That's a rather liberal definition of the word. From brittanica, "Genocide: the deliberate and systematic destruction of a group of people because of their ethnicity, nationality, religion, or race."

I don't think "dismantling of an ethnic identity" at all fits into "deliberate and systematic destruction of a group of people" unless you weaken "destruction" to mean almost nothing.

From wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genocide), "it has been applied to the Holocaust, and many other mass killings including the genocide of indigenous peoples in the Americas, the Armenian Genocide, the Greek genocide, the Assyrian genocide, the Serbian genocide, the Holodomor, the Indonesian genocide,[6] the Guatemalan genocide, the 1971 Bangladesh genocide, the Cambodian genocide, and after 1980 the Bosnian genocide, the Kurdish genocide, the Darfur genocide, and the Rwandan genocide." All of those examples are actual killings of people, not this new age definition of changing people's opinions about things.

Vector magic runs perfectly fine and does a great job even in high Res photos on Win 10. About 90 seconds for 2048x1433 image with some intricate details at high quality setting (as compared to offered medium and low quality settings) with unlimited colours.

But results are still pretty nice even at low quality setting with limited colour palette. Hardly takes 15 secs.
No not necessarily, and if it is, it's bad practice.

Client-side js will always be readable, even if you obfuscate it, you can't trust it to never being decompiled.

But server-side js never has to reach the client, it can be used to dynamically generate basically anything.
No, I don't have to accept that, because I already know from my undergraduate physics that light doesn't travel at c in a medium.

Malthus considered only one very narrow facet of the results of population growth. There are others - most significantly, ecosystem degradation and eventual collapse - that will impact humanity.

So it is vital to consider these factors too, rather than recklessly rejecting the spirit of the argument.

You mean "CLOCK_MONOTONIC", not "CLOCK_MONATONIC". (I'm guessing this is a misspelling, not a typo, since it appeared twice.)

And the simple answer is that if time stops then CLOCK_MONOTONIC always returns the same time. This is perfectly fine given correct software; CLOCK_MONOTONIC is guaranteed to not go backwards but it it not guaranteed to always go forward. One could imagine for example a system with a very inaccurate clock where CLOCK_MONOTONIC simply counts days, for example.
Can you please recommend an introductory Jin Yong book or two? I'm a Western Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest fan and this sounds right up my alley. (Thanks SBS Cult Movie nights). I've read and enjoyed The Water Margin fwiw.
Oh please. Smoking marijuana is illegal in every part of the US but every so-called "defender of free speech" that I've met would be totally up in arms about a host shutting down a site for being involved in that.

While I am not defending China whatsoever in this specific case it’s worth noting that premise is highly debatable — essentially the definition of a serious question.

The article clearly states:

"While LIGO has gained a (not entirely undeserved) reputation for excessive secrecy, Shoemaker says the collaboration has spent a great deal of time interacting with Jackson and his group over the last two years to improve their understanding of LIGO's methods, including extended visits to the Niels Bohr Institute and inviting Jackson et al. to discuss the issue in depth in teleconferences with LIGO team members. So if LIGO's response whenever that drum begins banging anew sometimes comes off as a bit exasperated, there's a very good reason for it."

I think you are overlooking into this, there is no hostility whatsoever.

Agree this usage is odd. My guess is that they are used to describing people by their institutions: writing things like "Caltech scientists showed..." etc. is very common in such articles, to save readers from having to keep the names straight. And of course this identifier is uncontroversial the day after they got hired.

But who counts as Danish is obviously a thornier question. I don't know that "nationality we identify with" captures it, as it's mostly about what others think of the person. It doesn't line up perfectly with having been issued a passport either. And being Danish is also different to being American...

This applies to sub-national identities too: Wasn't the old-time saying (something like) that you could become a New Yorker in 6 months, but to come from Boston took generations?

There are 40 enemy combatants held at Guantanamo. They have public legal representation and visitation rights.

China has removed all human rights for over ten million Uyghur Muslims. Including freedom of movement, freedom of religion, tight restrictions on behavior, tracking of all communication and movement, restrictions on who you can meet or talk to, tracking of all Urghar family members in China or abroad, non-existent freedoms around speech and expression, total lockdown on press investigation or discussion, forced re-education.

And then for at least a million Uyghur Muslims, they're outright physically and mentally torturing them in camps through forced programs to destroy their culture and beliefs.

Please enlighten me as to how that compares to what the US is currently doing with Guantanamo. I believe the detainment facility at Guantanamo should not exist and should have never existed. There's an important on-going debate there. There's no reasonable comparison to be had between Guantanamo and Xinjiang, whether in scale, intent, or context.

What if you reversed this question, and asked it from the Uyghar perspective.

What do you think the solution to the china/ccp problem is? What do you do when you're ruled by a country that hates your language and religion, actively tries to extinguish your culture and frequently resorts to violence in order achieve this goal?

Should they leave them to it? Allow them to imprison millions of your people and end your culture?

I'd genuinely like to know what people think the alternative is to near-fascist rule?

In conflict, it's always easiest to ask your questions in a way that leaves no alternative but bloodshed, a way that justifies anything.

The AGPL is a great license for free software development. It is also great to be coupled with a proprietary license, something that does no often make sense with other licenses.
I'm probably going to get a lot of flak for this, but here's an opinion supporting the MongoDB license. Two things:

1. MongoDB has the right to do whatever they like

------------------------------------------------------

The creator of a product:

1. Has a rational interest in maximizing their returns

2. Owns all the rights to their products (barring existing IP restrictions)

And if they choose to open source their code:

3. it is of their own prerogative

4. without any obligation to do so.

Given 1, and 2, if they open source their code, they're an awesome person because they're revealing some portion of their secret business logic to the public. With that, they are entitled to whatever conditions they put on their code. That includes CLA's regardless of how much potential contributors will protest.

It doesn't matter how "against the spirit of open source" a CLA, or an overly radical copy-left license is. The creator of the product will always have an obligation to their own interests first, and since they're already sacrificing trade secrets by revealing their software source (something they were never obligated to), they can honestly do whatever they'd like.

And this includes ensuring that everyone using their software open-sources all forks of their software. Heck, even open-sources everything they use in support of their software.

Let's face it, if their software just weren't that good, no one would use it.

2. This License Means More Open Source Code

----------------------------------------------------

If the outside world wants more open source code, I don't see why they'd giving MongoDB any flak for this. All this license will do is result in more open-source code. After all, isn't that the point all along?

Or are zealous demands for open-source code only valid while it's all about a single popular product by a big company (MongoDB), and not when smaller software components by smaller companies (billing, hosting scripts by SaaS providers)?

> The founder is also pushing for hard deadlines however development is slow because this clusterfuck of a database and architecture is just bonkers lmao

I have run across many a CTO, CEO and founder who had a timeline that would have been reasonable in another place, with better architecture or even a slight twist on what they suggest.

I would take this as an opportunity to learn to speak the language of management. If you can say that with better code things would be "faster" then you have a case to be made, and you should make it. Ask your founder out to coffee, most managers and executives are approachable. Keep in mind that your pitch should be soft. Dont say "our system sucks" say that your timelines would have been more easily achieved in past systems.

The best one off insight I can give you to management thinking is to suggest you read the orange juice test and make sure what ever your going to say is couched in that.

As for your coworker with the accent and the mic, say something! "I don't think I would be having so much trouble with your accent if the audio quality was better, do you have a different mic to try...". You would be surprised how many folks have these sorts of issues and DONT know it because no one says something.
The BBC article and wikipedia entry hint to Jin Yong going to Hong Kong (was this exile?) and some of his publications were initially banned in mainland China and Taiwan. So it seems he was not well liked by the elite/party at first.

Question: When did attitudes toward him change in mainland China? Immediately at the end of the cultural revolution? Am I getting this all wrong?
Never thought about it but you’re right.
Not a book, and not a "conspiracy" theory, but there is an audacious theory that Bach's wife wrote the suites for unaccompanied cello.

Shakespeare authorship is a bit of a special case as there is a peculiar lack of evidence, as opposed to a mass of evidence that has to be explained away with a "conspiracy", or an expected lack of evidence, as in the case of Bach: most of his works were neither published during his life nor found in a manuscript with his handwriting.
I often grumble at the lack of usability of the directory hierarchy. Even though I grew up with directories and the FHS. To often I know what file I want but have to navigate an entire filesystem. This is especially true for non native open source Linux tools on macOS. They don't use the native file browser (which is not without its faults either) and often force you to start from root instead of a logical place like your home.

There is really no use to have all files and folders on your fs available for opening or saving in most apps. Often you just need the most recent modified file or only files of a certain type. And there are really not a lot of places it makes sense to save files to outside of your home folder and personal project layout.
"Credential stuffing" as I've heard it used refers to taking username/password combos from one breached site and trying them in other sites.

So for example LinkedIn has a breach, which reveals to evildoers that user 'johnsmith@example.com' uses the password 'smith1234' then they test that username and password in Amazon, Netflix, Steam and so on.

They only make one attempt per account, because they only have one leaked password per account. Hence, throttling per account isn't an option.

I am not, personally, but I did a bit of a brief Google so I'll speak to the limited knowledge I have here.

First of all, to be frank, I fear a little bit of cultural appropriation (I also fear the HN comments that are going to result from revealing my fear, go figure). That being said, after reading snippets of his work that have surfaced from my Googling I'm not actually certain that his work is actually Wuxia the way that Chinese people define it. His stories seem to be more around Chinese mythology, rather than magical realism. For example, no monsters exist in Wuxia; authors instead use as much hand-wavy science as they can to justify their magic. A great example of hand-wavy science is how wuxia martial artists fly -- they are trained to carry more than their weight regularly, and then when that extra weight is removed they suddenly are creating enough force to fly. Hand wavy science, but an attempt at science nonetheless. Tone is also important -- wuxia novels are funny, yes, but ultimately serious and about saving the world on some level.

But I think the most important and key differentiator is what exactly a wuxia martial artist is. In Chinese literature, to practice wuxia is to be a Renaissance man. You learn how to fight by intensely studying poetry. The best wuxia fighters fight via musical instruments because of how scholarly they are. The reason why "wuxia" as a term is so hard to translate is because its fundamentally about how the pursuit of the physical and the mental are indistinguishable. One must be cultured, intelligent, loyal, and well-read in order to learn the greatest martial arts. Even though wuxia stories cover grand, mythological tales, they are fundamentally about what it means to be a Chinese Renaissance Man. JY works go a step further -- they are also about how to live by a moral code in an amoral world. Wuxia works also tend to be secular for a number of reasons -- mostly JY's personal political leanings and his own distaste for organized groups of any kind.

I wrote a lot about something I ultimately know very little about :P But I am interested in learning more about Barry Hughart -- I definitely think there are ways for white men to write non-white literature appropriately and googling "Barry Hughart cultural appropriation" doesn't really surface anything alarming, so I think that's a good sign. I left another comment further down about how to get into JY now as a westerner. Please do! I would love to see more people enjoy his work.

I have been burned by 1 and 3 more than once.

Also I have lots of ideas which actually have no real demand, like to list cheap, remote, nice and quiet, organic locations in Asia yet suitable for remote working and long-term stay, like Sikkim or Nepal or Ladakh (order of magnitude cheaper than Thai coast line). But, unfortunately, there is absolutely no demand for this kind of arrangements, because there is almost no demand for remote work in the first place.

I have found AGPLv3 useful, everything I do is under AGPLv3, if people want to use it under other terms, they can pay me for a branch under a mutually acceptable license. I will not maintain the alternatively licensed branch unless paid, and these branches after a few months are generally missing significant features.

Its a fine revenue stream for me, and in the context of what I am building and the companies that are using it, there is absolutely no reason to not use the AGPLv3 licensed master branch or releases, as I know they will never extend my software. Yet some people have an axe to grind with AGPLv3, to which I get to respond "Pay me money or fuck off". Seeing as none of them understand how to write software, they tend to pay me :P

Worst case someone extends one of my AGPLv3 projects, adding features and improving it. I'll accept a pull request with no CLA so long as the code is of decent quality.
Do you think of this as a genuine concern? Yes, in nineties some militants managed to effectively take control of the South Xinjiang with Kashgar and mop the floor with PLA for a few months. PLA can only blame itself for letting itself fail so spectacularly.

Few bombings a year? That is not enough to normally set off reaction of a district police office, let alone on a nation level. Chinese oligarchs are waging wars on streets of Chinese cities against each others with private armies, blowing each others up every day, and the party does nothing about that.

Where I'm leading here?: the real reason for the recent crackdown.

Today, the party is being ran by a generation of people with no nerve or temper what so ever. Them pressing the, "big red button," is the only response to any issue their level of emotional and intellectual finesse avails them.

Xi himself is said to be a man with very weak personality "ready to pull out a gun" on the most minor suspicion of anybody having personal animosity with him. I want to say that for the readers to not to base your opinion of him on the popular sentiment. The popular opinion in the West have no idea who he really is, just like as with the rest of political establishment here.
This is a sad state of affairs. However, notice that once you are logged-in into gmail, you can still disable all javascript and go to https://mail.google.com/mail/h/ for a somewhat reasonable user experience.

It is best to run gmail on a separate, private browsing window, so that it does not interfere with normal web browsing (i.e., make sure that other websites such as google search cannot see that you are actually logged into gmail).
