This is not true for Germany and maybe other national license holders. In Germany the public broadcasters ARD and ZDF have the whole matches and summaries online for free (i.e. https://www.sportschau.de/fifa-wm-2018/video/index.html ) But that's geo-blocked from other countries as they only have a national license.

At least over here streaming is a large part of this (best way to reach people in offices for matches in the afternoon) and they pay a lot of money for that to FIFA, where FIFA then ensures the exclusivity.

It ain't nice and too much money involved to really free that up.

Just go back to the original example

I have to read the beginning of the line, then jump to find the as (which is not very obvious in the expression) then find the var name.

> if nlines := rawdata.count("\n", i, j):

Here I do a continual motion from the beginning of the line up to the start of the condition

> the left-hand side of the assignment is completely irrelevant to the if statement

It is relevant to the subsequent block of code, I need to know what 'nlines' mean.

Im sure it depends on the plant, as im basing this on weed growing info, but with the top economical growing LEDs take 35-50 watts per square foot. With vegetative growth possible down to 11 W/sqft but at a much slower rate.

At a cost of atleast $2 a per watt for lights (possibly up to $4 a square foot for industrial/commercial electrical rating) and assuming 35 watts per square foot, a 2000 square foot grow space, you are looking at $140,000 in LEDs alone. plus 70KW for 16 hours a day(+10% more for supply inefficiencies), that's about 1200 kilowatt hours of power needed to supply daily. Not sure how many panels that is but it has to be a lot.

That almost nothing changes except for the words people use because that's all that they can influence.

Now, real change is precursed by a change in attitude and a change in attitude can be in turn precursed by a change in terminology.

But a change in terminology does not always lead to a change in attitude and a change in attitude does not always lead to real change.

It's confusing cause and effect.
I would recommend speaking to someone from the LXC team. I only know of their systemd pains second-hand, but there are many many many things that systemd has done throughout its history that made it a royal pain to run in a container. I also have my own battle-scars from systemd but they are mostly related to systemd on the host rather than inside a container.

Here's one piece of evidence though[1]. Effectively systemd enabled a security feature for the host's /dev/console and when we said it wasn't necessary for containers (because /dev/console is not a real console) and it actually broke runc, Lennart said that we should fix runc.

I am not a big fan of government meddling, but when companies are so crucial for so many people I am starting (maybe it's me getting older) to think it would be a good thing if there would be special rules made for companies like that. If 100s of millions of people use your product, it kind of be becomes a common good; I don't say it should be gov owned, but some law that they cannot, without recourse other than expensive trials which you won't win, remove something of yours and then not answer the phone. I know too many people who gambled on facebook, google, oracle(yes...) and others for their livelihood; invested their time and money into it just to get tossed out by a not very good algorithm. I am one of those, but in hindsight I am actually happy about it; it taught me never to have anything depend on any company where I cannot directly contact the CEO or CTO for business. It helps my current company a great deal to work like that; every company we work with, I can pick up the phone and call a c-level exec. Guess what; we almost never have to.
I have yet to see that listed in a job ad here. I ignore California openings, though, so maybe it's an SFBA thing.
if you/lots of people have call a merchant a lot to cancel, then it doesn't matter. If the bank/credit card companies get lots of calls about one merchant, they might tell the merchant to get it's act together or risk higher fees. "Fix your cancellation process or we'll turn off your ability to charge anyone next month" tends to get more powerful people to take note.
But then what OP said, that people had to be called in makes no sense, right?

There were people there anyway, an attending physician looked at the child, talked to the parents (all doctors want is your anamnesis!) determined that nothing to worry about, maybe keep them in observation, and that's it. There's not even a word about doing an Xray/CT or any kind of imaging to check for internal bleeding.

Probably the "activation" of the Trauma Unit is that when they called 911, the hospital booked them and was ready to receive them.

Being literate in this day and age is essential to being able to explore the treasure trove of information that has been made available to us throughout history. It's a necessity for modern communication, and a tool that enables access into all kinds of knowledge from virtually EVERY domain.

Meanwhile coding IS a way of communication in itself (as is something like math), but it boils down to being a specification for the behavior of an agent. The versatility that it grants you in the job market, or the algorithmic thinking that it cultivates on the day to day just doesn't seem comparable to the advantages of reading. Text is a literal inscription of the languages used to express the entirety of the human experience verbally. Any programming language just can't compete with the value of being able to read general text (the value added just isn't the same).

> in the direction of an industry whose unofficial motto is "move fast and break things"?

At Pivotal we have a different version: "go fast, forever". I believe Facebook updated theirs from "move fast and break things" to "move fast".

> But broken things have much graver consequences when they involve guns and bombs and airplanes.

We aren't to my knowledge participating in weapons systems or flight avionics (and I hope we never get involved in weapons systems).

Our work demonstrates a principle discovered in other industries a while ago: relentless focus on improvement breaks the iron triangle. Fast, affordable, good: pick any three.

But you can't do this by mouthing some slogans, skimming a book and then burping up code as fast as you can type. It takes a genuine and sustained discipline to keep to the core practices: pairing, TDD, CI/CD, IPMs, retrospectives, user-centred design, lean product management, balanced teams etc. But keep to it and the payoff in sustainable pace is remarkable.

I recently noticed that bookdepository (belongs to Amazon btw) has different prices depending on your region. In other words, their "free delivery worldwide" cost is being hidden behind the different prices per country. So, by using VPN and ordering a book let's say from the US (even though you live in Europe) you might be able to save quite some bucks. I saved $15 recently when buying a technical book.

Also, in abebooks.com you can sometimes find textbooks at much lower prices, even if you include the shipping fees compared to amazon/bookdepository. Most likely these textbooks are much cheaper because they are supposed to be sold only in India. Still, some sellers ship them all over the world.

You can find a multitude of free and new books on b-ok.org, but I guess it would be illegal to use in most jurisdictions.

Lastly, wherever I've bought a book from, I always refer to Amazon.com for reviews.

The gradual shifting of awareness is happening regardless and irrespective of the attempts by liberals to further the cause (which is essentially politically driven at this stage).

It allows extensions in the form of Lua scripts. There is an extension [2] that opens up a TCP socket which can be used to modify the environment in any language across the network. There is an accompanying Python library [3] that is quite accessible (I had to use the 2to3 tool to seamlessly convert it to Python 3 because of some dependency problem).

I've been trying to get it to work in WebAssembly (some notes here [4]) and maybe connect Blockly / Scratch to it, but unfortunately the WebAssembly shared memory model is postponed due to the Spectre and Meltdown debacle [5].

I hate Apple's software design, so I'm not a user, but this is a perception based on security researchers and actual activists being targeted by their (or other) governments, not Apple's assertions.
Google has made positive moves, and there is hope with Treble that they can match Apple (they absolutely have the security personnel to do it) but as yet they are not there.
Apple provides this with affordable several year old devices that are cheaper than any remotely secure android device. Those devices will generally continue to get software updates as long as brand new flagship Android devices.
