Is there some sort of evidence for this?

>A meritocracy would never allow harassment of people on the basis of things that have nothing to do with their code - it would take a hard stance against sexism and harassment, it would attempt to communicate in a way that doesn’t drive people away from the project in a biased manner, since those and many other behaviours drive away people who may have merit

I can buy that. But that means that you do believe in merit as a central principle. The new CoC is founded on an ideology that explicitly rejects it.

>If anything, a well-designed code of conduct can create something closer to a real meritocracy, as you don’t drive away contributors on anything but the merit of their contributions.

If that were the purpose of the new Contributor Covenant, I don't think anyone would be complaining.

Perhaps it's survivor bias, but every summer when I visit the in-laws in Ukraine I still see plenty of Ladas on the roads. And many rural roads in Ukraine are hideously bad with deep potholes.

But Porsche was even more ahead of it's time with the first hybrid car in 1900:

The idea is that you are always insured for essentials, so the question is to find out under whom at that time. No idea what specifically determines the insurer for someone entering the country. But coverage will begin back on entry and they will request membership payments for the entire time, even if you did not "use" that coverage.

As for refugees specifically, I'd expect that to be mostly a question of whom they sign on with first. The public insurance has the same rate regardless of provider, so it wouldn't make much of a difference, and governmental support will probably pay that bill anyway.
They actually came in railway boxcars. Roughly 10,000 to 30,000 numbered pieces (depending on the model) with detailed instructions. You would then haul them on horse wagons or motorized wagons to the lot.
I don't think it was, at least not that black and white. If the community really was that split the project would not have survived for 20 years. Surely we would have seen a fork where the involved factions split off.

I think this is a very vocal minority in play here. From my understanding these changes did not come from any of the core contributors but rather from activists. The used divide and rule; if you don't sign off on our political documents you are with "them" and we will let everyone know what a horrible human being you are.
Is this an elaborate joke or something?!
Sure, but this is mostly impractical. You’d need to rely on the phone reading attributes of each photo to determine what to take. Sending all photos this way is tedious - and it requires physical access.

So, technically true, but very low risk imho.

> 2) Compute Delaunay in 3D

How much slower is 3D triangulation compared to 2D? How does it scale with more points? And just as importantly: how complex does the algorithm get when we want to improve performance?

I'm not saying you're wrong - if anything I hope I'm wrong, but I suspect the answers to my questions are "significant", "badly", and "very", which would mean this is not easier/more robust in practice (or it comes at the price of being unacceptably slow).

The reason I think so is Julia's Voronoi/Delaunay package[0]. It implements an algorithm from an extremely dense (to non-astronomers) astronomy paper[1]. Even the name is intimidating: "E pur si muove: Galiliean-invariant cosmological hydrodynamical simulations on a moving mesh"

Page five and six of the paper lists a short history of triangulation algorithms, making it clear that Delaunay triangulation so important for scientific research that many people have given it considerable thought.

Sadly, I cannot really follow the algorithm explained in that paper. It seems to fall for the inevitable "algorithm by PhDs with complex enough math that you need a comparable PhD to being to grok it"-curse (and/or I am just too dumb).

Of course, if someone already did the hard work of implementing really fast and robust 3D Delaunay libraries to steal from... ;)

(the Julia package only implements the 2D algorithm. Sadly)

The "DIY with basic tools" approach of Sears extended well beyond houses. Sears also sold motorcycles [0] that came with a thick manual that gave instructions on how to do everything from assembling the motorcycle from the shipped pieces in the crate to fully disassembling and rebuilding the engine.

They are simple enough that there aren't too many hurdles to get over, and they are always a good conversation starter when you're parked somewhere.

This article was a sad, and infuriating read. The knee-jerk-response part of me would want these pension funds to be set up as an allocation of 'dumb'/passive index funds based on an individual's retirement date to not have to deal with greed on the part of human decision-makers, but there might be catastrophic issues with that too.

Edit/Follow-up: I guess there are two more sane alternatives:

1) Let public-sector workers manage their retirements privately e.g. 401k-style .

2) Let state and municipal public-sector workers opt-in to the federal pension system for federal public sector workers.

Either get LTSB 2015, 2016 or LTSC 2019.

Long-Term Servicing Channel.

...The LTSC servicing model prevents Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB devices from receiving the usual feature updates and provides only quality updates to ensure that device security stays up to date....Microsoft never publishes feature updates through Windows Update on devices that run Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB. Instead, it typically offers new LTSC releases every 2–3 years, and organizations can choose to install them as in-place upgrades or even skip releases over a 10-year life cycle. [0]

Is there a new LTSC release?

Yes. For those customers utilizing the Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC), we have also released Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019. This is the third feature update for Windows 10 for the LTSC, and it has many benefits for all Windows 10 devices, including the special-purpose devices in your environment. [1]

HIV is a retrovirus with an absurdly high mutation rate (4 × 10−3 per base per cell, Cuevas, J. et al, 2015). In comparison: the mutation rate of influenza is about one or two orders of magnitude lower. This means that it is incredibly quick to adapt to any changes.

They are welcome to make it easier to obtain LTSB license. They are not interested in that obviously.

Technically there's not much that is stopping me from using it in trial mode with a rearm up to 90 days, because I use it in a VFIO VM anyway. But you probably wouldn't like that either, would you?

Are you asking for the definition?

Usury (/ˈjuːʒəri/)[1][2] is, as defined today, the practice of making unethical or immoral monetary loans that unfairly enrich the lender. Originally, usury meant interest of any kind. A loan may be considered usurious because of excessive or abusive interest rates or other factors. Historically, in some Christian societies, and in many Islamic societies even today, charging any interest at all would be considered usury. Someone who practices usury can be called a usurer, but a more common term in contemporary English is loan shark. [0]

Fascinating! Some folks really need a reminder of what "inclusiveness" means.
Yes, it's meant as a joking stab at those who seemingly cannot live without having a CoC everywhere. Especially in projects they do not actually participate in. Now watch as this gets blown out of proportion, because this will make some people really, really angry.
Id be very surprised if this stays up actually.
Seems more like them telling people to stop bothering them with divisive CoC bullshit. In a similar vein to NCoC

Which is kind of ridiculous. If your CI breaks because GitHub is down, it means it's not caching dependencies locally, but keeps re-downloading them every time it runs (e.g. every commit), generating tons of waste and unnecessary load on the hosting service.

Or, to put it bluntly, if your CI works like this, it's contributing to climate change.
You should accept the politics if you agree with them. Linux should change its politics if its major contributors agree they should be changed, and at least seven of them - including Linus himself - do.

I'm not sure why this is controversial - the people who can implement the CoC are the same people who generally decide where the project goes, same as always (just ask the people behind GRSecurity).

I'm not sure why some people have this illusion that they somehow have a (moral?) veto power to stop any changes they dislike.
Ha. Needs some tweaks here and there but it’s a good start!
TL;DR: dodgy hedge funds bribe politicians to invest public pension pots with them.

I don't know why they don't just switch to private pensions. In theory public pensions should be less risky because the investment risk is spread between lots of people, but in practice it seems that the risk of management looting the fund is a much bigger concern, and one that you don't have with private pensions.

I tried switching to Linux again for desktop usage since Proton became a thing and I was tired of the weird new licensing model. Installed the new Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and after fiddling around for a week I still couldn't get my sound cards to work properly. The sound quality is just bad and the sound often cuts.

Honestly if I had a little willpower I think I might have been able to get a satisfying result at some point but the effort just wasn't worth it for me. I use my home computer like 3-4hrs a week in the weekend for games and maybe hobby projects if I don't feel like dying. I'd rather just have something that plainly works in a predictable manner, but even that seems to be asking too much nowadays...
Lada 2101's aren't the same as Fiat 124. Russians bought the designs and rights to manufacture and changed them significantly enough.

* Fiat used either OHV or DOHC, Lada used SOHC
* Fiat had rear disk brakes, Lada had drums
* Lada suspension was raised and reinforced to better deal with bad roads
* Lada suspension was also dumbed down. IIRC Lada did not use trailing upper arms

There are more than 800 differences between these two cars. I am not saying that Italians shouldn't be praised, but in reality the Lada is a completely different car.

They were easy to steal as well, most of the time. My parents owned a Lada, there was an attempt to steal it by a group of thieves that specialized in Lada's. They didn't succeed with our car, we found it half a mile down the road with radio on, lights blinking, wipers on and doors open. It had a switch to choose between LPG and gasoline, which had gotten stuck in the middle.

You'll notice that I was reducing to the reduction to Hitler, not reducing to Hitler himself. And this is not such a long stride to take, as the reduction to nazism had already occurred in the quote that I was criticizing.

Kudos for raising awareness, but the EOL schedule for a major version of a popular FOSS programming language doesn't really follow a countdown to the second.

RHEL 6 (and therefore CentOS 6) is supported until 2020, and it ships with PHP 5.3 by default.

RHEL 7 (and therefore CentOS 7) is supported until 2024, and it ships with PHP 5.4 by default.

Ubuntu 16.04, which ships with PHP 7.0 by default, is supported until 2021.

If a big enough security issue is found, even the PHP development team might release a fix notwithstanding the EOL date. Or someone else might write a fix and get it incorporated into the official packages of affected Linux distros.

Of course there's no guarantee that Red Hat and Canonical will be able to fix all security issues in the old versions they distribute, but you can say the same about the PHP team, too. Most of us have to trust the package maintainers of our preferred distros anyway. There's nothing wrong with continuing to use official packages from your distro instead of upgrading to a newer version supplied by a third party.

Having said that, no LTS distro ships with PHP 5.6 by default, so if you're on 5.6 you should definitely upgrade/downgrade to a supported version.
