Does WooCommerce Have a Thank You Page?
It's super common for women in your age range to be somewhat lonely (although usually they have kids, but they will be grown kids who are off feeling invincible). Do you date at all? Even if it doesn't work out with some it could be a way to meet potential friends?
I remember once someone saying something along the lines of (and I'm paraphrasing) "Amazon aren't the cheapest retailer out there, but they want you to believe they are".

It's a similar situation with AWS. They're not /cheap,/ and they're not /cheaper/ than a lot of alternatives. The advantage of AWS is flexibility and depth of tooling, not price, though a lot of people are under the general impression that "it's cheaper on AWS".
The fundamental truth I've seen is that DevOps (the practices, not the role) is anti-Taylorist organizational design when most corporations are run completely opposite to that. The successes happen only when from top-down the organization has come to the sober realization that they really need to break down barriers and enable individuals in addition to hiring those capable of working across multiple functions (most people used to being coddled with purely focused work and using managers as shields and go-betweens don't work out well in this transition). Most organizations only want to give people just enough to be productive to a certain capacity not just because of least access principles in security but also because of the cargo cult of manager worship that is antithetical to both Agile and DevOps.

Unfortunately, I've also seen plenty of consulting firms selling "Devops Solutions" and productizing everything because their customers look at everything as products and solutions that they acquire and presume that their culture is fine as-is. While I don't doubt that these firms make plenty of money I don't think the practice will be viable long-term because the problems are entirely due to culture rather than tools or even people.
I don’t think your comment is fair mostly because the sysadmin-developer rarely gets to inject aesthetics into their work. When they do, it’s not targeted at end users it’s targeted at other developers.

However let me offer a counter anecdote: I love the BSD man pages. Do I think BSD is objectively better than other systems? That’s debatable. But I sure do appreciate the meticulous care with which the BSD manual is maintained. I don’t remember names off the top of my head but I always read the authors section of a BSD man page.

If you’re really seeking end user appreciation I’d suggest you try your hand in a relatively more creative context, like writing a user interface. The amount that people care matters enough that a program with fewer features, or that is less stable, or inferior on an “objective” technical level, but with a snazzier, more refined, UI will often be preferred to a technically superior one by users.
Why run a container? What value does that abstraction provide here?

To my mind this completely negates any value proposition of the container. The only thing missing, at face value, is something as straightforward as the Dockerfile for building base images. I imagine that shouldn't be hard using things like guestfish etc in guestfstools.
It is not immaterial. Projects are run by human beings, and economics does not cease to exist once a computer is involved. People's expectations were out of line for what they were paying.

I also think the words "community" and "trust" are being badly abused here. A community is a relationship of mutuality. Most of the people affected here never did a thing. They were leeches, not participants. A healthy community would have looked at the guy laboring overtime for free and said, "Hey, buddy, let's split that load up." And most of the people who benefited from his work didn't even know his name. They didn't trust him; they trusted the system.

He owed those people nothing. He gave them more than that: a good-faith effort to find a new maintainer.
This was actually an idea proposed by RMS probably 20 years ago, but I think he was talking about music. Essentially it's the busking model. The key is making that small donation extremely easy to give. And also to get big corporations to press that button.
I disagree, i think the real problem is not that the EULA's are vague or too long, but that often times people dont have any other choice but to use that software/service, and are forced to accept the EULA because of it.

It's been a while since I've actually written haskell, but a lot of this is about monads, both Monad and monad transformers, both of which Rust doesn't have.

> The broken fail function

We don't have this.

> The problem with Error

Our Error trait (typeclass in haskell terms) had a "description" method that had some issues, so we've deprecated it and provided a default impl. We expect errors to implement a similar type signature, but with the Display/Debug traits, not some sort of fromString trait.

> The proper Monad Either instance

not applicable

> Either for arbitrary error types

Rust's Result already works for arbitrary error types; you don't have to actually implement Error for them, so this is a non-issue.
Lambdas are not functional programming
I just can't fathom why AWS is so popular given its high mental overhead. Every other VPS provider is like, "Look! It's a server with local storage and memory and CPUs. It comes with this much bandwidth and this much storage. If you pay us you can have it!" AWS: "Hold my beer."

EDIT: I get it, I realize that the value of AWS is in the whole basket of services you can use, not just EC2, but damn do they make it unpleasant. If DigitalOcean gets more enterprise-serious and adds more hosted services, AWS really better watch out.

What is your reference that glyphosate is more toxic to insects than other pesticides?

Absolutely. It's interesting how it engrained itself in the human psyche, even after almost three decades have passed.
The "NK" part of your "DINK" is probably influencing your decision on whether it's a worthy decision to buy a home.

As a "DI3K", a house makes a ton of sense. We need space, we need a place for five people to live, and we need a house in an area where the schools are going to be great for the next 18 years. We don't need mobility as far as relocation goes, because it just doesn't make sense in our life choices right now. I mean, it's certainly possible, but I've seen second-hand what moving from town to town every 6 months does to a 7-year-old.

I'm not mad that our property (as far from the coasts as possible) has increased in value ~$50-80K, either.

Don't forget shorter mortgage commitments are available (And a much better deal when you can swing them).
Yes, neutron activation is an issue that needs to be handled safely. But the isotopes produced this way tend to be short-lived, with half lives around a decade. Not the same challenge of storing radioactive waste on geological timescales.

"On an unrelated note, when people call Apple a monopoly because the only way that you can reach IOS users is via the App Store, I always say how is that different than the console makers[1]? "

Phones have become more than just an electronic device, just like the internet, water, power, in a way. Now I'm not saying you can't live without a phone, just that it's difficult and the general feel is that you must have a cell phone to function in society. So with that mindset not being able to install any app does have some merit.

Everyone "needs" a phone, not everyone "needs" an xbox.

Taking my comment with a grain of salt though, I think that's a generalization but I think that might be why people want iPhones more open over xbox's.
You are only telling part of the story here.
What about the connect in the UI? mapStateToProps is called every single time the store is updated unless you provide a areStatesEqual function in each component you intend to connect to the store. This seems much more complicated that it should be.
I have a react native app that receives market data quotes in real time and I have used redux to store all those market data updates along other data and now I regret it.
If I had stored the data in POJOs and implement a very basic implementation of observer pattern would not only be more performant than would have been easier to implement. To connect the POJOs to the UI, I would only have created a smart component that connected to it and that's it. No redux, redux-sagas, areStatesEqual, mapStateToProps, reselect and all that.
What do you think?
I mean, this is a forum filled with web developers...

If the cost-benefit analysis comes out that far in the red, Google could just bail, and what would the EU regulatory agencies do? Seizing a few office complexes and a data center or two isn't going to amount to much in the way of actual value. It's not like Google is an old-time capital-intensive manufacturing or resource-extraction company.
Right, because people don’t actually want to pay for anything.
FWIW, part of why Try has taken a really long time to stabilize is that there's not a ton of pressure, having it for Result was about 80% of the power, Option about 10% more.

People are selfish and wish to capitalize on the viral nature of reuse. So they make up "legal rights" to protect their ability to out gain you even after they're long dead.
Of course it wasn't necessary, strictly speaking. An invasion may have worked (at probably an even greater loss of life). Waiting things out a while longer might have worked as well, but again may have resulted in more loss of life due to the ongoing blockade.

What we do know as a fact - which seems to be glossed over by a lot of people - is that the Emperor specifically mentioned the bomb in his surrender speech as one of the reasons why they were surrendering.

I often wonder why, in this age of reboots and cinematic universes, no one has mined this series, and the Hardy Boys for material. Iirc, there was a tv series for each in the '70s.

Related; there was some really great writing for television back then; Circus Boy and The Rifleman are two examples.

This is silly, but in some ways the design and flaws of major news and content sites is a topic more relevant/interesting to a discussion forum for hackers than ongoing environmental collapse is.

Sure, the latter is a much bigger deal and affects hackers as much as it affects all life on Earth.

But doctors talk about medicine and care. Teachers talk about education and learning. Hackers talk about design, UX, etc.

We should all be talking about ecosystem collapse. Yet it's not a thing we interact with every day (yet), whereas NY Times' paywall is.

Human brains are lousy at risk, it's true.

What? When have you ever been forced to use software X? Even with google, msft, apple, etc. you can always just not use their products. It might be inconvenient for you i.e. you have to buy a real map to figure out how to get from A to B but that's completely different than forced coercion.
I get the impression ATM that copyright infringement is legal as long as nobody complains. When one person complains or files a DMCA takedown notice, no problem, it gets taken down. It needs to be a big company's documents - like Elsevier or (in the Bittorrent era) music publishers - before a major legal action is undertaken to take a site offline.

TL;DR it's not a crime if nobody complains. Now that someone complained though, things might end up badly for the owner.
I strongly recommend everybody to read "The Age Of Access: The New Culture of Hypercapitalism, Where All of Life is a Paid-For Experience" written by Jeremy Rifkin in the year 2000 (!) when his theory was looking like a sci-fi plot or an ante litteram Black Mirror episode.

There's recent reporting that Glyphosate affects insect gut bacteria.

I think the larger point being, the more chemicals we insert into the environment without a holistic understanding of their interactions and impact on various ecosystems, the more we run the risk of collateral damage.
I am very much looking forward to CloudFlare registrar.

For the last 15 years, I have run OpenDomain - a project that gives domains to OpenSource projects for Free. I have used almost every registrar and I am actually a sub-registrar through TuCows and SrsPlus where I can be a domain reseller.
I used togo to those clubs back in the day. The lines were very long or sometimes there was a HUGE crowd. The drag queens would then "pick" who was worthy of getting in and who is "not" worthy. it was all about who is gonna spend money and who is not gonna spend money inside. There was also a guest list with nobody on it. The larger the crowd / longer the line the greater the demand to get into the club and it made it feel like the club was PACKED with girls or people or celebs. And we HAD to get in! as did everyone else. They would let girls in with no problem and if you came with a group of guys you would have to wait unless our friend was working at the door then we'd get in with no problem. One time we went out and the Drag queen at the door said to my friend " Go do your laundry" to mean, your not dressed to come in this club tonight.Ha ha.
Just to note, that print here refers mostly to advertising and corporate brochures.

We do have magazines and merchandise for some franchises, but as far as I know, those were secondary when it came to BBC Reith/Reith Sans. TV & Online are big, and especially when it comes to legibility across resolutions and encoding systems (PAL/NTSC/SD/Pixel Ratios/HD/4K/Mobile/High-DPI..)
I personally think the 3.5mm TRS jack is more reliable than Bluetooth :) but I would like to comment that this is not the most durable jack out there, so the relative fragility of 3.5mm also is a solvable problem.

The music industry standard for instrument cables is 1/4" TS for unbalanced instrument audio, 1/4" TRS for a few things like monitoring headphones, and XLR cables for most everything else. XLR in particular is a very durable system, unless you get a very badly made XLR cable or jack I would never call this system "fragile". Even 1/4" is quite an improvement durability wise over 3.5mm.

XLR is not exactly a very portable jack, but a mini-XLR jack does exist -- not as portable as TRS 3.5mm, of course. But if increasing jack durability is such a concern on a more portable device, this connector is an option. Same with using 1/4" TRS, this is a connector which has the advantage of having more headphone options with this option built in (most headphones marketed for studios should be 1/4" TRS or at least have that option).

None of the above are as portable as 3.5mm and I think this connector is "durable enough" to where I doubt it is such a priority for most phone consumers to give up some phone thickness for better durability. But in professional music applications there is a reason why 3.5mm is relatively rare.
To my understanding, the best guess for tropical biomass loss is the change in temperature. Bugs can't tolerate temperatures beyond a very specific region to which they are adapted to.

That's not to say agricultural chemicals would not play a role in other geographic regions.

I don't like this X-Salary rule. It assumes no other large notes, which is more of what mortgage underwriters are caring about (debt-to-income ratios).

Not having two student loan payments and a couple unnecessarily-high car payments (a couple well-to-do millennials surely make possible) could certainly push your mortgage affordability much higher than someone straddle with that debt (but completely able to pay and maintain it).
> How are any of the other platform providers any different?

One thing that comes to mind is that a phone is much more personal, carries much more personal data (health data, banking, etc.), and it's something you often interact with the entire day, every day.

So, with Apple closing down the iOS system (for example you cannot inspect/debug ios apps like you can do with apps on a laptop), you end up having less transparency and less control over what apps do with your personal data.

That really is accurate to all animal (humans notwithstanding) populations.

Personal anecdote:

I live in the Great Lakes region. Every spring Fish Flys [1] would swarm over every exterior surface and especially congregate near light sources.
Some years were worse then others, and one particularly bad year I had to take a snow-shovel to clear the gas-station I worked at because the cars (and us workers) were slipping on the carpet that their bodies made. The piled-mass of bodies was as big as a snow-bank.

And other years would pass and I would hardly notice that the 'season' had come & gone.

I'd say it's mostly a pain because it interfaces with parts of the system that you only touch a few times a year if it's working correctly, but yet is totally outside of your domain expertise. Nobody works with directly Ansible or EC2 instances enough to be an expert at it.

Like how every time I need to renew a SSL cert, I need to reread the man pages for how to make certs and cert requests. You'd think a replicable procedure could be documented, but there's just enough variables so that it's slightly different every time.
Save yourself first.
> it's not hard to scan through a program line-by-line asking yourself "what would happen if an exception were thrown at this point?"

I once implemented a C++ class where some member functions implemented the strong exception safety guarantee. I can tell you, yes it really is that hard. Even when you know certain variables are pointers and can't throw, you are tiptoeing around on razorblades.

At my day job we use exceptions in Java a lot, and it's a good abstraction for rolling back database transactions. But for non-transactional code it isn't the best.
I absolutely agree from a consumer perspective. From the developer side though I'm certain that there are some app store policies dev's have to comply with that benefit neither consumer nor developer and are solely in Apple's interest.

I guess it's just interesting to me because Apple is both the market and the market regulator here. Continuing with my stock exchange analogy Apple plays the role of NYSE and the SEC. The nature of wearing both hats means there are going to be conflicts of interest and Apple has a fiduciary duty to their shareholders, not to their consumers. I see both sides but struggle to see a solution that doesn't leave app store customers worse off.

I took what I see as a moderate position lightly criticizing his tone, but because you're going way farther than that and asserting that he can be as much of a jerk as he wants, let's address that argument.

I think it's nonsense. Rich is probably among the most brilliant software engineers on the planet but that has no bearing whatsoever on whether he needs to be polite and show human empathy and decency like everyone else does. You can be toxic and hostile and people will put up with it if you're useful enough (c.f. Linus) but we shouldn't be lining up, comment after comment after comment, to cheer that kind of behavior on.

Again, I don't think this is a big deal. I think that his rant is just a small indiscretion and we're all human, but I'm dismayed to see such an outpouring of support for exactly the position that you're putting forward. What I'm saying isn't "nauseating PC culture" as one GitHub commenter put it; it's just not being an asshole.
Hmm let's see with some back of the envelope calculation.

Thought stream: Minimum arc length of hidden (eclipsed) section of orbit; the higher the orbit, the slower the satellite needs to travel to maintain; I don't have experience with exactly the right math, but intuition tells me that regardless of distance from Mars, the related speed means that the time to traverse that arc will be the same ... maybe we could use an atypical orbit (passing closer to the planet while hidden?) to reduce eclipsed traversal time?
Fortunately that won't be necessary. Both of us are safe. The Chinese are doing the research for us. If they don't succeed they suffered and we are not impacted.
