate.
There is that argument. But both are likely vulnerable to coercion from some adversaries. And of course, that's always a risk.
I don't think not following proper standard is deliberatelt doing something wrong.

What if I'm just unaware of the standard or incompetent?

Not all programmer who save password in plaintext starts by thinking "I'm going to intentionally doing this wrong so that it breaks all security guidelines".
This is not a universally adopted solution, and for good reason. Publishing the suspect's name/face as well as the details of the alleged crime encourages witnesses to come forward. Plus, from a free speech perspective, it seems crazy to criminalize the publishing of true information, especially when it directly relates to public safety and the government's exercise of its police powers.

None of these benchmarks really represent what Optane is useful at if you are buying it as an SSD storage you’ll be wasting money.

https://www.pcper.com/reviews/Storage/Intel-Optane-SSD-900P-...

The biggest bottleneck in the current form factor is the OS which is why the Optane can match a ram drive in latency.

Once Optane DIMMs will hit the market or once a dedicated access protocol will be developed for low latency non volatile storage will be developed and the OS won’t be as much of a bottleneck it would be much more useful.
This could really use some examples.

I hope this is as easy to use as, say, the jv functions in libjq [0].

> The amazing thing to me is that now people can make games without a bunch of great engineers.

I remember reading an interview with a well known person in the 3D and gaming industry in a gaming magazine well over a decade ago. I can barley recall the details but one thing that stuck out was the interviewer asked why couldn't the game engine be the API giving the developers higher level tools instead of OpenGL or direct 3d, as well as audio, input and others. The answer was that game engines were too focused and not flexible enough to be used as a kitted API.

Fast forward to today and that is exactly what Unreal and Unity have achieved. They built game engines that are flexible enough to be complete tool kits to build other games. Interesting to see how far we have progressed.

Digikey can be intimidating. The interface is kind of clunky, and for a beginner (like me!) it's overkill when you just want a couple of 10uF capacitors but get 60,000 hits for every variation of exotic capacitor ever made, and pricing for units of 1000s.

I find jameco.com very friendly for a beginner. Prices are about the same as elsewhere, shipping is fine, selection is fine for a beginner, and usually it's usually pretty easy to narrow the search results to just a few parts that have fairly clear differences. They have a pretty nice email newsletter too, essentially the only newsletter I allow through my spam filters, and the only one I've ever clicked on non-accidentally. The regularly feature hobby projects on their front page, from premade kits to more advanced stuff.

Um... there are some things that are designed specifically without the right to be forgotten...

You are correct. Few realize that China -- nearly all of it -- had been exposed to Christisnity; albeit, a really bizarre form of it preached by Xiuquan.

I don't believe this period of China's history is taught much in China and, after all of the purges and communist stuff that happened later, I don't think it's part of the collective consciousness. Could be wrong. But, my Chinese friends had never even heard of the Xiuquan episode. (There are similar 'wierd' periods in European/Americsn history that are likewise glossed over and forgotten.)
