Have you ever looked into Lua? Lua uses their tables (hash maps) for everything. It is a prototypical language similar to Javascript and everything is a key in the table. The language provides syntactic sugar for certain accessors such as `table.x` translates to `table["x"]` to make it seem like a more traditional OOP language.

Agree that this ^ is non-ideal.

But was Medium ever the go-to platform for programming blogs?

They don't really have much feature-wise catering towards technical posts e.g., nice syntax highlighting or code embedding, runnable snippets, limited embedding support, minimal analytics offering.
I think it went through a similar transition as Quora where it was known as a place for smart people to blog, and as it grew it then attracted a bunch of users who wanted to be seen as smart

> The IP guys didn't really figure that one out until it was too late. So they won the protocol fight, but didn't get paid.

AT&T collapsed and was reborn through mergers and slapping the facade name on a new entity, ending up in the present form as another soon to be bankrupt gigantic pile of debt with zero growth.

Meanwhile all the money went to the IP world: Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Facebook, Cisco, Qualcomm, Broadcom, Samsung, etc. The IP world saw all the value gain, AT&T and Verizon - once you tally the debt, debt interest, mergers - have seen zero inflation adjusted gain in either their businesses or their stock market values in 20 years.

> AT&T and Verizon are the two biggest players in cell phones

You're incorrectly assessing where most of the money is in phones, which led you to the incorrect end conclusion about AT&T and Verizon being the ones who got paid. Apple all by itself is deriving more value from cell phones than AT&T and Verizon combined. Google search via mobile is generating ~$30 billion per year in operating income, that's more than Verizon is making from its entire mobile segment. Facebook got nearly all of its ~$24 billion in operating income over the prior four quarters from mobile.

The IP/Netheads are the only ones who actually got paid.
For salaries people would certainly have to adjust, but I think it is more likely that payments would remain in a fiat currency to remove that psychological hurdle. I can see that it may not be such a large burden though even if people were accepting payment in BTC and then revising downward based on increasing purchasing power.

Pensions and government payments would not start with commitments in a deflationary currency, and as a result, any commitments made there would be done with full appreciation of the realities of a deflationary money standard. This just means tighter credit and better fiduciary responsibility.

Consumption decreasing is a misnomer, as people are still required to live. Delayed gratification is generally a win, as it is today, and the economy doesn't tank. If it is saved or invested, it works out the same. Saved you reduce supply which benefits all other savers, who are technically getting a paper rate of return. If they can invest this with expectation of a greater rate of return (by creating value faster than that of saving) then they should do this. With enough saved funds, the risk tolerance increases. There is nno reason that doing this with money you don't have makes the scenario any better.

And the super-rich will benefit from being rich. This is not news. What is news is that they won't also benefit from seigniorage and the Lindy effect. I'd call that a win.

Onenote has a webclipper extension which works similarly.
If you want to do this without giving your data to any third party (plaid will store your data) or you have 2FA enabled on your FI accounts, try this: https://github.com/skhavari/cheddardog.

It supports a few institutions. If you're a developer, its pretty easy to add more. It generates spending and balance reports, and pretty easy to slap an app (E2E encrypted of course) or local only web UI on top of it.

> This is a claim that nobody is making. The claim that can be made is that no equivalent effort is made to include men. That is, there is more opportunity for women, but still fewer women ultimately participate.

I think we are at an impasse here. Our definitions of what it means to be denied opportunity in a field are divergent.

I was imagining systemic hurdles to participation. I don't think outreach to a community or even specific scholarships qualify as such.

> If you have had any connection to an HR department at a typical North American company in the 2010s, you would know that programs to specifically recruit men are effectively nonexistent; so it doesn't much matter what the specific measurements for the female recruitment programs are, because no matter how much or how little the investment, it is infinitely more than no investment whatsoever.

I would also posit that focusing on any particular program and claiming since it isn't accessible by all that there is unequal opportunity.

> I think we are at an impasse here. Our definitions of what it means to be denied opportunity in a field are divergent.

I haven't talked about anyone being "denied" opportunity. The vast majority of all people have some opportunity. The unequal part is that more opportunity is extended to some, not that all opportunity is denied to others.

The inequity would not be so much my problem if it didn't mess with the priorities of a functioning business or other organization. If I send my money to a non-profit, I want them to be effective; if they spend resources on discriminatory programs, they will inevitably be less effective than if they had run those programs without arbitrary discrimination.

> Do you object to the myriad of scholarships that are only available to specific ethnicities?

Yes, and those are under tremendous scrutiny over the last couple years, particularly Harvard's treatment of East Asian applicants. I think MLK had the right general premise with his "multiracial army of the poor".

I went to university ~'94, and we were certainly told in no uncertain terms that we were expected to cite anything we copied, code not an exception.

I don't think it means if you call SDL_CreateWindow, if that's what you mean with "on a certain line of code", but if you were to for example implement a window creation function by copying the contents of SDL_CreateWindow and adapting it.

EDIT: Citing everything is extra important when working on projects for courses, because even when its overzealous in terms of what is legal the point of doing the work is to show that you understand the concepts properly, and then its important for whomever going through your code to be able to tell which bits you actually worked on.

You might find using mkcert to be even easier than generating self-signed certificates :) and when it's time to test with a real hostname, it's just a matter of adding a line to /etc/hosts and rerunning mkcert!
I'd be surprised if that is being effected by this shut down. The Defense budget was passed and the Department of Defense isn't shut down this time. Also National Guard units are typically funded by the state and not the federal government.

MacOS has arguably been more secure then ChromeOS, maybe even Windows.

If an echo would require 114Mbps, it would barely work for any household, since internet with that speed is far from common. The real required bandwidth should be in the region that is required for transmitting a bit of audio (< 10mbps), and only if audio is active.
Hopefully it isn't just about cellphones, though that was a big one. There are tons of sectors waiting to be disrupted and markets yet to be created.

No one knew they wanted an iMac, iPod, or an iPad. Apple created those markets. meanwhile after Jobs, the Apple Watch isn't doing that well. iPod sold more units in one year than the entire history of Apple Watch. The home pod is a wash. Beyond that, there are no Apple hardware success stories. I think that's because Jobs took huge risks, had huge vision and put huge pressure on staff and the tech and media industries. No one is doing that anymore. except Elon Musk

800k middle class people not getting a paycheck is actually a pretty sizable hit to the economy. The average federal salary is a bit over $80k. Rounding down, that's about $3000 in the average federal paycheck. So you're looking at around $2.4 billion taken out of the economy over the past couple weeks (their second missed paycheck is coming up on Friday, so double that).
~5.8k? Maybe pretax, my month to month is more like 3.5k after taxes, insurance, 401k, and other withholdings. I've paid off my CC debt, no student loans, no alimony or child support. I have a car loan of about $500 a month for $20k that I am currently aggressively paying off @ $1000 a month. But what I was approved for was before I got the car. I do not have a down payment though, the rent here takes up half my pay check.
If violence worked, the drug war would be over because people would not take drugs.

Will it work inside a Docker container and my browser in my bare metal?
A bit tangential but, It will be interesting to see what happens this time because, unlike in the past, congress passed the Defense portion of the budget for the full year so the military (and civilians that work for the Department of Defense) aren't effected by this shutdown.

My bet is that it makes it more likely that this could drag out much longer because Trump's base views it as a win - win. If the Democrats cave they get their wall. If they don't then all those departments that they want to eliminate are closed down while this drags on. Either way they are getting something they want so they have no reason to compromise.

Funnily the Lichess blog post about their algorithm links to my article. Those guys are clearly much smarter than me - they jump straight to the optimal scheme without the painstaking exposition (and thinking) I needed :-) Basically about 2 bits per move is the best you can hope for, with aggressive and slow compression.

You've obviously not been in a position like this before, so let me share a thought. It was really difficult for the author to admit these things. She didn't paint herself in a positive light. You were treated to raw honesty in a way that is ever more rare in a society where our words can haunt us for decades. And you react, not by appreciating this gesture, but by judging it, and from a wildly underinformed perspective.

It's ok not to have empathy for situations you haven't been in, but I recommend you handle it by asking and seeking to learn. Not to say you don't have some valid thoughts in there, but man, you are missing out on a ton of unspoken context.
Not to mention that it drives your users away and reduces your conversion rate by showing them a big full-screen banner in front of your posts every single time they visit the site unless they sign up for Medium themselves. Who wants to have to log in just to read some blogs?

And then there's the lack of RSS feed, so I have to actually visit each individual blog to see if there are updates instead of having them dropped nicely in my inbox with the rest of my morning read.

Medium is a garbage place for readers and content producers: please stay away from it.
As long as you run "mkcert -install" where the client/browser runs, you can use the certificates it generates in whatever deployment you like. If instead you want to run it 100% inside Docker, but your browser is outside, you'll have to manually install the root from "mkcert -CAROOT".

Those are nice features. You absolutely shouldn't have to send you voice over the internet and give up all of your privacy just to make these work. Does it work when your internet goes out?

Socialism is a broad term that includes two main branches; state communism, which emphasizes a planned economy, and anarchism, which emphasizes fighting any kind of heirarchy including state power. In an anarchist world all decisions would be made on the local level wherever possible and businesses would be run democratically by their workers.

Anarchists see anarchism as the skill of organizing and working without having people simply follow orders, which if you think about your private life you probably do it all the time. But at work you do what you’re told, which is in our view a gross assault on your personal integrity.

In the anarchist view if there is a large power differential between two people there is simply no way for them to deal fairly with one another. A legal system is just a band-aid. Hoping for nicer rulers is delusional. The solution is that nobody should have that kind of power in the first place. This extends to male power over women and white supremacy as well.

But it’s still considered a branch of socialism, associated with the writings of Bakunin and Kropotkin.
Not in this context. Persistent here means "stable".
It is like having a versioned database; any reads of that version are stable. Once a version is created, it cannot be written to. All further additions create newer versions, but those changes are not visible via a handle to an earlier version.

Tricks to Grow Your Career
Coming up with a response to this one was harder than I expected. The calendar-based release cycle you describe is pretty different from what is practiced today.

Although, if you change the time scales, maybe not so much: Kernels are released on a fairly-predictable cadence now, and patches come in (to the mailing list and maintainer trees) almost constantly. So, if this is as simple as extending timescales, that leads down to an impossible debate: What changes count as minor/major/patches? For example, some would say that adding a driver is just a patch (as it doesn't change other parts of the kernel); some would say that it is major (because it adds new functionality).

There's also the human element: If someone has something to contribute, they'll want discussion to start on it sooner rather than later. Also, rolling lots of major changes into a big release may make it hard to tease out bugs—and performance regressions—as the just-released major version makes its way down to individual distributions.

So in this case, I think the best think for your needs would be to ignore upstream kernels, and instead rely on a distro kernel: Pick whichever distro you think does kernels the best, and which uses a time-based release schedule, and use their kernel.

Or, get an LWN subscription, and keep an eye out for their regular "What's new in this kernel" articles.

And those employees are doing a rather poor job on the AI side of things. Hardware itself is OK, it hears me better than its Google counterpart thanks to the phased microphone array. But both speech recognition and natural language understanding are piss poor and other than ordering stuff from Amazon and setting the time it's not useful for much, nor does it understand me in a sufficiently high percentage of interactions, nor is it in any way "conversational", the way Google Home is. Alexa app is also lackluster and feels like it's held together by duct tape, like all other Amazon apps.

For me the quality of AI in this case outweighs the creep factor of Google. FWIW, I replaced my Echo with a Google Home Mini.
