You should understand the framework around this whole thing, since it involves religion (ancient, fictitious or otherwise very hard to prove, very little actionable evidence, mostly based on belief), but also current laws and crimes (well documented, easy to provide evidence).

First of all when you make an accusation you have to prove it, bring actual evidence, otherwise it's slander (or blasphemy, in a religious case). Second, we're talking about religion, so take every detail (the "evidence") with a grain of salt. Third, even assuming you can use a holy book to prove your case, the accusation is not valid because the law you're using wasn't in place back then when the "crime" was committed. On the other hand a blasphemy law is in place when your crime was committed.

So although I'm as far from a religious person as it gets, I still believe people are entitled to their own religious beliefs without someone uselessly dragging them through the mud. Every religion mentions some details that could prove insulting for many people, why bring one up in particular? And if a law is in place don't break it arguing that it's unfair. Maybe fight for changing it before you break it.
Crypto fund managers are struggling to fundraise
There are some things where we don't allow democracy to work at a local level.

There are things we do allow but I think we should discuss ways too eliminate: like nimbyism and efforts to increase property taxes without fear of a population drain to unscrupulous counties/states that are waiting to pounce. I'd argue that for a resident in California, it doesn't matter when jobs go away whether it goes to China PR or to Texas if the jobs go away because of a more LAX, fast and loose labor laws or just simply corporate welfare. I don't have any answers but there are some things beyond the basics of life and liberty of individuals who belong to a protected class. Is there a good solution to this "race to the bottom" (other than a Central world government)?
It was based on that, but if I look at market share of Google Search in America [1] it goes down for quite some years already.

« Currently, the only known law enforcement client using Rekognition is the Washington County Sheriff’s Office in Oregon. (Other clients may exist, but Amazon has refused to disclose who they might be.) Worryingly, when asked by Gizmodo if they adhere to Amazon’s guidelines where this strict confidence threshold is concerned, the WCSO Public Information Officer (PIO) replied, “We do not set nor do we utilize a confidence threshold.” »

That's worrisome indeed. Understanding confidence thresholds is essential to using software like this. Thinking they don't "utilize" one means they don't understand the first thing about it.
Yeah, but that's still delivery of a sort, isn't it? GP says only delivery should be allowed. Cars that are only transporting a person and nothing else are unnecessary; that person can be transported by subway instead. Only transporting goods really requires a car.

To a science class where you can learn about solar cycles. Then stop being a shill. Only scientificly illiterate people think Co2 is an issue. The planet's climate lines up 1:1 with solar activity (go figure). Climate change is just a fear tactic used to implement global government.
I think you’re missing the point of the article. His original theses was that we aren’t good enough at estimation. And in fact much hand wringing over estimation has been done in this industry over the last 6+ decades.

Now he’s amending his opinion to state that estimation is not really the core issue. The core issue is that projects are doomed from the start by mismanagement. Issues such as: racing to catch up with a competitor (giving the s/w group an impossible deadline), or starting a project whose business value is so low that minor time and cost overruns reduce the actual value to below zero (at which point people start blame shifting to try and hold on to their jobs).
How about downloading and installing Firefox and seeing if it meets your needs? I totally understand if it doesn't, and then you should keep using chrome or safari or whatever, but I am a back end web dev and Firefox (+ edge) meet all my desktop needs.

Give it a try, you might like it.

And that'll have a lot more impact than testing cross browser regularly.
I doubt you will read this now, just wanted to say that I'll remember this comment every time my raspi2 resets due to overheating :D

Also, with "relatively well priced" do you mean "overpriced"? And with documentation you mean the stuff the users wrote on the forum (ok, they did at least try, but the real useful stuff is from the forum)?

Come on, while I realize that other SBCs have a lot of issues too, let's not forget that every iteration of the Raspberry had its issues, some of them being the usual issues found in boards from other vendors too.

If you need an example of a well built board, well documented and with amazing price, check out the CHIP from the now defunct NextThing Co. Best SBC I've ever had, for a fraction of the cost of a Raspberry.

And if you need something that you can still buy, look into the Asus Tinkerboard. Yep, it costs more but it feels like alien technology that works compared to the raspberry 3F+ (... or was it the 3D-? Hard to tell, when they are a rehash of the same stuff, even worse than the Arduino).
Just like any tech, business as usual. Like we stopped using coal derived products when the damage gets out of control. Or when we stopped massive animal husbandry when we realized it's a huge black swan of killer germs? We try to regulate the nth order effects, fix holes while new ones pop out.

No one has a scientific approach to allowing new inventions anywhere. So many chemicals being used everywhere until sometime in the future the damage is known and visible.
I'll explain:

50 years of communism in the eastern Europe countries left most of the people with no wealth as it was forbidden to own a company, unless you where co-operating with the secret police and singed a deal with them. This caused the issue that after the collapse of communism and soviet union people with wealth were communist collaborators (there were informing about non-safe people and helping throwing them into jails and sharing money with police officers). Then after communism collapsed they've created TV, media and obviously there was still TV, Radio and press which was government owned, where the same people were working. So as you can see everything is post-soviet countries is still mostly owned by communists and police informants.

I think that this article overstates the impact of all of this.
Does anyone know how this act would interact with the first amendment?

It's my understanding that the first amendment is extremely broad - if donating money can be counted as protected speech, surely 'parody' videos of politicians would also be?
> unless you print the same thing on both sides (and you shouldn’t)

Yes you should.

> Of course you can just print the same thing on both sides, but why not use the backside for something useful like a map of the space or basic agenda information?

Print the same thing (name, affiliation, etc.) on two pieces of paper facing either side, stick them in the plastic sleeve, put additional info between them. It's not that hard.
> Those funds went to the Clinton Foundation a _charity_. Sheesh

While independent investigations have concluded there was no wrongdoing, the reason above is really no defense. The Trump Foundation, for example, has shown how nonprofits can be manipulated to the benefit of the founders.

I love fully voiced dialogue in some games, if it’s done well it can really help with telling a story, but in more freeform roleplaying games it definitely detracts from the fantasy that’s playing out in my imagination as it means I can’t imprint my own feelings of what characters are feeling. MUDs were definitely the pinnacle of that for me, especially when you played with people who took their fictitious roles seriously and added freeform scenarios that weren’t hard coded into the game, through a shared acknowledgement that what other players invented became a real part of the fiction even though it wasn’t recognised by the software simulation.
I agree. The translated HN title is inaccurate. The article only goes so far as to mention two examples, so it's possible that some of the terminated employees did less egregious stuff - but based on the available data this is about more than simply voicing a political opinion.

I'd think about the german providers again if I were you.

They are forced to gather data about you as well (https://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Bundesverfassungsger...) and since the government is taking measures to further invade your privacy it's not that safe there anymore.

I've watched the changes of their laws over many years and I can tell you this: Germany is not the country of privacy love (anymore).
Given a decade or two without any changes in this development they'll very likely become like China some day.

Reminds me of the NIST codes in the cryptonomicon
In Python 3.6+, dictionaries preserve insertion order. This is done by storing the keys, values (and cached hash values) in a separate array, and the hashtable is a succinct array of indexes into this array. This results in more compact dictionaries, which are also a bit faster because of it's cache friendliness. Preserving insertion order is a happy side effect of this. This optimization can also be applied to Python sets, but it hasn't been done yet.
This and this, to the last two sentences. "Linux on the Web" (my baby) will be taking over in short order to rectify the situation (see my recent post history for more info). Been joyously hacking away on it almost nonstop since 2012. I've never felt a need or desire to work for anybody. That's all I do (when I'm not doing that thing I do when I'm out on the town).
I think this is an idea that's in the air: I pitched something similar where I work. A file which tells you information about CVEs patched, bugs fixed, features added. A list of teams affirming it passed their testing. Estimates of installation time. Opinions of necessity, urgency and difficulty.

This can, theoretically, be encoded in semver. But why go through that? I can easily publish information at a known endpoint, or bundle it with the package. Lossily compressing information because of the limits of software distribution circa 1988 is silly.

Still I find it comical that people thinks Apple keeps the moral high ground. I personally find Apples position disgusting and super hypocritical. Sure, they are the white knight that keeps you safe from other monsters, only if you avert your gaze from China. At least Google so far sticked to its decision, and hopefully keeps it that way.

The push for human fungibility on the same level as monetary fungibility is a much more recent trend, perhaps only setting aside slave societies.
Media. The fourth estate.

Currently in Hungary it's simply controlled by the governing party.

* Via the Media Authority and the public service broadcasters

* Also financially (the public service broadcasters have a budget that dwarf independent media outlets' budgets, 300M EUR vs a few millions EURs at best; plus the government subsidizes gov-friendly outlets through advertisement and public communications contracts - and they advertise their own propaganda [you know, the usual George Soros, fight Brussels, immigrants are raping everybody] )

* Through buyouts (TV2, local newspapers, etc.), consolidation ( https://www.voanews.com/a/huge-pro-government-media-conglome... ) and strict central command ( https://budapestbeacon.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/megyei... https://kep.cdn.indexvas.hu/1/0/1981/19814/198141/19814191_0... )

There are a few independent sites that try to serve the classic democratic role of oversight.

Judiciary.

That's even easier. The current government and the governing party is full of members with ties to the old Socialist/Communist era.

Oh, and don't forget, how since 1990 everyone conveniently forgot to finally grant access to the old secret police archives, or at least set up a process that can clean people holding and/or running for seats and various positions.
Here is based on what worked for me when I picked up front-end development.

1) Pick a framework you are interested in. It can be either react, vue or any other framework.

2) Try to do some beginner examples from the official guide and blogs.

3) Go through the basic concepts from official help documentation.

4) Learn Core javascript concepts (ES6, Data types, Classes, Error handling, callbacks etc)

5) Basic understanding of eco system which helps to compile, build, test etc (webpack, babel, npm, node, linting etc )

6) Learn Typescript, this will help in a long run. More devs are using Typescript as part of front-end programming.
I am not taking sides, because today's Ford Co is not saddled with Henry Ford's controversies, and both MIT and Ford are large organizations.
I don't know who is right, a jury might decide.

There is an interesting movie, "Flash of Genius," about Robert Kearns, an inventor and his interactions with Ford over the "delayed windshield wiper."

I won't reveal any details over the movie plot but there is a short scene where Kearns is lecturing his engineering students about engineering ethics, which reminds me of a documentary by PBS: "NOVA: Holocaust on Trial" (2000)

I cannot find this last movie anywhere, but <youtube> has it available. Should be mandatory viewing for engineers, but it is difficult to watch or listen to the details.

If I'm on my own time speaking as a private individual? I wouldn't say its reasonable to sack them for that.

I love that talk. Raymond Hettinger is a gem. What I took from that is the implementation does preserve order but it isn't guaranteed yet and in theory it could change.

>It's an ad hominem.

I didn't read that as a criticism at all. He was just saying that the Wasm team didn't have all the information that they would ideally have wanted to have. No idea if that's true or not, but I think you're misreading it if you take it as some kind of ad hominem attack.
Respect for the law is paramount and it's taken very seriously in death penalty cases in the US.

Same here! (except i'm using Brave instead of Chrome, it's also Chromium based and supports its extensions, without the Google tracking features.)

I don't understand why after so many years Firefox still doesn't support "pinch to zoom" on Macbooks/Laptops. For me it's such a basic feature, almost like a car without a proper steering wheel... not very smart if you want to attract more users.

At last, someone created an extension ("Multi-touch Zoom" https://github.com/haxiomic/firefox-multi-touch-zoom ), but unfortunately, it often doesn't work properly, like for example on this website...
The French title of the article in front of me states pretty much to the letter what the HN translation states. Was the HN one changed in the meantime?

The subtitle provides some info, stating that they were fired for showing a behavior that contradicts company values. Later on it says that the fired employees didn't respect their contractual obligations by instigating to block the warehouse.

To be honest I have to wonder what the balance is between freedom of speech and fulfilling your contractual obligation. I mean who's more right here? The employee who's free to state what's on their mind or the employer who's fires someone for trying to sabotage the workplace?

I don't find those much more convincing. Mostly they say the negative effect comes from missing out on physical activity (in older children).

For babies, I am not sure what to think. Who watches 1 hour of movies with their baby? Were they really able to disentangle that from all other factors (socioeconomic status and so on)?
Why would you set a precedent for not reporting vulnerabilities ? Are they stupid ? This just means "next time you find something, exploit it or just sell it to someone".

Second the choice to use Gandi.net. 3Gb included with your domain. Their spam filter isn't as good as Fastmail's, which isn't as good as Gmail's. I'm back to training my mail clients' Bayesian spam filters like it's 2006.

Mailing lists dump that response into /dev/null and my human correspondents quickly and quietly complied.
Open access was just one example.

While I'm all in all very happy with the current ethical standards, it's worth to point out that in the past science was significantly advanced by transgressing the ethical standards of the time (i.e. [1]) and it's easy to imagine botched ethics that are diametrical to scientific principles.

I stand firm that not following some ethical standard does not invalidate scientific results and consequently that OPs "dark journals" are very well possible (obviously not desirable).

Most common coroutine implementations, such as JavaScript's and Python's, are delimited or "symmetric". This means the most obvious implementation is in terms of compiler transformations in the source language. It seems out of WASM's scope to do this.

Undelimited "asymmetric" coroutines, like Lua's, could be an interesting addition. That still seems to me to be too high level a feature for a "portable assembly language" specification though.
