No, you did not explicitly mention it, but since you're stating that right-wing rhetoric (alex jones) "doesn't count" as outrage culture since the fans and critics take him seriously, there seems to be an unspoken implication that "actual" outrage culture (most often attributed to the left) does not similarly fall under the category of being taken seriously.

I didn't want to make assumptions though so I asked.
I completely understand. But I would posit that that comment is valid as a technically specific point with intent to put people's emotional responses into perspective.

I think it's obvious that everyone is offensive to some non-zero count of people. Even if that is challenged, there is strong precedence that your current words can be read as ruinously offensive under currently-unknown future social sensitivities, which could retroactively punish you (assuming a continued extrapolation of punishable offensiveness from the current state).

In that, the nature of "being offensive" in and of itself is specifically not a valid distinguisher as it's always true. It's only when the level of offensiveness reaches some agreeable flash point where society acts in agreement that something is "too offensive" (as opposed to simply a binary "offensive"). But since everybody is "offensive" to some non-zero amount as a binary predicate, that word by itself becomes purely selective enforcement with everybody guilty by default.

The statement of "Something is always offensive" is well founded and speaking to a real problem, but yes it is unfortunate that its wording is very similar to defensive, reactionary, relativistic dismissal. In practice, "being offensive" is not actually that which is railed against; it is "agreeably too offensive" (or simply "antagonistic" which is a separate concept) that is the actual pursued distinguisher, while the former phrase is overly broad to a fault and is used in that way to cause real damages.

--

Having said all that, I wholeheartedly agree that all of the above can come across as stuffy, pedantic, and disconnected; and that people obviously tend to use "offensive" to mean "agreeably too offensive". HOWEVER, all of this is critically important when dealing with situations that have high stakes real world implications, especially when specifically codified terms of service, policy, or legislation are involved where the "letter of the law" rules.

AMD has been undervalued for years due to short sellers. They release a better than expected earnings report and the stock goes down 10 percent. It's always been the whipping boy on Wall Street. But a great stock to profit from on a very cyclical basis when those shorts go nowhere.

What they meant was that the LGPL is perfectly fine to use for commercial use, but you have to a) provide the source for just the library when requested (easy enough: provide a link), and b) allow for the program to run using a different or modified version of the LGPL library that's used.

That means you can dynamically link QT, and your program doesn't have to be (L)GPL. No commercial license required.
The daunting aftermath of releasing your dream game
Syncthing is a great piece of software. I configured it on three of my machines in March and I've had zero issues since. In fact, it has worked so well that I don't even think about it.

One of the machines even runs an old version found in Debian stable repos, but there has been no issues syncing with machines running newer versions.

Only downside for me is that there's no iOS client.
I phrased the last sentence poorly. I've changed it.
Really? How many people outside of tech honestly understand that Google is 90% advertising and 10% "other" instead of more like 50% search company and 50% "other" like they tried to pretend to be for so long? Go ask your grandma what google does.

Hi, I was a former Awesomium user (.NET bindings) and i think you did a good job, then told everyone to wait for the next version (2 years?) and.. there comes Ultralight which is a completely different beast.
It can be impressive for people who need an embedded html front-end, but who wants to embed a real browser is left with CEF.. which is really cumbersome.

I think you should open source Awesomium also, allowing contributors to maintain it.
It’s not a trick question. It’s just writing a loop any CS graduate or equivalent autodidact should have absolutely no problem with.

We didn’t require any specific time or space complexity. If the candidate whipped out a suboptimal solution quickly and correctly and time permitted we might ask them about that though and how it might be improved. The purpose of the question is not to see if the candidate has memorized the answer or sees a trick, it’s so they can demonstrate basic proficiency and systematic reasoning.
I'd like to see one of these based on servo.
>> "OK, now that you've got the deal, how are you going to ensure the counterpart follows through?"

As they say, you can’t squeeze blood [orange juice] from a stone.

If the counterpart is too incompetent to follow through no amount of negotiation will help.

In particular, having access to technical capabilities in your organization is not the same thing as being a competent project manager. You should interview the person that will be managing your project, and that interview will invariably involve opaque games (or small pilot projects, which are almost the same thing).

Note that while in principle a compiler for the lower-level APIs/languages should be simpler, these are still pretty complex compilers (and given the underlying architecture changes quite often they don't necessarily end up eventually stable, given the architecture-specific code frequently becomes unmaintained).

Electron is MIT. Ultralight is proprietary. Electron always free to use even on comercial, ultralight only for small projects.
I do agree that there's one objective physical reality that's accessible to us. There is quantum level stuff, where indeterminacy is an issue. But at the macroscopic level, that's pretty much averaged out. Except maybe entanglement.

But anyway, as you say, complex statements typically involve multiple facts, assumptions, inferences, conclusions and speculation. And yes, we have language for that.

The problem, though, is that people often express complex statements in simple language. They gloss over complexity, and hide assumptions, inferences, speculation, etc. So it's easy to have multiple stories claiming to be true. And it takes considerable work to decompose them, and determine which best fits the facts.
I think that's setting a very unreasonable standard as the exact same could be said of election workers in e.g. a paper balloting system. Votes get miscounted, votes go missing, a new box of 'votes' is added into the mix, etc.

Electronic systems can provide a much better level of security than this through not only all the regular security techniques you'd apply to regular workers (no individual access, surveillance, etc) but also a wide array of electronic means including logging, 'ballot' validation, and much more. And you can also burn everything including the operating system and election software onto a non-flashable ROM meaning software modifications become all but impossible, and even if somehow achieved, would be trivial to detect.
And causes the parents to have to move several times, to the point where they can't even visit their child's grave anymore.
While I love Mac n cheese, and your menu sounds delicious - I'll tell you why I will most likely never eat at your place: price.

While there are plenty of people who will, and you will certainly be successful - I just have "price fatigue" where one can't seemingly even feed themselves for an affordable rate.

The cost of food is too high.

Let's assume the average cost of a meal from your place is $15 as is generally what appears to be the average cost of a meal anywhere, eating anywhere is just so expensive.

Even a "meal" from McDonald's in a really crappy location such as 24th and mission in SF is $11.

I'm sure people will always pay for the convenience, I just can't justify paying premium prices like $15 for Mac n cheese.

I have three kids.

Now imagine a family where each in the family can't be together for, say, lunch.

Each parent needs to eat, and each child needs to eat.

If all members of the family were to go out and need to buy lunch - even if it were $10 per lunch and the family had to buy 4 lunches twice a week....

So, I just think pricing for food these days, across the board, is unsustainable.
That's a interesting proposition. My first thought was "I'd have no problem shutting one off" but after imagining a bot actually doing it I realized I probably would hesitate.

But not for long. I'd still shut it off and not think much about it afterwards. Being a programmer might make that a lot easier for me than many of those who are not though.

But I may still be an exception not because I code, but because I don't really like the concept of "humanoid robots". They don't "creep me out", it's simply that just the idea of interacting with them like they are "human" makes me feel like a dolt.
Yeah and the people who think they have good judgement often have the worst judgement.
>Actually, one TCP connection all by itself will do fine.

That depends on your metric. It isn't necessarily true if you're targeting stable latency for whatever reason.
Paper can easily get 'lost' or 'replaced.'

The advantage of paper is it's bulky so it's hard to swap out if people from multiple parties and observers etc are paying attention.

What I was saying is that it's amazing Python 3 failed to gain any significant traction in 4 years. I personally have been using Python 3 since ~2010 but am apparently in a tiny minority on that.
I am also not optimistic, but all of those are also failings of traditional voting methods. So one could offer the standard defense of self-driving cars, "it doesn't need to be perfect, as long as it's better" (but it may never be better...)
"If they would do something I don't like, I would just never upgrade anymore and be done with it." -- That sounds like a good strategy but in my experience, it never works because your technology environment is not a vacuum (I assume). At some point you'll need an upgrade for security, compatibility, etc.

Agree that accepting the POSIX limitations is healthy if doing so works for the project; disagree with the prescriptive tone.

There are lots of things people "should" do, and lots of reasons why they don't; sometimes, they're good ones. So how's this for a "should"?

Prescriptive advisors should be very cognizant of the dangers caused by people following such advice without understanding why they are doing so. (Hint: the people who need such advice usually don't understand it.) Additionally, such advisors should accept responsibility when those they give advice to do really weird things while trying to follow it.

"With the growth of the towns, technics became bourgeois. The successor of those Gothic monks was the cultured lay inventor, the expert priest of the machine. Finally, with the coming of rationalism, the belief in technics almost becomes a materialistic religion. Technics is eternal and immortal like God the Father, it delivers mankind like God the Son, and it illumines us like God the Holy Ghost. And its worshiper is the progress-philistine of the modem age which runs from Lamettrie to Lenin."

Somehow we manage to secure electronic banking despite possibly corrupt bank tellers having unmonitored access to the ATMs. I’m sure of the money were there we could secure voting the same way.
The goal is to maintain DOF and field of view; if you crop to the same field of view, and the entrance pupils are the same size, then you have the same DOF.

100mm at f/32 is the same as 50mm at f/8 only if you don't crop 50mm by 2x.

These are both excellent lenses, and at f/32 and f/16, optical quality basically ceases to matter.

The claims that the left is vulnerable are entirety founded on this imagery. The article asks me to be afraid of a lot of things without bothering to explain why they are bad, so my reaction is not exactly disagreement but declining to be convinced.

Seriously. No company this large can justify supporting a fringe operating system to their investors and shareholders. In a perfect world they would open source what they did to support it so others could pick up the work and integrate it into other products. Oh well.

Your source is itself notorious for not being what it claims to be. I would argue that any website that claims to be a fact checker (whether left or right politically) is automatically less trusted, since their entire raison d'etre is to claim the right to declare whether others are biased or not. The reality is that everyone is biased. Claiming to not be so means starting from a false premise.
I'm stating that the reaction to Alex Jones is what doesn't count as outrage culture, specifically because people take him seriously. You could find the same phenomena at work on the other side of the spectrum but I'm lazy and CBA to equivocate.

But my thesis is literally that once people take it seriously, it no longer becomes outrage culture, which is a politically neutral statement. Notwithstanding the implicit politically biased undertones which make "unspoken implications" difficult to avoid.
I've struggled with the same thing. I don't think there any legal issue, but I'd like to know what people say.
We also accept entirely different transparency for ATM transactions, can easily correct issues afterwards and given that it's about monetary damage, it can be insured. ATMs are regularly modified to steal information, and it is primarily fixed be insurance and chargeback mechanisms, the voting-equivalents of which are difficult.
It doesn't support symbolic links at all, deal breaker for me. I can't afford to start duplicating content just because it can't follow a symlink.
I am talking about what causes the conflict and frustration. That is based on perception and emotion. It has nothing to do with assigning blame or responsbilitiy in a collision.
> How about taking a non interventionist policy?

Well yea, that is what the parent comment explicitly advocates.

The problem is that US voters are insulated from the horrifying effects of war and thus are not inclined to avoid it.

Thus, the parent advocates achieving non-interventionist policy by giving Americans voters consequences through the draft.

So kind of roundabout, but such is often the only viable way in politics.

Sometimes, in software, things are hard because they're still research problems. Solving those problems means paying Ph.D.s to try to make progress on them, with no guarantee of results. If you had guarantees of results, it wouldn't be research, would it? Of course not.

Since most businesses aren't going to allocate money for grants, and since firing someone for negative results still doesn't get you your money back or a return on your investment, trying to negotiate with a client whose problem involves a fundamental breakthrough in computer vision, or speech recognition, or attempting to do what Theranos promised isn't going to be fruitful, because success in that field isn't a matter of money. It's a matter of, more than anything else, luck, in getting the right minds in the right context to make the right advances, assuming the advances are even possible.

People die of something. It costs no matter what that is. So there's some extra cost since they're dying sooner (maybe?) It's more complicated than 'Hospital costs!' since those are pretty unavoidable no matter how you die?

That's a vague assertion that can apply to anything.

Syncthing can ignore directories/patterns at the local level.

And this notion somehow doesn't apply to your Dropbox credentials or shared folders? Furthermore, Dropbox has access to your data - with Syncthing that's limited only to the synchronized devices.

Another non-sequitur. Either tool can be part of a backup solution.

Electronic banking is defrauded on a regular basis, including at the endpoint using jackpot schemes and more. It’s acceptable for banking given the amounts stolen are ultimately trivial, but not for voting.

Vulkan is way better. It's not lower level per se, just a way better abstraction for how modern GPU hardware works as opposed to the mid/late 90s hardware that OpenGL still targets at it's core.

The biggest win is how explicit it is so you won't stutter for things like shader recompiles like you do in OpenGL (I'll give you a hint, most of the time the shader isn't fully compiled by the time glLink returns). Also, Vulkan's emphasis on immutable objects really tickles my fancy in terms of programming hygiene.
