The traditional MSM used to have a particular perspective. CBS, NBC, CNN, Time all had perspectives. That’s to say saw something from a given POV, but they were not “mouthpieces” masquerading as news, back then. Now they all pretty much take sides rather than just have a particular perspective.

Off-topic, but I really appreciate that they offer "Cookie Settings", giving me the option to disable ad-tracking cookies. Yes, the button is almost invisible gray-on-gray, but it's there. Is this the GDPR showing its usefuless already?
> Security and performance were part of Java and .NET design, hence why they have validation as part of their execution workflow.

Java and CLR bytecode verification is crap because they weren't designed for efficient verification from the start, WASM was: they're expensive, slow, and imprecise. WASM verification gives you much stronger properties, and it's significantly cheaper. It's a much better universal bytecode than any other offerings currently available.
I doubt there's a huge demand among game players for activist-themed entertainment.
I have worked with implementations of an online digital goods marketplace built by someone who was clever but had no notion of formal accounting, ledgers, etc. Their implementation worked, but was only just barely adequate and would have been more useful with a chart of accounts. Prototyping against an API like this would have been an informative exercise for them and probably saved a lot of time.

Edit: spelling
I thought closed source device drivers and restrictions on the distribution were the biggest restriction on the mobile business, rather than control of software and platforms by Google and Apple. Am I wrong?

How many mobile phone platforms are in existence besides iOS, Android and Windows Mobile? Are Jolla and whatever other platforms that exist significant enough to be counted?
Good episode, and not just because my question was asked heh.
Don't fire electron beams at live brains, they don't like it.
This feels like enough, doesn't it? But it's not.

You will also need to sign and timestamp all repository metadata. Otherwise when you learn of bug X and fix it with patch P to produce new package package-V+1 I also learn of bug X, but I ensure my victims don't get told about new package-V+1, they will be told package-V is the latest version and they're now safely up-to-date - but I can exploit them.

If you use TLS I can't meddle with the packages, or the metadata, or anything.

You absolutely can secure everything in your package management system, but it will be a bit trickier than just signing individual packages. Whereas using TLS is enough.

Back in 1995 when anonymous FTP distribution was commonplace, signing packages made a whole lot more sense than trying to get all your mirrors to update to HTTPS. In 2018 this is not so true.
So this is only interesting for people who are from somewhere that is low on this list?

Fighting for better trade terms with China arguably makes good sense for the USA.

On the other hand, picking trade fights with close allies & major partners like Canada and the EU is absurd.
> Much more contrast.

I have to say the satellite imagery on Mapy.cz lacks sharpness in comparison to Google Maps' satellite view. Google's view actually looks over-processed, which I think would lend it greater acuity when zoomed out. They look like they hold a comparable level of detail, just Mapy.cz could use a photoshop massage.

Also, Google Maps seems to have, at least from the small area I'm zoomed in at from your links, better location labels. ie: https://i.imgur.com/yUOlWO0.jpg

The non-satellite view I do like better on Mapy.cz, though -- it looks significantly more readable as far as structures and streets go, at every zoom level. More useful, maybe, more like a map ought to be.
> This has been the secret in my experience. Pay for Prime, and only buy Prime items. For me the convenience is worth it, even though I know I’m feeding directly into what Amazon wants; to not fix their massive counterfeit problem.

That won't really help. There are prime-eligible counterfeits shipped from Amazon's warehouses due to the Fulfilled by Amazon program. Even buying from a known trustworthy seller is not enough, as Amazon commingles FBA/Prime-eligible inventory from multiple sellers of the same item:

That is called PWA.

Electron apps are as native as PWAs, with the caveat that they bring a 300 MB runtime alongside with them.

I bet there are still more Swing applications in production than VSCode users.

That doesn't make JAR a de facto packing format.
Another possibility is that the change was not tested at all or very minimally tested -- and they would not want to admit to that publicly.
> Secondly, the Snowden leaks were one of the most important events in modern history, and you're on here using them as a cheap way to push your own agenda. Thirdly, RMS hasn't been an active emacs developer for quite awhile, but you're still trying to criticize him.

I don't see where you got any of that. I read point #11 as citing RMS in his capacity as an authority on GNU goals and principles, a capacity in which he still contributes guidance to Emacs and other GNU projects.

Maybe there's some context missing. GNU is an unapologetically political project; decisions are meant to be made not solely in pursuit of some narrow definition of technical superiority or correctness, but being mindful of their effects on the free software movement and human societies in general. From that perspective, it's completely reasonable to be surprised if a GNU project appears to be out of alignment with a major sociopolitical concern of RMS. For example, if GCC 9.0 were released under the original BSD license, people would be surprised and concerned for fundamentally similar reasons.
This was discussed in the article. The financial backer for the expedition died from an infected mosquito bite but nothing else went wrong.

One important thing people miss is that majority of US exports are commodities. Take soybeans for example. Global soybean market has supply and demand balanced. US exports largely to China and Brazil to Europe. Now, due to tariffs China has started buying from Brazil leading to spike in Brazilian soybean and fall of US soybean price. Supply gets re-routed and market comes back to normal. China on the other hand exports finished goods which can't be re-routed. The larger players in the market know this - the Shanghai index is at a 3 year low which the Dow is at an all time high.

It's a bit of a double-edged sword.

That same force is what protects you from random people deciding to just take your property.

Imagine those boundaries as the lines a government says "This is as far as I can enforce certain rules".

Now, maybe it should be a little more easy to cross, but you also have the problems of rules of different areas being incompatible. Some things allowed in one country are not allowed in another. Certain standards practiced by one country aren't practiced by another. Etc. You also have ecological concerns and what not. Invasive species can devastate local wildlife.

True, animals do move where they want to, but they are limited by what they can naturally reach. Humans have the ability to go just about anywhere and transport anything with them.
to be honest if i was a horrible person I'd develop a macOS version of the spyware first on the assumption that anyone playing on a mac is probably more wealthy (mac user and goes through the extra effort of playing games on macOS? yeah that's probably someone with a lot of money and technical knowledge) and thus a more valuable target for data harvesting and who knows what other purposes....
I'm starting a remote position on Monday, and my wife and I have had a similar conversation. I've portrayed it in similar ways: when I'm working, it should be the same as if I were still at my downtown office; but I can teleport home instantly if there is a true emergency.
I have to agree with you... but in a...an _expanded_ sort of way. I use Epsilon and you can do anything except maybe make an Omelet. That comes out in the next version. lol. No, seriously: Epsilon is an either/or/both kind of app. It is happy letting you use Markdown, or _just_ as happy if you decide on CommonMark (which is like Github-flavored Markdown and Multi-Markdown combined, then made easier to use than either of those). It has FontAwesome Icons, Tags, Indexing, YAML, MathJax, and CSS. You can find it on G+ if you are curious but not sure if you are interested in a full commit just yet. I don't even work for or have any vested interest in Epsilon Notes. I just Love it that much. Yeah Markdown IS here to stay. It's crazy-easy to learn and even more so on the fun and useful side of things. Ciao, and Happy Coding!

These articles on Chinese trade and barriers often mention forced technology transfer and IP theft. Can someone more knowledgeable than me explain the reality of this? It seems that it is such a large imposition I’m surprised anyone does business in China when you know 10-15 years later they will have copied your business.
I accept crypto on my shed business website. I can take the crypto to my lumber yard and buy materials.

I would argue the concepts of citizenship and passports, along with their Westphalian corollaries of national sovereignty and diplomacy, are a very modern idea that, for the most part, protects people inside of nations from violence, and gives them the stability they need to live and thrive. The whole notion of 'freedom' requires a degree of police protection which doesn't exist, for the time being, without clearly defined national boundaries.

The hypothetical you describe, of free-moving people and nations, was the reality for most of human history. This was the era of marauding bands, violent nomadic tribes which pillaged, burned, murdered and raped, not to mention famine and other constant disruptions to daily life. On your way to the French forest you would be murdered by a highwayman.

It would certainly be ideal if all nations of the world were available to choose from for all people in a sort of geopolitical marketplace, but that would of course require all nations of the world to have identical values which allowed for the sort of cultural and racial mixing which would surely follow, and I think you'd struggle to find any country that's 100% OK with that.
I think you're right but I'd phrase it as the military typically has very specific needs and constraints which helps design and sometimes those needs overlap with civilian life.
It's an accounting environment, and every system that provides goods and/or services needs to record the transactions in an accounting system. You can either use an existing accounting system such as Quickbooks, Freshbooks, Microsoft Dynamics, but then you're writing a document to those services rather than the underlying accounts forcing you to define the sales document's properties in the accounting system. In this case you should be able to keep your documents (sales invoice/credit memo) internal to your application, and the underlying account structure. In addition using Amatino should let you create accounting schedules in your application based off the ledgers. I guess you would use Amatino where you want more control over your accounting system, and I would imagine it costs less than the full-blown commercial offerings.
This sub-thread reminds me of the monolith vs microservices kernel discussion I see a lot here. Doesn't Linux benefit from specialized pieces being piped together at will?
For the EU, the definition in the GDPR should cover this. From Article 4(1):

> ‘personal data’ means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’); an
identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an
identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors
specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person;
That’s already the definition used in many contexts.
yes but Go doesn't plan to do that, they feel their GC is better.

You can also use C or Rust and avoid GC altogether. Rust produces very small WASMs
Pool swimming is one of the least likely triggers for exercise-induced asthma. The air above the surface of a pool tends to be warm with very high humidity, which is the ideal air for an asthmatic.

If a person gets that feeling after any exercise, yes, it's not a bad idea to get checked for asthma. But if it only happens after swimming, I would think it much more likely that the issue is related to that pool.

Chlorine allergy is also a possibility, if the person experiences symptoms in pools that don't occur elsewhere.
Pretty unhappy Cmder user here.

Sooo many bugs. Currently have dash.exe crashes on start-up, fatal race conditions generating certain types of error output, performance becomes unusable in git folders with lots of files because of how it updates the auto-text in the prompt and it has the configuration/settings from hell but they just blame ConEmu.

I just want a tabbed console that will remember the tab locations and command history between sessions. This would seem obvious thing but no.
Yeah, that most probably reflects my bias. Being in academia myself, I have a hard time thinking of good reasons to work for the military vs virtually any civil application.
Also, I don't have 30 years of internet experience, so maybe it'll just take some more time for me to get tired of discussing this :)

The progressive supremacist agenda marches on. No doubt that spending by their compatriots will be quietly swept under the rug, whereas opponents of those cadres' agendas will be shone under a bright light and labelled "dark."
I really agree with this. As hysterics increase, so does the risk over-correction - in the form of overreaching censorship, draconian laws, etc.

I can't help but think that we ought to bring philosophy, formal logic, reasoning, and rhetoric courses down from select majors in higher education, and into primary education. And it ought to start young.
The key phrase in "grab a bike, ride to some isolated forest in France" being "in France". Shouldn't French citizens, through their laws and officials get to choose who gets to grab a bike and live in the french forests?

I'm probably more to the left as far as national borders are concerned compared to the average, but i don't see how your premise works. The French never signed a contract with you about living in a french forest (and i assume by your mention of a contract that you don't believe all ownership is theft), so why should you have the right to be there.
Are you implying this somehow makes it ok?
Microsoft had a plethora of languages targeting MSIL when .NET was released.
I would interpret parent’s “open” as “non depending on birth”. As in people can freely apply to live anywhere with readonable amount of bureaucracy.

I think we have that but in one direction only: if a highly educated resident of a wealthy country wants to move somewhere else it will usually be easy. The farther we move from that spot, the harder it goes: it might require ungodly amounts of administrative work, enough bribing money, or demonstrably unique skills.

I agree with you that it brings up a lot of things to consider.
I'm not at all a fan of tariffs, but another issue, in the consumer space anyway, is shipping costs - It can be cheaper to ship stuff from china than from the next state.

The whole issue of 'fair trade' is rather complex, as all actors attempt to skew the playing field to their benefit, as invisibly as possible. China appears to be quite good at the game.
This is very good advice.

Id highlight the part of asking a person who is from or grew up in the culture as opposed to an expat with a only few years experience (who you'll likely find easier to meet once there).
This makes sense, I use Powershell all the time, have loads of PS modules installed and it opens pretty much instantly.

If I understand correctly, it's not that the database's licence prohibits commercial use, it's just that you're expected to host it yourself, right?

This could calm the inevitable social unrest once the massive wealth inequality in the West (particularly) the US becomes more apparent to people.
Of course China is playing unfairly. Not many people disagree.

The argument has been that the West should fight China as a unified bloc as opposed to the unilateral tariffs being imposed. It makes no sense to alienate Canada, the EU, Japan, and South Korea when confronting China. All of those countries (and the EU) have serious grievances and would have provided the US additional leverage.

The current approach is rooted in showmanship rather than strategy. It’s meant to provide a spectacle.
Wow, how refreshing. An objective relation on the trade tensions between the US and China. I am very disappointed by NPRs marketplace -- their correspondence is essentially like listening to teenage gossip reveling in using the term 'trade war' instead of treating the topic with the respect that it deserves.
No - what part of my post are you interpreting like that? I'm happy to edit if I'm giving the wrong impression. I just want to know how worried I need to be about my own gaming PC at the moment.
it likely have a different vendor with the exact same issues, but will take longer to be noticed.

there is absolutely no game on steam without DRM and anti-cheat rootkits. none. zero. All games there have either or. including steam itself. It's all a matter of how far they go.
This is of a piece with Microsoft's GitHub acquisition -- seems to be part of a program to win developer mindshare. And it's working; I was impressed by this post, both tone and technical content. Windows having never really been suitable for the server, and rapidly losing its grip on the home user, it seems totally sensible to push the "windows is a good platform for people doing serious work" angle. It's all Windows has left.
Benchmarks regarding meaningful impact in production code?

Trump's not "picking fights", he's getting multiple bids. The American economy is open for business to those willing to give a better deal.

It is literally the same concept as attempting to get as many offers when you sell a house so you can sell to the highest bidder.
I'd guess mindshare, ecosystem. Creating add-ons for VS Code is a cake walk.

I've attempted plugins for both Eclipse and IntelliJ. Multiple times. Defeat. I'm just not smart or stubborn enough to make something shippable.

No one hates JavaScript more than me (day gig is all nodejs). And I'm surprised to hear myself say that VS Code's superior design far outweighs the liability of using JavaScript. Especially the Language Server Protocol, which is a game changer.

I'll probably let my IntelliJ Ultimate subscription expire this year. Too bad. I really like Jetbrains.
Yeah, I hate Trump, but it does seem true that the US' trade relationship with China is rather unfair with respect to tariffs, IP protection, and investment/subsidiary requirements.

Are you claiming that it's perfectly reasonable to consider the entire solar system basically as 'inside the sun'?

That's a very non-standard usage.
I think you only need to look at products available in the market to realize that this is indeed a thing.
I'm thoroughly confused by the problem you see. You are positing a case where the richest people would feel like they can't speak up? I'm more concerned with people who aren't even affected by the issues (perhaps because they don't live in the nation state) having undue influence on the outcome.
Seems risky for wealthy people. I can't imagine they would want to marry someone they don't trust. Imagine the divorce settlement and the potential for blackmail. Yikes
You are comparing some MVC frameworks that brings a lot of functionalities with basically a runtime that does nothing on its own. Compare functionalities AND weight instead, otherwise it makes little sense.

That is a great piece of advice. I've been programming for the web for a long time now, and have never heard it described so simply.
That would be a great start.

One of the ways malicious people circumvent that is to leverage the scripting that many of the games support. I have dug into many games that use LUA scripting and have appalling security practices. The worse offender is Garry's Mod. Trivial to dox players and fairly trivial in some cases to take over the players machines.
