Out of those 4.5k issues, 1000 are closed. 2600 of them are on Rust repositories. Clicking on the first other one, "shell", the very first result is on the Rust RFCs repo. Let's look at the first page overall:

https://github.com/TOTBWF/SteamCurses/issues/16 is someone who is making an issue on their own project because they are interested in a Rust re-write.

https://github.com/acrisci/i3-style/pull/38 is someone who has a PR open on their own project to re-write in Rust.

https://github.com/mintsuki/storm/issues/2 is someone being obnoxious, sure. Not serious, but you could also say it's annoying.

https://github.com/tkaden4/karat/issues/2 is someone on their own repo.

https://github.com/jezen/is-thirteen/issues/582 is already on a joke project, so it's also a joke.

https://github.com/dadrian/whereiszakir/issues/4 is someone on their own project.

https://github.com/adangert/telegram-events-bot/issues/1 does seem like an actual random person making a real suggestion.

https://github.com/spencereir/pharbot/issues/1 is being meme-y so probably not serious, still annoying.

https://github.com/ansuz/RIIR/issues/35 is on a repo specifically to track this phenomenon. It has 35 issues open. Many of which aren't actually examples of people saying this.

https://github.com/jezen/is-thirteen/issues/497 is a second issue on the joke project above.

------------------------------

So, yes. Out of 900 possible issues, in the top 10, one may be a serious request, and two are shitposting, which may be annoying as well, admittedly, but is just as likely to come from people complaining about this as from "The rust community" broadly.

At that level, it's effectively noise.

Replacing inaddr_t with inaddr6_t is trivial, and does not require any significant effort at all.

Replacing everything else is hard. My house is on IPv4 and will be on IPv4 for foreseeable future, because all of my setup (filtering, metering, monitoring, fixed IP assignment) is completely unusable in the new IPv6 world with privacy extensions where addresses are not only random, but change constantly.
World richest company needs your money to sell you others music

There is a controversy right now in California that the bar for police to use deadly force is too low - currently the police officer needs to claim fear in a situation to justify use of deadly force.
http://www.sacbee.com/latest-news/article207741689.html
There was a Supreme Court case recently that gives law enforcement a pretty wide latitude to justify deadly force - the police officer in this case disobeyed a superior's order and also was not trained in the situation for which he decided to shoot.

The kind where you're revealing a secret, a stolen object, or a falsehood.

You know, actual extortion.
Treating your employees pretty terribly unfortunately often comes with the package for alot of "visionary leaders". If you have a single minded focus toward one specific goal, you forget alot of basic decency.

Steve Jobs was also famous for being a shitty boss.
I'm still skeptical.

Yes, they have been behaving better since they've been beaten into submission. But, at least as of 4 years ago, they are still charging a tax on Android phones[0]; Their "secure boot" shenanigans still require community workarounds on amd64 (and locking down their ARM stuff) to the point that on many consumer machines, you have to get microsoft's blessing to run an OS of your choice (and you have that blessing ... for now).

Windows 10 takes away user control of the user's own machines, and it was less than 3 years ago that they used the worst dark UI patterns to get people to move to 10 (... and, hid telemetry among the security updates for Win7/Win8.1 holdouts).

So, despite being beaten into submission, and thus not behaving like "they are the world", it feels to me like the mean old Microsoft is still just beneath the surface waiting to get out again.

I would love to see Apple create an iPod with a 10Tb SSD and e-ink display pre-loaded with virtually every song from iTunes.

The biggest issue is that it would just be a matter of time before someone cracked the music library encryption.. Would a solution where the device uniquely encrypts every song for the user's account and requires a cellular network to retrieve a per-song key work?
> In my experience, GPS is great for city driving with clear path to the sky (and >50% battery for any trip that is over an hour). Not so good in mountainous or remote locations.

I use my phone's GPS in the wilderness all the time and it's an amazing help. Having a topo map where you can see exactly where you are is awesome. Even just having altitude is a big help like the other day when I was trudging up a steep forested ridge and wanted to know how many more hundreds of feet I had to go before the summit.

Of course you can live without GPS, but I just can't make any sense out of arguing that it isn't anything other than amazing. I'd give up a lot of stuff before I'd give up GPS.

Another wide-spread non-standarized TLD is .box. It is used by Fritz!Box home routers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fritz!Box). They are shipped with a really good operating system and handle the resolution of .box very seamless, integrating all the names of registering DHCP devices (i.e. you can resolve your-iphone.box in your LAN). The TLD stems from the "pun" http://fritz.box.
It's kind of a weird how it works. Users will be looking at the field they are typing on (or even the keyboard for some users). Then they'll look down for the next field and so on until they reach submit. I think users will often miss the color change entirely.

I think it'd make more sense to just make it red if there is any input options on the page at all.
I used to be a huge fan of Musk. I still am in some ways. But his recent behaviour is not worthy of his stature. I am specifically referring to:

1. Repeatedly failing to keep promises and coming up with excuses, very unlike Jobs who would not let even his VP's miss a deadline.

2. His rant on the earnings call with a few analysts who were asking genuine questions seemed so immature. You could never imagine Jobs would do such a thing.

3. His challenge with Buffett about moats and starting a candy company. This seemed so utterly silly and childish although you could argue he was joking. But again, I just cannot imagine Jobs talking like a loose character in public.

FYI:- I am long Tesla stock and think it could still be a great company although my confidence in that is a bit down at the moment.

Also, any honest examination of Steve Jobs biography would tell you that many of the skills/genius that he used to re-invent the world in the second half of his career he didn't possess at the beginning and learned along the way.

I doubt that’s true. HFT is big business but nowhere near that big. Keep in mind that a lot of the big HFT players failed a few years back due to revenues being too small to support the R&D operations. I think that what really made 10G affordable is trickle-down from the SAN world.
There's something called the "50/500" rule, which broadly indicates that a population needs more than 50 effective members to avoid short-term extinction and more than 500 to avoid long-term inbreeding depression.

This is really impressive. I'm happy someone is pushing the controller forward, as someone who's worked in video game controller tech.
Again: that has nothing to do with effecting arrest. I realize that sworn officers have legal protections regarding their actions to protect others, including the use of deadly force.

Can you show me where they have wider latitude to use force to effect an arrest?
This sounds super interesting but my knowledge in this area is too limited to fully get what you're saying.

they're the intellectual equivalent of buying mining rights for $5/acre ... The key is prospecting. You want to look around, get a good idea of how big a particular reserve is, and go for something big.

Could you elaborate on this a little or give an example?

As far as I understand CRADA is "cooperative R&D", so each side contributes to the R&D of some subject. Wikipedia says

"Private corporations participating in a CRADA are allowed to file for patent, and they retain patent rights on inventions developed by the CRADA. The government gets a license to the patents"

So if the govt already gets a license to the patents, and the tech has been developed with defense purposes in mind, how am I going to profit as a private company?
It's a bit of a misleading hypothesis. DumberPhone is probably a better Phone. Few want a Phone anymore and but use the word "Phone" as a placeholder for what they want-- "4-6 inch tablet in my hand" is what many use phones for (if it werent for a few family members and archaic organizations I probably would do away with my phone number entirely) .
And then, what's wrong with asking someone for directions?

(Red Flag or Yellow Flag) This article was based on a report from Aurelius Value, about a case that was filed a month ago. Aurelius Value makes my spidey sense bullshit detector light the F up. The drone maker looks to be a solid company with a stock that is steadily growing, 1MM volume, and just had a 52 week high in the last week. If I were a unethical bastard with a mandate to manipulate a company's short term stock prices, this wouldn't be a bad target.
This is very directly a product of the rapid increase in astronomical equipment vs a collider situation that has been dominated by the LHC with no new construction beyond that to speak of.

For me, Laphroaig Quarter Cask was also the first Whisky I bought. I kept it around for a long time (maybe 2 years) because I did not want to "waste" it too quickly.

The last few glasses I drank were really disappointing compared to the initial fanstastic glasses. I can't describe the tastes, but it was simply not good anymore. When too much air gets into the bottle, the Whisky can oxidize, changing its taste (usually for the worse).

I’ve seen traceroutes on private network setups that involve a catastrophe of different conflicting uses of 10.whatever addresses. Also, people use NAT on some of these private network for reasons that escape me.

100% of my work has been internal-facing systems for large companies. Should I compose a portfolio of it? How will a hiring manager be able to differentiate it from a bunch of bullshit?

As an artist, you can almost always point to something, and say: I did this. I designed that. I am credited on a blockbuster film.

As a programmer, you can almost always talk a hot game about how you did something, but you can rarely tie that to proof.

Are you saying that's the hiring manager's problem, not mine?
There's decades of academic work in the form of "impossibility" results showing that handling byzantine fault tolerance in distributed consensus is alot more computationally expensive than omission/crash fault tolerance. The following (FLP impossibility result) being one of the most famous ones:

I could say that open source apps — like the ones in f-droid — don't present the same amount of dark patterns that closed source proprietary apps do.

But I agree, getting rid of google's proprietary apps doesn't necessarily mean get rid of this attention/dopamine seeking world we find ourselves in.

However, I think a great part of how uncomfortable it feels to know that there's a smart phone in your pocket is knowing that it's spying on you, and getting rid of google's crap means that your phone doesn't spy on you, at least not by default.

What does a company's stock performance have to do with the allegation under discussion?
Wanted to clarify that my parent comment was based on the adversarial way the article was written, not on the content as it related to the features of WireGuard (which are superb).

The subsequent replies are all correct in that WireGuard is in fact simpler than OpenVPN to install/administer, has a smaller footprint and better performance as well. In that same vein, WireGuard is therefore magnitudes more efficient than the older VPN protocols that OpenVPN once usurped.
> it sounds like you went from being an atheist to an agnostic. That certainly is a more rational and less dogmatic position to take, based on what we know.

Likely because poster is assigning some linear value on metaphysical positions that can not be constrained in such a system.

What I mean is there are aspects of embedded work that can be found in other jobs which are potentially more lucrative and may make your life easier later in your career. So, unless there's something in embedded work in particular, that you can't find elsewhere, it might be considering those jobs.

An example might be, if you like bit twiddling, digging into hard often hardware related problem, you might consider something like an SRE role.

Good luck. I definitely think personal webpages and self-hosted forums need to make a comeback.

Your FAQ link leads to a 404 page, and the "legalese" on the registration page seems like a bit much to me. And why should I need to be registered to see the "team" page and profiles?

Anything using the currencies as stores of wealth or mediums of exchange seem to be better suited by traditional finance which are less volatile and capable of higher volume. Anything using the ledger as a distributed datastore seems like it would be better suited by a datastore that wasn't wrapped up in a currency ledger and uses a consensus algorithm less costly than proof-of-work.

He was flaky and kind of a joke though. His entire life the only times he managed to be a decent contributor was when he was the boss of an entire company and got his way 100% of the time. Even then he was an incredibly toxic leader and was known for throwing tantrums on a regular basis.

He was incredibly talented, but he had more than his fair share of personality defects.

Why? US health care is proven to be inferior to that of many European countries.

I suspect the reason that AMA limit access to US markets for foreign trained doctors is because limiting the supply of doctors in the US would likely increase the average salary for current US doctors.

Two-party consent laws raise an interesting point: how could Duplex operate legally in California?

Google probably wants recordings of each call, so they'd have to include a preamble. Phone systems that say "Your call may be recorded for quality assurance purposes" usually:

1. Make you press a button before you speak to a human, thereby recording your consent.

2. Don't record before that point (since you're in the phone tree.)

Seems unlikely Duplex will pass as human, for legal reasons.

> ... someone has to build the world that the easier to understand, higher level pieces live in."

Ah I love reading that! Some people really enjoy watching other people use or get use out of something they built or helped build. Some people just like knowing that the things they built or worked on are useful to folks and make their days / lives a bit easier. Then there are folks like you who are content to know that exactly because nobody knows your work exists or knows that you worked on that work specifically pretty much means you've done a great job. I'm sure that's an entirely different type of good feeling of knowing the things you worked on were useful.
There is some degree of luck in these detections: we can watch large patches of the sky at low sensitivity or small patches of the sky at high sensitivity, but at high sensitivity we cannot watch the whole sky at once (rather, choosing small patches to study).
