Are you implying that those who support a CoC are lying or somehow not "strong" enough to oppose it? You've stated elsewhere [0] your objection that people who oppose a CoC are implied to be bigoted. And yet here you are assuming that those who have no problem with a CoC are weak and have bowed to pressure or believing some lie. It works both ways my friend.

> You cannot expect people from Finland, Spain, Turkey, Namibia, or Japan to behave the same way, talk the same way, express themselves the same way. You cannot expect them to just normalize to a cookie-cutter template and move on. That does not work. And yet, that's the expectation, because that's how the US-centric IT world is designed.

This. Right here. The fanatics in the OSS world (and Tech at large) seem to have forgotten that Silicon Valley != The World. This is not 1984 with a standardized society defined by the Big Brother in Menlo Park.

You will find that most of these "cultural/offensive" flame wars in tech are fought because someone forgot to step out of the silicon valley bubble they reside in. Take what happened with Redis. The Master/Slave terminology does not raise much eyebrows outside of USA simply because these parts of the world did not have large scale slavery of black people. And yet some SV people expect to everyone to know American history and culture. They seem to live in a dream world where only the American culture exists and then get violent when the reality hits them.

And before someone comes with a respect and work with my culture shtick, please remember that it is a two way street. We are not under any obligation to respect only your culture and mannerisms. You also have a responsibility to understand other cultures and respect them and understand their mannerisms and way of thinking.

You don't have to use Google services with Android either.

For years I've used an Android phone with no Google account attached - I simply skipped the OOB assistant and then created an account pointing on my company's Exchange, where all my mail/calendaring/contacts were. For maps, I used Sygic, which you can purchase outside Play Store.

Yes, I did lose Google Play, Youtube, Hangouts, but exactly that was the intent - not using Google services. Today, it would be even easier, with the existence F-Droid providing third-party apps.
Most research advances are either:

- Small, incremental, predictable improvements, due to more accurate modelling, tighter tolerances, bigger budgets, etc.

- Big breakthroughs, usually on shoestring budgets.

The largest impact comes from the latter, but they're very rare and unpredictable. We might fund thousands of small projects over decades and see nothing particularly substantial.

Big budget projects are riskier, since we can't fund many of them. Hence these tend to be the first type of project: where we can be quite confident on the capabilities and outcomes, so we'll see some improvement; even though it might not be as promising as the possibilities claimed by umpteen smaller projects.

It's also easier for individual institutions, companies, countries, etc. to fund smaller projects themselves. There's no point wading through the politics required to pool resources into a large international collaboration, if we're just going to divide up those resources between a bunch of small projects anyway ;)
Because the specs are better and cost way less and the support/warranty also costs less. It's a no-brainer.

NASA has not booked or given any indication that they care about BFR specially for humans.

There is a large difference between being the primary costumer of SpaceX and BFR.

If NASA wants to fly Astronauts on BFR, then SpaceX can tell them that they have to pay for human rating. SpaceX development targets that, they just don't go threw all the paper work.

Also, the reality is that this 'human rating' is really not clear at all. NASA has no clue how to human rate anything because nothing was really human rated according to the NASA guidelines. They specially have no idea how to human rate a shit that goes to Mars. Every-time they do a rating it is a new and different process.

The problem with this process is well known in the industry. The reality is SpaceX simply couldn't develop it fully human rated because its not clear what that even means. All they can do is build the best possible ship and see where the dice fall.
What about Apache Beam? Getting started with the Python SDK has been very easy IMHO. Also, you are future proof as you can easily switch runner from Local to Dataflow/Flink/...

Funnily enough I had an older sibling to this line of "nearly" smartphones, the RIZR Z8 which came out a year before the RAZR V9.

It was Symbian powered, had an ARM CPU and a PowerVR GPU - that's a common pairing now but back then was still fairly rare.

Thing it has in common with the RAZR V9 was the lack of headphone jack, but it did come with a pair of stereo bluetooth headphones. Again, Motorola were way ahead of their time in a lot of ways.

I really loved that phone, I grabbed it when my Nokia N81 died (that was a piece of crap like all the Nokia Symbian phones). Had a great battery life and awesome call quality. It was the last phone I had before the first iPhone launched.

I seem to remember the advertisement for it had a link to the Jason Bourne films.

Please read this comment section where I have explained it multiple times.
I recently took a model-based systems engineering course that opened my eyes to some helpful methods.

Use UML, SysML, etc to diagram out your requirements (starting at high level at first, more granular as the system matures). Now build a high-level model of your system design (software and hardware if required). Match parts of your system to the requirements. This lets you see gaps in two directions: requirements you haven't addressed (because they aren't connected as "satisfied by" anywhere on your model), and questions to ask for more detail on a given requirement that could drive the design.

As others have said, there will always be late requirements that change things, so it won't resolve those. It can, however, show stakeholders how much changing a requirement can cost in terms of rework/time by showing how the model has to change to accommodate.

The caveat with this is: the model needs to reflect your actual design, and you need to keep it up to date. The times I've used it so far it has been a useful exercise.
This is typical for taxpayer-funded healthcare, where there is no accountability and doctors know they can do almost whatever they want and there is nothing that you can do. It really hurts to think how much money in taxes you pay and what you get in exchange. I wish there was at least a system where you could remove such doctors from practising.

Zoho is great for two more reasons:

1. Their free offering comes with support for custom domains, which is pretty unique.

Repeal the Linux Foundation's Code of Conduct
Any open source project that gains enough traction to require a proper governance model has adopted a code of conduct. (Although I'd be interested in seeing if there are any notable counter-examples).

Whether or not it is based on the Contributor Covenant is irrelevant -- the language is roughly the same broad brush strokes with which you appear to have ideological differences. Do you take issue with the "Enforcement" section?

I suppose this means you (and anyone else that has a problem with COCs, I guess) will only contribute to small-to-medium open source projects where the maintainer does it as a hobby?

I wish youtube had a way to directly and instantly influence the algorithmically created view.

For example. I like all those electronics, physics and music theory videos, but after weeks of same old same old, I sometimes crave for something completely different.
I would like to be able to see an orthogonal view to what I usually get just to be able to break out of that self reinforcing recommendation loop.

I could search for stuff I am not interested in and watch videos I don't like just to reset the assumption youtube has about the videos I want to watch but that is tedious and probably does not what I want.
There was more Pascal and more assembly language.

Some believe that Macintosh suffered a lot of instability from the switch to C from Pascal.

I don’t see the contradiction. Just look at any of the commit threads onva prohect where opposition to the CoC is discussed. They fly in “developers” who claim they don’t feel included and bully the maintainer to accept it, often straight up violating their own code in the process.

But then as the original agreement says there is no racism against whites people and no sexism against men.

It just feels like a truism. Absent a formal regulation oversight any market is free in these terms. Were not comparing Japanese gold plated apples and trader Joe floor dropping oranges with mould on, were looking for competition in the sense BMW competes with Mercedes and Lexus. Google is giving away some thing of huge value, which is highly reliable spam free email. They "charge" your privacy which is beyond price. If you seek equivalent functionality the software cost alone for the one I regard as comparable is 350 dollars which as a purchase amortised out is $10 a month over three years but I have to spend another $10 a month to host it, and I still have a single point of failure. So price wise fastmail may be enormously good value or expensive depending how you feel: there are not a heap of competent competitive alternates. Maybe five? Sure, that's a competitive market in Herfindahl Hirschman Index maybe? But in practice it's not far off a duopoly. Google or o365, fastmail or proton. It's a pair of competing entities not one market.
If you're using "Ungoogled" Chromium, you're still contributing to Chrome's monopoly and you're still helping Google's dominance of the web.

Chromium may be open source, but its development is controlled by Google. Unless you have Google-like resources available, you won't be able to create a meaningful fork that your less technically savvy users can benefit from.

"Ungoogled" Chromium is a trap. Use another browser. Use Firefox. Use Safari. Heck, use Edge (aka the new IExplorer).

Because lets stop beating around the bush ... Chrome is the new IExplorer 6.
Revolut offers Maestro cards.
Funnily enough I noticed this just the other day.

On https://browserbench.org/Speedometer2.0/ (usual benchmark caveats apply) Chrome scored 68.7 and FF scored 50.

That was on Fedora 28 on a ThinkPad (i7-7700HQ), I was surprised at the delta between the two tbh.
It does not have a custom domain, sadly.
For me the biggest reason not to use Safari was that I couldn't paste screen snippets or images from a clipboard (e.g. Web Whatsapp etc). But after your comment I tried and they seem to have implemented it. Maybe even in Safari 12.

The problem is not in the guys who want to misbehave and hate Code of Conduct because of that. Code of conduct and its vaguely written rules gives certain people a power to abuse. As we know from history, if there is a possibility that power can be abused, it will be.
The phrases like "you need to go and learn some empathy through sensitivity training" are deeply offensive to autistic spectrum individuals, this is where the whole "inclusion" thing falls down on its double standards. Also the whole obsession with skin color and gender as if that would automatically mean that those individuals are more diverse is simply not true, you can't be diverse if you only allow homogeneity of thoughts and ideas (which is the most important part).

P.S: I do understand your concern. But I see that increasingly google is building for its billions outside of EU/US where people share devices and look at security in a totally different way.
IANAL, and so have no opinion on the merits of her article.

However, I have concerns about "topics that are 'too hot to handle'" in the sciences. For example, a recent thread[0] about Hill (2017) An elementary mathematical theory for the variability hypothesis.[1,2,3]

And by the way, there's lots of great discussion in the comments on the Quillette article.[1] And it's interesting that the deleted NYJM paper is online.[2] So what, are there now two different papers at New York J. Math. 23 (2017) that begin at p. 1641? Strange.

edit: Earlier versions of the preprint were apparently more controversial.[4]

Great idea thank you
No OP, perhaps one could think they make such a big thing about security to try to attract lucrative accounts, which they then have backdoors into.

As you can't verify their claims, all you can do is trust. If you want end-to-end encryption you should be gpg encrypting every mail, not relying on the unverifiable word on a provider. Any provider worth its salt will know that, thus wouldn't actually advertise an insecure (as verify can't be done) system as a secure one.

Which is well-earned, they saved it for decades. What fueled their growth before, now is working against them.

> Lots of naive developers are drunk on the false open source android story

If you think leopard can change its spots, it's you who is naive. The arrogance with handling Windows 10 should tell you, that they didn't change; they will abuse their position when they think you have no other option. The "naive developers" as you call them know that and will not do anything to put Microsoft into that position.

> Ms spent at billions in payment (bribes) to developers to build WP apps, yet.

Yes, they did. They thought that their existing partners will help them. Fortunately, they were wrong.

> They have tried and failed multiple times to turn Windows into a store only OS.

Yes, developers giving Microsoft more power over themselves. What could possibly go wrong... It's a good thing they failed.

OS Store is not the thing that keeps Windows used.

> Their OS was unjailbreakable far more so than IOS.

That's another "feature" nobody asked for.

> Windows 10 auto updates is another clue that MS is clueless about data costs. I'll bet, more people left Windows for autoupdating than for being insecure.

That's just a symptom of hubris, mentioned above.
When that happens I just shift-right-click on them (in Firefox). There are add-ons if you don't want to have to do this.
Yes, the problem is there's a significant ""pro-abuse"" movement around who are willing to turn up anywhere these issues are discussed despite not having any previous involvement with the community and argue that they need to be continued to drive away marginalised people and anyone who doesn't have an extremely thick skin.

Thanks. You still didn't answer what is its (unique) selling point though. e.g. Why should I use it over this 'ungoogled Chromium' itself, or say Firefox?
