You're not wrong, but the fact remains that Facebook and Zuckerberg should be accountable to the nations in which they operate. Parliamentary Committees are one of the mechanisms the UK uses to investigate and hold organizations and people to account. By refusing to appear, he encourages nations to use other powers to discover information, which we saw earlier in the week when documents from Six4Three were siezed by Parliament.

It's important that it's Zuckerberg because the buck stops with him. When other executives appear they can just pass the parcel up or down the heirachy or claim they have no knowledge of what they are being asked about.
The thing is, the WAI-ARIA page works well as a reference, but not as an onboarding process. You have to develop your ARIA chops elsewhere and then come back to the document to learn the finer points of each role. And roughly half of the document will never be useful, and slightly more of it is overshadowed with native HTML5 tags.

I updated my comment with a sample project with some very basic accessiblity and aria roles, if you feel like giving me some pointers or critique.
The Frightening Power of Ransomware Done Right
True that! But many companies prefer active Github profiles than inactive with zero contributions.

Hell i work for a car manufacturer with thousands of devs. Most of them have not heard from anything since early 00s Perl, PHP and Java. And they have not moved. Everything newer is "Startup stuff, we live in the real world here"
[2] is similarly vague, [...] isn't "contact
with the instructor" significant?

Well, they did compare online courses.

The article doesn't detail how their online courses are structured, but when I've done free udacity/coursera/edx courses, contact with the instructor has been nonexistent.

Seems to me it'd be very difficult to design a test to investigate this that wouldn't have some valid methodological criticisms. Even if you had lecturers, delivering online lectures with fake names, using voice-changing software and online-only office hours, you could still criticise that as being unrepresentative of real college lecturing, and having confounding factors if the courses ran at different schools, years, or times.
Man, you are never supposed to bet against black :)
It also contained passwords and such though so he could've done worse.
For me the biggest stumbling block is always the inconsistency in the standard library of function calls.

Without an IDE, I'd be constantly looking up function names and parameter order.

Also, knowing which functions return a result and which modify a passed parameter is also problematic.

I wonder if a case couldn't be made for creating a new "standard library" that would operate alongside the existing one (for backwards compatibility).. A bit like mysql and mysqli....

This is precisely what some private schools in Germany do (yes, there are a few of those).

If ebay doesn't offer an award, doesn't e.g. google offer one? iirc they have a bug bounty program for stuff that they don't own as well.
It's CSS-only, so works just fine with NoScript. That's kind of unexpected, compared to other modern web frameworks. Though using <i> tag for icons feels weird.
If ebay weren't such a fundamentally terrible company I'm sure they would. This doesn't surprise me based on the companies culture generally. They're always trying to stiff people out of money, their platform is full of scammers, and their fees are ridiculous.
I know of a few places with schemes to incentive people to move to dying towns, in the regions bordering with Northern Appennini mountains and in the deep South. The catch is that these towns are dying for a reason: they are far from everything, there are no local jobs (or rather, no jobs most people would do - being a farmer in 2018 is unappealing), and the housing stock is often crumbling and centuries-old. The kids go to school in cities and never go back, so you’re left with a bunch of oldies. Do not expect any help from the State, but do expect hindrance, especially in building matters - Italian laws on paper are the best in the world, but in practice, compliance is hell.

Totally disagree. You have to understand how NFS caching effects your application and what kind of performance and security/availability you need. At that point you can make NFS work for you. You also have to make good decisions about how you implement. This type of use case (long open file waits with concurrent access) are a nightmare with any shared filesystem. Most approaches dealing with possibly stale content are shoulder shrugs.
regarding point 3: In 2018, for an actor model on the BEAM, it is really easy to justify not being statically type. For a single simple reason.

The specific issue with Mayotte is that the other half of the archipelago has chosen to remain independent [1].

So on a very small territory you have a third world country, Comoros, and a piece of the European Union, where, even if it is not on par with continental Europe, has a much higher quality of life.

So there is a quite large influx of immigrants from Comoros, and this is hard to manage for such a small island.

[1] In 1974, France organized a referendum for self-determination in the archipelago in which the population except in Mayotte voted overwhelmingly in favour of independence. Following the unilateral declaration of independence in 1975, France maintained sovereignty over Mayotte. The three remaining islands formed the Etat Comorian, which later became the Federal Islamic Republic of the Comoro Islands.

> The point of private methods is to prevent what other code can call them. However, in PHP, you also cannot override private methods in a subclass. This is especially important when, for example, trying to build mocks in unit tests.

You may not be testing the right things if you have to override your methods just for your tests.
Two ways how autonomous cars' software work
The only reason node_modules is there in the repo is because I have hosted the website on github (via github pages) no personal server. And github pages doesn't support `npm install` if you know what I mean. So I need to have all the files in the repo for github to serve my website.

If you have a personal server then you do not need node_modules folder in your repo. You can just do `npm install` in your server.

Of course it is. It’s not a good thing - it’s essentially killed any possibility of a capability-oriented desktop OS for a number of years, for a start. But it’s the state of things - if someone can’t run at least most of their software on a new system, it’s a massive barrier to adoption.

The reason Android and iOS got away with it was that nobody was really running important software on their phones in the first place, so it was a brand new capability that didn’t need to be compatible with anything.
its not that you dont have time to contr. to OS, its just not an interest. and thats completely fine.

the whole point is having some creative outlet so you dont go bonkers mad.

those who controbute do it because its their idea of fun (or by now, soul-killing-duty)

The answer is the same as the one 3-5 years ago. The only main difference today is that almost everybody knows about cryptocurrencies now. More adoption, more regulations, more projects, etc.

Really, nothing as changed in terms of the future and potential of crypto, just a lot of positive things happened inbetween.

Flask Security isn't my work, that would be Matt Wright [1], though coincidentally I did link to an article by Matt on here a few days ago.

UK: when I was involved with teacher training at a local university, I had to act as placement tutor for around 15 training teachers - all graduates with good UK first degrees in a range of subjects. I had to observe each of the training teachers half a dozen times, and that process included checking the planning of their lessons (before the lesson!), providing feedback on the lesson itself and identifying issues to work on for the next lesson. Each training teacher had a placement mentor as well whose classes the training teacher taught under supervision initially. I was also responsible for supporting the placement mentor in the mentoring role.

Everything got recorded in an online system - the training teachers did their reflective writing &c and I read their blog posts (private blogs!) and tried to support. Managers at the University (relevant ones) could access the blogs and help out with any more serious issues. I had direct contact with the mentors as well in case they had issues to discuss.

Probably the hardest teaching job I did in a 30 year career. But almost all of the training teachers are working in local colleges and schools.
From your fox news link:

"On Thursday, officials revealed that in seven of 102 cases involving children under 5 separated from their guardians, the adult was determined not to actually be the parent."

So ok, you're only slandering ~95% of those 102. If you don't like the term "slander" how about "generalisation" or "prejudice".

Forgive me if these words have negative connotations, or "trigger feelings" - but what term would you use, to describe declaring 100% of a group to have attributes that only apply to - by your very own research - 5% of that group?

I don't think the average case for new programmers looking to hack something is to start out building a solar powered aquafarm. It's better to teach the fundamentals first, which are easy enough to pick up from Javascript. Most programming courses start with something easy like Java, Python or Pascal for exactly this reason. Then later if they want to complete a more advanced project, they can pick up low level coding - it's not much of a leap, despite how fawny and melodramatic people get over coding in C/assembly/whatever.

> You can get paid directly in Bitcoin for goods and services.

While I do understand why this is valuable, no government accepts taxes to be paid in Bitcoin (nor do banks give out loans in Bitcoin). As a result, everyone will need to convert some of their Bitcoin to fiat eventually, allowing for de-anonymisation. Not to mention that basically nobody gets paid in Bitcoin (personally there's no way I would accept my wage be paid in a currency that is that volatile).

> With fiat, there is no way to do digital transactions without attaching your name and address.

Taler is a system that can work on any medium of exchange (fiat, cryptocurrency, sheep, whatever) and doesn't attach your name and address to all transactions.
TikZ in LaTeX is pretty cool for doing all kinds of diagrams/graphics. From simple block diagrams to fancy stuff[0] There's an excellent long manual widely available online as a PDF, and a lot of packages. TikZ is pretty horrible as a programming language (e.g. variables and loops are fiddly and verbose), but you can define your own commands in LaTeX and use those in TikZ, and so make a simple command for any shape (w. label/style) you need repeatedly.

The Berlin public transport system was running perfectly fine until it was privatized.
Now the infrastructure is starting to degrade, it's gotten less punctual by objective metrics and it has also gotten much more expensive. The new owners are basically just milking the ever living hell out of it because they know they can.

It's gotten so bad there's now a lot of talk that it should be nationalized again.

It would be quite easy to check the rsvp code in appscript.
E.g. have a sheet with all the guests, and give a random number (rsvp code) to each guest.
Then on each rsvp request you could check whether that rsvp code exists in the code column.
If yes: you'll add the answer to that row.
If no: return an error.
This is nice that it in theory removes the need for the OpenSSL exception, except that Apache 2.0 is still incompatible with GPLv2 so many projects will still need the OpenSSL exception. I wonder whether the common OpenSSL exception wording will cause problems with older projects that cannot update their exception (in particular the "modified versions with the same license as OpenSSL" section).
You're welcome. Hope it helps!
That is true. But some other models of concurrency (e.g. golang channels) _do admit_ static typing. This is a weakness of actor model adopted in BEAM.

Its a tradeoff -- do you go with untyped BEAM concurrency or typed concurrency like in golang.

According to the official U.S. standpoint. According to others Japan was already on the verge of collapse - supply chains broken, morale very low and all their allies were surrendering.

Its very much possible the Japan would have surrendered a few months later anyway if the US does keeps up the sea blockade and does a few more normal bombing runs.

Symbian and J2ME phones were quite popular in Europe and Asia, lacking POSIX compatibility wasn't an issue. In fact, the PIPS library for Symbian was only introduced after the decision to buy Qt.

You also forgot about ChromeOS, which I bet hardly anyone on the US school system cares about POSIX.

Or the webOS running on LG televisions nowadays.

FreeRTOS, mbed and IncludeOS aren't POSIX as well.

Regarding Fuchsia, there is already support for ISO C, ISO C++, Rust, Go, Dart/Flutter, with Java/Android on the horizon.

So I doubt Fuchsia will miss POSIX that much.
I dislike Google's data slurping practices, and moved away from Gmail and other of their services years ago due to mistrust, but I think that was just an honest documentation bug.

As a developer, I could very well see myself making that mistake; being embedded in the context, it's easy to miss how it will be read by someone else.

Yeah you shouldnt override any existing code when doing unit testing, only updating properties if anything... Otherwise you are taking the code beyond its scope, if you need output from a method to be something specific... Just set the variable you are storing that methods return value into to what you need that output to be.

Is there a live component showcase for your project? Just from the source code I see some requirements [0] not being followed:

* The element with role button has aria-haspopup set to either menu or true.

* When the menu is displayed, the element with role button has aria-expanded set to true. When the menu is hidden, it is recommended that aria-expanded is not present. If aria-expanded is specified when the menu is hidden, it is set to false.

I'd also use a native "button" instead of "div role=button". It's cumbersome to (un)style buttons, but you lose a lot of built-in functionality with a custom component, which you need to care for.

At GitLab we really care about our culture and core values [1]. As freddie said below: "Start doing it, celebrate it, reward it". If you are not sure how to make the first move, I would like to say that transparency is what really pushes everyone forward.

Start iterating on transparency, it may be hard but you will see the great results and it will make everyone around collaborate much more.

You probably heard of the event [2] which occurred almost 2 years ago - people are still talking about it and we are really happy and impressed to see everyone, including us, learning from that experience.

I hope this non-technical suggestion will help you to think about a solution to your question. If your team is not used to this kind of openness, eventually they will like the positive feedback from the community (we see that as a small iteration :-)). A comment section at [2] may be the extra source of motivation.

Have a nice day,

This is looking very nice, can't wait to try it out. But I feel it's a missed opportunity to not provide some simple examples [1], as well as a benchmark to quickly estimate the amount of flops that can be expected. The main reason to use a library like this one over pyTorch or autograd/scipy is speed, after all.

[1] The test cases can be seen as examples, obviously, but they are not written in an easily accessible form IMHO.

EDIT: Looking more closely, it seems you need to provide an explicit gradient, no autodiff included, which makes it a complete nonstarter for me.
I think that's the point. It's not anybody's fault and it's not that anyone is doing anything wrong, it's just a problem we need to take into account and try to mitigate.
